Daming: I asked you to hang yourself, but I didn’t ask you to rebuild the Ming Dynasty

Chen Qiyu naturally knows the true strength of Shanxi merchants!

Shanxi merchants are not easy to deal with when they are able to run rampant outside the Great Wall. They have a lot of thugs!

Apart from anything else, which merchant's family doesn't have thousands of clerks?

Shanxi merchants paid very high wages, and these guys were their servants in disguise.

even……

These guys are far more fearless than servants!

Chen Qiyu was very worried, fearing that the emperor would lead dozens of people and start attacking the city like before...

Zhu Youjian laughed.

How could he not know Chen Qiyu's worries!

To put it bluntly, the reason why he used Jiang Xiang and others was just in case!

"Chen Qing, don't worry.

The Ming Dynasty has many soldiers and generals today, so I have no reason to personally take risks. "

Zhu Youjian responded with a smile.

He sneered:

"I let them live for more than half a year.

I have done my best to them!

Even, sometimes, I can't help but think - admit your mistake, as long as you admit your mistake, I can give you a lighter punishment...

however……

They are determined to have their own way!

Since they are determined to follow the Tatars, don't blame me!

Just in time, the Qing court entered the customs and moved to the capital, Duduo led his army to garrison in Guihua City, and the caravans of the eight families returned to Shanxi.

Their families are reunited..."

Zhu Youjian's face was cold:

"It's time for me to catch them all in one fell swoop!"

There was something Zhu Youjian didn't say, but Chen Qiyu also knew it.

The eight Shanxi merchants were able to smuggle Donglu again and again, and they must have fed all the border generals.

Regardless of whether the generals know what the Eight Families are doing...

The money will not be collected less!

Because they don’t accept—

I can't live!

There are constant wars in the north, the literary style is not prosperous, and there are not many high-ranking officials in the court. Naturally, there are even fewer people who can cheer for the frontier troops.

As for the officials who dared to impeach "the money has been allocated by the court, but the money has not reached the hands of the military town" - they are almost extinct.

As a result, the Zhu family had few resources, and under the advocacy and shouting of the Donglin parties, they became more inclined to Liaodong.

Not to mention how much military pay the literati group spent on them...

Even if the Ministry of Accounts issues a few false receipts, "no one" will complain...

In addition, since Emperor Longqing, the right-wing Mongolia began to pay tribute, and there have been no military disasters since then.

As a result, military pay and supplies were withheld from the other eight sides of the town other than Liaodong.

Mao Wenlong said that the imperial court allocated money and food to his Dongjiang River, and after it came into his hands——

It is difficult to allocate three-tenths of the amount, and even worse, the emperor issues one-tenth of the original amount.

(In the first year of Chongzhen, Mao Wenlong wrote a famous self-defense essay. Mao Wenlong asked three times in a row, "Does the emperor know?"

They said that Mao Wenlong was disloyal and rebellious and deserved to die. But he never mentioned that Yuandudu beheaded Mao Wenlong on Mao Wenlong's territory and was able to leave safely. )

Just imagine, Mao Wenlong, who is on the back of the Tatars, cannot get any money, let alone the other eight towns that are "useless".

In this area - if there is one tenth, it means that the civil servants are incorruptible!

even……

It’s just that everything is deducted and I don’t give it to you. What can you do?

Do you dare to make trouble?

Qi Jiajun is making trouble...

So, no more!

The white-pole soldiers are making trouble...

So, the whole army died in battle...

Oh, I ran a few, but I didn’t end up dead.

Don't talk about making trouble, Mr. Sun holds Tongzhou's money and food, and Mr. Yuan is responsible for dispatching the entire army.

These two must be extremely loyal ministers who have been praised to the heavens!

It’s like in all of history – there is no one better than them!

The results of it?

The Shanshan soldiers who came to Qinwang were tortured so hard that they rebelled!

He is indeed a loyal minister!

It is indeed the best in history!

Sure enough, he is the official of Ming Dynasty!

……

It is also because of the severe drought in Shanxi and Shaanxi in the past few years that the big men dare not come over. Shanshan, Shaanxi and other countries have made troubles over wages the norm.

but……

You are making trouble, and I, Liaodong Town, are not just freeloaders!

Then make trouble!

Let's see who has the louder voice!

Who is it? There are more ministers who are helping to speak!

So, the balance, which was already tilted to the point of wanting to be vertical, tilted again...

How much salary did Liaodong receive?

Later generations will tell!

Those tens of thousands of soldiers still exist on paper, 800 million, 700 million, 300 million, 500 million a year...

Damn, it’s so precious!

With so much money, a group of peasants were sent to drag it over and pile it on the grassland.

All you need to do is shout out - Mongolian allies, quickly exchange your heads for silver!

Will there still be Donglu in this world?

Not to mention 20 taels per person, especially 200 taels per head, it’s absolutely amazing!

……

As for where the money ended up...

Anyway, there are eight beauties on the Qinhuai River - famous all over the world!

Everyone has a golden 13, but they are not so famous!

……

This is what the bird looked like in the late Ming Dynasty.

Jiangnan Wenchen Group controls the country.

Those who defend their home and country will not get any money.

Those who betray their clan and the country go out to play gold every day.

This important town on the Eight Sides often appears in the memorials and reports of later generations -

"The salary has been owed for three years", "the salary is insufficient and has not been paid for more than a year", "the minister has owed the salary for more than two years", "since a certain year, the minister has received a certain amount of salary and owed a certain amount"...

Anyway, it is normal for Bali not to receive payment!

However, in the records left on the six subjects' memorials and the ministry's consultation papers, we can see words like this -

"How much internal money is allocated, how much wages are owed to a certain place over the years", "How much taxes are transferred to a certain place, how much wages are owed to a certain town, how much is still owed", "How much silver is issued to the household department, how much internal money is allocated, how much is paid to a certain place" The town is in arrears with wages"...

(The ones that best reflect the real situation are, first, the "Notes on Living Life", then the "Records" compiled based on the Notes on Daily Life, memorials, court discussions, etc., and then the "History".

Chongzhen's notes on daily life have not been preserved, and the records of Emperor Tianqi only exist before the second year of Tianqi.

It's very strange!

Wanli's has been preserved.

The one from Taichang in January has also been preserved.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, these two brothers had only one year's living allowance combined.

The rest - said to be destroyed...)

……

In the Eighth Route Army Town, you really can’t get any pay.

Whether Chongzhen knew it or not, Zhu Youjian didn't know.

However, as a historical researcher, he naturally knew the true situation on the Eight Sides.

The generals cannot get paid, but they have to protect their families and the country.

The best way at this time is to ask the businessman for money.

It just so happens that no matter how they go, the eight Shanxi merchants cannot avoid Datong Town.

Even if they settled their family business in Zhangjiakou, a border gate in Xuanfu Town...

How much money did the border troops in Datong Town receive from Shanxi merchants...

Or is there any involvement in this matter...

Zhu Youjian decided not to pursue the case.

Sometimes, I understand in my heart, but there is no right or wrong in politics.

The Gourd Monk's Judgment of the Gourd Case refers to Zhu Yuanzhang's judgment of the Nanbei Bang Case...

Is Zhu Yuanzhang old and confused?

Do not!

Is there anything right or wrong in politics?

Zhu Youjian deliberately transferred the three Jiang Xiang brothers and the generals who were still flying the bright flag to the grassland.

Just to cut through the mess quickly.

Regardless of whether the border generals were involved in this matter or not, Zhu Youjian decided to pursue it until Shanxi merchants!
