Chapter 472 Hangzhou Prefect

A autumn rain and a cold, Tang Yi received a cotton robe with Sichuan silk. When he opened it, he almost burst into laughter. The dry branches on the cuffs on the collar were like willow branches, brushing them together, drooping their heads, without any energy. There were mandarin ducks flying with wings in front and behind, but no matter how they looked, they looked like big fat ducks.

This is still acceptable. When I put it on my body, I noticed that one sleeve was long and the other was short.

Tang Yi cried, "Wife, this is a preparation for me to have a cerebral thrombosis!"

The only thing that deserves praise for this robe is that it is thick enough and warm enough. It is draped on it, as if you can see Wang Yueying frowning and staring under the lamp, and trying her best to think.

I really miss my little girl a little. I think it’s been several months since Hangzhou. People say that a small separation is better than a newlywed, so it’s time to bring my wife to experience the feeling of a newlywed.

In the past, it was not convenient for Tang Yi to take care of his family. Just yesterday, the court finally issued an order. Because of his contribution to surrendering Xu Hai, Tang Yi was appointed as the prefect of Hangzhou.

Pay attention!

As a top talisman in Hangzhou, the prefect is a high-level magistrate, which means that Tang Yi also joined the ranks of red-robed officials.

However, it was not easy to get this big red robe. When Jiajing sent an imperial edict to Tang Yi, he also issued a military order.

Jiajing asked Jiajing to increase the tax on the Maritime Contract to 2 million taels in the 36th year of Jiajing, and to 4 million taels next year. After completing the task, it was not said that if you were to put it in a red robe, if you could not complete the task, go home to coax the child.

Jiajing's tone was so firm that he didn't give Tang Yi a room to maneuver. If he wanted to save his future, he had no choice but to accept the unequal treaty.

Tang Yi couldn't understand why Jiajing suddenly got fucked, so he wanted money and was desperate?

After inquiring, I finally figured out the situation. It turned out that the three halls of Fengtian, Huagai and Jinzhen had just been built on fire again and burned to ruins.

Zhejiang and Shandong suffered a disaster this year, and the court had to exempt the taxes from the two provinces. Shandong is not only responsible for one-tenth of the world's tax burden, but also had two million stones of grain and more than one hundred thousand army expenses. Zhejiang suffered a disaster. Not only did the taxes be lost, but it also had to pay back the taxes to transport grain and military supplies from various provinces to fill the gaps, inside and out. The court's annual income was reduced by more than one million taels.

A few days ago, Tang Yi saw the newspaper in the residence, which read that Jiajing issued an order, requiring the coastal provinces to offer pearls.

Needless to ask, it must be the idea that those Taoists came up with, and cultivation is a big deal of burning money.

If you spend too much, you will have less money every year, and Jiajing is very short of money.

After thinking about it, the land tax could not be increased and the commercial tax could not be collected. Jiajing once sent a mining supervisor to Henan, hoping to open more mines to make up for the deficit, but the result was good. After the mining supervisor went down, the local people fought back and fled back to the capital in shame.

Jiajing was almost angry to death, but even though he was extremely strong, he was helpless when facing the local gentry group. After thinking about it, there was only one place, that is, the Maritime Corporation could make money.

When he thought of the Maritime Warehouse, Jiajing thought more and more about Tang Yi's good.

Since the successful opening of the sea at the beginning of the year, Tang Yi has donated 200,000 taels of tax silver in the first time, in addition to the first donation of one million taels.

Jiajing calculated by his fingers that Quanzhou could get more than one million taels a year. If Ningbo was handed over to Tang Yi, wouldn’t it be more than two million taels!

Jiajing was also confused. The Maritime Warehouse Department was not farming, but adding a Maritime Warehouse Department might not double its income. Otherwise, if all coastal cities were established, wouldn’t the Ming Dynasty have endless money?

The truth here does not make sense to Jiajing. He only asks for one thing. As for trouble, that is the following thing. He is so uninhibited by the world.

To be honest, Tang Yi really wanted to refuse, but when he saw the red official uniform, he felt his blood boiling, and a real man should not be powerless for a day!

Although he has entered the ranks of senior bureaucrats at a young age, it is a bit eye-catching, but it is eye-catching. I can't feel wronged by others' impressions.

Besides, as both the prefect, Hangzhou prefect is so attractive than Ningbo and Quanzhou.

Hangzhou is the starting point of the Grand Canal. Its economy is prosperous, and its population is one million, which is even more than Suzhou. If Hangzhou can be managed well, it will be fine if it deals with the provinces in the mainland and can also be used as a base camp in the future. In any case, we must not give up the God-given opportunity.

After thinking about it, the big gift package given by Jiajing had to swallow no matter what. However, Tang Yi was not a good-for-nothing lamp, so he wrote a ten thousand words to Jiajing.

It is proposed that if he wants to complete the task, he must give him full autonomy. Not only Hangzhou, Ningbo, even Quanzhou, Guangzhou, but also Songjiang, all of them must be changed. The Maritime Bureau will unify the tax rate, regulate and command.

In addition, Tang Yi also asked Jiajing for the appointment and removal of officials below the seventh rank, and set up new institutions at any time and hired more clerks. He also required the Maritime Bureau to operate completely independently and not be controlled by the governor and the governor...

There were a lot of things, and there were no more than ten conditions. Tang Yi did not expect Jiajing to pass it completely. He was asking for a lot of money to pay it back.

