Chapter 365
Guangdong No. 1 Guild Hall, decorated with lights.
There have been many people gathered here, but officials, juren and businessmen are still coming one after another. These people are invited by Hanlin Staff and Sizhilang Lin Shiran.
Although Lin Weiran is only a sixth-rank official, he has become a leader in the Guangdong officialdom.
He is a young sixth-rank Hanlin attendant in history and has a great chance to enter the cabinet in the future. Now he has made a marriage with the daughter of the Minister of Rites. His future is bright, and his current appeal is even higher than that of Dai, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Works.
righteous.
It is precisely this that all Guangdong masters in Beijing gathered together, except for Dai Yi, the Minister of the Ministry of Works.
"Is this true that Shi Lin is released from the tutor of Leizhou Prefecture as the governor and Guangdong Maritime Commander?"
"The news should be true! His sister Hu Niu came here at noon and said the matter was settled!"
"Isn't this promotion not good? The place in Leizhou Prefecture is too remote, it's simply... a pirate's nest!"
...
In the hall hall, the officials and juren were fine, but the merchants got together and started gossiping. Many people seemed worried about Lin Xuran's release back to Leizhou Prefecture this time.
But they are not blamed for worrying about Lin Junran's career. They are weak in Guangdong officials in Beijing and now they are rarely able to produce a powerful seedling. Naturally, they hope that he can grow a towering tree.
"What do you know? Shi Lin said he was going back to reopen the Maritime Division!"
"Shi Shi Lin is responsible for the emperor's mission. If things are done well, they will surely rise to the top!"
"Come on! There are no outsiders here. Is there any difference between our Guangdong Maritime Service?"
...
The topic was extended and talked about the Guangdong Maritime Warehouse Department, but these merchants shook their heads directly. They seemed extremely unpopular with Lin Weiran's presidency of Maritime Warehouse Department.
They are all Guangdong merchants, so how can they not know their own maritime ban? If the maritime ban at Guangzhou Port is still a bit restrained, then the maritime ban in western Guangdong is simply a piece of paper and there is no need for an agency like the Maritime ban.
The businessman surrounded here suddenly found that Li Yunhu didn't say a word, and sat quietly at the table and leisurely savored the tea. Someone immediately asked, "Shopkeeper Li, what do you think?"
If Lin Haoran is the leader of the Guangdong officialdom, then Li Yunhu is undoubtedly the leader of the Guangdong shopping mall. Now Li Yunhu's Shuyazhai is even the top student of booksellers. His monthly tribute is calculated in tens of thousands of taels.
.
"The blessing of the people of Leizhou Prefecture! The blessing of the people of Ming Dynasty!" Li Yunhu spat lightly, then looked at everyone and said slowly.
"Are you optimistic?" Listening to his judgment, many people looked at him in confusion.
Li Yunhu put down the teacup heavily and snorted: "Do you think the person who can create the publication and sell 30,000 copies of "Talking about the Ancient and the Current" will be a simple person?"
When everyone heard that "Talking about the Ancient and the Current" actually sold 30,000 copies, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Yunhu looked at everyone and continued, "You only know that Lin Shi won six yuan in a row, but they don't know how he started from scratch? Now who doesn't know the cloth and soap of Changlin's family in western Guangdong? This "Talk about the Ancient and the Current" says
I also sighed at the business wisdom I had produced!”
"Shopkeeper Li, I believe you know what the situation in Leizhou Prefecture is. If you want to do a good job in the Maritime Warehouse, it will be difficult to reach the top!" Zhangguan Zhao from the jewelry store stood up and said.
Li Yunhu nodded first, and then said firmly: "If any official in the entire court came to western Guangdong to preside over the Maritime Affairs Office, I am sure I will definitely lose! But if Lin Wenkui presided over, I have great confidence!
If you really want to make a fortune, I suggest you can... take a trip to Leizhou Prefecture."
However, everyone did not expect that Li Yunhu's evaluation of Lin Junran would be so high. However, Li Yunhu's vision of knowing people is famous, and now he says this, everyone will also re-consider it.
To be honest, the objective conditions of Leizhou Prefecture are indeed not good. In western Guangdong, sea bans have long been regarded as empty text, and there is no need for Maritime Affairs there. Building Maritime Affairs there will only turn into a big joke.
