Late at night, looking at Jiang Yuyan who was sleeping beautifully next to him, Ye Mingsheng showed a hint of fear...
Although he expected that Jiang Yuyan, who had been widowed for many years, would be able to survive a long drought, the actual situation was even crazier than Ye Mingsheng expected!
She was relatively reserved at first, but after one incident she stopped hiding and almost ate Ye Mingsheng alive.
Although it was a bit scary, when he thought about what he had just done, satisfaction appeared on Ye Mingsheng's face. This kind of beautiful girl was still delicious and satisfying.
Looking at the ceiling, Ye Mingsheng fell into deep thought unknowingly. Ever since he heard Jiang Yuyan's report that day and knew her thoughts, Ye Mingsheng had intended to try this piece of beautiful meat, but it was a pity that people like him were destined to Got caught up in worldly things!
The first thing to bear the brunt was the matter of Lin Huaiwu. When Lin Huaiwu knelt in front of his house to plead guilty, although Ye Mingsheng did not let him enter the house, he couldn't help but glanced at him quietly in a hidden place.
To be honest, looking at the miserable appearance of Lin Huaiwu, an old brother, kneeling in front of his door naked with a thorn stick on his back, Ye Mingsheng really had mixed emotions in his heart. At this time, Zhao Han also sent the opinions of the General Staff, Ye Mingsheng Naturally, he also followed the advice.
Lin Huaiwu was dismissed from all positions in the Fengwu Army, the stolen money and property were recovered, and he and his family were sent to Fengzhou... ···
With Lin Huaiwu being dealt with, the large-scale anti-corruption operation in various departments of the Fengwu Army has come to an end. In order to appease the fearful hearts of the generals during the investigation operation, Ye Mingsheng also specially approved and distributed to all the generals of the Fengwu Army. Three months' salary as New Year's greetings.
This move received widespread response as soon as it came out. The generals in various departments also received comfort in their hearts, and the morale of the army gradually stabilized.
After doing this, Ye Mingsheng continued to deal with the bond matter non-stop. Under his guidance, Zhang Juning also organized the repayment ceremony in a grand manner. The dignitaries of Yi Jing City and even Youyan could basically come. They all came, and the scene was very grand.
At such a grand occasion, Ye Mingsheng came out and delivered an important speech. The content of the speech was a manuscript prepared by the Attendant. The content of the speech was to criticize Shangguan Hongyuan for causing trouble in the imperial court. The Fengwu Army would soon complete the rescue of the Qing Emperor. Save the declining Great Zhou Dynasty.
In addition, Ye Mingsheng also talked about the achievements of the Fengwu Army, such as the capture of Anqing Qilu and half of Huainan, how many roads and bridges were built for the people, etc. At the end of his speech, Ye Mingsheng thanked the gentry for their support of the Fengwu Army. , and look forward to them continuing to support the Fengwu Army as always.
After the speech, under Ye Mingsheng's order, the highlight of the ceremony was the repayment ceremony. Under the auspices of Zhang Juning, under the eyes of everyone, Feng Wujun transferred boxes after boxes of white money in accordance with the contract. , returned the principal with interest to the creditor of the year···························
During this process, Ye Mingsheng also observed the expressions of everyone. Although the power of these gentry and dignitaries was greatly reduced by the continuous blows of the Fengwu Army like blunt knives cutting flesh, but as the saying goes, the skinny camels were more powerful than before. Martha, the accumulation of this family over decades or even hundreds of years is still very huge!
In order to continue the rapid expansion of Fengwu Army, Ye Mingsheng will squeeze out the rest of their net worth!
When these gentry and dignitaries pinched their noses under the pressure of Ye Mingsheng and used real money and silver to buy Fengwu Army bonds, they did not think that Ye Mingsheng would return their money. Even when Zhang Juning said that he would hold a repayment ceremony. At that time, they were still doubtful.
There were even those who bought the bonds for a small amount. In order to please Ye Mingsheng, they directly wrote to Ye Mingsheng and told him that they had donated the bonds to the government. However, Ye Mingsheng saw their intentions at a glance and directly stated that they must participate. In the repayment ceremony, Fengwu Army will return the money to them exactly according to the contract.
