Chapter 462: Worry
Chapter 462: Disturbance
Wan Qiyang mainly uses the relationship of Viscount Neil to directly conduct maritime trade with the Zhengyang Chamber of Commerce on shipping, so that Wan Qiyang gets double profits! And for their future development is more smooth. Since this is a temporary decision to cooperate, the contract will be considered effective after the Jacob family has signed several contracts and then takes back the Oliver family and stamps the family seal and the patriarch's signature.
"Neil Jacob is very pleased to work with you and looks forward to the success of our cooperation."
"It is a great pleasure to work with Mr. Viscount, I admire his vision, and I am sure that it will not be long before Mr. Viscount will be proud of your decisive decision. Happy working together! After the two exchanged courtesies, Wan Qiyang left the Viscount's Mansion, and the rest was left to their respective butlers.
Wan Qianyang's cooperation with the Jacob family this time is equivalent to taking the other party's things to produce the products they need, and then sharing the profits, it is simply a direct income without paying a penny, of course, generally speaking, the Jacob family benefits, because if Wan Qiyang does this alone, no other family will benefit, which also shows that Viscount Neil's courage is still very great. Of course, this is not the case, how can a situation of one dominance occur? Therefore, the equal sharing of interests is also the purpose of the Chamber of Commerce, so in order not to be suppressed by other families, the wisest way is to find a noble family to cooperate, so since Viscount Neil has this intention, then why not Wan Qiyang?
On August 22, the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Xizong Zhu Youxiao died of illness. On the 24th, he followed the order of the emperor, issued an edict to the world, and changed the next year to the first year of Chongzhen. It's for Sizong. Zhu Youzhen was seventeen years old at the time. In September, he posthumously called his biological mother, Concubine Liu, as the queen mother. Concubine Zhou is the queen.
Money and food are sealed with seals
On the sixth day of the ninth month of the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), Guo Yunhou, the head of the household, played Chen: The national seal color is blue and easy to thicken, please ask for money and grain to be sealed, and Sizong will allow it.
On November 26, the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), the governor of the Kuraba Household Department Shangshu Su Maoxiang checked the food and salary of the Beijing army: the Beijing army puts more than 300,000 stones every year, and now the second warehouse rice in Jingtong is only 269,573 stones. There were only more than 17,760 Jinyi guards in Wanli, and they were added to the rebellion, and now there are more than 36,360 people, and there are 270,000 more than 270,000 rice. Wensi Yuan craftsman, the official register of 753 people, now added to 3,288 people, more than 30,000 stones. Please check, Si Zong agreed.
When Wan Qiyang was still at sea, Zhu Youxiao had died of illness, and his younger brother Zhu Youzhen was the emperor, Zhu Youzhen, born on December 24 in the thirty-eighth year of Wanli (1610), the fifth son of Guangzong, the younger brother of Xizong, the king of letters in August of the second year of the Apocalypse (1622), and lived in the letter residence in the sixth year of the Apocalypse. Shen Lang Yingmin, when Wei Zhongxian was in charge of government, he was good at self-defeat, and Wei Zhongxian was intimidating, so he didn't dare to take care of his life. On August 22, the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Xizong Zhu Youxiao died of illness. On the 24th, he obeyed the order of the emperor, issued an edict to the world, and changed the next year to the first year of Chongzhen, which was for Sizong. Zhu Youzhen was seventeen years old at the time. In September, his biological mother, Concubine Liu, was the queen mother, and Concubine Zhou was the queen.
On the way home, Wan Qianyang remembered that it had been more than half a year since he left Daming, and it had now entered the end of December, and it would be Christmas in the West in another week, which was like the Chinese New Year in a country where Christianity was prevalent, and it was a national celebration, but this was not as significant to Wan Qianyang as what was going to happen two days before Christmas to arouse his concern.
