It seems that the new law is suddenly on the verge of collapse, but in fact it is not, which is really a normal phenomenon in the Ming Dynasty.

Because the change of the law will inevitably affect the vested interests, if you want to succeed, you must be like Zhang Juzheng, holding great power, and now the power of the cabinet is not stable, they are only using Guo Dan's threat to carry out the new law.

This is not a conventional political maneuver.

Therefore, when everyone finds that Guo Dan's threat cannot be lifted in a short period of time, and the cabinet is unwilling to put further pressure on Guo Dan, this will inevitably lead to the fragile alliance between the DPRK and China beginning to fall apart.

If it weren't for Wang Xijue's replacement of all the banknote customs officials with his own people, or the new science and technology jinshi that he relied on, it is estimated that the new tariff law would have collapsed long ago.

It is precisely because of this group of people on the front line that Wang Xijue still has the strength to fight.

But it is precisely because of this that everyone is now gradually discovering that it turns out that you, Wang Xijue, are deliberately using Guo Dan to confuse us, in fact, to expand the power of the cabinet.

It's worth it.

The ministers of the Ming Dynasty could not afford another Zhang Juzheng.

The conservatives fought back even more fiercely.

And the conservatives, led by the cabinet, have moved from expansion to defense.

However, due to the rising opposition from Jiangnan, the situation is already very bad for the cabinet.

"This is really a lost east, harvested mulberry elm!"

Yu Shi Ding Lu sighed with emotion, and said to Li Zhi: "If Wang Xijue's conspiracy is really allowed to succeed, it will be much more terrifying than Guo Dan!" ”

Originally, they and the cabinet were working together to deal with Guo Dan, but they never thought that the spearhead would suddenly be aimed at the cabinet, which made them suffer some gains and losses for a while, but gradually, they found that this could collapse the cabinet team that had many contradictions with them in one fell swoop.

Happiness came a little too suddenly.

Li Zhi sighed with a little regret, he still hoped that Guo Dan could be brought down first, but now this matter is no longer something he can control, since this is the case, it is better to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and said: "In my opinion, that Wang Xijue is just a pioneer general, the real main messenger, but he has never shown up!" ”

Ding Qilu frowned slightly and said, "Yes!" In this change, Shen Shixing is unusually low-key, but without his support, it would be difficult for Wang Xijue and Wang Jiaping to promote the new law. ”

Li Zhi said: "So we can't let the new law be easily repealed. ”

Ding Jilu raised his eyebrows, "What do you mean?" ”

Li Zhi said: "Wang Xijue and Wang Jiaping are not the first assistant after all, they can't respond to every call, once they feel that their follow-up is weak, they will inevitably ask Shen Shixing to stand up and speak for them, and then they will be able to involve Shen Shixing." ”

The main thing they want to deal with is Shen Shixing, after all, Shen Shixing and Yanguan are already incompatible, and this time is an excellent opportunity, as long as Shen Shixing dares to go down, then this matter is far from over.

In fact, Wang Xijue and Wang Jiaping are not the first assistants, and many officials are still looking forward to Shen Shixing, if he doesn't speak, these officials will not stand up easily.

If you don't give an explicit statement, you can give a hint anyway.

But in this incident, Shen Shixing didn't even give much a look, and when Wang Xijue and Wang Jiaping were busy changing the law, he still handled government affairs diligently, maintained the operation of the imperial court, and silently served the country.

But now, the other party has fought back with all his might, and if Shen Shixing doesn't stand up at this time, Wang Xijue really can't stand it.

The key is that this change is led by him and Wang Jiaping, but now the pressure is all on him alone.

Although Wang Jiaping has been defending the new law recently, and he has been constantly speaking for Tang Wenwen, the other party just didn't mention him, and he attacked Wang Xijue.

The main reason, of course, is because Wang Jiaping is the eldest son's teacher, and the country is always the top priority, if the Wang family collapses, maybe Wanli's careful thinking will come out again, they can put a lot of effort into this country, and they must not let this matter fall short.

Wang Jiaping also knows this situation, he is just talking about things, he is not targeting any force, and both sides still have some tacit understanding.

Wang Xijue felt very depressed.

He is now in great need of Shen Shixing's support.

East Pavilion.

"Shousuke-sama, if you don't stand up again, then... Then I'..... I may not be able to hold it back. ”

Wang Xijue, who was anxious, had to send a distress signal to Shen Shixing.

He has asked Wanli to resign several times, forcing Wanli to make a decision, whether to live or die, you should give a happy word!

But Wanli hid in the deep palace again, no one saw him, this trick didn't work, and Wang Xijue didn't know what to do now.

Shen Shixing was silent for a long time, then suddenly sighed and asked, "How do you want me to help you?" ”

Of course, he didn't want to stand up, but he also knew that if Wang Xijue fell, it would be equivalent to breaking his right-hand man, and at the same time, the authority of the cabinet would be greatly damaged.

Wang Xijue said: "It is best to be able to convince Your Majesty that this matter has come to such a point, the reason is that Your Majesty suddenly saw no one, we found so much evidence and submitted it, but it was all lost, without Your Majesty's support, we could not succeed." ”

Shen Shixing was silent.

Because he knew that the other party was very likely to be waiting for him to make a move now, but at the same time, he also thought that Wanli might also be waiting for him to throw himself into the net.

He thought about it, as if no matter what he did, the cabinet could not avoid the fate of being used as a sword.

At this moment, he was thinking about the last person in his heart, and this person was Guo Dan.

The real culprit!

