The Road to the Imperial Examinations of Farmers in Ancient Times

Chapter 173 The beginning of everything is difficult

With the capital as the center, news spread in all directions.

Businessmen from other places quickly read this newspaper and knew that the imperial court had established a new commercial department.The commercial department, at first glance, is the department that manages their business affairs, and this commercial department is independent of the six departments. It is approved by the emperor and Li Liuyuan is in charge.

Merchants from chambers of commerce from all over the place gathered together, and they all speculated whether the imperial court would make any big moves, and it was related to their merchants.

If there were people who underestimated Li Liuyuan because of his young age before, after the case of the Ministry of Household Affairs, now that everyone mentioned Li Liuyuan, they would no longer dare to underestimate him because of his young age.There are lessons learned from the past. Anyone who underestimated Li Liuyuan, without exception, all fell into a big somersault in the end.

So you can't just look at Li Liuyuan's young age and think that Li Liuyuan is incompetent. They are far inferior to others at Li Liuyuan's age, so why should they look down on him!Li Liuyuan has only been an official in the court for two years, and he has been promoted twice. Now he is still a celebrity in front of the emperor. These people have never seen the emperor for most of their lives.

People are more popular than others, so don't compare them!

There are several newspapers on the table of the Chamber of Commerce, all of which are from the capital, and everyone present has read them.

However, judging from the articles in the newspaper, a big boss in the chamber of commerce boldly analyzed, "You can see that the newspaper talked about the development of commerce, which is also good...and here, when it comes to us businessmen, it is not just blindly The criticism of us businessmen is not good..."

If his guess is correct, Chaotang is going to pay more attention to business, and merchants like them.

In the past, when scholars mentioned their businessmen, they would call them treacherous and treacherous. How could scholars write articles praising them for being honest in business and trustworthy for businessmen? There are a lot of paragraphs in this article that are very important to them businessmen. Complimentary words.

Among their merchants, there must be some people who are treacherous and dishonest, just a few grains of mouse droppings ruined a good pot of porridge, and those few people with bad business methods ruined the reputation of all their merchants!

The big man guessed, "This may be a good thing for us businessmen."

Others present nodded and echoed, "If that's the case, that would be the best."

"Let's send people to the capital to find out the news first, and always pay attention to the news from the capital. If there is anything, we can deal with it as soon as possible." They only saw the news of the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce now, and they are not sure about the future. What adults are going to do.

However, based on what Master Li had done in the past, they still believed in Master Li's character and conduct, and felt that Master Li was different from the officials they knew before.

"If you know someone in the capital, write a letter and ask."

Their merchants have a wide range of contacts, and there are many sources of information. Someone must have met someone in the capital. Someone nodded and said, "I'll go back and write a letter to the capital to ask."

"Yes, I will also write a letter to ask when I go back."

After the meeting of the merchants here, those who knew people in the capital wrote letters when they went back, and sent people to send them to Shicheng quickly.

For a time, businessmen from all over the world were busy.

The office of the Ministry of Commerce has approved it, and today Li Wen came with someone to look at the place.

Now the news of the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce has been sent out, but they don't even have a formal office space, so now he has to sort out the office space quickly and put the staff in place as soon as possible, so as to continue to carry out Face to face with work matters.They just have a title now and nothing

The major government offices in the capital are all on the side of Changchun Street, and the offices of the six ministries are all on the same street.The office of the Ministry of Commerce is two streets away from the office of the Sixth Department, and it is at the end of the third street after turning a corner.

"Master Li, this is the place."

At this time, they were standing in front of a yard with a dilapidated gate, and there was not even a sign at the gate.Originally in a good mood, Li Wen's face darkened when he saw the gate of this courtyard.He has been working here for so long, and this is the first time he has come here, so he really doesn't know that there is such a dilapidated courtyard here on Changchun Street. It's really hard for these people to find such a place for him!

From this point of view, it is clear that some people deliberately tripped him up.

Taking a deep breath, Li Wen said silently in his heart: I'm not angry!If he gets angry, he loses!

Can't be angry, can't be angry...

"Come on, let's go in and have a look." Li Wen motioned for someone to open the door.

When planning to set up this commercial department, Li Wen thought about the problems he might encounter again, so he was already mentally prepared.The most difficult step has already been taken, so there is no need to be afraid of the latter. Anyway, even if these people trip him up, they can't stop him.

