After Mao Pijiang left, the old man fixed his eyes on his son and said, "Didn't you always want to travel? Dad is ready now."

The old man's name is Fang Kongxuan, and his son's name is Fang Yizhi. Hearing that his father agreed, he immediately asked in surprise: "Really?"

Fang Kongxuan nodded and said, "But you are only allowed to go to the capital."

When Fang Yizhi heard it, he couldn't help asking: "Why?"

"Too many things have happened in the capital, all of which are unheard of before. And most of the things are only implemented or popular in the capital. After all, Nanjing is a bit far away. You go and see and listen to it, which is much better than joining some kind of rehabilitation society." It's gone." Fang Kongxuan explained with emotion.

In the past, apart from political affairs, the South led the North in other things, but now it is a bit different.

In terms of culture, for example, the drama that was just popular in Jiangnan was passed down from the capital.

There are more economic aspects. Banks, state-owned enterprises, cement road construction, etc. all first appeared in the capital, and they have not even been seen in Nanjing.

All these signs made Fang Kongxuan feel that the capital had a great chance, but he already had an official position and could not enter the capital casually.And the son just happened to be selected as a scholar, so he can travel around, maybe he can find an opportunity to improve himself to a higher level.

He knew that he was not the only one who had such thoughts, and many well-informed people had already noticed the difference in the capital, and sent their children to the capital one after another.

Needless to say, my son's intelligence is just a matter of imperial examinations, and it can be said that thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge.Even if you have the ability, you may not be able to advance smoothly.

After going to the capital, it would be best if you can find a shortcut, even if you don't, it's good to gain knowledge.

Therefore, he told his son this plan and asked him to go to the capital to have a look.

Fang Yizhi didn't care about his father's restrictions. His interest was not in officialdom, but he wanted to visit various research institutes established by the capital.It is said that research institutes will also be established locally, but of course he is more interested in the research institutes of the capital.

"When you go on a trip, you can't lose your homework. You must bring the books you should bring, understand?" Fang Kongzhang urged.

"My child understands." Fang Yizhi agreed repeatedly.

Under the butterfly effect triggered by Zhong Jinwei, the historical four sons of Fushe no longer exist, and the corresponding characters have embarked on an unknown path.

Not long after, the imperial envoy announced the crime of rehabilitating the society, manipulating the imperial examination system, and attempting to control the national talent ceremony, which is a very serious crime.The behind-the-scenes mastermind is a large salt merchant in Lianghuai, and the evidence is conclusive.All the homes of the main envoys were ransacked, and all relevant persons were escorted to Beijing.

This once again caused a sensation in Nanjing City. No one thought that such a famous literary society, the famous Mr. Xizhang, was actually controlled by others, and there was a behind-the-scenes boss, and he was also a rich and powerful salt merchant.

Immediately, some people came to their senses. The several large-scale rallies held by the Guangfu Society, which had never been seen since ancient times, were simply impossible without the support of large funds.

Of course, some sons and daughters of officials who participated in the restoration of the society also participated in the donation.But these are just small heads, who were secretly warned by the imperial envoy, and then the records were erased.

Immediately afterwards, under the intervention of the imperial envoy, the Nanjing Branch of the Daming Royal Bank was re-established.In addition, the Nanjing Branch of the Daming Weimin Bank, which was participated by all levels of government offices in Nanjing, was also established, and took the lead in paying the reserve fund to the Nanjing Branch of the Royal Bank.At the same time, it announced that the deposit and loan interest of Weimin Bank is the same as that of Jingshi, and that bank notes are issued, which can be exchanged from north to south. People from all over the world are welcome to deposit and loan.

After finishing these tasks, the imperial envoy withdrew the troops and returned to Beijing under the farewell of officials at all levels in Nanjing.

Compared with the capital, the Jiangnan area has more business people, and the interest on private loans is also higher.As soon as the deposit and loan interest of Weimin Bank came out, the people were jubilant and praised by all.In a blink of an eye, he forgot the horror of the army everywhere arresting scholars.

Under the strong pressure of Weimin Bank Nanjing Branch and public opinion, the private lenders and banks who suffered a lot had to join forces with Weimin Bank to compete with the bank, just like Jingshi's bank.But these are all things after the imperial envoy left.

While public opinion in Nanjing was discussing these new policies, there was a person standing in the lobby of the governor's yamen in Fujian, waiting to be received by the governor.

The governor's personal guard had been in the backstage for a while, but the governor still didn't show up.

Anyone with a discerning eye will know that the governor probably doesn't like this person, or he wants to give this person a bad reputation and let him hang out first.

The person waiting in this hall is Yan Yingyuan who came to Fujian to report. Although he has been waiting for a long time, he also knows what the governor means by not coming out for so long.But he didn't mean to be unhappy at all, and he still waited quietly.

Yan Yingyuan's reaction, on the one hand, has something to do with his personality, and on the other hand, he himself is just a general, and he is the governor of Fujian, but his superior.It is common sense for superiors to let subordinates wait.

But no one greeted him, nor took him to the back office, leaving him alone in the lobby of the front office, which shows that the relationship between the superior and the subordinate is not harmonious.

Xiong Wencan, governor of Fujian, really meant this. He was very displeased that the imperial court had parachuted a general down.

You must know that there are no commanders, lieutenants, and generals in the Fujian Navy, and all of them are vacant. The biggest in the Navy is the coastal defense guerrilla Zheng Zhilong.

This Zheng Zhilong is the pirate recruited by Xiong Wencan, and he is extremely powerful.After turning into an officer and soldier, he used the resources of the government to kill and drive away his original accomplices and even sworn brothers. The nearby sea area is basically his world.

As a result, his business at sea was enormous, and the money flowed in.Of course, the profits obtained are naturally indispensable to the governor of Fujian.

Since Xiong Wencan recruited Zheng Zhilong along the coast of Fujian, not only have there been no more pirates infesting and causing harm to the place, but he can also make a fortune. This kind of thing is the most ideal state for an official.Xiong Wencan is very satisfied with the status quo and does not want the current situation to change in any way.

Therefore, in history, after receiving the recommendation of Yang Sichang, Emperor Chongzhen wanted to transfer Xiong Wencan to counter the rebellion based on his political achievements.As a result, he came up with a ridiculous "five difficulties and four musts" self-pollution in an attempt to stay in the south.

Although it is only a small general who has been transferred now, it is under his jurisdiction.But this participant will be Zheng Zhilong's superior, in charge of Zheng Zhilong.If there is a problem with the brain, if you do something, you will find a lot of tricks in the Fujian Navy, which is not good for Zheng Zhilong or him.

Therefore, he decided to discipline Yan Yingyuan properly.Although he knew that Yan Yingyuan must have a background in the capital, otherwise it would be impossible to transfer from the dangerous place of Denglai to the fat and fat place of the Fujian Navy.

But Emperor Shangao is far away, Fujian is too far away from the capital, and he is the top leader, at least he is a big official of the frontier, so he is not afraid of the background of the little general.

Based on this idea, he let Yan Yingyuan hang out for nearly an hour before walking to the front office with swaying steps.
