Chapter 368

Standing on the fourth floor of Yanyun Building, Xu Chengzong shivered. He held assets worth nearly 500 million taels, all of which were mortgaged by speculators.

This money is really too much.

He didn't dare to hold these things at all. Every night, he only felt the creaking sound of his neck and neck, like the sound of bone prying knives prying cervical vertebrae under the altar of heaven and earth.

Early in the morning, he waited in the snow, and as soon as the palace gate opened, he immediately asked for an audience.

In the end, he saw His Majesty's car coming out of Xi'an Gate.

"Let's go, let's go to Sanchuan Gate." Zhu Qiyu opened the car window and said to Xu Chengzong who was waiting with a smile.

The Qinhuai River flows from Tongji Gate to Sanchuan Gate.

The Nanhu Lake is just outside the Sanchuan Gate, and the Nanhu Coal Yard is on the bank of the Nanhu Lake. There is a garden over there, and Zhu Qiyu saw it when he entered the city.

Nanhu Bieyuan is long from north to south and narrow from east to west. The layout of the garden is centered on the mountain pool.

The rockery is also composed of Qujian, Yupan Pavilion, Xianyukan, Sanxing Bridge, Hanyu Pavilion and Qingling Corridor, etc., which are built around the water and form an interesting contrast with the rockery.

When he came, it was just autumn in Nanjing. The Nanhu Bieyuan was full of towering trees, whirling bamboo shadows, desolate and desolate, simple and quiet, very unique.

It's much better than the ghost town where Zhu Qiyu lived.

After Zhu Qiyu's car drove out of Xi'an Gate, thousands of commanding officers and soldiers began to push the platoon of cars out of the city. When the snow stopped, when the snow began to melt, people might freeze to death.

His Majesty has been preparing for two days, and asked the commanding officer to bring many soldiers to sell coal in various workshops in Nanjing.

At the coal market entrances of Luzhou, Anqing, Taiping, Chizhou, Ningguo, Huizhou, Hangzhou, and Ningbo, there were commanders pushing carts to transport coal.

Shi Biao was in Ningbo Shipping Department, leading a large army to cooperate with His Majesty's coal discharge operation.

Cars lined up from Xi'an Gate and Bei'an Gate, and headed towards the corners of Nanjing City. It was as if the flood gates had been released. Countless catties of coal, like the flood peak, traveled from the imperial city to the inner city, outer city, The city wall rushed away.

It's endless and endless.

Zhu Qiyu said that he has [-] million catties of coal, that is, he has [-] million catties, but some people just don't believe it.

Zhu Qiyu came to the Sanchuan Gate, looked at the hills in the Nanhudui coal yard, and said with emotion: "This is their confidence, [-] million catties of coal."

"This time, I'm sure they won't freeze to death. This last time, they paid a price of four cents a catty. They have already used up all their energy at a high price. Now they can only follow my four pennies a catty to put coal."

Xu Xianzong said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid they will have no tomorrow."

"Your Majesty is a benevolent monarch, and you get a share of the profits, but not everyone gets a share of the profits. Your Majesty wants mortgages, but some places don't want mortgages."

"They mortgaged all their property with the minister the day before yesterday, and went to the bank to borrow money yesterday, alas."

"If they can't pay back the money, those who put the money will force them to pay back the money."

The debt collection of the Ming Dynasty can also be called rent recovery.

When this group of people has money, they are naturally the masters of Qian Zhuangzi, and when they have no money to pay back the money, they are the grandsons, who must be chased after.

"You deserve it." Xu Xianzong sighed.

The rebels were put down by His Majesty, and they wanted the Haoyou family to fight against His Majesty, and they were killed by His Majesty. The wealthy businessman insisted on touching His Majesty, and that's all.

Xu Xianzong rejoiced again that his original choice was not wrong.

Zhu Qiyu looked at the countless commanders in the city pushing carts, buying and selling coal with the common people, and looking outside the city, there were more than 20 coal mountains, and the surrounding merchants were mourning.

