Luo Xin stretched out a finger and said, "First, the two young masters of Ge Lao Xu completely destroyed the rules in the Southeast and needed to restore the rules."

"Xu Jie, from now on, your Xu family is not allowed to intervene in the Southeast Sea Trade." Emperor Jiajing said coldly.

Xu Jie felt relieved and kowtowed, "Thank you Your Majesty."

"No!" Luo Xin shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, as a person who breaks the rules of the Maritime Bureau, the Xu family will not allow the Xu family to intervene in the sea trade again in the future. After this incident, if the Xu family intervenes again, even if it is in a proper manner, it will cause panic in the entire Southeast and evacuate one after another. It will inevitably cause chaos in the Southeast again, causing the Maritime Bureau to not be able to collect a copper tariff."

Xu Jie lay on the ground and said to himself, "Zhu Zi, I actually regard our Xu family as a plague god. This time I will tolerate you. As long as I can pass this level, the Xu family will not intervene in the sea trade."

Emperor Jiajing looked at Luo Xin in confusion and said, "That's why I made the Xu family not intervene in the sea trade!"

"I am talking about the future, but now the Xu family must intervene. This chaos was caused by the Xu family, so we must be responsible. Now the Southeast merchants have made the Xu family deal with the vassal states. At this time, who will trade if the Xu family doesn't trade? Could it be that the gains caused by the Xu family will be taken the blame by the Ming Dynasty's treasury or His Majesty's inner treasury?"

"Yes!" Emperor Jiajing looked at Xu Jie with a cold look. Xu Jie cursed in his heart: "If you don't be a son, you want the Xu family to lose everything!"

"Your Majesty, even if I lose everything, I don't have that much money to trade it all the time!" Xu Jie cried.

Emperor Jiajing also suspected that Luo Xin was using the excuse to punish Xu Jie, so he looked at Luo Xin with a smile. However, Luo Xin said seriously:

"Your Majesty, I didn't want Mr. Xu to continue trading with the vassal states like this. I just wanted to trade with the vassal states this time. There is a reason."

"Um?"

Emperor Jiajing was a little surprised. There was nothing in the Ming Dynasty who knew about the hatred between Xu Jie and Luo Xin. Emperor Jiajing really didn't expect Luo Xin to give up such a good opportunity. Could it be that Luo Xin was really a public and selfless person?

"Tell me why."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Luo Xin said loudly: "First, no one can harm the interests of the Ming Dynasty without being punished, so letting the Xu family be responsible for this transaction is also a punishment for the Xu family. Otherwise, after seeing that the interests of the Ming Dynasty, others will not only not be punished, but also gain profits, and they will follow suit. The Ming Dynasty may not be eaten up for a long time. No matter how strong the giant is, it cannot withstand the bites of the borer."

Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but look fierce, and agreed with Luo Xin's words in his heart. Now the Ming Dynasty lacks the successor of the cabinet chief, and he also needs to check and balance Gao Gong alone. In the period when Xu Jie's successor had not yet appeared, Xu Jie still had a role, so he could not withdraw, but he had to teach him a lesson. A profound lesson and punishing Xu Jie was also a shock to others.

"Second, I need to attract pirates through this transaction and measure the strength of the pirates."

Emperor Jiajing nodded and said, "Do you understand Xu Jie?"

Xu Jie felt relieved. He had only traded with the vassal states once. Although the Xu family would lose money, it would not hurt the bones.

"Your Majesty!" Luo Xin said again: "The punishment for the Xu family should be comprehensive. This is not only for the normal collection of the Ming Dynasty tariffs, but also for the Ming Dynasty to correct the reputation and let the people of the Ming Dynasty know that as long as your Majesty is there, the Ming Dynasty will be bright and bright. Therefore, the property that the Xu family robbed must be returned to those merchants whose families were destroyed, and the merchants who caused the death must be compensated."

Xu Jie's face turned green. He had originally had the property that he had robbed, but the goods traded with the vassal states were solved by more than half. The Xu family was organizing some sources of goods. Although they would pay a lot of money, they were within the scope of the Xu family's endorsement. No matter how low the transaction price was, there was a scope for losing money.

but……

The property that was robbed was returned and compensation was required. Not only did such losses have been mentioned, but the gap in transactions with merchants from the vassal states was also increased. This was no longer within the scope of the Xu family's tolerance. It was absolutely damaged and it needed to sell the property to achieve it.

More importantly, this matter can no longer be concealed through such a handling, the reputation of the Xu family was destroyed and the reputation of Xu Jie was also destroyed.

Just as he was sweating all over, he heard the cold voice of Emperor Jiajing:

"Accurate! Liu Shouyou!"

"I'm here!" Liu Shouyou hurriedly stepped forward.

"You go to the southeast in person to supervise this matter. Extremely supervise the Xu family and the vassal states to complete this transaction, and extremely supervise the Xu family to return the property they had seized and compensate the merchants for the losses. If the Xu family dares not cooperate, then just search the house."

"Abide by the order!" Liu Shouyou responded immediately.

"Your Majesty, I will tell my family to cooperate." The Xu family's sweat was soaked in their clothes.

Emperor Jiajing ignored Xu Jie and looked at Luo Xin and said, "You just said the first point, continue."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Luo Xin said loudly: "The second point is to persuade the five major families in the southeast to re-operate in the southeast and resume transactions with merchants from the vassal states."

Emperor Jiajing frowned slightly and said, "This is nothing difficult, right? This is a chance to make money for them. Will they still refuse the opportunity to make money?"

"No one will refuse the opportunity to make money!" Luo Xinning said: "But if this opportunity is not to make money, it will lose money, or it is better to make more money when trading with others. Will they still trade with the vassal states? And it is very likely that they will encounter some unknown troubles, will they still agree?"

"How come you don't make money? What trouble will you get?"

"Your Majesty, according to Master Liu's description just now, with my experience in the Southeast Maritime Warehouse Department, after Xu Jie participated in the Maritime Warehouse Department's maritime trade, he kept lowering the price, and the final price was no longer profitable. And later, the Xu family even robbed some merchants, which had a very bad impact in the Southeast. Even the five major families were afraid that the Xu family would become bigger and finally robbed the five major families. After all... the Grand Governor Lu had already gone."

Xu Jie wanted to get up and tear Luo Xin apart at this time, but he felt more fear in his heart. This further aggravated Xu Jie's sins. He was already afraid that Emperor Jiajing would drive him out of the cabinet.

"So!" Luo Xinning said in a voice: "The five major families must have concerns, and the five major families have now been opened up to explore new trade routes. It should be very difficult to convince them to return to the southeast to operate marine trade. After all, they are afraid that one day in the future, the Xu family will participate in marine trade again and take advantage of it again. Moreover, when they go to the north to explore new trade routes, they are afraid of the Xu family and cannot afford to hide. If they come back and engage in marine trade with the merchants of the vassal state again, in their hearts, this is truly offending the Xu family. When the Xu family participates in marine trade again, they will definitely regard them as enemies. How could they not be afraid?"
