Chapter 695 Immediately meet outside the city

"Severe crackdown" is also a new name for the knowledgeable people in the capital. After knowing the method of this name, I thought it was very appropriate after thinking about it carefully.

A thief was caught somewhere in the south city, and a bureau in the west street was caught. Such news began to increase. After being caught, he was executed twice as much as the rules of the yamen. Thirty boards became sixty boards. And so on, it was not the local yamen runners who were executed, but the Jinyi Guards who had completed the training.

The training is hard, and the instructors beat and scolded each other, and they are full of anger. They will not be light when they are executed. Some people are beaten to death directly in the yamen, and those who are injured are almost certain.

Such a person will not be pitiful if he kills and is disabled, but it does not match Wang Tong's original intention and has an order issued. In the future, the board will be changed to whip.

Although the whip is covered with blood, it can be cured after applying medicine, and people will not be disabled. However, after applying medicine, they do not put the person back directly, but take him out of the city to wait. There are many manors outside the city and many work. Some of these people are busy, and they are scrambled into and out of the city and are guarded by the soldiers and chariots in and out, so they cannot escape.

At that time, the official document explained clearly that after the punishment, labor reform was required to make the man's rules tempered before he could let him be left alone.

Some people work in manors outside the city for a month before going back, while others are sent to the farms north of Tianjin Wei, and some are struggling.

The first thief who was wanted was sent to the yamen. After dozens of sticks were left to death, the public security atmosphere in the capital suddenly improved. Under the heavy punishment, no one was afraid of his life.

The gangsters who do not do things in a good manner everywhere and harm neighbors. Those who can leave the city will go out of the city to visit their relatives, those who hide, those who stay at home will be trembling and dare not do anything. Some of them are temporarily dull and occasionally discuss in private. They say that it is such a harsh law, and they may not be able to do it for a long time and wait until the limelight has passed before coming out.

Unexpectedly, a few days after the crackdown began, news came out that the Jinyiwei was investigating the accumulated cases in Shuntian Prefecture. In previous years, cases were committed but not found out. If the circumstances were serious, they would need to be thoroughly investigated.

There is no such thing as ten treasures and ten beautiful things in this world. I used the money and entrusted my relationship on the day of the case, and delayed it. If the Jinyiwei really wanted to investigate, there would be something that could not be found out.

As soon as this news came out, even those who were so calm still rushed out of the city, fearing that they would be swept away. Not only would they be beaten to death, they would not be able to endure hard labor!

All parties in the capital have always been indifferent to the Jinyiwei, and even tended to feel bad about it. But when they met every day, they got used to it. However, after the crackdown began, the Jinyiwei everywhere had a much higher evaluation. Passers-in-law soldiers patrolling the streets often came over and gave thumbs up and praised them.

Most of the Qingliu scholars were rich and noble families, but they could not resist the praise of the poor family. Moreover, the servants around them would also say good things and public opinion. They did not dare to stroke the tiger's beards, and they said cruelty or disrespectful rules, so they pretended to be invisible.

From the beginning of the "critical crackdown" in May, there have been a lot of controversy among the people in the capital, and the people applauded, but the officials treated them indifferently, as if this was not the case.

“…”

The reason why the official and Shilin were indifferent to the Jinyiwei's actions to purify the public security of the capital was that on the one hand, he did not want Wang Tong to show his achievements, and on the other hand, there was another major event that attracted everyone's attention.

In April of the 11th year of Wanli, Concubine Wang Gong gave birth to a prince and named it Changluo in the palace. This boy has a great significance to Emperor Wanli because he was the first son of Emperor Wanli. The dynasty continued by blood inheritance. A male child appeared, proving that there were successors in the Ming Dynasty, which was naturally a big deal.

Congratulations were submitted everywhere. According to conventions, there should be a banquet for ministers and officials, Baidu Tieba, Jinyi as the country, and a general amnesty for the world. However, Emperor Wanli did not do it, but just gave the emperor the title of the eldest son and ignored it.

Everyone was in a state of excitement, but this action in the palace seemed to pour a basin of cold water on everyone, which made all officials feel disappointed. The birth of the eldest son soon became quiet.

News in the palace was soon spreading, saying that the Emperor Longsheng still favored Concubine Zheng and Concubine Li De, and occasionally summoned other concubines, but Empress Wang and Concubine Wang basically ignored it.

What the emperor thinks is clear through this, and all officials and ministers are less eager to express their opinions. Giving birth to a baby does not mean that they can become humans, and there is a great possibility of a failure. It is not too late to wait a few years to say it.

"""..."

After the operation to purge the capital's public security began, it immediately came true. No matter which generation, the gangsters, gangsters, thieves and robbers, they were all natives in front of the government and could not bring anything to the table. As long as the government was serious and cleaned up, they would not encounter any resistance. What's more, the Jinyiwei who took action was the always strong Jinyiwei, which was promoted by Wang Tong, the most popular powerful minister in the capital.

