Feng Ziying pressed her hand on the window frame and remained silent.
As far as he knew, it turned out that Prince Yi Zhong had close relations with the gentry and merchant families in the south of the Yangtze River, mainly the Jinling New Four. The Zhen family in particular was Prince Yi Zhong's main partner. However, the Zhen family was affected by Lin Ruhai's policies in the salt industry.
Checks and balances failed to achieve the results he wanted, and with the promotion of sea trade smuggling, its original pattern was broken, causing huge losses in profits.
I didn’t expect that the other party could recover so quickly. This shows that he not only had the support of the gentry in Jiangnan, but also had the secret support of a considerable number of officials and merchants.
Now the other party is taking advantage of the rise of Yinzhuang to start getting involved in the financial field. Of course, Haitong Yinzhuang is not afraid of challenges.
A new industry must not only have new concepts and concepts, but more importantly, it must have sufficient talent formation mechanisms and systems. Duan Xigui had previously started to go through staged education and training in Shandong, through the introduction of new arithmetic, Arabic numerals and double-entry accounting.
Training, and then through internships at each branch of Fengrunxiang and Haitong Bank in the early stage, as well as the establishment and improvement of the risk control assessment system for bank lending, this series of training and improvement methods, the training system gradually established is not everyone's
Can be copied.
What Prince Yitada and his group are doing is nothing more than an old-fashioned money bank. At most, it just adds a general deposit and withdrawal function. As long as their operating efficiency cannot be upgraded and the lending function cannot be effectively realized, then
Everything is just illusion, there is no way to compete with Haitong Yinzhuang.
At present, Prince Yoshitaka is just busy trying to find a more secret channel to realize the transportation of money.
However, this is still a new trend, indicating that Prince Yi Zhong has not given up, and is even engaged in more secretive and active activities. Thinking that Tang Binyin and Han Jing went to the south of the Yangtze River to gain fame for Prince Yi Zhong, it is estimated that Jia Jing also disappeared.
It was Nan Qian who planned the economic business for Prince Yi Zhong, and Feng Ziying was a little worried about what the deposed prince was planning to do.
Is he planning to spend a lot of time with Emperor Yonglong and fight for his health, and wait until Emperor Yonglong's body can't bear it and pass away before he attacks again?
But Emperor Yonglong would not fail to see this. If he really realized that his life span was limited, Feng Ziying believed that even if he had to take certain risks, Emperor Yonglong would definitely deal with the two potential threats of Prince Yi Zhong and the Supreme Emperor.
“Do these banks have any business dealings with our Haitong Bank?” Feng Ziying asked after a long time.
"I came here just to borrow money and discuss setting up a guild. But according to Jia Yun, they are not active. It is probably just a gesture. They are worried about arousing suspicion or attracting Haitong's hostility..." Wang Wenyan shook his head.
Shake his head.
"Well, Wen Yan, please pay more attention, I think these two banks will definitely have some special effects..." Feng Ziying thought for a while, "But there is no need to delve too much into it, this should not be our focus...
"
"Sir, your foundation is in Yongping Mansion, right? I heard from Yao Qing that the iron works and charcoal yards in Lulong and Qian'an are quite large, and they need to be further expanded. There is also the cement plant.
It is said that the supply of cement produced exceeds demand, and there are not enough cement barrels around to sell..."
Wang Wenyan really admires this boss. He became famous instantly through his studies and scientific examinations, and his behavior is just capable. Why do he still have so many weird things in his mind?
Iron smelting can create new techniques, and burning charcoal can come up with new ways. Nowadays, it is even invented to use lime and slag powder to calcine cement. The key thing is that when it meets water, it will be diluted into rice slurry, which can be used to smear houses, city walls and floors.
It solidifies and hardens quickly. If you add sand and pisolite, it becomes the all-purpose weapon that masons dream of.
"In Wenyan, Yongping Prefecture is rich in iron ore, coal, and limestone. It is a geomantic treasure land. With the opening of Yuguan port, the iron materials and cement produced can be transported to various places through this road. After the Mongols retreated, we
I plan to make good use of these two years to build up Yongping Mansion. By then, Yongping Mansion will not only be the number one mansion in Beijing and Tokyo, but also the number one mansion in Northland."
Feng Ziying is very confident. Yongping Prefecture is rich in resources, including coal, iron, and limestone, which are the basic raw materials for modern industry. It is also close to the capital, the grassland areas outside the pass, and Yuguan Port. It can be said that it has both resources and markets.
The refugees brought by the Mongolian invasion can further supplement the labor force. The only thing to do now is to start pilot projects. The next step can be larger-scale development and construction, making Yongping Mansion a real coal-iron complex construction base.
"Sir, I think you might not be able to stay in Yongping Mansion for two or three years." Wang Wenyan shook his head, "Of course Yongping Mansion is very important in your mind, but that's because you want to do practical things to change the face of the country.
people, but for the court, no matter how iron Yongping Prefecture can produce, it is not more important than the stability of the surrounding situation. Although the Mongols will retreat soon, what about the situation in the southwest? The Japanese harassment seems to be insignificant.
