Indeed, just not far from Zhenhai County, Sun Ying, who had been here for several years, couldn't help but feel angry, picked up a long knife and split the table in front of him in half.

Although he was a civil servant and had never been on the battlefield, as the magistrate of Zhenhai, Sun Ying had to be responsible for almost everything. From the trading process to the inspection of goods, from the estimation of goods value to the order of purging, the young man who escaped from the past also had a good sense of taking a long sword.

"Prince, Prince Min!" Sun Ying threw down his long knife, gritted his teeth and cursed.

Zheng Ruozeng, who was standing beside him, sat there drinking tea without any reason, and said casually: "It is obviously 2,300 taels, how can it become 23,000 taels?"

Sun Ying's face turned blue and white. That day, because of the border army's disaster, his lion spoke loudly, and changed from 2,300 taels to 23,000 taels.

Sun Ying felt that this was not big, he just added a 0. Now Zhenhai uses Arabic numerals promoted by Qian Yuan.

But he didn't expect that the other person's counterattack came so quickly and so blatantly... When this incident spread, many people were laughing and laughing.

On that day, the Dong family promised to pay the 23,000 taels of silver to the county government, but before the money was delivered, Sun Ying received bad news.

The fleets formed by the Zhou family in Hangzhou, the Shaoxing family in Kuaiji, the Tao family in Yuyao, and the Pan family in Xinchang are required to pay 23,000 taels of silver.

It was a coincidence, but Sun Ying had no place to breathe his anger.

The fleet originally reported that it should pay 2,300 taels of taxes... Well, I didn't ask for a penny.

If you report back and forth, you, Sun Wen and the Dong family, will also receive the money from those families.

Tao Dalin, Chen Younian, Zhu Dashou, Zhou Shi, and Pan Sheng were all direct descendants of Suiyuan, and Wang Bengu was blatant!

But Sun Ying was unable to complain publicly and vent his anger because the government office had sent out the news privately. Zheng Ruozeng also discussed with Sun Ying that the Dong family was arrogant and demanding bribes, but Wang Bengu never made any statement. As long as he was not stupid, he would never increase the tax.

This means that the case of the fleet's additional tax collection will not arouse public anger if it is exposed. Outsiders will only regard it as a personal grudge between Sun Ying and Wang Bengu and the Dong family.

You have to collect 32,000 taels of silver from others first, and then they will collect 32,000 taels of silver from the fleet, and they don’t charge you more than a penny.

They are all good friends, and Sun Ying is not afraid of his friends' reproach, but the problem is that he slapped him with a slap. He slapped him with a slap, but he didn't slap him.

Too embarrassing!

The reason why Wang Bengu was quite disdainful of Sun Ying was here. Playing with these clevernesses was like a joke. I don’t know how Mr. Ji Quan taught him!

This is also the difference between Wang Bengu and Suiyuan. The former is most persistent in official battles, but under the deliberate influence of Qian Yuan, the scholar of Suiyuan devotes more energy to specific matters.

This is true for Yang Quan, Zhou Shi, Sun Shuxiao, Lu Yipeng, and Sun Ying. They all demonstrated their abilities with practical actions in the local area, not just talking.

But Wang Bengu, the inspector, is just a verbal censor.

After gasping for a while, Sun Ying finally calmed down, "Kaiyang Gong, look at the situation, I'm afraid that Wang Zimin hasn't noticed it yet... Do you want to remind me one or two?"

Seeing that Zheng Ruozeng had not made any statement, Sun Ting said with a face: "The Dong family has been arrogant and the border troops are domineering these days. Although they dare not cause trouble for the ragged wharf again and cut off the Yongjiang River, they are also in chaos. Don't destroy the good situation!"

"How many maritime merchants are scolding Wang Bengu, and the Dong family is so greedy. If this continues, it only takes a few days... You must know that those maritime merchants can transfer to Ninghai, Quanzhou, and Xiamen!"

"At that time, even if Zhan Caicai goes south, I am afraid that Zhenhai Taxun will find it difficult to reply!"

