"Mr. Fushan, I accidentally learned about the seven surnames of Fujian and Zhejiang a few days ago. They control the bureau in Quanzhou. Have you heard of these seven surnames of the people?"

Before He Xinyin could speak, Li Zhi smiled and said, "Oh, I know that these guys can't sit still. The so-called seven major surnames in Fujian and Zhejiang include the seven families of 'Li Pan, Jiang Lei, Cai Xu Zheng', but it is not static. A few years ago, there were Ying and Fang families. As for the next few years, the status of the Li and Xu families will be shaky. ￥f. ￥f" Li Zhi smiled and said, "Mr. Tang, how do you feel when you hear these families?"

Tang Yi smiled bitterly, "It's either rich or noble. There are only a few dozen senior officials in the imperial court. The family is in the southeast and can hook up with the sea. It's not difficult to guess. These seven major families are either in the court, or have been engaged in maritime trade for many years. Some families even immigrated overseas, such as Japan, Ryukyu, and Luzon. They colluded internally and externally and had a huge power."

As soon as these words were said, Li Zhi and He Xin showed a look of horror. They all thought that Tang Yi was young and might not know about these pullovers. Now it seems that people know no less than them!

He Xinyin breathed out a breath of turbid air and said contemptuously: "The so-called seven major surnames are included in the Yan Party, and the Xu Party also exists in the Xu Party! It is really heartbreaking and unbearable to hear questions!"

"Brother Fushan, I have said a long time ago that the people in the court are all the same party, called gold and silver parties. When they see the silver, they pounce on them. The difference is that some people rob more and some people rob less. As a result, they bite their dogs and their mouths. They are all birds of feathers, no matter how different they are." Li Zhi said boastfully.

Tang Yi's face was full of darkness. He finally saw the style of "He Cang Li Kuang". These two masters dared to say anything, but they were afraid that they would even take him in.

Tang Yi smiled awkwardly, "Two gentlemen, the clear ones are clear, and the turbid ones are turbid. There is still some difference in the end. Otherwise, we might as well retreat to the mountains and forests and farm and study. Why do we have to run around and shout in the world? The ruthless way of heaven will not be discussed. People's hearts are immortal. The two of them see injustice, so they draw their swords to help each other. On behalf of the people of Quanzhou, Tang thanked them again for their kindness."

Tang Yi said, bowing to show his respect. Li Zhi stood up to pay his respects, but He Xinyin just nodded.

"Mr. Tang, I have visited Mr. Jingchuan. He highly praised him and said that he has the talent to manage the world and help the people. I am impressed him. But I think that to do things, you must have great courage, great determination and great courage. Only by thunder means can you show the heart of a Bodhisattva."

He Xinyin wanted to continue talking, but Li Zhi quietly kicked him. Don’t look at the Xinxue Portal that you are one generation older than Tang Yi, you really think of yourself as your uncle and can teach others a lesson!

You should know that Tang Yi’s official position or status in Shilin are far from comparable to He Xinyin, who is in the wild. He Xinyin also knew that he had passed a little, and his face turned red with a rare moment, "Mr. Tang, I don’t mean to blame me, but I just think that you have soldiers and generals in your hands, so you shouldn’t be so passive."

Tang Yi smiled heartily and sighed: "Mr. Fushan said it well. I am justified. I am eager to achieve it. I don't want to waste this winter. Now it seems that people are bullied by others and horses are riding by others. It is impossible not to draw the sword. Mr. Fushan. I will give you two hundred soldiers to transport supplies from all over the place to Quanzhou. As for Mr. Li, take my warrant to visit scholars in Quanzhou and tell them who dares to disobey the recruitment. Don't think about passing the palace trial level!"

Tang Yi, who had been soft for so long, finally showed his courage. He Xinyin and Li Zhi were ecstatic, nodded vigorously, and went on to do their jobs in a hurry.

Seeing these two people leaving, Tang Yi's anxious expression disappeared. He turned around, hummed a small song, ran to the back house, and from a distance, he smelled a seductive fragrance.

