Chapter 118 Officials force the people to rebel

In the eyes of mothers, children will become wild when they grow up and then run around.

A stronger child will bring a pack of treasures and drag a beautiful daughter-in-law back to see her.

Children who are in a middle-aged position can also bring cakes and snacks to see her.

Although the unlucky child returned home with nothing and shyness, it was the most distressing thing for his mother.

After all, when a person returns, it is the greatest blessing for his parents.

The New Year has just passed, and the joyful atmosphere of the festival has not completely disappeared. Yunjiazhuang is covered with dark clouds and crying.

A caravan leaving Gansu did not return as scheduled, and the respondents who stayed at the Qinzhou Post Station also lost their news.

The main personnel of the Yun family caravan are young people from Yun family Zhuangzi. This is the first time to go to Gansu, and the target goods are copper from Gansu!

Since the Jiajing year, the national treasury has gradually become empty. In order to support the national cost, Yan Song and others have used almost all the means that can be used.

Including opening up new sources of wealth.

Among them, the one who suffered the least losses to the court and made the most profit was the famous "Bronze Government!"

In the 25th year of Jiajing, the copper purchased for 390,000 taels of silver could be minted nine hundred million yuan, worth 750,000 taels of silver.

This is almost double the profit.

The copper purchased from Lantian County, after casting it into copper coins, the cost of every thousand coins is seven cents of silver.

The Fufeng Money Casting Bureau's minting technology far exceeds the two major Money Casting Bureaus in the capital, and the cost is almost 60% of the cost of the money minting bureau in the capital.

Gansu copper, Guizhou lead, and scrap copper, waste coins are the main sources of Yun's coin minting.

Just from the geographical point of view, it is cheaper than the Japanese copper, Yunnan copper and Guizhou lead used by the Beijing Money Making Bureau.

In this situation, the benefits obtained by Yun's minting are far less than those of the Beijing Money Making Bureau. There is only one reason-the copper coins cast by Fufeng County Money Making Bureau are much higher in copper content than the copper coins cast by Beijing.

The copper coins, copper, lead and tin cast by Fufeng County Coin Casting Bureau are the dynasty practices - copper four and lead and tin six.

This is a business that can be done in the long run and is the privilege of the ruler.

At the same time, it is also a sharp weapon that Yun Zhao has high expectations.

The copper production area in Gansu is located in Baiyin Factory a hundred miles northeast of Lanzhou Wei!

The Silver Factory was originally a copper mine developed by the Ming Dynasty during the Jiajing period. Because of its poor geographical location and low copper production, it was seriously ignored by the court.

But Yun Zhao knew about this place. After all, he had attended a celebration where the copper production exceeded 300,000 tons.

Therefore, after the Lantian County boundary monument included Fufeng County, thousands of craftsmen were waiting for dinner in the huge Fufeng Money Casting Bureau, and Yun Zhao restarted the dilapidated Money Casting Bureau.

Although Yun's family collected a lot of old money from all dynasties, it was not a long-term solution to supply a huge minting bureau, so Yun's family invested a lot of manpower to rebuild the silver factory.

Now, there is no news about this silver factory.

"The last news comes from the second day of October. The local managers have reported that the copper production for the whole year has been completed. This is the list of awards they have reported."

Xu Wu wanted to hand over a document to Yun Zhao.

After reading it, Yun Zhao said, "There is my review on it, which means I approved their request, why is there no subsequent text?"

Xu Wu thought: "Rewards are generally issued in Lantian County, which means they need to be issued after they come back.

Now, they are not back.”

"Has the people who are looking for them sent out?"

"It's gone."

Yun Zhao sighed and said, "Our reaction is too slow. According to the worst case scenario, they have been suffering for three months."

"Don't worry, our scouts in Baoji have already set off yesterday. Our headquarters dispatched two hundred cavalry this time, led by Uncle Bao. No matter who ruins our people and affairs, we will make him pay the price."

Yun Zhao said anxiously: "I hate revenge! We should strive to be the target of others' revenge, rather than we work hard to take revenge!"

Xu Wu thought, "Uncle Bao will handle it."

Yun Zhao held the table and said, "Prepare the horse, I'll take a trip myself."

Xu Wu thought, "County Master, this is probably someone's plan to lead a snake out of the cave."

Yun Zhao sneered and said, "I'm a giant python!

There are twenty-eight children of this clan in Baiyin Factory. These twenty-eight people drink salt water, eat dry food, and drill mine caves in the barren mountains and rivers. The contributions they have made to our Lantian County are no less than those of marching and fighting.

Now, they have not come back for the New Year, and their life and death are unknown. Listen to the crying outside, their families are crying. If possible, I want to find them myself."

