Emperor Hongzhi still didn't believe it.

The Lords had no intention of attending the morning court at all, and just wanted to see if what the Jinyiwei said was the truth.

What method did Yan Chengjin use to make the gentry flock to him.

Han Wen was very calm and knew that this man was only half of his words and was still keeping his back.

"One million taels are enough to build two hundred mansions." Cao Yuan sighed.

The mansions in the capital are very expensive, often 510,000 taels, but they are so expensive that they are in the location and are sparse, so the cost is far less expensive.

In addition, the land belongs to the court, so there is no need to spend a penny of silver.

The location is still in the outer city. In just one morning, I collected one million taels, so this must have used an extraordinary method.

When I arrived in front of the Hongzhi business, I saw many gentry lined up in a long queue and squeezed into the business.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but ask: "Where is Yan Chengjin?"

Although I heard about it in advance, when I saw this scene, Emperor Hongzhi and the Duke wanted to know how Yan Chengjin got the money?

Soon, Yan Chengjin appeared in his sight: "I did not directly collect the cash, but asked the gentry to deposit the silver into the business. After obtaining the land deed, the business could get the certificate of depositing the silver."

In this way, the business name became the guarantee of the court.

Even if the gentry could not get the mansion, the money would only be stored in the business and there was no loss.

"But why are the gentry so urgent?" Liu Jian saw something unusual.

Even if you have a guarantee, you won’t be so anxious, as if you will get rich if you buy it.

Yan Chengjin pulled out a piece of paper from his cuff: "The land I have built is the land facing south of the capital. When gentry from all over the south of the Yangtze River enters the city, they will definitely pass here."

There are four directions: southeast, west and northwest of the capital. Xuanfu is in the north, and there are very few people.

It faces northwest to the west, and there is no one there, and it’s okay to go to the east.

The most crowded people are facing the south, Baoding, Hejian, Jiangnan, and even Guangzhou and Fujian, all of which have to enter the city from here.

Although it has not been expanded yet, there are countless people entering the city every day.

Yan Chengjin divided the mansion into eight tiers, 200 taels, 500 taels, 1,000 taels, and the highest 20,000 taels. The engineers in Liangxiang drew drawings for the people to choose. The mansion is limited, and the closer they are to the main road, the more expensive it is. After completion, it will be purchased, and the price will be 20% more expensive. There is only one requirement, and you cannot make a deposit for credit, so you can purchase it in full. "I have one thing to report to Your Majesty. Some buildings may be higher than the imperial city." The buildings around the imperial city must be lower than the imperial city. First, no one is allowed to overtake the emperor, and second, it is higher than the palace.

The wall can look at the palace and lay hidden dangers of assassination. These are inconsistent with the etiquette system. Zhang Sheng retorted: "There is no need for such a towering palace." Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "What do you want to build?" "Build the Five City Military and Horse Office." There are more buildings in the capital, and preventing and controlling fires has become extremely important. The Five City Military and Horse Office is responsible for transportation and fire protection. This decision seems simple, but it will play an important role after it is completed. It only depends on whether Your Majesty allows it? The Five City Military and Horse Office is not a private house. Emperor Hongzhi thought about it and agreed.

Wang Ao and his friends also wanted to buy a mansion, but they were a little embarrassed.

Yan Chengjin returned to the mansion, but saw Zhang Fuhua carrying his hands on her back, and the old god was looking at his mansion.

Zhang Fuhua also saw Yan Chengjin and smiled: "When I entered the capital, I regarded Lord Yan as young and looked down upon him. I have recently reviewed many Lord Yan's scribes and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has made great achievements."

Are you sure you didn't come to buy a mansion?

Yan Chengjin was wary: "Does Lord Zhang want to flatter me to make a fuss about my personal gain?"

I thought Yan Chengjin would greet him with a smile, but this son was so naked that Zhang Fuhua rushed to the sky spirit cover with an old mouthful of blood: "I just admire your talent!"

"Please go back, Lord Zhang."

Zhang Fuhua came from Nanjing and asked King Ning to beg for the guards. Whether intentional or unintentional, Yan Chengjin needed to be wary of it.

But if Zhang Fuhua also supports the change, the resistance will be smaller.