He couldn't wait to run into the hall and walked in and saw a huge cage filled with small steamed dumplings, steaming hot and fragrant. Tang Yi didn't bother to take a hot hand, grabbed a dumpling, dipped it in some balsamic vinegar, and threw it into his mouth. The strong dough, the fragrant filling, and the delicious food were about to cry.

Just as I was about to grab the second one, a pair of chopsticks hit his hand.

Wang Yueying was carrying a tray with a few cold side dishes on it, and was walking over from the kitchen. She glared at Tang Yi fiercely, "It's all the masters. A gentleman is not serious, but he will not be powerful. If others see it, who will listen to you?"

Tang Yi smiled, "That's wrong. Look, the monk Tang who came to the scriptures is so cute and cute. Song Jiang from Liangshanbo wants to surrender every day. Even the big-eared thieves in the Three Kingdoms are all false benevolence and righteousness. These three have ordered their younger brothers. None of them rely on their prestige to command the world. However, Xiang Yu's majesty is so powerful. What's the result? He committed suicide in Wujiang. This is too much, and it is easy to break even if he is strong."

As he said, Tang Yi grabbed two more dumplings and threw them into his mouth, "It's delicious, so delicious. When did you have such a good craft, wife?"

Wang Yueying really wanted to give Tang Yi a big shot, "I am worthy of being the top scholar. I admire the truth that everything is said one by one. But outsiders don't say that."

Tang Yi held Wang Yueying's hand and the two sat side by side. Tang Yi ate the dumplings and asked in a vague way: "What have you said?"

"What else can I say? The streets are full of scolding the prefect!" Wang Yueying's face turned pale and still was still angry when she thought of this.

Today, she took her maid Zhuer to the street to buy some seafood and reward Tang Yi. However, she knew that the shops on the street were closed. When they arrived at the market, there were 70% fewer vegetables. The boat of fish that had just been transported was wiped out by the people. Wang Yueying couldn't rush up and compete with the people. As a result, she bought some vegetables and barely bought some dried mushrooms.

When she returned to the prefect's office, she was stunned. What can this little thing do?

Fortunately, Shen Meijun is also there. After seeing it, they used their skills to make dumplings with mixed stuffing and seasoned with boiled soup to make such delicious dumplings.

Tang Yi was happy to eat, and Wang Yueying was happy, but when she thought of the people scolding Tang Yi, she felt extremely painful, as if she was cut by a knife.

In her heart, her husband is perfect and omnipotent. He should support everyone everywhere he goes, and no matter what, he should not be scolded!

The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and tears couldn't help but flow out.

Tang Yi looked at her crying, and couldn't help but stretch out his arms and hugged her shoulders emotionally.

"Silly girl, who doesn't talk about others behind the scenes, and who doesn't talk about others behind the scenes. Even Master Yan and Master Xu are like this, let alone me, a small prefect."

"No, it's not possible!" Wang Yueying said stubbornly: "You are the best. What you do is for the people and for the world. It's wrong for them to scold you!"

Tang Yi couldn't help but smile and said, "What a good wife. You don't have to speak up for me. You can decide the winner in a few days, so you don't have to worry."

"Really?" Wang Yueying asked in surprise. She was smart and walked around the street and saw many problems. So many shops were closed. I heard that there were no one in the yamen. She knew how difficult her husband was.

"Master, you don't need to comfort me."

Tang Yi couldn't help but glared at his eyes and shouted: "Young girl dares to doubt your husband's ability, it's really a hit!" Tang Yi raised his slap, scaring Wang Yueying to lose her look and pouted, "Please be generous and spare me!"

Looking at her shy little look, Tang Yi felt loving and pecked her on the forehead gently.

"I didn't want to tell you. Since you are so worried, I can only say it." Tang Yi smiled and said, "Actually, I'm prepared..."

"Don't!"

Wang Yueying suddenly stretched out his jade hand and blocked Tang Yi's mouth.

"Master, I believe in you. The secret of heaven cannot be revealed. Don't ruin your major because of me." As he said that, Wang Yueying pointed to the wall, Tang Yi nodded with relief and sighed, "What a sensible girl."

