The Ming Dynasty's Spokesperson

Chapter 222 Making Enemies

As a time-traveler with a relatively simple view of good and evil, Lin Tailai sees the Western merchants as being on the same level as the Donglin Party.

From a purely commercial perspective, Western merchants were undoubtedly very successful, and could even extend this success across dynasties for three hundred years.

But a lot of things, not just business.

Zhang Siwei was born in one of the top families of today's Western merchants. Some clues can be seen from Zhang Siwei's character about the behavioral logic of Western merchants' "developing frontier economies and promoting national unity" in the next few decades.

After Lin Tailai grasped the information gap, he thought for a moment and quickly turned around in his mind.

It is very simple to make profits by taking advantage of the information gap. It is a time traveler's city. But how to maximize benefits is a science.

With so many people watching on the shore, Lin Daguan didn't have much time to think about it, so he could only make a decision immediately.

If you don't take a stand anymore, others will think that you are just like some chief minister who can't hold up the wall, and just give up!

"Hahahaha!" Lin Tailai looked up to the sky and laughed several times, attracting the attention of dozens of people present.

Then Lin Tailai pointed his finger at Magistrate Zhu in a very offensive manner and said loudly:

"Just now I saw Governor Zhu resisting and contradicting Futai. I thought that Governor Zhu suddenly became upright and upright!

It turns out that because of the support of Lao Tongnian, Zhang Fengpan, the old Prime Minister of Hedong, was quickly reinstated, so Zhu Taishou had the courage! "

After Lin Tailai said these few words, dozens of people present were shocked.

According to the unspoken rules of today's officialdom, even if you know who is behind someone else's backstage, you will not name them publicly and just pretend not to know.

This is called leaving a line between people so that they can meet each other easily in the future.

If something unlucky happens in the future, the other party's backstage can also stop it and not engage in political pursuit.

Although Lin Daguanren is not an official, but he is so deeply involved in government affairs, who in Suzhou City can not treat him as a member of the officialdom?

But just now, Lin Tailai directly revealed the name "Zhang Fengpan" in front of all the officials and gentry representatives in Suzhou City, which was very surprising.

If you are not an outsider among outsiders, if you are not a top-notch idiot, you will never be able to do such a thing!

Just think about it, if Zhang Fengpan returns to the court and becomes the chief minister, can he let such a person go?

Even Zhifu Zhu was so burnt on the outside and tender on the inside that he didn't react for a moment.

Lin Tailai didn't seem to know what a "weird" statement he made. He turned to the local gentry representative and continued:

"Everyone must also know about the crimes of our Dongting Xishan Xi family.

And I, Lin Tailai, was so persecuted by the Xi family that I almost had trouble returning home, and was directly betrayed to the Nanjing army!

It can be said that the problem of the Xi family is not just that they forget their righteousness at the sight of profit, but that they only have profit in mind and no righteousness at all!

Because of my own experiences, I, Lin Tailai, now deeply hate people and families like the Xi family! "

Listening to Lin Tailai scolding the Xi family, no one present dared to refute. After all, this matter has been determined from the private sector to the government. Anyone who wants to reverse the verdict will make a mistake.

It's just that everyone doesn't quite understand why Lin Tailai suddenly started scolding the Xi family again?

I also heard Lin Daguan say: "Compared with the Zhang family, a giant businessman in Puzhou, and the Xi family in Xishan, Dongting, they are similar in their beneficial and unjust nature, and they are even more evil than the Xi family!

As a former victim of a wealthy merchant family, I, Lin Tailai, felt disgust and discomfort from the bottom of my heart when I heard that Zhang Fengpan had returned to the court as the chief minister!

The center of our Ming Dynasty should not be manipulated by people who are beneficial and unjust! "

At this time, everyone just felt that Lin Daguanren's reaction was a bit excessive, right?

Just because you were "trapped" by the Xi family, a wealthy businessman, so after hearing the good news about the Zhang family, another wealthy businessman in the far north, you began to feel physically and psychologically unwell?

Of course, as a former victim, Lin Daguanren has no problem raising the banner of "opposing what is beneficial but not just".

Finally, Lin Daguan raised his voice again and said: "But I, Lin Tailai, will never feel afraid just because I face evil power!

I, Lin Tailai, never bother to hide my opinions and intentions!

I, Lin Tailai, publicly declare here that I oppose Zhang Fengpan’s involvement in Suzhou City!

