"Everyone, we will still do what His Majesty told us."
"In the next few days, let the squires report the land owned by each family."
"Only when I know what I know can I help you!"
At the chief envoy's residence, Yang Xuan said with a smile to everyone.
"Yes, yes, the lower officials and others will definitely cooperate with the Marquis."
The chief envoy of Zhejiang//Jiangang agreed repeatedly.
Everything that needs to be said has been said.
A consensus was reached, and everyone had smiles on their faces.
"I've been bothering you for a long time, so I'll take my leave first." Yang Xuan stood up and said with a smile.
The Chief Envoy of Zhejiang//Jiang and others also quickly got up to see him off.
Send him out and watch Yang Xuan go away.
The Chief Envoy of Zhejiang//Jiang then slowly spoke:
"After spending time together today, it turns out that Marquis Changping is not as unbearable as the rumors say!"
"Sir, doesn't he care about the banknotes?" said a subordinate.
The good atmosphere was ruined, and the chief envoy of Zhejiang/Jiangang looked ugly.
He glared hard at the subordinate.
"Sir, the price we have to pay this time is not small. If Marquis Changping regrets his words, then we..."
"After all...it's a lesson learned from the past!"
At this time, the prefect of Hangzhou spoke in a low voice.
"Isn't this...impossible?" The Chief Envoy of Zhejiang Province also felt a little uneasy.
Before anything happens, everything is possible.
He was also afraid that Yang Xuan would go back on his word.
"One cannot, at least one should not..."
"His reputation is already like that, and we are still willing to believe him. Shouldn't he take this opportunity to restore his reputation?"
"My lord, it's better to be careful."
"Let's wait for the results of the probing envoy's test against King Han first!"
"If Marquis Changping is unreliable, we still have the King of Han."
"The reputation of the King of Han is not as bad as that of Marquis Changping."
These words seemed to be convincing his subordinates, and also seemed to be comforting himself.
The waiting time didn't take long, and the news from the inspector came.
It was said that the King of Han had accepted the gift and promised to help.
After hearing the news, the Zhejiang Governor and others were relieved.
…
"Damn, these guys are really rich!"
Back at his residence, the little boy showed his "trophies" to Yang Xuan.
The thickness of the banknote was only a lot thicker than Yang Xuan's.
Also, the name of a powerful prince is still very valuable.
"Bring it here!" Looking at the proud expression on the little boy's face, Yang Xuan stretched out his hand towards him.
"What?" The little boy was stunned for a moment and said.
"Bank notes!" Yang Xuan gestured with his eyes and said.
"No, this is all mine." Upon hearing this, the little boy immediately put the banknote into his arms.
"This money is all stolen money and will be handed over later."
"If you spend it, you will be accused of taking bribes."
"Come on, be obedient and give the banknote to your uncle for safekeeping."
"After I return to Beijing, I will talk to your father and ask him to reward you with all the money."
Yang Xuan looked like he was coaxing a child, and asked the little boy for the banknote.
"Uncle Master, aren't you just taking off your pants and farting? It's unnecessary!"
"What's more, with the old man's character, he will burn high incense if he can give me half of it."
The little boy muttered, very reluctantly.
"Gao Xu, there is something wrong with your idea."
"If you don't hand over this money and just use it for yourself, that's a huge amount of property from unknown sources."
"On the contrary, if you turn it in, your father will reward you."
"Then the money is legal and compliant, and you don't have to worry about spending it."
“This process cannot be saved.”
"This is all the experience I have accumulated over the years, Uncle Master."
"You have to study hard."
Yang Xuan patted the younger brother on the shoulder and said sincerely.
The little boy seemed to be persuaded by Yang Xuan. He hesitated for a while and said, "Uncle Master, can you guarantee that the money will definitely be in my hands by then?"
"Are you questioning my ability?"
"Don't dare."
"Don't worry, it's yours, no one can take it away."
After receiving his uncle's assurance, the younger brother no longer hesitated.
He took out the banknote directly and handed it to his uncle.
"Uncle Master, I'll leave it to you!" He finally looked at the stack of banknotes with reluctance.
"Don't worry." Yang Xuan took the banknote and said casually.
Gritting and chirping, just like a girl... Yang Xuan complained in his heart.
After putting away the banknote, Yang Xuan asked the young man about the conditions of the inspector.
It's very different from his side, they all require manipulation of policies.
As for preventing the implementation of the policy, this is impossible.
More than half of the new faces in the imperial court have already explained His Majesty's attitude.
So what they can do is take advantage of policy loopholes to minimize their losses or even make a fortune.
…
In the next few days, everything went on in an orderly manner.
The accompanying Minister of Household Affairs has almost completed the statistics of the measured land.
The land under the name of the landlords and gentry was quickly counted with the help of the Zhejiang/Jiang Governor's envoy and others.
Chief envoy Si Yamen.
Yang Xuan looked at the statistical accounts.
After a while, Yang Xuan closed the account book, looked at the Zhejiang Chief Envoy and said.
"As well as the land in the hands of the people, we should also measure it, including the newly cultivated land in the past few years. Don't leave it behind. Make sure it is true and verifiable."
"Master Hou, why is this?" the latter asked puzzledly.
"The secret must not be leaked. You will know when the time comes." Yang Xuan said with a mysterious smile.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements now."
The Chief Minister of Zhejiang/Jiang automatically imagined that Yang Xuan had a perfect plan.
So I went down to make arrangements.
…
Compared with Yang Xuan's leisure, Tie Xuan, who had been idle for several days, was a little unable to stand.
He couldn't help but go to Yang Xuan and ask: "Master Hou, how can you be so depraved? Have you forgotten what your Majesty told you?"
Yang Xuan's daily life these days is to listen to music, drink wine with local officials, or participate in other activities that are both elegant and popular.
He and Xiao Lao Er participated in these activities, but Tie Hyun was not there.
"Master Tie, where do you start talking about this?"
"Isn't this prince doing the things assigned by your majesty?" Yang Xuan said.
"But, you hang out with them in various brothels all day long. It seems that the things His Majesty told you don't have this content, right?" Tie Xuan asked directly, without giving Yang Xuan any face.
"Master Tie, you don't need to teach me how to do things."
"Don't forget His Majesty's instructions. I have the final say in everything."
"Don't be too troublesome."
Yang Xuan's face darkened.
"Hmph, I thought you were deeply trusted by His Majesty, but I didn't expect you to be complicit in corrupt officials."
"I want to impeach you to His Majesty."
Tie Xuan pointed at Yang Xuan and said angrily.
"Hmph, without my permission, your book cannot be sent to the capital."
Yang Xuan snorted coldly.
Tie Xuan's expression changed.
"Come here, take Master Tie back to his room to rest."
"You are not allowed to go out without my permission."
