Chapter 1504: Get Rich

Seeing that Emperor Suleiman had an idea, Chen Ye felt relieved.

They came from their hometowns, and the journey was thousands of miles away, and I don’t know how much hardship they suffered.

For most people, they may not be able to return to their hometown in their entire lives.

What Confucianism emphasizes is to enter the officialdom, which is completely contrary to the tranquility and inaction of Laozi and Zhuang. Every scholar has a great ambition in his heart.

In the Ming Dynasty, they no longer had any chance.

But in the Ottomans, they found an opportunity.

But... as a group of outsiders, they knew very well that the one they depended on now was Emperor Suleiman.

If you want to gain a foothold here, you must promote education here, which is the foundation of their existence.

The reason is very simple. Only by promoting education and making the Ottomans admire Confucianism, then whoever masters Ottoman Confucianism is the authentic Ottoman Confucianism, whoever has the power to judge Confucianism will have everything.

Based on this point, two or three thousand scholars picked up each other and gathered together.

They used the sages as their bonds, called each other brothers and sisters, and then quickly became classmates. In the same year, the relationship between teachers and students quickly condensed into a whole.

Although he spoke of benevolence and righteousness, even an inconspicuous person like Chen Ye understood that at this time, if he did not seize the power of the old nobles, they would never have a chance to stand out.

The killing of Akjol this time was essentially to instigate Emperor Suleiman to break up with the old nobles.

Only by breaking can Confucian scholars take this opportunity to occupy more important positions.

Suleiman had made up his mind. He glanced at Chen Ye and said with a smile: "I killed Akyoll all over the family, you must be secretly happy."

Chen Ye took a look, and his heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly bowed back in fear, "Students dare not."

Emperor Suleiman smiled and looked indifferent: "The Ming Dynasty used scholars as officials and suppressed the nobles of meritoriousness. This was indeed a great innovation. These nobles relied on military merits to show their power and empower private soldiers. Why didn't my ancestors and ancestors want to eliminate them? Therefore, they recruited all ethnic groups as imperial guards and checked and balanced them. Later, outstanding people were selected from the imperial guards and appointed them as Kasha, the governor of all parties. In this way, the imperial guards were intertwined with the old nobles, and they were evenly matched."

"But..." Suleiman stroked his beard, looked at a place with his eyes as if his eyes were far away, and continued to say, "This is not a long-term solution. The old nobles were suppressed and balanced by the Imperial Guards. Once they were destroyed, the Imperial Guards would be a group of new and old nobles. If I had the world like me, the Imperial Guards would not dare to act rashly, but if the monarch was dark and unclear, these Imperial Guards would sooner or later become large tigers. They were tigers and they would eat people. I would use you to eliminate the situation of raising tigers. As far as the Ming Dynasty was concerned, I already knew what I wanted. Therefore, you don't have to be afraid or uneasy."

Suleiman stared at Chen Ye, as if there was a lot to say. He then said, "Do you know why there are many races in the Ottomans. Although it has been two hundred years, the gap between races is still very deep. They speak different languages, have different customs, and believe in different gods. Why is this?"

Chen Ye has been here for several months and has roughly known about the Ottoman situation, but he did not pretend to be smart and showed anything, but said with a cautious attitude: "Students don't know."

This sentence made Emperor Suleiman laugh. He liked this feeling and said happily: "This is because these people are tigers. If they are unified, they will only raise a bigger tiger. Therefore, my ancestors let them have their own traditions. Only in this way can they be dispersed. If anyone dares to rebel, they will summon all races to destroy them. In this way, the ancestors and clans can use this to balance the races."

"But the consequences... are the reasons why our Ottoman land is large and our soldiers are numerous, but we cannot form a joint force. Once a crisis occurs, it will inevitably collapse. Therefore, I want to use your unification and other unification to eradicate these fierce tigers, so that our Ottoman will enter the peak of our prosperity like the Ming Dynasty. At that time, we will truly be able to unite a million troops and horses, sweep the Franchise, and inherit the brilliance of our ancestors."

Chen Ye felt relieved when he heard this.

Actually, I think... for them, there is too much room for the Ottoman country to play, with many ethnic groups, and different people have different interests, and they will never be able to form a joint force, forcing Suleiman to abandon himself and the Confucian scholar who returned to the west.

The Imperial Guards are temporarily firmly controlled by the Ottoman Emperor, and many of the Kashas are from the Imperial Guards or other tribe members.