At this time, this big culprit is in Nanzhili, it is really beautiful, it is no exaggeration to say that when he goes out, he is hugging each other, and many people are lining up to see him every day.

You must know that not long ago, the people of Nanzhili really wanted to drink Guo Dan's blood and tear down Guo Dan's bones.

What a jaw-dropping transformation!

There is no way.

Because Guo Dan has become the largest debtor of Nanzhili, and the thirty percent of the debts he controls really hold the lifeblood of both sides of the debt tightly in his hands.

At this time, no one really wants Guo Dan to die.

The big creditors also want to get all the principal and interest, and the lenders, of course, want to be able to come back to life.

But it all depends on Guo Dan.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it dominates the rivers and lakes!

It's this kind of alliance that is unbreakable.

Early morning.

Guo Dan just came to the door, and found that Sun Hetian, Chen Sanyuan and other big landlords were standing at the door, and said in surprise: "Everyone, why are you standing outside this door?" ”

Sun Hetian said: "I heard that you are going to inspect Zhang Sanfa's clothing store today, so I also want to follow and learn from you." ”

"Yes, yes. Hehe! ”

......

Yang Feixu saw that they were all licking dog faces, and he felt disgusted.

Guo Dan didn't know their careful thoughts, nodded and said, "Then let's go together." ”

It's very easy to buy debt, the key is how to deal with it, if it is not handled well, it is in vain, and they are eager to see a miracle happen.

And Zhang Sanfa over there was already waiting at the corner of the street before dawn, looking forward to it for more than an hour, but it can be regarded as looking forward to Guo Dan, and immediately welcomed Guo Dan to his clothing store.

Although Nanjing is learning Weihui Mansion, the structure of the workshop is still different, Weihui Mansion is a separate workshop and a storefront, and Nanjing is mostly a whole, the front is a storefront, and the back is a workshop.

It still retains the traditional family production model.

"Why is it just one person?"

Guo Dan came to the workshop behind the clothing store and found that there was a little lady sitting at work in the big workshop.

Zhang Sanfa hurriedly said: "This is my wife." ”

As he spoke, he called his wife over again and saluted Guo Dan, and then he explained to Guo Dan: "Originally, I recruited a lot of people to make clothes, and I also made a lot of clothes, but I couldn't sell them, mainly because... Because.... ”

He wanted to speak, but he stopped.

Guo smiled lightly: "Mainly because the clothes in Weihui Mansion are not only cheap, but also good-looking, you can't sell Weihui Mansion?" ”

"It's... Yes. ”

Zhang Sanfa nodded.

Sun Hetian also wondered: "It's really strange to say, the clothes in Weihui Mansion are purchased from our Jiangnan silk materials, and then the clothes are produced and then sold, but the price is still cheaper than our local production, Guo Dan, what is the trick here?" ”

Guo smiled lightly: "The trick is one million taels." ”

"Huh? Haha, yes yes yes! ”

Sun Hetian: What else can they say.

"Just kidding, of course it's more than that."

Guo Dan smiled and said: "The textile workshop of Weihui Mansion has been producing clothes since very early on, whether it is dye, embroidery, or even the design of the style, it is very perfect, and it is on the side, which makes the clothes of Weihui Mansion high-quality and cheap."

To give you a very simple example, if you want to produce a new garment, you first have to find a tailor to design and cut it, and you have to buy the tools for spinning and weaving, as well as the dyes you need, which is certainly not cheap, and very slow, but the Weihui Mansion only needs to send a message to the past. ”

In fact, a trick is blending.

Qin Zhuang was forced to have no choice but to adopt blending to reduce costs, but never thought that when they really made great efforts to study blending, they found that the blended clothes were not bad at all, and the cost was reduced a lot, because blending does not need to completely rely on the high-quality silk materials in Jiangnan, and silk materials can be purchased from other places, coupled with Guo Dan's strong subsidies, the price is naturally relatively low.

"I see."

Sun Hetian and the others nodded thoughtfully.

Guo Dan said: "But then again, Jiangnan people are outstanding and rich in materials, to say that the clothing store has no room to survive at all, I don't think it is possible, if you do it seriously, you can still gain a foothold." ”

Speaking of this, he changed his words: "However, now that we are burdened with a lot of debt, there is no time for us to explore, we have to make changes, do something that can be stable and profitable, pay off the debt first, and then think about other things." ”

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, what kind of trading can be stable and profitable?"

Sun Hetian hurriedly asked.

Everyone pricked up their ears.

And this kind of business, you hurry up, that's what we're waiting for.

Guo Dan said: "Spinning silk." ”

“......！”

Everyone was stunned.

This... Do you still need to teach this?

Aren't you a class with an axe?

Chen Sanyuan said: "Your Excellency should know that even if it is a weaving, we can't spin the workshop of Weihui Mansion. ”

"Yes! This is the same as making clothes! ”

"No, no, no!"

Guo Dan shook his head and said, "The emphasis is on silk, not on weaving." ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Everyone didn't understand it at all.

Isn't silk just spun?

Guo Dan said: "On the price, of course, the clothes are higher than the silk, after all, there is an extra layer of handwork in the middle, but if the value of storage, the clothes are far inferior to silk, I can store silk, and I can make clothes at any time in the future, I can also make silk quilts, pillows, silk scarves, and so on." But the finished clothes can't be changed. ”

The three hairs nodded as if they didn't understand, and wondered: "Having said that, everyone is spinning this silk, why should someone buy it as soon as we do it." ”

Every household in Jiangnan produces silk, which is probably the most difficult to do business.

Guo smiled lightly: "Because I bought it." ”
