The Most Powerful Man in the World

Hearing Han Tong's confident roar, especially clamoring for revenge for his dead son, that confident tone made Chu Yi a little curious.

What was it that made this man so confident that he could kill himself?

The butler, who finally got up, secretly glanced at Chu Yi who was not far away, just at this moment Chu Yi looked at them with great interest, but with just one glance, the butler fell to the ground again, crying: " Master, don't scold anymore, Butcher Chu... Butcher Chu has come!"

"What? Where is Butcher Chu? My master wants to smash his body into ten thousand pieces. I have only one son, Hui'er, under my knees. When Hui'er dies, my Han family will be gone. Under Jiuquan, what face does this old man have to see? Patriarchs!"

While speaking, Han Tong turned around and looked around, and saw Chu Yi and his party not far away at a glance. When he saw Chu Yi and others, Han Tong froze.

The soldiers who were full of killing energy were looking at him one by one with a strange look, and that strange look made Han Tong panic a little.

If Han Tong can't recognize Chu Yi at this moment, then he is really blind, especially when he sees the dozen or twenty literati who are in chains, Han Tong can't help it. With a flick of his body, he suddenly understood.

It turned out that Butcher Chu in the mouth of Shutong was not just a butcher who sold meat as he imagined, but the ruthless and murderous director of the East Factory, Chu Yi, Butcher Chu!

"God damn Han Xiaowu!"

Han Tong roared in his heart, this Han Xiaowu was not optimistic about Han Hui, but the result was unclear, causing him to run over to find Chu Yi desperately.

Especially when Chu Yi was staring at him at the moment, Han Tong only felt that his legs were weak, he couldn't help falling to his knees, and wailed: "Old Han Tong doesn't know what the governor is driving, so please ask the governor to have a lot of people at the collision place. Don't be as knowledgeable as an old man."

Chu Yi drove forward, looked down at Han Tong, who was lying on the ground, and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth: "Other than Mr. Han, if Chu has heard correctly, you seem to be seeking revenge on Chu!"

Han Tong almost cried when he heard it, and shook his head again and again: "No, no, the governor must have heard it wrong, even if he borrowed ten thousand courage from an old man, he would not dare to seek revenge for the governor!"

Chu Yi glanced at Han Tong lightly, and then his eyes fell on the housekeeper beside him: "Tell me, is your master going to seek revenge on Chu?"

The housekeeper trembled and glanced at Han Tong secretly. Although he said Han Tong's face full of pleading, how could the housekeeper dare to play tricks in front of Chu Yi? He's here to avenge my young master Han Hui."

Chu Yi raised his brows, and Shi Kui stepped forward and said: "Professor, among the dozen or so scholars who were killed earlier, there was indeed a person named Han Hui, and I think it was this old Han outsider. son!"

Although it has been confirmed that his only son was killed by Chu Yi, at this moment, after hearing Shi Kui's words, Han Tong still couldn't help but whisper, "My son..."

His eyes fell on Han Tong, and Chu Yi sighed: "It seems that Young Master Ling really died because of Chu, and your vein was cut off from you. If you think about it, you can't wait to smash Chu's corpse into thousands of pieces!"

Han Tong's fist lay on the ground, his fist clenched tightly, his nails dipped into the palm of his hand, his heart was pierced, and he kept telling himself not to get angry, he had to keep a useful body in order to report revenge in the future.

Taking a deep breath, Han Tong trembled: "Han Tong doesn't dare, it's all because the old man has no way to teach his son. The governor shot and killed this evil son, which can be regarded as clearing the door for the old man, and the old man is grateful."

Speaking of these words, Han Tong's heart bleeds. Facing the murderer who killed his only son, the murderer of his own family was in front of him, but he couldn't take revenge at all, especially when he wanted to flatter the other party, that kind of suffocation. Giving is not something that ordinary people can bear.

Looking at Han Tong, Chu Yi slapped the horse and passed by Han Tong, Han Tong's heart suddenly loosened, thinking that he had passed the disaster, but Chu Yi's indifferent voice came: "General Shi, since Mr. Han is outside the The father and son are deeply in love, then send the old man out on the road, don't make Han Gongzi wait for a long time!"

It would be fine if the other party rushed up and shouted and killed, but like Han Tong forbearance, if Chu Yi didn't cut the grass and root, who knows what kind of moths would come out in the future.

The hatred of killing his son, the hatred of the future, even if Chu Yi didn't need to think about it, Han Tong would never let it go.

Han Tong's body stiffened, and he suddenly got up. He didn't know where the strength came from, but he was like a ghost. He stretched out his withered claws and grabbed it towards Chu Yi. You have to die..."

"Bold!"

Shi Kui strode forward, grabbed Han Tong who was pounced on Chu Yi, and then slammed down to the ground. Han Tong was just an ordinary person. How could he withstand Shi Kui? He vomited blood on the spot. and die.

