"Expensive." Hai Ruiyan said concisely and concisely. He did not discuss that only the common people who could not survive had always rebelled, nor did he discuss the common conflicts among the powerful. Instead, he talked about an issue based on practical experience. Raising infantry Camp is really expensive.
"Expensive?" Ge Shouli understood somewhat and nodded.
Hai Rui continued: "This is expensive in many aspects. People are expensive, training troops is expensive, armaments are expensive, and maintaining an infantry camp is even more expensive. If General Ge Xian paid attention to the six volumes and accounts of the Beijing camp, he would find that raising an infantry camp is expensive. Camp, the money needed is not something that one powerful person can solve by themselves, but ten powerful people’s families can spend their own money.”
Infantry camps are expensive in many ways. In the past three years, there were 3,000 people in an infantry camp. The consumption from military pay, to armaments, to training, to maintaining the Beijing camp was extremely staggering.
Qian'anbo itself is clean enough. Even so, the three step camps of the imperial court's Yangjing camp and the thirty step camps of Yongping Shanhaiguan in Jizhou have tried their best.
Elite is really expensive.
"What is the most expensive thing?" Zhu Yijun looked at Ge Shouli and Hai Rui and said, "The most expensive thing is the court that maintains this army, and the people's hearts."
Everyone is a wise man, and everyone can understand what the little emperor says.
Buying is expensive in a physical sense. If you don’t have real money to spend on it, do you still want to support Buying?
The infantry camp is more expensive in a political sense. To set up the infantry camp requires the selection of soldiers who are not afraid of death. It requires the Ordnance Bureau to build long and short soldiers, crossbows, armor, firearms and other armaments. It requires the Ministry of Household Affairs to find enough resources. Food, grass and military pay require an effective system to complete the construction of the army, the political support of the Ministry of War and Yuan Fu, and the trust of the emperor.
The value of Buying lies in itself, the court, and the support of the people in the world.
Ge Shouli bowed his head and said, "I understand, and I will obey your Majesty's instructions."
Zhang Juzheng said solemnly: "Ge Zongxian asked well. Although they cannot form an infantry camp, according to He Xinyin's explanation, the collusive people want to gain military power and even compete with the imperial court."
"The demon Zeng Guang has no idea where he came from. He can confuse people with his big words and gather disciples to give lectures. Taoist Qu Tianrui, Taihu Zheng Shitao, Jingjiang Lei Deming and Liu Hong, Nanchang Zhang Yide, Gao'an Zhuanyi, Wugang Ouyang Meng, Liu Zongwen of Jingzhou, Luo Xun of Ji'an, etc. used to travel to the chieftains of Huguang, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places. They taught them the art of war and plotted important events. They wrote "Da Qian Qi Yun Lu" and other demonic books. They used the title of "Tai Qian Tai Chi Emperor's Treasure" to persuade Shui Xi, Yongshun, Baojing, Youyang and other chieftains got together and started rebellion."
"And He Xinyin is just one rat in a nest."
"Obviously, it's not that they didn't want to, but that they didn't do it. If they hadn't been caught quickly and dug up early this time, it's hard to say what kind of trouble they could have caused."
The courtiers were talking a lot. This was causing trouble among the chieftains in Guizhou and other places. Ge Shouli's worries were not unreasonable. The powerful people wanted to hold the knife, but it was too expensive to buy and couldn't hold it.
No, the next best thing is to get together with the hereditary chieftain of Xin'an.
"I'm afraid that the ministers will be chattering again, saying that Yuan Fu took the opportunity to suppress dissidents and re-exunite officials to suppress Qingliu Qingyi." Ge Shouli shook his head after reading the memorial and said. He is the General Constitution of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The recent public opinion is so fanatical, It was as if the world was turned upside down, and the waves of disapproval of Zhang Juzheng became louder and louder.
From the 21st year of Jiajing to the beginning of Wanli, some literati enthusiastically criticized the government while writing books and gathering disciples to give lectures, which was called Qingyi.