The capital began to build a large amount of construction, and the timber was transported from south to north, and many powerful labors gathered in the capital.

In just three months, you can see the loess outside the south gate of the capital being moved to flat ground.

He worked hard to drill a solid foundation and built a number of mansions. When he saw the strong gentry who came to Beijing to buy a mansion, there were even more.

Emperor Hongzhi read the memorial in the main hall. When he remembered the plan outside the capital, he couldn't help but feel happy: "Soon, the capital will be comparable to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty."

Yan Chengjin lowered his head, except for the capital, the Ming Dynasty was as poor as a place with a lot of poverty.

Today, he saw a memorial, which was from Jiang Xin Office, Changle County, Shaoxing Prefecture, and asked to reduce silk taxes and change to plant grain.

Cao Yuan's face looked joyful: "Your Majesty, I received a memorial from Wang Yuncheng of Shaoxing Prefecture. Changle and Sheng County disobeyed the imperial decree and refused to pay silk taxes."

The festive atmosphere in the hall dissipated.

Emperor Hongzhi's expression became silent. The court under my rule had such disobedience.

Liu Jian showed doubts: "The parents and officials of the two counties joined forces to fight against the exemption, but is there any hidden truth?"

"According to Wang Yuncheng's words, it was because a silver mine was discovered in Taibai Mountain. The two of them were proud of their merits and did not accept taxes from the court." This was what Cao Yuan wrote in the memorial that he read.

The discovery of silver mines in Taibai Mountain made Emperor Hongzhi and Li Dongyang's eyes lit up.

Liu Jian felt strange: "Why didn't there be any comments coming to the cabinet?"

"It is a memorial sent to the minister."

This is to make Cao Yuan make contributions. Taibai Mountain is in Changle County, and the words of self-reliance on his merits will wipe out the contributions of Jiang Xin and the others.

Yan Chengjin couldn't help but look up. Wang Yuncheng's Taoist practice was too low, so he used these words to confuse the masters.

Sure enough, Li Dongyang asked: "Please exempt the silk tax, it is also for the people. Why do you come from it? This memorial is suspicious."

Liu Jian and his friends nodded, and they knew they were confused and greedy for merit.

Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Why is no one coming from the Censorate?"

"Report to your Majesty, there is no one in the Censorate."

After Wang Shouren was appointed as the Right Minister of War, the position of the Censor and the Minister of Rites was always empty.

The dukes wanted to know what happened in Shaoxing Prefecture, but they didn't start.

Cao Yuan's back felt feverish, and the dukes said that this memorial was suspicious, and the implication was that Wang Yunshi was confused.

"I want to impeach the Minister of Works, Cao Yuan," said Yan Chengjin.

The men's heart skipped a beat and were caught off guard.

As if he smelled a crisis, he stared at Yan Chengjin's cuffs.

This guy is holding two booklets!

Yan Chengjin said: "I also have a memorial here, please give your Majesty a red message."

Xiao Jingxiao jogged down and handed the memorial to Emperor Hongzhi.

This is a completely opposite memorial, Jiang Xin exposed Wang Yuncheng as a private gangster and falsely accused him of false accusations.

After reading this memorial, Emperor Hongzhi's face turned gloomy: "Why are there two kinds of arguments? What about the censor of Shaoxing Prefecture?"

"Report to Your Majesty, no one has been on duty since Qiu Zhong resigned."

The appointment of the censor is nominated by the Censorate Department and sent to the Ministry of Personnel for appointment.

But the Censorate has never had a minister.

Yan Chengjin's intention to impeach Cao Yuan was to serve as the chief censor.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yan Chengjin: "Didn't I let Yan Qing's family serve as a part-time member?"

"Your Majesty said that when Wang Shouren went north, he was appointed by his ministers. Now, Wang Shouren has returned to the capital." Yan Chengjin said.

The ministers guessed Yan Chengjin's intention, but the mansion in the capital was about to open soon. Now, if you stop it, you will be in a dilemma for purchasing a mansion at that time.

Suddenly, hesitated a little.

Emperor Hongzhi could see at a glance that this son wanted an official position from him, "The Censorate will continue to be under the jurisdiction of Yan Qing's family."
