Chapter 247: Edict
The most important thing about Zhao'an is to win the trust of others.
After all, this is a beheading matter. Only those who believe it is the credit of the court.
But how can you win the trust of others?
To be honest, it is difficult for ordinary will to make people willing to be moved.
After thinking about it, some traditional methods from all dynasties are the most reliable.
That is a swearing.
Of course, swearing is not something that anyone can do.
You have to be of level.
For example, the emperor.
Of course, Emperor Aoki can't jump out and say, don't worry, go ashore, if I violate the agreement, I will not die well, and the whole family will die.
That's what the emperor said, you must never do such a thing.
But it was a coincidence in the Tianqi Dynasty.
There is a man who everyone outside said he was nine thousand years old, and everyone in the country is building sacred temples for him.
Almost everyone firmly believes that what this person said is not different from the imperial edict.
His power is vast.
Although in Zhang Jingyi's opinion, no matter how powerful Wei Zhongxian is, he is just a slave to Emperor Tianqi.
But those people believed in this.
After the tireless slander of great scholars and countless scholars, everyone has believed that Wei Zhongxian's power was terrifyingly powerful and even had concealed the emperor. He alone decided on all matters in the court.
Anyway, all the terrible things were done by him, so he would do whatever he wanted.
Regarding this, Zhang Jingyi is really grateful to those scholars. Without these people’s teachings and dissemination over the years, this would not have been effective.
Emperor Tianqi said: "Okay, I'll tell you that Wei's partner will come later, I'll explain to him."
Zhang Jingyi was overjoyed and said, "If Brother Wei is willing to do it, then the matter will be 80% successful. But I have a ruthless request. Can Your Majesty not mention this is my idea? I... I am afraid that the relationship between us two will be ruined."
Emperor Tianqi was actually skeptical about Zhang Jingyi's idea. Wei Zhongxian could win the trust of others with a poisonous oath. Really? Why don't I believe it?
Now that I heard Zhang Jingyi say this, Emperor Tianqi said, "Don't worry, I am not a tongue-in-law. However... I still need you to do this trick to slap pirates. I am a shareholder of the company, and you also need to be a shareholder. I am not at ease with the deal to others, let alone they don't understand."
Zhang Jingyi immediately said, "Like Brother Wei, I am loyal to Your Majesty and go through fire and water without hesitation."
"Very good." Emperor Aoqi nodded with satisfaction, and calmed down and said, "You retreat first, I will go and talk to Wei's partner."
Zhang Jingyi bowed again: "I will leave."
After leaving the warm pavilion, Wei Zhongxian happened to come towards him.
When Wei Zhongxian saw Zhang Jingyi, he immediately smiled happily: "Brother Zhang... I heard that you have made new contributions again, congratulations, congratulations."
Although it is congratulations, it can't help but have a bit of sour taste like Shanxi old vinegar.
Zhang Jing saluted him: "Brother Wei... You have a bad face recently, so you must take care of yourself."
Wei Zhongxian smiled and said, "Hey, there's nothing we can do, we have to share our worries for His Majesty."
Zhang Jingyi was actually guilty. Maybe because his face had not succeeded in overcoming the tribulation, he hurriedly said vaguely: "Brother Wei is loyal and admirable. OK, I have something to do, so I will say goodbye first."
Wei Zhongxian smiled and looked at Zhang Jingyi's back. He felt a little impressed by Zhang Jingyi.
I was envious, jealous and hated. This guy was able to make a fortune without castration. When I thought about it, I couldn't help feeling a little unworthy.
So he entered the warm pavilion excitedly, stepped forward quickly, and then said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations..."
Emperor Tianqi also looked at Wei Zhongxian with a smile: "Parent Wei, you are here just right. I am looking for you. Come on, give Wei a seat and give him a pair of tea."
Emperor Tianqi kindly ordered the little eunuchs who were attending him.
Wei Zhongxian's heart suddenly became sank, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
…………………
Zhang Jingyi returned home and felt very happy. Now the stock of the Dutch East India Company does not need to be sold for the time being.
It will definitely rise in the future.
Now that the stocks on the market are in short supply, there will definitely be a buying spree.
However, Zhang Jingyi was still thinking about Franc, so he made people find ways to adapt and rescue dozens of Portuguese messengers.
Frans and others were led to Xinxian.
Zhang Jingyi said to them with a stern face: "You are so brave, you actually dare to trespass the palace!"
When Frans heard this, he hurriedly said, "We just want to buy stocks."
"This is the Ming Dynasty, not your Folangji, nor is it a place where you can make trouble at will. To be honest, your Majesty would have executed you all. If I hadn't spoken to you for your good words, you would have died without a place to bury you."
But Frans and others did not accept Zhang Jingyi's love.
All the money is gone, you are a robber.
