Facing Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Gu Sansi opened his mouth and reported:
"Both the Duan family and the Wang family took fifty thousand taels of silver..."
"The Wang family in Yuchuntang and the Duan family in Yecheng?" Ye Mingsheng seemed to have thought of something and asked:
Gu Sansi nodded and said:
"Yes, the head of the Wang family, Wang Jiang, is very cooperative with our work. However, although the Wang family also has some wealth, it is not a wealthy family. In addition, there is a deposit of 100,000 taels prepared, so we can only come up with Fifty thousand taels of silver to buy Dadongsheng’s bonds!”
"As for the Duan family, the head of the family and I had an agreement some time ago. The Duan family purchased fifteen taels of bonds. However, for some reason during this period, the Duan family began to cry about being poor, saying that their family had been poor recently. I lost a lot of money in my business, so now I can’t come up with 150,000 taels of silver, so I only used 50,000 taels of silver to buy bonds!”
Hearing this, a sneer appeared on Ye Mingsheng's expression. The Duan family was a wealthy man in Hebei Province. Even in the city where the family was located, Duan Bancheng said that his family's wealth could buy half of Ye City. City, after the Fengwu Army captured Yecheng in the Battle of Hebei and Yu, the Duan family cooperated very well with the Fengwu Army. Therefore, in the subsequent series of clearing operations, Ye Mingsheng did not touch the Duan family!
But now it seems that some people are just cheap, and they will be fined if they don’t drink the toast!
The bond issuance only took place within half a month. Did the Duan family's business really undergo such a big change by such a coincidence in such a short period of time?
Ye Mingsheng didn't believe this at all. In his opinion, the Duan family wanted to take advantage of the situation again. Now seeing Xu Zhaojie attacking Jiyu, he felt that the Fengwu Army's rule in Jiyu was not strong, so he was reluctant to give up the money. I'm on my side...
Thinking of this, Ye Mingsheng had an idea in mind, and immediately told Gu Sansi:
"I know this!"
After receiving Ye Mingsheng's statement, Gu Sansi also bowed, thinking about saying goodbye and leaving, going back to continue dealing with his mess of things. However, at this moment, Ye Mingsheng calmly asked:
"Think twice, do you have any suggestions for Ji Yu's position as inspector?"
Hearing the news, Gu Sansi was stunned for a moment. He had also heard that the Jiyu Inspector Chen Huaiyu and the Chen family were arrested by Ye Mingsheng for a rigorous investigation. He also knew that the current Jiyu Deputy Inspector Murong Hui was here. He made great achievements in this matter, and agreed with many people. He also believed that Murong Hui, who was trusted by Ye Mingsheng, would succeed Chen Huaiyu as the new inspector of Hebei Province.
But now looking at what Ye Mingsheng meant, could it be that everyone guessed it wrong?
Because he was busy with the affairs of the Foreign Affairs Department at this stage, Gu Sansi didn't know much about the situation in Hebei and Yu. In addition, this matter involved the Murong family, so Gu Sansi really didn't want to get involved in this matter, so After organizing some words, he bowed to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"My lord, my knowledge of Jiyu's situation is limited, so I dare not speak nonsense!"
Looking at Gu Sansi who looked cautious, Ye Mingsheng smiled and nodded:
"Go back and have a good rest. Don't always work overtime. You have to take care of yourself!"
After listening to Ye Mingsheng's instructions, Gu Sansi was a little moved and said immediately:
"Thank you for your concern, sir. I will definitely remember your teachings in my humble position..."
After letting Ye Cheng send Gu Sansi away, Ye Mingsheng closed his eyes and fell into deep thought. Of course, he knew that many people in the Fengwu Army regarded Murong Hui as the best candidate to be the inspector of Jiyu after Chen Huaiyu. To tell the truth, at the beginning Ye Mingsheng thought so too, but after receiving the latest memorial sent back by Murong Hui, Ye Mingsheng changed his mind.
This is not to say how Murong Hui is. This young man has performed very well, is very capable, and has good moral character. Apart from doing little things behind his back, Ye Mingsheng still admires him, otherwise Ye Mingsheng wouldn't He was entrusted with important tasks and made him serve as the deputy inspector of Hebei and Yu to handle matters in Hebei and Yu.
However, this time Murong Hui sent back a report on the investigation of Chen Huaiyu and his family, but it involved one person, and this person was the current Chief Minister of Hebei and Henan - Wang Ke!
