Chapter 690: Silver Coin (End) - Beauty is Justice
On March 15, the magnates and tycoons in Beijing gathered again in Yunbin Building for a meeting.
The second floor of Yunbin Building, after nine days, was again refurbished at night to meet the requirements of the venue. However, the owner of Yunbin Building is very happy to toss like this. This is completely advertising Yunbin Building.
In the twilight of spring, on the avenue of Qipan Street, the willows are still clinging. People come and go, and it's very lively. This is one of the downtown areas of the capital.
At about eight o'clock in the morning, at the gate of Yunbin Building, horse-drawn carriages drove over, or sedan chairs of various styles. The servants surrounded the master and entered the five-room, carved and painted Yunbin Building.
And the front of the building is gradually lively, as the so-called: the green locust on the side of the building cries wild birds, and the green willow in front of the door is a flower.
However, unlike the meeting on March 6, nine days ago, most of the editors gathered downstairs this time were the editors of the newspaper. Owners of small financial industries such as Leng Zixing were not present. Last time, the imperial court had already promulgated the basic rules for minting and issuing silver coins, and now all that remains is to share the cake. It's none of their business.
At half past eight in the morning, Jia Lian, Jia Rong, and Jia Qiang took the little girl into the first floor of Yunbin Building. The hall was already full of people from various families.
Seeing the arrival of the trio from Jiafu, some people burst into laughter. According to a report by the Roadside Agency, today the household department will make the final plan. Obviously, today, Jia Fu is going to make a fool of himself.
Jia Qiang was very dissatisfied, snorted coldly, and looked around to see if it was those people who were coaxing. Jia Rong said: "Second Uncle Lian, look at you." "They sent a letter to Uncle Huan, and Uncle Huan sent a chief back with Qian Huai with a message.
Jia Lian nodded and went up to the second floor.
The second floor is much quieter than the first floor. More than a dozen large tables of eight immortals are set out at will. The table at the top was still empty. It is the position of the officials of the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry.
Jia Lian glanced at it and found that it was different, there were more faces today than last time. For example: the long history of King Beijing, the chief eunuch of the Shu Palace, the wealthy merchant Jing Lan of Shaanxi, and the wealthy merchant Li Lun of Huating County, Songjiang Prefecture. And such as Shiyi, Lu Yong, Yin Wuji, Wang Heting, Ma Juntai, Wu Guanheng, Hu Chi, Liu Zining, Ning Plating and others are all there.
Jia Lian sat down at the table in the Beijing Palace. Steward Xu, the capital housekeeper of Wei Qihou's Mansion, was also there, and said with a smile: "Second Master Lian, you have to be careful in your mansion today." The tone is somewhat gloating.
Don't look at it, on that day, Scholar He cooperated with Wei Qihou to assign the assessment and promotion of the army generals to the military department of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies. However, then the old Wuxun groups such as Jiafu and King Beijing recommended Shi Guangzhu to serve as the governor of Nan'an County. The relationship between the two sides is still a little delicate.
The crowd greeted each other.
In a few years, Zhao Heling, the secretary of the household department, brought more than 20 officials and scribes from the household department and the Ministry of Industry to come over. All the magnates and giant businessmen stood up to salute.
Zhao Shangshu sat at the main table, looked at the eyes around him, and raised his voice: "Everyone, the imperial court will consult with you again. We must come up with a suitable plan today. ”
On the table of the imperial merchants, Liu Huangshang showed a slight wry smile on his face, and whispered to the two imperial merchants: "It's better to settle down in the household department, and we will implement it well." When will we discuss it like this? ”
The two Imperial Merchants each nodded. This is the mainstream view.
There was a buzz in the hall on the second floor. At this time, Jia Lian stood up, bowed, and said, "Lord Zhao, there is a plan below." ”
Zhao Shangshu didn't move on his face, and nodded with a smile, "Oh? But it doesn't hurt to talk about it. ”
Jia Lian continued: "In recent days, there have been many dissatisfaction with the distribution of shares. The reason for this is also that there are no clear principles. What principle? Whoever is in favor of promoting silver coins, we will give more shares. Whoever is willing to promote silver coins, we will give more shares.
In view of this, the shares are divided into three grades. The first tranche: Ministry of Internal Affairs; The second gear: the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, the Shu Wangfu, the rich businessman Jinglin in Shaanxi, and the wealthy businessman Li Lun in Songjiang Mansion; Jin merchants, Hui merchants, Guangzhou merchants, Tianshunfeng, the three imperial merchants, Jiafu. The third gear: Han Wangfu, Beijing Wangfu, etc. ”
As soon as Jia Lian's voice fell, the hall on the second floor was boiling.
King Han's eldest son, Ning Zhu, immediately sneered and said: "How can this be reasonable, according to your Jia Lian's statement, we people are here in vain today." Why are you Jia Fu qualified enough to be in the second gear? ”
Steward Xu of Wei Qihou's Mansion followed: "Second Master Lian, this is too much, right?" He and Jia Lian were at the same table.
Gao Zhiling said: "Second Master Lian has probably never been to our Suzhou, so he doesn't take our merchants in the Taihu Lake area seriously. What is the reason why there is no share of us? ”
Jia Lian didn't react to other people's questions, but he reacted very much to Gao Zhiling's accusation, sneering and mocking: "Gao Yuanwai wants a reason? I can give you a reason. You're ugly. I'm more handsome than you, and that's the best reason for that. ”
"Haha!" A burst of laughter rang out!
No one would think that this is the real reason. However, it can be seen that Jia Fu is targeting Gao Zhiling. This representative of the king of Chu. Of course, what Jia Lian said does make sense.