Lin Weiran, who was able to win six yuan in a row, was definitely not a fool. Since he dared to take on this job, it proved that he had some confidence.
In addition, Lin Qingran was born in western Guangdong and also had a high prestige among the scholars in western Guangdong. He also had the support of the Minister of Rites, so he might not be able to suppress the local local tyrants.
Some people also began to waver, thinking that Lin Weiran might be able to create miracles, lay a foundation in Leizhou Prefecture, and run Guangdong Maritime Control and Prefecture, which may contain huge business opportunities.
Not long after, Lin Weiran, the protagonist of the banquet, appeared.
No matter how everyone judges Lin Weiran's future, there is only compliment and flattery at this moment.
He had become a fifth-rank magistrate at such a young age, and he had his father-in-law Wu Shan as his backer in the court. Even if he had a big fight back to Leizhou Prefecture, Lin Qingran's future was also limitless.
Zhao Dongcheng and other juren were much pure, looking at Lin Qingran with admiration and envy. In the past, they were on the same exam with them, but now they are still juren, and Lin Qingran has become the prefect of the guardian side.
Yang Futian, Ning Jiang and others were also admired and bitter. They were both Jinshi and Lin Qingran. Now they are still small masters of the eighth-rank interns, while Lin Qingran wants to become the fifth-rank prefect.
"I believe everyone has already known about the fact that I will serve as the prefect of Leizhou and the Guangdong Maritime Commission! I want to come here today. In addition to saying goodbye to you, I also want to ask you to help you, so that this official can master Leizhou Prefecture as soon as possible as possible!
business.”
After three rounds of drinking, Lin Qingran stood up and expressed his intention for the banquet.
Although he came to Leizhou Prefecture as the prefecture Lord, it would probably be a bit of a matter of course if he thought that he could directly control the entire Leizhou Prefecture in this way. Now the power of the gentry class of the Ming Dynasty is unprecedentedly powerful, and many juren and magistrates are just puppets at all.
Now Lin Xuran wants to master Leizhou Prefecture as soon as possible. It is far from enough to have an official seal, and he has to win over the support of some gentry. At least he cannot let them unite against him.
As soon as he finished speaking, two juren stood up and said, "I can write a book and go back to my hometown. I will ask my father to do his best for the adults."
In addition, several businessmen stood up and expressed their full support for Lin Weiran.
After the dinner, he followed these people to use tea in the side hall and began to grind the bottoming work of Leizhou Prefecture. They also tried their best to curry favor with Lin Yuran, and they also said everything they knew and said everything, which was heart-to-heart.
Although I decided to leave the capital, some things still have to be explained.
In the next few days, he completed the cement test and then personally negotiated with Yan Song. He showed that he was confident that he would build the Guangdong Maritime Bureau, but he needed his support.
After Yan Song learned that Lin Junran was not asking for money from him, he also made some promises to him, indicating that he would support other matters and was willing to help the generals in charge of the Divine Lightning Guard.
In the end, Lin Qingran approached Wu Shan again and made some suggestions on the matter of "Talking about the Ancient and the Current".
Wu Shan naturally had to take the editor-in-chief of "Talking about the Ancient and the Current", with Zhu Dashou, Xu Wei and Tao Dalin as deputy editors, and proposed to add a page to conduct essays for those who went to the examination, and the historian of the Department of Republics replied.
Recommend the articles selected by the guild hall, and then recommend them to the maintenance and inspection hall.
This action not only gives the historians of the Republic and Inspection Office a sweetheart, but also increases the sales of "Talking about the Ancient and the Current". The published juren will inevitably vigorously clamor and praise "Talking about the Ancient and the Current", thereby pushing up "Talking about the Ancient and the Current"
》The status of the world among scholars.
After the Mu Mu period in June, Lin Weiran took Hu Niu and others to board the official boat, intending to return to his hometown.
At the moment of leaving, Lin Qingran felt like he was "no official and light". Although the capital was a quick way to get promoted, it was also necessary to fight openly and secretly, and it was hard to work hard. It might be a good thing to stay away from here for the time being.
Especially looking at the girl Hu Niu's spirited appearance, Lin Weiran no longer was obsessed with the disadvantages of being released from the outside, no longer was obsessed with the problem of rebuilding the Maritime Mansion Department, but took her happily on her way home.
