"Your Highness, gentlemen, do you still remember the Quanzhou incident?" Cai Wanyi glanced at the people in the hall and said, "Pu Shougeng is a big businessman on the sea, and he was entrusted by the imperial court with the important task of presiding over the Shipping Department. He is deeply
The emperor's favor should have resulted in death. However, for his own selfish interests, he colluded with the Tatars to rebel, assassinated the king, and slaughtered all three thousand eldest sons. There are also many unscrupulous businessmen in Guangzhou who do not hesitate to secretly seek benefits.
The Tatars not only trade with each other to provide financial support for them, but also lead them to betray the country and seek wealth. If they are not attacked, it will be a disaster in the future."
"Learning from the past, we have to be careful. As far as the Sa family knows, Pu Shougeng's family was originally a big businessman in Guangzhou. They operated here for several generations before moving to Quanzhou. There are still a lot of stranded clan members, and there are still thieves in Guangzhou.
They must take care of each other's property, otherwise the past will inevitably happen again." Zhao Mengjin also stood up and said.
"Well, what the two adults said is true. We must take precautions and control others first. At this time, we should make a decisive decision and take action as soon as possible!" Gao Yingsong also agreed.
"Okay, let's follow His Highness's plan to clear out the rebels and collect their property." Ying Jieyan said firmly, "Your Highness, I think we should be cautious about this matter to avoid causing turmoil, which is not good. I wonder what your Highness has to say?" He knew that Your Highness
Now that he has spoken out, he has definitely not been thinking about it for a day or two because of his temperament. He must have a clue. And what he said was asking, but in fact, he was telling His Highness that everyone has been spared by you at this moment. Just tell him what to do. Don't hold back.
Hold your fist and let everyone guess!
"Sir, what everyone said is true. I also have some concerns, so I would like to ask you for more details." Zhao Bing rolled his eyes at Ying Jieyan and said, "It's enough if you know it. Why should you be so straightforward?" Next, he will share his thoughts one by one.
.His plan is mainly divided into three steps:
First, arrest those who colluded with the Mongols to present the city and those who participated in the planning and provided assistance, and punished for treason. Former Guangzhou officials who held false posts during the Mongolian rule of Guangzhou and accepted their honors will be punished for treason. Anyone involved in the above two
Regardless of the severity of the crime, all those found guilty will be put to death, their property will be confiscated, and their family members will be appointed officials. This is intended to eliminate evil, deter unstable elements, and make rebels aware of the consequences.
Secondly, during the fall of Guangzhou City, those who donated military supplies to the enemy and assisted them in raising food and wages will be punished as collaborators. This can be divided into three levels: those who take the initiative will be severely punished, those who comply will be severely punished, and those who accept coercion will be reprimanded. In addition, Hong Kong and China will be punished
Caravans must also be screened. All ships and cargoes owned by or serving the enemy will be confiscated and the personnel sent into the army. Foreign caravans engaged in normal trade are allowed to operate and protected, and they are not allowed to harass or make things difficult for them.
Furthermore, those who assisted the army to regain the city of Guangzhou and those who financed the resistance to the Mongols will be commended and awarded honorary titles as appropriate. Those who are willing to join the commander's army must actively accept and be given equal treatment. They will be given food, leather, copper, iron, medicinal materials, and cloth.
The price must be fair and should not be less than 90% of the real value. At the same time, we must search for talented people and scholars, and recruit and appoint those who are willing to join the government. We must invest in recruiting craftsmen, doctors and other skilled people as well as people who are willing to go to Qiongzhou to increase the population.
, enhance strength...
"What do you think, all the ministers, do you think of this king's proposal?" Zhao Bing asked after taking a sip of tea. He secretly wondered why he had become so 'evil'. He was just trying to raise some capital to escape, but because of this thought
How many heads fell to the ground, how many families were destroyed, and what I did seemed to be at ease. Could this be a side effect of time travel?
"I think it is feasible. It can eliminate evil and maintain the stability of the city, and it can also raise money for the government and the future. It is a three-pronged thing." Gao Yingsong first agreed. In his heart, His Highness is just a child and cannot be like this.
To be able to think so comprehensively in such a short period of time must have been Ying Jie Yan's idea. He just said it through His Highness's mouth, so there is no objection.
"Your Highness is wise and should put to death all those traitors who collaborate with the enemy. However, Your Highness is still soft-hearted. The Yisa family should kill the nine clans in order to eliminate the hatred in their hearts. It is a pity that the Liang thief and Zhao Ruogang who colluded with the Tatars escaped, otherwise
He will be chopped up alive!" Zhao Mengjin raised his hands to welcome him, but he felt a little regretful that His Highness had not finished the rape.
"This Zhao Ruogang is really abominable. As a county official, he opened the city gates when the enemy was besieging the city, causing the fall of Guangzhou. Then he accepted a fake official position but did not go to the post. He relied on the power of the Tatars to plunder and extort merchants, only to
In less than a month, he made a fortune of tens of millions, and before the city was breached, he even fled with several carts of property. Those corrupt officials also attacked him in the name of paying tribute and raising wages for the Tatars, causing unspeakable suffering for the people and merchants," Jiang Guan said angrily.
, of course also agreed with His Highness’s proposal.
"I also think that what His Highness said is appropriate."
"I respectfully follow His Highness's instructions." Pan Fang and Cai Wanyi also expressed their agreement to His Highness's proposal.
"Since everyone has no objections, we should follow His Highness's wishes and take action as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams and another trouble." Ying Jieyan could not think of a more effective method than Zhao Bing, and at present, the government's food and salary would be exhausted, so he could only
In this way, we first took advantage of the urgent need. Then everyone discussed again according to His Highness's proposal, assigned the responsibilities of each department, and formulated an action plan. They also dispatched various armies to strengthen vigilance, and deployed soldiers to cooperate in arrests and house searches.
"Wang De, why are you laughing so much? Is there anything wrong?" Ever since everyone agreed on the plan to raise money from local tycoons, Wang De, who was standing next to Zhao Bing, has been laughing. If he were not a eunuch, he would have laughed.
He wondered if he was a nymphomaniac. Seeing Wang De's smile getting more and more terrifying, he couldn't help but ask.
"Your Highness, this will make life in the mansion much better, and Your Highness will not have to scrimp on food and clothing and worry about money." Wang De said with a smile.
"Oh, what's the significance of this?" Zhao Bing was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that there must be some secret in it.
"Your Highness, according to regulations, confiscation of an official's property requires the confiscation of property. Now His Majesty doesn't know where he is, so he can only enter our palace." Wang De said softly.
"Is there such a thing?" Zhao Bing said in surprise. He was worried that all future expenses would have to be raised through setting up a company. This was open and transparent. The inner government didn't even have a small treasury, which meant that he had to escape.
Money is not guaranteed, how can I not be excited when I hear it.
"Your Highness, what the official said is true. The confiscated official property can be transferred to the inner palace for expenses. Although it is a bit inappropriate to do so now, but in emergencies, there is no need to worry so much. Your Highness does not need to eat dried fish and white rice every day.
It's over." Ying Jieyan heard the whispers of their master and servant, and saw that His Highness really didn't know, so he explained to him.
"Haha, the relationship is so good. I wonder if the items in the government office were also confiscated? They are worth a lot of money." Zhao Bing rubbed the chair under his buttocks and said with greed evident in his words, completely ignoring everyone's surprise.
