Xu Guogong nodded and said, "Yes, it is because of these two things! Although the old man has made a lot of preparations, he is still a little hesitant in his heart! After all, this is no small matter!"

Liu Haojia said: "Then let the juniors explain it to you, you will naturally understand the inside story!" In fact, these people are just grasshoppers after autumn, and they can't dance for a few days!"

Xu Guogong laughed when he heard this, and said, "Although this country slang is vulgar, it is appropriately described! Listen to you, old man!"

Liu Haojia said, "That junior will say the first thing first! That is, the younger generation has built a large number of salt farms in Shandong, and these salt farms will produce a large amount of salt every day! And because the salt farm is always expanding, even the younger generation can't count how much salt can be produced every day! However, it is certain that in the past two years, the salt stored by the younger generation in Shandong has been more than the number of salt sales in previous years, which is enough for the people of Daming to eat! Moreover, the people brought by the younger generation this time will directly control the salt farm, and it will definitely not affect the continued production of the salt farm! At the same time, the inland water division will also cooperate with the transportation of salt, so as long as the sailor boat can only go to the place, there is no need to worry about the shortage of salt! As for other remote areas, you don't have to worry, because the price of salt has been lowered, and everyone can sell salt, and those merchants will naturally sell salt everywhere in Daming for profit!"

Xu Guogong was surprised to hear him say this, and asked many questions! And Liu Haojia answered one by one, very fluently, and Xu Guogong nodded again and again! Finally, he said, "It seems that you have really put in the effort! In that case, let's talk about the second question!"

Liu Haojia said: "This second question is actually simpler! Long Live Lord has agreed with Zhang Xiangye that he will come forward to deal with official matters, and the focus is only on the salt merchants! As for the officials in various places who have been bribed by the imperial history, at most, they will eliminate the first evil, and it will not affect too widely!"

Gonggong Zhang stroked his beard and said, "If that's the case, it's easy to do!"

Liu Haojia continued: "And Grandpa Guo should also know that in recent years, due to the implementation of laws such as a compilation law and a test law, the treasury has been gradually enriched, giving the people of the world a chance to breathe, and making the world more peaceful! But when the world is peaceful, I am afraid it is the time for the cabinet to compete for power! I'm afraid Zhang Xiangye will also take this opportunity to do something, right?"

Xu Guogong immediately understood after listening to Liu Haojia's meaningful second half of his words, and couldn't help but smile and said, "I see! It seems that Zhang Siwei and the others are going to be unlucky this time!"

Liu Haojia saw that Xu Guogong had made his words clear, so he let go and said, "That's right! That four-dimensional coveting the position of the first assistant can be described as Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone knows it! He has also made many powerful moves in the imperial court! This pile, one by one, wants to come to Zhang Xiangye is also a hole in the fire, this time I am afraid he will also take this opportunity to clean up!"

Xu Guogong nodded again and again and said, "That's very good! This second problem is solved! With Zhang Shoufu's ability, the clean-up of officialdom has turned into an internal struggle among civilian officials, which is not only justifiable, but also able to control the intensity! It's amazing!"

Speaking of this, he changed his words and said, "In that case, the old man is not worried! All the manpower was deployed four days ago, in the name of the exercise! They were in the barracks outside the city! When are you going to do it?"

Liu Haojia said: "According to the plan, the sailor's ship will dock at the Nanjing pier at night in two days, and then it will be able to board the ship at that time. Today it is just right to send the people brought by the juniors to the battalion, and by the way, the soldiers will be grouped. It's just that this matter still needs a handwritten letter from Grandpa Guo!"

Xu Guogong nodded and said, "It's simple! You settle down here first, and the old man will set up a banquet for you to catch the wind and wash the dust! Then I will write you a letter, and you can send someone directly to the barracks!" I just don't know if 4,000 people are enough?"

Liu Haojia Liansheng said: "Enough, enough! Deal with a few salt merchants, more than 100 people per team! There may not be a fight, the biggest problem is how to see that the gold and silver are not stolen!"

Xu Guogong also laughed when he heard this, and then said, "You're right, that's the truth! But you can't let these old man's soldiers run for nothing, can you?"

Liu Haojia said with understanding: "Grandpa Guo, don't worry, the younger generation still understands the rules! It's not good to tell the brothers to run for nothing!"

Hear Liu

Haojia said this, Xu Guogong was even more satisfied! It seems that this year I can save a military salary into my own pocket! So he immediately wrote a letter and handed it to Liu Haojia. And Liu Haojia called two followers to hand over the letter to them, and told them to leave after some advice! He himself stayed in the mansion of the Duke of Xu to receive hospitality.

The two family members took the letter back to the dock, and waited until the city gate was closed before arranging for a large number of brocade guards on the ship to disembark and rush to the military camp outside the city overnight! After arriving at the barracks, the two sent Xu Guogong's letter, and several officers immediately let them into the camp to rest.

Wait until dawn the next day, and the officers will pick up the soldiers and marshall! These brocade guards were not polite, and each selected the soldiers according to the tasks assigned on the ship!

In fact, Liu Haojia had already touched the situation of the people who needed to be arrested, so he directly assigned each team of Jinyi guards to lead a team of soldiers to arrest. Now that the preparations have been completed, just wait for the sailor to be in place, and you can send people to arrest people!

In the evening, Liu Haojia also came to the military camp outside the city! At this time, the brocade guards under him had already mingled with those soldiers, and the officers at all levels had already regarded these brocade guards as superiors and completely seized the leadership of each team!

At the beginning, Liu Haojia and Zhang Juzheng discussed the team of Jinyiwei as a witness to follow the family! The reason why he gave in advance was that he knew that Zhang Juzheng would not let Jinyiwei have the opportunity to take advantage of this! That's why he took the initiative to avoid it, which made Zhang Juzheng feel very satisfied!

But as the saying goes, there are policies and countermeasures! Then Liu Haojia told his subordinates that they must get control of the team, and the purpose is to establish power! Jinyiwei has been silent for a long time, and many officials are no longer afraid of them, so this time let them recall the fear brought by Jinyiwei! As for how to deal with those soldiers, it's just one word, money!

These brocade guards naturally understand when they receive orders! When they arrived at the barracks and formed the group, they described to them how the Jinyi guards raided their homes in the past and how much silver they get. Tell these officers and soldiers that they will get the silver if they listen to my command! Don't listen to the command! I can't get a penny!

Needless to say, the soldiers below are all poor and afraid! I heard that there is money to take, so naturally whoever gives the money listens to whom! Those officers are not very official, although they can drink some soldier blood and eat some empty pay on weekdays, but they are just maintaining a well-off life, and there is no way to get rich! Now that they are being fooled by these brocade guards, they will give up their command one by one!
