The number one scholar of the Song Dynasty

"Send people to Xujiazhuang and tell them that my life is dying, but because their fathers have contributed to the court, I will give them one last chance."

"Let Xu come to the camp to confess his guilt and apologize. Otherwise, I will send soldiers and horses on the east road of Jingdong to attack the imperial envoys. This is one of the ten evils of disrespect and the crime of punishing the nine clans."

Chapter 70 is really a villain

Xujiazhuang, the back flower hall.

With a bang, a fine Ru kiln porcelain cup was smashed to pieces, Xu Yuenu stood in front of the hall, silent like a cicada, and the other servants didn't even dare to show their heads.

Xu Jin was rarely furious at his only daughter, "You even dared to beat the imperial envoy, and even beat him to the point of death. Now it's all right, our Xu family will be destroyed in your hands."

Dou E is not allowed by heaven's injustice.

When Xu Yuenu, who was like a little princess in Xujiazhuang, had ever suffered such grievances, big teardrops hung on her long eyelashes, her pretty face was blood red, she bit her lips and said, "Daughter said it ten times!" Oh, I really didn't hit him, we didn't even go out."

"Shut up, you..." Xu Jin made a gesture to hit, raised his hand to think about it but finally couldn't bear it, put his hand down fiercely, and said: "This imperial envoy just came to Mizhou, and he is going to provoke our Xu family. Killing chickens to warn monkeys, knocking mountains and shaking tigers. He also knows that after subduing our Xu family, who would dare to fight against him in Mizhou. This time the imperial court actually wants to reopen the Shibo Department. It will be difficult for us to escape the commercial tax and continue to trade with the Japanese If there is no manor near the sea, the difficulty will be doubled."

"At a time like this, you should avoid him and not give him a chance. You are showing off your might in front of the village gate, thinking Dad doesn't know?"

Xu Yuenu was dissatisfied, but she hated and was anxious for causing such a big trouble for her family.

It's all the fault of that despicable imperial envoy

"Then what should we do, father, we can't really confess and apologize."

Xu Jin smiled wryly, and said, "What do you mean when you are an imperial envoy? Our Xu family seems to be powerful, but it's just in a corner of Mizhou. In the eyes of those lords in Bianliang, we are no different from ants."

Exhaling deeply the turbid air in his chest, Xu Jin said slowly: "Come here, prepare a few boxes of generous gifts, follow me to Mizhou Port, and meet this envoy Yang Qin."

-----

In the Long Live Camp, Yang Lin hung a white cloth around his neck, hung his arms, and said cursingly: "This thing hurts my neck, the dog made Xu Jin not come yet, so he is a bitch, help me take it off first .”

Lu Wang suppressed a smile and stepped forward, trying to help him open it, when a soldier outside came in and clasped his fists and said, "Tiju, Xu Jin, the master of the Xu family, begs to see him."

"Tie it on, tie it on, and call him in!"

A new barracks has not yet been built in the big camp, and a large tent is used, with windows raised around it.

Xu Jin picked up the curtain and entered, and saw that the tent was ventilated everywhere, and sitting on it was a handsome young man with a tender face. I squinted my eyes and looked at myself.

Surrounded by big men with plain knives in their arms, each of them has a solemn expression. This little imperial guard of honor really looks like a soldier.Xu Jin was careful, cupped his fists and said, "Xu Jin, a grassroots man, met the imperial envoy."

When he was looking at Yang Lin, Yang Lin was also scanning the Mizhou hero.This man is tall and tall, no less than his fourth uncle Lu Taixuan, with a bronze face, double eyebrows lying on the back, high nose and wide mouth, he is a high-spirited Shandong man.

Yang Lin raised his eyelids, and said lightly: "The Xu family is so majestic, and I, on behalf of the heaven patrol, have encountered such a catastrophe. It is a shame and a shame to say it. It is not a shame for me alone, but for your majesty. I am the shame of Song Dynasty."

Xu Jin understood his daughter a little bit now, and suppressed his anger and said against his will: "The little girl is young and ignorant, and she offended the imperial envoy. Our Xu family deserves death. I also hope that the imperial envoy will have a lot of adults and give our Xu family a chance. Sorry, the grassroots have prepared a small gift, and I hope the imperial envoy will accept it."

A few peasants in uniform came in with two boxes, but Yang Lin didn't even lift his eyes: "Take these two boxes of seafood, fish and shrimp, the local specialty brought by Master Xu, back to my bedroom."

When his subordinates lifted the box away, Yang Lin finally raised his head and snorted coldly: "Opportunity? Opportunities are only reserved for those who know how to advance and retreat, and who know the current affairs. Your surname is Xu, and your name is Jin. You have already made the advance, so how about retreat?"

