With the arrival of Hong Qingquan, Zhang Ke finally knew about the changes in the capital, and he was also scared into a cold sweat.

Chen Ju helped Zhang Ke at a critical moment, and finally stabbed the case to Wanli, and Wanli was also ready to investigate Liaodong thoroughly.

But at the critical time, Concubine Zheng ran to Wanli's dormitory and cried bitterly.

Speaking of this Zheng Guifei, she is definitely not a simple character, just take one thing, it is enough to see her shrewdness, the emperor has always been in the morning and evening, and no matter how beautiful a woman is, she is rarely favored for a long time.

However, Concubine Zheng Guifei has occupied Wanli's heart for a long time since she was canonized as a concubine in the tenth year of Wanli, and this relationship has been maintained until Wanli died, and when Wanli died, she was canonized as the queen.

Moreover, because of Zheng Guifei's son Fuwang Zhu Changxun, Wanli and the ministers launched a long-term dispute over the country's capital, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister was almost broken.

can maintain the husband and wife love with the emperor for thirty or forty years, and let the emperor go to war with the ministers for her, Zheng Guifei is not unintelligent!

Wanli, who had been ill for a long time, heard Zheng Guifei coming and reluctantly struggled to sit up.

When Concubine Zheng saw Wanli, she immediately lost her voice in pain.

"Your Majesty, your concubine is so sick that your concubine is so heartbroken!" Tears rolled down as he spoke.

Wanli sighed: "Aifei, who can not be sick, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Concubine Zheng wiped her tears and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine heard that you are going to thoroughly investigate the imperial merchants in Liaodong, I don't know if there is such a thing?" ”

Chen Ju, who was waiting on the side, suddenly trembled with fright, how could the concubine interfere!

After all, the old eunuch was used to seeing wind and rain, and he couldn't help but be surprised in a hurry.

Wanli frowned, but still said: "Not only the imperial merchants, but also the ministers of civil and military affairs, and the eunuchs of the inner court, I have to investigate, and I must also find out, Salhu has failed fiascoly, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers have died, and I can't help but give them an explanation." ”

Concubine Zheng sighed softly: "Your Majesty, you don't stop any concubines, it's just that the concubines heard that the imperial merchant smuggled to the old slave in order to supply furs and Dongzhu to the palace." Once the investigation is carried out with great fanfare, what will the courtiers below think? They will say that the concubines in the palace are greedy and ignorant, ignoring state affairs, and are the disasters that bring disaster to the country and the people. ”

"Are they talking about the people in the palace? They are saying that you are the king of the dead country! The concubines only asked His Majesty to let go of the imperial merchants and the people in the palace when they were investigated. The concubines knew that His Majesty was selfless, but those courtiers would attack His Majesty and insult the Holy Ming, and the concubines looked distressed......"

If you don't say it's a pillow person, Concubine Zheng Guifei has seen Wanli through, this emperor has been pressed by Zhang Juzheng for ten years since he was a child, and he doesn't even trust the courtiers because of his disgust with the ministers! Then the protracted dispute over the national capital broke out!

Although it ended with Zhu Changluo being appointed as the crown prince, there was also an irreparable gap in the relationship between the monarch and the minister.

On the other hand, Wanli's health is getting worse and worse, and the palace has begun to bet on it. Although the ancestor Chen Ju is still wholeheartedly loyal to Wanli, his subordinates have more or less stood with the prince, and the Manchu Dynasty Wenchen is also on this side.

As for Wang Hailin, the prince of the factory, he has another thought, he bets on Zheng Guifei, if King Fu can ascend the throne, he is the head of the inner court, one person and ten thousand people.

In order to curry favor with Concubine Zheng, Wang Hailin sent most of the property looted from Liaodong to Concubine Zheng. Because of this, when she got the news, Concubine Zheng had to come forward.

Check it, as long as you check the affairs of Liaodong, a basin of dirty water will be deducted on Zheng Guifei's head. Speaking of which, Wang Hailin and Jin Wanguan's methods are the same, they are both transferring the crisis, but Wang Hailin's hand is more ruthless!

