Chapter 330: Carrots and Sticks
The situation of the countries was narrated in Lao Rui's mouth, and he talked about it for more than half an hour, and everyone was fascinated by it, originally thinking that Ma Sanbao's father-in-law would be amazing when he went to the West, feelings, and so many countries in the West.
"The people of Europa are stupid and have a lot of money." Lao Rui didn't regard himself as a European at all at this time, just like later generations said that banana people were general, "A bag of pepper can change a manor." ”
As he spoke, he took out a bag of pepper, and everyone was dumbfounded, the so-called bag, that is, a palm-sized bag, held in his hand and weighed, and the money bag that had not yet contained bits and pieces of silver weighed, this is a manor!
"There's little Luzon." Lao Rui slapped on the map with a snap and said categorically: "The gold and silver of the entire earth are my Ming...... Of course, all of you are here. ”
There are no stupid people present, not to mention anything else, just Little Luzon has died so many merchants, the so-called one radish and one pit, and so many pits are removed, this is a piece of fat and a mess of fat, and if you bite it, your mouth will be full of oil! What's more, there is also the bag of pepper for the Europa of the manor, the pupils of each eye are dilated, the wings of the nose are open, and I can't wait to pass it immediately.
Of course, the rational ones are not nothing, they are all thinking in their hearts, this little Luzon, the emperor is far away, and there are no soldiers and horses and warships in the imperial court, and it is not the meat of other people's mouths in the past, and after a few years of fattening, it is like the 50,000 merchants, slaughtering fat pigs and killing them, if Ma Sanbao's father-in-law goes to the West, it is almost the same, and the imperial court has hundreds of warships alone...... The so-called birds in the forest, it is better to have a bird in hand, speaking of which, it is still a good deal for Ran Xuan to say, so there is some indifference in his eyes.
"But before that." Lao Rui slowly looked at everyone, especially those who didn't seem to care much on the surface, and then said: "Most of my family governors are also willing to share the trade between Fuso and North Korea with you, Fusang's swords, gold and silver, North Korea's paper, pen and ink, you can all trade, starting next year, without the permission of the Kyushu Propaganda Envoy Tachibana Boss, the rest of the people will not be able to trade in Fuso and North Korea......"
The obedient official standing in the hall clasped his hands to his chest, with a faint smile on his face, this is the temptation to take heavy profits, big profits and small profits, one profit and one profit, and do not worry that these people will not bite the hook.
"Now Fusang Shijian Yinshan is in the hands of the governor of my family, and he produces three million taels of silver a year, which is just one of the various gold and silver mines in Fusang." Lao Rui said proudly in the hissing voice of everyone: "It can be said that Fusang Island is a huge mountain of gold, digging hard, digging for five hundred years is not a problem, if you are willing to work with the governor of my family, this mine, it is not impossible to share profits." ”
A silver mine produces three million taels of silver a year, and it is strange that Uncle Zheng Guo splashes water to make silver, and the family is really a sea of gold and silver! Our Ming Dynasty only produces 100,000 taels of silver a year, so I can't compare!
At this time, even Tu Ranxuan, who closed his eyes and was in a recuperating state, his eyelids trembled slightly, and his heart was obviously moved, not to mention other people.
Who is not envious, how much silver can be earned by making money on the land? Where is the annual tax payment target of Ningbo Prefecture? If you say that restaurants, restaurants, pawnshops, etc., although they also make money, where there is such a huge profit, compare with each other, it is really like a drop in the bucket.
"You are all big families, there are many heirs in the family, there is always a time when the distribution is unfair, the palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, who has been wronged, and they are not comfortable in their hearts, if the children and grandchildren are not filial, fight for the family property, one, it is a joke, and second, it will inevitably thin the strength of the family." The obedient official clapped his hands at this time, smiled and threw out a bait, "Guofan is willing to solve problems for you, the official position of Fusang Country is similar to the title of our Ming Dynasty, and it can also be hereditary, go out to have face, farmers must kneel on the side of the road when they see adults traveling, if they don't kneel, they can kill ...... at will."
He said that Fusang was a big deal, and the Ming people of this Japanese country knew that it was a small overseas country, but this small country was only for the imperial court, so what if Fusang was compared with Ningbo Mansion? Then there is no comparison, Ningbo is just one house, and there are eight! However, the top of the house is more weighted, in Zhejiang, if you mention the eight, others will also say, oh! Ningbo Tujia, Ningbo Zhangjia, but it's just so cloudy, after all, the place is so big, if you look at the entire Jiangnan, it is not enough to see, let alone the entire Ming Dynasty.
Everyone is particularly tempted, the Celestial Empire pays attention to a branch and leaves, and the blood is spreading, when Emperor Taizu founded the country, how many people were in the old Zhu family? And now! There are at least 50,000 old Zhu family bloodlines on the jade of the Zongren Mansion, which is still on the register, not on the register?
The land is fixed, but the population of the family will grow, if this uncle is really willing to do this, although Fusang is an overseas vassal country, moving some branches of the family is also a way to reduce the pressure.
