Chapter 240 The Merchant Ship Was Hijacked
Knowing that she was going back to the palace soon, Yinyi was relieved, it was too painful to be with Khan Ama all day long, what's so good about Khan Ama's face?It's better to play around with my niece.
Kangxi's leaving the palace this time is indeed not a simple trip to lose weight. There is a prince in the court, and Yinfeng has handled the government affairs with him for more than 20 years, and he is able to do a job with ease.It can be handled properly without looking at it.
Galdan has been removed, and although Qinghai is not peaceful, it is still within the controllable range.
Although there are two voices among the people, the voices against the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty have not stopped, but with the continuous advancement of large-scale production and improved varieties in recent years, the people's recognition of the imperial court has become higher and higher, and their sense of belonging has become stronger and stronger.According to Yinzhen's more serious temperament, after the payment is made this time, there must be no one in ten.
Although there have been occasional natural disasters in recent years, they are not major problems. Compared with the continuous disasters in the previous dynasty, it is obvious that God is on his side.
It can be said that Kangxi looked at the Qing Dynasty at this time, and felt that he had no opponents.
For this reason, Longkodo played tricks behind his back. What Kangxi was angry about was that his cousin was completely abolished. After all, Tong's family was his mother's family. The support and help of his two uncles for many years made him unable to see the decline of his mother's family.What's more, although the cousin said that she didn't care, she also hoped that the family could get up again.
After being angry, Kangxi had completely lost any affection for this cousin. Kangxi handed over this matter to Yinzhen directly, while he continued to hide behind and deal with some things that could not be put in the court.
Kangxi learned the news that the merchant ships were coming back earlier than Yinzhen. The coastal area was attacked by Japanese pirates. Since the previous dynasty, ordinary people have disappeared and people have been attacked in the coastal area...
In the past, he couldn't make a move, but now...the news sent back by the disciples sent by Kangxi to Yinzhen's caravan made Kangxi extremely angry.
These Japanese lived at sea for a long time, and even occupied islands along the coast of the Qing Dynasty, seized women, burned, killed and looted, causing countless tragedies, and the number reached the point where Kangxi could not bear it.These people are entrenched around the Qing Dynasty, and Kangxi thinks it is a threat.It is Wa country's provocation to itself.
As an emperor, as a Mingjun, Kangxi couldn't bear it, and didn't want to bear it.It is his nature to seek vengeance.
Just a few years ago, Dai Zi improved the [-]-piece burst firecracker he studied. Now, whether it is the range support, the lightness of the rear attack, and the lightness of the firecracker, it has reached a level that Kangxi never thought of.
He once experimented in the Changchun Garden, a firecracker is a girl who has no strength to restrain a chicken, as long as her hand is steady and her eyes are good, it is not a problem to kill a dozen strong men.
When Dai Zi first researched it, Kangxi was a little scared, and he even wanted to destroy these terrible weapons... But after overseas reports of their research on firearms kept coming, Kangxi became afraid, and then developed strange ambitions.
It's just that the Qing Dynasty paid attention to propriety, justice, integrity and shame, and Kangxi felt superior to others, and didn't want to oppress and humiliate other countries like those small barbarian countries.
But for the Japanese who invaded the Qing Dynasty, and the not-so-good Goguryeo Rakshasa and other countries, Kangxi wanted to deter and deter.So he secretly trained a water army, fully equipped, and then... snatched back these chassis.Today's "Japanese pirates" have long been beyond recognition.
He didn't even tell Yinfeng about this.He started this round a few years ago.For this reason, Yinzhen's filial piety over the years and ninety-five percent of his private treasury have been spent by him.
Yaqi didn't know what she knew, but she just learned that Kangxi didn't like Japanese pirates, but after being full of malice, she felt happy.
As soon as she was in a happy mood, Yaqi began to think about it, and then suddenly said pleasantly: "According to the time, Xiao Jiu's merchant ship is coming back, and he also promised to help me find some novelties."
"That's right! They said they wanted to get you some kind of crown and scepter for Khan Ama, but what's the meaning of those fancy things?" The imperial concubine nodded, then wondered.Foreigners like to show off, and the imperial concubine doesn't like it very much.
