After getting married in Xiaofei's house, the eight beauties of Qinhuai were originally divided between a certain brother, and Liu Rushi and Gu Hengbo wanted to call Kou Baimen and the other six girls sister-in-law...
Before the new emperor officially entered the house, these six women became sworn sisters. They did not want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day, but they wanted to spend whatever they wanted on the same year, the same month and the same day!
In order to compete with these six women, Queen Xue Wanqing and Imperial Concubine Liu Xier also became sisters, turning the East Palace into a battleground between the two camps.
As long as they don't harm each other or even threaten their own safety, a certain new emperor won't bother to care about this kind of thing. If there is a real conflict, it can be solved by playing mahjong.
Fortunately, apart from being petty, these eight girls didn't have any evil intentions. With their beautiful mother in charge of supervision, they were able to live in peace during the days when a certain new emperor led his troops on an expedition.
If something really happens, there is no guarantee that the new emperor will not kick out a certain woman or women after entering this door.
The woman who becomes a certain new emperor is a golden rice bowl with fine clothes and fine food, but it is not an iron rice bowl that guarantees harvest despite droughts and floods.
If you don't make a big mistake, you can be intoxicated until death.
If you make a big mistake, you may be kicked out.
In addition to such trivial matters in her own family, a certain new emperor's eldest sister Zhu Yuyao got married, and she also had to take care of her.
The foodie sister really didn't hang out in the rear mansion, so she decided not to touch the dowry of 500,000 taels of silver, and bought all the Zijin bonds, so that the couple could just sit back and eat the interest.
Twenty-five thousand taels a year, the interest alone is enough to cover the expenses of the couple and dozens of people in their house.
The red envelope of 66,000 taels of silver given by the dumpster is used as daily pocket money.
Princess Le'an, her aunt, is willing to transfer part of the shares of the media group so that Zhu Aona can live a better life outside.
Princess Le'an and his wife did not have a rich family before, so they did not want to see Zhu Aona suffer hardships at such a young age.
Since her husband's family is an ordinary person, Sun Yunqiu's annual salary is not high. If his mother's family doesn't help them more, the life of this young couple will be very miserable.
After consulting a certain royal brother, Zhu Yuluo decided to invest 50,000 taels of silver in World Media Group and purchase 10% of the shares.
After becoming a shareholder, you can also attend board meetings, which gives you something to do and a prestigious position to the outside world.
The media group holds a board meeting once a week, and Zhu Yuyao can learn some business skills from her aunt when she has time.
Although this 10% share is not a large amount, once the movie is made public and tickets are purchased and sold, the group's shares will become valuable.
The shares that Zhu Yuluo bought were all purchased from a certain new emperor. The certain new emperor did not intend to hold too many shares in the group. It was regarded as a company for a certain aunt and a certain sister to support their family.
As for the five companies that monopolize the market: Imperial Petroleum, Xianji Chemicals, Guanghui Pharmaceuticals, Thunder Electric Power, and Qianqi Department Store Group, a certain Xinhuang controls 100% of them.
In addition, it holds 80% of the shares of Daming Communications, 50% of the shares of Tailefeng Telephone Company, and 40% of the shares of the Railway Company.
A certain new emperor owns four of the gold mines in Shandong, having originally exchanged them for the imperial village.
A certain new emperor still holds 20% of the six gold mines controlled by the imperial court.
A certain new emperor holds 20% of the shares of the gold mountain to be mined outside the customs.
If these various assets are combined, a certain new emperor can be regarded as the largest tycoon in the Ming Dynasty.
Regarding land, a certain new emperor himself had no ambitions and had no intention of occupying it. The territory of the Ming Dynasty was another matter.
As for the three younger siblings - Su Yan, Liu Rushi, and Gu Hengbo, due to his relationship with Xiao Feizhai.
A certain new emperor also gave a gift, which was to spin off Wangfujing Department Store from Qianqi Department Store Group.
Each of the three younger siblings had 30% of the shares, and the remaining 10% belonged to Zhu Ainao.
The little fat house who loves to eat and wait for death will be able to eat soft food in a down-to-earth manner from now on.
There are two purposes for doing this. One is to show that at least the younger brother and younger sister must be arranged well.
Secondly, it is also for the sake of competition. If only a certain new emperor's lackey controls the two companies, sooner or later they will become a stagnant water.
Let the three siblings play around in Wangfujing Department Store and form a competitive relationship with Qianqi Department Store, so that they can further attract the consumption of the target customer group.
Competition can be divided into vicious and benign ones. After all, it is controlled by one family, so in the end it will not come to a life-or-death situation.
It's just that many products are the same as those in two supermarkets, and the prices are very different. Consumers will not only shop in one store, but at least have to go back and forth to take advantage of most of the discounts.
Since the Jiangnan area was previously affected by war, many Jiangnan merchants and wealthy gentry brought their families and families northward for the first time.