Zhang Jingyi sneered again: "Don't think that I am a fool. Don't I know that this stock has risen sharply? At this time, you spend three or five Dutch guilds to buy my stock? Are you too despised me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Frons and others suddenly felt at the bottom of the valley.
Seeing that they were as if they were dead, Zhang Jingyi continued: "I naturally want to sell this stock, but even if I want to sell it, it is not the price."
Frans knew it was completely impossible, especially the few guards around Zhang Jingyi stared at them tightly.
I couldn't beat it, but I couldn't cheat it, so I had to say, "Yes..."
Zhang Jingyi said: "You are in the capital, please take a walk and take a look. If you can't say it is accurate, we can still do a business."
As he said that, he sent these Folang Jimen away.
Zhang Jingyi was in a relaxed mood at this time, but Lu Xiangsheng came in and bowed to Zhang Jing and said, "The Marquis of Xinxian, Guan Shaoning and others have arrived in Fengqiu."
Zhang Jing said: "It's good to arrive, just let them act according to the plan."
Lu Xiangsheng nodded and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a turbulent time. The capital has recruited so many refugees, but the world is still in chaos. After all, it's still the local officials who are greedy and those gentry bully people with their power."
Lu Xiangsheng said and sat down.
Lu Xiangsheng was already worried about the future of the Ming Dynasty.
He still has some feelings for the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, he would not have spent so much energy on Xinxian with Zhang Jingyi!
When Zhang Jing saw him like this, he said, "Yes, I think so too. If this continues, internal and external troubles will lead to chaos in the world."
This is the truth.
Zhang Jing saw so many scenes that he could feel more and more what the dynasty was like in the end of the dynasty, just like a pool of stagnant water. No matter how you stir it up, it still has huge inertia, making you feel powerless.
Lu Xiangsheng immediately said, "Marty, you said, we will implement the new policy... If it is placed in the entire Ming Dynasty, can the country's destiny be continued?"
Zhang Jing shook his head: "New Policy? What's the use of the new policy? How many new policies have been there so far in the Ming Dynasty? During the Zhengde period, Liu Jin's new policy. When Zhang Juzheng was in the time of Zhang Juzheng, he also made the new policy. Now our nine thousand years old is also a new policy? In addition to Zhang Juzheng's new policy, this benefit is also limited. In the end, any new policy has become a tool for exploitation and extraction, just a different name."
After hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng felt even more worried: "Is there really nothing I can do?"
"There is another way." Zhang Jing said with a bright look.
"Oh? Please give me advice."
Zhang Jing cut off the railway decisively: "Damn the old and build the new!"
"Downish?" Lu Xiangsheng seemed to be able to feel the indifference that Zhang Jing exuded.
Soon, Lu Xiangsheng stopped asking questions.
He clearly felt that if he continued to ask questions next, it might be something that was a taboo, so he smiled and said nothing about this topic.
After slowing down, he said, "Students go to the new district to see what is going on in the storage of potato grains."
Zhang Jing nodded!
He was alone, so he took out a book and then began to write down several names in the book. The name on this one suddenly said: "Zhang Guangqian".
Then, Zhang Jing joined in, and now the company is about to start planning.
Two days later, in Tianjin Wei, the imperial list began to be posted everywhere.
Tianjin Wei was originally a military town, but at first, there was not much population.
However, with the Ming Dynasty, Beijing was established as the intersection of sea transportation and the Grand Canal. In addition to becoming a military center, it also became a commercial center near the capital of the capital, like Beitongzhou.
There are many merchants from the south to the north... Nowadays, the north is in chaos, but the vicinity of the capital is still stable.
People were talking about the newly posted royal list.
This imperial list was issued by the Sili Supervisor, but the cabinet's seal was not stamped. Obviously, this is the order!
The so-called central order is a decree issued directly without passing through the cabinet and the six ministries.
Of course, the Chinese principle is always a bit lacking in terms of legal effects.
Inside, there was a nine thousand-year-old tone, and issued an edict to pardon all the pirates and demanded that they rush to various ports in Daming to report within one month!
If they report, they are allowed to continue to engage in maritime trade. Otherwise, they will continue to be dealt with as a traitor and will never tolerate it.
Of course, the unique one is the swearing of Jiu Qiansui. He promised not to infringe on the pirates, not only allowed to land, but also allowed them to return home, but also allowed them to go back to their hometowns, and even allowed them to take regular maritime businessmen's road guides at their discretion. If the oath is violated, what will happen to him, Wei Zhongxian.
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they looked at this.
The eunuch is the eunuch. Look at what others say...
Someone shook his head and whispered: "I'm afraid this is a chaotic edict written by the eunuch. Wei Zhongxian is extremely powerful and has reached the point where he has passed the emperor's edict. It's so terrible."
"Your Majesty is stupid."
Some people in the crowd thought about it after watching the imperial list, but soon disappeared into the crowd.
Chapter completed!
