Chapter 527 Sneak Peek

Chapter 527: Take a look

After asking Sun Chengzong, Yang Jie turned to Bi Ziyan, seeing what this person has to say and what questions he still has to ask.

"Do you have any questions about Bi Qing's family?" Yang Jie asked.

"Report to Your Majesty, I think that although Zunhua Iron Smelting Station has been abandoned for many years, it does not mean that the pit mines previously opened by Zunhua Iron Smelting Station are now abandoned. If Your Majesty wants to reopen Zunhua Iron Smelting Station, these pit mines that have been abandoned in name are actually still smelting..." Bi Ziyan Zhengchen's temper broke out and reminded the emperor.

"Oh, what does the Biqing family mean?" Yang Jie didn't react at once. What does it mean that it has been abandoned but there are still people smelting it.

"...Hello, your majesty, there must be a powerful man behind the pit mine. Zunhua Iron Smelting Institute was the largest iron smelting station in the north. Although the iron smelting station was abandoned, it does not mean that the pit mines owned by the Iron Smelting Institute have been completely dug. The iron smelting station was abandoned because of the complex institutions and the cost was too heavy, rather than the pit mine being exhausted....Cough, that is to say..." Bi Ziyan tried his best to explain the matter clearly.

"I understand, I understand!" Yang Jie learned Bi Ziyan's explanation and understood what Bi Ziyan meant. In other words, he wanted to reopen the iron smelting station. Those mines and territory that were originally owned by the Iron Smelting Station have now been occupied by others. If he wants to reopen the mine, he can't avoid a special force - powerful people, they are local bullies and local emperors. Obviously, only by dealing with them can the iron smelting station be able to continue.

Bi Ziyan looked at the emperor seriously, hoping that the emperor really understood the tricky point of this matter. The powerful forces involved in the pit mines were really not small. At that time, Shenzong sent some eunuchs who collected taxes, but not one or two were beaten to death. This matter was not what the people said on the surface. The people were full and they dared to attack the tax supervisors sent by the emperor, and even the Jinyiwei would be beaten. There were no powerful men who were not afraid of the heavens and the earth to support them. How many ordinary people dared to take action? Besides, the tax collected by the mining supervisor was all pit taxes, but they actually collected taxes from the miners, and how much money did it have to do with the people? The problem behind this is not small. Although the emperor is very strong now, Bi Ziyan is still worried that the emperor would follow the old path of Emperor Shenzong.

"Your Majesty understands it, so I won't say much. I just remind Your Majesty that you should not repeat the matters of the mining supervision of Emperor Shenzong back then." Seeing that the emperor made it clear, Bi Ziyan did not intend to explain it to the emperor in a long way. I believe that with the wisdom of the current emperor, there should be corresponding countermeasures.

"I will deal with this matter. Bi Qing's family makes sense. I have recorded it..." Yang Jing frowned and said. Yang Jing was still mentally prepared for this. He mentioned this in the history textbook back then, which impressed Yang Jing very deeply. Yang Jing thought there was a question. Isn't it a glorious tax payment? Why did it become shameful when the Ming Dynasty? Isn't the book said that the eunuch's rights are very big? Why was he beaten to death like this? The book said that the Embroidered Uniform Guards said that the Embroidered Uniform Guards were not.

It's very awesome and dark. Can you catch anyone you want? Why are you beaten up? Later I gradually realized that being an emperor is sometimes helpless, and often he has to swallow a lot of anger. However, I am not Wanli, and I will not collect taxes like Wanli. In fact, in such a world where no taxes are required, it is even more a paradise for people who come from the twenty-one world. I have the means to deal with the so-called powerful people who make money and make money and do not pay a penny of tax.

"Sun Qing family, when you go there, you need to increase the steel production capacity immediately. I won't mention the cannons. There must be a huge demand. In addition, I have calculated that the carriages that replace the post delivery system will cost about four or five thousand, and it will be the kind of carriages. With the chariots that replace the official army, this number will be even larger. If you include the public transportation carriages in the city, this number will be likely to be tens of thousands. Once my policy of subsidizing carriages is released, the output of carriages will definitely skyrocket. The annual output is likely to be tens of thousands. You must prepare enough steel to support the operation of the carriage yard. If there is a steel shortage at that time, I will only ask..." Yang Jing explained Sun Yuanhua again.

