Someone said that Xu Qian was mentioned, and everyone was silent.

Because Lord Xu has not heard any news so far, and there are even rumors in the market that although Lord Xu has entered the household department, he seems to have sat on a cold bench in the Beijing Division.

The rights of the household department are divided into two, and the book of the household department is hindered everywhere, but I am afraid that at this time, even Lord Xu will not be able to save them.

Some people couldn't help but lament: "Last month was still smooth sailing, I can't imagine how much effort has become a catastrophe, we who do business, after all, our arms can't beat our thighs, how people want to clean us up, it's not just a matter of words." ”

This sentence struck the sore spot of many people, and many people couldn't help but be silent in their hearts.

It is a well-known thing that businessmen are cheap, but what is the way to be cheap, they have been like this for thousands of years, and everyone has long been accustomed to being obedient. After all, not long ago, under the protection of some big people, everyone's life was quite good, and even many people became shareholders of the Money and Grain Bureau, and they could also speak something in various yamen in Zhejiang, and some local officials also regarded them as guests.

This feeling is really good, not only do you have no worries when doing business, but also feel better and better, especially in some prefectures and counties in Zhejiang, because of the inconvenient transportation, the demand for businessmen is huge, but whenever there are businessmen who reveal their willingness to go out there to do business, they will immediately have the same knowledge in the prefecture and county, the master book personally entertained, extremely courteous.

But this sweetness has not been tasted yet, and all of them have come to naught, and it is not known whether the officials who once entertained them can keep the black yarn hat. The new officials, however, could already anticipate that they would be vicious when the time came. Because the recent actions of the imperial court are very obvious, this is aimed at them. Not only is it aimed at them, but it is more like unloading the mill and killing the donkey, not putting them to death, and never giving up.

These businessmen are like newborn babies, who have not tasted the sweetness, but may not have realized the taste of sweetness, but once they taste it, they will lose it immediately, and their psychology at this time has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Hatred!

If it was numbness before. So now, it is a bitter hatred, if it weren't for them, how could they force everyone's family to ruin, Shinong and industrialist, what kind of high and low, is it wrong to earn silver?

Why should you ask for a decree that will leave us dead without a place to bury? and why should we dispose of and plunder our money?

The seeds of hatred have been inadvertently planted in everyone's hearts. Everyone didn't dare to speak up, didn't dare to criticize loudly, the courage of the businessman. It was much smaller than the scholars, who had to earn fame by laughing and scolding. is also pretentious and high-minded, and can command and command. But no matter how much they complain, they only hide it in their hearts.

In Ruyi Fang, there are also a lot of unusual people, most of them are Wang Xue's celebrities, some are employed by Ming Pao and Shang Pao, and now there is such a big news, the newspaper naturally wants to get first-hand information, but also want to see their reactions.

It's just that at this time, these compilers and celebrities are also silent, Wang Xue is a new learning, and the greatest benefit of new learning is that it is not perfect, and the perfection of theory is often based on reality, what Cheng dù the reality has reached, and the theory will naturally come to what Cheng dù, just like the Qin and Han dynasties could never give birth to science, because education at that time was often monopolized by the family clans, and many ideas of science were not accepted by the family families, and now, these Wang Xue Confucians heard the words at this time and saw the scene in front of them, There seems to be some realization in my heart.

In the evening, the editor of a Ming Pao wrote the following words based on the experience of the day: "Nowadays, all these things are lowly and lowly businessmen, and they are allowed to be manipulated by others, how can they be accomplished? Commerce and trade involve people's livelihood, and the only way to prosper is to get rid of the old political ......"

A 'great rebellion' was written on paper.

Cabinet.

The latest news came, and these news were enough to inspire people, the governor Wang Daozhong had already taken control of the situation, and some officials in Zhejiang began to be summoned, and under the pressure of the governors, they no longer dared to disobey the imperial court and the governor's yamen.

Wang Daozhong confidently guaranteed that within one month, there will be no new deal in Zhejiang, and the commercial tax can also be collected, and it is expected that the commercial tax of the three provinces of Zhejiang this year can be as high as tens of millions of taels of silver.

This news is very encouraging, tens of millions of taels of silver, this is still a conservative estimate, as soon as the silver is collected, not only the new deal is sluggish, but also can solve the current problems of the imperial court, and a large amount of silver is no longer just sent to the palace, nor is it handed over to the household department, but firmly controlled in the hands of the tax supervisor yamen, indirectly, only in the three provinces of Zhejiang, there are tens of millions of taels of silver in the hands of Yang Tinghe.

This is definitely something to celebrate, and after that, the cabinet will no longer have to look at people's faces.

