,!
Zhu Ying is the grandson. Although he has not been formally canonized, the seal of the grandson has been obtained. In terms of officials, it is equivalent to having been actually conferred, but has not yet taken office.
The order issued by Taisun became a decree.
In other words, for the entire Ming Dynasty, Zhu Ying can be said to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Zhu Yuanzhang still trusted his favor, and the orders he issued, unless Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order to intercept them, would be final and the king's law.
Except for some major matters, such as the removal of ministers appointed to the third rank or higher, or relatively large rewards, or modifications to the Ming Dynasty Law, Zhu Ying already had direct power over other matters.
These relatively minor matters will not be reported to Zhu Yuanzhang immediately. There must be records. If Zhu Yuanzhang is interested, he can also check the past records to know what the great grandson has done.
When Zhu Ying left, the order to set up the factory had been granted to Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang has already obtained the help of the government by virtue of this decree.
The assistance here must be assisted, otherwise you will be punished.
There is almost no big difference between the crime of disobeying the edict and the severity of the crime.
In the afternoon of that day, Uncle Zhang went to Jinyiwei and asked Jinyiwei for help in finding a place to set up a factory.
Jinyiwei only has an official establishment of 5,600 people, but there are many branches under it. Even the lowest Jinyiwei has dozens or even hundreds of people offline.
These people work together to build a huge intelligence network, which contains everything about the capital. This is the reason why Jin Yiwei can control the capital.
"Uncle Zhang, the requirements for these sites are often a hundred acres of land. I'm afraid it's not easy to find in places like the outer city, and a new site may be needed."
"I just don't know how long His Highness Taisun has to ask for."
Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei who received him, respectfully asked Uncle Zhang.
For Uncle Zhang, almost everyone in Jinyiwei from top to bottom did not know him. If the officials had not happened to be on business today, it would not have been the turn of this thousand households to receive him.
Qianhu was secretly happy, knowing that this was an opportunity.
In fact, Uncle Zhang was familiar with this Qianhu receptionist, otherwise it would not have been his turn to receive the reception.
He was the Jinyiwei, Chen Zhi, who first discovered Zhu Ying.
When Zhu Ying went to Ping'an Teahouse, it was because he saw that the teahouse was very busy when it opened, so he went to buy some steamed buns.
Then show filial piety to a hundred households, a hundred households to a thousand households, and a thousand households to the governor Song Zhong.
Finally, Zhu Ying was discovered.
After all, Chen Zhi, a small flag officer at that time, still had some merit, but this credit was not on the table.
But in just a few months, Chen Zhi directly reached the position of Qianhu.
It can be said to be a step to the sky.
Now facing Uncle Zhang, I naturally have to do my best.
After Zhang Bo thought for a moment, he said: "His Highness did not give a specific date, but I am waiting for the errands ordered by His Highness, so the sooner the better. It is easy for His Highness to come over one day to check, and there is no movement at all. I blame him." Come down, you and I can't bear it."
Chen Zhi heard this and nodded heavily.
The Jinyiwei industry, as an institution directly under the emperor, was extremely involved.
Even if His Highness Taisun's dissatisfaction reaches the Jin Yiwei side, it will be much more serious than the officials.
It is estimated that his Qianhu family will be knocked back to its original shape in a few days.
But looking at the requirements in the document, Chen Zhi frowned.
Whether it is a brewery, textile factory, garment factory, frosting factory, etc., the required area of these places and the number of workers to be recruited are very huge.
In the past, even the Royal Eighth Bureau did not have so many people. There were no requirements even for recruiting people. As long as you are in good health, of the right age, and have no bad habits, you can sign up.
Any factory has a standard of 5,000 people, and they also need accommodation. This place is too difficult to recruit.
The only ones that meet the conditions are military camps.
But Chen Zhizong couldn't report it and asked the soldiers in the camp to give up their positions, otherwise they would be hammered to death.
Uncle Zhang drank tea quietly without any intention of urging.
He knew very well that this was a big problem at the moment, but Uncle Zhang was not very familiar with the situation in the entire capital, and was usually familiar with the streets.
When it comes to choosing a factory site, I'm blind.
Of course, this task must be handled by the people from Jinyiwei.
