Embarrassed!

It's embarrassing!

There was a big port on the edge of the capital, and the Koreans knew it before they, the ministers of the DPRK and China.

What a joke!

Soon, the news spread throughout the government and the opposition.

The ministers were shocked at first.

How can it be?

Tianjin Wei opened a port that big, and it has been in operation for more than a year.

We didn't know anything.

Wrath!

Then the ministers were furious.

I was really deceived.

No wonder Wanli was willing to give up the luxurious Luwang Mansion of Weihui Mansion, and allocated such a piece of waste land from Tianjin Wei to build Luwang Wangfu, and he didn't have to pay for it from the imperial court.

This is not Wanli's style at all.

It turned out that Luwangfu was just a pretense.

But it's also to blame that they stare at the boudoir all day long, sitting in the well and watching the sky every day, and have no interest in overseas affairs, otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to hide it for so long.

Outside the main hall.

The ministers are talking.

is really scoffing at Wanli and Guo Dan's dealings.

They were even wondering how many unknown things this pair of emperor merchants had done.

"Duke, Prime Minister, do you already know about this?"

Zhang Heming asked Zhang Whale and Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng said: "Our family is like you, just learned about it. ”

Zhang Whale said: "We didn't participate in this matter. ”

Although Wanli didn't tell them, but in fact, these two people knew, of course Zhang Cheng wouldn't say it, and Zhang Whale's words, when he knew, it was already too late, who knew what the situation was at first, and after it was built, he found out that it was a port.

He felt that there was no need to say any more, because he couldn't stop Guo Dan, and Guo Dan had already controlled the banknote at that time.

Zhang Heming asked again: "I wonder what the two of you think about this?" ”

The port was closely linked to the interests of their eunuchs.

Zhang Whale didn't know that Zhang Heming had the intention of provoking, and said without leaking: "I don't know what is going on yet, let's wait until I figure it out." ”

Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "The governor is reasonable. ”

After a while, the door to the main hall finally opened.

The ministers entered the temple in order.

"The emperor has arrived."

A chicken woman's voice.

I saw Wanli come to the steps leisurely.

After the three long live calls, Shen Shixing, as the first assistant, naturally stood up first and said: "Your Majesty, the DPRK sent an envoy to inquire if it is possible to come from Shanghai this year, pass through Tianjin Wei Port, and enter Beijing to pay tribute." ”

When talking about "Tianjin Wei Port", he also deliberately accentuated his tone.

Wanli said: "The tribute can be shipped into Tianjin Port by sea, and the envoys should go by land." ”

Shen Shixing looked stunned.

He didn't expect that Wanli would speak so naturally.

Wang Jiaping stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, when will Tianjin Wei have one more port?" ”

Wanli smiled and said, "Oh, I built a port in Tianjin Wei two years ago. ”

Chen Younian immediately said: "Your Majesty, the ministers don't know anything about this. ”

Wanli said: "This is my family matter, so I didn't tell you." ”

Housekeeping?

The ministers all stared blankly at Wanli.

Zhang Heming kindly reminded: "Your Majesty, I have always been very cautious about opening the port, and this is a major national event!" ”

"How can I open a private port as a national event, do I have to ask for your consent before I build a house in the harem?" Wanli said unhappily.

"I don't dare." Zhang Heming bowed, but there was a way: "But how can the two things be confused?" ”

"That's the same thing."

Wanli snorted lightly: "What is the origin of the name 'Tianjin Wei', you Aiqing should also know it, it means the ferry of the Son of Heaven, and I built a Tianzi Port in Tianjin Wei, which is justified, why not." Moreover, I also do this, because I am also concerned about the people's feelings, and I do not want to compete with the people for profit.

If there is a port in Tianjin Wei, a lot of tribute will be able to enter Beijing from Tianjin Wei in the future, and there is no need to compete with merchants and people in Yuegang and disturb the local people. ”

Wang Xijue and Wang Jiaping suddenly felt that Wanli was a little reasonable.

The whole Ming Dynasty is a port in Yuegang, the emperor's goods go that way, and the people's goods also go there, of course, the people have to make way for the emperor, and they will also disturb the various state capitals along the way, and it will be much more convenient to enter Beijing from Tianjin, and there is indeed some reason.

Shen Yi immediately said: "Your Majesty loves the people like a son, it is really the blessing of my Ming Dynasty." ”

Wanli said: "This is all as it should be, if you don't ask today, I don't want to say it, and Aiqing doesn't want to mention it again." ”

Of course you won't say it!

Li Sancai said: "Your Majesty, Tianjin Wei is too close to the capital, and if you open a port here, if you attract thieves, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles." ”

Wanli immediately said: "Aiqing's advice is really heartfelt, and I also feel that there is indeed such a hidden danger in Tianjin Weikaigang." ”

Li Sancai couldn't help but look happy.

The emperor is still quite persuaded.

As soon as this idea came to mind, Wanli changed his words and said, "I plan to send my Son of Heaven Army to guard the town, and order a large number of firearms from Weihui Mansion, so that nothing goes wrong." ”

What's the horse?

Ordered firearms again?

Li Sancai was startled and said, "Your Majesty, now the treasury is ......!" ”

Without waiting for him to finish, Wanli said: "I don't need to allocate money from the treasury, I will pay for it myself." ”

“......！”

Li Sancai was speechless for a moment.

Now Wanli is really tough to speak, I don't need the country's money now, what can you do with me.

The ministers also knew in their hearts that now Wanli has a small treasury outside.

No.

It's already a big coffer!

