Chapter Four Hundred and Twentieth Seven Betrayal
The run is not over yet.
The common people in the capital, whoever had anything to do with the Zhu Family Qianzhuang, were all panicked.
"The Zhu family is going to collapse."
This is everyone's thoughts and concerns
"I have fifty taels of Zhu's Qianzhuang Tong-to-exchange bank notes, and I sell them for forty taels, do you want them?"
"don't want."
As night fell, countless people holding the Zhujia Qianzhuang banknotes in their hands were all looking for a way out.
When everyone's attention was focused on Zhujia Qianzhuang, a businessman surnamed Li came to Zhujia's store to pick up goods.
He supplies the Zhu family all year round, and also participates in the Zhu family's sea trade.
Now that the money is going to be wasted, it is a little that can be recovered.
"Quick, quick, get all these goods away."
"I can't pull the goods. These are the goods of our Zhu family."
"Fuck you motherfucker, these are the goods of our Li family business."
"Our Zhu family will settle the bill."
"Close a fart, and I expect you to settle the bill. It's better to expect me to be quicker. Move them all out, and leave nothing behind."
In a certain house in the capital, the guy hurriedly came to the owner's house, "Master Qi, Master Li is taking someone to the Zhu family's shop to move goods."
"Is this true?"
"Exactly. The little one saw it with his own eyes."
A middle-aged man known as a master, with a solemn expression.
Today, he and the others went to the Zhu family in Cheng'enbo's house to ask for an explanation.
Looking back at Cheng Enbo's attitude, it seems that the Zhu family is out of money.
The middle-aged man made a decisive decision, "Assemble the staff and go to Zhu's shop to move the goods overnight. All our goods, whether there is a checkout or not, will be moved away, and none will be kept."
"Little understands."
This night, many merchants stayed up all night, they were all doing one thing, they were organizing people to move the goods.
The shop under the name of Zhu family,
One family was considered one family, and one family after another was evacuated.
The shops that used to be full of goods in the warehouse have become empty in the blink of an eye.
The guy from the Zhu family wanted to stop it, but was unable to stop it.
By dawn, the shops under the Zhu family's name had already been emptied.
Xu Xianyi woke up early in the morning, and the people below reported that they were like ants moving house last night, one after another.
Fortunately, the capital has recently been peaceful and there is no martial law. Otherwise, these merchants would never want to come out for activities in the middle of the night.
Xu Xianzhi spat out the mouthwash, "As long as you don't beat, smash, and loot, don't worry about them."
"The shops under the Zhu family's name are about to be emptied."
Xu Xianzhi smiled and said, "Evacuate it, it's none of our business. Remember, we embroidered clothing guards only care about the security of the capital, not their Zhu family's thugs, and have no obligation to guard the goods for their Zhu family."
"Understandable."
"Go! Tell the little ones to cheer up. Today, the Zhujia Qianzhuang has to run on money."
When the day dawned and the market became lively, people found that the Zhujia shops that opened early in the past seemed to be negotiated today, and all the doors were closed.
I don't know who shouted, "The goods in Zhu's shop have been emptied!"
boom!
This roar sounded like a signal for the explosion of gunpowder.
People who had a little confidence in the Zhu family all rushed to the gate of the Zhu family's bank, slapped the gate, and clamored for cash.
Zhujia Qianzhuang General Tie held the door, but didn't move.
The sun is drying out, and the bank hasn't opened the door yet.
Obviously, Zhujia Qianzhuang decided to pretend to be dead to survive, and would not open the door without saying anything.
"The Zhu family is too deceiving. Let's go to the Earl's House to discuss."
"Yes, go to the Earl's Palace to discuss. Even if you are an honorable person, you can't bully the good people and cut off our life."
"Not only do we have to go to the Earl's Mansion to seek explanations, but also to report to the officials. The Zhu family cheated the common people of their money and forced them to die, so I asked the imperial court to take care of it?"
"Reporter, reporter."
Compared with ordinary people in other places, the most important feature of the people in the capital is that they are knowledgeable and they are not so afraid of officials.
Master Sanpin?
Pooh!
It's a fart in the capital boundary.
