Chapter 888
In the early morning of the next day, the commanders of Dinghaiwei, Guanhaiwei, and Changguowei, who had rushed to Ningbo City from the surrounding coast, all came to the gate of Qin Zhongtang's mansion to ask for an audience.

One is because of official etiquette, Qin Zhongtang is the supervisor, they are commanders, the relationship between superiors and subordinates is very clear, it is etiquette to take the initiative to meet.

The second reason is because I heard Hu Yushi's release yesterday, saying that Qin Zhongtang intends to adjust the coastal guards.

The third is that there were rumors before that the imperial court wanted to mobilize the Beijing army to deploy defenses along the southeast coast.If true, this is bound to directly affect them again.

The three Haiwei Commanders were only led into the gate, and then stopped outside the Yimen Gate. Qin Zhongtang sent a message that there were other guests and asked them to wait first.

The three of them looked at each other, somewhat incomprehensible.

The three Triton commanders add up to a huge amount on the ground of Ningbo Prefecture. Besides the magistrate himself, who else can have priority over them in Ningbo City?
Not long after, I heard some movement outside the gate, and then I saw people walking in surrounded by a strange monk.

Even if they had never seen the three commanding envoys waiting outside the gate of the instrument, they could guess that this person was probably Ce Yan Zhou Liang, an envoy sent by the Wa Kingdom.

I don't know what's wrong with the Japanese country over the sea, but I always like to use monks as envoys.

Then I saw that Ce Yan and Zhou Liang didn't stop, and continued to walk into the Yimen, which made the three commanders feel unbalanced.

Could it be that in Qin Zhongtang's mind, a Japanese envoy is more important than their three commanders?

While he was muttering, he suddenly saw several servants carrying a heavy box behind Ce Yan and Zhou Liang, and they followed Monk Ce Yan in.

Ma Kui, commander of Dinghaiwei, stared at the box, inspected it with his eyes, and said to the other two in a low voice: "This box is not light, and it probably contains gold and silver."

Commander Cai of Guanhaiwei also said: "There are no long-term special products in the country of Wa, but I heard that the country of Wa has dug up mountains of silver in recent years, so the box must be silver."

After the discussion was over, the three of them understood, no wonder Qin Zhongtang received the envoy of the monk from the Wa country first, it was to save face for Yinzi.

Qin Zhongtang, you should have said it earlier!If I knew you had such a hobby, wouldn't everyone have a common language!

Ma Kui immediately said to Ma Er, the head of Qin Zhongtang who was guarding the gate of the instrument, "please transfer to the middle hall, sir. I know the etiquette, and I will see you later!"

The other two commanders followed suit and left together.

Here, Ce Yan and Zhou Liang brought Tong Shi into the Ming Hall, and after meeting Qin Zhongtang, they sat down and chatted.

Not long after, a servant approached and whispered something to Qin Zhongtang.

Afterwards, Qin Zhongtang smiled, "Ben Zhongtang naturally knows the purpose of Monk Ce Yan's visit, and I have been thinking about the next tribute period for several days."

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang quickly said a few words, and the translator said: "There are many people in our country who have a heart for China. I hope to take the wind as my faith and visit again in the next year."

But Qin Dewei said: "This year in Erguo, a tribute ship turned into a bandit. The circumstances are very bad. Even Ben Zhongtang was implicated, so we must be punished!"

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang said anxiously: "Those are all troublesome people from Satsuma and other places. They pretended to be tribute boats and acted mischievously after they snatched the survey and cooperation. They have nothing to do with us good people!"

Qin Dewei scolded: "Originally, the ancestor's law was a tribute every three years, but I thought about the heart of Erguo Xianghua, so I asked the emperor to change it to a one-year period, but there was another accident!

I am so disappointed!Therefore, the tribute will be cut off next year as a sign of punishment, and the tribute group should wait until the next year to come again!

