907, the reason why Yang Fan wants to disturb the eight imperial merchants

PreviousBack to directoryNext
When Yang Fan saw this grandson, he came in with a big smile on his face, holding a thick banknote in his hand.

You knew without asking that he must have succeeded. Looking at this thick stack of banknotes, you knew that he had taken advantage of these Shanxi rich people.

Yang Fan said angrily: "How about it? I really got some money from these old men."

Upon hearing Yang Fan's words, Zhang Shize immediately showed off.

"Of course, you don't know who I am, let alone these Shanxi rich people. I can squeeze oil out of stones. There are 600,000 taels in total. How do you divide it?" Zhang Shize showed off the silver.

The ticket slapped on the table.

Seeing Zhang Shize's lazy look, Yang Fan felt angry and funny.

"You got it, you have the final say."

"Well, then I'm not welcome." Zhang Shize said seriously: "I have a good habit, that is, I never eat alone. It's okay to make money, but the key is not to leave any trouble afterwards. If you don't want the people below not to

If he goes to report you, the benefits will be shared equally. Regardless of the size of the official position, everyone must have a share. As long as he takes it, he will not report it. Otherwise, he will offend the entire army and become the public enemy of everyone."

"This is what a thousand people point out, and it ends without a cure."

Yang Fan nodded, that's the truth. In this kind of thing, the benefits must be equally shared, the big ones get more, the small ones get less. But if you don't give it, there will be trouble. As long as you take it, then the top and bottom will become one, and no one dares to risk it.

There is a risk of offending so many people, so go report it.

"First of all, everyone has two taels of silver, divided according to head, 80,000 people have a total of 160,000 taels. Then give 40,000 taels to the 100,000 civilian husbands. The officials who came with the civilian husbands each have one tael, and each of the remaining civilian husbands

I can get two denarii."

Yang Fan nodded. This plan fully demonstrated that this guy has a good character. Even the civilian husband got it, so there were no complaints from everyone up and down.

"Of the remaining 400,000 taels, use 200,000 taels as a reward for this battle. Rewards will be given to the soldiers who have made meritorious service. In the end, you and I will be left with 100,000 taels each. How about that."

Yang Fan was in awe after listening to Zhang Shize's distribution plan and raised his thumb.

"To be honest, I still underestimated you before. The fact that you can do this shows that you are a person who can do great things."

A person, faced with such a huge amount of money, can only take a small amount, which is definitely not something everyone can do. Zhang Shize only took one-sixth, which is indeed not bad.

Yang Fan really didn't dare to compliment those nobles in the late Ming Dynasty.

In particular, you can think of giving one-third to everyone and using one-third as a reward for the officers and soldiers' meritorious service. This is done in a grand manner.

"Tch, I should have known you thought I was greedy for money. Last time you took your broken boat to Hangzhou and robbed Mrs. Mao Wenlong's boat on the way, I knew what you were thinking."

Yang Fan looked at Zhang Shize in surprise, not expecting that Mao Wenlong would communicate with the British government about this matter.

"Don't be surprised, Mao Wenlong is the shopkeeper hired by the nobles. His business owner is the nobles. It's just that you came in late and no one told you. You also have a share of Dongjiang's money. My grandfather said, wait

When I come back from Guihua City, I will give you your share."

Yang Fan knew in his heart that it was not because they had no chance to tell him that they were behind his back. It was because they did not trust him and wanted to observe and test them.

When I traced Wen's account books, I saw the names of the nobles, and even pulled out his wife Lin Yueru. This made me very embarrassed, so I had to tell Wen to get out of here.

The honorable nobles are still very sure of their own actions.

He believed that he had the consciousness of being a member of the noble group, consciously safeguarded the interests of the noble group, and recognized himself. Only then did the British public come forward and arrange things to give him his due share.

Now that Yang Fan already knows about this, and Yang Fan has taken the initiative to protect everyone's common interests, if he doesn't give others their fair share, he will offend Yang Fan. In the future, cracks will appear in the circle of nobles.

A general with real power like Yang Fan, who holds a large number of troops, must never be pushed to the opposite side.

I guess the nobles were laughing at me behind my back, and after checking again and again, I finally found out that it was my wife.

Uncle Dingyuan must have been so angry that he could only laugh or cry in the end, pinching his nose and admitting it.

You think that by taking in a beauty like Lin Yueru, you can enjoy it every day. You still have to bear her troubles.

Yang Fan smiled and said nothing.

He knew that he was destined not to get this benefit. Because this summer, Yuandudu had clicked Maodudu. All the millions of taels of wealth on the island were missing. Not even a hair was left.

After that, Pidao was absorbed by Yuandudu and became a waiting company for military pay. It is impossible to generate income independently. The previous business was naturally taken away by people from Donglin after they killed people and bought goods. They have Jinzhou.

And Juhua Island Port can naturally do business.

I didn’t see it. Later, there was always someone who impeached Yuandudu and Huang Taiji, who flirted with each other and smuggled in privately. There were even rumors of private peace negotiations. However, after Donglin took Pi Island, their biggest interest in the north was to monopolize Hejia.

Slave trade. Since you want to do business, it would be best to stabilize the existing structure and negotiate peace. Only in this way can the benefits be maximized.

The restoration of Liao in five years was all to fool the emperor. No one except the emperor took the restoration of Liao in five years seriously. The truth was to seize military power and control the Guan Ning Army.

The emperor foolishly gave away all his power. The entire northern war zone, Denglai, Jiliao, Beijing, Tianjin and Shandong covered the sky with one hand, and the censors all withdrew. No matter what they wanted to do, it was still so dark that no one could see them.

When I think about it this way, many things that seemed strange fall into place and become easier to understand and logical.

People like Dong Lin always look ugly. They are not satisfied with controlling the trade power in the north and continue to make a fuss about military pay.

After Yuandudu was incorporated, the number of people in Pi Island was reduced by half (the empty pay was cleared). Not only was the military expenditure not saved, but the Ministry of Accounts was asked to redisburse it again and again. The final increase in military expenditure also turned into a confusing account, and its whereabouts are unknown.

Yang Fan knew the cause and effect, so he just laughed it off and didn't take it seriously at all.

But I must take the one hundred thousand taels in front of me. I am the coach. If I don’t take it, how can others dare to take it? After taking it, everyone feels that they are one of their own. Only then will each other be more united. Now in the current war, unity is overwhelming. If it is because of this

If things become suspicious, then the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, Yang Fan was not polite at all. If he had an orthopedic surgery at this time, it would only make Zhang Shize look down on him. He did it himself, directly counted out one hundred thousand taels, and returned it.

Seeing Yang Fan accepting the check so happily, Zhang Shize suddenly became happy. Working with Yang Fan was a pleasure, and he never tried to correct himself.
