Chapter 442: [Traitor]
Under Gui Cao's proposal and Zhengde's promotion, reform and opening up were finally implemented smoothly, but there was less controversy in the sky, but there was never less action in secret.
No matter how Gui Cao said it, he was also from the civil official system, his proposal was of no benefit to the eunuch group, such a big thing as opening the sea and trade, Zhang Rui, Guo Zhen and a group of eunuchs went to Zhengde to cry all day long, Duan Fei occasionally helped out, and revised Gui Cao's proposal to be more neutral, for example, Guo Zhen wanted to unify the navy to build big ships and cannons to suppress the Japanese and make meritorious contributions, Duan Fei also fulfilled his wish, but the reformed tax system was jointly managed by the cabinet and the celebrant supervisor, and everyone refused to give Guo Zhen money, Under Zhengde's intervention, he reluctantly agreed to allocate him one million taels of silver every year, which was not enough to rebuild the Jiangnan shipyard, so Guo Zhen had to grit his teeth and deduct expenses from other places, planning to do a big job.
Jin Yiwei and Dongchang have obtained the approval of Zhengde, and they can go to make money by themselves, because Duan Fei started quickly, even the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen were pulled into the water by him to invest in his business alliance fund, and established a relationship of trust with Su Youqing, Yin Dexiang and other big businessmen, so it developed rapidly, and a dividend was sent out during the New Year.
Guo Zhen also wanted to draw a scoop according to the gourd, he made a hundred industry alliance, referred to as Bailian, because the action was slow, the rich and powerful lords in the capital were almost dug up by Duan Fei, Guo Zhen had to dig out his mind to attract customers, and the tricks of pit and abduction were used, and it was common to use the power of Dongchang to force people to pay money, many businessmen have invested their money in Jinyiwei's business alliance, and they were forced to join Bailian in Dongchang, one is voluntary, one is forced, one has already taken dividends, and one seems to have thrown money into the water, not even a coo, You can imagine how everyone feels in their hearts.
However, Guo Zhen also looted a lot of silver, which was enough to support the expenses of his initial navy, and dreamed of driving a warship to smuggle after having a ship, and the profits would naturally be huge, so he would no longer have to rely on other people's money to live.
In this reform and opening up, Duan Fei's Jinyiwei didn't even get any visible benefits, and everyone was a little puzzled in their hearts, but now Jinyiwei is making money every day, and everyone has benefited from it, seeing that his big boss is busy making money every day, he thinks that his ambition is only here, and he has nothing to say.
In fact, Duan Fei is busy meeting with businessmen, deploying channels, expanding the scale of the research institute, and increasing product research and development efforts, he is also in full swing to deepen the reform of Jinyiwei, and he wants to build Jinyiwei into a more efficient and modern institution.
The organizational structure of Jinyiwei was replanned and redivided into seven departments, the War Department, the Security Department, the Research Department, the Internal Intelligence Department, the Foreign Intelligence Department, the Discipline Department, the Etiquette Department, the Logistics Department, and the Secret Department.
Among them, the warhead is headed by Hua Ming, supplemented by Jiao Xu and Jiao Yang, responsible for the training and operation of the main combat forces of Jinyiwei, and the security department has two internal and external parts, of which Zhu Yu is responsible for the external security department, Luo Chaohui is in charge of the internal security department, and the tasks of the security department are mostly confidential, such as sniping, assassination or something, and if it is not very secret, it will be handed over to the internal security department, and if it must be very secret, it will be handed over to the external security department.
The research department is still in charge of the fire man Yasan for the time being, he has been reused, and now he is grateful to Duan Fei, and the people in the research department now have a certain amount of freedom, but for the sake of safety, they must be followed by people from the internal security department when they go out, just in case, the research department has been greatly expanded, and there are five main research institutes: the Ordnance Institute, the Institute of Physics, the Institute of Chemistry, the Institute of Mathematics, and the Institute of Medicine.
Wang Zuo is in charge of the Internal Intelligence Department, Jiang Yue is in charge of the Foreign Intelligence Department, and is specifically responsible for collecting intelligence at home and abroad, Wang Ping is in charge of the Discipline Department, which is responsible for supervising the internal corruption and malfeasance of Jinyiwei, and Xie Zhijun and Shi Yufeng are in charge of the Logistics Department, which is responsible for purchasing and supplying the needs of various departments, and is also responsible for supporting when necessary, which is an extremely cumbersome and important department.
