Number of romantic figures

Chapter 2403 Gui character curly branches and vines entangled, cutting the grass and removing the roots

Wang Wenyan's heart trembled, and he subconsciously said: "My lord, if we want to eradicate the economic foundation, the implications may be very large, and it will bring impact and influence to many industries and fields."

"Hehe, bone scraping to heal wounds, labor pains are inevitable, and the imperial court is also mentally prepared for this." Feng Ziying's mouth curled slightly, her tone became more stern, "Besides, classical Chinese, you should understand the current difficulties of the imperial court. In the long run, we must achieve the best of both worlds, so we will not make any big moves against Jiangnan as a whole, but for these powerful families who are too popular and have gone in the wrong direction, we can only apologize and say that they are out of luck.”

Wang Wenyan heaved a sigh of relief, there were priorities, and now that the imperial court urgently needed cash, the four families should be a suitable group for cutting.

Especially the Zhen family, Taihe Yinzhuang, and the largest private salt general contractor in Jiangnan in the past 20 years. If you don't want to move, who will move?

Even the king of heaven and I can't keep you.

Seeing that Wang Wenyan seemed to understand the mystery, Feng Ziying smiled and said: "Wen Yan, you don't have to worry about those people. Snakes have their own ways, and rats have their own ways. They don't lack connections, and they will find some ways anyway." Yes, the imperial court has set the general direction, and we will operate in detail. As for someone coming to the door, we can also handle it as appropriate. The discretion is in our hands. What are you worried about? As long as you complete the tasks assigned by the imperial court, strategic means, the imperial court Not too fussy."

"Well, then let's start with the Zhen family?" Wang Wenyan nodded deeply. For this reason, he also used the original various intelligence networks and collected a large number of intelligence clues through various channels.

"In addition to Taihe Yinzhuang, the Zhen family's private salt channels involve a wide range of people, and this is also competing with the court for profit. The Ministry of Households has long wanted to do it. This time it must be completely eradicated. Classical Chinese, tell me The distribution channel of the Zhen family's private salt." Feng Ziying pursed her lips, and her tone became more gentle. Dealing with the Zhen family needs to peel off its cocoons, and peel off several pillars of it layer by layer.

Salt class has always been the most important source of income for the imperial court, and private salt directly used salt class money, which is equivalent to digging the lifeline of the imperial court.

If it is a private salt dealer from a small family, it will be fine, but a general contractor like the Zhen family is simply the enemy of the imperial court, and he must be eliminated as soon as possible.

"Jiangnan has always been the hardest-hit area for private salt. Among them, Jinling, Ningguo, Guangdezhou, Changzhou, Huzhou, and Zhenjiang are all the spheres of influence of Zhen's private salt. Intervening in the mediation, his people in Huzhou basically escaped without much impact, so not only Huzhou, but even Jiaxing was captured by him afterwards,..."

Wang Wenyan has a deep understanding of the situation of private salt. After all, he was transferred from the Huaihe River and the Huaihe River to the Siyamen. Serve.

"The Zhen family basically has a family in each prefecture. He is very smart and basically does not choose the most powerful wealthy families in each prefecture, but chooses some second-rate wealthy families that are slightly inferior. The profitable private salt business occupies a dominant position and earns the most lucrative income,..."

Feng Ziying smiled and continued Wang Wenyan's words: "So like the Zhen family's in-laws, the Tang family in Songjiang and the Ding family in Huizhou, they are not involved in the private salt business?"

"Yes." Wang Wenyan replied.

"It's kind of interesting." Feng Ziying laughed, "The Zhen family's private salt channels cover several important prefectures, which means that each prefecture has one or two local tycoons as partners. Over the years, these tycoons have made a lot of money. It's full, of course the Zhen family earns more, but at the beginning the Zhen family had to contribute a part to Prince Yizhong, but even so, the fact that the Zhen family can become the head of the new four is enough to explain a lot of problems."

"My lord, who knows how big the salt profit is?" Wang Wenyan rubbed his hands, "It's enough to make any family crazy, so this is also expected. The Tan family of Ningguo Mansion, the Chen family of Guangde Prefecture The Gu family in Changzhou, the Xu family in Huzhou, and the Lian family in Zhenjiang all have quite a lot of influence in the local area, and they can be used to mobilize the whole body. Before moving, the adults need to plan carefully."

"Well, I also expected this. What about Taihe Yinzhuang?" Feng Ziying asked another key point.

Taihe Yinzhuang can be regarded as one of the top four in Jiangnan's financial industry.

A supernatural refers to Haitong Bank, the top four, Wansheng, Xingda, Taihe, and Jiangnan Four Banks, basically considered the top of the entire Jiangnan financial industry.

In addition to Haitong, these companies are oriented to the entire Zhou Dynasty. Jiangnan only has semicolons in the core prefectures of Jinling, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Yangzhou, and Quanzhou. The others are deeply involved in Jiangnan. The more developed prefectures have semicolons.

"The second largest shareholder of Taihe Yinzhuang is the Tang family of Songjiang. In addition, the Ding family of Huizhou and the Yu family of Huai'an Shanyang are tied for the third largest shareholder. The Yu family, Mr. Yu Chengxian, should know that the former Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate Youqian Capital Yushi is now He is the censor who inspects salt in the Lianghuai River, and Ding Deju of the Ding family is now the chief envoy of Jiangxi Province, the right counselor."

