Chapter 408 is based on Jin

In early September, Wang Tong received a handwritten letter stamped with Shen Yuan's seal. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Although the info letter was tactful, it was still very firm in his refusal to ship shipbuilding.

For this answer, this response was expected by Wang Tong, but he was still a little disappointed, according to the eyeliner report arranged near the Luhai Commercial Bank, after the interview with Shen Kun, many people in the Luhai Commercial Bank moved out, and most of the people who moved out lived on the boat.

Some people simply don't get off the ship, and some people go back and forth between the ship and the firm every day, although it is very troublesome, Wang Tong didn't expect Luhai Firm to have such a sensitive reaction, and all he did was to laugh.

Sanshui Wang and Tianjin Wei seem to have some differences, but the money for the insurance company has already been delivered, and there is no objection to the withdrawal of shares at this time.

The first thing the insurance firm with a capital of 2 million taels of shares did was to tidy up the wasteland between the commercial district and the seaside, recruit a large number of people, clear the weeds, fill in the potholes, and then make a large road out of gravel and ash.

After the land is leveled, planning will be carried out before the house can be built, but the enthusiasm of the people is really high, since the insurance company is a joint venture of everyone. Shareholders large and small will be notified of these action plans, and the news will be dispersed through these large and small shareholders and merchants.

The labor of leveling the land has not yet passed, and the person who paid the deposit has already broken through the threshold of the insurance industry, and everyone has not even seen the leveled land, but everyone only wants to be qualified to queue up early, and only wants to be able to choose a good location among the shops that will be built in the future.

The road made of gravel and ash had even returned to its roots, and the timber merchants of Tianjin Wei were all elated when they saw the big timber brought from Liaozhen.

Some logs should be sold whole, this can be done by waterway, and some need to be broken on the spot, made into boards and transported to Tianjin Wei everywhere for use, this small amount of goods to and fro, as well as the carpenter labor of processing wood, it may not be convenient to take a boat, there needs to be such a big road.

At that time, in order to facilitate the unloading of goods from the water, the location chosen was quite far away from the commercial area, and the carpentry merchants and Sun Shoulian paid the money for the goods, but now the wood could not be transported back, think about the fact that Sun Shoulian promised to at least a few batches of large timber before the closure of the sea in November, what to do with the future transportation.

Everyone knows that the insurance company has money, and everyone knows that the insurance company has money, but this time there is no need for the insurance company to trouble, and we are willing to pay this fee in advance.

When the director of the insurance company heard this request, he thought it was a good thing, and immediately came to ask Wang Tong. But was reprimanded by Wang Tong, the purpose of the establishment of this insurance bank is to monopolize the infrastructure of the entire Tianjin Wei, the road is completed, in a short period of time it must be for those carpenters, and when the time comes, the money will be collected, if those carpenters build, the road on both sides of the construction will begin, how to calculate the ownership of this road, is not a big trouble.

The reprimanded insurance bank nodded again and again, but he didn't understand it in his heart, thinking that you, Lord Wang, said it on the ground of Tianjin Wei, how dare those carpenter occupy this road at that time, and they will definitely send it over obediently......

The construction of roads, the leveling of land, all kinds of planning, how to do it, how much labor is used, how much money it costs, how much income is expected, all of the same are recorded clearly, and then engraved and printed into a document, and shareholders with a share capital of more than 10,000 taels in the insurance bank will get such a document.

There are also a few copies in the hall of the insurance bank, and small shareholders can also come and check them at any time. If you have any doubts, you have the right to go to the construction site and the account room at any time.

Everything is transparent and open, although many people under Wang Tong don't understand it, thinking that this is an important matter for the official family, why let so many people know, but Wang Tong insisted, everyone can only do it, and the shareholders who still have such and such doubts in their hearts are relieved after seeing this.

Luhai Commercial Bank is the second largest shareholder in addition to Sanjiang Commercial Bank, they were the first to get this detailed report file, after receiving this detailed information, the people who originally moved to live on the ship of Luhai Commercial Bank began to return to the commercial bank, and it seems that their minds have gradually stabilized.

According to the eyeliner report, Luhai Commercial Bank did not know that it was tied up with the wealthy merchant in Beijing at the end of August and the end of September, and a large number of southern cargo hired ships were sent to Beijing.

**************

"Your Majesty, the land is the foundation of the country, and the rest of the taxes are also indispensable, and collecting less than one cent is also harmful to the country, the provincial capitals, prefectures and counties, each has a fixed amount of taxes, but everywhere is to collect less and not collect for the benevolent and virtuous government, put the cart before the horse, the country is damaged, and the minister thinks that the law of assessment should be determined, and those who pay less than eighty percent of the annual tax amount will participate in the impeachment, and the performance of less than eighty percent will not be excellent, if it is so for three years. It is not allowed to be promoted and transferred, what does Your Majesty think? ”

Every two days, the cabinet assistant Zhang Juzheng also has to give tutoring to the Wanli Emperor, one is the son of heaven, the other is supplemented, and naturally there are few political affairs during the class.

