313 Faces of all beings
"My lord, I thought that the previous suggestion might as well be done now!"
After finally suppressing the riots in Suzhou City for a while, Master Han Jin suddenly brought up his previous suggestion again.
"At least now, the adult's worries are no longer there, even if someone else notices it and uses it as a lever to attack the adult, the adult doesn't need to care too much, right?"
There was a riot with more than 200 dead and injured people, but Nam so Yuan no longer had to look ahead and backward, anyway, this incident alone had already made his future dim, so he didn't need to worry too much about the previous master's advice now.
"Master, do you think that the hidden dangers in our Suzhou City have not been eliminated?"
Nam so won's expression suddenly sank.
"What do you think, sir?"
Han Jin didn't answer the rhetorical question, although Nam so Won was very unhappy recently because of these troublesome things in the city, but as a staff member, Han Jin still ignored Dong Weng's chaotic mood at this time, and bluntly said his own suggestion.
“……”
After being silent for a long time, Nam so Won had to sigh dejectedly.
"Hey!"
"In your opinion, what should we do first?"
"My lord, our top priority is to find a way to help the local merchants open a trade route to the outside world, as long as the merchants can sell their goods, then they will have the money to pay the wages owed to the workers!"
"Xiangshanao and my Suzhou are far away, and we need to delay at least more than a month to come, so we can take advantage of this time to gather the factory owners who are closed down and about to close down in the city, and let them classify the goods in their hands first, so that it is convenient for us to negotiate with the little Francos of Xiangshanao."
"In fact, as early as half a month ago, I had already lined up people to go to Xiangshanao to contact Xiao Franco, and in half a month, I should be able to reply."
Han Jin's self-saving move, in fact, they all know that it is not a real plan to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle, as long as the war between Hongmen and Daming is not over, then they will not have a really good time as local business owners.
"But in our city now, in addition to the problems of these factories and workshops, shouldn't the primary problem be the problem of food?"
Han Jin is now proposing to trade with the little Franco, and Nam so Won will not really oppose it, but he is more concerned about whether there is a way to eliminate the real hidden dangers in the city.
"My lord, the increase in grain prices, in addition to the robbery of unscrupulous merchants, is actually related to the decision of the Nanyang Grain Road, and my land in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is more of a different way."
"But the land in our house has always been here, but due to the wrong weather season, we can't replant food."
"As long as we insist on growing grain for the next season, then with my reputation as the land of fish and rice, even if these grain merchants want to raise prices again, I'm afraid it will be impossible, right?"
"No matter how bad it is, although it is not close to the emerging grain producing areas of Huguang in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Huguang, there is a Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and the Yangtze River, and there are also advantages in transportation."
"Don't you have a friend who serves as the prefect of Hunan? It's better to repair a book, ask it to help, and borrow tens of thousands of stones of grain

It's not impossible! ”
Although he said it lightly, Han Jin himself knew that if these things really had to be done, it would be difficult and heavy, and with his understanding of the adult he served, there was a chance that the place would not be able to do these things.
However, even if he was comforting the other party, Han Jin had to do his best to convince this adult, so that he could still make himself, Dong Weng, have more vitality without harming his own interests.
Although Han Jin failed to embark on the right path on the road of the imperial examination due to knowledge, luck and other reasons, he has been reading poetry and books for decades, at least he Han Jin has not lost the purity of his heart, and he still has the most basic conscience.
"Rong Benguan think again!"
Sure enough, Nam so Won's hesitant personality once again gained the upper hand.
"Your Excellency!"
Han Jin had to continue to insist: "This riot, as well as the crisis facing the city, is actually not an opportunity for us!" ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"In the long liquidation, the amount we have used in the past few years, as well as the gap left by the previous prefect, we can take advantage of this relief to use this opportunity to clear all these things."
"Anyway, no matter what happens next, what you can do is to do your best to make up for the problems that arose before and not let the next riot happen."
