One thousand and eighty-fifth from the public heart
The capital was the capital of the Quanming Empire, where royal family, nobles, high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen lived here. There is no shortage of luxury and enjoyment, and everyone can afford any valuable things.
This jewelry shop is a kind of jewelry shop. The goods in it are all gold, silver, pearls and jade, and they are also crafted. Each piece is expensive. The amount of money stored in the shop and the money flowing in and out is quite large.
If it is the jewelry stores that serve nobles and high-ranking officials in the North City, the price of jewelry and jewelry, flowing in and out every day, and the amount of gold and silver on the cabinet will be even more amazing.
Since the opening of the sea in Tianjin, some jewelry from the West, Arabia, and even the styles of Luguo have begun to appear on the market.
These things are not necessarily better than those of the Ming Dynasty. They can be favored by exotic styles. Moreover, in the eyes of wealthy families in the Ming Dynasty, many of these foreign things are particularly shameless. In other words, they are particularly suitable for being arrogant and extravagant, so these foreign styles also have a market and are quite popular.
There are many shops that operate such jewelry, and the largest ones are four. These four are all run by natives in the capital. Some are nobles and some are eunuchs. They are all people who can stand firm and cannot afford to offend.
However, those involved know that the nobles, eunuchs and other names are all famous, and there are some wealthy businessmen who are involved in them. What they have to do is to share dividends and get money, and at the critical moment they can serve as a storefront.
It is not that no one has ever had bad thoughts. For example, if you want to take advantage of the situation to swallow the other party, you often find that there are some huge things behind the other party. They can't see these huge things clearly, but if you try, you can crush them to death. After being cleaned up, these people are all safe. If you don't go at all, you dare not ask about the operation and accounts of these shops.
Jinyiwei and Dongchang also pay attention to such shops, but the news in these two places is that there are often internal relatives of certain officials and nobles.
This is also common. The jewelry business is just about the business of these people, not the business of these wealthy families. Could it be that men go? The attention is that there will be no more or less just here, but if you know more, it will be completely different.
For example, Mrs. Ru of a certain minister bought two pairs of silver bracelets in this shop. The silver bracelets are not valuable, and the two pairs are not valuable. In the eyes of the minister, it may be just a woman who is in charge, but the two pairs of silver bracelets are made of gold boxes. There are red spikes hanging on the spikes on the spikes.
The golden box and jade bi were extremely magnificent, but the shop was even more colorful and made into wood. The things were sent to the inner house of the minister's house. The minister's wife Ru also got angry and returned the box. However, when it was returned, the real wooden box was not finished. She brought the golden box and jade bi. Mrs. Ru found a family member to pawn shop and took the pawn shop and saw that it was so expensive. Moreover, the jade bi was an antique, so she gave it a very high price.
Everything was natural when it came in and out, but a large amount of silver and money fell into the minister's mansion in vain.
Of course, normal Niu Yi also does it, but if you look at the accounts, you basically don’t make any money. The profits you earn may be subsidized. In this way, you have to subsidize the money outside.
But there was no Wang Fa who said that doing business can only make money but not lose money. The accounts were clear. Two pairs of silver bracelets were sold and the cash was paid. Who could say that there was a problem with the jewelry companies of B, and the ones were doing one or two businesses, and they were very secretive. When they reached the level of the Minister, they were very careful when doing things. They were also worried that their own handles would be caught by these jewelry companies. They had previously sent people to watch, or entrust their relationship, and used spies like the Jinyiwei, Shunyao Mansion, and the Ministry of Justice, but there was no clue, so they slowly felt relieved.
No one is a fool, and he knows that if you take this money, something will come to you one day, but there is no reason to get the money in vain. Getting the money is better than anything else.
These jewelry shops often have first-class people in charge of business, or are leisure at home, and there are many places like brothels and Chuguan. Some instructions and reports are unknowingly transferred to the hands of those who should be.
In mid-September, a large number of goods were transported from Yaojinwei. Everyone who saw them was amazed that the house was really big. The ruts were so deep on the hard land, and they must be filled with gold, silver and treasures, important things.
After purchasing goods from each company, they wrote a post to familiar noble families in accordance with the rules in the industry, saying that there were many new styles in the industry, so they asked the grandmothers from each company to come and take a look and choose some of them.
After coming, they naturally returned with a full load. They followed the trick and put the right money into the bag. In a village in Tongzhou, the 300,000 taels of silver that were originally stored were all emptied at one time.
