Zhu Ying is the grandson. Although he has not been formally canonized, the seal of the grandson has been obtained. In terms of officials, it is equivalent to having been officially conferred, but has not yet taken office.
The order issued by Taisun became an edict.
In other words, for the entire Ming Dynasty, Zhu Ying can be said to be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Zhu Yuanzhang still trusted his favor, and the decree he issued, unless Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict to intercept it, would be final and the king's law.
Except for some major matters, such as the dismissal of ministers appointed to the third grade or higher, or relatively large rewards, or modifications to the Ming Dynasty laws, Zhu Ying already had direct power over other matters.
These relatively minor matters will not be reported to Zhu Yuanzhang immediately. There must be records. If Zhu Yuanzhang is interested, he can also check the past records to know what the great grandson has done.
When Zhu Ying left, the order regarding the establishment of the factory had been granted to Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang has already obtained the help of the government by virtue of this decree.
The assistance here is required, otherwise you will be punished.
There is almost no big difference between the crime of disobeying an edict and the size of the crime.
In the afternoon of that day, Uncle Zhang went to Jinyiwei and asked Jinyiwei for help in finding a place to set up a factory.
Jinyiwei only has an official establishment of 5,600 people, but it has many branches. Even at the lowest Jinyiwei, there are probably dozens or even hundreds of people offline.
These people have jointly constructed a huge intelligence network, which contains everything about the capital. This is the reason why Jin Yiwei can control the capital.
"Uncle Zhang, the requirements for these sites are often hundreds of acres of land. I'm afraid it's not easy to find places like this in the outer city, and a new location may need to be built."
"I just don't know how long His Highness Taisun has to ask for."
Qianhu, the Jin Yiwei who received him, respectfully asked Uncle Zhang.
For Uncle Zhang, almost everyone in the Jinyi Guards from top to bottom did not know him. If the superior officials had not happened to be on business today, it would not have been the turn of this thousand households to receive him.
Qianhu was secretly happy, knowing that this was an opportunity.
In fact, Uncle Zhang was also familiar with this Qianhu person, otherwise it would not have been his turn to receive him.
He was the Jinyiwei, Chen Zhi, who first discovered Zhu Ying.
When Zhu Ying went to Ping'an Tea House, it was because he saw that the tea house was very busy when it opened, so he went to buy some steamed buns.
Then show filial piety to a hundred households, a hundred households to a thousand households, and a thousand households to the governor Song Zhong.
Finally I found Zhu Ying.
After all, Chen Zhi, a small flag officer at that time, still had some merit, but his merit was not worthy of recognition.
But in just a few months, Chen Zhi directly reached the position of Qianhu.
It can be said to be a step to the sky.
Now facing Uncle Zhang, I naturally have to do my best.
After Zhang Bo thought for a moment, he said: "His Highness did not tell me a specific time, but I am waiting for the errands ordered by His Highness, so the sooner the better. It is easy for His Highness to come over one day to check, and there is no movement at all. I blame him."
Come down, you and I can't bear it."
Chen Zhi heard this and nodded heavily.
The Jinyiwei industry, as an institution directly under the emperor, was extremely involved.
Even if His Highness Taisun's dissatisfaction reaches the Jinyi Guards, it will be much more serious than the officials.
It is estimated that he, a thousand households, will be beaten back to his original shape within a few days.
But when he saw the requirements in the document, Chen Zhi frowned.
Whether it is a brewery, textile factory, garment factory, frosting factory, etc., the required area and number of workers for these places are very huge.
In the past, even the Royal 8th Bureau did not have so many people, and there were no requirements even for recruiting people. As long as you are in good health, of the right age, and have no bad habits, you can sign up.
Any factory has a standard of 5,000 people, and they also need accommodation. This place is too difficult to recruit.
The only ones that meet the conditions are military camps.
But Chen Zhizong couldn't report it and asked the soldiers in the camp to give up their positions, otherwise they would be hammered to death.
Uncle Zhang drank tea quietly without any intention of urging him.
He knew very well that this was a big problem at the moment, but Uncle Zhang was not very familiar with the situation in the entire capital, and was usually familiar with the streets.
When it comes to choosing a factory site, I'm blind.
Of course, this task must be handled by people from Jinyiwei.
