Chapter 451
"Second brother, are you okay!"

In the inn room in Fenzhou, Chai Fulin looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with concern, and he was also a brother. The middle-aged man rubbed his eyes with his hands and said with a forced smile:

"I've been around Yong Shengbo's mansion all day, and it's rare that I've been idle for a while, and I've gained a lot of weight, so what's the matter?"

Chai Fulin looked up and down a few times, then raised his voice and said:

"Leopard, you led the people to look at the house from a distance. I have a private conversation with my second brother."

Someone outside agreed, and Chai Fulin and the middle-aged man sat down when they heard that the people outside were leaving. Chai Fulin first handed the middle-aged man a cup of tea, and then said in a low voice:
"It's a full 7 taels of cash, and there are almost 8 taels of goods to be delivered in the next six months. They don't make a penny. The Yu family dares to speak up."

The middle-aged man did not speak, and asked after a moment of pondering:

"Did Wang Tong kill thousands of people on the grassland? Is this news true?"

"Indeed, several generals in the Xuan Mansion have bought their heads, and the head of Wang Tong has already been sent to the Ministry of War."

"Three thousand soldiers killed thousands of cavalry, three thousand soldiers killed several thousand cavalry...Unexpected, unexpected!"

Even though he vaguely heard these news at Uncle Yongsheng's mansion, he was still shocked to hear his own brother's confirmation. The middle-aged man murmured a few words to himself and said with a long sigh:

"What kind of ability does this Wang Tong have? Could it be that a three-headed and six-armed god can do such a big thing? I thought I could get rid of him this time and cut off the man's arm, but I didn't expect him to make such a feat... ...Third son, do you still remember Wang Shangshu from the Ministry of Officials?"

Chai Fulin nodded and said in a rough voice:
"Remember, the young master of the Wang family still has a status in the club, and he has given him a few good furnaces."

"If it wasn't for that Wang Tong's interference, how could we have forced us to attack? Besides this young master Wang, there is also Wang Duo, one by one since the fifth year of Wanli. This Wang Tong is clearly a demon star who is against us. ..."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man, who had always been calm and abnormal, clapped his hands together, and said bitterly:
"When we get back to the capital, why don't we send someone to get rid of this guy!!"

"Of course we have to get rid of this fellow, but the elder brother also said before we came here that we value Wang Tong too much. When it comes to heaven, he is just a foreign minister in Tianjin Wei. Let's be careful not to be noticed by those eyes and noses in the capital. Let’s do our own thing first.”

Hearing a few words from Chai Fulin, the middle-aged man nodded, and as soon as he picked up the tea bowl, Chai Fulin said with a smile:

"Second brother, do you know why the Yu family let you out? Xuanfu has also started to do alkali business, and it is still a joint venture with Tianjin Wei Wangtong. The business on alkali is the lifeblood of the Yu family. That's right, that's why the Yu family let them go after this incident happened, because they really took a big vengeance, thinking that we would help them deal with Wang Tong."

Speaking of this, someone outside reported that:

"The housekeeper of the Yu family, please see me!"

The two stopped talking. Not long after, a middle-aged man walked into the house, and the door was closed by the people behind. The chief housekeeper of the Earl's Mansion smiled and saluted and said:

"I met Mr. Lin Shufu and Mr. Lin Shucai. My master has something to say to you..."

*************
At the end of April in the eighth year of Wanli, Wang Tong was added the rank of Commander of Jinyiwei, and his actual post was still stationed in Tianjin Jinyiwei Qianhu, in charge of Tianjin Weihuo Organ Workshop.

On the second day of May, Yu Dayou's relatives in Fujian rushed to Tianjin Wei. Yu Dayou insisted on walking hundreds of steps every day, but he had to be supported by someone to move.

Wang Tong went over to talk with him every other day. The old man was still in good spirits, but when Wang Tong went, he always talked about the previous battles and the art of war in water and land battles. Ask about the tactics and military system of these Fan people outside.

At this point, everyone could see that the old general was about to run out of fuel. After Wang Tong retreated, he also told Yu Dayou something about Europe that he knew.

It is said that the fleet over there traveled across the ocean to reach the New World, dozens of hundreds of people defeated an army of tens of thousands, conquered a land as vast as the Ming Dynasty, and harvested countless gold and silver.

Why is it tens of thousands of miles away to the west, there are quite a few Fan countries over there, although the land and population are less than a province of Ming Dynasty, they are extremely warlike, with excellent soldiers, and they go to various places by boat to expand their territories. The same is true for those Fan people who came to Tianjin Wei, but they didn't dare to make mistakes because they saw the strength of Ming Dynasty.

I don’t remember much about history, but I still have an impression of the world map and the Warring States period of the Wa Kingdom. When Wang Tong mentioned that many places in the Southern Seas of the Ming Dynasty were occupied by Fan people, and that there were various things in the Wa Kingdom, Yu Dayou always listened. Careful, but mentally weak, many things can't be remembered the next day.

