Although this wave of people who have joined the board of directors are all members of the Emperor's family, Yang Xuan also understands that these people have energy and are the top backers.
He is not worried that these people will join forces to drive him out of the board of directors. After all, the people of the royal family cannot be too harmonious, and the interests involved are too deeply entangled, and he is the one who connects them together.
And looking at it from another perspective, this is salt. It has been controlled by the government for thousands of years, but Yang Xuan can actually break a piece out of the royal family's mouth. Isn't this enough for him?
Although the emperor and the princes were all present at the shareholders' meeting in Prince Hui's palace, the people attending the meeting were not themselves, but a representative from their respective families.
His Majesty the Emperor even directly asked Wang Daban to come forward. This time the shareholders' meeting confirmed several things.
First of all, the name of the company was decided, called Shengfa Company.
Sheng means prosperity; Fa means development, hence the name Shengfa.
Secondly, there is the distribution of shares.
His Majesty the Emperor's shares are naturally 10% unshakable. The other five princes, including His Royal Highness Prince Chun, plus six Prince Hui, each hold 13% of the shares, while Yang Xuan only has 13% of the shares left.
12% of the shares.
Yang Xuan fought hard for 20% of the 12%. According to these people, although Yang Xuan created the method of making salt, giving him 10% of the shares is already considered a huge deal.
Rewarded.
Then Yang Xuan lied about everything from the company's operations to its future development and new business expansion, and finally won 12% of the shares.
Although he doesn't have many shares, Yang Xuan is already satisfied. Even though the princes have more shares than him, when it comes time to distribute mineral salt, they still have to share their shares.
But Yang Xuan has no such intention at all. This 12% is his bottom line. Unless there is any particularly big move, it is impossible to continue to dilute it.
So if we really count, he probably has the largest number of shares, even more than His Majesty the Emperor.
Finally, the Board of Directors was formally established, with Yang Xuan as the Chairman and His Majesty the Emperor as the Honorary Chairman. The first resolution after the establishment of the Board of Directors was passed, which was to reduce the workload of His Royal Highness Prince Chun, such as the salt mines in the northwest and Jiangnan regions.
, it was left to the directors to develop individually.
It not only saves time and trouble, but also speeds up the rollout.
You directors can't just take money and not work, right?
But we still have to go to Jizhou Prefecture, Youzhou Prefecture in the north.
Because this time the board of directors obviously excluded the fourth prince.
Everyone also tacitly agreed not to mention it.
This shows that even in the heart of His Majesty the Emperor, this fourth prince is not very popular.
Although he led the army, he also trapped himself in Jizhou Mansion, far away from the center of power.
Yang Xuan didn't understand the entanglement. He only knew that he was in the relationship, and his partners were all from the royal family. In this prosperous dynasty, was there any more powerful partner?
Time flies, and the Lantern Festival is here in a blink of an eye. According to the custom of the Dasheng Dynasty, this day is the most lively, even more than the New Year's Eve night.
There are many special programs on this day. For example, this day is an auspicious day. Regardless of temples or Taoist temples, this day is full of incense, and there is an endless stream of people seeking children, marriage, fame, and health.
As more people went to the temple, temple fairs developed. The temple fairs became more lively, and there were all kinds of food, drinks, entertainment, and useful things.
At night, there are lantern shows and fireworks, and there are more pedestrians in the city than during the day.
All the stores under Weijixian have launched promotional activities, and they are equally lively.
Yang Xuan also had to help in the store.
Of course, Guan Yunrong and Shopkeeper Zhou each worked in a branch, and they were busy until midnight, when they finally came to an end.
The exhausted people met again at the hot pot restaurant. After all, they themselves also had to celebrate the festival.
The most important thing is that tomorrow, several people will leave Yingtian Mansion.
His Royal Highness Prince Chun's itinerary has been planned long ago. He will set off tomorrow. As the bodyguard assigned to the Salt Division by the Yulin Guards, his eldest brother Yang Xiao will also accompany him.
There is also Guan Yunrong, who is going to Luoyang tomorrow. She was supposed to go back to Luoyang after her third year of junior high school, but she has delayed it until now and can no longer delay it.
So tonight is still a banquet for these people.
Everyone has something to explain. His Royal Highness Prince Chun once again told Yang Xuan to take care of Lu Jing.
The eldest brother Yang Xiao also confessed something, saying that he asked Yang Xuan to take time to go to his hometown in the past few days, burn a stick of incense in front of his parents' graves, and also go to the Yang family ancestral hall to worship. After all, they are the same
Ancestor, now that Yang Xuan has made a career, he should go there for both emotional and rational reasons.
Originally, Yang Xiao was going to go with Yang Xuan, but since the second day of the new year, he has gone to Yulinwei to report, and for a few days, he has to do it every day to understand the work process and so on.
Especially today, not to mention the Habayashi Guards who are on patrol, even the Kingo Guards who are responsible for the security of the imperial city are standing guard.
So Yang Xiao never had the chance to go back to the Yang Ancestral Hall to worship.
Finally we arrived at Guan Yunrong, but in front of so many people, Guan Yunrong said nothing and just handed a lantern bought on the roadside to Yang Xuan.
There is a poem on the lantern:
After we say goodbye, I don’t know how far you are,
It's so desolate and depressing.
As we travel further and further away, there are no more books,
If the water is vast, where can the fish sink?
The wind blows the bamboos in the deep night, and the autumn rhyme is heard,
Thousands of leaves and a thousand voices are filled with hatred.
Therefore, I look for it in my dream on my single pillow,
The dream turns into a lamp and burns into flames.
This poem talks about the longing and melancholy after farewell. Unfortunately, Yang Xuan's skills were limited and he only read it with a partial understanding. After saying thank you, he put the lantern aside.
Then I took Guan Yunrong to talk about the preparations for a hotpot restaurant in Luoyang.
This matter has been discussed a long time ago, and Yang Xuan just warned him again.
Guan Yunrong muttered every word, her face almost overflowing with sadness, but it seemed that Yang Xuan didn't see it.
Of course, Yang Xuan is not stupid and naturally understands Guan Yunrong's thoughts, but he is not interested in this matter now, so Guan Yunrong's flirtatious look is like throwing it to a blind man.
Early the next morning, Yang Xiao was ready to go. He was dressed in the official robe of the Chief Banner Officer of the Yulin Guards, which made him even more heroic. After bidding farewell to Yuan Shuyi and Xuanxuan, he set off for the Yankesi Yamen.
Now in the Yang Mansion, in addition to Yang Xuan and his eldest brother's family of three, there are seven or eight servants and maids. His Royal Highness Prince Chun even arranged for two to guard the courtyard.
Before going out, he patted Yang Xuan on the shoulder: "Brother, I will leave the house to you."
"Don't worry, brother. You should pay more attention to safety when you go out. Especially when you go to the state capital, try to keep a low profile and don't conflict with the people there."
"knew."
The two brothers said goodbye.
Yuan Shuyi and Xuanxuan cried like tears.
After his eldest brother left, Yang Xuan also tidied up and prepared to go back to his hometown to pay homage to the ancestral hall.
