Jiang Xia understood that the biggest reliance of Fujian officials was actually the silver in their hands and the cooperative relationship with the Japanese Invaders. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If we want to completely reverse the situation in Fujian, how to control the Japanese in Fujian is a top priority.

Jiang Xia asked Geng Zhongqiu to find it, in fact, it was Pingzhi Ryuichiro, who had a relationship in Tatar at the beginning.

Heizhi Ryuichiro is a disciple of the Yinliu Yuanxiang swordsmanship school, if Jiang Xia's guess is correct, at this time, Pingzhi Ryuichiro and they came to Daming, in fact, they were carrying a mission.

At this time, Japan happened to be in the Warring States period, when shoguns, guardian daimyos, and manor lords and nobles fought against each other.

At this time, the Japanese warlords were divided, and the country was in a mess.

Swordsmanship schools such as Yinliu Yuanxiang and Shangquan Xiangzhai have always been the objects of competition from all sides.

And Kamiizumi Kansai suffered heavy losses in the confrontation with Shinto-ryu. In order to preserve their strength, they split into two schools, Yin Ryu Yuanxiang and Tokai Doi.

According to Jiang Xia's memory, it was Ashikaga Nobungen who should be supporting the ninth general of the Ashikaga clan at this moment.

Ashikaga Nobugen was the youngest son of Ashikaga Yoshimasa, and he was considered the last shogun of Japan before the end of the shogunate period.

If Jiang Xia's estimation was correct, the current situation of Ashikaga Nobugen should not be good, in order to increase their own strength and maintain the shogunate's army operating expenses, they had to send people to leave Japan and go to other countries in search of wealth.

Heizhi Ryuichiro was originally a disciple of Yinliu Yuanxiang, and since he was so noble, since he was willing to be a killer in Daming, he naturally had a last resort.

This is the most reasonable explanation for raising military expenditures for the domestic Shangquan Xiangzhai.

So Jiang Xia wanted to find him and try to open the gap to control the Japanese through him.

It's just that Geng Zhongqiu hasn't sent back the news of Pingzhi Ryuichiro, and Jiang Xia met someone to find him first.

At this time, it was noon, and Jiang Xia accompanied Yi Crab to check the pulse of Cui Rushuang and Cui Niannu to check whether the fetus in her belly was okay.

Both were six months pregnant, and their bellies were sticking out.

Seeing Rushuang and Niannu's bellies growing day by day, Jiang Xia was still very happy in his heart. Although he sometimes feels that the child is noisy and a little annoying, after all, it is his own child, which means the inheritance of life and the continuation of bloodline.

Even if the child was still in the womb, Jiang Xia could feel a sense of intimacy connected by blood.

Just after Yi Crab confirmed that the fetuses of the two were fine, Jiang Xia pouted and prepared to listen to the second daughter's belly to see if the child would have any movement.

At this moment, the porter came to report that there was a Mr. Hua who claimed to be from Fujian and asked to see him.

Jiang Xia has been paying attention to the affairs of Fujian recently, and now when he heard that this person was from Fujian, he suddenly felt a little strange. He leaned in and nodded, "Let him come in, please wait in the side hall, and I will come out immediately." ”

"Yes. The porter stepped back.

Jiang Xia changed his clothes in the room, and then walked to the side hall.

Just arrived at the dam outside the side hall, through the open door of the side hall, Jiang Xia saw a somewhat thin man.

The man was dressed in white cloth, about forty-three or fourteen years old, and he looked like a gentleman, a bit of an old showman.

Jiang Xia walked into the side hall, and the sound immediately attracted the man's attention.

The man turned his head to look over, glanced at Jiang Xia, and immediately got up and saluted Jiang Xia, "But Lord Zaizhi?"

Jiang Xia nodded, hugged his fists and returned the salute: "Exactly, may I ask who you are?"

"Fujian Fujian Merchant Shipping Company, Huawen Mountain, see Lord Zaizhi. Hua Wenshan bowed deeply to Jiang Xia and said.

"Min merchant ship?" Jiang Xia was slightly stunned, and then smiled slightly.

Things seem to be getting more and more interesting.

What kind of organization is Min Merchant Shipping Company?

He was the only shipbuilding company in Fuzhou that was spontaneously organized by local merchants, ostensibly specializing in shipbuilding and buying ships. In fact, it was a large number of merchants who were organized to trade overseas privately by a large number of merchants without the backing of officials.

Because they are in a group, but they strictly control the size of their own power, and always control their own power within a range that Fujian officials can tolerate.

And they never trade with some big overseas trade players such as Japan, Chenla, Siam, etc., but choose to trade far away from some countries with relatively small trading volumes.

Therefore, the Fujian merchant shipping company can be preserved until now.

When Jiang Xia collected information on Fujian's participation in private overseas trade, he paid special attention to Hua Wenshan.

He is the new president of the Chamber of Commerce of the Fujian Merchant Shipping Company, and he is different from the previous presidents of the Chamber of Commerce and the Fujian officials, as well as the rich businessmen supported by the officials, who do not get along with each other for the old age, and the well water does not interfere with the river water.

As soon as he took office, he became very close to the officials in Fujian and the wealthy businessmen, and the relationship seemed to be very close.

But now he has come to Beijing to ask to see him, where does this come from?

Jiang Xia remained silent, walked to the main seat and sat down.

The maid in the villa immediately brought pastries and tea, and changed the cup of tea that was handed to Hua Wenshan before.