At that moment, everyone looked at each other, and called Zhang Fatzi with their eyes, Zhang Fatzi snorted, and it was not my Zhang Ye who came out, swaggering in and saying: "These are also a way to make money, okay, our eight families will be the same as Uncle Guo, but did Uncle Guo first release the shopkeepers of our eight stores?" Also, Tu Yi Mansion Tu Wuye, that is also a famous person who has been famous in our Sanwu realm for 20 years, Uncle Guo is tied up like this, do you want to give an explanation! ”
He said, hehe, smiled, pointed to Sugatani Risa and said: "Let's not talk about these mundane things like silver, this little lady looks good, and she will be written off before." ”
Under the big package, he thought he was a man of his word! Not far from the side, Luo Zizhang sneered, pig brain, the eight families are now the meat on the chopping board of others, and they are embarrassed to mention these words, I really don't know whether to live or die.
Risha Sugatani was so angry that her little face turned white, and the obedient official was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "This ...... What do you call it? ”
The fat man ignored the clan brother next to him and stepped on his feet, and smiled and arched his hand, "Don't give your surname Zhang, Zhang Zifang." ”
The obedient official immediately stroked his palm, "Good name." As he spoke, his eyes glanced at Tu Ranxuan, who was sitting on the chair of the first master, and sneered in his heart, why, use this kind of stunned guy to test me?
He laughed a few times, then took out a silk book from his bosom, looked at the fat man, looked at the people around him, showed the silk book in his hand, and said: "As long as you draw a charge on this covenant, everything is easy to say, what kind of land, silver, and other things, whether life or death is brought or not, what do you think!" He looked at Zhang Fatzi, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but pull to the side, revealing a strange expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "This brother Zifang, Emperor Zhaolie once said that brothers are like siblings, and women are like clothes......"
After Liu Bei's death, he was called Zhaolie, this sentence [brothers are like siblings, women are like clothes] was said to be rotten by the gentlemen of the Three Kingdoms, who doesn't know who doesn't know, Zhang Fatzi was overjoyed at the moment, and looked at the timid eyes of the obedient official and was about to stretch out his hand.
As soon as a hand stretched out, it was tightly grasped by the good official, he looked up, the good official had a strange look in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Slow down......"
Pulling hard to break free from the obedient official's hand, Zhang Fatzi hummed and reached out to take the silk book, and said to himself: "Isn't it just to draw a bet, I'll go first." As he spoke, he held the silk book in his left hand and swept his eyes on the palm of his hand, and reached out to his belt with his right hand to touch the copper seal that he commonly used in his own house, and he was about to prepare for the seal.
He glanced at it a few times, and suddenly his face changed color, and his fat body trembled.
The corner of the obedient official's mouth sneered, and he thought of Grandma Wenren's words in his heart, "Master, the truth in this world!" It's nothing more than a mouthful and then a red date, as big as the court, as small as the family, all of them, to surrender to the eight families, it can't be done by lure alone, and you have to stand up, the historian said that the thunder and rain and dew are all the grace of heaven, that's the reason, so you can't just lure, you have to threaten ......"
This is actually the practice of carrots and sticks in later generations of Citigroup, ancient and modern.
At this time, the brother next to Zhang Fatzi couldn't help but poke his head over to look, looked at it a few times, and immediately changed his face, which was originally a ruddy face, and suddenly the blood faded...... The obedient official smiled, lowered his head and flicked his nails, and said slowly: "Everyone take a look, if there is anything wrong, we can also change it, everything is foreseen, and if it is not prepared, it will be wasted, Ran Xuangong, right!" ”
The silk book taken out by the obedient official is also very simple, the eight commercial houses under their command can do business in Fusang, North Korea and the places occupied by the Xuanwei Division of Kyushu, there is a name for the most preferential treatment, which is actually not new, equivalent to the Ming Dynasty's tooth shop or business hall, but there are only a few articles in front, and the following is the key, the prince born after Concubine De, the eight families want to write to the prince.
This is the most ruthless, as soon as such a thing is signed, if the eldest son of the emperor ascends to the pole in the future, the eight families are afraid that they will be wiped out.
Everyone looked at it, their faces were gray, although Liu was shocked by the two boxes of obedient officials, but in the end he has been holding the financial power in Tu's mansion for many years, when he saw everyone's faces, he knew that it was wrong, and he took broken steps and took the silk book and walked to the old lady Tu, Tu Ranxuan was over eighty years old, his eyes were not very good, Liu read it softly, and when he read it back, his voice was also a little trembling.
has always been the person who sat on that chair, always doing everything, all of them were bloody, and Emperor Yongle Jing was unable to snatch the seat of his nephew Emperor Jianwen...... After the noon gate bloody case, Yu Qian and the hundred officials invited the king to ascend to the pole, which was for Emperor Jingtai, and eight years later, the change of seizing the door, the restoration of Yingzong, and Yu Qian and a group of hundred officials died unjustly...... Under the emperor's chair, there are all white bones!
As soon as this thing is signed, there is no turning back, and you can only follow this uncle to the black, but, after counting the Ming Emperor, Emperor Jianwen is the eldest grandson of the emperor, Renzong Zhu Gaochi is the eldest son of Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji is the eldest son of Renzong, Yingzong Zhu Qizhen is the eldest son of Xuanzong, Xianzong Zhu Jianshen is the eldest son of Yingzong, although Xiaozong is the third son of Xianzong, but the first two are dead, which is equivalent to the eldest son, Wuzong Zhu Houzhao is the eldest son of Xiaozong, and Emperor Jiajing is Wuzong's cousin, but Wuzong has no son, Although Emperor Longqing is not the eldest son, the situation is similar to that of Xiaozong, and Emperor Wanli is the third son of Emperor Longqing, but he is still similar to Xiaozong.
