What does "everyone was arrested by me" mean? It seems that "I" is not something everyone can call themselves in the Central Plains, right? Who is this "little manager"?

When the eight big profiteers heard what the "little steward" said in Chinese, they were all stunned. But while they were in a daze, sixteen warriors in front of the tent had already broken in from outside the tent. The leader was "the most loyal man in the Ming Dynasty".

"Li Zicheng.

Sixteen warriors, working in pairs of two, caught one profiteer in one group, and captured eight profiteers as if they were catching chickens. They knelt in a line in front of the "little steward", Zhu Youjian, the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Youjian smiled and looked at the eight traitorous businessmen he had caught by "fishing", and naturally he felt extremely happy!

To be on Nizi's blacklist, these eight big profiteers must have a net worth of several million, right? Otherwise, how can they be in Nizi's eyes? Develop Xingzhou, Huizhou, Yingzhou, and Wuliangha,

The expenses for Duoyan's two thousand households depend on the eight of you.

"Hahaha, I've known for a long time that the eight of you are traitorous businessmen who want to sell my Ming Dynasty to the Jianzhou slave thieves. I couldn't spare the time to catch you before, but now I finally have some time. I'm going to use a little plan to do it.

I’ve taken you away...what else do you have to say?”

After hearing Zhu Youjian's words, the eight future imperial merchants were all shocked! It turned out that the young man in front of them was the legendary young emperor of the Ming Dynasty who was "brave against Lu Bu, as cunning as Zhongda, and as ruthless as Cao Cao"!

But what kind of medicine did the little emperor take wrongly? Instead of staying in the Imperial City of Xuanfu, he went to Xinghe City outside the Great Wall to design small businessmen of his own?

And... why does this little emperor say that we want to sell the Ming Dynasty to the Kingdom of Jin? It’s nothing! What an injustice!

Oh, not all, not all. This is the first year of Chongzhen, not the seventeenth year of Chongzhen. The Later Jin Kingdom was just able to barely reach Zhangjiakou. Before that, there was Lin Dan between the Later Jin Kingdom and Zhangjiakou.

Even if the eight profiteers of Batur intend to betray the country, they have no way of betraying the country. At most, they have some business dealings with Shenyang in a roundabout way. It may be enough to communicate with them, but there is no way to betray the country.

In fact, even if it's a thoroughfare, the business is not very big. You can't reach both sides, and you have to pass through the Mongolian territory. How much business can there be?

Even in the first year of Chongzhen, there were only three traitors, Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, and Jin Liangyu. The remaining five were still wandering between traitors and Tongfan... After all, betraying the country is not selling cabbage. You must be cautious.

!

You have to clearly see the strength and weakness of Ming Dynasty and Jin Dynasty before you can gamble your wealth and life!

These eight profiteers all have a fortune, not even a few million, but they can get away with a fortune of two to three hundred thousand taels. Even in the early years of Chongzhen, they were still very wealthy. How can they gamble their wealth if they don't see the situation clearly?

Before June of the first year of Chongzhen, the trend between the Ming Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty was still very clear. The Ming Dynasty was getting weaker day by day, while the Jin Dynasty was prospering. Although the Ming Dynasty would not necessarily fall and the Jin Dynasty would rise, the Jin Dynasty had reached

The level of the Liao Kingdom in the past was still very promising. Under this trend, Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, and Jin Liangyu would develop from Tongfan to traitor, serving as internal agents of the Later Jin Dynasty and leading the way for the Later Jin Dynasty.

However, after June of the first year of Chongzhen, the situation between Ming Dynasty and Jin Dynasty suddenly changed. The little emperor of Chongzhen, who had started to hang around after killing Wei Zhongxian with a sword, suddenly broke out and transformed into "a brave man against Lu Bu, a treacherous man like Zhongda."

The ruthless little emperor is as ruthless as a thief... Of course the traitorous business must be slowed down!

Therefore, except for Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, and Jin Liangyu who had already boarded the pirate ship, the other five profiteers had already retreated, so they all agreed to stop betraying the country.

And Tong Gifan... Although it is also a serious crime, the real big profiteers all have ways to deal with it. Can you become a big profiteer without such connections?

But the problem is, the one who caught them this time was the Little Emperor of Ming Dynasty himself!

