Chapter 779: Traitors’ "wrongfulness"

Fan Yongdou came in, he was short and chubby, with a businessman's signature silly smile on his face, his forehead was light, and his head had his hair back. Obviously he used to be a pure hair style, now he has changed it back.

Let Qi Biaojia look at it and just don't like it!

Fan Yongdou Tsing Yi Xiaomao stepped forward and knelt down in front of Qi Biaojia and said, "The sinner Fan Yongdou knocks on Master Qi!"

Qi Biaojia assumed the status of Daming's cabinet minister and was a high-ranking official. He didn't let Fan Yongdou stand up, so he had to kneel and talk.

"You claim to be a criminal, but are you guilty?" Qi Biaojia asked him bluntly.

"The sinners do business with the Tatars, and the blame is hard to escape!" Fan Yongdou said.

Qi Biaojia knew that the businessman was cunning and wanted to go wrong from the beginning. There is a serious business in business, which is a different category from smuggling.

"Okay, let's listen!" Qi Biaojia didn't expose him, but listened first.

So Fan Yongdou continued to run away and talked about the origins of Shanxi merchants. He had made contributions to me, Daming!

The rise of Shanxi merchants originated from the provision of logistical supplies to Zhu Yuanzhang's army, and there were a lot of troops in the frontier, and the demand was huge. In return, Zhu Yuanzhang gave them salt and allowed them to sell salt. As a result, Shanxi merchants reaped rich returns from the salt industry under the control of the state. This is the process of Shanxi merchants starting their business.

"At that time, Daming was inaugurated and needed food and grass to defend the border. The army's logistics capacity was insufficient and the people would supplement it. Taizuye asked me to wait for Shanxi merchants to serve the country..." Fan Yongdou talked about authentically, showing the documents issued by the government at that time from the documents he brought with him. The license is a long time ago, in the twenty-sixth year of Ming Hongwu (1396 AD), almost two hundred and fifty years ago.

"During the Jiajing period, the imperial court opened borders and exchanged trade with Mongolia. We and the Shanxi merchants were ordered by the imperial court to trade with Mongolia, selling goods from the Central Plains in exchange for horses, cattle, sheep, animal skins and other materials." Fan Yongdou explained.

It turned out that in the twenty-ninth year of Jiajing (1550), Mongolian Alta Khan came to Beijing after sending envoys to request the opening of the tributary trade and fought under Beijing! The use of force to request the Ming government to open border trade is known as the Gengxu Change in history.

In the 30th year of Jiajing (1551), the Ming Dynasty was forced to open Xuanfu and Daping to trade horses with Mongolia. Soon, the Ming Dynasty rejected Mongolia's request to trade cattle and sheep and unilaterally closed the horse market, and the two sides went to war again. In 1570, the two sides began peace talks and reached an agreement the following year. The Ming Dynasty made me the king of Shunyi and opened 11 border trade ports.

"After the bilateral exchange, the east will be ruled from the sea, and the west will be Ganzhou, extending five thousand miles, and there will be no beacon fire!" Fan Yongdou described.

"Oh, then you not only have no fault, but you still have merit!" Qi Biaojia said calmly.

"Criminals, wronged!" Fan Yongdou said with a trombone tearing down.

Qi Biaojia said in disgust: "Let's talk about it!"

Fan Yongdou talked about the trade with the Qing people.

The first is the incompetence of the imperial court!

In the five years of Chongzhen, Huang Taiji chased and killed Lin Dan Khan. Lin Dan Khan displayed the talents of nomads and ran all over the grassland. Anyway, as long as there is water and weeds, the livestock will have food, and the herders will not run out of food.

Their hands are so powerful, unlike the Han people, they can't carry much food if they want to escape, so they have to throw it to Tanzi.

As soon as they fled and chased them, the Queen Jin army ran out of food and had to stop chasing-the turf in front was all nibbled by Lin Danhan's livestock, and Tanzi had nothing but mud.

At that time, they were so hungry that they were hungry until their front belly was pasted on the back belly. They turned their heads and looked up, ho, there is a big city in front of them. When asked, it was Zhangjiakou in Mingguo.

Huang Taiji laughed, and said with a whip: "Brothers, go to Zhangjiakou to eat and drink with Ben Khan!"

