Zhu Youlang summoned Qu Shili to tell the story of Huang Rizhang's rebellion. Qu Shili was shocked at first and said in a deep thought: "Huang Rizhang was an official of the old dynasty, and was unemployed at home and was dissatisfied with the current situation. In addition, the new policy canceled the privileges of scholars, so it is reasonable to be dissatisfied. Huang Fengyuan was a wealthy businessman and was dissatisfied with the emperor's increase in the commercial tax rate. Like Yuebao, the old army's habits were difficult to change and it was difficult to adapt to the reform of the army. These people just represented several forces and were also victims of the new policy. The emperor, in the opinion of his ministers, this case should be handled with great fanfare, which could just serve as a deterrent effect and promote the new policy."

"Yes, that's what I mean."

"Then let Yan Ruogong take the lead and work with Ma Jixiang and Li Yuanyin to do it, what?"

"Put Tai Chong in. He was once accused by the Qing spies. It is good to see if these people were imprisoned in the house that day. If so, then it will be over. If not, it means that the Qing people still have a place to settle in Guangzhou, and it will take some trouble."

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

...

Huang Rizhang saw that Emperor Yongli's new policy was increasingly accepted by all forces, especially the people were even more excited and praised the new policy. Then good news continued to come from military affairs, first He Tengjiao was in Hunan, then Li Chengdong had a great victory in Chongyangxi, and recently, there was Jin Shenghuan of Jiangxi, Wang Deren returned to the Ming Dynasty anyway, and the Yongli regime became more and more stable. All of this made Huang Rizhang anxious.

"The scholar rebelled for three years." Huang Rizhang knew the importance of having soldiers. Without soldiers, it would be impossible for them to succeed in rebellion. Although there were Yue Bao and Liu Kezhen, they had too few soldiers under their command, and they could not become a climate.

However, when Su Xiong did not take the bait, Chen Jitai looked unhurried and urged him to show off with his second son several times. He always said that the time was not right. As long as the time came, there was no need to show off, could his son not listen to me? Just pull it over and use it.

This is the reason, but Huang Rizhang always feels unsure.

Chen Jitai's attitude slowly made Huang Rizhang suspicious, thinking: "What does Chen Jitai mean? Could it be that he wants to step on two boats? Or that he doesn't show a rabbit or an eagle? He has not achieved success, and he doesn't want to pull his son in to roam the water?"

With doubts, the two gradually became disconnected.

If people in the city cannot use it, then use soldiers outside the city.

Huang Rizhang slowly stopped using Chen Family Bing or Su Family Bing. He asked Huang Yue to secretly contact the pirate Xu Guixiang to see if it could be used.

Xu Guixiang has had a hard time these days.

As pirates, looting merchant ships was their main means of making a living. However, since Yongli took over Guangzhou, the business tax was increased, but the protection of merchants was also strengthened. Lin Cha's fleet did not go to war, and in addition to anti-smuggling at sea, he even escorted merchant ships, causing them, pirates to lose an important source of life.

Big merchants have contact with pirates, and some pirates are even raised by big merchants. The four pirates at sea, Shibi, Ma Lisheng, Xu Guixiang, and Zheng Tingqiu, all have their own long-term customers. The Huang family and Nanyang are doing tea and spice business, and have always been under the protection of Xu Guixiang. The two families have been in constant contact.

Huang Rizhang asked his son to bring 10,000 taels of silver notes to meet Xu Guixiang. He believed that Xu Guixiang would agree to his request.

Not to mention Chen Jitai, Huang Fengyuan and Su Mingfeng didn't know about this.

...

Lu Daqi, Huang Zongxi, Ma Jixiang and Li Yuanyin were very skilled in their work. In just one day, all the people involved were arrested and brought to justice. Huang Rizhang, Huang Fengyuan, Su Mingfeng, Yue Bao, Liu Kezhen, and a civil servant in the cabinet named Du Xiangyang, were all captured in one go, but Huang Rizhang's son Huang Yue was left.

Although he was a little regretful, Zhu Youlang was very happy. For nothing else, he just searched the house and confiscated thirteen houses, more than thirty shops, 110,000 taels of gold, 2.4 million taels of silver, and countless other jewelry and jade wares.

These are all required to be entered into the internal warehouse.

"I've sent it, it's really sent it! I've sent it again." It's been raining in Guangzhou these days, and it's been five days in a row, but I don't see any eyes. Zhu Youlang was very upset about this kind of weather, which makes people feel abnormal. Although there are palace maids fanning, their bodies are still sticky. But when they see the house search list presented by Lu Daqi, they feel much more comfortable, and they feel that every pore in their body is also comfortable.

"Why am I so loving money? Is it true that there is a gene for the old Zhu family's wealth-keeping slaves? Since the Taizu, none of the emperors of the old Zhu family are greedy for money. During the Wanli period, the national treasury became increasingly empty, and the border wages could not be paid, and there was no silver for relief. He would rather increase taxes again and again than allocate a penny of silver from the inner treasury, which caused public resentment and national affairs to go bad, and eventually ruined the country. It is said that Li Zicheng captured the city of Beijing and found more than 30 million taels of silver from the inner treasury. It is a pity that the country belongs to? It's not your old Zhu family, why do you cherish money? The country has lost, what's the use of leaving so much silver? Isn't it cheap? Emperor Wanli is my legitimate grandfather. Could it be that I am like him? Or is it related to the experience of poor students and poor families in his previous life?"

Zhu Youlang was happy and couldn't help but analyze his greedy personality.

"Wife, it's better to hold it in."

If you have money in the inner treasury, you can do a lot of things. In the future, you will not need money when you are engaged in education, scientific research, and economic development? Now the treasury has money. If one day the treasury is not enough, you must pay the treasury silver to the treasury.

Anyway, I have to use the silver in the right place, so I must not let them lie in Curry and grow hair.

"Li Hong, hold an umbrella, I'll go to the treasure house to take a look."

Zhu Youlang felt that just looking at these numbers, he didn't have a real feeling, so he still felt satisfied with the gold ingots, silver ingots and those treasures. So he made Li Hong hold an umbrella and wanted to go to the inner warehouse to take a look.

"Long live the letter, the Minister of Revenue Chen asked for a meeting." Just as he was about to leave, the eunuch guarding the gate came to report.

There are two Chen Shangshu in the cabinet. In order to facilitate the distinction, the eunuch always adds official positions when reporting.

"Prince!"

When Zhu Youlang Di heard that Chen Bangyan was coming, he felt bad and hid the house search list.

"Ling Bin, it's raining so heavily, what are you doing?" Zhu Youlang asked when Chen Bangyan saw the li.

"Your Majesty, I am worried. Both sides of the east and west are fighting, especially in the east, Li Chengdong's place is like eating silver. He has already allocated 200,000 taels, but Wang Fuzhi has come to ask for another 50,000 taels; Yang Guodong has now raised an army and sent people to ask for silver, which is 50,000 taels at a time. Also, it has been raining for five days, so I have to be prepared for disaster relief and have to ask for silver everywhere, but there are only 100,000 taels in the treasury. Where can I get the silver?" Chen Bangyan began to complain with a bitter face.
