Chapter 920: Inadequate

After being glanced at a few times by a group of senior attachΓ©s, Wang Faxiang hurriedly quickened his pace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He was going to Mingyufang, which was mixed and densely populated, and Wang Faxiang was obviously much more relaxed when he entered the flow of people.

At this time, there was a man dressed in a short shirt beside him, and he made a very subtle gesture to Wang Faxiang when he passed by.

Wang Faxiang nodded lightly...... Today he is not idle to panic through half of the capital, this is a tracking and anti-tracking training, just now the intelligence officer has said that the intelligence team responsible for stalking and following people did not notice anything abnormal, that is to say, Wang Faxiang was not targeted.

"It's a little boring." Wang Faxiang looked around and suddenly felt lonely.

Li Guobin and Liu Ji have their own things, one of them is responsible for the relationship with dignitaries and nobles in the capital, and the other is responsible for the operation of the store, both of them have added branch directors, and Yusheng is considered to be the top in the business system, and then there are senior officials in the government affairs system, with the qualifications of the two are still a little worse, of course, Wang Faxiang is a colleague and friend, and I feel that the ability of these two people is enough.

And the Military Intelligence Department has been a bit boring this year.

After eradicating Houjin's multiple secret pile intelligence points in the capital, the Military Intelligence Division has no decent opponents in the Beijing Division, Jinyiwei and Dongchang don't know about the existence of the Military Intelligence Division at all, and the two departments have been infiltrated like a sieve, which is really full of holes, and it is not an opponent of the same magnitude at all.

In recent months, the Military Intelligence Department in Beijing has not only been able to collect local military, political, and economic intelligence, but has also been able to touch a few melons in the high-level movements and struggles, and the current situation is far from the embarrassing situation when they could only listen to people's gossip in teahouses and taverns to collect intelligence.

Tonight's action is just a training, there is nothing in the past, there is no wave, Wang Faxiang can't tell what he feels like in his heart, a little boring, but more rejoicing.

There was still some danger when the Jurchen stronghold was uprooted that day, Li Yongfang sent a lot of good hands to assassinate him, but Wang Faxiang led people to kill him, but after that time, there was no movement on Li Yongfang's side, and later Wang Faxiang learned that the original Fushun forehead was attached to the Thirteen Mountains and ate the hanging, lost a lot of authority, and lost a lot of manpower, where is there any spirit to come again, and the failure was to send a lot of elite soldiers and strong generals, and the result was served by someone even the pot, Li Yongfang smeared the intelligence of the capital, I thought it was the assistance of the powerful spy departments of the Ming Dynasty such as Jinyiwei, but when I thought of this, I would not send someone here.

The current crocodiles such as the capital and Yusheng's military intelligence department have become the most powerful force in the dark of the family, and Wang Faxiang, as the leader of this force, of course, does not dare to relax at all.

Boss, an intelligence officer walked sideways and said softly: "Liu Guojin sent someone to leave a message, saying that there is something important to see you." ”

"Oh, I'll take a trip."

Liu Guojin is also an important ally of Yusheng in the capital, from the original dependency relationship to the alliance relationship, it took more than two years, before that, that is, Li Guobin was qualified to go to Liu's mansion, and later Liu Guojin and others realized that Wang Faxiang's status was not under Li Guobin, and even exceeded, there were some secret things recently, and they were already dealing directly with Wang Faxiang.

"I've seen Mr. Liu."

Wang Faxiang did not delay, Liu Guojin lived in Yongfang, the pattern of the capital city is rich in the east and rich in the west, poor in the south and cheap in the north, the north city is mostly dominated by merchants, camel dealers and small business houses and people's mansions, the south city is simply an outer city, the residential pattern is very chaotic, very few officials are willing to live in the south city, most of the officials will live in the east city, even if they live in a very small yard, they would rather squeeze it, after all, it is convenient to go to the court.

Liu Guojin's mansion is not comparable to ordinary poor Beijing officials, the courtyard of three into three sets, the blue brick courtyard wall, the terrazzo floor of a water, the house is repaired every few years, it looks magnificent, more than a dozen bird cages are placed under the cloister in front of the courtyard, the flowers in the courtyard bloom from the flowers, the birds and insects chirp in the Wang Faxiang into the study, Liu Guojin is studying the bronze antiques just obtained under the lamp, and his demeanor is very leisurely and comfortable.

"Guorui is here." Liu Guojin called out Wang Faxiang's words, pointed to the chair, and said, "Sit down and talk." ”

"Just stand down and watch the old man study the antiques." Wang Faxiang said with a very casual attitude: "I'm afraid this set will cost a lot of silver." ”

"Five hundred taels." Liu Guojin was said to the itch, slapped up, and said with a smile: "I was killed by the shopkeeper of the Liuli Factory, no way, who called the old man to like this bronze artifact the most, this group is the utensils used by the ancients to eat, and there are ancient characters engraved on it, but it is a pity that the old man is only shallow and can't crack it, it's a pity." ”

Wang Faxiang made a look of admiration, a set of bronze costs the price of 100 ploughing cattle, in addition to the class of the magnates, I am afraid that it will scare many people to death, since Longwan, foreign trade is prevalent, a large influx of silver, with the prosperity of the people, the income of the elite class is also greatly increased, the most significant is that the development of the antique industry is far beyond the day before.

