After taking down Pei Mo and the others, Li Chengqian also breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not that he must unload the mill and kill the donkey, but the current Ming can't get out of his control.

Moreover, what Pei Mo and these guys have done in the past few years has made him unacceptable.

Taking this opportunity, it is also necessary to carry out a major purge in the entire six cities of the grassland.

As for who will replace Pei Mo, Li Chengqian actually has an idea.

No, many students from Daming Academy have graduated this year, and it's time to give them a chance to show a bit or two.

Especially now that the infrastructure of the six cities of the grassland has been completed, it is not too much of a problem for them to take over at this time.

Even if something really goes wrong, Li Chengqian can solve it, and the key is that these fledgling students really need an opportunity to experience a thing or two.

As for Pei Mo and the others, Li Chengqian was actually not too worried.

Even if they have been operating in the Six Cities of the Grassland for a long time over the years?

If the people's hearts are not in them, they can't do anything.

The reason why Li Chengqian is so cautious is, to put it bluntly, that he doesn't want the officials of the Ming Dynasty to have a feeling of sadness for the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he has not punished officials on a large scale.

This is actually not good, because after a long time, everyone will gradually get used to Li Chengqian like this, once he starts to change, even if it is very subtle, everyone will not be adaptable, and even afraid.

This is actually not a good thing for the Ming system.

However, if Li Chengqian can be reasonable, everyone will not have too many ideas.

Just like this time to clean up Pei Mo and them, Li Chengqian can obviously suppress them strongly, but he still has to get real data to make them speechless.

Of course, this is also Li Chengqian's preparation for the future.

A king can be a good man, but not just a good man.

Li Chengqian has been slowly changing his style recently, and he has this signal from the beginning when he took Yi Yuanzhen.

He wants to let the Ming officials slowly adapt to this rhythm.

As for why he didn't do this before, in the final analysis, Daming was still in the employment stage, and he had to endure one or two.

Now it's naturally different.

After dealing with Pei Mo and the others, Li Chengqian looked at the people in charge of the workshop, and only after a while did he sigh and say: "It's been hard for you all these years, and it is indeed not easy to develop the six cities of the grassland to this point under the premise that all the ministries and yamen are not cooperating. ”

Li Chengqian has never had the habit of denying other people's achievements, and the clear distinction between rewards and punishments is also the biggest impression he has left on everyone, which is also the reason why everyone is willing to do things with him.

When the people in charge heard this, they immediately felt that the suffering they had suffered over the years was not a matter.

Of course, the fact that these people have been able to persist in the past few years is actually because they know Li Chengqian's character, so they have long expected today.

Speaking of which, these guys are not a good thing, in fact, if they had reported to Li Chengqian earlier, Pei Mo would not have been able to do this far.

But they hope that they will be persecuted as hard as possible, and when Li Chengqian knows, it will be even more difficult for them to see that they have not been easy these years.

"Your Highness is serious." Immediately, someone came out and said with a sincere face, "Although we are just a businessman, how to say it is also hand-picked by His Highness, although I dare not say that the matter of the loyalty of the king of food, but as long as it is explained by His Highness, do not dare to disobey." ”

Li Chengqian nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, don't hide your little thoughts, what is the situation of my Daming, you may know better than this king."

Over the years, each of your families has also had children who have entered the academy to study, speaking of which, the ones who are about to come to govern the six cities of the grassland are the seniors of the heirs of each family, do you know what to do? ”

For these businessmen, Li Chengqian felt that it was still necessary to knock one or two, otherwise they, old foxes, would really have to solve some problems for those fledgling guys, and they didn't know what the situation would be! As for saying that they dug a pit for Pei Mo and others, he didn't care about this.

Pei Mo and these people are not his descendants in the first place, what's wrong with suffering a little loss?

It just gave him an excuse to clean up the crowd.

"Your Highness, rest assured, we will naturally understand this truth."

Li Chengqian nodded, and said no more, they are all smart people.

……

At this time, in prison.

