Chapter 62 The Thoughts on the List

Chapter 62 The Thoughts on the List

After Zhang Jian left the academy, he went to the government office in a sedan chair and met Chen Fuzun.

The atmosphere between the two of them was very harmonious. Chen Fuzun didn't seem to know that Zhang Xianzun went to Ganquan Academy first, and Zhang Xianzun didn't seem to have been to Ganquan Academy. After chatting in the Fuya's study for half an hour, Zhang Xianzun got up and left.

Those who didn't know, thought that these two people knew each other in advance, and they were close friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

After Zhang Xianzun left the government office, he returned to the county office and began to take over the errands of the Jiangdu county office.

Now, the Jiangdu County Government is cleaning up the confiscated properties of grain merchants, and temporarily replacing the role of grain merchants. The government will step in and sell grain at market prices in various grain stores in Jiangdu, so as to ensure the stability of Jiangdu City.

But the government can't do business, because the referee can't leave the game.

Therefore, the grain business of the Jiangdu county government is only temporary, and another group of people need to come to fill the vacant grain market in Jiangdu Prefecture and take over the Jiangdu market.

Or rather, share the cake.

Jiangdu Prefecture is a rich place. Although there is only one prefecture, it can be regarded as a piece of fat. More importantly, although the hometown of Jiangdu grain merchants such as Ma Yuanwai is in Jiangdu, their radiating range is in the entire Gyeonggi. Anyone who takes this vacancy can live a few fat years.

In fact, just a few days after the Ma family waited for the grain merchants to fall down, grain merchants from other places began to enter Jiangdu City, and some smarter ones were already opening shops to sell grain.

However, the grain shops in the city that were confiscated by the government have natural location advantages. These foreign grain merchants flocked to Jiangdu, and it was difficult to eat up Jiangdu's grain market in a short while.

After the new Zhang Xianzun arrived in Renjiangdu, he first walked around Jiangdu City, and then walked through all the grain shops in Jiangdu City that had been confiscated and sealed by the grain store. After just three days, he got out He made a list and sent it to Jiangdu government office.

In the study room of Jiangdu government office, Zhang Jian and Zhang Xianzun handed over the list in his hand, then looked at Chen Fuzun, bowed his head slightly and said: "Fu Zun, the grain merchants in Jiangdu have confiscated property and shops, and the proceeds from the confiscation are huge." Part of it was handed over to the household department, but the household department of these grain shops could not take it away, and there was no way to sell it in a short time. After discussing with several officials from the household department who came to Jiangdu to search the house, they agreed to transfer the grain. The store will stay in Jiangdu, and it will be handled by our Jiangdu government."

Hearing Zhang Jian's words, Chen Fuzun raised his head and glanced at the young county lord, sneering inwardly.

At the beginning, the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs had a very tough attitude, and they must confiscate all the properties of Jiangdu grain merchants into the national treasury, including the real estate, land and shops of these grain merchants. result.

Jiangdu is too close to the capital, and it is not a place that cannot be touched by the imperial power, so Chen Fuzun can't force it with the people from the household department, so he can only hold his nose and bear it.

And how long has this Zhang Xianzun only arrived in Jiangdu?

With a few words, he took over the grain merchant's grain shop from the household department!
After Zhang Jian finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and continued: "Master Fu, most of the large grain merchants in Jiangdu have been confiscated by the imperial court, and our county government is responsible for the grain sales in the city, but in this way After all, it is not a solution. What I mean is that the government will select a group of voluntary merchants, and our Jiangdu government will issue a license to allow them to sell grain in Jiangdu, and they can rent or sell the grain shops of the original Jiangdu grain merchants. Let them operate in Jiangdu."

Speaking of this, County Magistrate Zhang paused, and continued: "You have been in Jiangdu for a long time, and you have also experienced the price increase of the grain merchants' alliance not long ago. If the government comes forward to attract investment, you can restrict these newcomers to Jiangdu. Grain merchants, to prevent them from raising prices again and driving up grain prices."

Chen Fuzun did not speak, but quietly listened to Zhang Jian finish his plan. After Zhang Xianzun finished his opinion, Chen Yu took the list from him. After roughly reading it, he looked up. Looking at Zhang Jian, there was a slight smile on his face: "The magistrate Zhang started working for the people of Jiangdu as soon as he arrived in Jiangdu. This is naturally a good thing, but since the Ministry of Households handed over the grain shops of these grain merchants to our Jiangdu government , should these shops be allocated by the government?"

"It's natural."

Zhang Jian seemed to have expected Chen Fuzun's words, and he said with a smile: "Fu Zun, you are the chief constitution of our Jiangdu, and the affairs of Jiangdu will naturally be arranged by Fu Zun. The purpose of coming to see Fu Zun today is to ask Fu Zun Zun reported this matter, and the list of grain merchants drawn up is just a suggestion for Fu Zun, if Fu Zun does not accept it, the government will do this, and our county government will not ask about this matter any more."

At this point, County Magistrate Zhang paused, and continued: "The government office can send people to take over the shopfronts of those grain merchants right now. The subordinate officials have just arrived in Jiangdu, and the county government offices can have fewer things to do, and the subordinate officials can also relax. "

Seeing that Zhang Jian was so easy to talk, Chen Fuzun was a little surprised. He didn't speak immediately, but stretched out his hand to open the "Investment List" that Zhang Jian handed over. After a quick glance, he felt that some of the names were familiar.

But... He couldn't remember for a while.

With a cautious mind, Chen Fuzun stacked up the list and put it on his desktop, then looked up at Zhang Jian, and said slowly: "This Jiangdu City is under the jurisdiction of the county government. The county government can't leave it to the mansion to deal with the matter, so let me put your list here first, and I will consider it for two days before giving an answer to County Magistrate Zhang."

Zhang Jian immediately lowered her head and said, "Your officer obeys."

"Don't disturb Fu Zun's work, the next official will leave."

Zhang Jian was about to bow and leave immediately.

Chen Yu glanced at the young man, and then said lightly: "The magistrate Zhang just arrived in Jiangdu. Originally, I shouldn't give you any errands, but seeing that the county examination is about to start in a few months, your county government office To do a good job in the county test, our government office will also do a good job in the government test."

A smile appeared on Chen Yu's face.

"Magistrate Zhang is the first parent officer, so he may not be very clear. If there are one or two more Jinshi in Jiangdu, you and I will be considered meritorious for enlightenment, not to mention whether it will be recorded in the civil examination book of the Ministry of Officials. It is also a good thing to have a few more talents for the country.”

Zhang Jian immediately nodded and said: "The lord has ordered, and the next official has recorded it."

"It's the first time for a subordinate official to take up the post. If there is anything you don't understand, you have to ask the Fu Zun for advice."

"Good to say."

Chen Fuzun smiled slightly: "We are officials in the same family, we just support each other."

After the two of them finished talking, County Magistrate Zhang took his leave and left. Fuzun Chen took Zhang Jian to the door of the study in person. After County Magistrate Zhang left, Chen Yu returned to his seat, silently took out the list and looked at it again. over again.

On this list, there are about seven or eight names of grain merchants.

Originally, this kind of thing is nothing unusual, but on this list, there are two people surnamed Yang.

Chen Fuzun stared at the list for a long time, then reached out and knocked on the table, and said in a deep voice, "Old Du."

At the door of the study, Chen Yu's servant hurried in and bowed his head respectfully to Chen Yu: "Master, please order."

"Make a copy of this list."

Chen Yu pointed to the list, and said slowly: "Then send it to the capital and ask the capital to check the background of these businessmen."

 Sorry, it's even late for dinner today, there will be another update later!
