The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 161 He is actually the Marquis of Zhongshan! Boil the salt or die!

Liujia Town, salt field.

Zong Yue and other officials from the Transportation Department were escorted here by Zuo Yidao and his four guards.

When they walked into the salt field, they were frightened by the scene in front of them.

They saw densely packed and countless Zaohu Yanding, staring at them fiercely.

These Zaohu salt cubs are all the same black and thin, and the same rags, like beggars, with no human shape visible.

But the vicious looks in their eyes at this moment made every Transportation Department official feel uncomfortable.

"Take your men and boil the salt immediately!"

On that visit to the salt field, Zong Yue clearly remembered that these Zaohu saltmen were as thin as they are now.

After Ye Qi's reform, the imperial court changed the Kaizhong of grain payment into the Kaizhong of silver payment. After that, merchants only needed to pay silver to the Department of Transportation to the Ministry of Household Affairs to get salt. Then they could go to the salt field to collect salt and buy salt directly with silver. Then the maneuverability here will be great!

After all, such large-scale protest riots would have been suppressed and beheaded in the past!

"Waiting for the other two Tianjin guards to send out troops?"

Needless to say, Zong Yue immediately understood the identity of the person in front of him!

Xu Jin, the former Minister of War, now the Minister of War, the Grand Sima in charge of the military affairs of the world!

This Zhongshan Marquis is far more ferocious and terrifying than the rumors say...

Zuo Yidao was a little anxious when he saw this. He didn't want to kill like this!

In the presence of so many kitchen households and salt men, how could the Ming court still have any prestige if it killed important officials of the third rank?

Hearing this, Zong Yue's face turned pale and he subconsciously looked at Tang Hao.

Tang Hao picked up Zong Yue and wiped the blood on him.

Before he finished speaking, a clear slap sounded.

"Marquis Zhongshan, as long as you ask, I am willing to divide some benefits and deliver them to the Marquis's house on time..."

"impossible!"

"Xu Jin!" Chang Kuohai spoke concisely and directly gave the answer.

"Oh, that's right, that's Xu Jin. At that time, he was still the Minister of War and the Admiral in charge of the regiment!"

The self-proclaimed Lord Zong prefers to recite poems and write poems, which is arty and elegant. He has no leisure to come to this filthy and dirty place.

"He is the Marquis of Zhongshan in the Ming Dynasty. Do you want to die?"

This extremely terrifying and bloody scene scared all the officials of the Transportation Department to scream strangely. Some people started retching, and some even had inexplicable liquid flowing out from between their buttocks.

"Spare your life!"

In the face of absolute force, he was just a pampered scholar-official. Not to mention the amazing Tang Ritian, even Tang Mu could easily restrain him.

"Killing you like this is really too cheap for you!"

What is the relationship between Zaohu Yanding and you, Marquis of Zhongshan?

The latter sentence is purely a warning.

"Yeah, absolutely impossible!"

This time, he, Zong Yue, was being escorted here. Even though he was not shackled, Zong Yue felt uncomfortable all over when faced with the dense and malicious gazes, and he wished he could die immediately!

This choice is not difficult to make.

"From now on, one person must boil a pot of salt. If you can't cook it before dawn, behead!"

On his first day here, the Salt Road censor came to inspect this filthy place with great fanfare, as if others didn't know that he was honest and conscientious. However, after the dinner, this censor, who spoke of the righteousness of his family and country, He accepted 10,000 taels of silver from Zong Yue without even saying a word of rejection!

It was also from that time that Zong Yue understood a truth.

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense!" Tang Hao waved his hand nonchalantly, "Come here, send these Yunsi adults to reform!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

"Are you waiting?"

"May I ask the Marquis of Zhongshan why he called us here?"

Tang Hao looked at Zong Yue, who was trembling all over.

Chang Kuohai stood there, and Zuo Yidao immediately felt the deadly dangerous aura. If he dared to move, the end might be tragic.

Wang Wenqing didn't notice Tang Hao's self-promotion at all, nor did he notice Zong Yue's increasingly darker complexion. He kept shouting: "Your Majesty, you must be aware of this! This guy must be a bandit from other states. A lawless traitor!"

Isn't this purely humiliating and disgusting people?

These officials in the Transportation Department were all serious Jinshis, and the worst ones were also Jinshis. They had read poetry and books since childhood but did not work in the kitchen. They had to hold out their hands for food and open their mouths. How could they have ever done such a lowly job?

"Tang Hao!" Wang Wenqing said angrily: "We scholar-bureaucrats enjoy the title of imperial court, how dare you humiliate us like this?"

Not surprisingly, everyone is a "smart guy."

"Or...die now!"

When Zuo Yidao heard these secrets, his scalp was numb with shock.

"No!" Tang Hao turned sideways expressionlessly, "I can't bear your gift!"

