Chapter 121 Time to work
"We have to find a way!" Li Dongyang said first: "The matter of impeachment must be stopped, and the investigation of other saltworks must be brought up as soon as possible. The Shouninghou party cannot be preempted. The other is about the Yangzhou Saltworks. Case, let people write a letter to support strict investigation and punishment, so that His Majesty will not be disappointed, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

"In this way, I am afraid that many people will be dissatisfied with us, and many people are already forcing us to express our views." Xie Qian said with some resentment.

"Is there anything to express? Don't you know what these people have done? For so many years, the Yandao yamen has been rotten from top to bottom, and the imperial court is not enough for daily use. How long has it been? Five years, less than two terms, and the result? I got 200 million taels, what about other people's?" Xie Qian's temper was a little hot, and he couldn't help but said aside.

"No matter what love is like, they will impeach us if they can!" After saying this, Xie Qian returned to his seat as soon as he cupped his hands.

Seeing Xie Qian leaving, Li Dongnan smiled wryly: "Grand Liu, Mr. Xie's temper is like this, let him calm down!"

Liu Jian nodded, and then said: "I also know what Xie Gong said is reasonable. At this point, we have nothing to do. I hope those people understand! If they don't understand, we have nothing to do. Go to the letter first. Check other salt farms!" Liu Jian shook his head as he spoke, and walked towards his seat helplessly.

It's not easy to be a bachelor in the cabinet!
The situation in the capital changed suddenly, and there were a lot of messy things. Yangzhou seemed calm. Although people were being arrested everywhere these days, they were basically arrested. After being scanned, all the big salt merchants went in. The whole Yangzhou City was depressed, and there was a feeling of jitteriness.

It is impossible for Zhu Houzhao to ignore such a situation. Yangzhou City cannot be chaotic, not only Yangzhou cannot be chaotic, but the salt merchant's business must be taken over by someone.

Putting down the account book in his hand, Zhu Houzhao said slowly: "Go and find Yang Lian for me!"

Zhu Houzhao said this to Liu Jin, of course. As for the account books around Zhu Houzhao, this is not the account book for any corrupt officials to receive gifts, but the account books for confiscating houses in Yangzhou these days. The property situation of each household is recorded on these account books.This time in Yangzhou, more than 400 million taels of silver and more than 300 shops were copied.

The land property is even more, reaching more than 3000 mu. These people are really rich and powerful. It seems that there are a lot of them, but they only copied dozens of them.

"It's really a big deal!" After closing the account book, Zhu Houzhao stood up and shook his head helplessly. This is only a city of Yangzhou. You must know that there are people behind the salt merchants in Yangzhou, but Zhu Houzhao just cleared the payment. They arrested the person in charge of their property in Yangzhou and continued to pursue it later. Zhu Houzhao was not going to do it.

First, it is too difficult. Second, this era is a family-style business. Once the recovery is too involved, you must know that there are Shanxi merchants, Zhejiang merchants, and Huizhou merchants behind these people. Once they are chased, it is easy to cause trouble .

Thirdly, the salt road cannot be chaotic, and order needs to be restored as soon as possible. Once the area is expanded, it will cause a very big panic. Yangzhou City has already begun to slump. If it is not dealt with, it will spread to South Zhili and the entire Jiangnan.The current Jiangnan is the top priority of the imperial court, and there can be no problems, but Zhu Houzhao is still a little unwilling.

"Come again next time!" Zhu Houzhao could only comfort himself: "You can't cut all the leeks at once, can you?"

When Yang Lian walked in from the outside, she saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was looking up at the moon, and she didn't dare to disturb her, so she quickly stood aside and waited.

Glancing at Yang Lian, Zhu Houzhao smiled, and said, "It's been a long time since I came to Yangzhou. This is the first time I've seen the moon in Yangzhou. It's quite beautiful. On a moonlit night at the 24th bridge, I have a chance to go and see it!" "Speaking, Zhu Houzhao turned around and walked inside, and said to Yang Lian: "There is something wrong here in Yangzhou, and I will go to the Lianghuai Salt Field next."

Zhu Houzhao's second focus is naturally to focus on Lianghuai, which needs to be sorted out, and it needs to be sorted out on a large scale.

"Yangzhou will be handed over to you. Now that many big salt merchants have been arrested, you can use the preparations you made before." Zhu Houzhao continued: "Let Shouninghou and their stewards hurry up, they should all find Is it a good man?"

Those nobles and relatives headed by Shou Ninghou only wanted to find medium-sized salt merchants. They encountered a little difficulty before, but now they are very smooth. These salt merchants were scared out of their wits.Although I don't know how the arrested salt merchant will be dealt with in the end, but who can bear the arrest and ransacking of the house, under such circumstances, Xungui's recruiting is naturally much more enjoyable.

"Get rid of the shops, ships and transportation channels of those salt merchants as soon as possible, so that Yangzhou can recover as soon as possible, and the workers on the wharf must not be without food."

"Let those salt merchants buy these with money. Those who have no cash should write IOUs and pay them back when they make money from selling salt." Zhu Houzhao continued to order: "Let the nobles behind the salt merchants guarantee them. We have to do it as soon as possible, understand?"

Yang Lian hurriedly said: "Yes, Your Highness, the slaves understand!"

Nodding his head, Zhu Houzhao continued: "Yangzhou, you are too eye-catching this time, don't go to Dongchang after you go back, otherwise you won't have any good fruit to eat, just like what Ben Gong said, go to the Huanyi Bureau, The eighth bureau is now under the management of the palace, and the clothing bureau will be handed over to you. Don’t worry, the future clothing bureau will be different from the current clothing bureau.”

"Yes, Your Highness!" Yang Lian continued to say calmly, at this time Yang Lian really didn't value this.

Unlike most eunuchs, Yang Lian is very clear about what her foundation is, and that is the prince's favor. No matter what the prince asks her to do or where she will do it, she will be able to get ahead only if she gets things done well. when.Your Majesty is in his prime, the princes in the palace are all good, and it is not their turn, so why fight?
Through this incident, Yang Lian has learned more about His Highness the Crown Prince. Turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands with rain, His Highness’s schemes are so deep that it’s like moistening everything silently. By the time you find out, it’s too late .

Zhu Houzhao is very satisfied with Yang Lian. This is a person who knows how to advance and retreat and handle affairs. These two points are rare!

"Okay, let's do it!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hands, and then said, "Don't disappoint me!"

Back at the Yangzhou garrison eunuch's yamen, Yang Lian directly ordered: "Chen Taitou, find all those in charge. It's been so many days, it's time to work!"

 The recommendation ticket is [-], this week should be [-], let's try [-] next week?Today is a forced push, and next week will be a strong push week. If it is on the shelves, the editor said next Friday, but I pushed it and pushed it to the [-]st. I want everyone to watch it for free for a few more days. Remember to vote for it!