Of course... Emperor Suleiman is now talented and has a strong and powerful man and governs the world with an iron fist. If he does not have the determination to burn his boats, it will definitely be impossible for Confucian scholars to play.

"My emperor's wiseness."

Emperor Suleiman still had a smile on his face, and he changed his tone and said, "I heard that the Ming Dynasty caravan has set off and will arrive in Ankara soon. I will treat these caravans well. I also admire the prince of the Ming Dynasty. As for the Duke of Qi, he is even more outstanding. Duke of Qi treats me with his brothers. Although I am the only one in the world, I also accept his kindness. Chen Jingye is a talented person who has learned poetry and books. Let him be responsible for contacting these caravans, pass on my decree, and treat these caravans with courtesy. In addition... you compile a letter for me and order the caravans to bring them back when they return. I want to greet Duke of Qi and Duke of Qi and his parents and children."

When Chen Ye heard the three words "Duke of Qi" and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. He was very complicated about this person. He just thought about it carefully and what's the matter now? The Duke of Qi is too far away from him, let alone that guy is just a brain disease. Well, Chen Ye is determined to forgive this dog.

"The Duke of Qi is frank and is indeed a true person."

Emperor Suleiman nodded, and his smile became stronger.

It seems... in the cruel palace life, there is suddenly such a person who calls his brothers. Under this gentle appearance, the steel-like heart seems to have a little more tenderness.

It's really rare that you can even meet such an innocent and innocent person in the East.

He couldn't help but smile.

………………………………………

The person who was talked about by Emperor Suleiman... Fang Jifan, Duke of Qi, was busy these days.

The store has been rented, which is the best location in the new city.

Although it is renting, of course it is the left hand and the right hand.

That large store belongs to the Fang family, but it is rented to Xingguo Business Company, so it is better to do business and not let the prince take advantage of his own good.

Then, decoration is carried out, and of course, it is mainly simple.

Because this is a demonstration store, which is used to imitate other channel dealers, the best way is to reduce the cost of this shop. In order to enable these channel dealers to earn money, Fang Jifan was worried. Every expense of the shop needs to be carefully calculated, so he may spend more money when other merchants open the same shop in the future.

Then there are shelves and the storage locations of the pavements. Each arrangement is mainly simple.

After this busyness, it took seven or eight days.

Basically, it was finally completed.

Immediately afterwards, there are purchases, not only those suppliers who have been contacted, but also other goods can be temporarily placed.

In the past decade, the commerce and trade in the capital and Baoding have developed very rapidly, which has also given birth to a new working class. This group of people have monthly salary and incomes, but they have to buy food, clothing, housing and transportation, so many commodities have been born.

If it were ten years ago, Fang Jifan would not be able to guarantee that he could do this business.

But ten years later, with the prosperity of commerce and the growth of production of handicrafts and other workshops, it seems... the time is ripe now.

Everything is ready, everything is ready, and only the east wind is not available.

Zhu Houzhao was waiting for the news on the other side, extremely anxious. When Fang Jifan finally found him, he became excited: "Is it done?"

"It's done." Fang Jifan said confidently: "Don't worry, Your Highness, you're about to open now. After the business is opened, Your Highness will prepare a few more houses to stock up on treasure money."

Use the house to stock up on treasure money...

Zhu Houzhao's face turned up and she couldn't help but shudder.

Is this considered... exaggeration?

No matter what, Zhu Houzhao is still very poor.

All the profits earned in the workshop were spent, so that now, he has not reached the level of wealth.

Now...it depends on today.

"What's the matter that I need help?" Zhu Houzhao said excitedly

"Of course!" Fang Jifan said with a bright smile: "I have chosen the auspicious time to open the business. The most important thing now is that the more people the better. Your Highness might as well make a post. In addition to many cooperative merchants, we also have to invite more high-ranking officials and nobles to come."

Zhu Houzhao nodded quickly and said, "This is easy to deal with. Otherwise, please invite the emperor's grandmother to come. She is here..."

Fang Jifan's face suddenly became bad and he waved his hand: "No, no, the Empress Dowager, at this age, don't come to join in the fun. If something happens, you and I can't afford to take care of you."

"But..." Fang Jifan smiled again and said, "I have an idea to ensure that I can attract the attention of all the people as soon as possible."

"Hmm?" Zhu Houguan looked at Fang Jifan and wanted to ask Fang Jifan again what he had, but saw this guy with a traitor.

At this moment... Zhu Houzhao finally felt relieved.
