Fang Jifan is an emotional person.
Could it be that because of the inkstone of several thousand taels of silver, he went to fight desperately with that pair of dogs from the Zhang family?
After all, they are still their relatives.
Fang Jifan raised his eyes.
That Wang Jinyuan was scared to pee, he had no idea that his young master, who was as broad as the sea, had forgiven the Zhang family brothers, and hurriedly said: "Master, the villain will die forever, and the villain has not watched over..."
Fang Jifan waved his hand and changed the subject: "How about Chen Zhuang?"
"Chen Zhuang?"
Seeing that the young master didn't pursue it further, Wang Jinyuan breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "Now Chenzhuang is in full swing, then Li Tian took the money and recruited tens of thousands of craftsmen, this guy... has an extraordinary ability to waste money, The craftsmen he employs are higher than the market price. I heard...the foundations at Chenzhuang are much deeper than ordinary buildings. They are all made of steel, and several steel workshops specialize in supplying them. Young master...the villain always I feel... I always feel that Li Tian is wasting our money!"
Looking at Wang Jinyuan with a pained face, Fang Jifan let out a groan. He was actually... very satisfied with Li Tian who wasted money!
As a qualified Party B, if you don't waste Party A's money, is that still human?
I, Fang Jifan, don't have much, but money is enough.
Seeing Fang Jifan's indifference, Wang Jinyuan bit the bullet and said, "There are a lot of rumors out there now. After all, there is such a big commotion in Chenzhuang..."
"What rumor?" Fang Jifan was a little curious about it.
Wang Jinyuan said cautiously: "Say yes... say yes... the young master is afraid that he wants to sell the house again, and he also said... Chenzhuang is so remote, so far away from the new city, and there is nothing nearby. It is a barren land, only a fool Go there and buy a house to live in."
Fang Jifan was overjoyed, and laughed loudly: "This group of bastards, this young master is so good for the country and the people, that he thinks that this young master only wants to sell a few buildings? A bunch of idiots, don't pay attention to them."
Wang Jinyuan seemed worried, and felt that some of those people's words were true. Chen Zhuang's place was indeed not a good location.
Of course, the only advantage is that the place is the fiefdom of the young master, that is to say...it does not belong to the Fang family in terms of private contract, but also belongs to the Fang family at a higher level.
Fang Jifan said again: "Don't pay attention to these bastards."
Wang Jinyuan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, there is another matter. It is a warning from the factory guard, and it is about Osman."
"Ottoman?" Fang Jifan was quite impressed with Suleiman of Ottoman.
This person...although he is young, but when he came to Beijing, Fang Jifan could feel that there was a kind of ambition in this person's belly that was hard to see for ordinary people.
This kind of ambition is rarely seen in ordinary people, because people's ambition often changes according to their own situation. If a person is hungry, his ambition may be to have enough food, and when a person is full, his ambition may be to eat. His ambition is to have a great family business.
And there is a kind of people, they are born with an ambition that surpasses ordinary people, such as Zhu Houzhao...Zhu Houzhao is the nobleman of the emperor, and to become a holy king, of course, he should have the ambition of the nobleman of the emperor.
But Zhu Houzhao is obviously more than that. His so-called dream of a sage is not following the rules. For a person like Zhu Houzhao, his dream has obviously surpassed his own identity.
So is Suleiman.
Therefore, Fang Jifan was quite wary of Suleiman.
Fang Jifan said intently: "Go on."
"The factory guards found that with the increasing exchanges between merchants, a group of merchants seemed to have been smuggling prohibited goods to Osman, including the formula for smelting steel, and some firearms, not only that, but also some Xishan medicine. Medicinal materials that are banned by the court."
Fang Jifan frowned, and said with a sneer: "This group of people who eat and crawl around, why, they can earn a lot of money by smuggling them, so why don't we in Xishan sell them ourselves?"
Wang Jinyuan: "..."
Fang Jifan's face softened a little: "You continue talking."
"The crux of the problem is that the price of these smuggling is very reasonable, and these private traders do not have a big mouth."
Fang Jifan's face became more and more ugly.
"What do they mean?"
"I heard that Suleiman has recruited a large number of Confucian scholars in Ottoman since he dominated Confucianism, and these Confucian scholars have attached themselves to Suleiman one after another. Osman even called himself Daqin. They compiled four books and five classics. Collected various Confucian books, set up a cabinet, established the Imperial Academy and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and set up six ministries. They reorganized the army and used the governor to control the place. This Suleiman acted decisively, and even Osman and others, one after another Learn Chinese and Confucianism. Some Confucian scholars even sneaked back to the pass, spreading the benefits of Ottoman everywhere, claiming that Suleiman is a holy king like Song Renzong."