Isn't taking money from people the same as killing their parents?These merchants are indeed in mourning.

Yu Qian bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, do you want to fill the captive camp with some clothes, hats, trousers and shoes during the Chinese New Year? Seeing that the cold winter is coming, and the Chinese New Year is coming, can you be kind?"

Yu Qian was persuading Renshu that the coal was dug out by the rebel prisoner camp day and night and sent to Nan Ya. Today, His Majesty was able to release the coal, and these prisoners deserve credit.

His Majesty pardoned them for three months of hard labor, but Yu Qian felt that it was the Chinese New Year, and it was inevitable for the prisoners to be homesick. This time, for their crimes and meritorious service, can they be given some preferential treatment.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "I bought them clothes, hats, pants, shoes, and New Year's goods at the standard of one silver per person. This time for the New Year, each person has about three catties of meat."

"Chinese New Year is a good opportunity. It is the best time to disintegrate their refusal to reform. I have already asked Marquis Wu Qing to prepare. When the Chinese New Year comes, it will be lively and lively, with different customs in different places. Let them all show the elegance of their hometown."

"Totally destroy their will to resist! If one day, someone pulls them into rebels again, will they still do it? Absolutely not."

"They are traitors, how to deal with them? Have they all been chopped off?"

"Not to mention me, the soldiers in the Beijing camp are my sergeants. They are real people. They fight on the battlefield, regardless of life and death. That is the battlefield!"

"But it's not what I want, and it's not what the sergeants want, to let the soldiers lay hands on the unarmed."

Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu's descendants are in the era of information explosion, and he has seen a lot, otherwise, it would be too troublesome to deal with the 24 army captives.

Only then did Yu Qian know that His Majesty had already prepared it, and the standard of one silver coin per person in the rebel camp was indeed completely enough.

At the end of the 14th year of Zhengtong, Yu Qian wanted His Majesty to take back the rewards of four grades and above, and gave each person in the Beijing camp a tael of silver for the New Year.

The civil officials disagreed, but Hu Wei said that the military officials cost money, but the civil officials did not cost money, and the civil officials were fined, but the military officials were not fined.

Zhu Qiyu directly asked the courtiers to stop arguing, and gave the 20 taels of silver out of his inner pocket.

One silver coin per person can indeed lead a good year.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "The rebels each have one silver coin, and the army is in a different place to celebrate the New Year. I gave each of them five silver coins for the New Year."

"The unorganized rebels are nothing more than mobs. Who organized them? It's the Fourth Armed Forces Battalion, they are the first to make contributions, and it's a new year in a different place. I can't chill the hearts of the soldiers."

"It's been half a year since we set out to conquer Nanya, but Huguang and Guangzhou haven't been decided yet, and I haven't given any rewards or honors. They may already have some emotions."

Yu Qian's complexion changed and he bowed his head and said, "Did your Majesty hear anything?"

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "That's not true, the sergeants of the [-]th Regiment Battalion all know that I keep my word."

Yu Qian breathed a sigh of relief. He thought His Majesty had heard something, but it turned out to be a precautionary measure.

He was also surprised that the [-]th Regiment Battalion almost had the word loyalty engraved on their faces, so what else could go wrong?
It turned out that His Majesty was concerned about the sergeants, and he was afraid that they would not be able to wait for the reward when they celebrated the New Year in a different place, so he had an idea.

There is an old saying that people's hearts are made of meat. His Majesty is very good to the soldiers. He has arrangements for the affairs before, after, and after.

What good will it do them if another traitor and traitor come to power?

Zhao Kuangyin wore a yellow robe, and the entire Song Dynasty emphasized civility over martial arts.

The lessons of history are enough.

"It's starting to quarrel." Zhu Qiyu happily looked at Sanchuan's door, those merchants surrounded their boss, hoarse.

Yue Qian and Ji Duo walked into the paddock with the flow of people.

The salt merchants in Lianghuai, the maritime merchants in Zhejiang and Zhejiang, and the landlords in Huguang finally surrounded their merchants under Meishan.

