Chapter 70 Destroy the family and rescue the family

With He Changling's guarantee, Yang Meng felt confident. This time he won both fame and fortune. As long as the old man firmly took up the position of Salt Transportation Commander, the expenses this time were only a little capital.

The Yang family's gains are much more than that. Because of this plague, many landlords and gentry in Yunnan Prefecture were thinking about leaving Yunnan. The reputation of itchy syndrome in Yunnan was filled with human lives. Since the plague began, many people have begun to escape with their families.

Yang Meng blocked the entire Yunnan Prefecture by epidemic prevention. Small households can walk around cleanly, but it will be difficult for those rich families involved in their homes to leave Yunnan Prefecture!

A few wealthy families who were determined to leave Yunnan also took the opportunity to give Yang Meng a generous gift, not just to escape the death disaster. Yunnan had an itchy disease. This has a history and it was common for several years. Staying in Yunnan was almost seeking death.

There are thousands of wealth and countless fertile lands, which are useless to deal with itchy diseases. This disease is not different from the rich or poor, but it is a death if it is involved. The chaos in western Yunnan may not know, but the news of these wealthy families is also well-informed. The plague and civilian chaos are no longer a paradise. Removing the real estate in Yunnan, finding a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and living a carefree and good life has become the dream of most landlords and gentry in Yunnan Province shrouded in the fear of the plague.

Yang Meng also saw the opportunity and began to frequently purchase farms, private kilns, antiques in prosperous times, and gold in troubled times. The chaos in Yunnan made the prices of these real estates fall extremely badly. The land that was originally bought for thousands of taels can now be sold for three to five hundred taels, which is a great joy.

Many wealthy families who could not find their next family plan to not have land and real estate, so they just took Xiruan to run away, but Yang Meng's epidemic prevention camp, together with Minzhuang from all over the country, blocked the entire Yunnan Prefecture.

Lock the realm! This is not a good sign. Now the landlords in Yunnan Prefecture can't sit still. With one of them at the beginning, others responded one after another. Kunming's epidemic prevention camp is about to become a market, and they are everywhere coming to open up joints, hoping to leave the wealthy households in various parts of Yunnan.

Epidemic prevention requires a lot of money, and Yang Meng can’t stand it even if he buys land! Epidemic prevention and purchase of land, with the strength of Yiliang Field Village, he can only do one thing.

I asked Ding Baojun, the former butler of the Yang family looked relaxed. The Third Master insisted on taking action himself. I told the old man that as long as Wuzhuang burst into blood, it would be easy to do.

But Yang Meng disagrees! The Yang family has their own business, which requires capital. Once he draws a lot of money from the old man, it will be bad if he affects the Yang family's business.

Land and epidemic prevention are all done by oneself, and we must never bring pressure to the entire Yang family. If we lose here, the Yang family will still be a home. If the Yang family fails, we will not even have a home.

Zhou Shiqing's family wealth, Yiliang Dianshi's family wealth, and the first shipment income, have also used one-third of the income during this period. Epidemic prevention is a big deal, and purchasing the entire Yunnan Prefecture's land is even more of a bottomless pit.

Just when Yang Meng was about to give up, Ding Baojun made a suggestion, that is, to pay credit, to buy land, to owe the epidemic prevention materials first, to make profits to merchants, and to use the purchased land as collateral and turnover, merchants from all over the country should give the Yang family a face.

This is why Yang Meng owed credit. During this period, Yang Meng acquired countless farmlands in the entire Yunnan Prefecture at an extremely low price. When the plague subsided, the land appreciated, and the profits in it were enough to pay for epidemic prevention.

Yang Meng will not sell the land property, but I just hope that everything will go smoothly with my elder brother. If three million eagles are obtained, his dilemma will be solved.

When He Changling wanted to know the way to prevent the epidemic, Yang Meng was not stingy and asked Liu Yitie to go to the Governor's Office. The Governor asked about the methods of preventing the epidemic. Yang Meng also knew that his purpose was nothing more than to show his merits. He Changling made contributions, and the Yang family made contributions.

