Chapter 373 Restart Sapphire
Opportunity, God-sent opportunity!
The difference from the others is that when Lan Yu heard the news, she was taken aback for a moment at first, and then she was so excited that she almost jumped up.

This is the chance God gave him.

Although Lan Yu's days recently seemed to be quite comfortable, but after a long time, she gradually figured it out in her heart.

Although His Highness Taisun trusted him, the surrender of military power meant that it would be very difficult to go to the battlefield in the future.

It is basically impossible to command hundreds of thousands of troops to fight like before.

This made Sapphire drink away his worries for a while, but there was nothing he could do.

However, as soon as this matter happened, Lan Yu immediately realized that her chance had come.

Not long after, Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, Zhang Yi, the Marquis of Heshou, Zhu Shou, the Marquis of Gejia, Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan, and He Rong, the Marquis of Dongguan, came one after another.

Not without surprise, everyone's eyes glowed.

Cao Zhen said excitedly, "Brother, our chance has come."

Lan Yu had calmed down at this moment, she nodded with a smile and said, "It's good to just stay in peace, it won't take long, there will be news from the palace."

Hearing what Lan Yu said, everyone who was still a little apprehensive became even more excited.

In fact, since the Taisun was officially conferred, the honorable generals of Huaixi in the Sapphire family seem to have risen in status, but in fact they know it hard.

Not only Sapphire, but the military power in the hands of other honorable generals was also weakened invisibly.

A large number of elite soldiers were directly taken away and entered the control of Taisun Xuanjiawei, which greatly reduced their strength.

And many elite soldiers from Xuanjiawei also interspersed among their soldiers.

These soldiers, who had the aura similar to Taisun's disciples, made them start to become restrained.

You must know that from the Xuanjia Guard to the guard, the last time is at the level of a hundred households, which can easily become a hindrance.

It can be said that the military power of the generals in Huaixi is being eroded by the grandson little by little, and there is nothing they can do.

In another three to five years, no need to think too much, everyone will be excluded.

The so-called emperor and courtier.

The credit they have made is to Daming and His Majesty, but not to the grandson.

But now, the opportunity has come.

There are rumors everywhere, don't think too much, His Majesty will be furious.

As the saying goes, people do not fight with officials.

All this directly touched Taisun, and the consequences can be imagined.

In the law of the Ming Dynasty, there are heinous crimes.

One of the crimes is gross disrespect.

The bloody wind is just around the corner.

Lan Yu really wanted to 'thank' those who spread rumors, it was they who gave them the opportunity to make great contributions.

Sure enough, not long after Lan Yu and the others discussed, an eunuch came outside the door.

"Her Majesty's order is to call Liang Guo Gong Lanyu into the palace to have an audience!"

"The minister obeys the order."

After receiving the order, Lan Yu stood up with a happy face.

In the court.

The pressure came to Jin Yiwei.

There is still a big difference between the current Jinyiwei and the Jinyiwei rebuilt by Zhu Di in history.

Nowadays, Jin Yiwei's responsibilities are mostly in the capital city, and it is their duty to supervise all officials.

In other places, although they have the right to act, the number of people is not large, and it has not spread significantly.

These things are not in the open, but in the dark, what is needed is to inquire about information like Jin Yiwei.

After some discussions between Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather and grandson.

A decree was issued.

"The Department of Public Security of Jinyi Weilian performs the duties of monitoring the world, and sets up guards in various places in Daming. The internal funds are responsible for the necessary expenses."

Finally came to this step ahead of schedule.

Originally, in Zhu Ying's mind, veterans and local public security stations were gradually used to gradually replace the duties of Jin Yiwei in various places.

In the current situation, Jin Yiwei and the Public Security Bureau can only do it together.

When it comes to inquiring about intelligence, those rough men in the army can't do such a delicate job. Jin Yiwei, who has been familiar with this way all year round, is the best candidate.

Jiang Yu was ecstatic. This meant that Jin Yiwei's power would not be limited to the capital in the future, but would radiate the world.

"Is it really the Shanxi merchants who are behind the scenes?"

In Kunning Palace, Zhu Ying asked coldly.

Ye Yueqing nodded, expressing her determination.

As soon as the rumor spread, everyone in the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, whether they were in the capital or in various places, began to use their own resources to vigorously search for the source.

Now the members of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, who would not know that the boss of their own chamber of commerce is His Royal Highness Taisun and the future Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

When this kind of thing happened, there was no need to wait for the order from the capital, and the search began spontaneously with all its strength.

This news was originally disseminated through the channel of the business gang. At present, the Qunying Chamber of Commerce has opened many small chambers of commerce to inquire about the news.

After tracing back to the source, it was soon discovered that all these news mainly came from Jindi.

