"Yes, we will not back down!" The students behind Zhang Pu chimed in. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Wang Qitai's face turned pale, and he pointed at them and shouted: "You can't be forgiven for forming a party and forming a society to threaten the imperial court." Come on, take down this leading Zhang Pu for me! "He completely lost his patience and decided to use force to quickly quell the chaos in front of him.
"Take down Zhang Pu!" The soaps beside Wang Qitai shouted loudly and rushed towards Zhang Pu and the others. Even these scholars dared to make noise in front of their group of officials, which made these officials who were ordinary and arrogant feel embarrassed.
Although the scholars were based on their enthusiasm, they were scholars after all, how could they be the opponents of this group of officials, several people were injured by them in an instant, but they still surrounded Zhang Pu and other backbones in the middle, and refused to back down.
"The official is beating people, the official is beating people...... countless people shouted, filled with righteous indignation and anger.
"There is no way in the court, don't be afraid, fight with these eagles and dogs!" Someone in the group of students shouted, and immediately sprinkled a handful of oil on the flame that was igniting, which made the crowd even more excited, and it was difficult to contain it.
Under the leadership of the sons of Yingsha, these students became angry, and finally rushed to the soap subordinates with long sticks in their hands and began to fight back.
The scene instantly became chaotic and noisy.
Due to the large number of students and the people of the Jinling Society, the soap subordinates of the Yamen of the Inspectorate couldn't resist it, and they couldn't stop shrinking and retreating, and they were gradually surrounded by the crowd.
Wang Qitai's official hat was knocked down by someone at this time, although he was extremely angry in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, he could only watch his subordinates being repelled by these chaotic people and scholars, but he kept shouting: "You guys...... You are rebelling...... Rebel ......"
But his voice was completely indifferent in front of the crowd, and it couldn't have any effect at all, seeing that these elite soaps in the yamen were about to be defeated by these market people.
At this moment, suddenly the sound of earth-shattering slogans sounded at the corner of the street, followed by the sound of neat footsteps stepping on the ground Huo Huo came into his ears, Wang Qitai was shocked, but after looking up, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and shouted: "Don't retreat, it's Lord Mao who brings the officers and soldiers, and it is Lord Mao who brings the officers and soldiers!" ”
Many soap subordinates couldn't help but look at the sound, only to see that at the end of the long street, a team of officers and soldiers with bright armor and swords and bows were running towards here, and the number of people was no longer under a thousand. Seeing the arrival of the officers and soldiers, the soap officers were in high spirits, and the water and fire sticks in their hands couldn't help but tighten their grip, and they hit the crowd besieging them.
The people of the Jinling Society also saw the officers and soldiers coming at this time, and they were all panicked, not knowing what to do. But I heard Zhong Yansong shouting: "What about the officers and soldiers, there is no way to eunuch the party, and everyone will be punished!" Then he shouted at Du Ying and Ma Jie, "You lead people to block the officers and soldiers, I don't believe that these soldiers really dare to fight against the common people." ”
Du Ying hesitated for a moment and said, "Young master, the officers and soldiers are powerful, it seems that they are going to move seriously, in my opinion, I might as well retreat, right?" ”
Zhong Yansong said angrily: "Retreat? How to return? As soon as we retreat, Heshan Academy will not be able to keep it, as soon as Heshan Academy falls, it will be our Jinling Society's turn next, this time we must not back down, even if it is the price of blood, we must let them know our will to resist death! ”
Du Ying gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just listen to the young master." Brothers, follow me! With a shout, the people with the Jinling Society greeted the approaching group of officers and soldiers.
Mao Yilu, the governor of Jiangsu, couldn't imagine that the situation in front of him would become like this, these academies and clubs really dared to gather people to fight against the current imperial court, and couldn't help but be full of panic, looking at Sun Yunhe on the side and saying, "Lord Sun, how do you think this is good?" ”
Sun Yunhe sneered and said, "The rebellious party and thieves obstruct the law enforcement of the imperial court, and they should be punished according to the crime." Mao Zhongcheng, don't forget, Gonggong Liu is still waiting for your good news in the yamen! ”
Even though it was early spring, Mao Yilu's forehead was still oozing with bean sweat grains, and after hesitating for a while, he stomped his feet and ordered: "Give it to me, disperse all these chaotic people and thieves, but if you don't accept it, you will be killed!" After this order was given, the chest was pounding wildly, and the contradictions between the eunuch party and the Donglin party were finally transferred to his own head under the manipulation of Liu Dexi, although he was also a member of the eunuch party, but after this order, he could no longer stay out of the matter, I am afraid that Jiangnan Shilin will regard him as the first evil from now on, and he will be verbally and verbally insulted in every way.
