However, worry comes with nothing.
Two days later, news came again from the mainland.
"Let me tell you, the situation in Hedong is becoming more and more serious. The Red Lotus Sect has amazing combat power. They have mastered the Zhuge Liannu and defeated many state officials and soldiers."
"Ping'an County is highly valued by the court because it is a new city. It has not been affected by the war yet. However, the influx of victims is increasing day by day, and the Red Lotus Sect has captured many state capitals in Hedong. According to the current momentum, it is estimated that it will soon. It’s Ping An County’s turn…”
Yan Gang went over the latest situation in detail.
Lin Bai couldn't help but frowned.
He was not surprised that the Red Lotus Sect had mastered Zhuge Liannu. After all, Zhu Zhen was once the fourth prince of Li Dynasty.
Excluding this point, the Red Lotus Sect had cooperated with Zhu Kang before. Zhu Kang had already mastered Zhuge Liannu, and it was not surprising that the Red Lotus Sect had mastered it. What's more, when the Queen Mother was still alive, the Red Lotus Sect had launched an assassination, using This is the type of Zhuge Liannu.
In other words, the Red Lotus Sect has long mastered these things.
Not surprising either!
In the early years, the old lady of the family arranged many people to protect the former prince. Later, these people knew his identity and guarded him, such as Lao Mo and others.
These people have always been loyal to the old lady, or some of them have switched to the former prince. This is really not good.
Therefore, it is not surprising to know that Zhuge Liannu.
And with Zhuge Liannu, the strength of the Red Lotus Sect itself, and countless victims, the situation in Hedong is self-evident.
Lin Bai asked again: "Where is Changjin County?"
Yan Gang said: "Back to my uncle, the situation in Changjin County is similar to that of Ping'an County. There are also a lot of flood victims, but it is more valued by the court. With the young master in charge, it should be safe for the time being."
The young master he spoke of was naturally Yan Wenliang.
With Yan Wenliang in charge and the red cannon sent, the talented man would not be worried at all if the Red Lotus Sect attacked.
But the Red Lotus Sect is obviously not that stupid. Even if they attack by force, the first ones will be the victims.
If so, it's a headache.
Lin Bai learned some more about the situation.
But unfortunately, it's all bad news.
As before, the imperial court lacked material resources, and the heavy snow covered transportation problems, so there was no news at all about disaster relief.
There was no voice in suppressing the rebellion, but the Red Lotus Sect won several battles and their morale became even higher.
They attacked government offices, ransacked government offices and large households to provide food for the people. Under such circumstances, they were naturally sought after by countless victims, and their momentum grew.
This has been the case with rebellion since ancient times.
Lin Bai sighed. He was not too worried about the Red Lotus Sect's rebellion.
Although Li Chao has just recovered, there is basically no big threat except from the north. The Xiongnu on the Hexi side have been crippled. Dayue will not rashly attack Li Chao, but in the southwest, the great talents will not even do it, and they will also fight for Li Chao. The interior blocks Dali and Vientiane.
In addition, Xirong will not do the same.
Yes, the only threat to Li North is the north.
As the father-in-law is guarding the north, the problem is not too big. Although the Red Lotus Sect seizes this opportunity, after the snow disaster, with the strength of the Li Dynasty, it will not be a problem to quell the civil strife, but it will be a pity for the people everywhere.
However, there is nothing the great genius can do.
If Lao Zhu does not unblock it, it will be difficult for Southwest to provide support. The ladies are racking their brains.
If it weren't for the ladies being so enthusiastic.
The great genius didn't even bother to pay attention.
He immediately thought about it and asked, "Is there any movement over there in Kyoto?"
Just as he was asking, a soldier came in and said, "Your Majesty, the latest news is coming from Kyoto."
oh?
Lin Bai said oh, and the soldier immediately handed over a secret letter.
It turned out to be a letter written by Qi. Lin Bai's eyes lit up and he read it immediately, and then his face became increasingly ugly.
Study Zheng
Xiao Buyi hurried over, his face full of doubts.
He had been in Southwest China for a while, but he had never summoned the prince before. The sudden summons made him curious, "I have met the prince!"
He bowed quickly.
Lin Bai nodded and got straight to the point, "I came to ask you about your situation in the Ministry of Commerce..."
That's right! The seven letters were about the Ministry of Commerce of the Li Dynasty. In her words, the disasters in northern Shaanxi and Hedong were secondary. Lao Zhu was also preparing for disaster relief at the beginning of this snow disaster. He asked the Ministry of Household Affairs to find a way to raise food, but the Ministry of Household Affairs had no way. The Department of Commerce comes to mind.
In the end, it was a good thing that we didn’t go to the Commerce Department. But when we did, we found that the Commerce Department was already a big hole.
"Back to your lord, that's it. Since the Seventh Princess was seized of power, the Ministry of Commerce has loosened the standards for the listing of companies. Some companies that have not passed strict review are also allowed to go public and issue stocks. The officials knew that the situation was serious at the time, but they did not do it at all. They ignored it and instead removed us from our posts or transferred us from relevant positions.”
"Not only that, they also opened exchanges in places like Jinling, Lanling, and issued new shares on a large scale..."
Following Xiao Buyi's words, the corners of Lin Bai's eyes couldn't help but twitch.
Good guy!
What a great guy!
This is a trick of going crazy for money and issuing junk stocks to cheat money. Unexpectedly, it has become popular in this world.
Emotional bastards are born with bad habits and don't need to be taught at all.
Xiao Buyi obviously noticed something was wrong and asked in his heart: "Your Majesty, is there something wrong?"
Not only are there scammers, but according to the law of seven, many of those so-called firms are empty shell firms with nothing. To put it bluntly, they are just handbag companies. They are simply making money by going public. Those Wang An in the Ministry of Commerce muddle through and are perfunctory about the review. Done.
They don't even bother to deal with it. As long as they give more benefits, they will arrange for whoever gets the leftovers.
Now when Lao Zhu asked for money, he discovered that there was a thunderstorm.
All the stocks in the hands of ordinary people have been turned into waste paper, and many people's hard work for most of their lives has been emptied.
The news has not yet spread, and the people do not know it yet and are still kept in the dark. Once it spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The key is that this time it is not only Kyoto that is affected, but also countless people in Jiangnan, Jiangdong and other places.
To put it bluntly, they are the people in relatively wealthy areas.
If the snow disaster hit northern Shaanxi and Hedong hard, then the Ministry of Commerce's big thunder was aimed at the heavy damage to people in some wealthy areas such as Kyoto and Jiangnan. The key is that we don't know how big this thunder is, because Qi's current identity cannot be Publicly, there are too few things that are accessible.
If this thunder is big enough, then the turmoil caused by the Red Lotus Rebellion will not only affect the two impoverished areas of northern Shaanxi and Hedong, but even the developed Kyoto and Jiangnan will have no money, and they will have to leave the court. And know.
What's more, there is still a war in the north, and there are snow disasters in northern Shaanxi and Hedong.
Plus the Red Lotus Sect is in rebellion.
Regardless of disaster relief or suppression of rebellion, money is needed, but now even the richest places such as Kyoto and Jiangnan have been looted. If the news spreads again, the people in these two places will definitely explode. Once this happens, then what will happen? The situation is bound to be more severe.
At this moment, the talented man also frowned.