If this immortal person dares to eat alone, Yang Meng will have a way to deal with him.

With the help of Liu Yitie, a very professional note was handed over by He Changling. Mr. He was quite loyal and had no intention of eating alone. Moreover, he was also very proud of the Yang family in the two notes.

If you eat alone, you are afraid that the old ghosts in the Military Affairs Bureau will not be able to see them and make trouble for themselves. Those old people are real traitors. They are the best ability to connect with their followers and suppress dissidents.

He Changling's method is also simple, that is, to make the role of the Yang family irreplaceable. Yunnan epidemic prevention is a big deal. Without the Yang family, the Yunnan government really can't do this.

In the memorial, he raised the role of the Yang family to a very high position. The plague of the Yang family in Yunnan can be blocked. If the Yang family is not there, a major epidemic will break out in Yunnan.

He made it clear that if his promise was not fulfilled and there was a major epidemic in Yunnan, the old ghosts in the Military Affairs Office could not escape. Two memorandums were first and then, and directly reduced their guilt to the lowest level.

When He Changling's memorial was sent to the capital, it was indeed suppressed by the old men from the Military Affairs Office. What a joke? He Changling, who was selling official positions in Yunnan, knew that he would give the memorial, but he didn't know how to give the benefits?

A third-rank general, the official of the Military Affairs Office, can be sure. The green camp's things are nothing but a big street. Not to mention spending money on it, some people are reluctant to ask for it for free. No matter how many such a false hat is promised, it is no problem.

But the position of Yunnan Salt Transportation Commissioner is a fat and oily hat. How many benefits did you have received from Changling? He took a nameless bastard to the position of a third-rank real-time rank, fat and shortage? If you take the money and want to take him to the position, you should have a look of a hint. What is the point of having a memorial but not filial piety?

The big men in the Military Affairs Office took their beards and drooped their eyes, and He Changling's memorial was thrown into a corner. But as soon as the second memorial came, these old men were sitting on wax.

He Changling, a dog, has a good plan. The first note looks ordinary, but with the second note, it is a fatal trap. When the epidemic broke out in Yunnan, everyone here will calculate the other one, and they will all follow the melons.

Fortunately, the journey in Yunnan was long, so I made a statement and fooled it. He Changling's two memorials were handed over that day.

Emperor Daoguang, who was in his sixties, has lived a cowardly life in recent years. Since the Gengzi year, there seems to be no good things. As soon as the foreigners defeated in Gengzi, they rode on the neck of the Qing Dynasty.

The "Pengzihuo Treaty" in the Gengzi year, the "Guangzhou Treaty" in the Xinchou year, the "Jiangning Treaty" in the Renyin year, the "Five-Guang Trading Regulations" in the Guimao year, the "Wangxia Treaty" in the Jiachen year, and the "Huangpu Treaty" in the Huangpu Treaty, and this year, Belgium is here again. There is nothing that makes people happy about this glorious Qing Dynasty.

Looking at today's note, the first one was written by He Changling, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou. Yunnan is a nest of trouble, which is definitely not a good thing! During the prosperous era of Kanggan, Yunnan was a good place. There were 10 to 20 million kilograms of fine copper that arrived in Beijing in a year, and various industries were thriving.

But what about it in the hands of his father and son? The late emperor, Mr. Jiaqing, witnessed the decline of Yunnan. First, the copper class was not good, and then the continuous civil unrest. The great Yunnan has now become a bottomless pit, and even the military salary cannot be obtained. The court and surrounding provinces also need support.

It was definitely not a good thing that He Changling had submitted a memorial. He was in a bad mood, but after such a fuss, His Majesty Daoguang's old face was so gloomy that it was about to squeeze out the water.

State affairs are the most important, and the ministers submitted memorials, but the emperors had to ignore them. He picked up He Changling's first memorial and read it carefully.

"Something interesting..."

The Yang family father and son were born in Yunnan. What they did was good and worth commendable, but the official position granted by He Changling was a bit stupid. For such a righteous man, just give him a false position. Let a businessman take charge of the salt industry in Yunnan. Isn’t this a matter of nothing to find trouble?

