When I returned home to the study room, I saw the pile of posts on the desk.
Feng Ziying was also a little helpless.
One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and clouds moved in all directions. The two things were so involved and the interests were so huge that they had to be moved.
Today, Wang Ziteng and Niu Jizong approached him to discuss how to open up the Denglai-Liaonan route as soon as possible. This was because they had already received some news and had contacted some Jiangnan maritime merchants, and they might be able to attract some maritime merchants. Shang went north to Denglai and south of Liaoning.
The various possibilities and demands put forward by Feng Ziying at the court meeting also attracted the minds of countless people.
If the bank can really attract the Ministry of Household Affairs to open an account to deposit silver, this will undoubtedly be an endorsement guarantee from the court, and the next step will be much easier.
The business model of this bank is completely different from the current bank stores in Jingshi and Jiangnan. Not only can it provide services that connect the world, but the key is that it does not charge custody fees. This is the most critical thing.
At present, banks and money shops charge handling fees for deposits, and if the deposited money is deposited again, it must be withdrawn from another place, and storage fees are also charged. This is the pattern.
These rules are not friendly to these merchants, but from the perspective of convenience, they are increasingly needed by business in Jiangnan, both sides of the Yangtze River, the canal, and the frontier areas of Xi'an, Datong, and Taiyuan. .
Although the Liaonan-Denglai logistics supply route and shipbuilding instructions should be based on the Denglai Governor's Yamen, Feng Ziying must still help with the early preparations and detailed coordination strategies with the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry.
This was a big deal, which naturally attracted the covetousness of Jiangnan merchants.
Similarly, when it comes to the specific handling of debt, although it will definitely be handled by the Ministry of Household Affairs, it seems inappropriate for the departments of the Ministry of Household and even the Department of Affairs to handle it at present, and this does not only involve borrowing, but also involves Collection of royalties.
The Municipal Shipping Department is only responsible for maritime trade matters and customs tax collection, and it has been abandoned for a long time. It needs to be completely restarted. How to set it up and its responsibilities and tasks need to be discussed in detail. Here, the cabinet, the Ministry of Revenue and the officials The department will also be consulted.
This in turn made countless officials from Beijing, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong and Guangxi take notice of the news and flock to it.
Who doesn't know this is a fat job?
Although the rank has not been made clear, it is conceivable that if the previous regulations are followed, there will be a promotion from the sixth rank, as well as a deputy promotion and a first-level ambassador and deputy envoy, all of which are hot and lucrative positions.
In particular, positions like these in the Municipal Shipping Department, unlike other noble positions, required imperial examination background, which meant that both Enyin and Zonguan had the opportunity to compete for such positions.
The bank matter has touched the hearts of millions of people. It is estimated that countless officials and the businessmen behind them want to know the inside secrets and see whether it is profitable or risky. In addition, where will the bank be established? How to conduct business is also a concern of countless people.
Seeing Feng Ziying sitting at the desk, looking at the posts piled up in front of her, she remained motionless, just in a daze. Xiangling next to her had already said softly: "Master, this is what Ruixiang sent in. Nu and Yun Shang So according to what I mentioned before, we divided the people in the court and those from other places, as well as the merchants. Here, these belong to the officials in the court, these belong to the officials from other places, and these belong to the merchants in the guild hall. They are also divided into regions. , this one is from the north, that one is from the south..."
This girl is very attentive, and Feng Ziying's heart moved slightly.
Even Ruixiang and Baoxiang couldn't come in to the inner study, so I had to rely on my own maid to clean it.
Jin Chuan'er, Xiang Ling and Yun Shang are all literate, only Yu Chuan'er is barely able to read, but since he feels that he values the fact that several of his sisters are literate, Yu Chuan'er is also practicing calligraphy very seriously now.
It turned out that only Yun Shang could come to the study, but after confirming Xiang Ling's identity, Xiang Ling was able to come in as well.
The ability to enter the inner study seems to have become a threshold. Of course, Jin Chuan'er can also come in now.
Girls are less likely to be bribed, well, especially girls who are combed and have a bright future, it is almost impossible to be bribed.
I casually browsed through some posts, and found that most of them were posts from seventh- and eighth-grade officials, and some even claimed to be late-born, which made Feng Ziying's teeth sore.
I am a Jinshi in Jinke, how can there be someone later than me? I guess they are probably some donated officials or Enyin supervisors who didn't even pass the examination, right?
As expected, I found a few posts with neat handwriting and read them. They were nothing more than Pian Si Li Liu Gu and cleverly written words, introducing myself. Well, it felt a bit like self-recommendation.
It’s no wonder that there are three Municipal Shipping Departments when they are built, which means that there will be three promotion envoys from the sixth rank, three deputy promotions from the seventh rank, and several ambassadors and deputy ambassadors from the eighth rank.
Although this is not as noble and noble as being an official in the capital, for those who have donated their official positions just for money, it is an extremely fat job.
