Chapter 2190: Hangzhou City
"This man is so abominable, Dad, even if you let Shao Yunduan go for now, you can't let him go!"
General Sun glanced at his youngest son and asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Sun Pu smiled sinisterly, "Dad, it's ok for me to send someone to visit my savior, right? Isn't Shao Yunduan stubborn and refuses to admit his evil ambitions? In that case, he is the emperor's subject, and Zheng Sangge is also the emperor's subject. Dad will transfer Zheng Sangge to Wuchang City. What reason does Shao Yunduan have to refuse? What reason does Zheng Sangge have to refuse?"
General Sun nodded in satisfaction. "After all, every experience makes you wiser. You have improved a lot. This is a good idea. Let's do it."
Sun Pu was delighted: "This matter should be dealt with as soon as possible, why don't you send someone right away?"
"Of course!"
After Lord Yang and his party left, no movement was heard from Wuchang City, and Huaixi Province was operating in an orderly manner.
With the current configuration of Huaixi Province in all aspects, there is no need to worry unless Wuchang City uses all its military forces to deal with them.
On this day, a dusty team entered the provincial capital of Huaixi and went to the backyard of the government office to ask to see Mrs. Shao.
It is said that he is from the family of Mr. Zhao Shu.
After receiving the report, Qiao Xuan immediately sent people out to bring them all in, and found a courtyard for them to stay in, so that everyone could rest and meet the three stewards and the accountant.
Uncle Li Jiu smiled wryly as he recounted the group's experiences.
They all came from Hangzhou.
After Zhao Shu took Taotao away from Hangzhou, although he took some people away, dismissed some people, and adjusted some people to other places, there were still many people who remained in Hangzhou.
This is the case with Uncle Li Jiu, Uncle Mo and their families.
After all, Zhao Shu has a lot of businesses in Hangzhou and the surrounding areas, and it is impossible for him to close all of them suddenly.
Even if the Hangzhou prefect's brother-in-law went too far, he would not dare to blatantly seize the Zhao family's shops and land. Otherwise, the merchants in Hangzhou would be in danger.
Furthermore, many materials need to be purchased and transported from Hangzhou and Jiangnan areas, so it is necessary to leave someone there to handle these matters.
Everything was fine originally, but the prefect of Hangzhou became more and more daring, especially after he annexed two small forces in the surrounding areas, he became even more arrogant.
His brother-in-law also became more and more greedy.
There are almost no big merchants in Hangzhou who have not been extorted by the prefect's brother-in-law.
But the amount he extorted was still within the range that each family could barely accept, so they had no choice but to accept it.
Otherwise, who has the ability to fight him?
The prefect's brother-in-law was very proud, but when he thought that he had failed only with Zhao Shu, he was naturally unhappy.
So he started to find fault.
Uncle Li Jiu and the others understood that the young master was purchasing and transporting supplies for Lord Shao, and this was a very important matter. Although the prefect's brother-in-law was a bit disgusting, they had to endure it if they could, and let him take advantage of them if he could.
But the prefect's brother-in-law became more and more aggressive and demanded more and more. Uncle Li Jiu and others tried their best to deal with him, but it seemed that they could not do it anymore.
The prefect's brother-in-law ordered people to check all of Zhao Shu's properties in Hangzhou. When he saw the long list, his eyes almost popped out!
That Zhao Shu is so rich!
This is simply outrageous!
Therefore, he was no longer satisfied with petty trouble-making and extortion. He wanted shops, houses, fertile fields, tea plantations... In one go, he almost took away most of Zhao Shu's properties in Hangzhou.
All of them are the best.
