Before Xiao Yu became rich inexplicably, Wang Jing and others...
Yes, of course they are also very rich. They are all rich and powerful families with thousands of acres of fertile land.
But after that, it was weird.
Although no one said it,...from then on, when Wang Jing and others met for a drink, the atmosphere became inexplicably lower, and the glances that happened to pass by each other...everyone felt something strange.
, and of course, I am not the only one who is abnormal.
Obviously, everyone is planning something... So, what exactly are they planning?
The reason behind it is simply heartwarming, and soon...
Everyone understood, yes...he was planning to get involved, and so was everyone else!
The targets to be tampered with are of course the various new industries created after Li Sheng emerged.
Steel and the like, especially cotton spinning, are simply a source of endless wealth like the Yellow River.
Xiao Yu tied up his hands and secretly built one and suddenly became rich. If everyone builds a few more... wouldn't it mean that they would go to heaven?
It’s simply a pleasure…
But when they think about it, everyone can't help but feel a little embarrassed, because... no matter how much money they make, it's still Kong Fang's thing.
stink of money!
The key is that this is tantamount to admitting Li Sheng's awesomeness.
How can this be done?
There is a saying that Te Niang's head can be cut off or bleeding, but this bit of integrity cannot be lost!
But it is true to say so, but I really want to give up this idea...
Well, if this thought was really possible, it would not be thought about in my mind like this. If you think about it carefully, it means that it is impossible to say goodbye.
Therefore, after much deliberation, Wang Jing called Pei Ji, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe and others to a place to discuss this method together.
Of course, this discussion was a bit awkward, and the topic of the discussion was the issue of "integrity"...
But the problem is not big, after all, there is still the great scholar Pei Ji in charge.
No matter how embarrassing it is, a smooth tongue can explain it to you in minutes.
"good!"
"What a master of demons and skills to control demons!"
So after this, Wang Jing and others settled the matter, and the next step...
Since there is no integrity issue anymore, if you have to follow Li Sheng's butt to pick up food, of course you have to eat it all at once.
So everyone gathered together and decided not to do anything at all.
Just build two factories by one person without fear of running out of money.
At the same time... the children of the major noble families were quietly sent out to study in two academies in Lingzhou and west of Chang'an City.
You, Li Sheng, are not very capable of conspiracy and tricks, so why can’t I learn from you?
The same goes for business. After all, pirates are very evil now, and they are specifically targeting the ships of my brothers, and the price of land keeps falling... After all, the wealthy people are using their money to engage in industry and maritime trade.
There are so few people buying in the blink of an eye, so we might as well build factories.
But this way... Although there was still a lot of awkwardness in their minds, everyone felt much more relieved, and there was an inexplicable feeling of "relief".
And after that, things were really good for a while... Although it was not easy to run a factory, I actually made money afterwards!
As for the future of their disciples, Wang Jing and others suddenly felt more relieved.
Because...even though they are all celebrities, nowadays, celebrities and the like...although they are still famous, it has become increasingly difficult to exchange for political influence.
In addition to using the means of clear discussion to gain influence, the other way out for scholars is to directly enter the imperial examination through the imperial examination, but...
The imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty were not anonymous, not the anonymous system of the later Song Dynasty. In other words, only the five surnames and Qiwang were blacklisted... Even if they entered the dynasty, how good a position could they have?
Word?
In this way, the future of the five surnames and Qi Wang is equivalent to being ruined. For Wang Jing and others, this is not simply unacceptable, but simply impossible to accept - but there is no way, who let His Majesty be Li Er.
Therefore, when the disciples of the fifth surname and Qi Wang sneaked into the two universities in Lingzhou in the west of Chang'an City, Wang Jing and others were not very happy.
It's so exciting that I don't want to do it, because it means...
At least the disciples have a way out, and to study in the academy, although it is a bit embarrassing to study with Li Sheng... But in this way, at least there is hope for continuing wealth.
Have you not seen that in today's Hangzhou, Zhongzuo Institute, and Lingzhou commercial ports, all the students who come out of the college are in hot demand?
Wang Jing and others don't need their children to work for any maritime merchant in the future - this is a joke - but even if it is only in their own family's property, there is no doubt that this wave of children will definitely be worthy of the important task.
.
In the four words "prosperity, wealth, wealth and honor", there may be nothing you can do about "Rong Hua Gui", but "Hua He Fu" is guaranteed!
After all, the wealth of the maritime merchants comes from these academy talents who can create all kinds of magical things. Now, in several of my brothers' families, all their own children can learn these miraculous arts. In the future... five
Isn't it true that those with the surname Qiwang are still secure?
However, during this period, something suddenly happened to this bright future and beautiful vision.
First, a group of scholars from the academy went to Chang'an to beat Li Er's imperial drum, which caused a stir in the world, and then...
This group of students actually went and were sent away directly by Li Er.
In the name of gifts and rewards, these scholars were "feudally" sent overseas - anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not "feudal" at all, it is purely exile.
Of course, Wang Jing and others don't care about this kind of thing. They are just idiots of scholars... No, these brothers are the top celebrities in the circle of scholars. They have never seen each other before, so they are not interested at all...
But it just so happened that this time, among the group of college students that Li Er "feudally" sent to overseas wild lands, there were children of Wang Jing and others!
Moreover, it was almost the vast majority, and only one or two escaped.
This made Wang Jing and others extremely anxious, and they spent money like crazy to find a way around Chang'an, hoping to intercept the child at home.
This barbaric overseas land of yours still has a "feudal" past, which means it needs to be settled.
But overseas, they are all barbaric places. Not to mention these children, even experienced maritime merchants may not be able to endure the hardship, let alone these children?
But after this activity, Wang Jing and others found in despair that Li Er's will to "feudal" this time was extremely firm!...
After this, Wang Jing and others secretly explored what was going on. After gradually figuring out the whole story, Wang Jing and others became even more desperate...
Li Er's intention was clearly to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, so naturally it would be impossible to forgive him!
