Chapter 428 Volume C Interest Disputes

  Feng Ziying didn't think that much, or at least he didn't think that much now.

  That's right, the exotic atmosphere of Second Sister You and Third Sister You is really exciting, but now that he has not even officially settled on his marriage, he is thinking about taking a concubine and raising a concubine, which is too exaggerated.

Besides, there are still a few beautiful maidservants in the family anyway, Jin Chuan'er is not young anymore, she is first-class in terms of appearance and figure, her aloof temperament is really seductive, and Xiangling is not bad , that delicate and naive appearance also makes people want to have the urge to raise a gun and mount a horse.

  Although it is said that at the age of sixteen, one can do whatever one wants, but that doesn't mean that one must do whatever one wants. Isn't it a matter of relationship?

  Besides, he is so busy with all kinds of things now that he really doesn't have much time to think about them.

  The long-awaited debt-raising strategy for opening the sea was finally launched after more than ten days of contemplation by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs.

  Without any suspense, this strategy caused an uproar as soon as it came out.

  Open the sea in an all-round way, from Liaodong to Guangdong and Guangxi, there are as many as ten ports preset by the Shibo Division, which is far beyond the previous imagination.

  Guangzhou, Chaozhou, Zhangzhou, Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Ningbo, Wenzhou, Dengzhou, Laizhou, Jinzhou, these ports will all be listed as the establishment locations of the Municipal Shipping Division.

   Of course, the five places like Guangzhou, Zhangzhou, Fuzhou, Quanzhou, and Ningbo are undoubtedly the most important. If they are to be the focus of future sea trade, they will be the first to open the sea.

Chaozhou and Wenzhou are supplementary. As for the three states of Dengleijin, they are considered from the military point of view and the mentality of balancing the northern scholars. Many people do not have much hope for this. The five states The sea opening of the port will be slightly slower, and will be gradually launched based on the experience of the first five sea openings.

This strategy of opening up sea trade basically satisfies the intentions of all parties in the north and south, and it should be regarded as a relatively satisfactory result. A series of detailed rules for opening up the sea are still under discussion, and it is expected that there will be intense disputes in the next two to three months. Argue and discuss.

Regarding the situation in Japan, North Korea, Ryukyu, Annan, Manga, Dongfan, and even Ceylon and Dongwu in "Internal Reference", Feng Ziying is also going to make a brief account one by one in "Strange Tales from Outside the Territory", I also began to learn about the situation from merchants and ship owners from Fujian, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Guangxi, and then summarized it in order to publish it on "Internal Reference" so that more people can learn about it.

The change of the imperial court's policy of opening up the sea is undoubtedly a positive response to the calls of the entire Jiangnan for the ban on the sea, which also makes the Jiangnan scholars cheer for it. Of course, it also involves many interests. In the open sea trade, merchants who were mainly engaged in smuggling trade faced a dilemma.

   "Ziying, take a walk?" Feng Ziying just had time to put down the book when Xu Xie came over.

  Seeing Xu Xie's gloomy face, Feng Ziying could also roughly guess what this person is troubled about now.

  Xu Xie can be regarded as an outstanding role among Fujian scholars. After the selection of Shuji scholars, both status and influence have risen rapidly. In addition, he is famous for his poetry, so he is very popular no matter where he is.

  Ye Xianggao and Huang Ruliang, the two leaders of Fujian scholars, are very optimistic about him, so this strategy of opening the sea naturally also drew him in.

   "Okay, Brother Zixun, wait a moment." Feng Ziying sorted out the status books on the desk, and then got up.

"I want to congratulate Ziying. It is said that this side is almost done, and Ziying will be awarded an official by the Ministry of Officials." Xu Xie showed a smile on his face, "The editor of the Imperial Academy awarded it to a good scholar one and a half years in advance. Even the Yuanxi and Yonglong dynasties did not have one, and the Guangyuan and Tianping dynasties each had only one, so congratulations."

"Brother Zixun, in fact, you also know that's the case. The younger brother just caught up with the Western Expedition to suppress the rebellion. If you also go to Ningxia, Gansu, it will be the same when you come back. I reckon that Dazhang will also come back. There is a good result." Feng Ziying hurriedly said modestly.

  Xu Xie was the number one among the sages, but now he was left behind by him, so it was inevitable that he would be a bit apprehensive. Fortunately, Xu Xie was also quite appreciated by the big shots in the court, and he was quite proud.

It’s just that the appreciation of such big bosses can’t be compared with military merit. The meritorious service of Chinese officials in the Zhou Dynasty is often the easiest chance to get promoted. Note that either he died in battle, or he was punished for delaying the military plane.

"No, yours is not entirely military merit. If it weren't for this strategy of opening the sea and raising debts, Brother Yu thought that your editorial at the Imperial Academy might have to be delayed until next year." Xu Xie shook his head, "The editorial at the Imperial Academy And editors, except for Sanding Jia, the conferral period of Shu Jishi has always been three years, and there are very few exceptions, and you have conferred it in less than a year and a half, which can be said to be the first, that is, Guangyuan and Tianping The two dynasties were only awarded one year in advance, and you are almost two years in advance,..."