Qingyi: The impartial discussion of those who supervise customs, clarify right and wrong, and preach.
Hai Rui sneered and said, "Qingyi, are they Qingliu? Do you have the nerve to say that you are Qingliu?"
"Everyone takes the money of the powerful and runs and shouts for the powerful. What does He Xinyin say? Sages are greater than scholars, scholars are greater than merchants, merchants are greater than farmers and workers, but the four pillars of the country are ranked in order by him. Is he for the new order? ? It’s just taking the money of the powerful gentry, wealthy businessmen, and working for them.”
"Qingyi, if you want to think that you are Qingyi, you must be Qingliu. If you are Qingliu, you must be incorruptible. Only when you are incorruptible can you be Qingliu, and his opinions can be Qingyi. Otherwise, they are all dirty opinions."
"How about this? It's not like we won't let them discuss it. If you want to discuss it, you can just use my life in Hainan, Hai Rui, as a reference."
"Integrity means living in earthen houses, going in and out, being alone and not being surrounded by people, not going into brothels, not drinking alcohol, and not entertaining guests. You must be as incorruptible as an ascetic monk. This is the pure flow, the clear flow. Only then can we clear up the discussion, so that’s no problem.”
"Don't the Taizhou schools like He Xinyin boast that they speak for the common people? Their disciples have taught themselves to protect public ministers, and have served as scholars, woodcutter, pottery and peasant officials. They have taught all kinds of things, and taught all kinds of people. They can't wear silk and satin to drive people in and out of sedan chairs. , accompanied by beautiful women in luxury cars, went to a small family of five who only had two pairs of pants, and said: What hardship do you have, I will seek justice for you."
"Let's draw a standard and use it as the standard for my entry and exit in Qiongzhou. If it can be achieved, it will be clear. If you do one thing in front of others and another behind your back, and you are innocent on the surface but debauched behind the scenes, if you are caught, you will be beheaded with the prophecy of the demon book."
"Qingliu's reputation has been completely ruined by them."
Hai Ruihaigangfeng, the mainstay of Qingliu in the court, launched the redefinition of Qingliu. To flaunt himself as Qingliu, and to discuss government affairs cleanly, he must be honest and not extravagant. If he cannot do this, then he should not flaunt himself as Qingliu.
Ge Shouli was silent for a moment and said, "Hai Zongxian's standards are a bit too high."
"A turbid current is a turbid current. If you have to say that you are clean, just follow this standard." Wan Shihe highly agreed with Hai Rui's standards. Wan Shihe never flaunted himself as a clean stream. He was not honest, let alone Although he has noble aspirations, he is a two-faced person who sits on the fence.
Zhang Juzheng, Tan Lun, Wang Guoguang and others all directly defined themselves as Xunli. Xunli mainly focused on doing things. If they succeeded, they would be good ministers. If they failed, they would be mediocre. Go home and sell sweet potatoes.
Wang Chonggu simply thought that he was a turbulent person and he just wanted to make a fortune. As long as he could make a fortune, he could even sell his own nephew at a suitable price.
This is the appearance of all living beings in the court, but they claim to be clean and honest, but they are not honest. Doesn't this mean that they have to erect an archway to show off?
How can we let them take over all the good things in the world? Just because they are eloquent? How could such a beautiful thing exist?
Zhang Juzheng thought for a long time and said: "Then according to Hai Zongxian's words, those who are honest and honest will make clear discussions, and they will be clean. Those who are greedy will make turbulent discussions, and they will be turbid. What do you think?"
Zhang Han thought for a while and said: "What if you are born into a wealthy family? Do you have to be poor when your family is rich? People are inherently luxurious and have noble aspirations. If they are unwilling to join in the evil, then they are not pure?"
"With Hai Zongxian as the reference, are the requirements too high?"
After Zhang Han finished speaking, the courtiers all looked at Zhang Han, but no one paid attention to him or even answered him.
