The Zhang family in Jinling is not an ordinary wealthy family, but one of the most powerful families in the entire Jiangnan.
Not only have there been many high-ranking officials, but the family¡¯s children are all over the government and the public. In the entire Jiangnan, from top to bottom, almost all officials, big and small, are related to the Zhang family.
And the Zhang family is very rich. In the past, the Zhang family got together with the salt merchants and controlled more than a dozen salt farms in Huaihai, relying on the salt industry to bring huge wealth.
In addition, Jiangnan is also involved in the grain, cloth, tea and other businesses, which has created the Zhang family as a top wealthy family.
However, at this moment, the Zhang Mansion was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and Wang Shouren led someone to carry Zhang Yuanting, who was wearing thin clothes, to the door of the Zhang family.
"Blow the door open and ransack the house~"
Wang Shouren looked at the closed door. The large copper nails on it were neatly arranged. The big drum at the door showed the prominence and scholarly atmosphere of the Zhang family.
It¡¯s just that such a big family is just a moth parasitic on this huge empire. It has no effect or contribution on this country. On the contrary, it is constantly sucking blood and eroding this empire.
"Yes~"
When the soldiers next to him heard this, they immediately saluted.
Wang Shouren had stayed in the army for a period of time before, and also led the Ming army to conquer the north and south. Many of the generals in the army are old acquaintances of Wang Shouren, and they were even soldiers under Wang Shouren before.
This time to arrest Zhang Yuanting and Jiang Cheng, Wang Shouren did not use the Nanjing government's agents or servants, because Wang Shouren knew that once these people were used, the matter would be leaked, and then there would be no arrests, not even the shadows. Don't even think about finding it.
Therefore, we quickly cooperated directly with the Nanjing garrison and the officers and soldiers of the East China Sea Fleet Yangtze River Division, mobilized the forces in the army, directly arrested these people, and even came to ransack their homes.
"You can't do this, you can't do this~"
Zhang Yuanting's face was cold and blue at this time, and his nose was dripping with mucus. However, he was wearing shackles and couldn't even wipe it. Looking at the door of his home, he looked extremely excited.
"Boom~"
However, no one paid attention to him. He only heard a loud bang and the door of Zhang Mansion was smashed into pieces. Many servants of Zhang Mansion inside were already scared to death, and their faces were pale.
When he saw Zhang Yuanting being shackled, he started crying even more.
"My son, my son~"
Before the officers and soldiers could rush in, a large group of people emerged from inside. When a white-haired old woman saw Zhang Yuanting in chains, she couldn't help crying and rushed over with all her strength.
"Mother, mother~"
"I'm cold, I'm so cold~"
Seeing his mother, Zhang Yuanting immediately became excited and shouted repeatedly.
"Master Wang, Master Wang, even if my son has committed a huge crime, shouldn't he be given some thick clothes to wear?"
Zhang Yuanting's mother came to Wang Shouren and said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
"You also know that winter is cold~"
"Obviously, we have made a lot of money by running a factory, but we don't pay workers, and they hire gangsters to beat workers who ask for money. Aren't you afraid that these workers with no money will freeze to death on the way home?"
¡°Don¡¯t you know that for those celebrating the New Year, their families are looking forward to them going home early and happily reuniting to celebrate the New Year?¡±
Wang Shouren looked at the Zhang family in front of him and asked.
"Can they compare with my son?"
"My son is a dignified scholar. They are just a bunch of mud-legged people. Giving them food and shelter is enough for them. It's not like they won't pay them, they're just in arrears for one year."
"You must treat my son like this. Although my husband is dead, there are still many friends and fellow villagers in the court who are of the same age. When the time comes, I must take a good look at your Lord Wang's book."
"I don't believe that the Ming Dynasty has no king's law, and you, the king, are allowed to bully me, an orphan and a widowed mother."
??The old lady is gorgeously dressed and has an extraordinary bearing. It is obvious at a glance that she is not an old lady from a small family. Looking at Wang Shouren in front of her, she does not lose the momentum at all.
"Wang Fa?"
"You still know the king's law."
Wang Shouren sneered, and then coldly ordered: "Search for me and move out all the valuable things."
Following Wang Shouren's order, numerous officers and soldiers immediately rushed into Zhang's mansion.
"I wonder which of you dares?"
But I don¡¯t want this old lady to take itAlright~"
When many workers heard this, they couldn't help but cheered. They all wanted to fly home right now.
"Zhang San~"
"Li Si~"
"Wang Wu~"
With the shouts of officials and government servants, each worker came forward to receive his wages, and then quickly returned to his dormitory to pack his baggage.
"Haha, go home, go home~"
¡°I will never come to Jinling again~¡±
After getting their wages, these workers shouted excitedly.
Scenes like this were happening in every factory. A large number of workers got their wages and soon walked together with each other. They left here along the roads leading to all directions and began to return to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year. .
As for those who were injured like Ding Laosan, they not only received their wages, but Wang Shouren also specially paid them a huge compensation, which was enough for them to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Because these workers got their wages, the entire Jinling City suddenly disappeared. A large number of shops also took the opportunity to open quickly, hoping to sell the New Year goods they had accumulated early.
"Hoo~"
"Finally, this matter has been stabilized."
Looking at the workers on the roads going home in groups to celebrate the New Year, Wang Shouren couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. But thinking about what was going to happen next, he became worried again, not knowing what the emperor would do with him. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