After listening to Concubine Zheng's words, Wanli was silent, staring at this woman who had been with him for forty years with his two eyes! Concubine Zheng Guifei was also uncomfortable with these eyes, as if all secrets had been seen through.

However, Zheng Guifei is not afraid, she believes that the relationship in the past forty years has become more and more qiē. Wanli will definitely bow his head in front of her.

Sure enough, Wanli let out a long sigh, "Go ahead, I will take care of the affairs of Liaodong." ”

Concubine Zheng was finally relieved, got up and left, Wanli stared at her figure, and disappeared from sight.

"Alas! It is said that the heavenly family is ruthless, forty years of husband and wife, forty years! She still thinks about herself, not about my country! I, the monarch's father, is ashamed of the people of Liaodong, the sky is disgusted, the sky is disgusted! ”

After Wanli finished shouting this sentence, his eyes rolled and he fainted!

……

"Yongzhen, the master's dragon body is getting worse and worse, if Liaodong is investigated, down to the civil and military officials, and up to the inner court palace, it will be a chicken and a dog jumping, and the implication will be widespread, but I'm afraid it won't work!"

Hong Qingquan didn't hide anything from Zhang Ke, and said directly: "But the master also said that honest officials can't go unpunished, and stupid and incompetent people can't go unpunished." Master Shihong was appointed as the deputy envoy of the inspector, Xue Guoyong was appointed as the governor of Liaodong, and Zhou Yongchun and Ge Chunfang were both transferred to Nanjing, and the two rats were gently let go, which was really cheap for them! ”

Zhang Ke also guessed that it was difficult for Wanli to make drastic reforms, and it was already good to be able to do this.

As soon as the teacher took office, he took a step forward and became the deputy envoy of the inspectorate, and the next step was to hope for the impact of the governor, or even the strategy. If the Liaodong region was the fastest place to be promoted in the Ming Dynasty, otherwise how could that Shaowu County Commander be promoted to a high-ranking official in just a few years! How can there be the capital to harm Liaodong!

Hong Fu is one step higher, plus Wang Huazhen of Guangning, Zhang Ke has these two big arms to help, and his waist is also stiff, seize the time, train and make meritorious contributions, maybe he really has the ability to change the fate of Liaodong!

Seeing Zhang Ke's relief, Hong Qingquan said with a smile: "Yongzhen, thanks to your method, you have moved the ancestor and the master, for so many years, the ancestor has not taken the risk of offending people and spoke for others, you are the first!" ”

Zhang Ke hurriedly said: "The heavens and the earth are generous, I really don't know how to repay Gonggong Chen, or I will build a new word for his old man and worship sincerely every day......"

"Don't!"

Hong Qingquan glared at Zhang Ke fiercely, and scolded with a smile: "The ancestor helped you value your talent, and even more importantly, the idea of one million taels of silver a year, can you earn it?" ”

"Well, it will work!"

Zhang Ke said categorically: "Gonggong Hong, I have already analyzed it in the letter, and I have the difference between the gold and silver price of the Ming Dynasty and the outside, and this difference is the basis for making money." In addition, there are not a few businessmen living overseas in the Ming Dynasty, and there are 20,000 or 30,000 long-term businessmen living in the Nagasaki area of Japan alone. ”

"Oh!" Hong Qingquan couldn't help but be taken aback.

"Yongzhen, the sea is rough, nine deaths, how can so many people go on adventures?"

Looking at Hong Qingquan's surprised appearance, Zhang Ke secretly shook his head, in the eyes of most people in the Ming Dynasty, they still talked about the change of color of the sea, but they didn't know that the ocean was the source of future wealth!

"Father-in-law Hong, now that the navigation technology has improved a lot, there are not many deaths, not to mention that at the beginning of the country, Father-in-law Zheng He led the fleet to the Western Ocean seven times, if he really dies for a lifetime, can he come back alive?"

Hearing this, Gonggong Hong couldn't help but scratch his head, indeed Zheng He was an example for these eunuchs, and when he thought of the great achievements of his predecessors, Hong Qingquan was also a little enthusiastic.

