At this time, Ningrong Backstreet had become much more desolate than before. Jia She and Jia Zhen also sent people to gather the confiscated property together.

When Jia Hui came here, Jia Lian and Jia Rong were greeting the accountants to count their belongings one by one.

When he saw the two walking and chatting over, he knew that he had taken care of the old lady.

Then Jia Hui ordered people to separate 150,000 taels from the cash, load it into a car and take it to Shuntian Mansion for diplomacy to Wang Min.

Let Shuntian Prefecture help distribute it to the victims who have been bullied by the Jia family.

Seeing the white cash appear, the people waiting here suddenly cheered.

They came here just to gamble, and they couldn't bear to leave even if it was night.

Now that they see Yinzi actually appearing, they are all happy.

"Jia Zhenwu not only avenged us, but also compensated us for our losses. He is truly benevolent and righteous!"

All the people cheered and began to praise Jia Huilai.

At Wang Min's order, people began to line up to receive money.

In order to facilitate the distribution, most of the money Jia Hui transferred were copper coins, so they were distributed quickly.

The common people couldn't help but shed tears as they took the money they received, and kept saluting in the direction of Jia's house to thank him.

In the city of Shenjing, the people who were watching the excitement saw that these victims had really received the money, and they all began to sing about Jia Hui's benevolence.

If Jia Hui hadn't asked Wang Min to turn the conversation to the emperor, I'm afraid it would have been time to go to the palace to explain to Emperor Taichang.

Although Jia Hui sent someone to explain that it was under the inspiration of Emperor Taichang that he placed the suffering master.

But the people's favor for Jia Hui still only increased.

It was like this for two days before the heat dropped.

The new stewards of Rongguo Mansion have also been selected, and most of them are still Jia Mu's people.

However, Jia She, Mrs. Wang, and Wang Xifeng also took the opportunity to arrange a few people, and Jia Mu didn't say much about this.

Jia Hui also returned to the military camp and began to inspect the training of the generals in the camp every day.

Just when everyone thought that the matter had passed quietly, Jia Hui quietly handed over the evidence of the crimes of the people who had dealt with him to the Third Division.

Looking at the evidence handed over, the three judicial officials suddenly looked embarrassed.

But the Jia family members had dealt with it at the beginning. If they were indifferent in the face of this, I am afraid that the memorial to impeach them would be filled with His Majesty's imperial papers in the next second.

With Jia Hui Zhuyu in front of them, how could these people be as impartial as Jia Hui.

It is impossible to spend so much silver to compensate the suffering owner like Jia Hui did.

Therefore, for a long time, there were voices scolding these people in Shenjing City.

These people knew they were wrong and did not dare to refute, so they could only endure it silently.

It is worth mentioning that the Yongan Marquis Mansion did not participate in the siege of the Jia family.

Therefore, Jia Hui’s evidence does not include members of the Yongan Marquis Mansion.

But Jia Hui knew that the feud between the two families was dead, and the Yong'an Marquis Mansion did not use the former people. If they took action, it would threaten Jia Hui.

Therefore, Jia Hui did not take it lightly and specially trained some people to keep an eye on the movements of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

In the blink of an eye, more than January has passed.

As the weather gets warmer, it’s also the season when flowers bloom in Shenjing City.

The training in the Xianwu Camp is also on the right track, and Jia Hui no longer needs to keep an eye on it!

Just when Jia Hui was slowly relaxing, an oral order summoned Jia Hui to the Yangxin Hall.

At this time, the officials of the Six Departments and the cabinet elders had gathered in the Yangxin Hall.

As for the generals, Jia Hui was the only one sitting there alone, looking a little out of place.

After listening to everyone's discussion, Jia Hui also understood the problem.

This is another problem with Jiangnan's salt tax.

Since Li Dan ascended the throne, the salt tax in Jiangnan has gradually decreased.

It wasn't until Lin Ruhai was appointed as the Salt Inspector that things gradually improved.

But the good times did not last long. Starting from the year before last, the salt tax began to slowly decrease again until this year.

