Chapter 246: Two Shocking News

After a day and a night of fermentation, the Maritime Trade Division will officially hold an auction in the near future, auction the sea voucher, and His Majesty will go to Guozijian to teach! These two major events spread in the capital at the same time.

For these two major events, businessmen are more concerned about the sea voucher that the Sea Trade Division is about to auction, after all, this is a real benefit!

As long as you can get the certificate to go to sea, it means that a steady stream of wealth is beckoning to you.

And the officials in the capital, large and small, are quite looking forward to the fact that the emperor is going to go to the country to teach in the prison!

On the one hand, it was because people were really curious about the content of the book "Science", and on the other hand, because it was one of the few opportunities to get up close and personal with the emperor.

After all, after listening to His Majesty's lectures, he can be regarded as a protégé of the Son of Heaven!

……

Beijing, Yanfu.

Early in the morning, Yan Song was sitting at the dining table, concentrating on the plate of pickles in front of him.

After a while, I saw Yan Shifan walk into the room with an excited face, chattering endlessly.

"Father, have you heard?"

"Your Majesty will go to Guozijian to give a lecture in the near future, and at that time, all the officials in the capital can go to observe."

"Father, children are curious about what is in the book "Science"! ”

"Your Majesty only used a small part of the above knowledge to solve a big problem for the Weapons Division."

"I heard that right now, on the side of the Weapons Division, the process of developing new cannons is quite smooth, not only that, but even the range and power of the firecracker have been improved accordingly!"

Seeing this, Yan Song sighed helplessly, then put down the dishes and chopsticks and spoke.

"You still haven't eaten?"

Seeing that his father Yan Song was a little unhappy, Yan Shifan saw this, and immediately sat down next to Yan Song and began to taste the dishes on the table.

But then again, I was also curious about the book called "Science". ”

"There is such an amazing book in this world!"

"When I have the opportunity in the future, I must see with my own eyes what that book looks like."

Seeing that Yan Shifan was quiet, Yan Song picked up the teacup on the side, took a sip, and sighed.

……

Jiangxi, Nanchang Province.

After a lot of reprimands, officials from all over Jiangxi Province were cleaned up.

And the alternate officials who set off at the same time as the army that Hu Zongxian mentioned earlier also arrived in Jiangxi one after another.

And today, this group of alternate officials will officially report on their work!

"I've seen the Governor, I've seen the Governor."

In the hall of the government office, I saw many officials saluting respectfully to Hu Zongxian and Cao Shunhe, who were sitting at the top.

"Well, let's all get up."

Hu Zongxian said this after glancing at each other with Cao Shunhe.

"This official has previously been ordered by His Majesty to lead a large army to Jiangxi to quell the rebellion!"

When Hu Zongxian said this, he deliberately paused for a moment, looked around, and then continued.

"Not only that, but this official is also responsible for dealing with those officials who are corrupt and pervert the law, and prey on the common people! Right now, you should be able to see their fate clearly on the way here. ”

"Therefore, this official hopes that you will be honest and honest, and do not follow in their footsteps."

Hu Zongxian's remarks undoubtedly made all the alternate officials present feel a chill down their spines.

The reason is that on the way they came, they saw the bodies of many officials hanging from the towers of the city.

Not only that, after they traveled thousands of miles to Jiangxi, the first thing Hu Zongxian did was to ask his subordinates to lead them to visit the prison.

In the prison, they saw the tragic situation of many officials who were once prominent and imposing, and not only that, but whenever they passed by a cell, there was also a special person to introduce the rank and origin of these officials!

And these measures taken by Hu Zongxian have undoubtedly caused a great psychological shadow to this group of alternate officials, and they are deeply impressed!

Perhaps when they are old, they will still be able to recall in their minds the scene when Hu Zongxian sent someone to take them to visit the prison.

After Hu Zongxian's beating was completed, it was Cao Shun's turn and the governor of Jiangxi to stand up and speak comfortingly.

"You don't have to be too nervous, I might as well tell you a piece of news."

"That is, although you are currently an alternate official, if you perform well in office and have outstanding political achievements, you will be turned into a regular in advance, and your current rank and treatment will remain unchanged!"

And Cao Shunhe's words undoubtedly gave a shot of strength to many alternate officials present!

At this moment, many alternate officials in the audience have a glint of hope in their eyes, and they all hope to be able to make some political achievements in their own office! As a result, the alternate officer will be transferred to a full official.

Seeing that the fire was almost over, Hu Zongxian nodded at Cao Shunhe and said softly.

"Well, let's get started."

Seeing this, Chao Shunhe on the side immediately increased his volume and said loudly.

"Now, let's officially start the debriefing, everyone, take out your fish talisman and the letter of appointment."

"After the debriefing is completed, you will go to your respective posts and officially take up your posts!"

As soon as Cao Shunhe's words fell, many alternate officials present forcibly suppressed the excitement in their hearts, lined up one after another, and began to report on their work.

……

After the debriefing was completed, Hu Zongxian immediately left the hall, went to the room where he was currently living, and called his own guards, and commanded in a deep voice.

"Go and bring a message to the envoy of Jinyi Weizhen, and say that the official has something to discuss with him!"

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

After receiving the order, the guards immediately left the palace and ran towards the station of the Jinyi guard.

A moment later, Jin Yiwei calmed Liu Mi, and under his leadership, entered the room.

After Jin Yiwei calmed Liu Mi into the room, he took the first step to salute Hu Zongxian respectfully, and then asked.

"Governor Hu, do you have anything to explain when you come to the lower officials this time?"

"Sit."

After Hu Zongxian finished speaking, he pointed to the vacant seat on the side.

After the Jinyi Wei envoy sat down in his seat, Hu Zongxian slowly spoke.

"Actually, this official is looking for you this time, there is indeed one thing that needs to be done by your Jinyi Guard!"

"Governor Hu doesn't have to be so polite, there is anything that needs to be done, just ask! After all, this time, our Jinyiwei is just to assist you. ”

After listening to Hu Zongxian's words, Liu Mi immediately responded.

"When I sent my subordinates to confiscate the property of those salt merchants, I accidentally found a map that recorded a lot of mineral resources and the location of salt wells!"

"It is marked with copper, iron, silver, and other precious medicinal materials."

"This official wants you Jinyi Wei to transport this map, along with the 50 million taels of silver that was previously confiscated from that group of salt merchants, to the capital!"

After Hu Zongxian finished speaking, he took out a sheepskin map full of markings from his bosom and sent it to Liu Mi's hand.

Liu Mi solemnly took the map, and after a general glance, he suddenly found that the mineral resources marked on it and the location of the salt wells were not controlled by the government.

"Well, don't worry, Jin Yiwei will definitely transport it to the capital safely!"

At this moment, Rao Envoy is Liu Mi, who has been up and down in the sea for half his life, and Liu Mi, who boasts of reading countless people, was also touched by Hu Zongxian's heart of public loyalty to the country, and immediately assured.
