Chapter 22: Cao Bianjiao's Infernal Affairs
"When people are idle, they tend to get sleepy."
Li Yunze, who was sitting on the maza, looked at the rumbling large conveyor belt with a somewhat erratic look.
The conveyor belt was filled with bags of hundreds of pounds of salt, running quickly through the space-time gate, and the salt bags were still facing the salt warehouse opposite.
Li Yunze, who was busy replenishing the stock, leaned on half of his body on the space-time door to maintain the flow rate of time on both sides, and bored with his mobile phone live broadcast.
brushed to a live broadcast room showing the ancient style of Hanfu, which attracted his attention.
The girl's appearance is very high, and she puts on one set of Hanfu after another to show around, at least in terms of image, it is very good.
When he saw the girl wearing a bright dress, Li Yunze smiled and commented, "The bright dress is a placket with big sleeves and a top and bottom." You have narrow sleeves and short skirts, not to mention the long skirt that drags the floor, but you are still on the left, which is really ridiculous. ”
The big-eyed and cute girl saw Li Yunze's words, and immediately flashed her big eyes innocently, "I bought all the clothes, I don't understand these." What does left mean? ”
"The left side is the front placket to the left, which is the characteristic of the ancient Yidi clothing. The metaphor is to fall under the iron hooves of the alien race. ”
"Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the Yuan system after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, and restored the Tang and Song Dynasty systems in Ming Dynasty, which was the right side of the Han family. If you want to meet a more serious one, you will have to be scolded. ”
"Big brother is so powerful, he knows so much. Thank you, big brother, for the reminder. The girl looked adoring and made a cute look, "I'll go to complain about the merchant now, deceiving people and selling fakes." ”
The girl's slightly snarky voice is very good, and the attitude is also good.
Li Yunze, who had nothing to do, felt that his son was teachable, so he casually rewarded a carnival past.
"Thank you, big brother~~~"
The girl thanked her in surprise and took the initiative to present an ancient dance.
It can be seen that the girl has very good dancing skills. It's just that there is no classical charm at all. It is to wear a costume and dance a modern dance.
Li Yunze, who was watching a live broadcast, continued to be busy with his work.
The girl with the screen name 'Little Fish that Spits Bubbles', after ending the live broadcast, changed the gentle and sweet stupid image in front of the camera, and changed into a sweatshirt and collapsed on the sofa "Now the live broadcast is getting more and more difficult to do, and I have only received one carnival after being busy for so long today." ”
The assistant who came to pack up the clothes instructed, "Then find the big brother, there is a big brother on the list is better than anything else." ”
"Hey."
The bubble fish that turned over was lying on the armrest, unable to wave his hand, "I want to eat after a carnival, and I want to have a show after eating, I don't dare to find it." ”
"And what are you looking for?"
The bubble fish that was lying on his back turned over and raised his slender legs with a big grin, "I have a high vision, and I have to be a dragon and phoenix among people." ”
"The person I like has to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger, run rampant in the world like waiting for leisure, talk and laugh and point out the country, and the pen can decide the fortune of ten thousand people."
"It's really a lot of time travel dramas." The assistant holding the clothes quipped, "Then you have to travel back in time to ancient times to be a queen to find it." By the way, these clothes..."
"What's wrong with the clothes, of course I'm going to wear them."
The fair-skinned bubble fish looked as a matter of course, "Then big brother really doesn't understand anything." This dress cost money, of course, to be used again. Anyway, that big brother shouldn't brush me again. Even if it swiped me, it wasn't so coincidental to wear this set. ”
After hours of work, it was finally time to come to an end.
Li Yunze, who was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, picked up the walkie-talkie, "It's okay, the big guy calls it a day." Zhao Gong took everyone to eat and take a bath, and Zhao Gong will pay the bonus now. ”
At the end of the conveyor belt in the warehouse next door, workers who were busy carrying goods stopped their forklifts and cheered to pack up their things and go home from work.
They can drive forklifts to transport dozens of bags of salt on the conveyor belt at a time, and their work efficiency is much better than that of the contractors in the Ming Dynasty.
Li Yunze walked into the gate of time and space, and opposite was a warehouse near the wharf outside Yangzhou City.
