As soon as he returned to his study, he immediately ordered Feng Ning to come. Feng Ning entered the room and immediately kowtowed and said, "I wonder what grandpa's instructions are for calling his grandson here?"
Feng Bao took off his badge from his waist and threw it over and said: "Take our badge and go to Prime Minister Zhang's house immediately. Make sure to explain the matter clearly!"
After that, he told Feng Ning exactly what happened in the Queen Mother's palace. After he remembered it, he turned around and left the palace to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. More than an hour later, Feng Ning rushed back with all his might.
Feng Bao saw him coming in and asked hurriedly: "What did Mr. Zhang say?"
Feng Ning gasped and said: "Mr. Zhang said he knew, and said he would break up with Mr. Long Live tomorrow!"
Feng Bao was very happy after hearing this and said: "You have worked hard, little monkey, go down and rest!"
After sending Feng Ning away, Feng Bao sat in his study and meditated. Regarding the matter of controlling Emperor Wanli, although he and Zhang Juzheng had different purposes, they stood on the same position. Therefore, he very much did not want Emperor Wanli to escape control!
But his identity was very embarrassing, because he was a royal eunuch, and it would be difficult for him to do anything that went against the royal family, so he could only place his hopes on Zhang Juzheng!
Today, the four most powerful people in the Ming Dynasty did not sleep well! But the difference is that Emperor Wanli was too excited to sleep, and Zhang Juzheng, Empress Dowager Li and Feng Bao were unable to control Emperor Wanli.
Feeling bored!
The next day, Emperor Wanli went to the Royal Study Room for class. He was a little uneasy, worried that Zhang Juzheng would attack him! But Zhang Juzheng taught as if nothing was wrong, which reassured him.
When the lecture was over, Zhang Juzheng dismissed the palace attendants. Emperor Wanli knew that Zhang Juzheng really knew what happened last night, and he couldn't help but hate Feng Bao even more! The palace gate was blocked at night, and Feng Bao had to send people out to ventilate Zhang Juzheng.
Tell me, do you still have me as the emperor in your heart?
But although he was resentful in his heart, he still said respectfully: "Mr. Zhang, do you have something to tell me?"
Zhang Juzheng said calmly: "I heard that your Majesty put an imperial village under your name. It should be to raise money, right?"
At this time, Emperor Wanli mustered up his courage, looked into Zhang Juzheng's eyes and said, "It's not just to raise money, I also want to practice my skills with a small village! After all, sooner or later I will take on the responsibility of the world!"
After hearing this, Zhang Juzheng nodded noncommittally and said: "Your Majesty has a good idea, but your Majesty needs to remember that you cannot compete with the people for profit! You must know that your Majesty is the number one person in the world. If you
Interfering in business affairs will easily trigger others to follow suit, and I'm afraid those wealthy businessmen will become even more lawless! Your status is valuable, and the people below will rely on His Majesty's power, and I'm afraid no one can stop it! When forced buying and selling occurs,
I’m afraid it would be bad if it affects people’s livelihood!”
Emperor Wanli nodded and said: "Sir, don't worry, I will never do anything to compete with the people for profit!"
Zhang Juzheng said: "This is very good!"
After saying that, he packed up his books and left the imperial study, leaving Emperor Wanli sitting there alone. Emperor Wanli originally thought he was going to have a debate with Zhang Juzheng, but he didn't expect that Zhang Juzheng asked about the matter in a few words and said a few words.
Then he left, which left him a little confused!
At this time, he suddenly remembered Liu Haojia's words in the letter. He said that Zhang Juzheng was a great man of his generation and would not dwell on trivial matters. As long as His Majesty could be fair and just and not interfere in private business, he would not stop him!
Because there are no glass mirrors in the world, making this thing can be regarded as opening up a new business, and there will be no competition with the people for profit! Moreover, the people who sell it are all wealthy families, and it will not affect the small people at all.
Livelihood, so there is no need to worry about Zhang Juzheng! Thinking of this, Emperor Wanli even more admired Liu Haojia for his foresight!
When Emperor Wanli came to his senses, he called Zhang Jia over and asked, "Have those old kiln workers Liu Haojia asked for been transferred?"
Zhang Jia nodded repeatedly and said: "It was settled a few days ago! Not only did the kiln workers pass, but their families were also settled in Liuzhuang."
Emperor Wanli said with emotion: "Okay, success or failure depends on this round!"
Zhang Jia said with confidence: "Long live Lord, there will definitely be no problem this time! Since Liu Haojia can make one mirror, he can make more! And with the help of the kiln workers in the palace,
Things are even simpler!”
It turned out that a few days ago, Zhang Jia had quietly settled several kiln workers and their families from the four inner courts in Liuzhuang. In this era, the status of craftsmen was low, and Zhang Jia had spent enough money, so
Several kiln workers who received almost no attention were inexplicably placed in Liuzhuang, and they have not recovered yet! Because the person who placed them just told them to wait for news in the village, so they are still frightened.
Waiting for the unknown fate to come!
And the person in charge of this matter took the money and naturally kept silent to eliminate the disaster! Anyway, in his opinion, this is just a trivial matter. Maybe Zhang Jia just wants to find someone to do some private work. Such things
It was so common that he didn't report it at all, and Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao didn't know about it at all.
In the evening of the same day, Feng Bao sent the relevant documents to Emperor Wanli. After receiving the documents, Emperor Wanli hurriedly arranged for Zhang Jia to send the documents to Uncle Gu Ning's house. Liu Haojia felt like a treasure when he got the documents! He knew that starting from today,
His plan is about to unfold step by step!
Two days later, the packed Liu Hao family rushed to Liuzhuang with their people, preparing to take over everything in Liuzhuang. In addition to the servants, he also brought two of his own kiln workers with him, just to impart experience and open the pottery as soon as possible.
situation.
Before that, Liu Haojia had already made a comprehensive plan. He was going to give some benefits to the villagers first to win over their minds, and then let most of them perform their duties. He planned to use the rest to expand the kiln.
market, and then build a new mirror workshop. Then as long as he takes a small part of the profits from the mirror, he can change the lives of the farmers!
The reason why he plans to do this is because he knows that the bankers in the Imperial Village are working extremely hard! Don't think that the bankers in the Imperial Village live a happy life because they are protected by the emperor! In fact, that is not the case at all.
thing!
On the contrary, because the people in charge of them are all very well-connected people, and because they are under the management of the inner court, the local government has no way to control the inside of the imperial village, so the oppression of these farmers is even more severe.
Too many! It’s simply that the sky is not responding to the situation, and the earth and the earth are not working! Therefore, most of the bankers in Huangzhuang are living in dire straits!
