Qiming 1158

Chapter 1248 Do you want money or death?
Greed is one of human nature. The goal of Zhao Buyi's wave of leeks is human greed, no matter what class he is. Therefore, it is not only the people who are unlucky after Jiaozi explodes, but also the official.

This time, under the guidance of Zhao Buxi, Jiang Fu's confidentiality work has been done well.

Zhao Bunyi initially planned to fire map cannons on all the officials, but then he thought that the danger of using map cannons was too great, and in case of an incident, no one would speak for him, his status was unstable, and he was likely to die without a place to be buried.

So he decided to divide the officials into two groups.

Foreign faction officials, and Chuanshu local faction officials.

It was the natives of Sichuan and Shu who were not very interested in him as emperor and were not very willing to cooperate with the Chengdu court. They wanted to protect their own interests rather than the interests of the Great Song Dynasty.

Therefore, the basic support for Zhao Bunxi to be the emperor is the officials of foreign factions, and the leaders are Ma Yongkang, who leads the administration, and Wu Lin, who leads the military.

During the entire period of the existence of the Chengdu court, Zhao Bunyi also saw clearly that the most vicious people who harmed the interests of him and the Chengdu court were the officials of the local faction, and the officials of the local faction cared more about their own interests.

In general, the power of foreign factions is not strong enough, and the power of local factions is relatively large, especially in local areas, the situation is even more severe.

This is the main reason for the out-of-control policies introduced by the Chengdu court.

So if you want to control more power and interests, you must make the strength of the foreign factions stronger, and make the basics that support you stronger.

So this wave of Jiaozi fever has also become an action to harvest local faction officials and increase the power of foreign faction officials.

Zhao Buxi personally came forward and used various methods to inform the core officials of some foreign factions of the news, so that they had a bottom line.

Take care of some low-level officials who belong to the same foreign faction, don't make it clear, just let them know not to participate in this strife.

Officials of foreign factions who have Jiaozi in their hands can let go, or it doesn't matter if they don't let go. After the court makes money, they will secretly compensate them with iron money.

All in all, following me, Zhao Buxi, will definitely not make you suffer.

At the same time, keep your mouth shut, once the news is leaked, it will definitely die, and I will never protect them at that time.

As the head of the courtiers, Ma Yongkang was very worried about Zhao Bunyi's operation at that time, worried that there was no airtight wall in the world. Once this matter was exposed, Zhao Bunyi would face a huge backlash.

The local faction officials have a huge influence in the local area. If they are divorced, then...

But Ma Yongkang did not expect that Zhao Bunyi had an idea long ago.

"Then let them abolish me and go to Su Yonglin, let's see if Su Yonglin will accept them, or liquidate them to the end, and smash the graves of their ancestors for the eighth generation! Hmph, if Su Yonglin doesn't write about the Hongwu political theories of the scumbags. , I dare not do it, but now, I dare."

Ma Yongkang was silent.

Also, the liquidation policy of Su Yonglin and the Ming Kingdom is indeed quite scary. Back then, the dignitaries in the Southern Song Dynasty planned to abolish the Zhao Song royal family and sell the Southern Song Dynasty to the Ming Kingdom. As a result, Hong Wu's political theory was born.

After that, the officials of the Southern Song Dynasty united for an unprecedented period of time and resisted the Ming army with all their might... Of course, they were eventually defeated and abolished.

However, the reason why the surrender faction of the Manchu Dynasty has divided into a group of die-hard royalists is because of Su Yonglin's policy of liquidating to the end.

Surrendering has become a high-risk thing from a profitable strategy. No one knows whether it will be liquidated or killed after surrendering, so no one dares to surrender rashly.

So, of course, there are "loyal men" who died in a deadly battle everywhere.

In addition, in order to get a double insurance, Zhao Bousi also discussed with Ma Yongkang that Ma Yongkang and other high-ranking officials would also suffer some losses, take the lead in frying Jiaozi, and make Jiaozi hotter.

In this way, even after the incident, Ma Yongkang, who suffered heavy losses, can speak in front of angry local officials.