………………”
When I woke up in the early morning, officials who were qualified to attend court were waiting at the Daming Gate. In the past, they would have to come over before they were young. Now Emperor Wanli is very rules, and the rules of the ancestors have been changed. They can come over after breakfast, but when they go back later, it is in line with everyone's wishes. If there is a few conservative calls, they will pass.
Now, there is also a scene in front of the Ming Gate. Several North Korean envoys knelt in front of the door before dawn and cried, asking Shangguo to rescue him.
The palace always sent eunuchs to comfort me gently and even provide meals, but they never gave specific promises. At the beginning, the big guys looked at it fresh, but later they felt bored and didn't pay attention to it at all. They kowtowed and cried there, and we talked about ours.
The content of the private chat is actually related to North Korea. The military merits of the Ming Dynasty have become increasingly important in recent years. With military merits, wealth and honor are all coming. Moreover, with military merits, a large number of people can be taken care of. Why is the Li family still not defeated so many times? There are two generals and more than a dozen deputy generals, because Li Rusong has been making contributions over the years. As for Wang Tong, it is not necessary to say that it is so conspicuous.
With this obstacle, whoever is going to be the head commander of this army will move very tightly, and the Li family is moving very frequently, and this posture makes people understand. If you help with the rules in the Li family, there will definitely be rewards at other times. Wang Tong basically does not move. Even if some neutrals are unwilling to move, they may not remember it well! Then again, if Wang Tong really wants to come to the door, they are unwilling to take on the fight. After all, there are too many competitions and conflicts with each other.
"..., Mr. Wang still doesn't seem to make a sound..."
"Shifu Chen always said to have a little bit of a look, but I don't know who warned me, so I shrank back again..."
Everyone who knew each other was gathered together and whispered, talking about this, and someone said there: "I heard that the Li family went to find Shen Shixing? It was a bit worth asking Shen Shixing to come forward to speak, but Shen Shixing is very humble now and is completely closed-door!"
"...Tsk tsk, his Li family is really willing to spend money..."
"Think about it, if the Li family does not preside over this matter, if they do not preside over the situation, their status is stable and they are afraid that they will not be able to make money. How can they not be in a hurry?"
"There is a fart in North Korea, that is, Korean ginseng and Korean paper. If I don't care about that place, I won't care."
Wang Xijue was on the other side, and he didn't leave the sedan chair. After a servant served him to drink ginseng soup, he closed his eyes and rested in the sedan chair. If he didn't move, it didn't mean that others didn't move. Soon someone came over and whispered: "Gei Master, some people said that Pan Ji Xunlu of the Ministry of Works said that Wang Tong was suitable for being a general and wanted to mock him at the court meeting."
Hearing this, Wang Xijue opened his eyes slightly, closed them again, and said softly: "It's ridiculous. His eyes are so shallow. When others helped publish this book, they forgot everything. We ministers can participate in this matter. Fei is the emperor who is the master of the emperor, so let him be more cautious.
The person outside the sedan quickly agreed and then went again. Wang Xijue opened his eyes and said coldly: "Damn it!"
Those who are qualified to attend the court meeting have made up an idea, not talking about anyone who is handsome, waiting for it, but taking advantage of it or making a decision, letting the people below shake the flag and shout, there is no need for them to jump out so early.
But the court meeting on this day had a surprising change. The two ministers of the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Revenue both submitted memorials, believing that because the Ming Dynasty has expanded its territory in recent years, this situation needs to be maintained more and more, and there should be no slight carelessness. Now that North Korea has a large army of Japanese pirates, the court must treat it with the attitude of a lion and a rabbit, and there should be no slight carelessness.
Another memorial was also written by the Left Deputy Chief Envoy of the Censorate, saying that the elite mobile power that the Ming Dynasty could produce was the Huwei Army. Whoever is the most sure of governing the Huwei Army. There were precedents for victory, and there were only Wang Tong, with the precedents of Guihuacheng and Jianzhou, and North Korea was not a problem.
These people may not understand military tactics and military affairs, and what they say is just plain and average, but they are considered to have no faction in the court. At least they have no contact with the faction Wang Tong, and they don’t even have much business industries in Tianjin Wei and Songjiang.
They said this, and from the memorial itself, there was no bias. They just gave examples and discussed the matter.
So although there are not many people saying this, it gives people a feeling of "out of public intention", which has a great influence on those officials who are watching or are somewhat righteous. The original argument that the government and the opposition was mostly Li Rusong as the general, but now suddenly, it has its own support.
