The second day of November.

Because the 'Yuanrong Gang' is the worst among the three gangs in terms of force, financial resources and trading, coupled with the slow scheduling of the new gang leaders, they are constrained everywhere, and sometimes they can't even figure out how much silver they have taken out, how much wheat they have collected, and how much corn they have collected.

Zuo Qizhi and Huo Wuyang really looked awkward, so they abandoned it, without the support of the silver two, and did not send people to help, the 'Yuan Rong Gang' rested early.

On this day, without the drag of the 'Yuanrong Gang', the 'Fenghuomen' and the 'Xianwei Gang' were quite easy and smooth, and they collected more than 400,000 taels of silver without much effort, but exceeded the 330,000 taels of the 'Dayou Rice Hang' and the 80,000 taels of the 'Yangdao League'.

The third day of November.

On this day, the "Fenghuomen" and the "Xianwei Gang" received the most grain because of the highest price, and collected more than 600,000 taels of silver, while the "Dayou Rice Bank" only collected more than 200,000 taels.

The fourth day of November.

The 'Yangdao League' had a severe shortage of cash and stopped collecting rice, and the 'Dayou Rice Bank' collected more than 100,000 taels of rice, and the 'Fenghuomen' and 'Xianwei Gang' collected more than 800,000 taels.

The fifth day of November.

The 'Fenghuomen' and the 'Xianwei Gang' continued to collect grain, and the price of the 'Dayou Rice Shop' remained unchanged, because the high-ranking people of the Second Gang rushed to sell the grain to the people of the Second Gang, which was several times more than in the past, and the people in charge of collecting the grain were very happy that those who came did not refuse, but what they didn't know was that there were also people in other places today who sold a large amount of grain, and these people seemed to have negotiated and sold all the grain to the 'Fenghuomen' and the 'Xianwei Gang' without hesitation.

In the afternoon, when the nearest person in charge of collecting grain turned back to the gang, Zuo Qizhi and Huo Wuyang suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly summoned his subordinates to summon people who collected grain, but it was already a step too late, all the people who were sent out to collect grain had already returned with a full load, and there was no silver left, and the silver was exhaustedIt is impossible for the 'Yang Dao Alliance' to sell their own grain to them, and even if the grain in the hands of the 'Yang Dao Alliance' is sold to them, they can eat it.

This year, the rudder of the two gangs of 'Bingjia' and 'Yuanrong' was burned, and there was a lack of manpower in the branch hall and no one to take care of it.

November 6.

The price of the grain shops of the 'Yangdao League' is similar to the price of last year's grain, and they are more than sixty percent higher, and they can make a lot of money by selling the 'Yangdao League' at the same price, and they will inevitably lose money, and if they do not sell, there may be no proper storage place, and the rented place will cost a lot of silver taels every day. The grain merchants who cooperated with the two gangs have complained when they heard the news.

The seventh day of November.

A strange scene appeared, all the 'armor gang' industry, Tangkou all changed its appearance, renamed 'Dayou Rice Shop', all Tangkou were temporarily changed into grain shops, not only selling wheat and corn, but also rice for sale, the price was surprisingly consistent with the 'Yang Dao League', and what was even more strange was that several newspapers had been published on full pages at the same time as the opening of the rice store, as if they had been prepared in advance.

The yamen sent someone to check, the 'Dayou Rice Shop' had been registered in the Yamen a few years ago, and the store also had a lease contract with the 'Bingjia Gang' in hand, and the signature under the contract was the Bingqi seal, and the title deed of these branches, including the helmsman of the 'Bingjia Gang', was the name of the Bingqi seal.

By now, Zuo Qizhi and Huo Wuyang already knew that the 'Dayou Rice Travel' and the 'Yangdao Alliance' were indeed one family, and the previous two gangs were fighting to collect grain, one was to raise the price of grain so that they would receive grain at a higher price, and the other was to use real money to dispel their thoughts, and the ridiculous thing was that Huo Wuyang's traitor in the 'Yangdao League' not only failed to help, but also confirmed that the 'Yangdao Alliance' was in short supply of silver, and it was absolutely impossible to use tens of thousands of taels of silver to get along with him, let alone have it. With the support of such a huge grain merchant as the rice bank, in fact, it is no wonder that they think like that, because the partners of the previous 'Yangdao Alliance' have left one after another under the repeated pressure of the yamen, and they are clear about how much silver they have taken away, carefully calculate the short days of the 'Yangdao Alliance' to build a gang, and the silver earned will be deducted from the accumulated goods, and the gang rudder and branch hall will be built, and then it is impossible to have so much silver except for the families of the bereaved gang, even the 'Six Dragons Gang' can't do it, let alone the 'Yangdao Alliance', but the most unlikely thing still happened.

