Yang Huyi, Yang Huzhi and the others looked at everyone present, and when they saw them whispering, if they moved intentionally, they looked at each other.
The two brothers saw the kind of pride, the desire and adventure for success in their youth!
Yang Hu knocked on the crutches, waited for everyone to calm down, and said in a deep voice: "Then we will gamble again. If it is right, everyone here will be the next Patriarch of the Yang family, myself, to create a great future for my children and grandchildren. Family business!"
After all, everyone was businessmen with a unique adventurous spirit. They all sat down, nodded, and agreed with Yang Huyi's decision.
Even those who did not speak, hesitated and did not object.
When Yang Hu saw this, he stood up on crutches and said, "I will write a letter and find someone in person. Three days later, in the Qinhuai River Juxian Tower, I will invite Xibo for a banquet!"
Everyone looked at each other and nodded again and again.
Yang Huzhi glanced at Yang Si and said, "You follow me."
Yang Siyi was startled and said: "Where to go?"
Yang Hu made no expression on the zombie's face, and said, "Go and see Zheng Xibo."
Yang Si shrank his head, afraid to speak. Zhou Zheng left him and planted him in the Yang family, but in recent years, the Yang family has not been as good as before, and he has not been contacted by those people for a long time.
Yang Huyi and the Yang family walked around, contacted, and gathered many big businessmen.
Based on the current situation of the Yang family, those "friends" didn't give much face before, but when it came to the "banquet to Siberian", they immediately regained their friendship, and even many of them were not close, even their opponents became enthusiastic.
But in just one day, the Yang family contacted dozens of big businessmen in Su and Yang and hurried to Yingtian Mansion.
Zhou is inspecting Nanzhili, constantly pushing for reforms in Nanzhili and solving some of the problems.
There was Zhou Zheng on the platform himself, Jin Yiwei watched from the side, even if there was a problem, it became no problem, and the people of Zhou Zheng were rushing.
Some people mourned Zhou Zheng's "Recovering the Capital", "Ping Ding Tianxia", "Kuangfu Sheji" and so on, clamoring for him to establish a shrine for life and send him to the Taimiao, etc.
In a daze, Zhou Zheng felt like Wei Zhongxian was alive.
These were naturally stopped by Zhou Zheng, not to mention hurting the people and money, and also damaging his reputation.
On the second day when Zhou was in Nanzhili, accompanied by Lu Daqi and others, he inspected Zhang Yitan's troops stationed in Yingtian, and rushed to the Yangtze River estuary in the afternoon to look at the embankment.
Walking slowly on the embankment, Zhou Zheng said: "Flood has always been a big problem. The rainy season is coming. I can't ignore it."
Nanzhili has also suffered several disasters. Although it is not more flooded than the Yellow River, it has suffered heavy losses.
Lu Daqi responded, saying: "The lower officials and the governors along the river have written to the court to set up a flood control governor to deal with flood conditions."
Zhou Zheng nodded and said: "My eldest brother is busy dredging various rivers. The Yangtze River and the Yellow River are the main forces, but in a hurry, it is still choking, and you still need your local efforts. A big flood can ruin our years. Work hard."
Lu Daqi followed Zhou Zheng and said, "Yes, the subordinate officials are also clear. Therefore, this year, Nanzhili has an important task, which is the dredging of rivers, mainly the Yangtze River, and the canal. Work-for-work relief is used to appease the victims and dredge the river. , Increase fertile land, smooth water transportation, avoid the danger of river waterlogging, and achieve multiple goals in one fell swoop..."
Zhou Zheng nodded and said: "The distribution of acres should be accelerated. It stands to reason that there is no problem with the resettlement of 30 million people in Nanzhili. With the progress, there may be a shortage of population. I will transfer from places with severe disasters. Second. The taxation must be further refined to reduce the burden on farmers, and businessmen should not be overly squeezed. To give them a relaxed environment, you should also pay attention to sea trade. Third, the system of Nanzhili Province. What do you think? "
Nanzhili, Nanjing, you know this place is extraordinary from the name.
When Zhu Yuanzhang set the capital of Nanjing, Zhu Di grabbed the throne and moved his capital to Peking and changed it to Beijing. Nanjing was one of the two capitals. According to the ancestral system, the emperor was in Beijing, and the prince stayed in Nanjing for fear.
Of course, this ideal design does not work in reality, but it does not hinder Nanjing's status.
Nanjing also has a whole set of government bodies, imperial palaces, six temples and nine temples, etc., except for the emperor and the cabinet, there are almost everything there should be.
Although it was in chaos by Zhou Zheng, most of them became fake, but they are still there.
Lu Daqi, the governor of Nanzhili, was somewhat embarrassed, like a man on his back.
Lu Daqi had long thought about this issue and said: "Nanjing cannot be abolished. The idea of deciding to be an official is to slowly rise above the ground, leaving only the palace, and evacuating other government offices and officials, turning Nanzhili into a normal province. ."
Zhou Zheng snorted and said, "You can think of it. Many problems must be solved in our generation, not to future generations."
Lu Daqi raised his hand and said: "What the lord said is. The next official ordered the governor's office to set up a Department of Harmful Politics Management, which is responsible for participating in politics and regularly reporting progress."
Zhou Zheng was walking along the embankment, and said, "I also watched what should be seen, said what should be said, and did what can be done. Now, it's up to you. You have to immerse yourself in all kinds of work. Sink down. We will definitely have to face all kinds of difficulties, and we have no choice but to go head-on."
Lu Daqi could hear Zhou Zheng's dissatisfaction with the situation in Nanzhili in his words, his expression was tense, and he said, "Yes, you must remember!"
Zhou Zheng faced the breeze and said, "As for the borrowing of silver from the Ministry of Households, you can just watch it and don't care too much. For foreign trade, the Ministry of Households will set up a list. Whether you can enter is up to you."
Lu Daqi immediately understood that those businessmen were looking at the court and Zhou Zheng was not looking at them.
After not taking a few steps, suddenly a school lieutenant came to report: "My lord, there is a Yangzhou salt merchant, Yang Hu, to see you."
Zhou Zheng paused, thinking of this old man, and said: "What's the matter with him?"
The school lieutenant said: "He said that he wanted to entertain the adults, and some other people, to show the adults that they support the imperial reform and support the adults' reform."
Zhou Zheng snorted and said with a smile: "Okay, then the night after tomorrow."
"Yes." The school lieutenant replied and walked away quickly.
Lu Daqi looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "My lord, these merchants are the most unstable in Nanzhili now. Their relationship with officials and gentry is often intricate and difficult to distinguish."
Zhou Zheng nodded. In the Ming Dynasty, the budding of capitalism has already appeared, but this budding is largely based on the land. It is a unity of government, business, and gentry, and it has not yet evolved enough.
Zhou Zheng couldn't help but look towards the estuary of the Yangtze River. Europe has been sailing for some years, and the Ming Dynasty must catch up and surpass!
Zhou Zheng turned his thoughts in his heart and said with a smile: "They entertained me, it means that they have to lean over, so it can be used well. After all, there are two means to resist the strength, to suppress and win them, and to divide them."
Lu Daqi understood Zhou Zheng's intentions, and said, "Do you want to be accompanied by an official?"
Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said, "They don't have such a big face, you are busy with you."
Lu Daqi thought about it, so Ying didn't say anything.
The two of them continued to move forward, talking about Nan Zhili and Daming. Behind them were the civil and military officials of Nan Zhili. (End of this chapter)
