The old front foot of the Li clan has just left.

Yingcheng has not returned to the house to rest.

The elders of the Meng clan came to Fusu Mansion.

The person who came was the elder of the Meng clan.

It holds most of the Montessori voice.

"The foreign minister visits the prison country!" The old man of the Meng clan smiled and visited Yingcheng.

"Meng Qing doesn't have to be polite." Yingcheng greeted with a smile.

High officer!

This is a title that only the First Emperor can use when facing important officials of the imperial court.

He called it like this, which was not a transgression, but a sign of respect for Montessori.

In the state of Qin.

There are two nobles who will not be shaken no matter what happens.

Even if these two nobles rebelled, they still had a pivotal position in the Qin State.

One is the Pinyang Wang family.

The other is Montessori.

This is not to say that because there are people like Wang Qian, Wang Ben, Wang Li, Meng Fu, Meng Wu, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi as "powerful ministers", the Wang family and the Meng family will never decay.

It is because these two families themselves represent a group second only to the Win family.

Wang's family, from the Zhou prince Jin lineage, thousands of clansmen, since Wang Jian started, the Wang clan has migrated to Pinyang in a large area.

Mengshi, originated from the nobility of Qi State, Qi State declined, Mengshi clan was targeted by Meng Weijun, Mengfu fled from Qi State and was valued by King Zhaoxiang and entrusted with important tasks, and the Mengshi clan moved to Sanchuan County.

So far.

The Mengshi and Wang clans became the new source of soldiers of the Qin State after the Mengxibai clan.

Wang Fu is right.

The children of the Wang family shed their blood for the Qin State, and every inch of land was inch.

The same is true for Montessori children.

Meng Tian is the same age as Meng Yi and Fusu, but he can be in a high position, also because Meng Shi has given everything to the Qin State in the past fifty years.

Just as Wang Li's military talent is not outstanding, but he can lead an army alone.

As soon as I saw Yingcheng.

The old man of the Meng clan smiled and smiled, and he was as close as he wanted.

If you really count it in terms of seniority.

The one in front of him is still his great-great-uncle and the grandfather of his second aunt Meng Jia.

And Meng Jia also has two younger sisters, an older sister, and two younger brothers.

This is also a relative.

"Even so, the foreign minister is no longer polite." After the elder of the Meng clan sat down and briefly exchanged a few words with Yingcheng, he said:

"It's not a secret, Montessori is also a big family in Sanchuan County, although there are no 10,000 households, but there are a lot of generations."

"Montessori naturally has no objections to the decision of the prison state."

Yingcheng naturally knew what the Meng clan elder meant by what he said.

In the process of finding a way out, the Mengshi set their sights on the fertile Guanzhong Plain, and wanted to rent Zheng Guoqu for 80,000 yuan of gold.

In a narrow sense, the Guanzhong Plain is actually just a plain west of Xianyang, north of Weishui, and north of the Jing River.

Weishui is low, Jingshui is high, but the Guanzhong Plain is in the middle, but it is blocked by mountains and rivers, even if the Guanzhong Plain is located between the confluence of rivers in the past, it can only rely on the sky to eat.

Don't look at Xianyang Lake on the Guanzhong Plain, but in fact, the water of Xianyang Lake can't reach the Guanzhong Plain.

And Zheng Guoqu, with a huge S-shape, connects Jingshui with the Guanzhong Plain, which is why there is a fertile field in Guanzhong.

And the Guanzhong Plain, which also surrounds Zheng Guoqu, has become a real 10,000-hectare fertile land.

This is not an imaginary number.

It is 1.54 million acres of high-quality paddy fields in the real sense.

These 10,000 hectares of paddy fields, with Zhengguoqu as the core, have become the largest production area in Guanzhong.

What Montessori wants is these thousands of acres of paddy fields.

"Montessori strictly obeyed the arrangement of the prison state, and the food and fields were all included in the collective agriculture." The elder of the Mengshi continued: "However, the Mengshi also purchased more than 700 workshops of the imperial court, not only in Xianyang, but also in Jibei, Longxi, Beidi and other places, and even in the workshops in Jiangdong, the Mengshi are also slightly involved. ”

"Among them, because Hu Xiu wantonly sold Hu's industry, Montessori purchased forty percent of Hu's."

Yingcheng nodded.

And there was no response.

Many truths in this world do not make sense, because there is no reason at all.

Hu Xiu broke his head and wanted to change his identity, and was willing to give up Hu's huge business empire for the position of the right director of the Department of Commerce.

Although there are many adulterated elements in this, it cannot be doubted that Hu Xiu has the right to speak in Hu's firm.

As for Montessori, he is already abandoning his official career as a businessman, because at the official level, Montessori is going one step further, which is to rebel against himself as emperor.

