Ming Dynasty: Hanging out in Beiping County as Magistrate Chapter 375: The sugar cane incident became serious. Soon, Zhu Gaochi walked in from outside.
This period of time.
Not only has Zhu Gaochi become much more mature and stable, but his overall figure also seems to have been controlled a lot, at least it will not grow significantly anymore.
This makes Guo Anlaohuai happy.
After some greetings.
Guo An explained the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce to Zhu Gaochi in great detail.
"We, Prince Yan's Mansion, are going to establish a chamber of commerce... all the gentry from Beiping Mansion can become shareholders, accounting for 40%..."
"Father, please rest assured that this matter will be taken care of!"
After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi felt a little distressed.
However, he never doubted his teacher's plan, and his father had already agreed to it in front of all the gentry.
So, he agreed with a firm face.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness!"
"Your Highness, please rest assured that we will fully cooperate with His Highness!"
All the gentlemen expressed their thanks again and again.
"The new chamber of commerce will replace the original trading fleet. Therefore, a lot of complicated things must be sorted out.
Then please go back first, and let's work out various regulations with the officials of Changshi Division.
I will have formal discussions with you in two days."
Zhu Gaochi said slowly.
"I respectfully obey His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's order!"
All the gentry responded again.
……
After these gentry slowly left, Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Di and Guo An with a puzzled look.
"Dad, teacher, our Prince Yan's fleet can now earn a lot of money from Goryeo every month.
Nowadays, the family is not short of money and manpower.
Why is it so easy to set up a chamber of commerce so that all the gentry can join in and get a share of the pie?"
Zhu Di looked at Guo An.
Guo Andao: "Your Highness, Your Majesty, it is precisely because our Prince Yan's palace is not short of money now that I suggested to Your Highness to let all the gentry join in!"
"Huh?"
Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but frown.
"What's the deep meaning of this, Guo Qing?"
Guo Andao: "Back to Your Highness, although these gentry's words are all directed towards our Palace of Prince Yan.
However, they all have families behind them, and in the end, interests must come first.
After all, it was the one who won them over!
Even if they are still looking towards Prince Yan's Mansion, as long as some people in their family have other ideas, they may still be affected.
Now, our Prince Yan's Mansion has branched out the trade with Yan Kingdom of Goryeo to give them some benefits.
Let them be completely tied to the chariot of Prince Yan's Mansion, that will be truly safe."
"Moreover, it can be regarded as finding a way out for these gentry who are heading towards Prince Yan's Mansion.
Even in the future, after that person succeeds to the throne, the Ming Dynasty will not be able to tolerate us and them in the Yan Palace. They, the gentry, can follow the Yan Palace to retreat to the Goryeo Kingdom without being implicated!
At the same time, according to the urinary nature of these gentry, as long as they can intervene in the Yan Kingdom of Goryeo, they will definitely not let go of buying fields and real estate in the Yan Kingdom, and they will not be able to help but help our Yan Palace to govern the Yan Kingdom."
"Also, if these gentry join the Chamber of Commerce, some of the former stewards of the caravan can be freed up to serve as officials in the Goryeo Kingdom.
The most important thing is that at least more than a thousand of the Yanshan Guards who originally escorted the ship can be used elsewhere..."
"Can the Yanshan Guards escorting the big ship be freed up?"
Hearing this, Zhu Di's eyes lit up.
"Guo Qing is really cunning!"
As for Zhu Gaochi, his focus is on completely tying those gentry to the chariot of Prince Yan...
"The teacher is really thoughtful!"
Guo An: "..."
However, when Guo An said this, Zhu Gaochi also knew how to treat those gentry.
He stood up and bowed his hands respectfully towards Guo An.
"Teacher, don't worry, I will definitely build the Chamber of Commerce!"
"The prince is cautious and steady, and the ministers can rest assured!"
……
The second day.
Zhu Gaochi discussed the next day in detail with a group of scribes from the Changshi Division.
The third day.
Without waiting for Zhu Gaochi to send someone to notify him, the gentry came to the door one by one.
Then, view details of the fleet's financial transactions in previous years.
All the gentlemen were filled with excitement again.
They never expected that the Yan Palace and Goryeo trade would be so profitable?
In this way, they really made a lot of money!
Next, everything will be easier to handle!
All the gentry are very active in providing money and people!
As for the threat from the imperial grandson of the capital, they have long forgotten it.
Soon.
Five days.
The Yan State Chamber of Commerce has been established.
A few more days passed.
Then we arrived at Beiping Prefecture for the autumn harvest.
Everyone was busy with the autumn harvest, and there was no big commotion.
However, Zhang Yu, who was sent to the south by Zhu Di, returned to Beiping Mansion with hundreds of old sugar craftsmen and their families.
The Shen family is quite familiar with these craftsmen, and no one dares to cause trouble.
The emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, who lived deep in the East Palace, also received reports from Huang Zicheng.
The attitude of the Shen family makes His Royal Highness the Grandson very satisfied.
"Then the Shen family is quite sensible!"
"Your Highness is the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, and the Shen family is just a merchant's family. How dare you disobey His Highness's orders!"
Neither Zhu Yunwen nor Huang Zicheng paid the slightest attention to the Shen family.
However, after talking about the gentry in Beiping Mansion, Zhu Yunwen's face darkened.
"I heard that all the gentry in Beiping Mansion are very treacherous and cunning. A large number of them were sent by Mr. Huang to persuade them on the first day. On the second day, they all hurried to Prince Yan's Mansion to plead guilty to Prince Yan?"
Hearing this, Huang Zicheng couldn't help but stand up again, with a guilty look on his face, "This is a poor minister who has done something wrong. Please punish me, Your Highness!"
Zhu Yunwen quickly said with a gentle face: "This is the disloyalty of those gentry, what does it have to do with Mr. Huang?"
