Many people downstairs couldn't help but crowded up, staring at this'sacred decree'.
This is Zhou Zheng's handwritten script, with the word'huangshang' stamped with a seal. Whether it is status or actual influence, it is unimaginable!
As soon as Yang Hu looked at these two words, even if his heart was turbulent, surging like a tide, no matter how hard he was to calm down, at this moment, he knelt down with a thump, and said loudly: "The little man kowtows to Tianen, Huang Enhao**, Yang The family is bound to be broken into pieces in return!"
The other members of the Yang family were also very excited. Let alone these two words, the Yang family will be wealthy for at least three generations!
The people around, don't know how many red eyes, staring at the Yang family like a piece of fat, wanting to get a piece of the pie.
Zhou Zheng helped Yang Hu up and smiled and calmed down a few words.
Yang Hu wiped away his tears and smiled reluctantly, holding the piece of paper in his arms, not letting go.
There were people upstairs, and people rushed upstairs, staring at Yang Huyi, and then looking at Zhou Zheng, eagerly, with a longing expression.
Zhou Zheng looked at the expressions of a group of people and said with a smile: "Don’t worry, the court has formulated some rules that will give some special powers to businessmen who have contributed to the court and outstanding performance, which will be implemented in Nanzhili next month. Everyone has a chance."
Listening to Zhou Zheng's words, a group of people seemed to see something, their eyes glowing.
Hu Jianghe looked at this group of people and said lightly: "There are too many vacancies for official positions at the court, and there will be a lot of transfers from Nanzhili. If you have the ability, you can send a letter to the governor's office and the court for recommendations."
Official position!
The hearts of everyone were beating wildly, not only the official positions on the court side, but also the vacant official positions of the Nanzhili Association!
Here are all dignitaries, and there are too many networks, even pure businessmen, in-laws, friends from the village, etc., some are networks, and some are recommendable people!
The scene suddenly became lively, Jiang Ninghou took the lead, and there was an endless stream of praises and praises.
With this beginning, this banquet is lively.
Not only Zhou Zheng's table, but also the surroundings and downstairs are also full of excitement. From time to time, people come up to toast and greet.
At the tables downstairs, I don't know how many people gathered together and whispered.
"The Yang family's treatment cannot be the first one. We must fight for it!"
"Yes. The Yang family at least picked a good head. Later we will also donate money and land. In addition to salt, there are other things that can be done, and tax exemption, the family's imperial examination, these are all competing!"
"It's about the family's century-old foundation, and we must fight now!"
…
"Our three sons, the original quota is long enough, if we can get permission, three days of scientific research, even if we get one, we will be able to become a scholarly family from the family of low-ranking merchants!"
"My brother-in-law has been waiting for three years, and I have not obtained an official position. If it can be operated and released, let alone other things, at least I have a backing!"
"Can't wait, I haven't seen so many people, what kind of banquet is over, now I have to go and operate!"
"How does it work? Has the governor come? Has the governor come? Let's take the money and the title deed. Can we still drive me away?"
"Yes, yes, we can't go, let the family do it, we must be fast!"
…
In the discussion, Zhou Zheng and Jiang Ninghou, Yang Hu and others "chat", and occasionally asked a few people.
How many people are flattered, trembling, cheered, and nervous.
Not far from Juxian Tower, listening to a few carriages, there are also many flower boats by the river.
These are all invited by the Yang family to'enjoy', and the dancers, singers, and prostitutes are all waiting quietly.
On a flower boat, Dong Xiaowan and Liu Rushi sat opposite each other, silent.
Dong Xiaowan and Mao Pijiang are completely over, and Liu Rushi and Qian Qianyi's ambiguity are also over.
It has been two days since Liu Ru returned to Yingtian. Qian Qianyi avoided seeing him. He was busy with business all day. Now, he went to Hangzhou even more when Zhou Zheng arrived at Yingtian. He did not come back.
…
A banquet did not end until late at night.
Jiang Ninghou, Yang Huyi accompanied Zhou Zheng, walking slowly along the Qinhuai River.
Yang Hu leaned on a cane and followed him, his expression still uneasy.
It was Jiang Ninghou, regardless of whether he was leaning on the old to sell the old or with a bad face, and said with a smile: "Zheng Xibo, today this wine is delicious, I haven't eaten it in many years..."
Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said, "Jiang Ninghou, you don't see it?"
Jiang Ning Hou was startled, and quickly said with a smile: "I just eat and drink, I don't care about other things, and I don't have to leave the house. That's why I have lived so long, so please forgive me."
Zhou Zheng smiled. This is a wise man. He glanced at Yang Huyi and said, "I can do what I say, so I don't need to be so uneasy."
Yang Hu gave a wry smile and said, "The Yang family is too young, so we might be killed by conquering Xibo this piece of pie."
Zhou Zheng laughed and said, "Nanzhili will soon establish a national joint chamber of commerce in all walks of life. There will also be a general chamber of commerce, as well as a sea trade. There will also be special approvals. You Yang family, all have a place. "
Yang Hu's expression was tense, and he quickly said, "Yang Hu remember, the Yang family understands the rules."
Zhou Zheng raised his brows. I don't know if this person is talking about traditional "filial piety", and he didn't bother to pay attention to it. He said, "Someone will come to talk to you about the specific details. Don't leave in Yingtian recently."
Yang Hu hurriedly responded, following in Zhou Zheng's footsteps.
Zhou Zheng was blowing in the wind, waking up, and strolling by the river.
Zhou Zheng left the next day and hurried back to Beijing. The capital is a chaotic place, and problems will arise if he leaves for too long.
As he left, Nanzhili was full of excitement.
The first is that more than 500 gentry joined the court to support the reform, and denounced those who opposed the reform.
Then, officials, merchants, and gentry all disliked'accepting the tide of donation'. In just half a day, the governor of Nanzhili's Yamen received nearly 5,000 acres of land and more than 200,000 taels of silver.
There are also some large and small businessmen, especially rice, grain, salt, etc., have asked for only'SGD', and they carried large bags and small bags to the Zhou's ticket number to exchange for the new currency.
For a time, Nan Zhili set off a wave of'law reform', and the original opposition forces were devastated, which seemed insignificant in the public opinion of Hao Hao.
Lu Daqi took the opportunity to act and promoted the implementation of many things, which was smoother than before and was simply handy.
Yang Huyi and the others did not dare to be idle, and kept holding various conferences to discuss the "chamber of commerce" matters, and to cooperate with the court reform at the private level.
Due to Zhou Zheng's trip, Nanzhili became hot and billowed like a tide.
Naturally, this also made many people look disillusioned. The imperial court's purchase of land was greatly promoted. Lu Daqi was repossessing land while distributing it.
Other provinces, especially the governor recommended by Zhou Zheng, followed the same pattern and followed to promote innovation.
There were too many malpractices in the Ming Dynasty, which would offend many people at every turn. Taking advantage of this will save too much effort.
The people of Zhou Yanru had different attitudes, some sneered, some sat and watched, and seldom moved. (End of this chapter)
