Yingtian Mansion.

In an inconspicuous small teahouse on the banks of the Qinhuai River, there are three people in ordinary costumes who are slowly tasting tea.

"Assessing politics, don't be too small to see that this tea is not as good as the tribute." A young man with a bright face as bright as the moon said with a smile on his back tea.

The person who is called participating in politics is a middle-aged man with graceful demeanor and a smile on his face, saying, "Well, I'll try it."

Between them, there was a woman in her thirties, very ordinary, and nothing special. She picked up the teacup, frowned, and said with a slight disgust: "Why do you want to come to such a place?"

The young man always had a smile on his face, giving people an extremely sunny feeling. He looked at the woman and said, "I can't compare to the Chen family for many years. However, here, I can say something that cannot be said elsewhere."

The woman frowned, took a sip, but let it go in disgust.

The middle-aged man put down the teacup and smiled and said, "The fragrance is mellow and the fragrance remains in his mouth. It is indeed a good tea. If he put it outside, he would probably not taste it without ten taels of silver!"

The young man looked at the middle-aged man and said happily: "It is true that he is a soulmate in politics. Not to mention ten taels, one hundred taels may not be able to taste it!"

The woman didn't like such politeness, looked at the two of them and said lightly: "I'm just a woman, and there are not so many twists and turns. What do you want to do?"

The young man looked at the woman and smiled brightly and said, "Madam is so anxious, then I will open the window and speak loudly?" As he said that, he looked at the middle-aged man, his "participation in politics".

The middle-aged man smiled but said nothing, holding a teacup.

The young man turned to the woman and said, "Madam, your tea house and tea mountain are forcibly invested by Huitong Trading Bank, and the losses are not small?"

The woman frowned and looked at the young man with some discomfort.

The expansion of Huitong Trading Bank is actually an administrative monopoly. Salt, iron, tea, mines, money shops, etc. are all "invested" in various forms, and forcibly controlled by Huitong Trading Bank, which is almost "nationalized".

The young man looked at the woman and smiled and said, "We had no choice before. Now Huitong Trading Company is too busy to take care of itself and castrate itself. Should we do something?"

"Tell me directly." The woman frowned and said impatiently.

The smile on the young man's face was restrained and he said, "I heard that the sales rights of salt in Yingtianfu are in the Chen family?"

Huitong Trading Bank's investment is naturally not a plunder, but an alternative "cooperation" that is to give benefits and mutual benefit. Almost all merchants invested by Huitong Trading Bank make steady profits. For example, although the Chen family paid the benefits of tea, Huitong Trading Bank provided sufficient compensation for salt.

The woman became more and more impatient and said, "What the hell are you going to say?"

The young man restrained his expression and said, "The 'Jingzheng New Policy' is now in a dilemma, which has aroused opposition from the whole world. We are the most loss. Shouldn't we do anything? Haha, simple, we hope that there will be something wrong with the salt of the Chen family and we will not be able to go out for ten days and half a month."

The woman's face turned cold and said, "Do you know how much we are going to lose? If the court blames it, would you want your Liu family to bear it!"

The young man showed a confident smile on his face and said, "It won't take long, salt, tea, money shops, etc. will be in chaos. Are your Chen family willing to give the court money for nothing? Don't you want to get a share of the pie?"

The woman sneered and said, "You want to go against the court? Just you? A dismissed and investigated political participation, and a so-called descendant of a famous family?"

The young man's eyes flashed with haze, and then he smiled and said, "We have carefully studied Huitong Trading Bank. It has several key points. The biggest one is the royal money house. This is the place where their money is transferred. As long as the branches of these royal money houses are defeated, all the business of Huitong Trading Bank in Jiangnan will be in a desperate situation! As long as we delay him for half a month and assist other methods, Huitong Trading Bank will collapse within two months, and the court cannot save it!"

The woman looked unconcealed and said, "Just because of you? You are afraid you have forgotten what happened in the past few years?"

Jiangnan is also a place of storm. Since the "retreatment of the capital", the court has launched massacres, with people rolling in and countless people terrified.

The young man's face turned cold and said, "Those people were stupid before. Even though they knew that Jing Zheng was bloodthirsty, they had no politeness in their eyes, and they still wanted to use etiquette to force their advice! We are different. We are all ordinary people, thousands of people all over the world, without a trace, and there is no way to tell. What can Jing Zheng do? Can he kill all the scholars in the world? Or kill all the people in the world? Humph, this time, we must learn from his grandfather and hide in the palace honestly. If the world is still managed by us scholars, how can he sit in the Mingtang if he is a foolish monarch who cannot read big words?"