Yaqi thinks about Kangxi's current state, thinks about the crown and scepter, thinks that the king seems to be bald, and Kangxi is no different, so he said: "Maybe it's not bad? After all, Khan Ama is not fat now. Yes. When you are energetic, you look good in anything you wear.”
"I hope! I don't want to join in the fun if my eyes are too hot." The imperial concubine said casually.
When Yaqi talked about merchant ships, Yinzhen in the palace was also looking forward to it, even the princes who followed him were all looking forward to it.
But when the merchant ship was about to approach the Qing Dynasty, it was ambushed by a group of "Japanese people". They were well-equipped and even had undercover agents on board early on.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, all thirty merchant ships disappeared again, together with the priceless cargo on them.
When Yinzhen got the news, he was checking the studies of his younger brothers and sisters, so he jumped up and wanted to go out of the palace to find out.
"Ninth brother!" Yinfeng sent someone to stop him, and scolded him, "Why panic? Do you still have a bit of the reservedness of the Qing emperor?"
"If you want to be reserved, you should be reserved. I can't be reserved. I have millions of goods on it. If I lose it, this life will be over." Yinzhen has gained sweetness from going to sea a few times before, so this time the investment is even bigger .There are also other people's elements, which contain almost all of his belongings.
Yinzhen even thought about leading the team by himself, but he was never allowed.Now that something happened, can he not panic?
"But what's the use of being in a hurry now?" Yinfeng sighed, seeing that the ninth younger brother was about to cry, he calmly comforted him: "Under the eyes of everyone, it is a provocation against the Qing Dynasty. You are alone in the matter, and I will report to Khan Ama."
After finishing speaking, he asked someone to push Yinzhen to Yifei's palace and let Yifei lock him up.
Yinzhen is really going crazy. After so many years of hard work, he raised this merchant ship by himself.
All at once, not only did they lose all their belongings, they even owed a lot to their brothers, and even borrowed 100 million from the household department. Even if the fourth and tenth brothers didn't have to pay it back, what about the others?What about Tobe?
"You're fine, you're better than anything else." Concubine Yi slapped her ferocious son, then hugged him and cried, "Fortunately, you Khan Ama didn't allow you to leave the palace. If something happened to you , how can I live?"
Yinzhen was so angry that she cried, but she couldn't break free, after all, his mother cried even harder.
The merchant ship was robbed, and Yinfeng quickly sent a letter to Kangxi. When Kangxi received the letter, he was shocked and said that he would go back to the palace immediately, but... Yaqi stood close, and found that the corners of his lips seemed to twitch.
"How sad the ninth brother must be!" Yaqi recalled the previous conversation with Kangxi about Japanese pirates. Kangxi confidently said that these are not harmful, and they must pay the price.After being shocked, he said embarrassingly.
Kangxi's eyes drooped, and he said quietly: "There will always be a time for him to take revenge." Yinzhen is a big link in his plan, although he is a little wronged now, it is only temporary.
"I remember that the ninth brother owed a lot of money. Now I can set aside a hundred thousand immediately, and give him an emergency. When I go back, I will collect it. Add the money from your fourth brother, and see if I can recite 20 for the ninth brother. Ten thousand two... I can't let the ninth brother fall." Yaqi turned her head and said to the worried Yin.
Yinbi followed suit and said, "I also have ten million, and I have more wealth in Fujin's hands, or I can borrow it all, and help Brother Jiu to go through this difficulty first." When Brother Jiu has money, he is never stingy. My younger brother can't do the thing of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.
Listening to their discussion and trying their best to help Yinzhen, Kangxi opened his mouth and didn't speak, but he was very relieved.
Because it was a private visit via microservices, the team walked back quickly, but Kangxi must not have sent the letter as fast as he left.
"Gu also prepared 8 taels for you, don't think it's too little, add the fourth couple, and the 5 taels that your fifth brother took out, it's almost [-] taels, He should be able to deal with people outside." After receiving the letter, Yinfeng called Yinzhen over and comforted him.
