Chapter 674 Excellent material!
In the final analysis, government yamen is a violent institution, and there is no reason to talk about it.

If it was ordinary common people, then Shen Yi would sit down and reason with them, but for these gentry who had committed crimes, Shen Yi was willing to sit down and talk to them, for them, it was already a favor.

Seeing that Shen Yi's face turned cold, the young man's expression froze immediately, and he quickly bowed his head to Shen Yi and said, "My lord, I made a slip of the tongue."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Ye Chan stood up slowly, looked at the dozen or so people present, cleared her throat, and said, "Uncles and brothers, we are about to establish two yamen in Fuzhou, the Shibo Division and the Coastal Capital Division. According to the request of the imperial court, I will be fined and confiscated from my property and business income, which will be handed over to the Dusi Yamen in the future, so that the Dusi Yamen can distribute the military salaries of the Dusi officers and soldiers."

"After confiscating [-]% of my property, I will be doing business for the capital's yamen from now on..."

Speaking of this, Ye Chan glanced at Shen Yi, lowered her head slightly and said, "Master Shen, do you agree with this statement?"

Shen Yi lowered his eyes and said lightly: "As long as you conduct business in a law-abiding manner, I can express my opinion here. In the future, the Dusi Yamen will protect you from being exploited by local officials, but this protection is not without conditions."

He glanced at everyone, and said lightly: "In the second half of this year, the Fuzhou Shipbuilding Department will start operating. At that time, I hope that everyone who goes to sea to do business will leave from the Shibo Shipping Department and bring some benefits to the merchants in Fuzhou." size."

He looked at the crowd, and said, "Everyone, express your opinion."

Ye Chan was right next to Shen Yi, she looked at the crowd, and said, "Everyone, the tax for Shibo is one out of ten. In the past, when our ships went out to sea, there were probably more than that for Japanese pirates. It's already reached this time... "

She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Be aware."

Ye Chan opened his mouth, and all the Fuzhou gentry present stood up, cupped their hands at Shen Yi and said, "I'll wait, and obey the imperial envoy's orders!"

In this way, the treatment of these Fuzhou gentry was basically over, and it happened that the food in Mingxianglou was also served at this time, and Shen Yi sat down to eat with carelessness.

After noon, the meal was basically finished. Master Shen patted his stomach, looked at the crowd, and said: "Everyone take your time, I still have some things to deal with, so I'm leaving first."

"correct."

After Shen Yi stood up, he glanced at the crowd and said, "Tomorrow, I will leave Fuzhou. If you have something to say, it's best to say it face to face. You won't be able to find me tomorrow."

More than a dozen people present looked at each other, shook their heads and said, "There is nothing to trouble the imperial envoy."

Shen Yi nodded and left with his hands behind his back.

After Shen Yi left, the fourteen people present all set their eyes on Ye Chan.

One of the middle-aged Confucian scholars in their 40s looked at Ye Chan silently, and sighed: "My niece is very clever, after this incident, not only did your Ye family not lose money, but you might even make a fortune. "

Seeing someone attacking Ye Chan, someone stood up again, feeling a little weird: "That's right, the imperial envoy values ​​the eldest niece so much, I'm afraid it doesn't matter whether the Ye family's property is handed over or not."

Miss Ye stood up, without any expression of fear on her face, but quietly glanced at everyone, and said slowly in Fuzhou local dialect: "Uncles and brothers, I have no control over what you think in your heart." , but I have a few words that I want to tell everyone.”

"First, the crimes committed by our families were originally intended to be beheaded."

"Now, not to mention saving the lives of the whole family, it is already a blessing among misfortunes that part of the family property can be preserved. If you are not angry, you can go to Beijing right away to sue imperial envoy Shen."

"Moreover, most of your families have several officials who are officials. You can also write to them and ask them to join this Shen imperial envoy."

All the people present looked at each other and fell silent.

To be honest, those present here who are capable of participating in Shen Yi have already participated last year.

Stone sinks into the sea.

Some of the memorials were scolded by the emperor.

They couldn't move Shen Yi, and they couldn't move him by any means.

Ye Chan glanced at the crowd and continued, "If you don't go to join Mr. Shen, then you have to accept your fate."

She took a deep breath and continued, "Little girl, I'm going to set up a Fuzhou chamber of commerce."

She looked at the crowd and continued: "With [-]% of the property of each family and my Ye family as the foundation of the chamber of commerce, the income of the chamber of commerce will be handed over to the coastal capital's yamen."

"Little girl, I will be waiting for you to come to the Ye family's mansion early tomorrow morning, and we will discuss how to hand over the family property and establish the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce."

"Whether you come or not, it's all up to you."

After all, she also got up and left.

An old man stood up, looked at Ye Chan, and asked, "Miss Ye, what is the constitution of this chamber of commerce, can you tell us about it?"

"Joint venture."

Ye Chan said without hesitation: "If you are willing to hand over your shops to the chamber of commerce for joint operation, then the chamber of commerce will make unified planning and purchase raw materials for those in the same industry, such as rice and cloth."

"In the future, the chamber of commerce can even coordinate prices, and use the chamber of commerce to communicate with other provinces."

