"Daming Wuhua Tianbao, it's good to go to Daming to see it." Cheng Min Zhengdao.

The official who led the government was about to refute, but Concubine Cishun said first: "The Great Monarch has not been on the throne for a long time, and the foundation has not yet been solidified, so it is too risky to go to Daming." ”

The remnants of Yanshanjun always want to take the life of the monarch and stay in Seoul to be safe.

"With the protection of the guards, the retainers are not afraid."

Concubine Cishun frowned slightly, and said angrily: "The prince will stay in the palace these days, and the envoy will return to Beijing, and we should also say something."

Pass on the order of the palace, give the envoy a thousand taels of silver, and don't go straight to two hundred plants. ”

The corners of Cheng Minzheng's mouth twitched slightly, North Korea is really poor enough, so he called Huazi...... When he was in Huizhou, the number of monthly books on his books was more than 1,000 taels.

If he hadn't known that the royal family's treasury had been emptied by Yan Shanjun, he would really think that he was looking down on anyone.

"Then thank you, Concubine."

Cheng Minzheng didn't argue much, as Concubine Cishun said, the foundation of the king of Jincheng was not stable, and there were people from Yanshan in the government and the opposition, and it was very dangerous to go to Daming.

"The prince will stay in the palace, the official has retired."

Back at home, Cheng Minzheng waited for five days, but he didn't see the big ship from Liangxiang.

I went to ask Foreman Liu of the Seoul Salt Factory, but he said that he didn't know when the ship would come.

"My lord, Concubine Cishun and the Lord of Jincheng are here." The guards from the Raiders Department came in to report.

Cheng Minzheng straightened his clothes, went out to greet him, and bowed slightly to Concubine Cishun.

He also saw Han Simen, who was in good spirits standing behind the King of Jincheng.

Concubine Cishun said with a smile: "Your Majesty Daming praised the ambassador for his full stomach in the holy decree, and this time he went to Daming, and the prince of Jincheng asked the ambassador." ”

The holy decree of the Ming Emperor, North Korea did not dare to slack off.

In the holy decree, Emperor Hongzhi read between the lines, revealing Cheng Minzheng's teachings, assisting him to become a generation of Ming monarchs, and his status in the imperial court is very important.

Yanshan Junji will curry favor with the Ming Dynasty and pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty every year.

But no matter how to please, it is better to worship Cheng Minzheng as a teacher now, so as to cling to the Ming Emperor.

Cheng Minzheng smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that I will have to wait for a few days, and the merchant ships of the Ming Dynasty are still in the future." ”

Han Simen said: "The merchant ships in Liangxiang have been plundered by the Japanese invaders, so it is better to let the imperial court send someone to send an ambassador back to China." ”

No wonder I waited for a long time, but I didn't see the big ship from Liangxiang coming.

Cheng Minzheng nodded slightly.

………

On a snowy day, the cold hits.

Yan Chengjin still remembers the gambling contract with His Majesty, and Liangxiang surpassed the Jiangnan area and became the place where the Ming Dynasty paid the most commercial taxes.

Your Majesty and Han Wen will definitely remember.

If he breaks his promise, although he will not lose his head because of this, Yan Chengjin wants to be promoted.

It's the end of the year again, and it's a good time for a promotion and a raise.

The position of the deputy capital of the Imperial History of the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been vacant for a long time.

Since Chenghua, it has been empty, and Zhu Jianshen is mediocre and ignorant of political affairs, so he is too lazy to find a third-grade official to impeach himself.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate has not been fully compiled, either the position of the Imperial History is vacant, or the position of the Deputy Imperial History is vacant, anyway, there is a head in charge.

If you don't make a big performance, I'm afraid that it won't be good to be promoted......

After the winter, the number of businessmen who came to Liangxiang to purchase business was cut by half.

Tax and silver income is the lowest of the year.

"Go, buy a loom for Young Master Ben and come back."

Yan Chengjin thought of the shuttle, which happened to be doing textile at home in winter, and it was also in line with the current development situation of the Ming Dynasty.

He Neng wondered: "What kind of loom does the young master want?" ”

The young master's taste is different from ordinary people, and he doesn't know whether to buy a new loom or a broken loom.

I'm not afraid of spending money, I'm afraid that I won't be satisfied with the purchase and be fined by the young master.

Yan Chengjin said: "Buy a new one and send it quickly." ”

In less than half an hour, He Neng moved a new loom into the house.

