Chapter 403: The Rich Armor Party
"Young master, the scholar didn't leave, he sold calligraphy and paintings in Liangxiang, and wrote letters to people to read." How can he walk into the main hall to report.
In the past two days, he went to Liangxiang to keep an eye on it, and Haihan set up a stall in front of the library to write for people.
There's really a business.
Among the displaced people in Liangxiang, many strong men went to Hainan, and their family members asked Haihan to write a letter to Hainan, and a letter to two points of silver.
Yan Chengjin took a sip of boiled water and put down the teacup: "In the past two days, there is a ship in Liangxiang that wants to go south?" ”
"President Xie said that in three days, a batch of coarse cloth and iron tools will be transported to Hainan."
How can you understand why the young master is so concerned about the scholar from Hainan.
This scholar seems to be ordinary, and his calligraphy and painting are not outstanding.
However, the young master seems to recognize this person, but this person seems to have forgotten the young master.
Yan Chengjin made a difficulty, if he broke Haihan's leg and threw the merchant ship in Hainan, he would definitely attract the attention of the official.
Hai Jui is a role model for thousands of people in later generations.
I remember that in his previous life, he often appeared in high-scoring essays, if he didn't have him, wouldn't there be a lot of material for writing essays in later generations?
In this way, the person is gone, and the reputation of this official will not be left for 10,000 years
After thinking about it, Yan Chengjin thought of a way.
"Prepare a sedan chair and go to Liangxiang."
……
Liangxiang, in front of the library.
Haihan sighed lightly, it has not opened until now, and no one has written to it.
Liang Zhong has been selling baked cakes next to Hai Han, and also asked Hai Han to write a letter to his son, Liang Thirteen.
"Xiucai, if you don't have anywhere to stay, you can go to Liangxiang to find Lord Zhang, and live in the homeless shed without spending money."
Haihan's heart moved slightly, it didn't matter if he lived in poverty, he just wanted to prepare for the exam in the capital.
He came to Liangxiang Yamen and asked to see Zhang Xian.
Zhang Xian frowned slightly, and said bitterly: "The grass hut in Liangxiang is built to take in the displaced people, if it is occupied by scholars, the displaced people will have nowhere to settle. ”
After the food and housing were stable, every family worked hard to give birth.
There are men in the family, and they have all added ding, and some of the grass huts that were enough to live in can't be arranged.
The population on the yellow book has skyrocketed.
But where a good township is a big palm, all the land that can be harvested has been collected.
The remaining land is either stone hills, difficult for people to live and cultivate, or fertile land.
Haihan bowed slightly, and said ashamedly: "The students are presumptuous, how can they occupy the place where the homeless people stand, shame, shame!" ”
When Yan Chengjin walked into the yamen, Haihan was coming out of the yamen, and when he saw him take a moment, he was ready to carry the bamboo box to Yaxing.
"This official has something to look for you."
Came to the small courtyard next to the yamen,
Haihan stood aside restrainedly: "I don't know what the adults are looking for students?" ”
"You go back to Hainan." Yan Chengjin Road.
"Students come to the capital after a lot of hard work, just to gain fame, how can they return to Hainan? Adults, why are adults so insistent, and where do students offend adults? ”
Haihan blushed and said cautiously.
had expected that it would be like this, and Yan Chengjin had already made preparations.
took out a letter from his cuff and told Xu Jinzhong to find a wife for Haihan in Qiongzhou Mansion, no matter who he is, anyway, the son he gave birth to is called Hai Rui.
He looked solemn: "This secret letter needs to be sent back to Hainan and handed over to Xu Qianhu, and it must not be leaked to others." ”
Haihan followed Xu Jinzhong's side and worked as a translator, knowing that Xu Qianhu often had secret correspondence with the imperial court.
Without hesitation, he took this secret letter into his arms.
"Since it is a matter of the imperial court, it is incumbent on the students to do so, but why didn't the adults let the officials send it to Xu Qianhu?"
Yan Chengjin said: "The official is not credible, the official only trusts you." ”
With such an IQ, it is difficult to get into the Jinshi.
