Chapter 346: Garrison
Zhang Han couldn't help laughing and said: "The father-in-law has worked hard in Lizhuang so far, and the daily income is at the level of the official, and he can get three hundred to four hundred taels of silver every year, which is not small for ordinary people, but it is still less for the father-in-law......
Zhang Han saw that Chang Jin was about to resign, and he hurriedly said: "That's how I do things, the big contribution is to take more, and the small contribution is to take less, it has always been fair." Waterwheels, clocks, telescopes, these things, ordinary craftsmen can't make them, how many rewards do you see Wang Debang get at one time? In the future, you will have a commission for every time you sell a table clock, according to the patent share, I estimate that there will be at least more than 5,000 a year, this time there are two major achievements, and according to the custom, you will be rewarded with 2,000 silver, and I will ask the people of the chamberlain to send it to you...... How is it? β
Chang Jin is not hypocritical, thought about it, and said: "I shouldn't push it, keep this silver, and buy Zhuangzi for Chang Wei to marry his daughter-in-law in the future." β
Hearing this, Chang Dushi couldn't help but say: "It's hard for you to remember Chang Wei, what I wanted, I didn't think about him." β
Chang Jin glanced at her and said, "One yard is one yard, you don't have to worry about these things in the future, and you will be blind." β
Chang Dushi didn't dare to refute, his eyebrows were lowered.
It happened that Chang Ning came over, and when he saw his mother like this, he opened his good-looking little mouth wide for a while, and he couldn't speak.
Zhang Han couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister Ning is also here, just in time for dinner...... In fact, Chang Wei's money must still fall on me, and in the future, He Yusheng will let go of the share capital and grant shares according to the size of the merit, not the size of the official of the imperial court. β
If Li Shenming was there, he must have stared at Zhang Han and shouted that there was a ghost.
This opening up of share capital is also a move that Zhang Han has thought of a long time ago, and it is not a whim. First, Zhang Han does not plan to continue to annex acres of land, although he can easily get more than 100,000 acres of land as a commander, and it is enough to allocate it to the entire group now, but Zhang Han has to take into account that the group will grow in the future, and it is not a good thing to divide the land early, and everyone has acres of land, they will lose their enterprising spirit, and homesteaders are the group of people who like stability the most and do not like change.
Second, it is necessary to counter or weaken the influence of the imperial court. In the future, he and Yusheng open share capital dividends, according to Zhang Han's estimates, this year's conservative income with Yusheng is more than one million taels, he will take out a considerable part of the dividends to everyone, this dividend is different from the Chamber of Commerce, the shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce have their own part, and the new dividends are part of Zhang Han's net income...... Of course, Zhang Han is not a burner with a lot of money, but has other considerations.
In the future, if the imperial court adopts the method of divide and rule to divide Zhang Han's strength, or even deliberately cause the internal division of the entire group, this is something to be considered in advance.
Zhang Han of the Chamber of Commerce is not afraid, the Ming Court of interest distribution is not playable, but the main thing is to guard against the possible changes in the officer group, fame and wealth are moving, Zhang Han will never believe that his subordinates' loyalty to himself is greater than the pursuit of his own wealth, even if these people do not think about themselves, they must also think about their children and grandchildren.
A group may be relatively good during the upward period, but if there is no good mechanism to maintain it over time, it will also mutate and eventually collapse.
After the division of shares, it is equivalent to the corporatization of the army, the whole group is a super-large trust-like large company, everyone has the same interests, and what the imperial court can promise is nothing more than generations of wealth and wealth, but Zhang Han has already written a check in advance and exchanged it into reality, in comparison, Zhang Han firmly believes that the imperial court will not come up with too many more practical things.
The land must be firmly controlled, so that the subordinates do not form a new generalist group, wealth and power must be distributed in advance, so that the subordinates and themselves are firmly bound, if it is done well, the officials of the court will be nothing.
After all, the glory brought by the official is only temporary, and the more practical benefits are important.
"Why are you bothered?" Chang Jinyou's eyes widened and said, "Didn't you take out your own money and divide it?" β
"If it weren't for everyone to join me, or even to fight for their lives, how could I be where I am today?" Zhang Han's smile was full of sincerity, and he said slowly: "I do give everyone a salary, but compared to human life, money is nothing...... Besides, as long as there are people, you can make more money. β
Chang Jinyou looked at Zhang Han, the smoke pot slowly went out, and he said in a deep voice: "I didn't misread you, you are a person with hills and valleys in your heart, in the future, you will not only achieve this achievement in front of you, you can not be arrogant or impatient, and continue to maintain your heart, this is good, really good!" β
β¦β¦
After Zheng Guochang learned the news that Zheng Yuhe led his troops to attack the trading house, he was also stunned and felt very speechless.
Sooner or later, Zhenyu and Tiancheng will have to be palmed by a commander, and the two guards have long shared an Acropolis office, and the Zhenyu guards are under the fence, and Zhang Han, the commander of the guards, will not be comfortable, so he has to take out one, of course, to take out Commander Zheng, but this guy will bump into himself.