When they saw the white money returned to them by Fengwu Army, they were all extremely surprised and praised Ye Mingsheng for keeping his promise. On the surface, Ye Mingsheng laughed with them, but in his heart he smiled without saying a word. He just felt They were happy too early!
Busy with these chores, Ye Mingsheng couldn't take care of Jiang Yuyan for a while, but as the saying goes, you don't have to be late for a good meal, and the same is true for Jiang Yuyan... ···
Although this time he captured this beautiful little widow and became the uncle of the little emperor for a while, this does not mean that Ye Mingsheng will let her enter the palace!
He does not lack a concubine named Jiang Yuyan. An ambitious woman like Jiang Yuyan will not be willing to be the kind of little woman who stays behind the scenes.
Jiang Yuyan's best destination is to continue to be her wife of the Wang family, become Ye Mingsheng's mistress, and continue to lead Yuchuntang Company and Rishengchang Bank. Ye Mingsheng will not treat Japan because of his special relationship with Jiang Yuyan. Take a quick look at Shengchang Bank. After all, among his three principles, the last one is irresponsibility!
As early as Dadongsheng Company, Ye Mingsheng gained valuable experience. When you use government means to allow a firm to gain a monopoly in the industry, then this firm will have various problems. For the development of the firm, you Market-based competition must be introduced, and the market must be used to force companies to develop.
Let the business gradually grow and progress in the fierce market competition. Only such a business is healthy and can stand the test of time. Therefore, this time Ye Mingsheng approved the Rishengchang Bank controlled by Jiang Yuyan to enter Qilu Development. I also prepared an extra gift for Jiang Yuyan!
But thinking about Jiang Yuyan's current way of looking at things, she probably won't understand her good intentions, but Ye Mingsheng believes that she will understand him sooner or later... ··········
·······························
·······························
While Ye Mingsheng was sleeping with Jiang Yuyan in his arms, the study room of Yi Jing Cui Mansion was still brightly lit.
】
Looking at his father who was reading official documents in front of him, Cui Zibo said with a smile:
"Dad, all the 570,500 taels of silver returned by the Financial Secretary have been deposited in the warehouse. Do you think you should keep them in Yijing or transport them back to your hometown in Liaoyang?"
The Cui family has been Fengwu Army's biggest creditor since it started its army. The amount of money and food provided to Fengwu Army totaled five to six hundred thousand taels, which almost emptied the Cui family's money. All the family assets.
Although the contract IOU was signed, to be honest, based on past experience, not many people in the Cui family expected Ye Mingsheng and Feng Wujun to repay the money. Everyone generally believed that this was just a case of meat buns beating dogs and never coming back.
Therefore, even with Cui Shao's prestige in the Cui family, this incident has caused Cui Shao to be criticized within the family. Even now, some Cui family members are complaining about it.
However, this time Fengwu Army's repayment ceremony was something that almost everyone in the Cui family did not expect, but the free money in the warehouse made the Cui family understand that this was really happening!
Although this is only a small amount of money that Fengwu Army owes the Cui family, Fengwu Army's repayment attitude still makes the Cui family overjoyed. Those tribesmen who previously accused Cui Shao of asking for Ye Mingsheng are now the same. Everyone changed their stance and loudly praised Cui Shao for his foresight...
Cui Shaorong had no idea about this, but Cui Zibo was very relieved and admired his father's vision even more.
At this moment, under Cui Zibo's gaze, Cui Shao said calmly without raising his head:
"Just keep the silver in Yi Jing! In addition, I will transfer another 50,000 taels of silver from my hometown!"
Cui Zibo's face was startled when these words came out. He even felt that he heard wrongly. After hesitating for a moment, he asked with some confusion:
"Dad, we don't have much money to spend in Yi Jing. What do you want to do with fifty thousand taels of silver from your hometown?"
When Cui Shao heard this, he put down the official document in his hand and asked with a little disappointment:
"Zibo, you are the deputy director of the Legal Affairs Bureau and a senior official of the Central Committee. You should have heard about the current situation of the Central Committee!"
"It's no secret that the General Staff is preparing to fight in Yunbin. So under this background, do you really think the commander-in-chief wants to return the money to us?"
Cui Zibo also felt something was wrong when facing his father's questioning, but he had just watched the white money being put into the warehouse. He had had all the money checked one by one and there was no problem!