"Yes, my lord." The little official who brought him over went to open the gate of the yard.

The door that was pushed open hung crookedly on one side, as if it might fall down at any time.When Li Wen walked in, he was worried that the door would fall and hit him, and the door would have to be replaced by then.

Shen Zijing and Su Yuan went in together behind Li Wen, just in time to take a look at where they were going to do things in the future.

The yard was overgrown with weeds and was deserted, and no one had come to this place for an unknown period of time.

"Where was this courtyard before?" Li Wen didn't know every place in the capital so well, so he didn't know much about this place either.

"This, the small ones are not very clear."

The little official who followed was just a guide, he didn't know much about these things, and he was worried that if he offended the adults, he would be punished.

Li Wen just nodded and didn't embarrass others, well, he will know when he asks himself later.Looking around this place, he naturally felt that this place was not good, not to mention it looked dilapidated, and the place was not big.

At this time, he couldn't go to the emperor to complain. He despised the bad place, so he asked the emperor for a better place.Those people dared to do this only after seeing this point. They built such a poor yard for him, there must be someone hiding behind and waiting to see his jokes!

If you want to see Xiaoye's jokes, I won't let you!Li Wen thought bitterly in his heart, holding a breath in his heart, he must set up the commercial department!

You all wait for me!I will settle this account with you later!

Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge! ... It shouldn't be used for ten years, but it will be fine in three to five years, hum!Li Wen never denied that he was a vengeful person. Those who are now thinking of ways to punish him hope that they will be mentally prepared for him to take revenge back.

All beginnings are hard!

Open this head, and everything behind will be smooth.

The door of the wing room opened, a burst of smoke and dust flew up, and several people were choked, "Ahem..."

The light inside is very dim. Looking in from the outside, there are many spider webs inside. Li Wen said that this place is similar to the coiled silk holes of the spider spirits in Journey to the West. At this moment, he really I don't have the desire to go in and take a look, and I don't even want to step in. "Well, I don't need to go in and take a look when I turn around. Let's find someone to clean up when the time comes."

Indeed, Shen Zijing nodded.

"Okay, let's go." Knowing that there is such a place, it is enough to find someone to repair it tomorrow. What needs to be replaced, what needs to be repaired, as long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a big problem.

At least they have a place now, although it looks a bit rotten, but it can be used after repairing.

After seeing the place, at least they felt a little bit relieved.

After walking around, they knew such a place, and they came out from it.

Li Wen went to the Ministry of Industry to find important people from the Ministry of Industry to repair the office buildings. All repairs related to the houses of government offices must be reported to the Ministry of Industry, and then the Ministry of Industry will send people to come. Repair the house.

However, according to the normal procedures, it will definitely not be approved within ten days and half a month. If someone deliberately gets stuck, it may not be approved until next year.He couldn't delay this time now, so he went directly to the Ministry of Industry.

There is another quickest way, which is to ask someone to do it out of his own pocket.

However, it is impossible for him to hire someone to get this money out of his own pocket. If so, he would have to pay it back even if he was an official.When others become officials, they put a lot of money into their own pockets, but when he becomes an official, he takes money out of his own pocket?Then no one really wants to be an official. Li Wen is really not as cute as a fool.

Things are not done this way, and there must be principles that should be there, so he will never pay for this money himself.

When the officials of the Ministry of Industry saw Li Liuyuan coming to the door, they said they were looking for their Lord Shangshu, but they dared not stop him and invited him in.However, Li Wen stood inside for half an hour before he saw Mr. Jia, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who seemed to have hurried over from somewhere, and he still pretended to be the same thing.

Anyone who can sit in the position of Shangshu is not an old fox.

Li Wen pouted in his heart, and saluted respectfully on his face, "I have seen Master Jia."

"Hey, Li Liuyuan is here. Coincidentally, today I heard Xishao calling from the tree in front of the door. Li Liuyuan, you have come to our Ministry of Industry." Minister Jia of the Ministry of Industry is a thin old man, With a smile on his face, Li Wen was invited to sit down and served tea.

Li Liuyuan just got rid of most of the officials in the household department. He is a fierce man. Now the people in the six departments don't want to face Li Liuyuan as an enemy for the time being.

Of course, it's different to make a stumbling block behind the scenes.

Some people thought they did it without anyone noticing, huh...