"What does the imperial envoy mean?"

Yang Lin waved his hand, signaling the guards in the big tent to retreat, leaving only Lu Wang, Lu Qian, and the clerk next to him.

Xu Jin's heart moved, this guy has the advantage, what is he doing so mysteriously?

But now the Xu family has been pushed to a dead end, no matter what he wants to do, as long as there are variables, there will be opportunities.

Yang Lin got up with a smile, tore off the bandage around his neck and threw it away, and asked, "Let's open the skylight and tell the truth, no one should hide it, what do you think?"

Seeing that Yuenu was right, Xu Jin was indeed tricked by this gentle scum, but now he is not qualified to settle the case, so he said in a concentrated voice: "What orders does the imperial envoy have? Just say, if Xujiazhuang, a grass-roots man, can help, I will definitely help you." Dare not refuse."

Yang Lin nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Your purpose of occupying this place is clear to me. It's just to trade with Japanese and Fan people to avoid commercial taxes from the imperial court. You know more about the profits here than I do. I want a piece of the action now."

"How?" Xu Jin sighed, this kid is so naughty, it seems impossible not to give him some sweetness.

Yang Lin smiled and said to the clerk: "Remember, Xu Jin admitted to evading taxes and buying and selling goods privately."

"Mr. Yang Qin! What does this mean?"

Yang Lin said with a smile: "I have said it before. I won't hide it from you. This is just a piece of evidence to check and balance you. If our relationship is no longer as close as it is today, this is what I want to tell the emperor." Paper memorial."

"I'm a real villain, I've got a showdown." Yang Lin spread his hands.

Xu Jin was completely speechless, the imperial envoy seemed to have decided on his Xujiazhuang, but he was a scary dog, and he was so shameless that Xujiazhuang had no way to resist.

He insisted that his daughter hurt him, even Xujiazhuang's thousands of mouths couldn't tell.

In this world, officials and officials protect each other, not to mention that this guy is the confidant of Cai Jing, the powerful minister, and the favorite minister of the emperor Zhao Ji.

The situation was stronger than others, Xu Jin was completely defeated, not because of how powerful this hairless imperial envoy was, but because he had all the advantages, and the two sides were not at the same level.

No matter how strong the ground snake is, it can't hold down the real dragon.

"The imperial envoy wants my Xu family's manor, so I'll send someone to vacate it right away. As for the houses and worthless utensils inside, I will also give them away."

Yang Lin pinched his waist and laughed loudly. After laughing for a while, he said, "What's the use of those broken houses of yours? You don't know what I want, Xu Jin?"

"Please make it clear to the imperial envoy."

"I want your Xu family to be attached to my Longevity Camp from now on; I want to set up a porcelain kiln in Mizhou, collect cloth, pick tea leaves, and make paper. You continue to secretly sell them to me, and then build docks, build large ships, and ship them by sea. Make huge fortunes."

Xu Jin was dumbfounded when he heard this, Yang Lin half-raised his head, immersed in the imminent boundless wealth: "I have great ambitions, I have great ambitions, and I can't do without money. From now on, I will eat meat, and your Xu family will drink soup. Give it to me obediently." For smuggling, I will be your umbrella in the court, and I will buy you a way, so no one dares to talk too much."

Chapter 71 You stand back and let me come

Xu Jin walked out of the big tent in a daze, his mind was still buzzing.

It seems that he has obtained a protective umbrella inexplicably, and has a big backer, but he has actually become a vassal of others.

With a wry smile, Xu Jin thought to himself, this little bastard eats people and doesn't spit out his bones, not to take advantage of the Xu family, but to subdue our Xu family.

From then on, the mighty Xujiazhuang in Mizhou became the boy's vassal, and Xu Jin became more and more angry as he thought about it.

Overwhelming people with power, step by step, chained the tiger of the Xu family step by step, and it was too late to resist now.

But if you think about it carefully, what the dog official said is also reasonable. There are people in the court who are good at handling things. If you cover up and sneak around by yourself, it is better to find a big backer to do it blatantly.

I just don't know if this little imperial envoy is reliable or not.

Mizhou is a natural port near Jiaozhou Bay.The best place for Japanese people to do business. Although the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the local tyrants here are a little rustic and have real money in their pockets.

The Xu family has controlled Mizhou Port for so many years, and the wealth they have accumulated is even more frightening, and they have a complete smuggling system.

If Yang Lin subdues such a Xujiazhuang, he can save at least ten years of struggle.