Yinzhen's gray face suddenly turned red when he saw the consolation from the fourth sister-in-law in the letter, and the lame words of the tenth brother who calculated how much money he had saved for him.
After the first accident, even if he was locked in the palace, he could feel the pressure.There are also concubines who keep coming over to inquire about the news, and even Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong are talking about the difficulties in the eldest brother and third brother's house... He was so angry that he didn't force them to invest money at the beginning, because they wanted to invest. The sister-in-law also deliberately voted less, not wanting to embarrass herself too much.
But now... my brother gave 5 taels, which is the limit he can give. Yinzhen knows that the fourth brother and four sisters-in-law took out 20 taels, and Yinzhen, who did the accounting for the fourth sister-in-law, also knew that it was theirs. The limit, the tenth brother is Chicheng, thinking that he will leave nothing to himself...
Yinzhen suddenly felt that it was not so difficult.
"Not counting the Ministry of Household Affairs, but owed a mere 80 taels, and now I can raise more than 60 taels, and I can still get the rest less than a hundred thousand taels." Yinzhen looked up at the prince and said : "If I owe my second brother within one year, I will pay off the principal with interest. Even the household department, if I ask my second brother to help me, it will not take more than three years to pay it off."
Although his money is a bit tight now, after all, all the money before is pressured up, and now 10,000+ will hurt his muscles and bones, but don't bully the young and poor, he will definitely make a comeback.And the damn Wa country, Master Jiu will never let you go!
"I'm not in a hurry." Yinfeng rubbed his head, 8 taels was already his limit, compared to the fourth and tenth, he was a poor man... No, these two were not very rich, they were all Fujin's dowry , half a catty, and I don't need to envy myself.
Holding the letter, Yinzhen looked at the fourth sister-in-law's hidden guard above, sniffed, and asked to leave the palace.
"Let Concubine Hui and others tell them that within ten days, the young master will return all the capital to them. It's just a small amount of money. See if they are in a hurry." Seeing that Yinzhen had stabilized, Yinfeng nodded and left the palace. A while ago, Yinzhen also specially spoke to Concubine Yi at the Xukun Palace.
Concubine Yi paused, looked at her son's energetic appearance, and said: "I still have some private rooms, I'll give them to you later."
"Where can I use Shangerniang's private room?" Yinzhen smiled and said to himself: "The prince's second elder brother, fifth elder brother, fourth elder brother and fourth sister-in-law, ten younger brothers and ten younger siblings raised money for my son, leaving some odds and ends, son You can get it. Whether it’s the Jiuye Monthly, or the hot pot and barbecue today, as well as the commercial street in Shengjing, and the shops in the south of the Yangtze River, they are all chickens that lay golden eggs. Such a small amount of money can’t overwhelm my son.”
Concubine Yi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, her son's ability to make money is unquestionable, as long as he gets over this hurdle, he will always recover, but he is afraid that he will be hurt because of this.
"Okay, don't be crazy, and you have to control your mouth when you go back, so you can save me from being offended by the few people who treat you well." Yi Fei shook her head and warned.
After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but say in a long-winded way: "If you pay back the money, pay back the money, don't talk too much. If you really can't get along with you, don't talk cheaply. The big deal is that you don't take them to do business in the future. The little elder brothers don't want to ask you If you want money, it’s because their mothers have shallow eyes. They don’t have much money, so they all send people to say that they don’t need to pay back. If you meet them, just smile and say something nice.”
After finishing speaking, he saw that his son didn't seem to be listening, and sighed: "Since your heart is gone, let's go! Go back and comfort you Fujin, she is still pregnant with a child! If you have any difficulties, come to Erniang, Even if Erniang doesn't, you're still an elder brother! I've done a lot of filial piety to you Khan Ama over the years, so he won't stop making decisions for you."
Yes, Khan Ama!
Yinzhen squinted her eyes, thinking that the fourth brother and ten younger brothers had emptied their entire family, so Khan Ama wouldn't have nothing to lose, right?Why don't you write a letter and cry poor?Didn't the fourth sister-in-law say that children who can act like a baby are the best?