But what can be done about this, who told him to speculate and fall to the eunuch party and become Wei Zhongxian's godson. Now that the arrow is on the line, I have no choice but to act as this bird.
……
Suzhou City Xiangmen Outside the Market, a silk shop backyard.
Sun Yueling summoned the small and medium-sized traders in Suzhou to gather together and discuss a matter. The reason why he summoned all small and medium-sized traders, but not big businessmen, was because the constraints of this matter itself were those big traders, and he had no choice but to summon these small and medium-sized traders to come to the discussion.
"Master Sun, what you just said is that we can sell our goods to countries in the Southeast Ocean in a centralized manner, is this possible?" The person who spoke was Yan Peiwei, the owner of this silk shop, and the eldest son of the Yan family in Suzhou City.
Sun Yueling smiled lightly when he heard this, and said, "How?" Boss Yan didn't believe what I said? ”
Yan Peiwei smiled and said: "It's not that I don't believe in the master, but this matter is too important, if the Wei family and the Li family know about it, I'm afraid they will be embarrassed in every way and suppressed everywhere, if this matter is not successful, we will be difficult to operate......
How could Sun Yueling not understand what he meant. Originally, this time these traders were convened to discuss, which was intended to be led by Fenghua Society, and many merchants formed a trading company to jointly deal with this big businessman in the south of the Yangtze River. Just now he had already told these people what he thought in his heart, so that they would no longer be attached to those Wei and Li Shang clans from now on, but should unite and concentrate the goods in one place and traffic them to the Southeast Ocean, so he glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "You have been cooperating with our Fenghua Society for a long time, don't you believe in our financial and material resources?" As long as you are responsible for the sale of goods, the rest of the things will be handed over to our Fenghua Society, to ensure that the goods can reach the Southeast Ocean, as long as you live a year or two, you will be able to earn double the profits, no longer subject to the Wei and Li Shang clans! ”
Another tea merchant, Yang Nianru, was full of excitement and said: "If it is really as Lord Sun said, our goods can be spared by Wei and Li and directly transported to the Southeast Ocean, and the profit is really not a little bit, I am afraid that it will not take a year or two, only half a year, we will be rich." ”
Sun Yueling nodded and said, "What Boss Yang said is right, that's exactly the case." ”
Everyone thought deeply, thinking about Sun Yueling's words just now. The business run by these small and medium-sized traders all relied on the two big merchants Wei and Li, but all the raw silk, tea and other things purchased from the silk households, tea farmers and other common people were directly sold to these two big merchants. These two great merchants did not have to do it themselves, but they could obtain from them the final right to sell these goods, either to the north or to the south seas, and the gains were enormous. These small and medium-sized businessmen have worked hard for a year, but they can only earn some small price differences, of course, they have complaints.
But they had nothing to do, because the big merchants monopolized the trade routes in Suzhou and even the whole of Jiangnan, and all the small merchants and peddlers had to rely on them to survive.
Now Sun Yueling pointed out a new way for them, they can bypass these big merchants and sell goods directly to the countries of the Southeast Ocean, which makes their eyes shine, but at the same time they are worried, in case the road pointed out by Sun Yueling is a dead end, they don't talk about opening the door to do business in the future, but they are afraid that it will be a problem to gain a foothold in Suzhou City.
"Does Lord Sun really know those merchants in Nanyang? Can we be trafficked out of our goods through them? The person who spoke had a thin face and bright eyes, and it was none other than a tooth boy named Shen Yang in this bazaar.
Sun Yueling smiled and said: "You should also know that the contemptible people have inspected Fujian, and even went to Taiwan as a representative of the government, whether it is Ao Fuyong in Fujian or Zheng Zhilong in Taiwan, they all have a good relationship with the contemptible people, and I believe that as long as the contemptible words are brought, they will be able to escort and facilitate the commercial and social security we have formed." After finishing speaking, he glanced at everyone again and said, "I hereby promise that we will do everything possible to protect all merchants who join the trading company, and in addition to the income from the sale of goods, we can also share dividends from the trading company every year." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a lot of discussion in the room, and many people discussed it privately. If it is really as Sun Yueling said, what is in front of them is an unprecedented opportunity, which may make them change from small merchants and hawkers in the local area to big businessmen who can influence the market, but this matter is not without risks, first, the door of Fenghua Society seems to be very profitable, but after all, it is hanging overseas, if it is not stable enough, it is also troublesome; Second, the Wei and Li Shang clans would not easily let the plan of the trading company succeed, and they would definitely put up resistance, and if the combined trading company could not withstand the pressure, no matter how good the plan was, it would be stillborn.
For a while, the vendors were chattering, and it was difficult to reach a unified opinion.