Seeing that the soldiers full of suffocation were leading the embarrassed soldiers away, the servants of the Han residence seemed to have walked away before the gate of hell. Everyone looked at each other, not even caring about the dead Han Pass, and immediately dispersed.

Chu Yi led a team of soldiers and escorted the literati back to the East Factory stronghold, while Shi Kui led his men to roar away. According to the list listed by Chu Yi, they raided their homes and destroyed their homes.

Fortunately, apart from the two special places of Wu Jingbo Mansion and Zhulin Book Club, the other powerful people selected by Chu Yi were not enough for Chu Yi to go out in person.

The city of Nanjing was suddenly plunged into a blood-colored terror. The name of Chu Yi can be said to have changed. I don’t know how many nobles and noble families hid in their homes on this day and shivered, lest the door will be knocked open by someone, and then closed. The family was taken away one by one, and their property was confiscated.

In the evening, because there were too many people arrested, the East Factory stronghold could no longer detain so many people. Chu Yi directly sent people out of the wallet and detained nearly [-] people in more than a dozen large courtyards around them.

Carloads of confiscated property, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, paintings, and other property directly filled several large houses. Not to mention the rest, the Hu family alone has not recovered tens of thousands of taels of gold and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. , other jade jewelry, add up to as many as millions.

In addition, there are dozens of shops of various kinds and thousands of acres of fertile land, which are of amazing value.

You must know that this is just the property of the Hu family in Nanjing City. As a family that has monopolized the Ming Dynasty’s salt industry for so many years, I am afraid that the wealth accumulated in the family’s ancestral land will be even more amazing. Wan's gold and silver Chu Yi will not find it strange.

Who does not know the huge profits of the salt industry, it would be really strange if the Hu family did not have millions of properties.

In addition to the property of the Hu family, what was truly astonishing was the property confiscated by Wu Jingbo's mansion.

Starting from Marquis Wujing, the Zhao family has been entrenched in Nanjing for decades, and the operation and sales of the salt industry in the south of the Yangtze River are controlled by the Marquis Wujing Mansion behind the scenes. One can imagine how much money the Marquis Wujing Mansion can save net worth.

Carloads of gold and silver were dug out from the secret treasury, and there were as many as two million taels of gold and silver. Similarly, the Marquis of Wujing’s mansion in Nanjing City also saved a huge family business, restaurants, teahouses, various The store and the thick stack of land deeds are worth at least three million taels of silver.

The rise of the Marquis of Wujing has been around for more than [-] years. In this way, in addition to the expenses, you can save [-] taels of silver every year. This seems scary, but the Marquis of Wujing controls the Jiangnan Salt Industry. If you look at it, you only save [-] taels of silver every year. I'm afraid that more will be used to manage the relationship between the upper and lower sides. Otherwise, it is not unusual to accumulate [-] million properties.

When night fell, the rampage was rampant, and the unscrupulous arrest and confiscated dozens of dignitaries, Shi Kui and his subordinates finally stopped, and the group of dignitaries who had been in a state of panic all day was a slight sigh of relief.

In a study room at the Dongchang base, Cao Shaoqin watched Chu Yi put down the thick accounting books that copied the property of each family, and said with a bit of joy on his face: "Professor, this time even if it is the people in the capital. What a commotion, with these tens of millions of taels of wealth, the Governor will definitely be honored and favored, Jane is in the heart of the emperor!"

[The second one is sent, the big guys have a wave of tickets and rewards! 】

Chapter 90 In front of Zhuma Gongfu

Chu Yi nodded slightly. As Cao Shaoqin said, he did make a lot of noise this time, but the people he killed were all people who deserved it. Even if the lawsuit was brought to the emperor, he could still produce conclusive evidence. .

Just the letters of the Hu clan and the letters found in Uncle Wu's mansion involved the corruption and perversion of the law, not to mention a mere uncle, even a prince or a minister, that would be enough to convict and beheaded.

What's more, the value of the gold and silver property that he has not copied this time is tens of millions. I am afraid that Zhu Houzhao will be shocked when he finds out.

You must know that the current annual taxation of the imperial court is only a few million taels of cash. Although Emperor Hongzhi left so much silver in the treasury, there is not much silver in the national treasury, not to mention the inner treasury of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, at the time of Zhu Houzhao, there was still a little bit of savings in the Daming royal inner vault, but Chu Yi estimated that the inner vault could have one hundred thousand taels of silver, which was already the limit. The naked ones in the inner library can almost run away from mice.

It is conceivable how amazing this tens of millions of taels of wealth is. There are not many people in this world who do not love money. Chu Yi does not believe that Zhu Houzhao is not willing to face tens of millions of gold and silver.

