One stone stirs up a thousand waves. Among the big forces in the south, who doesn’t know what pirates are about? The imperial court implemented a maritime ban. The big forces wanted to engage in maritime trade, so they gradually began to collude with pirates. formed the current pirates.
Now as the imperial control of the south weakened. The role of pirates itself has also begun to weaken. However, the pace of pirates' efforts to bring disaster to the entire southern coastal region has not slowed down. It has gradually become a cancer in the southern region.
For the entire southern coastal region, piracy was an incurable disease. No one can completely solve it. Even the imperial court in its prime could not do this.
The purpose of the Southern Bureau's announcement was to establish its authority. It is also known that most pirates are colluding with local forces. Some pirates are even directly controlled by local forces.
It just so happens that the deployment of maritime forces still takes time. In particular, the cooperation between the maritime forces of the Liaodong Bureau and the local maritime forces still requires coordination in many places. It also gave the Southern Bureau time to spread the word.
Senior officials of the Southern Bureau also know that no knowledgeable person will believe the current announcement from the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce. Even ordinary people don't believe it. Even those who believe a little bit do so with good intentions.
Many knowledgeable people began to analyze it. It must have been following the Shunfeng Transportation Escort Agency's intervention in the southern region. The status of the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce has been seriously challenged. Now you need to establish your authority.
But if you want to pull a net to eliminate pirates, everyone will just laugh. I just want to attract attention!
It is estimated that one or two small islands will be wiped out by then. By then, the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce would have established its authority. Let me show you that I am not someone to be trifled with!
It seems that the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce has been having a hard time lately! This is almost a consensus among knowledgeable people. Everyone knows what Shunfeng Transportation Escort is. Escort agency? It's basically pure force.
The Shunfeng Transportation Escort Agency in the southern region is still just a branch. Compared with the strength of Shunfeng Transportation Escort Agency in the northern region, it can only be regarded as drizzle. It has already overwhelmed the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce, the giant in the southern region.
The imperial court received the express report, and the emperor was very happy. The ministers loyal to the court were also happy. I'm afraid that you will unite and become monolithic. The imperial court really had nothing to do with them. Just like them fighting. The more fierce the fight, the more beneficial it is to the court.
When Li Miao first got this plan, he thought about it for a long time. This plan was strongly recommended by Li Shi. From the hands of Li Zuhua's master. Li Shi is now in the south and has completed the audit of Wang Daoqi's departure.
Judging from the audit results, the Southern Bureau is generally doing pretty well. No major problems occurred. As for some minor problems, a lot of them have been exposed. As the head of the Supervision and Law Enforcement Bureau of the General Administration, Li Shi has very strict requirements for the Southern Bureau.
This is the first outgoing audit of the local bureau chief. It was Li Shi who audited it himself. In the future, it will definitely become a model for subsequent auditors to learn from. So Li Shi had to take it seriously. If any problems are discovered, the Southern Bureau will promptly correct them.
After the rectification was completed, Li Shi focused most of his energy on the imperial examination. This year belongs to Enke, and next year will be the real year of competition.
It is definitely a rare opportunity for talents like Li Shi to participate in the provincial examination. The likelihood of success has doubled. Can they not be grateful?
This is also the emperor's first favor with the emperor since he was the emperor's guest. Maybe it’s to celebrate that the mountain on your head has been moved away! But Enke's name is the birthday of the empress dowager. Most people are well aware of this.
With Li Shi's current knowledge, it stands to reason that there would be absolutely no problem in the provincial examination. But he will not take it lightly. He is preparing for the exam in Jinling City, the hospital where Li Miao used to live. However, when the Southern Bureau encounters major matters, it will also come to seek Li Shi's opinion.
Logically speaking, Li Zuhua need not be like this. But Li Shi is now in a high position and is someone Li Miao values. There is nothing wrong with being more respectful now. People do not blame. Of course, this is also the result of Master Li Zuhua’s hard persuasion.
According to Li Zuhua's idea, there is no need to do anything extra. If anything happens, just report it to Li Miao directly. He felt that he was the head of the Southern Bureau and Li Miao's clan brother. It's great to be friends with Li Shi, but I still feel like I can't let go of this old face.
Although Li Zuhua is the same generation as Li Shi, he is two rounds older than Li Shi. Is it appropriate to lick my old face all the time? The key is that there is no such article in the system charter. Finally, after the Master's repeated persuasion, Li Shi strongly recommended the Southern Bureau's plan.
When Li Miao saw this plan for the first time, he felt that it was a bit prestigious and awe-inspiring. It does not mean to punish without teaching, but also to spread the word widely. It is obviously beneficial to the current Southern Bureau.
