When the ship arrived in Yangzhou, Wang Wenyan came to the dock to pick it up.

This time going south, Feng Ziying is of course to solve her marriage problem, but on the bright side, or another more important job is to start the construction of the Yinzhuang framework.

Without the support of Yinzhuang and the sufficient money and silver to support Yinzhuang, whether it is Ningbo shipbuilders going north to Denglai to start construction, or existing maritime merchants to start opening up Denglai-Liaoning South Waterway, they will face great difficulties.

In particular, the owners of the shipbuilding workshops contacted made it clear that it was impossible to go to Denglai at first, and it was not until various support policies and support policies were made that they were impressed.

The three most important of these were the low-interest loan from Yinzhuang, the order of the imperial navy fleet with a considerable deposit in advance, and the transfer of hundreds of craftsmen from Qingjiang and Longjiang to Denglai for the use of these shipbuilding workshops, with the promise that if they performed well after a certain number of years of work, they could be discharged.

It can be said that without these three conditions, it would be impossible for the owners of these private workshops to go north at the risk of not adapting in all aspects.

Knowing that the opening of the sea is imminent, all parts of the country will usher in a shipbuilding explosion stage, but they have to give up the conditions of local acquaintances and land to rebuild factories in the strange and dangerous north, if there are not enough tempting conditions, no one will be willing to do it.

And now that there are finally a few workshops willing to go, it means that these conditions are indeed attractive enough.

According to the results of the discussion between Feng Ziying and Guan Yingzhen and Lian Guoshi, the order of the naval fleet will have to wait until after the shipbuilding workshop is completed, and it is not an imminent problem, and the craftsmen of Longjiang Qingjiang moved to Denglai, which is also a problem of the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court.

The silver village must be built as soon as possible, and it must become the first fully formalized silver village in the Great Zhou according to the original Feng Ziying's setting, and its main business is to absorb deposits and lend money.

The main purpose of Yinzhuang at present is not to make profits, but to support the comprehensive promotion of the strategy of opening the sea, and another intention is to make the old financial settlement system of the Great Zhou, especially the clumsy mode of transportation through transportation and other means, replace it with this mode of settlement in different places, which can be self-evident.

As for the profit-making nature of the financial industry, Feng Ziying plans to consider it later.

And to quickly establish the status and credibility of a "new professional bank" that directly excludes pawns, then the best way is to have a strong enough and sufficient shareholder base.

"Let's go." Glancing at the carriage that came to pick up, Shi Xiangyun and Miaoyu both got into the carriage, Feng Ziying and Wang Wenyan nodded and got into another carriage, "How is Gong Lin?" ”

"It's not too good, but it's pretty stable." Wang Wenyan shook his head, "Lang Zhong comes to see it almost every two days, but the conclusion is the same, time is short, but Lin Gong himself is very open, especially after knowing that Miss Miaoyu has promised to come back and recognize her ancestors, she is in a better mood." ”

Feng Ziying sighed and rubbed her cheeks.

Although Miaoyu agreed to come back to visit her biological father, she did not say that she had returned to her ancestors, and through her contact and observation with Miaoyu during this period of time, Miaoyu may not be willing to accept Lin Ruhai's arrangement.

Fortunately, Lin Daiyu's marriage problem was solved, and he was finally able to give Lin Ruhai an explanation, as for Miaoyu, he didn't care.

"The group of salt merchants in Yangzhou arranged by Gongzi has ready-made detailed information in the yamen, and we have also collected and collected a lot of things over the years, it is estimated that Gongzi should be interested, and it will also be helpful for Gongzi's next arrangement."

Feng Ziying's heart was bright.

This Wang Wenyan is worthy of being the think tank of the Ming Donglin Party in the history of his previous life, and he only revealed to him a little bit of his next intentions, and he was able to quickly start the preliminary work according to his own intentions.

And judging by his tone, it should be very smooth, and the harvest is also very large.

Of course, it may also be that the Yamen of the Salt Transit Envoy itself has the resources in this area, and has been consciously engaged in these preparations for a long time.

"Wenyan, hard work." Feng Ziying was also relieved.

He originally wanted to bring Lian Guoshi to help, and even said it early, but he didn't expect to be intercepted by Guan Yingzhen.

If he changes to someone else, he can still fight, but Guan Yingzhen is his current boss, so naturally he can't.

Fang Youdu couldn't leave there, otherwise he would have brought Fang Youdu to Yangzhou, and Fang Youdu himself also wanted to take the opportunity to go back to his hometown in She County.

The matter of "Internal Reference" still has to be watched by Fang Youdu, and this position cannot be easily let go.

And Fang Youdu is now more and more handy in the compilation of "Internal Reference", Feng Ziying's group of "Correct Understanding of the Most Urgent Issues and Their Dialectical Relationships at Present" is divided into several parts, he has written the general framework and basic content, but the refinement and modification of the text still have to rely on Fang Youdu.

Now that the Zhongshu Department has just set up a shelf, Guan Yingzhen is not even willing to let go of anyone, and he is busy preparing for the construction now, and the matter of this silver village is too important and urgent, otherwise Guan Yingzhen will not even let him go.

There are people from the household department, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, but where do these people from outside have their own people who are intimate and convenient?