Wang Ke is fifty-five years old and is an evergreen figure in the civil service system of Hebei and Henan. He has served as the deputy chief envoy of Hebei and Henan for more than ten years and has very close relations with various forces in Hebei and Henan. After taking over Jiyu, Ye Mingsheng helped him to the position of deputy chief envoy of Jiyu, thinking of using this to reduce the resistance to Hebei's reform.
Because Wang Ke has always behaved very low-key, Ye Mingsheng has not paid much attention to him. However, according to Chen Huaiyu's confession after being interrogated, he learned that Wang Ke was the source of a series of turmoil in Hebei. It was when he acted as Under the protection and connivance of the protective umbrella, some illegal and criminal activities by Chen Huaiyu and others were able to proceed smoothly...
After knowing this, Ye Mingsheng was determined to capture Wang Ke!
However, capturing Wang Ke is very simple, just a matter of Ye Mingsheng's next arrest warrant, but who will take over Wang Ke's position?
The main reason why Ye Mingsheng was willing to make certain compromises and hand over the two key positions of Hebei and Henan's chief envoy and chief inspector to local factions in Hebei and Henan was that he wanted to reduce the number of reformers in Hebei and Henan. resistance, appease the local faction in Hebei, accelerate the reform process in Hebei, gain better and faster control of Hebei, the most populous province in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and use this to make full use of Hebei's population and land, and increase the strength of the Fengwu Army. Soldiers and financial resources.
But now, taking down the Inspector Chen Huaiyu first, and then the Chief Envoy Wang Ke will undoubtedly make everyone in the local faction feel in danger and feel that they do not trust them. You must know that Jiyu is still a war zone, but it is just a war zone. Xu Zhaojie's offensive was limited by Yuan Song to several states and counties in the south of Hebei and Henan, and did not affect other areas of Hebei and Henan.
However, the stability maintenance work in Hebei and Henan is still very important. Otherwise, some unrest in Hebei and Henan will have a great impact on the battle situation on the front line.
Therefore, in order to avoid such a thing from happening, Ye Mingsheng’s newly appointed chief envoy to Hebei and Yu must be very particular. This person must not only be trusted by Ye Mingsheng, but also recognized by the local faction in Hebei and Henan. Only in this way can he Work better!
To be honest, it is very difficult to meet this requirement, but it happens that there is one person in the Fengwu Army who meets this requirement!
This person is Ye Mingsheng's cheap father-in-law, the second master of the Murong family, Murong Qingwu's biological father, and the current Chief Minister of Liaoyang - Murong Yuliang... ········
Although Murong Yuliang never served in Jiyu during his official career, his father Murong Chunsheng served as the envoy to Jiyu during the late emperor's reign and served in Jiyu for seven years. His grandfather Murong Kui even served in the cabinet before joining the cabinet. Murong Yuliang has served as the chief envoy of Hebei and Henan for more than ten years. When Murong Yuliang was young, he lived with his father in Hebei and Henan for a period of time!
Although it has been decades and the relationship has become somewhat distant, some of Murong Chunsheng's old subordinates still hold important positions in Hebei and Yu. I believe that there is still a good relationship between the two parties. With this kind of relationship, Ye Mingsheng believes that Murong Yuliang can still be recognized by the people of Jiyu.
Transferring Murong Yuliang to Hebei Province not only meets the requirements, but also means that Ye Mingsheng recognizes his ability as a cheap father-in-law. Although Liaoyang is the place where Ye Mingsheng and dragons flourished, the population is still too small after all. , coupled with the fact that there is still half a year of cold winter, the current development potential is still a bit low, and a long-term and stable plan is needed to rejuvenate the economy.
As for the current situation, Ye Mingsheng urgently hopes that Jiyu, a populous province, can play a role in the Fengwu Army system. In Ye Mingsheng's opinion, there are only three people in the Fengwu Army who can complete this task. Task!
The first one is Cui Shao, but he needs this old fox to help him sit in the center. The second one is Gu Sansi. However, Gu Sansi has to deal with the affairs of the Foreign Affairs Department on the one hand and lead the reform process on the other. The burden on him is already very heavy. He often works overtime until late at night, so it is obvious that he is not suitable for this job..."
"The last one is Murong Yuliang. During his tenure as Chief Envoy of Liaoyang, on the one hand, he actively promoted reforms and strengthened infrastructure construction so that the people could have enough food and clothing. On the other hand, he also cracked down on the tyrants and gentry who were unkind and protected society. Fair and just, the official reputation in Liaoyang is very good!'
