Crossing the Swordsman: Lin Pingzhi, the Swordsman of Evil

Chapter 632
Just when Lin Pingzhi was still sentimental.

But Bai Qiushuang said: "Although you did not kill the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains and the leader of Songshan Mountain, tens of thousands of people died under the butcher's knife because of you. For your own wealth, you are willing to serve as a falcon for the faint king. But the people who died because of you are like a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, you who help the evildoers can be said to have committed a heinous crime."

Lin Pingzhi was confused by Bai Qiushuang's words for a moment.

Lin Pingzhi couldn't help asking at this time: "Why did Miss Fubai say this? I eat the king's salary and be loyal to the king. Everything I do is for the country and the people. The collection of fire consumption allows the people to reduce taxes. It relieves the pressure on the common people. Let every family have more money. And I advise to promote the planting of sweet potatoes and other crops, so that countless hungry people can be full. What I advise is for the country and the people. How can you help the tyrant? Besides, Long Live today is the sage lord, the rare lord of rejuvenation. How can you talk about a foolish lord?"

Bai Qiushuang snorted coldly and continued: "Oh? It seems that Master Lin is not willing to admit it? Well then, I will talk about everything Master Lin has done."

Bai Qiushuang said: "Before, the bankers of the Shanxi merchants in the capital offended Mr. Lin, but Mr. Lin made a big fuss by confiscating the banks of the Shanxi merchants. Afterwards, nearly ten thousand people from eight Jin merchants were killed and exiled. This matter?"

Hearing this incident, Lin Pingzhi replied frankly: "Yes! This incident was indeed investigated by my subordinates."

Bai Qiushuang looked at him and said, "Okay! Since you dare to admit it, it proves that you are still a good man."

Hearing Bai Qiushuang say this, many Jianghu people couldn't bear it anymore, and started to support Bai Qiushuang.

They all shouted flattery words such as Miss Bai's good words, and then began to curse Lin Pingzhi for being shameless.

But this is not because they sincerely support Bai Qiushuang, it's just because they have deposited a lot of silver in the banks of the eight major Shanxi merchants and earn high interest.

After all, doing business requires capital, and the capital chain cannot be broken.The eight major Shanxi merchants also have financial contacts with these Jianghu people who come with easy money.These people have been saving money in the banks of the eight major Shanxi merchants over the years, but they have earned a lot of interest.

In essence, these Jianghu people are also one of the beneficiaries of the interests of the eight Shanxi merchants who betrayed their country.It's just that they are depositors, and the court didn't bother them.It was just that all their silver was classified as Tibetan silver, and then it was all seized.

It is not easy for ordinary ordinary people to achieve a balance of income and expenditure without worrying about food and clothing.There is no money left in the bank.

And some wealthy businessmen were afraid of being implicated by the crimes of the eight Shanxi merchants, so they did not dare to ask for it.You can only suffer a dumb loss, and treat it as a loss of money in business.

And these people in the rivers and lakes have been confiscated by the court for all their money over the years, and they feel angry in their hearts.Now that Bai Qiushuang talked about this matter, they naturally wanted to follow suit.

Lin Pingzhi said: "The girl has a misunderstanding about this matter. The debt collectors of the Shanxi Merchants' Bank really offended me. And they lend usury, rob women of the people, and force them into prostitution. I will send someone to investigate and eliminate the harm for the people. Is there something wrong? If the girl doesn't believe it, the list of those women who were sold into brothels by this black-hearted bank is on the lobby of Fusi in my North Town. The girl can follow the map and ask these rescued girls. Is it so? "

After hearing the words, Bai Qiushuang was stunned.

Because what Lin Pingzhi said was not at all the same as what her mother Bai Yuheng said.

According to Bai Yuheng, the Eight Great Jin Merchants are eight honest and responsible merchants. It was only because the imperial court took a fancy to their wealth that they made a big fuss by charging them with unwarranted charges.

For this reason, she also took Bai Qiushuang to see the tragic situation when the families of the eight Jin merchants were killed, and also showed her the appearance of the female family members of the eight Jin merchants when they were bullied by Ming officials.And their miserable life after filling up with official prostitutes.

Because of Bai Yuheng's deliberate guidance, avoiding the important and paying attention to the minor, and taking the meaning out of context, Bai Qiushuang subconsciously believed that the eight Shanxi merchants were good people without asking the ins and outs.

She only saw the misery after the downfall of the eight major Shanxi merchants, but she didn't see how they sold people, forced them into prostitution, and usury forced other people's wives to be separated and their families to be destroyed.

However, seeing Lin Pingzhi's words are convincing, and there are even witnesses to testify, her confidence has also weakened a bit.

Then Bai Qiushuang said: "Even if there are such criminals under his sect, it's fine to punish the culprit. Why do you make a fuss and kill the whole family? Do you know the tragic situation when the eight major Shanxi merchants were ransacked and beheaded by their families? Their wives and daughters were murdered." How she looked when she was humiliated! This is all because of you."

After Lin Pingzhi heard the words, he replied: "Yes, this incident was indeed caused by me, and the family members of the eight major Shanxi merchants were indeed miserable. But this is all their own fault. They violated the royal law of confiscating their families and exterminating their families. Lin Pingzhi As the governor of Beizhen, it is natural to enforce the law impartially. Even if it hurts Chiyu, I have a clear conscience."

Bai Qiushuang trembled when she heard the words, pointed at Lin Pingzhi and cursed: "You are so cruel!"

Lin Pingzhi still said calmly: "It's not because I'm cruel, but they really deserve to die. If it's just usury and earning some black-hearted money, it's true that the crime is not enough to ransack the house, but my colleagues in the Beizhen Fusi are investigating When investigating their usury, they unexpectedly found evidence of the eight major Shanxi merchants as enemies."

"They have colluded with corrupt officials in the DPRK and China for many years, and have repeatedly resold supplies distributed by the imperial court to the frontier army. Moreover, they have also colluded with foreign enemies and informed the enemy of the route for the imperial court to deliver food and supplies."

"Afterwards, the enemy came to rob and kill the supplies of the officers and soldiers, and then the enemy army sold the looted supplies to them at a low price. Naturally, the court supplies were robbed and they had to make separate preparations. And they resold these supplies to the court at a high price. Seeking huge profits. They resold a batch of supplies at most five or six times. The ill-gotten gains are more than tens of millions?"

"The Bozhou Rebellion is at its last moment. Thousands of soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are bleeding and sweating on the front line, but they cannot get supplies and military supplies. What they are doing is tantamount to helping the rebels and murdering the country of the Ming Dynasty. The enemy is poisoning our people. These are traitors! Evil thieves! Rebels!"

"And they not only funded the rebels in Bozhou. According to the account books confiscated by the imperial court, they even had contacts with Japanese pirates in Dongying before. They sold gunpowder and other military supplies to Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the lord of Dongying, so that he could attack Goryeo. It is the emperor's grace to destroy the traitors without fathers and kings. If the law is followed, the nine clans should be punished. And those corrupt officials who collude with such profiteers and accept bribes are naturally worthy of death generation."

"And these are all accounts that can be checked, and these physical evidences are also in the Beizhen Fusi. If the girl wants to see it, I can use my authority to show the account books of these exhibits to the girl. According to my Beizhen Fusi There are all the accounts of their trafficking in people, prostitution, usury, collusion with the enemy, and the evidence of corruption by the court officials who were killed and ransacked, but I don’t know if the girl wants to read it.”

Hearing this, not only Bai Qiushuang, but also everyone in Jianghu was speechless.
