"How can you be sure that this official can let the Huibaotong branch enter the gambling house?"

Lin Hao asked with a slight squint.

"The student used to work in the gambling house in Muxian County, so he naturally had no less contact with Huibaotong, and there was also a Shangyi Fang in the local area, and the 10th of each month was the day of the gambling house, and it was also the day of the Shangyi Fang."

"After several years of observation, the students found that the money sent to Huibaotong by Shangyifang was all cash, and the shopkeeper never counted, but directly entered the treasury, and the silver tickets were never cashed, so Shangyifang must have an inextricable relationship with Huibaotong."

"Originally, it was not for sure, until half a year ago, Xu Yanran, the owner of Shangyifang, came to Muxian County and dined at the wine shop, and the students happened to hear that the shopkeeper of Huibaotong discussed with Xu Yanran about the delivery of silver, and understood that the owner of Huibaotong on the bright side was Liu Caishen, but in fact, it must be Xu Yanran, the owner of this Shangyi Fang."

"After coming to Yingtianfu, I learned that Master Xu is not the real owner of Shangyifang, she and Liu Caishen should only be the spokespersons on the surface, there must be a master behind it, the second highness Zhu Gaoxu and the son of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, according to their identity, none of them is lower than your country's priest wine, but they are always looking at your eyes."

"Including when Ye Hongniang put forward the idea of doing business, neither of them dared to respond, but looked at you for the first time, and it was you who spoke, asking Master Song to assist Ye Hongniang in business, from this, it is not difficult to deduce that you are the person behind these industries."

Ren Tianhua closed his eyes, although his voice was extremely low, but there was no hole in the analysis.

Lin Hao couldn't help but be secretly surprised, this person was fortunate to be under his command, otherwise he would have to get rid of it quickly no matter what.

Half a year ago, Liu Qiangxi was still building a Huibaotong branch in the vassal country, and for the later colonial layout, Huibaotong was handed over to Xu Yanran to take charge on his behalf.

At that time, it happened to be a drought in Shandong Province, so Xu Yanran took the grain merchants to Shandong Mansion to do business, and it must have been heard by Ren Tianhua when he transferred silver to the Huibaotong branch of Namuro County.

Song Li's face was full of black lines, and he said that it was impossible for these two people to spend tens of millions of taels of silver tickets just to light a cigarette, and co-authoring Huibaotong was Lin Hao's industry, and he was really not afraid of pretending to be beepping and being struck by lightning.

Looking at the smiling expressions of Lin Hao, Zhu Gaoxu and others, Song Hao had a faint premonition that he had been deceived into getting on the thief ship.

However, it was also shocked, Shangyifang was outrageous enough, and Huibaotong was also an industry under Lin Hao's name.

With Huibaotong behind the back, what business can't be done.

Even as long as Lin Hao thinks about it, overnight, he can paralyze the entire Ming economy.

How could His Majesty be at ease and let the money bag be in the hands of an outsider.

In essence, it was not that Zhu Di was relieved, but when he found out, it was already too late, and it was impossible to attack Huibaotong again no matter what.

Who would have thought that a small money bank would be able to subvert the entire Ming economy.

It's like an ant made by Brother Ma in later generations, who dared to stretch out his head and was directly chopped off by the imperial court.

"Since you have thought of this step, according to what you said, when Xu Yanran comes back, you will communicate with her and let Huibaotong enter the gambling house."

Lin Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head, how to say it, anyway, there is a feeling that there is no trace left after being picked up for the first time.

……

"Donggong, Tongzhou Bookstore can bring tens of thousands of taels of silver every month, and now it hasn't even been rolled out, do you really give up?"

Yao Ji was unwilling, he was almost strangled to death by Zhu Gaosui's reckless man before, and he really couldn't swallow this evil breath.

"Why did Yao Xiang adopt you such a fool, why did the second child go to Jin Chun, it is nothing more than to check and balance me, once Tongzhou Bookstore sells the script again, it will be confirmed that the crime of killing people and overselling goods."

"Now that the second child has just returned from Jiangnan Mansion, I thought I could assassinate him on the way, but not only did he not assassinate him, but he made a contribution, what my father thinks is not clear, at this juncture, there can be no mistake."

Zhu Gaochi scolded.

"The lesson of the East Palace is that it is difficult to let them go so easily?"

Yao Ji asked tentatively, none of which he could offend, Yao Guangxiao was in a high position above the court, but he was a righteous son and did not have any real power.

Now that he is attached to the East Palace, he has only obtained the position of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, to put it bluntly, he is a lackey of the East Palace, and if he wants to take revenge, he can only kill people with a knife.

"Don't think that this palace doesn't know what you're thinking, don't take everyone for a fool."

Zhu Gao snorted coldly.

Yao Ji knelt on the ground directly, his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat, and he kowtowed his head vigorously: "The little one has no other thoughts, but I think that Zhu Gaoxu and Lin Hao are simply too deceitful, and they rushed to the Ivy League Business School with the soldiers of the Fengzi Battalion, which did not take you seriously at all." ”

"The revenge is naturally to be avenged, you go to check, didn't Lin Hao subdue the White Lotus Sect in Xichang, see if you can do something about this matter."

A touch of ruthlessness flashed in Zhu Gaochi's eyes.

In his dreams, he wanted to kill Zhu Gaoxu, as long as Zhu Gaochu died, he could sit back and relax, but he didn't have a handle in his hand at all.

