Chapter 65: Searching Jiangnan and reaping great rewards!
Jiangnan, Nanjing City, Su Mansion.
The Su family is a powerful family that has risen in recent decades. They make money mainly through maritime trade and work as pirates on the side. Every penny of silver and copper coin in their hands is stained with blood.
But the Su family spent money to gain connections with the officialdom, and with the support of others, they have been making a fortune and having a steady flow of income over the years.
At this time, Su Wei, the head of the Su family, was drinking with his beautiful concubine in the hall, and she was very pretty.
Suddenly, a large number of Dongchang thugs came in and quickly arrested people.
Su Wei's eyes widened with anger. He asked, "What are you doing? Do you know who my father-in-law is?"
Yang Yong, the Third Officer of the Eastern Depot, said with a smile, "I know. I'm just a small official from the Nanjing City Ministry of Revenue. Don't worry, someone from your father-in-law's family will be there too!"
Not to mention the person in charge, most of the officials in Nanjing, big and small, including ministers and vice ministers of various departments, were on the list of the pig-killing operation.
Chu Feng gave them a chance, filling the hole of their corruption, which was their last chance of survival!
But some people are blinded by money and cannot see a way out. Not only do they cheat, they even go further to extort money from the people!
Chu Feng had no choice but to help them!
Some people colluded with the Japanese pirates, and their entire clans were executed!
The rest of them are not that clean either!
But as an emperor, Chu Feng always had to weigh the pros and cons and leave some officials who were familiar with the affairs to do the work, and these people could only pay fines.
As for the many vacant official positions, Chu Feng didn't care. He could just promote a group of available officials from the remaining officials and use them as his confidants.
As for other vacant positions, some alternate officials can replace them.
Chu Feng also strictly monitors these officials who have been promoted from substitutes to regular officials.
If you don't do well, you will be fired.
Serious corruption, house search, one more person added to the list of executions in autumn!
At the same time, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Hulong Villa, and the No. 1 Villa in the World were all taking quick action.
Among them, the Jinyiwei had the largest number of people, leading 5000 people in this operation, and their performance was the most outstanding.
Soon the entire city of Nanjing was plowed, hundreds of corrupt officials were arrested, and nearly a hundred aristocratic families were destroyed!
The gold, silver and copper coins they confiscated were worth more than 3000 million taels of silver!
There are also large quantities of grain, antique calligraphy and paintings, various industries, land deeds, land deeds, and mansions, which are difficult to value.
This is just the city of Nanjing!
In the entire Jiangnan region, it would be no problem to find at least 100 million taels!
Most of those caught were executed in autumn, and a small number of those whose crimes were less serious were exiled.
Some of the female family members will enter the Jiaofangsi!
The news of the Nanjing raid spread quickly, shocking the entire Jiangnan region. Soon, a rebel king from the royal family emerged, occupied several prefectures, and had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, with the potential to spread like wildfire.
In fact, at this time, most of the princes were reduced to dogs. (This is not the period of the historical Ning Wang rebellion, but a fictional history, corresponding to the end of the Ming Dynasty.)
Shangguan Haitang and others all knew that this rebellious prince was just a shield put forward by the local aristocratic families, and this was also a counterattack by the aristocratic families in Jiangnan!
If they stopped the search and contacted the wealthy families in Jiangnan, with their help, the rebellious king could be quickly put down.
On the contrary, these aristocratic families will increase their support for this rebellious prince, allowing the rebellion to spread to several provinces!
Let the emperor know that Jiangnan is not the world of the imperial court, but the back garden of the aristocratic families!
But they underestimated Chu Feng's courage!
Soon after, 1 troops from the capital appeared to suppress the rebellion, assisted by 1 sunflower guards. In less than a month, the rebellion that affected the four prefectures had been put down!
Then came the Great Purge!
Killing heads rolling in!
All the wealthy families and businessmen who supported him behind the scenes will be executed!
Rebellion is no joke, clan extermination is the lightest punishment, and it is possible to exterminate three or nine clans!
Afterwards, the searches by the four departments including the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard began to spread to the entire Jiangnan region, directly carrying out a complete cleanup.
There were many resistance forces, and even a powerful innate realm master emerged, causing considerable losses to the four major forces, but they were quickly destroyed!
Because at this time Gui Hai Yidao, Duan Tianya, and Cheng Shifei have all broken through the innate realm and their strength has greatly increased!
Among them, Cheng Shifei had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, and Gu Santong had passed on some of his power to him.
