Yan Shannong's seeking benevolence is actually equivalent to the later generations of [smoking is harmful to health] [stock speculation is risky, you need to be cautious when entering the market] These sentences are general, it doesn't matter whether it is right or wrong, just tell everyone, do business! You have to be prepared to lose your family, when you are farming at home, God still has a good and bad year, do you have to ask the court to ensure that your whole family is rich?

Naturally, as a generation of Confucianism, it is impossible for the old man Yan to say it so naked, but the Ming Dynasty has a strong commercial atmosphere, and the people in the market are mostly engaged in business and trade, in fact, this is closely related to every household, why, because of Zhang Juzheng's whip law, the Ming Dynasty used to collect taxes in kind, Zhang Juzheng reformed and changed all the cash, the silver is not out of thin air, and naturally the people have to take things to sell, so the people in the Ming market have been pulling the small abacus very loudly in their hearts over the years.

Sometimes people's surnames are actually very dirty, such as this time 50,000 merchants died overseas, Shilin shook is true, but ordinary people in the market have many schadenfreude, without it, the grass is the king of the mountain when you drill into the mountain, but you can go to sea to do business, you don't have any net worth, how to get out? At this time, the Ming Dynasty was not the weak Qing Dynasty that was sold hundreds of years later, and it was the poor people who went abroad to make a living. At this time, anyone who can go to sea to make money, how can there be some silver at home, to use a popular saying, you don't have a family foundation of tens of thousands of taels of silver, and you are embarrassed to go to sea? What is the purpose of going to sea? It's not about taking raw silk, silk, Western sugar, porcelain, and other things out to trade with Fanren.

There are many records in the notes of the people of the time, a boatload of raw silk pulled out, pulled back is a boatload of silver, in the history of another few decades, Zheng Zhilong's fleet rampant in the south, tax all the merchant ships [5,000 gold per ship], it is also said [3,000 gold per ship], no matter 3,000 or 5,000, which people can take out this silver? You don't have to be rich and wealthy to do this business.

So Yan Shannong scolded, of course, as a Confucian, that is the top literati, literati scolding, always beating around the bush, even if he has a stomach in his stomach [lying in the mud of the Gobi], he always has to translate it, and he also scolds people to scold the letter, Ya, and Da, so to say that he seeks benevolence and gets benevolence, in fact, he deserves to die, going to sea is a risky thing, a storm may make you die and lose all your blood, what is there to make trouble, Qi Shaobao has been for the country and the people all his life, and the court asked him to get out of the way. You guys who only know how to make money for themselves, what are the dead people calling, get out of here.

Although the old man Yan did not say these words explicitly, but everyone chewed it out, at this time the Ming Dynasty folk wealth differentiation is extremely strong, some people have a golden horse and white jade hall, some people have pickles and nests, this background has given birth to a hatred of the rich mentality is not unusual, Yan Shannong is famous in the market, therefore, the people are even more excited, that is, the dead are rich people, and we people have a relationship with Yongle Tongbao? The silver of those people has not been scraped from us, and they are good to die, and they are to die wonderfully, and they are to be quacked.

Of course, so many merchants, it is impossible for all of them to be big businessmen, there must be businessmen with small doors, in the future, it is roughly equal to the level of township entrepreneurs, but township entrepreneurs he is also entrepreneurs, you ordinary farmers can not plant so many family foundations in a lifetime, these people may die wronged, but going to sea to trade, it is a risky thing, you have to complain if you die like this, that person fell to death while walking, drowned in swimming, isn't it all wronged to go home.

In short, as soon as the folk wind changed, it suddenly changed a taste, and the people in Kyushu all defeated the goods handed over by Little Luzon, so why should they return them to you big merchants without complaints?

There is one of the most critical points here, the Great Ming Law, if the lost property is claimed by the owner within one month, the person who found it should be paid equal to half of the original price, and if it is more than one month, the lost property will belong to the person who found it. This law was later inherited by the Qing Dynasty in its entirety, in fact, until the establishment of the Republic of China and the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the legislation of the Republic of China had such a provision, but the time became six months, and the value became three-tenths.

Moreover, don't despise the Ming people's low consciousness, and the law of the people who were only developed in a few hundred years is the same, for example, the Republic of China overthrew the Manchu Qing Dynasty and established a legal code, taking Germany as a model, the German civil law stipulates that if the lost property is less than ten marks, it will directly belong to the person who found it, and if it exceeds ten marks, it will be paid 5% for more than six months, and the lost property will be returned to the person who found it.

Therefore, in the story of "Three Words and Two Beats" at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Pei Du, a Tang Dynasty man in "Pei Jin Righteousness Restoration Match", was poor and destitute, and was determined by the fortune teller to die on the street. "Shi Runze Beach Que Meets Friends" Shi Fu returned the six taels of silver he picked, accumulated yin virtue, escaped great disasters repeatedly, became rich and noble, became the richest man in the local area, and died without illness at the age of eighty.

