Liu Tingyuan knew: Jinyiwei arrested people, but he didn't need evidence.

If someone is arrested, the evidence will naturally be tried;

Even if he is not guilty, he can be judged in prison.

"Chen Zuoting", the conductor, refused to eat hard and soft, and Liu Tingyuan almost gave up.

However, after he captured Liu Tingchen, he did not go north directly to return to Beijing, but made a detour from Fujian to Xiaoshan.

In Liu Tingyuan's view, this is an excellent opportunity to catch people!

It was even more deliberate by Wang Li!

It's just that Wang Li's "whoever dares to rob a prisoner will be killed" gave Liu Tingyuan a heartbreak!

Signaling to step back left and right, Wang Li picked up the wine bowl and said, "Lord Shangshu, the number of times the factory and Wei Gonggong have drunk tea is much more than that of you and Cui Chengxiu!" ”

These words seem to be a threat, but Liu Tingyuan's eyes lit up!

"Factory, what do you mean ......?"

"The corruption case between Han Yiming and Qian Qianyi, Long Live Lord is extremely angry! When the factory went south, Long live the master specially explained:

Those who are corrupt for more than 500 taels, as long as the evidence is conclusive, do not need to report it, and they will all be peeled and grassed! ”

Wang Li's voice was very loud, and the guards and brocade guards who were guarding nearby all heard it!

However, Wang Li seemed to be righteous and righteous, but Liu Tingyuan saw a glimmer of life!

Because, Wang Li did not peel Liu Tingchen to the grass, but escorted him to Beijing!

Moreover, from Fujian to Xiaoshan, this is not clear!

"Factory father! Xia Guan and his younger brother are like brothers! He has committed a crime, and this official has no reason to be partial!

But, after all, he is my brother!

Therefore, please also ask the factory to make a convenient ......"

While speaking, Liu Tingyuan handed over a stack of silver tickets.

Five thousand taels!

Wang Li smiled coldly, patted the silver ticket carelessly, and shook his head: "Lord Shangshu, the relationship between you and your younger brother doesn't seem to be good!"

In your eyes, his life is only worth five thousand taels?

Or is the factory only worth 5,000 taels? ”

"Factory Gong, you know, the military department of Nandu can't be compared with the Beijing Division!

Moreover, the lower officials are honest and honest, and they really can't get much silver, so ......"

Liu Tingyuan smiled all over his face, and while speaking, he handed over a stack of silver tickets.

In total, 10,000 taels.

Wang Li was displeased, but he didn't show it, and waved his hand: "Come on, escort Liu Tingchen to Xiaoshan, and the factory will personally interrogate you!" ”

When the sound fell, several brocade guards jumped onto the boat and hurriedly chased after it.

In the middle of the night, Liu Tingchen was taken and handed over to Liu Tingyuan.

However, Liu Tingyuan always felt that something was wrong!

"Lord Wang, your brother has already handed it over to you, please!"

Wang made an order to expel the guests, but Liu Tingyuan refused to leave: "Factory Gong, the ...... of the Ordnance Bureau Twenty-six others ......"

"Alas, Lord Shangshu, you and your brother are like brothers, and the factory will sell you face and return him to you;

But you have nothing to do with the other twenty-six, so you can't afford to spend money on them, can you? ”

Wang Li had a harmless expression, and Liu Tingyuan was so angry that he scolded his mother!

You only handed over Liu Tingchen to me, what is the matter?

If you enter the edict of your Xichang prison, or hand it over to the Criminal Department, those twenty-six people will not bite out Liu Tingchen?

Liu Tingyuan knew what he was planning, but he had no choice!

"Factory father, the remaining twenty-six people, you make a price!"

"Master Shangshu, you have nothing to do with them, can you afford to spend money?"

Wang Li was still pretending to be confused, and Liu Tingyuan was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he didn't dare to offend.

"Factory man, five thousand taels and one, enough sincerity!"

"Well said, well said! Since Lord Shangshu has spoken, the factory will sell you face!

It's just that these people have nothing to do with you, so you really don't need to break the bank! ”

Wang Li is still pretending to be stupid!

Liu Tingyuan really wants to stab this guy to death with a sword!

It's a pity that he didn't dare!

Only silver tickets can be offered!

