Chapter 84: Return to Beijing

Early in the morning of the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, Yinzhen's edict to serve as the chief superintendent of the General Administration of Customs was transmitted to Shanghai, which also mentioned that Yinzhen should return to Beijing to report on his work.

Since he was going back to Beijing, Yinzhen naturally wanted to rush back to Beijing for the New Year, he immediately arranged the things at hand, called Hai Feng, and rushed to the Naval Academy together, the firearms factory and foundry are close to completion, the shipyard, ironworks, and quilt factories are expected to be completed after March next year, and the two 2,000-material new ships of Zhang Yuanlong Shipyard have been launched, and now all the docks have begun to build new ships at full capacity, and he doesn't have to worry about these, the only thing is to worry about the children of the clan.

Rushing to the Naval Academy, Yinzhen immediately summoned the cadets above the squad leader level and announced four disciplines: First, the Spring Festival holiday is three days, and those who dare to make trouble in Shanghai will be expelled immediately. 2. The training will be carried out according to the normal plan, the queue training will be strengthened, and the opening ceremony of the Naval Academy will be held soon, and a military parade will be held at that time. 3. The four new ships that have been launched will be used for training first, and the trainees will be taken on board in turn to adapt to the offshore sea. Fourth, Wu Ge and Yande are responsible for small matters, and Yan Haifeng is in charge of major matters.

After the dismissal of the people, he left Wu Ge and Yande behind, and instructed them to respect the Western sailor instructors and translator instructors, to restrain the students, and not to disturb the local area.

In mid-October, Yinzhen was ordered to rectify and standardize the management of overseas trading vessels, but he had no experience in this area, so he had to look around and find some old officials, and gather them together to formulate rules and regulations for management.

Seeing that Yinzhen did not make a move for a long time, a group of maritime merchants and wealthy families couldn't help but be lucky, and they all waited and watched, but as soon as the news of Yinzhen's appointment as the chief superintendent of customs spread, these people immediately became anxious.

General Inspector of Customs, all the customs of the Qing Dynasty in the future are under his jurisdiction, this fourteenth master is not a master of peace, this year he made a cotton cloth export franchise, God knows what demon moth he will make next year, but one thing, everyone knows, with him to have a good relationship, that is only good and no harm.

Isn't Zhang Yuanlong the first to take refuge in the role model, a year to shake again, and more prosperous than before, as long as you want a share of cotton cloth, who doesn't treat him as a bodhisattva? Don't say any of this, he Zhang Yuanlong bribed the governor of Liangjiang Kali to resell a large amount of rice, and was denounced, before he was changed, I am afraid that he would have been exiled long ago, but now he has not hurt a single hair, and the new ships of 1500 materials and 2000 materials are still launched one after another, not all because there are fourteen masters behind them.

As soon as the news spread, no matter far or near, all those who had anything to do with the sea trade flocked to Shanghai and flocked to Liuchun Garden. Shanghai and the surrounding counties of the sea trade, the big ship owners Tangjia, Shajia, Zhangjia, Yinjia, Gujia, Xujia, Wangjia and so on all rushed to Liuchun Garden at the fastest speed.

Yinzhen is a closed-door thanksgiving, in the back house and Zhang Mengjiao to discuss the matter of going to the capital, Zhang Mengjiao has been in the house for almost a year, it stands to reason that it is time to say goodbye to the dock, although Zhang Mengjiao is unwilling, but also knows that it is a matter of time before he goes to the capital, can not give those sisters who have not met the impression of being favored and proud, so as not to be difficult to deal with in the future, since Zhang Mengjiao wants to accompany him, Yinzhen will not dare to delay, and will set off for Beijing early the next morning.

On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, the year-end inventory of the "Four Constants" was completed, since the imperial court issued the "Detailed Rules for Rectifying and Regulating the Ticket Number" in September last year, the "Four Constants" monopolized the ticket number industry in the country at the fastest speed, and the silver ticket numbers around the country have gone bankrupt and changed careers, and the "Four Constants" have dominated the national market without much effort.

Although there was a lot of investment in the early stage, it took nearly a year and a half to complete. The net profit of the four Heng's is still an astonishing 5.6 million, far exceeding Yinzhen's previous expectations, seeing the statistical results, Zheng Shichang was also surprised, for a while he didn't know how to be good, although he has never had the experience of managing such a large-scale ticket number, but with his years of experience, he feels that he should intercept a part of the funds in case of emergency, although Kangxi is the largest proprietor, but he still believes in Yinzhen the most, and decided to wait for Yinzhen to come to Beijing to discuss and then report it.