Take a look, Jia Lian is handsome and chic, with a slender posture, wearing a blue brocade robe, and the demeanor of the children of the family is infiltrated to the bones. On the other hand, the Suzhou giant businessman is one million tall, short, with fetal marks on his face, and his appearance is relatively ugly.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Shu Wangfu represents Queen Yang, and the wealthy businessman Jing Xuan in Shaanxi is related to Li Kangshi, the secretary of Dali Temple. Li Tingwei was the political envoy of Shaanxi, and it is said that he was good friends with Hua. Li Lun, a wealthy businessman in Songjiang Prefecture, represents Wei Xiang.
It's a pretty luxurious political lineup. The Son of Heaven and the Queen, two scholars from the Military Aircraft Department, plus the household department and the Ministry of Industry in the six departments. Gee...
Tang Daobin shook his head with a smile and said to Ji Ming: "Does Ji Tongnian feel that this is Ziyu's style?" ”
A rhetorical question, coupled with the vernacular tone of "whatever", and such a mocking logic of "beauty is justice". said that it was not taught by Jia Huan, who would believe it?
Ji Ming smiled and nodded.
…
…
The loud laughter made Gao Zhiling's face flush. He sensed Jia Lianchi's naked-naked malice.
Yin Wuji, who was in Baichuantong, opened his mouth to instigate, and said with a smile: "Second Master Lian's reason is quite novel. Those of us here who can be more handsome than Second Master Lian are afraid that there are very few. It's hard to convince the public! "He didn't want to pull the order up, but to make Jiafu the target of public criticism.
Jia Lian turned sideways, faced a table of Jin merchants, and sneered: "I forgot to explain one thing, except for all Jin merchants, they are all worth millions, and my plan is to exclude Baichuantong." Baichuantong sponsored the Great Sunday Daily, and some time ago, I ridiculed my Jiafu very energetically. ”
You're paralyzed. Yin Wuji's face froze, but he didn't expect to "get angry". I wanted to scold on the spot, but I blocked my throat in one breath and didn't spit it out for a long time.
Jia Lian made it very clear that the grievances between Jiafu and the Chu royal family. For a while, the hall on the second floor became quiet. This kind of political struggle, no businessman wants to take sides.
Lu Yong frowned, and was about to open his mouth to defend two sentences.
At this time, Zhao Shangshu suddenly spoke up and said, "This plan is good. What do you think? ”
The owner of Tianshunfeng, Hu Chi, known as the king of southwest money, decisively cheered and said: "Dare to ask the boss, how to divide the shares of the first, second and third gears?" ”
This is actually quite strange. Jia Lian's plan, but Hu Chi asked Zhao Shangshu directly. Moreover, Zhao Shangshu consulted everyone's opinions on the premise of expressing his wishes. Many people have some spectrum in their hearts.
Think of the political forces that have united! Even if you have some opinions in your heart, you have to hold back. Twisting your arms over your thighs?
Zhao Shangshu smiled, and said unhurriedly: "The Internal Affairs Office accounts for 15%, the 11 in the second tier each account for 7%, and the third tier 12, accounting for 8% in total." ”
After calculating in their hearts, Wang Heting and Ma Juntai of the Hui merchants immediately stated, "We will obey the orders of the imperial court." ”
Next, everyone expressed their opinions. As for questioning Jia Lian's Han Palace, Wei Qihou Mansion, and Gao Zhiling, Yin Wuji would be useless even if he objected.
The Zongren Order of the Han Palace, to put it bluntly, is just a royal face. In some words, Jin Yiwei reported to the desk of the Son of Heaven. If you dare to make trouble, you will weigh the consequences yourself.
As for Wei Qihoufu, the old Wuxun group and the new Wuxun group are naturally opposed, and economic interests cannot be bought at all. So, why give them points? Give some soup and water, even if it is unity money.
And Jiafu and the King of Chu can be regarded as tearing their faces at a certain level.
No, others have the idea of stepping on your face, and you still have to keep your face shy and stick it, right?
…
…
After Zhao Shangshu announced the results, he left Yunbin Building, and asked each family to send someone to the household department to handle the specific affairs.
In the Yunbin Building, they all dispersed.
The most frustrating is Gao Zhiling, Yin Wuji, and Ning Plating. The three of them were the happiest people who laughed at Jia Lian nine days ago.
Jia Lian looked at Gao Zhiling, who was trembling in his hand, smiled, and turned to go downstairs. Want to step on Jiafu to go up? The water in the capital is not as simple as you think.
The news spread.
The editors of the newspaper were like exploding, writing articles one after another. For them, who would have thought that things would be reversed? Obviously it was open, and a group of people opposed Jiafu and wanted to kick out Jiafu, but they didn't expect that it was Gao Zhiling, Yin Wuji, who was kicked out in the end. Moreover, the share of the Han Wangfu is very small.
…
…
In the carriage, Wang Heting and Ma Juntai both shook their heads with a smile, this plan is good for Hui merchants. This is also the reason why the four major consortia have agreed.
Wang Heting smiled: "Gao Million is going to be stupid." His 200,000 was wasted. ”
Ma Juntai smiled slightly, "I'm thinking, Yin Wuji, eighty percent will be in trouble!" The Jin Shang gang said that unity is also unity. It is said to be a plate of loose sand, but it is also loose sand. If their ticket numbers are merged into one, what else will we do in the banking industry? Baichuan Tong was excluded from the issuance of silver coins, but I am afraid that it will gradually decline. ”
Wang Heting smiled and nodded.
