Zhu Yijun didn't expect that the business of Yanxinglou Trading House could be so hot, far exceeding the emperor's expectations, and the people who got the ship tickets in their hands all clenched the ship tickets in their hands, held positions and waited, and did not plan to sell them at all.

As the emperor, as a disciple of Zhang Juzheng, he reflected on the problems in the design of the system for the first time, and finally, he found that it was his own problem, the number of ship tickets on the market now is too small, whether it is in the hand to wait for the price increase or the dividend, it is a sure business to make a profit, why should you make a move?

"Longjiang, Songjiang, Mizhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, the five major shipyards of Daming, the craftsmen are working overtime overnight, not only to expand production, but also to maintain production, it has reached the limit, I can pick out up to thirty three-masted plywood ships a month to reissue ship tickets, far from enough, when I was in the Quanchu Hall, Dr. Zhang Siwen reminded me and told me that ship tickets of this scale are simply not enough to support." Zhu Yijun's fingers kept tapping on the table.

Zhang Siwen also participated in the closed-door meeting of the Quanchu Hall, at that time Zhang Siwen said that such a ship ticket, in terms of arithmetic, does not support transactions, at that time, including Zhu Yijun, Zhang Juzheng, including everyone, even the most optimistic estimate, these fifty three-masted, five five-masted, can be subscribed in a month, can already burn high incense.

Practice has proved that these 55 ships did not survive even a day.

"What's the problem?" Zhu Yijun's fingers tapped more and more urgently, he suddenly stopped his fingers, looked at Feng Bao, and said in disbelief: "Why do they believe in me so much?" Aren't you afraid of them? ”

The proprietor behind Yanxinglou has his hands and eyes to the sky, either the Yuanfu Taifu of the Quanchu Guild Hall, or Zhu Yijun, the ruler of the Ming Dynasty who lives in Xiyuan, Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng seriously underestimated the credibility of the two of them in Jingtang and in the world, so they judged that it would take a month for these fifty-five ships to be subscribed.

"Your Majesty, in fact, these are scolding fiercely, but Your Majesty's words are a gentleman's words, and the horses are difficult to chase, and the know very well in their hearts, and even the Taixi people know that Your Majesty keeps his promises." Feng Bao finally understood the crux of the problem, and made a fuss, and also stated a basic fact, that is, reputation.

The country has lost great trust, and people's hearts are suspicious.

The credibility of the dynasty is not concrete, not objective, and even illusory, but it does exist, the Ming Emperor Zhu Yijun, never broke his word, the only time he broke his word, or the tripartite moderation of the tax court, after Zhang Juzheng returned to the dynasty, the emperor immediately ordered the household department of the Qing Division, the governor of the Metropolitan Inspectorate, the patrol according to the imperial history, the imperial history, and the judicial department can participate in it.

Zhang Juzheng is not in the court, not to mention that His Majesty does not trust the readers, that is, the readers themselves do not believe in themselves, everyone is what kind of goods, they know each other, His Majesty was not married at that time, the adults were not at home, a child, the first consideration is self-preservation, which is understandable.

Zhang Juzheng returned to the court, everything was back on track, everyone opened their eyes, His Majesty's gaffe was just a manifestation of Deliang Youchong, after His Majesty's big wedding and pro-government, he did what he said, His Majesty's reputation was really very strong, hard as iron.

Promises need to be kept.

"I didn't expect them to believe in me so much, no, I'm going to trick them!" Zhu Yijun raised his eyebrows and said happily.

Feng Bao opened a book and put it in front of His Majesty, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, they believe that Your Majesty can make money with them, after all, Your Majesty never asks the outer court for silver, and it is really a good way to make money." ”

This point, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military are very sure, the emperor really has a way to make money, His Majesty is in the way of accumulation, it is really a land fairyland, the Ming national funds no longer beg for food from the inside, it is Zhang Juzheng's credit, the internal money does not ask the national money to beg for food, it is the internal money that is richer than the national money.

Gone are the days in which the state and the domestic money begged for food.

