Dai Demin suddenly appeared in Yangzhou and came directly to the Dai family.
Wandering around the door of the Dai family's old house, when the Dai family members came out, he spat viciously at the door.
"Tell Dai Dehai a message. The fleet is just the beginning. I will smash the Dai family bit by bit."
His face was arrogant and sinister. The Dai family members wanted to take him, but were stopped by two sergeants.
"He is now under the protection of the government. What are you going to do?" the sergeant said forcefully.
"That yamen of yours? He stole something from the Dai family. I want to arrest him now."
The Dai family members were not only tyrannical but also very clever, and used lawsuits against officials. No matter what means are used, just keep Dai Demin.
The Dai family in Yangzhou are no weaklings.
"Shenji Camp, just try moving." The two soldiers said arrogantly.
Ever since Xu Qin played with the second-grade officers with fire guns, the soldiers from the Shenji Battalion felt windy when they walked out.
Now they are waiting for someone to mess with them. In this regard, Zhang Fu, the Duke of Ding, is both happy and miserable. These soldiers are absolutely howling now, and they are full of energy in pointing out where to hit.
But all of them are like thorns, and no one looks down on them. They seem to think that the Shenji Camp is the first among the three major camps in the capital.
This is the attitude of the two sergeants now.
The people of the Dai family looked at the proud Dai Demin and wished they could eat him alive. But I really don’t dare.
It’s not that Shenji Camp has a bad reputation in Yangzhou. But they knew that Shenji Camp was related to the young master.
And now the person that the Dai family cannot offend the most is him.
So I could only watch Dai Demin leave in a hurry, and quickly sent someone to deliver the letter to the capital.
At the same time, Dai Deqing was appointed as the head of the seventh rank and temporarily followed Wei Chu, who was in charge of Shibo.
After arriving, he began to deliberately build relationships, and soon became involved with people like Shi Bosi.
Xu Qin has been completely lying down recently. As long as no one is looking for him, he will not go out. When you go out, you can go fishing directly on the boat.
Dayindu was left to Xia Zifu to manage. Rather than being the doctor of Haifansi, it was better to say that he was Xia Zifu.
Everything was going on in full swing, and gradually everyone got used to not looking for him.
The weather gets warmer in March and the mountains become greener. Xu Qin took his two maids out for an outing, and they got along well recently. Guan Guan and Wanwan's relationship with him gradually warmed up.
The two identical little beauties got to know his temperament better and better, and sometimes they would deliberately change their clothes to let him guess who was who?
The old woman who was waiting on them also came with the boat. But Xu Qin always had a thorn in his heart. Two Jinyi guards were acting as spies, and they might not know anything about the Dai family.
If you talk in your sleep or say something that you shouldn't say, it will be troublesome for them to hear you. So up to now, I have refrained from breaking the melon for two people.
The excuse was to develop their relationship slowly, so the two beauties just let it take its course. Anyway, no one is competing with them now.
Half a month ago, Shi Wenxin suddenly took a thousand sailors to Poyang Lake for training.
Hu Ying also took three thousand recruits to leave Liujiagang and follow Shi Wenxin for training. Said it needed to be adjusted.
Xu Hao transferred a thousand people from the urban management brigade and sent them to Luo Zhong's military camp for training. There are 1,500 people in Luo Zhong's military camp.
Then another thousand urban management personnel were recruited locally. These people were in the urban management brigade and first received basic queue training. For reserve use.
Xu Qin's money was spent like running water. Zhu Di alone took more than two million taels.
Thousands of soldiers are a big number in terms of military pay and supplies. Fortunately, the ones who have regained their health have finally arrived.
Last year, the tribute trade ships came back one after another, and the Shipping Department began to draw one out of ten, and even some products that were in high demand were drawn three out of ten.
Moreover, these products can only be sold in places designated by Haifansi. The merchants in Nanjing are the most confused now.
Because of the fleets of Royal Silver and Enshe Quyang, as soon as the goods landed, they were booked by merchants from Yangzhou and Fujian in the south.
Businessmen from all over the country came and took away from them, and once they changed hands, they made huge profits.
The goods taken away were given to Kanhe and allowed to be resold.
There was no place to unload the ships of the merchants of Enshe Qiangchang after they docked. They had no place to stand here. If the goods don't land, there's no way to sell them.
Fatty Zhu is the only exception.
Both sons worked under Xu Qin. He has the best piece of land next to the pier, and the store is already half-finished according to the design.
The goods coming back from overseas go into huge warehouses as soon as they get off the ship. Busy going in and out of business every day.
The merchants who set up a sales market in Nanjing were embarrassed. They did not dare to sell elsewhere. If they were caught, they would be in violation of the maritime ban, but their homes would be confiscated and their families would be destroyed.
There are only two ways to go, either bow to Xu Qin.
But you can only bow your head when you see people, and now you can't see Xu Qin at all. How cold and indifferent he was in Nanjing back then has paid such a heavy price now.
When Fatty Zhu invested in Xu Qin, he was collectively squeezed out by Nanjing businessmen, and there was even a tendency that he could no longer stay in Nanjing. Now, people are making money in high spirits, and they are watching from the water.
Businessmen are used to discussions, but they didn't expect Xu Qin to be so vindictive that he wouldn't discuss it at all.