Wang Wenyan, who has worked hard, is like a treasure.

"Oh, Shanyang Yu's family, Yu Chengxian?" Feng Ziying was slightly moved, but the appearance of the Yu family surprised him a little. Yu Chengxian was the same year as Huang Ruliang, Shangshu of the Ministry of household affairs, and also a close political friend. Considering the Yu family, and the reputation of the Yu family in Shanyang is not bad, then the treatment of Taihe Yinzhuang must be considered together with the Yu family.

"Yes, Yu Chengxian, his brother Yu Chengguang is now the prefect of Chongqing Prefecture in Sichuan." Wang Wenyan looked at the information in his hand, "The Yu family has two Jinshi, Yu Chengguang was a Jinshi in the 30th year of Yuanxi, and Yu Chengxian was a Jinshi in the 33rd year of Yuanxi. "

"Hehe, this is not an ordinary powerful family, but a scholarly family." Feng Ziying also knows that it is difficult to distinguish between pure powerful and scholars, and the combination of the two is often the strongest.

"Your Excellency, you can say that. The grandfather of the Yu brothers was born in Juren, but in the father's generation, only his uncle passed the examination as a scholar, and his family was in decline. My younger brother Yu Chengyuan is also from Juren, and is now the magistrate of Lechang County, Shaozhou Prefecture, Guangdong Province."

Juren born in the south of the Yangtze River cannot be a chief official like a county magistrate. They all have to be born as a Jinshi. It is also difficult in Shandong, Beizhi, and Shanxi, but it is very simple in Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and Shaanxi. question.

"Then this family is really not simple, two Jinshi, one move..." Feng Ziying nodded to indicate that she knew it, and she was also thinking about how to weigh and integrate the interests of all parties when dealing with Taihe Yinzhuang in the future .

"The other ones are the Tang family and the Ding family. The Tang family does not have any powerful support in the official sense. Only one offspring of the Tang family passed the examination and is currently serving as a general judge in Shanxi. But the other in-law of the Tang family is the Dong family. ..." Wang Wenyan paused.

"Huating Dong's family?" Feng Ziying felt a headache again. The Huating Dong's family was Dong Qichang's family, and the Dong and Lu families had always been in the same spirit. Both prospered and the other suffered. Huating Lu's family was not easy.

"Dong Qichang's second son, Dong Zuchang, married the first daughter of the Tang family." Wang Wen said concisely, and he also knew that this situation must have caused Feng Ziying a headache.

Songjiang Huating has always been a place where talents come forth in large numbers. Among them, the Lu family is the head, Lu Shusheng and Lu Yanzhang and his son, plus Yuan Keli, who studied in the Lu family and is now the governor of Shanxi, and Zhang, who is succeeding him as the governor of Shaanxi in Shaanxi. Nai, together with the confidants of Gao Panlong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Xia Jiayu, a member of the Department of Anthology, and Dong Qichang, are the backbone of the Huating Township Party.

Both Yuan Keli and Lu Yanzhang studied under Dong Qichang. With this relationship, the status of the Dong family is naturally not easy.

"What is Dong Zuchang's status now?" Feng Ziying asked again.

"Dong Zuchang is just a scholar now. He is at home, but his reputation is not good, and he has a reaction of bullying men and women in the village." Wang Wenyan introduced.

Feng Ziying nodded and did not make a sound. Historically, the evaluation of Dong Qichang, a master in the painting circle, has been widely divided. Naturally, there is no objection to his painting skills, but there are many criticisms of his personal style, and his family members are also in the village. It is quite criticized, and it seems that this era has not changed much.

But the Dong family and the Lu family have a very close relationship, and Dong Qichang is the teacher of Yuan Keli and Lu Yanzhang, and the Lu family has an inseparable relationship with Zhang Nai and Xia Jiayu, so this involvement almost covers the entire Songjiang. group of people.

However, Feng Ziying did not intend to change her mind. The Zhen family had to be uprooted, and so was the Tang family.

Although the Tang family was not born as a scholar, it is the leader of the local tyrants in Songjiang, and has colluded with the Jinshan Guard for many years in smuggling. It is even said that it has contacts with Japanese pirates. The Forbidden Captain and even the Department of Shipping and Shipping of the Ministry of Commerce responded that this cancer must be eradicated.

"Well, I see, there is no need to mention the matter of the Tang family, I have my own discretion." Feng Ziying thought for a while and then put aside the situation of the Tang family, "Let's talk about the Ding family in Huizhou, there is no need to say more about the Ding family in Yangzhou If you are unkind to the rich, and never give up on evil, you will have died a long time ago."

"Okay, the Ding family in Huizhou made a fortune in She County..." Feng Ziying laughed as soon as Wang Wenyan said that, "Wenyan, this is a hard-core fellow with you. When a fellow meets a fellow, don't cry."

Hearing Feng Ziying's joke, Wang Wenyan also laughed, "I'm afraid I won't burst into tears, but I'm afraid their family will burst into tears."

"Go ahead." Feng Ziying signaled.

"The Ding family was originally just an ordinary landlord in She County, but the daughter of the previous generation married the Tongzhi of Huizhou Prefecture as his wife, and began to make a fortune. One of them went to Yangzhou to become the salt merchant Ding's family. The main branch is in Huizhou. The local area quickly became the largest landlord in She County and Qimen, and also the largest tea merchant,..."