Chen Zhi subconsciously looked at Uncle Zhang's expression. Seeing that he was calm and indifferent, he knew that this time, for him, it would be a blessing and a misfortune.
If it is done well, it is very possible to go one step further, and even his name will appear in the eyes of His Highness Taisun.
If it goes wrong, I am afraid that I may not be able to afford the consequences.
In fact, Chen Zhi has another option, which is to transfer this matter to the superiors of Jinyiwei for handling.
For example, Song Zhong, the envoy to suppress the governor, and Jiang Zhen, the commander-in-chief of the capital.
You can’t get credit for it, but you don’t have to take responsibility either.
But Chen Zhi was unwilling to do so. This was a huge opportunity. If he missed it, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
At this moment, Chen Zhi's mind had never been running as fast as it is now. In the vague blur, his thick hair was falling out.
Finally, after being silent for almost a cup of tea, an idea flashed in Chen Zhi's mind and he came up with a pretty good idea.
After a moment of organizing his words in his mind, Chen Zhi said: "Looking at the requirements of these venues, currently in the entire capital, none of them meet the requirements, even if there are some large houses of similar size."
"But the layout of these houses is too messy, and it is extremely labor-intensive to transform them. The only way to build the places His Highness requested is to find some places and build them separately."
Uncle Zhang nodded when he heard this and said: "I know it too, but if it happens like this, the delay will probably be longer."
Chen Zhi immediately said what he was thinking.
"Uncle Zhang, what do you think of this? Now let's get some temporary places first. The construction of those factories is also going on at the same time. I'll look at the recruitment requirements. Even those who don't understand can enter."
"I think I definitely need a master to lead me and be an apprentice for a while."
"Even the fastest apprentices will probably need two months to get started. With this time, the factory will definitely be built, and it won't take that long."
"By the time the factory is completed, these apprentices will have learned enough and will be able to do things immediately as soon as they enter, without much delay."
"Uncle Zhang, what do you think of this method?"
As Chen Zhi spoke, he filled Uncle Zhang's tea cup with tea.
Uncle Zhang thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, this method is quite good. I am still worried about this matter, but I didn't expect that Chen Qianhu would give such a good method."
"It's just these temporary places. We still need Chen Qianhu's help to finalize them. The capital is too big and I can't find a place."
Chen Zhi patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhang will take care of it. There will be no problem with these things. Uncle Zhang can come over tomorrow and they can be done tonight."
Chen Zhi was already prepared to stay up late. At this point, a night without sleep was nothing. Compared with the possible future, everything had to be put aside.
Uncle Zhang was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Chen Qianhu in front of him was so powerful and could finish it tomorrow.
"Then I'll trouble Chen Qianhu."
After all, it is a good thing to settle the boss's affairs as soon as possible, Zhang Bo said with a bow.
"Uncle Zhang, you're welcome. This is what a subordinate should do. I feel honored to work for His Highness the Grand Sun." Chen Zhi said politely.
Uncle Zhang nodded and left with satisfaction.
Standing outside the yamen gate, Chen Zhi, who was smiling all over his face, immediately turned serious.
He summoned a guard in royal robes and ordered: "Immediately notify all the hundred households under my command, with small flags, to come to the council as soon as possible. There is an important period. Anyone who is out of the house and is resting, please come as soon as possible. Those who do not arrive within an hour will be severely punished!"
"
At this time, the Jin Yiwei who received the order started running as fast as they could.
Qianhu's tone made him understand that this was no joke.
As a messenger, you must know that if the speed is slow, the consequences will only be worse.
Chen Zhi walked towards the official hall where he was working, clenching his fists as he walked. It was as if he had issued a military order. If he couldn't complete it, he would be completely out of business.
Even if I risk my life, I have to finish it.
...
"Good wine! I have never tasted such strong wine in my life. There is no other wine in the world that can compare with this wine. I would like to call it the tyrant among wines."
Lan Yu looked at the wine in the cup, which was clearer than water, and couldn't help sighing loudly.
At this moment, he had already drank three small cups in a row, not even half a bowl.
But his complexion has begun to turn slightly rosy.
"Well, this wine has no worries about sales in the market. This is the wine that the brewery I plan to open will produce. This wine is unknown. Since my uncle said that this wine is the best among wines, from now on
This wine is called Ba Bar."