When the people sent by the Yamen found out the title deed of the Bingqi seal in the 'Dayou Mixing', Li Lin suddenly realized why the people of the 'Inner Governor's Mansion' spared no effort to get rid of the Bingqi seal, it turned out that this defeated bare-bones gang leader actually had such a trick, the other party's land deed lease was in hand, Li Lin did not dare to act rashly, and the matter was reported to Wu Jingguo overnight, and Wu Jingguo summoned everyone to discuss, and he had to think about it.

November 8.

Chen Yuting, the land of 'Hubu Shangshu', played the land of 'Zhongzhou', the 'Yangdao League' and the 'Dayou Rice Shop' hoarded and manipulated grain prices, and the people suffered greatly, so that the tax was insufficient, and the court used it more tightly, asking the emperor to punish him. This performance can be described as killing two birds with one stone, not only taking the opportunity to deal with the 'Yang Dao League' and 'Dayou Rice Bank', but also relieving the responsibility of his own tax shortage.

When the emperor heard this, he was furious, and immediately ordered that the 'Yang Dao Alliance' and the 'Dayou Mixing' be confiscated with 300,000 taels of silver each, in order to set an example. Under the will, there was an inspection envoy Zhang He, saying that the land of "Zhongzhou", "Fenghuomen", and "Xianwei Gang" colluded with grain merchants to control grain prices over the years, deliberately suppressed the collection of grain, and sold grain at a high price, resulting in the people's hard work and insufficient payment of taxes, and the annual income could not be satisfied.

When the emperor heard this, he was furious, and ordered that "Fenghuomen", "Xianwei Gang" and "Yangdao Alliance" and "Dayoumi Xing" were guilty of the same crime, and each was fined 300,000 taels of silver, which was handed over within half a month, and those who could not be handed over were immediately confiscated and confiscated, and Li Lin supervised the handling. Immediately afterwards, he ordered the inspection of Gao Kuo's family property.

It's night.

After the government gathered again, the 'Hubu Shangshu' Chen Yuting seemed to be on the list, everyone hated Zhang He to the core, reacted slowly to Li Lin, and was extremely dissatisfied with his incompetence, but they provoked the matter, and they couldn't hold Zhang He's handle for a while, so they had to temporarily suppress the anger in their chests.

November 10.

The Divine Decree was transmitted to 'Zhongzhou', 'Fenghuomen' and ' Xianwei Gang's headache, a family of 300,000 taels of cash is categorically unable to take out in their current situation, Li Lin can't count on it, there is no money at the yamen, although the adults are greedy for a lot of silver taels, and those who are willing to join the gang have already entered the gang in the name of grain merchants, and those who have not joined the gang are impossible to take out for their use, Wu Jingguo has already produced a lot of silver taels, and the rest is in response to other changes, and it is impossible to make up for this hole because of small losses.

November 11.

'Fenghuomen' and 'Xianwei Gang' began to sell directly at a loss at a price lower than the price of 'Dayou Rice Xing' and 'Yangdao League'......

Within one day, the price of grain in 'Zhongzhou' plummeted by three percent, the farmers who had sold grain at a high price had secretly called for luck, and those who sold low were waiting for grain prices to continue to fall, but there were not many people who bought grain, especially the two gangs of 'wind and fire' and 'Xianwei' were notorious, and the 'Xianwei Gang' grain was mixed with sand and gravel and other things as everyone knows, and no one cares about it without a price advantage. The Yang Dao League's 'stubborn staring, and the pretended firm was publicized by the 'Yang Dao League' for the first time, and the two gangs changed their heads and re-rented shops to sell, and their heels were unstable and were publicized again.