It seems that he is the biggest in the Ming Dynasty. If he is caught, is there any way out?

"Li Zicheng," Zhu Youjian said to Li Zicheng with a smile, "drug down the traitor named Fan Yongdou, torture him severely, identify his accomplices, and then report it to me."

"Got the order!"

Li Zicheng and his eldest nephew Li Jin lost the profiteer they had caught and replaced him with Fan Yongdou, who was pointed by Zhu Youjian. They dragged him out to find a place to torture him - Zhu Youjian didn't actually know that this guy had betrayed the country.

(It doesn't mean anything if he brags that he is Fan Wencheng's relative. Profiteers love bragging!). But he knew that the traitor had specially ordered to capture this guy and go to Lingchi, so he gave Fan Yongdou a special treatment.

Seeing Fan Yongdou being dragged out like this, the remaining seven profiteers were so frightened that they could not speak. Among them, Wang Dengku and Jin Liangyu were the worst. They were all traitorous accomplices of Fan Yongdou! So they were frightened to death on the spot.

...

Smelling the smell of urine, Zhu Youjian glanced at the seven profiteers in front of him with cold eyes, "I know profiteers best, so I know that you all have connections and backing... You need to

Otherwise, with your strength, how can you dare to betray the country? Let’s talk about it, and give all the money you earn to your family?”

Zhu Youjian's words are absolutely true! Although he doesn't know how to do business, he really understands profiteers! The treacherous son is the richest in the Ming Dynasty, the third prince is the loan king of the Ming Dynasty, and the fifth filial son is the stock king of the Ming Dynasty. They are adopted.

Lao Liu was the charter king of the Ming Dynasty, and his in-law Zheng Zhilong was also the richest man in the Ming Dynasty... How could he not know where these profiteers who had killed thousands of people were?

"Wan, Wan, Long Live Lord, I'm so unjust!"

"Long live my lord, I'm not a traitor to my country, and I don't have any backing..."

"Long live my lord, I am just a small business owner..."

"Long live my Lord...it's unfair!"

"Forgive me..."

Except for Wang Dengku and Jin Liangyu, who were already scared to death, the other five profiteers were pretending to be pitiful and begging for mercy...but they refused to explain who was behind them.

Because if you confess, you will lose any chance of survival! If you don't confess... you might still be able to save your life.

Zhu Youjian, who knew the most about profiteers, just smiled coldly: "You refuse to confess? Fine, let's wait... wait until Fan Yongdou confesses. If you and him are in the same party, then there is nothing to say. They are traitors to the country.

Of course he will be put to death in a cold manner!"

"ah!"

Someone was already screaming and fainting. Zhu Youjian took a look at that person and found that it was Wang Dengku.

"Haha," the little emperor smiled, "It seems that he has a share in Tongfan's betrayal of the country... Well, we will go back to the road with Fan Yongdou!"

He looked at the remaining six profiteers with a sinister look, and said slowly: "As for you...as long as you are not Fan Yongdou's accomplice, we will not kill you for the time being, but just ransack each other's homes! You guys raid each other...

.After copying, you will reconcile the accounts. If the accounts are not correct, you will be beheaded! If you find out what is wrong, you will live! If the accounts can be correct, haha, it depends on how many accomplices and backers you can explain! If you explain enough, you will survive.

, if it’s not enough, I’ll kill your heads!”

How much confession is enough?

Zhu Youjian won’t tell! How can we behead them if we tell them? If we don’t kill their heads, how can we scare their backers and accomplices?

This Zhu Youjian must be more vicious than his traitorous son!

He is the original feudal emperor, so of course he is ruthless!

Moreover, he grew up in an imperial family with little humanity. When he was five years old, his own mother was killed by his own father... Now he is most likely the most ruthless in the Ming Dynasty!

Of course, Zhu Youjian would not kill the comrades they confessed to betraying. Because he knew profiteers best and knew that these people would bite them randomly in order to survive. If he killed them all indiscriminately, he would be a fool.

.

But Zhu Youjian will not let those people go...at least not all of them, because he needs his own imperial business group to operate a huge industry.

Now the internal transportation warehouse is short of cash, but there is no shortage of assets... If various assets can be operated well, it will not be a problem to earn several million a year. That is a "flood"! But now
