Chapter 2573 Canal Checkpoint


The atmosphere was somewhat tragic, but only tragic for civil officials.

The warriors were accustomed to life and death, and they were almost numb.

Tragedy can always make people feel interested in reciting poetry, Fang Xing noticed that Du Qian's right hand was moving slightly, and his head was also rhythmically turning in a gentle circle.

This is clearly composing poetry.

Poetry and poetry are things that express one's feelings.

Fang Xing suddenly wanted to know what Du Qian was thinking now.

"Your Majesty, are you going to start?"

Du Qian was really a 'stunned young man' in the political hall, and asked the emperor questions directly.

Zhu Zhanji nodded disappreciatively.

There was silence in the hall.

When Yang Rong came out of class, he arched his hand at the martial artist and said: "Once the big war starts, we should take care of the baggage, appease the country, and not let the front lack of food and medicine." ” Yang Rong knew that he couldn't go with him this time.

The capital needs someone to sit in charge, and the prince needs someone to protect him, and Yang Rong feels that this is his responsibility.

Fang Xing arched his hand sideways, and said: "We should do our best to serve the country, if there is disharmony, we will not hesitate to break our bones, and we will never be reluctant." ” Warriors must be strong, and in the battle of the country, they must be prepared to be martyred.

Fang woke up very naturally, and everyone felt that it was natural.

He is the representative of the warriors.

Yang Rong took the lead, and the civil officials bowed in unison.

This is the last time, and there will be no such big battles in the future, so we can only win, not lose.

It's up to you!

The warriors blushed slightly, then bowed in return.

The atmosphere in the hall was a little strange, like drinking to just the right level, drunk, but very sober.

It has been a long time since civil and military officials have been so harmonious.

The emperor on the throne is smiling.

He is not worried about the convergence of civil and military.

If the civil and military converge, the emperor is a hypocrite.

But that's not until the sun comes out of the west.

Yang Rong smiled and said: "The grain and grass have been prepared, and the military department is also mobilizing the guards from all over the country according to the requirements of the Governor's Mansion, everything is ......

Daming Wansheng. ” "Daming Wansheng!"

The whole Ming Dynasty moved, and the grain from the south continued to gather in the capital through the canal, and then went to Hami as soon as it came ashore.

Countless people are repairing the road to Hami, and on the road from Shaanxi to Hami, the road is constantly widened and compacted.

A large convoy of people who could not see the edge at a glance ran over the freshly compacted road, and the people on the side of the road rushed up to continue repairing.

It's a huge Daming.

When it mobilizes, the world must look at it and bow its head to it. …… The civil officials are busy, but the warriors are not easy.

The troops mobilized from all over the country are there every day, and the people from the military department and the governor's office need to go to inspect them, and they will have to drill later, carefully investigate whether they are elite or miscellaneous.

The elite eats meat, and the miscellaneous cards are bullying the king, and if you don't say it, the generals of the unified army lose their heads and the whole family is exiled.

Countless armies were assembled outside the city, and the shouts of the daily drills could be heard even in the city.

The grain and grass in the south continued to move north, and the canals were almost filled with grain boats.

The checkpoints along the way allow official grain ships to pass, but any merchant ships heading north at this time will be troubled.

"Merchants are contemptible!"

Just after intercepting a merchant ship transporting porcelain, the hundred household officials at the checkpoint took a sip.

The merchant ship was towed into a small lake specially carved out on the side, and the merchant was smiling and talking at the two sergeants not far away, and wanted to come and plead.

"Sir, get his stuff."

Someone under his command suggested with a fierce look in his eyes: "Just say that he wants to sneak attack us, he is a spy." ” The Baihu official didn't speak, and the deputy Baihu next to him explained in a low voice: "Wait until it's dark before you do it." ” In the end, the merchant did not have a chance to get close to the hundred household officials, so he had to return to the ship and wait.

As the sky darkened, several sergeants stared at the merchant ship.

Baihu Guan turned around and took a look, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Damn, from top to bottom, they are preparing for a big war, how many merchant ships are missing on the canal?"

The merchants preferred to spend more money and food, and they had to travel overland just to free up the canal to transport grain and grass. ” Deputy Baihu said disdainfully: "Merchants seek profits, and those merchants take the land route because they are miserable by various checkpoints."

