People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 345 Beating the shrew violently, setting up bureaus layer by layer

The sea ban does not mean that all the shipping departments in the world will be closed at the emperor's order.

Starting from the Taicang Shipbuilding Department, to the closure of Guangdong and Fujian later, it actually lasted for about three or four years.

These three or four years are a window period for the emperor to observe the situation.

Zhu Yuanzhang is not a brain-dead emperor who can do everything in one size fits all!
Zhang Yi knows this, but the others don't.

After the piracy case, all those merchants engaged in maritime trade were in danger.

Those who are more anxious than them are foreigners!

The mysterious East, the rich East...

Daming's tea, porcelain, and silk are all things they dream of.

If Daming banned sea trade, they would get less goods...

No wonder, glass mirrors are fired at such a high price...

Purely because of unknown anxiety and market demand.

Zhang Yi giggled, it's a good feeling.

It just happens to be able to harvest a wave, and if you don't make money, you don't make money.

"Brother Zhang, if you help us get things done, I'll give you this number!"

Shen Wansan stretched out five fingers, Zhang Yi exclaimed:

"5000 taels!"

Chen Ke and Shen Wansan twitched, this guy has a big appetite.

"I don't have so many. Old Shen experienced a raid by Yang Xian, but his vitality was seriously injured!"

Shen Wansan had never experienced Zhang Yi's style, so he was a bit at a loss, and began to cry poorly.

But he was really poor. The court never took businessmen seriously. Some of Shen Wansan's property to Yang Xian was returned to him, but many of them were confiscated by the court.

He kept his family, but his net worth has also shrunk by a little, so it's no wonder that Master Shen also seems to have lost a lot.

"If the matter is completed, I will give the little brother 500 taels of silver, if not, I will also have 100 taels of errands!"

Shen Wansan didn't talk nonsense, and directly pushed over a ticket.

Zhang Yi suddenly beamed with joy.

"Master Shen is arrogant, you kid was just joking!
500 taels of silver, that is wealth that a small person can never earn in his entire life!
Parents always said that they were afraid that I would not be able to marry a wife in the future, so Master Shen is helping the boy to marry a wife.

You are my second parent! "

Conne lowered his head, his shoulders twitching.

This kid Zhang Yi really got into the drama by pretending to be a low-level person.

"Master, look..."

"You can do whatever you want!"

Kong Na used all his strength to suppress his smile, but because of the hard work, the expression on his face was a little distorted.

"If the matter is done, we will remember the kindness of Master Kong..."

Kong Na waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need it.

After discussing the business, Zhang Yi and Kong Na left Zuixian Tower.

Once in the carriage, Zhang Yi gave Kong Na a 100 taels silver note.

"This is your referral fee!"

Kong Na couldn't laugh or cry, and wanted to push the thing back.

"Come on, although your Kong family is not short of money, you still depend on your family for food and clothing!
What we are focusing on is a brother who settles accounts clearly, let's go! "

After the carriage drove for a while, Zhang Yi saw that Lao Mo's carriage was still following.

After saying goodbye to Kong Na, he opened the door and jumped out of the car.

The carriage was not moving fast in the city, but his movement also surprised Conne.

But when he went out, he found that Zhang Yi had already gotten into his donkey cart.

"Old Mo, in a few days, you go to Runyu Hall and bring me something!"

Zhang Yi told Lao Mo that he didn't plan to meet Chen Ke through the Kong family's identity this time, and Lao Mo's identity was just right.

"Ok!"

Lao Mo looked calm, and the matter was settled.

When the carriage approached Qingxin Temple, they were about to open the door.

Zhang Yi suddenly heard shouting and cursing from the next door.

The so-called next door is actually the medicine garden.

Zhang Yi and Lao Mo looked at each other, and they decided to look around from the outside.

When they saw the scene, the brains of the two of them suddenly heated up.

I saw a few women yelling at the gate of the medicine garden. There are many things hanging on the gate...

it's poop...

These people even ran to the Taoist temple to throw dung.

Zhang Yi's face was covered with frost.

"You bastard, you must have stolen the man. I don't even know if the child in your stomach belongs to Lao Meng!"

"I used to see you seduce men when you were in the village. The family has no good things!"

"Why did my old Meng meet you? If he hadn't provoked you, he would still be alive and well!"

"Bitch, quickly return our Meng family's silver!"

……

"Old Mo! Beat me up..."

Zhang Yi pointed at these women with sullen expression.

