The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 359 Mr. Ye has tens of thousands of private soldiers. Just wait and see with Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor in the eyes of the local officials has changed!

"You, why are you like a dog, turning your back whenever you want?"

"We ask questions and you answer them, isn't that enough?"

"Why do you have to say something hurtful?"

"You are the Master of Juren. Have all your sages' books been read into the dog's belly?"

"."

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he was giving Ye Qing a rhetorical education.

At the same time, he also made a vicious note to Ye Qing in his heart, saying that it is a crime of disrespect for those who don't know to be guilty and useless!

Ye Qing felt very relieved when he looked at Mr. Guo, who was blushing and thick-necked due to his anger.

He was defeated in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and his family, so naturally he had to take out his anger on the man in front of him, Mr. Guo, who was actually Zhu Yuanzhang's henchman!

Ye Qing just smiled lightly and said: "Logically speaking, I should arrest you and beat you up for the crime of disrespect, but out of the love between you and me, I still spare you this beating. "

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to laugh very much. Ye Qing wanted to punish Zhu Yuanzhang for the crime of disrespect?

Is this an attempt to rebel against God?

Of course, it is not impossible for him to use this as an excuse to punish Mr. Guo.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless, Ye Qing said with a smile: "Okay, I will talk nicely. I will make you feel that if you ask such a question, your mother-in-law has beaten your brains out."

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became too excited about gambling. He immediately clasped his fists fiercely and said, "Then, please give me some advice, Mr. Ye!"

"But if you say that you can't do it, I don't think that if you ask such a question, you will be beaten stupid by our mother-in-law, and you have to apologize to me!"

Ye Qing nodded and said: "Deal."

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, Ye Qing turned around decisively as soon as he finished speaking, only to face the surging Yellow River, the river embankment projects that were being carried out in an orderly manner, and so many other projects that were actively under construction. Disaster victims.

Ye Qing pointed to the energetic victims and said, "Look at them, not only are they already strong, but they can also carry heavy loads."

"Thinking back to when I first came to take charge of disaster relief, and when you first came here, could they be so capable of carrying and carrying people?"

Zhu Yuanzhang recalled what Ye Qing said and realized that the gap between the victims of the disaster at that time and the victims of the disaster now was not very big.

At that time, their homes were destroyed, and they were thankful to have a shed to shelter from the wind and rain, a piece of cloth to cover their shame, and a bowl of porridge to survive.

You can’t even burn a body that is unclaimed after it dies!

The living people can’t wait to sell themselves to bury their parents!

Under those circumstances, how could they, who were skinny and skinny, be as capable as they are now?

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking like this, Ye Qing patted him on the shoulder again and said: "Old Guo, to save people, you must first save the emergency and then the poor."

“If you want to use work as a relief, you must first give them the strength to work.”

"That's why after raising them for so long, I started using work as a source of relief and teaching people how to fish."

"Yes, it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. But when faced with these victims who know nothing and are about to starve to death, if you don't teach them to fish first, you won't even have the chance to teach them to fish."

"This is such a simple truth!"

Having said this, Ye Qing looked at Mr. Guo in front of him and said with great interest: "Speak for yourself, how could you, a great imperial businessman who had served as His Majesty's personal soldier and a general in Yanmen County, ask such a question? Simple question?"

"I told you that your mother-in-law knocked you out of your mind, just because I was joking!"

"How about you tell me honestly now that my brain has not been beaten stupid by my mother-in-law."

"As long as you say it, then I will only say that you are a real fool!"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his voice in one breath, but the thousands of words he originally wanted to say could not be said when he reached his mouth.

How can I say this?

It is simply a small loss if you remain silent, but a big loss if you quibble a little!

And at this moment,

When Ye Qing saw that Mr. Guo had chosen to acquiesce, he immediately put on an unreasonable face.

He patted Mr. Guo's shoulder in front of him rhythmically, and said with earnest words: "Old Guo, my eloquence is a result of practice."

"If you want to be serious with me, you still have hundreds of years to go!"

"Also, as for whether my book has been read into the dog's belly, my words will not count. You have to go back and ask His Majesty the Emperor."

"I think, in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor, I am already the combined existence of Jieyuan, Huiyuan, and Number One Scholar."

"It's called winning three yuan in a row, right?"

"Yes, it means winning three yuan in a row. If I am not talented enough to win three yuan in a row in your majesty's eyes, how could he not let the saint Kong in the court serve as an imperial envoy, but instead let me, a local official thousands of miles away, come all the way? Are you here to be an imperial envoy?"