On December 23, the seventh year of the Apocalypse (1627), Wei Zhongxian was destined to rebel against the party. When the members of the Wailang Wang Shou performed and so on, Wei Zhongxian rebelled against the party, Wenchen Cui Chengxiu, Tian Ji (the military department of Shangshu), Wu Chunfu (the Ministry of Industry), Li Kuilong (deputy capital Yushi), Ni Wenhuan (Taichang Siqing) known as the "Five Tigers"; Wuchen Tian Ergeng, Xu Xianchun, Sun Yunhe (Dongchang Criminal Officer), Yang Huan (Zhenfu Division, Criminal Officer), Cui Yingyuan (Jinyi Wei Command) are known as "Five Biao". Emperor Chongzhen ordered the "Five Tigers" and "Five Biao" to discuss the crime in the law department. Criminal Ministry Discussion: In addition to Cui Chengxiu's death, Wu Chunfu and Ni Wenhuan should cut their ranks and take their lives; Tian Ji, Li Kuilong; Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun should be arrested and sentenced in June of the first year of Chongzhen; Yang Huan, Sun Yunhe, Cui Yingyuan and others cut it. Emperor Chongzhen thought that he had not fulfilled his guilt and ordered him to discuss again. As for the determination: Li Kuilong, Wu Chunfu, Ni Wenhuan, Tian Ji and others pursued and dispatched; Tian Ergeng and Xu Xianchun talk about death; Cui Yingyuan, Sun Yunhe, and Yang Huan. At that time, the scholar Han (Huo Guang) and others did not want to delve into the grievances, so the crimes planned by everyone were relatively light. In March of the second year of Chongzhen (1629), the reverse case was redetermined, and the "Five Tigers" and "Five Biao" were all executed. In the winter of the same year, Emperor Chongzhen issued an edict that "the Wei Zhongxian Rebellion Shrine built in the world will be demolished and sold at a price." ”
Before Wan Qiyang left Daming, he basically gave tips and response instructions on the major events that were about to happen every month, and who should know what news was issued by Qiao Zhi and Song Changqing one by one, and the most shocking thing was that Lord Cheng, the governor of Sichuan, and Lord Xu, the governor of Caoyun, and Lord Zhang, who was the Yin of Shuntian Mansion at the time, because they had been prompted by Wan Qianyang before, what a big deal this is, and these major events can be clearly predicted, what does this mean? Therefore, the occurrence of these events has made Wan Qiyang rise to the point of no repetition in everyone's hearts.
At this time, Qiao Zhi was the most nervous, and he opened a bag according to Wan Qiyang's instructions two months in advance, which clearly stated the time when Wei Zhongxian was executed. And according to Qiao Zhi's internal analysis, Chongzhen has rejected Wei Zhongxian's request to return to his hometown twice. In fact, before Zhu Youxiao died, he said to his brother Zhu Youjian that Wei Zhongxian was worth reusing, but such words were even faster, and Chongzhen executed this person called the nine-thousand-year-old eunuch! While stabilizing Wei Zhongxian, Chongzhen was secretly searching for evidence of his crimes and arranging to annihilate his comrades in one fell swoop.
Wan Qiyang gave Qiao Zhi a time, and another task was to try to grab Wei Zhongxian's property as much as possible, as much as he could, anyway, try not to have casualties.
Wan Qianyang has prepared a total of about two and a half years of tips, so Wan Qianyang should also try to shorten his time in the UK, because of his appearance, history has been slightly deviated, and he is most worried about the current situation in Sichuan. Therefore, whether we can receive a letter from Daming in the next few months shows whether there will be any changes in the situation in Sichuan. The main thing is that now Andy has decided not to work in the same company anymore, and he can only see if there is any news for Captain Richard to bring back to the UK. But the time for Richard to return to England is also uncertain, so no matter what, he has to carry out his plan as scheduled, but it is still satisfying that he has been implementing the plan in advance.
After returning to his castle, he also found that everyone began to prepare for Christmas, and there was a festive atmosphere everywhere, and at this time, Wan Qiyang looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and the cold wind blowing also indicated that it was snowing again. Because Wan Qiyang stayed in Beijing in the first few years of his later life, snow in winter is also common, and if it has been in Sichuan, it is rare to see the time of snow in winter. After the winter, Wan Qiyang watched everyone in his manor doing what they were doing, and there was still no news from Henry's side, after all, the worst thing now is communication, in Wan Qiyang's memory, the telegraph would not be invented until at least the beginning of the nineteenth century, it was really fatal, if there was a telegraph, it would also improve a lot of efficiency.
Wan Qiyang calculated the time, it will be at least half a month before there will be news from Henry's side, so now there is only to wait, but now what can make Wan Qiyang breathe a sigh of relief is that with Andy's help, then many things should be completed more quickly.
