Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 948 Jia Rong: Don't give the slightest opportunity to take advantage of today

Jia Rong pretended not to hear the old lady's unreconciled remarks.

He said with a smile: "The impeachment of Uncle Lin that suddenly appeared in the court this time should be because Uncle Lin's first initiative to dry sea salt was exposed, and that's why he was attacked by the forces behind the Huaiyang salt merchants!"

"After all, their losses this time are really miserable. Maybe they will lose a lot of income after Huaiyang salt merchants go bankrupt!"

"It's still the same sentence, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents!"

"They didn't have the courage to find fault with the current situation for a while. They just failed in the battle with the official bosses behind the Cao Gang, so they can only vent their dissatisfaction to Uncle Lin's moldy hair?"

Having said that, his face was full of disdain.

But at this moment, all the people in Rongqing Hall breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense and dignified atmosphere was swept away.

The worry on Jia Min's face also disappeared.

What I am most afraid of is that I don't know anything, and I don't know how to deal with and fight back.

Now that he knew the specific reason, coupled with Lin Ruhai's current situation, he naturally relaxed the tension in his heart, knowing that the problem was not very serious.

"Then why don't they trouble Shi Ding?"

At this time, Master She suddenly said: "After all, he is responsible for the drying of sea salt!"

The old lady rolled her eyes and said with a sneer: "Idiot, if it is aimed at Shi Ding, isn't it deliberately aimed at the present?"

"I really want to piss off today, I have their good fruit to eat!"

Today, since Shi Ding was quietly allowed to secretly experiment with the method of drying sea salt, and then through the channel of the Cao Gang, the private salt sales network of Huaiyang salt merchants was smashed, and the purpose of cleaning the salt administration is clearly revealed.

In today's present, strength is not just for fun, even the emperor doesn't have much ability to contain it.

Today, with partial military power in hand, even the cabinet doesn't have many capacity constraints.

The old lady and the others didn't know that at this time, the people in charge of the Jinmen Saltworks had been replaced by members of the Founding Xungui Group.

That's right, Jia Rong, on behalf of the four major families in Jinling, has reached a tacit agreement with the founding Xungui Group to form an alliance of interests related to sun-dried sea salt.

As for Shi Ding, because of his meritorious service, he was promoted to the commander of the newly established Salt Army Capital, comparable to a third-rank general in the army with real power.

If it was aimed at Shi Ding at this time, it would not only be a slap in the face of today, but also a war with the founding of the founding group.

As long as the brain is not broken, it will not mess around at this time.

"Okay, don't worry, everyone!"

Jia Rong chuckled and said, "The matter is not a big threat to us, but we must be careful, and we can't let the current opportunities flow smoothly!"

"Brother Rong, what do you mean by that?"

The old lady asked curiously: "Could it be possible, what ideas are there today?"

"Didn't I just say that before, Uncle Lin saved himself and came up with such a big killer as the method of drying sea salt!"

Jia Rong said with a smile: "The matter is too big, so now Uncle Lin has to be transferred away, and even promoted!"

"In my heart today, I have never regarded Uncle Lin as one of my own. If there is a chance, I will naturally not mind suppressing it!"

"This time, Uncle Lin was suddenly impeached by many courtiers. I am worried that it will not be a good thing to push the boat against Uncle Lin now!"

"Don't think I'm scaremongering. With Uncle Lin's performance in Jin Province, plus the support of our four major families in Jinling, and even the founding honor group, there is a high possibility that he will directly enter the cabinet!"

Jia Rong didn't realize it at first, but when the impeachment of Lin Ruhai suddenly became stronger in the court, she quickly realized it.

Not only do we have to guard against the current situation, but we also have to be careful of those old foxes in the cabinet taking advantage of their strength to fish in troubled waters.

From Lin Ruhai's standpoint, the cabinet chiefs would not welcome him in.

Not to mention, if Lin Ruhai were to enter the cabinet, one of them would have to retire and go home to retire.

Speaking of it, Lin Ruhai's luck is not bad. Since breaking away from the vortex of the Yangzhou tour, Lin Ruhai's subsequent experience can be said to be smooth.

Originally, he was transferred to Jin Province because he planned to run into a wall, but because of the relationship with the Ning Mansion and his own ability, he managed to flourish in Jin Province with outstanding achievements.

Because of the relationship with the Ning Mansion and Jia Rong's matchmaking, Lin Ruhai was also accepted by the core bosses of the founding noble group and regarded him as one of their own.

