Chapter 622 The Gentlemen of Fuzhou

Chapter 622 The Gentlemen of Fuzhou
In late November of the ninth year of Hongde, Shen Yi personally supervised and beheaded the last batch of Japanese prisoners.

So far, the more than 1000 Japanese pirates he brought to Fuzhou were killed by the anti-Japanese army one by one.

The blue bricks near the big banyan tree in Fuzhou city were dyed red.

Shen Yi personally threw down the last command arrow and beheaded the remaining 30 Japanese pirates on the field.

After killing the last thirty Japanese pirates, Shen Yi posted a notice on the big banyan tree.

Once the matter of communication with the Japanese is discovered, it is the same crime as the Japanese pirates.

These more than 1000 people were killed in Fuzhou for more than half a month.

At this time, the residents near the big banyan tree had already started to spread some eerie ghost stories, saying that they heard people talking Japanese on the street in the middle of the night.

The common people in the vicinity have already discussed that after the officials and soldiers of the imperial court leave, they will find some monks and priests to come over and do a deed to dispel the resentment of these Japanese pirates.

And after Master Shen supervised the last scene, he was ready to leave Fuzhou.

Because the end of the year was approaching, he was going back to Jiankang to report to the big boss in the palace.

So far, although he has not finished his work in Fujian, he has left a lot of threads, and the finishing work will be much easier.

For example, regarding the rectification of officialdom in Fujian.

If Cheng Tingzhi can take the position of the chief constitutional officer in Fujian next year, then he will definitely start to rectify the officialdom in Fujian. At that time, those officials who are not clear with the local gentry, or to put it more bluntly, will have nothing to do with Cheng Tingzhi Fujian officials will all be purged for bribery.

As for taking over the property of the Fuzhou gentry...

Shen Yi is already making arrangements for this.

After Xu Fu left Jiankang, his first stop was Fuzhou. At the beginning, he mainly sold tea in Fujian, and he also had some business foundation in Fujian. However, Xu Fu is still in Jiankang now, and with those Franji and the others were thinking about going to the West together, and they could only return to Fuzhou after he finished his work there, and handle the properties of these gentry for Shen Yi.

But Shen Yi has already laid the foundation for him.

After Xu Fu returned to Fuzhou, it can be said that there was basically no difficulty in taking over these industries.

As for the next step, the political direction of Fujian Province will go in the end. The final decision is in the hands of the big boss of Jiankang.

However, judging from Shen Yi's understanding of the emperor, as long as Cheng Tingzhi didn't show his hips too much after arriving in Jiankang, then the bold emperor would most likely agree with him.

Of course, although the little emperor dares to do some bold things, he often keeps some backup hands in his own hands. For example, although he delegated power to Shen Yi to build an anti-Japanese army, he sent Du Huai and others He came down and took over the financial power of the Anti-Japanese Army.

It can be regarded as a heavy supervision for Shen Yi.

If Cheng Tingzhi becomes the governor of Fujian next year, he will probably have such a heavy supervision by his side, watching over this bold Fujian chief envoy for the emperor.

After noon, Shen Yi left the beheading place. He was about to find a place to eat when he saw a woman in a light blue jacket standing not far from the place, quietly Looking at Shen Yi.

It's Ye Chan.

Master Shen thought for a while before realizing that he and Miss Ye still had something to talk about.

Ever since, Shen Yi asked Jiang Sheng to find a roadside tavern, and he invited Miss Ye to the tavern and sat down face to face.

After ordering, Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, looked at Ye Chan, and asked, "Miss Ye, I have a lot of things to do during this time, so I didn't rush you, have you discussed it with the fifteen families? After I return to Jiankang, I can report to the Holy Majesty how much money I am willing to spend, so that the Holy Majesty can make decisions on all matters in Fujian."

Ye Chan was sitting opposite Shen Yi, she clenched the teacup nervously, then looked up at Shen Yi, took a deep breath, and after doing a lot of mental construction, she said with some difficulty: "Master Imperial Envoy, Our fifteen families sat together and discussed for many days..."

"I also quarreled for many days."