The investigations held by those perpetrators must have masters, and Erguo can bring me the heads of these masters! "

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang wanted to say something, but Qin Zhongtang saw them off.

Mr. Feng, who was accompanying the meeting, said worriedly: "Many people in this generation have enjoyed the sweetness this year. If the tribute is cut off next year, I am afraid that they will all become Japanese pirates."

Qin Dewei sighed: "So let's take a big gamble and see if we can catch all these malicious Japanese people in one go, so as to avoid future troubles for the time being."

Judging from the experience of another historical time and space, the so-called Japanese pirates are getting bigger and bigger like a snowball.

Perhaps the first batch of people who ate crabs tasted the benefits, and then followed suit in a swarm.

Now when the signs are just emerging, if we can cut them off severely and then cooperate with the policy of opening the sea, the situation will be much better than the original history, right?
Feng En said again: "I know your thinking, by continuing to ban the sea and sever tribute, to lure the most restless Japanese or maritime merchants into bandits.

If there are thousands of pirates attacking after the trade wind next year, can you really eat it?Personally, I feel that those guard officers and soldiers are not as capable as me. "

Qin Dewei only said: "It should be possible."

Yu Dayou went to Guangdong to receive Guangxi wolf soldiers, and searched and supervised the construction of warships. This is a top secret matter, and no one in Zhejiang knows about it. Qin Zhongtang does not intend to let people know about secret weapons and trump cards.

In addition, the recruitment of Yiwu soldiers will start soon, and the training will be available for half a year to eight months.

Then recruit Lu Tong, the commander of the Fujian capital who has been proved to be quite capable of fighting by history, and he can also recruit some soldiers from Fujian.

A three-pronged approach to copy homework should not be a problem to deal with Japanese pirates who have not yet fully become a big climate.

The rest is nothing more than tactical details and strategies, so we have to wait until next year to see the specific situation.

Master Feng couldn't help complaining: "Everything is waiting for next year, so what are you going to do this year?"

Qin Dewei said impatiently: "I've said it several times, the main thing this year is nothing but making money!"

Master Feng looked outside the door, and said sarcastically, "Those commanders are really sensible, and they all took the initiative to go back and get the money."

Qin Dewei said proudly: "If you think that I can only embezzle and accept bribes, then you underestimate me!
Just look, one year later, from the mouth of the Yangtze River to the mouth of the Pearl River, I will be the leader behind the biggest maritime smuggling in Ming Dynasty! "

Feng En: "."

What the hell is your Qin Banqiao's proud tone?Do you think this is something to be proud of?
As a class with vested interests, Master Feng felt for the first time that Daming treated scholars too favorably!
Qin Banqiao has acted so recklessly, embezzled, accepted bribes, and covered up smuggling. As long as he doesn't rebel, he probably won't lose his head!
Your Majesty, open your eyes and have a look!No one can control the depraved Qin Dewei anymore!

After meeting the guests in the morning, Qin Dewei went to the banquet at noon, which was a formal reception banquet.

The group of people who attended the welcome ceremony yesterday will also appear at the banquet today. Anyway, these are the representatives of officials, gentlemen and civilians in Ningbo City.

Although there was an unpleasant disturbance at the welcome ceremony yesterday, the hypocrisy and politeness at the banquet today is still the same.Everyone is a scene person, and there is still some kung fu for nourishing one's energy.

When the wine was hot, Qin Zhongtang put down the wine in his glass, and said to Shen Zhifu: "Everyone thinks that Ben Zhongtang came to Ningbo this time because of a major accident at Sanjiangkou."

Shen Zhifu really wanted to say "no one thinks so", but he dared not say that he was not sitting on the ground and didn't have the guts to contradict Qin Zhongtang.

Then Qin Dewei said loudly: "Actually, Ben Zhongtang has the heart of investigation, and wants to move the shogunate to Ningbo Mansion and be a neighbor with Shen Huangtang!"

