Chapter 1135 Controlling Opium

Zhang Yu mobilized the army and sent someone to invite Mi Zhu.

Zhang Yu actually didn't want to do anything to Mi Zhu.

After all, the ancients didn't know what this opium was.

This is not a crime, but Zhang Yu can't ignore it.

Mi Zhu happened to be at home, and he had a strong affection for Xuzhou.

The Mi family has lived in Xuzhou for generations, but Xuzhou has experienced a great war and a series of subsequent changes, the old relationship of the Mi family in Xuzhou has almost dissipated.

But this does not prevent him from returning to Xuzhou.

Li Zheng sent someone to invite him suddenly, Mi Zhu was quite surprised.

He knew Li Zheng and was a very busy person.

At the same time, as a foreign relative, he doesn't want to get too involved with these officials. It's not that he doesn't know the importance of power.

But he knew Zhang Yu's methods better.

Zhang Yu would not allow them to use power for profit.

In this way, Mi Zhu did not get very close to the government.

Li Zheng sent someone to invite him, but he didn't dare to neglect, he told his family, and then he went to the State Shepherd's Mansion.

"My lord, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

When Mi Zhu arrived at the State Shepherd's Mansion, he saw not only Li Zheng, but also Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu asked Mi Zhu to get up, and then sat down on the chair next to him.

Mi Zhu was able to observe words and expressions, and he had already seen that Zhang Yu's expression was not very good.

Moreover, he invited himself through Li Zhenglai, not his personal identity, so something must have happened, and it had something to do with him.

Mi Zhu was a little worried. I don't know if Zhang Yu came here specially to deal with him, or because of other things.

"Did you bring this thing back?"

Zhang Yu pointed to the opium and said.

Mi Zhu recognized what it was at a glance, and it made him a lot of money.

"It's what I brought back from overseas.

"Mi Zhu said.

"Have other merchants come into contact with this thing?" Zhang Yu asked.

"Yes, but my Mi family is the leader, because we discovered and controlled most of the channels." Mi Zhu replied.

Mi Zhu didn't know what happened, but he knew he had to answer honestly, otherwise Zhang Yu could find out by himself.

"Li Zheng, you immediately ask the police to cooperate with the army and confiscate all these things. If you dare not cooperate, you can take them directly." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu said to Mi Zhu again: "How much stock does your Mi family have, hand them all over. Apart from selling in Xuzhou, where else are you selling?"

"The production is not much, and most of them are sold near Xuzhou," Mi Zhu said.

Zhang Yu ordered all the opium to be confiscated. He did not expect that opium would still be discovered with the opening of the route.

This thing is really harmful, Zhang Yu must get rid of these things.

Mi Zhu still wanted to say something, but finally dared not say it.

This thing was discovered by Mi's family and brought back, he didn't expect Zhang Yu's reaction to be so great.

"This thing may be valuable." Zhang Yu thought suddenly.

This thing can be sold outside, especially in Britain.

In future generations, Britain will be sold to us, and in this time and space, Zhang Yu can sell it to us.

Seeing Mi Zhu fidgeting there, Zhang Yu said, "This thing is extremely poisonous. Once people take it, they can get great enjoyment, but they will soon become addicted. Once they don't take it, it will be extremely painful."

"After a normal person is infected, he will be very dependent, and continue to smoke, no matter how high the price is, the whole person will be slowly eroded, skinny, vulnerable to a single blow in a short time, and the family will be ruined. "

"The minister is dead." Mi Zhu knelt down and said in fright.

Zhang Yu glanced at Mi Zhu, and then said, "Get up, those who don't know are innocent, and this thing hasn't caused any great harm yet."

Zhang Yu asked everyone else to go out, leaving Mi Zhu alone.

"This thing is harmful, but it can also be a powerful weapon. I will send people to take over all the drugs and control the origin."

Mi Zhu didn't dare to have any opinion. Actually, he didn't get a lot of this stuff, and although he made a lot of money, but calculated according to the ratio, it couldn't compare with the whole fleet's money.

Now, the Mi family's fleet can obtain huge benefits from overseas, so there is no need to fight against an impossible opponent because of this small profit.

"I will sell this thing to the west. They are eyeing China, and use this thing to corrupt them, and even destroy them." Zhang Yu said confidently.

Mi Zhu felt a chill in his heart. If this thing is really poisonous as Zhang Yu said, it would be a terrible thing for Zhang Yu to sell it to another place on his own initiative.

"This matter will be a military secret. After you go back, tell your people not to talk nonsense. If the matter is more serious, temporarily send it overseas and come back in a year or so." Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Yu made a move on this matter, but did not make a lot of noise. No one in this era knows the dangers of opium. It is not a big deal for Mi Zhu to bring him back.

Zhang Yu directly took over this thing, and then sent people to plant it on a large scale.

When the output increases, Zhang Yu will sell this thing to the west, and then how can the powerful Roman Empire come to attack him.

This private visit to Xuzhou has really benefited a lot.

The army followed the arrester into the city, and under the leadership of the arrester, they searched from room to room and retrieved all the opium.

The output is really not much, only tens of kilograms.

After some investigation, there were indeed a few people who were addicted.

Simply being addicted is not too deep, quitting at this time, there should be no major problems.

"Fortunately, it was discovered early."

Zhang Yu was also lucky.

Now that his identity was disclosed and the army was mobilized, Zhang Yu asked the army to protect him, and then Zhang Yu began to publicly inspect Xuzhou.

In this way, the common people thought that the purpose of mobilizing the army into the city was to protect Zhang Yu, and everything was very normal.

Zhang Yu arranged all the troops around Chidao, which was very suitable. Once there was a major event, they could be quickly mobilized.

There are no enemies or rebels in the east, so there is no need for troops to stay in the city.

Zhang Yu inspected here for a few days, and then decided to continue south.

During the tour of Xuzhou, the people were excited, and the morale of the whole Xuzhou was high.

After Zhang Yu entered Xuzhou, they began to settle down.

When Zhang Yu left Xuzhou, there were a large number of people on the roadside to see him off.

The people scrambled to send him off for more than ten miles.

The people's heart is as simple as that, give the people a bite to eat, let them have a house to live in, that's all.

Continue to go south, the next stop is the Jiangdong area, which is the place where I started.

This place is more prosperous than Xuzhou. First, it has been more stable for a long time, and second, it has the Yangtze River waterway.

Zhang Yu took only 500 troops and walked for a few days to the bank of the Yangtze River.

"Go and see Shanghai."

Zhang Yu asked the army to wait dozens of miles away, and Zhang Yu continued to subdue it.

Shanghai is a place that Zhang Yu focused on developing after taking Xuzhou. Although he also developed it before, he has reservations because no one knows whether there will be a war here.
