Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 278
Putting down the memorial, Zhu Houzhao bowed with a smile and said, "Congratulations to Daming and congratulations to Emperor Father!"

As soon as these words came out, the hall was naturally full of echoes. Naturally, no one came out to make trouble after this, and no one would spoil the scenery at this time. Everyone knew that this was a big victory, and at the same time, they also understood in their hearts that this A big victory is of great significance to Daming, at least the northern border can be stable for many years.

Dayan Khan has lost a lot this time, and he will never dare to commit crimes in a short period of time. Besides, Mashan is about to enter autumn, and this year's winter may be difficult. Maybe he will send people to the capital to ask for surrender and open the market .

Although Zhu Houzhao wanted to say that he wanted to go to Liaodong, but at this time, Zhu Houzhao naturally couldn't say it, it was too unpleasant.In the next few days, the entire imperial court was filled with such an atmosphere of joy. In addition to the joy brought by the great victory of the imperial court, another thing that attracted people's attention was the auction of the qualification of the saltworks.

First, the Yantie Division canceled the qualifications, that is to say, no matter who you are, as long as you have money, you can come to bid for the auction, which mobilized the enthusiasm of countless people.

The nobles and gentry who didn't participate last time all participated this time. Everyone can see how much money the salt farm has made in the past five years. The income of 10,000+ taels for [-] taels, and the guaranteed harvest in drought and flood, is much safer than farming. Under such circumstances, who doesn't want to get involved?
As soon as this policy came out, many people rejoiced, and at the same time, many people cursed. Naturally, those who rejoiced were those who were ready to participate.

The ones who yelled were naturally the nobles and gentry who got the saltworks last time. Who would want someone to get involved in such a profitable business?As for those loose alliances that wanted to lower prices in series, they collapsed immediately.But this is not over yet, the second news came out very soon, if the auction price of the salt field is low, then the imperial court intends to take over by itself.

As soon as the news came out, many people opposed it, but there were also many people in favor, especially those who were officials. Once the salt farm was returned to the imperial court, the annual expenditure of the imperial court would increase.

In addition, the Yanzheng has returned to the court. Does this mean that everyone has a chance to make a fortune?This salt field is now Daming's No. [-] oil depot, and the oil and water in it is so oily that it can be filled with just a handful of hands.As soon as these two policies came out, countless memorials entered the palace, and the content was very simple, that is, to oppose or approve.

The two sides quarreled fiercely, of course, this is not the most frightening thing, the most frightening thing is that Qi Yizhai also wants to get involved.

As soon as the news came out, everyone was shocked. Qiyizhai has become a giant in the past few years. You must know that Qiyizhai is not just a simple shop, but represents a large number of gentry who have joined forces with Qiweizhai. Nobility and businessmen.Over the years, these people have relied on Qiweizhai to make a lot of money and make a fortune.

Once Qiyizhai wants to participate in the salt field, the partners of Qiqizhai scattered all over the place must be very, very eager to promote it.

If this matter is done, Qiyizhai will definitely have a big source of income, and it will definitely be full of profits at that time. These people really frightened many people if they want to get involved.

The news is more and more powerful, and the whole court is worried. Now everyone knows that the boss behind Qiyizhai is the prince. You must know that Qiqizhai and the eighth bureau are deeply involved, and the eighth bureau is dominated by His Royal Highness. Needless to say, the behind-the-scenes boss of Zhai?You must know that Qiyizhai is making a lot of money every day, but no one dares to make a move. This is the power of His Royal Highness.

Under such circumstances, many people have started to submit memorials, the purpose is very simple, that is, His Royal Highness, you cannot compete with the people for profit!
After Zhu Youtang heard about this, he naturally called Zhu Houzhao over. He didn't quite approve of his son's bringing the salt farm under the Qiyi Zhai.You must know that there are too many people involved in this matter, and the profits are too great. Once the crown prince really does this, he will really offend everyone from top to bottom!
"Are you really going to include the salt farm in Qiqizhai?" Zhu Youtang looked at his son and asked with a sullen face. He was going to have a good talk with his son today.

"Nothing!" Zhu Houzhao naturally knew what his father meant, and he would not do such a thing. When he established Qiweizhai, his purpose was to unite some people, let these people follow him, and form a huge benefit The group, when the time comes to bind these people with their own interests, the primary purpose is not for money.

Now that everything is on the right track, Zhu Houzhao will not destroy the current stable and peaceful situation.

After hearing his son's answer, Zhu Youtang was taken aback for a moment, then hesitantly asked: "Then what are the rumors outside?"

Zhu Houzhao said with a wry smile: "That's to scare them!" Zhu Houzhao told the whole story, emphatically mentioning the fact that those people wanted to jointly lower the price, and finally Zhu Houzhao said helplessly: "These people have been working for three days. If you don’t apply for Fangjiewa, you still have to grind and frighten them from time to time, otherwise they will turn their tails up.”

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Zhu Youtang pointed at his son and said, "You! You are narrow!"

Even though he said that, Zhu Youtang did not stop his son or blame him at all. It was all the money of the court, and it was all his own money. If these people were hacked, what would he do?Zhu Youtang has also been influenced by Zhu Houzhao in the past few years. Of course, the more important thing is that he is really rich.

Now the imperial court allocates two or three million taels, which is nothing at all. It is also possible to allocate millions of shi for food, or even ten thousand shi.Zhu Youtang is not stupid, of course he knows that this is a good thing, especially when there is no tax increase, what he does as an emperor is getting more and more comfortable, of course Zhu Youtang does not want the good situation to be ruined.

The next business Zhu Houzhao arranged for Qiyizhai was wool textiles, trade with North Korea, and even overseas trade.

Anyway, let these people make more money, and at the same time guide them to where they should go. Once this guidance is successful, with Daming's size, it will definitely be devastating.The international financial hot money led by the financial giants of Soros in the later generations can even destroy a country, or even a region, and Ming Dynasty also has this strength now.

Foreign dumping and plundering are definitely the most profitable. Once the nobles and gentry of Ming Dynasty see the speed of making money, they probably can't help it.When encountering obstacles, the first thing they think of is to fight them. Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents. Beating them doesn't need Zhu Houzhao to teach them.
