Section 251 First Patrol of the Territory
The issue of taxation is quite complicated, not only for money, but also for national politics and people's livelihood. If it was before, the white crane would have immediately said a proportion, but now it can't.
"This, let's go back to the capital and discuss it again." Shira-naka did not answer immediately.
Jieji also understood that it was impossible to set this tax at one time, and only said: "Let merchants participate in maritime trade, and this official has three points." First, the interior of the water division should be divided into two, one for the war team and the other for the caravan. The team's profits are small, and how to protect its interests is the first priority of this official. The second is the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a businessman or a common man. If there is a shortcoming, it is the face of the Ming Dynasty that is lost, and the prestige of the Ming Dynasty is lost, and this matter should be reconsidered. ”
"This official supports Lord Jie's article, and there must always be a rule." Hu Hui's support is not a surprise.
With the idea of clear streams, reputation is naturally the most important thing.
"Thank you, Mr. Hu, although this third point is not extremely important, it cannot be ignored. This official mentions yì set up a pass! ”
Set up customs, in the past, it was referred to banknote customs. But at this time, it has the meaning of managing the level.
"Let's call it customs, its first function is to trade customs, and the second function is to inspect prohibited things, in my opinion, don't bring back overseas living things, these things can't help but have something strange. There was a book about an incident in the past. Shirakawaru interjected. Everyone was interested.
The white crane said: "There is a place where there are many wild goats. But there are no wolves, that is, nothing will affect the survival of sheep except humans. But someone brought a few litters of rabbits. The water and grass there were abundant, and after more than ten years, the rabbits there were plagued and thousands of sheep starved to death. There are tens of millions of rabbits, and the number is increasing several times every year. ”
Hahaha!
Several adults in the room laughed, and Yu Qian scolded with a smile: "Minghe, I believe your story must be true." However, this kind of thing does not exist in the Ming Dynasty, let alone tens of millions, if there are really hundreds of millions, I will send an order to send 100,000 troops. So back then, my Ming sergeant could eat meat every day, wasn't it hundreds of millions of rabbits? ”
A black line on one end of a white crane.
The modern age of the posterity. European hairy crabs, rice carp, Australian rabbits, bullfrogs......
"When I didn't say it!" Bai Minghe shook his head helplessly.
Everyone laughed again, and Yu Qian said with a smile: "Okay, the herald will set up a banquet." Your younger brother Bai Minglu also gave me a teacher's courtesy, and I naturally want to meet your father when he arrives in Guangdong. ”
"I'll be with you!" There is nothing against others in saying this. This is also to give the white crane a face. As a white crane, he must be prosperous in the Bai clan. Even if you don't mention these vanities, it is that these days when dealing with Bai Ming Crane, whether it is an official in the same dynasty, or a friend, there is nothing wrong with attending the dust washing banquet for Bai Ming Crane's father.
At the luncheon, Bai Chongxi, Bai Minghe's father, was not only shocked, but also proud.
I think that in a few years, there will definitely be people in Guanzhong who will say that giving birth to a son should be like a famous crane of the Bai family. This is the glory of the Bai family, and it is also the glory of his Bai Chongxi, and he is truly glorifying his ancestors. Luncheon. Bai Chongxi, who had an excellent amount of alcohol, was still drunk, and he was drunk with joy in his heart, because the people who drank with him were all members of the court.
When Bai Chongxi woke up, he felt that his body was shaking slightly.
"Master, you're awake." A young man from the Bai clan was taking care of him.
"Well, I seem to have drunk too much wine. I feel that the ground is shaking. Bai Chongxi said and touched his head.
"Master, we are on a sea ship right now, and the young master is going to Beijing. I heard that after entering Beijing this time. Master Hu, the elder of the Four Dynasties, went to Beijing to stay in Beijing one level later, and Lord Yu also had this intention. So before leaving Guangdong, the young master of the industry here has to take people to inspect it, after all, this is the young master's hard work, and there are some special places that have to leave rules. ”…
"Wu'er ......" Bai Chongxi sighed, and one step further is the official of the sixth grade, or even from the fifth grade.
The nineteen-year-old is a six-grade official, which is equivalent to the position of a state official, and I wonder who in the world can compare.
I am even more proud in my heart.
The ship was a military ship with a wide deck. At this time, the wind and waves were calm, and the white crane and the representatives of the ten major merchant gangs were talking about allowing them to go to sea on their own to do business.
Many rules have not yet been set, and tax regulations have not been set, but these do not affect the enthusiasm of the ten major merchants.
Such a big event, even if there is a year to prepare, is not a long time.
"Coconut oil still needs to be placed in Daming, and it is not suitable to move out at the moment. But the initial processing of coconut fruit is meant by the official overseas, and the people who do the work can be our Ming people, or they can hire locals. For example, the shell, I heard that someone made zuò out of the excellent mattress, sole. It's up to you to decide whether or not to put them overseas. Report to the Yamen of the Guangdong Political Department for review, and come according to the rules. ”
"Lord Bai, can you also put the initial treatment of abaca overseas? Seven or eight out of ten of the abaca seeds shipped back by a ship can only be used as fertilizer materials, and whether it is Fuzhou, Guangzhou, or Qiongdao, the sunshine is not as good as that of Manila Port. "A representative of the Shang Gang made a request.