Chen Zhi subconsciously looked at Uncle Zhang's expression and saw that he was calm and indifferent. He knew that for him this time, it would be good and bad.
If it is done well, it is very possible to go one step further, and even his name will appear in the eyes of His Highness Taisun.
If it goes wrong, I'm afraid we may not be able to afford the consequences.
In fact, Chen Zhi has another option, which is to hand over the matter to the superiors of Jin Yiwei to handle it.
For example, Song Zhong, the governor of the town, and Jiang Zhen, the commander-in-chief of the capital.
You can’t get credit for it, but you don’t have to take responsibility either.
But Chen Zhi was unwilling. This was a huge opportunity. If he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
At this moment, Chen Zhi's mind had never been running so fast before. In the vague blur, his thick hair was falling out.
Finally, after being silent for almost a cup of tea, an idea flashed in Chen Zhi's mind and he came up with a pretty good idea.
After a moment of organizing his words in his mind, Chen Zhi said: "Looking at the requirements of these venues, currently in the entire capital, none of them meet the requirements, even if there are some large houses of similar size."
"But the layout of these houses is too messy, and it is extremely labor-intensive to transform them. The only way to build the places His Highness requested is to find some places and build them separately."
Uncle Zhang nodded when he heard this and said: "I also know that, but if it happens like this, the delay will probably be longer."
Chen Zhi immediately said what he was thinking.
"Uncle Zhang, what do you think of this? Now let's get some temporary places first. The construction of those factories is also going on at the same time. I'll look at the recruitment requirements. Even those who don't understand can enter."
"I think I will definitely need a master to lead me and be an apprentice for a while."
"Even the fastest apprentices will probably need two months to get started. With this time, the factory will definitely be built, and it won't take that long."
"By then, when the factory is completed, these apprentices will have learned enough and will be able to do things right away as soon as they enter, without much delay."
"Uncle Zhang, what do you think of this method?"
As Chen Zhi spoke, he filled Uncle Zhang's tea cup with tea.
Uncle Zhang thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, this method is quite good. I am still worrying about this matter, but I didn't expect that Chen Qianhu would give such a good method."
"It's just these temporary places. We still need Chen Qianhu's help to finalize them. The capital is too big and I can't find any land."
Chen Zhi patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhang will take care of it. There will be no problem with these things. Uncle Zhang can come over tomorrow and they can be done tonight."
Chen Zhi was already prepared to stay up late. At this point, a night without sleep was nothing. Compared with the possible future, everything had to be put aside.
Uncle Zhang was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Chen Qianhu in front of him was so powerful and could finish it tomorrow.
"Then I'll trouble Chen Qianhu."
After all, it is a good thing to settle the boss's affairs early, Zhang Bo said with a bow.
"Uncle Zhang, you're welcome. This is what a subordinate should do. I feel honored to work for His Highness the Grand Sun." Chen Zhi said politely.
Uncle Zhang nodded and left with satisfaction.
Standing outside the yamen gate, Chen Zhi, who was smiling, immediately turned serious.
He summoned a guard in royal robes and ordered: "Immediately notify all the hundred households under my command, Xiaoqi, to come to the council as soon as possible. There is an important period. Anyone who is not sleeping or is outside, please come quickly. Those who do not arrive within one hour will be severely punished!" "
At this time, the Jinyiwei who received the order started running as fast as they could.
Qianhu's tone made him understand that this was no joke.
As a messenger, you must know that if the speed is slow, the end will only be worse.
Chen Zhi walked towards the official hall where he was working, clenching his fists as he walked. It was as if he had issued a military order. If he couldn't complete it, he would be completely out of control.
Even if I risk my life, I have to finish it.
...
"Good wine! I have never tasted such strong wine in my life. There is no other wine in the world that can compare with this wine. I would like to call it the tyrant among wines."
Lan Yu looked at the wine that was clearer than water in the cup and couldn't help sighing loudly.
At this moment, he had drank three small cups in a row, not even half a bowl.
But his complexion has begun to turn slightly rosy.
"Well, this wine has no worries about sales in the market. This is the wine that the brewery I plan to open will produce. This wine is unknown. Since my uncle said that this wine is the best among wines, from now on This wine is called Ba Bar."