"The affairs of the Transportation Department are busy, and they are related to the interests of the salt administration of the country. If the Marquis of Zhongshan has no other important matters, can I... leave?"

Tang Hao leaned down and looked at Zong Yue with a joking look on his face.

Zong Yue was so frightened that he almost cried. He rolled and crawled towards the stove nearby.

A famous scholar and doctor spoke with a very firm attitude and fierce words.

The latter stepped forward very wisely, and then knelt down directly in front of Tang Hao.

"Lord Zong, do you want to make a bet? Do the two guards dare to send troops?"

"Very good!" Tang Hao smiled and stretched out his hand, wiped it on his face, and then nodded with satisfaction.

However, now that his life is in someone else's hands, he can only hope that the commanders of the other two guards in Tianjin can come to the rescue in time. Otherwise, if he falls into the hands of this crazy and reckless man, he may be in a dilemma of life and death!

After getting the accurate answer, Tang Hao no longer had any psychological burden on killing Chen Xiong's family.

By controlling water transportation and then controlling the salt field, the Pingjiang Mansion has really made a lot of money over the years!

"I am guilty of humble duty. Please spare my life, Lord Marquis!"

The threat of death is extremely strong.

Tang Hao strode towards the wailing Zong Yue, then grabbed his neck and lifted him up from the ground.

"Master Hou Ming Jian!"

Yumu chuckled and comforted, "Speaking of which, this scene seems familiar!"

Chen Bao trembled when he heard this, suppressed the fear in his heart, gritted his teeth and nodded.

How cruel!

"Boil the salt!"

"I've wanted to try it for a long time!"

"What exactly do you want to do?"

The Saltworks Transportation Department is related to the interests of salt administration!

Zong Yue asked bravely, his heart in his throat.

Zong Yue still roared unwillingly: "You dare to touch everyone's interests, you are secluded from the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty!"

Just when Zong Yue was about to be strangled to death, Tang Hao suddenly chuckled and threw him to the ground.

Tang Hao was too lazy to talk nonsense. He walked up to Wang Wenqing and punched his head into his stomach. In an instant, blood spurted out, turning Tang Hao into a bloody man.

He is really a complete madman!

"You are finally here, my lord!"

The newly born Marquis of Zhongshan in the Ming Dynasty, Tang Hao, a reckless man who kills without blinking an eye!

Damn it, why did this God of Killing suddenly take care of the affairs of the Saltworks Yunsi?

Zong Yue took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He was thinking about wording strategies and wanted to preserve the dignity of a scholar-official.

Therefore, this is the reason why Yunsi is corrupt and why the court knew about it but never investigated it!

"Are the other two commanders from Pingjiang's Mansion?" Tang Hao didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

Tang Hao stretched out his hand, pressed Wang Wenqing's body with one hand, and grasped his hair with the other. He pulled out the head and spine from the stomach, and then threw it into the formation of Yunsi officials, which frightened these officials. They cried for father and mother and ran away in panic.

The Saltworks Yunsi has become so corrupt, doesn't Emperor Hongzhi know about it, and don't the Manchu ministers know about it?

They didn't know how the government would react.

The latter was like a drowning fish at the moment, breathing wildly and heavily.

But someone just didn't let him get what he wanted.

"If it is not cooked when the time is up, I will kill someone!"

He has roughly understood the methods of this Zhongshan Marquis!

Don't forget, this time the Marquis of Zhongshan went out to the capital to suppress Japanese invaders, he brought with him 10,000 elite soldiers and 3,440 guardsmen!

"Tang Hao!"

Therefore, in the past, the high-spirited new scholar who longed to serve the country and the people has become a corrupt and bribe-taking Master of Transport!

Now, you, Tang Hao, want to investigate and influence the interests of various forces on your own. You, the Marquis of Zhongshan... why?

Even Emperor Hongzhi didn't dare to investigate, and would rather hide in the palace and be a fool. You Tang Hao are just a Zhongshan Marquis, even if there is a little emperor standing behind you, so what?

"Well... let me guess, you are wondering whether I dare to touch you, right?"

However, he wanted to step forward to stop him, but was stopped by Tang Mu and Chang Kuohai.

He actually wanted to ask Tang Hao about his purpose. You were ordered to go to the coastal areas of Beidusi to exterminate the Japanese pirates, so why don't you just go and exterminate the Japanese pirates?

Why do you have to go to such trouble and meddle in these nosy things here?

"Zong Yue, the envoy of Changlu Yun Division, has met the Marquis of Zhongshan!"

Tang Hao pinched Zong Yue's neck and watched as his veins popped out and he couldn't breathe. Then he sneered and said: "How? Mr. Zong, do you think I dare to take action?"

"Alright, alright, the Marquis will not act without aim."

This sudden change frightened all the officials of the Transportation Department, their expressions changed wildly, and they kept retreating, fearing that they would be next.

Of course they know, and they understand it better than anyone else!

So why does the court continue to tolerate it?