"Do you think this is true?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook it off all of a sudden and patted his shoulder rhythmically.

He blushed, pointed at Ye Qing and said: "You, you"

But he's been bothering you for a long time, but you still can't come up with a reason. You even thought in your mind, "I actually think it's fucking reasonable?" '

A few days later,

The matters of money and grain transportation and project coordination have been taken care of, and the remaining things are just a matter of time.

It stands to reason that Mr. Guo and his wife, who have not found a business, have no reason to stay. In fact, it is indeed time for Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife to go back.

But they had no intention of looking for an opportunity to escape. If they hadn't seen Zhu Biao's secret urging letter, they would have really wanted to stay a few more days.

Somehow, they just felt that hanging out with Ye Qing was far more comfortable than being the emperor and queen in the court.

Even though he followed Ye Qing, Zhu Yuanzhang's blood would surge from time to time, and his eyes would even be filled with bloodshot eyes.

Outside the south gate of Zhengzhou City, Ye Qing personally sent them to the official road.

Although Ye Qing knew that they were actually Zhu Yuanzhang's special imperial envoys sent to watch over him, the feelings of having fought together could not be faked.

No matter whether Ye Qing is true or false in their couple's hearts, in Ye Qing's heart, it can never be false.

There is no other reason,

Just because although he, Ye Qing, wore the skin of a civil servant in the Ming Dynasty, he was still a true 'Chinese veteran' in his heart!

Since you are a soldier, you should value the comradeship, especially the comradeship among those who have fought together!

Although he has been angry with Mr. Guo for a long time, he always does one thing according to his stance!

He is not here to see off the actual 'exclusive imperial envoy', but to see off his former comrades!

"Go back early. We have a big family and a big business. Don't hang around outside all the time."

"Be careful if you stay outside for too long, the shopkeeper will take away all your family property."

Zhu Yuanzhang just smiled faintly. He was now looking forward to the stars and the moon, hoping that his little shopkeeper would take away his family business.

As long as the little shopkeeper has this intention, he is willing to personally put on the little shopkeeper's twelve-chapter black dress for the enthronement ceremony.

It's a pity that the little shopkeeper is useless!

You've only been your home for a few days, and you're telling him that you're sick and urging him to go back quickly?

After he went back, he had to punish the little shopkeeper who made fun of his own body just to be lazy!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang just looked slightly disappointed and said: "It would be great if he has the courage."

"What did you say?"

Ye Qing asked in surprise.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled hurriedly and said: "I mean, I understand that he is not so brave."

"Brother Ye, see you later!"

Ye Qing also cupped his fists and said, "Brother Guo, see you later."

"Tell your majesty that I, Ye Qing, am willing to admit defeat. Since he agreed to these four conditions, I will finish my job before leaving."

"As for the future!"

Having said this, Ye Qing squinted his eyes and smiled again: "Then let's ride on the donkey and read the songbook. Let's go and see!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Qing who looked like he was being beaten. He originally wanted to have a harmonious relationship. No, now it seems that it is completely unnecessary.

He just snorted coldly and simply closed the car curtain.

At the same time, he also simply ordered: "Go away quickly, I am tired of looking at him!"

Within a moment, they disappeared from Ye Qing's sight.

inside the carriage,

Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who was about to explode with anger and said, "Okay, don't be angry."

"I always feel that there is no need to keep people around to watch his next disaster relief work. He is a person who does what he says."

Zhu Yuanzhang, however, disapproved and said: "We can rest assured if two plainclothes guards are left to hold him. Didn't you hear what he said to us in the end?"

"He said he wanted to ride a donkey with us and read the songbook and we'll see!"

"What?"

"Do you want to see if we kill him or if he pisses us off?"

"We just can't figure it out. Even if he has a heart of stone, we should warm him up!"

"."

Empress Ma didn't interrupt at all. She waited until Zhu Yuanzhang finished complaining before she began to comfort Zhu Yuanzhang.

After comforting him, they began to say and do things that made Mao Xiang, the coachman, feel full.

Time flies, fleeting.

Time soon came to March of the next year, which was March of Yangchun in the ninth year of Hongwu.

Ye Qing stayed in Zhengzhou for almost half a year. During this six months, he effectively presided over emergency disaster relief and rebuilt the homes of the victims.

What he has done for Zhengzhou is far more than that.

As long as the dam project he presided over was not damaged by humans, it would last for hundreds of years, if not hundreds of years, at least for a hundred years.

