Chapter 346 Defense
Zhang Han held back his smile and said, "My father-in-law has worked hard in Lizhuang until now. The salary he receives is as high as the official position of the official. He can get 300 to 400 taels of silver every year. This money is not small for ordinary people, but it is still small for his father-in-law."
Zhang Han saw Chang Jin and wanted to refuse, so he quickly said, "I am doing things like this. Those who contribute more are taking more, and those who contribute less are taking less. It has always been fair. Waterwheels, clocks, telescopes, and ordinary craftsmen cannot make these things. Look at how many rewards Wang Debang will receive at a time. You have a commission for every seat clock sold in the future. According to the patent share, I estimate that there will be at least 5,000 yuan a year. This time there will be two major achievements. According to the convention, I will also be rewarded with two thousand silver. In a while, I will ask the servants of the attendant to send it to you."
Chang Jinyou was not pretentious, but thought for a while and said, "I won't push you if I should. I will keep this money for you. I'll buy Changwei the farm and get married in the future."
When Chang Du heard this, he couldn't help but say, "It's hard for you to remember Chang Wei. What I'm trying to do is not for him."
Chang Jin looked at her and said, "One code will be the same. Please don't worry about these things in the future and do whatever you want."
Chang Du did not dare to refute it, and he lowered his eyebrows and looked pleased.
It happened that Chang Ning came over and saw his mother like this. He opened his beautiful little mouth wide and couldn't speak.
Zhang Han couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Ning is here too. It's just right for dinner. In fact, Chang Wei's money must still be on me. In the future, he and Yusheng will release their capital and grant shares according to the size of their credit, rather than the size of the court's official title."
If Li Shenming was there, he would have stared at Zhang Han and shouted that there was a ghost.
This opening of equity is also a move that Zhang Han had already thought of, and it was not a sudden idea. First of all, Zhang Han did not plan to continue to merge land. Although he could easily get more than 100,000 acres of land as a commander, it is enough to allocate it to the entire group now, but Zhang Han had to consider that the group would grow in the future, and it was not a good thing to divide land early. Moreover, everyone has land, they would lose their ambition. Self-cultivated farmers are the group who like stability the most and do not like change.
Secondly, it is to fight or weaken the influence of the imperial official position. In the future, He Yusheng will open up the dividends of capital. According to Zhang Han's estimate, He Yusheng's conservative income this year will be more than one million taels. He will take out a considerable portion of it to pay dividends to everyone. This dividend is different from the Chamber of Commerce. The shareholders of the Chamber of Commerce have their own part. The new dividend is to take out a part of Zhang Han's net income. Of course, Zhang Han is not a burner with a lot of money, but has other considerations.
In the future, the basic market will be larger, and more officials will be stronger. If the court adopts the method of division and governance to differentiate Zhang Han's strength, or even deliberately leads to internal divisions of the entire group, this is something to be considered in advance.
Zhang Han of the Chamber of Commerce is not afraid. The Ming court cannot play with the distribution of interests. Instead, it is mainly necessary to guard against the changes that may occur in the officer group. Fame, wealth and honor are touching. Zhang Han will never believe that his subordinates are loyal to him than their pursuit of wealth and wealth. Even if these people do not consider it for themselves, they must consider it for their descendants.
A group may be relatively better during the upward period, but if there is no good mechanism to maintain it over time, it will still change and eventually collapse.
After the shares were divided, the army was also corporatized. The entire group was a large trust-like company with common interests. What the court could promise was generational wealth. However, Zhang Han had already written a check in advance and exchanged it for reality. In comparison, Zhang Han firmly believed that the court would not come up with too many more practical things.
The land must be firmly controlled so that the subordinates will not form a new general group. Wealth and power must be distributed in advance, so that the subordinates and themselves must be firmly tied together. If done well, the official titles of the court will be nothing.
After all, the glory brought by official titles is only temporary, and more practical benefits are important.
"Why are you doing this?" Chang Jinyou widened his eyes and said, "You didn't take out your own money."
"If everyone hadn't followed me, or even fought for my life, how could I have today?" Zhang Han's smile was full of sincerity, and he said slowly: "I do give everyone a salary, but compared with human lives, money is nothing. Besides, as long as there are people, you can make more money."
Chang Jinyou looked at Zhang Han, and the smoke pot slowly went out. He said in a deep voice: "I read it wrong. You are a person with a lot of miles in your heart. In the future, you will not only achieve this in front of you. You can stay arrogant and keep your heart alive. This is very good, really good."
After Zheng Guochang learned that Zheng Yuhe led his troops to attack the business, he was stunned for a while and felt speechless.
Sooner or later, the Zhenlu and Tiancheng will be under the command of the seal. The two guards have long shared a Acropolis office. The Zhenlu guards are under the roof, and Zhang Han, the commander of the guard, will not be relieved. They have to take away one, of course, they will take away Commander Zheng, but the guy bumped into him.
