Although Mi Yu knew that Daozhang had come to Jiaozhou, he still watched him get on the ship when he was in Quanzhou. But Mi Yu only pretended that he didn't see anything, and he didn't plan to contact Zhang Xuan's younger brother Zhang Sui with his identity as a fellow villager.

After recognizing the dogs of the two owners, they were either kicked out of the house or served on the table. Since you are in the Han family, you must be an honest and loyal good dog.

Although the expression on Wang Qing's face didn't see any reaction to Mi Yu's statement, his words seemed to have become a little more enthusiastic, and Mi Yu didn't know if it was his own delusion.

"The eleventh son of the Zhang family is the Zhang family who came to open a business bank, and next, the Zhang family will also have to intervene in Jiaozhou."

"I don't know what Zhang Qixiang's business house plans to do in Jiaozhou and what kind of goods it sells?" After Mi Yu saw the Zhang family's eleventh yamen boarding the ship and heading south in Shizhu Port in Quanzhou, he had been speculating when he was on the boat, but the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he didn't even dare to think about it anymore.

"I've heard that they do everything."

"Do everything?!" Mi Yu's face changed. Not the words he was afraid to hear, but the results were pretty much the same. Since everything is done, the first one that will not be let go is the most lucrative incense trade.

"Don't worry!" Wang Qing smiled, "Presumably, Second Brother Mi should also know that the Putian Zhang family, where Zhang Qixianggong is located, is a well-known family in Fujian. There is a prime minister in front, and now Zhang Qixianggong is not far from the prime minister. Famous families are also particular about doing things, and they will not swallow everything in one bite. ”

Entering Jiaozhou City through the side door specially opened for the track, Wang Qing and Mi Yu got off the train together, and several of their companions jumped down from the place where they set their feet outside the car.

When the track line was designed, it was foreshadowed, just passing not far from the gate of the SF Xingjiaozhou branch, as long as you get off the train, walk two steps, and you will arrive at the newly built SF branch of the line.

The area occupied by the SF Xingjiaozhou branch is not large, because the warehouses of the commercial banks are concentrated in the east of the city, and since the buildings that occupy the most land are not here, the ground enclosed by the wall is of course not too large.

Naturally, new buildings are everywhere. The black tiles on the roof and the square bricks on the ground are not like the old houses, with moss and even grass. The beams and columns have just been smeared with a layer of paint, and there is not a trace of mottling, but they have not completely changed color. In the guest room that Wang Qing arranged for Mi Yu's master and servant, the whitewashed powder walls did not look completely dry—after all, it was still the rainy season, and it was the rainy season with the most rain—and the landscape hanging on the wall was also the appearance of fresh ink.

Changing into a suit, with the hot water sent by Wang Qing, Mi Yu became refreshed after some freshening, and the fatigue of the long-distance trip was swept away.

Wang Qing sent someone to invite at this time, look at the time, it is still far from the meal, and the banquet will naturally have to pass for a while. He knew what was going on with Wang Qing, so he followed the maid sent to invite people to the side hall where he was going to meet the guests.

Wang Qing waited outside the hall and changed his clothes. Entering the hall, Wang Qing and Mi Yuqian gave in, divided the guests and hosts, sat opposite each other on two white wooden chairs and rested.

Tea is at hand, and the person to be discussed is sitting opposite. Raised the teacup and took a symbolic sip, and the gossip was over, and it was time to get down to business.

Wang Qing quickly got to the point: "Second Brother Mi, your little brother knows the way, and it is even more clear how profitable Jiaozhi's incense medicine business is. It's just that there aren't many people here, and they don't plan to get involved in it. ”

Mi Yu's heart jumped, SF Feng was hiding from the incense trade, did he not plan to compete with the Zhang family, but Wang Qing's next words made him breathe a sigh of relief, "So the contempt plans to take a stake in the second brother Mi's business." With Second Brother Mi as the main body, the disdainful name is to be an errand runner, accounting for 30% of the shares, just send someone to check the accounts in the line on weekdays, and everything is still up to Second Brother Mi. ”

This is a quid pro quo, and it is so generous that Mi Yu can't imagine it, with his calculations, even if he only accounts for 30%, he will not lose money. And Mi Yu's initial plan was to open six and four, and SF Express to six, and he only accounted for four achievements.

Occupy a business route that is sure to make money without losing money, even if you owe more money, no one is worried that you will not be able to pay it back, even if you want to borrow again, as long as you can pay off the interest, it is very easy.

Since SF Express is so generous, Mi Yu will certainly reciprocate, "Sancheng dry shares, and I will give them immediately." Brother Wang can rest assured that the annual dividends will definitely be delivered on time. ”

"No, not dry stocks. The money that should be paid will not be less. It only took seven years for SF Express to develop into such a scale, and there are semicolons in the south and north of the world, relying on the word Xinyi, and will not be greedy for ill-gotten gains. Wang Qing became very serious.

Mi Yu's heart sank, and he nodded again and again. Thinking about it, after learning about Feng Congyi's temperament in the capital, Mi Yu was ready to focus his next attention on the incense medicine trade in Jiaozhou, if he changed to another family, such as the Zhang family who was ready to 'do everything', he would only choose to try to get a vote, rather than the current long-term business.

