Chapter 156: Temptation and Turning the Face (Part 5)
Yan Maoqing's three-plate axe did gain a lot of fame.
said that his establishment of a academy in Xixi was a pinching of the mentality of a scholar.
Some of the showmen learned that this academy was run by the governor, and they rushed to the academy one after another, and some even fought for the quota, which was jaw-dropping for a while.
Some people even wrote poems to praise Yan Maoqing's exploits.
But there are gains and losses, and after learning the news, an imperial historian impeached Yan Maoqing for selling his reputation and reputation, and requested that Yan Maoqing be severely punished.
Yan Maoqing is also a core member of the Yan Party, so he naturally can't hang up his face when he is impeached like this.
However, Yushi does not need a reason to impeach people, and Yan Maoqing is not easy to refute.
Anyway, it doesn't matter, just think that Yushi is a fart.
He still focused on making money.
After Yan Maoqing's disdainful efforts, he finally opened a hole in commercial taxes, and put the additional tax amount into his pocket with some operation.
According to the suggestion of the curtain guests, Yan Maoqing wanted to give half of the silver to the governor to show his heart.
Of course, the money can't be sent directly, after all, he and Governor Zhu are not familiar with each other, and it will be troublesome if he gets rid of it.
Yan Maoqing decided to test one or two.
If Governor Zhu is on the road, he will continue to send silver.
Yan Maoqing found an opportunity to offer to inspect the weaving with Zhu Kun.
Although the Son of Heaven set up a special weaving eunuch in Hangzhou to grasp this matter, there was no problem for the governor and governor to ask one or two.
Zhu Kun hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Yan Maoqing was overjoyed and hurriedly asked someone to arrange a matter.
The silk produced by the weaving yamen was directly used by the royal family, so the annual production was extremely limited.
But there will still be some leftovers.
These are often sold to dignitaries and dignitaries, and in any case do not go to the market.
This weaving eunuch's surname is He, and his name is light.
After absorbing the fate of the previous weaving eunuch who was sharp and cleaned up, He Youguang has always been very low-key.
But low-key is low-key, and the silver still has to be fished.
Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, relying on the weaving yamen, of course, to rely on silk.
Yan Maoqing wanted to buy the leftover silk, and He Youguang was naturally happy to see it.
To He Youguang's surprise, the Governor also came.
Eunuch He was happy for a while.
There is a way that fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, and the governor and the governor are most assured that he buys these silks.
It's not safe for others to buy him.
However, it was said that after the weaving eunuch accompanied Yan Maoqing and Governor Zhu to inspect, Yan Maoqing took the initiative to raise the matter.
Zhu Kun didn't know it.
This was naturally expected by Yan Maoqing.
He hinted to Governor Zhu that he could buy these silks and give them to Governor Zhu.
Zhu Kun couldn't help but be furious.
Yan Maoqing dared to openly bribe him!
Although Yan Maoqing didn't want to give him silver, there was not much difference between it and silver.
Silk was even the emperor's reward for his courtiers, and it was harder than silver.
Yan Maoqing thought that this was not a bribe?
Zhu Kun scolded Yan Maoqing and then brushed his sleeves away, leaving Yan Maoqing stunned on the spot.
Eunuch He said out of tune at this time: "Can you still buy this silk?" ”
Of course, Yan Maoqing would not buy it again, shook his head and walked away.
Eunuch He was dumbfounded for a moment.
The two of you are making fun of our house!
Shameless, shameless!
Don't want to buy a silk from us in the future!
...
...
However, it was said that after Yan Maoqing returned to the governor's yamen, he dropped several pieces of porcelain in a row.
He kindly wanted to give the silk surnamed Zhu, and the surname Zhu didn't want it, so why accuse him.
Hypocrisy, this guy is so hypocritical!
Fortunately, he didn't send the silver directly, otherwise he might have been handled by the surnamed Zhu.
Yan Maoqing put a cold ass on his white hot face, and naturally he was angry, and vowed to make the surname Zhu pay.
He immediately wrote a letter to his godfather Yan Song, in which he tried his best to slander Zhu Kun, the most important thing was to show that Zhu Kun and them were not all the way, and suggested that Yan Song use the power in his hands to take Zhu Kun and replace him with his own.
Soon Yan Song replied to Yan Maoqing.
Yan Song said very clearly, if Yan Maoqing wants to bring down Zhu Kun, he must start collecting criminal evidence by himself. Yan Song can give him support when necessary.
But this matter must be led by Yan Maoqing, and Yan Song is only an assistant.
Yan Maoqing was naturally a little dissatisfied after receiving this letter.
He doesn't respect Yan Song less on weekdays, and he screams one godfather after another than he is to his own father.
Now Yan Song has started to be the shopkeeper, and everything has to be his contribution.
However, Yan Maoqing was helpless except to complain a few words.
He has long been a member of the strict party, and he has been deeply branded, and now it is too late to regret it even if he wants to.
What's more, Yan Maoqing didn't want to regret it.
If it weren't for Yan Song, he would definitely not have been promoted so quickly, let alone achieved the high position of governor of Zhejiang.
The benefits of joining the Yan Party are big enough.
Since he has to rely on himself, Yan Maoqing naturally has to hurry up the arrangement.
There is no doubt that Zhu Kun has a place in the heart of the Son of Heaven, otherwise when the ministers wrote to impeach Zhu Kun, His Majesty would not have stepped forward to protect him.
In this case, giving Zhu Kunan an an ordinary crime is not enough to bring him down, it must be a felony.
Among the many crimes, the most serious is the conspiracy to misbehave with the self-respect of the army.
The emperor has always been afraid of the feudal officials holding military power.
Now that Zhu Kun is in charge of the military power of Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, he can make a single decision, if he has the intention to rebel, it is really possible to set off a monstrous wave.
But this impeachment is no joke.
If the rebellion of a defiler is proved to be untrue, he will be revived.
This type of impeachment is a type that must be won by one blow and must not be set on fire.
Yan Maoqing was new to the city, and the information he could gather was very limited.
If you want to impeach Zhu Kun, these are obviously not enough.
If necessary, it is even necessary to falsify some evidence.
Yan Maoqing is ready for a long-term struggle.
The mutual tilting above the officialdom is sometimes so cruel, since it is not a person all the way, it must be separated.
After this incident, the relationship between the two has been life-and-death.
...
...
Xu Yan wrote a letter to his family and ordered him to return to his hometown in Ningbo.
Xu Huaiyuan was full of emotion after seeing his son's family letter.
In addition to greeting his parents, the son asked him about the feasibility of opening a bank.
Although the Xu family has been in business for generations, they have really never touched this industry.
Xu Huaiyuan is also very unfamiliar with Qianzhuang.
He really couldn't understand why his son suddenly wanted to open a bank.
However, judging from his son's experience in the past, the business he advocated basically did not lose money.
After some thought, Xu Huaiyuan decided to give it a try. Of course, if the momentum is not right, he will stop the loss in time.
There is a fundamental difference between a businessman and a scholar.
Scholars value face very seriously, while businessmen are just the opposite, as long as they can make money, face is not important at all.
