.,

Fang Jifan was eager to meet many gentry, and after talking with them rationally, he discovered that the world is full of individuals who betrayed the class.

The gentry of Ming Dynasty really understand righteousness.

It seems that it is imperative to select officials as officials.

He ordered people to send these 'public opinions' to Ouyang Zhi.

...

Ministry of officials.

Ouyang Zhi looked at the densely packed 'people's sentiments'.

Then, he took a deep breath.

After a long silence, his eyes turned slightly red.

The official who was sorting out the official documents for Ouyang Zhi glanced at him: "Ouyang Butang, what... what's wrong?"

Ouyang Zhi took a breath and wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

Then sit down seriously.

This official was brought from Baoding by him, and he trusted him the most. He was Ouyang Zhi's confidant.

Ouyang Zhi seemed to think about it, and then said: "These my teacher sent... you can take a look."

The official nodded, picked up these 'people's sentiments' and looked at them one by one.

Then, the official's expression became weird, and he glanced at Ouyang Zhi cautiously.

Ouyang Zhi said: "What do you want to say?"

"This... Excuse me, students, these things sent by the Duke of Qi... Hey..." The official sighed again: "Student, to be honest, Duke Qi's reputation is a bit domineering. He invited those gentry, and those gentry were hand-picked." They have no power to restrain chickens. Even though the gentry are usually in the countryside, they are people who stomp their feet and the ground trembles, but in front of the Duke of Qi, what are they? The Duke of Qi said that he chose officials as officials Well, how dare they say a bad word, even if Duke Qi says they like men, don't they have to obediently nod and say yes?"

The official looked up at Ouyang Zhi cautiously again, but Ouyang Zhi still had no expression on his face.

But... the officials are used to it.

Ouyang Butang is like this.

After a pause, he continued: "So the students think that these 'people's sentiments' are of no help to Ouyang Butang. Although Duke Qi has bothered, it's a pity..."

just a long time...

Ouyang Zhi suddenly said, "You don't understand."

The official was stunned, looked at Ouyang Zhi with puzzled eyes, and said involuntarily: "I also ask Ouyang Butang to enlighten me."

Ouyang Zhi slowly closed his eyes, then opened them, looked at the piles of people's sentiments, with deep eyes, and said: "This is your opinion, but to me, the teacher's way of doing this, these people's sentiments, are not It was given to me by my mentor."

"Isn't it for you?" The official looked suspicious, even more puzzled.

"This is for others to see." After a brief silence, Ouyang Zhi said sadly: "For the outside world, this is the teacher telling the world, look, his protégé Ouyang Zhi has become the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and he is struggling to select officials for Official, I want to dig out the roots of many gentry and scholars, all of which are instructed by my teacher, and I Ouyang Zhi, I, Ouyang Zhi, just respect the order of my teacher, I was just confused for a while, and it is understandable, but my teacher is There is no pardon."

The official's expression suddenly changed, he was shocked, and at the same time he understood something.

"Students understand, Ouyang Butang means... Qi Guogong's move is to share the pressure of Ouyang Butang. Before that, Ouyang Butang was the target of public criticism, but now, the hatred of countless people has turned to Qi Guogong's head Come on. He seems to be messing around by doing this, but he is actually protecting Ouyang Butang?"

Having said that, the official could not help but take a deep breath in his heart.

Look at Ouyang Butang, why he can soar into the sky, apart from his own real skills, it is also because he has such a mentor.

Uh, someone else's mentor...

Ouyang Zhi nodded slowly and said: "My teacher... hey...he treats me like his own son. As a disciple, even though I am a heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, I still have to be protected by him. Come... what a shame."

His eyes were red again.

Then he gritted his teeth and said: "Master is so fanatical, I, as a disciple, already understand his thoughts. Now... my ineffective disciple, the only thing I can do is to take the post of Minister of the Ministry of Officials and get things done. Don't embarrass your teacher, Secretary Lu, bring the unfinished charter, I want to read it again, consider it carefully, and deliberate over it."

Lu Sili replied with a serious face: "Yes."

At this moment, Ouyang Zhi has turned grief into strength.

He was ashamed of his teacher's good intentions.

………………

Malacca Keppel Harbor.

The country of Malacca was established a hundred years ago. It occupies a small area and belongs to a peninsula. The north is almost surrounded by the country of Johor.

The Keppel Seaport happens to be at the southernmost tip of the Malacca peninsula. This small seaport was borrowed by the Ming Dynasty earlier, and a seaport was built here. A large number of Ming ships had to cross the Strait of Malacca. Often stops here.

Not only that, with the rise of the Siyang Trading Company, merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty would often come here, bringing some treasures from the Ming Dynasty.

Many of Daming's products are the best in the world.

Tea, silk, porcelain, and even the most fashionable cotton textiles, and now even glasses.

