Chapter 917: Jokes
The more he thought about it, the more intriguing the situation became, Bai Liyan didn't plan to rush to deal with this matter, he said:
"This matter is very important, and Ben Hou can't reply to Bo Yuanjun about it, why don't you wait for Ben Hou to report to my king and then reply to your honor."
Bo Yuanjun gladly accepted it, with a generous smile:
"Just wait a few more days according to what Marquis Yongxing said."
"Then this piece of gold and silver ore Boyuanjun will not be stingy and leave it to Benhou."
"It's okay, Yongxing Hou just stays. In addition, Benjun heard some rumors, and today he happened to ask Yongxing Hou for verification, and hoped that Hou Ye could tell the truth. ”
"Oh......" Bai Liyan sighed lightly, thinking that Ji Feng's fox tail was finally revealed: "I don't know what Bo Yuanjun wants to ask?" ”
"I heard that the Marquis of Yongxing intends to control the deed, but is there such a thing?"
"Why, wouldn't it be Bo Yuanjun who also asked someone to bet on this deal in the royal city."
"No, no, no." Ji Feng was busy denying it, and then said: "I just heard about it, and there are also rumors that there are many people who have a deed, and Yongxing Hou Xingshi mobilized the crowd to rectify the deed, and I am afraid that the damage will not be shallow." ”
"Hehe, there is no need for Bo Yuanjun to worry about this matter, Ben Hou knows it in his heart, and he will definitely give a satisfactory answer to all parties."
"Oh...... This is good, this is good......" Ji Feng praised him, but he didn't like it.
Before the "deed" was exposed, the business affairs of the department store were all taken care of by Jiang Rong, Qiao Fu'er, and Xiao Er, and Bailiyan didn't ask much, and the department store and the imperial court were only responsible for shipping for Yongxing City, and they didn't care about the whereabouts of the goods after they were sold, and they didn't know much about the following transactions over the years.
In addition, the imperfection of the banking system and laws of economic and financial institutions, and the lack of a long-term mechanism often form a bureaucracy in economic and financial institutions, resulting in the formation of deeds and mortgages that have not attracted official attention.
Ji Feng said that he was not involved, but in fact he was lying outright, because he was worried that the Xian State would completely ban the deed and suffer losses.
After the Wang Family Incident, Bai Liyan learned about the black market situation through private, and preliminarily estimated the flow of funds to participate in the resale of the underground black market deed in Wang Family City for one year, and conservatively estimated that there were always four million inches of silver, which was only a lot more.
Don't look at this amount is very large, if it is understood as the total trading volume of the stock market in a year, distributed to each day, in fact, it is only one or two hundred thousand inches of silver deed trading volume, planing the principal, the real price rises and the difference in the price is not much, this is still the volume of precious metals, the total annual turnover of gold and silver Tongbao is much greater than this number.
Through the continuous resale of the deed, the profits sought in the middle are as little as dozens of hundreds of Singapore dollars or gold and silver, and as many as hundreds or thousands.
After sending Ji Feng away, Zhou Kong walked out of the side hall and came to his side:
"He clearly has bad intentions and can't trust him easily."
"What Madame said is that I always feel that there is something strange in it, and it is better to be cautious. Wei Qi! ”
Wei Qi stepped forward and said:
"What does Master Hou command?"
Bai Liyan took the piece of gold and silver ore and handed it to Wei Qi to explain in detail:
"Immediately send it to the physical and chemical laboratory of the Yongxing City Technology Department, so that they can separate the ore components as soon as possible and calculate the proportion of each element, the sooner the better."
"No."
After the relocation of Yongxing Chemical, Lincheng and Yongxing each have a large comprehensive physical and chemical laboratory, and a number of chemical laboratories are involved in chemical research and production.
At the same time, Bailiyan allocates special funds every year to subsidize individuals who have achieved academic success to devote themselves to chemical research, and promises to engage in related work and private researchers within ten years after graduation, after verification and assessment by the University Hall, they can recruit apprentices on their own, and the apprentices are recommended and allowed to be selected through professional counterpart channels, and those who pass will be directly promoted to the University Hall for further study, and can be recognized for their academic qualifications after graduation.
Of course, it would be a big mistake to think that you can do whatever you want with the money, all the funds are only used to pay the researchers' salaries and research expenses, and are not allowed to be used for other purposes, and the monthly collection and reimbursement are specially verified by the financial department of the University Hall.
In view of the inherent dangers and importance of chemical research, the fact that practitioners and their families have free medical benefits is also unique.
At present, the atmosphere is simple, the stall is not large, and it is relatively easy to supervise and control.
Seeing off Ji Feng, Bai Liyan slowly returned to the inner house to continue the unfinished topic with Jiang Qian and Chen Yunfeng.
After leaving, Jiang Rong said a lot of gossip, and when she entered the house, she only heard the three of them laughing, and Bai Liyan didn't know why she asked:
"What do you say, so happy?"
Jiang Qian said with a smile:
"Sister Rong said brother-in-law, you will ascend to heaven and become an immortal one day sooner or later, I asked why, Sister Rong said that you said that you wanted to go to the moon to see the stars, I said how to get the moon, Sister Rong said of course it is to fly up, I said that it must be you dreaming, but she did not believe it."
"I laughed out loud about it." Baili Yan didn't think so, but Jiang Rong puffed up her chest and said, "Yanzi, didn't you say that you would definitely be able to go to the moon to see the stars one day, you didn't say it." ”
"I said it, but it was at least more than a hundred years from now, how can it be done now."
Jiang Rong took this as a handle and reasoned with Jiang Qian:
"See, the swallow said it can be done, that is, it will definitely be able to do it."
