Wan Jiantu's high wages finally began to react, and the rich and idle laborers from the surrounding counties of Shanghai poured into Shanghai, and in the face of the crowds of people from all over the country, not only Yinzhen and Haifeng were busy with their feet not touching the ground, but also Xu Shizhen, the prefect of Shanghai, and Zhu Yanzhi, the prefect of Songjiang, were also busy. Bayi Chinese~

Zhu Yanzhi was awarded the title of deputy director of Jiangxi Customs by Yinzhen a few years ago, he simply went to Jiangning, visited the governor of Liangjiang and the governor of Suzhou, and asked to move the office to Shanghai.

In order to prevent the sudden influx of people from causing prices to rise in Shanghai, Zhu Yanzhi and Xu Shizhen had to mobilize a number of daily necessities from the nearby prefectures and counties, with grain and building materials being the top priority, while Yinzhen was recruiting people to build houses in or around the county seat.

Because of Yinzhen's habits, Zhu Yanzhi, Xu Shizhen, Hai Feng, Wan Jiantu and others have formed a routine of rushing to Liuchun Garden to report at four o'clock every day. On the morning of the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, after everyone made a routine report, Yinzhen said: "Tomorrow and the next two days will be the day when the Jianghai Customs and the county government and the government will 'open the seal'. ”

After saying the polite words, Yinzhen turned to Zhu Yanzhi, "Lord Zhu, have you seen the newly formulated customs system?" Do you have any objections or are there any additions? ”

"The lower officials are ashamed." Zhu Yanzhi stood up solemnly and bowed, "On behalf of all the shippers in the world, the lower official thanked the Fourteenth Master for his kindness. Straightening up, he said with emotion: "The customs system formulated by the fourteenth master has made detailed provisions on the declaration, inspection, tax assessment, audit, taxation, payment, inspection and release of import and export goods. Coupled with the two items of high salaries and public reporting, the lower officials dare to ensure that the vast majority of officials and employees will not dare to be corrupt again. This customs system, once made public, will definitely shake the world, and the imperial court will definitely implement it in the national customs. ”

This is absolutely true, but Yinzhen said with a straight face: "No matter how good the system is, it must be implemented by people, otherwise it is just empty talk, Lord Zhu's duty is to thoroughly implement these systems, to be iron-faced and selfless, if anyone dares to violate the system, resolutely expelled, must not be soft." Tomorrow is the day when the customs 'open the seal', and Lord Zhu must post the new customs system in the county, port and various checkpoints, organize all the customs officials and staff to study, and ask all of them to memorize. In addition, the adjustment of import and export tax rates is also posted. ”

Sending Zhu Yanzhi away, Yinzhen looked at Xu Shizhen again, "Lord Xu, there will be more people in Shanghai in the next few months, and the pressure on clothing, food, housing, transportation, public security, environmental sanitation and other aspects will be great. ”

Xu Shizhen waved his hand, "The lower officials have thanked the Fourteenth Master for their considerate care, and he will definitely do his best to ensure the stability of Shanghai and not make the Fourteenth Master have worries." ”

Next is Wan Jiantu, Yinzhen said with satisfaction; "I went to see the progress of the shed yesterday, and it was not bad, but the wage should be considered to be lowered, otherwise the migrant workers in the future will be this standard, and I will not be able to bear it, and it will slowly drop to a level higher than the normal wage Reading Pavilion, the salary can be settled in seven days, and they must be guaranteed to get their wages in time, on time and in full. In addition, have the planning and design drawings of the shipyard been completed? ”

Wan Jiantu calmly replied, "Back to the master, judging from the current progress of the shed, after half a month, you can start to slowly reduce the wage standard, and there is a special person responsible for the payment of wages, and the master has a report box on the construction site, no one dares to have so much courage to drive down the master's affairs." The design drawings of the shipyard could be completed in three more days, because he was not at ease about a few of them, and the slave went to Jiangning again after the year, which delayed some time. ”

Yinzhen nodded approvingly, and said kindly, "Doing things rigorously is what it should be, if there is a slight mistake in the design, the trouble behind will be big, well, reward you and twenty taels of silver to encourage, do a good job." ”

"Thank you for your favor." Wan Jiantu was originally a little worried about being trained, but he didn't expect to be rewarded, and he couldn't help but sigh that this master had a long-term vision and was busy thanking for the reward.

