Fang Zheng turned around and saw that it was Yang Fengfan, and smiled and said, "Xiao Yang, what's wrong?"

Yang Fengfan was about to cry without tears.

What's wrong? What else can happen? If you don't mention this today, I have nothing to do!

Yang Fengfan whispered, "Mr. Fang, the official... I don't want to go to Pingwan County to be the county magistrate. Can you... beg you to go to Your Majesty and tell me that Xiang would go to another person? I really don't have that ability."

"Look... I have sent gifts to your house during the Chinese New Year and the holidays... You must help me. I have been there for a lifetime and I can't even come back!"

Yang Fengfan started crying and gradually began to speak without any restraint.

Fang Zhengyi patted his shoulder and comforted him: "It is because you have given me a gift that you should go."

"The effort should be rewarded. Now this reward is coming? Do you know how much effort it took for the imperial court to launch such a pilot?"

"Ga?" Yang Fengfan's crying came to an abrupt end.

Looking at Fang Zhengyi, he said in tears: "What? What did you arrange? Are you not opposed?"

Fang Zhengyi smiled: "Do I have a reason to lie to you? You said you have been making trouble for my house a lot. If I hurt you, who would dare to give me a gift in the future?"

"Then...that..."

"Then what? With me here, Pingwan County will be backed by Taoyuan County in the future. How can it be that it is not fire? Then I will send someone to assist you and ensure you are promoted or rich in one or two years."

"Think about the diamonds in Taoyuan County, big-quality celestial tea, and penicillin... The compressed biscuits and canned food that have only appeared on the market recently. Which one will not make a lot of people rich? I won't say much. If you have time, come to my house for details."

"Ah..." Yang Fengfan pinched his face, but he still didn't feel anything.

Seeing this, Fang Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, everything I said is true. There is a lie that my uncle was struck to death by lightning!"

Yang Fengfan's expression gradually changed from dullness to joy.

All of them have bet on Mr. Li’s life, can you still tell lies? Did you actually make money?

I'm sophisticated! I've made money!

"Thank you, Mr. Fang! Thank you, Mr. Fang! I'll visit your house tonight!"

After saying that, Yang Fengfan left with brisk steps.

Yang Fengfan left, Guo Tianyang came back, and smiled and walked up to Fang Zheng and said, "My brother, I'm a good show."

Fang Zhengyi glanced at him sideways, and was a little surprised, and spread his hand, saying, "Brother Guo, who knows me."

Guo Tianyang smiled and said, "Others don't know, but our family doesn't know yet. I went to Taoyuan County for the first time to see your attitude towards merchants. I also know that you are acting. Your Majesty summoned me, please."

Haha, it seems that my impression of being a business person has long left the two of them.

Fang Zheng nodded with a smile, and then followed Guo Tianyang to meet Emperor Jing.

When he arrived in front of Emperor Jing, Emperor Jing asked, "How did you convince Xu Qing?"

Fang Zhengyi said: "Your Majesty, how else can I convince you? Of course, I know how to move him with emotion and reason. Lord Xu understands the righteousness and thinks what I say is reasonable, so he agrees to help me."

"But I have a question. Judging from Your Majesty's intention, I don't seem to oppose the lenient business, but why did I keep my previous memorials..."

Emperor Jing held his hands behind his back and pondered: "I don't know whether it is right or wrong, but the court officials will definitely object. Since it is impossible to judge, then there will naturally be less trouble, and I don't want to cause more trouble. There are enough things on weekdays."

"By the way, you have done the articles on economic theory in newspapers in recent days, right?"

Fang Zhengyi smiled shyly: "Your Majesty is as wise as a torch! I can't hide anything from Your Majesty, but those things are nothing. They are some simple opinions summarized by me over the years and cannot be truly done."

Emperor Jing glanced at him meaningfully: "Then tell me what you think?"

"What I think is simple." Fang Zhengyi sorted out his ideas, "At present, merchants are the resource allocators. Only through the hands of merchants can they better allocate resources."

"If the imperial court came to dominate, it would be impossible. Because the imperial court did not know whether the people wanted to eat vegetables or meat tonight. They did not know whether they wanted to buy cotton or hemp, and they did not know what color of cloth they wanted to buy. These things seemed ordinary and not worth mentioning, but the needs of countless people gathered together and formed an extremely complex force."

"Only countless merchants can meet this extremely complex need. In the process of meeting demand and seeking benefits, they have to connect with production, which will create new wealth."

"Today, suppressing merchants is to suppress the creation of wealth."

Emperor Jing slowly paced: "Well, continue talking."

"Secondly, I heard from foreigners that they are not good at farming but are very good at doing business. Sooner or later, we will deal with foreigners, and countless overseas resources will also be transferred back to the great scenery through transactions. Now it is time to guide some excellent merchants who dare to take risks in advance."

"Otherwise, if you do business with foreigners in the future, just pointing at the court, you will definitely not make all your money. Why not make more money through private merchants? The fat people are always our Dajing people."

Emperor Jing smiled, and the words were in his heart.

Not to mention anything else, making money from outsiders and having a good wallet, no one is unwilling to do such a business.

"Haha, I am very interested in making money from foreigners. But everything depends on the aftermath of pacifying Wanxian."

Fang Zhengyi said: "Your Majesty, I have a request."

"Tell me."

"I plan to build a garrison in Pingwan County. The atmosphere of minor officials exploiting merchants for a long time is probably not eliminated in a short time. Yang Fengfan is in the Hanlin Academy and is afraid he is unable to deal with local problems. The Jinyiwei has achieved effective combating illegal acts in the capital, so I beg Your Majesty to allow the Jinyiwei to build a garrison in Pingwan County."

"Well, I'm sure this matter is correct. The Jinyiwei has always done a good job in the capital, although it's a little different from what I had originally thought... Just let it go."

"Your Majesty is wise! That minister is going to work hard."

"Wait a minute, I have time to let Miaohan and Chenyu enter the palace for more time. I haven't seen my grandson in several days."

"Uh... I understand."

Fang Zhengyi bid farewell to Emperor Jing, and was still thinking on the way.

Regarding the relaxation of the control of merchants, there is actually another most important point he did not say... that is the steam engine.

After Taoyuan County had Yucai, it began to vigorously organize manpower to study boiling water technology.

Several years have passed now. Although he has made progress, he is still a little far from success. After all, he is an illiterate person.

You can only guide others to develop based on your impression, and the R&D level is about starting from scratch.

But there has been a lot of accumulation over the years...

Once the research and development is successful on a certain day and can be put into use, it is equivalent to entering the threshold of the industrial era.

At that time, the development of society will rise exponentially, capital will be born, and materials will begin to be greatly enriched.

But if you fail to say it successfully, you can only be regarded as a joke. You can only wait until you are safe before you talk.

I haven't been to the steam station for a while, it's time to see how it's going.

I have been smashed countless silver, but I can’t just make a pressure cooker!
