Jabbs's original name was Lin Yihu, he was a Jinyi Wei spy who broke into the enemy's interior, and on the roster of the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, Lin Yihu was the official title of deputy commander, and he also had the title of Count of Loyal and Yong, and he had his grange in Fengyang Mansion and Shuntian Mansion, and he had a mansion in Yingtian and Wuhan, and he also had a mansion in Tangquan Town in Yingtianfu.

But Jabbs is not uncommon at all for the high-ranking officials, generous and prominent lords given to him by the Ming Dynasty...... He is a person who is indifferent to fame and fortune, does not like to be an official, and only wants to do something useful for the country, the nation, and the emperor.

But now...... The Manchurian group outside the customs will not last long! It is estimated that it will be wiped out in a few years!

After Guanwai was recovered by the Ming Dynasty, what should he do, the big proprietor of Jia Le City, who is not an official, does not want a knight, and is dedicated to being a spy for the country and the people, and what should he do with Jia Bus, the richest man in Manchuria?

Can the richest man still be the richest man? Who is Jia Le City? That's a lot of money! At the beginning, Jia Le Market Bank was a buying and selling firm, and there was not much market. However, under the painstaking management of Jabbs for more than ten years, the market has become bigger and bigger, and gradually formed a large-scale comprehensive business group spanning many industries such as commerce, handicrafts, shipping, silver, pharmaceuticals and salt. And also drove the semicolon to Acapulco and San Diego on the other side of the ocean!

Such a large part of the industry, all of which he worked hard to achieve, now there are hundreds of thousands of millions of net profits every year, and the Ming court has contributed some capital, and the total is hundreds of thousands of taels......

Now if he wants Gibbs to hand over such a large share of the property and then become Lin Yihu, how can he be willing to do it? Of course, he didn't do it for money, the main thing was that Jia Le City was pulled up by him little by little, and he was a part of his life!

Thinking that a part of his life was probably going to be gone, Jabbs's mood suddenly became bad, and he couldn't help but shed tears.

Just as he was about to cry, the carriage he was riding in suddenly stopped, and then the door of the carriage was opened.

Got home?

When he thought of home, Jabbs sighed again, he could row and run horses in the Hanyang house!

There are thirty concubines living in it, one a day, and no duplicate one for a month.

If I go back to Nanjing, what will happen to so many concubines and so many children born to concubines? How much does a loyal and brave man and a deputy commander earn in a year?

Do you want to dismiss some concubines?

But after being together for so long, I have been in love for a long time!

Sighing again, Gibbs got out of the carriage weakly, and when he looked up, he saw that the door was quite wide, and it looked very magnificent, and the high-walled compound was ...... Is this really an earl's house?

As soon as the mood was good, Jabooth saw that the door was lined up, and there were four big words on it: "Pangjia Garden"!

Going to the wrong place? Jabbs said in his heart: How did it become the garden of the Pang family?

Just as he was about to find someone to ask, a plainclothes brocade guard who sent him over said to him with a smile: "Jia Yuanwai, you have arrived at the place, please come in!" ”

"This is ......," Jabbs wanted to ask.

But the plainclothes brocade guard replied, "I don't know! ”

I don't know where it is, but you sent someone...... Jabbs looked left and right, sighed, and went inside! Most of them are the yamen of Jinyiwei!

He walked to the closed gate, and just as he wanted to knock on the door, the door opened by itself, and a male duck's voice came from inside: "Is it Lin Zhongyong?" ”

Jabbs was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that his title was Kenan Zhongyong, and hurriedly responded: "Xiaguan Lin Yihu." ”

There was a creak, and the crack in the door opened a little wider.

"Come in."

Then go inside!

Jabbs took a breath and stepped inside. After entering, I found that this was not the yamen of the Jinyi Guard. Because the man who was talking to him inside the door was wearing a tuxedo with a very bright color and exaggerated patterns, and a white wig on his head...... Jinyiwei should not be allowed to dress like this.

