Chapter 863 The evil made by Wen Yanbo

When things have come to this point, Wang Ning'an will also investigate without Wen Yanbo's words.

A factory with millions of chunks of income, it is unimaginable what he did to get so much money. Even Zhao Shu couldn't sit still. He asked Gou Yaer to follow Lao Wen to prevent the old guy from doing anything badly and destroying the evidence of crime.

Wang Ning'an immediately asked someone to seal the case file from the yamen and began a comprehensive investigation.

This investigation is really amazing. The hungry people set fire to rush to close the positions, but it is just the tip of the iceberg.

It turns out that this kind of case has been common since June and July. Recently, it was because Wen Yanbo arrived and sent a batch of relief grains, which barely suppressed it. However, unexpectedly, on the night Zhao Shu arrived, it broke out again, shattering the prosperity scene created by the old guy to death.

In addition to robbing grain, murder, robbery, and various cases in various places have increased by more than ten times compared with previous years. In addition, a large number of people fled, and many people ran to the nearby Shuibo Liangshan. It is said that hundreds of bandits gathered there, and they were very arrogant. The court had sent officers and soldiers to clear them out, but when the officers and soldiers appeared, these people hid or became ordinary fishermen. When the officers and soldiers left, they immediately revealed their true colors, robbed their families and looted everywhere.

"Your Majesty, Prince, because Shuibo Liangshan is located in Yunzhou, the people of Jeju fled and ran to Shuibo. The main disaster is Yunzhou. If you go to check the files in Yunzhou, it will only be a hundred times more serious than Jeju. However, no one in Yunzhou dares to say it, and there is hard to say!" Wang Bang explained.

Zhao Shu glared at him, "Is it because of Wen Yanbo? They are afraid of offending Mr. Wen?"

Wang Bang didn't say anything, but he already understood the meaning.

"This Wen Yanbo is simply hateful! Is there any big picture in his eyes? Are there any people?" Zhao Shu slapped the table in anger!

Wang Bang said: "Your Majesty, Prince, there are some things that Mr. Wen may not know about, and the people below are also hiding from him."

"Do you think I am a deaf person or a blind person?" Zhao Shu roared angrily: "You say, tell me clearly what happened to Jeju since the change of cotton planting?"

Wang Bang followed his father's intention and stayed in the place. In addition to observing the situation in Yanzhou, he also often went to Jeju and Shanzhou to check it out. Therefore, he knew very well about many situations.

As Zhao Shu's future second brother-in-law, he has nothing to hide.

...

Wen Yanbo promoted the change in cotton planting, and many tenants were unhappy... They paid rent for farming, and the rest was food, which could fill their stomachs and grow cotton. They could not eat cotton boa, right?

Although they would buy cotton, give them some money and ask them to buy food, but where to buy food at the price of the grain? Many things were not explained clearly, and it would be strange if the people were willing to do it.

But the problem is that Wen Yanbo is urging him tightly, and those wealthy families from Jiangnan are merchants, and there is no obligation to explain. Moreover, these fields were originally from the Kong family, and they are now the owners. They grow whatever they want, and tenants get out if they don’t want to do it. Anyway, there is no shortage of people who work!

In order to change the cotton planting as soon as possible, these merchants also joined forces with local officials to gather all the thugs, villains, gangsters, hooligans, rogues, gangsters, and gangsters who once depended on the Kong family.

These people were used to force the people to change to grow cotton. No one agreed, they beat and scolded them at any time, and even more serious things were that they burned the house and drove the people away!

"It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable!"

Zhao Shu was so angry that his little face was distorted. You Wen Yanbo, you actually caused such a big mess to promote the change of cotton planting. The stubborn people live and die. You, you, you deserve to die!

Wang Bang didn't stop yet, he continued to talk... When the planting was changed, there was a mess. When millions of acres of cotton were planted, the chaos did not stop.

Because cotton fields need irrigation and use more water than wheat and sorghum, there is a problem of fighting for water sources in the local area, and traditional farmers and cotton farmers are having a lot of fun.

The big businessmen raised thugs and scoundrels, and they also participated. Wang Bang told Zhao Shu and Wang Ning'an that, according to his knowledge, at least because of the water fight, more than 100 people died, and even more so many were injured.

I finally waited for the cotton to be harvested, because it took a few days to pick the cotton boaths while it was sunny, and it was not too early or late.

These days have been hard, but the wages are also quite good.

Many ordinary people hope to do more work and make some money. This year's food must be purchased from outside. If you don't make more money, you will only go hungry.

But what is the result?

But they found that when they were actually collecting cotton, the big families got many slaves from somewhere... These slaves were very short and had a pair of crocodile legs, but they were very hardworking.

As long as you give me some food, you can work from day to night, or even work in the night under the moonlight.