If it was Wang Shouren, he would have recognized it at a glance.
"When you enter Beijing again, this official will ask Your Majesty for an order to let you enter the country's prison."
Hai Han helped the imperial court to quell the Li Rebellion, and he made great contributions, but the imperial court did not give him a reward, and it was not too difficult to ask him to enter the national prison.
On this day, the wind and the sun are beautiful.
Wang Busui hurriedly came to the Yan Mansion and said, "Young Master, Qiao Xinyuan wants to buy our silk workshop. ”
"Who is Qiao Xinyuan?"
Yan Chengjin thinks that he has memorized the name of a DPRK and China official, and there is no such person as Qiao Xinyuan.
"This person is the richest man among the Jin merchants, and he has more silver taels than the imperial court." Wang Busui was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so he made an analogy and said: "If we calculate according to the profit of our good township, it will take us five years to catch up with him." ”
From the shops and business names owned by Qiao Xinyuan, Wang Busui can roughly calculate it.
Yan Chengjin glanced at the account book sent by Liangxiang, in the past few months, Liangxiang's income has stabilized, which is an extremely dangerous signal.
With the income of today's Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce, it is extremely difficult to catch up with Jin merchants, Hui merchants and Chao merchants.
After the opening of the Silk Road, the Jin merchants in Shanxi gained great benefits.
It is rumored that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Jin merchants helped the Manchus destroy the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty was the dynasty when the capital was first revealed.
The silver has always been in the hands of the ten major merchant gangs, the poorer the poorer, the richer the rich, and the polarization is serious.
Yan Chengjin wants to push the Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce to the position of the first merchant gang in the Ming Dynasty and control the money and silver in the market.
It is precisely to take over the wealth controlled by the merchant gang and avoid being dominated by the merchant gang.
Otherwise, a merchant gang with strong enough financial resources can influence the survival of the Ming Dynasty.
No matter how big an official is in the court, it is useless.
The people who rebelled got the support of the big chaebols, and the Ming Dynasty was finished, just like the election of a certain country in later generations.
Daming's various measures now, all major business gangs have benefited, and collisions are inevitable.
At the moment, with the speed at which the Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce is accumulating wealth, it is obviously unable to catch up with the Jin merchants.
Yan Chengjin thought about mining coal to sell, but the place with the most open-pit coal in the world was in Shanxi, which was the territory of Jin merchants.
If you want to increase your income, you have to expand the source of the silver taels.
Morning
As soon as Yan Chengjin's sedan chair fell at the noon gate, an official came up: "This official is Jiao Fang, the right attendant of the household department, Lord Yan, please take a step to speak." ”
Jiao Fang squinted her eyes and looked at Yan Chengjin.
Yan Chengjin said: "Don't you want to bribe?" This official never accepts bribes, but he is still exempted, and I am going to court. ”
Jiao Fang's face changed slightly, and let the official next to him listen, it was okay.
Before Yan Chengjin could speak, he introduced a person behind him: "This is the clan member of this official's concubine's room, and I have something to do with you." ”
In fact, the so-called concubine room only passed through the door a few days ago.
Qiao Xinyuan arched his hand slightly: "Student Qiao Xinyuan, the shopkeeper Wang should have said to Lord Yan that the student wants to buy the silk workshop in Liangxiang."
Yesterday, before waiting for Wang Dongjia's letter, the students came directly to the adults. ”
Pull Jiao Fang, the right attendant of the ministry, this is to force the official to sell?
Jiao Fang was extremely famous during the Zhengde period.
He colluded with Liu Jin to jointly take charge of the court, and his power was monstrous.
It was thanks to his help that Liu Jian and Li Dongyang repeatedly advised to no avail.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Xinyuan could catch his boat.
Yan Chengjin thought for a while and said, "The workshop is not for sale, and the official is going to the court." He turned and walked into the palace.
Qiao Xinyuan looked at Jiao Fang, Jiao Fang's chest rose and fell slightly in anger, and Yan Chengjin didn't even sell his face.
"When the official enters the palace, I will discuss it with him."