During this period, Yanmen County's industrial technology backbone went south to Zhengzhou and Kaifeng to preside over the construction of industrial parks.

Except for necessary skilled workers, all other workers will be given priority to disaster victims.

While building the industrial park, he also presided over the recruitment of male and female employees and taught production techniques so that when the industrial park was completed, they could start work quickly.

During this spring plowing season, he also arranged spring plowing tools and seedlings for the victims. It can be said that farming and work are guaranteed.

Finally, in March, when everything is recovering, the victims have happy smiles on their faces again.

In the temporary office study room of the commercial bank, Ye Qing looked at the various reports and nodded with satisfaction.

He just looked in the direction of Ying Tian Mansion and thought to himself: "My pervertedly kind and merciful Emperor, I, Ye Qing, have done what I said."

"Next, let's really ride on the donkey and read the songbook, we'll see!"

"You forced me, I will make you embarrassed and embarrassed everywhere!"

Thinking of this, he began to work hard again and started on the last thing.

That is to design and build the "Zhongyuan Arsenal" to manufacture weapons and equipment for the "Zhengzhou Industrial Park Armed Security Force" and the "Kaifeng Industrial Park Armed Security Force" that are about to be built.

A month later, two armed security teams with a strength of one guard (5600 people) were recruited and trained by Yanmen elite generals.

At the same time, the construction of the 'Zhongyuan Arsenal' has also begun.

The rest will fall into place with the passage of time!

Ye Qing, who thought he had accomplished everything, immediately wrote a memorial and had it sent to the capital as quickly as possible.

The content of the memorial is very simple, just saying: "The matter is done, and I am too lazy to meet you to deliver my order, so I returned to Ningbo." '

the next morning,

The two plainclothes guards left behind by Zhu Yuanzhang blended into the crowd and gathered at the gate of the trading house.

Finally, the door of the trading house opened.

Ye Qing, dressed in plain clothes, accompanied by Shen Waner and two exclusive maids, expressed his gratitude to the local businessman who lent him the business house as he walked.

Although the other party is asking for something from you, it is still necessary to express gratitude.

Apart from bullying the useless Zhu Yuanzhang, he still doesn't like bullying others very much!

"When you come to see me from now on, you don't need to queue up and go through the back door."

The big businessman immediately smiled and said: "Then thank you Master Ye. I will become a rich and benevolent righteous businessman."

"These days, I have truly gotten to know Mr. Ye, and I truly understand why His Majesty values ​​Mr. Ye so much."

"Master Ye serves the country and the people, so respectable!"

Ye Qing just smiled and waved his hand. He was not interested in such words at all, but he still felt very relieved.

Finally, Ye Qing crossed the threshold of the trading house.

Seeing this scene, he immediately looked back at the big businessman and said seriously: "Did you arrange it?"

"They're blocking my way, do you know that?"

The big businessman quickly explained: "Sir, they are grateful for your good governance for half a year. They all knew that you were leaving and came spontaneously."

But at the same time, he also thought to himself: "The reason for being angry is that it's blocking your way?"

At this very moment,

The Zhengzhou officials who had been waiting for a long time and had not been caught for corruption, as well as the newly recruited Zhengzhou officials, all knelt down.

At the same time, so many people gathered around them, and they consciously dispersed to get out of the way. Then they knelt down and wiped tears from their eyes.

"My lord, we will not stand in your way."

"Sir, we just want to give you a lift."

"Woo."

In Ye Qing's eyes, the eyes of the old and young men were red, but the girls and women were crying.

Among the crowd, there were two plainclothes guards kneeling on the ground. Looking at this scene, they also had a lot of opinions about the emperor.

"Your Majesty, you are judging a gentleman with a villain's heart!"

The two of them said secretly at the same time.

While the two were thinking like this, Ye Qing just sighed helplessly, and then walked to a place where everyone could see.

He looked at the officials kneeling on the ground and said: "The imperial court's salary is low. As long as you don't cause trouble to the two industrial parks, I will let them give you some money to supplement your family income."

"Remember, as long as you do practical things and make enough money to supplement your family income, it's okay."

"However, corruption and disaster relief are absolutely not allowed to do things that are difficult for the country to make money!"

"You all know how tragically Che Ming, the previous Zhengzhou magistrate, died!"

As soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, so many officials in Zhengzhou all kowtowed and thanked him: "We will definitely listen to Mr. Ye, and we will only follow Mr. Ye's lead!"

The two plainclothes guards looked at this scene and their eyes immediately lit up.

In their opinion, such a scene must be reported to His Majesty the Emperor!
