After receiving the news sent by Yun Na, Liu Zhen immediately asked people to go to the State Guest House to send an invitation to Cui Li, and asked Cui Li to go to the Goryeo Art Hall at noon the next day for a banquet.

The so-called confidant knows that the other side can survive a hundred battles, Park Sanze "bought" the officials of the State Guest House to monitor Cui Li, so as soon as Cui Li received Liu Zhen's invitation, Park Sanze knew about this matter, and he was taken aback.

Obviously, Yoo Jin would not invite Choi Li to drink for no reason, so the only explanation in Park Sam-taek's opinion is that the Ming court is ready to support the Soyang Grand Monarch Yi Yao as the future king of Joseon.

This was bad news for Park Sam-taek, and it made him restless.

Because it was a matter of life and death, Park Sam-taek didn't want to sit still, so he immediately sent someone to send news to Kim Sun, asking her to pay close attention to the movement of the banquet set up by Yoo Jin tomorrow to see if the Ming court supported the Shouyang Grand Monarch Li Yao to inherit the throne of Joseon.

Although Kim Sun was in the Goryeo Art Museum, she didn't know about Yoo Zhen's banquet for Cui Li, and she was quite shocked when she heard the news, which means that the loyal prince of the Ming Dynasty supported Li Ji in this civil strife in the Korean country, otherwise how could Yoo Zhen suddenly have a banquet for Cui Li?

Although Kim Seon worked hard to manage her interpersonal relationships at the Korea Art Museum, after all, she had only been here for a short time, and most of the girls who could come here to learn art were not idle people, they were all smart and clever, and they had been trained since she was a child, so it was not easy for her to take advantage of those girls.

However, Jin Shan privately used his money to win over a maid serving Yoo Jin in the art hall, and this maid will appear at tomorrow's banquet, which makes Kim Shan not helpless.

Although Kim Sun secretly found the maid and asked her to pay attention to the movements at the banquet, especially whether Yoo Jin and Choi Li talked about Li Jin, this not only did not make her feel a little relieved but became more nervous.

Because once the matter becomes a reality, it will be a catastrophic consequence, not to mention her, even Park Sanze can only sit back and wait, after all, the diplomatic affairs of the Ming Dynasty are not something that the two of them can interfere in.

Goryeo Art Center, dance training ground.

"Jin Shan, tomorrow is a holiday, do you have any arrangements?" Just as Kim Seon was absentmindedly practicing the dance, a girl quietly approached and asked in a low voice.

"Sister Hongzhu, what are you going to do tomorrow?" Jin Shan shook her head when she heard this, she felt as if the other party had something to say, so she whispered back.

This girl named Hongzhu is from the Qinglou in the south of the Yangtze River, and is a Qingqi person who has been trained by the old bustard of the Qinglou with a lot of money, and has been in the Gaoli Art Museum for two years, and is very familiar with the land in the capital, and is sociable, and is the object of Jin Shan's vigorous wooing.

"Tonight, the son of the Ministry of Industry Shangshu held a banquet in the Sifang Hall, are you interested in joining in the fun?" Hongzhu smiled slightly, lowered her voice and said.

"Thank you, sister." Jin Shan was slightly stunned at first when he heard this, and then he was happy in his heart, and thanked Hongzhu in a coquettish voice.

Hongzhu then explained a few words to Jin Shan and left, Jin Shan's eyes showed a hint of joy, thinking that tonight's banquet was a great opportunity to get close to the children of the Ming magnates, and maybe it would come in handy in the affairs of the Korean State.

It is worth mentioning that these girls who came to the Goryeo Art Museum to learn art did not only practice dance, but also wanted to get to know the high-ranking officials and magnates in the capital through the Goryeo Art Museum.

The Goryeo Art Museum has a holiday system, with one day off every seven days, and some well-known girls are usually invited to dance and perform at the banquet of the powerful in Beijing, which can not only earn a hard fee but also meet a lot of powerful people in the officialdom, so why not.

Although the Goryeo Art Center did not prevent those girls from participating in the drinking banquets of high society, it did not object to them expanding their personal relationships in the capital and making friends with the powerful people in the capital.

However, there is one thing that those girls cannot overcome, that is, they must ensure the innocence of their bodies, after all, the Goryeo Art Museum is a place to learn art, not a green building to sell themselves.

If someone fouls the law, they will be removed from the Korea Art Center, and there is no room for relaxation, so that those girls will have their future ruined and will not be able to get ahead again.

Generally speaking, the girls who go to the banquet of the powerful are either from poor families or Qingqi people in the Qinglou, and those ladies from prominent backgrounds will not show their heads in public.

In order to ensure the safety of the girls who go to the banquet, all girls who go to the banquet to perform must be registered at the Korea Art Center, and the staff of the Korea Art Center will take them to the banquet and bring them back after the banquet.

The magnates in the capital know the background of the Goryeo Art Museum, as long as they are not full, they naturally dare not embarrass those girls who come to the banquet to perform, otherwise there is no need for Li Yuntian to come forward, and the imperial history of the Imperial Court alone is enough for them to drink a pot.

Moreover, the Korea Art Center does not interfere in the private lives of those girls, and they can associate with those powerful people, but the premise is not to violate the rules and regulations of the Korea Art Center.

