"Impossible, this is impossible. The Ministry of Commerce has not been established yet. It is just a memorial. Why are those businessmen so obedient?"
"This prince doesn't believe it."
When Zhu Tai got the news, he didn't believe anything.
No wonder, this was a huge problem for him, but the talented man solved it easily.
How could he accept this?
Han Wenqing is actually similar, but the facts are already before our eyes.
"Tell me, prince, what is the situation now?"
Zhu Tai was obviously still unwilling and asked.
Han Wenqing replied helplessly: "In the past few days, countless businessmen have poured into Kyoto, and they are still coming in a steady stream."
"Not only that, those businessmen who originally invested in Ezhou stopped because of lack of funds. Now, with the help of many businessmen, many people have raised money. They have divided their investments into several parts and distributed them to More businessmen, less can make more.”
"Several people are building a project together, or even dozens of people are building a project together. I heard that some projects have started in Ezhou."
"And they also spontaneously called on the people in Ezhou, saying that when the Fourth Highness takes over, Ezhou will become the largest and most prosperous new city in Lichao."
Zhu Tai was about to explode, "No way, absolutely impossible."
"My father did not agree to the merchants participating in the imperial examination at all. There is no way they would be so obedient."
Han Wenqing said: "Maybe everything was designed by His Majesty and Lin Qingfeng. Only in this way, those businessmen will unite for that goal and do a good job in Ezhou."
"Or maybe they all know that Lin Qingfeng will definitely be able to board it in the future..."
The words stopped here.
But Zhu Tai's face was as white as paper.
His whole body seemed to be emptied of energy all of a sudden, and he slumped down on the chair.
I have to say that Fan Renli and Han Wenqing really thought too much, and the talented man really didn't discuss it with Lao Zhu.
He really proposed that businessmen could take part in the imperial examination.
Because the status of businessmen in this era is too low. My wife is a businessman. She is what she is today because of the support of businessmen. Isn’t it right to do something for businessmen?
But unfortunately, there were too many people in the court who opposed it.
It was too difficult to change the inherent concept in a short period of time, and he couldn't do anything about it.
Lao Zhu also symbolically removed the businessman from the untouchables, which was considered to give him some comfort.
It’s just that somehow, it became like this from passing to passing.
Of course, Lin Bai doesn’t know yet at this moment.
Violent women all have opinions. My husband is too inattentive. Where is the public food?
Fooling who?
cough!
That's too far.
The great talent is currently leading a group of new people who are busy. These people were all found with Lao Yan's help. According to the great talent's requirements, they are all people in related fields, and they are young and full of energy.
Especially following a great talent with a promising future, everyone seems to be on a roll.
Wu Qiaojun watched her husband busy from the side, her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed.
She still thinks her husband is most handsome and charming when he is busy.
"Your Highness, the people from the southwest have arrived." At this time, an entourage walked in.
"Okay! Let them in quickly."
Lin Bai was overjoyed. He finally arrived. These were all members of the Ministry of Commerce. The most important thing was that he could continue to fish after these people came.
The hard days finally have light.
After a while, a group of people headed by Xiao Wu and Xiao Buyi arrived.
Xiao Buyi used to be in charge of the greenhouse. After the establishment of the Commercial Bureau, he was sent by Lin Bai to take charge of these things. After such a long time, he has become very familiar with it.
Not to mention Xiaowu.
Since Lin Bai went to the southwest, she has been in charge of the discussion group, and she knows all the matters best.
Although she belongs to the Feilong Guard, she was asked to come over by a great talent.
Moreover, this girl is from Feilongwei, so she doesn’t know what she is like. It’s not safe to put her in the southwest. It would be better to put her in Kyoto.
"I have met His Highness!"
The group of people saluted quickly.
"good!"
The great talent said a few words of encouragement as a prelude.
In fact, needless to say, these people all look eager to try.
Except for Xiao Wu, everyone looks like a seasoned person at first glance.
Too! After all, he was one of the four major commanders of the Feilong Guard, but these people who had just entered the officialdom could not compare.
However, the talented man didn't care about this and said, "I believe everyone is a little curious about the Commercial Department, so I will briefly tell you about it."
"The Ministry of Commerce and the Six Ministries will be juxtaposed. The Six Ministries will also be cancelled, and there will be seven Ministries in the future."
This sentence alone was enough, and everyone seemed excited.
Lin Bai continued: "The Ministry of Commerce has a minister and two deputy ministers. You can understand them as the minister and the left and right ministers. They are more or less the same."
That's right!
Xiao Qi was also captured by the imperial brother. Because he was in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was no stranger to related matters, so...
"As for the other deputy minister, it's Xiao Wu."
Lin Bai looked at Xiao Wu, who had a surprised look on his face. He probably never imagined that he would become the deputy minister for no reason, but no one had much reaction. After all, Xiao Wu himself was one of the four commanders of the Flying Dragon Guard.
"The Ministry of Commerce has temporarily set up three departments. The first is the Commerce Bureau, which is headed by the Seventh Princess and assisted by Xiao Buyi..."
Lin Bai briefly talked about the responsibilities of the Commerce Bureau.
Everyone in Southwest is already very familiar with it, but the newcomers here in Kyoto still know little about it.
Lin Bai was not in a hurry and took his time.
"The second department is the Supervision Bureau, which is headed by Xiaowu..."
The responsibilities of the regulatory bureau are similar to those of the previous commercial supervision team, so Xiaowu naturally takes it easy.
"As for the third department..."
Halfway through his words, another follower walked in.
"Your Highness, many businessmen have come from outside, asking to see Your Highness."
merchant?
Lin Bai was startled for a moment. The meeting hadn't ended yet. What were these businessmen doing here?
"A lot?" he asked subconsciously.
The attendant nodded, "There are so many, they are all surrounding the door."
What do you mean? Want to rebel?
Lin Bai was confused.
have to! Let’s meet first! See what they're up to.
The talented man has been very busy these days, so he is not very clear about the merchant's movements. Although he has heard some, he does not take it seriously.
But at this moment, when he walked out of the door and saw the dense crowd outside, he was still shocked.
Damn it, are all the businessmen here? Are there so many businessmen in Kyoto?
If the commercial sector is blocked, this may not really be a rebellion.
"Your Highness is out!"
When the crowd saw him, everyone became very excited, as if they were seeing a relative.
"I have met His Highness!"
Everyone saluted in unison.
Lin Bai asked directly: "There are so many of you, and the Ministry of Commerce is surrounded. What do you want to do?"
…