"Okay, okay, my brother can't admit it. After a hundred years, don't forget to bring a pot of wine to my brother's grave and tell me, and I will admit defeat, hahaha......"
Jiang Qian leaned forward and laughed, Jiang Rong was angry:
"You're really, when did Swallow say a lie."
Due to the development of astronomy, the theory of the planet and the theory of the circle of the earth have been widely recognized in the Ligong School, Yuke and Yongxing City, but secular public opinion is still a sensitive topic, and the outside world does not know much.
To say whether it is possible to land on the moon in a hundred years, Bailiyan himself is very optimistic, with the current technical route, the basic categories of mathematics, physics and chemistry have been formed, and the continuous development and exploration of 30 to 50 years, nuclear physics and missile and rocket theory will appear, and it is not just a dream to achieve the moon landing in a hundred years.
After all, Jiang Gan's vision is bound by the background and cognition of the times, and what he is staring at is always only one acre and three points of land at the door of his house, as for whether the planet is round or square, what does it have to do with him.
Sitting down, Jiang Rong handed over a cup of green tea and asked:
"Ji Feng sent it away."
Bai Liyan nodded and said:
"Well, Ji Feng is not small, he doesn't want to spend a penny, so he wants to defraud more than 3.4 million goods from Xianguo, it's shameless."
"It's impossible, if you don't give money and still want goods, he's crazy." Jiang Rong raised her eyebrows in shock, but looking at Bailiyan's expression, it seemed that there was another clue, and she asked again: "Did you still agree." ”
"Of course not, he asked Qianfang to take out all the loans and pay them off in ten years, I thought about it, there was something wrong with it, so I didn't promise him."
"You can't say yes. This thief and profiteer eats people and does not spit out bones, and if you lend him money, you will not be able to pay it back. ”
"Rong'er knows this, but her husband doesn't know."
In fact, Ji Feng also knew that Bailiyan would never agree, but he still offered Bailiyan a condition that was difficult to refuse, "gold and silver ore".
Green tea exudes mellow, the faint sweet smell is invigorating, Xianguo due to the influence of climate and latitude, early spring tea, spring tea are early, after years of breeding and cultivation, the quality of tea has been greatly improved, but on the whole it is not as good as the high mountain tea of Zhiguo and the tea grown by the temperature difference between morning and evening in the mainland.
Baili Yan's understanding is that the tea in the low latitudes is too early, losing the time to conceive and conserve, the altitude and inland latitude of Zhiguo have created a unique tea growth environment and cycle, there is enough time to nurture the nutrients of plants, absorb more essence of heaven and earth, and naturally produce the best tea in the Central Plains.
After tasting the unique charm of afternoon tea, Bailiyan gently put down the tea cup and continued to pick up the previous topic:
"The king summoned the magnates to gather in the tomb, not only to deter the nobles with the king's dependents, but also to test the details of the magnates and nobles in order to levy a horse tax. My brother and I have already explained in detail how to collect the horse tax, and as for how to choose, my brother-in-law and father-in-law can decide for themselves.
In short, the horse tax is only limited to the tax-free number and grade, not the number of horses, and then there is the fact that the horse tax can be exempted in wartime, and the imperial court allows the expansion of cavalry, but after the war, it still has to be cut, and there is no other way. If Guangxin insists on raising horses, the horse tax will not be helpless. ”
"Sister Rong said your difficulties, and now there is no other way, just cut it, it may not be a good thing not to raise horses."
Hearing that Jiang Gan's tone was wrong, Bai Liyan hurriedly asked again:
"Don't you want to divert the money you saved for raising horses for raising soldiers?"
"That's not true, after discussing with Mr. Chen, I thought to buy some boats, or warships, and go to sea."
"For the time being, I don't recommend my brother-in-law to set foot in this sea, if it's offshore, it's okay, and you must not go to the far sea."
"Why is that?" Chen Yunfeng asked on the side, Bai Liyan was silent and her eyes were solemn, her expression fluctuated slightly, as if she was doing another fierce ideological struggle.
Jiang Qian and Chen Yunfeng exchanged glances, and Jiang Qian asked carefully:
"What's the problem with my brother-in-law?"
"Did my brother-in-law hear something from General Chen Qu?" Bai Liyan's eyes were fixed tightly, and her deep gaze seemed to be torturing Jiang Qian.
"No, I didn't ask for any news from Chen Qu, if you don't believe it, you can confront Chen Qu."
"I still know what my brother-in-law is, and Chen Qu is not an open-mouthed person, but does my brother-in-law know what is on the north side of the sea?"
Jiang Qian and Chen Yunfeng exchanged glances again, thinking of something in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say anything.
"What is my brother-in-law referring to?"
"Brother in-law must have heard from Chen Qu's naval subordinates that there is land north of the sea, right?"
"This ......"
Jiang Qian's words were stopped, and Bai Liyan hurriedly said:
"Brother in law don't want to hide it from me, do you want to buy a ship to go to sea, find a vast land to seek to establish a foundation overseas, but that's the case?"
Jiang Qian sighed and said:
"There are rumors in the navy of Guangxin Port that there is land in the north of the North Sea, and King Xian is preparing to build a navy to go to sea in order to find overseas land, so I also want people to try their luck at sea."
"Brother-in-law, I advise my brother-in-law to dispel this idea as soon as possible, and concentrating on managing Guangxin is the greatest blessing, and the matter of going to the ocean is by no means as simple as my brother-in-law takes it for granted."
"Why is this, why can others, but only Guangxin cannot?" Jiang Qian asked.
"Overseas is dangerous, it is definitely not your strength to go to sea, my brother-in-law only sees others go to sea, but I know how many people have survived."
