Domineering Daming

Wang Lian stretched out his head, and said in a low voice, "That's...that man from Shanyou established it, and the chief shopkeeper is Fan Jinxiong?"

"That's right!" Wei Liangqing looked at Wang Lian, smiled more and said: "I have said so much, should Mr. Wang express it?"

Wang Lian was startled, and immediately took out a few bank notes from his pocket and handed them over, and said more eagerly: "Please give me some pointers from Shopkeeper Wei."

Wei Liangqing took it over and squinted to see that it was a total of 1 taels. He put it in his arms and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, but the method is actually simple. Just cooperate with the eldest son and build a chamber of commerce. The people from Shanyou are called Huijin merchants Okay, you can call Huimin Chamber of Commerce..."

Wang Lian's expression was shocked, and he stuffed another stack of banknotes, and said, "I hope shopkeeper Wei will have more good words."

"Good talk, good talk."

Wei Liangqing took the bank note and saw that it was 1 taels again, and he was overjoyed.I sighed in my heart, even if the salt merchants are rich, these tea merchants are not bad.

Seeing Wei Liangqing's full promise, Wang Lian was also happy, raised his glass and said, "Treasurer Wei, let me toast again."

Wei Liangqing held the wine glass and said in a calm manner: "Okay, drink!"

After another half hour, Wang Lian got up to leave when he was sure that he couldn't get anything out.

The waiter sent Wang Lian out. Wei Liangqing, who was too drunk to open his eyes, stood up with a shake of his head, took a deep breath, and muttered: "This Wang Lian is really good at drinking. down."

After his words fell, Fu Tao came out with a smile and said, "Whoever falls can't make Shopkeeper Wei fall."

I don't know if it's because he has done too many things or because Zhu Xu sat on the dragon chair. Fu Tao is becoming more and more mature, and his eyes are full of confidence.

Fu Tao usually sits in this Huitong Commercial Bank and is the closest to Wei Liangqing. Wei Liangqing also didn't see him, took out the [-] taels of silver note from his arms, and said with a smile: "My lord, this Mr. Wang is better than the one in Nanjing last time." Participating in politics is rich."

What Wei Liangqing said was that the last time a Nanjing politician participated in politics, he also approached him for the matter of salt administration.For this kind of thing, Wei Liangqing can be said to be very familiar with it. The pattern is: some politeness, then ask for benefits, half drunk, and give advice-cooperate with Mr. Fu to establish a chamber of commerce.

If a provincial councilor can come forward, then the background behind him must be strong enough, maybe it is the local chief secretary's yamen.With the cooperation of these local snakes, their business is even more powerful.What's more, for the expansion of their various businesses, especially Huitong Commercial Bank, which Zhu Xu cares most about, the benefits are unimaginable!

According to Wei Liangqing's statistics, for the salt policy alone, partners from all over the country have deposited no less than 500 million taels of cash in Huitong Commercial Bank!

This is just the beginning, as the days go by and the cooperation deepens, more and more money will come in.

Wei Liangqing may not understand the deeper aspects, but under the influence of Zhu Xu and Fu Changzong, Fu Tao vaguely understands that Zhu Xu has long been unable to tolerate local corruption and dereliction of duty. It collapsed.

At that time, the silver in the commercial bank will be theirs, the chambers of commerce in various places will be theirs, and the salt government and tea government will all be theirs!

Fu Tao looked at the banknote in Wei Liangqing's hand, smiled and said, "The shopkeeper Wei can buy a house outside and arrange some furniture."

Wei Liangqing was taken aback, he had a house, and recently he had several concubines, why did he buy a house?

Fu Tao kept secret: "How long has it been since the shopkeeper Wei went to the prison?"

Wei Liangqing's complexion changed slightly, and he immediately said happily: "Young Master, Your Majesty...are you going to let my uncle go?"

Fu Tao smiled and nodded.

Wei Liangqing hurriedly knelt down, facing the direction of the palace, and said loudly: "Wei Liangqing thanked the emperor, long live my emperor!"

After Wei Liangqing finished these, he stood up and said to Fu Tao: "I also hope that Mr. Fu will be transferred to the emperor. Wei Liangqing will thank the emperor for his kindness, and will do his best for the emperor until he dies!"

Fu Tao smiled and said: "Well, by the way, you have met Fan Yongdou, have you verified it?"