The power of a top-notch innate master is far beyond that of an ordinary innate master. As a result, Cheng Shifei's power improved greatly and he quickly broke through to the innate realm.
The breakthroughs of Gui Hai Yidao and Duan Tianya were all due to Chu Feng. He not only taught the peerless martial arts of Chunyang Wuji Gong to the two of them and Shangguan Haitang, but also taught them martial arts respectively.
Of course, in return, he also obtained the Phantom Sword and the Heartless Slash. Under Chu Feng's guidance (deception), Gui Hai Yi Dao reversed the Heartless Slash's sword intent and realized that only by being extremely emotional can one be extremely emotional in the sword!
At present, his strength is already extremely strong in the innate realm!
If he fights with Cao Zhengchun again, he may not win, but his strength will be close to this level.
Duan Tianya's phantom sword also broke through, and similar to Gui Hai Yidao, he also comprehended a powerful and compassionate sword intent!
It was the presence of Xue Ji and the child that inspired his sword intent and potential!
The reason why Chu Feng taught the three people was to balance right and wrong.
Today, Cheng Shifei possesses three great magical skills: the Vajra Indestructible Magic Skill, the Power Absorbing Skill, and the Pure Yang Wuji Skill, and his combat power far exceeds that of his peers.
In the future, before Gu Santong passes away, he will definitely pass all his skills to him.
At that time, Cheng Shifei might become the next Shen Hou and Cao Zhengchun.
Therefore, Chu Feng trained Gui Hai Yidao, Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang.
The three of them are the protagonists of the story. They all have amazing talents and potential, and they will be able to balance right and wrong in the future.
In addition, there is a veteran strong man in the world's No. 1 Village, who is the best swordsman in the world, Jingfeng, and his strength is not inferior to Gui Hai Yidao at this moment!
On the contrary, the East Factory has the fewest top masters. Although Liu Jin has practiced hard for three years, he is still some distance away from the peak of the Condensation Stage, and his battle record is slightly poor.
With so many powerful Xiantian realm masters taking action, even though the Jiangnan aristocratic families had a deep foundation and more than one Xiantian realm master emerged, and they repeatedly rose up in rebellion, they were still quickly put down!
More than three months later, the entire Jiangnan region was cleansed, the pig-killing operation was a complete success, and the three major forces of the East Factory, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the Hulong Villa returned to the court!
As for the 1 capital troops and 1 sunflower guards, they stayed behind because their next mission was to wipe out the Japanese pirates!
Now that the Japanese pirates' internal supporters are gone, it is much easier to wipe out the remaining real Japanese pirates.
Duan Tianya and Jian Jingfeng from the No. 1 Manor in the World assisted them in suppressing the Japanese pirates.
After all, there are many masters among the Japanese pirates!
In addition, Chu Feng plans to move the No. 1 Manor in the World to Nanjing City and change it to the Humin Villa.
With one in the south and one in the north, the intelligence network has more comprehensive coverage.
A month later, Qianqing Palace.
Chu Feng received the results of this pig-killing operation, including gold, silver and copper coins worth about 1.3 million taels of silver, and other grains, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, mansion deeds, land deeds, properties, etc., worth about 1.4 million taels.
There are also many priceless skills, martial arts, and classics, including some top-notch skills that can be used to cultivate the innate realm!
As for the half-percent bonuses of the four organizations including the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, about 684.2 million taels had been deducted in advance.
Each of the four organizations can basically get more than one million taels, which is definitely a huge sum of money, enough for them to have a prosperous year!
With such a huge harvest this time, the national treasury will be completely enriched!
However, Chu Feng was not confident about the corrupt officials in the court, so he deposited 6500 million taels of silver into his own treasury and sent his trusted eunuch to serve as the chief steward of the inner court.
Moreover, the position of general manager is subject to a rotation and supervision system!
Anyone who dares to embezzle even a penny of silver will be severely punished. If it exceeds ten taels, the person will be beheaded!
You dare to embezzle my money. Who else should I kill if not you?
Another 6500 million taels of silver were deposited into the national treasury.
Chu Feng is not worried at all that they will be greedy for this money!
Anyway, the four major intelligence agencies, including the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, are all waiting for merit and want to take advantage!
If you are greedy for a few dozen or a hundred taels, I will ignore you!
If you are too greedy, we will confiscate your property, execute you in autumn, and send you to the Jiaofang Bureau, all-in-one service!
Not only did I not lose anything, I made a lot of money!
Please read it!
In history, there was a Prince Ning who rebelled, but the prototype of Tiedan Shenhou was actually Prince Ning, so I will not write about it here.