If Ye Mingsheng doesn't want to return their money, then what is the money in their warehouse?
Seeing Cui Zibo's puzzled look, Cui Shao shook his head slightly and said:
"The Financial Secretary will issue a new batch of bonds in a few days. The total amount of bonds is expected to be one million taels of silver... ·”
Although Cui Zibo is not a genius, his IQ is still online. As soon as he said these words, he suddenly realized and said subconsciously:
"He is playing hard to get, and the repayment ceremony is to pave the way for the issuance of a new batch of bonds!"
Seeing that Cui Zibo finally figured this out, Cui Shaocai nodded imperceptibly and continued:
"You and I, my father and son, are the central envoys, and you are the deputy director of the Legal Affairs Bureau. Everyone is watching us from top to bottom, so we have to put in a lot of effort, at least one hundred thousand taels of silver!"
Cui Zibo, who finally understood everything, said in a very depressed mood:
"No wonder the repayment ceremony was so grand, even he attended, so that's how it is!"
As he spoke, he thought about how he was overjoyed to get back the money at the repayment ceremony. Cui Zibo just wanted to find a crack in the ground to fit in. At that time, in Ye Mingsheng's eyes, he was probably as funny as an actor.
After feeling sorry for himself for a while, Cui Zibo seemed to have thought of something and asked about his father:
"Dad, all the bonds issued by Fengwu Army now add up to more than two million taels of silver, right?"
Cui Shao nodded and replied in a deep voice:
"Two million nine hundred and seventy-three thousand five hundred and sixty taels of silver!"
As the leader of the Fengwu Army's "Prime Minister" civil service system, Cui Shao remembers such a sensitive number very clearly...
After hearing his father's answer, Cui Zibo hesitated for a moment and continued to ask:
"Coupled with the one million taels of silver bonds currently issued, the commander-in-chief owes nearly four million taels of silver. The combined annual taxes of all provinces are only more than one million taels of silver. Even if nothing is done, , the money owed on this bond will have to be repaid for four years, Dad, do you think the commander of this money is going to pay it back?"
Facing his son's question that went straight to the core of the matter, Cui Shao fell into thinking. After a moment, he slowly said:
"I can't guess what the commander is thinking! But I have talked with Zhang Juning about this matter!"
Cui Zibo immediately became interested after hearing this. He knew that Zhang Juning did not want to pay back the money at first, but after reporting the work to Ye Mingsheng, Zhang Juning made a complete change in his mind. There is no doubt that Ye Mingsheng must be one of them. The order worked.
Under his son's gaze, Cui Shao said in a deep voice:
"First of all, I want to point out a misunderstanding of yours. Counting the newly issued one million taels of bonds, it is true that the total amount of silver owed by Fengwu Army is nearly four million taels, but this does not mean that Fengwu Army wants Pay back the four million taels of silver in one go!"
"The time limits of these bonds are sometimes three years or five years, but most of them are medium and long-term bonds of ten or twenty years. Fengwu Army only needs to repay the principal and interest when the bonds mature, and only needs to pay interest during the rest of the time. Can···················"
"While chatting with me, Zhang Juning said that the commander-in-chief emphasized one sentence, which is that it is not difficult to borrow something and borrow it again!"
"I didn't understand this sentence at first, but after this incident, I think I have some clues about it!"
Cui Zibo was stunned when he heard this, and seemed to understand something. He tentatively asked his father:
"Dad, what do you mean, borrow new debts to repay old debts?"
Cui Shao heard this and took a sip from the tea cup, then nodded slightly to indicate that his son was thinking correctly.
Seeing this, Cui Zibo asked in disbelief:
"Dad, is this okay?"
Cui Shao heard this and said in a deep voice:
"I am also skeptical about this, but Zhang Juning said that as long as the interest can be repaid on time and the government's credit can be continuously strengthened to ensure that it can borrow new debt, this method is feasible!"
After speaking, Cui Shao continued to emphasize:
"This is just a conjecture of mine. It is not a policy implemented by the commander-in-chief. Although four million taels of silver may seem like a lot, as long as we can capture Jiangnan and dominate the world, this amount of money is really nothing. With Jiangnan's It’s not a big problem to pay off the tax within one year…”
