0171 Gossip of the elders

This kind of large-scale propaganda activities have been completely spread in and around Jingshi! Basically everyone involved was notified. Those who were notified were worried, dismissive, angry, and so on!

And Liu Haojia was still unmoved after receiving everyone's feedback, and continued to promote the progress of things one by one. Moreover, he gave Zhang Xianling and Sun Shenjiang a written report every day, which would clearly state how many gangs had merged today, which gangs had disbanded, which gangs had moved, and where they had moved. Today, which casino owners were interviewed, how many streets were preached, and how many merchants received the notice!

This detailed reporting method made Zhang Xianling feel refreshing to the people behind them, and the daily progress seemed to be clear at a glance. So although they are desperate to get the money, they can endure it when they see that things are progressing according to the plan step by step.

On the morning after seven or eight days of the incident, several elders came to the duty room after the morning, eating snacks and drinking tea, and at the same time chatting relaxedly.

Because the time of the early dynasty is too early, everyone generally can't eat breakfast, so they can only eat some snacks at home. Therefore, after the end of the morning dynasty, the eunuchs in the duty room will arrange snacks and tea to let the elders replenish their physical strength. And this time is also a rare time for them to chat, otherwise the overwhelming recitals will drown them out of the day after a while.

Zhang Han took a sip of tea beautifully, rinsed off the dim sum residue in his mouth, and said: "I heard that the Jinyi guards and the servants below have actually cooperated to clean up the gang in the past few days, and they are doing a good job!" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Siwei put down the teacup and said, "Really? Haven't they always been incompatible? How can they join forces to investigate the case? How's it going? ”

Several other cabinet elders have their own sources, and in fact, they are all aware of these things. When Zhang Han mentioned this matter, everyone just had one more thing to talk about. And Zhang Han naturally knew it in his heart, but he still said: "Don't say it, their cooperation is really good!" In the past few days, a large number of gang figures have been arrested, and by the way, many previously fugitive wanted criminals have been arrested, and a lot of old cases have been settled! The Criminal Department should have been on paperwork, right? ”

Shen Shixing was in charge of the documents reported by the Criminal Department, and after thinking about it, he said, "That's true!" In the past few days, the Criminal Department has reported a lot of copies of the case, and more than 20 people have been sentenced to beheading! But the strange thing is that in the past, these criminals were sentenced to confiscation, but this time all the people who came up were exiled! But I didn't dig deeper. ”

At this time, Zhang Siwei said meaningfully: "Rumo, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of such reports in the past few days, right?" ”

Shen Shixing thought about it a little and said, "It's a lot! However, I deliberately checked a few case files, and the evidence was conclusive and the confession was correct, so I approved them all! Why, what else is there to say about this? ”

Zhang Siwei said with a smile: "There are indeed some problems in this, but there is nothing wrong with these arrested people themselves!" ”

Shen Shixing became interested when he heard this, and said: "Brother Ziwei, you know that I have never been under the hall, so there are some things I really don't know!" Why don't you talk about it! ”

Of course Zhang Siwei didn't believe this! As a pavilion elder, having no eyes and ears is simply a joke! It's just that Shen Shixing really doesn't pay attention to the things at the bottom, but at most, he received the news a few days later. Therefore, Zhang Siwei did not hide it, and said directly: "In the past few days, the Jinyi Guard and the servants of Shuntian Mansion are ready to unite to collect money from the merchants on the boundary street!" Maybe I felt embarrassed to just collect money and not do things, so I cleaned up these gangs! It's just a front stop for collecting money! ”

Shen Shixing said: "There was already a matter of collecting money, is there anything different this time, actually cleaning up the gang with great fanfare?" ”

Zhang Han hurriedly said: "In the past, these people only extorted money from some small merchants, and they didn't dare to touch merchants with backgrounds!" But now that they have united, they actually want to collect money from all the merchants in Jingshili! I heard that they have also set a standard, and the amount of money collected by different merchants is different! ”

After Zhang Han said this, there was silence in the duty room. In fact, everyone here has long known that the way Jinyiwei collects money now is a disguised business tax. Now everyone is saying it just to test other people's thoughts on this matter.

But everyone here is an old demon who has achieved cultivation, where would anyone be willing to show this thought! So it's quiet in the room! And at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the duty room, and everyone was relieved from my unspeakable silence!

Shen Shixing breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly: "Come in!" ”

Then the door was pushed open, and a row of eunuchs walked in with a tray of notebooks, which were expertly placed on each elder's table. And just when the elders of the pavilion spread out the notebook and were about to study it carefully, they suddenly heard Zhang Juzheng say thoughtlessly: "Let's see!" ”

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, knowing that Zhang Juzheng acquiesced to this matter. In fact, they also know that Zhang Juzheng must know about this! Because officials at all levels have a share in the matter of collecting money, who can forget about the elders?

And the idea of Emperor Wanli's share of silver entering the inner treasury was decided by Zhang Siwei, and he also received the tacit approval of several elders. Otherwise, according to Liu Haojia's budget, how could such a large sum of silver be cheaper than Emperor Wanli for nothing!

Just when the elders wanted to start reading, Zhang Siwei found that the eunuch in charge of presenting the recital was still in the room and did not go out, so he asked strangely, "Do you have anything to do today?" ”

The eunuch said with a smile: "Elder Zhang Ge, the slave does not know how to deal with something. So I'd like to ask a few elders! ”

Zhang Siwei knew that there must be something wrong with the script. Because this eunuch is specially receiving, forwarding and storing the transcript, nothing else can be related to him. So he put down his pen and said, "What the hell is going on, just say it!" ”

The eunuch bowed down and said: "I received a batch of recitals today, a total of 30 copies, all of them came up by one person, signed by a general banner of Jinyiwei. ”

Zhang Siwei said: "Nonsense! How can a general flag be qualified to play this book! Just throw it out! ”

The eunuch got the idea and was about to leave, but Shen Shixing said: "Wait, don't deal with the transcript yet!" ”

Then he turned his head and said, "Brother Ziwei, Jinyiwei also has the authority to play!" It's just that their recitals should be presented directly to His Majesty! ”