Yesterday, the imperial court received a secret report from Lin Ruhai that salt merchants from the south of the Yangtze River gathered in Yangzhou again to reduce the share of salt tax on the grounds that there was too much salt in stock.

An Chengren, the salt envoy from Jiangnan Province, also agreed to the salt merchant's request.

However, after Lin Ruhai's secret investigation, he discovered that most of the salt kept by salt merchants was private salt and was not official salt of the imperial court.

After informing An Chengren of the matter, he was rejected by An Chengren.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai suspected that a large amount of private salt in Jiangnan was attacking official salt.

And since Lin Ruhai told An Chengren the found information, An Chengren seemed to be replacing private salt with official salt to prevent the court from sending people to investigate.

"Your Majesty, there are constant natural disasters in the north. If there is any failure in the salt tax in the south of the Yangtze River, I am afraid it will affect this year's disaster relief!"

Thinking of Da Chu's current situation, everyone looked helpless.

Throughout the dynasties, until the end of the dynasty, there were no such frequent natural disasters. Last year, people rebelled in Shandong due to poor disaster relief efforts. .

If Chu had not been established for more than a hundred years and the soldiers in various places still had good fighting capacity, I am afraid that the rebellion would not have been put down so quickly.

Now there is another problem with the salt tax in Jiangnan, and everyone has to start to worry.

"Tao Aiqing, how long can the Ministry of Household's money last?"

Tao Chongli heard Li Dan's question and quickly replied:

"Your Majesty, if you don't count the spring grain, you can wait until the autumn grain arrives in Beijing! But now there are signs of drought in Shaanxi and Henan. I am afraid that there is no hope for the spring grain in these two places! In case of drought, I am afraid that there will be another Disaster relief is coming!”

At this time, Chief Assistant Huang Jie said:

"Your Majesty, let's not think about the food tax for now. The Jiangnan salt tax is the top priority!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, if what Lin Yushi said is true, I'm afraid An Chengren has colluded with salt merchants and sold illegal salt!"

"Furthermore, Jiangnan salt merchants are the best at hugging each other to keep warm. It's unknown how many people are protecting them!"

Everyone has just discussed how to solve the problem of Jiangnan salt tax.

An Chengren's problem is easy to talk about, but the private salt and salt tax behind it are what everyone is worried about.

"Jia Aiqing has been listening to it for a long time, but did she pay any attention to it?"

Seeing Jia Hui looking bored, Li Dan suddenly asked.

Jia Hui was a little surprised when he heard the inquiry, but he still handed over his hand and said:

"Your Majesty, I feel that something is wrong with the suggestions made by the ministries just now. The Jiangnan salt tax has always been the majority of the court's salt tax, and the salt merchants are also famous for their wealth. There is no one in the country or abroad who has not been respected by the salt merchants, let alone Needless to say, Jiangnan is far away from the court. Even if an imperial envoy is sent there, if the officials in Jiangnan shirk the obstruction, they will have little effect!"

"What about Uncle Yi Zhenwu's opinion?"

Jia Hui thought about it again and said:

"In my opinion, find a reason to arrest them all. If they are dishonest, just destroy them! They are all sitting on millions of dollars. I don't believe that they are all as pure as lotus flowers. As long as I arrest them Get up and search the house, if you don’t believe we can’t find any evidence of their crimes!”

After listening to what Jia Hui said, everyone couldn't help but shake their heads. They felt that Jia Hui's method was too rough and too easy to follow the truth.

However, Emperor Taichang really listened to his heart and couldn't help asking:

"But what reason can be used to catch them all?"

"This minister doesn't know!"

Li Dan looked at the people with sad faces, glanced at Jia Hui again, and then asked Jia Hui:

"Jia Aiqing is a military general. If we mobilize troops from the Jiangnan camp, do we have the confidence to control them?"

"this......"

Jia Hui glanced at Emperor Taichang and seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. It seemed that he was preparing to go to Yangzhou!