"Go back to Your Majesty, I have written it down. After I go back, I will expand my production capacity immediately." Sun Yuanhua agreed immediately excitedly.

"Okay, in addition, as the Qing family said, there is a lot of iron required for shipbuilding. In this regard, the Qing family should also find more ways to contact the shipyard. I will also instruct Zheng Huaizhong to let him do most of the business to you. Anyway, you are close to Tianjin and it is convenient to board the ship. In addition, you cannot stop the business of agricultural tools. Even if it is not profitable, it is good to increase the steel output. The more steel output in my hands, the better." Yang Jing added that he would not learn from Wanli to collect taxes, which made thousands of people dislike him. His imperial party or eunuch were beaten. It would be too shameless. He would only open an iron factory by himself, dump a large amount of goods into the market, destroying those powerful iron factories, let them know their own methods, let them know the consequences of not paying taxes, and make them cry and beg for taxes.

"Go back to Your Majesty, I will write it down." Sun Yuanhua agreed again.

"Okay, and you must remember that although there will be a large business that will take over some of your business in the future, the core things must be controlled by you and must not be relaxed. For example, casting cannons, this must not be allowed to be operated by the business. For example, the research and development of new steel must also be controlled by you, and the technology must not be leaked at will... When those businesses gradually enter your place, your focus of work must be gradually shifted to management..." Yang Jing explained tirelessly.

"Go back to Your Majesty, I understand..." Sun Yuanhua said again.

"Okay, just understand. You are the magistrate of Fengrun County. I will invest a lot of money in the heavy industrial base. If you do it well, Fengrun County will probably be upgraded to a prefecture soon, or the prefecture may not be sure. You must have a clear idea about this matter..." Yang Jing explained again, which is also considered a reference to the Shanghai model.

"Your Majesty, I understand..." Sun Yuanhua was excited and happy when he heard this. He was a big sum of money? It was true that he just didn't know how much the big sum of money was.

Yang Jing explained things one by one and started industrialization. Finally, he had a preliminary airing, at least he had arranged it to his core imperial party. The rest was to settle ministers in the court, release the policy, and then organize business names, fiddle with stocks, and settle in the heavy industry base, which really opened the curtain for heavy industry.

...

After sending away his confidants, Yang Guifei was thirsty. He originally thought that building an industrial base was a very simple thing. Now it seems that nothing involves national economy and people's livelihood, or changes to the future, and he wanted to simply give a few orders to make an industrial base, which was simply a dream.

"Big partner, what do you think about the powerful man?" After seeing off the ministers, Yang Jing asked Wang Chengenlai again, the matter of the powerful man occupying that territory must be dealt with as soon as possible.

"Report to Your Majesty, I will obey Your Majesty this matter." Wang Chengen said.

"Well, in this way, you send a capable person to talk to the powerful who occupied the land in my circle, and then say that I am interested in the land and want to do business. If he is willing to do business with me, I welcome him and will give him two. No, he will give him one percent of the shares and let him think about it himself. I won't say much..." Yang Jing said that dealing with the powerful locals is actually very simple. Use money and use greater tyrants to suppress him. No matter how powerful you are, even if the emperor doesn't take action, the nobles who follow the emperor to do business, especially

The big tyrants do not have the good temper of the emperor. If they dare to stop the emperor from making money, they must be defeated and crushed. If they use the superpowers to suppress the small tyrants, they don’t have to spend any effort at all. Of course, the one-percent share you give does not have to pay a penny of the money you give yourself, and after collecting the stocks, they go to print paper bills. This is just to use other people’s money to buy a horse bone. If you encounter similar things in the future, you will not have to do the embarrassing things like Wanli back then, and your face will be beaten up.

"I obey the order, Your Majesty, what about Zhang Chun from the Lijian?" Wang Chengen asked immediately. As for what the emperor said to give one percent of the shares, Wang Chengen didn't care at all. He only cared about who sent to suit the emperor's wishes.