The two of them had a sweet meal of dumplings. Tang Yi went to the back garden and walked around two times, then went to the small study in the east yard of the government office. As soon as he walked in, Yang Wenyu was already waiting here.

"Master Fuzun."

Tang Yi nodded, "Sit down. How is the matter doing?"

"Your Majesty, the young man has already gone to Qingyun Temple, met Nun Tan Fang, and also met the representatives of the seven surnames. The young man told them that opening the sea is imperative. This is the limit of the adults. If they really want to tear apart, they might as well fight."

Tang Yi asked with a calm face: "How do they answer?"

"They said, it's not impossible to open the sea, unless..."

"Unless what?"

"Unless you hand over the Maritime Department to them!"

Tang Yi slapped the table and said angrily: "Absurd, as a Maritime Manager, do you still want me to obey their orders?"

"No, no, no," Yang Wenyu said quickly: "What do they mean is the adult or the promotion, but they will arrange the staff below to handle the tax they should collect, and they will deal with it."

"Hmph, I'm just cutting off my official, it's such a big ambition!" Tang Yi's anger was even more powerful. Yang Wenyu hurriedly said: "Sir, the young man are also fighting with them. They have also agreed to several conditions, such as the tax bank of the Maritime Bureau can be paid in advance, and they will settle the trade routes on the sea, and they also promise to respect the adults every year..."

Tang Yi smiled coldly: "How much money?"

"Five, 500,000 taels!"

"Wow, what a big deal! I am worth so much money?" Tang Yi roared sternly, scaring Yang Wenyu so much that he hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Sir, they are really too bullying. Otherwise, they can order all their troops immediately and copy Qingyun'an."

Even someone as soft as Yang Wenyu can't bear it anymore, Tang Yi's anger can be imagined.

He walked around silently, thinking to himself, what is the difference between this and the fragrance-smelling in Tianjin, and he was the lion who spoke loudly and forced himself to bow his head.

Everyone knows that the benefits of opening a sea are huge, and it is not just as simple as that little tax and silver.

Maritime is a portal. Whoever holds Maritime in his hands will have unparalleled power. Not to mention visible taxation, finance, logistics and other things, there is more room for manipulation.

Take tea as an example. Due to dietary reasons, tea is their necessity, but do Westerners understand tea?

I don't understand at all, otherwise I wouldn't have added sugar or milk to it, making it messy.

For Westerners, there is no difference between Longjing and Tieguanyin, but it is not possible to put it in the Ming Dynasty. If the Maritime Company mainly promotes Tieguanyin, those who plant Longjing will be damaged, and vice versa. If the Maritime Company is in the hands of the seven major surnames, they can use their power to eat Longjing tea merchants and then go to Tieguanyin tea merchants to make a lot of money from both ends.

In fact, they are familiar with this kind of thing. In recent years, they have monopolized the maritime trade routes and controlled the smuggling channels. It is by this method that they have bitten the major families in the southeast. It is precisely because of this that the major families are very enthusiastic about opening the sea, in order to get rid of their bone-knocking and marrow-sucking exploitation.

However, if the Maritime Bureau is handed over to them, wouldn’t it be like giving them a legal way to exploit, and paying a little tax is nothing, they can get it back ten or a hundred times from other places.

No one can see more clearly than Tang Yi, but these people have grasped one of Tang Yi's fatal weaknesses, which is that they are eager to succeed. They can fight a business war, but they can also use thunderbolt measures. At worst, they will seal Qingyun's house and arrest everyone. But what can they do?

It makes a mess, so don't think about doing this year's business. Then these people will spend a year to slowly pour dirty water and slowly slander Tang Yi. The whole talk can make money and destroy bones. Zhu Wan fell back then. So in their opinion, even if Tang Yi knew that it was a glass of poisonous wine to hand over the Maritime Warehouse to them, he had to drink poison to quench his thirst.

Tang Yi's situation at this time was very similar to Lu Bing at the beginning. The only difference was that Lu Bing could still count on Tang Yi, but what should Tang Yi do? Is there any way he can break the deadlock? (To be continued.)