"This can only be slowly expanded." Zhu Yijun actually didn't have a good way, and thought about it for a long time, only by slowly expanding production, this trading house would have enough ship tickets to trade and circulate.

This is the reason why the luxury households believe in the emperor, the Ming Emperor encountered this problem, the first time to think is to expand production, and then increase the issuance of ship tickets, instead of directly let the household treasure banknote bureau, directly open the seal, how much to print and how much to sell, can pit a sum is a sum, Your Majesty in this kind of matter, is always very conservative, would rather have a price than a market, rather than cheat.

Zhu Yijun obviously wanted to cheat them, but he still refused to overtake the invoice indiscriminately, which is the source of His Majesty's credibility.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that the DPRK's finances are very healthy, and it is not so poor that it has to fish with all its might, so it can be sustainably fished with all its might.

Zhu Yijun reviewed the recital in Xiyuan, and the bureaucratic machine of the Ming Empire also exposed many problems under the examination law, and it took more than seven years to tinker and tinker, and the operation was very stable, and the efficiency was extremely high.

The imperial court finally has a bit of the appearance of the imperial court, this is the credit of Zhang Juzheng, he has always served as the secretary of the ministry, which is also the reason why Wan Shihe can stretch out his hand to the Ministry of Rites every day.

At this time, Wang Chonggu, the secretary of the criminal department, was organizing a banquet in the Quanjin Hall, and the Quanjin Hall was particularly lively today, and all those Jin merchants came to the hall to send filial piety.

The former party leader Ge Shouli set the rules, the annual ice respect, carbon respect halved, this rule Wang Chonggu did not change after becoming the party leader, no, summer is coming, and it is time to send the ice respect, this time the Jin merchants came to send the ice respect, this family of five hundred taels, is enough for the whole Jin hall.

Of course, such filial piety cannot express the gratitude of the Jin merchants to Wang Chonggu at all.

A Jin merchant stood up, held a wine glass and said loudly: "It's still our Wang Cifu, there is a little bit of news in the cracks of our fingers, it is enough for us to eat and drink, and it is a big fish and meat, we Jin merchants can have today, we have to thank Wang Cifu for his great kindness!" ”

"A cup of the king's second assistant!"

"A cup of the king's second assistant!"

The Jin merchants present all stood up, raised the wine glass in their hands, and after drinking it in one gulp, they poured it to signal that the wine was finished.

This time, the Jin merchants received the news in advance, because the Jin merchants had prepared for the ship tickets of the trading bank, they had eaten to their heart's content, if it weren't for the bastards in Xitu City to come and grab it, the ship tickets of the trading bank could be covered by them.

Wang Chonggu sat at the top table, he stood up, looked around, frowned and said: "Doing business is doing business, what's the matter with a big fight in the trading house?!" If there will be a private fight in the future, don't blame me Wang Chonggu for turning his face and not recognizing people, making money with anger, making money with anger, if it weren't for the fact that Shuntianfu Cheng took the officials to patrol the neighborhood today, and there was a lawsuit for his life, you, me and him, none of them could escape! ”

Wang Chonggu was very dissatisfied with the fight that happened in Yanxinglou today, none of the businessmen who went to the laymen were good at stubble, they were all bloody, and the laymen, horse bandits, Beiyu, other businessmen, and white-haired wind, all of them were dangerous, and all of them were horizontal.

Thanks to Jingshi, no one brought a murder weapon, otherwise Wang Chonggu would definitely have to go to Xiyuan to ask for a crime.

"What Wang Cifu taught me is that I was the first to move today, and I punished myself with three cups, and Wang Cifu eliminated his anger and eliminated his anger." A businessman stood up and accompanied them again and again, Wang Chonggu reminded them more than once that they were all carrying their tails in Jingtang, and if the other party hadn't made the first move this time, they wouldn't have started fighting.

Wang Qian looked at this scene, and said in a strange manner: "Hmph, before my father took out the silver from the worsted wool business, you were all full of complaints, and you always felt that your father made less money, why, it was your father's fault to stop you from jumping through the Huihe?" ”

"Now that everyone is full of flattery, why don't you blame my father?"

