"After the ban on the city's easy affairs, the financial route of the general judgment was cut off again, and it is estimated that Li Daochong has been angry and ruined." Zhang Bo said with a smile.

Li Bao said: "These corrupt officials, it is too cheap for them to only cut off their money. What's more, the general judgment is also in charge of taxes, and can make money by exacting taxes and miscellaneous taxes. ”

Zhang Bo shook his head and said: "Jinzhou is too poor, and there are not a few taxes that are excessively taxed. Once the exploitation is too heavy, it will inevitably provoke civil unrest. ”

Zhu Ming smiled: "Okay, there is no need to talk about this matter." The township soldiers have been recruited, and they have been practicing for a few days, and Qian Chen is about to take them to inspect the counties. Both of you go with you, in case someone jumps over the wall. Once you encounter resistance, you can kill them on the spot! ”

"Yes!" The two of them took the order.

At this moment, a subordinate official ran over in a panic: "Taishou, Li Daju rushed in with people, how can we stop it!" ”

Zhu Ming smiled and said, "You don't have to stop him, just let him in." ”

Cutting off people's financial means is like killing their parents, Li Daochong has been mad.

"Smack!"

Li Daochong led people to Huangtang and snapped out a document: "Zhu Taishou, who gave you the power to meddle in Chang Pingsi's affairs?" Jinzhou Changping, belonging to Jingnan Road Changping. Jingnan Road is Changping, and it belongs directly to the center. Even the transshipment envoy can't manage ordinary affairs. What are you a state of? ”

Zhu Ming slowly opened the paperwork and asked rhetorically: "To lend money to merchants, you must set up a city exchange department or city exchange business. In the past, this yamen was only set up above the border or Wangzhou. Is Golden State Wangzhou? No! And the City Yi Division has long been canceled, even Cai Xiang has not been restored. The establishment of this yamen in Jinzhou is unreasonable and unfounded. ”

"It's not set up by me, the change of Jinzhou Changping Division City has been around for as early as twenty years ago!" Li Daochong argued.

Zhu Ming sneered: "It's already compliant?" Successive governors don't care, it's their own business. Since I came to Golden State to be an official, I have to take care of this kind of thing! ”

Li Daochong slapped the table continuously and said, "Where did you get the power to manage ordinary affairs?" ”

Zhu Ming asked: "Jinzhou businessmen, are they the people of Jinzhou?" Since they are the people of Golden State, they are violated, how can Zhizhou not have the right to ask? ”

Turning over and over, it was still this sentence, Li Dao was so angry that he kicked on the table: "I can't tell you clearly!" I'm going to impeach you for overstepping your authority and misconduct! ”

"Then you go to impeach, what kind of tantrum do you come to me?" Zhu Mingman didn't care.

In the Song Dynasty, local official positions were extremely complex, with layers of constraints and mutual constraints, and often multiple departments had jurisdiction over a matter.

Officials who are timid and have many concerns naturally find it difficult to do things.

But if it is a strong person like Zhu Ming who has no taboos and serves as the chief officer, he can really suppress the subordinate officials without any temper.

"Invite the envoy of Wu Branch!" Zhu Ming shouted.

The subordinate immediately went to the Secretary-General.

Wu Mao was working outside, and when he was called, he quickly ran over.

Zhu Ming said: "Envoy Wu, tell Li Daju about the city's affairs. ”

Wu Mao said the same as reciting the article: "King Shu set up the capital to raise the city of Yisi, and successively belonged to the three divisions and Taifu Temple. This yamen and the local city have long been abolished. Since then, there has been no replacement, and there is a matter of market change, which is only handled by the Changping Yamen. Jinzhou City is easy to do, there is no way to follow, there is no order to work, it should be banned! ”

Li Daochong didn't take Wu Mao seriously before, and he couldn't help but look at it twice at this moment: "What kind of thing are you?" Dare to confront me in person! ”

"I'm the Golden State Observer Envoy, assisting Taishou in acting state affairs." Wu Mao held his head high, and there was a sense of happiness in his heart.

Zhu Ming ordered in front of Li Daochong: "Jinzhou City's Yiwu is an illegal and privately set up yamen, and there is not even a single official in the stream. Ordered Wang Jia, the right intellectual, and asked him to take the officials of the yaqian to seal up the city. All the account books and goods should be confiscated, and all the officials should be dismissed! ”

"You dare!" Li Daochong roared angrily.

