"Okay, it's good that the crime is in the present time, but the merit will be in the future."
"Recalling the past, the King of Qin conquered Liuhe and unified the world. The writings were written with the same text, and the carriages were running on the same track. Only then can we have the orthodoxy of Xia today."
"Nowadays, China has gone through the Wuhu Rebellion and has been fragmented for nearly a hundred years BC. We have worked hard and set up strict rules and etiquette systems in order to recreate the orthodoxy of China."
"It's a pity that we are getting old and can't make trouble anymore. It is no longer possible to continue to enlarge the territory and expand the territory."
"Our eldest son is a scholar, and he has kindness in his heart. He is different from us. I thought that was the case, but now it seems that it may not be the case."
"Dasun, the ideas we didn't achieve back then must be pinned on you."
Zhu Yuanzhang first applauded loudly. From the bottom of his heart, who could not long for a larger territory?
But as he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang began to sigh a little.
Looking back on the ambitions of the past, after governing the Ming Dynasty, it was very different from what he imagined.
After becoming the home of the Ming Dynasty, I realized that maintaining such a large territory requires immeasurable effort. At present, it is difficult for the entire Ming Dynasty to support expeditions outside the territory.
Zhu Yuanzhang slowly lost his mind.
But now, it's different.
As far as Zhu Yuanzhang can see now, under the leadership of Da Sun, the internal funds are abundant. With the sweet potatoes and other crops brought by Da Sun, the people of Ming Dynasty can avoid starving to death.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt the same way about his eldest grandson's blazing ambition.
And after hearing what the old man said, Zhu Ying's heart was filled with passion.
He understood the meaning of the old man's words. It started with the First Emperor, which was a reminder to himself. He felt that he also had hope for the achievements that the First Emperor was able to accomplish.
All this is simply because the current Ming Dynasty is young, and his future heir is also very young.
Zhu Ying's throat rolled, and she wanted to say a few words, but in the end, she held back.
No words were spoken, but the eyes said everything.
I only thought secretly in my heart: I want everyone under the light of the sun and the moon to be my great Ming Dynasty!
...
On the bank of Qinhuai River, there is Ping An Tea House.
Zhu Ying has not been here for a long time. Currently, the main people in charge of the teahouse are Zhang Bo and Zhang San.
Zhang San is now Zhu Ying's personal guard, but Zhu Ying does not let him stay with him in the palace every day. Instead, he goes to the Ping'an Tea House to stay here.
Only when Zhu Ying goes out of the palace will she follow him.
Today's Ping'an Tea House is particularly lively.
It's not that there are so many customers, the teahouse is closed today, mainly for the auction of quotas.
This quota is naturally related to the quota for the fifth factory of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce.
If you want to get a place, you first need a large deposit, and then you have to bid for the place.
Of course, the treasure money used in this bidding can also be used as the principal for purchasing shares.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, these people are almost here. Let's start quickly. Brothers are all impatient."
"Yes, all the shopkeepers of chambers of commerce from all over the world are here. What are you waiting for?"
"The rules are rules, but you have to be flexible. It's such a hot day, and the brothers are very upset."
According to the time given by the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, it will take about half an hour to start.
The chambers of commerce that had long wanted to join naturally arrived early and are now urging them.
The whole scene was noisy.
"Those who are unruly and dare to make noise again will be expelled from the teahouse and disqualified from this bidding."
How could Uncle Zhang be so used to it? He shouted loudly, and the teahouse suddenly became extremely quiet.
The shopkeepers who come here are all puppets in front of the stage, and they are subject to the arrangements of the master behind them. If they are kicked out because of a few quarrels and miss the bidding, they will not be killed if they go back.
Seeing the scene that had calmed down, Uncle Zhang nodded slightly. Currently in the capital, the Qunying Chamber of Commerce is a golden sign. Anyone with some connections knows that it belongs to His Royal Highness.
If you don't follow the rules, let Jinyi Weijiao teach you what the Ming Dynasty's rules are.
Zhang San, in particular, has already taken a temporary position in Jinyiwei. He is at the level of a governor, and he is still the kind of person who does not have to go to work in name. Including those subordinates who were imprisoned by Jinyiwei before, all of them are officials of Jinyiwei.
Even the smallest one is at the level of a hundred households.
This is just the beginning. Everyone knows that when His Highness the Grand Sun succeeds to the throne of the emperor, the official positions of these people's personal guards will definitely be promoted.
As a businessman, with his current status, what does he mean in the capital?
Uncle Zhang looked at the shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce below and began to explain the rules of bidding.
These rules are just commonplace, and they are probably some of the bidding arrangements that are about to begin. The so-called highest bidder gets it. The more bids you make, the most shares you can buy.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, I have something unclear. What is the meaning of anonymous bidding? Could it be that if I bid how much money I paid, I can't let others know? Or maybe there is some suspicion of secret operation."
After hearing the rules, a shopkeeper immediately stood up and asked.
It turns out that in the narration just now, Uncle Zhang talked about a different bidding method, changing oral bidding to written bidding. This is not all. After the bidding is completed, the bidding auction has ended. All the merchants need to do is to wait for the heroes. Door-to-door notification from the Chamber of Commerce.
This method is unheard of for all the businessmen sitting here.
The fact that the information is not disclosed means that the Qunying Chamber of Commerce can completely control the final result at will.
As a result, it is naturally impossible to convince the public.
But does Uncle Zhang need to convince the public?
Looking at the shopkeeper, Uncle Zhang said bluntly: "You are the representative of the Zhejiang merchants. If you think there is a problem with this proposal, you can go out now."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper from Zhejiang Merchant said quickly: "No, no, I'm just asking casually. Of course I don't mean to question it. I'm just being rude. Please forgive me, Shopkeeper Zhang."
