As soon as the news came out, the officialdom of the capital fell into silence! No official dares to say that the sentence is too harsh! If you are still in the mood to take a concubine when your father is dead, you are seeking death! This is obviously because you alone are dragging down the other twenty-nine people!
Later, Zhao Minghua was imprisoned, his property was confiscated, and his family was sent to the border! Seeing a rising star in the Ming Dynasty officialdom fall like this, it caused everyone to lament!
In fact, no one in the officialdom is confused. Everyone can see that this is Liu Haojia's revenge against these people for impeaching him! But this crime was so accurate that it was indefensible!
First of all, the Ming Dynasty was based on filial piety. Taking concubines during the national mourning period was a typical example of having no emperor and father. No dynasty would tolerate it! Secondly, no matter what the real situation is, Emperor Wanli must deal with it strictly when encountering such a thing! If he doesn't do this, I'm afraid he will be looked down upon by everyone in the world!
So as soon as the news came out, all the officials who wanted to fight back stopped! This powerless situation made them so uncomfortable that they almost vomited blood. However, they could not open their mouths to speak, so they could only curse Jin Yiwei behind their backs! It was a joke to Xun Gui!
When Zhao Minghua's verdict came down, Liu Haojia let out a long breath after receiving the news. She felt that the pain in her chest was gone, her mind felt much freer, and she finally had something to do!
He immediately issued an order and arranged for everyone to start collecting money from tomorrow. But he also made a request to only accept monthly payments from small traders. Those merchants who do not pay on weekdays will give a final lecture, clearly telling them the time and amount of payment, and not asking about other things for the time being!
The military policemen immediately became excited after receiving the order, gearing up for a big fight! However, they also have doubts in their hearts. If the merchants with backends are unwilling to pay, they may not be able to maintain such a big scene with the money handed over by the small merchants! Now they only receive one month's salary, and they don't want to not receive next month's salary!
After receiving the order, the military police mobilized in large numbers. In the blink of an eye, everyone in the entire small school grounds was gone! Even Liu Haojia changed into casual clothes and prepared to go to the street to see the actual situation.
After leaving the house, Liu Haojia randomly picked a precinct and wandered around the streets confidently. When he arrived at the chosen place, he bought a bag of chestnuts on the roadside, gave a handful to each of the servants behind him, and ate while wandering around.
After walking a few steps, Liu Haojia saw the uniforms of the Jin Yiwei flashing in front of him, and knew that the person collecting money was coming, so he took two quick steps to get closer. The jurisdiction he visited was the jurisdiction of Huang Shuncai and Tan Jianyu. Tan Jianyu rushed to the Hundred Household Office after receiving the notice, and dragged his uncle Huang Shuncai onto the street, where he happened to bump into Liu Haojia.
Liu Haojia frowned when he saw the two of them! Because according to the rules he set, there must be at least three people when collecting money, one person keeps accounts, one person collects money, and the other person is responsible for maintaining order. So seeing only two Jin Yiwei in front of him made him feel a little annoyed, thinking that someone was lazy.
But then he thought about it, and grabbed a purse from the stall next to him, threw a handful of coins into it, and then pretended to be casual and said: "Don't Jin Yiwei always go out in groups? Why? Only two people are so shabby?”
The vendor hurriedly picked up the copper coins and said casually: "What's weird about this! The Baihu official in their Baihu Office is ruthless, and he ate more than half of the empty quota! The people below are naturally more ruthless, and there are only two people left in one small flag. What’s so strange about it?”
Liu Haojia was furious when he heard this! I’ve seen people eat free money, but I’ve never seen people eat so hard! Normally, eating half of the empty salary would be considered crazy, but I didn’t expect that this Baihusuo actually ate the entire Xiaoqi!
But he immediately suppressed his anger. After all, this was something that had been going on for a long time, and it couldn't be reversed at once. And the more important thing now is collecting money, let’s talk about it after this period of time. What's more, he doesn't have enough power and can't control so many things. That's why he settled down and watched what the two people were doing.
I saw Tan Jianyu and two people walking towards the first stall on the street. That stall is a stall that sells braised pork. There is a large pot on the cart to cook the marinade. The aroma is fragrant. It seems that the business must be good!
The stall owner saw two Jin Yiwei approaching, one carrying a ledger in his hand and the other with a mantle draped over his shoulder, and he knew they were here to collect money. He immediately put down the things in his hands and walked out of the stall, holding his hands over his hands and saying with hope: "You two, today is the day to pay? How much do I have to pay for this stall?"
After finishing speaking, the stall owner glanced at the two people with nervous and hopeful eyes, and tried to see the contents of the account book.
Tan Jianyu used to be the Jin Yiwei in this area, so he was familiar with the people here, but he still said businesslikely: "Wang Youshou, I have been calling you by your nickname for several years, but I still don't know your real name. Please tell me your full name." Come and register!"
Wang Youshou hurriedly nodded and bowed and said: "My full name is Wang Quanyou! This Wang Youshou is just nonsense! Selling braised pork only makes a lot of oil, but I can't eat the meat at home!"
Tan Jianyu said with a smile: "Wang Youshou, don't call yourself poor here. Isn't this good thing already coming? According to the rules issued by the above, your stall has high prices and is a first-class stall. You will have to pay 200 yuan this month." Money!”
Wang Youshou opened his eyes wide when he heard this and said, "Two coins of silver? Really two coins of silver?"
Huang Shuncai laughed and cursed and said: "What's the matter, Wang Youshou, do you think the payment is too little? I can charge you a few more coins and help you make up one tael! Hurry up and get the money!"
Wang Youshou's face turned red with joy, and he waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Not much, not much! I'll pay it now, I'll pay it now!"
It’s no wonder Wang Youshou was so excited that he almost went crazy! On weekdays, several waves of people come asking for money, and almost one tael of silver is handed over in a month! Coupled with the flavor of the meat he braises, it is just natural to take a piece of meat while collecting money! Inside and outside, you have to pay a lot more money than others!
Now he only charges two taels of silver a month, which saves him almost more than ten taels of silver in a year. This is also a huge number for a small merchant! With this money, I heard that life will be much easier!
After Wang Youshou finished speaking, he hurriedly took out the money from his bag. There was no money in the bag, but a lot of copper coins were handed over. Huang Shuncai took out the rope from his waist, put the copper coins on and counted the copper plates at the same time. After confirming that they were correct, he said loudly: "I have received Wang Quanyou's monthly report for this month. The copper coins total two coins of silver. I have collected them!"