Wang Qian had a fire in his heart, when Wang Chonggu took out the 10 million silver and handed it to the emperor as money to buy his life, the Jin merchants were more tempered than the other, and now they are as obedient as a quail, Wang Qian naturally wants to take this opportunity to put this matter on the bright side.

"Son, remember, this cutting off people's wealth is like killing your parents, your father and I have cut off everyone's wealth, don't you see me as an enemy who kills your father? Alas. Wang Chonggu didn't smile, it seemed to be self-deprecation, but it was actually ridiculing these Jin businessmen who had different attitudes before and after.

"Wang Cifu is serious, heavy! In the future, we will wait, and naturally we will only be the first to look forward! No other words! I'll punish myself three times! The businessmen looked at each other, all of them were their own people, they were all businessmen under the Quanjin Guild Hall, Wang Chonggu was a two admonitions, if it weren't for his own people, Wang Chonggu's methods were really killing people without seeing blood.

"There are dozens of people jumping down the Tonghui River, but they are all old acquaintances, and that Chen Laosi, who is a wealthy businessman who competes with our Shanxi people in the tea business, has been fighting for more than ten years, and he jumped off the Tonghui River fiercely, which is really embarrassing, or Wang Cifu can see it clearly, see it clearly." A businessman said sadly.

The worsted woolen business caused dozens of people to jump through the Huihe River, which is a big deal, and the ship ticket is also a big deal, after these two major events, everyone's complaints and suspicions about Wang Chonggu have completely disappeared, and they only have gratitude in their hearts!

Follow Wang Cifu and have meat to eat!

"Okay, it's good to be obedient and don't say a few words, just don't complain so much in the future."

"Announcing a matter today, the children of Shanxi, no matter how high or low, can all go to school at home in the Quanjin Hall, the balance of the Quanjin Hall last year was used to expand the family school, and the children can be sent here in the future, read more books, and the province is ridiculed by our Jin merchants are all barbarian men, and they don't know the etiquette." Wang Chonggu waved his hand before continuing: "You eat and drink well, I still have something to do, and if you make trouble after drinking, you will be sent to the prison of the Criminal Department, and you will be honest after a few days!" ”

The Jin merchants bowed their heads again and said in unison: "Send Wang Cifu!" ”

This fight, I really don't blame the Jin merchants, the Jin merchants are queuing, those luxury households in Xitucheng insist on cutting in line, and they also push and shove, scolding and scolding, saying that the Jin merchants are a group of countrymen who don't know the etiquette, and they came and went before they fought, so Wang Chonggu didn't blame him too much.

Wang Chonggu hummed a little song and returned to the backyard, obviously in a very good mood, he sat in the Wenxing Pavilion, holding a cup of tea, shaking his head and taking a sip.

"Father, are you in a good mood?" Wang Qian came up with a smile on his face.

"This trip, I think I did a good job, first, the court needs a lot of money to open the sea, just like a bottomless pit, no matter how you fill it; Second, the Jin merchants finally became honest through these two things, and their silver was also taken out, which can be regarded as doing things for the country. Three, it's me. "Wang Chonggu is indeed in a good mood.

"Father still made money in this matter?" Wang Qian frowned, full of doubts.

Wang Chonggu slapped Wang Qian on the shoulder, and Wang Qian grinned when he was beaten, and Wang Chonggu said angrily: "Phew! Thinking about money every day! Our family's money, you can't spend it in ten lifetimes! No matter how much you spend, you don't make as much money as Lao Tzu, as for Lao Tzu when he is doing things, he has to put silver in his arms? ”

"That's a little bit of interest!"

"What my father taught me, but my father himself said that the three is himself, what does this mean?" Wang Qian rubbed his shoulders, his father was right, he couldn't spend ten lifetimes on the money in his family, as the second broadest young man in Beijing, Wang Qian spent money not lavishly, it was a waste of wine, but the money he spent was a fraction of his father's money.

Wang Chonggu pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you know what the smelliest thing I have ever smelled in my life?" ”

"Huh?" Wang Qian's eyes widened, and the most smelly thing in the world turned around in Wang Qian's mind, and he shook his head and asked, "What is it?" ”

Wang Chonggu put down the teacup, looked at the sky outside the window, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a slight distraction: "It's the rotten and smelly young man's spirit." ”

"Huh?!" Wang Qian was stunned.