Lao Mo frowned slightly, but did not move yet. ,

Zhang Yi shouted loudly: "

"Splashing dung here is blasphemy, and the Supreme Lord Sanqing sent down divine punishment, which is the karmic retribution of cutting off children and grandchildren!
Do we still want the reputation of Longhushan? "

Those folk women were shocked when they saw Zhang Yi and the others coming and heard Zhang Yi talking about ghosts and gods.

Hearing this, Lao Mo went up and knocked the woman who yelled the most fiercely to the ground with a slap.

The women were terrified:

"How can you hit someone?"

Zhang Yi sneered:

"Pimpedao not only wants to beat people, but also wants to report to officials!"

"That bitch has corrupted my Meng family's property, can we still ask?"

Seeing Zhang Yi using force, the momentum of those women weakened.

Wealth moves people's hearts.

1000 taels of silver, in Zhang Yi's view, is less than the profit of a mirror, but in the eyes of Lao Meng's family members, it is a wealth that will never be seen in a lifetime.

At the beginning, they were still afraid of the prestige of Xu Mansion and the reputation of Longhu Mountain.

But as time went by, these people became more and more excessive.

Zhang Yi is well aware of this kind of thing, so he plans to take the responsibility today.

He doesn't care about 1000 taels of silver, but he can't understand the behavior of these people.

"Why does Lao Meng's property belong to you?

Where were you when he lived a hard life?

Now that people are dead, will they only bully orphans and widows?
Pindao wants to see, what can you do?
I might as well tell you that the 1000 taels of silver are in the hands of Pindao. If you want to take it, you can come to Pindao to get it!
But even if you want to make trouble, don't let you women stand out, those men are afraid of trouble and dare not show their faces!

Lao Mo, call me, and report to the official after the call! "

Hearing this, Li Qingmo picked up a stick from the donkey cart and beat these women.

He was merciful, but still beat these shrews screaming again and again.

They dared to call the door in front of Li's mother and daughter, but they dared not be arrogant to the Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain.

A group of people rolled and crawled, and fled to the distance.

Only then did Zhang Yi breathe a sigh of relief.

"Old Mo, please clean the door, I'll go see Meng Yao's sister..."

Zhang Yi went in from the Taoist temple, and then went around to the medicine garden.

Sure enough, when he saw Li's mother and daughter, he hugged his head and wept silently.

"Master Little Landlord!"

Although Zhang Yiran and Li changed her tune, she still called him the landlord.

"These people want money, or..."

"Are you willing?"

"I'm just afraid of hurting you!"

Li Shi became a little uneasy.

"We have agreed, we can't withdraw shares halfway!"

Zhang Yi interrupted Li's words and said:
"It's good for you to feel at ease, everything has a poor way!

1000 taels of silver, the poor don't care!

But what Pindao cares about is justice, if you believe that Pindao can give you and sister Meng Yao justice, then let Pindao handle it! "

"Ok!"

Li Shi silently wiped away tears, Zhang Yi nodded and turned to leave.

……

Outside the city, here in the small village.

The clan members of the Meng family gathered together to discuss.

"Sue the officials and the government won't accept it, go find that bitch, and they will protect her!
Is it true that we can't get our money back? "

"That bitch found a concubine outside and became lawless. Look at the wounds on my body, they were hit by that adulterer..."

"My lord, you have to think about it, it's 1000 taels!"

The oldest man in the room frowned.

"We have already reported to the yamen. That Mr. Zhang has an ambiguous attitude. He is related to the government of Xinguo. No one else is willing to accept this hot potato!"

"Is it okay to let this bitch mother and daughter steal our money?"

For a while, the Meng clan members were all indignant, and some people hugged their heads and cried loudly.

The clan elder was upset when he heard that, and shouted:
"To shut up!"

For a while, everyone was silent.

"This matter must not be settled like this. In fact, Mr. Zhang told me that day that he can't handle this matter here. If we want to seek justice, we have to sue the higher authorities?"

"Above?"

The common people in the room looked at each other, how to sue, who to sue?

Yingtian Mansion is the capital of the country, Mr. Zhang Jiangning County Government, are they going to the Government Government Office to sue?
In their eyes, the magistrate of Yingtian Mansion is a great official,
Thinking of this, their legs and feet felt a little weak.

As if there was an invisible hand,

"Sue, why not?

We are right again, we must sue!

But even if you want to sue, there must be a method!

Who and how should we sue?
Make it clear! "

"How about this, I have a distant relative who is old with Mr. Zhang, let's ask him to make up his mind?"

"Okay, let's collect some money and bring some gifts to Mr. Zhang!"

The patriarch spoke up, and when everyone heard that the money was going to be paid, the other people present looked at each other in blank dismay.

They are all farmers living a miserable life, so how much money do they get?

If it weren't for being poor, who would look at the 1000 taels of silver from the orphan and widow with envy?

