If they couldn't leave Jinling, how could they talk about how to repay the king, the country, and the people?
Therefore, Yu Qian couldn't use the imperial grandson's technique here.
Even in the Suzhou and Hangzhou regions, he could add a carrot to a stick!
However, Jinling was special, so they had to attack separately.
They would break through one by one and solve the problem separately.
This thousand household of the Jinyiwei who followed Yu Qian was personally selected by Zhu Zhanyu. His name was Ma Bao.
Along with Ma Qianhu came twenty Brocade Guards, all of whom were skilled in martial arts and had sharp bladesmanship.
More importantly, there were Embroidered Uniform Guards in all parts of the Ming Dynasty.
With the Jinyiwei accompanying him, Yu Qian would be able to do it more easily.
This was also Zhu Zhan Xin's consideration.
"Sir, why don't you let us arrest them directly, just like the Suzhou and Hangzhou governments?"”
Yu Qian smiled as he walked on the street and explained,"Other than the fact that you and I want to leave Jinling alive, you have to know that Jinling is a prosperous place. There are already six departments here. Although they don't have any real power, they don't want officials from the capital to interfere too much in their territory. Not to mention that the princes and ministers here have too many dealings with merchants.”
"I understand."
"It's good that you understand. Let's go and deal with the boss of the largest silk shop in Jinling first. Then, we'll be able to deal with the merchants behind.”
"Yes."
Yu Qian's thoughts were very simple.
It was to defeat the bosses of these trading companies one by one, and to "convince" them one by one!
They arrived at the entrance of Shopkeeper Zhao's manor.
The servant at the door came up and stopped Yu Qian, who wanted to ask for an audience.
"What do you do? This was not a place where ordinary people could come.”
The servant stopped Yu Qian, his tone full of disdain.
The way this watchdog looked down on people was annoying.
It is not equal to speaking modestly.
Qian Hu stepped forward and kicked the servant in the chest!
"Are you blind?"
"Aiyo!"
The servant was kicked to the ground. Even if Ma Bao didn't use any strength, he was still kicked quite heavily by the servant.
When the guards at the door saw this, they quickly raised their sticks and surrounded him.
Ma Bao raised the lower hem of his clothes and showed the waist token of the Jinyiwei, which read:
Acting first and reporting later, the imperial power granted special permission!
How could the servants of the wealthy families in Jinling not recognize this thing?
They quickly threw away the sticks in their hands and knelt on the ground in fear.
In this day and age, it was better to provoke the King of Hell than the Embroidered Uniform Guards. This was an iron rule that everyone knew.
"Big, big, big! What business do you have?"
A servant was so frightened that he stuttered.
The boy servant who was kicked was even more pale. He quickly crawled over and knelt down.
Ma Qianhu scolded," Get lost! Inform your master that my Yu Qian, Lord Yu, has been ordered to patrol Jiangnan. Today, he is here to pay a visit to your master!" Motherf * cker, why aren't you bowing? Ah!"
As he cursed, Ma Qianhu's Yanling Saber swung forward again!
The servants were so frightened that their souls almost flew out of their bodies.
Yu Qian just looked on coldly.
This was a good start!
As expected, a middle-aged man with a big belly immediately led three young men out of the house.
"I, Wang Bing, bring my three sons to pay my respects to Lord Yu Qian!"”
"Hehe, Shopkeeper Wang, please rise. This is my first time here and I wanted to buy a few clothes.”
"Yes, yes, yes. Please, sir!”Wang Bing stood up and made a gesture of invitation. He also scolded the servants,"Get lost! Are you waiting for the lord to chop off your heads?”
……
They entered the manor.
Wang Bing led Yu Qian directly to the front hall.
He had specially ordered the best Longjing tea before spring.
"Sir, what do you have today?" he asked with a smile.”
Yu Qian took a sip of the good tea, gently put down the white porcelain cup, and said directly,"Wang Zhang, Yu Qian said that if Shopkeeper Wang is the first to come out to cooperate with the new policy, I can order people to purchase the new official robes from the tax bureau this year. At the same time, I will specially mention a few more words to the country supervisor. The quality of your silk is excellent and can be used.”
As soon as he said that!
Shopkeeper Wang originally wanted to stick with the other merchants of Jinling!
This time, he came forward and grabbed Yu Qian's hand. He said sincerely,"Aiya, Lord Yu! You don't know, but I've long wanted to cooperate with the new policy! I have nine ways to cooperate with the new policy, nine ways!”
As he spoke, Shopkeeper Wang even gestured a number of nine. That was called honesty, and his eyes were sincere!
Ma Qianhu was standing behind Lord Yu at this moment. He couldn't help but smile, but he held back his smile.
Mercenary merchants!
"Oh? Was that so? Hehe, that's a good relationship! In three days, Shopkeeper Wang will be waiting at the entrance of Jinling's General Administration of Revenue. I will personally register Shopkeeper Wang and let everyone in Jinling know about it. I will also let the news reach the ears of the Minister of State and even His Majesty!”
"What? Was that so? Good, good, good!"
Shopkeeper Wang's face was smiling like a flower.
When Yu Qian walked out of Shopkeeper Wang's house, Ma Qianhu couldn't help but ask,"Does Lord Yu really want to put in a good word for this merchant?”
Yu Qian walked forward and said with a smile,"Say a few more words, and you're happy to earn a share of my tax? Moreover, his family's silk was originally of the best quality in Jinling and even in the entire Jiangnan. Otherwise, there would not be so many people buying it.”
"It's still Daren who plans the strategy!"
"Hehe, let's go to the next shopkeeper's house.”
"Yes, the next one is the biggest tea merchant in Jinling, Shopkeeper Lai.”
"I know what he likes, and I've also inquired about his personality in advance.”
Just like that, for three consecutive days.
One by one, Yu Qian visited three or four local Chamber of Commerce shopkeepers a day.
One by one, it made sense!
As for those who didn't cooperate and those who were unwilling, they all agreed.
Then, he looked at the consequences of not registering.
After much deliberation, he agreed to Yu Qian.
All of a sudden, the shopkeepers of Jinling's Chamber of Commerce, who had initially announced that they were going to rise and fall together, ran away one by one.
Who would be the first to register at the entrance of the Jinling Branch of the State Administration of Revenue?
When this news reached the Forbidden City, the capital, the city was in chaos.
Zhu Zhan Xin laughed out loud, feeling that this Yu Qian was really a demon.
Not only was he resourceful, but he also understood the ways of the world.
He knew how to be flexible, but he was not tactful.
He was good at human relations, but he insisted on the bottom line.
He was a truly capable official, not a clean stream that only knew how to persist!
Although Qingliu was good, it was a pity that his ability was not good.
Zhu Zhan looked at the memorial that stated that the issue of Jinling had been resolved.
Now, the entire Jiangnan area was under the control of the State Administration of Revenue.
They were just waiting for the time to collect taxes!
All good things!
Zhu Zhan was so happy that he could not hide his joy.