At the same time, he felt for the first time that the shares in his hands were hot, with the development momentum of the 'four constants', the annual profits will only get higher and higher in the future, his Zheng family accounts for one percent of the shares, the annual dividend alone is more than 500,000 yuan, it is really too eye-catching, he is now early in the morning of the twelfth day of the lunar month, Yinzhen served as the chief superintendent of the General Administration of Customs, and the edict was transmitted to Shanghai, which also mentioned that Yinzhen should return to Beijing to report on his work.

On the twentieth day of the lunar month, Kangxi issued an order to carry out a series of appointments and dismissals:

Xiao Yongzao, the secretary of the ministry, is a scholar of Wenhua Palace.

Transfer the military department of the book Wang Xuan, for the Ministry of Rites book. Xu Yuanzheng, the imperial history of the left capital, is the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.

Promoted to the vanguard to lead the Eyi to the white flag of the Han army.

The commander of the escort army, Bo Tang, was the commander of the left flank forward.

Promoted to the governor of Caoyun, Sang, as the secretary of the ministry. With the left servant of the Ministry Lang Heshou as the governor of Caoyun.

Guo Shilong, the governor of Shenghuguang, is the secretary of the criminal department.

Zhao Shenqiao, the governor of Yuanyuan, was the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Palace.

Most of this series of personnel appointments and dismissals are related to the crown prince Yinren, the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, and the eighth elder brother Yinzhen, and the three of them are all suspicious and secretly speculate about Kangxi's meaning.

On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, Yinzhen and his entourage arrived in Tongzhou, which was only forty miles away from Beijing, seeing that it was getting late, Yinzhen was waiting to be instructed to go to the Luhe Water Horse Station, but saw someone on the shore shouting, "But the merchants from Shanghai?" ”

Yinzhen couldn't help but wonder, who wants to block here to see himself? Just as he was about to ask aloud, the man said again: "I don't know if there is any news of Zheng Qingyuan?" ”

Yinzhen understood as soon as he heard it, it was Zheng Shichang's person, and he didn't know what urgency he had to come here to see him, so he immediately ordered: "Dai Lisheng, you go and say hello." "Dai Lisheng is Dai Zi's grandson, a new addition to the guard, with a new face, no one knows him.

It didn't take long for Zheng Shichang to hurry over, and after seeing the salute, he said, "Fourteenth master, the time is urgent, and the lower officials have to make this decision." As he spoke, he told him about the situation of the 'Four Hengs'.

After listening to Yinzhen, he glanced at him appreciatively, and said with a slight sigh: "Your idea is correct, you should keep a part for backup, printing and papermaking research and development requires a lot of money, and it is impossible for such a large silver number to have no reserved cash in hand, this year I will first take out four million to dividends, and set aside 20% as reserve funds every year in the future, do a good job of accounts, and don't make a noise to the outside world." ”

"The Fourteenth Master is really long-sighted." When Zheng Shichang heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "In addition, there is another thing, which is about the shares in the hands of the lower officials, ......." ”

Before he finished speaking, Yinzhen was already laughing and said, "What's the matter, it's hot to think the silver?" ”

"It's like a dream to think about it, and there will be a day when you will be worried about having more money." Zheng Shichang laughed self-deprecatingly: "However, Xiaguan's shares do increase a little more, I don't know how many people covet it, and it's not a good thing for a long time." ”

Yinzhen put himself in his shoes and thought about it, it is true, although Kangxi has a will, no one is allowed to fight the idea of the Zheng family's shares, but it is clear that he does not dare, it is difficult to ensure that no one uses his brains, but the Zheng family is his own banner, and it must not be down, after meditating for a long time, he said, "My current stall is very large, you can pick someone who is good at financial management to help me, and go back to pick a good one among the grandchildren, choose a shrewd and capable one, I ask the emperor to make him into the guard." Don't think about the shares now. ”

When Zheng Shichang heard this, he was grateful, and he was able to deliver a message in front of the Fourteenth Master and the emperor at any time, but there was really nothing to worry about, "The Fourteenth Master's great kindness, the Zheng family will never be repaid." ”