Everyone in the lobby was paying attention to Qin Zhongtang's words, so most of them were stunned immediately.

Qin Zhongtang looked around again and said: "Ningbo Mansion is a good place, are you willing to welcome it?"

The lobby, which was originally a bit noisy, became quiet in an instant, and there was no more whispering.Everyone was afraid of being misunderstood by Qin Zhongtang as a joyful welcome, so they completely quieted down.

It can be said that no one in the Ningbo mansion, from officials to country gentry, wanted people like Qin Zhongtang to stay in Ningbo.

If a boss of Qin Zhongtang's level came, wouldn't all the officials become errands?

At the same time, it added a lot of variables to the smuggling business of local wealthy families. Who would welcome Qin Zhongtang to stay in Ningbo?
Qin Dewei looked at Mr. Feng of Shibosi again, but Feng En lowered his head to avoid Qin Dewei's eyes.

please forgive!If Qin Banqiao can be prevented from corrupting you, as a critical friend, I don’t want you to come to Ningbo to make money!

Qin Zhongtang must have drunk too much, he stretched out his finger and shook, "Your place is xenophobic!"

The fellow eunuch Yang Meihuang was a little dissatisfied and said: "My hometown has always been hospitable, people from all over the world gather here, and there are thousands of people living in Ningbo.

Even the various envoys felt at home after landing in Ningbo, so how can we talk about xenophobia? "

Qin Dewei sneered a few times, pointing to Liu Jie, the very low-key commander of Ningbo Guards today, "Take this Commander Liu as an example, Commander Liu was very xenophobic about the Sanjiangkou accident!
Fighting was always a matter for both sides. Since Commander Liu knew how to act impartially, so he detained Xu Weixue, did he ever detain leaders such as Zhang Shixing and Zhang Qishu on the other side?

Only detain foreigners, but leave locals alone. If this is not xenophobia, what is it? "

Commander Liu was stunned, why hasn't this matter been settled yet?He replied: "The Zhang family is all victims, and they are seriously injured and need to recuperate."

Qin Zhongtang snorted and said: "Sure enough, it is fair! When encountering gang fights, you only need to detain one side! And you can know that the Zhang family is the victim before you find out the inside story!"

Commander Liu still wanted to make some excuses, but Qin Zhongtang suddenly asked: "Two shogunate ships were burned, did you go to investigate?"

Commander Liu replied in a naive way: "It's not too late yet."

Qin Zhongtang scolded: "There is no time to investigate such a big matter, what are you doing all day? And the most suspected suspect is Zhang Qishu, why is he not detained?
Ships from other places, even official ships, will be burned if they burn, so don't worry about it?Is Commander Liu the commander of Ningbo City or Daming? "

Commander Liu was speechless. The locals were actually prepared for Qin Zhongtang to talk about things with thousands of bolts of silk.

The big deal is just to overturn the table together. I don't believe you, Qin Zhongtang, dared to make a big deal out of trying to smuggle.

Unexpectedly, Qin Zhongtang basically didn't mention the thousands of bolts of silk, but repeatedly talked about the matter with two burned official ships.

Qin Dewei took the case and said: "It's really deceiving people too much, the official ship of the shogunate was burned, people were detained, and they didn't go to track down the criminals!

Even with my identity, you, Commander Liu, dare to bully me like this!Even if Tu Qiao and Zhang Bangqi are here, they dare not treat me like this!

I'm so angry, I never thought that I, Qin Dewei, would be treated so contemptuously in Ningbo Mansion! "

Liu Jie just felt aggrieved, who bullied you, Qin Zhongtang?Who dares to bully you, Qin Zhongtang?

It's you, Qin Zhongtang, who has something wrong with you. From the moment you got off the boat, you put on an angry face!It's just delusional persecution!
Qin Dewei waved his hand: "That's all, I have already mentioned the matter of being treated poorly, let the court judge!"