He was able to fill up several large warehouses nearby in half a night, and the local tyrants in Jiangnan wanted to buy up his goods, and it was not enough to move a mountain of gold.
If you want to play, then I will play with you to the end.
When the time came to the beginning of June of the first year of Chongzhen, the local tyrants in Jiangnan couldn't bear it at all.
They used a huge amount of money to buy a mountain of salt.
It can even be said that Daming's salt production for almost two years has been bought up by them.
But even so, the ships of the Yangtze River Sailors are still transporting salt to various places one after another, and there is no intention of stopping at all.
Everyone didn't understand where all this salt came from.
In these days, the local tyrants hoarded and bought more than 10 million taels of salt, and directly used up all the silver taels.
It's not that their net worth is only this little silver tael, but the Chinese tradition is to buy land when they have money, and most of their wealth is concentrated in the fields.
Those who sell tea still have to buy tea, those who sell silk fabrics have to buy raw silk, those who sell porcelain have to supply kilns, those who do textiles have to maintain production, and the sea owners have to build ships and go to sea.
The local tyrants also have a lot of expenses to maintain their business.
The real ones who had the most money were actually salt merchants.
It's a pity that the salt merchants are now rats crossing the street, and they are all about to be wiped out by Li Yunze.
The other big landlords, big capitalists, mountain owners and sea owners don't have so much liquidity.
Even, most people have been driven to a dead end.
At this time, unwilling people can do anything. There is no hesitation in taking risks.
After there was finally no large-scale salt hoarding in the market, Li Yunze finally left Yangzhou City and went south across the river to Yingtianfu.
When the Son of Heaven arrived, he was usually greeted by the local dignitaries.
It's just that now the leading figures in all parts of Jiangnan are all left by Li Yunze at this time, so the scene of greeting is very shabby, and there are only two or three kittens.
As for the famous squires, they were already frightened, for fear of taking it on the spot, so they didn't dare to show up at all.
"Long live, the minister Cao Bianjiao has something important to report."
On the way to the city, Cao Bianjiao, who had previously exterminated the Gannan Liukou and made meritorious contributions, and then was ordered to take over Yingtianfu, did not hesitate to directly denounce it.
"Say."
"Zhao Zhilong, the son of Xincheng Boshi, bribed the ministers with 800,000 taels of silver, and lured the ministers to support the army and self-respect, and tried to do wrong."
As soon as Cao Bianjiao's words came out, among the crowd behind Li Yunze, an old man immediately fell off his horse.
"Hooray!"
The old man cried and crawled over, "The courtiers will never dare to do such a rebellious thing!" I hope Your Majesty will see it! ”
This is Zhao Zhilong's father, the current Xincheng Bo Zhao Shixin.
"Don't panic in Xincheng." Li Yunze turned his head slightly and squinted, "I will never wronged a good person, nor will I let go of a bad person." ”
"Cao Bianjiao, framing Xungui is a serious crime. Do you have any evidence? Li Yunze asked sternly.
In fact, Cao Bianjiao had already secretly reported this matter, that is, the blood alliance book was only written last night and he didn't have time to send it over.
Now, I'm acting for the monkeys.
"How dare the minister make false accusations." Cao Bianjiao, who was in great shape, bowed his head slightly, neither humble nor arrogant, "The minister pretended to agree, and also wrote a blood covenant with Zhao Zhilong and others. They conspired against a group of dead soldiers, stole crossbows from the army, and ambushed them in the city to do things of rebellion. ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Yunze didn't know how many people behind him were trembling.
If there is a blood book, it is already a dead death, not to mention that there is an ambush of the dead to attack the emperor.
If this is really a good thing, with the ability of the nobles and local civil and military personnel, it is still a good thing.
But the most terrible thing is that Cao Bianjiao's soul is weak, and he plays Infernal Affairs!
He's all out there, but everyone who participates in it is doomed.
The huge procession stopped, and the atmosphere was tense and oppressive to the extreme.
Xungui and local civil and military officials are secretly praying that their stupid son will not be involved.
Li Yunze looked at Cao Bianjiao calmly, and the young face under the helmet was full of determination.
"What are you responsible for?" After a pause, Li Yunze asked.