As long as the opportunity is right, the founding honor group doesn't mind at all, and pushes Lin Ruhai into the cabinet as a representative, becoming one of the cabinet bosses.

Such an encounter is naturally a great blessing for Lin Ruhai.

"So, what does Brother Rong plan to do, and how does Rongfu need to cooperate?"

The old lady looked serious and asked directly: "Is there anything wrong?"

"Don't worry, old lady, everything will be fine!"

Jia Rong smiled lightly, and said to herself: "I will handle this matter myself, and it won't take long for you to hear the news!"

Arriving here, this Rongqing Hall discussion is completely over.

Jia Rong said goodbye and left, and quickly arranged the matter.

Soon, there were rumors spreading in the city of Beijing again, and the protagonist of the rumors was Lin Ruhai, who was impeached quite severely at the court.

The news has been circulating in the city wells of the capital for a long time, and many people in the city are very curious about the next treatment of the court.

The content of the rumor is very simple, that is, Lin Ruhai is the initiator of the method of drying sea salt, and now he is transferred to Jin Province to protect him.

The reason why so many impeachments were suddenly received this time is because of the venting of those whose interests have been damaged.

The people in the capital suddenly realized that they were actively discussing this matter.

Lin Ruhai's reputation quickly spread among the common people and received quite good praise.

After all, the people in Beijing's urban wells can enjoy the benefits of sun-dried sea salt, which is enough for them to speak well of Lin Ruhai.

Rumors in the market quickly entered the ears of many officials in the capital, which made the mid-level and lower-level officials who were a little bit puzzled suddenly realized.

With so many eyes and ears nowadays, it is natural that they immediately knew the public opinion in Beijing.

Immediately, he couldn't help chuckling, and said leisurely: "I don't want to, that kid Jia Rong from Ningfu's reaction is extremely fast, and he has established a good reputation for Lin Ruhai so easily!"

"In that case, let's miss this opportunity to suppress Lin Ruhai!"

Dai Quan, who was standing by the side, remained silent, but he was quite surprised in his heart. He didn't expect that there would be a plan to target Lin Ruhai, the governor of Jin Province?

It can only be said that Jia Rong's caution is not unreasonable.

As the inner minister of the Daming Palace, although Daqian does not have such secret service agencies as Jinyiwei, Dongchang and Xichang, it has everything it should have.

It's just that Daqian's spy agency is not well-known, not as famous as Jinyiwei.

Dai Quan's news is quite well-informed, and Jia Rong didn't deliberately conceal it, so it's easy to find out the inside story of Lin Ruhai's rumors about Lin Ruhai's appearance in the city well this time.

Presumably, it was also to tell his current thoughts, otherwise how could he give up targeting Lin Ruhai so easily?

Just talking about it in the court hall can at least suppress Lin Ruhai for a term.

It's just that the public opinion in the market is so enthusiastic at the moment, if you target Lin Ruhai today, it will inevitably be labeled as mean and ungrateful.

This kind of thing also made Dai Quan secretly vigilant!

I knew earlier that 'accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger', but I didn't expect to hold grudges so much today.

Of course, he knew what was going on with Lin Ruhai's matter. Wasn't the reason why he tossed about the method of sun-drying sea salt to save himself?
At the beginning, the emperor and the present did not care about Lin Ruhai, but only asked him to collect enough salt tax every year. As for Lin Ruhai's situation, they didn't care at all.

Which one of the cabinet bosses is not clear about this matter?

As a result, Lin Ruhai forced Jinjin to transfer him away, and he went ashore smoothly from then on, and this guy was also hated by Jinjin.

Co-authored, a competent official like Lin Ruhai is not a fart in today's heart.

Dai Quan couldn't help feeling chills in his heart, and his posture became more respectful and cautious.

It can only be said that fortunately Lin Ruhai is not a pure or lonely official, otherwise he would be treated like this today, and he would either resign and go home directly, or be boiled to death in office.

Seeing that the rumors released were effective, Jia Rong didn't put too much thought into it because he didn't take any action against Lin Ruhai.

There is a boy in the family, the fun of teasing one's own son is much more interesting than participating in messy affairs outside.

Besides, there are some things that don't require him to come forward in person. Ethnology has trained so many outstanding students, and it's not just a decoration.

For example, the salt field in Jinmen is no longer under the management of Shi Ding, so naturally Wang Ziteng will not easily join in.

