Chapter 1017 I knew that you were better than Songjiang and opened the port

Everything on the Jingshi side was going on step by step, and after such a big defeat in Liaozhen, the government and the opposition were worried, and Wang Tong led the troops to the east, but everyone was relieved. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

No matter what they think of Wang Tong, whether they think this person is a loyal minister or a traitor, everyone admits one thing, he is the number one general in the world who uses soldiers like a god and wins a hundred battles.

With this understanding, although the defeat of Liaozhen was sudden and embarrassing, but Wang Tong went, everyone was relieved, and the enemy was like that, the first enemy of the Ming Dynasty has always been entrenched in the area of Guihua City, as for the barbarians in the east, the Jurchens outside the border wall, it is really nothing, Wang Tong led the army and even destroyed the Ministry of Response, what can the two do, the standard Tujiwa dog.

If there was anything to worry about at the beginning, after the news of the big victory under Shenyang City came back to Jingshi, everyone understood that the victory was decided.

Everyone didn't care about what new content had been added to Wang Tong's merit book, since the victory was confirmed, why bother to watch Wang Tong happy, wouldn't it be better for everyone to be busy with something else.

In the area of Beijing and Tianjin, even counting Shanxi, Beizhili and Shandong, all the wealthy merchants who got cheap in Tianjin Wei, Guihua City and Xuanfu have smelled business opportunities, and the price of Shanghao Mountain goods outside the customs has soared in recent years, everyone knows that when Wang Tong leads the army to victory, the price of these goods will surely fall, but in the past, it was the Jurchens and Liaozhen who were controlling this trade, and now everyone has a chance.

The people in Jingshi are well-informed, and they also know that after this battle, it is impossible for the Li family to dominate Liao Town, and whether Liao Town can exist is a question.

The merchants of Tianjin Wei got the news the earliest, their business acumen and vision in Tianjin Wei have been trained very well, and other merchants see things differently, they know that the victory of this battle, the pattern of Liao Town will change, a large number of people pouring in will bring greater business opportunities and demand, such goods as Damu can only be done by Sun Shoulian, who controls the Kuandian area, but there will not be much change, but the grain and other materials in Liao Town, as well as the livestock on the grassland that come to the port through Liao Town, etc., I'm afraid it's going to be a lot of output.

Moreover, the land developed outside the border wall of Liao Town, the grain and various materials produced by the reclamation farm, and the various needs generated by the establishment of the farm will all appear one after another, and these are all good opportunities to make a fortune.

The businessmen of the rest of the provinces understand or don't understand, they have a simple and easy way, see what to do with Tianjin Wei's peers, Tianjin Wei's businessmen are aiming at the direction, everyone follows, there is nothing wrong with it.

The court was silent there, but the people began to prepare in full swing, starting from the fifth year of Wanli, one of the things that happened around me was to tell everyone that the earlier you participate in something, the greater the profit, and if you go late, you may not even be able to drink the soup.

In contrast to the people's enthusiasm for Liaozhen and the land and business opportunities outside the border walls of Liaozhen, the main attention of the imperial court center was on the opening of Songjiang port.

Of course, the eunuchs of the inner court and the ministers of the outer courts, who are keen on money in everything, must send their children or cronies to Liaozhen once, first to get cheap in military exploits, and then to see if there is a chance to make a fortune, they are actually the first group of people to act, and they are also the most well-informed about the war in Liaozhen, and by the way, Zheng Guifei's younger brother Zheng Guotai also sent a cousin to Liaozhen, ready to circle a big Zhuangzi.

Tianjin Wei sends 1,250,000 taels of gold and silver into the palace every year, and there are 200,000 taels of silver in Ping'an, in addition, the imperial horse supervisor also has the Huangdian Huangzhuang in Tianjin Wei, this Huangdian Huangzhuang has been criticized in the past, it is nothing more than the Huangzhuang Huangdian sitting on the ground to make a fortune, saying that doing business is actually equivalent to robbery, but there is no such situation in Tianjin Wei, where trade is prosperous and developed, and the business of the alkali line and the leather goods store is involved in the royal horse supervisor, although the silver earned, the royal horse supervisor has to pass up and down, but the silver that enters the palace every year is not less than 400,000 taels, It's almost two million taels of silver a year.

And all the princes in the court know very well in their hearts that if they let go of tax collection, the tax that Tianjin Wei can pay every year will definitely far exceed the current amount, but everyone has such and such a business in Tianjin Wei, and no one wants the court to let go of tax collection, which is harmful to their own interests, so no one mentions it.

Having said that, if the household department goes to collect taxes, everyone divides the profits layer by layer, and everyone handles it, even if the ground is scraped, it is not possible to send more money to the capital than it is now.

Since it is a matter of benefiting the palace, the court and individuals in many ways, no one wants to break the current system of Tianjin Wei, and they are all willing to maintain the status quo.