Some people feel unsafe even after passing Huai'an, so they simply seek refuge in Jining or even Beidu, where they can also see whether Beidu's development is as magical as what they read in the newspapers.
You don't know if you don't look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it. It is as curious and strange as a countryman entering the city.
There are many rickshaws here in Beidu, there are many factory guards and yamen patrolling the streets, and there are also many merchants and foreigners coming and going.
There were even more men wearing only trousers than those wearing robes. There were even women whose skirts only reached their knees, which shocked the southern visitors.
When I entered the restaurant and saw the menu, I found that the prices were not expensive, and most of them were cheaper than Nandu.
Unless there is a need for high-end drinks, a table of fish and meat meals only costs a few taels of silver.
After asking, I found out that the restaurant not only receives wealthy gentry, businessmen, officials, and scholars, but also welcomes ordinary people to come and patronize.
As long as you pay in full after the meal, you can enjoy the treatment you feel at home.
Otherwise, it can be sent to the government for verification before conviction.
Unlike other places in Beidu, beggars are not allowed in the city.
Anyone with the ability to work needs to be paid according to their work and is not allowed to go around begging.
The unemployed can go to places where workers are recruited to find work. I dare not say that there are too many, but at least they will not starve to death.
The money earned is enough to allow one to eat fish once a week. For the poor, this is a huge benefit.
If you really eat the King's meal and don't plan to pay the bill, act recklessly, or even hit someone, the government will step in to stop it.
If even the government can't control it, report it directly to a certain new emperor. A certain new emperor can even deal with dog Tatars and is not afraid of these freeloaders.
If there are people who are really disabled and unable to take care of themselves, a certain new emperor will send people to charity organizations to care for them.
Due to current limited medical conditions, these people are the carriers of the disease.
How much did it cost to combat the epidemic?
How much does it cost to raise these talents for a year!
A certain new emperor would rather adopt the policy of spreading money every year than tolerate the epidemic threatening the security of the Kifu region again.
The same is true for underage orphans, but those who are smart can choose to study for free, and those who are not so smart will go to school to learn a skill that can make a living.
But everyone who has a household registration in the city needs to have something to do, earn money, and be able to live. A certain new emperor euphemistically called it - order!
As long as you have money in your pocket, you will not panic in your heart, you will have food in your mouth, and you will not cause trouble.
For those playboys who were not short of money, a certain new emperor treated them equally.
The murderer may or may not pay with his life. Half of the murderer's wealth should be provided to the victim's family.
As a result, the dandy gangs in the capital will not dare to make mistakes easily. The cost of committing suicide is quite high.
Anyone who destroys the order created by a new emperor must pay a due price. This is the most basic rule of the game.
For these people who deliberately caused trouble, a certain new emperor also stipulated that they should not be buried in the ground after death. They should be cremated, burned to ashes, and then thrown into the sea to feed the fish.
Otherwise, he should be forced to go mining in Shandong to atone for his crime according to the sentencing level.
After setting up many restrictive measures, most of the originally dishonest people in the capital will no longer take the initiative to find trouble.
A small group of very individual guys think they can walk around the capital and dare to commit crimes against the wind.
A certain new emperor would never be lenient in dealing with these people.
One thing they still don't understand is that in the eight corners of the north, who are the good guys and who are the bad guys are all decided by a certain new emperor!
Even if these people try to cause trouble by leaving messages in the market, they will soon be suppressed by factory guards working together.
Even Huang Taiji's braided army was pushed back outside the pass, and Ming Dynasty was not far away from Guotai Min'an's goal.
A certain new emperor will not tolerate anyone doing random things under his feet. This kind of thing is like catching moths, and he cannot let down his guard every year.
After living in the northern capital for a period of time, the southern guests discovered that as long as they did not go out to eat every day and bought all the meat and vegetables to cook, the expenses of a family in the city were actually not high, and were lower than in places such as the southern capital.
Moreover, the price for buying novelty products is much lower than that in Nandu. This is a big surprise, and many people have started thinking about purchasing goods to sell in Jiangnan.
In the end, I was dissuaded by other people's well-intentioned reminders. There were only two agents in the entire south.
One is Emperor Chongzhen, and the other is a trading company established by Liu Rushi and Gu Hengbo.
After the second daughter married King Dingzhong, the southern market was dominated by Emperor Chongzhen.
Many southern merchants were still aggrieved by this, feeling that this move was a way to compete with Min for profit.
The local snakes in Beidu told them that the prerequisite for competing with Min was that they were qualified.
Emperor Chongzhen's agency was given by a new emperor. It's not impossible for you to fight for it, but you have to get the agency first.
Without this qualification, there is no right to sell novel products as an agent in the South.
The only special case is Zhenhai Gong Zheng Zhilong, who has agency rights for the entire Fujian.
The Mu family has been pacifying Yunnan for a long time, and Mu Tianbo has half of the power of agency.