Within three days, the two gangs were constrained everywhere, and the 'Yang Dao Alliance' relied on its reputation as genuine in the past, and only set the price of grain in line with the 'Fenghuomen' and 'Xianwei Gang', and the two gangs could no longer sell it. The so-called 'blessing is unequaled to misfortune is not a single line', and the grain merchants and others who cooperated with the two gangs regretted not falling, and stepped on the threshold of the two gangs every day to ask for the withdrawal of the gang, and some of them directly raised the teacher to ask for the guilt, and the situation was more comparable to the original 'Yang Dao Alliance'.

The two gangs of 'Fenghuo' and 'Xianwei' were punished, and some knowledgeable wealthy businessmen were afraid that the 'Yuanrong Gang', which had always been in collusion, would also be robbed, so they went to find the new gang leader to quit the gang.

November 12th.

The imperial court investigated Gao Kuo's family property and turned it into 173,208 gold (silver), and after investigation and verification, Gao Kuo was greedy for nearly 400,000 gold (silver) during his tenure.

So 'checking' became 'copying', Gao Kuo was arrested and imprisoned, all the gold and silver property was returned to the treasury, and the household department was accounted for, and one wife and thirteen concubines in his family were full of border plugs because they did not fulfill their duties of exhortation, and helped to rise.

Gao Kuo took office for a short time, spendthrift and had more than 170,000 family properties, the emperor was furious, and ordered that all those who were related to Gao Kuo in the court should be strictly investigated.

November 15.

In desperation, the two gangs lowered the price again, and the price of grain was cut in half, this time the 'Yang Dao League' and 'Dayou Rice Travel' no longer followed, and the people of 'Zhongzhou' began to buy on a large scale, and the two gangs got more than 200,000 taels of silver a day, but these grains were recovered with 400,000 taels of silver, plus the cost of renting a house, transporting back and forth, and helping the workers to pay for the workers, etc., the loss was almost seventy percent.

On the evening of the same day, the partnership grain merchants came to the door again, opposing the practice of selling grain at a low price to the two gangs, and asked to withdraw the gang, quarreling until the morning, Zuo Huo and the two did not agree to withdraw the gang, and advocated a win-win situation if the profit is a win-win situation, and the loss is a common loss, and the grain merchants had no choice but to ask for the grain to be paid, and the original price of the grain collected by the two gangs was offset by the money of the partnership, Zuo Huo and the two felt quite embarrassed, on the one hand, they sold grain at half price, and on the other hand, they were repaid at the original price, which seemed to be appropriate, but once this head was raised, there would never be peace, the two did not dare to let go, and they were entangled until noon, Zuo Huo was really annoyed and beat people out, but secretly returned some grain to some prefects, the imperial envoy, the governor's seven aunts and eight aunts.

The situation of the two gangs has further driven the decline of the 'Yuanrong Gang', and more and more people are asking to quit the gang, and the new gang leader is still unable to cope with the previous batch of people who have withdrawn from the gang, which has increased several times, and there is only a hurry.

November 16.

After verification, Gao Kuo's nephews, fathers-in-law, brothers-in-law, friends, and more than 40 officials were planted in various places in 'Zhongzhou' by his hands, and the emperor only had one word - 'do', and the prefect of 'Danhe Mansion' bore the brunt of it, and it was taken down when he was playing blasphemy, so these officials who were still showing off their might ten days ago suddenly became prisoners.

The sudden severity of the atmosphere made Wu Jingguo a little flustered, and discussed with everyone overnight, everyone thought that the situation seemed to be a little wrong, and Master Li began to contact the masters of the rivers and lakes again, 'Bairen Jingtang', 'Listen to the rain and read the sword tower', etc., and even the 'Juntian Jiuding', 'Jiuyoufu', 'One Place' These gang sects are all in contact, in short, everything that can be thought of must be contacted one by one to explore the truth and truth, and choose their attitude to try to buy in order to deal with possible changes.

The plan was set, and Wu Jingguo sent fifty masters of the 'Inner Governor's Mansion' to 'Zhongzhou' overnight to ask Zuo Huo and the others to return the 1.5 million taels of silver they had taken out before.