Fang Jifan couldn't help but sneered and said, "What kind of sage is Song Renzong?"
"But scholars like Song Renzong." Wang Jinyuan said: "Because of this, many Confucian scholars defected to Ottoman, and some people hoped to work for Ottoman. Do you still remember the private businessmen who colluded with Japanese pirates? These private businessmen used to Most of them are under the protection of high-ranking families, and the current situation is the same. Some merchants have a lot to do with local gentry, so...the factory guards found out that these contraband were smuggled through Ottoman, and they wanted to come and These scholars are related."
Faced with such a conclusion, Fang Jifan had nothing to say.
"The factory guards want to ask the young master if he should search and arrest him immediately and arrest him."
"Take people?" Fang Jifan shook his head: "Don't do anything, just investigate secretly. If you take people with great fanfare, it will inevitably make people uneasy. After all, such people are a minority. Wait for me to deal with them slowly."
Wang Jinyuan couldn't help but said: "Actually, the villain doesn't know what these people think..."
Fang Jifan waved his hand and said: "This matter is naturally related to the Confucian scholars who colluded with Ottoman. These people have lost power in my Ming Dynasty, so I am unwilling..."
Fang Jifan walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, and then said: "Actually, I can't even imagine what they think."
but……
Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes: "Since that's the case, release the news to the outside world, saying that... this Chenzhuang is related to the emperor, in order to raise military expenses for the new army, and... Chenzhuang is indeed going to sell the house, what's the price, hehe ...but not cheap."
Wang Jinyuan looked at Fang Jifan with puzzlement on his face: "Master, this..."
Fang Jifan smiled confidently and said: "You just release the news, it depends on whether they will take the bait."
Wang Jinyuan nodded: "Yes."
………
As soon as the news from Xishan came out.
Sure enough, most people in the market are like that.
The Fang family is going to sell their house again.
It is said...the price is still sky-high.
It is to raise military expenses for the new army.
Many people were talking about it, most of them couldn't help shaking their heads, Chenzhuang...it's too remote, no amount of money is worth it. Zhen Guogong is crazy about money.
A caravan is ready to set off. Their purpose is to go all the way west, and after arriving at Yumen Pass to rest, they will cross the border and head to Ottoman.
There are a lot of caravans going to Ottoman. On the one hand, Ottoman is considered wealthy, and because Ottoman has crossed three continents, he has controlled the passage leading to Kunlun Continent, Franji and even southward to Tianzhu.
Countless commodities arrived there, either sold on the spot, or continued to be sold in towns along the Mediterranean Sea to the Mediterranean Sea, or they could go south to Tianzhu.
The cost of the land route is high, but the treasures of Daming, as long as they go to the Mediterranean Sea or Tianzhu, they are often rare goods, and the profits are not small.
What's more, the journey from Daming to Ottoman is relatively safe. Even in Ottoman, you can communicate with the locals simply in Chinese. In Ottoman, there are a large number of Confucian scholars who can provide them with guides. This also leads to, People are willing to take this business route.
Some Confucian scholars went to Ottoman, and were highly valued by the Ottoman emperor. Some even became officials of the frontier. Their relatives, of course, went to seek refuge one after another. And if these people have fellow villagers to organize caravans, they will naturally get a lot of convenience.
The Silk Road on land has become the target of many commercial firms.
In a commercial firm, the caravan that is about to depart has already made preparations. At this moment, the young owner of the firm sewed a densely packed silk cloth with many memorials on it, and then, the mighty The caravan embarked on a journey with countless news from Beijing.
It will take several months for the caravan to reach Yumen Pass.
But once they left the Yumen Pass, the person who carried the news left the caravan, rode fast horses, and galloped all the way. They were familiar with every oasis in the desert, and in each oasis, there was a special response People, once crossing the desert, can reach the Ottoman capital all the way.
Today, the most magnificent building in the Ottoman capital is the newly built Confucian Temple.
This huge building has an endless stream of people arriving here every day to salute the most holy teachers.
The nobles have generally begun to take pride in imitating the accent of the Ming capital.
As a result, Chinese began to spread slowly to ordinary people.
After suppressing a lot of resistance, Suleiman killed all those who resisted, so that no one dared to express opposition in Ottoman territory. The Ottoman Guards were firmly controlled by the emperor. inside.
Locally, the governor began to replace Kaxia, and the nobles, in fear, studied the Four Books and Five Classics in order to show their loyalty.
At this time... Four months ago, the young master who was still in the capital had been invited to the Ottoman court.
Suleiman met him in person at Mingde Hall.
The young master bowed down and made a big gift.
Suleiman put down the "Spring and Autumn" in his hand, and raised his eyelids.