Jin Shan knew about this before she entered the Goryeo Art Center, but because she was a newcomer to the Art Museum, no one took her to this kind of banquet during the first two holidays, and this time Hongzhu was able to invite her to go It was a surprise for her, indicating that Hongzhu had regarded her as her own person, so that she could use Hongzhu's interpersonal resources to help Li Jue.

After practicing dance in the afternoon, the Korean Art Center officially closed for the holiday, and the girls who lived in the capital chose to go home to reunite with their families, and most of the girls from other places had to stay in the Korea Art Center, and a small number went to the relatives in the capital.

After bathing and changing clothes, Jin Shan followed Hongzhu and several other girls into the carriage waiting at the entrance of the art hall, and went to the Sifang Hall with laughter.

The Sifang Hall has already become the most upscale leisure place in the capital, and it is the favorite of the dignitaries and nobles in the capital, and it is the dream of countless singing and dancing girls to perform here.

For Kim Sun, who came to the Sifang Hall for the first time, she was immediately shocked by its magnificence, and it was the first time she had seen such a luxurious place, more magnificent and wealthy than the palace of the king of Joseon.

Of course, one of the most important industries under the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce, the Sifang Hall in the capital represents the face of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.

Today's Kyushu Chamber of Commerce is already the first largest chamber of commerce in the Ming Dynasty, and it is rare to recruit new members to join, and the businessmen of the Ming Dynasty are all proud to join the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.

The reason why the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce can flourish in the business community of Daming has a great relationship with its complex personnel composition. In the beginning, the members of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce were mainly businessmen from Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi.

Later, Li Yuntian was transferred to the Metropolitan Inspection Yuan, and the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce began to enter the Jiangnan, Huguang and Jiangsu-Zhejiang regions, and was known as the four major chambers of commerce in Jiangnan together with the Salt Merchants Association, the Grain Merchants Association and the Cloth Merchants Association at that time.

With the promotion of Li Yuntian's official position, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce marched into Beizhili in a big way, when the Salt Merchants Association was hit hard because of the two Huai Salt Road cases, especially the prosperity of Daming's overseas trade, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce finally completed the layout of the whole territory of Daming, and became the head of the Daming Chamber of Commerce.

To be precise, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce has become a giant existence in the Ming business community, unlike the traditional chamber of commerce that operates a single business, the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce has emptied all the businesses on the market, from grain, cloth to needlework, sauce and vinegar, which can be said to control the economic lifeline of the Ming Dynasty.

It stands to reason that the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce must have been suspicious of the imperial court for such a large size, but unfortunately no one in the court has any criticism of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.

The reason is very simple, a large part of the business of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce belongs to the families of the Chinese martial arts members of the DPRK, although the imperial court ordered officials not to do business, but this is not difficult at all for those high-ranking officials and dignitaries, just find a relative or an outsider to come forward.

The business of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce has brought huge economic benefits to the powerful people in the court, and it is a legitimate business income, so it has naturally been supported by the civil and military officials, and no one will go to trouble the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.

What is particularly important is that Li Yuntian has established a sound management and taxation system, and used the Ming Commercial Bureau and the Tax Bureau to manage the commercial affairs of the world, which made the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce not only prosper the economy of the Ming Dynasty but also brought huge taxes to the country, and would not break away from the control of the imperial court.

The reason why the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce will not break away from the control of the imperial court is because many people in the Daming Commercial Bureau and the Tax Bureau are the children of the royal family and the nobles, and Li Yuntian deliberately delegated power in order to avoid being suspicious of the outside world.

In his opinion, as long as he honestly abides by the rules of the Daming Commercial Bureau and the Tax Bureau, then he does not mind appointing people from various factions in the capital as officials, which can also alleviate many obstacles in the court.

Li Yuntian attaches great importance to the supervision of the Daming Commercial Bureau and the Taxation Bureau, to prevent people from taking advantage of their power to fake public welfare and embezzlement and bribery, and he has never been soft on this point, as long as anyone is found to have violated discipline, he will immediately punish him severely.

The various factions in the capital did not dare to have any complaints about this, in the final analysis, Li Yuntian did this for the benefit of the Ming Dynasty, not against anyone.

Moreover, it is very rare for Li Yuntian to give up those positions in the Daming Commercial Bureau and the Tax Bureau, and no one wants to anger Li Yuntian.

After Hongzhu's secret introduction, Kim Sun met many dignitaries and nobles in the Sifang Hall, especially those wealthy businessmen, as if everyone was rich enough to rival the country, more than the treasury of the Korean state.

In fact, those big businessmen did have more money than the Korean treasury, and the Korean country's tax revenue mainly depended on agriculture and ginseng cultivation, and the annual consumption of local government yamen alone was a huge amount of money, so where was there any surplus money in the treasury, maybe not as rich as a wealthy local rich man in the Jiangnan area.

It was under such circumstances that no one realized that Li Yuntian would look at the barren Korean state, and wouldn't it be worth the loss if he annexed such a country?

Therefore, not to mention Park Sam-taek and Kim Sun, even Li Yao and Li Jue would never think of Li Yuntian's true intentions for the Joseon State, and thought that the Ming Dynasty wanted to support one of the two to ascend the throne of the Joseon king.

Facing those high-ranking officials and magnates in the Quartet Hall, Jin Shan was a little dazzled for a while, he didn't know which person to start with, and he didn't think of a way to get close to those people, how could those high-ranking officials and nobles be so easy to see!