  Feng Ziying understood Xu Xie's envy.

After the conferment, you have to get the qualifications, which are different every year, which means that you will always have an advantage over the people in the same department in future promotions, unless others can regain this in the same way. Kind of first move.

   But it is easier said than done. Except for serving in the Ministry of War, it will be difficult to meet such military achievements in the future, and if it is in the local area, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing.

  That means that basically you will have this opportunity only if you encounter disasters such as military disasters and rebellions in your place, and before that, you may have to bear the responsibility for the local unrest.

  And having such an experience yourself often means that you can have some say in military affairs. The more you get this qualification, the more valuable it will be.

   "Brother Zixun, don't be envious of my younger brother. You are also a man of the hour. Yesterday, people from the Fujian Chamber of Commerce came to look for my younger brother. They only said that you are hard to find now..."

  Feng Ziying's words made Xu Xie wave his hands again and again, "Ziying, don't talk about this, those businessmen, hey..."

  Feng Ziying laughed, "Brother Zixun, are you sweet troubles?"

  Feng Ziying's words stunned Xu Xie for a moment, and after chewing on them, he felt that they really fit his current situation.

  He was seconded to the Ministry of Accounting, which was also Ye Xianggao's intention, and then discussed with the Ministry of Accounting the strategy of opening the sea and setting up a shipping department.

  There must be a priority for the opening of these ten ports. According to the agreement, two ports will be opened for about half a year for pilot projects, and then three ports will be opened. Finally, the other five ports will be considered according to the situation.

   Whoever comes first becomes the key.

  Guangzhou is basically determined to be in the first batch, but there is fierce competition for another place among Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and Ningbo.

  The two Zhejiang sides are naturally unwilling to give in. Even the Fujian merchants are also divided. Zhangzhou and Quanzhou are each concerned with their own interests. Whoever can be ranked in the first batch will naturally take the lead.

"Ziying, what you said is really interesting, but after careful consideration, it seems that this is really the case. The big event of Kaihai has been decided, but internal disputes continue. Mr. Zheng, several servants, and the doctors were all dizzy, and there was an endless stream of lobbyists from all sides in the court. Mr. Zheng dare not even go home now, and Mr. Shoufu is also behind closed doors. I'm just afraid of being involved in it, and there are people who will offend people..."

  Xu Xie smiled wryly while shaking his head and sighing.

   "Hehe, isn't Brother Zixun being entangled? Even the little brother receives countless posts every day when he goes home. I don't believe that Brother Zixun will not be entangled?"

  The reason why Feng Ziying received so many post gifts is naturally because there are rumors that many ideas of Kaihai Zhilue came from him.

However, since the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households have already discussed and submitted the proposal to the cabinet, the focus has naturally shifted to the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War and the cabinet. It is one thing to come up with an idea, but now the decision-making power has gone to the Ministry of Households. , the Ministry of War and the cabinet, so the situation of being "harassed" by the Feng family is slightly better.

   After all, some people have realized Feng Ziying’s influence, and I hope Feng Ziying can continue to exert his influence and speak for them.

"Being entangled is inevitable, but it involves all parties, and it is difficult to choose. In the short ten days, I have received more than ten letters from relatives and friends in my hometown transferred from the guild hall. Without exception, they are all lobbying for others. about the sea."

Feng Ziying can also understand that, after all, it is related to the livelihood and livelihood of many people. Where to open first, the number of concessions granted, and even who to grant them must be negotiated one by one. It's enough to make people look sideways.

   "Brother Zixun can only make a decision with a fair heart." Feng Ziying joked with a smile.

"Brother Yu will decide which round to make? Brother Yu is just making some suggestions. Whether to adopt or not depends on the elders of the household department and the household officials. However, elder Fang Ge intends to support Ningbo as the first choice. Zhenchang and Jianyu are also here. Come to me and talk about it..."

The real length is Huang Zunsu's character, Huang Zunsu is Tanhua, and he was awarded the editorship of the Imperial Academy. He is also an acquaintance in the Imperial Academy on weekdays, and Jian Yu is Han Jing's character, and he is also a good undergraduate. The results of the Shujishi selected by the museum were not very good, and they were ranked after Feng Ziying.

  Both of these two are from Liangzhe, so they naturally want to fight for Ningbo. Even the people in Nanzhili support Ningbo to open the sea first. After all, the economic exchanges between Liangzhe and Nanzhili are closer.

   Glancing at Feng Ziying, Xu Xie smiled, "Don't say they haven't come to you, even Uncle Fang will definitely tell you about it."

Feng Ziying laughed, Huang Zunsu and Han Jing both came to talk to him, but he was very pushy, he only said that he was only responsible for proposing a big framework in the early stage, and it was not his turn to intervene later, of course he did not He will refuse, saying that he will express his attitude if given the opportunity.

   Such things are inevitable everywhere. If you have no attitude, it will make you look down upon.
