Chapter 533 Leaving Yangzhou

Cao Bang looked at Huang Changzong, and the expression on his face suddenly became solemn.

Of course he understood what Huang Changzong meant. Chen Hong realized that something was wrong as soon as he followed him. Now, after hearing Huang Changzong's explanation, he understood.

Obviously, the emperor could not say such things, and could only let his subordinates say it.

I originally thought the matter was over, but I didn’t expect there would be such a stir. But it doesn’t matter if I spent some money. It’s no big deal to take out the money from the family, so I’ll give it to me.

Huang Changzong, who was standing aside, looked at Cao Bang's expression changing constantly, and thought he was reluctant to let it go.

Huang Changzong quickly persuaded him earnestly: "Brother Cao, don't be reluctant to let go. Those are just things outside the body. As long as you keep a useful body, you won't have to worry about gathering money back one day. Didn't Li Bai say it? I was born to be useful, and I will come back after all the money was lost. As long as we leave it useful, money is not a trivial matter? Don't take it to your heart, we will have more opportunities to make money in the future."

"Brother Huang, don't persuade me." Cao Bang nodded with a smile and said, "I still understand this principle. This result is already very good. Being able to keep these things now is the best result. If it is the same as the Han family, there will be nothing left."

"Although I like money, I also know that this money cannot always be held in my hands. After I go back, I will count it immediately and hand it over. I hope Brother Huang will have more good words in front of His Majesty."

When Huang Changzong heard this, he finally felt relieved and nodded and said, "This is fine. But you still have to find someone to cooperate with this matter, so I am not suitable for it and need to avoid suspicion. Looking back, I discussed with Eunuch Chen to see if they can send someone to cooperate with you to count it. I just said that you have insufficient staff and need help."

Cao Bang also understood that this was to let the court supervise him, and he could not leave any handle. He could only ask others for help, but not to say that he wanted others to supervise him.

Cao Bang nodded and said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem with this."

"Okay, then that's it." Huang Changzong said.

At the same time, in Lichunyuan.

Zhu Youxiao moved his body. These days he was really a gentle jade and warm fragrance in Lichun Courtyard, and it was also a rare time to relax.

But Zhu Youxiao knew that it was time to move his body. At this time, if he continued to stay, he might be making trouble outside again.

After looking at Chen Hong who was walking over from outside, Zhu Youxiao said, "Prepare, leave Yangzhou today. Come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Yes, the emperor." Chen Hong quickly agreed.

Of course, I went out quietly this time. When I came back, I could not come back quietly. That is, the emperor came in person, greeted what should be greeted, feared what should be jealous, and confessed what should be guilty.

When Zhu Youxiao was about to leave Yangzhou, news about Yangzhou City had already spread.

First the Han family was arrested, and then the Ye family was arrested, which can be said to have completely shocked the entire Yangzhou city.

The middle and lower levels may not feel obvious, but they are already panicked. The top level is so scared now. Everyone is crazily inquiring about the news and want to know what happened.

Especially as the incident gradually became clear, the prefect of Yangzhou was arrested, and the transferee of Yangzhou Chen Zhenglin was also arrested. In the following days, more than 40 administrators of all sizes in Yangzhou were arrested, and even people from the Royal Academy were arrested.

Xu Guangqi, a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet sent by the court, was in charge, Chen Sihai, the Tongzheng Secretary, arrested people everywhere, and the Jinyiwei was also arresting people, and the people in Yangzhou were panic.

However, at this time, it is not without the act of stabilizing people's hearts.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to Yangzhou and began to recruit workers in Yangzhou City, increasing the wages that originally worked for the Han family and Ye family, and providing unprecedented recruitment conditions.

The sayings of eating official food and iron rice bowl are also rampant. In short, there is a trend of ice and fire in Yangzhou City.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs also purchased goods in Yangzhou, and the price was very high.

You should know that the current Ministry of Internal Affairs is a huge circulating nationwide. With such logistics, they will be more convenient and quick in doing business, and all kinds of goods are in short supply. Whether it is sold to North Korea or to the northwest, they will make a lot of profits.

Originally, Zhu Youxiao did not allow the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make a big move, but now it is OK.

In front of these capitals of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the merchants in Jiangnan were also crushed without any hesitation.

In addition to collusion between officials and businessmen, except for those salt traders, the business environment in Jiangnan can be said to be very poor. The monopoly effect caused by salt traders is very strong, and small merchants from all over the country cannot do business at all. Even if they do business, they are affiliated with salt traders. As long as they make money in other industries, salt traders will also get involved.