The governor personally impeached the governor, and he was the newly appointed governor, with great power. The cabinet and the Ministry of War immediately followed. Less than ten days apart, the decree was to arrive at Tiancheng Acropolis. Commander Zheng was directly dismissed, and Zhang Han, the new commander of the Zhenlu Guard, also took charge of the Tiancheng Guard Seal.
When the news came, the entire Tianchengwei caused a sensation.
Commander Zheng was very embarrassed because of this matter, not only because of his mental awkwardness, but also because of his financial awkwardness.
His command was obtained by bribery. After the Ministry of War broke out, the Zheng family was a second-rate to third-rate general. They could get into relationships, but they had to spend a lot of money. This third-rate commander was bought with thousands of silver. If it was an ordinary commander, it would not have to be so spent. However, Tiancheng and Zhenlu Guards were the real garrisons, which means that there were a lot of land similar to the commanders of the people in the prefectures and counties. In addition to a large amount of land, there were of course many commercial banks that could also set up tax cards. In this area, if the emperor was waiting for the local emperor, the garrison was less disciplined than the prefectures and county officials, and the military officers could be shameless at all. Therefore, Commander Zheng came to borrow money and planned to work hard for a few years to pay off the debt, and then make a lot of money before leaving.
Ordinary ward commanders can also be hereditary, but they may not necessarily have the seal. The seals and the guards of Tiancheng and Zhenlu guards are also the guards of the Acropolis. This official position cannot be hereditary.
When Commander Zheng was in a mess, Zhang Han also rushed to Tiancheng Acropolis.
Zhang Han has been in Xinpingbao for a while. He has to straighten out the affairs of commercial banks in various places. He cannot only focus on military and political affairs. Commercial banks are also very complicated. As May, the major grain collection this year is also very important. Chambers of commerce in various places are trying hard to collect grain, and Yusheng's status in Shanxi is close to monopoly. Only in some extremely remote mountainous areas, transportation is really inconvenient, so it can only be collected by local small grain merchants. Some of these grains flow to Henan, some go to Shaanxi, and some are digested in Shanxi. As long as the grain that can be collected and transported, 70% of them flow to Tianchengwei.
In addition to the business and food matters, Zhang Han has also been paying attention to changes in the account recently.
With Fan Yongdou's cross-stage and Han Qi's unluckyness, Zhang Han has become a legend in Datong and even Shanxi, especially now that Zhang Han has also changed from an inspector to a guard commander. His status and strength are completely different from before, and people's hearts have also changed.
Changning's 60,000 taels of silver seemed to be a good start. From mid-to-late April to late April, from Pianguan to Ningwu, then to Datong, Zhenqiang Fort, then to Yanghe Acropolis, then to Xinping Fort, Zhangjiakou, there is a line from the west east. Each account branch on this line received almost a lot of deposits. The shortest certificate of deposit is three months, the longest is half a year, the maximum is more than 5,000 taels of silver, and at least a few hundred taels.
These silver can be deposited and exchanged. Now is the stage when local trading banks start stocking. It will reach a peak before autumn, and then after winter, it will be shipped and received. Zhang Han estimates that the amount of money entered and the amount of money entered will increase after autumn. At that time, the savings attracted by the account may reach an astronomical number.
Of course this is just a possibility, and no one knows what the specific one is.
When the account deposits range from less to more, reaching an astonishing number, Zhang Han can do too many things.
When this city, which is five or three hundred steps long and three feet high, appears in front of you, Zhang Han's feeling is completely different from before. He has been here many times. He came out of the east gate of the Acropolis and went straight east along a small official road. A few more forks are Lizhuang. He has walked this road several times. There are dense villages about three miles away from the Acropolis, all of which are gathered along the road. The people in these villages are all civilians, and there are quite a lot of civilians in the Tuwei Station. Whether in Yunnan, Liaodong, or Xingdusi, Shanxi, the situations are similar in various places. In addition to military households and Ding Yu, there are also quite a lot of civilians mixed in it.
A little further ahead are some small shops such as tea sheds and breakfast food shops, built along the road, some built sheds, and some were two or three thatched houses. The density of the houses began to increase, and the road surface became more bumpy because there were many people walking and no one repaired them. Over time, there were highs and lows in the middle of the road, and the road surface was very solid, and the carriages and horses were also undulating when passing by, which was very inconvenient.
Some thailanders carried firewood to the morning market. The earlier vegetable farmers had already come out and walked a long way. They put the wheel cart on the side of the road and sat in the breakfast shop outside the city, eating cakes and drinking tea. These breakfasts cost about three or four yuan. These vegetable farmers eat more grain cakes they brought with them, and only buy one-month tea with cakes. Only if the purse is a little bulging, they will buy a pot of tea, with oil cakes and peanuts, slowly killing the time, resting enough before continuing to walk.
The Taoist priests on the side, the monks who hold orders, the nuns walking down, and the passing merchants gather together to form a real picture of the world.
Zhang Han suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart. All the people had nothing to do with him. From now on, his thoughts would make the lives of these people change their power.
