227 Ransomware
Zhang Weixian entertained Ye Xun, and finally he was generous. Not to mention delicacies from mountains and seas, he also found two heavyweight companions, one was Xiangcheng Bohou Ying, and the other was Yongding Marquis Zhao Nanqi.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, apart from Zhu Di Jingnan, there have been few knights, which means that these two people are both descendants of meritorious service.

After some empty-handed politeness, the four sat down as guests and hosts.

Ye Xun also didn't see him, and smiled directly: "My lord, it's not easy! Every time I come here, I always have a cup of clear tea. I thought that the Duke has already cultivated so much that he can't eat the fireworks of the world, haha!"

Zhang Weixian feigned anger and said: "You talk too much, as if my British government has neglected the guests. You must drink well today. If you don't drink well, you are not allowed to leave. Have you seen my two old brothers? I just came here to deal with you of"

Hou Ying interjected and said with a smile: "I have heard that Eunuch Ye is very generous. When our brothers were in the military camp, we were not afraid of anyone when drinking. Eunuch Ye should not hide his secrets today!"

"It turns out that the Earl was also a soldier. It's really great. What our family dislikes the most is sitting with those dignified civil servants. Don't worry, I will definitely accompany several old lords today."

Ye Xun didn't seem to have any intentions, but a word of sanctimoniousness made the expressions of several old guys unnatural, because this sentence hit too much.

Ye Xun put down the wine glass in his hand, and said calmly: "Mr. Zhang has helped me. Our family is not an ungrateful person, so if you have anything to say, you can just say it. It's too unpleasant to beat around the bush. Don't let me underestimate the elders."

The nobles obviously didn't expect Ye Xun to go straight to the point. Under normal circumstances, everyone should have a drink first, and then take advantage of the strength of the wine to do everything that needs to be done. This is the general wine table procedure. Change the rules?
Zhang Weixian was a little more familiar with Ye Xun, so he broke the embarrassment first, and said with a wry smile: "You kid, can't you save some face for us old guys? You have to be so straightforward."

"Okay! Let's talk straight, the old man asks you, what happened to that sea merchant?"

Ye Xun put down the wine glass, but picked up the chopsticks, gesticulating as if he wanted to eat something, but in the end he didn't pick it up.

After putting down the chopsticks, he sighed, and said, "There is a saying in our family that I don't know whether you agree with it or not? It's that if you have money, everyone distributes it together. It's like this table of delicacies. I want to eat, but I don't know where to start. Can some old lords teach me?"

Although the words were a bit cryptic, the person sitting here is not a human being, so he still couldn't understand the meaning of Ye Xun's words.

But if you understand it, it's another matter whether you do it or not, and who can guarantee that Ye Xun is not bluffing?

At this time, Ye Xun took out a piece of paper full of words from his sleeve and put it on the table, saying: "Do you know this person? If you don't, our family will start fighting tomorrow."

Zhao Nanqi was sitting on Ye Xun's right hand side, he picked up the paper naturally, and then stared at it, he saw that it was a confession, which stated that in a certain year and a certain month, the family of Ding Feng, the inspector of the Inspectorate, sent a batch of silk and The porcelain was handed over to him, and then he exchanged it for silver taels in Japan, and then handed it over to Ding Feng's family, etc. The last part of the confession was the name and fingerprints of the donor.

Looking at this confession, Zhao Nanqi's expression changed immediately, because he also knew the person who made the confession, and had done business with him.

When Hou Ying saw Zhao Nanqi's expression, he guessed a little bit about the content of the confession, but still took it, looked at it for a while, and then handed it over to Zhang Weixian.

Although there are people doing ocean trade in this era, there are only a few companies that can form a scale, and these companies are inextricably linked. It can be said that one is prosperous and the other is damaged.

Civil officials like Ding Feng are the ones who call the ancestral system of the Forbidden Sea the loudest in the court, but they are secretly running these rich business routes. If this matter is publicized, not only will these officials Losing his reputation will also cut off many people's financial resources, and a major earthquake will occur in the officialdom of Ming Dynasty. It can be said that no one can bear the consequences.

The banquet, which was supposed to be lively and lively, suddenly became strangely quiet because of the appearance of this piece of paper.

But I heard Ye Xun speak again, saying: "I still have more than a dozen copies of such a confession. As for whether I will show it or not, it depends on my mood. How about it? Several old lords, this Wine, shall we still drink?"

Zhang Weixian didn't know this sea merchant named Niu Shuangquan, and his family had people in charge of these matters, but from the faces of the two old men, he could already see that Ye Xun was not just bluffing, but had a solid hammer.

Immediately said in a deep voice: "Grandpa Ye, Ming people don't talk dark words, talk about your conditions, how can you suppress this matter?"

"First, our family needs 300 million taels of silver as capital, and second, my people need to join in, to understand the specific market here, so as not to be deceived by others in the future."

How much is the annual tax of Ming Dynasty?Ye Xun actually opened his mouth for 300 million taels, isn't that black enough?

But this astronomical figure in the eyes of others is nothing in the eyes of Zhang Weixian and others, because the wool comes from the sheep, they will not take a penny, and the money is not given by one family, let these sea merchants get it A few million taels of silver, is that much?

Seeing the faces of the old guys, Ye Xun couldn't help but regret that the money was running low.

Hou Ying interjected, "How can Eunuch Ye ensure that this matter will not be leaked?"

Ye Xun smiled and said: "I can't guarantee it, you can choose not to believe it, this is what you want, Ye will never force it"

What kind of free trade is this?It is clear that Ye Xun is buying and selling by force, but these people can only be dumb and eat yellow lotus. Only you know how much suffering.

It's already such an atmosphere, how can I drink wine?Ye Xun just said goodbye and left.

There were only three old guys left in the hall, and the three of them had no interest in drinking anymore.

Hou Ying and Zhao Nanqi looked at Zhang Weixian together, apparently waiting for him to make up his mind.

Zhang Weixian was silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Let's spread the news! Just think of us as contributing to the imperial court, but this eunuch is too dark."

After hearing Zhang Weixian's words, Hou Ying and Zhao Nanqi couldn't help but smile wryly at each other.

When Ye Xun came out of Zhang Weixian's house, it was already dark. Looking up at the vast night sky, Ye Xun suddenly remembered the girl named Baozhu.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
Traveling to ancient times, who wouldn't want to be surrounded by beautiful wives and concubines?But for Baozhu, Ye Xun really had an indescribable emotion. He didn't want this girl to get hurt, and he didn't want her to follow him in fear, especially for a person like himself whose body would return to normal at some point.

Back in the mansion, both Hongxiu and the Hua family sisters were still awake. Strictly speaking, Hongxiu was not very old, only twenty, and in Ye Xun's eyes, it was just the age of opening up.

The three girls are now much more affectionate than Ye Xun. If it wasn't for Ye Xun who really didn't have time, he would be jealous of the relationship between them.

Back in his room, before he could sit still, Hongxiu came in and threw a note to Ye Xun.

"A man came to the palace just now and said that this is a handwritten letter from the crown prince, please read it quickly!".