When Zhu Yijun saw this scene, he felt it was particularly interesting. Ge Shouli also said that Hai Rui's standards were too high, but no one thought there was a problem. When Zhang Han opened his mouth, everyone ignored him. In fact, it was very simple. Ge Shouli really felt that Hai Rui's standards were high. Hai Rui's standard is really high, and Ge Shouli is talking about things as they happen.
It is unclear what Zhang Han’s intentions were. Who is Zhang Han serving as an official? Serve as an official for His Majesty? Serve as an official in the imperial court? Be an official for Ming Dynasty? Give him an official position?
I'm afraid he is serving as an official for powerful people.
Zhu Yijun said: "Hai Zongxian's standard is indeed a bit high. How many people in the world can do it? If you want to show your respect for the common people, you must not be able to farm. If you can't even farm, you can't even distinguish between grains." , arresting the common people, woodcutter, pottery and farmers is nothing but a lie, let’s use this as the standard to determine whether they can farm.”
"What do you think, sir?"
"Your Majesty is wise." Zhang Juzheng thought for a while, and it was indeed true. The standard of farming was just right.
Your Majesty knows how to farm, but you say that you don't know how to farm, and you also claim that you are working for the common people, but you don't even understand the stomach problems that the common people are most concerned about. This is a hypocritical person, and you are by no means a pure person.
Turbidity is turbidity, so why pretend?
"The Ministry of Personnel has recommended Guo Chaobin, the left minister of the Ministry of Revenue, as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. What do you think?" Zhang Juzheng pulled out another memorial and talked about the candidate for the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
In the Ministry of Works, at the end of the Sixth Ministry, from Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Household Affairs to Minister of the Ministry of Works, it is difficult to say whether he was promoted or was promoted over and over again, but for a while there was no better manpower, especially for the repair of the imperial mausoleum in the DPRK. Big, now that I am the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, I need to get rid of this big thunder.
No one objected. Guo Chaobin came out to resist the thunder and was not anyone's party member.
Zhang Juzheng continued: "Wu Baipeng, the minister of inspection, inspected and declared the university, and made a speech: The memorial announced the affairs of the Datun farmland. In the early days of the country, the land was given a light tax, and the troops were cultivated. Later, the land was given as a gift, and the army was promoted. The increase in taxes on acres of grass has caused the shortage to spread. Recently, Wang Chonggu, the governor of the Xuan Dynasty, has recruited many applicants from various sources. It is estimated that 47,500 acres of newly cultivated land will be cultivated. This year, a survey has been carried out, and a total of There are 5,103,764 acres, which is more than 380,000 acres more than last year."
"Princes and virtuous men."
Wang Chonggu was stunned. He had returned to Beijing from Xuanda for several months. He was not very clear about what Wu Baipeng was doing in Xuanda. It turned out that he was going to check the number of fields he cultivated. He smiled and said: "It's just so so. Just divide it."
Wang Chonggu cultivated the land to make money. The court said that the army would be paid in kind. Wang Chonggu did it to get money from the court, but this was indeed the credit of the Antu herdsmen.
The 190,000 landless tenants were indeed a great achievement. When Wu Baipeng went to see it, it was also true. Merits are merits, and faults are faults.
Soon Wang Chonggu realized the importance of this memorial. He returned to Beijing to serve as a reward, not as a recommendation of Zhang Han and Zhang Siwei. This was of great significance to Wang Chonggu as an official in the court. In other words, at least in On the matter of entering Beijing as an official, Wang Chonggu could clearly separate politically from Zhang Han and Zhang Siwei.
This great Sikou was earned by Wang Chonggu outright through his merits and not through the appeasement of the clan party.
This is very important to Wang Chonggu.
