Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 122 Recovery
After a short time, those stewards came in from the outside, and when everyone came in, Yang Lian said with a blank face: "Everyone, the days you have come to Yangzhou are not too short, and you have not forgotten what you are here for." Bar?"

"Elder-in-law, we are waiting very anxiously, this body is rusty!" The steward of Shouning Hou's Mansion said, which immediately caused a lot of laughter.

Yang Lian also laughed, and then said loudly: "This is your chance to do something big!"

Everyone looked at Yang Lian, with excited expressions on their faces, eager to try. These people came to Yangzhou to wait for this opportunity. They didn't care about the corruption case of private salt in Yangzhou. What they cared about was how to make a fortune. .

"Arrange your people to immediately take over the business of the seized salt merchant." Yang Lian glanced at the crowd, and then said.

"All the shops and salt ships seized by the Yamen are sold to you. If you have no cash, you can write an IOU, but you must guarantee it in the government behind you. The money is internal money, so you'd better not make any crooked ideas." Yang Lian's tone was very serious, even very severe. This was not because he was scaring everyone, but a real thing.

Zhu Houzhao didn't even think about making up his mind about this money. Most of the money seized from corrupt officials will go into the national treasury. This is a rule. The emperor can get [-]% of it.

These shops and merchant ships will also be sold, but in the past they were sold by the local yamen, and many of them were pocketed. However, what Yang Lian sold this time is not just shops and ships, but represents the entry of salt merchants. coupon.If you want to buy it, it is naturally very expensive. The money must go directly to the internal treasury. The emperor Zhu Youtang's internal funds are not rich!
When everyone heard this, their expressions suddenly became solemn. This means that everyone is shopping with His Majesty. His Majesty is magnanimous and can allow you to pay the debt first, but if you don't pay the debt, hehe, His Majesty's debt is not so good.

"Don't worry, Eunuch, we know what to do!" The steward of the Shouning Hou Mansion said first, "I won't make it difficult for Eunuch."

Everyone knows that this is an admission ticket for the salt farm. Needless to say, it is too clear. This money cannot be saved. Besides, the salt merchants make a lot of money. Business property, how much is that?No one present is a fool. Once they enter the market, it is a guaranteed business. Who would be short of this little shop money.

"It's good that you know!" Yang Lian nodded, and didn't continue to say anything, as long as this kind of thing is done.

"This is the list you handed in. Most of the people here can be saved, but some of them can't, and I'll circle them all. There are too many criminal records these days, not only about selling private salt and bribery, but also about If you have someone's life in your hands, you can't keep it, otherwise His Royal Highness won't be able to explain it to you, and you can keep the money you collected, but you can't keep it."

Everyone's faces were solemn, no one spoke, and as for intercession, of course, there was no such thing. These people all took refuge in the various mansions behind them, and the greeting ceremony must be indispensable, but collecting money does not necessarily mean doing things.Some things can't be done, such as keeping things like they are now, not to mention them, and the people behind them can't do it either.

"Okay, that's basically it!" Yang Lian put down the list, and then said: "Go back to the row right away, it's time to start moving."

"Let the salt boat start immediately, and the coolies at the pier will make money as soon as possible. Remember, no price reduction is allowed, and the price of employment will increase by [-]%." Yang Lian finally ordered: "If the coolies get into trouble because of the price reduction, None of us have any good fruit to eat, how many people are waiting for us to make mistakes, and you know it even if we don’t tell you, so don’t mess around.”

Everyone nodded with serious faces: "Yes, father-in-law, we understand!"

"I'm telling you one thing. In addition to salt shops and salt boats, there are also many businesses, such as casinos, brothels, etc. There are also inns and restaurants. If you are interested, you can buy them with money. This requires cash , Ask about your respective mansions." Yang Lian thought for a while and added: "At least half of the cash for the salt shop and salt boat."

When everyone dispersed, Yang Lian also breathed a sigh of relief. Now that things have come to an end, her affairs can finally be wrapped up.

The stewards of each family started to make arrangements after they went back. They were prepared very quickly. In just two days, the salt shop reopened, all the salt boats parked on the pier restarted, and the yamen seized them. All the private salts in the country were also sold, and it was even [-]% cheaper than before. The practice of restoring the market at a low price was very obvious.

In addition, on the Yangzhou wharf, the wages of the coolies increased by [-]%, and the tense atmosphere in Yangzhou was relieved for a while, and many people felt that this seemed to be quite good.

In fact, the arrest of those big salt merchants and corrupt officials has little to do with ordinary people, and they can't feel the impact on them in a short time. Zhu Houzhao's approach is to let them feel it in a short time, and it is a personal experience. I feel that there are people in the province who are secretly making troubles. After Yangzhou is stabilized, the Lianghuai Salt Field will be stabilized.

"Liu Jin, it's almost done here in Yangzhou, tidy up and get ready to go to the saltworks!" Zhu Hou looked at the documents sent by Yang Lian and said.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Liu Jin quickly agreed.

Everything in Yangzhou is going smoothly, but things in Beijing seem to be turbulent. Since the last incident in which nobles and relatives sold out together, the confrontation between the two sides seems to have become more intense.Although the number of memorials to impeach Shou Ninghou was much smaller, the rhetoric was more intense. Obviously some people were pushed into a hurry, but what people did not expect was that someone began to intercede for Shou Ninghou.

The content of the letter is very simple. Although Shou Ninghou made a mistake, he has a good attitude of admitting his mistakes and correcting his mistakes. He can be a good example. Although rewards are not allowed, some punishments can be mitigated. Against the sky.

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youtang put down the memorial in his hand, with a smile on his face: "After all, the elders did not disappoint me!"

He reached out and picked up another memorial, and after a glance, Zhu Youtang's face became serious. The content of the memorial is very simple, that is to severely punish the officials and salt merchants involved in the case in Yangzhou. At the same time, it also said another thing, That is the case in the Lianghuai Saltworks, what about other saltworks?Please ask Zhu Youtang to issue a decree to strictly investigate other salt fields except Lianghuai Salt Field.

This memorial has passed the cabinet, and the cabinet has given a draft. The cabinet's meaning is very simple, that is, it approves this memorial.

At the same time, the cabinet's proposal also stated that an inspection team headed by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Dali Temple can be formed to inspect various salt farms and punish corrupt officials and salt merchants who sell private salt.

　It's Monday, please recommend a ticket, I'm rolling around asking for a recommendation ticket!