At that time, the customs were like this, the law was like this, and the things that were picked up were their own, so those who did not pick up gold were infinitely exalted (when I was a child, I found gold many times, hey!). Why is he not the richest man in Yangzhou now! I'm really depressed. There are laws, customs, and a generation of Confucianism calling for wind and rain, and the direction of the wind does not change, so it is strange, even those scholars, I have to say, this, my Ming law is like this, so it seems that this time it is not appropriate for the merchants. As for the elders of the imperial court, they were staggered by Old Man Yan's big mouth, and they spoke reasonably, why should they give it to you? Not convinced? Let's speak according to the "Da Ming Law".

When the obedient official in Suzhou saw the first edition of the People's Newspaper and saw Yan Shannong's article, he really laughed and fell, this old man is really extravagant, it is not in vain that I tried my best to invite people over, there is this old man sitting in Ningbo, and the rear is fixed.

The red-faced, white-faced, black-faced, and flowery-faced, each of you sang and I appeared, those businessmen were so anxious that they jumped to their feet, looking at their own ships and their own goods, they wanted to grab them, but they couldn't grab them, they had swords, guns, armor, fleets, and Francophone guns, and they wanted to cry, but people didn't buy it...... Seeing that he was moored at the Ningbo wharf like this, but he couldn't get his hands on it, is there anything more aggrieved than this in the world!

At this time, the autumn wind blew, the rice in the south of the Yangtze River was ripe, and the farmers in Ningbo began to grab the harvest, which was hot, and Shen Dunyu and Shen Fuzun were soaked in the ridge all day long, only for more than ten days, and they were so thin that their cheeks were sunken in, at this time the farmers were still very simple, and they were so moved that they called him Shen Qingtian, of course, Shen Qingtian made silver, which is also a reason.

The envoy of Kyushu finally changed his words at this time, saying that there were too many goods, and it was difficult to determine whose family it was, so as to avoid disputes, it was decided to auction, and the highest price would not exceed half of itself. Ask for half of the pay, but can you refuse? Sensei said that the time has been more than a month, and if people don't give it, this lawsuit can't be won, and now people are willing to auction, thank God for it!

However, a new question arises, what is the price of this auction? Is it the price in Daming? Or the price of Fuso? Or is it simply the price of little Luzon? If the price of Daming, if you don't say it, you must be crazy to rob, half of its own value, buy it back and sell it again, one in and one out is one-half of the profit, and the heroes of the green forest are not as fast as this silver! If you go to North Korea and Fusang to sell, the profit will be at least several times, and if you are more courageous, go through the door of Little Luzon and sell it to the Franco, then the profit will be more than ten times.

When the merchants were shocked, the envoy of Kyushu spoke through the people's newspaper, saying that I was a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, and naturally used the local price of the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as this remark came out, the whole Jiangnan went crazy, just like Yan Shannong said, capital is profit-seeking, such a big profit is placed there, who cares who you belong to the property itself, countless businessmen are like sharks smelling blood, and the original owners of those goods are white-faced, but they are not allowed to think about it, at this time, the key is how to get the goods into their hands again.

Half of the price of Daming, some businessmen say, Sensei says half, I will buy the full price!

This is equivalent to the future stock limit can not be bought, at this time suddenly some released, how can there be no crazy robbery, such as raw silk, this thing, no matter how much, as long as there is goods, absolutely not worry about not selling, sometimes you have money does not mean that you can buy goods, small businessmen may count on half the price, but for those big businessmen, eat at full price, still sell, the profit is still terrible.

Therefore, at this time, who would consider what this product was originally owned by a certain marquis or a certain pavilion elder, as long as there is a profit, the business of killing the head is done.

The merchants who flocked to the south of the Yangtze River were not only from the south of the Yangtze River, but even the merchants from the north of Zhili also heard the wind and moved, you know, such things as raw silk crude medicine, sold to the Tartar realm, that is also a source of money, don't worry about not being able to sell it, half of the price of the Ming Dynasty, fools don't buy it!

For a while, the inns in Ningbo were full, and the organic people cleaned their yards, and those merchants did not ask the price, but lived directly in it.

However, after the Kyushu Commander released his words, there was no follow-up, some of the big merchants who arrived early saw the endless stream of merchants rushing to Ningbo from the land and the sea, and they were in a hurry, and they couldn't help it at this time, and sent people near the wharf, as long as they saw the people coming down from the ship, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, they grabbed it and stuffed the silver into the hands of the people, and only asked one word, when did the general envoy start to auction those goods?

