Wei Guangwei had no intention of spending this wedding night, at this time he was already full of white frost, kneeling under the moonlight, looking up at the Forbidden City Drum Tower looming in the distance. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

And next to him stood a person, it was Wu Jin, the head of the East Factory, Wu Jin came to convey Zhu Youxiao's will.

As the first assistant of the cabinet, even if Zhu Youxiao is the king of a country, he cannot be removed at will, but the so-called rules have flexibility.

The emperor does not directly dismiss you, but if you ask for a letter, Zhu Youxiao can directly approve it.

What Wu Jin has to do now is to force Wei Guangwei to write a Zhishi excerpt.

But Wei Guangwei is a little reluctant to get the hard-won position of first assistant, once a person has power, he will be obsessed with power, and even would rather give up his life to seize power and protect the position.

Wei Guangwei is such a person, what he did was to keep his position as the first assistant, but he didn't expect that he would be self-defeating.

Looking at the cup of poisoned wine in Wu Jin's hand, he knew that he had no way to live, and His Majesty hated the person who used and tried to control him the most.

Wei Guangwei, who had always been worried that Qian Qianyi, who was in the prime of his life, had taken the position of his first assistant, when he learned that His Majesty was coming to congratulate him, he thought of such a plan.

It turned out that before Wei Guangwei arranged for Zhu Youxiao to enter his daughter's attic, he lit a strange fragrance from the Western Regions that could produce an exhilarating effect when mixed with a certain kind of tea, and as soon as His Majesty came in and smelled this fragrance and drank tea, this reaction would occur.

And Wei Guangwei has always known that Wang Chengen is the one who tests the poison, but Wang Chengen is a eunuch, and he will not react when he drinks tea and smells the incense.

Therefore, he had already expected that His Majesty would fall into his trap.

At that time, if His Majesty takes possession of his daughter, even if His Majesty knows that he did it, His Majesty's character will definitely admit the fact that this raw rice is cooked into mature rice, even if there is a moment of unhappiness, Wei Guangwei also believes that his daughter can make His Majesty gradually forget this pimple.

What's more, he also lost his daughter.

However, in the end, His Majesty did not fall into his trap, but he could have died a good death, but he had to face His Majesty's heavy punishment.

"Your Majesty, Weichen just wants to be a Chinese abbot!"

Wei Guangwei couldn't help crying, his head hit the ground heavily, and then he wrote a plea for Zhishi while holding back tears.

Wei Guangwei's excerpt was quickly approved, and a large number of Dongchang fans also surrounded the Wei Mansion at the same time, but by the time they entered, Wei Guangwei and his eldest son had already taken poison and died.

Most of Wei Guangwei's property was confiscated, and only a small part of the ancestral property used for sacrifice was left behind for his surviving relatives to live.

Wei Guangwei's Xinna's Mrs. Ru was very unlucky, she thought that she could marry into the Shoufu Mansion and be a master from now on, but she didn't expect to become a common person again in a blink of an eye, and she had to be controlled by an old lady.

No one expected that a few days ago, Wei Ge Lao, who was well-known in the capital because of a trivial matter of taking a concubine, would be ruined overnight.

Even on the night that he committed suicide by taking poison, the major newspapers and periodicals revealed that he had a bad intention, and although it was a suicide, he must be investigated for his crimes, and he should be deprived of all official bodies in front of him, as well as the official identities of his parents, children and grandchildren.

……

The business of the Royal Industrial Company store, which Gong Yonggu was directly in charge of, was still not very good, and few were willing to buy these "luxury goods".

Gong Yonggu also entered the palace to ask Zhu Youqi to allow him to reduce the price, and Gong Yonggu believed that these more well-made silver mirrors and glass could sell better than those merchants as long as the price was reduced by half.

But Zhu Youxiao, who insisted on going to the high-end market and was unwilling to seize the low-end market with other businessmen, still did not agree, which made Gong Yong, who had already invested tens of thousands of taels of silver, a little calm.

But after four or five months, a certain governor who entered Beijing bought ten pieces here at one time, and all of a sudden, Gong Yonggu made a profit of thousands of taels.

Immediately afterwards, what kind of people from the Shangshu family and the Shilang family came to buy, in short, after almost the entire middle and upper families in the capital and even some ordinary people had silver mirrors, some noble mansions began to feel that they were no longer enough to show their status with ordinary silver mirrors.

The silver mirrors and glass sold by the Royal Industries Company are exquisitely and meticulously designed, and they are expensive or royal monopoly always feel that they are linked to the royal family, so they gradually think that buying the products of the royal monopoly is a symbol of status, and it doesn't matter if they are expensive, for them, the most bad thing is money.

All of a sudden, many big families in the capital, and even some big ones who had already bought silver mirrors and glass products from other merchants, came to the royal store to buy them.

In this way, it didn't take long for the goods in the store to be sold out, and the total turnover was as high as 200,000 taels, and the profit reached more than 100,000 taels.

Gong Yonggu believed in His Majesty's strategy at this time, so he listened to His Majesty's arrangement without question, only selling a hundred pieces of each product, and never adding more after a hundred pieces were sold.

However, it is acceptable to customize, but the price is higher, but in doing so, there are many dignitaries and eunuchs to customize.

From low-end wholesale to high-end retail, the profits of the Royal Industries Company have directly increased several times, and Zhu Youxiao now relies on this piece to earn more than one million taels.

This is much faster than when he used to set up banknotes along the way and send eunuchs to various mines to extract mining taxes, after all, before the formal commercial tax was put forward and under strong military pressure, Zhu Youxiao did not dare to go too far at this time.

The economic benefits brought by the research and development results of the glass subject have also stimulated other scientific researchers, and Chen Le, an ordinary craftsman who could only rely on repairing glazed roof tiles for large families, could one day get tens of thousands of taels of silver in a few months.

"Have you heard, Chen Shi's family is really sent now, and the silver carried to his house is a basket after a basket, carried for three days and three nights, it is said that his son also married the daughter of Liu Ge's hometown, and now he has climbed a high branch."

"Are you telling the truth?"

"That's still fake, this newspaper is clear, in my opinion, what kind of talent do we still take the exam, and we can't pass a few exams in Shuntianfu a year, so it's better to go to the technical school of the Ministry of Industry, maybe you can get one or two new gadgets, and get a review from the Hanlin Academy."

Chen Shi's story of getting rich was completely uproared as soon as it was published and publicized in the newspapers, especially in this late Ming society where the pursuit of fame and fortune was more prosperous and the commodity economy was more developed.

There are more people who come to listen to Zhu Youxiao's courses, and more people apply for projects, and everyone hopes to be rich and prosperous like Chen Letou.

Gong Yonggu naturally got a lot of benefits, and at the same time, it also stimulated more active businessmen to want to cooperate with the royal family, and Zhu Youjiao was also interested in looking for more agents of his own.

As long as these people are tied to the chain of their own economic interests, they will have more say in their own financial reform.
