Chongzhen Chat Group
Chapter 608 Contract (Third update)
He only heard Sun Chuanting say to him: "But because many courtiers opposed it, saying that the establishment of a sea ban would not be beneficial to the Ming Dynasty! There is great resistance to the establishment of a sea ban!"
When Shiweila heard this, he immediately became anxious. He even forgot the purpose of Sun Chuanting's coming here. After all, it was hard to wait until the Ming Dynasty was about to open the sea ban, how could he not open it again!
That's the way people are, if there's something that didn't exist in the beginning, then it's gone. But if hope is given and then taken away, the reaction will be huge.
"Lord Zhongcheng, it is a great good thing to open the sea ban. Everyone will make money. Really..." Shiweila quickly pulled Tang Ruowang's sleeve and urged him to quickly translate to the governor of the Ming Dynasty.
When Sun Chuanting saw this situation, he felt a little disdainful in his heart. He looked like he was not a man of high official status, and he couldn't calm down at all.
With this in mind, he immediately waved his hand and said: "With the assurance of the Chief Assistant, the Emperor Qiankun made an arbitrary decision to change the tax system of the Shipping Department, increase taxes, and use actual income to silence those ministers."
If he had said this from the beginning, Shivella would definitely be disgusted with collecting taxes, especially collecting excessive taxes. But when he heard this, he nodded in agreement: "The emperor is wise, the emperor is wise, let money speak for itself." It’s the most powerful weapon to shut them up!”
Sun Chuanting felt happy when he saw that he was completely following his will, so he nodded and said: "But if the goods you come to trade with the Ming Dynasty are what the Ming Dynasty needs, you can get preferential tax treatment. For example, if you bring grain from Nanyang, You can get tariff concessions. However, I want to tell you that the food needed by the Ming Dynasty has a time limit. When the Ming Dynasty has enough food, the preferential treatment will be cancelled. For specific related matters, you can ask my subordinates clearly. "
As soon as Shivella heard this, he was anxious to know the whole thing. He hurriedly invited Sun Chuanting into the living room. He was arrogant at first and respectful at the end, but he was more dedicated than greeting his superiors.
He kept his posture very low. Firstly, because Sun Chuanting gave him power and showed a very strong side, which made him unable to be tough; secondly, if he imposed a sea ban and made business with the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely be able to make a lot of money, not to mention the huge wealth. Getting promoted and getting rich are expected. Such a good thing, for someone like him who took the risk to come to the Far East, it was something he looked forward to very much. In this case, let alone being arrogant and respectful, I would be willing to call Sun Chuanting's father.
After making a humble gesture, Schweira asked cautiously: "May I ask Master Zhongcheng, can I sign a contract in advance for this grain?"
Sun Chuanting nodded after hearing this and asked one of his staff to come directly to discuss with Fo Langji.
Seeing that he was free, Jinyiwei Xiaoqi Yu Biao stepped forward to greet him and said: "Master Zhongcheng, even though Bai Yangcui is dead, he can still carry out the mission, but I don't know who this person is. Please ask Master Zhongcheng to pay homage to Fo Lang." The robots are putting pressure on me, so they must know the identity of this person.”
Sun Chuanting, like other officials, actually rejected Jin Yiwei in his heart. But now Jin Yiwei's request was indeed reasonable and reasonable, so he nodded and agreed.
It didn't take long, or maybe the Fo Langji people were eager to do business, so a contract was quickly presented to Sun Chuanting.
After he took it, he just looked at the contract and said nothing for a long time. This made Shivera a little uneasy. He didn't know why the Ming governor had to look at it for so long. Was he dissatisfied with something?
In fact, Sun Chuanting actually entered the chat group and privately chatted about the contract with Emperor Chongzhen. At the beginning, Emperor Chongzhen had told him that the first contract would be given to him for inspection and would serve as a model in the future.
Emperor Chongzhen happened to be in the chat group at this time. After reading the contract and listening to Sun Chuanting explain the specific situation, he immediately gave instructions without hesitation: "The general principle is to divide the grain according to the amount. They imported as much food as possible to the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible!"
After thinking for a moment, he continued: "In addition, there are additional clauses requiring them to protect Ming merchants. If they find any behavior that persecutes Ming merchants, they will be disqualified from trading and retain the right to take revenge."
After the sea ban was lifted, Ming merchants would also go to sea in large numbers. However, the navy of the Ming Dynasty was not strong at this time, and before next year, the Fujian navy would be used in the northern war. It can also be said that there is no way to do it. Using additional clauses to restrict them can at least give Ming merchants more guarantees. And the imperial court will only receive more tax revenue if more people go overseas to do business.
Upon hearing this, Sun Chuanting immediately agreed, then quit the chat group and asked his staff and Fo Langjiren to revise the contract again, making changes according to the emperor's wishes and adding additional terms.
When Shivera heard so many requests, he felt a little embarrassed. Seeing this, Sun Chuanting immediately said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you don't sign. Hongyi will also receive a notice. I believe they will be happy to cooperate with Daming."
As soon as he heard that the Dutch were also going to participate, Schwera became anxious. At this time, the Portuguese and the Dutch have always been enemies, so how could they allow the other party to cooperate without participating in it themselves?
Therefore, Schwera immediately made concessions to the contents of the contract. When the final contract came into the hands of Emperor Chongzhen through the chat group, he was satisfied. In this way, the Portuguese and Dutch could collect and transport food for the Ming Dynasty, while the Ming Dynasty could only dump porcelain, silk, tea and other materials overseas.
At this point, the matter of establishing a maritime ban is off to a good start. Emperor Chongzhen thought and focused his attention on the second Liaodong War that was about to begin.
This morning, on the coastline about five miles east of Lushun, a dense number of boats suddenly appeared, slowly swarming towards the beach.
The ship ran aground, and the Ming army officers and soldiers on board jumped off the ship in a chaotic manner. They let the sea water wet their trousers but did not care. They rushed to the coast and gathered under their respective flags. If such a landing is blocked, it will definitely cause heavy casualties. However, there are no people here. Even if they are in chaos, as long as they have more time, the Ming army soldiers who have come ashore can finally complete the team.
Different from the smooth landing of these ordinary Ming troops, some large ships had the neighing of war horses. To get these war horses on board, there must be a dock and a landing plank as large as possible. Fortunately, the Ming army was familiar with this place and knew when and where to stop. But even so, it took a full two hours before a hundred people came down to ride.
Lu Xiangsheng looked at the long coastline, where his men were everywhere. On the sea, there were still many soldiers on the ships who had not disembarked, and they couldn't help but shake their heads slightly.