Zhu Ying looked at Lan Yu in front of her and said with a smile.
Today he summoned Lan Yu to Kunning Palace to discuss matters regarding the investment.
The current Qunying Chamber of Commerce has become an internal property of the royal family, and it is impossible to invest in it. The only option is to invest in certain factories under its name.
In this regard, Zhu Ying plans to give 30% of the shares of the newly built brewery in the capital to Lan Yu, which can be regarded as making up for the vacancy caused by Lan Yu's previous handing over of all the land under his name.
"How can I still worry about not being able to sell this wine? I'm afraid there are too many people grabbing it and I won't be able to produce it at all. If this wine were in the army, I'm afraid all the soldiers would be tempted to take a sip."
Lan Yu said, picking up the wine glass and taking a sip. At first, he drank it all and almost choked to death. Now he knows how to taste it.
Regarding the 30% stake in the winery, Lan Yu had no idea and no requirements.
He doesn't care how much money he can make every month. His Highness Changsun will definitely not treat him badly anyway, and that is enough.
In this regard, Lan Yu still has some ideas of her own.
Hearing Lan Yu's words, Zhu Ying frowned slightly. He suddenly remembered that if alcohol was not controlled, it might have a great impact on the military.
I still remember the Big Bear in my previous life. That was the case. That vodka was almost a must-have for everyone. Many soldiers were already drunk on the way to charge.
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Ying said: "This wine is too strong. If the officers and soldiers in the army drink it happily, it will definitely cause the army to make huge mistakes."
"Especially for generals, once they are drunk, it is equivalent to the entire army becoming undefended. The slightest mistake can lead to the entire army being annihilated."
Listening to this, Lan Yu felt the same way.
My drinking capacity is pretty good, but now that I have only drunk half a kilo, I am already slightly confused.
There are many soldiers in the army who are addicted to alcohol. Once they let go of control, it may lead to big mistakes.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Lan Yu couldn't help but ask.
Zhu Yingdao: "Commanders in the army are not allowed to drink alcohol during war or on duty. Once discovered, they will be severely punished, including the commander-in-chief and generals. They will not escape punishment."
Zhu Ying has gradually begun to arrange pickets to enter the army to supervise and deal with matters such as conduct and discipline.
From the general to the soldiers, no one can escape.
Lan Yu nodded and had no opinion on this.
He is no longer in the army anyway. Although he has a lot of connections with the army, he is still the chief governor of the Ming Dynasty Public Security Department.
In many aspects, there are not so many ideas.
On the contrary, he will also help with governance issues in the military.
Since Lan Yu resigned from the position of Zuo Governor of the Chinese Army Governor's Mansion, the court was not in a hurry to make arrangements and just left him vacant for now.
After reaching an agreement, Lan Yu left. Recently, the Ming Dynasty Public Security Bureau was busy with business and had too many arrangements. Now Lan Yu is a very busy person, so naturally he has no time to stay longer.
With Lan Yu's body, it won't take long for this slight drunkenness to dissipate.
"Your Highness, the farmland handed over by Duke Liang totals 8,900 acres. With such a 30% share, I am afraid that he will be dissatisfied."
Ye Yueqing on the side said while putting away the drinking utensils.
Although there were palace maids and eunuchs to take care of things, Ye Yueqing basically took matters into his own hands.
At present, the brewery is definitely making money, but compared with the 8,900 acres of fertile land, normal people feel that the difference is too big, and the shares are only 30%.
If word spreads, everyone will think that His Highness Changsun is taking advantage of others.
"You don't understand. The profit of a brewery is far from being comparable to that of eight or nine thousand acres of land. Let's put it this way, even twenty thousand acres of land is nothing compared to the 30% of the shares of the brewery.
"
"Dong Liang's character is such that he won't care too much about this. If he was such a caressing person, he wouldn't be where he is today."
"Some things need to be looked at from a long-term perspective. They may not be comparable this year, and they may not be comparable next year, but in a few years, they will be completely different."
"Do you think that when I gave him 30%, you thought it was too little? No, on the contrary, I gave him too much."
"You will know these when the time comes."
Zhu Ying said leisurely that the winery, which is equivalent to a state-owned enterprise, still takes the industrial sales route, and the profits from this are simply incalculable.
