Wan Chenggui can be regarded as a human spirit, and he has noticed the expressions of all the officials.

Su Su Fang is very famous, Su Su is really delicious, but without Su Tiancheng's help, there is not so much publicity to build momentum, it is impossible to achieve the current situation, during this period, Wan Chenggui also encountered a very real problem, that is, to expand the workshop, the workshop needs a lot of manpower, but the government has strict restrictions, all the workshops that recruit more than 20 people must go to the government for the record, if the government does not allow it, such a workshop is not allowed to exist.

The reason is very simple, many people have gone to the workshops in the county seat, no one has farmed, what to do with the fields, where does the food come from, besides, they have all gone to the county seat, the villages and towns have no strong labor, and Li Zheng and Jiashou cannot manage it.

The main reason is probably the understanding of the above problems.

Wanli years, Suzhou had a civil uprising, at that time because of the high development of the textile industry, in the early Ming Dynasty, the textile industry was mostly governmental, after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the government-run textile industry gradually declined, replaced by the rapid growth of the private machine households, the textile industry is the place where the machine workers gathered, in order to avoid some taboos, the development situation at that time, called the machine household contribution, the machine worker contribution. Suzhou became a famous and prosperous place in the Ming Dynasty.

Later, the officials who collected taxes combined with the local ruffians and brutally exploited the machine owners and machine workers, which led to the machine owners and machine workers to rebel, which formed a lot of influence, and the officials in the court thought that this was because the workshop was too big, concentrated too many people, and it was easy to cause trouble, and the scale of the workshop should be limited.

This understanding has always been continued.

In the area of Nanzhili, there are already many workshops. But these workshops, if they want to make money and expand their scale, they have to pay bribes to local officials to try to hire more people, and they have to be afraid. For fear that one day I will offend the government and be held responsible, that is, the chicken will fly and the egg will be beaten.

Su Sufang's fame has gone out, and more and more people are buying Su Su, if you can't expand the scale of production, you can only watch the silver leave, so Wan Chenggui gritted his teeth and found Su Tiancheng directly. There is not only him who has this problem, but many shops have encountered such a problem.

To Wan Chenggui's surprise, Su Tiancheng supported the expansion of their workshop, and his attitude was categorical.

Su Tiancheng also gave the green light, saying that it was a shop workshop, if it could take care of some poor households in Jiangning County. Properly consider the salary, and the county government will give more care.

Su Tiancheng's boldness. Also contrary to Wan Chenggui's expectations, the county government issued a document for many businessmen, which means that workshops with less than 100 people, the county government does not interfere, but in terms of taxation. There must be a corresponding improvement, as for the workshop with more than 100 people, it must be filed with the county government, and the county government has sent someone to see it before it can do things.

Wan Chenggui's workshop inside. The guy has long exceeded a hundred people, and he originally thought that when he reached such a scale, he must have encountered some meanness, and he couldn't think of anything.

As a result, Wan Chenggui's opinion of Su Tiancheng completely changed, and he felt that Su Tiancheng was in favor of commerce and trade, not purely thinking of silver.

This time the adjustment of Jiangning County officials, Wan Chenggui also pinched a sweat, and finally came out of the good situation, but don't be a son of heaven and a courtier, the policy has changed, and the most disadvantaged is the businessman.

For the sake of his own interests, all the officials who went to Jiangning County, Wan Chenggui carefully analyzed.

Therefore, he paid special attention to the expressions of Yan Zizhang and Lan Qiaozheng.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I came to Su Sufang today, and I felt that it was shining, and I specially prepared some gifts, and I was originally a person from the Jiangning County Chamber of Commerce, and I have been taken care of by the county government, and I will work hard in the future to make more contributions to the local development."

As soon as the words fell, the guy came in, holding a wooden box in his hand, as for what was in the wooden box, no one would open it to see, this was a gift from Wan Chenggui.

Yan Zizhang felt taken aback and looked at Zheng Keyou, Liu Zhongji, Su Pingyang and others.

He paid special attention to see how Su Pingyang handled it, Su Pingyang's identity was different, and to a certain extent, he could completely represent Su Tiancheng.

Su Pingyang accepted the gift with a smile on his face.

Yan Zizhang was relieved and accepted it.

Wan Chenggui's arrangement is very meticulous, so many people, each holding a wooden box in their hands, it must be inappropriate, so there are special guys who will be sent to the county office.

When he said goodbye, Liu Zhongji specifically talked about the Lantern Festival, Wan Chenggui patted his chest and said, everything is fine, this event organized by the county government, many businessmen were very happy, and they all felt that the time was shorter, and they were willing to take out more silver and try to organize a larger scale.