Yan Chengjin spread out the blank paper, began to scribble on the paper, and drew according to the loom.

Jiangnan is a large silk producer, if the raw silk in the south of the Yangtze River is bought back to Liangxiang, the homeless people and the common people have a loom, and Liangxiang will also become a large textile producer in the Ming Dynasty.

A loom charged half a tael of silver as a tax silver.

If there is no silver, you can use textiles to deduct, and the Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce collects the textiles and sells them for money.

In this way, the tax and silver of Liangxiang will be greatly increased, and it can also be used to upgrade a product.

Yan Chengjin stared at the loom carefully.

After Huang Daopo improved the textile technology, now, the loom has been further improved.

For different textiles, two types of looms appeared, jacquard type and waist machine type.

The jacquard loom is usually six feet long, and the high arched place is the flower building, and the workers sit on the wooden frame of the flower building, which can weave almost all textiles.

The waist loom is smaller than the jacquard type, also known as the small machine, and is usually used to weave silk, satin and light yarn.

Ordinary weavers want to weave kudzu, ramie, and cotton cloth, so they use waist looms.

But in the same place between the two looms, the shuttle is used.

Yan Chengjin picked up a charcoal pen and traced it on paper.

A chute was drawn on both sides of the loom, and small holes were drawn at the ends of the shuttle.

"When the shuttle comes out, it must need a lot of raw silk.

Now the raw silk is purchased and transported back, and as soon as the shuttle loom comes out, it can be directly loaded on the silk and weave silk. ”

Yan Chengjin found Wang Busui: "Help Young Master Ben buy raw silk, the more the better." ”

Wang Busui looked embarrassed: "Young master, I'm afraid I'm going to find the two lords of the Zhang family, they are the hidden silk weavers in Jiangnan."

You also know the temperament of those two brothers, and the younger ones will lose money when they do business with them.

I'm afraid you'll have to step in this time. ”

A large amount of raw silk was purchased in the palace and used to make silk brocade.

In the Jiangnan area, the Zhang brothers almost monopolized the raw silk business and supplied the weaving bureaus in the south of the Yangtze River.

The Weaving Bureau is responsible for the silk and silk required for royal, official, reward and sacrificial ceremonies.

Although the imperial palace was frugal, the major feudal kings used a high amount of silk.

In addition, there were also the gentry of the Ming Dynasty, who were also big users of silk.

The three major businesses of the Ming Dynasty are only silk, tea, and porcelain, and the Zhang family brothers will touch silk, Yan Chengjin is not surprised.

The Zhou family also has such a business, and they also make silk quilts.

Wang Busui had a bitter face: "This time, the small one can't come forward to buy it, and Shou Ninghou has to suck up the flesh and blood of the small one." ”

Shouning Houfu,

Yan Chengjin got off the sedan chair, walked into the door of the house, and heard the sound of crying.

"Get out of the way, this lord is not alive!"

"Brother, I'm not alive anymore, let's die together, die clean, and my heart won't hurt when I die."

Yan Chengjin saw the Zhang brothers climbing to the top of a tall tree branch, and there was a small lake below, and it seemed that they were about to commit suicide by jumping into the lake.

"Not alive...... I lost a lot of money, brother, we are fortunate to have earned the silver, like a fart, and if we say no, it will be gone. ”

"Woo...... Elder brother...... Not alive anymore. ”

The Zhang brothers rode on the fork of the tree, crumbling, and the people did not dare to go up to stop them for fear of startling them down.

"Brother, you jump first." Zhang Heling cried.

Zhang Yanling wiped away her tears and said suspiciously: "Why don't you jump first?" ”

"Brother will cry for a while, and jump when he is tired of crying." Zhang Heling said.

The subordinates below cried: "Second master, don't jump!" ”

Zhang Yanling's housekeeper howled and dissuaded: "Master, don't jump!" ”

Zhang Yanling sadly let go of his hand, popped, and fell into the lake.

Zhang Heling looked down and was dumbfounded: "Brother, are you really jumping?" ”

Seeing Zhang Yanling splashing in the water and reaching out for help, Zhang Yanling's housekeeper shouted: "What are you doing in a daze!" Don't hurry up, master, fish it up! ”

Really jumped?

Yan Chengjin blamed himself in his heart, blaming me for planting corn and letting you eat too much.