Everyone thought they were going to watch a good show, but they didn't expect that this Zhejiang businessman's bones were so soft and he was defeated in just one sentence.
Uncle Zhang looked at everyone's reactions, thought for a moment and then explained: "Let me just say a few words. This is also the meaning above. Everyone here must also understand it."
"I dare not say too much. Everyone knows the current situation of businessmen. We all do business honestly and do not engage in speculation. However, the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty are like this, and it cannot be changed all at once."
"Everyone who comes to support me this time has some thoughts in mind. I can definitely tell you that your thoughts are somewhat meaningful to the higher-ups."
"So the quota for this batch is also a top priority. The key is not just the treasure, but also the impact in all aspects."
"You are all well aware of the dirty things involved in doing business these days. There is no need for me to say more. The anonymity is not for the benefit of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce. To a greater extent, it is also to protect you."
"If something really happens, or there is a conflict between a certain chamber of commerce, and the situation is ruined and the reputation is ruined, I don't need to say more about the result."
"After all, that's what it means. You can convey the original words to me. If you want to rely on this reputation to do whatever you want, you are afraid of what the superiors mean, but it's not that simple."
"Okay, no more chatting, the time is almost here, let's get ready to start."
Listening to Uncle Zhang's words, the eyes of the shopkeepers below were rolling around.
In fact, the price is so high, even though it is His Highness the Grand Sun, the risk is still very high. The reason why he is flocking to it is because of his status as a businessman.
Don't underestimate such a status. Even if it means most of the family property, if they can get protection, many businessmen will be willing to provide it.
These days, businessmen are nothing in front of the officials. Even if there are people behind them, they don't dare to rush out to challenge them. Who doesn't know that what His Majesty hates the most is businessmen.
Now that His Highness Taisun has finally released some rumors, even if it is just a vague speculation, many big businessmen are willing to give it a try.
Although Uncle Zhang's words were not fully understood, it was clear to everyone who was present and could represent the Chamber of Commerce behind him that he was not a human spirit.
The method of adding sweet dates with a big stick also made these businessmen start to be obedient.
Everything is going smoothly and orderly.
At this time, it was slowly approaching dusk, and it was almost time for the dinner.
In the palace of King Qin, many vassal kings gathered together.
"It's been many years since we brothers went our separate ways. It's been too long since we've been together."
In the lobby of Prince Qin's Mansion, Zhu Xi looked at these brothers and said with some sigh.
These familiar faces can be said to have grown up together, in the same military camp, the same teacher, and the same place.
They were once children, but now they have become feudal kings who control one side.
"Second brother is right. We must get drunk at the dinner party, haha."
Upon hearing this, the Seventh Prince Qi King Zhu Shu immediately spoke in line with the Tao.
It can be seen from these words that the relationship between everyone is actually quite good.
Even the King of Yan, Zhu Di, nodded with some regret.
After all, they all grew up together, and the conflict was only between Zhu Di and Zhu Fan.
Looking at all the younger brothers sitting at the head of the table, Qin King Zhu Ping, the leader of all the kings, said: "This time, all the younger brothers are invited to my elder brother's house for dinner. I think they all know it. It is our eldest nephew's intention." .”
"The eldest nephew is now regarded as the great grandson. From now on, all of us, the emperor's uncles, will also be his ministers."
"There are a few younger brothers who are not very familiar with the eldest nephew. The third brother, the fourth brother, and the fifth brother all know the eldest nephew relatively well. The one with the best relationship among them, I think everyone knows it, so naturally the fourth brother Brother."
Zhu Di's face darkened when his second brother mentioned his relationship with Zhu Ying.
He knew that the second brother had no other intentions. Although the second brother and the third brother had a good relationship, no one had ever tried to stand against the brothers.
Everyone knows that personal grievances are resolved individually.
Although Zhu Di was a little unhappy, he could only endure it in front of so many brothers.
"Fourth brother, I won't say anything else. Does His Highness Taisun mean to take away all our military power this time? All brothers know the current situation in the army. His Highness Taisun's reputation is at its peak. Just like my father."
"If we accept military power, let me explain this clearly first. Designation is not possible. In the worst case, I will go talk to my father. Even if I get scolded, I will go."
King Zhu Shu of Qi did not shy away and asked directly.
It has to be said that many of Zhu Yuanzhang's sons have very similar personalities.
On several occasions outside the Great Wall, King Zhu Shu of Qi also participated and achieved many military exploits. He was similar to his brothers Zhu Di, Zhu Pang and Zhu Fan. He had always been proud of his military exploits.
Except for his father, he really doesn't give face to anyone. His behavior is similar to that of Zhu Ping before, but he has not reached the level of cruelty of Zhu Ping before.
My own hobbies are similar. I like to lead troops in war and long for military glory.
Even before arriving, when I was notified, I had made some guesses about my eldest nephew's purpose this time, and I had been thinking about it.
Hear this.
Zhu Xiang and Zhu Fan looked at each other subconsciously.
They had talked about this issue before.
Just when Zhu Ping was about to think about how to answer, a shrill voice came from outside the door: "His Royal Highness Taisun is here!"
Zhu Xi stood up quickly and said, "Brothers, please come with me to greet him."
Naturally, the vassal kings did not dare to neglect. No matter what purpose His Highness Taisun had this time, it was related to their future lives.
Even the somewhat arrogant Qi King Zhu Shu quickly restrained himself.
They are all leading soldiers. How can anyone not know His Highness Taisun's prestige in the army, let alone his father's favor?
No one would go against His Highness the Grand Sun.
When many feudal kings came to the door, Zhu Ying had already walked in.
"The emperor's nephew pays homage to all uncles."