Noticing the change in Chu Yi's expression, Cao Shaoqin took out a small package from his arms, looking at the shape of the package, it seemed to be a scroll or something.

I just heard Cao Shaoqin say: "Master, this is a few volumes of books handwritten by sages and great scholars that the slaves found when they seized the Hu clan and Wu Jingbo's mansion, and they are specially dedicated to the master."

For those gold and silver, Chu Yi didn't take it to heart. At most, it was dedicated to the emperor to stabilize the emperor's favor for him. However, Chu Yi was quite concerned about the classics written by sages and great scholars.

After all, it's all about luck. Chu Yi doesn't know how much luck he needs to gather to break the barriers of the world and return to his previous world, but he just burned a hundred thousand luck before he came to bring this world. Knowing that if you want to go back, it is very likely that at least [-] luck will start to have hope.

However, he is now full of plans, and the accumulation of these years is only just over [-] luck.

Cao Shaoqin saw the joy in Chu Yi's eyes and immediately understood that the master from the family really valued these books, secretly remembered it in his heart, and carefully placed the package on the coffee table in front of Chu Yi.

When the package was opened, several thin booklets were neatly placed together, especially the yellowed paper, which showed that it had been some years.

As soon as he glanced at it, Chu Yi's eyes lit up. The top book turned out to be the book "Guide Book" handwritten by the great Confucian scholar Wen Tianxiang. On the yellowed pages, there were several powerful and upright spirits hitting his face. The big characters that came from it: I have a magnetic needle in my heart, and I will not stop unless I guide you.

Turning over the yellowed pages, the vigorous fonts, and the words and phrases that made one's blood boil, Chu Yi unknowingly finished reading them one by one, and sighed after a long sigh: "What a Wen Tianxiang, worthy of being one of the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty, A great sage who has been famous in history."

Slowly putting the "Guide Book" aside, it was another yellowed book, but Chu Yi only glanced at it and sighed in his heart. This is indeed the book of sages and great Confucians, but it is a pity that it is a copy of other people's works, and It's not the summary of what he has learned, but there is no response from the altar of luck between the pages.

There are nearly ten yellowed classics in the small package, each of which is genuine and from the hands of sages and great scholars. It is obvious that Cao Shaoqin has really put a lot of effort into it. It cost him a lot of money just to verify the authenticity of these classics. Great mind.

However, four of these nearly ten classics caused the shock of the altar of luck. As for the other books, it is not without harvest. At least they are the essence of the sages' thoughts, and they are all from the original author. Just luck.

Putting down a few books gently, Chu Yi glanced at Cao Shaoqin in admiration and said, "You have a heart!"

Having received a rare praise from Chu Yi, Cao Shaoqin said with a bit of joy on his face, "The Governor has praised me wrongly."

Nodding slightly, Chu Yi said to Cao Shaoqin: "You must pay close attention to the matter of copying those other people's properties. If someone dares to stretch out their hands indiscriminately, once the supervisor finds out, don't blame the supervisor for being ruthless."

Cao Shaoqin said with a straight face: "Don't worry, the governor, if someone dares to stretch out their hands, without the governor's initiative, our family will kill them!"

Glancing at Cao Shaoqin, Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "Get everything done as soon as possible, I'm afraid we won't have much time in Jiangnan!"

Cao Shaoqin knew in his heart that they had caused such a big turmoil in Jiangnan. Whether it was the minister of civil and military affairs above the court or the emperor Zhu Houzhao, I am afraid they would not dare to let Chu Yi kill such a big slaughter in Jiangnan.

Even if Master Chu Yi was famous and occupied the righteous name, no matter how much support and approval from the emperor's heart, he would definitely not be able to hold back the civil and military uproar of the whole dynasty.

Liu Jin, the knife specially sharpened by Zhu Houzhao, is now almost abolished. Even if it is to balance the situation between the DPRK and China, as long as Zhu Houzhao is not stupid, he will definitely call the famous Chu Yi back to the capital.

The next day, the sky was bright, and the huge city of Nanjing felt a bit desolate, but it was affected by the aftermath of Chu Yi's arrest yesterday and the disappearance of some powerful and noble families.

Chu Yi took Chu Fang and a few Dongchang fans along the long horse street. No one dared to look directly at Chu Yi and his party, even if the horse passed by and the figure was far away, those people would be straight. Looking at the secretly pointing, he didn't even dare to speak aloud.

In front of the gate of Duke Wei's mansion, Chu Yi and his party stood on the horse.

The two servants who were guarding the gate of Wei Guogong's mansion naturally knew Chu Yi. Seeing that Chu Yi and his party stopped in front of the mansion gate, their expressions changed greatly. One of them hurried to the mansion, while the other one was Carefully and even with a bit of awe, he walked down the steps and bowed respectfully at Chu Yi: "I have seen the Lord Governor, but I don't know the Lord Governor..."