Zhang Juzheng looked through the memorial. This memorial was very long. It also came with a fish scale booklet, which showed the specific location of the newly cultivated acres and the number of households to be resettled. It was one of six volumes per account. Zhang Juzheng had previously thought that Wang Chonggu It is an exaggeration. The land must have been reclaimed and the barren land must have been restored. However, the figure of 47,000 hectares is somewhat doubtful.
Too much.
However, Wu Baipeng's actual conquest was more than 51,000 acres, and even more than 300,000 acres. This was due to the inertia of Wang Chonggu's decrees in Xuanda.
Zhang Juzheng was very happy to see Wang Chonggu's change.
Wang Chonggu's remaining power in Xuanda could only last two years at most. The governors and governors of Xuanda, Wu Dui and Fang Fengshi, were both ministers who could intimidate the court by lying about military information. Xuanda's slightly encouraging situation would deteriorate again.
Zhang Siwei is really an idiot. Zhang Juzheng looked at the memorial in his hand and could only shake his head.
"Wu Dui, the governor of Xuan Dynasty, sent a memorial to invite the third lady of the northern captives to visit the Xuan Mansion and pay tribute to the Khan on my behalf." Zhang Juzheng talked about the specific arrangements for me to pay tribute, which was related to the war in Liaodong.
This is also normal. The Ming Dynasty sent troops to the Northeast and entertained the Sanniang in the northwest. I'm old. The Sanniang is a talker in the Northern Kingdom of Jin. As long as the Sanniang is in Xuanfu, the Ming Dynasty will be at risk of war in the northwest. If it is lowered, Ming Dynasty can do whatever it wants in the Northeast.
Since the captives and thieves chiefs were sent to the capital in Kegul Village of the Ming Dynasty last year, Gao, the rebel chieftain, and Buhachu, the nephew of Dong Fox, were imprisoned in the sky prison.
In the spring, the Tuman tribes invaded Changyong Fort, and Li Chengliang repulsed them. In April, the Tuman chieftains captured the Tuman tribes, held sacrifices to the flags, gathered troops, and claimed to pay tribute to the imperial court. If they refused, they would seize the Shanhaiguan Pass and soldiers on the peak. Arriving at Kaiyuan, Li Chengliang went to battle, while Chen Dacheng, the commander-in-chief of Jizhou, led his elite troops out of Shanhaiguan to support them and drove back the barbarians again.
In May, when he heard about the situation of the captives again, Zhang Juzheng reported that Zhang Xueyan, the governor of Liaodong, reported that the captives braved the summer heat to support the crowd, which was not the right time. There had been continuous rains in the recent summer, and the bows and horses were tired, so they could not succeed.
You cannot draw your bow on rainy days, because the rain will soak the bow string. Zhu Yijun, who practices martial arts, naturally knows this truth.
At the Wenhua Palace meeting, General Qi Jiguang and Grand Sima Tan Lun also said the same thing. However, Wu Dui made a loud noise and said: I am afraid that the Northern Captives may unite with the Tuman and Jurchens. The meeting of the Ministry of War cannot be trusted. As expected, it is true. In May, Tuman went south because the summer vacation was coming and it rained heavily, so he had to evacuate by himself.
By September, the barbarians were ready to move again, and the war in Liaodong was imminent.
The development of things does not happen overnight, but has very clear context and signs.
After the court meeting, Zhu Yijun did not hold a banquet as usual, but took a carriage and headed towards Beitucheng. This is where the Jingying Camp is stationed. The Ming Dynasty Jingying Camp will attack again to fight in Liaodong.
Zhu Yijun came to Wuying Tower in Beitucheng. Qi Jiguang received the seal of General Zhenglu, Liang Menglong took charge of the military affairs of the governor, and Ma Fang and Li Rusong were the deputy generals on the left and right, preparing to leave.
"Commander Qi has worked hard, and the Ming army has worked hard. I want to go with all the generals, but I am small and weak, so I won't cause trouble to the generals. I will be in the capital, waiting for the army to return in triumph." Zhu Yijun stood in Wuying Tower, this time setting off , he came to see him off in person.