Using Ma Yongkang's words, tell the local officials what Zhao Buyi wants to say, and let them weigh their own interests. In this way, not only can they unite officials from other factions, stabilize the basics, but also win a group of broken teeth into their stomachs. The local faction of the pharynx enhances the power of the basic plate.

Zhao Buxi just wanted money, Su Yonglin wanted to die, do you want money or death?
Zhao Bunyi was very proud, and felt that even if the incident happened, his status would not be substantially impacted. Be the king yourself.

So Zhao Bunyi's conspiracy rose from personal behavior to factional behavior. He coerced an entire faction into it, greatly increasing his own security, and the number of local officials who were deceived also greatly increased.

Therefore, when the Jiaozi fever appeared among the people, after a large number of local officials who did not know the inside story, after an initial wait-and-see, seeing those colleagues take money to buy Jiaozi one by one, they finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to spend Money to buy a hand.

As for the real bigwigs who secretly control private financial institutions such as Dajieku and Duiben shops with relatively strong capital, seeing that high-level officials such as Ma Yongkang also went into the sea, they finally made a large number of shots to eat into Jiaozi. , intends to enter this financial turmoil and earn a fortune.

Zhao Buxi was very happy when he heard that local officials spent a lot of money to buy Jiaozi to make money.

In the past, these damn corrupt officials violated his policies in various ways. He was very angry, but he had to compromise. This time, he will use a hot fight to teach these bastards who are corrupt and bend the law and let them know own greatness.

It is also a revenge for being the emperor.

Revenge with power against their greed.

Don't blame me, blame me for being too greedy.

In the end of May and early June in the seventh year of Hongwu, Jiaozi fever ended, and Jiaozi fell into a state of collapse. Jiaozi in the whole Sichuan and Shu was immediately hated by people, and all the surviving merchants only accepted iron coins, copper coins or other precious metal currencies. Paper money is never accepted.

The people who lost their blood because of this hot blood fell into an unprecedented despair.

Common people, middle peasants, rich peasants and landlords, urban industrial and commercial practitioners, financial industrialists, etc., whether or not they were involved in this operation, as long as they held hands instead of coins, they all suffered losses to varying degrees.

Some people lost a small sum of money, and some people lost their money, but in a comprehensive judgment, those who lost a lot of money accounted for the vast majority.

Of course there are winners.

For example, the shopkeepers of Jieku and Duiben shops who closed their hands early, they made a lot of money.

There are also those who have borrowed money by accepting valuables and land as collateral. Although they have no money, they have real objects and land, and they do not lose money.

The Chengdu court was the biggest winner, and Zhao Bunyi was the biggest winner.

After a wave of leeks, Chengdu's treasury is full, and there is money to do things.

Zhao Buyi was deeply proud of his financial skills, and felt that his unexpected actions were as fierce as a tiger, saving the dying Chengdu court and the Song Dynasty, which was a great credit.

But as Ma Yongkang said before, this matter is very risky and is vulnerable to backlash.

He searched for this money mainly for the military, but the military is very expensive, so only the money of the poor is not enough, and the money of the rich is also needed.

But rich people are not willing to be made money, so except for the bankrupt rich people who committed suicide because of their poor psychological endurance under the first wave of shock, the rest of the people reacted quickly.

Immediately afterwards, news of the conspiracy concocted by the Chengdu court spread like wildfire.

Zhao Buxi asked to keep the secret strictly, but after keeping the secret for a few months, it was leaked out, and those who went bankrupt suddenly pointed at Zhao Buxi and the Chengdu court.

They didn't hate their greed, but they hated the despicableness of the Chengdu court and Zhao Buxi very much.

The Tu imperial court established by a Tu emperor should not exist, but now it is still sucking their blood, causing them to lose everything and lose everything.

From the bottom of their hearts, they hate this court, this emperor, and these damn bureaucrats.

So, they decided to resist.

They would never die easily, and they vowed to teach this court, this emperor, a cruel lesson.
