Merchants seek profit, whether it is money or status, these are what businessmen want. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the past, although there were many officials who were blessed, they were purely a trading relationship with each other, and the low social status of the merchants made them always at a disadvantage in this transaction, which was also a hurdle that the merchants could not pass.

The reason why Li Hongfei was able to successfully subdue this group of businessmen and use the military force to suppress them made them realize that the current situation was one thing.

On the other hand, Li Hongfei did not use the power of officials to force them to comply, but in line with the principle of considering businessmen everywhere and planning interests for businessmen, he let this group of people gradually take off their guard.

Although the suppression and pacification are all from Li Hongfei's hands, there is no contradiction between them, the suppression is to let the other party see the current trend, and the pacification is to draw a big pie full of temptation for these businessmen, who cannot refuse at all, because just one businessman can become an official, it is already difficult for all businessmen to resist.

Li Hongfei accompanied Zhou Furen to have a brief lunch in the prefect's yamen, and by the way, he also told about some matters related to the establishment of a factory.

After all, Li Hongfei is a modern person, although he is not as good as Zhou Furen in terms of wealth, but as a gold medal salesman, he can easily come up with a set of business ideas, which is enough for Zhou Furen to benefit a lot.

After lunch, in order to show his sincerity, Li Hongfei personally sent Zhou Furen out of the yamen.

"Dad, are you alright?"

"Master, has this government embarrassed you?"

“..........”

As soon as I got out of the prefect's yamen, I saw a group of people surrounding me, it turned out that these people were all relatives of Zhou Furen, and the rest of the bosses had been gone for a long time, only Zhou Furen had not come out, and it was natural for these people to be worried.

"Don't gather around the yamen, it's affecting Lord Li's work, let's go back and talk about it." Zhou Furen motioned for his family to leave first.

Because outside the yamen, there were still many local officials standing, and Zhou Furen didn't see any of these people in the morning, and now they are all gathered here, presumably they were also troubled by Li Hongfei.

In the past, he could enjoy the good shows of merchants in brothels, gambling houses, and restaurants, but now he is not willing to join in the fun of the internal affairs of this official mansion.

After Zhou Furen and his entourage left, a group of officials present hurriedly surrounded them, one of whom was about forty years old and had a fat body, and said to Li Hongfei apologetically: "Xiaguan Suzhou Mansion sentenced Lu Youcai, I have seen my lord, yesterday the general army of Jiangsu and Zhejiang visited Suzhou, and Xiaguan thought that my lord came with him, so he couldn't stay in the yamen to meet my lord, and I hope to atone for my sins." ”

This excuse is simply impeccable, firstly, the two of them did come from Jinling City, and they both arrived on the same day, the officials thought that the two were traveling together, which was easy to explain, and in fact, before entering the city, Li Hongfei and Qi Hongying were indeed traveling all the way.

Second, Qi Hongying, as the general soldier of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, is a feudal official of the imperial court, and the official residence is secondary, just according to the size of the official position, these people must give priority to welcoming Qi Hongying.

It's just that it's said so, but that's not how things go, there are so many big and small officials in Suzhou, even if the Holy Lord comes in person, these officials have to leave one or two to preside over the daily affairs in the yamen, and it is impossible to go to meet them collectively.

If it was before, Lu Youcai would not apologize for this incident at all, after all, their original intention was to make Li Hongfei deflated.

But now it's different, behind this Li Hongfei, not only has the support of the general soldiers of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but also has the Shang Fang sword given by today's son, such a big man, Lu Youcai can't afford to offend.

"Why do you explain so much? Let me ask you, why was there no one on duty in the yamen yesterday? Li Hongfei said impatiently.

If other officials listened to Lu Youcai's words, they would definitely be able to understand the meaning of softness, and if they didn't want to completely tear their faces between their colleagues, they would definitely take advantage of this matter to make a big deal small.

However, Li Hongfei is not an ordinary official, and he is too lazy to consider the twists and turns of officialdom, and his main tasks in Suzhou are two, one is to develop the economy, and the other is to organize and train the new army.

Li Hongfei has already started to do the first of these two things, and the effect is remarkable, even without the support of these officials, he can have fun, so as the boss of these people, he has no need to compromise.

In a word, since these subordinates are not convinced by Li Hongfei, there is no need for Li Hongfei to play with them.

"It's ....... It was the negligence of the lower officials. Lu Youcai was a little overwhelmed by this prefect who played cards with uneasy routines.

"This is just one time, not the next one. In addition, this official has set up a Ministry of Commerce by the order of the Holy Lord, and in the future, the finances, cashiers, and taxes in the yamen will be managed by the Ministry of Commerce. Li Hongfei gave an order.

It is not only the deputy position of the state and county officials, but also plays the dual supervisory role of the Han Dynasty's supervising imperial history (supervising the county) and supervising the post (supervising the county).

Now Li Hongfei wants to take advantage of the other party's dereliction of duty, leaving Lu Youcai alone, and also taking away the financial power, making Lu Youcai become "Lu Wucai".

In addition, Li Hongfei's Shang Fang Sword has the privilege of being arbitrary, and he does not need to be approved by a general judge to issue any order, which is also where he dares to set aside the confidence of a group of officials.

Originally, Lu Youcai wanted to set up Li Hongfei and prevent the other party from interfering in the affairs of the yamen, but now it is good, Li Hongfei only took away the financial power, and handed over the rest of the things to Lu Youcai to be responsible, which is not much different from the previous idea, and even Lu Youcai's power is greater than before.

But after the power became greater, Lu Youcai couldn't be happy, after all, Li Hongfei said that he would not interfere with Lu Youcai, but without financial power, no matter what Lu Youcai did, he had to be subject to Li Hongfei.

And he always felt that although the other party was young, the city government was extremely deep, and he suddenly threw so much power to himself, Lu Youcai didn't know about it for a while, whether it was good or bad.

I have to say that people who are officials always like to figure out the meaning of their bosses, but once they find that they can't figure it out, the whole person will become empty-hearted.

And Li Hongfei didn't bother to explain so much to these officials, he didn't have time to chat with these people, because the 800 miles sent yesterday happened to be back at this time.

"Holy Word!"

Although the person who came was just a messenger soldier, all the officials, including Li Hongfei, knelt down to listen to the order.

"Dream back to Aiqing, I already know your plan, the holy decree will arrive in three days, during this period, I have ordered Qi Hongying, the general soldier of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, to help you, if anyone obstructs it, you can act cheaply." The messenger soldier repeated Zhu Youzhen's original words.

Due to the time problem and the fact that there are many reforms, it is necessary to convince the ministers of the DPRK and China, so the official decree has not yet been drawn up, but Zhu Youzhen is worried that Li Hongfei will encounter obstacles here, so he sent an expedited 800 li in advance to send an edict to Li Hongfei to reassure him.

With the Holy Lord's edict, Lu Youcai, who was still thinking nonsense before, didn't dare to say anything more at this time, in short, all the officials below confessed, Li Hongfei said that what to do, they could only do what they wanted.