The stuffed silver is naturally effective, but there is still not much news to ask, but after a few days, the people said that the report came out again, and there were words from the envoy of Kyushu, saying that he had always admired the White Palace, and the Nanjing garrison eunuch Mu Jiugong, who had also been friends with God for a long time, and if there were two adults who recommended them, they could be eligible for auction.

As soon as he said this, the businessmen scolded, if we don't bring such a playful person, is it possible that we still have to ask Uncle Zheng Guo and the greedy old eunuch in Nanjing nicknamed [Mu Grass]?

At this time, there were rumors in mind, saying that Uncle Zheng Guo actually called His Royal Highness, with ill intentions, but at present, with huge profits, no one is willing to offend Uncle Zheng Guo at this moment, and even has to wash the ground for Zheng Guofan, saying that Uncle Zheng Guo has worshiped the king of Fusang and Fusang, and the Da Ming Law does not allow the vassal king to admire Uncle Guocai and then worship his brother! Call Your Highness, that is the respect of the Fusang people, as a Ming person, you should feel proud.

In short, even the obedient officials blushed when they heard this, knowing that these people were patting on the back, pointing at themselves to give them the qualifications to participate in the auction!

As soon as he heard the news, he almost fainted, but the two such as Mrs. Chuizhuang and Shanxi rubbed the old eunuch's heart for a while, and then the old eunuch was rubbed back to his soul.

The old eunuch's face suddenly rose, you know, a Kyushu envoy who had just defeated Little Luzon gave him face, doesn't that mean that the Nanjing garrison position under his ass is unbreakable! This envoy of Kyushu only gave the emperor face before! Later, the elders didn't give face, but now they only give it to Uncle Guo and our family, which is really a big face!

He knew that he was taking Uncle Guo's tailwind boat, and he was just about to send his subordinates to Suzhou to thank Uncle Guo with his cronies, but he didn't want to, so Uncle Guo sent someone first.

It was Jinyiwei who tried the hundred households Wang Qinian, who is now also promoted, and after saluting the old eunuch, he said, "Father-in-law, come down, bring a letter from the governor of the capital......"

The old eunuch took the letter, and at this time remembered that Uncle Zheng Guo was now the governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in Nanjing, and he said to Wang Qinian with a smile on his face: "Take care of your family's affairs as the Metropolitan Governor." While unpacking the mud and unfolding the letter, I suddenly felt that my heart was beating wildly, my mouth was dry, my legs were weak, and I couldn't help but call Mrs. Annanru to hang the village, "Hurry up...... Help our family. ”

The next day, the old eunuch proudly announced that anyone who held shares in the Nine Sides Commercial Bank could go to Ningbo to participate in the purchase of seized materials at a low price.

In other words, Mu Jiu Lao still has some ability, he listened to the words of the good official, and made a lot of money by the Nine Sides Commercial Bank, and now Uncle Guo gave him face, and the Nine Sides Commercial Bank can go to Ningbo to buy the materials that were snatched back by the Kyushu Metropolitan Envoy at a low price, this, this, this, it's just picking people to make a fortune! It's pie in the sky!

First of all, when the good official suggested that the old eunuch engage in the nine-sided trading house, the positioning was relatively low-end, and there may be one or two big businessmen to give the old eunuch face, but in fact, the vast majority of the members are businessmen who have assets, but have no merit and fame, and have no merit in their bodies, which proves that his business must not be big, but compared to ordinary people, they must be rich, then, it is equivalent to spending money to buy a qualification to go to school. Although going to school is only the lowest of the Ming Dynasty's fame.

So the old eunuch this nine-sided firm small businessmen are the majority, the old eunuch said that those who hold shares of the nine-sided firm can go to Ningbo, and the small businessmen are also wise, everyone discussed, this is the grand duke to pick us to make a fortune, it seems that the original spent money to buy the seemingly useless nine-sided land, it is still cost-effective, such as today's people's eyes are staring at that side! Wealthy businessmen are not calculated, we are all petty fights, and we have to form a group.

These Nanjing merchants immediately formed a huge team of more than 300 people, each raised silver, elected two people to be the masters, and went straight to Ningbo.

Mu Jiugong's opening made many people think about it, especially the countless nobles in Nanjing, but the old eunuch also knew the severity in his heart, and at this time he bit it and refused to let go, but no one got the qualification from him, this is the benefit of eunuchs, they don't need to give face to others, they only need to do a good job for the emperor, and you still have nothing to do with him.

Since there is no hope for the eunuchs guarding in Nanjing, then the only way to find Uncle Zheng Guo under the White Palace in Suzhou is to go to Suzhou.

And Zheng Chengguan, at this time, was smiling and writing a letter in person, to the unjust merchants in Yangzhou Mansion who spent 10,000 taels of silver to see the super girl's voice, telling these people that you are qualified to go to Ningbo to make a fortune, hurry up, there is a lot of money there, people are stupid, go quickly.