Zheng Ruozeng couldn't help but smile and said, "Wenhe is afraid of being Lu Zizhi and Sun Shuxiao is overwhelming?"

Sun Ying rolled his eyes, but did not deny it, "Zhancai's plan is really hard to understand. If one is not good, it will lose all the money. Even if it is successful, it will be difficult to eliminate the source. No matter who is in power in the court, it will be unbearable to control commercial affairs for the long term."

Zheng Ruozeng also admitted this and sighed: "Today, if Huating is magnanimous, it is possible in the short term..."

"What?" Sun Ying thought for a while before he figured it out, "Huating will go to his position, and His Majesty will balance Gao Xinzheng with Suiyuan?"

Zheng Ruozeng did not affirm or deny it. He only vaguely noticed this from Qian Yuan's many letters... After all, Gao Gong had already entered the pavilion, and the highest official position in Suiyuan was the level of a minister, which was difficult to resist.

But if Suiyuan can master commercial affairs and flatter His Majesty, he will be qualified to check and balance Gao Xinzheng.

After a moment of quietness, Sun Ying couldn't help asking again: "Will Xu Huating go to the seat?"

Zheng Ruozeng's lips smiled, "Who knows...but this year is Beijing Cha Nian."

Seeing Sun Ying's thoughtful look, Zheng Ruozeng stood up and said, "Mr. Jingchuan retired and Wang Zimin took over all the battle. The victory has been decided. Next, it depends on how Wang Zimin chooses."

"Would you choose to help Huating without hesitation, or to leave with usefulness."

"If you haven't noticed it within three days, the government office staff will reveal it without any need for text or prompts."

"I inform Yang Wen, Hong Hou that from today, any border troops will be severely punished if they cause trouble."

Sun Ying wrote down one by one and asked in surprise: "Kaiyang Gong is leaving Zhenhai?"

Zheng Ruo once sighed: "Since leaving the Governor's Office in the 36th year of Jiajing, he has been living in Zhenhai for many years and has made friends with Jingchuan's referendum. Now... how can I not send him a trip?"

Sun Ying fell silent and asked in a low voice for a while: "Mr. Jingchuan really vomited blood at the end of last year?"

"The blood vomited several liters, and it has been so strong that it has been."

"Mr. Jingchuan..." Sun Ying looked lonely, "If it weren't for business, if it weren't for Suiyuan, why would Jingchuan become the prefect of Ningbo..."

"Mr. Jingchuan will not care about these..." Zheng Ruozeng sighed long and stood up and went out.

Zheng Ruo once remembered that he had a long talk with Qian Yuan last year because Zeng Xianzhaoxue went to Beijing. During the meal, Qian Yuan once said that there are many mediocre people in the world, and there are many heroes, but very few can receive respect.

I only talk about several people after several times.

The former Minister of War Nie Bao is definitely one. Wu Baipeng, the governor of Zhejiang who would rather take the initiative to avoid Hu Zongxian in order to fight against the Japanese situation, was one of Yu Dayou, who was not greedy for the closeness of merits and courage, and another one was Tang Shunzhi.

Now, Wu Baipeng is the governor of Fujian, Yu Dayou returns to his hometown in Guangdong, Nie Bao dies early, and Tang Shunzhi, who has done his best to do business in recent years, is about to die... Zheng Ruo once thought to himself, what kind of emotion will Qian Yuan feel after learning the news.

Zheng Ruozeng did not set off immediately, but went east along the road opened by the new city, walking all the way to the edge of Hou Tao Mountain. With the help of his servants, Zheng Ruozeng climbed the mountain with difficulty.

He was a scholar in his early years, but later he had to recommend him to the Imperial College for traveling around the world and gaining insight. Zheng Ruozeng was different from ordinary scholars. He had a wide range of knowledge and even knew some of the Yin and Yang and Five Elements and Feng Shui.

These days, Zheng Ruozeng has to come to Hou Tao Mountain for a walk every day.
