People in the Ming Dynasty are lawless

Chapter 282 Give a woman to the eunuch! In order to pay bribes, these businessmen will do anything they can!

The purpose of these businessmen is actually very obvious, and everyone knows what everyone is thinking.

In their eyes, just ordinary people are nothing.

Because even if the people are in a famine, they will not have the slightest impact.

But in the end I came back to that issue.

Now what everyone has to face is the siege of many upright ministers in the court.

There are many small private buyers who are eyeing it.

Just then a businessman stood up.

"Everyone, don't worry about the crisis in the court."

Everyone turned back to look at the businessman who spoke.

The businessman was about thirty years old, with a fair face and no beard, but he looked very energetic.

A businessman asked: "Do you have any evidence for saying this?"

"That's right! You can't say this out of thin air. Everyone is worried that they won't have time to listen to your nonsense."

Although the others didn't speak, that's what they meant in their eyes.

The businessman did not show anger on his face, but smiled: "I know everyone has no ill intentions and just hopes that business can be better."

"Yes, we don't have any ill intentions towards you personally, we just don't want anyone to talk nonsense."

The president of the Chamber of Commerce was on the side to smooth things over.

Business can grow only if everyone works together, so the president of the Chamber of Commerce is very smart.

The young businessman coughed and said: "I know that everyone here wants to do big business, and I think so too, so please rest assured that I will not fire cannons here unless I am absolutely sure.

Closer to home, the reason why I am so confident is because my people have bribed the personal eunuchs around His Majesty today! "

Many businessmen were surprised when these words came out.

The personal eunuchs next to the current emperor Hu Jiyou are said to be generals who once fought with the emperor.

After being seriously injured on the battlefield, his vital parts were injured, so he simply became a eunuch.

However, this eunuch saved Hu Jiyou's life, so he was very favored and had great power.

The key is that this person is very greedy and has a big appetite, so many people have fallen victim to him.

How dare this young businessman say such a thing.

The young businessman said without any nonsense: "We spent a lot of money to buy this eunuch this time.

We gave him 2,000 acres of good paddy fields, and he didn’t even have to manage them himself. We paid people to farm the fields for him, and all the income from selling the grains went to him. "

Everyone gasped.

Annan's land is not like the Ming Dynasty, where every inch of land is very valuable.

Taking out two thousand acres of land in one breath shows how confident these people are.

The key is that the eunuch doesn't need to spend a penny on his own, and he doesn't even have to worry about the grain harvest. He can just sit back and wait to receive the money.

Such bribery is indeed very costly.

Everyone here admires this young big spender.

The young businessman obviously hasn't finished speaking yet.

He continued: "The most important thing is that we have prepared two beauties from Champa for her!"

Ok?

When everyone heard about the two beauties, their faces showed shock and weirdness at the same time.

Eunuch!

Beauty!

These two words don't seem to go well together.

After all, he is a eunuch.

All the men present looked strange.

Many people even began to be unable to hold back the smiles on their faces.

"I asked you, what on earth do you think? Giving beautiful women to eunuchs, isn't that just mocking them? How can he not be angry?"

"Yes! It's really hard for me to imagine how powerless a eunuch would feel when faced with two beauties. If it were me, I would definitely go crazy."

"No! I have never heard that eunuchs like beautiful women. On the contrary, they hate these beautiful girls."

Everyone had a mocking look on their face.

Because it's hard to imagine what the eunuch would look like when facing a beautiful woman.

The young businessman did not look angry, but explained: "Everyone, you must know that the eunuch was a normal man before he became a eunuch.

It’s normal to have needs in that area. The key is that people are powerless but have the will! "

As soon as these words came out, many businessmen burst into laughter.

This is still true.

Although people are powerless, they have the will. This is a truth.

But it was so painful that the two beauties had to stay alone in the empty room every night.

After everyone laughed, we got back to business.

"Nowadays, the problems in the court will be easier to deal with if someone takes charge, but there is still a big problem that I'm afraid we can't solve." The president of the Chamber of Commerce has returned to his serious expression at this time. Everyone calmed down and listened to the Chamber of Commerce President speak.

“Nowadays, as our maritime trade with the Ming Dynasty is getting bigger and bigger, it has attracted the attention of many pirates.

Just what I know is that there are no less than three waves of pirates watching us.

Fortunately, every time we go out of the ship, the money we get is treasure banknotes. Even if the pirates get the treasure banknotes, they have no use.

However, it happens from time to time that our goods are robbed by them.

If this matter is not resolved, many businessmen may not dare to go to sea. "

When this question came up, many people had helpless expressions on their faces.

