?Guangxin Mansion is a large mansion, and its prefecture is Shangrao County, and it also has six counties under its jurisdiction: Yushan, Yongfeng, Qianshan, Xing'an, Yiyang, and Guixi.
The magistrate Xie Lijing did not sit in the prefectural city, but took the initiative to attack with Xiangyong.
Along the way, the county magistrates and gentry were asked to recruit soldiers, but unfortunately, the brave men recruited during the day sneaked away at night. After Xiangyong barely passed a thousand, the news of the rebels came, and in an instant, only a few hundred remained.
The head of Yiyang City.
Xie Lijing looked at the rebels outside the city, and at the few dozens of Xiangyong left around him. He only has these dozens of township braves available, the Yamen servants in Yiyang County have all escaped, and the county magistrate probably slipped back to his hometown, and no one is willing to accompany the magistrate to guard the city.
"Kaicheng surrender."
Xie Lijing's choice was very miraculous. He asked several Xiangyongs to open the city gate, and led others to maintain law and order. At the same time, he took care of the county government's treasury and documents.
When Xiao Zongxian led them into the city, he learned that the magistrate of Yiyang had escaped, and that the magistrate of Guangxin was in charge here, so he immediately came to visit: "Thank you, old man, for maintaining law and order and protecting the county government!"
However, Xie Lijing said: "It's not like I don't know how to follow the thief for the reward of eating the king and being loyal to the king. You can kill me or tie me up. It's up to you."
"I won't kill you or tie you up, you are a good official." Xiao Zong said.
Xie Lijing responded with a sneer and stopped talking.
Xiao Zongxian was a little embarrassed, so of course he took good care of him and went to deal with business.
Three days later, Xiao Zong seemed to have received the news, and he knew that Xie Lijing had the will to die. In these three days, he did not drink a drop of water or eat a grain of rice.
Xiao Zongxian hurried over, but seeing the other party's haggard appearance, he sighed and said, "Old Mister, why bother?"
Xie Lijing didn't speak.
Xiao Zong said angrily: "If you don't eat anymore, when I capture Fucheng, I will definitely kill you."
Xie Lijing finally spoke out, his voice hoarse: "You won't."
"I'm stubborn," Xiao Zongxian shouted, "Come here, forcefully feed me porridge. After you've fed me, cover your mouth, tie up your hands and feet, don't let him commit suicide, and send him back to Ji'an to the general town for disposal!"
"Zhu Zier dare um"
After starving for three days, Xie Lijing had no strength left. He was held down by two soldiers and his mouth was forcibly opened.
He was force-fed cold porridge, some porridge sprayed from his mouth, some porridge choked out from his nostrils, and his face and neck were covered with porridge water and rice grains.
Xiao Zong was too lazy to take care of it. Before the new year, he had to occupy the entire Guangxin Mansion. This was a death order issued by the Military Academy.
Leaving a small amount of auxiliary grain transport troops stationed in Yiyang, Xiao Zongxian immediately divided his troops. He led the main force to the east, all the way to occupy Xing'an and Shangrao (Guangxin Fucheng), and then divided his troops to occupy Yushan and Yongfeng. Another division was sent to occupy the lead mountain.
Xing'an County originally belonged to the boundary of Yiyang County. During the Jiajing period, it was established as a separate county because of its rich porcelain production.
It is conceivable how popular the porcelain here is.
The porcelain kilns here are collectively called Hengfeng Kiln. During the period of the Republic of China, the name of the county was simply changed, and the name of the kiln was directly called Hengfeng County.
?With Guangxin Mansion taken down, Zhao Han's financial revenue will rise to another level.
Xing'an County is rich in porcelain, and the next Shangrao, Yushan, Yongfeng, and Qianshan counties all have prosperous paper industries.
In terms of market size alone, in the mid-Ming Dynasty, the combined number of paper mills in Qianshan, Yongfeng, and Shangrao counties was only one-fifth of that in Yushan County.
However, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, Qianshan County came from behind and had a tendency to overtake Yushan County.
Why does this happen?
?Because civil servants and eunuchs were tossing about, a large number of parasites were raised, and the court could not collect taxes normally.
Including the Fei family's paper mill, all of them belonged to "private troughs", and the government could handle them at will. As for the official slot, in addition to the official paper mill established by the imperial court, other official slot licenses will also be issued.
Only by bribing civil officials and making friends with eunuchs can merchants obtain official licenses. This kind of merchants is commonly known as "lantou".
They have a papermaking license issued by the government, but they do not make paper themselves. Instead, they accept orders from the imperial court and local governments, forcefully buy paper from private paper mills, and often credit and lower prices, hoard paper, and manipulate the market.
?The private paper mills in Shangrao and Yushan counties were the worst, with a large number of bankruptcies. Qianshan County is farther away, so it has developed a large number of paper industries.
It's just that the tentacles of "leading the head" had extended to Qianshan by the end of Ming Dynasty, and the papermakers in Qianshan were also made miserable.
Zhang Yinggao, the former magistrate of Guangxin, received strong support from the gentry of several counties because of the abolition of this phenomenon by Shangshu, and was able to recruit and train thousands of township braves.
After Zhang Yinggao committed suicide in defeat, he "takes the lead"Yan Qi also chimed in and said, "The third brother is right. Brother Han is going to be the emperor. He has his own rules and regulations, and we should all follow his rules. Brother Han said that the big clan will be divided. The family is distributing the property, and the father still wants to make Han brother's son?"
Fei Yingke said to the staff of the peasant association: "Masters of the peasant association, please enter the house, and I will take you to count the property immediately."
"Yes, yes, please come in, masters of the peasant association!" Fei Yingqi was also enthusiastic, and regarded the peasant association as the Buddha and Bodhisattva who saved them.
If the family is not separated, although the family property is everyone's property, Fei Yinghuan has the final say on everything, and the two of them are just bastards raised.
Fei Yingqi rolled his eyes, ran into the house suddenly, and shouted along the way: "Brother Han has become the king of Jiangxi, and he wants to divide the land for the slaves of the whole world. From now on, you are free, and you will no longer be slaves to others." Come out and divide the fields!"
Fei Yingke also rushed into his inner house and asked his wife to release the slaves as soon as possible. They are now very supportive of Zhao Han's policy.
The members of the peasant association looked at each other in blank dismay. They already knew that this was the home of General Zhao Er and his wife's natal home. It's just that this family is really hard to describe.
"Evil animal, evil animal!"
Fei Yuanyi beat and scolded on crutches, then knelt on the ground, crying loudly while chanting his ancestors.
