Chapter 167: Mobilization
The turmoil in the capital disappeared after the court discussion, and everything was caused by the fear of sea trade, and the sea trade has now turned into safety, so the run has become meaningless.
These powerful and rich people have high IQs, and they don't need Yang Xin to comfort them with kind words at all, so they automatically give up the run, and even the people who ask for debts don't chase them, and they meet as if nothing has happened, so they say hello warmly and have a smile.
This turmoil came fast, went faster, as if it disappeared overnight without a trace, this is the magic of money, afraid that you will go bankrupt in Haimao, so you will desperately come to the door to ask for debts, once I heard that Haimao can be profitable again, hehe, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it at the time, everyone is still friends, remember to find me again next time you borrow silver!
This kind of thing is very common in high society, just like when a person gains power, everyone rushes to tie the knot, once they lose power, there are many people who fall into the well, it is not human affection, it is not easy for everyone.
Yang Xin didn't care about everything in the capital, and after letting Uncle Tian take over the Fan family's industry in an all-round way, he hurried back to Daxing, he had more important things, Fan Yuxuan was about to give birth, and there was a bigger thing, the whole country was mobilized to attack the Japanese country!
Although he hurried up and rushed back to Laiyang as quickly as possible, he still missed a day before he could catch up, Fan Yuxuan gave birth, and he was still a boy, the mother and son were safe, and the boy was very strong.
The whole Daxing is immersed in festivity and busyness.
On the phoenix bed in the Duanfei Palace, Fan Yuxuan was ruddy, lying on her back, and a baby was sleeping on the side, sleeping quietly.
Yang Xin wanted to hug, but he was afraid of waking up the little guy, so he had to lie on the bed and watch from afar.
"Husband, in two days' court meeting, the palace will also participate!"
Fan Yuxuan said suddenly.
Yang Xin was stunned for a moment and said: "You are still in confinement, don't run around, it's not good to leave any root causes!" ”
Fan Yuxuan insisted: "No, this court meeting is too important, you actually want to pour the country's troops to attack the Japanese country, this is a big gamble, gambling on all the capital of Daxing, the palace must go to the court to watch, I can't believe the princess of the Ming Dynasty!" ”
This was the largest court meeting in Daxing, and all those who could come back came back, except for the sailors in Goryeo, almost all the officials in Daxing, big and small, who could come to Daxing, left their deputies in charge and rushed back to Laiyang.
Fan Yuxuan, who unloaded the goods, was full of passion, and he couldn't wait to take charge of the government while he was still lying on the bed.
Well, it was a big-bellied woman who couldn't be provoked before, but now that she has a son, it seems that she can't be provoked even more, Yang Xin has a premonition that the era of strict wife control is coming in Daxing.
"Go if you want, but don't conflict with the princess, Daxing Business and Qian Zhuang have always been taken care of by the princess, you try not to interfere."
Yang Xin didn't want this tigress who was in a hurry to get out of the cage to fight with the princess as soon as she went out, so she had to take a preventive shot in advance.
Fan Yuxuan glanced at him and said, "You are still so partial, it seems that my son's life in Daxing will not be easy when he grows up." ”
Yang Xin was suddenly shocked and sweating profusely, he was born and used as a shield, and the black-bellied Fan Yuxuan had this recognized son of the Daxing Dynasty in his hands, I was afraid that he would have a lawless rhythm.
"Don't you have Yuxin business, it's a big deal that the newly acquired Fan family property will also be handed over to you for management, I'll explain it to Uncle Tian when I go back, and let him listen to your command, but don't mess around, the acquisition is the industry of the Daxing Imperial Court, and all the people have a share."
Fan Yuxuan was overjoyed, she had always wanted to get involved in Daxing business, but the princess held it in her hands from the beginning, those veteran nationals were used to the management of the princess from scratch, and most of them were not close to Fan Yuxuan, and Yang Xin had always ignored this kind of behavior, so she naturally had no chance.
Now that Yang Xin opened his mouth to let Uncle Tian accept his jurisdiction, it was an excellent opportunity to enter the Daxing firm, you must know that Uncle Tian was the first shopkeeper of the Daxing firm, and his status was higher than that of Aunt Chen.
