Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 1040: Profit comes first
The rain was still falling in Xuzhou, but the sky in Nanjing, across the river, was clear.

Nanjing City.

The Xijishi Factory’s headquarters.

"Boss, we have found a group of people who spread rumors in the Xuzhou area." Gao Shiming said in a low voice with a serious expression as he looked at Fang Zhenghua who was leaning on the official chair.

"Let us guess."

Fang Zhenghua lifted his robe and said, "Among the people we have identified, some are remnants of various factions, right?"

"That's a good idea, Mr. Factory."

Gao Shiming bowed his head and said, "When the procuratorate sent people to arrest these people, even though our Western Factory and other officials participated, some of them still got the news and escaped."

"However, during the incident in Xuzhou this time, a group of people were found in Huai'an, Lujiang and other places before. Even in Huguang and other places, a group of people were found when there were some riots."

"That's all I can do."

Fang Zhenghua snorted coldly, "We don't have any eggs, but we do things that require eggs. But they obviously have eggs, but they do things that don't require eggs. These clowns, we will catch them all sooner or later!!"

Gao Shiming was very clear about what Fang Zhenghua meant.

I'm not talking about what we have found out now, but those who are hiding in the dark and adding fuel to the flames.

In the southeastern provinces over the years, whether it was the Western Investigation Bureau, the Integrity Bureau, or the former army that fought against the Japanese pirates, too many people have been arrested.

The turmoil of the past disappeared over time.

But it wasn't over yet.

The southeastern provinces today seem to be in a stable state, but in fact there are undercurrents.

On the one hand, this is related to the trial implementation of various new policies.

On the one hand, this is related to the elimination of all central parties.

On the one hand, this is closely related to the situation in Southeast Asia.

It is precisely for this reason that the Western Investigation Factory led by Fang Zhenghua has not left Nanzhili until now, in order to continue tracking down the forces behind the scenes.

As of now, except for the Inner Factory which is still in the capital, the other forces of the Ming Dynasty's imperial guards are all outside. The Embroidered Uniform Guard has flourished in various places, the Eastern Investigation Factory is still in Dongfan, and the Western Investigation Factory is in Nanjing.

However, Zhu Youxiao no longer attaches great importance to the Eastern Jishi Factory.

Without him.

The continuously changing situation in Nanyang caused many of the people in the Dongjishichang to rot. When Wei Zhongxian returned to Beijing, those who were still reliable would return with him, and those who had rotted would remain in Dongfan and Nanyang. Zhu Youxiao had a firm attitude towards this group of people.

That is to get rid of it.

The ones in charge of this matter are the Dragon Guards that have been developing in secret. Today, the Dragon Guards are not only involved in the grasslands, Korea, the Western Regions and other places, but also in Dongfan, Luzon, Central and South China and other places. This emerging force is still in a period of rapid expansion, and the responsibilities it shoulders are very important.

The Luanwei were mainly active in the Ming Dynasty.

What the Ming Dynasty lacks the least is talent, but what it lacks is opportunities for promotion, especially for ordinary people. Once there is a chance to change their fate, they will fight for it with their lives!
Zhu Youxiao opened up many promotion channels, either openly or secretly, which also enabled the mature system to expand according to his will!

As for what problems will be exposed later, that is something to be considered later. Right now, we must try to remove all the obstacles in front of us one by one.

"How's the investigation going on?"

Fang Zhenghua patted the python robe he was wearing, reached out to pick up the teacup, looked at Gao Shiming and said, "Qian Qianyi has been in contact with the two forces in private. Li Ruolian's Luanwei has not yet found out. My Xijishichang must hurry up on this matter." "Not much effect."

Gao Shiming said with some shame.

As the forces active on the secret front increase, Zhu Youxiao pays great attention to competition. Only by maintaining a healthy competitive relationship can he stimulate them.

This is also why the forces of Luanwei, Xijishichang, Longwei and others expanded so quickly.

Because whoever makes contributions can increase his status in the emperor's heart.

It was in this way that the power of the Jinyiwei began to sink from the center to the local areas. The key point was that the underlying color had changed.

Luo Sigong, Luo Yangxing, Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun competed with each other, which led to the rapid expansion of the Jinyiwei's power in the local area, and also laid the groundwork for the future reorganization of the nature of the police.

In Zhu Youxiao's opinion, the Jinyiwei had been exposed too much, and it was obviously not in line with the facts for them to continue to work on the secret front.

However, the Jinyiwei was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Simply and roughly abolishing it would not be good for the imperial power. But reorganizing it into a police force would be a different matter.

It is precisely because of this that, over the years, those who were disabled on the battlefield have been given a place to settle down. They are absolutely loyal to the imperial power.

It was because of their existence that Luo Sigong, Tian Ergeng and others fought with each other, but did not make the Jinyiwei a mess.

"We know this matter is difficult. You have to be patient and not be impatient. Just investigate it slowly." Fang Zhenghua was not in the mood to drink tea. He put down the teacup and said to Gao Shiming.

"We always feel that these two forces are not simple. If we can dig them out, maybe the things that have been bothering us before can be solved."

"Don't worry, Mr. Factory, we will investigate this matter seriously."

Gao Shiming immediately expressed his opinion.

"Ah."

Fang Zhenghua nodded in response, then extended his hand to Gao Shiming and said, "Send the names of those found to the governor's offices in Fengyang, Yingtian, etc., and also send a copy to Qi Jin."

"My West Police Investigation Bureau will not be involved in this arrest."

"Recently, we found in Nanjing that many people seem to be eyeing the Xijishi Factory. This may be related to the business opened in Songjiang."

"Are you talking about stocks?"

Gao Shiming said with some surprise.

"Yes."

Fang Zhenghua nodded and said, "Your Majesty is indeed far-sighted. He knew long ago that there was a group of hidden factions in the southeastern provinces, and some of them were involved in money."

"At least this year, our Xijishi Factory has to keep a low profile. After all, we still have to follow orders to acquire Dutch stocks over there."

"it is good."

Gao Shiming nodded in response.

In fact, Gao Shiming had doubts in his heart. The businesses established in Songjiang and Xin'an had stocks for sale, so why did his own emperor ask them to be responsible for purchasing the stocks of the Dutch East India Company? The company's stocks had been plummeting in recent times.

But Gao Shiming had no idea that this was just an appearance.

Even though the Ming Dynasty has set foot in Southeast Asia, the power of the Western barbarians is still very strong in this region. The Netherlands, which seems to be inferior to Spain and Portugal, has become increasingly powerful recently. Zhu Youxiao will not let go of any windfall he can make, because in the past two years, the Netherlands will cause a shock, but it will also make a group of people rich. What Zhu Youxiao has to do now is to intercept this wealth!