The job was extremely easy. Every day, the yamen in various places sent documents to Wang Tong. They reported any case and the results of the case were handled. The Public Security Department sent the reactions from the people one by one. The original people's views on Wang Tong were greatly influenced by the scholars.

He believed that Wang Tong was a treacherous minister, a person like Jiang Bin and Qian Ning. When the crackdown regulations were released, the effect would be realized, and many people said it was "blue sky".

"Sir, the silver treasury in the city has been built, and the gold and silver from Tianjin Wei will be put into the warehouse tomorrow. Sun Xunshuan is watching this matter and there will be no mistakes."

"It's just a house that was dug up and said something about the silver treasury. But when I think about the so-called clear streams blocking the door when I entered Beijing, they are really funny. The distance between Beijing and Tianjin is so close, is it really confused? I have to bring all the silver in at once!"

Hearing Yang Sichen's report, Wang Tong laughed and teased a few words. On that day, Wang Tong brought only tens of thousands of taels of silver for his own use, and the rest were gold and silver sent to the palace.

The large amount of gold and silver that we really wanted to bring were delivered in batches, either by car or by boat, and were sent to the capital without notice. At this time, no one paid attention. Yang Sichen smiled and said, "This year, the plate income in Sanjiang can be more than a hundred%. With the fleets of Sha Dacheng, the trade between our Tianjin Wei and Liao Town is much more convenient. Several large commercial banks have set up semicolons in Liaoyang and Shenyang. However, Sanjiang Commercial Bank has done it early, and this time it is a sea of ​​gold and silver."

Wang Tong smiled and nodded the table, saying, "Don't stop the scruples are also jealous. We are also making money. We will take out 50% of the shares. From the general Li Chengliang and the military commander Gao to the ones below, everyone will share some of them. This letter will be delivered to Zhang Shiqiang as soon as possible. Zhang Shiqiang is the man who is responsible and keeps his duties close to everything, but sometimes he is reluctant to spend money. He has to spend these money."

Yang Sichen agreed with a smile, and he almost wrote it up there. Everything about Tianjin Wei was on track. Wang Tong came to the capital and became more and more powerful. Moreover, his duties in Tianjin Wei were not removed. Everyone saw this and understood that this was a signal from the inside and outside of the palace.

No one would be confused and touched Tianjin Wei. Although it has become one of the best places for wealth gathering in the world, if you want to do it, you should compete with the palace for meat to eat, and you should be careful of Wang Tong's various methods.

"I read the news about Tianjin Weilai. Are there only private people who go to Jiangfang and shipyard to buy things?"

"No, but someone asked if the craftsman is willing to sell artillery to them, advertisements, Cain said that he must be famous in the chaotic times of dawn, and Khan~~~ can pay twice the price. If he can help install it on the boat, can he still negotiate?"

Hearing Yang Sichen's reply, Wang Tong pondered for a while and said, "A cannon below three kilograms can be sold, five times the original price, and someone will guarantee it."

After saying a few words, Wang Tong remained silent again, creating excellent firearms and increasingly larger sea ships. These things should be equipped with the Ming army and should be equipped with the Ming navy to sail on the sea. However, the weapons, armor and ships of Tianjin Wei were almost famous all over the world, but no official officers and soldiers came to visit him.

But thinking about it, the military generals went to the arsenal to collect weapons. They didn’t say how the weapons were, but they didn’t have to spend a penny. Even if it was a difficult situation, the bribery money was nothing compared to real money and real money. Besides, the army was the revolutionary team of the Ming Dynasty and had nothing to do with their own homes. The equipment was good or bad, the combat power had nothing to do with them. Why buy these excellent weapons and armor that were not large enough? Isn’t it good to eat and use them yourself?

Wang Tong is not embarrassed about this. He can already promote many things in this position, so there is no need to hurry.

"Sir, the father-in-law of the Royal Horse Supervision Department is here."

While he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone outside informing him that Zou Yi is busy with his horse supervisor, and he is less likely to leave the palace. When he heard him coming, Wang Tong did not dare to be negligent and quickly invited him to the main hall to serve tea.

"Long time no see you, my uncle, is it always good?"

"It's just not seen each other for a month, so it's not long. There's something important in our family. Brother Wang will let all the irrelevant people disperse!!"

When there were only two people left in the house, Zou Yi looked a little serious and said, "This time we come, our family brought the oral order of the Master Long live here."

Wang Tong quickly stood up from his seat and was about to kneel down to receive the order. Zou Yi waved his hand and smiled and said, "It's just you and me, I'm just saying a few words. Long live our family and we will go out with you to see someone. We will leave tomorrow morning. Remember to keep it confidential and not let others know."