Fan Yuxuan excitedly hugged Yang Xin's neck, kissed him on the face, and said: "Husband is so good, the Fan family's property originally belonged to the palace, and it is appropriate for the palace to take care of it, the palace has always done this before, and I know the situation inside." ”
Yang Xin heard it in a cold sweat and said, "Okay, don't mess around, this is the property of the imperial court, don't treat it as your own family business like before." ”
Fan Yuxuan twisted her body and said coquettishly: "Got it, long-winded!" ”
Yang Xin got goosebumps when he saw it, he was most afraid of seeing Fan Yuxuan coquettish, she was originally an ice beauty's character, this coquettishness, how to look at it, twisted.
Three days later, the Great Pilgrimage will arrive as promised.
Fan Yuxuan prepared for this all night, and the next day, dressed up to attend, all three princesses attended this time, because to mobilize the army of Goryeo, the full cooperation of Goryeo is required, and Jin Lianmei is of great use, so she was also brought to the court by Yang Xin to show her attention.
According to the usual practice, Bai Youcai reported on the progress of various major events in Daxing recently.
The development of Daxing is lackluster, the whole country is developing commerce, the domestic operation is stable, the only bright spot, is the rise of maritime trade, has turned Weihai into the most prosperous port city in the country, has become the whole of China's porcelain, silk and tea distribution center.
"Xingwang, there are many big merchants from all over the country who have come to Weihai to set up workshops near Weihai to produce porcelain, silk and tea, but most of them are the last steps to be completed, and the raw materials and semi-finished products are still not mainly produced in Daxing."
When Bai Youcai said this, Yang Xin waved his hand to interrupt.
"Wait, in this case, we should strengthen the control of these merchants, this king has decided to open a futures exchange in Weihai to carry out forward transactions of porcelain, silk, and tea!"
As soon as Yang Xin said this, the entire court was quiet, and his new term, the ministers had never heard of it at all!
Bai Youcai's eyes widened and asked, "King Xing, what do you mean by this futures exchange, and how should we operate it?" ”
Yang Xin glanced at the court, the two leaders of the Daxing business were not there, Tian Laobo was dealing with the eight imperial merchants in the capital, and Chen Damiang was presiding over the sea trade in Goryeo, which was the most important place in Daxing at present, and there were more than ten shopkeepers left behind in the court.
So he said to Bai Youcai: "I forgot, you are not familiar with this, but someone is familiar with it, the Cheng shopkeeper of the Daxing business came out, you participated in the last time in Nanjing to fry grain stamps, and you and the Zhang family of Daxing Qianzhuang are responsible for this matter." ”
Cheng Zhang and the others stood up, they said they were very confused, and listened to Yang Xin's orders.
Yang Xin thought for a while and said: "This matter is too complicated, tomorrow the two of you will come to the palace to find me, I will give you special training on how to operate, the overall is similar to the last speculation of food stamps, Bai Youcai, you sent someone to build a good venue for the exchange of Cheng Shopkeeper near the most prosperous street in Weihai, it should be high-end, atmospheric and high-grade, the exchange operates independently, is not controlled by anyone, and is directly responsible to the king!" ”
The three of them took the promise and made the promise.
Today's focus is on sending troops to the country, Yang Xin does not want to waste time on this, but the exchange is very important to Yang Xin, this matter can not be delayed because of the war, Daxing business is developed, but there is no industry, this is very deadly, no industry is a tree without roots, it is difficult to achieve rapid development, Yang Xin is too fast, there is no time and energy to invest manpower and material resources in industry, which needs to be slowly boiled industry, otherwise, he will not develop Daxing into this in just two years.
The establishment of the exchange can, to a certain extent, control the production of these three commodities that are not in the territory of Daxing through financial means, so it is a vital link to the current Daxing.
Of course, the exchange he said is completely different from later generations, there is no remote communication means such as computers in this era, so it can only gather big businessmen, rich people to come to the scene to match transactions, ordinary people have no chance to participate, because the silver is too little, Yang Xin does not have so many people to deal with them.