Zhu Ying looked at Lan Yu in front of him and said with a smile.
Today he summoned Lan Yu to Kunning Palace to discuss matters regarding the investment.
The current Qunying Chamber of Commerce has become an internal property of the royal family, and it is impossible to invest in it. The only thing that can be done is certain factories under its name.
In this regard, Zhu Ying plans to give 30% of the shares in the newly built brewery in the capital to Lan Yu, which can be regarded as making up for the vacancy that Lan Yu had before handing over all the land under his name.
"How can I still worry about not being able to sell this wine? I'm afraid there are too many people grabbing it and I won't be able to produce it at all. If this wine were in the army, I'm afraid all the soldiers would be tempted to take a sip."
Lan Yu said, picking up the wine glass and taking a sip. At first, he drank it all and almost choked to death. Now he knows how to taste it.
Regarding the 30% stake in the winery, Lan Yu had no idea and no requirements.
He didn't care how much money he could make every month. His Highness Changsun would definitely not treat him badly anyway, and that was enough.
In this regard, Lan Yu still has some ideas of her own.
Hearing Lan Yu's words, Zhu Ying frowned slightly. He suddenly remembered that if high alcohol content is not controlled, it may have a great impact on the military.
I still remember the Big Bear in my previous life. That was it. That vodka was almost a necessity for everyone. Many soldiers were already drunk on the way to charge.
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Ying said: "This wine is too strong. If it is given to the army officers and soldiers to drink happily, it will definitely cause the army to make huge mistakes."
"Especially for generals, once they are drunk, it is equivalent to the entire army becoming undefended. If they make a slight mistake, the whole army can be annihilated."
Listening to this, Lan Yu felt the same way.
My drinking capacity is considered good, but now that I have only drunk half a kilo, I am already slightly confused.
There are many soldiers in the army who are addicted to alcohol. Once they let go of control, it may lead to big mistakes.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Lan Yu couldn't help but ask.
Zhu Ying said: "Commanders in the army are not allowed to drink alcohol during war or on duty. Once discovered, they will be severely punished, including the commander-in-chief and generals. They will not escape punishment."
Zhu Ying has gradually begun to arrange pickets to enter the army to supervise and deal with matters such as conduct and discipline.
From the general to the soldiers, no one can escape.
Lan Yu nodded and had no objection to this.
He is no longer in the army anyway. Although he has a lot of connections with the army, he is still the chief governor of the Ming Dynasty Public Security Department.
In many ways, not so much thought.
On the contrary, he will also help with governance issues in the military.
Since Lan Yu resigned from the position of Zuo Governor of the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion, the court was not in a hurry to make arrangements and just left him empty for now.
After reaching an agreement, Lan Yu left. The Ming Dynasty Public Security Bureau has been busy with business recently and has too many arrangements. Lan Yu is now a very busy person and naturally has no time to stay.
With Lan Yu's body, it doesn't take long for this slight drunkenness to dissipate.
"Your Highness, the farmland handed over by Duke Liang totals 8,900 acres. With such a 30% share, I am afraid that he will be dissatisfied."
Ye Yueqing on the side said while putting away the drinking utensils.
Although there were palace maids and eunuchs to take care of things, Ye Yueqing basically took matters into his own hands.
At present, the brewery is definitely making money, but compared with the 8,900 acres of fertile land, normal people feel that the difference is too big, and only 30% of the shares are owned.
If word spreads, everyone will think that His Highness Changsun is taking advantage of it.
"You don't understand. The profits of a brewery are far from being comparable to that of eight or nine thousand acres of land. Let's put it this way, even twenty thousand acres of land is nothing compared to the 30% of the shares of the brewery. "
"Dong Liang's character is such that he won't care too much about this. If he was such a caressing person, he wouldn't be where he is today."
"Some things need to be looked at from a long-term perspective. They may not be comparable this year, and they may not be comparable next year, but in a few years, they will be completely different."
"Do you think that when I gave him 30%, you thought it was too little? No, on the contrary, I gave him too much."
"You will know this when the time comes."
Zhu Ying said leisurely that the brewery, which is equivalent to a state-owned enterprise, still takes the industrial sales route, and the profits from this are simply incalculable.