"Zhang Chun? Uh, then let's do it." Yang Jie said. This person had a little impression. He was considered to be a "running errands" by the Silijian. However, when he was released for business, he was not small. The title of Silijian alone was enough to scare many people.

"I obey the order, let's do it now." Wang Chengen agreed.

"In addition, I also sent a letter to Zheng Huaizhong from Jiangnan, saying that I was planning to open an iron smelting station and asked him to do most of his business to Sun Yuanhua." Yang Jing ordered again.

"I obey the order, let's do it now." Wang Chengen agreed again.

Looking at Wang Chengen's back, Yang Jie rubbed his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. This matter finally had a look. Next, he had to wait for the news. Now he has released the news that subsidized the carriage. I believe those with a good nose will smell something. After the carriage stocks are easy to sell, the stocks of the steel mills will be easy to sell, and then the stocks of the coal mines will be easy to sell, and then the trading of coking, iron tools, and transportation will be brought up. After this chain reaction, the industrial base will be quite good.

...

Sun Yuanhua had goodbye to the emperor and left the Forbidden City. After lunch, he was about to go back to Tianjin. Now the burden on him was too heavy and he dared not stay in the capital for a long time.

However, there was one thing that aroused Sun Yuanhua's interest, that was what the emperor said, Liu Mao was working on a postal carriage or a public transportation. Maybe on the way to Tongzhou, Sun Yuanhua recorded it and was worried. He was going to find Liu Mao to see how this matter was done. The entire post delivery in the Ming Dynasty had to be replaced with a four-wheeled carriage. This action was not bad. Thinking of the magnificent painting, Sun Yuanhua felt that he had to go and take a look first, and he had to take a sneak peek at what the emperor made.

Leading the horse and entourage, Sun Yuanhua walked through the streets and alleys, and soon found Liu Mao's place.

There were several large carriages parked in the big square of Liulizhai. The slight official said that Liu Mao was probably here.

Sun Yuanhua has already changed into a dress and dressed as a scholar who has traveled far away. He looks like a student traveling around, which is in line with his identity. Now he is still a juren, and it is also the right way to travel and take the exam.

Sun Yuanhua received guidance from a minor official and knew that Liu Mao would "hide" here. From the emperor's tone, he learned that Liu Mao would probably go to do this matter in person. Sun Yuanhua mobilized a minor official and asked the minor official to take him to find their master, Liu Mao, Lord Liu.

Soon, the sharp-eyed clerk accurately found his master from the crowd, even though his master changed his clothes.

As the clerk reminded him, Sun Yuanhua saw Liu Mao, a thin old man standing not far from the carriages, looking around, looking in a dilemma.

Liu Mao was making things difficult for the trip to Tongzhou. The emperor asked him to do everything himself, but he really couldn't hide his face. He got the carriage. The military bureau gave him several carriages that day to provide him with the route to Tongzhou. But how to operate it, he was hesitant and undecided, so he asked the people below to do it. But he was afraid that the emperor would look down on him and go to do it himself. This old face really couldn't be pulled down. He was a dignified Jinshi and the emperor's "quasi-confidence", but he wanted to do such a low-key business and deal with people from all walks of life and was complaining here.

"Shopkeeper Liu." Sun Yuanhua smiled and said with a smile. Without waiting for Liu Mao to speak, he said directly. If he was his "inspector" status, Liu Mao should salute him, but he was also a juren. Liu Mao was a Jinshi. In order not to be embarrassed, Sun Yuanhua called the shopkeeper directly. Anyway, he was wearing ordinary people's clothes. Sun Yuanhua just wanted to take a sneak peek and see what the post-delivery four-wheeled carriage that the emperor wanted to replace was like, so as to continue to outline the magnificent picture in his heart. This matter has been stirring in his heart.

Liu Mao, who was about to say hello and bow, was stunned. The shopkeeper, then understood again, and a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he smiled and said, "It turns out that it is shopkeeper Sun, who is polite and polite." He would be more relaxed if he didn't follow the rules of the officialdom. Otherwise, he would be unhappy in public. Not only would he have a broken identity, he would also ruin the emperor's affairs, so he would call him according to Sun Yuanhua, so that everyone would be at ease.