She stretched out five fingers, and then looked up at Shen Yi's expression: "This number is the limit we can give. If there is more, the business of each family will not be able to continue..."

Shen Yi frowned: "After discussing for so many days, is it still [-]%?"

"Then why are you discussing it? Isn't [-]% the amount given by Miss Ye at the beginning?"

Ye Chan shook her head slightly.

"Master Imperial Envoy, it's not [-]%, it's..."

She spoke slowly.

"Fifty-five percent."

This is an obvious trick of being cautious.

First give Shen Yi an ambiguous answer, then look at Shen Yi's reaction, and then give a specific answer.

If Shen Yi is satisfied with [-]%, then Ye Chan will definitely not mention the remaining [-]%.

Miss Ye took a deep breath, lowered her head and said, "This is the maximum amount we can give..."

Shen Yi snorted.

Just this slight "hum" made Ye Chan's heart beat violently.

is scared.

During this period of time, Shen Yi had left a deep psychological shadow on her, which made her a little afraid of Shen Yi from the bottom of her heart.

"You don't need to talk about this kind of scene."

Master Shen's face was calm: "I have gone to see the property confiscated by the Tan family and the Feng family. Don't say take [-]% or [-]% of yours, but take [-]% or even [-]%. The rest is still enough for your family. Those people eat."

"It's just a question of how much you're willing to spit out."

Master Shen stretched his waist, and said lazily: "You say that [-]% is [-]%, and [-]% is [-]%. I will report this amount to the Holy Majesty, and see how the Holy Majesty decides."

Ye Chan felt a little nervous in her heart, she also stood up, bowed her head deeply to Shen Yi and said, "Master Shen, we..."

"All right."

Shen Yi waved his hand at her, and said: "There is no need to say more, I have the confessions of each of your families, and this year will be the end. Next year, can your families spend their money and eliminate the disaster..."

"Just look at next year."

"correct…"

Shen Yi suddenly remembered something, he looked at Ye Chan, and asked slowly: "When I first arrived in Fuzhou, I was also here to supervise and kill the first batch of Japanese pirates. At that time, there was a commotion in the crowd, and then it became quiet again. ..."

"A few days ago, I heard that the riot at that time was because someone hired them to go to the execution ground to make trouble when the Japanese pirates were beheaded, and went up to shout at brothers and uncles..."

When Shen Yi was beheaded for the first time, before the butcher's knife fell, there was indeed a moment of chaos among the onlookers. (mentioned earlier)
Shen Yi didn't care at that time.

It was only later that he found out that someone had hired a group of people to make trouble, preparing to go to the execution ground to recognize relatives.

If someone really made such a fuss, they would be blatantly slapping the anti-Japanese army in the face, accusing the anti-Japanese army of "catching the good and pretending to be Japanese"!
This is no different from killing the good and pretending to be meritorious.

Speaking of this, Master Shen paused, and continued: "However, before these people made trouble, their employers canceled their actions, so they rioted for a while."

He looked at Ye Chan and asked, "These people should have been arranged by you local gentry."

"I'm curious why you guys stopped halfway."

Ye Chan lowered her head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with me, but I do know that at that time they thought that there should be [-]% or even half of the Han people among the Japanese pirates..."

"If half of the Han people openly go up and make trouble, the matter will be settled, but..."

Ye Chan looked at Shen Yi, and said softly: "But the Japanese pirates in the court that day, almost [-]% of them are Japanese..."

"They have no choice but to inform those people to stop."

"I see."

Shen Yi smiled.He opened his mouth and said: "There are still smart people among the nobles in Fuzhou. If there were more than a dozen Han people in the court at that time, if you make a scene, it will really not end well."

After saying this, Shen Yi stood up directly, and smiled slightly at Ye Chan: "I still have things to do, so I won't eat this meal with Miss Ye."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yi got up and left.

Ye Chan looked at Shen Yi, and then asked, "Master Shen is leaving Fuzhou?"

"Leave tomorrow."

Master Shen didn't even turn his head, his tone was flat but free and easy.

"See you later."