Now the voices from the DPRK and China have spread, not to mention Guangzhou, Ningbo is basically confirmed, but Quanzhou and Zhangzhou have to choose another one, which is to add one to the original basis. This makes people inside and outside cheer for Ningbo. The other side is relieved, and the Fujian side is also comforted. As for the internal struggles among you Fujian people, that is your own business.
The official of the city's Boti Judicial Office could not have the turn of Feng Ziying, a editor of the Hanlin Academy, to intervene in the argument, but who could let himself be the favorite disciple of Qi Yongtai, the elder of the cabinet and the official minister?
Who asked him to bring this matter up himself and come up with a lot of policies regarding the daily affairs of the Shiboti Judicial Office?
In the eyes of many people, Feng Ziying at least has a great say in the promotion of envoys and deputy envoys.
In fact, this view is correct. It is estimated that when the Shiboti Judicial Office was established, the Ministry of Officials would come to ask for some opinions, whether it was ceremonial or sincere. If the appointed official took office But he is not qualified for the job, and I am afraid it will be difficult for the Ministry of Personnel to pay the vote.
After flipping through a few copies, Feng Ziying lost interest. He didn't bother to ask more about such trivial matters. The key was that he didn't know anything about the character of these people. Most of them were candidates who had not yet been dismissed from office in Beijing.
Thinking of this, Feng Ziying started to miss Wang Wenyan a little. With a person like Wang Wenyan, just leave it to him, and it won't take long before he can find out the details of these people. If they really have talents that can be cultivated, It’s worth recommending.
However, Lin Ruhai can't do without Wang Wenyan for the time being, and he also has some things he has to help take over. Jiangnan will also be a place that needs a big layout in the future, not much inferior to the capital.
Seeing that Feng Ziying lost interest, Xiang Ling obediently put the post away, then folded it and straightened it.
Feng Ziying's heart moved when she saw Xiang Ling's sweet and sweet look, "Xiang Ling, didn't you say you can't remember the situation at home? I also went to Suzhou this time and asked around at Suzhou Mansion, and it turned out that this was the case. The family is somewhat similar to yours."
It all happened more than ten years ago. To be honest, Feng Ziying mentioned it before leaving Beijing, but Xiangling didn't take it to heart. After so many years, especially the interrogation in Jinling Mansion, she also faced After understanding the situation in the yamen, I gave up hope.
It seemed to her that she could no longer remember what her parents looked like, she didn't know where she lived, and she had no memory of her past. Who could put such thought into it for you?
It was only when the kidnapper was arrested that he vaguely heard that he was from Suzhou, but how big is Suzhou?
Kidnapping is rampant these days. Every year in a county, there are dozens of children abducted by kidnappers or sold by unscrupulous relatives for financial gain. In the entire Suzhou Prefecture, there are probably hundreds of children reported missing every year. Over the past ten years, Who can still remember what happened back then?
And it is such a tedious task to check the torture chamber files of a county. Even if Feng Ziying comes from the capital, you can't supervise others to look through the old files from ten or twenty years ago for you. You can only ask someone to do it. Favors and money were given at the same time.
It wasn't until Feng Ziying left Suzhou that she got the news that there really was a similar situation in Wuxian County.
The reason why I say they are similar is that the family is no longer in the county. It is said that after the daughter was lost, the father went crazy looking for her everywhere. He also became seriously ill and the house was burned down, so he took his wife and concubines back to his wife Feng's natal home, and his wife My natal family is from Huzhou, Zhejiang, so I don’t know the specific situation.
Of course, the most critical point is that it is clearly recorded in the file that the abducted family member stated that their daughter had a rouge mole between her eyebrows, and that her age at the time of abduction was also correct.
When Feng Ziying told the whole story, Xiangling could hardly stand, "Sir, are you telling the truth?"
"Silly girl, can I still lie to you about this kind of thing? I went to Suzhou, how can I not take your affairs to heart?"
Feng Ziying saw that Xiang Ling's eyes suddenly turned red and her body was trembling. She quickly supported her and took her into his arms.
"It's just that Wu County said that your parents had no place to live because their house was damaged by a fire in the temple next door, so they sold their property and went to your mother's family, but your mother is from Huzhou Prefecture in nearby Zhejiang Province. They don’t know, so when I come back, I have to ask someone to check with Zhejiang, but with your parents’ names, it’s not difficult.”
Xianglingxiang's shoulders twitched, but drops of hot tears seeped into Feng Ziying's chest and clothes. She struggled to get up and knelt down to Feng Ziying, but Feng Ziying picked her up and said, "Master, please let me kneel down for you. If I can find my father, Mom, Xiangling is willing to work for you all her life,..."
"Silly girl, you belong to me. If I don't make the decision for you, who will? Don't worry, I will take matters like this to my heart and handle them for you. The ground is so cold here that I have to kneel down to thank you. You have to wait until you go to bed at night, then I will take good care of you..."