"Under the East Palace, please also be the master of the lowly position, that Zhu Gaoxu is simply not a person, forcing the lowly to sign an IOU of 100,000 taels, the lowly position has always listened to your arrangement, and all the money earned is filial to you, where to get this 100,000 taels!"

Chu Lu entered the East Palace in tears, hugged Zhu Gaochi's thighs, and cried with a handful of snot and tears.

"Keep your mouth shut tightly for this palace, otherwise you won't need the second child, this palace will kill you first!"

Zhu Gaochi frowned, revealing a touch of displeasure, pulled out the sword at his waist, and directly cut off one of Chu Lu's arms.

The reason why I use this Chu Lu is to pick myself out, and Chu Lu's implication is clearly threatening himself.

Chu Lu suddenly let out a howl like killing a pig, looked at the empty sleeves, and sat directly on the ground.

"Take 100,000 taels of silver tickets and give him them, and if you can't earn them back within three months, you will come to see him!"

Zhu Gaochi said in a cold tone.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Lu, who was like a dead dog, was thrown out of the East Palace by the guards.

……

Heaven and earth.

Wang Xianzhi, who was covered in filth, was released from the sewer, and the overseer threw a few coppers in front of Wang Xianzhi: "Go and clean up and come back, don't think about running for me, in this Ying Tianfu, you are already a dead person, if you let Jinyiwei catch it, no one can save you!" ”

Wang Xianzhi seemed to be white-headed overnight, exuding a foul smell all over his body, and walked out of the sky and earth through the back door in despair.

Who would have thought that not long ago, he was still the magistrate of Xichang Prefecture, with tens of thousands of people under his hands, spending money like dirt.

He was sent with him to the heavenly and earthly Mercy Moon, who was entertained with good food and drink, dressed in silk and satin, and slept in a large room with two rooms.

The nobleman didn't want to test himself at all, but he didn't want to live at all, so he shouldn't come to this damn Yingtianfu.

Looking at the Jinyi guard roaring past on a horse, Wang Xianzhi hurriedly lowered his head, just like the overseer said, now he has no identity, if he is caught by the Jinyi guard, he will definitely be executed as a fine work.

I suddenly remembered that ten years ago, in the middle of snow, a beggar passed through Xichang and fell into the snow, and rewarded him with half a bowl of dumplings, which was regarded as saving his life.

Later, by coincidence, I heard Chen Jugen say that that person is now an official and a political secretary, and from the official position of the fourth grade, he is a person who can speak in the court.

If you find it, you may be able to remember the grace of a meal back then, and find a way to make a living for yourself, no matter how bad it is, you can come to some entanglements and escape from Yingtianfu.

He also has a partial house in Luling County, and he has a concubine, and he doesn't give less money on weekdays, which is enough to live the rest of his life without worrying about food and clothing.

"Do you know where the Senator Guo is in the mansion?"

"Master Guo Yiguo, Senator of the Political Secretary, I am his savior, take me to his mansion and reward you with one hundred taels of silver."

……

Wang Xianzhi pulled the passer-by and asked.

This is the inner city of Yingtianfu, and Wang Xianzhi's beggar-like appearance is particularly eye-catching.

After half a day, not only did he not ask for directions, but he was treated as a madman.

Night is coming.

Forest House.

"Lord Lin, that Wang Xianzhi ran out of heaven and earth, did he send someone to find him?"

Xu Dashan asked.

"It doesn't matter, if he can catch the line of the East Palace, it will naturally be the best, and if he can't get along anymore, he will come back as if he is fine."

Lin Hao smiled and waved his hand.

……

Early in the morning of the second day.

Wang Xianzhi finally came to the house of Guo Yi, the chief secretary of the political department, and there was a knock on the door.

"Stinky beggar, I didn't look at the place in the wilderness, I ran to Lord Guo's mansion, call me!"

As soon as the housekeeper opened the door, he saw the person who knocked on the door, unkempt and beggar-faced, with an indescribable stench all over his body.

"I was wrong, I'll leave now, stop fighting!"

Wang Xianzhi was protecting his head to death, covered in blood when he was beaten, and begged bitterly.

"Who's making a fuss!?"

A middle-aged man in a fancy costume walked out of the house.

"Lord Guo, it was Wang Xianzhi, the magistrate of Xichang Prefecture, who had a heavy snowfall more than ten years ago, and you fell at the gate of the county government, and the small one gave you half a bowl of dumplings!"

Wang Xianzhi shouted loudly as if grasping a life-saving straw.

"Pan Guanguan has climbed here, what kind of bullshit Xichang Prefecture magistrate, why don't you say that you are Your Majesty today, give me a hard beating!"

The housekeeper was so angry that he trembled, if he didn't handle it properly, it would affect Lord Guo's mood, and if he blamed it, he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

"Wait!"

Guo Yi scolded.

Several family members hurriedly stopped and looked at each other.

"It's me, Lord Guo, I'm Wang Xianzhi, take a closer look!"

Wang Xianzhi was amnesty, and arched in front of Guo Yi with a roll, lifted his oily long hair, and squeezed out a smile.

"It turned out to be Wang Zhixian, after so many years, how did you end up in such a situation?"

Between the words, a flash of gloom flashed in Guo Yi's eyes.

"This matter is a long story, it has been three days before the rice has been eaten, you first ask the servants in the house to get some hot water for the little one, take a bath, and then prepare a table of wine and food, and talk to you while eating."

Wang Xianzhi said with a smile, fortunately he had such a good fate back then, otherwise he really didn't know what to do.
