Chapter 911 The Bottom Line
After Qin Zhongtang entered Ningbo City, he immediately issued two orders.The first way is to invite all the big family gentry who donated money to form the village soldiers to have talks.

The second is to order the Zhang family in Chahu to hand over Zhang Qishu, a felon who set fire to the official ship twice and attempted to kill the shogunate commissioner.

Both decrees were like sinking into the sea, without any feedback.

The attitude of the local rich in Ningbo towards the shogunate and Qin Zhongtang seems to have entered a state of "non-violent non-cooperation".

Ignore, do not contact, and do not confront directly, each doing his own thing.

If the local wealthy family wanted to come, no matter how domineering Qin Zhongtang was, he would still be an official of the imperial court after all, and he had to accept the constraints of the system.

So the bottom line is here, as long as Qin Zhongtang doesn't rebel, he can't burn, kill and loot casually like bandits, right?
Seeing that his two decrees were ignored, Qin Dewei ordered to post a notice outside the government office that tomorrow the shogunate soldiers will practice firearms. Local people are welcome to watch to demonstrate the military might!
After this announcement came out, the locals were very interested.At this time, firearms were more deployed in the northern frontier, and they were still rarely seen among the southern folks.

Among the soldiers Qin Zhongtang brought this time, there was a firearms team of 500 people, all brought from Nanjing City. This firepower equipment is considered very advanced today.

On the next day, Qin Zhongtang, under the protection of five hundred Liaodong elite soldiers, rode out of the government office swaggeringly, and took five hundred firearms teams, and left the city through the south gate.

Then I turned west and walked for a while, and came to the vicinity of Cha Lake in the southwest of the city.

Among the casual people who came to watch, there were those who were more sensible, and when they saw this, they secretly yelled "something is going to happen"!
The Zhang family, one of the four major families in Ningbo City, is known as the "Chahu Zhang family". As the name suggests, you know where the Zhang family's headquarters is.

In addition to the many mountains and little flat land in Ningbo, it is also densely covered with rivers and rivers. It is difficult to find a particularly open place to practice firearms.

Qin Zhongtang led the team to a river, pointed to the opposite side of the river, and said to Chief Zou of the firearms team: "Did you see the gate? The first wave of this firearms drill will target this gate!"

Zou Bazong followed Qin Zhongtang's fingers, looked at the other side, and was speechless for a moment.

He felt that the building opposite was like an ancestral hall. He heard that the name of this place was Zhangjiazhuang, so it was self-evident who owned the ancestral hall.

Based on Zou Bazong's understanding of Qin Zhongtang's character, there is no need to ask "Did you point to the wrong place?", just get ready to do it!

Given today's conditions, it is of course impossible to move the cannons weighing hundreds of catties out for the convenience of movement.Therefore, all the small Fran cannons weighing tens of kilograms were taken out for practice, and ten of them were displayed in one go.

The power is just that, but it is enough to bombard the wooden gate on the other side of the small river, the main problem is whether it can be hit accurately.

The Fran cannon is characterized by its fast loading speed and fast rate of fire, but it still takes a short time from setting up the gun to completing the shooting preparation.

Since Qin Zhongtang came here from the city, he has put up such a big battle, which has already alarmed the members of the Zhang family.

Just as they were preparing, a group of people ran over panting, but they couldn't break through the protective circle of guards and approach Qin Zhongtang, so they had to stand outside and shout something.

Qin Dewei took a look, and only let one person in, that is Zhang Shixing, the current manager of the Zhang family.

Zhang Shixing said angrily to Qin Dewei: "That is the ancestral hall of my Chahu Zhang family!"

There is no need to say much about the significance of the ancestral hall to a clan.For Qin Dewei's behavior, if he doesn't have thousands of elite protection around him, he deserves to be beaten to death!

Qin Dewei laughed at Zhang Shixing: "Why didn't you see a member of the Zhang family standing at the ancestral hall, standing up to block the shelling?

It seems that your Zhang family's feeling for the ancestral hall is just that. There is not even a single person who sacrificed his life. What is the meaning of such a family. "

Zhang Shixing was so angry that he stared at Qin Zhongtang silently, he couldn't believe it, this Qin family dared to bombard the Zhang family's ancestral hall.

Qin Dewei waved his hand casually, and the firearms soldiers immediately lit the fire as if they had received the order.

Zhang Shixing looked at this scene in astonishment, how dare you, Qin Zhongtang?
A series of bombardment sounded, and after the smoke from the gunpowder explosion cleared, Qin Zhongtang observed the opposite side of the lower river.

However, the gate of the Zhang Family Ancestral Hall is still standing upright, and has not collapsed. It is hard to see how many injuries he has suffered.

