After coming out of the palace, on the way back to his hometown, Yunzheng kept thinking about one thing. Although Emperor Wanchang had long had ambitions and hoped to be a wise, mighty, and eloquent saint, he was always accustomed to "accumulating little by little."
, will not take action easily until the last moment. Just like supporting the Zhou family to launch an attack on Xixia in the past few years, he is not completely sure that he will not touch such a tolerant emperor. Why has it happened recently?
But he kept making moves, and even started to design juniors like himself?
Of course, he himself also understood that in the face of strength, there was no distinction between seniors and juniors. However, Emperor Wanchang's recent performance was indeed so different from the forbearance he had shown during his nearly twenty-year career as emperor that Yun Zheng couldn't help but
Don't think about this problem
Under what circumstances would a person who is used to being tolerant become aggressive? After excluding the possibility of a drastic change in his personality, there are only two possibilities: first, he no longer needs to tolerate it; second, he has reached the end of his tolerance.
If there is no need to endure anymore, it means that the strength in his hands has an overwhelming advantage. But this is impossible in Yun Zheng's view. Although the military strength held by the imperial court is indeed sufficient, with a total of 600,000 troops, Guandong alone
The Thirty-Six Guards of Beijing Army numbered two hundred thousand, but Emperor Wanchang was attacking the four families at the same time. You must know that the combined military strength of the four major border towns was almost the same as that of the imperial court, and Wanchang also knew that just talking about fighting
, the current combat power of the Central Army may not be reliable, he would never think that the Central Army can wipe out the four major border towns at once, right? Besides, the world belongs to the Lin family after all, even if all the Central Army eats the blue little ones.
The pill is so powerful that it really brought down the four families, but it will definitely bring down the world. At that time, when the accounts are calculated, he, Wanchang, will also be a loser.
As for being unbearable, Yun Zheng also felt that the reasons were not sufficient, but the four families did not do anything like forcing the palace. Even the most domineering Zhou Ye only criticized the combat effectiveness of the Central Army in his own barracks. In peacetime, whether it was
In the memorial or in words, everyone still respected the royal family very much. It stands to reason that Emperor Wanchang should not have had the idea that "border towns must rebel" and then focus on cutting down the vassal.
Then this is strange. What happened to the emperor?
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Yunzheng secretly said in his heart: No, the emperor's thoughts can't be guessed at the moment, but we can't just be led by him step by step. We have to do something to make him not.
Do you want to train a new army to bring down our four border towns? OK, I will think of some way to make money. As long as this matter is sustained, our old Yun family will have another 30,000 elites?
But when it comes to making money, Yun Zheng is a little depressed. Almost all of his team is in Yanjing. There is no reliable person around him to do things, and that's it in Yanjing. The key is that this team is all military generals, and there is no one at all.
One is that there is no one who can play in the shopping mall. Let alone engage in overseas trade, even taking over Sanbao Tower will be a troublesome matter.
Alas, this family of military commanders does have hard power, but its soft power is really lacking. Look at the Shen family, how can they lack these people!
Huh? No, no, Yun Zheng's eyes suddenly brightened. Although the Shen family's business is well managed, the people who manage the business are not those scholars. Aren't those businesses managed by the businessmen who are dependent on the Shen family?
In this way, our Lao Yun family can do the same thing? As long as we hire a few professional managers - that is, the big shopkeepers, we just need to be our own big bosses with peace of mind, right?
His grandma's, it's broken! Yun Zheng suddenly lamented in his heart: No wonder our old Yun family has so many fertile fields and mines, but they are always struggling to survive on the line of food and clothing. Damn it, it's just a group of officers who only know how to fight.
You know nothing about business! No wonder the income is so poor! Look at the Shen family. They have far less land than we do, and they have no mines at all. They live a very prosperous life just by relying on the business properties under their names. This is the gap!
Yunzheng was filled with emotion for a moment, wishing he could rush back to Yanjing to ask his father to take charge of the rectification of the family business. Of course, this was obviously impossible, so he had to do the next best thing and decided to find a few business talents first.
It is to solve the urgent problem of no one operating the Sanbao Building after taking over it. Secondly, it is also to prepare for the rectification of the Yun family's industry in the future.
At this moment, Yun Zheng suddenly felt that his original small team was too limited and could not realize his vision at all. He couldn't help but have the idea of ​​recruiting talents for the first time after traveling to this world.
In the Wei Dynasty, because the border towns were quite powerful, although military generals were often looked down upon by civilian officials in private, in the eyes of merchants, the lowest group in society, they were still very noble. Especially the Yun family, the first family of military generals, had enough
The capital attracted the attention of businessmen, causing them to come to work or seek asylum. Unfortunately, the Yun family did not care much about this.
After all, the Yun family is a hereditary family of nobles and nobles. They also look down upon businessmen. Men who are accustomed to fighting on the battlefield always have a psychological advantage over businessmen who can haggle over making money for one or two.
, just like most bold men look down on stingy people, they have no consideration at all for handing over the family industry to a group of businessmen, and even subconsciously feel that if these people get involved in the Yun family's industry, they will definitely scrape off a few layers of oil, so Yun
The huge fields and mines in Shanxi and Hebei provinces have always been supervised by reliable generals sent by the commander-in-chief.
Yun Zheng didn't know whether their character was reliable or not, but these people didn't know how to deal with related matters. Yun Zheng knew that in the memories he inherited, there were many generals who were able to fight and were sent to supervise the mines because of the trust of the family leader.
What is the result? What should be lost is still lost, and there is no improvement. Sometimes the loss is even greater.
After Yun Zheng returned to his mansion, he happened to receive a letter from Yun Lan. After reading the letter, he knew that he had obtained the commander of the Yingyang Guards. As for Yun Lan, he wanted him to be responsible for the 30,000 Japanese army.
He was actually not very worried about the military pay. On the contrary, he was quite satisfied: since I am the young marshal who paid for it, then this Ying Yang Guard must be trained into a standard young marshal's army.
He came to the study alone, studied an inkstone by himself, and began to write a reply to Yun Lan. Not only did he describe the recent events in Beijing to him one by one, he also attached his own opinions, and finally mentioned a few more
He said that it was necessary to rectify the Yun family's industry and he gave a definite guarantee that as long as he rectified it according to his method, the Yun family would be able to get rid of the "economic crisis" and the whole army would be well-off.