Merchant ships from various countries will also arrive here to trade with the Siyang Trading Company, and then transport these goods back to China.

Under Daming's management, Keppel Port is thriving.

In the morning, this place was just a fishing village before, but now it is overcrowded. Ming-style buildings have sprung up one by one, and countless merchants are here.

The Western countries, the Tianzhu countries, and the merchants of Dashi, during the shuttle period, a large number of ships came in and out every day, and the grand occasion was unprecedented.

This place is a thoroughfare, the geographical location is excellent, and because it is related to the supplies of Daming's ships sailing to the West, there are even hundreds of specialized soldiers to protect them. Keep it safe.

The Portuguese also came occasionally, although relations with each other were strained.

But when it comes to business, they will never dare to make mistakes here. Now the two sides are at war, but despite the friction between each other, Ming's fleet did not attack the Portuguese settlements in Luzon and Java. The two sides seem to have a tacit understanding and carefully maintain the tacit relationship.

As early as a few days ago, a huge fleet of Siyang Trading Company arrived here.

When Liu Wenshan and Liu Jin got off the boat, they were immediately warmly welcomed by the consolation envoy of Keppel Harbor in Malacca.

Liu Wenshan and others got off the boat, and then traveled a hundred miles northward to meet the king of Malacca.

Although the King of Malacca was enthusiastic, he also complained about many things.

However, Liu Wenshan didn't care, and returned to Keppel Port, where he lived in the Houya House in Xuanwei Mansion.

Here, a temporary camp was set up, inside it was protected by spies from the Siyang Trading Company, and outside it was hundreds of officers and soldiers of Ming Dynasty stationed in Keppel Port.

Under this heavy protection, a large map was hung on the wall.

At this time, Liu Wenshan was staring at the map on the wall with his hands behind his back and his head raised.

He said indifferently: "The king of Malacca has repeatedly complained about the continuous disputes between the Han people in Keppel Harbor and the natives in Malacca. Liu Jin, what do you think?"

Liu Jinben was sitting on the side holding a teacup, and when Liu Wenshan asked him, he put down the teacup, thought about it carefully, and said: "I think back then, when Francois came here in such a fierce manner, all the Western countries were trembling and trembling. , the wind is raging, I heard that my Ming Dynasty is going to sail to the west, and I really want to bring my Daming fleet to their homes. But now, the expansion momentum of the Franji people has been suppressed, and they began to think that we are here to take root. I covet our port, and I am afraid that a large number of Han merchants are pouring in here. Father, in the eyes of my son, these are all ungrateful white-eyed wolves, why are you polite to them."

Liu Wenshan looked at Liu Jin, but smiled, and said: "This is human nature, even brothers, there are still unclear accounts, let alone here? It is precisely because of this that we have important burdens. The mission is to spread the precious money. Since then, Western countries have no choice but to become vassals. Military conquest is hard to convince people, and it will not last long. Only economic control is the most important thing. important."

Liu Wenshan didn't continue talking.

He was silent for a moment, then raised his head and continued to look at the map: "You are the big shopkeeper of Siyang Commercial Bank. If it were you, what are you going to do here?"

Liu Jin: "..."

Seeing that Liu Jin didn't answer, Liu Wenshan said with a smile: "You need to learn this well. This is a real way of managing the world. If you learn it, Siyang Commercial Bank will grow stronger in the future."

Liu Jin said solemnly: "Yes, my son has been reading your books recently, and he has already mastered a little bit, but..."

"Then don't worry, learn slowly." Liu Wenshan sat down, sipped his tea, and said with an easy-going expression, "The next step is to sell the goods we brought in large quantities, such as silk, tea, cotton, Porcelain, everything that can be sold, is sold, not only that, we have to make a rule, since we want to do business with us, of course we have to agree on the currency, the currency of each country is different, I think the Siyang Trading Company needs to contact each country. Second, what currency is used here, they have the final say on everything.”

"They have the final say?" Liu Jin looked surprised: "This...this...father...isn't this taking advantage of them?"

In the past, real money was used for transactions here. Now if the initiative is handed over to other countries, wouldn't it be...

It's unreasonable, Liu Jin doesn't understand...

Liu Wenshan said with a smile: "If you want to take it first, you have to give it first. In fact, economics is very simple. Do you know why the tulip bubble is successful?"

Liu Jin: "..."

Well, he admits, he's not very good at learning.

Liu Wenshan said: "Can't answer?"

Liu Jin said: "I also ask my father to tell me."

Liu Wenshan suddenly opened his eyes and said, "Greed! All economic problems stem from this. People's hearts are the most greedy. If you can take advantage of this, you will be everywhere."

This time, Liu Jin remembered.

Only then did Liu Wenshan calmly say: "This time, it's the same!"