Therefore, it can be said that it is a matter of course to transfer Murong Yuliang to come to govern Jiyu!
It was precisely because he wanted Murong Yuliang to serve as the chief envoy to Hebei and Henan that Ye Mingsheng changed his mind and could not let Murong Hui serve as the chief inspector of Hebei and Henan. Otherwise, the uncle and nephew would have one in charge of administration and the other in charge of administrative supervision. Although they are very strict people, Ye Mingsheng feels that this situation should be prevented from happening!
After thinking about it, Ye Mingsheng finally came up with a good solution, which is to let the current Youyan Inspector Ji Heng go to Jiyu to serve as the Inspector's partner Murong Yuliang, and then let Murong Hui come back to fill Ji Heng's vacancy. As for Murong Yu Ye Mingsheng decided to let Gu Zhongshi fill the vacancy for Liaoyang Chief Envoy after Liang Liang.
Although Gu Zhongshi is very selfish, he is still capable of being in the officialdom for decades. He does not expect him to do well in Liaoyang. He just needs to follow the policy and line left by Murong Yuliang and continue to promote the work process. That’s it!
After thinking about these things, Ye Mingsheng also relaxed. He planned to lead the Ninth Division to the battlefield in Hebei and Yu to meet Xu Zhaojie in seven days. Now that he had finally sorted out these relationships, shouldn't he relax?

"Madam, these are the new pastries made by Cuixiang Pavilion today. Which one is your favorite?"
The maid Ziyun held a plate of exquisite pastries in front of Bai Yuanyuan and said very respectfully:
Looking at the delicious and delicious cakes in front of her, Bai Yuanyuan was also a little moved, and she subconsciously prepared to reach out to take it. However, she seemed to have thought of something in the next second. She looked a little frustrated, but she still took back her hand and said angrily:
"Take the things away and give them to you to eat!"
Zi Yun, who has been serving Bai Yuanyuan for many years, looked a little surprised when she said this. The pastry from Cuixiang Pavilion can be said to be a specialty of Yi Jing, and it is also Bai Yuanyuan's favorite food. She used to eat it every three to five days. Jie Jie Yan, why did you refuse today?
Just when Ziyun was hesitating, Bai Yuanyuan ordered even more impatiently:
"Why are you still waiting? If I ask you to take it down, take it down as soon as possible!"
Hearing what Bai Yuanyuan said, Ziyun didn't dare to hesitate and took the pastry down. Seeing her favorite pastry leaving her like this, Bai Yuanyuan also felt a little aggrieved in her eyebrows. Of course she wanted to eat it. , but now I dare not eat it!
As for the reason, it is very simple. Since she gave birth to her child and was in confinement, although Ye Mingsheng has come to her place, he has only visited her child to tease Xiao Xingtong, and has never touched her once. This is also what Bai Yuanyuan sees. In my eyes, anxious in my heart!
When she was pregnant, in order to ensure that the child would be born smoothly and healthily, she really took a lot of supplements throughout the pregnancy. Not to mention chicken soup and the like, she ate more than a dozen sticks of ginseng alone, which also caused her to gain weight. Quite a bit, the whole person's condition is not better than before. The small waist that was once full now also has some fat... ·
Bai Yuanyuan also feels a sense of crisis about the current situation. She has been working hard to lose excess fat during this period, so she dare not eat her favorite pastries now!
Thinking of this, Bai Yuanyuan couldn't help but sigh, with some tears appearing in her beautiful eyes. Although Ye Mingsheng hid it from her before, there is no airtight wall in the world. She also already knew that her eldest brother Bai Changrong would only be able to use crutches in the future. Working on a wheelchair, Bai Yuanyuan's heart aches when she thinks that her eldest brother, who has been strong all his life, will have to live like that for the rest of his life!
The only thing that can make Bai Yuanyuan feel some comfort is that Ye Mingsheng is still very interested in his eldest brother. Not only did he reward good land and a beautiful house, but also gave Bai Changrong a job as a reserve soldier, so that Bai Changrong would not succeed. A useless person.
Although Bai Yuanyuan wanted to have a son before, after learning what happened to her eldest brother Bai Changrong, Bai Yuanyuan's obsession with having a son became even more intense!
Regarding the birth of a daughter this time, Bai Yuanyuan was secretly sad that her stomach was not up to expectations, and on the other hand she was secretly complaining about God's injustice. Why could An Miaoyi, Shen Yutong, and Pei Zhixiu give birth to a son for her husband, but she could only give birth to a child? Girl, this is so unfair····························