I, Lin Tailai, publicly declare here that I oppose all Zhang Fengpan’s minions in Suzhou City! "

Impassioned and majestic! Without listening to the content but only the tone, I would have thought that Mr. Lin was sacrificing his life for righteousness and righteousness.

The local gentry present felt that Lin Jieyuan's speech was extremely extreme and not moderate enough, but it seemed to exude unique charm and provocation, making people want to shout along.

Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, at least he is a decent person, at least he is a brave person, exuding dazzling brilliance.

Magistrate Zhu was furious and sternly scolded: "You bastard! Here are all the imperial officials, how come there are some official's minions!

If you dare to speak nonsense and malicious abuse again, I will report to the imperial court and deprive you of all honors and errands! "

Lin Tailai ignored Magistrate Zhu and said to other officials: "I heard that whenever a major event occurs in the court, the ministers will be gathered together to discuss it and make a public decision!

Nowadays, the governor and the prefect have different opinions on the matter of Jinongcang, and it is difficult to reach a conclusion.

It just so happens that the chief officials of the yamen of the first prefecture and two counties of Suzhou City and all the princes are here, so I think it might as well be brought to justice! "

Lin Tailai then picked up an honor guard badge and drew a line between Governor Zhao and Magistrate Zhu.

Then Lin Tailai said to the officials: "Those who agree with the prefect and continue to take the Jinong warehouse back to the government office, stand over there;

Those who support the governor and let the government government delegate power to the agricultural warehouse are standing here!

Discuss the matter as it is, please express your stance with public conscience! "

The principal and secondary officials of one prefecture and two counties, apart from Magistrate Zhu, are Han Tongzhi, Zhang Tongpan and Liu Tuiguan of Suzhou Prefecture, Magistrate Deng and Magistrate Guo of Wuxian County, Magistrate Yuan and Magistrate Liu of Changzhou County, etc. .

As for other officials, governors, governors, etc., they cannot take the stage in this decision-making situation.

Guo Xiancheng of Wu County did not hesitate and was the first to side with the governor.

Because he had no choice, since Lin Tailai launched a large-scale western expedition and attacked the Three Halls Alliance in Mudu Town, everyone knew that Guo Xiancheng was the agent of Lin Tailai and Shen Jizi, and he could only go all the way.

The second one was Yuan Zhixian, a great writer, who also sided with the governor.

If he wants to carry out political achievements that will leave a name for future generations, he must support the governor and Lin Tailai.

Besides, as a literary and artistic celebrity, he also had the confidence to disobey the superior magistrate. At worst, he would quit his job and travel around the mountains and forests to develop his influence in the literary world.

Prefectural government officials Han Tongzhi and Zhang Tongpan did not hesitate too much and stood on the side of the prefect.

After Wu County's magistrate Deng hesitated for a long time, he still couldn't stand the disgust he felt towards Lin Tailai and the temptation of Zhang Fengpan's reinstatement as chief assistant, so he sided with the magistrate.

Then the Prime Minister of Liu County of Changzhou County also came to the side of the prefect.

Now only Liu Tuiguan from the government office is left, which makes everyone a little confused, and they don't know what he is hesitating about.

As a government official who had been tormented by Lin Tailai many times and who was often troubled by Lin Tailai's cases, in everyone's eyes, Liu Tuiguan should naturally side with the prefect.

But at the end of the hesitation, Liu Tuiguan actually sided with the governor, unlike all other government officials such as the prefect, tongzhi, and tongsuan.

Now the camp is completely clear. On one side are Han Tongzhi and Zhang Tongpan of Suzhou Prefecture, Deng Zhixian of Wu County, and Liu County Cheng of Changzhou County.

On the other side are Yuan Zhixian of Changzhou County, Guo County Cheng of Wu County, and Liu Tuiguan of the government office.

No one understood why Lin Tailai divided the camps so clearly.

Could it be that it was just to make the feud more intense and the struggle more intense? What good would that do to Lin Tailai?

It is simply a deliberate attempt to create enemies for the sake of creating enemies, with no clear profit goal at all!

Or is it that after many great victories, Lin Jieyuan has become so arrogant that he believes that as long as he creates an enemy camp, he can definitely eliminate it regardless of logic or not?

Only Lin Tailai muttered loudly: "I didn't expect that Zhang Fengpan has so many minions in Suzhou City. They are all leftover poisons that need to be cleaned up in the future."

Let’s make up for yesterday’s stuff first, there are still some left today.