Chu Yi said lightly: "Go to Tongbing and say that Chu has come to see the old man!"

The previous servant, named Xu Cheng, was the son of the Duke of Wei's mansion. He served the Duke of Wei's line from generation to generation. He was used to seeing all kinds of dignitaries, and he still had some determination, otherwise he would not have been assigned to guard the main gate.But at this moment, his expression was flustered. Thinking of the scene he saw and heard yesterday, Xu Cheng became more and more nervous.

That is the madman and butcher Chu Yi. Even the powerful and noble like Wu Jingbo have been raided by Chu Yi, and now Chu Yi has appeared in front of the Duke Wei's mansion. Could it be that Chu Yi is going to attack them?

With a thud, Xu Cheng fell to the ground, just at this moment, the young master Xu Pengju was walking by, and he recognized Xu Cheng at a glance, frowning when he saw Xu Cheng falling to the ground, and said, "Frightened, what a formality! "

Seeing Xu Pengju, Xu Cheng suddenly looked happy, and he got up and said to Xu Pengju: "Little Master, something is bad."

Xu Pengju stared at Xu Cheng. This is Nanjing City. Except for the emperor's visit, the Xu family is not afraid of anyone. Even if the emperor's imperial consignment arrives, they are not afraid of the Duke of Wei.

Glancing at Xu Cheng, he said, "What happened?"

Xu Cheng was stunned by Xu Pengju, and quickly said: "Little Master, Chu... the lunatic is outside the house!"

Stunned for a moment, Xu Pengjun's expression changed, "You mean the director of the East Factory, Chu Yi?"

Xu Cheng nodded again and again and said, "It's Chu Yi, Governor Chu, Young Master, don't you think he's..."

Although Xu Cheng did not continue to speak, he knew what he wanted to say from the look on his face, Xu Pengjun took a deep breath and shook his head and said, "My Duke of Wei, Xu's family, and Daming are resting together, there is no imperial decree, you think that he is the governor of the East Factory. Does the Lord dare to provoke our Duke Wei's mansion?"

【Ask for a ticket, give a reward】

Chapter 91 Long Street Ambushes

Xu Peng is full of confidence. It can be said that the Xu family is really sharing weal and woe with Daming. Unless the Xu family jumps out to rebel, even the emperor will not be detrimental to the government of Wei.

At this moment, the remaining servant came in a hurry, seeing Xu Pengju hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Little Master, Governor Chu Yi asks to see the old man!"

Xu Peng's heart moved, and he immediately understood that Chu Yi was only here because of the family raiding and genocide that happened in Nanjing City yesterday.

After all, the Duke of Wei's mansion is in Nanjing, and it was the old Duke Xu Kuo who suppressed the Quartet, which prevented the chaos in the city of Nanjing because of Chu Yi's reckless actions. Chu Yi killed and arrested, and everything ended. When he came to the Duke of Wei's mansion for a while and thanked Xu Tuo, it would seem that Chu Yi was too rude.

Guessing the intention of Chu Yi's visit, Xu Peng raised his voice and said, "Xu Cheng, go to Grandpa Tongbing, Xu Wu, follow me to greet this Governor Chu!"

A burst of footsteps came, Chu Yi looked sideways, and saw Xu Peng walking quickly with a smile on his face, before the person arrived, the laughter already came: "I thought I was a distinguished guest, it turned out to be Chu The Governor is coming, and Pengju has lost his way to welcome him, so please forgive me!"

Turning over and dismounting, Chu Yi strode forward and smiled at Xu Peng: "Young Master is really polite. It was Chu who came to disturb him. Don't take offense to Young Master and the old man!"

Xu Pengju led Chu Yi into the mansion quite intimately and said, "Grandpa rested a little late yesterday, and now he's up now, so please follow me to the living room, I have ordered someone to inform Grandpa!"

Chu Yi said: "I didn't think about it, but it disturbed the rest of my husband, sin, sin!"

Xu Pengju is worthy of being the heir chosen by the Duke of Wei Xu Chu. Although Xu Chu always said that Xu Pengju is far worse than Chu Yi, it can be seen from the way he treats people and things, his words and deeds that it is not the case that the Duke of Wei Xu Chu chose Xu Pengju as the next generation of Duke Wei. It doesn't make sense.

In the living room, the host and guests were seated, and a maid stepped forward to serve tea. Xu Pengju sat aside to accompany Chu Yi to talk, and laughed heartily from time to time.

A burst of footsteps came from outside the living room, and I saw the old and strong Xu Chu step into the living room, and said with a smile: "I have made the supervisor wait for a long time, please forgive me!"

Chu Yi got up and greeted him: "The old prince worked hard for the country. The little prince said that the old prince only rested very late yesterday, and Chu came to disturb him this morning, but it was Chu who was wrong."