So, after daybreak, the big ship was ordered to return.

Twenty-six corrupt officers were released.

Chen Wangting and Song Zhe each received several silver tickets.

After several hesitations, Song Zhe put it into his arms, and his face was happy.

Chen Wangting, on the other hand, was pale.

Even, there is a hint of murder!

In fact, Wang Li also wanted to hide it from everyone, but it was obviously impossible.

"What do you mean?"

Chen Wangting slapped the silver ticket on the table, clenched the long sword, and was murderous!

Wang Li's heart tightened, but his face did not change.

"Brother Chen, I said yesterday:

Let's go to the Ordnance Bureau to get people, that's not the main purpose!

Do you understand the truth? ”

Chen Wangting shook his head and stared at Wang Li, wanting to see through this person's heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys!

"Alas! The court is mediocre, and traitors are in charge! ”

Wang Li sighed, pretending to be distressed: "Corrupt officials will never be caught!"

It is a big deal to have a reliable person in charge of the Ordnance Bureau and provide reliable ordnance support for Inspector Yuan!

Let's make money from corrupt officials, and the Ordnance Bureau will be able to make more muskets and artillery, and the people will not suffer!

Do you understand the truth? ”

Chen Wangting thought for a long time and nodded.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Wang Lishai gave Chen Wangting a stack of silver tickets.

Enough, 100,000 taels!

"Brother Chen, Fujian Ordnance Bureau, you will take over for the time being!

Supervise the manufacture of guns and ordnance, only if I hand it over to you, I can rest assured!

Regardless of whether the Ministry of Industry or the Fujian Political Department comes, you must protect the Ordnance Bureau!

Can you do it? ”

"Humph! Dare to snatch something in the hands of my Chen Wangting, a dead end!

Whoever dares to engage in corruption in the Ordnance Bureau is also a dead end!

Don't worry, I'll go to Fujian! No one dares to mess around! ”

Wang Li nodded solemnly, and Chen Wangting's face was full of joy and left in a hurry.

Alas!

100,000 taels of silver, just gone!

No way!

That Chen Wangting, his intestines are too straight!

Only in this way can we stabilize him and make him use it for himself!

……

flotilla, continue along the coast.

Target, Hai Ningwei.

In Wang Li's view, if Zhejiang only builds a port, from the current water and land transportation, only Haining and Xiaoshan are the best places.

"Factory father, have you considered the consequences when you released the twenty-seven people from the Ordnance Bureau?"

"Even if they all peel the grass and do it no good! Why don't you sell some silver and raise money to make more guns! ”

"Factory father, what you said, all your subordinates understand!

It's just that we took down the twenty-seven people of the Ordnance Bureau, didn't you send Li Gao to report long live the master......"

I'll go!

How did you forget about this!

Flying to the Beijing Division, it was yesterday afternoon!

Since it is a "flying newspaper", it is a carriage and horse through the post station, running to Beijing 24 hours a day!

Nima!

The big boat that escorts the prisoners, the small boat can catch up!

How can the carriage and horses that flew to Beijing a day ago catch up?

I'll go!

It's a big deal!

Zhu You will ask for someone from himself!

What can I do?

What shall you give to him?

However, the money has already been collected!

If you take people back, won't you lose your credibility?

If you want to return the money and replace people, don't say that Liu Tingyuan won't agree, and I won't agree either!

When you eat the silver in your mouth, how can you spit it out?

"Factory father, or ...... Let's disguise ourselves as Dongchang and quickly chase people back? ”

"East Factory?"

Wang Li shook his head.

With the relationship between Liu Tingyuan and Cui Chengxiu, will Dongchang take his younger brother?

"Factory father, or ...... Let's disguise ourselves as thieves? ”

"Alas! That's all there is to it! Wang Li sighed helplessly: "You can do this matter yourself!" Don't show your feet! ”

"Don't worry! Not a single one can escape! ”

……

The flotilla arrived in Hainingwei.

Due to various reasons, it originated from the "military household system" in the early Ming Dynasty, and at this time it has been replaced by the "recruitment system"!

Hainingwei, there is not a single soldier stationed!

Here, it was not the prefect of Hangzhou and the prefect of Haining who greeted Wang Li, but Zheng Zhilong!