Well, the highlight of Bai Youcai's entire report, that is, Weihai has become a bustling port city, and then it is Xu Sheng's turn, as soon as his report came out, Yang Xin immediately heard the problem.
"Xu Sheng, in the recent period, Daxing has developed steadily, why does private silver deposits not increase but fall, and it has decreased by as much as five million taels!"
Xu Sheng was suddenly covered with cold sweat, and said hesitantly: "King Huixing, this Weichen is not very clear, maybe they use the silver to do sea trade, or other businesses, and recently, various commercial activities of the people in Daxing have also developed very rapidly. ”
Yang Xin frowned, this reason is a bit far-fetched, Yang Xin is very clear in the accounts of Haimao, and the landlords who joined Li Anbo and others are headed by poison pills, and they are far from reaching five million taels so exaggerated, at most more than one million, and Daxing is developing so fast, it is estimated that the growth of private private silver deposits in a few months alone will not be lower than this amount, and it can completely cover the reduced silver deposits.
"Go back and check it out for this king! As the chief treasurer of Daxing Bank, you don't even know where such a large-scale loss of silver is going, what is the use of you? ”
It is rare for Yang Xin to speak so harshly to Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said, "Yes, my subordinates will go back and check!" ”
Yang Xin nodded and said, "Get up, and then report!" ”
Yang Xin is quite sensitive to the financial market, Xu Sheng, as the general manager of Daxing Qianzhuang, in his eyes, is the central bank governor of later generations, and he must know the flow of money in the entire Daxing.
"So far, a total of 1,200 overseas shares have been added to Goryeo, and the investment fee of 15 million taels has been handed over to the state treasury and deposited in Daxing Qianzhuang."
Xu Sheng continued.
Yang Xin's eyes suddenly lit up again, and he smiled: "I didn't expect the Korean people to be so rich?" It's a bit unexpected by this king, Li Zong only bought a hundred shares before, and the total of the court can't exceed three hundred, how can it be added so quickly? ”
Above the court, only Yang Xin felt that this number was a bit unexpected, and his reaction was flat, and no one expressed surprise.
Fan Yuxuan immediately realized that there must be something inside, glanced at the ministers, and gave Yang Xin a look.
Yang Xin understood, looked at the court, and suddenly understood, such a huge data, fifteen million, no one in the court was shocked, recalling the inexplicable reduction of private deposits just now, Yang Xin is very sensitive to silver, and compared the two, he found a problem, and finally found a super bug in his own policy, these Daxing people must have taken the road of saving the country by curve, through the Korean people to buy Daxing's overseas shares, so that they can break the rule that their national holdings can not exceed three shares.
Yang Xin was shocked into a cold sweat, and said that the ancients stood up stupidly and saw that Lao Tzu would not kill you.
The IQ of these people exceeds Yang Xin's expectations, as long as they have flaws, they will be exploited, the key is that he has no remedy, for Goryeo, he can't be like Daxing, asking overseas shares to hold no more than three shares, if he does that, he will not be able to win over the monarchs and ministers of Goryeo, no matter how poor the king of Goryeo is, he also looks down on the three shares of more than 30,000 taels of silver, so that Daxing can not bind the monarchs and ministers of Goryeo to his chariot.
No wonder Xu Sheng didn't know the reason for the loss of private deposits just now, he didn't know it, but he didn't dare to say it, and if he said it, he would be angry.
Yang Xin was united by his subordinates for the first time, and his heart was as uncomfortable as eating flies, but he didn't dare to turn his face with them at this time, and he enforced it, his poison pills were eaten too much and too quickly, and the side effects at this time had begun to appear, and even Xu Sheng didn't dare to say it, indicating that the bare-ass people were also heavily involved, and the court had already formed a line, and Yang Xin could only eat Yellow Lotus dumbly, acquiescing.
However, he was not so easy to speak, so he thought about it and said: "This time to go to the Wa Kingdom, in order to stimulate morale and launch the whole people to prepare for war, this king decided to book 2,000 national qualifications in advance, and all those who have made significant contributions in this war, focusing on military merits, people's livelihood logistics support and other departments are also qualified, workshops that produce arms, Daxing businesses that provide logistics materials, and cadres of local yamen are all eligible to obtain!" ”
2,000 national qualifications, equivalent to 2,000 shares, and the entire Goryeo overseas shares are only 1,000 and two, Yang Xin wants to increase the number of bare-ass nationals to hedge against the landlords' poison through the Koreans' secret increase in Daxing shares.
