Chapter 309 Human Trafficking

In Qingzhou, Goryeo, Wang Kang, who had just arrived at the state city to stabilize, learned about Wang Zhi's surrender in Xiancheng, and immediately scolded Wang Zhi as an unfilial descendant of the Goryeo royal family and gave up his ancestors' country to others for nothing. Even if he could not resist the Ming army, he would at least be punished.

As a result, the other party broke the can and gave up and opened the city gate to surrender. While this made him angry, he also questioned the spy who sent the letter and said, "When I left the city, the city defense minister was handed over to the Nanjing garrison with full authority. How did the king open the city gate and surrender?"

Speaking of which, Wang Kang was not unprepared when he left. Relying on the walls of Nanjing City, he thought that he could still block the Ming army for several months. But he didn't expect that the city would be broken in just two or three days.

Not only that, the Goryeo Camp set up in Banqiaoyi was also broken. Even if there are 100,000 pigs, they have to be killed for a while before they can be killed. Why is it so useless?

"Report to the grandfather, the Nanjing garrison Yuan Lichu was killed by the military generals below in less than a day after taking over the defense. It is said that the Ming navy suddenly appeared on the surface of the Han River and projected several waves of rumbling fire thunder towards the city wall of Nanjing.

The people in the city were panicked, and the Ming army forced the surrender. So the guards in the city rebelled collectively, killed the guards, and jointly requested the king to open the city to surrender. In this way, Nanjing City could go down in one day."

"Waste! Waste!" Wang Kang was so angry that he jumped up and cursed!

In fact, the surrender of Nanjing City is much more dangerous than the literal statement.

Although the Ming army was forced to do so, the secret guards in the city also put a lot of effort into it. Wang Kang had previously implicated the city, which scared many court officials to think that they would lose their lives when they woke up.

After that, Wang Kang led the new army away, which made those who secretly hated Wang Kang even more dissatisfied with him. In addition, the secret guards operated in it, so there was a situation of opening the city and surrendering.

But the secret guards are shameless! Not only are they not known to outsiders, but they are also not known to the Ming army. Except for Ulutus and a few upper-class civil and military officials, they only listen to their names but do not know them.

This also made the title of Secret Guard even more mysterious.

After cursing like this, Wang Kang calmed down for a moment and felt that his situation was even worse. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the natural danger blocking the two mountains in Qingzhou, and the city of Nanjing was on the north side, so he used the drag-on technique to make the Ming army retreat.

At that time, he could become the savior of Goryeo with justification and crown him as the King of Goryeo with real power. He would then send a memorial to the Ming Kingdom in a fake way, and then he would be respectful to the country and then be crowned as the king.

All internal and external troubles will be solved.

But he never expected that the Ming army would be so fast.

"Continue to go back and stare, but there is another turbulence, report immediately." Wang Kang continued to order, and went out to patrol the city defense with some anxiety.

The city of Qingzhou is not as tall as the city of Nanjing. The city walls are not tall and the city is not wide. The circumference is only two miles, and Dingkou is only one thousand households. Due to the continuous uprisings within Goryeo in recent years, the Luozhou thieves in the south have started to make a lot of noise, and they were suddenly extinguished by the Jeju Navy, causing many rebels to surge in the Qingzhou area.

Now the city is messy, homeless, and refugees who come to the city to take refuge have nowhere to stay. They can only curl up under the eaves on the street, hoping that there are kind-hearted people passing by to stutter. The younger men and women have grass rings tied around their necks, hoping that some wealthy families can buy themselves so as not to starve to death on the streets like this.

Such a scene is the norm in Goryeo! Wang Kang has been walking among the people a lot, so he is naturally not surprised by this. But when he passed by today, he saw two Goryeo merchants dressed up, full of wealthy merchants, not looking at the refugees who sold their children or even sold themselves, but waved their hands and bought them all away.

So generous, Wang Kang couldn't help but say, "Who is so kind? He bought so many child servants without even asking."

"The prince doesn't know anything. These two people are new merchants from Qingzhou. They have gained wealth through trade with the north. But they are doing business with human teeth, and they have a bad reputation in Qingzhou City."

"Human teeth? Could it be that he was secretly sending people to Ming Kingdom?" Wang Kang immediately realized something and said. He had also been involved in such a business before he became Jingyang Gong. Moreover, in Goryeo, such business is involved in many merchants.

It's really a huge profit, it's too cost-effective.

Those poor and helpless Korean poor people also want to get an opportunity to change their destiny, so they often take the initiative to sell their property to give them to those who have their own connections in Ming Dynasty, and they always get tickets for boats or horse-drawn buses to Ming Dynasty.

After receiving the money and sending it to the Ming Dynasty, Renya will receive a reward from the Immigration Department. This profit is too rich. Some merchants who have no business concept will also join this business.

During this chaos, the people were more concerned about seeking profit and avoiding harm. So they were even more imposing, just seeking a way to Ming Dynasty.

This leads to unexpectedly booming business of human teeth.

"What the grandfather said is exactly. They separated the relatives and friends of the foolish people and fools, and deliberately separated their flesh and blood. However, because they had many opportunities in the Ming Dynasty, there were many officials in the city who were willing to support him, and they did not dare to denounce him too much."

When the Qingzhou Prefecture Governor spoke, he carefully observed Wang Kang's expression.

"It's really outrageous! The Ming thieves are about to destroy my country's destiny. Such villains are still traitors. Don't be afraid, get off the car and investigate a group of people immediately. If there is anything, I will support you." After Wang Kang had the intention of becoming the king of Goryeo, he cut off the business of selling children and women. In the previous Goryeo Uprising, he deliberately killed many Ming merchants and merchants with connections with the Ming Dynasty, and confiscated all their property.

Unexpectedly, under my nose, there were such a fish that had missed the net.

In fact, this is the default rule in the Goryeo officialdom. If you deceive your superiors and hide your subordinates, you will be safe and worry-free as long as you deceive your superiors. And those Ming merchants and merchants who have connections with Ming Dynasty all have relationships in the local area.

Those vested interests dare not offend them at all. They beat the imperial edicts one by one, but bullied those ordinary people who had no power and power. Those who were really going to be dealt with were still rest assured.