"Be polite, be polite." Sun Yuanhua also bowed his hand. He had seen it. Since everyone is an imperial party, and he is a confidant of the emperor, and now he is a grasshopper on the same line, there is no need to be too distant. He also knew that Liu Mao, this guy wearing ordinary people's clothes to do things for the emperor, casually breaking his identity. It is not good.

"I heard that Manager Liu is going to do the business from the capital to Tongzhou. I will take a look at it first. I will see what it is. Haha, please don't be surprised by Manager Liu." Sun Yuanhua, who was very curious, wanted to know how to do this new carriage for the whole country. This kind of thing is a rare event. Now that he catches up, he will naturally not let it go.

"Hehe, shopkeeper Sun is well-informed!" Liu Mao was startled at first. Few people knew what he did, but Sun Yuanhua pointed out what he was doing and was obviously a well-informed person. Thinking about Sun Yuanhua's background, he felt relieved. Sun Yuanhua should have cast cannons in Tianjin, but now he is in the capital. Without the emperor's call, he dares to enter the capital privately? I guess he had just met the emperor and came out of the palace. It's not surprising that there was inside information. The emperor's actions were very fast! Liu Mao shouted in his heart.

"Hehe, I just came out of the shopkeeper. I heard that Shopkeeper Sun was doing this business here, so I came to see it. I was really curious about the shopkeeper's business. I thought I would have a sneak peek, haha... I am going back to Tianjin and I am also going to do a business for Shopkeeper Liu..." Sun Yuanhua said with a smile.

The big shopkeeper? Liu Mao was shocked and sweated. Sun Yuanhua really dared to scream! He compared the emperor to the big shopkeeper. If the emperor knew about this, the consequences...

"Hehe, it's easy to say, it's easy to say." Liu Mao could only laugh a few times. It seems that the treatment of the imperial party or the emperor's confidant is indeed different from ordinary people. If you don't say anything else, you have become the person the emperor values, at least you are more courageous. Otherwise, who dares to compare the emperor with the big shopkeeper?

"I heard from the shopkeeper that in a short time, I will equip all the shopkeeper Liu's business with new carriages, but is it like this? It's so big!... The shopkeeper's work is indeed extremely large. Storekeeper Liu is about to develop..." Sun Yuanhua said with a smile, while saying "blame words", pointing at the carriage next to him and constantly admiring, looking amazing.

"Hehe, hehe..." Liu Mao began to sweat. The big shopkeeper was shouting, and he really couldn't say anything. Sun Yuanhua asked, and he could only say a few embarrassing words, nodding as agreeing.

"...Shopkeeper Sun is here, come and talk, come and talk..." Liu Mao hurriedly pulled Sun Yuanhua into an empty carriage, and Liu Mao was scared.

Sun Yuanhua was admiring the four-** carriage that could hold more than ten people, but Liu Mao pulled it into the carriage.

"Sir Sun, you're scared to death." Liu Mao was frightened by Sun Yuanhua's big shopkeeper.

"Haha, Lord Liu, it's okay. I think Your Majesty has always been generous and will not care about these things. Even if you know, I won't care. I'll listen to Your Majesty that you are doing a public carriage from the capital to Tongzhou here. I want to come and see what the post carriage that is changed all over the world is like. I want to see what changes will be brought to the world if it is replaced with a four-wheel post carriage. To be honest, I'm really surprised. How could Your Majesty have such a great courage and mind? Thinking of such a broad thing, I have no other way except to admire it..., Alas..., when I think of this kind of thing in the world, I have no other way...

The four-wheeled carriage felt that it was boiling all over. Once the Tianxia Station was equipped with this kind of carriage, not to mention anything else, disaster relief alone was an unparalleled weapon!... Alas, Lord Liu, please don't be surprised, I really want to have a sneak peek..." Sun Yuanhua became more and more excited as he spoke. When the emperor talked to him in the palace, although he felt surprised and unimaginable, he knew that this would definitely be a magnificent picture, but when he saw this long four-wheeled carriage that could hold more than ten people, he was even more surprised and excited. Once this kind of carriage was promoted, he didn't know how much change it should have.