"The Ming army is mighty!"
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
Zhu Yijun came to the gate of the camp, stood in front of a main compartment military vehicle, and gently pushed the mud-covered wheel hub.
In the first year of Wu, after Xu Da led General Yin Shou to conquer the captives, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still the king of Wu, personally pushed Xu Da's wheel and asked him to conquer Hu Yuan. Later, Hu Yuan was defeated, Bei Yuan was defeated, and the Han court in Bei Yuan was defeated again. He was beaten into a Northern prisoner by Zhu Di, the founder of Ming Dynasty.
Now that the Beibei were rampant again, Zhu Yijun, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, stood at the gate of Beitucheng and once again saw off the Ming army.
With the sound of drums and the sound of horns, more than 10,000 elite troops began to march north. Zhu Yijun stood in front of the camp gate, watching the endless convoy of the Ming Army slowly disappearing at the end of the sky, and then said to Zhang Juzheng: "Ambition Gotta spread it.”
From Zhang Siwei's perspective, this might be a good opportunity. The capital of the Ming Dynasty is empty, and the elites are heading north. Isn't this a good time to raise a sword to see His Majesty and have a bitter exchange with His Majesty? All he needs to do is mobilize the Xuan Wei army and go straight to the capital city. Even if he cannot seize the power of life and death, he can still let the court know how powerful he is!
But in Wang Chonggu's view, this is the most dangerous time. At this time, fighting with the court and Zhang Juzheng is asking for death. Once the northwest jumps, the court can immediately release the rebels locked in the sky prison. Buha, the nephew of the chief Gao and Dong Hu, came out and agreed to the tribute and market requests from the Tuman tribes, and then withdrew his troops to quell the rebellion in the northwest.
Just like Wu Dui is currently hosting a banquet for the Third Lady in the Xuan Mansion, Zhang Xueyan can also be hosting a banquet for Chahan Khan in the Northeast to stabilize the Northeast and then the Northwest.
On the way back to the city, Wang Chonggu came close to Zhang Juzheng and whispered: "Yuanfu, my remaining power in the northwest is still there. It's okay this time. Next time, I'm afraid there will be trouble. Next time, I'm afraid..."
Wang Chonggu has not finished his words, but his attitude is very clear. He cannot control it for too long, and his remaining power will only be two years at most. When trouble breaks out in the northwest and the court imposes punishments, he must not hurt a kind person like him. He has no intention of treason. Heart.
Wang Chonggu felt that the northwest would not be able to win, even if it relied on the momentum of the northern barbarians, so he sent them off today. The Ming army was in good order. Can these ten thousand sharp soldiers or one hundred thousand be able to compete? the answer is negative.
The sharp soldiers who have been baptized by the fire of war will only become stronger.
"Wang Sikou is now the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment of the Ming Dynasty. He is responsible for the names of punishments and the affairs of the wool factory. The turmoil in the northwest has nothing to do with the prince." Zhang Juzheng said in a low voice. He gave Wang Chonggu a reassurance.
In the fifth year of Wanli, His Majesty will get married. After the wedding, it will be time for him to take charge of the government. Zhang Juzheng does not intend to be obsessed with power. Your Majesty hopes for the revival of the Ming Dynasty even more than he does. He can also have some leisure time, engage in arithmetic and study optics. , going to the fields occasionally to grind starch, might it be a good thing?
As for the promise, Zhang Juzheng's promise is not His Majesty's promise.
Zhu Yijun returned to the capital and began to continue tinkering with his reflecting telescope. He asked Zhang Juzheng questions, but he actually knew the answer clearly.
The Ming Dynasty began to pursue the case of He Xinyin in Nanya. The Tiqi attacked everywhere. Luo Bingliang, who collected taxes from thousands of households, personally went to Ji'an, Jiangxi and confiscated the Yang family in Luling.