"Why wouldn't I dare?" Zhu Ming got up to confront him and shouted, "Go and do it immediately!" ”

"Yes." Wu Mao was ordered to retreat.

After a while, it became noisy outside, and Wang Jia gathered a large number of officials to set off.

Li Daochong finally panicked, and he didn't make any noise here, so he quickly ran out to stop it himself.

"Please get out of the way." Wang Jia said.

Li Daochong took a few entourages and blocked the gate of the state ya: "Who dares to move?" ”

Wang Jia was neither humble nor arrogant: "We also obey orders, if the judgment is dissatisfied, please go and talk to Taishou." ”

The two sides froze there, and more and more officials came to see the excitement. Even the people passing by stood far away from the gate of the state government, looking at the back of the general judge and whispering.

Li Daochong was embarrassed by his dignity and confronted a group of officials.

The longer the confrontation, the more you fall!

After thinking about it carefully, Li Daochong said: "You are waiting here to stop you, there are other important matters in this judgment." ”

The goods left by themselves, leaving only a few relatives to block the door, planning to go back to the judgment hall to call more subordinates to support the scene.

Yang Pu, who had been secretly observing, hurriedly ran over to report the news, Zhu Ming hurriedly walked out, pointed at those relatives and scolded angrily: "Where did Diao people come from, they actually blocked the state government, and they were all arrested and put in prison to beat the board!" ”

"Yes!"

Wang Jia didn't dare to make a move against the general judgment, and now that the general judgment is gone, there is nothing to worry about.

Under the gaze of many officials, a group of subordinate officials of the state government really rushed towards the general judge. There were many of them, and it was difficult for those relatives to run as they wanted, so they were quickly pressed to the ground and tied up.

Hiss!

The officials gasped, what Zhu Ming had seized before was just an official of Hengkou Affairs.

And at this moment, they dared to detain the relatives of the general sentence, and the two chief officials of Jinzhou completely turned their faces.

And, the general judgment is defeated, and Zhizhou wins!

Zhizhou is not only a bigger official, but also does things reasonably. The reason for the seizure was that these people were blocking the state office. The reason for the seizure of Jinzhou City is that the city is an illegal private organization.

is a high-ranking and powerful teacher, what is the general judge to fight?

What happened today made Li Daochong's prestige and face ruined, and some subordinate officials decided to report to Zhizhou.

"Follow me!"

Wang Jia asked a few officials to escort those relatives to the prison, and he led more officials to rush to the city.

At the same time, there were also some small officials who secretly went to report to the merchants.

Since Zhu Ming revealed the news of the rectification of Changping Division, the businessmen will be suspicious and pay attention to the situation of the state government at any time.

When Wang Jia led people to the city, the merchants who were close to him also arrived.

Jinzhou City's easy affairs, for businessmen, is tantamount to the Shura field.

This thing was made by Wang Anshi, but even Wang Anshi's younger brother Wang Anli said that the city change law would lead to poverty among the people.

In the second year of Yuanfeng, the New Party finally admitted that the market change law failed, because the merchants were badly harmed, and the price of goods was raised to the people, but the imperial court did not increase its income. So, where does everyone's lost money go?

Of course, the officials are corrupt!

In the Northern Song Dynasty, there was always a shortage of money in circulation, and merchants had difficulty in financing, and the annual interest rate of loans was often more than 100%. Wang Anshi set the annual interest rate of the funds lent by the city at 20%, which ostensibly belongs to the policy of benefiting the people.

However, due to the lack of principal of the city, it is impossible to take out so much cash. As a result, businessmen who wanted to borrow money had to pay bribes to officials first, and then get preferential low-interest loans.

This is nothing, in order to implement the law of change in order to obtain political achievements, officials are not satisfied with just a little loan. Immediately, he distorted the other contents of the law and began to buy and sell in the market, and many profitable businesses had to be bought and sold through the intermediaries of the market.

Commodities are often seized in large quantities, forcing merchants to pay rent, or even direct apportionment. Then take the deposit rent given by the businessman, and then go to the loan to the businessman to brush up on the political performance. In this way, the government does not need to pay a penny of principal, and can earn 20% interest for nothing, and can also get rapid promotion in political performance.