"Yongzhen, do you want the palace to organize a fleet to go to Japan to exchange for gold?"

"Of course not!" Zhang Ke said with a smile: "Large-scale dispatch of fleets, one type of investment is large, and the other will also make people chew the root of their tongues." If the palace wants to make money, why is it so troublesome, just a name is enough. Ming Royal! Four words, a thousand dollars do not change! ”

Zhang Ke said impassionedly, but Hong Qingquan was still full of disbelief.

"Yongzhen, if the brand in the palace is easy to use, it will not be all over the world to send mine supervisors and tax supervisors!"

"Father-in-law, don't hide it, don't look at the real money in the mine, but the degree of making money is still too slow, and it is tiring and tiring, and it is really not worth it!"

Hong Qingquan snorted: "Boy, don't talk big, hurry up and talk about your method, we want to see, where is your cleverness?" ”

"Hahaha, Gonggong Hong, there is trade between Daming and Japan, and there are so many merchants in Japan, but every time goods come and go, they have to carry a large amount of gold and silver. The sea is stormy, and there are pirates, once you are robbed, you want to cry without tears. Nowadays, many money bank ticket numbers in Daming have the business of redeeming huàn, and when they are trafficked for long distances, they can hold silver tickets, which is easy and safe. ”

Hong Qingquan was also very keen, and when he heard Zhang Ke say this, he hurriedly said: "What do you mean to let the palace handle the ticket number in Japan!" ”

"My father-in-law sees that maritime merchants who have crossed the ocean and do business in foreign lands need safety and credit the most. If the Daming Royal Bank is established in Japan, it will be aimed at the royal gold signboard, and all the merchants will obediently send gold and silver to exchange for silver bills to do business between China and Japan. After the bank hoarded gold and silver, it also established a network of relationships in Japan, and I could exchange it for gold and silver and make a lot of profits. ”

Hong Qingquan listened to Zhang Ke's words, the more he listened, the more he breathed, and Wanli and Chen Ju also discussed Zhang Ke's plan in the palace, they thought that there were two troubles, the first was the cost problem, and the second was afraid of attracting criticism from all sides.

Zhang Ke's words solved all the two problems, established the Royal Bank, absorbed the gold and silver, and had the capital, and this bank naturally became the best umbrella, if there was really trouble, the palace could also say that it did not know.

The more Hong Qingquan thought about it, the more perfect he felt, and he danced with his hands.

"Okay, it's really good, the bank makes money, plus gold and silver to huàn, there should be no problem sending millions of silver to the palace a year! Yongzhen, you are really a genius, so do you want to go into the palace to do things? ”

Hong Qingquan blurted out, so frightened that Zhang Ke hurriedly lowered his head and glanced between his legs.

"Father-in-law Hong, the little one hasn't gotten married yet, besides, I'm afraid of pain!"

Hong Qingquan laughed: "What do you think, our family is asking you to do things for the palace, be an imperial businessman, and be in charge of the royal bank!" ”

Joke! If it is peaceful and prosperous, it will be okay for Lao Tzu to be a rich businessman, when will I not join in the fun!

"Father-in-law, although the little one has offered a strategy, but I don't understand the ticket number, the second doesn't understand business, and the third doesn't understand Japan, I think it's better to find a more suitable person!"

Hong Qingquan said with a calm face: "You kid just don't want to go overseas for adventures!" Our family won't force you anymore, the appointment of the imperial court has come down. ”

Hong Qingquan slapped his face, and someone brought in a lot of things in the official uniform, the body, and the letter.

"This is your imperial seal letter, as well as the hereditary thousand households' confession, take it well!"

When Zhang Ke saw it, his eyes immediately straightened, and he finally became an official! It's so easy to become a thousand households! Holding the heavy copper seal, Zhang Ke couldn't help grinning.

"Grandpa Hong, I'm not dreaming!"

Hong Qingquan looked at his unproductive appearance, and snorted coldly: "What else do you want, Zhang Yongzhen, do you know that it is only three or five thousand taels of silver to buy a reserve!" You kid spent a million taels a year, and our family feels sorry for you! ”