Jiang Xia raised his right hand slightly and made a "please" movement.

"Mr. Hua, please be seated, please have tea. ”

"Master Xie. Hua Wenshan walked to the first position under Jiang Xia's right hand and sat down, picked up the teacup and said to Jiang Xia: "Please." ”

The two took a sip of tea and then put the teacups down.

Jiang Xia was the first to speak: "I have heard of the Fujian merchant shipping company and Mr. Hua's name, I don't know what Mr. Hua worked hard to come to Beijing?"

As soon as Hua Wenshan heard Jiang Xia's initiative to ask, he immediately stood up excitedly, knelt on the ground and said to Jiang Xia: "I ask Lord Zai Zhi to be the master of all the merchants of the Fujian Merchant Shipping Company, and I ask Lord Zai to be the master of the people in all parts of the coastal areas of Fujian." ”

Jiang Xia raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Mr. Hua will get up first, you make such a big gift, how can I talk to you?"

"Yes. Hua Wenshan obeyed. ”

Hua Wenshan stood up and sat back in his chair.

Jiang Xia said: "Let's be specific, what does the Fujian merchant shipping company need me to call the shots, and what do the people along the coast of Fujian need me to call the shots?"

"Yes. My lord, please let me tell you about it in the next one. ”

"I heard that your Excellency intends to lift the sea ban and open up customs trade. I waited for Fujian businessmen, and after hearing this, I was simply overjoyed, overjoyed, and sighed that the adults were wise.

Since ancient times, overseas countries have been poor in products, silver and copper are cheap, and silk porcelain is expensive. Therefore, I sell Daming silk porcelain to overseas countries, often at more than ten times the price.

It is a pity that the Ming Dynasty has always imposed a maritime ban, prohibiting the people from trading with overseas countries. There is a treasure mountain, but there is no way to take it.

Of course, the imperial court has the laws and policies of the imperial court, and we, as the people of the Ming Dynasty, should follow them, and it is not appropriate to comment too much.

However, some people are so greedy for profit that they disregard the laws of the Ming Dynasty and actually trade with overseas countries to make huge profits.

If that's all there is to it, then forget it. However, these people colluded with the local officials in Fujian, and united with the Japanese pirates who were rampant in Fujian, and not only did they privately trade with overseas countries, but they also grabbed and grabbed fishing boats as they wanted, even if they were ordinary merchant ships.

Fujian officials often turn a blind eye to this matter and do not take a turn of the matter. On the one hand, they reported to the imperial court and demanded a huge amount of food and wages for the suppression of the Japanese pirates, and on the other hand, they joined forces with the Japanese to loot and plunder.

In recent years, it has intensified even more, and even connived at the Japanese to land on the shore and wander into villages, towns, and counties, burning, killing, looting, and doing everything.

It was only when the Japanese retreated that the officials appeared, and after some pretentious gestures, they shared the spoils with the Japanese invaders. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Jiang Xia frowned and looked at Hua Wenshan.

He secretly measured in his heart what the real purpose of Hua Wenshan's trip was, of course, no matter what it was, it was definitely not for the purpose of avenging.

If he really wants to avenge his grievances, then why didn't he apply sooner or later, and waited until he Jiangxia intended to open customs trade?

Besides, he himself was not one of the crimes of the Fujian officials and merchants he had just counted, and among them, he ignored the laws of the Ming Dynasty and engaged in overseas trade privately?

Hua Wenshan nodded excitedly and said: "If the adults don't believe it, you can send someone to Fujian for an unannounced visit. ”

"Since this is the case, the official immediately asked people to go to the secret visit first, and then gathered a large army to destroy those corrupt officials and bad businessmen in Fujian in one fell swoop. ”

"My lord, no!" Hua Wenshan hurriedly said.

"Oh, why?" Jiang Xia pretended to be puzzled, but secretly sneered in his heart.

As a person who can play with the Queen Mother, Liu Jin, Zhang Yong, and Qian Ning, force Jiang Bin away, and let Yang Tinghe be willing to submit to others. Jiang Xia's scheming and the city government are not something that a businessman like Huawenshan can understand.

He deliberately said that he would gather a large army and destroy those corrupt officials in Fujian in one fell swoop, but in fact, it was just a test of Huawenshan.

Hua Wenshan's sentence was no, and Jiang Xia suddenly guessed Hua Wenshan's intention. Although not all, Jiang Xia was confident that he had guessed eighty percent.

After Hua Wenshan said the word "unallowed", he said: "My lord, those corrupt officials and bad businessmen in Fujian have huge influence in Fujian, and they have been operating for many years, and their influence is deep-rooted.

If the tactics used by the adults are too strong, I am afraid that it will lead to a backlash. When the time comes, those officials and businessmen will take risks and join forces with the Japanese to make a rebellion, and it will be the people of Fujian who will suffer. ”

"Well, that makes sense. Jiang Xia nodded after hearing this, and asked Hua Wenshan again: "Then according to Mr. Shi's opinion, how should the lower officials act is the best policy?"

Hua Wenshan looked at Jiang Xia with a sincere face and said, "I think that it is the best policy for adults to go to Fuzhou in person to understand the local situation, and then open up overseas trade strongly." ”

Jiang Xia nodded after hearing this, but secretly derived a killing intent in his heart.

This group of Fujian dog officials, Mrs. Ben hasn't made up his mind to do anything to you, but you have hit my head with the idea. r1058