The clan elders widened their eyes:
"Why, just thinking about distributing the money, don't you want to spend the money?
How can it be so easy to climb the threshold of the housekeeper, if you don't join together, do you want my old man to find money for you? "

"But old man, how much is enough?"

"No matter what, I have to collect ten taels of silver!"

"Twelve!"

The members of the Meng family's clan turned pale immediately, who can get ten taels of silver?

"I'll leave the words here first, and when we get the money, apart from thanking Mr. Zhang, the rest depends on who pays more today, and he will get more in the future.

Don't go one by one, just count on others. "

"But old man, if we lose..."

As soon as the voice came out, the old man glared angrily.

The whole room fell silent.

"How could we lose, this silver belongs to us..."

After someone cheered them up, these people were angry, and then they started to collect money with one hundred pennies for you and ten pennies for me.

The old man got the shadow that everyone put together, eight taels and seven dollars, although it was not enough, but he could barely take it out.

"The old man is leaving tomorrow!"

Early the next morning, the old man of the Meng family started to go to the city to sue with the hope of the whole family.

They came to the Jiangning county government office, and under the recommendation of an acquaintance, they met Mr. Zhang.

"My lord, why do you want to be the master!"

When the old man of the Meng family saw Mr. Zhang, he burst into tears and said that Mrs. Li was wrong.

That Master Zhang knew all about their affairs and just sneered.

If there were no adults behind this matter, he would not bother to take care of it.

The Taoist priest in Longhu Mountain is evil, and even Yang Xian can't do anything to him. How can he, a little magistrate of Jiangning, deal with him?
Even at this time, he didn't intend to get into this trouble, he just pushed him to the top.

Anyway, if Jiangning County can't manage it, then the Tianfu Yamen should manage it. If it still can't manage it, someone will naturally push it to the Ministry of Punishment...

"My lord, this is our little thought!"

The old man of the Meng family looked around and handed a small bag to Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang weighed it and felt that the weight was not bad.

Seven or eight taels of silver, these mud legs are really willing to give up!

A trace of greed flashed in Mr. Zhang's eyes. To him, this amount of money was quite a lot. However, remembering the command of that lord, he refused sternly:

"Old man, I see that you have been wronged, so I am going to help you, but if you let me break the law, will I kick you out?"

He didn't take money, and the old man of the Meng family was in a mess.

"Get out your pleadings..."

"Pleadings, I don't have..."

Mr. Meng's bewildered expression made Mr. Zhang feel a little resentful.

He silently took out a pen and paper and asked Mr. Meng to dictate the adverbial statement.

"inappropriate……"

There, Mr. Meng scolded Zhang Yi for swallowing their 1000 taels of silver, and scolded Mrs. Li as an adulterer and adulterer.

He saw the old farmer's logic was confused, his speech was slurred, and he interrupted him indifferently.

"If you write a pleading like this, you will definitely not be able to sue him...

Your request is for Mrs. Li to take back the 1000 taels of silver!
That being the case, it should be aimed at Mrs. Li! "

"But my lord, that bitch has already handed over the silver to the stinky Taoist... The old man thinks..."

Before Mr. Meng could finish speaking, he found Mr. Zhang looking at him coldly.

He was so scared that he quickly shut up.

"Zhang Yi is the direct descendant of Longhu Mountain, the son of a real person trusted by His Majesty, how can you sue me with mud legs?
Things have to be done step by step, and meals have to be eaten bite by bite!
Take the woman in first, she is pregnant, and she is a woman, so she will definitely not be able to bear the punishment.

When she recruited her, the little Taoist priest would naturally be involved.

You are a fool, how dare you teach me how to do things? "

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The old man of the Meng family was so frightened that he dared not speak immediately, so Mr. Zhang continued to write.

Not long after, a pleading has been written.

He enjoined:

"Take it out and get someone else to copy it. If you reveal my lord's notes, I'll kill you, a pariah!"

"Adults, villains dare not!"

Mr. Meng is also illiterate, but since Mr. Zhang is willing to help, he is naturally very grateful.

He put away the pleadings and was about to leave, but found Mr. Zhang coughing a few times.

"It's rare, my lord, to write a pleading for someone..."

The master on the side made a point, and Mr. Meng suddenly realized.

He felt a little distressed, it would be fine if this person helped him, but it would cost eight taels of silver to write the certificate?

Old man Meng's heart was bleeding, he laughed, and then put down the money.

With mixed feelings, they left the Jiangning county government office.

"Um……

From now on, it's none of my business! "

Mr. Zhang divided eight taels of silver, and he was very happy. (end of this chapter)