It is necessary and inevitable that if Montessori wants to continue to develop, it must engage in business, or, feudal state.

Unless Montessori is beheaded, it is unstoppable.

At this point, he did not stop, and even vigorously promoted the matter.

If you don't properly deal with nobles like Montessori and Wang, you will definitely suffer in the future.

And instead of letting these people control the land and the population, let these people go into business.

This is a helpless move.

Just as he made a mistake, everyone would leave it to the First Emperor to make decisions in advance, rather than solving them according to the laws of Great Qin.

The same is true of Montessori, Wang.

If the Great Qin Xungui has a rank, the Wang family, the Mengshi family, and the Yang family are in the first order.

Li's, Feng's, and Mi's are the second sequence.

However, Feng Quji, Li Si, and Wang Jian are different, and the two of them have their own control of the Legalist, the farmer, and the soldier.

This kind of inheritance is different from family inheritance.

Li Si is trying his best to maintain Li Zhan as the leader of the new generation of Legalists, but whether he can succeed depends on Li Zhan's talent in law and whether he can beat the Legalists.

Even, Feng Quji basically gave up the competition for the leader of the peasant family, and Wang Jian gave up the competition for the leader of the military family.

Wang Qian's status in the army is more like being blessed by his own military exploits and Wang Qian's blessing.

And at this time.

The elder of the Meng clan was more like a report and asked him about his attitude further.

If he can't accept Montessori's control of the world's workshops, and Montessori can't accept his arrangement under trade-offs, the outcome is self-evident.

The elder of the Meng clan continued: "There are all walks of life, mainly shops, among which silk and satin, salt, and furniture are mainly sold. ”

This is a confession.

Other words.

Montessori has selected three of the most profitable industries among the many industries.

Silk is even close to the value of a coin.

And this also released another message, as long as the imperial court has no opinion, Montessori has communicated with the Wang family and the Feng family, and the salt industry produced by the Second Salt Industry Commercial Company will be sold by the Montessori store.

This is not talking about commodity trading.

Rather, it is a bulk shipment with bells as the unit of measurement.

And this.

To be precise, it is the interests that the imperial court gave up and surrendered to the nobles.

In the past, the Hu firm controlled these three major industries, and it was closer to the direct operation of the imperial court.

It can only be said.

There are pros and cons.

Listen carefully.

Yingcheng nodded and said, "No matter who runs these industries, the imperial court will not directly send officials to control them. ”

"In the past, the business environment of Hu's, Wu's, and Zhuo's will be gradually eliminated until it is abolished."

"Even the imperial court sold the smelting workshops and allowed them to smelt and make copper and iron."

Ying Cheng paused and continued, "However, this does not mean that the imperial court has completely abandoned the restraint on commerce. ”

"On the contrary, the imperial court is encouraging commerce in a more drastic way."

"Why do you say strictly, in the future, all transactions in the world must be recorded in the transaction book, the Department of Commerce will enter a shop at will, check the transaction book, start from the source, check against it, if there is no record, it is contraband, and the investigation is a crime."

"I won't elaborate much on the book of transactions."

Hearing this, the elder of the Meng clan nodded and said, "The foreign minister understands!" ”

Yingcheng nodded and continued: "And even more severe is the Commercial Bureau, all the commercial houses are semi-official businessmen, and the imperial court will not interfere with the operation of any commercial house workshop, however, the Commercial Administration can issue a commercial office order to adjust the commercial structure, which is not aimed at any one, but out of the strategic requirements of the imperial court, the commercial industry in the world is forced to adjust, and the business involved must be unconditionally obeyed. ”

When the old man of the Meng clan heard this, he paused slightly, and couldn't help asking, "Then under what conditions will this commercial decree be issued?" ”

That's what he wanted to know.

So far, the Department of Commerce has not issued a Commercial Order, and the Commercial Order is only stipulated in the Commercial Law, and there is no clear provision.

This has a big impact.

All of Montessori's net worth is bet on business, and once it is adjusted, it will not be tens of thousands of dollars that can be lost densely.

Yingcheng replied without thinking: "The order of the Commercial Administration must be discussed by the Great Court. ”

"When there is an imbalance in a certain industry or I need something in Daqin, a commercial order will be issued."

"There is no definition, let's put it this way, the imperial court is releasing the smelting workshop, in the normal operation, in addition to weapons, coins, etc., other copper and iron objects such as agricultural tools, iron pots, copper and iron pillars, hoes and other copper and iron objects, are completely free to make."

"Once the imperial court is in short supply of weapons, it will issue a merchant decree to force all smelting workshops to build weapons and hand them over to the imperial court."

"And now, copper and iron ploughs are scarce in the world, and after weighing them, the imperial court will issue an order to force all smelting workshops to make copper and iron ploughs."