The woman frowned and looked at the middle-aged man. She saw that the former political actor smiled and calmly, and kept drinking tea quietly, turning a blind eye to her eyes.

The woman looked at the young man again, her mouth moved, and she didn't say anything.

She knew very well that since she had heard so much, she would definitely not be able to leave easily. At the same time, she also realized that these people would not be looking for her alone, and this matter would not be just a talk!

She thought of something, her eyes flashed for a moment, her expression was solemn, she leaned forward a little, and said, "What are your plans?"

The young man looked at the woman's expression and showed a bright smile on his face, saying, "There is nothing that cannot be said. We plan to attack the Royal Money House, today!"

The woman's eyes were full of vigilance. Since the young man told her this, it was obviously already started, and it didn't matter if she knew it.

The royal money house is the third-rank yamen of the court. The person in charge is Mr. Fu. The emperor is standing behind him. Who is the emperor now? Even the ancestral temple and country have been demolished. How could he ever give in to others? If you really want to force him to be impatient, I am afraid that another bloody storm will be another!

A woman who can become the head of the Chen family in her thirty years is naturally not an ordinary idiot. She quickly cared about it and said with a serious expression, "It's not difficult to not be able to produce salt for ten days and half a month... However, our Chen family will not participate in other things, and I have never met two of you today. In the future, the two of you will be successful, and you don't need to remember the civilian women and the Chen family. If you fail, I will not admit that you have been here today."

The middle-aged man paused the teacup in his hand, his eyes flashed with gloomy flash, and then he smiled calmly and said, "Just listen to Mrs.

The woman glanced at the two of them deeply, got up and left.

The young man looked at the woman's back and turned to look at the middle-aged man, saying, "Assists in politics..."

Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "Since Mrs. Chen said that, we must respect it. We will do what she said in the future and we will not be embarrassed."

The young man was a little reluctant and nodded, "Yes, I've recorded it."

The middle-aged man turned his teacup in his hand and said, "Are everything ready?"

A cold light thundered in the young man's eyes and said, "Yeah, it's already moving."

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, and a stern look appeared on his face, saying, "Okay! This time we must do something hidden, pick out all of us, and walk around when necessary, express loyalty. As long as we enter the North Korea again, everything else will be easy, and everything can be settled with power!"

The young man nodded solemnly and said, "Yes! This time, he will definitely be able to send the adults to the governor's office again!"

A middle-aged man raised a smile on his lips and drank the tea in his hand.

Just when middle-aged people were drinking tea, the governor of Jiang and Su were in chaos, and all kinds of civil servants, classics, and officials were in a hurry.

The left-ranking officer Xu Jie's house, a senator walked in and said in a panic: "Mr. Xu, it's not good. The canal transport fleet that transported official grains encountered heavy floods near Yangzhou and all capsized. Several subsequent fleets were trapped in some rivers and could not advance or retreat. There were a total of forty ships. The losses were not clear now, but they must be quite small!"

The canal ships are now customized, "six hundred materials", and one material is equivalent to one stone, which means that a ship transports grain of 600 stones, and forty ships is 24,000 stones!

This is not a small number, enough to alarm the government and the people!

Xu Jie frowned and said, "Have you sent someone to ease the quarantine? What do you say about the canal transportation? What else is there?"

The senator said with a grudge, "I don't know yet, it's just an emergency report. The tax silver escorted in various places should have arrived two days ago, but now only from Yingtian Prefecture. The other reasons have not been explained yet. The subordinate officials are asking about it. There are also tax grains from various places that have not been collected and have not been paid for a long time. It would be fine if these things happen a while ago. It's so concentrated. I'm afraid that the salary of the governor's yamen and officials at all levels will not be paid..."

Xu Jie raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it so serious?"

The senator smiled bitterly and said, "This year's tax revenue is already complicated and needs to be sorted out carefully. I don't know how many people delay the responsibility, and a large part of it has not been collected. Something happened to the official ship to the north. Before the court ordered it, we must fill these losses first. These are piled up together, I'm afraid that Lord Fang is already having a headache."

Xu Jie was silent for a moment and said, "I understand. I will go to the royal money house later to see if I can borrow some."

Xu Jie was born in the cabinet and was protected by the governor's yamen, so it was naturally not difficult to borrow some money to turn over.

The Senate was not surprised. This was not the first time he borrowed it. Just as he was about to speak, a chief outside rushed in and shouted: "Sir, it's a bad thing. Rumors appeared outside that the royal bank had no money to exchange for money. All the people and the big families were crazy and they were running around in money banks everywhere, and they all squeezed out the threshold!"
