At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 302 The money can make a ghost run the mill

The capital, He's house.

Several major shareholders of Caijiagou are getting together at this time.

He Sanshui's face was sallow at the moment, and he slumped on the chair, his face was full of frustration and listlessness.

These people had heard something before they came here, and they couldn't help whispering at this moment, discussing in low voices one by one.

"Brother He... I heard that the emperor sent the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet and the Minister of the Household Department to Yongping Mansion. Is it true?"

He Sanshui nodded bitterly, "It should be..."

"Is there no news from Qian'an?"

"There is no news yet, and it is possible..."

He Sanshui breathed a sigh of relief, and said weakly: "The worst case is, maybe...they can't send any news."

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this.

"Things can't be this bad, can they?"

"Could it be... just a routine inspection..."

"I've survived before, so there shouldn't be any problems this time, right?"

He Sanshui smiled wryly: "Everyone, don't take chances now."

"Then... what should I do?"

He Sanshui thought for a while, and said: "Through the matter now, this catastrophe cannot be avoided, only, only..."

"What's the only way? Brother He, don't be a fool!"

"The only way is to take out the money in your hand and buy off those elders in the court!"

"But... the chief minister of the cabinet and the minister of household affairs..."

He Sanshui looked at the crowd and said slowly: "As the saying goes, money can turn ghosts around. We all know how the stocks in our hands have risen. Since we can buy the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, why can't we buy them?" Hubu Shangshu? Everyone can clearly mark the price. If 100 million is not enough, I will pay 500 million! If 500 million is not enough, I will give 1000 million. I don’t believe it. There are things in this world that money can’t solve!”

Everyone, look at me and I look at you. Although they are reluctant to part with each other in their hearts, they also know that money and life can only be chosen one of two. If the money is gone, you can earn more. All gone!

He Sanshui continued: "My original intention of doing this is to leave a way out for us. After all, the cunning rabbit still has three caves. We have earned too much money, which has reached an appalling level. If we don't take Come out, how can I escape this calamity?"

Everyone was silent, and the hall fell into a deathly silence.

Finally, someone started to cry and couldn't help saying: "That dog emperor is simply unreasonable. He wants to start a new policy, and everyone follows him in a new policy, but now he is harming us like this. This is really... really... alas!"

He Sanshui waved his hand and said, "At this point, what's the use of talking about it? Now that life and death are at hand, we are no longer allowed to say such words to vent our anger."

Someone stood up and bowed to He Sanshui with a miserable face: "Brother He is right, I have 300 million shares in my hand, and I am willing to take them out, but I will send them at Brother He's order!"

"I have 500 million in my hand, as long as I can survive this catastrophe... Well, money is something outside of me after all."

Everyone had no choice but to take out the stocks in their hands. It doesn't matter how much these stocks are worth, and they can't cash them out in a short time. The fastest and most convenient way now is to send these stocks directly to the court In the hands of those old men.

He Sanshui nodded and said, "I'm going to look for Brother Tang now. He knows a lot of people, so he must have a way to sell these stocks. Let's go back and wait for the news!"

All the shareholders understood at this time that the money must not be kept, so they left without saying anything, with a heavy heart.

He Sanshui couldn't help sighing as he looked at the soon-to-be-empty lobby.

In fact, he didn't expect that he would come to this step.

At first, I just wanted to sell the mine and then buy stocks.

As a result, Tang Ziqing came to the door. After some lobbying, he realized that buying stocks was just a small business. If you want to make money, you have to sell stocks!

After Caijiagou Mining went public, its net worth doubled and doubled, and it made huge profits in just two months. Relying on the profits of the mines was a drop in the bucket, so they simply gave up mining and worked hard on accounts.

Afterwards, I realized that I was playing bigger and bigger. Looking at the countless wealth in my hands, I just realized that I was picking chestnuts from the fire... But now, I have no choice.

He closed his eyes a little tiredly, and after a while, opened them again, took a sip of tea slowly, then got up, and walked out of the lobby quickly.

"Prepare the sedan chair and go to Liushu Alley in the east of the city!"

It was already dark at this time, He Sanshui came to Liushu Alley in a sedan chair, and there was a sudden bang, as if stepping on a big hole, and he fell out of the sedan chair.

"what happened……"

He Sanshui covered his head and was about to curse when he saw a circle of people around him.