The old man of the Meng clan frowned, and asked again, "What about this loss?" ”

Yingcheng said with a smile: "Don't lose money or lose capital, once the commercial order is issued, don't think about making money, all resources will be concentrated around the commercial order." ”

The elder of the Meng clan paused and said, "The foreign minister understands!" ”

Yingcheng nodded and continued, "Of course, the imperial court encourages commercial development. ”

"As long as it operates legally within the transaction book, the imperial court will not interfere, and it will develop wherever it wants, and develop it as it wants."

"Let's put it this way, even if your Montessori annexes all the workshops in the world, the imperial court will not interfere and suppress it."

"Of course, Montessori's desire to annex the world's workshops is tantamount to wishful thinking."

"I can't do it if I give Montessori a thousand times the financial resources."

"The minister understands!" The Meng clan is old, and it is impossible to swallow the world's workshops, otherwise, he would not have come to Yingcheng here to inquire nervously, as for what Yingcheng said, he didn't believe it.

A vivid example of Hu's firm, he doesn't think that Hu Xiu voluntarily gave up Hu's huge business empire in order to be an official.

"Ahem!" The elder of the Meng clan couldn't help coughing twice, knowing what he wanted to know, he couldn't help but ask again: "Prison country, the foreign minister still has doubts, it's just!" ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Yingcheng Road.

"I heard!" The old man of the Meng clan groaned slightly, and said: "I heard that now there is countless money in the treasury, but it does not move at all, and the foreign ministers want to think about it, and these money can only be as in the past, and the court supervises various workshops. ”

"The foreign ministers have also heard a little about the affairs of Mataili, and if the court uses this to make money, I am afraid it will be a little inappropriate."

"But now that the system has been restructured, the foreign minister really can't think of any use for this money."

Yingcheng looked at the old man of the Meng clan, shook his head and smiled: "I'm afraid Meng Qing is not ignorant, but pretending to be ignorant!" ”

"Huh!" The elder of the Meng clan smiled not embarrassed at all, "The foreign minister doesn't dare to overstep!" ”

Yingcheng smiled and said, "There's nothing that can't be said about this, just as you think." ”

"However, don't think about this money, you don't have your share!"

"This!" The elder of the Meng clan hesitated for a moment and said, "We are also the law-abiding people of Great Qin, Prison Country!" ”

Yingcheng said: "Don't tell me, your Mengshi has only been in my Qin Kingdom for fifty years, and you have saved 80,000 Eridium gold, so your family background is really rich!" ”

"I remember that among the 80,000 Eridium gold medals of the Montessori family, there is a gold cup three feet high, and it is engraved with the honor of the world!"

"It was a thing from the time of Duke Qi Heng, and it was respected as a cup of glory by the kings of Qi in all dynasties, and it was not given to Montessori."

"The foreign minister doesn't know, it must have been lost by the royal family of Qi and picked up by my Mengshi disciples!" The elder of the Meng clan hurriedly replied.

"Huh!" Yingcheng smiled and said: "Okay, there is no need to make up reasons, the cup has been melted into gold bars, adulterated seventy percent, and the court has lost a lot because of this!" ”

"The foreign minister will make up for the shortfall!" The elder of the Meng clan said hurriedly.

Yingcheng smiled and said quietly: "Since no one is accountable to Montessori, naturally they will not pursue this lost loss." ”

"However, Meng Qing must keep in mind that in the future, only the imperial court coinage workshop can mint coins, and Montessori must not be contaminated!"

Hear the words.

The elder of the Meng clan trembled, and hurriedly said, "The foreign minister understands! ”

"It's good to understand!" Yingcheng nodded.

It is understandable that the clan minted private money.

A lot of gold cakes, Qin half taels, and clan adulteration, led to the disorder of the Qin monetary system.

But what he didn't expect was that Montessori actually used his former roots in Qi to send counterfeit money to Jibei.

It's not even a fake, it's a real coin.

It can't be helped.

Even if copper coins are gold cakes, they can't be anti-counterfeiting, and those genuine currencies flow into the market and can't be distinguished at all.

If you can find out, it can be regarded as a powerful net.

But.

Even if he found out, he didn't think about pursuing Montessori.

Similarly, as long as the clan no longer mints coins privately, it will no longer be pursued.

The past is not investigated, and the future will be strictly investigated.

There is a line that must be drawn.

And next.

Yingcheng listened to Montessori's business plan again.

This exchange is over.

This is a very important exchange.

The most important thing is that Montessori now has a large business volume, and Montessori's initiative to execute the parcel trade book is very beneficial to promote the implementation of the parcel trade book.

The bulk trade book is a big killer in the face of the barbaric development of commerce, even if it is a little cumbersome, it must be vigorously promoted.