Wei Liangqing restrained his emotions, looked serious, and said: "My lord, I found out that the Fan family does have a horse farm, but the scale is not large, but they are all good horses."

Fu Tao looked at him and said: "I have blocked him twice, next time you come, bring me to see me."

Wei Liangqing said: "Okay, I will write it down."

Chapter 217 All Rich People

Fu Tao is very busy.

Before finishing dealing with the salt merchants, the tea merchants came again.

The only thing that makes him happy is that there are more and more money.For these two things alone, the deposit to enter Huitong Commercial Bank will exceed ten million taels!

Tea merchants and salt merchants from all over the world, as long as they are relatively large, lined up to go to Beijing to meet this mysterious, cousin of the current emperor's younger brother, the eldest son of the servant of the household department!

After five or six days in a row, Fu Tao couldn't bear it anymore.

Inside Huitong Commercial Bank, Zhou Jianyu, He Yunshan, and Wei Liangqing were all there, and each of them was full of energy, with red eyes.

They are all living a good life. Although they are not court officials, they feel more powerful than court officials.

Zhou Jianyu is very ambitious at the moment. He not only takes the lead in water transport, but now he is also paying attention to sea transport. There are more and more ships and business is getting bigger and bigger.Just one canal north and south, he connected hundreds of large and small chambers of commerce.

He looked at Fu Tao who was sitting in the middle and finally took a breath, glanced at the other two, and said, "My lord, Haiyun, when does the emperor plan to restart?"

Fu Tao pondered for a while, but there was nothing to hide, and said: "The Ministry of War is rectifying the coastal guards, and Mr. Yuan in Penglai is also rectifying the navy. It is estimated that they will go south in two months at most. By sea, at the end of the year at the latest."

Zhou Jianyu was overjoyed and said, "That's good. When Mr. Fu has the approval documents for sea transportation, I dare not say more. One year of water transportation can at least earn the emperor 800 million taels of silver!"

Fu Tao nodded with a smile, and said: "The last time I entered the palace, the emperor praised the ability of shopkeeper Zhou very much. Next year, when the yuan is changed, at least one of the hereditary Dongchang hundred households will be given to you."

Jin Yiwei handed over the imperial prison to Dongchang, and the manpower on the surface, except for the various institutions in the palace, seemed to outsiders to be completely abolished.

Zhou Jianyu was shocked, this was an unexpected favor from the emperor, he hurriedly knelt down towards the palace: "The grass people thank the emperor for his kindness."

Fu Tao waved his hands, and despite the tiredness on his face, he still smiled and said, "I will take you to thank you in the next year."

He Yunshan and Wei Liangqing felt itchy when they heard the word "you", wondering what kind of reward the emperor would give them.

Fu Tao looked at the two of them and said, "How much have you donated to the imperial court this time?"

The three of them were startled, feeling regret in their hearts, how could they have forgotten that this was an opportunity to show their loyalty to the emperor.

He Yunshan is the most wealthy, and said calmly: "My lord, the He family is raising funds and plans to donate 10 taels. At present, the household department has received a total of 3 taels."

Fu Tao smiled and shook his head, and said: "You belong to you, the Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Chamber of Commerce, and public and private are separated. In this way, after you go back, you will donate to the imperial court in the name of the major chambers of commerce... Well, 50 taels, no more and no less .”

After Fu Tao finished speaking, he smiled mysteriously: "If you donate a lot, the emperor will give you benefits."

The three of them were taken aback for a moment, then came to understand immediately, nodded happily and said: "Don't worry, Eldest Young Master, we will take care of it when we get back."

The four of them were talking, when a waiter knocked on the door, leaning against the door and said: "Young Master, Fan Jinxiong is here."

Fu Tao rubbed his face and smiled at the three of them: "After the three of you go back, please contact me to see if you can donate a little more. It's all other people's money. On the basis of not wasting favors, how much can you squeeze out? How many."

The three of them stood up, with smirks flashing on their faces, and they said, "Don't worry, Eldest Young Master, we will save everything."

Fu Tao is satisfied with all three of them. He is knowledgeable and interested, and especially has a strong desire to make money, so his abilities are also outstanding.

He sent the three of them to the door openly and squarely. There were already four people standing in the lobby. Fu Tao took a look, nodded slightly, and talked to Wei Liangqing and the three of them at the door before turning around.

It was Fan Jinxiong who led Sun Yongzheng and Li Hanshan, and a young man named Fan Yongdou.
