Chapter 287: Superplacement
If that's really the case...... Fan Yongdou's heart suddenly felt dazed.
He used to be an ambitious person, an ambitious principal who wanted to take the Fan family to the next level. Now even if Zhang Han falls and He Yusheng is finished, does the Fan family firm still have his place?
The answer is of course no, no matter what, the clansmen of the Fan family threw him down, those clansmen have already ascended to the throne, how can they easily spit out the benefits they get? In any case, Fan Yongdou himself has no chance to rise to the throne again.
In this life, the first half of his life is also magnificent, and now he just wants to see the fall of the enemy, if the enemy really falls, what will he live on in the second half of his life?
Fan Yongdou shook his head and drove out this boring thought...... Zhang Han is still living well with Li Zhuang, and the governor can't take him with the card tickets...... Unless Han Qi rolled up his sleeves and worked hard, and directly took the Fubiao camp to suppress Li Zhuang, otherwise Zhang Han's relationship network was really like a spider web, he hid himself in the middle of the web, and there was nothing Han Qi could do about those spider silk entanglements.
"Lao Li." Fan Yongdou sat by the door of a small teahouse, and when Li Mingda came in, he nodded and said hello.
Li Mingda's semicolon shopkeeper was also taken down as soon as possible, and of course the Fan family members who came to power had their own manpower to be placed, and Fan Yongdou's original manpower was taken down, and only irrelevant guys could be spared.
"The proprietor ......" Li Mingda's eyes were a little hot, he sat down, raised the teapot and refilled a pot of water for Fan Yongdou.
"I heard that Da Deheng's semicolon is about to open?"
"That's right." Li Mingda gritted his teeth and said: "As soon as this store opens, He Yusheng will definitely be finished." β
"Not necessarily." Fan Yongdou said: "I walked around a few passes, and saw a lot of convoys going out of the customs. No matter how powerful Han Junmen is, he can't restrain these border troops below, from small soldiers to thousands of generals to garrisons, and generals, all of them have been bought by Zhang Han, Han Junmen is not the imperial court in the end, to put it mildly, even the imperial court can't control it. β
The corruption of the border army is a fact that the government and the opposition are well known, and it is becoming more and more warlordized, the interests of the Jiangmen family are very solid, the family is the private soldier of the general, the court wants to count on these Qiu Ba to fight the war can not be too much, it is now the Apocalypse year, the court's finances have not been bankrupt, so the military towns are generally obedient, after the Liao salary dragged across the imperial court finances, the Qiu Ba is their own feudal town, from the middle of Chongzhen, the emperor's order is only under the governor, not less than the general army.
Han Qi, the governor, can be like a finger to civil officials, but he is not so easy to speak to the martial artists up and down in Datong Town.
Of course, the higher the status of the military attachΓ©, the more polite and respectful he needs to be to Han Qi on the surface, but that's it, the military generals with a large number of family members are very relied on by the imperial court, even if the governor rolls up his sleeves and the general soldier, the impeachment must be approved, but it is nothing more than the general soldier to change places and continue to do the general army, that's all.
"What the proprietor said is that Han Junmen also knows about this layer, and he has been pressing He Yusheng more and more tightly recently." Li Mingda looked left and right, and whispered: "Recently, a sentry from Datong came to the Fu Pacesetter, and surrounded Zhang Han's new residence on the inside and outside of the three floors, saying to the outside that it was to strictly prevent the Zhang Mansion from colluding with the bandits, but in fact, it was to cut off the contact with the outside world of the Zhang Mansion, and by the way, the rice, grain, and firewood were all cut off. Zhang Han is young and filial piety, his wife is worried about her life, how can he come out to show up, at that time, the governor can do whatever he wants, whatever he wants! β
Fan Yongdou was very excited when he heard this, if this was true, then it was really a vicious ploy, and it could be said that he had found the softest part of Zhang Han and stabbed him hard.
Officially, because of the existence of smuggling interests, Han Qi has no way to take the entire Datong and even the bureaucracy in Xuanfu and Shanxi, in private, Zhang Han has financial resources and troops, and is by no means an ordinary businessman who can handle it casually, if it is not for the current trick, even if he is seized and Yusheng, it will not have much effect, and the two sides are actually in a stalemate.
Fan Yongdou was very happy, and a rare smile appeared on his pale and thin face: "This time, I really touched Zhang Han's life!" β
Li Mingda said: "The proprietor, after fighting Zhang Han, can we still make a comeback?" β
Li Daming still has a lot of silver on hand, the Fan family just exempted him from the position of branch shopkeeper, and he couldn't copy his home, he ventured to Yu Shiqian, Fan Yongdou rewarded him with more than 1,000 silver at once, plus the net worth saved by the shopkeeper over the years, both silver and land properties, but what he needs more is status and power.
"We'll talk about it then." Fan Yongdou obviously knew that there was no chance, but there seemed to be a raging fire burning in his heart, as if Zhang Han really stepped over, he would be able to turn over, even if the chance was very slim, but he still couldn't help but think like this.