It's just that although the Chinese calligraphy department is in charge of your official Yingzhen, it can't be said that everyone is decided by you.

Therefore, Guan Yingzhen can only report to the cabinet on the basis of the current situation, enrich the Zhongshu people, and hope to bring in a few from the Guanzheng Jinshi.

Fortunately, from the emperor to the cabinet, they were well aware of the complicated and trivial affairs of opening the sea, so the requirements for Guan Yingzhen were basically met.

In addition to Feng Ziying and Lian Guoshi, who were directly borrowed from the Hanlin Academy to help, people like Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng, as well as Fang Zhenru, Ye Tinggui, Wu Fu and several others were all pulled by Guan Yingzhen.

Originally, Guan Yingzhen also wanted to pull Yang Sichang to the Chinese calligraphy department, but firstly, Yang Sichang is from Huguang, which is too obvious, and secondly, the two revisions of Lian Guoshi and Feng Ziying were taken away by him, and if he wanted to take away another editor, Huang Ruliang could not agree, so he could only give up.

According to the usual practice, the Zhongshu Sheren is regarded as from the seven grades, and the top three Jinshi who are looking at the government can be awarded the seven grades after the expiration of the political observation period, but the Zhongshu Sheren is no better than other officials, and the status of this from the seven grades is much more noble than the ordinary principals, not to mention the position of being released.

Look at the original group of Chinese scholars, which one is not the nephew of the former cabinet elder or the six books?

Now that the imperial court has changed its course, it is necessary to use the Chinese calligraphy department to manage the affairs of opening the sea, and the scholars are not only noble, but also have real power and important positions.

There is no one among the classmates who can help him for the time being, so he can only rely on Wang Wenyan's gang.

Fortunately, Wang Wenyan's gang are not badly capable, and the only regret is that they have no official status, that is to say, it is okay to be their own staff, but if they want to push it out and put it on the stage, it will not work.

Of course, this is also temporary, and now with the enrichment of the Chinese calligraphy, it also seems to be a mixture of dragons and snakes, including both himself and Lian Guoshi and even Fang Zhenru, Ye Tinggui and Wu Fu, as well as a group of officials and eunuchs who were originally ennobled.

"Childe is polite, this is just what Wenyan should do, I don't know what Childe plans to do next?"

Wang Wenyan roughly understood Feng Ziying's intention, which was to set up a silver village, and this silver village was completely different from the existing silver village.

At present, the silver village is basically connected with the pawn, the scale is small, the capital flow is low, and there are very few people who can realize remote access and access, let alone modern financial business.

The Haitong Yinzhuang planned by Feng Ziying means that it reaches the four seas, with its headquarters in Yangzhou and another center in Beijing.

These are the two core cities of the Great Zhou, with Jingshi as the political center and Yangzhou as the commercial center.

In the future, it is necessary to consider setting up branches in Guangzhou, Jinling, Suzhou, Datong, Hangzhou, Ningbo, Quanzhou, and Dengzhou, but at present, it is still necessary to focus on Yangzhou and Jingshi.

Feng Ziying's visit to Yangzhou this time is to divide into two steps, one is to raise shares, absorb part of the funds as share capital, and the other step is to collect savings.

These two steps are indispensable, the former is the foundation, and the latter is the guarantee.

Without the support of strong shareholders, no one will believe in this so-called new silver village, and if there is no abundant silver deposit, relying on the shareholders' little capital, once the lending mode is opened, it is simply beyond their means, so the two are indispensable, and the more the merrier.

There are many downsides, but there are also many positive ones.

First, the existing bank money shop has not yet realized that a new type of financial mechanism model is about to appear, they are still in the state of charging custody fees, mainly for the temporary storage services of some merchants, and the other main business is to pawn to earn the difference, so for the time being, there are no competitors, this is a pure blue ocean.

The second is that the current merchants, whether it is a merchant or a gentry, prefer to store the silver directly at home, or buy it as a field for value preservation and property, but the price of the field is too expensive and there is not so much land to sell, and the cellar is a safety issue at home, and there is no value-added income.

In this case, most people may not be tempted by some of the income deposited in the bank in a short period of time, but as time goes by, when they see that some people can indeed benefit from it, and the reputation of the bank is stable, then it is difficult not to be tempted.

Third, with the opening of the sea, there are many trading days with the Franc machine and the red hair machine, and the new silver village in the European countries, that is, the so-called bank, has already appeared, when these red hair and the Franc machine merchants can calmly accept this new thing, it will definitely have a psychological impact on the merchants of the Great Zhou, especially the maritime merchants.

Moreover, their transactions with these Xiyi merchants can even be completed directly in the silver village without the need for cash transactions, from selling to receiving goods to buying new goods.

The benefits of this level of convenience are not comparable to anything else.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, once the situation is opened, Feng Ziying believes that this superiority will snowball like a crazy roll, when the merchants realize and reflect the convenience and safety and reliability of this kind of silver village began to use it in large quantities, those conservative gentry will eventually involuntarily join in, and obediently deposit the silver they have in the cellar into the silver village.

Of course, this requires a process, and what Feng Ziying has to do now is to use all means as much as possible to shorten this process.