The conditions offered by Wang Qing were so generous that Mi Yu had no reason to refuse at all, so he simply nodded and agreed, found a middle-aged person, and gave the contract.

Signing and drawing on the contract and putting an impression on it, Wang Qingwei smiled slightly, and said casually, "If you can't open the turnover in your hands with Second Brother Mi, you can also lend a part of it, according to the interest of the convenience loan,"

"Thank you, Brother Wang, but I still have some spare money in the future."

Mi Yu politely declined this, and he could also borrow usury. If all the capital is borrowed from SF Express, it will become an errand shopkeeper after the worst time, and only if you have real money can you be qualified to do business with SF Express, at least you don't have to worry about being swallowed.

After finalizing the matter of the incense trade, Wang Qing can be regarded as having completed a task.

In SF Express's business, it is based on the production of major workshops, rather than simple transshipment and sales, and makes money by the price difference. However, if there is a suitable opportunity, such as the fragrance trade, it will not be completely missed, and through a lump sum of investment, other commercial houses will be pulled over, relying on shares to share dividends. Among the businessmen who cooperate with SF Express, Mi Yu is not the first, nor is he the last.

The means of doing business in this way is actually not the fastest way to make the most money. Giving up a business that can make a lot of money, and associating with many chambers of commerce, Wang Qing, as the big shopkeeper, can more or less guess that there should be a bigger goal behind it.

But Wang Qing never figured it out, let alone saw through it. But he didn't think much about it, stood up and invited Mi Yu to the banquet together, not only to catch the wind and wash the dust, but also to celebrate the cooperation between the two families.

Han Gang had just arrived in Qinzhou.

In the past six months, he has mainly traveled frequently between Qinzhou, Lianzhou, Jiaozhou, and Yongzhou along the coast, and only returned to Guizhou once in the intermittent period, in order to check the financial situation of the states in the middle of the road, so as to report to the capital.

After reading the account books of Guangxi's military states, Han Gang couldn't help but sigh, Guangxi was really still poor. When he was serving as a county and town official in Kaifeng, the account books he saw, both in terms of expenditures and expenditures, were a cut longer than the numbers in Guangxi's financial accounting books.

Counting the accumulation in the library, except for Guizhou and Yongzhou, most of them are only hundreds of thousands, and in the capital, any county is tens of thousands. This is still the result of a large amount of money and grain, all of which have converged to several major warehouses in Kaifeng City - it is really incomparable.

Qinzhou's account books were placed on Han Gang's desk. After comparing it before and after, he found that there was nothing wrong, so he closed the old book and the new account in his hand. Immediately, a cloud of ash sprayed out, causing Han Gang to choke and cough a few times.

"Dragon Figure." The companion who served beside him asked with concern, and came up to help beat his back.

"It's okay!" Han Gang shook his head and told him to open the window. A fresh breeze blew in, and I felt a lot better.

It's no longer a dragon study, it's a dragon diagram.

Although it is not as glorious as Zhang Dun's leap into the Western Mansion, the title of a Longtu Pavilion bachelor is enough to make nine out of ten civil officials in the court envious and jealous. You must know that even Bao Zheng, who became the deputy envoy of the privy council, is not a bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, and the Bao Longtu that later generations said is the result of false rumors.

Although the Great Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, the reward for military merits was far heavier than other merits. No matter how good the governance is, the performance appraisal of each term can be improved, and the four lessons and twenty-seven are the most readily available, but it is not as good as the great victory of beheading more than 1,000 at a time.

Han Gang handled the battle of destroying the country, as the deputy marshal, and also had the merit of commanding the battle, and the credit he received was not much less than that of the commander of Zhang Tun.

But that's all in the past, and it's more important now to develop production.

Jiaozhou is now known as 72 departments, but in fact there are a total of 74 prefectures. Dozens of tribes, large and small, carved up the plains on both sides of the Fuliang River.

But they were not good at agricultural production, so Han Gang's method was to follow the practice of Xihe Road, select soldiers and civilians who were proficient in agricultural affairs from the army and under his rule, and hire them as agricultural officials to guide the agricultural production of the barbarian army.

If Yiganxi Cave Mountain Man wanted to farm the land by himself, most of them would not try too hard, but now that they have Jiaozhi people doing it for them, of course, they don't mind spending a little more effort to swing the whip when driving.

In order to ensure the fertility of the land, the land of all departments in Jiaozhou is rotated, but the output will not be less - just in the first half of the year, the ministries have planted in a hurry, and the food produced is enough for them to eat for nearly a year - in addition, the large-scale planting of sugarcane is also in the making.

As long as there is another year, Jiaozhou will be able to have a big change, and in three or five years, it will be a rich border state comparable to Xihe Road.

But Han Gang suddenly felt a little melancholy in his heart.

Leaving behind his parents, wife and children, will he have to live another year? has been in southern Xinjiang for two years, and there is only a moment in a hurry, and he is really homesick.