Just as he was about to approve and scold He Changling, the second note of the Governor of Yunnan and Guizhou fell into his eyes again. His Majesty Daoguang put down the red pen that had been lifted, picked up the second note, and slowly stretched out his frown, and his mood was getting better and better.

"Okay! Destroy the family to relieve the difficulties, benevolent and filial Yang family!"

The old man in his sixties shouted loudly, which scared the eunuchs and palace maids around him. What happened again? He thought the emperor was so angry that he shouted like this.

Looking at the silences around him, His Majesty Daoguang was in a good mood and laughed happily "haha".

If... if the people of the Qing Dynasty were like the father and son of the Yang family, what were the people? The plague that had been raging in Yunnan for nearly a hundred years has come, and the father and son's family will not want it, and the father and son will not want it, destroying the family and helping the difficulties will work together to block the plague, and the results will be extremely obvious. He Changling was unclear and almost buried the talents.

Look at Yang Shiqin, who is a businessman, and when his family is rich, he still does not forget to do good deeds and accumulate virtues to protect the country and the people. Look at the ministers on the southeast coast, they cannot win the war and cannot negotiate. They cry and cry but are too poor, but they are the ones who are poor. The prosperous Qing Dynasty was defeated by these incompetent people.

This matter must be done in a big way, and it will inspire the dizzy officials from all over the country to see how a commoner does things, set an example, so that the 40 million people in the Qing Dynasty will do things according to the Yang family.

"Let the officials of the Military Affairs Office come over to discuss matters."

It is also knowledgeable how to reward. Emperor Daoguang is not a passionate little child. He has been diligent in power for more than 20 years. He Changling's method is just for the Yang family. The court wants to do this so that the people of the entire Qing Dynasty can see that they will not suffer any loss of benevolence, filial piety and loyalty to the Qing Dynasty.

The old men of the Military Affairs Office wiped away the cold sweat on their heads. Fortunately, the emperor was only happy and did not mention the memorial, otherwise he would have been cheated by He Changling's dog.

The monarch and ministers discussed it together, and the official position was handled as He Changling said, but Yang Shiqin was given a title of hereditary first-class man. Otherwise, the reward would be given to him, his son was the same as my own official position. Although the Green Camp general was not a good thing, it was so unpleasant!

It is easy to be granted an official but it is difficult to reward it. The Yang family spent a lot of money on epidemic prevention, and millions of taels of silver. The court cannot fill this hole, but if it does not reward it, the court will lose its face.

With the anger in his stomach, the old men from the Military Affairs Office also took out great measures and made a big mistake and handed over the copper class in Yunnan to the Yang family.

Aren’t you Yang Shiqin rich? Are you doing your business well? Didn’t you work with He Changling to cheat us? It just so happened that the copper courses in Yunnan were in decline. I handed over the copper courses in Yunnan to your Yang family. This is an unprecedented kindness!

As the saying goes, salt and iron are not separated, and Yang Shiqin is also good at this. If you do it well, everyone will have a bright face. If you don’t do it well, you will be attacked by your Yang family.

This idea was in line with the emperor's wishes. Yang Shiqin was always a businessman. He gave him a position of governor. He was afraid that he would not be able to take it. He would first take salt and copper classes from Yunnan, and practice his skills. If Yang Shiqin is really a talent, it would not be a matter of one word to promote him when the time comes.

As for the archway of merit, of course, these are indispensable. They have to be told to the world that the Yang family in Yunnan are loyal to the country and destroying their families to relieve the difficulties. The court is also generous. They handed over the bronze courses in Yunnan to the Yang family to manage so that the people of the world can also see the minds of the Qing Dynasty.

His Majesty Daoguang originally wanted to invite Yang Shiqin to commend him in person, but there was a plague in Yunnan, and this idea was rejected by the old ministers.

Unable to see Yang Shiqin's face, His Majesty Daoguang was not stingy. He rewarded many small objects in the palace. He also personally picked up a pen and wrote the eight big words "Destroy the Family and Relieve the Yang Family", and asked the Crafts Office to make a plaque based on this to make the Yang Family glory.