However, there are also businessmen who look very indifferent.

"Everyone, I'm afraid I have to talk to you about this matter." The businessman who stood up was wearing a blue robe.

Everyone looked at him.

Just listen to him say slowly: "We are worried about pirates on the sea, but the same is true in Ming Dynasty.

But just recently we received the latest news that the Ming Dynasty has organized a very powerful navy, led by the very famous commander Liang Guogong Lan Yu.

Although we have not yet seen how big their warships are, we have learned from the timber merchants who provided keels for their navy that the keels of their warships are tens of meters long. "

Everyone took a breath after hearing this.

How else to say that they have a great family and a great business?

The keel of the warship alone is dozens of meters long. You can imagine how big the warship must be. It must be a behemoth.

Thinking of this, many businessmen felt confident.

"Okay! If the Ming Dynasty can really crack down on pirates on the sea, it will be a great thing for those of us doing business."

"Isn't that right? Chen Zuyi on the sea has been the king and hegemon in the waters of Nanyang in recent years. Those of us who do business have been blackmailed by him. The property he has given to him in recent years has been enough for ten thousand taels of silver."

When Chen Zuyi was mentioned, many people had angry expressions on their faces.

It seems that he really suffered from Chen Zuyi's cowardice.

And now they heard that the Super League has organized a navy to attack Chen Zuyi, and of course they agreed with both hands.

They have long been fed up with the pirates on the sea, and now they have the navy of the Ming Dynasty to help them get rid of these dog thieves, which they can only hope for.

Everyone is quite satisfied at this point in the meeting.

Because they found that the two problems plaguing their family, one coming from the court and the other coming from pirates on the sea, seemed to have easy solutions.

……

In Annan's court.

Like the Ming Dynasty, their emperor also held morning court every once in a while.

The great eunuch accompanied Hu Jiya, the emperor of the Annan Hu Dynasty, preparing to go to court.

"Your Majesty, I have heard some bad noises outside recently." The eunuch spoke.

The relationship between Hu Jiyou and the eunuch is not only a master-servant relationship, but also a sympathy between comrades-in-arms.

You must know that Hu Jiyou was originally a general who became emperor in a coup, so he had a different emotion towards his comrades.

"Oh! Tell me, I also want to hear what the noise is outside?" Hu Jima asked.

"Your Majesty, a lot of private business recently involves purchasing grain and selling it to the Ming Dynasty. Do you know about this?" the eunuch asked.

Hu Jisao nodded: "This is a good thing. I heard that there is a shortage of food in the Ming Dynasty. Our food can be sold at several times the price, and the people will benefit a lot."

The big eunuch nodded: "Indeed, everyone said it was a good thing, but some officials who prided themselves on being clean stood up at this time, saying that the merchants had ulterior motives for purchasing grain."

Hu Jiya snorted: "What are your intentions?"

"It's nothing more than natural disasters or man-made disasters or something like that? Now all the food is being purchased and sold to the Ming Dynasty. Once we suffer a natural disaster, the people will have no food to eat.

The old slave had no other ideas, but according to the investigation of the people below, it was found that those who said these words were the remnants of the Chen Dynasty.

You were kind enough to take them in with the thought that they would be grateful, but it seems to have no effect now.

Not only are they not grateful to Your Majesty for your kindness, they are also spreading rumors that there will be disasters since you came to the throne.

Now they are taking the opportunity to persuade us not to engage in grain trading to spread rumors about the famine. "

Hu Jishen's face turned pale when he heard these words.

He is a very superstitious person.

Ever since he ascended the throne, he has tried to control speech.

He was originally the general of the Chen Dynasty. After usurping the throne, he originally wanted to gain a good reputation among the Qingliu ministers, so he kindly accepted many Qingliu ministers in the court.

But I didn't expect that those people would not give him face and spread rumors that disaster would happen after he ascended the throne. It was really unreasonable!

"Do you have a list of these people?" Hu Jima asked.

The chief eunuch listed them one by one.

These people are all relatively upright officials in the Hu Dynasty today, but without exception, they once served as officials in the Chen Dynasty, and they were relatively high-level officials.

Hu Jiyou didn't even think that these officials were actually doing it for the sake of the people. He only thought of one thing, and that was that these people couldn't understand that I was now the emperor.

I'm still thinking about the past in my heart.

He was furious: Okay! I keep you people with good intentions and hope that you people can sing praises to me. It would be better for you not to sing praises when you see such a good business. Instead, you spread the news everywhere that once the food is sold out, there will be a famine!