When he said that, Zhubelebei and Tarzi were sweating profusely. Don't be starving, and talk nonsense.

I don't even have the strength to climb a ladder if I want to attack the city.

Tarzi soldiers surrounded Zhangjiakou, sent people into the city to negotiate with the Ming bureaucracy, blackmail the "reward" originally belonged to the Ming Dynasty to Lin Danhan, purchase food and various materials.

That is to say, Huang Taiji beat Lin Dan Khan and now demands to inherit Lin Dan Khan's rights.

This request is unreasonable, but the Ming Dynasty officials in Zhangjiakou obediently gave in and gave it!

"That's it, the court is asking me to wait for the Shanxi merchants to supply Tarzi supplies. I can't resist the court, we are forced, I can't..." Fan Yongdou's aggrieved tears streamed in his eyes.

Qi Biaojia was distracted when he heard this, the plot seemed a bit familiar.

Ah, remember,

In 1633 AD, during the third Battle of Batavia, a pirate defeated the Dutch, captured Batavia, and changed its name to Java.

He led the fleet to pursue the Dutch to Banten (located in western Java), and extorted the Banten people on the grounds of inheriting the interests of the Dutch in Banten.

The people of Banten were obviously better than the officials of Mingguo in Zhangjiakou, and rejected such unreasonable requests. The Pirate took this as an excuse to go to war against the people of Banten!

Stop, stop, can't think about it

...

Fan Yongdou complained bitterly about his family history: Shanxi merchants serve the people, so how can the huge profits gained from trading with the Tatars be something the ordinary people can eat!

Behind the Shanxi merchants were the civil servants of the Liao Income Interest Group, and even some factory guards and generals took shares.

If there is no concerted effort from the princes, nobles, civil servants, and generals behind to **** them, wouldn't those who cross-check them all be blind? So much food and ironware were transported out, and those princes and nobles are indispensable.

Qi Biaojia understood it, that is, the bureaucracy found a few Shanxi merchants in Zhangjiakou to put it on the surface. As their white gloves, the real big thing, the energy of the Shanxi merchants can't be done anyway. ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The water here is very deep. I left it before, and the criminals did not dare to speak out, but for Master Qi, the criminals have no reservations! "Fan Yongdou was impassioned and authentic.

"Can there be evidence?" Qi Biaojia asked.

evidence? Yes!

Fan Yongdou showed evidence, a receipt named Ye Yun signed by him for fifty thousand taels of silver.

"Who is this person?" Qi Biaojia asked with his finger on Ye Yun.

"He is the steward of the chief assistant Ye Xianggao, and the silver was collected by Ye Yun when my father sent to Ye Mansion!" Fan Yongdou confessed truthfully.

"Bold!" Qi Biaojia beat the stage fiercely.

Who is Ye Xianggao? Qi Biaojia was an official of the Ming Dynasty and knew that Ye Xianggao was the prime minister of the cabinet during the Wanli and Tianqi reigns of the Ming Dynasty. He presided over the affairs of the state. Fan Yong was bold enough to slander his former prime minister!

Before the Southeast Mansion defeated the Donglin Party, Ye Xianggao was also a registered person and was deprived of all honours.

Leaders can engage in the Donglin Party, but Xiaomin must not talk nonsense about his former first assistant!

Even Shoufu is greedy, there are still good officials in this officialdom?

However, Fan Yongdou insisted that this is a fact, and you can investigate if you don't believe it.

He was so sure that Qi Biaojia believed him for three points, because Qi Biaojia knew that Ye Xianggao was a member of the Donglin Party, and the Donglin Party member was the protector of commerce.

This public case was temporarily suspended, Qi Biaojia asked: "Is there any evidence?"

Yes, this time Fan Yongdou showed another receipt, indicating that he had received ten thousand taels of silver, and the person who issued the receipt was named Jiang Yang.

A faint smile appeared on Fan Yongdou's face and said: "This man is the brother of the former Datong General Soldier and the current Major General Jiang Gu of the Southeast Army. He is taking care of his business. Now he is still in Datong City. The adults are looking for him. The handwriting knows the true and false!"

Hearing what he said, Qi Biaojia shook his head helplessly.