"I called Guorui to come, I have something to tell you." Liu Guojin finally put down the things at hand, if he used to talk while playing with objects, but now it is different from the past, and Yusheng's latent strength under the water is obviously stronger than a day, the Jingshi branch almost every year has to smash tens of thousands of taels to buy low-level officials and a large number of officials, at first Liu Guojin didn't think so, tens of thousands of officials in the Beijing Division, and the only ones who can really be used when they are the masters of the house are only dozens of court officials and a few eunuchs and nobles, what is the use of those low-level officials and small officials? In the past two years, I have watched coldly, and I gradually feel that it is wonderful, although there are many powerful people in the capital, the people who do things below are mainly small officials and small officials, and these people are well encircled, and it is smooth sailing to do things, which is far better than simply using power to oppress people.

Just like the Chongwenmen Tax Customs, which is a place that ordinary people can't handle, it was still taken down by Li Guobin and Wang Faxiang and others, Liu Guojin is a person with a changed mind, in recent years, the court has been more afraid of He Yusheng, and the more he and Wang Faxiang meet in private, the more times he and Wang Faxiang meet in private, just like after the rise of the Jurchens in Liaodong, Liu Guojin once privately sent domestic slaves to Liaodong to "observe" is the same intention.

Liu Guojin said: "Is there something wrong with you and Yusheng's silver?" ”

Wang Faxiang was taken aback, in recent months, the silver has been very tight, and the silver vaults around the country are using each other's support to deal with the merchants who come to pick up the silver, which is also the real reason why He Yusheng let the wind go out and asked the merchants to say hello three to five days in advance with cumbersome procedures!

And Yusheng's local account bureaus, now there are about 800,000 or so deposits, this number has increased and decreased every month, sometimes as much as 1.5 million, sometimes as little as 560,000, the military department has a deficit of more than 100,000 yuan per month, this silver is distributed in the accounts of various places, in order to withdraw the merchant's deposit silver to solve the problem of insufficient financial use of Heyusheng, but the silver that generally exists in the account bureau rarely exceeds three months, under normal circumstances, most of them are saved for more than ten days to a month, and a few people save for one or two months. Only a very small number of merchants keep their silver for more than three months.

Time is insufficient, the deficit is very large, in order to solve the trouble, you can only draw silver from the account bureaus around the country, and then make up for each other between the account bureaus, in case the merchant is not enough to deposit silver when the exchange, fortunately, the logistics of Yusheng is developed against the sky, within three or five days, the accounts in the north can communicate with each other, this practice is barely the use of Yusheng in the past few months to support.

From autumn to the beginning of the year, this period of time must be a very tense stage with Yusheng, and the degree of use is tight, so you can only move left and right.

This was originally the highest level of secret, and only a very small number of high-level people in He Yusheng knew the real inside story, and the ordinary middle and lower levels only understood the superficial reasons, thinking that it was the cumbersome accounting of the military department's finances, which increased the time for withdrawing money.

Wang Faxiang laughed and said: "Yusheng and I don't dare to say that we are rich and rival the country, but our Lord Zhang still has a net worth of several million, and the silver stored in the account bureau is really an innocuous amount, how can it be said that the silver is insufficient?" ”

Liu Guojin first smiled meaningfully, and then said: "The proprietor of your business bank, Zhang Dongzhu, is indeed wealthy, otherwise he would not have achieved such an achievement now. However, this has nothing to do with your financial scarcity. No matter how big the family business is, there are times when it is left and right...... Don't worry, the old man doesn't want to check the accounts with you, just talk to you, the day before yesterday I got together with a few colleagues, Zuo Cangyu mentioned that his disciple Shi Xianzhi has an uncle, it seems to be called Shi Congbin, who is the big customer of you and Yusheng firm, there are a lot of deposits in your business, this person chatted with Shi Xianzhi, mentioned the delay in your account bureau, Wang Wenyan listened to it with great interest, I received news today, Wang Wenyan invited Shi's uncles and nephews to his apartment to interview. ”

Wang Faxiang's face froze, knowing that something was wrong.

Liu Guojin said again: "Wang Wenyan is a villain, but I still can't leave him in the Donglin lineage, this person is fickle, and this person is the leader of this political dispute." This person is very smart, but there is a bad thing that is narrow-minded, your proprietor has offended him, because this person has always been very hostile to He Yusheng, this political dispute, and Yusheng is of course also regarded as a eunuch in the same vein, but the status is more transcendent...... To tell the truth, even if you are worried that you will be forced to rebel, but if you can find a reason to limit and promote the development of Yusheng in the mainland, and if you are famous, I think Wang Wenyan will not give up this opportunity, and most of the people in the court will be happy to see it. ”

When Liu Guojin said this, he picked up the tea bowl on his chest and said in a deep voice: "In a word, the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." If there is no opportunity, no one will think of taking the initiative to provoke you and Yusheng, but if there is a chance, once someone takes the lead, there will be a lot of people who will follow and bite, after all, and Yusheng's family business is still very eye-catching. ”

Wang Faxiang smiled when he heard this, and said: "If you think it's okay, don't stretch out your hand, you will be caught if you stretch out your hand." ”

Liu Guojin said: "Guorui is talking a lot, right? ”

"The old man doesn't know." Wang Faxiang smiled and said: "Lin Dan Khan has moved west, and the outpost battle has begun. Once the Chahar Department is destroyed, from west to east, most of the Mongolian territory is actually controlled by He Yusheng, and thousands of miles away are owned by my family, this strength is enough to stand on its own, if it is really powerful to make up its mind on our heads, it is really our own death, and we can't complain about others. ”