, but if the Japanese are connected by the same thread as the Donglu, Mongols and Bozhou, then it will not be simple."
Wang Wenyan's words hit on Feng Ziying's biggest worry, and Wang Wenyan has not yet mentioned the hidden danger that Feng Ziying is most worried about - the White Lotus Sect. If this is involved, there will be wars everywhere.
If the White Lotus Sect also takes the opportunity to start an uprising, Feng Ziying feels that the situation will be even worse than the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty in the previous life.
The only thing that makes Feng Ziying feel at ease is that the climate in Shaanxi and Shanxi has been good in the past two years. Although it is not a good year, it is still passable. If Shaanxi and Shanxi also suffer from drought for two or three years in a row, then it will really not be possible.

The long-standing shortcomings were too deep and difficult to recover from. From the emperor to the cabinet ministers, the Zhou court could not be considered incompetent. However, it took time to slowly resolve these problems one by one.
“Wen Yan, do you think the imperial court will transfer me back to the Ministry of War to put out the fire?” Feng Ziying frowned.
The Ministry of War has already gathered many capable people. Sun Chengzong went to Sichuan, but Xiong Tingbi was going to the Ministry of War. He was also a capable person, and Yuan Keli was not bad either. With the addition of Yang Sichang and Zheng Chongjian, Feng Ziying felt that there was no need for her to go.
"That's not necessarily the case. It depends on where trouble is likely to occur." Wang Wenyan paused, "Yao Qing has temporarily relaxed its pursuit of the White Lotus Sect during this period, but judging from early clues, Shuntian,
Hejian, Baoding, Zhending, and Guangping all have extremely deep foundations, which can affect the whole body, and also involve a lot of the border town army, but it is difficult to investigate further..."
“So Wenyan, do you think the White Lotus Church took the opportunity to cause trouble?” Feng Ziying attached great importance to Wang Wenyan’s analysis and judgment.
"Sir, I think it's not easy for you to say that it's like the Taiping Road in the Later Han Dynasty. The branch factions of the White Lotus Sect are too complex and there are many internal conflicts. That is, the conflicts between Beizhi, Shandong and Beizhi prefectures
The White Lotus Sect, the Wenxiang Sect, the Wuwei Sect, and the Bangchui Sect all have their own leaders. Although they are related to each other, it is not easy to make them all obey the command of one person. But the king of Yongping Mansion
The clan does have great influence..."
Yongping Prefecture's problems are also very difficult and complicated. Feng Ziying also knows that it is not that simple to play the farming and violent soldier flow smoothly.
The White Lotus Sect in Yongping Prefecture is very powerful, especially in Luanzhou. Similarly in Changli, the gentry who colluded with the Japanese and the Japanese gentry to invade and occupy the salt field cannot be delayed any longer, especially now that the Japanese have begun to appear in Nanzhili. If it is not
Solve it as soon as possible. If the Japanese spread northward to Gyeonggi, the problem will be even greater.
Only by solving these two problems can we talk about economic development with peace of mind.
If it weren't for the Mongolian invasion, Feng Ziying originally wanted to completely solve the problem of encroaching on the salt field, but now it's winter. According to Wu Yaoqing's information, the Japanese are no longer in the area of Xiangyun Island and Yuetuo, so they probably should choose a warmer place to go.
It's winter, so we have to wait until spring next year to take action against these people.
"Hey, it's so difficult to do something. I thought coming to Yongping Mansion would be the best choice, but now it seems that everywhere there are problems of this kind and you have to face them one by one." Feng Ziying
Frowning.
“Sir, don’t you also say that this experience comes from doing one thing well? These things you do are right under the eyes of the imperial court. I believe the imperial court can see it.”
Wang Wenyan thinks this is a good thing for Feng Ziying. Being too involved in court military affairs is not good for Feng Ziying's growth. Not many ministers of the Ministry of War enter the cabinet. Generally, there are opportunities only in times of turmoil, but this kind of turmoil is impossible.
It will continue until Feng Ziying's age and qualifications are appropriate.
After Wang Wenyan left, Feng Ziying thought about it again. After all, it was still a matter of resume, qualifications and experience accumulation. She had only been an official for a few years and was less than twenty years old. How could she still be a general? I really thought she would be willing to do so.
Isn’t it the time for Luo Twelve to pay homage to the prime minister?
The more I think about it, the more I feel like time is running out. I really want to go back to Yongping Mansion as soon as possible and urge the Inner Khalkha people to withdraw their troops quickly. All kinds of undertakings here must be started quickly.
Feng Ziying has prepared to develop the cement industry as much as possible, especially building cement roads from Lulong and Qian'an Iron Works and Charcoal Fields to the two county towns, Lulong and Qian'an to Yuguan, so that there will be no
Affected by the rainy season and ice and snow season, fully mobilizing transportation capacity has basically won the support of businessmen from Shanxi and Shaanxi. This can also be regarded as a demonstration route, which can greatly promote the display and promotion of the use of cement.
As Wang Wenyan said, if he doesn't stay in Yongping Mansion for long, he should at least lay the foundation of these industries so that the people behind him will not be distracted by the government.