The right to propose, what policy opinions, if the Son of Heaven is willing, he can directly form a will, after listening to what Zhang Juzheng said, Emperor Wanli was a little stunned there.

In the past, Fu Zhang Juzheng always said that "there is a fixed number of wealth in the world", "careful investigation must not be omitted, and the traitors will not be blinded", "living within the means", has always made a fuss about the field endowment, why do you want to start with taxes today.

However, the Wanli Emperor reacted quickly, and the Public Security Department recently sent a report saying that Zhang Gelao's close people knew that Zhang Ge Lao was now very concerned about everything in Tianjin Wei, and that the Household Department of Tianjin Wei and the Qing Army Department in Tianjin Wei regularly had to send submissions to him.

The submission is not a spy on the private affairs of officials, but a detailed description of the economic way of Tianjin Wei, after all, Tianjin Wei is now sending gold and silver to the palace every month, ranging from 100,000 to 120,000 yuan per month, and 1.2 million taels or more of money is collected a year. Tianjin Wei itself still maintains a system of nearly 10,000 people, and is still building infrastructure construction, except for the occasional noise of those nonsense officials, the people have never complained, Tianjin Wei still has such an amazing prosperity, and this prosperity is still expanding and rising.

With Zhang Ge's sensitive ears and eyes, he naturally knew that many noble officials in the Beijing Division took money to Tianjin Wei to do business and make profits, among which there were officials who talked about Tianjin Wei villains rampant and the people were bored every day.

Tianjin Wei is such a prosperous state, for the cabinet assistant Zhang Juzheng, who has been suffering from the emptiness of the treasury since the end of Jiajing, and has been working all day long to enrich the treasury and make the treasury rich. How can you not pay attention, how can you not study.

After listening to Zhang Juzheng's words, Emperor Wanli pondered there for a long time, turned his head and glanced at Zhang Cheng before he spoke:

"Mr. Zhang's policy is very good, the community has benefited a lot, and after the cabinet has discussed it, it will be drafted and reported to the celebrant for approval tomorrow!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Zhang Juzheng hurriedly bowed down to give a salute, although this is a formality, but the courtier's duty must be full of etiquette, otherwise someone will find fault with this detail.

Emperor Wanli smiled and nodded, but remembered that when Sun Hai was still there, he didn't care much about Tianjin Wei, and the palace and the foreign court took the opportunity to send a joint investigation team.

The word "impartiality" is a big article, this joint investigation is to investigate and deal with the eggs jumping out of the bones, there is no fault to find the fault, the word impartiality is equivalent to saying that everything is done according to the rules.

The investigation team came back in disgrace, and Zhang Ge didn't make a big fuss, or in the past few months, there has been a lot less news about Tianjin Wei in the court.

If it weren't for the fact that Tianjin Wei had private messages and folds from time to time, Emperor Wanli would gradually feel that Tianjin Wei was fine, and he could rest assured.

Thinking about this joint, Emperor Wanli's expression softened a lot, and Zhang Juzheng picked up the record of Emperor Shizongsu again, ready to speak, Wanli suddenly appeared, the heroic Mr. Zhang, who used to teach his own courses in Yuwangfu, was much older, his temples were white, and there were wrinkles at the corners of his forehead and eyes.

"Your Majesty, let's talk today about Emperor Shizongsu deposing Yan Song and promoting Xu to ...... rank."

"Mr. Zhang, you work hard every day for the country. It takes a lot of energy, Tianjin Wei sent me some old ginseng, it is said that decoction is good for the body, Zhang Banban, wait for the next selection of the top ten bags for Mr. Zhang to bring back. ”

Zhang Cheng was stunned, and hurriedly bowed down to agree, Zhang Juzheng also hurriedly bowed down to thank him, and said with a smile when he straightened up:

"It should be given to that Wang Tong during the trade between Liaozhen and Tianjin Wei!"

This news is not uncommon for Zhang Juzheng to know, Wanli nodded with a smile, Zhang Juzheng shook his head, but there was some helplessness in his tone, and said:

"Qi Jiguang is good at defending, Li Chengliang is good at attacking, Jizhen is guarding Gyeonggi, and a cautious person is needed to preside over the defense, there are many dissenting foreigners around Liaozhen, there is no major trouble, and it is necessary to conquer and deter from time to time, so Li Chengliang's credit is easy, and after a long time, people are lazy, and the mind of accumulating wealth and goods is greater than the mind of this military training."

He sighed with emotion, and then said:

"However, he has nearly 10,000 family members in his hands, including 3,000 elite cavalry, such a strong soldier is enough to protect the safety of Liaozhen for 40 years, and he can do it."

Hearing the word "Jiading", Emperor Wanli felt a little uncomfortable, but since the year of Hongzhi, this has been the norm, and it is also a helpless thing, and he can't say anything, but Zhang Juzheng mentioned another topic:

"Did His Majesty see the excerpt of the Guangdong patrol to impeach Chen Lan, saying that Chen Lan plundered Macao, washed the craftsmen and utensils of those people, and even detained two of the other party's merchant ships, doesn't this mean that the Ming Dynasty has no work and no ship, and has lost face in foreign barbarianism......"