Wang Chonggu leaned on the back of the chair and said leisurely: "The spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day, this is Meng Jiao's "After Dengke", he wrote this poem in the twelfth year of Zhenyuan Dynasty, and wrote this poem Seven Uniques, just this poem, is the epitome of how many people have been throughout the ages? No one has just become a jinshi after entering the department, just thinking about being a traitor, a minister, or a thief, all of them have the ambition of self-cultivation and Qi family to rule the country and level the world, and they all have the youthful spirit of governing the country and the country. ”

"Oh, yes."

Wang Chonggu said two things in a row, he remembered Yang Bo, who had been dead for five years, when Yang Bo finally left the court, he carried a question about His Majesty, whether Yang Bo was a gentleman or a villain, Yang Bo himself couldn't answer this question, maybe before he died, when Yang Bo returned to the light, he was still thinking about this question, looking back on his life, what kind of life he had lived?

He is not loyal to the dynasty, nor to the monarch, and even less to his own heart, and not to the sage book, heart Chinese, benevolence, and universal physics in his heart.

Wang Chonggu when he was a teenager, if he knew that he was old, he would be like this, he was afraid that he would be heartbroken, regretful, and eager to kill himself, after all, he would have lived into that extremely annoying and disgusting appearance, Wang Chonggu felt that the most stinky thing was his rotten and smelly youthful spirit, juvenile ambition.

"Not anymore!" Wang Chonggu clapped his hands and said happily: "Oh, your father and I have thought about it carefully, what your father and I have done since Wanli are not only loyal to Your Majesty, but also loyal to the court, and even more loyal to yourself!" ”

After being kicked out of the Wenhua Hall by Zhang Juzheng in the first year of Wanli, Wang Chonggu did a lot of things, resettled 190,000 landless tenants, filled the holes in the Xuanda Great Wall, built the Yongding Woolen Factory, Xishan Coal Bureau, supervised the construction of the Dingjian Dagong to repair the central axis of the palace, the Royal Gewu Academy, the pagoda, and the martial arts school, and practiced his political promise to settle the hooligans and preside over the affairs of the supervisors, and gave the Jinshiju people the opportunity to practice, as well as the recent things, and repaired a new cornucopia for His Majesty.

The key is this new cornucopia, but also the opening of the sea in the Dali Dynasty, some internal contradictions in the Ming Dynasty can not be alleviated, can only be bailed out externally, and the opening of the sea requires a large sum of silver, just relying on the imperial court, the opening of the sea is just a mirror, but tying everyone to the chariot of opening the sea, it has become a national plan.

Wang Chonggu said with a smile: "It's good, it's good, this old saying is good, no matter what you do, no one is perfect in your heart, no matter why I want to do this, I still did it, didn't I?" In the future, the Spring and Autumn Period will judge, and our king Chonggu can also mix mixed reviews and criticisms, instead of being nailed to the pillar of shame of traitorous ministers and being scolded for generations. ”

"Dad, why don't I have any youthful spirit?" Wang Qian thought about it for a long time and found that he had never had any ambition to settle the world.

"Blame your father, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, you haven't suffered anything, it's good to have no ambition, after your father and I leave, you will hand over all the silver of our family to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, keep your promises, give all the silver to Your Majesty, just the dividends are enough for you to live a chic and happy life." Wang Chonggu glanced at Wang Qian, but said not very concerned.

Wang Chonggu was afraid that Wang Qian would have ambitions that he shouldn't have, he was safe and stable, that is, the money in the family was enough for him to toss, after all, His Majesty wanted to look at his merits and give Wang Qian some preferential treatment, if Wang Qian wanted to open up their family and make it bigger and stronger, it would be a bad thing.

"Dad, our Ming merchant ships all carry firearms, will this hinder maritime trade?" Wang Qian raised his own question, he was very strange, the fifty-five ships that Daming subscribed to this time were all armed merchant ships, this went to trade with weapons, overseas countries, are you willing to trade honestly?