It's different now. The Ministry of Internal Affairs only acquires and does not interfere in the operation. After the fall of the salt merchants, the business environment in Jiangnan showed a very cheerful scene. Everyone thought they could do something big and make a fortune.

At this moment, Yangzhou City received another news that the emperor was about to come to Yangzhou.

For a moment, Yangzhou City was in a turmoil, and everyone was waiting for the emperor to arrive.

On the day when Zhu Youxiao came to Yangzhou, Yangzhou City opened, but he still had to enter and not leave.

As for the supply of goods in Yangzhou City, it is naturally fine. The Ministry of Internal Affairs mobilized ships and vehicles to send a large number of supplies in. It is naturally fine to supply Yangzhou City. As long as no one hoarded goods, it would last for a long time.

Does anyone dare to hoard goods at this time?

The answer is no.

The collapse of the Han family and Ye family indicates the elimination of the entire Yangzhou upper class. The big merchants are no longer able to do anything like hoarding. Small and medium-sized merchants are busy contacting the Ministry of Internal Affairs and want to get a share of the big orders of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The Office of the Interior, which was originally acquiring, felt that the speed was too slow and wanted to change it.

For a moment, the shopping malls in Yangzhou City were surging.

After Zhu Youxiao entered Yangzhou City, he moved directly into the Yangzhou Prefect's Office.

Others were scattered throughout Yangzhou City.

For a moment, the entire Yangzhou City became cautious.

The ruffians on the street were gone, and there were no more messy people. Even the shouts of brothels were much lower, and the casinos were no longer as loud as they were. Many casinos even chose to close their business, fearing that someone would find their own heads.

Zhu Youxiao didn't care about this at all.

After the emperor arrived in Yangzhou City, the Jinyiwei and Tongzhengsi became more bold and began to grab people.

In addition to Yangzhou City, the tentacles of the Jinyiwei and Tongzhengsi had already stretched out and began to catch people around.

The Yangzhou Prefectural Office also issued a notice and began to accept civil reports that no matter who it is to sue, anyone who it is possible. After interrogating the crime, all of them will be severely punished and will never be tolerated.

If the land is occupied, it will be refunded and compensated, no matter who it is.

Zhu Youxiao made it so big in Yangzhou City that Yangzhou City, which was originally panicked, calmed down a little under such a policy.

At the same time, all kinds of people who had been ambushing have also made a debut at this time.

All the things in the arrested families of the Han family and the Ye family were revealed. How they did evil and how they were so evil, one by one, one by one, were listed.

This is what Zhu Youxiao used to win people's hearts. To put it bluntly, now he is in Yangzhou City, no one dares to make trouble. But once he leaves, someone may make up his rumors and say some messy words.

This will affect the people's hearts of Zhu Youjia. Zhu Youjia waited for so long before taking action, in order not only to cause damage, but also to maintain and build as much as possible.

Now that these salt merchants in Yangzhou City have been captured, we must rebuild confidence in Yangzhou City.

If they are allowed to lose trust in the court, and if they feel that the court arrests people for money, it will make the businessmen lose confidence and feel that the social environment is uneasy and the environment in Yangzhou is very poor, which is not good.

Zhu Youxiao is a martial ethics person. He had already arranged for people to jump out and promote this at this time, which is political correctness. If anyone spreads rumors, it would be a tyrant, spreads right and wrong, and arrests people directly.

For a moment, the atmosphere in Yangzhou City rose sharply.

The method Zhu Youxiao took was very simple. He recruited workers through the Ministry of Internal Affairs to raise their wages, so that they could have work and make money. When the emperor came, you lived a better life. Those people bullied you and exploited you all day long, but the emperor would not.

For middle-level merchants, the Ministry of Internal Affairs bought the goods in their hands, increased the purchase price, and gave them money to do more things and expand production.

For top-level businessmen, in addition to fiddling with salt, Zhu Youxiao adopted a strategy to strictly investigate and punish them. He convicted whatever crimes he had, punished them, and punished them.

Then we contact and cooperate and support them, and give the same benefits as they should. The purpose is to tell them that there is no problem in doing business well, but if you make trouble, you can die.

The atmosphere around Yangzhou City suddenly improved, and he also praised Zhu Youxiao.

Needless to say, those who are trampled down are naturally trampled into the mud.

The arrested officials were the same, and all the wrong cases were revealed.

How to collude with salt merchants and oppress the people, write them all one by one.

After a few days of publicity, the emperor approved the beheading directly.

On the day of beheading, Yangzhou City can be said to be crowded with people and gathered a lot of people.

Zhu Youxiao was on the city gate of Yangzhou, looking at the bustling crowd below, with no expression on his face.
