Yan Changwu feels very sorry!

Yang Chengxin, born as a Jinshi in Ming Dynasty, from Haicheng, Fujian, a true township party!

At the beginning of Xinming's establishment, he supported the Southeast Mansion to take over Nanjing and made great contributions.

Deeply trusted, he was not allowed to be the chief minister of the cabinet in the future. Unexpectedly, he was recruited and dragged down by salt merchants.

Yan Changwu sat down, asked him to sit down, ordered tea, and talked to him in detail: "There are two people in front of you. Ma Shiying will step down after two years of tenure. Yang Tiansheng is a soy saucer who can never take the post. The first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, you are ranked third, and you have a good chance of being an extremely human minister, powerful and powerful, and you are highly relied on by the princess of Zhenguo. What are you not satisfied with?"

indeed!

Compared with the former Ming, the power of the Xinming cabinet is not trivial. First of all, Xinming recognizes that the prime minister is the prime minister, and the cabinet member is equivalent to the deputy prime minister. The rank is the highest except for some honorary official titles, and the treatment is sufficient. , The ruling Yan Changwu pays attention to pay according to work, and the income of cabinet members with heavy work and heavy responsibility is almost the highest!

Moreover, both Chinese and Chinese are in charge of women, and their natural defects make them more dependent on the cabinet, so the cabinet is very powerful!

If it were not for the domestic army to be controlled by the heroine and to announce that the first assistant would only have two terms at most, I would really be afraid of disaster!

"What's not satisfied?" Yang Chengxin muttered, passing the boxes and boxes of silver dollars, the extremely delicate beauties, the table full of delicacies, the precious calligraphy and paintings of famous celebrities, and those high-ranking officials. Jia's sweet words...Finally he said dejectedly: "The criminal minister has nothing to say!"

When Yan Changwu left Qingliang Temple, the officer gave Yang Chengxin the four treasures of the house and a white porcelain vase. The meaning was very obvious!

With trembling hands, Yang Chengxin wrote "Farewell to Wife and Children", which asked his wife to take good care of his parents and exhorted his son to behave well, follow the rules and make no mistakes.

After finishing writing, he picked up the white porcelain bottle, opened the lid, and drank it in one fell swoop.

Three minutes later, he fell to the ground with a dead body and died!

On the same day, the imperial court reported that Yang Chengxin, a member of the Ming cabinet, died of a sudden illness. The court gave three thousand silver dollars to the funeral. Yan Changwu personally gave ten thousand silver dollars to the friendship between the monarchs and the ministers.

It looks like Wang En mighty, but!

The Yang family could only take away the three thousand silver dollars. The house was secretly confiscated, and a copper plate could not be taken away. Not only that, his hometown was also confiscated, and all of his family properties were entered into the government.

In any case, his reputation was not damaged, and he was not included in the history of shame, because he knew what to do. Before Yan Changwu came, he wrote a detailed account, clearly describing the transactions in the officialdom, and written to him. Officials and salt merchants who paid bribes provided great convenience to the court.

Yan Changwu missed his old feelings. Although he could not be pardoned, he kept his reputation and preserved the face of the court. Otherwise, the third highest position among the civil servants would have an accident, the court's complexion would be damaged, and the princess Zhenguo would be even more embarrassed.

...

Wangjiang Tower of the King Palace in the Southeast of Nanjing.

Yan Changwu and Princess Zhu Zhen are really having dinner. At this time, the sky is full of red clouds, the light is magnificent, and the scenery is beautiful.

The food is "unusually" simple --- In comparison with those salt merchants, only four dishes and one soup are Poria Lao Duck soup, fried river prawns, fried pigeon, braised eggplant and seasonal vegetables.

The portion is right, the couple finished the rice and vegetables, and the CD acted!

Yan Changwu is a native of South Fujian, and he will be punished by his mother and grandmother for wasting eating while sailing!

What good food can you have for a long time at sea, and dare to waste it, this is death!

No matter where in the two China, Yan Changwu always eats like this. He sometimes eats very good dishes, but he always tries hard to finish it without waste.

Zhu Zhenzhen's tutor is very good. He knows that "Who knows that Chinese food is hard to eat", and it is not luxurious.

After dinner, the maid served them fruit and tea, Yan Changwu drank tea, Zhu Zhenzhen caught the memorial at the table and read it again.

This memorial came before the meal, which made the couple feel bad, especially Zhu Zhenzhen, this is a affair caused by her rule!

This was led by cabinet member Ruan Dacheng, who had been tried by the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, Dali Temple, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to make an opinion on the proposed handling of the Yangzhou salt case.

The amount involved is as high as 18.5 million silver dollars, which is a shocking case!