"Everyone listen to me!" Hu Weiming shouted hysterically: "Be quiet!"

Hu Weiming roared angrily: "Your Majesty puts coal at the mouth of the coal market for four coins a piece, but at this price, he loses money! How long can he put it? This cold wave still has some days to go, but it will snow again. The coal Wouldn't the price go up?!"

Yue Qian exploded, threw the lump of coal in his hand at Hu Weiming, and roared angrily, "Fuck you shit!"

"Everyone, don't listen to his nonsense!"

"Your Majesty has already set up a list. Today it is four renminbi, and tomorrow it will be five renminbi! In the future, the price of coal in Jiangnan will not exceed ten renminbi a catty! Your Majesty has two coal yards, the Saddle Factory and the Jianghuai Factory!"

"Our coal bombs are all in our hands!"

After Yue Qian shouted, he withdrew from the crowd, hiding his achievements and fame.

Hu Weiming was so angry that he shouted angrily: "At the beginning, it was said that you should be responsible for your own profits and losses. I asked you to participate together? When you see the money, go to Yanyun Building to borrow it, and Qianzhuangzi to borrow it. I asked you to borrow it." ?"

"Now it's my fault. You guys shouted a few days ago, Hu Shang always said it well!"

Chen Guangqi took two steps back, he was the most timid among the three business owners.

He retreated to Meishan in a panic, and the crowd was so excited that anything could happen!
Wu Bingjian's face was pale, but if he couldn't appease these merchants, they would definitely not be able to survive today.

He said tremblingly: "Even so, we can still transport the coal... to Guangdong and Guangxi. The coal has not been settled there yet, and we want coal! Yes, that's right!"

A businessman was already outraged. At this point, the three businessmen still want to lie to them!
"Are you saying that Guangdong and Guangxi need coal to be fried? We are small coals, which are used to light fires for the people, but not for furnaces. You are lying!"

"Don't listen to their nonsense! Smash them to death!"

"Smash them to death!"

Chen Guangqi finally couldn't bear it any longer and ran towards Meishan.

As for Hu Weiming and Wu Bingjian, they still planned to hold on, but when they saw the rushing crowd, they were finally frightened and ran towards Meishan with a howl.

Naturally, the merchants would not let them go, and immediately chased after them.

The sun was high, it was already noon, the geothermal heat had already risen, the snow on Meishan Mountain had actually loosened a bit, and there were so many people chasing and beating the three bosses.

Meishan actually seemed to be loosening, and hundreds of merchants chased and beat this merchant with their hands and feet.

Only the sound of clattering could be heard, but the merchants didn't care about the sound at all, they just wanted to kill the three bosses.

After the sound of clattering, Meishan finally slumped.

The coal block has not been completely thawed, the inside is still frozen, as if falling off, the coal and supports crashed away, overwhelmingly buried all the merchants in it.

"Oops! It's broken, something happened!" Yue Qian clapped his hands and shouted loudly: "Yam servant! Tiqi!"

This kind of piled up accumulation is known to everyone. It has just snowed and cannot be approached.

Expansion with heat and contraction with cold is a natural way. When Dujiangyan was built, we all knew that it would be easy to open mountains by pouring water on it.

Zhu Qiyu stood on the Wufeng Building of the Sanchuan Gate, watched the mountain of coal piled down, and said calmly: "Well, they will never pay back my money."

Xing'an looked at this scene with a lot of emotion, with light in his eyes, he patted the railing and said: "So this is a landslide!"

Yu Qian shivered, this Xing'an, at this time, is actually observing the landslide, is he afraid that his description is not clear enough the next time he makes a note?

"Let's go to Nanhu Bieyuan!" Zhu Qiyu began to go downstairs. He planned to celebrate the New Year in Nanhu Bieyuan. The lakeside Bieyuan, which covers an area of ​​more than [-] mu, is more comfortable than living in the palace.