"Take this opportunity to take out the Pythium grain in the long closing warehouse to help the people, let everyone let go of their worries, and buy time for grain planting next year, which may not turn into an opportunity."
"The reason why I suggest that adults continue to help factory owners open their sales channels is not only to give most of the unemployed workers in the city a chance to return to work, but also to help adults and take this opportunity to make a good profit."
"The previous riots are flaws that we can't cover up, and in the next Beijing investigation, it is very likely that the adults will lose their current status, and no one knows where they will move in the end."
"If you want to continue to preside over the prefect of Suzhou, or if you can have a good place to go when you move to another mansion in the future, then you will inevitably need more money to deal with it."
"The amount of money needed to deal with the adults above is not a small amount, and with the current family background of the adults, I am afraid that they will also bleed heavily!"
"It's better to take advantage of the existing few times, why don't you help the factory owners, and when the time comes, you really want to be able to find a way for them to live, these businessmen will give the adults a thank you gift in order to thank the adults for their reconstruction!"
Han Jin also fought hard, in order to help the people and merchants in the city, he spent a lot of effort to impress Nam so Yuan, the proprietor!
"Oh??"
In the face of interests, Nam so Won, who had been hesitant before, suddenly began to waver.
In the next position of the governor of Suzhou Prefecture, I am afraid that Nan Zhuyuan will not be able to sit firmly, and his next plan is to make the most of it while he is still in this position.
It's just that now with the war between the Ming Court and Hongmen, Suzhou Mansion, which originally had a great prospect, has suddenly become a duck feather, full of factories and workshops that are about to close down, as well as people who have lost their jobs, and a depressed market

Nam so won is not so optimistic about the next money scene!
However, now Han Jin's proposal moved him by stabbing the soft underbelly of Nam so Won's heart, making him can't help but need to think about it carefully.
People die for money, birds die for food, and Nam so Yuan has studied hard for decades, maybe he really has a little bit of the meaning of serving the court, but it is more not for his own sake.
Nan Zhuyuan thought more about his worries about the future of the current Ming court, although it was not the main battle front area, and it was far away from the Yellow River front, but the absolute disadvantage of the Ming army on the sea front could not help but make other preparations in Nan Zhuyuan's heart.
During the turbulent period of war, other status and power are fake, what you really need to care about is money and land, if it is unfortunate that Hongmen becomes the ultimate victor, then these officials of the Ming Dynasty can finally gain a foothold in Hongmen, and how few!
Of course, based on the current strength estimate, Nanzhuyuan is still more optimistic about the Ming Dynasty, at least the Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 200 years, and it has a solid mass foundation and strong basic strength, which is not comparable to that of a small island in the South Ocean.
After all his efforts, Han Jin finally got the reply of "Rong Benguan think about it", which was really frustrating, but compared to Nan Suyuan's hesitation before, the heartwarming look in Nan Zhuyuan's eyes this time still made Han Jin feel a little relieved.
After the late autumn of 25 years, the weather is getting colder, and the south of the Yangtze River is cold because there are no mountains to block the sea breeze, compared to the cold in the north, the clammy and cold taste is another cold method that penetrates deep into the bone marrow.
The rise in grain prices in Suzhou has become a foregone conclusion, during which the governor of Suzhou Prefecture, Nanzhuyuan, although there are many grain merchants from all walks of life, and it has indeed brought a lot of price reductions, but for the people who have no economic resources, the reduced grain prices can only be regarded as better than nothing.
In any case, the prefect is also sympathetic to the common people, and every three or four days he will set up a porridge farm in the unemployed workers' area outside the city, so that the workers and displaced people who have nowhere to live can also hang their lives because of this, so that they will not have another riot because of their lives.
Although the gruel in the porridge field is crystal clear and mostly has a musty smell, matching it with the bark of wild vegetables looted outside the city can give you some hope of survival.
"Owner, our food can't last for a few days, why don't you urge them to speed up their progress again?"
Xiang Yuzheng, who had never left Suzhou, temporarily rented a convenient place in Suzhou and opened a grain store, looking at the sparse and not lively shops with joy, listening to the news reported by the people around him.