In Daming, Yan Changwu has advocated economic development in the past ten years. The salt farms in various places have a large output and good quality.

China produces good salt!

Mingguo has a large population and more and more wealthy people, who can afford and eat more salt.

Because of its good quality, white color, uniform and fine particles, and salty taste (most of the salt produced in other countries is bitter), it is exported to countries all over the world, mainly to countries north of Southeast Asia, including Japan, Ryukyu, and North Korea. , Annan, Indochina, Siam (Thailand), Cambodia, and Laos, earn a lot of silver dollars.

In those countries, the upper-middle class eats only Chinese salt, and the lower class eats domestically produced coarse salt.

There is no way. Their technical level is limited and cannot be as good as Chinese salt. For example, the salt production in the country is very sad. On the surface, its long coastline is conducive to salt production, but there are no qualified salt farms.

Salt production is to dry sea water, simple? In fact, the location of the saltworks must have a large area of ​​tidal flats, with more sunny days, less rain and more wind. Waguo has no saltworks with suitable conditions, and typhoons come to join in the excitement. As soon as the typhoon comes, the salt farms all over the country turn into salt water. What typhoons like are The arrival of summer and autumn is a good time for Haiyan production. When the typhoon is gone, the opportunity for Haiyan production has passed.

The same is true in other small countries. It depends on the face of God if you want to produce good salt.

The domestic salt conditions in Ming Dynasty are unique, with long coastlines, mostly flat terrain and broad tidal flats, which are very suitable for building beaches and drying salt. The coasts of the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea have large annual evaporation, and there is an obvious dry season --- no rain, which is exactly the production. The weather is good for salt. The temperature along the East China Sea and the South China Sea is relatively high. In addition to the rainy season, there are also dry seasons, which generally have salt-producing conditions. Therefore, Mingguo can produce good salt from Liaodong in the north and Hainan Island in the south.

When a typhoon is coming, China is so big that if it affects the north, it will not affect the south, and if it affects the south, it will not affect the north. Anyway, there is always good salt production.

I have tasted the good taste of Mingguo. The upper-middle class in the small Chinese countries eat Chinese salt!

The export volume is large and huge profits are made, and the salt merchants make a lot of money!

There is an important reason for making money, that is, the market of Southeastern countries is giving up.

The southeastern country spans thousands of miles from the east and west of the earth. The salt production technology and conditions are not under the Ming country, and the output is also quite large. However, in order to allow the Ming country to recuperate after the war and obtain more development funds, the southeast country’s salt is not available in the South China Sea, mainly in the country. Sales and sales to the west ~lightnovelpub.net~ For example, Myanmar and Sri Lanka, the most important market is India, and the realized salt dumping completely occupied the Indian market.

They really want to fight against Mingguo and compete for the salt export market. Southeastern countries have this ability, but they were stopped by Yan Changwu through administrative orders.

Taiwan produces good salt. Its cloth bag salt field is located on the southwest coast of Taiwan Island. The beach is straight and the terrain is gentle. It is dry and rainless in the winter half of the year. It often does not rain for two to three months. Think about how good it is!

In the winter half of the year, there is no typhoon, the sunshine is sufficient, the monsoon is strong, and the salt content of the sea is also high. The weather and the place are combined with the harmony of people. The cost of the salt produced is low, the color is pure white, and it can be called the top grade. It is really a price war and occupation. More than half of Mingguo's export market is nothing to say.

Taiwan is now under the jurisdiction of a Southeastern country. It is forcibly not allowed to sell salt to Mingguo and the area north of the South China Sea. It can only be sold to Taiwan and Southeast Asia. The problem is that the production of salt in Southeast Asia is not inferior. Taiwan's salt shipping to Southeast Asia has turned into a sale. If you don't go out, you can see how big the loss is!

Fortunately now, Yan Changwu's painstaking efforts have been ruined by the corrupt officials and salt merchants. He was kindly eaten by dogs and struck by lightning!

There are more than 100 middle and senior officials involved. The highest official position is actually the third highest in the cabinet. On the surface, it is the governor of Suzhou taking the lead. Below is a string of officials, which is shocking!

The salt merchants in Yangzhou have caught everything in one go. If you don’t investigate the matter, you will have to take out the radish. There are all kinds of crimes, such as colluding with the government, bullying the market, buying and selling, merging people’s land, and even life lawsuits. There are no good people in the county." No salt merchant is innocent.

Ruan Dacheng's handling opinion is that the officials who are found out will be killed, and the rest will be exiled, and the family properties will be confiscated. The salt merchants will be exiled and the family properties will be confiscated because of the confession and leniency!

If you really want to deal with it in this way, the impact can be very huge!

And what about it?