Wang Chonggu thought for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "Daming, it's not what they like, it's what they are afraid of." ”

Zheng He's mission to go to the West was to announce the edict of the Son of Heaven, because he gave him the ruler, and if he did not accept it, he would be deterred by force.

Those who are not convinced will be deterred by force, this is Zheng He's mission, he is preaching the prestige of the country, which is also in line with the attitude of the Ming Dynasty towards overseas countries, not to let them like it, they will not like it, it is what they are afraid of, only if they are afraid, the Ming can get what they want.

If they don't want to, then in the name of free trade, kick open the door, continue to trade and trade, and use trade to plunder the wealth of the world, which is one of the means to relieve internal contradictions and external relief.

"Dad's words are very pertinent!" Wang Qian thought about it, it is this logic, Daming has never been liked, Daming as the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, these overseas countries, there is no reason to like Daming at all, just like when the Taixi people existed in Rome, they always tried their best to break Rome, and when Rome disappeared, they jumped out one by one and declared that they were Rome.

"Dad, Altan Khan and Tuman Khan seem to have fought." Wang Qian put a letter from outside the Sai on the table, this is the letter sent by the three ladies to the imperial court, Altan Khan now does not dare to provoke the Ming Dynasty, persimmon picks soft pinch, Altan Khan's soldiers pointed to the barbarian Khan.

After reading the letter, Wang Chonggu stood up abruptly and said: "I'll go to the palace, don't wait for me, you go to the Quanchu Hall and hand over this letter to Yuanfu, and then go to the Quanzhejiang Hall and inform Da Sima." ”

Wang Chonggu immediately got up, today is the day of Jiaobing Jing, but the party leaders of the three main guilds in Jingtang, after learning of the internal strife in the northern captives, immediately began to enter the palace, and the Ming Dynasty has been waiting for Altan Khan and Tuban Khan to start a war.

"Ministers, see Your Majesty, Your Majesty." When Zhang Juzheng arrived at the Wenhua Palace, the Ming courtiers had arrived, and naturally they received the news that this was an emergency court meeting.

"No courtesy, no courtesy." Zhu Yijun waved his big hand, signaling that there was no need to be polite, after he sat down, he passed down the letter of the third lady, looked around and said: "Mrs. Zhongshun came to the letter, I was like a bamboo, and the Tuman Khan could only resist desperately." ”

"Altan Khan's attack was very cleverly timed, not in summer, not in autumn, but in spring and summer." Qi Jiguang finished reading the letter of the third lady, and I have to say that this guy Altan Khan is worthy of being the king of the Ming Dynasty for twenty-five years, his military talent is indeed very good, and the timing of the war is in the spring and summer.

The summer of the grassland will come later than the Beijing Division, this season, it is the time when the lamb gives birth, Altan Khan launched an attack at this time, that is, in the strength of the Tuman Khan, the Tuman Khan has just survived the catastrophe, escaped from the hands of the Ming Dynasty out of the Daxianbei Mountain Pass, if after a year, the Tuman Khan has a firm foothold, Altan Khan will have to pay a greater price.

Now is the right time.

"Qi Shuai thinks that how long can Tuman Khan last?" Zhu Yijun is not optimistic about Tuman Khan, Tuman Khan is newly defeated, his morale is weak, and his strength is not good, and at the same time, the timing of Altan Khan's choice is indeed just right.

"The earth man sweats for a long time." Qi Jiguang frowned and said: "Your Majesty, after all, Tumen's surname is only a catty, and he is the suzerain of the Northern Captives, the Great Khan, and in this battle, Altan Khan can only win quickly, once he can't win quickly, Tuman Khan can survive this year, and I have no way to take Tuman Khan, which is why Altan Khan chose this time to attack." ”

"Altan Khan is a traitor to the steppe."

Qi Jiguang is talking about the success or failure of people's hearts, I and Tuban Khan are both surnamed Xiao'er only catty, both are golden families, and Tuban is the suzerain Khan, I am a traitor to the grassland, Altan Khan even no longer believes in immortality, converted to Buddha, this kind of people's hearts are behind their backs, if they let Tuban Khan drag it out, this is a war of attrition.