The emergence of slaves cut off the people's wealth path. The surplus labor force complained and could only go to the city to seize limited opportunities and mess up the city.

If these chaos can still be withstood, it was a catastrophe when purchasing cotton.

The big players still point to the rascals to acquire them.

Just imagine, can these people not take the opportunity to take advantage of it?

The court collected land taxes, and big fights went in and small fights, and the gangsters made innovations.

They deliberately did not tell the acquisition location, and the people could only wait in the county town in advance. Many people waited for two or three days, but had no place to live, and had no food or drink... They were exhausted and came to the acquisition at this time. The price was so high that the people could only sell it with tears in their eyes.

Some people deliberately look for trouble, lowering the cotton level, or even simply not.

Many ordinary people have been busy for a year and have lost all their money.

"Enough!"

Zhao Shu couldn't stand it anymore, he clenched his teeth!

"Master, this Wen Yanbo is simply careless! Go and call him, I want to ask!"

Wang Ning'an was very calm. He listened carefully to Wang Bang's introduction. He was not surprised at all... Not to mention the Song Dynasty, even if it was released in later generations, if it was not carefully prepared, it would be strange if it was eager for quick success and instant benefits and forced changes. It would be strange if there was no chaos!

At this moment, Wen Yanbo was completely gone from yesterday's arrogant attitude. He was so anxious that he was spinning back and forth, like an ant on a hot pan.

In fact, he heard about some situations, but he never took them seriously and thought they were not a big deal. But at this point, Wen Yanbo dared not be careless. He found out various files and asked about the local situation, and his head immediately became big!

"You guys want my life!"

Lao Wen raised his hand and shook his son Wen and Fu's mouth hard!

"Your father's reputation for life is going to be ruined!"

Wen Jifu was beaten to the point of being full of stars and was full of grievances, "Dad, they are all those unlucky people who don't cooperate, and their sons have no choice. There are also those big cotton merchants from Jiangnan. They are all rich and fat, but they are so petty. What if they harvest cotton, what if they give to the local people? Let them earn some money for food, so they won't make such a french!"

"Hmph, what's the use of saying this? Will Wang Ning'an let your father go?" Wen Yanbo's eyes were red.

"Dad, no matter what, we have added more than 2 million yuan in taxes. The credit is there. Your Majesty will not pursue this little thing!"

Wen Yanbo was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

"I tell you, the matters in the court are big or small, all depends on how they look at it. This time, the two kings will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble. If they don't cut off their heads, they will not be able to pass the test."

Wen Yanbo pondered: "No matter what, you can find a few people first, and wait for His Majesty to ask me and take them to blame."

Wen Jifu was stunned, "Dad, this is not good... They came for your old name. If they kill someone, no one will do anything for us again!"

"Bah! What else do you think about? If you can't pass this level, your father will be gone!"

Wen Jifu was sprayed with a look of spitting out a star. There was no way. He panicked and prepared a list of two big cotton merchants, several officials in charge, as well as local gangsters and gangsters.

As soon as I finished the list, the person who sent the order outside came.

Wen Yanbo could only grit his teeth and came to the palace.

"I pay homage to Your Majesty, I'm here to apologize!"

After a long time, Zhao Shu's voice came quietly.

"Mr. Wen, please be exempted from gifts!"

When Wen Yanbo stood up straight, Zhao Shu asked again: "Mr. Wen, what do you think?"

"I heard from Your Majesty, the old minister is indeed guilty of all kinds of chaos... The crime is not strict supervision and poor management... The old minister believes that local officials should be punished severely. As for merchants, they are determined to pursue profits and are insatiable. They do not think about the court at all, and they should be severely punished. The old minister has investigated clearly. These are several officials with bad behavior and a few bad businessmen. The old minister begs to be executed immediately to calm the hearts of the people!"

After saying that, Wen Yanbo handed over the list.

I have to say that Wen Yanbo is quite efficient. Seeing this, Zhao Shu's anger also faded a little.

"Corrupt officials, Mo officials and black businessmen must be punished, but I am still a little confused. Mr. Wen, you see, these things are all caused by cotton spinning factories. How should we choose?"

Wen Yanbo felt a little cold when he asked this.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the cotton spinning factory is still good. After all, it has increased so many years of income. The court fought south and north, expanded territory, and built a foundation that will never be established forever. All of them are inseparable from money... After all, local officials and merchants are unscrupulous, and have failed the grace of the holy people and killed the people. The old minister, as the prime minister, neglected supervision in the past, was too convinced of the ethics of the people below... The old minister is willing to take the crime together."

Wen Yanbo, an old man, is accustomed to avoiding the important and shirking his responsibilities. His words sound quite reasonable, but in fact they are all rude words, constantly expelling themselves and ruling all the charges to the lower level. He was just insidious and confused... But can things be that simple?

"Master, what do you mean?"

Zhao Shu asked about Wang Ning'an.