That's right, it's the pirate Zheng Zhilong!

Hearing that Zheng Zhilong was coming, officials of all sizes in Zhejiang had already fled without a trace.

At this time, Zheng Zhilong's huge fleet stopped on the sea in the dark.

The muzzles of the black holes are all aimed at the fishing port...... A temporary "Governor's House" on the shore.

Actually, it's just a few tents!

"Good for you, Wang Li! Sure enough, a little bold! ”

"Prizes, prizes!" Wang Li smiled faintly and glanced up and down at the man in front of him: "Since you're here, let's call Zheng Zhilong over!"

I dare to come in person, doesn't he dare to go ashore? ”

"What a big breath! Our big boss, is it what you want to see? ”

"If he didn't want to see the factory father, he wouldn't have led the army here! Is it so difficult to get you to pass on a message? ”

"That's right! The boss really wants to meet you!

However, it is not him who comes ashore to meet him, but you who take a boat and go to the sea to meet him! ”

"Since you are as cowardly as a mouse, don't you see it!"

Wang Li turned his head and left, but was stopped by the man: "Aren't you afraid of our cannon?" ”

"Your boss is a businessman, he can't shoot!"

Wang Li smiled, swaggered to the tent, and ignored this person.

Wang Li is sure that Zheng Zhilong will not open fire!

Because, this is a fishing port!

There are hundreds of fishermen stationed there, and there are also merchants who come from far and wide.

In the information that Wang Li knew, Zheng Zhilong hated the government and the Dutch, but he was very kind to the people!

Not only did he not kill the people, but he relieved the poor and sent the people to "Jilong Mountain" to live and work in peace and contentment, and his prestige was higher than that of the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

However, if he wanted to board the ship to meet him, Wang Li was still a little jealous.

After all, it's a bunch of pirates!

If there is a slight disagreement in the words, I don't know how I died!

And Zheng Zhilong must have been attracted by the "preferential policies" of the new port!

He will meet him!

Wang Li, I guessed correctly!

In the evening, a few small boats leaned against the shore!

The person who came was Zheng Zhilong!

This is a young man in his twenties, with a burly body, bright eyes, and full of confidence and domineering.

"Factory Father!" Zheng Zhilong arched his hand and smiled disdainfully: "You were ordered to build a port, but you were messing around in Haining!" Swaggering all day long, you're not afraid of losing your head? ”

"Master Zheng, you are not afraid of losing your head as a pirate, what am I afraid of?"

Wang Li smiled and pointed to a stack of boats: "Is the factory really swaggering?" Where does this begin?

Just yesterday, five treasure ships had already gone to sea carrying porcelain and sugar, and the Jinyi guard of the West Factory did not intercept it, right?

Where did they go, Xichang Jinyiwei didn't ask more! ”

Zheng Zhilong smiled indifferently, without comment, Wang Li continued:

"In the port of the factory, the business introduction is only issued to the Shunmin of the Ming Dynasty!

Since it is a good citizen, it will not smuggle and evade taxes!

However, in the port of the factory, no one risks losing their heads to smuggle and evade taxes!

Because here, as long as you pay the money, you can sell anything!

It doesn't matter if you sell sugar, chinan, musk, deerskin or a woman slave, no matter who you sell to, as long as you go through the formalities, everything is easy to say!

Zheng Da is in charge, do you want to continue to be a pirate, or be a Shunmin of the Ming Dynasty? ”

"The law of your court is that "those who pass through the widow shall be beheaded"; You little Admiral of Xichang, do you really dare to know the law and break the law? ”

"Oops! You're scared to death! Wang Li pretended to be frightened, and soon smiled again:

"Zheng Da is in charge, I heard that the women of the Japanese Kingdom are all gentle and virtuous, can you help introduce a few?"

Wang Li's words made Zheng Zhilong cry and laugh.

However, he didn't show weakness, and immediately put away his smile: "Being a eunuch can grow a beard, and the factory is the first person in the world!" ”

When it comes to the beard, Wang Li secretly screams that it is not good!

I've been on the road all this time, and I don't have time to take care of my beard!

On weekdays, civil and military officials all know about their fake beards, and no one dares to look at them directly!

But I didn't want to, Zheng Zhilong saw a flaw! 47 It's a big deal!