It is precisely because Tianjin Wei can make so much silver, and because after Zhang Juzheng's death, the taxes collected by the imperial court are getting smaller and smaller year by year, so everyone is eager to open Songjiang port, imagining that after Songjiang opens the port, there can also be such a situation as Tianjin Wei, and half or even one-third of the situation of Tianjin Wei, everyone is very satisfied.

Everyone originally thought that there was an official position with real power, and the generals were holding soldiers in their hands, so there was weight in their words, but Wang Tong had such a territory as Tianjin Wei, Jinshan Yinhai, and Wanshang gathered, and the voice was also very loud through this cornucopia, and everyone wanted to copy one according to the cat and the tiger, at least let Tianjin Wei not occupy such a large proportion in the economic plate of the Ming Dynasty.

Not only the ministers were enthusiastic, but even the Wanli Emperor was very involved in this matter, paying great attention to it, and it was almost convenient all the way.

Songjiang is medium in the size of several prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River, but Tianjin Wei was only a second-class county regulation, the size of the difference is huge, and Songjiang is not as much as the following counties as Suzhou, the tax is the crown of the world, Songjiang Mansion and Tianjin Wei are different from each other in terms of wealth and poverty, than the difference in area and size.

The place is big, and it is so rich, compared to Tianjin Wei Cao Chuang, I don't know how much better it started, if it can be the same as Tianjin Wei's business success, the situation may be better, the opening of Songjiang Mansion this matter, people up and down are thinking so.

Thinking is thinking, doing is doing, the Son of Heaven is extremely concerned about this matter, the eunuchs and ministers are also attentive, and the people below are not good at coping with things too much, and they are all doing it with full energy.

However, many things can not be done well with enough energy, Tianjin Wei's set, on the surface, it seems not difficult, but you can get it over according to the cat and the tiger, but you find that it is not the same thing at all.

Being able to become a eunuch in the inner court, and being a squire in the outer court, always sees things keenly, and his brain is also turning fast, and some things are found to be wrong as soon as they start to do it in Songjiang, for example, they want to draw a commercial area in Songjiang, but how to regulate this commercial area, it seems that it is not possible to completely follow Tianjin Wei.

The Tianjin Division, which is used to collect taxes, has set up a Songjiang Division here, and it has only been set up as a result, and it has made the local gentry and villagers complain, and this Songjiang Division actually came directly to the door to extort money, which is extremely ridiculous.

After Emperor Wanli lost his temper a few times, Tian Yi and Shen Shixing touched each other, and they also came to a result, if they are so bored to learn Tianjin Wei, sooner or later they will make trouble, and then they will not get the credit, but let the Son of Heaven blame, then why bother.

As a result, Tian Yi and Shen Shixing both advised Emperor Wanli in different ways, saying that the opening of Songjiang Port was related to the imperial court taxes, which was not trivial, and it was prudent to choose experienced people to do it.

Where the people have experience, it is natural that the officials up and down the Tianjin Wei are very experienced, and even the shopkeepers of several large commercial houses are very experienced, especially the cadres of the Sanjiang system, they are nominally businessmen, but in fact they carry out the functions of many local governments.

Wang Tong, Cai Nan and Li Hutou are all in Liaodong, there is no one in charge of Tianjin Wei, and the imperial court has not encountered any resistance to the transfer of people, whether it is the various yamen or the Sanjiang system, they are very cooperative, and this is also Wang Tong's order in advance.

In fact, for the people of Tianjin Wei's yamen and Sanjiang system, there are not too few people who can do these things, but too many, although the Sanjiang system is in a state of continuous expansion, but the Sanjiang system trains and absorbs new people to enter faster, especially when the students of the business school are not willing to ask, basically the Sanjiang system digests, sent everywhere to take charge of the party, often two or three people over, pull up a group of local people, do not use so many people, Sanjiang system has a large number of people belong to the high talent and low level, waiting for the opportunity, the Tianjin Division is similar, and many of the retired veterans are placed here.

For these people, they can go to Songjiang Mansion to do things, needless to say, the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, go there, what they have learned is useful, and there is also a chance to get ahead, this is the most important thing.

The opening of Songjiang port has always been a noun since the imperial court proposed, and it is about to become a joke when you see it, but after a large number of experienced and hands-on people arrived in Songjiang, in just ten days of hard work, a messy situation immediately changed, and everyone who was confused and didn't know how to do it suddenly had a direction.

However, Shen Shixing and Tian Yi both lamented in private, if they don't do this, it won't be possible, but if they do this, this Songjiang hasn't opened a port yet, and his Lord Wang has already reached in, these are all the sons of his old subordinates, who do they listen to when you say it matters, how can it be similar to drinking a donkey to quench your thirst.

This is all around April of the sixteenth year of Wanli, and at the beginning of May, the victory and victory were folded to the Beijing Division