On the way back, Yan Zizhang couldn't help it.

"Lord Liu, Su Dianshi, although Wan Chenggui is the president of the Jiangning County Chamber of Commerce, it is a little unreasonable to give gifts in front of us."

Liu Zhongji looked at Su Pingyang and said with a smile.

"Lord Yan, don't worry, inside the wooden box, that is, some Su Su, Lord Yan has just come to Jiangning County, and other businessmen know about it, I'm afraid they will also send some things, but there will never be gold and silver or anything like that, they are all their own products, the county government has special regulations in this regard, which is also specially proposed by Lord Su, the county government must protect the interests of businessmen, the officials of the county government, if they extort businessmen, will not only be fired, but also severely punished, as for sending some of their own products, such a thing, the county government still allows."

"Oh, I see, can it be said that the businessmen of Jiangning County can avoid other extortion?"

Yan Zizhang and Zheng Keyou looked at Lan Qiaozheng at the same time, I don't know why Lan Qiaozheng would ask such a question, wouldn't it clearly point to Ying Tianfu and even the Sixth Department of Nanjing.

Yoo Joong Ki still has a smile on his face.

"There will be no blackmail, Lord Su has specially arranged it, no matter what kind of blackmail, the businessman can refuse, and it must be reported to the Chamber of Commerce, and the Chamber of Commerce will report to the county government, if it is outside Jiangning County, Lord Su will be responsible for coordinating it personally."

In just half a day, Yan Zizhang felt that he had gained a lot.

First of all, today's itinerary, there is no gong to open the way, Liu Zhongji and Su Pingyang, slightly obedient, without the slightest unnaturalness, this shows that they have been accustomed to this kind of practice, it can be seen that in Jiangning County, the officials of the county government do not have many privileges, and they are not so majestic when they go out, no wonder Su Tiancheng said that he asked the officials to go down and take a look.

The second is the relationship between the county government and the businessman in Jiangning County, which is an interdependent relationship, the county government has tried to increase the income of the businessman, on the other hand, the businessman pays more silver taels to the county government, which is a mutually beneficial practice, everyone has benefited, so the development continues, the county government naturally has silver.

It is the treatment of the county officials again, such a high treatment, not to mention Fuzhou County, the capital is difficult to do, he is the county of Jiangning County, and he gets the silver in his hand every year, which is no more than five thousand taels, and the lowest government officials also have five hundred taels of silver every year, of course, as the magistrate, Su Tiancheng is also about five thousand taels of silver every year, which may be a bit of a loss, after all, the regular silver that the magistrate can get is far more than this amount, but the overall treatment is up, so that the officials can be strictly required to do things seriously, If there is any act of corruption and perversion of the law, the county government can severely punish it.

The last is Su Tiancheng's thoughts, there are some things contained in it, Yan Zizhang is a little uncomfortable, and he needs time to learn, so he said that this is a good thing for businessmen, Shinong businessmen, and businessmen's social status is the lowest, such courtesy, isn't it against the rules of the imperial court, but the real changes in Jiangning County show that what Su Tiancheng did is correct, doesn't this mean that some rules should be changed.

He suddenly had an impulse, thinking of meeting Su Tiancheng, discussing some things, and talking about some opinions, he came to Jiangning County and became the county governor, in fact, he was ready to take over as the magistrate, if he couldn't quickly figure out some rules in Jiangning County, maybe it would really destroy the good situation in Jiangning County.

The next day is the celebration of the Lantern Festival in Jiangning County, in fact, the celebration has already begun, the bustling crowd in Jiangning County, the inns everywhere are full, and the business is booming in the restaurant, all of which shows that the goal that Su Tiancheng just pursued at the beginning has basically been achieved.

In the afternoon, Yan Zizhang had to go to the city to have a look.

That's where the focus is on.

Yan Zizhang was shocked by the rules of the city's division, the income of the city's division was already a large part of Jiangning County's source of income, and he hadn't understood it yet, the city's divisions were basically half-dead, except for relying on the court's money, there was almost no income, and the pitiful taxes collected could not support people at all.

Could it be that the city division set up in Jiangning County is very different?

Hearing is false, seeing is believing, and after a morning, he has seen too many things, these things, speaking of which, are somewhat novel, and it can also be said that they are not quite in line with the wishes of the imperial court.

No wonder before I came to Jiangning County, an adult from the imperial court said that Jiangning County is a typical rush for quick success and quick profit, violating the rules of the ancestors.

What doesn't make sense is that these changes in Jiangning County have produced a huge effect, the people here are rich, and the government has silver. (To be continued.) )