As for the secret department, its person in charge turned out to be Luo Zhicheng, a hundred households in brocade clothes who had just been promoted, and Duan Fei, the function of the secret department, was not introduced, looking at its composition and personnel, including the brocade team that protected Duan Fei and the twelve King Kongs, it seems that it is a department specifically responsible for protecting Duan Fei, but people with a little bit of brains know that this is just a disguise, and the real power of the secret department is not even known to Luo Zhicheng, because its headquarters is somewhere in Nanjing, and it is secretly controlled by He Sheng, Yue Yuqi, and Yue Yulin.
Jinyiwei has developed more rapidly after the reform again, everyone has their own responsibilities, there is a steady stream of financial support behind it, the strength of Jinyiwei is expanding rapidly in the case that outsiders are difficult to perceive, and the reform and opening up is the kind of risky thing to let others do it, Jinyiwei has money and people, this is the most important thing.
With the advent of spring, flowers are in full bloom, the French Li Marseille has also successfully developed a large number of perfume production processes, glass research and development has also been a great success, refined perfume in exquisite glass bottles, first sent a batch to the palace, the queen mother, the queen, Liu Guifei have become the first batch of French perfume, the title of potpourri high-end brand perfume suddenly became a popular fashion in Beijing, money may not be able to buy, because the production of perfume is still limited.
At this time, Duan Fei felt the need to talk to Li Masai again.
Li Masai and his two black entourages were recruited to Duan Fei again, Li Masai thought that he was here to urge to increase production again, and after seeing the salute, he preemptively said: "Dear lord, we have done our best, the output has reached the limit, and if we want to increase the production, the quality of the perfume will be difficult to guarantee, this is absolutely not allowed, if the adults feel that the money is not enough, they can increase the selling price, as far as I know, many people outside have changed hands and sold at a high price for profit." ”
Duan Fei said with a smile: "I didn't call you here to urge you to increase production, but for something else, Li Masai, you have been away from your hometown for many years, right?" I have a piece of information about France, would you like to take a look at it? ”
Li Masai was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Of course I think about it, my lord, where is the information?" ”
Duan Fei smiled and handed him a piece of paper, it was a notice printed in French, Li Masai took it and looked at it, his face turned pale, his hands trembled, and he muttered: "Impossible!" Impossible......"
The two black entourages behind him, who were illiterate, asked in French in confusion: "Master, this is a wanted warrant, who is wanted?" ”
Li Marseille said in a trembling voice in French: "Wanted traitor, former commander-in-chief of the French fleet, captain of the flagship Sun Ship Baroque, bounty of five thousand French gold coins." ”
The two black men were stunned for a moment, Duan Fei looked at them with a smile and said, "How is it?" Aren't you excited to see the news of your hometown? ”
The sad and indignant look on Li Masai's face flashed, he returned the wanted warrant to Duan Fei, and said: "My lord, this is not news, but a wanted warrant, I know the person who is wanted, I really didn't expect him to be wanted for treason with the enemy, it's really sad and indignant." ”
Duan Fei smiled, "Really? That's unfortunate, you know? This notice was taken out by an envoy from France two days ago after meeting with the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, they wanted to be friends with my Ming Dynasty, and asked us to arrest the rebels for them, the emperor has agreed, this person is named Colbe, I don't know if you have heard of it? Since he is your fellow countryman, I intend to give you a chance to meet him, and perhaps you may be able to return to France on his ship. ”
Li Marseille smiled bitterly: "Colbert is the French Chancellor of the Exchequer, how could he sail thousands of miles to the capital of the Ming Dynasty?" You don't have to be tempted, that's right, I'm the wanted former commander of the French fleet, Barak, they are the sailors of the Sun Ship, because I saved them at the beginning, so they have been following me, and now that your Excellency knows our identity, do you want to escort us back to France and earn those five thousand shoddy French gold coins? ”
Duan Fei said with a smile: "You are finally willing to admit it, although I already know that you are not ordinary gardeners, but in order to find out the identities of the three of you, I really took a lot of effort, how could the commander-in-chief of the imperial fleet become the house slave gardener of the Ming Dynasty?" Wanted by his own homeland again? ”