The ministers looked at each other, but just now they clearly felt that Yang Xin had already known that he had secretly increased his holdings, but he did not attack, which meant that Yang Xin had given in, so he couldn't go too far, after all, the war of the Wa Kingdom was related to the life and death of Daxing, and the interests of the Wa State were far from being comparable to the poor Goryeo.
Li Anbo thought for a while, stood up and said, "The old minister agrees with King Xing's opinion!" ”
The rest of the landlords have seconded the proposal, and the bare-ass people have nothing to say, they have already raised their hands in agreement.
Yang Xin looked at the princess and Li Xiangjun on the side, the two looked as usual, without any fluctuations, Yang Xin shook his head in his heart, these two people are more suitable for making a vase, the princess can manage a little money, but can't look at the big money, Li Xiangjun is a little exaggerated, like other Confucian students in this era, especially like Shi Kefa, he is upright, but he can't grasp the key to the matter.
The monarchs and ministers of Daxing have secretly traded and competed, and even Fan Yuxuan, who has not been in the court for a long time, can see that these two vases that have been in control of the government for a long time are still in a state of confusion.
At this time, Bai Youcai stood up and said: "King Xing is right, the war is about logistics and money, and it is very important for our civil and political system to contribute, so Weichen suggested that at least half of the quota should be given to us, and it can't always be to improve the number of people in the army, since the founding of the country, the speed at which the army has increased its citizens is too fast!" ”
Daniel Zhang immediately quit, and quickly stood up, "Lord Bai said this, now in troubled times, without military escort, all economic prosperity is just a passing cloud, as soon as the enemy army comes, the country is ruined, what else to talk about?" ”
Yang Xin frowned when he heard this, as soon as his words came out, it evolved into a competition for rewards, Bai Youcai, one article and one martial arts, the two leaders did not hesitate to come out to fight, this kind of thing must be fought for by the boss, otherwise he will be scolded to death by the people below when he goes back, and it is inevitable no matter what.
People on both sides continued to come out to second, Yang Xin decisively waved his hand to stop it, and said: "What you said makes sense, both civil and military sides are important, but the role of the army is greater in the war, in this way, the quota army occupies six layers, and the rest is handed over to the civil government. ”
Li Xiangjun's character Yang Xin still believes in it, and it is most suitable for her to do this kind of thing, to be a fair referee.
After chatting for a long time, Li Xiangjun finally had the task, this first assistant is estimated to be the same as Shi Kefa, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, who has been marginalized by the court, and can only deal with some daily affairs in the corners, and has no say in major matters at all.
Li Xiangjun was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and promised, finally having a bit of the authority of the first assistant, and was naturally overjoyed.
Yang Xin's order, both civil and military, have no opinion, Yang Xin has a strong control over the military, they are used to obedience, and Wenzheng can get the fourth layer this time is far higher than before, naturally very satisfied.
Then there are the specific subordinates, the whole mobilization plan is very complicated, involving all aspects of Daxing, all affairs have to make way for this matter, even the fourth battalion Guan Changfeng's army that was making trouble in Shandong was also transferred back, Yang Xin directly handed over the 10,000 mercenaries with poor military discipline records recruited before to Guan Changfeng, Guan Changfeng couldn't close his mouth with a smile, in this way, his fourth battalion suddenly increased to 14,000, although the number of people was less than the other four battalions, but the difference was not as big as the original.
There are currently five battalions in Daxing, the first, second, third, and fifth battalions are all 16,000 people, the fourth battalion is 14,000, a total of 80,000, plus Yang Xin's personal battalion of 5,000, a total of 85,000 people.
"This king has decided to leave one battalion in Daxing, and all the other armies will go out to conquer the Wa Kingdom!"
Yang Xin firmly said, the country of the Japanese is a place where the traveler must attack, this is a feud, Yang Xin has always believed that the traveler who does not fight the country is not a good traveler.