Yinzhen then ordered, "You go down and call Wu Tianming and Hu Chengkun." ”

Finally, Yinzhen looked at Haifeng, "The stall in Shanghai is about to be fully rolled out, I can't stay in Shanghai all the time, everything will be handled by you in the future, you have to be mentally prepared, from now on, start to learn to control the overall situation." ”

"Master." Hai Feng said a little shyly, "This mess is a bit big, the slave doesn't have this experience, I'm afraid of messing up the master's errand." ”

"Experience is slowly accumulated, I'm not still in Shanghai recently, learn more and ask more questions, learn to grasp the big and let go of the small, learn to use people, people use the right people, you will be much easier." Yin Zhen changed his tone and said in a deep voice, "I'm not in Shanghai, if you don't arrest this mess, who will arrest it?" Handed over to others, I really don't feel at ease. ”

Seeing that Yinzhen said this, where did Hai Feng dare to excuse himself, and he pierced a thousand children on the spot, and Zhengse said, "The slave must do his best to share the worries of the master." ”

"Get up and salute at a moment's notice." Yin Zhen smiled.

After seeing the ceremony, Yinzhen said lightly: "Wu Tianming, you used to be the shopkeeper in Brother Jiu's shop, and now you still go back to your old business, and you will arrest the purchase of cotton cloth for your master, and in the future, the 'Global Ocean Company' will be handed over to you to take care of, and all prefectures, counties, and towns must set up purchase points and build warehouses, and the price of cloth cannot be reduced or the interests of weavers can be harmed. In addition, with so many outlets, you can use your brains to sell points or collect other things, one is to maintain the expenses of the 'Global Ocean Bank', and the other is to avoid causing the price of cloth to be too high, and if you have a surplus, you can also send some benefits to the guys of each semicolon. ”

When Wu Tianming heard this, his face turned red with excitement, "Thank you master Longen, the slave will definitely live up to the master's trust." ”

"Well, follow the master, you don't have to worry about having no future and no background, let alone no money. But if anyone dares to be long, he doesn't mind killing a few Liwei. Although Yinzhen's tone was light, he listened to the cold behind the few people in the room.

"The minions don't dare." Even Hai Feng was so frightened that he knelt down.

Yinzhen glanced at a few people with satisfaction, and then said, "Get up and read the pavilion." Then he said to Hu Chengkun: "You are from the master of money and grain, first assist Haifeng, and grasp the income and expenditure of money and grain, personnel deployment, and material entry and exit of each factory." As he spoke, he took out a small notebook and handed it to Haifeng, "This is what I wrote about some of the systems of each factory, and there are detailed regulations on finance, statistics, auditing, and the rewards and punishments of personnel. The people brought from the capital, as well as the children of the family who have recently begun to defect, must have the courage to promote these people, but they must also be carefully screened, and if they are talents, they will be used boldly, and those with poor moral character, no matter who they are, they will be expelled from me. ”

On the 19th day of the first lunar month, the Jiangxi Customs 'opened the seal', and the new rules and regulations of the Jiangxi Customs were pasted all over the county and port of Shanghai early in the morning, and Zhu Yanzhi not only posted and announced them, but also sent people to guard the system and explain it one by one, and the news immediately spread to the entire Shanghai county in less than an hour.

Because it is already close to the date of going to sea, many crew owners, shipowners, and businessmen are gathered in Shanghai, and the new system of Jiang Customs is closely related to them, who doesn't care? As soon as the news spread, the various announcement points were immediately surrounded by water, with the explanation of the narrator one by one, the applause was endless, the perennial victim of the ship, the businessman was naturally ecstatic, when he heard that Yinzhen, who was the supervisor of the Jiang Customs, set up a special reporting point in Liuchun Garden, and promised to give the whistleblower a reply within five days of this system, the whole scene almost got out of control.

The reputation of the fourteenth prince, Beile Yinzhen, who was honest and loved the people, immediately spread from Shanghai.
