There was no imagined chaos in northern Guangdong, or the chaos that the cabinet ministers had been worried about.

A group of gentry and businessmen were captured in a sad and anxious manner and sent to the provincial capital for verdict.

Dongchang, Jinyiwei had already figured out their evidence of their crimes, and then submitted evidence of the original bandits' testimony.

The Silu Department quickly requested the Dali Temple to hear these cases in public in accordance with the "Da Ming Law".

The first one is the families in Yangcheng, who were escorted to the high platform in a sad and anxious manner.

The people below were already notified by the yamen runners of Yangcheng Prefecture to watch the trial.

"...The thieves in the Tong family are in vain to read sages! They go to the sea without any ban, collude with bandits, intend to disrupt Guangdong, their actions are hateful, and their hearts are punished!!"

Tong Shang looked at the Dali Temple Minister Wang Shi and Wang Yongjing, who was burning with anger in front of him.

Lao Wang is also old. He was a Jinshi in the eighth year of Tianshun and was first appointed as the Right Evaluation Officer of Dali Right Temple.

Later, he was moved to the commander of Yousi and was promoted to the deputy envoy of Sichuan.

At the beginning of Hongzhi, he was promoted to the Censor of Sichuan. In the third year, he was transferred to Nanjing's Right Censor and Admiral Cao Jiang.

In the eighth year, he was promoted to the right deputy censor and prime minister of Nanjing's grain storage.

Because Mr. Zhang himself asked, the cabinet also felt that it needed a mature and polite minister to help.

So the old Dali Temple official was promoted to the Minister of Dali Temple and transferred to northern Guangdong to preside over the trial.

The posts and pieces presented by the Silu Department were almost covered in blood and tears.

More than 60% of the 73 shops in the prefectures in northern Guangdong were obtained by various tricks and plunder.

Some people were kidnapped by bandits, and even if they were given enough money, they were still torn to pieces.

Others wanted to buy it but were intimidated by the Tong family, so they eventually had to sell it at the Tong family at a low price to avoid disaster.

Someone was rushing to buy silk rice with the Tong family, but on the way back, they were missing by water bandits and people and boats.

Then the family was infected with bandits and was burned and killed and left to survive...

For example, this is how the thirty acres of good paddy fields next to the Tong family came from.

The Tong family wanted to collect 30 acres of paddy fields at a price lower than the market price, but the family was rejected by the family, but only one hundred years later, the family encountered bandits.

The fourteen family members of the family survived, and the Tong family bought the thirty acres of land from the state capital at a low price...

When these things were lifted up one by one, the people of Yangcheng present were so angry that their faces turned red and their bodies were trembling.

"Beast! Beast!! Kill this beast!!"

Zhan Ganquan heard these things on the side of the high platform, and his whole body was trembling with anger. Although he had seen some evidence.

But where is this one thing? It is more direct and infuriating when opened in public?!

"...I have asked the cabinet's Ministry of Rites to strip you of your fame and honor! I confiscate your property and do all my hard work! I will use this to atone for northern Guangdong!!"

Lao Wang on the stage was proclaiming the verdict passionately, and Lao Zhang off the stage was proclaiming the accounts passionately.

Not sure, I was shocked when I calculated it. Lao Zhang watched the Ministry of Revenue constantly calculate various objects carried out from various families in northern Guangdong.

Looking at the sealed land deeds and shop contracts, my mouth was trembling.

Damn it! The cash-fighting of cash is more than four million taels!!

In addition, there are more than 7,000 taels of gold, two eight-foot-high coral trees, more than 20 more than 5 feet, and nearly 100 less than 5 feet!

The size of a thumb-tip beads is calculated by boxes, and there are more than 230 boxes of dressing boxes.

Various gems, dragon fragrance, amber, jadeite, jade carvings, etc., are piled up like mountains and countless.

There are also large sea yellow materials, shipbuilding fir, cypress, teak, etc., all hidden tightly in the village.

Although most of the land was cut, they actually held more in their hands!!

After searching the Tong family’s land deeds alone, there were still as many as 300,000 acres!

However, these fields are extremely hidden and scattered, and many people even do not know that the acres they cultivate belong to the Tong family.

There are also shops, a large number of shops everywhere...

Not to mention the grain stored in each grain shop and the grain warehouses hidden in the farm, it has been counted to be nearly two million stones of grain!

He is rich! He is so rich!!

Old Zhang and Old Zhao almost hugged their heads and cried. We couldn't even shovel so much land in northern Guangdong!

The people from the Ministry of Revenue were also shocked. They had never expected that these maritime merchants would be so arrogant!

If you look closely, it will be even more terrifying. There are many bandits and bandits at sea that collude with mines.

Iron smelting, steelmaking, and a lot of coal, stone, wood... and so on.

Even the gold and silver mines were found several places, and they secretly organized people to dig.

What makes Zhang Xuanying and Zhao Lifu feel even more terrifying is the armor and weapons they discovered!

Nearly a thousand pairs of iron armor were found, more than 500 powerful crossbows, and more than 3,000 high-quality steel knives...

There are even more than twenty heavy door-mouthed guns. If they really use them, the consequences will be...

Zhang Xuanying, Zhao Lifu and others felt chilling when they thought about it. Some of the missing bowl guns in Jiubian were found.

And where the rest flows are still unknown.

"In the 150th year of the empire, the poor country and the poor people eventually became rich, and these were the stinky animals!"

Mr. Zhang placed these statistics in front of Dai Yi, Wang Shi, Zhan Ganquan... and others, and sighed.

"If they don't die, I don't know when they will hollow out the state and then they will stop!"

Looking at the hidden families affiliated with Dingkou in their homes, these old scholars were relatively speechless in the officialdom.

They had vaguely felt this problem before, but they had never thought that this problem would be so serious!

This has surpassed the word "national worm". Perhaps the only thing that can be used is what Mr. Zhang called "stinky animal worm"!

"The Imperial Navy seized twenty large ships smuggled, and fifteen ships of four hundred materials that were "floating" in the original canal transport..."

"Twenty-three battle patrol ships, and nearly a hundred privately built civilian ships from 800 to 200 materials!!"

Mr. Zhang looked at them and said softly: "Does this governor praise them for their ability or scold them for being traitors..."

Zhang Xuanying and the others were speechless, but fortunately, Mr. Zhang did not bother with this.

"Actually, I should thank them. Many of the craftsmanship that have been scattered in Yongle Nian have not been completely cut off."

"This can probably be considered a good thing they did for the empire by accident!"

But Mr. Zhang waved his hand in vain and walked to the huge railing on the top of the Wangjiang Building and looked out the riverside outside the window.

The river was brightly lit, and even at night there were countless people shouting to work and grab the construction period.
Chapter completed!