It's just that there are also many officials in Zhejiang, especially the officials in Nanjing, who have made a lot of mistakes, saying that such a barbaric collection of commercial taxes is a great malpractice, that is, the Nanjing Hubu Shangshu, and the Lord of the Ministry of Rites who does not deal with Xu Qian, all wrote at this time, saying that although Zhizhejiang can levy 30 million commercial taxes, but because the imperial court allows local officials to levy taxes in various names, Zhizhejiang is afraid that the collection of silver will exceed 60 or 70 million taels of silver, and the imperial court in order to get 30 million commercial taxes. However, it has caused a loss of nearly 100 million silver, and it is definitely not a good thing to fish with all its might, and it is requested that the cabinet suspend the collection of commercial taxes and implement it after careful investigation and the drawing up of more appropriate regulations.

Whether you are a scholar or a scholar, as long as you are in Jiangnan, you can feel the changes after the promulgation of the imperial court's will, and these changes, but anyone who has a little conscience, knows that it is absolutely impossible, which not only touches the interests of the new government officials and businessmen, but also involves the interests of tens of millions of people in Zhejiang.

In this regard, Yang Tinghe did not make a sound.

But he sighed.

Yang Yiqing said: "Why did Yang Gong sigh. ”

Yang Tinghe's face remained unchanged, and he said: "Such a tax is indeed inconsiderate, and it is not a long-term way. ”

This charter was drafted by Yang Yiqing, and Yang Tinghe now feels that it is so inappropriate, but it makes Yang Yiqing a little embarrassed.

In fact, this is not Yang Yiqing's lack of ability, but his understanding of Zhizhejiang is purely a peep in this tube, think about it, a cabinet minister, the impression of this Zhizhejiang is still more than ten years ago, I don't know what changes have taken place in Zhizhejiang, let alone how to implement the new policy at the local level, his so-called charter, completely rely on his own decades of experience to preside over the completion, how can it be possible to prescribe the right medicine.

Moreover, in a sense, Yang Yiqing's charter was originally aimed at the New Deal, and his position was the opposite of Zhizhejiang, and it was impossible to expect any benefit to Zhizhejiang.

Yang Tinghe's eyes immediately became firm: "But even so, it's still that sentence, long pain is better than short pain, so much, it's for the sake of the country and the people, so no matter what you do, no matter what the consequences will be, it's okay." By the way, what has Xu Qian done recently. ”

Yang Yiqing said strangely: "Recently, it has been a duty, maybe it is because the Metropolitan Procuratorate is keeping an eye on it, and in addition, it is reported that His Majesty asked him to supervise the construction of the new palace, so he has no time to come out and mess around in his busy schedule." ”

"Shingu is it?" Yang Tinghe suddenly laughed and said: "It's no wonder, I'm afraid that he should be anxious now, the old man still thinks that he is thinking about some conspiracy again, for fear that he will suddenly become a branch, and now it seems that he can sit back and relax." ”

Yang Yiqing was confused and said, "Why is this?" ”

Yang Tinghe said lightly: "The strangeness of this new palace is not small, the things involved in it are too complicated, even the old man, he doesn't dare to get involved, he is afraid of getting into trouble, and this Xu Qian, I'm afraid that it will be uncomfortable now, he is young after all, if he is in cahoots with those people, who can guarantee that he will not be exposed in the future, the emperor's heart is unpredictable, since he is allowed to supervise, if he is negligent at this time, it will be difficult to guarantee that he will not settle accounts in the future." But if he adheres to his own position, he will inevitably offend many people involved, do you know how much the Great Gao Xuan Hall was embezzled last time? At least one and a half million tattoos of silver, and now, it is a new palace, and the benefits are even greater, think about it, if Xu Qian is in the way of people's wealth, will he have a good end? Presumably at this time, he was also hesitant, no matter what choice he made, his life would not be easy. Very well, this could not be better, we do our business, he does his business, at most...... At most, within a month, the pattern of the world, will change, at that time, there is no Zhizhejiang to rely on, the old man wants to see, he is still the head of the book, how can he stand up to the waist pole, however, we can not be careless, the surname Xu has always been scheming, to say hello to the people below, let them stare at it, there are also many people in the household, swaying, let them pass some news, the old man should keep abreast of his movements, in case of accidents. ”

Yang Yiqing breathed a sigh of relief, originally thought that Yang Tinghe blamed him for the regulations were too rough, it turned out that Yang Tinghe had another idea, listening to Yang Tinghe's words, Yang Yiqing's spirit was shocked, and said: "Yes, don't be careless, this month is the most critical, if you make a slight omission, you will lose everything."