Xu Wu thought: "If you want to leave Yushan City, you must first obtain the consent of seven elders of this clan. Among them, the opinions of Yianren and Uncle Meng and Uncle Fu are the most important."

Yun Zhao said: "Actually, my mother's opinion is the most important, right?"

Xu Wu thought, "Of course, An Rencai is the leader of the clan."

Yun Zhao got up and left the study room, stood in the yard and listened to the faint crying sounds for a while, and then went straight to the backyard.

Yun Niang's room was full of people, and everyone was crying in a low voice, only Yun Niang comforted them with a calm voice.

Seeing Yun Zhao coming in, Yun Niang threw a jade Ruyi in her hand over. Yun Zhao reached out to catch Yu Ruyi and put it to her mother and said, "You are going to the Silver Factory now to see where what happened."

Yun Niang stamped her feet and said, "I don't want you to take revenge. I want you to bring all the people back, pay the money, and apologize to you. After bringing the people back, you can do something else.

Your face is not as precious as twenty-eight lives!”

Yun Zhao knelt down on one knee and received his mother's order, and then said to the Yun woman who was kneeling on the ground: "Wait, I'll go back."

After saying that, he left the Yun family mansion.

After Yun Zhao left, Yun Meng and Xu Wuxiang were already standing outside the gate. Yun Meng looked at Yun Zhao and said, "The hearts of the children of this clan cannot be cold anymore, you should go.

Yun Yang will accompany you, Uncle Liu will go out, and I will order you two hundred cavalrymen of this tribe for you, go early and return soon."

Yun Zhao took the reins and asked coldly: "The biggest bandit in Lanzhou Wei area is Shooting the sky. Have you sent someone?"

"Yunxiao has sent an envoy to inquire about this."

"If he has any suspicion, he will be destroyed."

After Yun Zhao finished speaking, he got on the horse, shook the reins, and left the city.

As soon as he left the city, Yun Yang and two hundred cavalrymen silently surrounded Yun Zhao in the innermost part. The Master Luo, who was running in the front, understood Yun Zhao's mood at this time. He pressed the horse team at the speed of a long-distance marching and slowly embarked on the Fenghuang Mountain Road.

Until now, Yun Zhao's roots are still the descendants of the Yun clan.

These people are also the foundation of his establishment, that is, these people are unconditionally living and dying for him, and they have no different intentions.

Yun Zhao understood that there would be no unreasonable contributions or loyalty in this world.

Even if it is a relative, they hope to get rewards while giving.

At this time, when talking about money among relatives, you will fall into the inferior.

As the earliest group of followers and beneficiaries, they need to get more care and attention from Yun Zhao.

Over the years, as the number of children of Yushan Academy grew up, they have begun to penetrate into the power circle centered on Yun Zhao.

Yun Zhao also seemed to be consciously reducing the proportion of Yun's children in the power circle.

The old Old Yun family members have slowly faded out, left the important military and political center, and have begun to arduously open up new paths for the Yun family, such as the Baiyin Factory.

The Silver Factory is located in a wasteland. Once people enter this place to pick copper and smelify copper, they will completely become savages.

The summer is hot, the winter is cold, and the spring breeze is filled with yellow sand... The twenty-eight of them have been staying in such an environment for three years.

This year is their first time to go home, and it is also the day when Lantian County is preparing to commend them.

The relatives of the Yun family understand that if they don’t study much and don’t have the ability to do martial arts, they want to create a good future for their children.

I can only go where the hardships and where the dangers are, and try my best to show my own uses to build my own merits.

"I hope they are all alive."

Yun Zhao was in a heavy mood when he was changing horses in Baoji.

Yun Yang said: "I don't understand who will attack them. There is only copper mines there. By October, the last batch of crude copper had been transported back to Lantian County."

Xu Wu wanted to bring food to Yun Zhao, but Yun Yang whispered: "Can it be the miners' riot?"

Yun Zhao was surprised and said, "How could this happen? We use refugees who have no way to survive in the Baiyin Factory.

We paid a good salary!”

Xu Wu wanted to continue whispering: "The environment there is harsh and the transportation is inconvenient. Yun Fang, the manager of the Baiyin Factory, can complete the production of one year in ten months, which is somewhat unreasonable.

Moreover, I have calculated the output of the silver factory. Five hundred thousand kilograms of crude copper per year is the limit of their ability. If they are eager for quick success or instant benefits, they will not treat people as human beings.

So, I predicted that Yunfang's method made a mistake, and the county's assessment of Baiyin Factory was a three-year big test, or even... "

Yun Zhao stared at Xu Wu and thought, "You want to say, my Yun family is doing something that officials are forcing the people to rebel?"

Xu Wu wanted to say lightly: "I'm just talking about a possibility. What's going on? I have to go to the Silver Factory to find out."