"This Xiang Fu, why is it so unreliable!"
Xiang Yuzheng was very unhappy, but the white silver in his hand made him extremely happy.
It's really not a loss before I tried my best to override the public opinion, collected these thousands of stone grain from Anhui, and transported it to this Suzhou Mansion to sell, and the income of this trip suddenly made my net profit more than doubled, and this business is not too beautiful!
Xiang Yuzheng looked at the riot at the dock under the ship, and continued stubbornly: "Our grain can only be sold at a price in this place, is it because of this risk that we can't go home?" ”
Although Anhui is not a place rich in grain, under the attraction of interests, Xiang Yuzheng, who is well-informed adjacent to Jiangsu, bought such a boatload of grain in his hometown and prepared to sell it to the people in Suzhou at a high price.
At least, Suzhou

The province is notoriously wealthy, and although the situation is now depressed, the people at the bottom should still have some savings, and the risk is lower than in other places.
But now after arriving in Suzhou Mansion, Xiang Yuzheng found that the situation did not seem to be as easy as he imagined, just now the workers on the dock who are squeezing their scalps to find work make people look goosebumps, and it is even more difficult for Xiang Yuzheng to imagine what the scene in the city will be.
However, if he gave up the food on his ship now, which he had collected after almost all his savings, because of the immediate risk, wouldn't it mean that he would be bankrupt because of it?
As for the transfer to other places, Xiang Yuzheng didn't dare to imagine it, even Suzhou Mansion, which is known as the land of heaven, is already like this, and those places that are not as good as Suzhou Mansion don't know what it will look like.
"Send someone down to find the snake thief, and ask him to pick a dozen strong and honest-looking familiar faces to help us unload the goods!"
Anyway, seeing the scene of the crowd surging under the boat, Xiang Yuzheng was not ready to come forward for the time being, but asked the guy to go down to the dock to find a reliable leader of the rivers and lakes who was familiar with the local environment and helped him do these things.
In the past, there was no need for such trouble, but it was worth the trouble and less risk in special periods.
The guy soon found a reliable snake head at the dock, brought it up to meet with Xiang Yuzheng, and with his help, he selected a dozen right-hand men to start unloading.
At this time, the crowd of people crowded together in the dock area did not disperse because the dust of coolie candidates settled, and they still gathered around the dock area, watching the coolies who were gradually getting busy.
Fortunately, some time ago, Japan and South Korea reported to the prefect of Suzhou that Suzhou City was now in danger, but in some important areas, they sent additional arresters and yacha to forcefully suppress the misdeeds in the city.
That's it, when unloading the goods, Xiang Yuzheng and the guys he recruited didn't dare to take it lightly at all, and they didn't relax until all the grain was transported to the granary he had already set.
In the meantime, taking advantage of the opportunity to unload the goods, Xiang Yuzheng quietly slipped off the boat with a few guys, and after walking around Suzhou City, looking at Xiao Se to Suzhou City, he had a little joy: the more depressed the scene, the more happy it was for speculators like them, which also meant that they could earn more profits.
"Boss, someone just sent a sticker, because you didn't send the small one to your old house."
As soon as he returned to the inn where he was staying, Xiang Chao, a confidant and cronie brought by Yu Zheng from home, whispered in his ear.
"What post?"
Xiang Yuzheng looked up and asked.
"He said that he was the proprietor of the Shen family's grain shop in the city, please ask the proprietor to take a while in Yuchun Tower in the evening."
Tell the truth.
"Oh, got it."
Xiang Yuzheng nodded, indicating that he already understood.
Back in the room of the inn, an invitation written on red paper was placed on the table of the Eight Immortals who entered the door.
Picking up the invitation, Xiang Yuzheng roughly scanned the content of the invitation, roughly asking him to go to Yuchun Tower to talk to Shen Wanliang, the owner of Shen's grain shop, around midnight and around midnight.