The Jin land of the Ming Dynasty refers to the Shanxi area.

Knowing that Shanxi merchants did the thing, Zhu Ying was not surprised.

Shanxi and Shanxi are adjacent to each other, so there is no need to think about it. The Shaanxi rebels must have a very close collusion with the Shanxi merchants.

As the Qunying Chamber of Commerce carries the power of the government, to some extent, this is the collusion between the government and the business recognized by the court.

How powerful will a chamber of commerce become with the help of the government?

In today's Ming Dynasty, the power of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce has expanded faster than all businessmen imagined.

Especially for all kinds of transactions, the Qunying Chamber of Commerce has no taboos and participates in all of them.

The most important thing is that the convenience of the official post station makes the transportation price of the goods extremely low. Therefore, the goods bought and sold by the Qunying Chamber of Commerce are often much lower than other chambers of commerce.

Under such introversion, many chambers of commerce can only follow the price cuts, resulting in lower profits.

Not to mention those merchants who are hoarding their goods.

For example, there is a shortage of grain in a certain place in the northwest, and merchants drive up the price of grain. However, within half a month, a large amount of goods from the Qunying Chamber of Commerce will arrive.

Selling cheap grain, that is a steady supply of grain.

Those profiteers who hoarded a lot of food wanted to take advantage of it to make a fortune, but the one who lost was called a loser.

This kind of thing happened all over the Ming Dynasty. Because of the heavy purchase, the transportation of food became cheaper, and there were many small famines, and there would be no large-scale starvation.

And when the local government has no money to buy food, the Qunying Chamber of Commerce can also provide interest-free loans to the government to tide over the difficulties.

Even more because the Qunying Chamber of Commerce is under Taisun's command and has a semi-official background, even if some local governors want to have other careful ideas, they dare not actually implement them. They can only deal with the famine obediently.

With the widespread spread of sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other crops, it is obvious that for a long period of time in the future, there will be no serious food shortage in Ming Dynasty.

Then the overall food price is showing signs of a steady decline, and it is difficult to increase.

This is Zhu Ying's current approach to managing business through business, which has a remarkable effect in this era.

This is why the Shaanxi region, which only rebelled 30 years after Hongwu in history, started rebelling five years earlier.

Because if you don't, you won't have a chance.

When the common people can eat and drink enough, who will follow you to rebel.

No matter how deceptive your White Lotus Sect is, and everyone's wives and children are hot on the bed, who the hell will go with you to do the job of putting your head on your waistband.

Shanxi merchants have a strong background.

The Mengyuan Rebellion made the entire Ming Dynasty a barren scene, but the Shanxi merchants who had been dealing with the grassland for a long time did not suffer much impact.

In the century of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, it was divided into various grades.

The Han people are also divided into northerners and southerners.

Most of the Han people who were hit hard were Southern Han people.

These Shanxi merchants are growing day by day.

Although not as powerful as the Eight Great Imperial Merchants during the Manchu Qing Dynasty, overall, financial resources are on the rise. Many Shanxi merchants became rich as the Mongols entered the Central Plains.

"We are in the Chamber of Commerce in Jindi, but there is news."

Zhu Ying thought for a moment and asked.

Ye Yueqing shook his head and said: "There are letters from all over the place, but there is no news from Jin, not only the branch of the Chamber of Commerce, but also other small chambers of commerce, and there is no news."

The meaning of these words is obvious. Shanxi merchants unite to almost wipe out all other chambers of commerce.

It can be seen that among them, all the network resources accumulated over the years have all exploded.

Even the chiefs of the Jin government were lured with benefits.

Shaanxi is reversed. Judging from this situation, Shanxi will soon link up.

"It seems that there are some people who eat hard but not soft."

Zhu Ying said coldly.

He has been trying his best to avoid large-scale bloodshed, because in Zhu Ying's view, every Ming citizen is extremely precious.

However, some people, even though they hold Daming household registration, do not feel that they are Daming people from the bottom of their hearts.

That being the case, why is there any need to talk about being kind?

Violence is not the best method, but it is the quickest and most effective way to solve things.

Just at this time, the officials came to report: "Lan Yu, the Duke of Liang, asks to see him."

It's just in time.

Zhu Ying said: "Call."

Soon, Lan Yu, dressed as a general, entered the palace.

"Chen Lanyu, I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Grandson."

Lan Yu's expression was solemn and resolute, and she even knelt down on one knee and clasped her fists in a salute with military etiquette.

"Duke Liang, please stand up." Zhu Ying raised her hand and said.

Sapphire stood up respectfully.

"Duke Liang should know about the rumors from the outside world." Zhu Ying asked lightly.