They carefully enriched the Nine-Side Strategy, but in the end it became a tool for the imperial court to take the lead in seeking profits, and for officials and gentry to collectively seek profits!

"How about it? Do you want to call me a troublesome man again? Do you want to kill my head again?"

"This salt farm benefit is not for me alone!"

The Yunsi gentlemen were all dumbfounded, and Zong Yue also looked at Tang Hao in disbelief.

Seeing that someone from the government finally came, Zaohu Yanding suddenly felt a little restless.

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar!

"If your Excellency takes him down for torture, maybe..."

Zong Yue has been a transportation envoy for the city for ten years, but he has only visited such a dirty place like the salt farm.

Zong Yue slapped Wang Wenqing hard on the face and shouted viciously: "You idiot, why don't you shut up!"

This Zhongshan Hou is a madman!

Zong Yue struggled wildly, unable to beat Tang Hao, but it was of no use.

"Silly man, who was the last person who was taught such a lesson by the Marquis?"

Zong Yue trembled when he heard this and lowered his head silently.

Zong Yue kicked this trash away, then stepped forward, forced a smile, and bowed to Tang Hao.

"Master Hou, I choose boiled salt!"

"Lord Judge, your master is here!"

Seeing this guy's arrogant look, Tang Hao felt a little funny for a moment.

Upon hearing this, Zong Yue's expression suddenly froze, and he was so embarrassed that he felt ashamed.

Looking at Wang Wenqing's non-human body and his dead head, no one dared to say anything anymore.

However, that time, he, the Transport Envoy, came in a sedan, and the two sides around him were full of people kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to him. He was so disgusted that he did not even lift the curtain, lest he be exposed to the filth. His body was dirty with anger.

At this moment, Zong Yue was really scared.

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Hao kicked him violently, kicking the third-grade capital transporter three meters away, and hit him heavily on the ground, wailing uncontrollably.

"The riot in the salt field was all planned by this thief!"

As soon as Wang Wenqing saw Zong Yue, he felt like he had seen a savior, and immediately stepped forward and hugged his leg.

"As an official of the Transportation Department, I, Zong Yue, should understand people's livelihood and be familiar with boiling salt!"

"Spare my life...spare my life..."

But he clearly remembered that when he came to the salt field that time, he was accompanied by the salt road censor who came to patrol, but he was just pretending and going through the motions.

Zong Yue suddenly discovered that he seemed to have not reached the end of the road yet!

As long as the Marquis of Zhongshan can talk and is willing to accept money, or wait until Tianjin Wei comes to help, then he can make a comeback and even bite the Marquis of Zhongshan!

Therefore, Master Du Yunshi also straightened his back, looked at Tang Hao with a calm expression, and lowered his voice to give his chips.

Tang Hao spoke with a smile, then glanced at Chen Bao.

"Boiled salt! I choose boiled salt!"

"Either boil the salt."

"grown ups!"

Because there is no choice, even if he doesn't want to, the family will force him to seek benefits for the family, and the entire Yunsi officialdom will force him to bow to reality!

"Since Pingjiang Marquis Chen Xuan, most of Tianjin's water transportation has been controlled by his descendants. Including the commanders of Tianjin's three guards, they are either named Chen or are related to them, right?"

Tang Hao held Wang Wenqing in his hand and threw him at Zong Yue's feet.

I remember when Zong Yue was promoted to the position of Chief Transport Envoy of Changlu Yunsi, he was unhappy even though he was promoted several levels in a row, because he knew very well what kind of abominable appearance he would become in the future.

Why the hell do you want us scholar-bureaucrats to boil salt and do the work of these humble kitchen households?

What?

Marquis of Zhongshan?

Is he actually that crazy and reckless man?

Wang Wenqing turned his head in disbelief, and after confirming Tang Hao's "shaving hair and beard" characteristics, he suddenly took a breath of cold air, and then his vision went dark, and he was so frightened that he fainted.

Zong Yue just gave the answer.

"That's right, it's really a big deal!"

It has to be Emperor Hongzhi, the "Lord of the ZTE". No wonder he is so loved by the gentry. Who would hate someone who leads everyone to make a fortune together?

It has developed to this day, and the Saltworks Transport Department has become a faction of its own. As long as they pay a certain amount of salt to the central household department on time, the rest can be their own profit from reselling.

check?

How do you want to check?

Which of the salt road censors sent here is not the so-called pure and honest minister, but what will be the final result?

This is pure madness!

However, they were surrounded by four guards and were quickly beaten back.

In this world, no one doesn’t like white silver!

No exceptions, always!

If he really doesn't like it, it's not a problem with the money, but a problem with the quantity of money. It's because he didn't give enough money!

He didn't dare to bet whether Tang Hao would let him go after cooking the salt.

But he knew very well that if he didn't boil the salt now, this madman would definitely kill him!

Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan, is a complete lunatic!