The Yang family in Luling originated from Yang Ren and has continued since then. Luo Bingliang copied this family and was the Yang of Yang Shiqi. Yang Shiqi served in five dynasties and six emperors. He served as an auxiliary minister in the cabinet for more than 40 years and was the first assistant to the second dynasty. eleven years.
The Yang family in Luling of the Ming Dynasty was known as the Four Generations and Three Dukes, and everyone called it a prominent family. Yang Shiqi, Yang Pu, and Yang Tinghe produced three prime ministers in the four generations. Although Yang Shiqi was a descendant of Yang Rui, the eldest son of Yang Ren, and Yang Pu was the second son of Yang Ren. Descendants of Yang Qing, Yang Tinghe is a descendant of Yang Sheng, the fifth son of Yang Ren.
This time Tiqi raided the family, and only raided the eldest son Yang Rui's family, funding He Xinyin, Zeng Guang, Qu Tianrui, Zheng Shitao, Lei Deming, Liu Hong, Zhang Yide, Chuan Zhuyi, Ouyang Meng, Liu Zongwen, Luo Xun and others It is Yang Youren, a descendant of Yang Shiqi.
In order to successfully raid the house this time, Luo Bingliang specially seconded 3,000 Jiangxi soldiers and asked Jiangxi Governor Pan Jixun to come together to prevent changes.
Pan Jixun told Luo Bingliang that no need, just go and search the house. Only when Luo Bingliang arrived did he realize that there were five lines of the Yang family in Luling. These five lines could not be said to be in the same spirit, but could only be said to be enemies of each other.
Luo Bingliang came to ransack the house, and the other four families even lit firecrackers directly, wishing to come up and help ransack the house together. After all, it was all caused by interests. Jiangxi is not rich in the first place, and there are only so many means of production, and Yang Shiqi's big The Fang and Yang Tinghe's five Fangs were fighting to the death. Take the imperial examination as an example. There are only a few places for students and candidates. What do I get if you take it away?
Acres, people, workshops, waterways, etc. are all the same. The fifth house and the other three houses fight back and forth with the big house.
Now that the big house is in trouble, it is really like the wall falling and everyone pushing down, and the tree falling and the hozens scattering.
Just like the feud between the Sun family and the Xu family in Sun Keyi and Sun Kehong, conflicts are always common. How to use the contradictions between powerful right-wingers, powerful gentry, and wealthy businessmen to provoke internal and external conflicts and continue to divide is an interesting question. The tax house, and the key work of the tax bureau in the future.
When it comes to tax collection, it is absolutely impossible to completely collect taxes without insiders.
In September, a reminder note, or a reminder, was issued to Quan Hao.
According to the Qingzhang's fish scale book, the tax collector began to collect arrears. Now there were mourners all over the place. If the reminders were not paid, then don't blame the court for turning against the people.
Turning against the person means that the court does not intend to deal with it internally, but to put this matter on the bright side. When the time comes, the right and wrong will naturally be decided. The tax you owe is more than a farmer can earn in thousands of years. Yinzi, when the time comes, will the common people scold the court for being harsh, or will they scold the rich and powerful for refusing to pay taxes and scolding the common people?
While Tiqi Qianhu was busy and dizzy, Songjiang Prefecture's Huafang had completed its trial operation and received a good response.
Soon the schedule was moved to the following year. Sun Keyi keenly discovered the business opportunity and immediately continued to customize it. Songjiang Shipyard had no production capacity, so he went to Yuegang Shipyard. These were all shipyards of the Ming Dynasty. Wherever they were built, they were not made. ?
A huge industrial chain is forming. Whoever masters the production tools first will gain huge advantages in this industry.
Sun Keyi discovered a huge problem, that is, the price of Yangzhou thin horses is rising rapidly, and the speed is alarming. Not only that, even the prices of prostitutes on the Qinhuai River in Nanya and the Huangpu River in Songjiang Prefecture are also skyrocketing. This is naturally because The large inflow of silver is also due to the reduction in the number of practitioners.