I have also seen a lot of royal family members.
An earl's mansion, forcing people to the point of death, still fucks his mother.
All the way to the Earl's Mansion, all the way to the official mansion.
There are more and more people in these two teams.
Some have vital interests, and they are counting on the Zhu family to exchange the stub money in everyone's hands under pressure.
Some are purely for fun.
There are also a small number of people, who belong to the rhythm of fishing in troubled waters, and want to make things worse.
It is best to alarm the emperor and let the emperor take action to clean up the Zhu family.
The Zhu family has been the richest man in the capital for so many years, and many people have offended them.
Now that the Zhu family is out of luck, I don't know how many people are waiting for the opportunity to get down and bite a piece of meat from the Zhu family.
The partners of the Zhu family and relatives and friends of the Zhu family are always watching the movements outside.
Knowing that the small people in the capital had formed a group to report to the official, and formed a group to attack the Earl's Mansion, everyone had an idea: the Zhu family is finished!
What are you still doing, and continue to evacuate Zhu's shops and all its businesses.
Whether it's your own goods or not, move them away first.
For a time, the Zhu family was simply betrayed.
Hundreds of thousands of people stormed the Earl's Palace.
They are not the same as the refugees last time.
The refugees who attacked Earl's Palace last time were organized, disciplined and strategic. It was basically just intimidation, and did not cause substantial harm to the Zhu family.
But this time is different.
These little people are unorganized and undisciplined, and they just want to grab profits.
They are cranky and impulsive.
The damage they caused was far greater than the organized riots.
They work together to climb over the wall, climb the window and climb the window...
They used various means to attack the Earl's Palace.
They overturned the guards at the Earl's Mansion and opened the door to welcome everyone.
Countless people rushed into the Earl's Palace, like locusts crossing the border.
Xu Xianzhi personally brought people there.
A look at the scene, I rely on!
This is serious.
"Disperse the crowd. Arrest all the rioters inside."
Hundreds of embroidered clothing guards were dispatched to disperse the crowd with sticks and guns, and closed the door to arrest people.
Fortunately, the embroidered clothing guards arrived in time, these mob only caused the property loss of the Zhu family, injured a few guard servants, and did not hurt the female family members of the inner courtyard.
Xu Xianzhi secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, thankful that he came in time.
MMP, the Zhu family must have committed Tai Sui this year.
Being attacked twice in a row, how much public anger was committed?
"My lord, everyone has been arrested, how to deal with it?"
Xu Xianzhi's face tensed, "Throw them all into the prison without punishment. Let's wait for what the palace says."
"Understandable. It's all escorted away."
Hundreds of people were tied up with ropes and taken to the Xiuyiwei prison for custody.
Xu Xianzhi straightened his collar and walked towards Chengen Bo Zhuci, who was standing under the eaves.
"Uncle, you are shocked."
Cheng Enbo Zhuci's face flushed, and the redness was obviously abnormal.
"Uncle, you have to take care of your health." Xu Xianzhi said with concern.
Cheng Enbo Zhuci coughed lightly, "This old man can't die yet."
Xu Xianzhi smiled and said, "Uncle is really good at joking. Today's matter is of great importance, and the lower official will report it to the palace truthfully. Your Majesty will probably summon Uncle. Uncle should prepare early."
"Why were you Xiuyiwei not there when those people rushed into the Earl's Palace? Why did you Xiuyiwei just come when those people rushed into the Earl's Palace? Mr. Xu, you really know how to seize the moment."
Xu Xianzhi said with a stern face, "Does the uncle suspect that Xiaguan deliberately indulged the small people to attack the earl's mansion?"
Cheng En Bo Zhuci snorted coldly, "Is it true that you know best in your heart."
Xu Xianzhi chuckled, "Uncle suspects Xiaguan, and he has nothing to say. But Uncle, your Zhujia Qianzhuang didn't even give a notice, and suddenly closed down, causing panic among the common people in the capital. Uncle quickly thought about the crime. How to bear it."
"you……"
"You what are you. Close the team and leave."
Xu Xianzhi's face was tensed, and he was extremely impatient, and walked away with the person.
Leaving a mess for the Zhu family.