In addition, the agency power of other six corners was in the hands of Emperor Chongzhen.
If you want to get a piece of it, you have to go to Emperor Haojing.
As for how much price you need to pay, it depends on whether your family is wealthy or not.
If you feel that one corner of the land is too big and one city is enough, you have to go to Emperor Chongzhen to discuss it.
Emperor Chongzhen had previously delegated the power of agency, which meant selling it. If you want to buy it, you have to buy it from this man.
There is another way, that is, to sue Emperor Haojing directly and ask for agency rights in certain places in the south.
Unless you are crazy, it would be surprising if you could win this lawsuit against Emperor Haojing in the Northern Capital, on Emperor Haojing's territory.
This move is no different from actively seeking death. Emperor Haojing began to supervise the country at the age of ten, and then invited Emperor Chongzhen to Nandu.
If you can successfully sue the emperor, then you have the power to reach heaven!
Shuntian Prefecture will not accept this case, and neither will the Three Laws Division. There is no chance of winning.
The northern capital is not independent of southern commodities. The four major categories of commodities, such as tea, silk, porcelain, and iron, are mainly produced in the south.
But the long-term supplier has been decided long ago, and there is no room or opportunity for outsiders to intervene.
Zhejiang tea merchants had previously deliberately made enemies of the Nanting and Chongzhen emperors, but they were thoroughly investigated.
Last year, it was looted by the landed British troops, and then the British troops fled. These merchants almost lost their money.
Even the possibility of compensation was lost. The Ming fleet defeated the Spaniards, but the British did not participate in the war at all.
If the goods snatched by Xiyi cannot be recovered, then they can only bow their heads and admit defeat.
I wanted to cry to the court, but the court had already ordered me to retreat to the mountains.
These merchants are stubborn and are now asking for trouble.
Those who survived and managed to survive either took refuge with Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Haojing, or someone high in the imperial court.
Most of the tea merchants who had previously taken refuge with Emperor Haojing did not suffer losses this time because they arranged for their servants to pack up and run away as early as possible.
After making a comeback, it quickly annexed the properties of those whose families were in decline, which was a blessing in disguise.
Although Emperor Haojing kept the purchase price of tea very low, the advantage was that it allowed tea merchants to ship goods stably and had a reliable heavyweight buyer.
The business of the company under Emperor Haojing does not involve tea, but for the needs of multi-party relationships, the price of tea will be increased from time to time, which is tantamount to interfering in the tea market.
The tea merchant Fan Qiaozhi was the spokesperson of Emperor Haojing in the northern tea market. The fifteen tea merchants in the northern capital were scumbags and did not dare to disobey Emperor Haojing's orders.
If you want to sell tea from the south to the Jifu area or even to the tribes in the grasslands, you must use the channels of Jifu tea merchants, otherwise you won't be able to sell even one tael.
After the tea produced in Fujian developed in the northern vassal kingdom and Nanyang Islands, there was no need to worry about selling it, and Zhenhai Gong Zheng Zhilong also had a good income.
It can be said that the invasion of Xiyi last year helped Emperor Chongzhen consolidate the markets in the south of the Yangtze River and eradicate many rebellions.
Most of those rebels who had defected to Xiyi were captured after the Ming fleet won the naval battle of Zhoushan and Hou Zhen Haigong Zheng Zhilong led the fleet to regain Luzon.
Now I am mining in mines all over the country. If I have done such a heinous thing, in addition to being exempted from the death penalty, I estimate that I will never come out again in this life...
However, these people were worried about finding work, so they were discovered by factory guards patrolling the streets, and they were immediately reported to a certain new emperor.
A certain new emperor thought for a while and realized that he had an errand for these Jiangnan merchants to do.
After the Northeast was recaptured by the Ming Dynasty King's division, a large number of manpower needed to be dispatched to take over the cultivated land.
Especially under the premise that Huangtaiji has sent people to open up wasteland, it is necessary to make good use of these millions of acres of cultivated land.
The land along the river can be used to grow rice, but most farmers in the north of the Ming Dynasty grow wheat.
Only farmers in the south, especially in the Jiangnan area, are good at growing rice.
Merchants have relatives in the countryside, so they can make use of this relationship.
Anyone willing to move to the Northeast can receive fifty acres of fertile land for free for men and women of appropriate age, and twenty acres for the elderly and children.
Those who arrive first can choose a good place first, and those who arrive later can only accept being picked by others.
A certain new emperor planned to give the best places to farmers in the south of the Yangtze River, so that they could harvest a large amount of rice.
Farmers, regardless of whether they are from the north or the south, are the most exploited group.
Unlike Jiangnan merchants, Jiangnan farmers also lived a very hard life.
A certain new emperor intends to use the merchants who have gone to the northern capital to poach some farmers from the south of the Yangtze River to develop the Eastern Wilderness again!
Wouldn't it be a waste to use such good land only to grow potatoes, sweet potatoes, and wheat? ? ?