"Qi Shuai thinks, should we help the Tuman Khan or help me the Great Khan?" Zhu Yijun thought for a moment, in the area of military talent, Zhu Yijun trusted Qi Jiguang more than believing in himself, and in the military field, Qi Jiguang's judgment was much more accurate than Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yijun is very self-aware of his military talent.

Qi Jiguang looked at Kanyu Tu, looked at it for a long time and said: "Help Tuman Khan, help him survive the most difficult time, as long as it drags on until autumn, Altan Khan will never be able to win, at that time, Da Ming can be the referee, whether it is to let Tu Man Khan win, or let Altan Khan win, it is not in the interests of Da Ming, only if they fight you to the death, Da Ming can fish in troubled waters and get the benefit of the fisherman." ”

"Okay." Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked, "What does Mr. think?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister is not familiar with military affairs..."Zhang Juzheng looked at the Ming Emperor and said very sincerely, in terms of military talent, Zhang Juzheng and His Majesty are at the same level, almost zero, and it is okay to put the afterthought, so that he can judge the direction of the war from the complicated situation, he really can't do it, he strategically agrees with Qi Jiguang's statement.

Let them fight, the more lively the fight, the better, you can fight to the death, Daming can be the referee, in order to adjudicate the grievances and hatreds between them, in order to make profits.

Anyway, the Ming cavalry has not yet formed combat effectiveness, and it is unrealistic to continue to fight out of the fortress, so it is better to watch from the wall and fight crickets with straw sticks.

"The minister thinks what Qi Shuai said is reasonable." After thinking about it, Yu Dayou chose to agree with Qi Jiguang's judgment, Altan Khan can really beat the barbarian Khan to death, if he really lets Altan Khan win, it will be difficult for Daming to reset.

"The minister seconded the proposal." Tan Lun also thinks that we should help Tuman Khan, the dog bites the dog's hair, let them bite it, and no one can win, which is the key.

"Buyan, the son of the Tuban Khan, is he still in Jingshi?" Zhu Yijun looked at Ma Ziqiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Buyan has been in Beijing for half a year, and he has never been able to get the opportunity to meet the emperor, and Buyan is here to sue for peace.

Ma Ziqiang immediately said: "Back to Your Majesty, Buyan does live in the Siyi Pavilion, and he is still clamoring to see him today. ”

"Okay, let's let him see him today." Zhu Yijun immediately gave instructions, the Tuman Khan was being beaten, and the Ming Emperor was finally willing to meet the envoy of the Tuman Khan.

As for how to help Tuman Khan, just look at what Tuman Khan needs, Daming can help, but these help is definitely not free.

"Wan Dazai, Overseas Fan Guozhi, how is the repair? If you finish a volume, you can show me a volume. Zhu Yijun is still very concerned about "Overseas Fanguo Zhi", Wan Shihe has presided over the revision for more than half a year, and has been formulating the standard of revision before.

Wan Shihe thought about it and took out two volumes from his arms, Zhu Yijun briefly looked at the two chronicles while waiting for Buyan, Wan Shihe and this reader deserve to be a reader.

Wan Shihe repaired two volumes, the first volume is Annam, and the second volume is Luzon, according to Wan Shihe, these two places are the inherent territory of the Ming Dynasty since ancient times.

According to Wan Shihe, Annan and Luzon are both of Miao descent from the Central Plains, and they migrated to Annan and Luzon because of the war.

Everyone is from the Central Plains, and that territory is naturally the inherent territory of the Central Plains Dynasty.

Wan Shihe is defining the history of overseas countries, anyway, they don't have their own historical chronicles, and it's not what the Ming Dynasty wants to write, just what it is?

"Wan Dazai has a heart." Zhu Yijun is very satisfied with the revision standards of overseas national chronicles, no matter what, he will shout out the claim first.

"Your Majesty, Buyan is waiting outside the palace." A small yellow door walked in and bowed his head to report.

To define history is to define the present. Ask for a monthly pass, woo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