The governor personally impeached, and it was the governor who had just taken office, and the power was great, the cabinet and the military department immediately agreed, less than ten days apart, the will was to go to the Tiancheng Acropolis, and Commander Zheng was directly dismissed, and the new commander of the Zhenwei guard, Zhang Han, was also in charge of the Tiancheng Weiyin.
When the news came, the entire Tianchengwei was in a sensation.
Commander Zheng was very embarrassed by this...... Not only mental embarrassment, but also financial embarrassment.
His command is obtained by bribery, the military department has gone to the relationship, the Zheng family is a second-rate to third-rate general, can go on the relationship, but it costs a lot of silver, this three-grade command is bought with thousands of silver, if it is an ordinary commander, it does not have to be so costly, but Tiancheng and Zhenyu Liangwei are real soil guards, that is, there is a large amount of land similar to the general command of the pro-people officials of the state and county, in addition to a large number of acres of land in the territory, of course, there are many commercial houses, you can also set up a tax card, in this side and wait for the emperor, Wei was under less control than the state and county officials, and the military attachΓ© could not be shameless at all, so Zheng Commander came with debts, planning to work hard for a few years to pay off the debts, and then make a lot of money before leaving.
The general guard commander can also be hereditary, but it is not necessarily the palm print, the palm print of Tiancheng and Zhenyu and the acropolis guard, this official position is impossible to be hereditary.
When Commander Zheng was embarrassed, Zhang Han also rushed to the Tiancheng Acropolis.
Zhang Han has been sitting in Xinpingbao for a while, he wants to straighten out the affairs of the commercial banks in various places, not only focus on the military and politics, the affairs of the commercial banks are also very complicated, close to May, this year's grain collection is also very important, the chambers of commerce around the country are desperately collecting grain, and Yusheng's position in Shanxi is close to monopoly, only in some extremely remote mountainous areas, transportation is really inconvenient, can only be collected by local small grain merchants, some of these grains flow to Henan, some are to Shaanxi, some are digested in Shanxi, as long as they can be collected and can transport the grain, I'm afraid that seventy percent of them have flowed in the direction of Tianchengwei.
In addition to the business bank and the grain business, Zhang Han has also been paying attention to the changes in the account bureau recently.
With Fan Yongdou's cross-stage and Han Qi's bad luck, Zhang Han has become a legend in Datong and even Shanxi, especially now that Zhang Han has also changed from patrol inspection to guard commander, his status and strength are completely different from before, and people's hearts have also changed.
Changning's 60,000 taels of silver seems to be a good start, from mid-April to late April, from the pass to Ningwu, then to Datong, Zhenqiangbao, then to Yanghe Acropolis, then to Xinpingbao, Zhangjiakou, the whole from the west to the east has a line, each account branch on this line has received almost a lot of different deposits, the shortest deposit certificate is three months, the longest is half a year, the maximum is more than 5,000 taels of silver, and the minimum is a few hundred taels.
These silver can be deposited and exchanged, now is the stage when the commercial banks around the country begin to stock up, to the autumn will reach a peak, and then after the winter is the time for shipments and payments, Zhang Han estimates that the speed and amount of money in the account will increase after the autumn, at that time the account bureau to attract reserves may reach an astronomical amount.
Of course, this is only a possibility, and no one knows how.
When the deposit in the account office goes from small to large and reaches a startling number, Zhang Han can do too much.
When this city, which was five miles long and three hundred steps long and three feet high, appeared in front of him, Zhang Han's feeling was completely different from before. He has been to this acropolis many times, from the east gate of the acropolis, along a small official road straight to the east, and then take a few forks of the road is Li Zhuang, this road he has walked several times, outside the Acropolis about three miles away from the dense villages, are along the road gathered together villages, the people in these villages are all people, there are also quite a lot of people in the real Tuwei station, whether it is Yunnan or Liaodong, or Shanxi Xingdu Division, the situation is almost the same everywhere, except for the military households and Ding Yu in the military registration, There are also quite a few people mixed in.
A little further on are some tea sheds and breakfast shops and other small shops, built along the road, some just build a shed, some are two or three thatched huts, the density of the houses begins to increase, the road surface also becomes more potholes, because there are many people walking, and no one repairs, the days are long, there are high and low in the middle of the road, the road surface is pressed very solid, and the carriage and horse pass by are also high and low, very inconvenient.
Some chai men carry firewood to the morning market, and the earlier vegetable farmers have already come out, and they have walked a long way in a row, they put the wheelbarrow on the side of the road, sit in the breakfast shop outside the city, eat cakes and drink tea, these breakfasts cost about three or four yuan, these vegetable farmers are more to eat their own multigrain cakes, only buy one dollar of tea with cakes. Only those with a little bulging purse will buy a pot of tea, accompanied by oil cakes and peanuts, slowly kill time, and continue walking when they have rested enough.
Taoist priests on the traveling side, monks on the order list, nuns and Taoist aunts walking with their heads bowed, and merchants passing by...... The lines are colorful, converging into a real picture of the world.
An inexplicable feeling arose in Zhang Han's heart...... All these things in front of me, all these people, have nothing to do with themselves, and from now on, one of my own thoughts, these people's lives will be turned upside down...... That's what power tastes like.
