On 10 July, businessmen from all over the country basically rushed to Beijing, and up to now, more than 20,000 people have signed up to participate in the selection of imperial merchants.

In addition to hundreds of powerful merchants who are bound to compete for the title of imperial merchants, there are also some who just come to try their luck, and more businessmen come to Beijing to see this grand event, by the way, to make good connections and tap business opportunities.

More than 500 of them were invited by the Ministry of Households to come to Beijing to participate in the selection of imperial merchants, and the Ministry of Households had already negotiated with them, and once they were selected, the Ministry of Households would take out real money to invest in their banks and authorize them to issue treasury bonds.

On July 11, the Ministry of Internal Affairs posted a notice announcing the method of selecting imperial merchants.

There are three rounds of selection of imperial businessmen, and after the three rounds, 100 to 300 will be selected, and the final quota will be determined by the emperor.

Among them, the first round of selection is a written test, and the assessment content is all related to business.

On July 20, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will hold a written examination in the Xicheng Huangzhuang, and all registered businessmen can choose to send a representative to participate, regardless of whether they are at the helm of the firm.

Only 5,000 people were left in the first round of selection, and the top 10 in the written test could directly enter the final round without going through the second random selection.

At the end, the details of the written test are attached, such as bringing your own food for the day, bringing your own pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., and any books are allowed to be brought in the written test here, and will not be searched.

As soon as the notice of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was posted, less than half of it spread to everyone in the city, and the businessman who originally felt hopeless instantly had a fighting spirit, and even if he could not be selected in the end, if he could get a good ranking in the written examination, he would also be famous all over the world.

So they got ready one after another, and some looked through books such as "The Biography of the Goods and Colonies", "Ji Ran Chapter", "Treatise on Salt and Iron", "Tao Zhu Gong Business Classics", "Scholars and Merchants", and "The Water and Land Distance of the World", and some discussed with each other what topics the Internal Affairs Office would come up with, and some asked around who made the questions and what questions they would make.

Therefore, the participants were all businessmen, and the people of Beijing also joined in one after another, vying to talk, and for a time the atmosphere in Beijing was even more noisy than the triennial examination.

Of course, many ministers in the DPRK and China have written letters to impeach the Ministry of Internal Affairs, bluntly saying that businessmen are playing with ink and insulting Swen, strongly suggesting that the selection of imperial merchants be abolished, and even saying that valuing commerce and suppressing agriculture will shake the country's foundation.

Emperor Yuan Yong only read a few books, then asked people to move all these folds away, and sneered at the content of it, the people who have always rebelled are farmers who have never heard of businessmen turning the sky.

Moreover, the selection of imperial merchants this time has nothing to do with valuing commerce and suppressing agriculture, and the national policy of the imperial court has always been to emphasize agriculture and suppress business.

Emperor Yuan Yong knew in his heart that these people who were on the fold were either some stubborn scholars, or people who were red-eyed and did not get benefits.

In this selection, just the registration fee, the Ministry of Internal Affairs collected more than 10 million taels, and the local governments at all levels also collected a lot of money, and thanks to this action, they gained more local forces to be loyal.

So many businessmen traveled long distances to Beijing, and the expenses along the way, the expenses in Beijing, and even the taxes increased a lot.

This time, whether it is politically or economically, the effect is extremely significant, so Emperor Yuanyong recognizes Lu Jing's talent even more.

Xilin Street in Beijing, Bafang Inn, Zhang Chengxin and Zhang Jingyi, the father and son, are sitting opposite each other.

Zhang Chengcheng glanced at the "Hundred Forbearance Sutra of Business" in his son's hand, and said with a smile: "Since the imperial court has stated that you can bring any books, it means that the test questions are not taken from books. ”

"My son thinks the same, but he doesn't watch anything, and he always has no bottom in his heart!" Zhang Jingyi nodded and said, although he is usually very conceited, thinking that in business, no one in the world can compare with him except his own Laozi, but at this moment, he is not completely sure that he can stand out from tens of thousands of people.

