Baole is a good son.

Since I knew that my godfather had always been worried about the lack of food in the army, Baole followed the principle that anyone would not let my godfather live a bad life and I would let him live a bad life. She visited several grain merchants who settled in the Special Administrative Region overnight with his godfather's famous post. These grain merchants are all affiliated with the Jiangbei Chamber of Commerce, two of which are from the Gaoyou Branch.

Gaoyou Branch is the first chamber of commerce to settle in the Maritime Special Zone. The chamber of commerce is built at the eastern end of Maritime Avenue, only more than a mile away from the Maritime Office. A letter hanging in the lobby of the chamber of commerce was the inscription written by the Admiral Maritime eunuch Wei two years ago - "The people of Gaoyou are so successful!"

After Zhao Baole found these grain merchants, he made a request to owe grain to supply military supplies with credit.

Although several grain merchants were forced to the Special Administrative Region by Feng Jiang and Jinghai, their grain transactions in the Special Administrative Region in the past two years were quite good, especially because they received certain care from the Ming Dynasty Imperial Army, which allowed them to rent and buy the shipping services provided by the Ming Dynasty Imperial Navy at a low price and ensure their business environment. So now Eunuch Wei has something to ask them for. Whether for long-term considerations or current practical interests, several grain merchants are willing to owe some grain to the Imperial Army on credit.

Although the credit amount of several grain merchants was not large, it was a big gain for Zhao Baole. He also knew that wool could not be pulled on one sheep, as it would be easy to pull all the wool.

So after visiting several grain merchants, he went to other chambers of commerce one after another. For various purposes, these merchants of all sizes agreed to help buy some grain for emergency treatment by the Imperial Army.

Baole was very happy, and when he felt angry, he simply took the initiative to do something bigger, so he used his godfather's name to distribute posts to each company and directly made an levy.

It is common sense to levy, and there is nothing unusual about the government's regular means of governing the world.

Most businesses pinched their noses and accepted the stake, but the Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce refused to accept the stake.

The Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce stated that Eunuch Wei owed them a considerable amount of money. If Zhao Baole had to help them, they would be willing to help, but the premise was that Eunuch Wei paid the money to them.

This debt does exist, with a total amount of up to 230,000 taels.

When Eunuch Wei "bringed debts" from major salt merchants in Xiguan, Yangzhou, he promised to pay them once a year, and even if he couldn't pay back the principal, he would pay interest. However, more than two years have passed, and not only did the salt merchants not see the principal, but also the interest has not been seen.

It’s not that Eunuch Wei doesn’t pay back their money, but he is really unable to get it out at the moment. But he is the most honest person and always has the word “trust”. He knows that no one can stand without trust. Therefore, even if the salt merchants dare not come to him to ask for the debt, he still specially asked the maritime yamen to sort out the due IOU, and the old ones will be turned into new ones.

Anyway, just that, as long as there is an IOU, are you still afraid that our family will be able to lose this debt?

Of course, Eunuch Wei still hopes that these salt merchants can respond to maritime affairs and convert debt into equity. However, the richer they are, the more thief they are. After waiting for more than two years, none of these salt merchants took the initiative to invest, which would have made their father-in-law very angry. If it weren’t for their face and image, my father-in-law would have asked the Imperial Army to come to them to talk about the concept of international trade.

Speaking of which, the salt merchants are still short-sighted, but from their perspective, they can understand it. After all, they can't get back the money after lending it out. What's the use of just having a note? It's normal to complain, but they can't do anything other than that.

To be honest, which of these people is willing to go to Wusongkou to open a shop and do business?

The conscience of heaven and earth, does salt merchants need to go overseas for business?

The farther away from the sea, the more money you make!

But the situation was stronger than that of the people. Eunuch Wei's minions were really fierce. The salt merchants dared not refuse to follow, so they all set up shops in the special zone. The business was really bleak. They just barely maintained, giving Eunuch Wei a face, and also had ideas. Eunuch Wei's business became prosperous and had money, and maybe they could really pay them back.

In this case, Zhao Baole came to the door and asked someone to pay the debt, but they would definitely not agree.

"There is no reason in the world that old debts do not collect new debts!"

The sixth young master of the Pan family, the largest salt merchant in Yangzhou, spoke in the special district branch store. This was for Zhao Baole and for Eunuch Wei. If you want to be timid, you, Eunuch Wei, don’t think of the salt merchant.

Zhao Baole was also angry at that time, and left with a dark face. He stopped halfway and turned around and went to find someone again. He did not go alone, but with a team of imperial officers and soldiers.

The situation was very turbulent, the salt merchants were frightened, and Mr. Pan Liu was shocked, but these people were also ghosts and agreed to donate, but they took out the IOU in their hands as donations. His family was 6,000, and your family was 5,000, and they had a total donation of 50,000 taels.

It is definitely a contribution to being able to offset the 50,000 taels of debt in vain, but what my godfather wants now is real money and silver and grain. How can I eat IOUs?

Zhao Baole was anxious, but this IOU is indeed money. Your Godson of Eunuch Wei must not ignore the number on this one.

At this point, it would be fine if it was someone else. But Zhao Baole was very thoughtful and suddenly had an idea after being depressed. However, he turned to other chambers of commerce with the IOU given by the salt merchant and wanted to buy things from them with these IOUs.

"The note was beaten by our adopted father. Are you afraid that our adopted father will not recognize it?" Zhao Baole always followed dozens of imperial troops like wolves and tigers behind him.

The merchants dared not not to sell it. In this way, the 50,000 taels of IOU was really used.

After making contributions, he wanted to report good news to his godfather. After hearing this, Eunuch Wei also thought that this idea was good and very good. So it would be better to let the IOU stay moldy with the salt merchants.

"You should take a bigger step, don't be afraid of getting rid of the ball."

My father-in-law asked someone to call a lettering teacher and made a square to print it out. There were no words on the printing, just four words - "Authorized for circulation".

Later, his father-in-law asked Zhao Baole to take the seal out and stamp it with the stamp on all IOUs that had been circulated on the market. Then he issued an order to Zheng Duo, asking him to take out 50,000 taels of funds from the funds of the thawing committee that had just been put into the warehouse to repay the IOUs.

"Didn't dad short of money?"

Baole doesn't quite understand what his godfather is doing. If he really wants to repay those IOUs, wouldn't that be a big loss?

My father-in-law didn't explain much to his adopted son, and just asked him to do it as he ordered. After his adopted son went to do the work, my father-in-law patted his butt and hummed a small song to the back flower courtyard.

There was a guest in the back flower courtyard, but Wang Yue'e, the daughter-in-law of the Zhao family in Taizhou, came. The person was not from himself, but from her father-in-law who specially sent someone to invite her.

Since Wang Yue'e had the support of Eunuch Wei, she has completely stopped in the Zhao family, and has completely cured her nameless husband. She also used the reputation of the Ming Dynasty's maritime eunuch and the Jiangnan governor to do a business bigger than her father-in-law Zhao Hengyuan when she was alive. Now when outsiders mention the Zhao family in Taizhou, the first thing they think of is this very capable wife, not any man in the Zhao family.

My father-in-law invited Wang Yue'e to come for the sake of serious business. This is not just about occupying a piece of land, but about profit.

If you live a life of profit, merchants must participate.

Therefore, my father-in-law hopes that the Zhao family in Taizhou can be a pioneer in the development of the East Federation and drive the East Federation sea trade. This great head, my father-in-law must take care of the next Yue'e.