What Wang Tong said did not exceed the cognition of this era. If a person communicates more with Fanren and Japanese people, asks more and learns more, he can understand it. Outsiders know it, and at most they will be surprised. How could Wang Tong know? There are so many, not to mention that every time I speak, I screen out other people.

*************
In the seventh year of Wanli, businessmen from all over the place came to Tianjin Wei, although they were all doing business to make a fortune, but after all, it was a new construction, and most of them came to watch and explore.

In the eighth year of Wanli, the news gradually spread, everyone knew the way, and after they came here, they focused on doing business. Liaozhen and Xuanfu also set up warehouses here, and the warehouses selling alkali and lumber were also there. Opening, everyone knows in their hearts that Tianjin Wei's business has expanded a lot.

I don't know how many business opportunities there are in it. It's not a question of making money or not, but a question of earning more or less after coming.

Only the newly built shop has a general appearance, and the people who come to lease have already stepped through the threshold, and some even went to the insurance company to inquire when the latest plan will be released, and every inch of land is expensive, this is true.

Except for grain, the goods from the south that went north used to stop at Tianjinwei for a while, and most of them were shipped to the capital, but now they are reversed. It was sold at the store, but now the capital is coming to Tianjin Wei to buy it.

This kind of business opportunities are unlimited, such a prosperous place, but the rules are very big, there are no idlers and rogues in and outside the city, and there are no police officers to extort money.

Not to mention that young and strong people have a job to do when they come to Tianjin Wei, those rascals who love to relax and hate work, as long as they do anything to disturb the law, they will be taken away immediately to do hard labor, tidy up the seaside, and prepare to repair the port. It's been a lot of hard work, and after a few months of work, everyone has cleaned up and behaved.

As long as the errands are extorted and blackmailed, as long as they are verified to be true, after being punished according to the laws and regulations, they will also go to the beach to dig mud.

In such a place, it seems that the Bingbei Dao and the Qing Military Office, which should be in charge, do not exist. Everyone talks about it, but they only recognize Wang Tong, the Jinyiwei Qianhu, in their hearts.

Since Wang Tong's words are effective, and he speaks his mind on the ground of Tianjin Wei, businessmen from all over the world will always come to the door to place them to show their respect.

Originally, Wang Tong didn't want to see these people. As long as they do business on the ground in Tianjin Wei, Wang Tong can get benefits from them through taxation, rent and other means. Will not embarrass each other.

But he thought this way, but the merchants didn't think so, Wang Tong didn't see him, they thought that something had happened to Mr. Wang, and they were worried about doing business.

After being reminded by Yang Sichen, Wang Tong also realized this in a dumbfounding way. Everyone can't see it, but let the concierge make a roster. Anyone who visits the door, if the family property status is not at a certain level, let them stay. Gifts, write your name, identity, or what you want to do on the post, and in a few days there will be a letterhead reply from the Qianhu government office. heart of.

But some people still want to meet, for example, today, Bao Xiaozhi from the Haizhou Salt Transport Department Yamen, this Mr. Bao came with a post from the Haizhou Salt Transport Envoy.

Huai salt is all over the world, and the Haizhou Salt Transport Department is the official agency of the Huai salt production area. Being a salt transport envoy here is the best job in the world, and anyone who is not a close friend of the DPRK and China is not allowed to take up this position.

It is said that the current Salt Transport Envoy is an old man from Prince Yu's Mansion. He was released as an errand in the fifth year of Longqing. The post said that Bao Xiaozhi was the staff of the Salt Transport Envoy. See.

***********
Looking at Bao Xiaozhi's attire, one can tell that his fame is nothing more than a scholar, but one can tell by his manner of speaking that he is a person who has seen the market, and he can speak freely in front of powerful figures like Wang Tong.

"My master has prepared some special products of Haizhou for the adults, and please accept them with a smile... The little one came this time, in fact, he was asking for something. After June, the little one will go to Guangdong once again to buy some Fanren's foreign goods can be spoken differently, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to handle the errands. I heard that there is a school for general knowledge here, so I asked a few people for help."

The general affairs school that Zhang Yubei is in charge of has already reached a certain scale, but the people trained are mainly used in the workshop. Huge, Wang Tong naturally agreed.

Now that Wang Tong agreed, Bao Xiaozhi felt a lot more relaxed, and started gossiping with a smile:
"...We were supposed to be able to reach Tianjin in April, but there was a wind on the way, and the ship stopped in Shandong and was repaired..."

After all, the identities of the two parties are not small, and they are about to leave after a few gossips. Just as they started, someone came rushing outside and shouted outside the door:

"Master, hurry up, Old General Yu's side can't do it!!"