With the dim lights, it is obvious that these people are carrying knives in their hands, which makes people shudder.

"Hero...forgive me..."

He didn't even have time to think about why robbers suddenly appeared in the city.

"He Sanshui, right?"

"Yes Yes……"

"Come with us!"

"Go...where are you going?"

"Beizhen Prefecture Secretary, Zhao Prison!"

He Sanshui was startled, and slowly raised his head, the people in front of him... who else could it be if it wasn't Jin Yiwei?

"Forgive me, I... the villain has something to say!"

"What do you want to say, hurry up!"

He Sanshui gritted his teeth, and said, "My lord, I have 500 million shares of Caijiagou stock in my hand, and I am willing to honor..."

Snapped!
He Sanshui didn't finish his sentence, but felt his face was burning hot, a mouthful of old blood spewed out, and he still had two teeth.

The officer in front of him was holding the scabbard in his hand, with a few drops of blood on the scabbard, and was looking at him coldly.

"Bring them back to Zhao Prison and torture them!"

"Yes!"
-
Late at night, Qian'an County.

When Cao Nai and Jin Lian came to the county government office, they first ordered the prefect Chen Shiqing and the county magistrate Yang Guan to be tied up.

Yang Guan was so frightened that he was shaking like chaff, unable to speak a word.

Caijiagou is under the governance of Qian'an County, and if such a big incident happened, the county magistrate himself must be inseparable.

What's more, when he was in the mine, Steward Wang himself admitted that he took the money from others.

On the other hand, Chen Shiqing, the magistrate, was afraid, but he had seen the world after all, so he could at least deal with it calmly.

Jin Lian took the accompanying clerks to check the accounts, while Cao Nai came to the lobby to try the case overnight.

"Chen Shiqing, do you really not know about Caijiagou Mining?"

Chen Shiqing prostrated himself on the ground, and said with difficulty: "Your official, it's really, it's..."

Snapped!
Cao Nai threw down the gavel and said angrily, "What are you still hiding?"

Chen Shiqing sighed and said, "Your official knows."

"Tell me, what do you know?"

"These people are daring. The so-called mining industry is actually just pretending to be fake. Everything is fake. They want to use this to defraud money. I have seen the past and the present. I have heard that there are people who are so bold. It's just...just... Xiaguan is just a mere magistrate, what is it in front of such an intricate network of relationships? Back then, after learning what these people did, Xiaguan couldn't sleep all night, fearing that something would happen and disaster would happen, so he didn't dare to talk to them Being in the same boat and not daring to ask questions, the position of the magistrate is really like sitting on pins and needles, losing hair in handfuls!"

Cao Nai sneered angrily: "What's the use of the court wanting you, a magistrate, a trash!"

After Chen Shiqing heard this, he became impatient: "It's true that a lower official is a rich man, but he has one thing to say, and he can't vomit it quickly. In today's world, people like He Sanshui are very popular, surrounded by high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and they even call him brothers and sisters. Aren't people just in the capital, above the temple? If it wasn't for the protection of those high-ranking elders, how dare he be so presumptuous, and how dare he be so confident?"

"If we really want to discuss crimes, even if the civil and military people in this world line up from the capital to come to Yongping Mansion, they will not be able to get a lower official! The lower official is just a small magistrate. What is it? On the contrary, the subordinate officials have not been with them, and they have been loyal to their duties!"

Cao Nai said angrily, "Are you still making excuses? Since you know it's a scam, why don't you go to court and expose them?"

Chen Shiqing smiled instead: "Master Cao asked the subordinate officials to expose it? Sending the report up is not the same as sending it to He Sanshui. How many people have benefited from him? How many people have benefited from him? A man, his wealth and life depend on him, if he is a low-ranking official, he will either be dismissed from office or die in vain!"

"As the saying goes, cutting off a person's wealth is like killing one's parents. How many people in the court hold Caijiagou's stock in their hands, just rely on a magistrate in the lower official district. Do you dare to investigate? To put it bluntly, the lower official has his parents. Tang, with your wife and children by your side, do you have to hit an egg against a rock to prove your innocence with death?"

Cao Nai was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "So, are you reasonable?"

Chen Shiqing shook his head, and said: "Your official is only telling the truth. If Mr. Cao thinks that your official is dereliction of duty, then may I ask, as the chief assistant of the cabinet and the head of all officials, if such a thing happens in the court, is your dereliction of duty more important than yours?" How much more important is the official?"