Zhang Heming said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks this is not in accordance with the rules!" ”

Wanli asked, "Where is the irregularity?" ”

Zhang Heming said: "Wechen heard that this port was built ...... Luwang Mansion. ”

Wanli interrupted him rudely, "That's why I said that this is a family matter, and I didn't embezzle the people's land, but built a port at my brother's house, and I didn't let the state pay a penny, it was all my own money." Or does Aiqing think that King Lu will rebel? ”

Zhang Heming hurriedly said: "Weichen has no such intention. ”

Wanli snorted, and said loudly: "Now that I am sympathetic to the merchants, I will not hesitate to spend my own money to build a port at my brother's house, I hope that the people can also understand my hardships, if they still want to smuggle, then don't blame me for not being merciful." Where are the commanders? ”

"The minister is here."

Liu Shouyou immediately stood up.

Wanli said: "In the future, Jinyiwei will strengthen the inspection of the coastal state capital, if it is found that someone opens a private port or a smuggling ship, it must be severely punished and never tolerated." ”

"Wechen obeys."

Liu Shou has a fist hug.

This is really refreshing the three views of the ministers.

They gradually realized that this young emperor may be the most shameless emperor since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Open a private port by yourself, and then immediately don't allow others to open it, which is obviously to tell everyone that you can only go to my house in the future, and you will have to leave your money!

Wang Jiaping really couldn't stand it, and said: "Your Majesty, there is a way, there is something good at the top, and it will be very bad at the bottom, what do you do, Your Majesty, the people below will definitely follow suit!" ”

Wanli immediately looked at each other angrily and said, "What does Wang Aiqing mean by this, but it is to explain to me, isn't that Yuegang for the people?" Or if I open a port, I have to open a port for every citizen. ”

The fat house is bursting with combat power today!

Wang Jiaping was stunned by Wanli.

"Retreat!"

Throwing down these two words, Wanli got up and left domineeringly.

Leaving behind a group of ministers who have been stunned by the power of the fat house

Wrong!

Something is wrong!

How so?

In the past, the emperor was so angry that he ran away, but now they are suspicious of life by the emperor.

As everyone knows, Wanli has long known that there will be this day, and today's scene has been rehearsed countless times in his mind, as long as the ministers speak, he will know what to say next.

Of course, Guo Dan's technical support is indispensable.

The entire port, without allowing the treasury to allocate money.

Wanli can justifiably say that it is his own business, if the treasury allocated money, you say that it is his own business, then it really doesn't make sense.

Out of the palace, Wanli only felt that he was in good spirits!

It's good to be rich!

......

A no-tooth line!

"Oops! This kind of scene, I didn't even see His Majesty's wisdom and martial arts, but it was really... What a pity! ”

Guo Dan learned from Zhang Cheng what was happening in today's court, and he slapped the table with excitement and annoyance.

Zhang Cheng laughed and said: "You kid is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic!" ”

"No, no, you know, the prime minister, what I admire is Your Majesty."

Guo Dan smiled, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Wait a minute." ”

He got up and came to the back of the desk, took out the money order book, wrote a few words on it, stamped it, and then took the money order, came to Zhang Cheng, handed it over and said: "About the porcelain matter, there is really a labor minister, a little meaning, and I hope the minister will not refuse." ”

"Oops! What are you doing here, it's our family's business. ”

As he spoke, Zhang Cheng glanced at the bill of exchange, and his little heart immediately shook.

That's a 50,000 taels bill!

If you don't agree with each other, you will smash 50,000 taels.

What are we still greedy, just mess with you.

Guo smiled lightly: "You can't say that, the prime minister also has to let the people below work hard, of course you have to reward them, then you can't pay for it." ”

"You ......!" Zhang Cheng took the bill of exchange embarrassedly and said with a smile: "Then our family will accept it for them." ”

Guo Dan said again: "Prime minister, I heard that His Majesty's tribute has always been in charge of the celebrant and the East Factory. ”

Zhang Cheng was stunned, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Guo Dan said: "The prime minister must have some connections in Quanzhou." ”

Zhang Cheng smiled: "It's a little, why do you ask this?" ”

Guo Dan said: "Prime minister, I plan to go to Quanzhou to do some business, I have to have a few hundred thousand taels, I hope to use the internal minister's connections." ”

Zhang Cheng was surprised: "Hundreds of thousands of taels? ”

Guo Dan nodded.

Zhang Cheng said: "What are you doing over there with so much money?" ”

Guo Dan said: "Of course, it's to make money, don't blame the prime minister, I can't say anything about this for the time being, because I'm not sure if it can be successful, but once it succeeds, how much money is thrown over, at least it can be doubled back." ”

Zhang Cheng blinked, thinking in his heart, why do you use my connections to make money. said: "Guo Dan, are you true?" ”

Guo smiled lightly: "The prime minister knows me, and I don't dare to be vague about making money." ”

Zhang Cheng's eyes flickered a few times, and he suddenly handed back the money order in his hand.

Guo Dan was stunned for a moment and said, "Prime minister, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhang Cheng smiled and said: "Guo Dan, this money is used to reward the people below, and it has to be remitted to the south, our family is thinking, why not go with your money, and after making money, we will treat everyone." ”

"No problem, if you lose it, it's mine, and what you earn is all internal." Guo Dan readily agreed, and took the bill of exchange again.

Zhang Cheng smiled even more happily.

This kid is too sensible.

After Zhang Cheng left, Guo Dan tore the bill of exchange to shreds, then threw it into the trash, and said with a smile: "This money will roll until you die." ”