And that person's appearance and behavior look a bit like a eunuch!

What the hell is this place?

With a puzzled head, Jabus followed the eunuch for a while in the courtyard of the mansion, through a verdant lawn, over a flowerbed, and finally in front of a Western-style three-story building.

The door to the hall on the ground floor of the building was open, and there was an old aunt dressed as a court lady. The dressed eunuch said to the aunt: "Wang Yiren, Count Lin has brought it." ”

What the? Pleasant? Jabus was taken aback, the title of the housekeeper beside the nine concubines of the harem!

"Uncle Zhongyong, come with me." The aunt beckoned to Jabus, but Jabus didn't dare to move.

"Loyal and brave uncle!" Aunt was unhappy, "Do you want Your Majesty to wait for a long time?" ”

Your Majesty?

Jabus was a little dizzy, why was the emperor here?

What is this place?

Here is Chu Tzu Hong and his royal mistress Mary. Mancini's nest of peace was also a place for Emperor Zhu to conduct personal business activities.

And Mary. In addition to acting as Zhu Cihong's mistress, Mancini was also a small partner of him in business - Emperor Zhu had to make any money, and would not only stare at arms, banks, minting silver coins, and digging gold and opening copper mines.

In his opinion, culture and fashion are more profitable than arms, banks, and mining.

For example, the silk and porcelain exported by the Ming Dynasty, the lacquerware exported by Japan, and the furs and Dongzhu exported from Manchuria are all sold in culture and fashion! To the Puritans in England, all of them were useless rubbish......

And Chu Cihong now hopes to pass through Mary. Mancini and her vixen sisters, as well as King Louis XIV of France himself, led the European craze for tea, pearl ornaments, and furs.

Tea is a new market waiting to be explored, while pearls and fur products are markets that need to be deeply developed – pearls and furs exported by the Qing Dynasty through Spain were only raw materials, not finished products delivered to consumers, and there is still a lot of profit to be tapped!

Zhu Cihong summoned Jabus from Korea to discuss with him how to take over the pearl and fur trade, which would definitely not be possible after the Battle of Kagoshima Bay. But the demand in Europe is still there, so Daming can take over and continue to do it, and also do a good job to make it bigger and grab more profits.

In addition to Jabus, Emperor Zhu also summoned Huang Jiang, the chief treasurer of the Haishang Bank, in the garden of the Pang family today. The two of them sat on a platform on the second floor of the small building, talking and chatting while watching the mountain scenery of the old mountain.

Mary was also here, dressed in a long white silk dress, fiddling with a small red clay stove, a copper kettle, a large bottle of milk, a tea leaf, a sugar and some cups and saucers.

She's trying to make milk tea...... In the future, there will probably be no British milk tea in the world, but French milk tea!

According to Mary's research, the combination of milk, tea, and sugar not only produces a wonderful taste, but also has a beauty effect - this is the little secret of Mancini's family, why does her family have so many beauties? It's the magic effect of milk tea!

Emperor Zhu and Huang shopkeeper each had a coffee cup, and there was no coffee in the cup, which was the milk tea that Mary had brewed before.

While drinking milk tea, the two were discussing the business of opening a bank in Europe, and in Zhu Cihong's plan, Huang Jiang would be the first general manager of the Imperial Bank!

"Lao Huang, I'm going to work hard for you, this road is sinister, you must take care of your body." Zhu Cihong smiled at the profiteer who followed him in Beijing and said, "When you arrive in Europe, you have to prepare to live for a long time...... The environment in Paris is not very good, you can buy a manor house in the countryside and make a home.

Also, remember to bring some pearls and furs...... It was to be processed by the best craftsmen, placed in the most precious Japanese lacquerware, and given to the ladies and ladies who could come and go in and out of the French court...... Mary, remember to make a list for Shopkeeper Huang. ”