The sons of Cheng Enbo came out, also standing under the eaves.
Everyone was terrified for a while.
"Father, we can't go on like this anymore."
"The seafood in Jiangnan hurry up."
"The Qianzhuang side must find a way to calm down as soon as possible."
"Uncle, it's not a big deal. All the goods in the shop were emptied by those partners."
"What? Why has such a big thing been reported until now?" Cheng Enbo Zhu Ci was shocked.
Without the goods, how would Zhu's shop experience, how to make money, and how to make money flow.
The steward was aggrieved, "I reported it once last night. At that time, the eldest master said that he would solve the matter."
Cheng En Bo Zhu Ci turned his head sharply and looked fiercely at his eldest son.
Mr. Zhu was very calm, "Last night when the steward reported this matter, it was already late, and my father was in critical condition, so no one disturbed him. It's been too much time today, and my son didn't come to report this matter in a hurry."
"The shop was evacuated. How could you hide such a big thing?"
"What if I don't hide it? Is there any way for my father to stop those merchants? They emptied the goods, and our Zhu family has a legitimate reason not to return the principal of sea trade."
"You, this is what you're thinking of?"
Mr. Zhu said confidently: "It's good to reduce some of the losses. The store goods are gone, but the store is still there, and the foundation of the Zhu family is still there. When this difficulty is overcome, one day our Zhu family will be able to regroup. ."
"You are ridiculous. Why don't you discuss with the old man about such a big thing?"
But Mr. Zhu said: "Does my father know how much money the partners have raised? Nearly two million taels. With so much money, I can't pay it back. If you give up the goods, so that they have no reason to ask for debts, our Zhu family can also do it. Take the opportunity to catch your breath."
Cheng Enbo Zhuci gritted his teeth, "Don't say any more."
"Father, this is the end of the matter, why don't you think about how to use the common people to attack the Earl's Mansion and seek some benefits for the Earl's Mansion."
"Do you think benefits are so easy to obtain? You are naive."
"Whether it's naive, you'll know after trying it."
The father and son of the Zhu family had different ideas and turned their faces directly.
...
On the other side, Xiaomin who complained went directly to Dali Temple.
Ask Dali Temple to give everyone justice.
Dali Temple received the paper, excited!
They like the big case of petitioning for the people's life, and they can also make achievements and fame.
Dali Temple took over this case.
And promised to give everyone an explanation.
Xiuyiwei and Dali Temple, both yamen are working hard. This matter was quickly placed on the emperor's desk.
Because Jiang Shuyi gave birth to a ghost child, during this time, the emperor's mood was extremely depressed and depressed, and he might explode at any time.
Seeing such a big mess in Uncle Cheng's Mansion, the emperor's backlog of anger could no longer be suppressed.
"Are you looking for death?"
This was the first sentence the emperor said, and all the people serving in the hall were frightened into silence.
"It's old after all!"
This is the second sentence of the emperor.
Chen Dachang's heart moved slightly, is the emperor ready to take action against Cheng Enbo?
But Cheng Enbo was old after all, maybe the emperor would not want Cheng Enbo's life because of his blood relationship.
The emperor threw the copy aside and said, "Send my will to strictly investigate the Zhu family's bank. I want to know how many banknotes the Zhu family put out? How many small families are involved?"
Chen Dachang bowed to take orders, "Old slave obeys the order."
He walked out of the hall, it was cloudy for many days, and it finally cleared up today.
A little Huangmen came to him, "Report to your father-in-law, Concubine Li De sent someone to contact Changshi Shen."
Chen Dachang laughed, "Concubine Li De can't wait to regain her favor?"
"Father-in-law, do you want to stop it?"
"Don't stop it. Without Jiang Shuyi, there must be someone close by your Majesty who knows his interests."
"But……"
Chen Dachang glanced at Xiao Huangmen's cheeks, Xiao Huangmen's heart skipped a beat, he was so scared that he just said "but" and swallowed the rest of the words.
"The little one understands, the little one listens to the father-in-law."
Chen Dachang snorted coldly.
Because of Jiang Shuyi, His Majesty thought of Concubine Li De again. At this time, stopping Concubine Li De from being favored is equivalent to opposing the emperor.