Bai Minghe didn't speak, since these things were handed over to Guangdong, he would choose to avoid them.
If Guangdong can't make up its mind, there will naturally be messengers to Beijing.
"No, the Port of Manila can't do such a thing. However, it can be placed in North Harbor. "The North Port that Yang Neng refers to is the port of Rawag, which is occupied by the military.
"It's better to put it in Palawan." The white-named crane also gave a mention yì. Then he explained: "In terms of the safe area we currently control, the indigenous population of Palawan is less than 1,000, but the area is several times larger than Fuzhou. There are beautiful mountains and rivers, and there are fields suitable for growing food, so it is not impossible to build a city there, and when it comes to the intensity of the sun, it is summer all year round! If I could spare myself, I would go and stay there for a few months, it was really beautiful. ”
"Then settle there. After returning to Beijing, the official asked for the construction of the city. Hu Huixin said that the place where the white crane can boast must be several times more beautiful than imagined.
Bai Minghe said again: "However, there are many reefs there, so let the sailor's pathfinder be careful and draw a few excellent routes first." There must be a military port there! ”
Yang Neng had a look of sudden realization.
Bai Minghe nodded very strictly, and Yang Neng patted Bai Minghe lightly on the shoulder: "Xiaobai, don't worry, the governor will go there to see it in person." ”
Yang Neng and several other senior officials also heard the meaning of these words. Shira-naka doesn't just pick a random place, it has to be the bridgehead for the next plan. It may even be an important line of defense on the periphery of the South China Sea in the future.
The benefits of the relationship between the merchants. The military cares that they will not be reduced to transport troops in the future, after all, the naval division is a combat unit. What civil officials are concerned about is how to manage, how to educate, and how to promote Ming culture.
Jieji also put forward a request: "Since we want to build a port, then I ask to build a few temples and a few Taoist temples." Whether this expenditure is from the public treasury or private fundraising. ”
"I, the Qin Gang, would like to donate to build a Taoist temple, and I only ask for your lordship's permission for us to invite the Lord. The Qin Gang helped the people, most of them were under the Quanzhen Sect, and the ancient view of our building was destroyed at the end of the Song Dynasty, and it was impossible to regain the prosperity of the year. It's a pity in our hearts! ”
Without waiting for the Qin Gang to finish speaking, someone from the Hui Gang spoke: "We are also disciples of Qi Yun Mountain." "In the history of Hui merchants, there is an inseparable connection with Taoism, walking in the world to have faith to rest assured, Hui merchants are really most of the disciples of Qiyun Mountain, one of the four great immortal mountains of Taoism.
"The Dragon Tiger Gate should also have a view!"
"Hangzhou Lingyin Temple......
"Fujian Nanputuo Temple.........
Jieji mentioned that the original idea of Jianguan was to use faith to influence the local aborigines according to Bai Minghe's ideas, and then use Confucianism to educate them. But who would have thought that it would cause disputes among these merchants, even if it was for silver, trade routes, and supplies, I didn't see them so excited.
Outside the business, who doesn't want to seek stability, the blessing of the gods and Buddhas in Daming is more than a peace of mind. They truly believe that the gods of the world are there, and respecting the gods is also blessing the prosperity of the family. This overseas missionary originally sent out 10,000 Taoists, 10,000 monks, and 10,000 Confucians. It's still in the process of being convened, and it's not officially announced.
As for this overseas preaching, each family also has a somewhat wait-and-see attitude.
But today's revelation of such a mention has stimulated these merchants. They are all devout believers.
"Ahem!" Hu Hu coughed dryly, and the merchants immediately fell silent.
"You will be wrong about what Lord Jie's meant, what Lord Jie's means. For example, the coarse hemp processing workshop was built overseas, and many of them were people from the Ming Dynasty. It is always necessary to build a Taoist temple and a temple so that the gods and Buddhas of the world can also protect our people overseas. ”
"Reveal the righteousness of the lord, we will know the mistake."
A few words, at best, just say it, Hu Hu's words are really good.
"Actually, there is a family in the world. And it is this Buddha that our Ming Buddha is also different from the original Buddha of Tianzhu. Although I am a believer, I believe that Buddhism in the world is also a family. And this is out of the house, I believe that whether it is a god or a Buddha of the Ming Dynasty, he will protect my people of the Ming Dynasty, I believe that when I see the disciples of Buddhism suffering, will I not take action. So since we are outside, don't argue about these, there is a sentence to remember, we are outside, and our hearts are in the Ming. Whether it is the gods or the Buddhas, they will connect our hearts with our families, and the gods and Buddhas are everywhere. ”
On the ability to fool people, as soon as Bai Minghe opened his mouth, even Hu Hu had to say a word.
"Lord Bai, what about the construction of the view?"
"This official will give 10,000 taels of gold, and each of your ten families will have 1,000 taels. If you don't have enough, you can make up for it yourself, and of course you will have special permission to let the sailor bring you some very fine timber from Da Nang. ”
Hearing Bai Minghe say this, everyone was happy.
Everyone saluted in unison: "Thank you, thank you, Lord Bai." ”