But when looking at things, you have to look at them from both sides. Sometimes it has to be analyzed from a long-term perspective. After all, it was too trendy and inconsistent with Li Miao's personality.
It is foreseeable that once the Southern Bureau completes its commitment. It is bound to become popular in the southern region. Even in the whole Dazheng Dynasty, it was at its peak. People throughout the southern region will be grateful.
Especially people in coastal areas. What the people want and what they want. The benefits of improving Li Miao's luck are self-evident. This is the benefit of spreading the word!
But the imperial court would be very wary of the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce. How could such a powerful water power not make the imperial court afraid? If the Southern Bureau did not declare war, the court would be suspicious at best. I would never have imagined that the Southern Bureau has such strength.
The water transportation power of the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce is second to none in the entire southern region. Now the strong maritime power is put on the bright side.
The southern region is crisscrossed by water, and water power is the key to resisting the northern forces. This is the foundation of southern power. The great Zheng Dynasty thought of moving the capital to Jinling because of this consideration.
Obviously, passing this matter will put the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce at the forefront of the storm. The Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce originally presented itself to everyone as a business organization with strong water transportation capabilities.
Commercial outlets are located in key cities in the south. Although the protection ability is pretty good. But it is still just a commercial giant.
And now? Even the fierce pirates who had been entrenched for many years were destroyed at once. The deterrent to other forces in the south must have been achieved. But at the same time, it will arouse deep fear in the court.
The Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce is a commercial giant that has emerged in the southern region in recent years. Many forces and the imperial court have also been paying attention. Think of it as a business consortium of many big forces.
The Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce has strict discipline and strong management and supervision. The Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce has grown to its current size in only five or six years. It would definitely be inseparable from the strong support of the big forces behind it.
Li Miao could foresee that the imperial court would try its best to win over the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce after the incident. After all, the southern region was the last retreat for the Zheng Dynasty. The court will never give up.
There will be endless infiltrations by the imperial court into the Southern Bureau Chamber of Commerce. Can the senior officials of the Southern Bureau withstand the severe test?
Li Miao's power system is standardized and supervision is strong. This is also one of the fundamental reasons for its rapid development of power. Although the confidentiality regulations are strict, this is not the real reason why Li Miao has not been exposed so far.
That's because the court didn't pay enough attention to it. Regarding the issue of Shunfeng Transportation Escort, the Northern Bureau stayed behind the scenes in time to avoid Li Miao's exposure. This is also Li Miao's proud work.
As for Li Miao's other forces, in the face of the complicated political situation. The court has not paid enough attention. Coupled with the confidentiality regulations designated by Li Miao, it indeed played an important role.
In addition, only a few senior officials of the local bureau knew about Li Miao's identity. Most of these high-level officials are Li Miao's clan members and domestic slaves. Under normal circumstances, Li Miao is not at risk of exposure.
Don't underestimate the power of the imperial court. The imperial court has great righteousness at its disposal. The importance of Guangzu Yaozu in the eyes of the world is simply unimaginable. How many people can withstand the temptation of becoming a marquis?
There is no eternal loyalty in the world, the key is the price of betrayal. Li Miao never thought that he could win over everyone by relying on grace and benefits.
Although knowledgeable senior officials of various local bureaus can see Li Miao's potential. But potential is just potential after all. There is no such thing as getting it right away, and the benefits of being granted a title of marquis.
The next senior management of the Southern Bureau may face a severe test. But this is not what Li Miao wants to see. It is unwise to put your own safety on the scale of people's hearts.
Rejecting the Southern Bureau's proposal was obviously not in line with Li Miao's original intention. After all, the sublimation of luck is of great significance to Li Miao. It is absolutely impossible to give up eating due to choking. The key is how to solve the problem of exposing your identity.
From a certain perspective, this incident also sounded a wake-up call for Li Miao. It's not too late to make amends.
Once Li Miao's identity is exposed, there will be endless troubles. Because he was within the luck system of the Great Zheng Dynasty, he had no confidence to fight against the Great Zheng Dynasty. No amount of luck can be spent!
Therefore, at the same time that Li Miao issued an agreement to implement the Southern Bureau's plan, a secret Shunfeng family decree was issued at the same time.
This secret Shunfeng family decree was sent to the heads of the top supervisory law enforcement teams of each local bureau at the same time. This Shunfeng family law was praised and criticized by later generations.
In particular, later historians believed that this was the darkest Shunfeng family law in the world. He was almost designated as a permanent example by Li Miao's successor. If it weren't for too much resistance...