The interest earned also disappeared out of thin air for some reason.

Jinzhou is located in the middle of nowhere, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the city law that has been abolished a long time ago was actually re-established 20 years ago, and it has continued to exploit merchants to this day.

Seeing that Wang Jia led people to seize the city's Yiwu, Dai Chenghei, who witnessed the whole Taishou trial that day, said to the businessmen around him: "Zhu Taishou is really a capable minister in the world!" ”

Shang Jia shook his head: "I'm afraid that Mrs. Zhu will not be an official in Jinzhou for a long time." ”

"It's good to stay for a year, it's a bad breath for us!" Dai Chengsi has long hated the city's affairs.

This guy has been lifted in the exam, and more than once, and at the same time he is a Golden State businessman. Although the family property is only a few thousand yuan, he is also the leading figure in Golden State.

Wang Jia is still sealing this place, and Guo Wenzhong has already brought people over to post notices.

Dai Chengsi hurried over to check, and after reading it, he was even more excited.

The notice reads:

First, Jinzhou Yiwu is an illegal private organization and should be banned. Golden State businessmen can repay the loan and interest in advance, and the interest is calculated on a monthly basis, and the interest for the remaining months of the year does not need to be paid. Those who are willing to repay the loan in advance will go to the state government to pay the money, and the money obtained will be charged to the state government treasury.

Second, all the officials of Jinzhou City's Yiwu should be dismissed, and they must no longer provoke right and wrong. The Yaren (official intermediary) of the city is also dismissed, and is no longer allowed to interfere in commercial activities, and must no longer interfere with the market to force buying and selling. Violators will be punished!

Dai Chengsi discussed with the businessmen and said: "The guilds in Jinzhou should offer the umbrella of the people to the Taishou!" ”

Offering the umbrella of the people is only one of them, and the business guilds can take the opportunity to reach a consensus. In the future, everyone will advance and retreat together, even if Zhu Taishou leaves Jinzhou, and the government wants to re-establish the city and change affairs, the leaders should also join forces to resist.

The basis for the boycott is the notice posted by Zhu Ming today!

Li Daochong finally hurried to the scene with the officials of the General Judgment Hall.

However, he didn't know whether to go to the prison to return to his relatives, or to prevent the officials of the state government from seizing the city. If you make a fuss and lose again, how can you have any face left?

This Zhu Taishou is unreasonable...... No, it's too reasonable. Everything he did had a legal basis, and he used chicken feathers as an arrow, and he didn't save face at all.

Li Daochong, as a general judge, is neither reasonable nor prestigious, and even the officials listen to Zhizhou, what is he fighting with Zhu Ming now?

Thinking about it, Li Daochong rode to the manager's courtyard and roared to ask for his personal entourage.

The Minister's House immediately released them, but those who accompanied them were all beaten up. Although there is no danger to their lives, it is enough to lie down for ten days and half a month, who dares to block the state government?

Song Ning, who joined the army, was too deeply involved with Li Daochong, and it was too late to change the court, so he came to discuss privately: "Li Daju, you can't sit still, the surname Zhu has only been in Jinzhou for more than a month, and he has already made a lot of trouble." Who knows what he's going to do next? ”

Li Daochong said impatiently: "What can I do? He is the Taishou, he is the chief officer. The official level crushed people to death, not to mention that he is still an official governor! ”

Song Ning said: "The judge should write a letter to Cai Xiang as soon as possible, and transfer this surnamed Zhu away as soon as possible, otherwise Jinzhou will be an official." ”

"I've already written a letter, and I've written two letters back and forth, and it will take time to send it to the capital." Li Daochong was anxious.

Song Ning thought about it and came up with a bad idea: "He seized the city and dismissed many officials. He also issued an official document ordering all counties to ban private columns (illegal toll booths) and to dismiss many officials. Aren't these officials resentful of having lost their livelihood? Let them go to the state government to make trouble! ”

"What's the use of making trouble?" Li Daochong said, "The surname Zhu has a tough wrist, and if he catches one of them, will he still be afraid of those dismissed officials?" ”

Song Ning said: "No matter whether it is useful or useless, if you make trouble, you have to find some trouble for him." ”

Li Daochong couldn't think about it, so he had to agree to this matter.

Toads don't bite, they can always disgust people, and those dismissed officials are toads.