Sun Yueling saw that the vendors here still had concerns, and said again: "If you are not at ease, then how about this, the first shipment of your merchants will be recorded in the account of my Fenghua Society, if the shipment goes well, all the profits will be returned to you; If the shipment does not go well, then Fenghua Society bears all the losses. How is it? Are you satisfied? ”
Hearing him say this, many people were moved, and Yan Peiyu, the second son of the Yan family, couldn't help but light up his eyes, and said, "Is what Lord Sun said true?" ”
"No lie!" Sun Yueling smiled angrily.
The two brothers of the Yan family discussed for a while, and said to Sun Yueling: "In this way, I, the Yan family, are willing to join the United Trading Company." "Since Fenghua Society swore that it would make enough guarantees for their first attempt, such superior conditions, they naturally had no reason to refuse.
The Yan family took the lead, so the other traders expressed their willingness to join the Lianshe Trading Company.
Sun Yueling saw that everyone had been moved, and all of them were in high spirits, and pressed his hand weakly, signaling everyone to calm down, and said, "Since you are willing to join the United Trading Company, I will tell you frankly. If the United Trading Company can bring wealth to all of you, then, as a member of the trading company, at all times, you must act in accordance with the articles of association of the trading company, and you must not suppress and exclude other partners in the trading company, and you must not divulge trade secrets to other merchants outside the trading company, let alone do anything unfavorable to our Daming. ”
Yang Nianru laughed and said, "Master Sun Hui is too worried, even if you don't say it, we understand these things." If there is a lot of profit, who will have trouble with their own people? ”
Sun Yueling looked solemn and said to him: "Boss Yang, if the trading company is operating normally, we will abide by the regulations not only as I said above, but also many other rules and regulations, such as being able to donate generously and selflessly to provide food, clothing, food and rice for the people when the country is in danger, and I hope everyone can follow it when the time comes." ”
Yang Nianru said: "Isn't it just donating money and materials, as long as you make money, these things are nothing, and we will naturally follow them." ”
Other traders also echoed their words, saying that as long as they earned money, these were naturally their duty, and they were willing to obey Sun Yueling's dispatch.
Seeing that everyone had no objections, Sun Yueling said with a smile: "So, then thank you for your trust in me." I will do my best to develop and grow our joint trading company and live up to the expectations of all of you who are here for our Fenghua Society. ”
Next, Sun Yueling discussed with them some details of the formation of the trading company, and briefly explained to them the rules and regulations after the formation of the trading company, and finally said: "After the establishment of the trading company, Fenghua Society will inform you of the type and time of the first cross-sea trafficking, and when the time comes, we will send your goods to Nanyang in a bank, and if this trip goes well, we will deduct the principal and return the profits to you." Then he clapped his hands, invited a woman out of the back hall, pointed at her, and said, "From now on, she will contact you on behalf of our Fenghua Society, and she will discuss with you all matters concerning the operation of the trading company and the delivery of goods." ”
Yan Peiwei looked at it and said, "Isn't this the Chu boss of the Shu Jin Shop, why, you also joined the Fenghua Club?" Then he suddenly realized, looked at her and Sun Yueling and said with a smile, "Oh, I understand, the rumors in the rivers and lakes are really true, talented and beautiful, but I really envy Yan!" ”
Chu Xinying smiled and said: "Boss Yan said that I am joking, how can I be as good as you have a wide range of friends and a crown covering the city, you are a celebrity in Suzhou City, it is an honor for a little woman to work with you!" ”
Yan Peiwei laughed and said: "Miss Chu is really good at talking, it seems that Master Sun did not choose the wrong person, and you should be the acting agent of this joint trading company, you should have a superb vision and accuracy!" ”
This sentence is a pun, even Sun Yueling is a little embarrassed, Gu Zuo said to him, and said to everyone: "This joint trading company was established for the first time, it is inevitable that there will be some twists and turns, and I hope that you can cooperate sincerely and work together to spread the reputation of our Su businessmen all over the world." ”
It is no secret that Sun Yueling is a native of Nanjing, and after hearing about it, everyone also felt the passion to create a career, and they all expressed their words that they would unite sincerely and develop the trading company.
After the discussion, when everyone was about to leave, they saw the door open, Dongfang Shengping flashed in, and said to Sun Yueling: "Master, something happened to Heshan Academy." ”
Sun Yueling's heart sank, and he said, "What happened?" ”
"The students of Heshan Academy united to resist the seizure of the academy, and they were suppressed by Mao Yilu's troops." Dongfang Shengping's face was solemn, and he said, "Chen Zilong, Zhang Pu and several other leading students were arrested, and even Zhong Yansong, the young master of the Jinling Society, was arrested, and many people died, and the injured were countless. ”
"So serious?" Sun Yueling stood up suddenly, unexpectedly that the situation had developed to such a point.