Qin Zhongtang seemed to lose face, and cursed at the officers and soldiers who were wielding firearms: "Ten cannons fired in one round, and not even a gate was knocked down. What use are you idiots!"

But Zhang Shixing's eyes were red when he came to negotiate. He didn't expect that Qin Dewei would dare to bombard the ancestral hall without any bottom line!This is to forge a blood feud with the Zhang family!
"My Zhang family is at odds with you!" Zhang Shixing shouted unbearably.

After Qin Zhongtang scolded the firearm soldier, he turned around curiously and asked, "Why is there such an inconsistency?

Your Zhang family has more people than my soldiers?Or does your Zhang family have more money than me?Or is your Zhang family more powerful than me?
So what are you holding against me?It's like you, Zhang Shixing, looked at those ordinary people who were bullied by the Zhang family. Do they have the right to be at odds with you? "

Qin Dewei's words were so irritating that Zhang Shixing was almost choked and didn't catch up.

There is no other way, but to move out the Zhang family's last hole card: "That is also the ancestral hall of Zhang Bangqi, the great scholar of the dynasty!"

Qin Dewei asked back: "What do you mean, do you want to file a complaint with the cabinet scholar? In the end, expect the cabinet to issue a post to stop and condemn Ben Zhongtang?"

Zhang Shixing was really thinking about the feasibility of this matter. The Zhang family had a great scholar, so it can't be for nothing, right?
Then he heard again that Qin Zhongtang ordered to the left and right: "Bring a pen and paper, and Ben Zhongtang will write him a cabinet post! In case the Zhang family has to go to the capital to ask the cabinet post!"

Zhang Shixing: "."

I have never seen someone who owed a beating as much as Qin Zhongtang in his life.

Qin Dewei said again: "Don't think that Ben Zhongtang is making trouble out of nothing! Ben Zhongtang suspects that the repeat offender Zhang Qishu is being hidden in your Zhang family's ancestral hall!"

As the person in charge, Zhang Shixing said firmly: "The Zhang family did not harbor Zhang Qishu."

Qin Zhongtang asked without hesitation: "Where is Zhang Qishu's wife and children?"

Zhang Shixing said patiently: "As the saying goes, a wife and children are worse than a disaster!"

Without further ado, Qin Dewei turned around and yelled at the firearms soldier: "Get ready for the second round of shooting! If you can't knock down the gate, all will be dispatched!"

The firearms soldiers set up the gun body and prepared to ignite again.

Zhang Shixing understood now that Qin Zhongtang really dared to bombard the Zhang family's ancestral hall and didn't take the Zhang family seriously at all.

So he hurriedly shouted: "Hand over in three days!"

Qin Dewei sneered and said, "You still want to procrastinate? If you don't see anyone tomorrow, just continue practicing firearms here!"

Then he said to the surrounding people: "This is the end of the firearms drill today, and it will continue tomorrow! In order to save time, I will not leave the city tomorrow, and practice at Moon Lake in the south of the city!"

Those who are knowledgeable will know it when they hear this, and there is another big excitement to watch. The Lu family, one of the four major families, is known as the Moon Lake Lu family!
There are not many ordinary scholars who come to watch today. It's not that they don't like to join in the fun, but that there are more important things that haunt them.

Outside the shogunate office and the gate of the government office, a notice was hung at the same time today, Qin Zhongtang, who replaced the great master to inspect the academic administration of various counties along the coast, will open an examination room in Ningbo City soon!
Qin Zhongtang is going to hold two exams. The first exam is the imperial examination in Xiaosanguan. If you are admitted, you will be a scholar. If you are not admitted, you will be a child student.

The second examination is called the scientific examination, and the assessment objects are the students, also known as scholars, and a grade is set for the students, which can be divided into six grades, first and second grades, third and fourth grades, and last grades. Are not the same.

At this time, the sudden opening of the exam caught the families a little by surprise. Why did they enter the exam season all of a sudden?

Chen Feng, a member of the shogunate, has been in Ningbo City for half a year, and has made several acquaintances, and some acquaintances asked Chen Feng for inside information about the exam.

Chen Feng received the money and replied honestly: "In order to prepare for Japanese anti-piracy and the safety of candidates, this exam will be the last hospital and scientific exam in Ningbo Prefecture before the township exam!

Moreover, Qin Zhongtang also said in private that no one with the surnames Yang, Lu, Zhang, and Tu will be recorded in the college examination!In the scientific examination, all the students with the above four surnames were judged as the last class, and they were deposed as Tsing Yi! "

After the news leaked out, the scholars in Ningbo Prefecture immediately went into an uproar. Unexpectedly, Qin Zhongtang had no bottom line to this point, and even openly used the country to recruit scholars to vent his emotions!

　Cry, I didn't make up enough, try again tomorrow