At this time, there was the sound of firecrackers on the nearby street, and many people ran out to stick their heads out to see that Li Mingda did not go out, he said: "It is Da Deheng's account that has opened." β
"Why don't they work as mules and horses?" In fact, Fan Yongdou had considered opening an account bureau and a mule and horse shop the year before last, and there was no problem with the account bureau, the foundation and reputation and strength of the Fan family were all there, and the Fan family originally had a lot of money and silver numbers, and there was also an account bureau in Beijing, but their account bureau was biased towards the traditional approach...... It is to lend to officials and other businessmen, charging high interest, this is the most traditional account bureau practice, Shanxi businessmen in the financial industry is still very aggressive, Jingshi's silver money bank account bureau, including the ticket number of the Qing season, are Shanxi businessmen to take the lead, but Fan Yongdou knows that such an account bureau is definitely not able to fight and Yusheng, and Yusheng's core profit is the account, but the core competitiveness is the transportation and logistics capacity of Yusheng, as well as the ability to ensure the safety of merchants' goods, materials and property.
If the Fan family wants to do it, they also have to develop horse-drawn carriages, recruit a large number of car owners and porters, and then open a large number of branches, open up routes, and do these things on the premise that they have already fallen first, and it will not be easy to succeed in a few years, and at most they can grab a small part of the market share of Yusheng. Fan Yongdou gave up after thinking about it again and again, and chose to compete with He Yusheng for smuggling, but the result was also a fiasco.
However, Da Deheng, who is behind Han Qi's figure, can actually snatch this business, seize all the branches of Heyusheng, and then snatch the account bureau and the mule and horse dealership to do it, and the carriages and horses can be used by the official seal and Yusheng carriages and horses...... The official word has two mouths, and the sealed things are equivalent to entering the official, and they can be used casually.
The coachman, the porter, can also be recruited from the guys of He Yusheng, the shopkeepers will not betray for a while, ordinary guys want to eat, how long can they remain loyal to the owner?
But if there is no mule and horse business, Fan Yongdou will not be optimistic about Dadeheng's account business.
Of course, Li Mingda didn't know what was going on, Fan Yongdou frowned and said, "Go and see." β
The two of them will pay for tea, step out of the market, due to the existence of the giant and Yusheng, the development of Xinpingbao in recent years is also very rapid, this fort is several miles away, there were originally a large number of garrisons and civilians, the business name is mainly part of the entire North Street and South Street, the whole Xinpingbao is also mainly the most prosperous business name of North Street, the reason is, of course, because the horse market is from the north gate, so the most businesses in North Street, including the Jade Emperor Building and other famous buildings are mostly concentrated in North Street.
South Street is a large number of yamen and mansions, except for these two core streets, the rest of the places are mostly warehouses or common people's residences, of course, there are also military camps, the garrison of Xinpingbao is 1,600 people, the number is quite a lot.
The current Xinping Fort is completely different from the past.
North Street has become a long street that runs through the whole fort, nearly three miles long street has more than 1,000 shops, more than three times more than the original, South Street also has a large number of shops, on the east and west sides, some of the original poor people's houses and real estate were bought, changed into businesses or warehouses, there are also some rich gentry and merchants who took advantage of the chaos to buy a large amount of land to build their own mansions.
In the past, although there are many businesses in Xinpingbao, but there are not many people who really settle down here, when he and Yusheng and the old lady settled here, mainly because of the reason that they fell out with Puzhou's hometown, but now it is different from the past, with the existence of Yusheng, more and more large businesses choose to settle here, of course, there are more and more supporting things, and the quality is getting better and better.
Fan Yongdou walked here, feeling more and more sullen in his heart.
He felt that his realm was indeed far behind Zhang Han, at least he didn't have any confidence at all, and he could change a place so much with influence radiation.
Fan Yongdou was a little puzzled as to why this was happening. is also a big businessman, and the Fan family can't do what Zhang Han can do.
"The proprietor has arrived."
Li Mingda reminded him, and Fan Yongdou, who was in a trance, woke up.
Da Deheng is a business name led by Han Qi, and the words Da Deheng Account Bureau are clearly written on the signboard.
At this point, Fan Yongdou faintly understood in his heart, it seems that his tens of thousands of silver have been wronged.
Han Qi's account bureau was the idea of replacing He Yusheng from the beginning!
The key point is that Han Qi saw the profits of the account business, this thing is not like the money village, and has not yet attracted the attention of the pro-vassal nobles and eunuchs, there are many businesses in Taiyuan and Datong, there is no shortage of large merchants with hundreds of thousands of assets, and the pro-vassal people put the money in print, open the bank, set up tax cards, and have not paid attention to the pure business operation for the time being, Han Qi has seen the financial resources and the potential of the account bureau with Yusheng, in his opinion, Zhang Han does not have that background, but he Han Qi is different, the account bureau is opened, of course, the credit has nothing to say, who dares to doubt the strength of the governor? There will not be any blind to run to extortion, the related costs have also been saved a lot, the safety on the road can be with the help of the Fubiao battalion, even the dart division does not have to raise a few, this money is very easy to earn, I heard that Zhang Han uses the account bureau to earn hundreds of thousands of taels a year, opened countless branches, Han Qi made Liu De find out that it was true after the inspection, this is the most important reason why Han Qi desperately targeted Zhang Han.
If it was just to retaliate for the events of the year, the governor quietly went directly to Li Zhuang, surrounded by the Fubiao camp, and took down Zhang Han, or locked or killed, if Zhang Han had not been detected by the intelligence department in advance, it would be impossible to imagine that he would be directly killed on the spot.
It is too simple for the governor to kill a nine-rank miscellaneous official.
In addition, the account bureau also has the function of absorbing silver, and it can also lend money, Han Qi attaches great importance to this business, as for the mule and horse shop, in his eyes, it is still a cheap business for car owners and foot traders, and he can't make a lot of money, and he has to work hard to feed a large number of porters and mules and horses, which is not cost-effective.
