Usury is the fastest way to get money.

Among the noble class, it is actually no secret for a long time.

All you need to do is reveal your identity, and someone will naturally come to you to give you shares.

You don't need anything else, you just need to settle things when something goes wrong.

The circle in the capital is neither big nor small.

There are not that many special people who can reach the level above.

If the people at the bottom place usury money and have some connection with the people at the top, then they are being unscrupulous.

These things are no longer secrets, and most people know them very well.

Those who engage in usury trading know the rules, and naturally they will not easily provoke anyone who cannot be provoked.

Only those who can grasp it will be forced to do so.

Among them, the main victims are actually businessmen.

The capital is so big, and ordinary people can get rich overnight or suddenly make a fortune if they have a lot of money. This is the goal of these people.

There are also those who bet on top, stay in the casino and don't want to move, and just take money as they please.

Of course, if you really offend someone you shouldn't offend, it's normal to apologize or cancel the offence.

It is so easy and convenient to get money, which makes many dignitaries have this idea.

What does the life and death of ordinary people and humble businessmen have to do with them?

When one person makes money, the second person he meets will naturally want to make money too.

As a result, a huge network of relationships was created inexplicably.

"Jiang Wei, tell me, are there any people in our court who are not involved in the usury business?"

Zhu Ying looked at the lists of the two eunuchs and suddenly smiled.

Eunuchs themselves prefer money. This is natural.

Of all the eunuchs throughout the ages, there is no one who is not greedy for money.

They have no other desires, even power must be ranked behind money.

This has a lot to do with the fact that they grew up in a poor family. Their family conditions were good, so they didn't need to be sent to the palace to be eunuchs.

When I was a child, I was afraid of poverty and had no desire between men and women, so naturally everything was focused on money.

Loyalty is loyalty, but does it conflict with greed for money? It seems that there is no conflict.

In this circle of eunuchs, if you want to climb up, but you don't have any money to show your respect, why should you climb up?

To put it another way, the two biggest eunuchs in the palace have also joined in the usury business.

What about Jin Yiwei?

When Jiang Wei heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead instantly, and hesitation and struggle flashed in his eyes.

He didn't know whether he should tell the truth or choose to hide it.

In just half a breath, Jiang Yu knelt down on the ground: "Your Highness, I am also involved."

Zhu Ying put down the file in her hand, looked at Jiang Yu who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Has it been dealt with?"

Jiang Wei nodded: "I have already dealt with them all."

Zhu Ying said with a smile: "It's quite quick to start. I am worthy of being able to reach the position of the leader of the Jinyi Guards."

"I thought you would deceive me, but I didn't expect you to be more honest."

Jiang Wei broke into a cold sweat.

In fact, he did have the idea of ​​hiding it just now.

He has already taken care of everything here very cleanly.

Those who came into contact with him and made usury business for him were all killed in prison immediately.

From an ordinary person's point of view, it seems that so many people are involved, and there is a feeling that the law does not punish everyone.

But who is in power now? It is Emperor Hongwu.

How can Jiang Yu not know what His Majesty is best at?

That's killing!

If one kills one, one hundred kills one hundred.

It doesn't matter if it's a thousand people or ten thousand people.

All are killed!

No matter what your identity or status is, as long as it touches the interests of the royal family, you will be killed.

The previous three major cases include the assassination case of His Highness Taisun.

Which one killed less?

Everyone involved must die.

No one knows how many people were involved.

Some of them didn't even understand the matter, so they were still implicated.

It was precisely because he knew that Jiang Yu could not risk his own life, so he had to kill all the people first.

But when His Highness the Grand Sun asked the question just now, he knew that he couldn't hide it.

So in the end I chose the honest answer.

"The guilty minister dare not."

Jiang Wei's head hit the cold floor, making a thumping sound.

No matter how great his status is, he is just an ant in front of His Highness Taisun.

Just one sentence can send him to death right now.

"Get up, I didn't say what I would do to you."

"But regarding this matter, you should tell me who the mastermind behind this is. They are so brave and courageous, and dare to be so arrogant."

Zhu Ying asked curiously.

Logically speaking, the Ming Dynasty's military attachés and nobles should all know the old man's temper. Who can get even half of the benefits from the old man when he commits crimes?

Not to mention the most low-end method of causing trouble. When he heard the news, even Zhu Ying felt puzzled.

Theoretically speaking, under such circumstances, anyone with a smarter mind would give up on the usury business.

After all, for the noble military attachés, although the usury business was good, it was not all good. No one was willing to go against the imperial court for the sake of usury.

Now that the Ming Dynasty's economy is rising rapidly, there are actually many ways to make a fortune. With the reform of salaries and wages, life is no longer as hard as before.

Who is responsible for this?

When Jiang Wei listened to these words, his face couldn't help but look a bit green, and also had a bit of a bitter taste.

"Reporting to Your Highness, there is actually no mastermind behind this matter. It was entirely done by the businessmen who engaged in loan sharking."

"They thought they had made the matter too big, and those of us who were involved would think of ways to protect them, so after doing some planning in private, they did something like this."

"When the criminals first heard about this, they didn't expect that they would be so bold."

"For example, people like Sin Chen, although they are also involved in loan sharking, they actually don't ask about what's going on here. Usually when the time comes, they will send the money themselves."

"Although most of the honorable nobles are their successors and take the profits here, they usually don't have the trouble to deal with them. They are all low-level people. Even saying a few words is considered a loss of dignity."

"In some noble mansions, just looking at the accounts, it's basically the butlers and their servants who are doing the dealings."

"When this matter started to make a fuss, everyone was in a panic. Many people also found the guilty party, hoping to have their hands clean."

Jiang Wei confessed all the situation in one go.

His Highness Taisun is very understanding and can detect even the slightest lie.

As a Jin Yiwei, especially as a Jin Yiwei commander, what is the most important thing?

It's not that I'm afraid of making mistakes, but that my loyalty is questioned.

Once there is a problem with loyalty, it means that you will not be able to work for a long time.

He is His Majesty's personal bodyguard, and he does most of the dirty things, big and small, with his own hands.

Even if one's official position is not guaranteed, one's life must be spared.

Which emperor would let someone who knows his stains survive after leaving him?

The current situation does not seem serious, but as long as there is the slightest crisis of trust in His Highness, it means a death crisis.

At this time, Jiang Wei could not be more nervous.

Zhu Ying glanced at the list on the desk, did not reach out to take it, and asked again, "Your name is definitely not on it. I don't think you are that stupid."