Cao Nai blushed suddenly, and wanted to say that it was all the fault of the corrupt officials, that He Sanshui deserved to die, but after thinking about it carefully, what he said made sense.

This case involved too many ministers of the DPRK and China, and it was no longer something that a magistrate could intervene. As the chief assistant of the cabinet, he only discovered the problem today... No, the emperor found out that there was a problem and sent him to check it out.

From this point of view, Chen Shiqing was right, he, the chief minister of the cabinet, had indeed failed in his duty.

He let out a long sigh, and continued to ask: "How many people in this Yongping Mansion colluded with He Sanshui?"

Chen Shiqing thought for a while and said, "Officials, big and small, at least more than half, maybe even [-]% to [-]%."

Cao Nai asked again: "Do you understand the situation of these people?"

Chen Shiqing didn't even think about it, and replied: "The fellow acquaintances in the mansion, and then the officials of Xuezheng, Jizhang, military craftsman, post delivery, horse herdsman, river canal, ditch defense, patrol inspection, etc., who is related to He Sanshui?" Collusion, although the lower officials usually don't care about it, they are very clear in their hearts. There are also county magistrates and county magistrates in various counties, whoever gets close to them, the lower officials also know."

Cao Nai couldn't help cursing angrily again: "I only said I knew it now, which shows how cunning you are!"

Chen Shiqing simply acted like a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and didn't fight back.

Cao Nai thought for a while and said, "The old man wrote the memorandum all night, and it will be submitted directly to the imperial court tomorrow morning. Don't be idle, make a list, and grab people overnight, and you won't let anyone go."

Chen Shiqing nodded and said: "The list is ready-made. The question is who will execute it? Excuse me, I'm afraid that the third class guards here can't do their job anymore. Or they are obedient and obedient. As soon as the order was handed down, they went to inform."

Cao Nai said with a dark face, "You don't need to worry about this, Jin Yiwei is here, you bring out the list, and they will take people immediately."

Chen Shiqing thought for a while, and then said: "The lower officials saw in the daytime that there are not many Jinyiwei accompanying them, and I'm afraid they are not enough..."

"Why, do they still dare to resist?"

"It's... hard to say..."

At this time, Cao Nai finally understood the emperor's mood, why he would kill without mercy when dealing with the smuggling case in the south of the Yangtze River.

It seems that sometimes it is really difficult not to be serious!

"Jin Yiwei is not a good man and a faithful woman, don't worry, Commander Yuan has already told the old man before leaving, this case is too bad, and it may even destroy the new policy of the imperial court, so they will not show mercy Anyone who resists or disobeys will be killed without mercy!"

Chen Shiqing nodded suspiciously. He didn't believe that Jin Yiwei would really kill people wantonly, but it didn't look like he was bluffing.

Anyway, I just need to cooperate. Whether Jin Yiwei dares to arrest people or kill people has nothing to do with me.

That night, a large number of people and horses suddenly appeared in Qian'an County. For a while, dogs and dogs jumped around, and there were wailing sounds everywhere.

The quiet night became noisy, and gunshots were heard from time to time.

This means that someone attempted to resist and was executed on the spot.

In and out of the city, people were being arrested everywhere, and for a while, everyone was in danger.

In the early morning of the next day, according to preliminary statistics, hundreds of people have been arrested and are still going on.

Cao Nai finally understood a truth, whether it is the old system or the new policy, there is always only one reason for the court's problems, and that is people!

People's greed is endless. When a person gets benefits, he will not stop there, because he will always want to get more.

Just like He Sanshui, he only made money by mining at first, but later he felt that the profit of mining was too low, so he thought about going public. When the listing and selling stocks still could not satisfy their desire, they would use their own Advantage, grab more.

The matter has come to this point, there is nothing to say, the trial that should be tried, the sentence that should be sentenced.

As for saying that the law does not blame the public, hehe, it does not exist!
What the emperor hates the most is the words "the law does not punish the public". Nowadays, Cao Nai also has a deep understanding.

Breaking the law is breaking the law, who cares whether you are more or less.

If a person breaks the law, he will be sentenced, but if a group of people break the law, they will be fine?

What's the point!
Three days later, Jin Yiwei escorted a group of criminals and headed for the capital in mighty force.