Yes, the number of practitioners in the prostitute industry is decreasing, because the two weaving bureaus of Songjiang Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture, and the Wool Official Factory of Beiya are also recruiting weavers. Weaving does require dexterity.
Prostitutes typically work as young people. This job is unstable and easy to get sick. The turnover is huge. Those who die from illness and those who do good are good. It is a dynamic industry, but now the three official factories have directly absorbed a large number of weavers. For prostitutes, this is a dynamic industry. The industry has also had a certain degree of impact.
Those who wanted to go to the sea saw that they could make a lot of money by weaving there, so they naturally did not want to go to the sea. After all, prostitutes are of low status, and once they enter prostitution, they will be of low status for generations.
According to the past path of dependence, it is necessary to increase investment in Yaxing, that is, to make people Yazi, buy some girls from everywhere, and train them at an early age. However, Sun Keyi's plan is to train them locally. The cost is a bit high. It is better to directly buy them from North Korea. It is more suitable to import from Japan.
Importing can also create an exotic reputation, just like Hu Ji in the Tang Dynasty.
The thin horse in Yangzhou needs to be divided into accounts. Each customer has 500 taels of silver, and the thin horse has to take away 200 taels. In addition to the expenses of maintaining the ship, raising servants, etc., the period of repayment will become longer, but buying an oiran from the Japanese country, North Korea's Goryeo doesn't have this concern. This is all a strong personal dependence relationship, splitting accounts? Not satisfied with delicious food and good drinks and being served by servants? Still want to divide the accounts?
"Brother." Sun Kehong looked at Sun Keyi who was doing the accounting and hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"What's wrong?" Sun Keyi stopped taking stock and looked at Sun Kehong's swivel chair. Sun Kehong could only sit on the swivel chair.
Sun Keyi knew that his brother's leg was caused by Xu Jie!
When Gao Gong suppressed Xu Jie, Xu Jie pushed Sun Kehong out as a scapegoat and had both of his legs disabled. Therefore, Sun Keyi gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Xu Jie because this old fox was too treacherous. He Xinyin's matter was all over the place. He failed to pursue Xu Jie's head.
"This business is unreasonable. Otherwise, we should not do it. We are already very rich." Sun Kehong said with a little worry.
Sun Keyi thought about it and said: "Brother, what do you mean, by working for the imperial court, you are seeking skin from a tiger?"
Sun Kehong nodded and said: "Yes, if the wind in the court changes, the court abandons it, and the powerful Jin gentry regards us as enemies, then I, the Sun family, will be in a dilemma, and the past things are in the past. I'm still alive, not dead, so let's let go of my grudge against the Xu family."
"I'm already a useless person, why bother."
"My brother said to let it go, so I can't let it go anymore. As long as old dog Xu dies, I won't be able to sleep or eat well!" Sun Keyi shook his head and said firmly: "This revenge must be avenged!"
"Zhang Juzheng is fifty this year. He can still rule the country for ten years. In fifteen years, let's just say ten years. The opening of the sea has already been a foregone conclusion. If someone else is in charge of the country, it may be difficult to ban the sea. The court also needs to eat. , you can’t live just drinking from the northwest wind.”
The reason why Sun Keyi decided to serve the imperial court was not simply for revenge. He also had his own considerations. Once something became inertial and formed a huge interest group, it would be difficult for the imperial court to move again. Within thirty to fifty years, it would be very difficult. Harder than easier.
"Master, Luo Qianhu has arrived at Songjiang Mansion and sent an invitation to the master." A concierge took the invitation and Luo Bingliang invited Sun Keyi to the Yamen of Songjiang Mansion.
When Luo Bingliang came to Songjiang Mansion, he naturally came to handle an arrears collection project, but it was not to pursue the tax arrears of the Sun family, but the tax arrears of Xu Jie. He also wanted to do some small things and watch the excitement.
Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! ! !
