Chapter 325 Revenge Begins

Chapter 325

Zhu Xinlong said to Zhang Hao that he hoped that Zhang Hao would hold his hand high and let those salt merchants go. Zhang Hao immediately asked, if those merchants were let go, what would happen to the salt shortage?
"Well, didn't we find a lot of salt today? The salt is probably able to withstand a period of time!" Zhu Xinlong said after thinking about it.

"Then according to what you said, they were bullying me. I didn't find the salt, and they said no. I found it, but you said you wanted me to let them go. Why, you guys teamed up to bully me?" Zhang Hao looked at Zhu Xinlong with an unhappy face and asked.

"No, it's really not, nephew, you misunderstood, how did I get together with them!" Zhu Xinlong said immediately, clasping his hands.

"If you are not united, how can you plead with them? You know, I just received the appointment to rectify the matter of salt and iron tea. Before I started, those salt merchants gave me a slap in the face. Why? Now, I, Zhang Hao, are easy to bully. Before I started to act, they stopped selling salt and used this to hit me in the face? Uncle, my face is so easy to hit, and I am so easy to bully?" Zhang Hao looked at Zhu Xinlong questioned,

Zhu Xinlong quickly waved his hand and said: "My nephew said this is serious, it is really serious, my nephew, you see this is also a misunderstanding, they probably don't know what measures you will take, so take precautions, you Right? You have a lot of adults in this matter, let them go!"

"If I let them go, can the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate let me go? Will I let those prisoners go without permission? Will they let me go? Also, those officials in the court, can they let me go?" Zhang Hao continued to face him asked.

"Don't worry, they will definitely not impeach this matter. Those ministers also know that if those salt merchants are really arrested, the people of my Daming will be in chaos!" Zhu Xinlong said to Zhang Hao,

Zhang Hao sat there and thought about it. Before that, Zhang Hao planned to release those salt merchants, just to let them find a relationship. Zhang Hao wanted to catch them all. , to give them a chance to take revenge on themselves, now that Zhu Xinlong actually came to intercede, then let the situation go!
"Okay, uncle, you give me a guarantee, that is, if I let those salt merchants go, those people in the court will not impeach me. If you impeach me, you will be responsible!" Zhang Hao thought about it, and said to Zhu Xinlong.

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely help here. You also know that King Jin is in the capital. I will send a letter to you right away. Then I will let King Jin talk to you in the capital!" Zhu Xinlong listened When Zhang Hao agreed, he immediately said to Zhang Hao.

"Okay, let's wait until the afternoon. It's impossible to say that I just released him after I was arrested, and I don't have face!" Zhang Haodui said at Zhu Xinlong,

Zhu Xinlong nodded with a smile, and then said to Zhang Hao: "When are you free here, how about going to my house for a day?"

"Forget it, I won't go, I still want to go back to the capital as soon as possible, this place is not fun!" Zhang Hao waved his hand and said.

"That's fine, you need my help here, just ask, I will definitely help you here!" Zhu Xinlong said to Zhang Hao, still very happy in his heart,

If those salt merchants are released, there is still a way to get the table salt that is being confiscated now, and the court will still have to pay the money. After all, there is so much salt, and the court can’t just take it away, that’s for sure It is for money, this money, I will ask Zhang Hao for it when the time comes!

"Okay, thank you uncle!" Zhang Hao smiled and said to Zhu Xinlong,
After chatting for a while, Zhu Xinlong left, and Zhang Hao escorted him to the door of the wing. Seeing the back of Zhu Xinlong leaving, Zhang Hao sneered, and then went back to the wing, where he sat and made tea,

At noon, Shen Lian came over and reported today's arrest to Zhang Hao. The family members of those salt merchants were all arrested, and the shopkeepers of those salt merchants' homes were also controlled. The salt was obtained. Nearly 400 million dan, enough for the people of the Ming Dynasty to consume for half a year, those salt merchants actually said that there was not so much table salt.

"Go outside and tell those salt merchants that I let them go out because of the plea of ​​General Zhu Xinlong Fuguo!" Zhang Hao confessed to Shen Lian.

"My lord, didn't you say that you want to let them go?" Shen Lian heard that, this is wrong, why did he still say that it was Zhu Xinlong who interceded?
"That's what I planned before, let's give them some hope now? Otherwise, how could they continue to go on? This matter is not so simple!" Zhang Hao smiled at Shen Lian and said.

"Understood, my lord, I'll make arrangements now!" Shen Lian nodded and left.

And at this time Yu Dafang came over and wanted to treat Zhang Hao to dinner, Zhang Hao would definitely be happy, why not eat for free,
On the capital side, Jiajing is sitting there at the moment, and there is no news yet. I just know that Zhang Hao has set off from Xuanhua to Taiyuan yesterday, but I don't know what is going on in Taiyuan.