People who have been in the officialdom, such as the old man Yang Meihuang, suddenly understood what it meant that Qin Dewei had been acting as a victim!
The reason why the local forces in Ningbo have been tough with the outside world in the past two years is all because of the emergence of two big bosses, Tu Qiao and Zhang Bangqi.

Whenever there is any trouble in Ningbo Mansion, these two big bosses can help to say a few words in the court, or attack those who disrupt the stability of Ningbo Mansion.

But if Qin Zhongtang put on an angry face, it would be hard for Tu Qiao and Zhang Bangqi to talk in court!
What kind of distinctive character Qin Zhongtang is, everyone in the court knows.

If people like Qin Zhongtang would be angry when they came to Ningbo, how would the people in the court think of Ningbo?

Not to mention that if there is a conflict between the imperial court and the local government, the people in the imperial court naturally tend to represent the imperial court's imperial envoys.

Under such circumstances, if Tu Qiao and Zhang Bangqi still spoke for the local people in Ningbo, they would probably be sprayed to death in the court.

Without the protection of the two big bosses, the energy of the locals in Ningbo Prefecture would be reduced by half!
Liu Jie stood up abruptly, walked around the table, and shouted unbearably: "Qin Zhongtang! You're so deceitful, there's no reason for that!"

Qin Zhongtang deliberately dodged for a while, and then shouted: "You want to do something even worse? It's lawless! Who gave you the courage?"

Commander Liu: "."

Is this what is said in the legend?

Qin Zhongtang's personal soldiers rushed out and shouted, "Kneel down!"

Commander Liu was about to explode with anger, restrained himself, turned around and walked out.But there were Qin Zhongtang's personal soldiers at the door, and they swarmed up and held down Commander Liu.

Prefect Shen hurriedly persuaded Qin Dewei: "Commander Liu is very prestigious among military households, if he handles it carelessly, the morale of the army may be unstable."

Qin Dewei asked curiously, "Why is it unstable?"

Shen Zhifu was speechless, you, Qin Zhongtang, also served as the governor of a border town, don't you know there is something called a mutiny?

You performed it yourself from beginning to end, and arrested people without any solid reason. Are you really not afraid of the morale of the army?

Liu Jie looked at the banquet, and shouted to the other commanders: "We are both in the robes, so we should advance together and retreat together, why are you turning a blind eye?"

There are a total of four guards in Ningbo Mansion, except for the Ningbo Guard in Ningbo City, there are three sea guards on the coastline, and they are generally headed by Ningbo Guard.

Ma Kui, the commander of Dinghaiwei sitting next door, sighed, and said to Liu Jie: "Brother Liu, you'd better be soft and admit your mistake. Why do you deliberately contradict Qin Zhongtang?"

Liu Jie was stunned, what kind of ecstasy soup did Qin Zhongtang pour into you?

What he originally meant was that after he was caught, he would cause a "mutiny" among officers and soldiers in the city.

In a place where the system of guards is similar to that of border towns, it is quite normal to have a military mutiny, and this is also Commander Liu's confidence.

In recent years, there have been mutinies in Datong, Liaodong, and Ningxia, and Ningbo is not far behind!
I hoped that the other commanders would also cooperate, but I didn't expect them to abandon me directly!
If the other commanders all help Qin Dewei, then the mutiny will definitely be useless!
"Take Liu Jie down! Lock him up and wait for exile!" Qin Zhongtang waved his hands to the soldiers, and then said in a low voice to the crowd: "Now let's talk about the collection of Japanese wages, I will talk about it first, you all listen carefully! "

All the officials and gentry in Ningbo finally felt the legendary aura of power and treachery.

Commander Liu is a high-ranking third-rank official at any rate, and he didn't make a big mistake. Even if the court convicts him, he hasn't come down yet, so you just say you're going to be exiled!
　I'm a little too lazy to write too many details, I want to skip the time to next year