They could fight Xu Qin, but these goods couldn't wait. Seeing the hot pie right in their mouths, they salivated but couldn't eat it.
For businessmen, profit is life, and now Xu Qin is killing them.
That is the second way, to sell the goods directly to Yangzhou and Fujian merchants by ship. But they are even more unwilling.
Why should I bow to them? I clearly had the upper hand. Why should I share it with them?
But now they are not the only ones who have sea goods, because there are no restrictions on paying tribute, and the overseas Tibetan countries that came back with the ship have brought more sea goods.
These people don’t know much about Daming’s market, so they are easy to deceive. Especially there are some new small countries that have taken notice.
Merchants from Yangzhou and Fujian have opened their fangs and mouths towards these goods. Nanjing merchants can only be greedy, and everything is in vain if they can't get to the shore.
This was not over yet, Xu Qin threw a second noose.
The Ministry of Maritime Affairs issued another decree stating that no matter whether goods are exported or imported, gold, silver and copper coins are not allowed to be traded in the future.
You can only use silver notes from the Ming Dynasty Royal Silver Account, which means that if you want to trade, you must deposit real money into the Royal Silver Account and then use the silver notes to trade.
After the transaction is completed, if you want to take away the money, you can directly exchange it with the banknote.
Only then did Fatty Zhu remember that when Xu Qin gave him the Ming Dynasty Royal Banknotes, he had said that no one would give these banknotes to anyone.
It turns out that this was arranged just for today. The young man is so interesting. If he doesn't know how to do this, he's a fool.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he used the banknotes in his hand to take advantage of the goods of several ships.
Yangzhou merchants and Fujian and other southern merchants took action upon hearing the news, and deposited a total of more than three million taels of gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty Royal Silver in one day.
They not only want to devour these seafood. They even waited for Nanjing businessmen to come to their doorsteps when they were desperate.
On the shore of Haifansi were merchants holding silver notes to buy marine goods, while the goods of Nanjing merchants were floating on the water.
It was as if the Nanjing businessmen were already lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
On a large ship, all the businessmen who opened a business gathered here, all with sad faces.
"Xu Qin is too much. Everything can be discussed. Why is he so heartless?" The silk merchant slapped the table angrily.
He didn't have the confidence to say this. He didn't think of discussing it when Xu Qinhao was talking in Nanjing.
"This man is like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard. How dare he offend the lords of the dynasty and end up living alone! Sooner or later he will die a happy death."
The spice merchant said through gritted teeth.
Those who used money to feed the backers in the court did not say anything, but His Majesty refused to let go, and Xu Qin ignored them, which was useless.
"Without him, Butcher Xu, we would still be eating pigs with hair on them. I was forced to send these goods to the south..."
One of the iron merchants said angrily.
With just one word from him, everyone automatically distanced themselves from him. Like he had dog shit on him.
The iron merchant immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, which made people suspect that he was related to the smuggler. The south is the territory of smugglers.
"I said the wrong thing. I said the wrong thing. Aren't I anxious to get angry? We are serious businessmen and have great careers. How can we do anything illegal or prohibited?"
The iron merchant quickly explained.
"To tell you the truth, what does Xu Qin think of us?" said one of the businessmen with two mustaches.
Everyone present was silent. The greediness of a wolf-hearted and dog-like person is not due to ignorance. On the contrary, everyone has the same mind.
It's just that the saint is not willing to listen to the heart-breaking words. Not to mention these profit-seeking businessmen.
"What do you want to say, to make us repent? Or can it solve the problem at hand?" The silk merchant had a cold face and a bad tone.
The bearded businessman turned a blind eye to his evil deeds.
"I have carefully read Xu Qin's design drawings, and have also walked through Liujiagang in the past few days. One of the areas has not been sold yet, and it should have been reserved intentionally."
The businessman with two mustaches said.
"You mean, he left a place for us, so why didn't he see us?"
The iron merchant asked eagerly, and the others looked at each other. They didn't notice this, and couldn't help but become interested.
"The noble man has a bad temper and doesn't calm down. Xu Qin often does things based on his personal preferences, and sometimes he doesn't care about the consequences.
So it may be left for us, or it may not be. It depends on what we do. "
The businessman with two mustaches said.
"What you're talking about is nonsense. How can we calm him down when he doesn't see us? Isn't this deliberately causing problems?"
The spice merchant said angrily.
"If he doesn't see us, why don't we do nothing? There is no way to solve this matter. It depends on whether you are willing."
The bearded businessman touched his beard and said thoughtfully.
"This man, he's already in trouble, so what's the point of selling it? Hurry up and say it." The iron merchant was the most anxious.
Others also followed suit, wanting to see what he could do.
"First, deposit money into the Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty to exchange for banknotes. Although I don't understand the rules introduced by Xu Qin, it is definitely correct to save money. This is our attitude.
Secondly, Xu Qin doesn’t see us and he lives a single life. I don’t believe that the people around him will do the same? They used women and money to smash Wei Chu and Hu Ying. "
The businessman with two mustaches said.
"But what if the money goes in and out?" asked a businessman.
"No, first of all, because of the reputation of the royal family, Xu Qin doesn't dare to do this. Secondly, the silver notes can be used for maritime transactions. Anyway, if we want to do business, we have to change them sooner or later."
The satin merchant spoke up.
