The postman said, "Official, you don't know that those two young men are extremely powerful. The canal ships and merchants on both sides of the canal listen to them. Things are really big. The court is not going to end, and it is not easy to blame those two guys. If your Jinyiwei takes those two guys, the canal shipmen will strike and the merchants will strike, the court will not be able to suppress them, so they can only punish the Jinyiwei who caused this."

Gao Shixin understood that Li Sancai was the boss of the Donglin Party. This hypocritical guy was actually the biggest corrupt person in the Ming Dynasty back then. Once something happened to the people of Li Sancai’s family, the entire Donglin Party would help them!

The Donglin Party represented the gentry of industry and commerce, and with two young men of Li Sancai, they cut off the canal transportation for a minute.

"I heard that Li Sancai's property is several million taels of silver!" said the postman.

"Hmph! At least five million taels! It's more than our annual income in Ming Dynasty! It's so rich that it's comparable to a country!" Gao Shixin sneered, and he said to himself: Li Sancai, one day I will let you fall into my hands! Take out all your property as military pay!

Thinking of this, Gao Shixin suddenly felt that Zhang Yong had to recruit Shibazhi first was indeed a means to hit the key points of the Donglin Party. Isn’t the canal transportation controlled by the Donglin Party? With a strong navy, the importance of the canal transportation, which had complex relationships, was reduced a lot. With sea transportation, the court would no longer be threatened by the Donglin Party.

Originally, these pirates colluded with the Donglin Party to help the Donglin Party sell goods overseas and earn a lot of money. As long as they were brought to their own side, the Donglin Party cut off a path of wealth.

But the question is, will Yan Siqi and Zheng Zhilong accept recruitment so easily? Also, several Jinyiwei stations in Fujian do not know what the situation is, and have they been bribed by local gentry? Everything is still unknown.

The next morning, Gao Shixin took out a set of civilian clothes from the package and put them on, put them in the package, put them in the package, transformed them into a civilian, and then took out the fake road and took them out and carried them on his body. They should be used when necessary.

The territory of the Donglin Party is about to arrive, and Gao Shixin, the Jinyiwei Qianhu, can only keep a low profile.

After leaving the station and arrived by the river, Gao Shixin took a ferry like the people who crossed the river and paid ten copper plates for the crossing of the river. Not long after, the boat drove away, and the boatman rowed the boat across the Yellow River.

Arriving at Xuzhou on the other side, Gao Shixin did not enter the city, but went straight to the canal and found a ship to Yangzhou to go to Yangzhou.

The buses in the south are similar to those in the north. They all start at a fixed time. The difference is that northern transportation mainly relies on carriages, while the buses in the south rely on ships. Of course, boats are much more comfortable than cars, and the speed is much faster. The buses in the north that are sent to provincial capitals and capitals are about a hundred miles a day, but the ships in the south can only sail day and night, and can travel 300 miles a day and night, and can even travel 500 to 600 miles a day and night!

The passenger ship that Gao Shixin took was a better civilian ship. This ship has two floors, and the upper floor is a luxurious cabin. The ticket price is naturally much more expensive for those rich people. The lower floor is an ordinary cabin, which is all ordinary people. But even ordinary people are riding, it is much better than the poor people. Ordinary people, don’t say that they will go out, if they are far away from home, they will have to lead the way, and why do you go out for nothing? The farm work in the fields is too busy, and most of the hard work every year is handed over to the landlords and gentry, and they only leave a little bit of pitiful food for supporting their families.

When the day when the people are about to leave their homes, they can no longer survive and leave their hometowns. Then they become refugees, and they all rely on their legs to walk. Where can anyone take a boat?

There are four cabins on the second floor of the cabin, which are decorated like the guest rooms in the inn. Although the room is not large, it is very exquisite. Living in the room opposite Gao Shixin is a handsome young man. The young man is wearing a white Confucian costume, wearing a black four-corner crown scarf, shaking a fan in his hand, and a jade pendant hanging around his waist, looking like a graceful scholar.

With his keen sixth sense, Gao Shixin always felt that this young man who seemed to be only fourteen or five years old was doubtful, but he was suffering and had no evidence.

Gao Shixin put his luggage in the cabin and walked out for ventilation, but happened to see the young master coming out. The two of them looked at each other and found that the young master had very watery eyes, white face, red lips, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, and very beautiful. It was obvious that such a person was either Rabbit or a woman dressed in a man. He subconsciously stared at the young master's chest, and saw that it was flat like an airport, and he thought in his heart that this person must be Rabbit.

The young man saw the handsome man staring at his chest with his face blushed, and he felt ashamed and angry: Bah! This court's eagle claw grandson! Sooner or later, you will fall into the hands of my aunt! It will make you worse than death!

I followed the secret order to go south. It would be better to have more things than to do more. Although this rabbit man is very suspicious, there is no need to provoke him. What's more, this kid is a scholar, and this is the territory of the Donglin Party. If he provokes him, he will probably be surrounded by a group of poor people and will not be able to escape. I can break out of the siege of a group of corrupt scholars, but those guys with thin arms and thin legs may not be able to make a murder case and be impeached by a group of censors in the court. I don't care, but it will be bad if I delay the big affairs of Yongwazi and the little carpenter. Forget it, let's bear it first. Gao Shi said in his faith.

In the four cabins on the second floor of the passenger ship, in addition to Gao Shixin who disguised himself as a merchant and the young master opposite, there were two passengers, all real merchants. The large cabin on the first floor was full of passengers, most of whom were scholars who looked like old boys. Most of these guys who had not been able to get fame for many years were not very good at home, just to get a good name and be successful. Some were caravans, small merchants, etc.

When the ship arrived at the terminal of Yangzhou, Gao Shixin followed the passengers off the ship.

When he arrived at the city gate, the soldiers at the door stopped checking the road. Gao Shixin could only take out the road and hand it to the soldiers in a very aggrieved manner. He said in his heart: I am a thousand households of Jinyiwei. If it weren't for not revealing my identity, what road and rays are needed? As long as the jade plaque and silver arrows are revealed, the soldiers will kneel on the ground.

The soldiers checked the road quotation but found no problem. Nonsense, even if the fake road quotation made by the Jinyiwei himself was sent to the Yangzhou Prefectural Office for inspection, they could not tell that it was fake. There was no problem with the road quotation, so the soldiers asked carefully a few more questions, such as where they came from, where they went, and what they did.

Gao Shixin expressed a set of speeches that had been prepared long ago: "Two soldiers, Caomin, are vendors in the capital, and went to Fujian to get some tea." As he said that, he took out the tea guide and handed it to the two soldiers to see, and at the same time stuffed more than a dozen copper plates into the hands of the two soldiers.

The soldiers could not afford to provoke the merchants who could hold tea and could not afford to be provoked. They quickly raised their hands and let them go.

Tea tax was once one of the important incomes of the Ming Dynasty, and tea tax was also a commercial tax. During the Tianqi period, Zhejiang Province had a annual tea tax of more than 200,000 taels. During the Chongzhen period, there were only twelve taels left! Yes, you read that right, it was not 120,000 taels, it was twelve taels! This shows how King Xin was fooled after becoming the emperor!

Another important tax item in the Song and Yuan dynasties, alcohol tax, was basically gone in the Ming Dynasty!