But at this time, don't get them to get anyone. ” The hundred household officials nodded and praised: "Public and private." ” No one is rich or windfall, and as a hundred household officials guarding the checkpoints, he often had the opportunity to make a fortune in the past.

Since the current emperor ascended the throne, Yushi and Dongchang Jinyiwei went crazy and stared at the places that were easy to breed corruption.

"Most of the checkpoints of the entire canal have been taken, we are lucky, otherwise we would all have to farm on a desert island overseas."

Baihu Guan sighed, feeling that his luck was unparalleled, but later he felt that it was the blessing of his ancestors, so he was ready to ask for leave to go home to worship his ancestors next time.

"My lord, here are three ships!"

The hundred household officials followed the sound, and then shouted, "Go and see." ” In the twilight, three large cargo ships slowly approached.

Deputy Baihu said: "My lord, the ship transporting grain and grass will not sail at night at this time. ” The Baihu official smiled cruelly: "That's not an official ship.

Damn businessmen, they all deserve to be killed!

” The group rushed to the shore, and a little downstream, the sergeants got into a boat with their knives in hand, ready to intercept the merchant ships.

The hundred household officials stood on the shore, holding the handle of the knife, squinting and watching coldly as the merchant ship approached.

"Get aside!"

A sergeant pointed his long knife at some of the shore below, causing the merchant ship to come to shore.

On the bow of the first merchant ship stood a merchant, who, instead of questioning, shouted, "Dock, dock." ” "This man is interesting."

The officials of the hundred households led the people to follow the merchant ship down, and as soon as the merchant ship docked, he shouted: "Take it!"

” While the merchant was still stunned, the sergeants rushed onto the merchant ship like wolves, kicked and beat them, and tied them all up.

"Adult, the little one didn't do anything!"

The merchant felt wronged, and the Baihu official walked up to him, slapped him to the ground, and scolded: "It has been announced since the day before yesterday, and the merchant ship has been suspended for half a month, don't you see it?"

” The merchant was stunned, and then the sergeant who was inspecting the goods came out and shouted, "My lord, it's grain, it's all grain." ” When the officials of the hundred households heard this, they were furious, grabbed the merchant's clothes, and shouted: "Take the opportunity to get rich?

” A large amount of grain and grass went north, but it was military food, and the price of grain in the north still rose slightly.

Rising is profit, so some merchants in various places began to resell grain, ready to take advantage of this opportunity to make a small profit.

But this profit is blood steamed buns in the eyes of the martial artists.

Damn it!

The eyes of the hundred household officials are full of murderous intentions.

"It's not getting rich!"

The merchant suddenly struggled, and then said, "The little one is the army!"

Treat the army!

” "Sacrifice?"

The Baihu official said coldly: "Do businessmen also know how to serve the country?"

” Fang Xing's sentence in his early years that wealthy businessmen have no country gradually became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which led to a lot of vigilance against wealthy businessmen in the DPRK and China, first, they were afraid that they would take risks to smuggle for profits; The second is the fear that they will use money to infiltrate politics.

And this sentence incidentally affected ordinary merchants, coupled with the contempt for merchants throughout the ages, so although the merchants were loosened, their status was limited.

The merchant raised his head and said: "The humble man does not dare to forget the country!"

” The Baihu official sneered: "Do you have a credential?

If not, this official will kill you!

” The merchant stiffened his neck and said, "There are documents in your arms!"

” The hundred household officials grabbed his chest with one hand, touched his chest with the other, and later found an envelope.

He handed the envelope to the deputy Baihu and said, "Look, if it is fake, this official will cut off your head here." ” The merchant just sneered.

The deputy Baihu official carefully looked at the official documents, with this paperwork, these three ships did not have to pay taxes.

He looked left and right, and even the other way around, and finally said with some embarrassment: "My lord, it's true." ” The hundred-household official let go of his hand, and then snatched the paperwork.

The merchant sneered on the side: "There are many businessmen who are profit-seeing, and there are many of them.

Don't underestimate the world. ” The hundred household officials retorted while watching: "Wealthy businessmen have no country!"

” These are Fang Xing's words.

The merchant said coldly: "The first is the Ming people, and then the merchants."

Also, it is not a wealthy businessman under it. ”
