8. Everyone agrees, please postpone

Li Shujiu is finally coming back. Li Shujiu, the core troll of conservatives and royalists, is about to go online again in Hanyang. Hong Jinglai will inevitably be troubled.

You have to say that this person is not good. This person has always stood unequivocally on the position of safeguarding the power of the Lee family in Jeonju. When Princess Jeongsun was in power, he criticized Princess Jeongsun and asked her to return to power as soon as possible. When Kim Jo-soon and Park Jong-gyeong were in power,

, he became a fan of Jin Zuchun and Park Zongqing, and he was full of firepower for the two and the Andong Kim family and Pan Nan Park family centered on them.

When Hong Jinglai arrived, Li Shujiu turned his gun and opened fire at the Hong clan in Fengshan headed by Hong Jinglai. Moreover, as a clan member, this man, although he did not study hard when he was young, had been in officialdom for thirty years.

Experience and resume should be as rich as possible, not to mention political acumen.

That year, he grabbed Li Li's hand in front of the Mingzheng Gate and claimed that he was the one who escorted the monarch to the throne!

The key point is that now, Li Shujiu is the only one who dares to top the vat with Hong Jinglai in front of Hong Jinglai and openly contradicts Hong Jinglai.

Among the other royalist conservatives, Lee Sang-hyun is Hong Kyung-rae's collaborator, and Kim Pyong-soon is Hong Kyung-rae's younger brother. Although they protect the king, they do not oppose Hong Kyung-rae's rule. As long as Lee's throne can be preserved, it will be fine.

, it seems that it is not a big deal if the royal power suffers a certain amount.

Therefore, when Li Shujiu returned to the court, those conservative ministers who had no way to go to the main hall to confront Hong Jing would have a backbone again, and Li Shujiu would once again have the best flag-bearer to wave the flag beside him and boost the momentum.

We have to find a way to get this guy out again!

In what year did the shogun of Edo die?

Can Jiaqing still give birth to cubs?

Okay, let’s discuss it for now. Li Shujiu is quite sensible. Politically, he takes a radical position of safeguarding the royal power, but in actual work, he is very stable. If he doesn’t understand what Hong Jinglai wants to do,

, didn’t speak at all. Or maybe he went home and asked an expert, and then he spoke after he understood it.

Basically, he is targeted and can compete with Hong Jinglai. As for the etiquette system, laws and cultural relics, let's not mention them. They are all his home court, Li Shujiu. How can Hong Jinglai compete with a descendant of the royal family who has been inherited for more than 400 years?

.

It is better to finalize the matter of Jiashan Copper Mine as soon as possible to avoid long nights and many dreams!

But the second round of bidding had not yet started. Lee Sang-hyun's White Gloves, who was shortlisted for the second round, suddenly asked the Xuanhui Office to postpone the second bidding for half a month. The reason was also very upright, and they needed to cash in the huge amount of the bid.

Raise money to Hanyang so that it can be delivered to Xuanhui Hall after winning the bid, so as not to miss Hong Jinglai's important event.

As soon as this man left, Park Joo-myeong, the head of the Song Dynasty business, also came to Xuanhui Hall and apologized to Cui Zhengji. Because he had spent a huge amount of cash to the court for the share of the ginseng trade rights years ago, he now needed to trade with the Qing Dynasty.

It will take half a month to withdraw cash from Yiju, an important town in the country.

Two people came to beg for postponement of the bidding. Of course Cui Zhengji couldn't sit still and immediately came over to consult Hong Jinglai. There must be something strange in this matter. Two large companies that were originally full of confidence suddenly said that they had no money on hand and needed to

Half a month of mobilization and financing time.

After Cui Zhengji finished speaking, Hong Jinglai probably understood that he was waiting for Li Shujiu to come back and give advice to whoever was behind them!

Before the sneer on his lips subsided, Jin Shilong outside the door came to report that Pu Xianyu, the leader of the tribute merchants, came to visit. This was completely unexpected. The other two could understand that Pu Xianyu had come to visit.

Why?

After inviting the people in, Park Xianyu saw that Cui Zhengji was also there and showed an extremely embarrassed smile. Naturally, his next words were exactly the same as those of the previous two people.

Can the bidding be postponed for half a month?

Everyone is on their own, and logically speaking, there is nothing to hide. Hong Jinglai stared at Park Xianyu, who was an old acquaintance of his when he debuted, so he could talk about it.

Moreover, as a tribute merchant, he took the tribute rice paid by Xuanhui Hall to buy various materials needed by the royal government. Logically speaking, it was Cui Zhengji who gave him the rice. Who can threaten him?

Pu Xianyu said with some embarrassment: "In fact, two ministers from the Domestic Supplies Department and the Neishan Temple came to see me and said that the items provided by the Lord were defective. Once delivered to the Secretary, it would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor...

"

Got it! It was Cui Zhengji who asked Park Hyun-yu to buy things, but it was Cui Zhengji and the officials from the palace’s Department of Domestic Supplies and Neisan Temple who inspected the items. Cui Zhengji didn’t have the final say during the inspection, the opinions from the palace accounted for it.

Arrived at the end.

If Pu Xianyu doesn't allow them to come this time and just fills in a charge, Youdao is "nothing is trivial in the Tian family", and everything related to King Li may become a charge.

Had to come!

"I see..." Hong Jinglai nodded.

There are now four shortlisted companies, and three of them have proposed postponement. Of course, it is impossible for Hong Jinglai to directly award the mining rights to Li Xizhu. As long as it is directly awarded to Li Xizhu, or to Laishang represented by Li Xizhu, then there is no need to bid.

You, Hong Jinglai, can teach me directly in private. Li Shujiu just happened to be back, providing an excellent target for firing.

"I guess someone has figured out the reason!" Cui Zhengji also nodded.

The purpose of developing the Jiashan Copper Mine this time is to enable the Fengshan Hongshi Dao ruling group headed by Hong Jinglai to have a cash of more than 600,000 guan per year in the future. And it can be expected that with the increase in the scale of mining,

As mining technology becomes more sophisticated, this number will grow larger and larger.

This is not to mention the contract payment paid by the contractor to Hong Jinglai. Adding the two together equals hundreds of thousands of taels of cash, all of which was in Hong Jinglai's hands.

Throughout the year, all the miscellaneous inputs of the Joseon Dynasty were added together, which was converted into an income of five million taels of silver. Hong Jinglai's extravagance was equivalent to a 20% increase in income out of thin air, and it was all in cash.

With such a huge amount of extra cash, you no longer need to discuss with other people to do anything, you can just do it directly. What checks and balances will be mentioned at that time? Hong Jinglai, who can pay for it, is the most handsome in Hanyang

The cubs, the neutrals, and the vacillators will definitely fall into Hong Jinglai’s arms.

The authority of Li?, or the entire royal family headed by Li? will further decline, and its momentum will be far less than that of Hong Jinglai, who is waving countless bills.
Chapter completed!
