Chapter Seventy-Three: Gossip is forbidden

"What kind of workshop do you really want to build in Yong'an Lane? How much silver would it cost?" Zhu Shou asked Li Ling puzzled.

Although Qian Zhuang has made some money these days, he can't withstand such a toss, if he encounters a run like last time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with.

Although Zhu Shou is a child, the benefits that Dachang Qianzhuang can bring to him are too great, so he can't afford not to pay attention to it.

When he heard that Li Ling was going to build a glass workshop, his eyes lit up.

This thing was a rarity in the Ming Dynasty, and if Li Ling could make it, he would definitely be able to sell it for a good price.

In fact, the workshop built by Li Ling was extremely simple, just a main house and a large yard, and its cost was very low.

Before the workshop was built, he ran into a little trouble.

Someone came from the old house, saying that the silk they spun was unsalable on a large scale, and all of it was in their own hands.

"What the hell is going on? Jiangnan is the main production area of silk, and many northern traders come to buy silk, so it should not be difficult to sell it, why is this the result? ”。 He also did market research when choosing this project, and the textile industry is definitely profitable.

Although there are many people in the nursery, there must be a lot of silk they make, but this little thing is insignificant to the whole market.

"Young master, you don't know, no one wants the silk we spun, even if our quality is better than others, and the price is one percent lower, no one cares!" The young man who came to hold the letter was named Li Yang, and he was a down-to-earth and hard-working person.

Uncle Zhong saw that his character was good, so he made him the person in charge, who knew that he had just woken the first batch of cloth and was in trouble.

Silk can't be sold, a lot of money is occupied, naturally there is no way to reproduce, Uncle Zhong really has no way, so Li Yang came over to ask for advice.

Someone is targeting themselves, how can a huge market be turbulent because of the addition of a little silk?

Those who can manipulate the market at will must not be small people, what is the purpose of their doing this!

"Shopkeeper Li, shopkeeper Wang, you two are the largest silk middlemen in Yingtianfu, many northerners buy silk from you, do me a favor, the number of goods in the Li family's old house is not much, how about it is convenient to help sell it?"

Piaoxiangju is one of the best and last restaurants in the county, and Li Ling hosted a banquet here for the two silk merchants, hoping that they could help deal with the goods.

The two are also local squires, and they have investments in the Dachang, so they can be regarded as sitting on the agreed boat with Li Ling.

The most important thing is that both of them were controlled by Sun Shanren before, if it weren't for Li Ling saving the two, I'm afraid they haven't regained their freedom now!

The two owe Li Ling a great favor. If you know some inside information, you will definitely confide in it!

"Li Jieyuan, don't embarrass us, although we really know a little inside information, but we can't say it, otherwise we will be unlucky!" Shopkeeper Li was the first to speak, he was a little embarrassed, but he had to say.

Someone had already greeted them, and they were not allowed to contact Li Ling too much in private. This person is something that the two shopkeepers can't afford to mess with anyway.

"Xie Yuangong rest assured, since they have made so much effort to find trouble for you, they must have some schemes, you just need to wait for the result!" Shopkeeper Wang finally made up his mind to give Li Ling a hint.

Those who can enter the field of vision of that group of people are not ordinary people.

The icing on the cake is more promising than sending charcoal in the snow, or burning a cold stove.

"Li Jieyuan doesn't need to worry, it may be an opportunity for these people to take a fancy to it!" Shopkeeper Li also compromised and continued to reveal a little information to Li Ling.

"Who the hell is the divine eyeing me!". The words of the two shopkeepers not only failed to solve the mystery in his heart, but only confused him even more.

He asked people to send three thousand taels of silver to the old mansion for emergency.

He couldn't take the initiative to attack, he had to wait for someone else's next move, and he saw the move.

The officials who came to conduct the evaluation finally arrived.

Sun Shanren's matter is always a stain/point, and Ma County is difficult to resign, and his official position is pushed to the end, and he has become a common man.

He discussed with his son and decided to go to the capital to join his daughter.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are opportunities. When the wind has passed, spend some more money to make a point, and it is unknown how to enter the office/way.

Ma Xiancheng left the county seat gloomily, and there were not even a few people to see him off.

Everyone's eyes were attracted to one thing.

When Ma Xiancheng was unlucky, the county magistrate welcomed another peak in his life!

The officials/officials who evaluated him were very satisfied, and even hinted that he could be promoted to another official position and serve in Ying Tianfu.

This is great news. At this moment, he thought of Li Ling, if it weren't for Li Jieyuan to take over the mess left by Sun Shanren. I'm afraid that he will also follow Ma Xiancheng to eat melons.

Li Jieyuan is his lucky star!

The county commander wants to feast Li Ling at home.

Although the family banquet is not very formal, it is more intimate, which means that the county order does not treat him as an outsider!

"Virtuous nephew, the old man was awarded the Jinshi twenty years ago, and he has been in the position of the county commander for more than ten years, and he has changed several places, I thought that this time he would change places after the expiration of his term, but I didn't expect to be able to move his position this time, this is all out of your blessing!". The county commander Lao Huai was comforted, in a good mood, and frequently persuaded Li Ling to drink.

The two examiners were naturally happy when they saw the scene of the construction of the East City Gate, and after some investigation, they made a promise to the county order to recommend him when they returned.

The two of them pushed the cups and changed the glasses, and gradually entered the best situation, when the wine was thick, the county order suddenly asked: "I don't know how Duke Xie Yuangong thinks of the sea ban of this dynasty?" ”。

If the traitors and the military and civilians build illegal ships with more than three masts without permission, they will take the prohibited goods to the sea, go to the country to buy and sell, infiltrate the pirates, conspire to gather, and plunder the good people as a guide, and the offender will be punished according to his own law, and the head will still be shown to the public, and the whole family will send border guards to fill the army. It built the sea ships mentioned above, sold them to those who made profits, and compared them with those who went to sea with forbidden weapons, so they leaked the law of military intelligence, beheaded those who were beheaded, and sent the army to the servants to the side.

The Ming Dynasty did not let go of the residents who participated in the buying and selling of foreign goods, "those who dare to have a private mutual market, must be put on the heavy law, all incense, goods are not allowed to be sold, and the existing ones are limited to three months." ”

"In order to prevent the coastal warlords and pirates from disturbing him, Taizu ordered the implementation of a sea ban. In the early days, the main object of the sea ban was commerce, prohibiting overseas business, and also restricting foreign merchants from trading in China. During the Yongle period, although Zheng He had the feat of going to the West, it was only tributary trade that was released, and private people were still not allowed to go to sea. Later, with the plague of the Japanese invaders, the maritime ban policy became more and more strict, and although it played a role in self-protection, it greatly hindered the development of exchanges with foreign countries. ”

Through the wine, Li Ling expressed his opinion: the sea ban does more harm than good. It was a mistake by the imperial court.

The magistrate stroked his beard and smiled a few times, his face cloudy.

Where did Li Ling set up the county order to deliberately pour himself, and after a while, he fell on the table.

In the haze, I felt that someone was supporting me, and I vaguely smelled a faint body fragrance.