As long as he could hand over Hangzhou City completely to him, Tang Yi would be satisfied.

His Wanyan Book has not been approved by Jiajing, but one thing is clear. Tang Yi is already the red robe official in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and the provincial capital prefect at the age of the past. He also broke the fastest record of promotion speed maintained by his father.

It jumped up so quickly that countless people envied, jealous and hated. Even if Wenqu star came to earth, there was no such thing as playing!

In order to avoid the fierce gazes of everyone, Tang Yi chose to be low-key, low-key, and low-key. In any large-scale event, you can push it if you can, and you can hide if you can. When the limelight is in the past, everyone will get used to it and it will not be too late to emerge again.

Just because of his low-keyness, I missed a good show...

On October 15th, Xu Hai officially surrendered to the Ming Dynasty. On that day, Xu Hai led tens of thousands of subordinates, brightly lit armor, well-equipped, and rushed to the city of Hangzhou with a sword.

Xu Hai even shouted loudly: "I am Xu Mingshan, come and please come and go down, and open the city gate quickly!"

Judging from his posture, he was not asking for surrender. He wanted to attack the city and forced the civil and military officials in the city to open the city gate. He was arrogant and arrogant, and he was extremely arrogant.

In sharp contrast to him, the civil and military officials in the city were so scared that they changed their faces and color, especially the inspector Wang Bengu, who was even more unbearable. He heard that Xu Hai brought his troops to come and learned from the last lesson. Wang Bengu immediately ordered the city gate to close. He went to the city to inspect, as if he was facing a great enemy.

Soon, Hu Zongxian also arrived. He looked down at the city and frowned. Xu Hai's posture was not a surrender, but it was clearly a demonstration to the civil and military officials in Hangzhou. He was such a stubborn bandit. Hu Zongxian was furious. He knew in his heart that surrendering Xu Hai was to report to the court. His Majesty issued an order. If he failed, he would be a person from Jiajing.

Hu Zongxian smiled coldly, "Come here, follow me to leave the city."

Wang Bengu hurriedly stopped him, "Mr. Hu, Xu Fei is extremely vicious, very abominable. As the commander of the Southeast, how can you easily take risks? If there is a mistake, who can be responsible?"

Wang Bengu was not concerned about Hu Zongxian, but was worried about taking the charge of losing the Governor. Hu Zongxian laughed, "Please rest assured, Lord Wang, everything is in the control of my official."

With only two followers, Hu Zongxian opened the city gate and went outside, looking calmly, and the thousands of troops in front of him were like grass.

Xu Hai felt an unprecedented power. Before that, he had never been afraid of anyone, including Wang Zhi, but at this moment, in front of this man, he completely surrendered. He stood up, bent his knees involuntarily, saluting respectfully to this opponent who had been incompatible with him. He admitted defeat and lost with confidence.

The next second, Hu Zongxian made a move that was enough to make everyone fall off. He stretched out his hand and pressed it on Xu Hai's scalp.

What's even more excessive is that I keep patting and stroking it, and said while filming:

"You have led the Japanese pirates to invade and have caused harm to the country for many years. Since you surrender today, you should be at peace in the future and do not do evil again."

He was the leader of the Japanese pirates who had been around for more than ten years. He was not a cat or a dog. If you treat him like this, aren’t you afraid that he will bite you back?

But what is unexpected is that Xu Hai was so grateful that he cried bitterly: "The crimes committed by the people are so numerous that they cannot be written. Now that he submits to the court, he should be wholehearted and have no other intentions. The words of the adults are engraved in their hearts and will never be forgotten."

...

Amid everyone's amazement, Hu Zongxian successfully subdued Xu Hai. At that moment, he was the focus of everyone's attention. If there were cameras in the Ming Dynasty, Hu Zongxian would definitely be blinded by the spotlight.

"It's so brave, it's so brave!"

Xu Wei, who ran back to Shaoxing a few days ago, rushed to Hangzhou, witnessed the scene with his own eyes, ran to Tang Yi, and said with his hands and feet.

"Brother Wen, people say that the Gentleman Village is a hero's tomb. I think the family is similar. Your level has dropped too quickly. Xu Hai is clearly at the end of his journey. The more he treats him, the more he feels he is a character and the more unwilling he is. On the contrary, if you don't take him seriously, slander him, and step on him, he will feel that you are sincere."

Xu Wei opened his mouth wide, hesitated for a while, then patted his head and said, "Oh, my head is really useless!" Xu Wei walked around anxiously on the ground, approached Tang Yi, and said with a big face with a saliva, "Xinzhi, my brother decided to write another letter to the Ministry of Personnel and ask for another three months off. Brother wants to stay by your side, restore his skills, and protect your safety by the way. How about it?"

"Not very good!"

Tang Yi glanced at Xu Wei's big belly, which had nowhere to be placed. With this body, it's not certain who can protect whoever is!

"Brother Wen, don't you just want to eat and drink for free?"'

Xu Wei stubbed his neck and threw it into pieces and said, "It's just eating you, what if it doesn't work?"

"Okay, of course!" Tang Yi suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Wen, now I will hire you as the Director of Academic Affairs as the governor of Hangzhou and also as the Maritime Shipin Shiju. This is your letter of appointment!"

Tang Yi said, stuffing a document into Xu Wei's arms. Xu Wei's face turned gloomy and said, "You fill in the head first."

"Look at whom I'm writing?"