Is he stupid?
Unless there is a second Jiang Shuyi who can satisfy His Majesty.
However, with so many beauties in the palace, there is no one who can really replace Jiang Shuyi.
Pity!
Jiang Shuyi had the strength to compete with Concubine Li De, but her belly was not up to par. What's wrong, but a ghost child was born, which made His Majesty extremely disgusted.
...
Bai Zhong hurried back to the palace.
"Mrs. Qi, the Zhu family is secretly selling their property."
Gu Jiu let out a sigh of relief. After so long, the Zhu family finally reached the stage of selling the property.
"Is it the capital's industry?"
"It's a foreign industry."
Gu Jiu smiled, "It seems that the Zhu family still wants to preserve their strength. Add more firewood to force the Zhu family to sell the capital's property."
Bai Zhong took the lead.
After thinking for a while, he said again, "Madam, the Zhu Family Qianzhuang is probably out of money."
"No money, no money, don't worry about Zhu's bank."
"What does Madam mean, don't buy the Zhu Family Bank?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "Yes, we don't have to buy the Zhu Family Bank. The Zhu Family Bank without money is just an empty shell, and it's useless to buy it. Others such as grain stores, mines, farms, etc. are all bought. There are many stores in the Zhu family. , are located in the prime location of land and gold, and buying a shop alone is also a cost-effective transaction.”
"The little one understands, and the little one will take care of it."
Bai Zhong left.
Gu Jiu called Xu Yousi again, "Take my greeting card and give it to the Minister of the Ministry of Housing. Ask him, do you sell Chenliang in Jingcang?"
The Zhu family was unable to protect themselves and could not digest the old grain in the Beijing warehouse.
If the old grain is not in the warehouse, the new grain cannot enter the warehouse.
If the new food could not enter the Jingcang warehouse, the Ministry of Household was criticized and attacked by several other ministries and yamen.
But in the entire capital, there is no grain merchant that can eat hundreds of thousands of taels worth of grain in one go, except for the Zhu family.
It is estimated that the Ministry of Household will also have a headache for Chen Liang, who is full of warehouses.
Give food to the Ministry of War?
If the Ministry of War does not pay, why should it be given to the Ministry of War in vain?
Does the household's food really fall from the sky?
The Ministry of War has so much budget for a year, and food is already included in the budget. If you want extra food, buy it with money.
Unless there is a war, it is impossible for the Ministry of Household to give food to the Ministry of War for nothing.
Moreover, the annual income from the sale of surplus old grain is also a fixed input for the Ministry of Households.
Whether the officials of the Ministry of Household can receive their salaries on time, and whether they can live a life of oil and water in winter, all depend on the sale of old grain.
This part of the benefits, from the top and bottom of the household, can't be given away for nothing.
Just like the armory of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Personnel has the right to appoint officials from all over the world, the Ministry of Punishment has the right to punish life and death, the Ministry of Rites has the right to take imperial examinations, and the Ministry of Industry has the right to build everything. .
When the Son of Heaven comes, it is not easy.
Even if the emperor sitting on the throne today is a rare and authoritarian emperor in all dynasties, he will never let the six yamen give up their own land.
This is the power structure, as strong as the emperor, and it can only be recognized by pinching the nose.
The Son of Heaven would never easily move the private plots of the yamen, at most the people inside the yamen.
Xu Yousi came to the Ministry of Housing with Gu Jiu's letter of worship, and relying on Gu Yu, he successfully delivered the letter to the Minister of the Ministry of Housing.
The Minister of the Ministry of Commerce looked at the contents of the post of worship, and only felt a sore tooth.
"Is Mrs. Zhao planning to rip it off?"
"My lord is joking. My wife is devoted to the public, and takes the initiative to solve major problems for the Ministry of Households. But if Chen Liang in Jingcang has been solved, it will be regarded as a small child who has not been here today."
The Minister of the Chamber of Commerce snorted, "When was your wife born?"
"Come on, just a few days."
"When she gives birth, the old man will talk to her after confinement."
"Can you make it?"
"It's a big deal, let the people below the grain be slower."