Pei Mo squatted in the corner rather frustrated.

Although Pei Mo has such and such selfish intentions, if you really want to talk about it, this is also an upright person.

At this moment, he was not thinking about whether he was in prison, but whether he had really done wrong all these years.

Gentleman, it's right to deceive him!

The reason why he has such confidence is not because he has always felt that he has never harmed the interests of Daming.

But now Li Chengqian told him that it was because of the inaction of these people that Daming lost hundreds of thousands of yuan, which made him unacceptable.

As a high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty, he naturally will not be locked up with others.

Even his subordinates are single rooms.

Li Chengqian did not deliberately detain them separately.

At this moment, someone grabbed the wooden fence of the cell with a blank face and asked, "County guard, did we really do something wrong?" ”

They are still young, although they are very selfish, but when they first enter the officialdom, they really want to show their ambitions, and they are not eroded by the officialdom, but they are really not that bad!

"yes? Are we really wrong? As soon as he heard this, someone immediately chimed in.

And Pei Mo has been speechless?

Is it wrong?

He didn't know.

If it is really as Li Chengqian said, because they caused the Ming Dynasty to suffer heavy losses, then they are really wrong, even ridiculously wrong!

After all, although today's Daming is on the right track, it still needs a lot of money and grain development.

"Hmph, that's just one side!" At this moment, someone said disdainfully, "Those businessmen are hundreds of thousands of dollars when their upper lips touch their lower lips?"

Why, how much they say is how much?

Why? ”

"That's it!" As soon as he heard this, someone immediately chimed in, "Hundreds of thousands, just a few small workshops of theirs, can they make so much?" ”

"Ridiculous ......"

This statement was instantly supported by everyone.

As scholars, they think very highly of themselves, but they really don't know how to do business.

In recent years, although the six cities of the grassland have gradually prospered by relying on commerce, they only regard commerce as a tool, but they have never seriously understood it.

Of course, this is not just them, under the premise that everything is inferior, only under the premise of high reading, if it is not really impossible, who is willing to condescend to the noble?

"County guard, do you want to think of a way?" Just when everyone was filled with righteous indignation, someone whispered, "Your Highness must have been bewitched by those despicable merchants, we can't sit still?" ”

Pei Mo, who had been silent, shook his head in disappointment when he heard this.

When these people said this just now, he was actually not idle.

Although they may not believe it all, their suppression of the merchants of the six cities of the grassland over the years must have caused certain losses to the Ming Dynasty.

At most, it's just a numerical difference.

Although he is stubborn, he does not deny it.

Looking at these stubborn guys, Pei Mo waved his hand and said, "Wrong is wrong, besides, now that we are in prison, what else can we do?" ”

"Yes." Someone immediately said, "Over the years, we have also supported a lot of people in the six cities of the grassland, and His Highness only arrested us this time, and the natives of the six cities of the grassland are not all still outside, which shows that His Highness is still afraid of them, as long as they help us build momentum outside, His Highness will probably compromise, right?" ”

"Yes, yes, that's a way." After the man finished speaking, someone else accosted him.

Pei Mo didn't say anything more, just listened to these people discuss a bunch of money, and some people even asked the jailer to spread the news outside.

At the same time, the people and businessmen of the entire six cities of the grassland learned the news that Pei Mo and others were imprisoned, but it did not cause much of a sensation.

At most, it has become a topic of conversation after dinner.

Even those who were supported by Pei Mo and the others didn't think much about it when they heard this.

Until the news of the prison came out, everyone just smiled, and then formed a team to find Li Chengqian.

What kind of support, huh......

They are grateful for the support of Pei Mo and others over the years, but they can never forget who gave them today's life!

I'm sorry, I had liver bleeding before, I was hospitalized for a while, and I was just discharged from the hospital two days ago and said that I would resume the update, but I still didn't come out, I'm really ashamed.

Rest assured, the book will not be a eunuch, and the update will begin to resume in the past two days.

Well, off topic, stay up less late, especially those who stay up late and drink less ice......