The imperial city in the capital of Nanjing has not been repaired for many years, so it is natural to deal with it, but with a better house, of course he lives in a better place.

Although Nanhu Bieyuan is small, it is exquisite enough.

Zhu Qiyu said to Li Xian while walking: "Let the Dibao write this matter from beginning to end. I have persuaded you again and again, and what they said in Shenle Xiandu, you must write it down."

"Let the world see what happens to speculators."

Li Xian bowed his head and said: "The minister accepts the decree."

He glanced at the merchants who were buried by the coal blast again, with a smile on his face, he learned.

Zhu Qiyu is very good at killing people and killing people's hearts. This point, from top to bottom in Beiya, has a deep understanding.

If the emperor doesn't move, I won't move; if the emperor moves, I'll be terrified.

In Beiya, it was a nursery rhyme that even children could sing.

Do whatever your majesty says, don't make trouble with your majesty if you have nothing to do, it's making yourself uncomfortable.

A group of idiots gathered in the coal yard outside the Sanchuan Gate.

At this time, the Immortal Liudu has gathered a group of smart people.

The smart people in the capital of the gods, they know for sure that at this point, the three merchants have nothing to do.

Everyone is done.

The musicians here are very busy today. They are still singing the songs they have sung for thousands of years.

The person who sang the song was a famous Jiangnan actor who was hired at a high price.

Originally, this famous actor was invited to sing a song to celebrate that the weather has turned clear and the snow has melted, so they can prepare to sell coal bombs to make money.

"I once saw that the jasper trees in Jinling are singing dawn, and the waterside pavilions in the Qinhuai River are blooming early. Who knew it would be easy to melt away!"

"Seeing him lift up the Zhulou, seeing him banqueting guests, seeing his building collapse."

"This pile of moss and green tiles, I have slept in a romantic sleep, and I will see the rise and fall of 50 years."

A middle-aged merchant stood up, clapped his hands continuously, and then put the last ingot of gold flower silver in his hand on the desk as tea money.

I saw the middle-aged merchant jump and landed in the Qinhuai River downstairs.

Ice was frozen on the Qinhuai River, but the ice layer was not thick. This jump smashed through the ice, and there was a gurgling sound, and a handful of blood mist rose from the water.

Then dozens of people jumped down from the Qinjin Building one after another and smashed into the Qinhuai River.

The sound of bang bang bang is endless.

"That Wuyi Lane is not surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at night in Mochou Lake, and owls live in Phoenix Terrace. The dream of the remnant mountain is the most real, and the old scene is hard to lose. I don't believe that this map has been changed."

"Sing a set of "Sorrow in the South of the Yangtze River", and sing it sadly until you grow old." The famous actor in the south of the Yangtze River put away his pipa and sang the forty chapters of "The Story of Yingying".

"Oh." A sigh.

She finished singing, but there was no audience left.

At this time, Zhu Qiyu summoned all the ministers in the Helin Hall of Nanhu Bieyuan.

Zhu Qiyu has never been a bloodthirsty person.

But the smile on his face kept going today. He did a big event and gave Emperor Taizong a sigh of relief.

At that time, Emperor Taizu Gao wanted to move the capital, but his prince Zhu Biao was exhausted. Emperor Taizong Wen wanted to move the capital, but finally left.

Isn't it because Nanjing City is not absolutely loyal enough?Zhu Qiyu was very happy today, he gave Emperor Taizu a bad word.

These turtle grandchildren were buried by the coal mountain they piled up in the lower reaches of the Qinhuai River today, and jumped down in the gold selling cave in the upper reaches of the Qinhuai River.

Zhu Qiyu smiled all over his face.

happy.

"But we can't relax our vigilance. Although Nanjing City is peaceful, I have some ideas." Zhu Qiyu stopped smiling and said calmly.

"Do you think Nanzhili is really too big? Here is so rich, Yingtian Mansion, Suzhou Mansion, Fengyang Mansion, and Yangzhou Mansion are too rich and too big."

Zhu Qiyu said in a low voice: "Why don't we tear him down."