"In this way, everyone's business will be easy."

Ye Chan said quietly: "Except the part that will be handed over to the capital's yamen, everyone will get their own share of the remaining income."

The eldest girl of the Ye family said with a firm expression: "About the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce, a few decades ago there were giant merchants who proposed to establish it. However, the various families and merchants in Fuzhou have not been able to unite as one. This time, I just took advantage of this opportunity."

"Uncles and brothers, if you are willing to join the Chamber of Commerce, we will discuss the regulations in detail in the past few days. If you are not willing to join this Chamber of Commerce."

"With [-]% of the property of each family, the little girl can also set up a chamber of commerce by herself."

Having said that, Ye Chan walked towards the door. When she reached the door, she looked back at everyone and said, "Tomorrow, the little girl will be waiting for you all at Ye's house!"

After that, she turned and left.

After Ye Chan left, there was another discussion in this private room.

"This little lady is probably hooking up with that Shen surname!"

A harsh voice sounded, gnashing teeth: "Maybe she is the one who colluded with this outsider to seize the property of our Fuzhou locals!"

Some smarter people shook their heads slightly, and said: "This time, if you can escape from robbery, you have already narrowly escaped death, so let's treat it as a waste of money to eliminate disasters."

There was a lot of discussion among the people present.

An old man in his 60s who was the oldest in the grade stood up. He looked at the direction Ye Chan left and was quite moved.

"This little girl is much more powerful than her immediately handsome man."

Someone stood in front of the old man and said with emotion.

"Yes, this time, the Ye family may be blessed by misfortune..."

…………

Fuzhou City, Xingyuan.

Apricot Garden, it was Shen Yi who named this temporary residence for himself. The reason was because he saw an apricot tree blooming with one person in the yard earlier, and on a whim, he called this place Apricot Garden.

As for the original name of this house, Shen Yi no longer knows.

Because this house was arranged for him by the Di Bao Si, when he moved in, the plaque had already been removed.

In the backyard of Xingyuan, Miss Ye was sitting under a pavilion, looking at the scenery in the backyard. Jiang Sheng poured her tea and brought some pastries. It's almost time to wake up, shall I wake him up for you?"

After Shen Yi came back from Mingxiang Building, because he was a little sleepy, he went to take a nap.

Not long after he fell asleep, Ye Chan followed on his heels.

Miss Ye shook her head slightly and said, "Young master has a lot to do, I'm not in a hurry, just wait a while."

Jiang Sheng nodded, and after a while, a servant came to report that Shen Yi had woken up. Jiang Sheng lowered his head slightly and said, "Miss Ye, you go to the study and wait. I'll invite you to come over."

Ye Chan nodded, stood up and said, "Thank you brother, I know where the study is, I'll just go there myself."

Jiang Sheng nodded repeatedly, and ran to inform Shen Yi.

After about a cup of tea, Ye Chan was in Shen Yi's study and saw Master Shen who had just woken up not long ago. She gave a little blessing and saluted, "I've seen you, sir."

Shen Yi waved his hands, yawned and sat on the main seat, and asked, "How did Miss Chan'er get here?"

Ye Chan replied honestly, "He came by carriage."

"From the front door?"

Ye Chan said "Yes", and looked at Shen Yi cautiously: "My lord, can't I enter through the front door?"

"That's not it."

After Shen Yi yawned, he said lazily: "Just now, Miss Chan'er benefited from the arrogance of those gentry in Fuzhou. If you come here in such an open manner, they will probably scold you behind your back if they know about it. gone."

Ye Chan took a deep breath: "If the concubine doesn't come, they will scold them as they should."

She lowered her head slightly and said: "The concubine has not left the Mingxiang Tower, but I heard them gossiping behind me."

Master Shen glanced at her, and said helplessly, "It's useless to regret now."

"I don't regret it."

She looked resolute, looked at Shen Yi and said: "My lord, I have seriously considered the situation in Fuzhou during this period of time, and I am going to take this opportunity to establish the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce and integrate the business community in Fuzhou."

"If this thing is done, things will be much easier in the future, and the chamber of commerce will be able to make more money for the capital's yamen."

Speaking of which, she paused, and looked at Shen Yi cautiously: "After earning a lot of money, how much will I give to the Dusi Yamen, I will ask you, son..."

The implication of this sentence is that the extra money earned can be secretly given to Shen Yi instead of public account.

Master Shen didn't answer, but thoughtful: "So Miss Chan'er came to me today, just to let those people see..."

"To facilitate the establishment of the Fuzhou Chamber of Commerce?"

Ye Chan bowed her head deeply and said, "The main thing is to report this matter with the young master, and borrow the young master's tiger power by the way..."

Master Shen lowered his head and took a sip of tea, pondered for a while, then smiled dumbly.

"Miss Chan'er doesn't need to stand, sit down and talk."

After Ye Chan hesitated for a moment, she sat down opposite Shen Yi.

Shen Yi took a serious look at the young woman and sighed.

"Pity."

Master Shen said with emotion.

"It's a pity that Miss Chan'er is a woman, so she can't enter the court, otherwise, with your heart, you can enter the court as an official."

"What a fantastic piece of material."