,

If you can't even pass the first round, no matter how strong your financial resources are, you can only stop with hatred.

"If you are not sure, let it be your father!" Zhang Cheng stared at his son and said.

Zhang Jingyi's face stiffened when she heard this, her expression was a little gloomy, she hesitated for a long time, and knelt down on her knees and said: "Please father fulfill his son, and his son will definitely let him reach the top of the list and not disappoint his father." ”

Zhang Chengxin ignored his son's words, but asked, "Do you remember what I taught you after your first defeat?" ”

Zhang Jingyi nodded and said: "It is better to have the destruction of perfection than to have a reputation; It is better to have disasters without vain than to have blessings that are not shared. ”

Zhang Chengxin continued to ask: "If you don't get the name of the imperial merchant this time, wouldn't the Zhang family be the Zhang family?" ”

Zhang Jingyi shook her head and said: "If you don't get elected this time, my son will work harder to improve himself, run the family's business better, and strive for the next election!" ”

Zhang Cheng nodded heartily and said: "Having the name of an imperial merchant is not necessarily a good thing, and it is not necessarily a bad thing if you don't have it, since you want to go, go ahead, remember to give first and then take, if you don't give, you won't take it!" ”

Zhang Jingyi nodded, completely calmed down, and quietly watched the "Hundred Forbearance Sutra of Business" in his hand.

On the second floor of the Shangdong Inn on the same street, a father and daughter from Hangzhou are in a dilemma.

Because her father Wang Youxiang was not very literate, Wang Suxiu was worried that her father would not be able to read and write completely during the written test and would not be able to answer the questions, so she wanted to disguise herself as a man to take the written test.

Wang Youxiang has only one daughter, and the pain is abnormal, so he is naturally reluctant to let his daughter take risks, so the father and daughter are in an argument.

"The court didn't say that women were not allowed to participate, and besides, the notices were written and not searched, and daughters often pretended to be men, and they couldn't show any flaws when they thought about it!" Wang Suxiu said that it took a lot of trouble for her family to get a letter of recommendation from the state capital, and she came all the way to Beijing.

"It's already against the decency for a girl of yours to follow me everywhere, in case it is found out, the court will investigate it, and we can't afford to be guilty!" Wang Youxiang shook his head and said, even if he couldn't answer a question, he didn't want his daughter to go for him.

Wang Suxiu begged for a long time, but when she saw that her father just didn't let go, she couldn't help complaining: "The court is really right, and it doesn't say that it is good to answer the question in advance, not to mention that we have lost thousands of taels of silver, and we have wasted so much time!" ”

"Shut up!" Wang Youxiang reprimanded lightly, then got up, opened the door and looked out, and was relieved to see that there was no one outside.

After returning, he hurriedly reprimanded in a low voice: "This is the capital, no better than Hangzhou, no matter how open-mouthed you are, I will let someone send you back tomorrow!" ”

Wang Suxiu knew that she was speechless, so she hurriedly walked to her father's side, beating her back and rubbing her shoulders to admit her mistake.

Wang Youxiang sighed helplessly, he had a headache for his daughter's son, because there was only one daughter in his life, and it hurt her since she was a child, and she was spoiled.

After the father and daughter reconciled, Wang Youxiang saw his daughter pouting, so he persuaded: "The silver has been lost, and then it will be earned back, and I have met a lot of people this time, and the goods we shipped from Hangzhou have also been sold out. ”

"My daughter just doesn't want to go back like this!" Wang Suxiu snorted lightly, wanting to prove to her father that if she didn't recruit a son-in-law, she could also run the family business.

Wang Youxiang comforted his daughter and said: "Maybe the imperial court has also thought of this situation, and it may not be necessary that there will be arrangements at that time!" ”

Wang Suxiu didn't want to speak, and thought about how to convince her father.