Although the people who took over were still the people of the Founding Kingdom Xungui Group, but there are some things that are not easy to continue to participate in.

There will be a lot of cooperation that should be there, but it is impossible for Wang Ziteng to devote himself wholeheartedly.

The port construction on his side has also reached a critical time.

In other words, don't look at the turmoil about the drying of sea salt, which just covers up the scene of Jinmen Port, which is developing like a raging fire.

The leading role of the four major families in Jinling is not just for fun.

Looking at the offshore cargo ships belonging to the four major families in Jinling, transporting goods from north to south one by one, earning a lot of money, the local forces and businesses in Jinling can't sit still.

Isn't it just offshore sea ships, isn't it just the passage of goods from north to south?

They can get it casually, and follow the cargo ships of the four major Jinling families to Jinmen.

In the beginning, only the forces that had relatives and friends with the four major families of Jinling participated in the alliance.

Later, relatives connected to relatives, and friends led to friends, so the number gradually expanded, and the number of offshore cargo ships traveling between Jinling and Jinmen gradually increased.

On the Jinmen side, there is also a fleet headed by the founding Xungui Group, which also started the North-South trade movement.

Originally, the founding Xungui Group had a large number of land properties and shops in Tongzhou, so it was very convenient to join in.

The merchants in the Northland are not fools. They may not be able to get offshore ships for a while, but they can exist as material suppliers.

As a result, the few berths in Jinmen Port are always busy every day, and there are never any stops for ships entering and leaving.

Sometimes by coincidence, ships ready to enter the port can be dispatched several miles away.

Seeing such a spectacular scene, Wang Ziteng couldn't calm down for a long time.

What Jia Rong said before is indeed true, and the development potential of Jinmen is quite good.

How long has passed, and the weather at the port is no worse than those river ports that have been developed for many years.

The monthly cargo throughput is increasing.

The required labor force and various tools are also increasing, and the construction of the port must keep up with it as soon as possible, otherwise the development momentum will be greatly restricted.

Some local products from the north and the south cannot stand the long wait.

At this time, Jia Rong sent a letter to tell him that the outstanding students of Ningfu Women's School planned to go to Jinmen to see what happened in person, so Wang Ziteng must be well received.

Wang Ziteng's heart was shocked, but he was overjoyed immediately.

He was quite looking forward to the group of female students from Ningfu Women's School.

The planning map of Song Quanzhou port that was given to him before helped him a lot.

After all, the construction of a port in Jinmen was a private act of the four major families in Jinling, and they could not get the support of the court for a while.

Wang Ziteng didn't know much about the port situation. He played in the southern port when he was young, but it's been too long so how can he remember clearly?

Even if people are sent to study there, they may not be welcome there, and some unique functions and areas are not open to outsiders at all.

Besides, even if people are willing to let go, the conditions are not necessarily what Wang Ziteng is willing to agree to.

The greed of the Southeast clan is absolutely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Since there is a lot of price to pay for external requests, we can only tap the potential internally.

How could he have thought that the students of Ningfu Women's School would have such great abilities?
Not to mention that the planning and architectural drawings of Song Quanzhou Port were produced in a short period of time, and the series of opinions put forward after that, as well as the optimized planning drawings, made him very eye-opening and surprised.

A group of girls who are not very old, and the oldest Xue Baochai is not even as old as Ji, have such talents and abilities, it feels like picking up a treasure.

Not to mention, there are many facilities proposed by Jia Rong in the port planning blueprint produced by the female school.

Such as horse-drawn tracks, pulley block ceilings, etc., are all facilities that are not available in southeast coastal ports.

These things are all tested in the real scene sand table after deduction, and the effect is quite obvious.

Wang Ziteng had seen the latest planning and design, and was very pleased to be honest.

It's just that he can't understand some things, and none of the staff around him can fully understand, which is very embarrassing.

He didn't have the face to take the initiative to go to the capital to ask, some things he really couldn't say.

Unexpectedly, when you fell asleep, someone would bring you pillows, and the female school organized a group of outstanding people who participated in the blueprint planning of the port to visit Jinmen.

He naturally understood that playing was just a superficial rhetoric, and the real purpose was to actually inspect the specific environment of Jinmen Port and help them solve their doubts.

I feel ashamed when I think about it, I feel like I have spent most of my life on dogs.

Fortunately, the students from the Ningfu Women's School Group are basically relatives and juniors, so it makes sense to ask them to help, at least there is no need to have too much psychological burden, and there is no need to owe any favors...