At this moment, Jiajing was a little worried, worried that Zhang Hao would not be able to handle this matter well. My purpose this time was to suppress Prince Jin, and at the same time, suppressed the other princes. The current salt and pig iron had shadows of those princes behind them. The money from Guichaotang ended up in the pockets of those vassal kings. How could Jiajing be satisfied with this, but he was worried that Zhang Hao's wisdom might not be so strong and would be attracted to King Jin.

"Lu Fang, do you think I should write a letter and tell Zhang Hao what the purpose of this matter is?" Jiajing asked, looking at Lu Fang with his hands behind his back.

"Your majesty, didn't you explain it to him?" Lu Fang asked, looking at Jiajing in surprise.

"No, I just hope that King Jin can agree to deduct the extra money, but Zhang Hao may not understand why he wants to do this!" Jiajing looked at Lu Fang and shook his head.

"This, Your Majesty, this, how could Zhang Hao know what to do? This servant thought you had made it clear to Zhang Hao!" Lu Fang immediately looked at Jiajing with disbelief when she heard this.

"I am careless, I am careless, you go to grind the ink, I will write a letter right away, hand it over to Zhang Hao, let Zhang Hao handle it well, this time we must suppress those vassal kings, King Jin is the first, the others The vassal lord can't let it go!" Jiajing immediately said to Lu Fang.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" As soon as Lu Fang heard this, she went over to grind the ink,

After a while, Jiajing was just sitting there writing.After finishing writing, he immediately said to Lu Fang: "Hu Zongxian hasn't gone yet, you go and ask, if not, give him the letter and ask him to bring it to Zhang Hao!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, this servant will do it now. If Hu Zongxian is gone, I will ask Jin Yiwei to send someone to deliver him!" Lu Fang said immediately, clasping her hands.

"Okay!" Jiajing nodded, feeling a little relieved in his heart.
In the afternoon, after the salt merchants came out, they immediately went to Zhu Xinlong's mansion.

"My lord, help, help, our family members have all been arrested!" Those salt merchants came to Zhu Xinlong's living room and immediately knelt down and kowtowed.

"No, didn't Zhang Hao let you go? He promised me to let you go!" Zhu Xinlong looked at those people in surprise and asked, then he thought something was wrong, and said in front of Zhang Hao this morning that he let them go The salt merchants did not say that the family members of those salt merchants were released.

"No, my lord, if Zhang Hao can let our family members go, it would be great!" Fan Tianming immediately said to Zhu Xinlong.

"Here. Okay, I'll go find Zhang Hao!" Zhu Xinlong also stood up. If the family members are not released, what's the use of releasing the salt merchants?This matter is not still a problem.

"My lord, wait a minute, my lord, now I think Zhang Hao will not let him go! The key now is how to respond to the court. Zhang Hao took away all our salt, which is worth tens of millions Two silver coins!" Fan Tianming stopped Zhu Xinlong and said.

"At that time, the court will definitely pay for it. It is impossible to just snatch it away. If it is robbed, the ministers of the court will not agree!" Zhu Xinlong immediately said to them.

"But, those ministers, can they shake Zhang Hao? Zhang Hao is protected by the emperor!" Wang Chongyi looked at Zhu Xinlong worriedly.

"How can my Ming Dynasty rob merchants of money and spread the word, how can my Ming Dynasty establish a country?" Zhu Xinlong stared at Wang Chongyi and said.

"That's good, that's good, my lord, if we can get the money, then those family members are not in a hurry. Now we want Zhang Hao to ride a tiger. Since he has captured our family members, we must find a way to get Zhang Hao to arrest them." Please come out and bring it back!" Wang Chongyi said very ferociously at the moment, he has more than 100 million dans of salt in his family, he didn't expect to bring it all in one pot this time, and now he can't even go home, but luckily he still has some money in his pocket, But not many, otherwise they wouldn't even have a place to live tonight.

"Let Zhang Hao send it back? How to send it back?" Zhu Xinlong looked at them a little confused and asked.

"This time Zhang Hao robbed us of our salt, which was against my law of the Ming Dynasty. It was also against the law of the Ming Dynasty to seize our house. We didn't violate the law. How could he seize it?" Zhang Sijiao also shouted angrily.
In any case, Zhang Hao can't arrest their family members. Although they wrote a note saying that there is no salt, they can't be seized. , to those ministers, those ministers will definitely be able to kill Zhang Hao,
Even if half of the salt is taken out, it will be more than 1000 million taels. They don't believe that Zhang Hao can't be brought down with so much money. Those ministers, seeing so much money, don't attack Zhang Hao madly. Those family members of the family can also be released.