"According to the agreement, the sergeants of the two battalions of the Longxiang Army are responsible for sealing the city and locking the news, and the guarantee will persuade Uncle Cao Zongbing to rebel." Cao Wenzhao took out a thick blood book from his arms and respectfully handed it to Li Yunze's hand.
"Hey."
Li Yunze, who turned over and dismounted, stood with his hands together and looked at Ying Tianfucheng in front of him, "The arrangement is quite thorough." ”
Li Yunze rectified the salt business and offended a large group of people who made money on it.
severely punished the Jiangnan famous students who made trouble, and offended a large number of people.
The hoarding and selling of salt has forced many people to the brink of bankruptcy.
In addition, there are rumors that the emperor wants to remove all the nobles, pay off the profits, re-measure the acres of land, and ...
One by one, one by one, it is natural for someone to want to jump off the wall in a hurry.
After all, as long as Li Yunze is solved, everything will be classified into the right path that they hope and are familiar with.
In the Ming Dynasty, it is really not uncommon to get rid of the emperor who makes trouble.
Li Yunze stood there upright, and the huge team behind him didn't even dare to cough.
Everyone knows that what will happen next is going to be a bloody storm.
"I wanted to solve the problem as smoothly as possible." Li Yunze's expression was a little gloomy: "However, there is a way in heaven, if you don't go, there is no door in hell, you have to break in." ”
"Cao Wenzhao."
"The minister is here!" Cao Wenzhao, who was wearing armor, stepped forward and responded in a deep voice.
"Lockdown the city, do things."
Li Yunze turned around and smiled angrily, "No matter who is involved, Guogong, Hou Ye, Uncle." First grade, second grade, third grade. What a celebrity, what a gentry, what a monk, what a good person. Don't let any of them go! ”
"Minister, Commander!"
"Give you two hours to do things. Before dark, I will go into the palace to rest. ”
Stuffed the blood book in his hand to Cao Wenzhao, Li Yunze asked for a maza, so he sat on the maza and watched silently.
The brigade of Long Xiang army drove towards Ying Tianfu City, and many nobles were already directly frightened.
This time, I really want the nine clans to sing thank you together.
Cao Wenzhao, who has outstanding ability, is indeed very efficient.
In less than two hours, he rode back from the city and replied, "Long live, the minister has killed ninety-three assassins in the city and captured fifteen. Those who were named in the blood book, except for the seven who were disposed of for stubborn resistance, the rest have been taken. The rebel mansions, mansions, family members, etc., have been strictly guarded. ”
"Well done."
Li Yunze, who stood up from Maza, rubbed his legs, "Add the crown prince and Taibao to you, Cao Bianjiao will be promoted to deputy general, and the governor will be the governor." ”
The merit is higher than the rescue, and the uncle and nephew of the Cao family have meritorious service in saving the driver, of course, they must be rewarded.
"Luo Yang's sex."
"The minister is here!"
"I'll leave the rest to you, don't let me down."
"Minister, obey!"
Li Yunze turned over and went straight to Ying Tianfu City, "Hurry up, as soon as possible." ”
The imperial palace of Yingtianfu has not been repaired for many years, and it is already dilapidated.
Moreover, when the palace was built, it was built by filling in the Yanque Lake.
Over the years, the collapse of the palace is very serious, and it has affected the overall architectural pattern.
Li Yunze, who rode a horse to the square in front of the palace, looked at the desolate and dilapidated scene in front of him, and directly called out "Wang Chengen." ”
"The slave is here."
"I remember that every year, the internal treasury will allocate a sum of money to repair the Imperial City of Yingtianfu."
Li Yunze held the horsewhip and gestured in front of him: "That's how you repaired it?" ”
"The Emperor."
Ignoring the pleading gaze of the town guard eunuchs, Wang Chengen immediately confessed, "The previous emperors of the past dynasties have not been out of Beijing for many years, and the town guards and eunuchs have long been slack. thought that the emperor would not come to Yingtianfu again, so he naturally swallowed up the repair silver. ”
"Tell Cao Huachun that in the past, all the eunuchs who guarded the town were strictly investigated, and the money must be recovered if they die."
"As for this." Li Yunze, who had a straight face, glanced at the town guard eunuch who collapsed to the ground.
"Dispose of it now."
