Blood from Daming

Chapter 585 Fur
However, the officials of Chengxuan Zhengsi quickly calmed down, and they are satisfied with the plain credit. If they are too greedy, the harmony in the officialdom will be ruined. The credit for this should be counted on the officials who are far away in Hangzhou, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. This is a difficult technical task.

No matter how difficult it is, it can't be difficult for the officials of the Ming Dynasty who danced with words. Everything is due to Pan Ruzhen leading the officials of the Zhejiang Third Division to blend and distribute the credit. Yan Sanniang has gained a great favor in the officialdom of Zhejiang. Yan Sanniang is these officials. With the God of Officials and the God of Wealth, Yan Sanniang and Xue's family are becoming more and more invincible in Hangzhou and even Zhejiang.

Yan Sanniang still handed over the management rights of the first batch of more than 1 fur and more than 100 catties of Liao ginseng to Hangzhou [Sanjiang Huitong] branch. No big deal, although the method is flawed, it is not easy to get real evidence. The most important thing is that Yan Sanniang has no energy to deal with shopkeeper Xiaodu for the time being, and she is also worried that the shopkeeper of the Hangzhou [Sanjiang Huitong] branch will change, which will arouse the attention of Hangzhou city and even the court.

So Yan Sanniang aggravated Master Zheng's authority and used Master Zheng to restrain shopkeeper Xiao Du. Master Zheng has rich experience in financial management and sophisticated methods. The entire Hangzhou [Sanjiang Huitong] branch has temporarily stabilized.

Yan Sanniang was very angry at Zuo Ming's self-assertion in North Korea. Zuo Ming violated her husband's and his limited plan to attack Jianlu in Liaodong. What made Yan Sanniang most dissatisfied with the Dongjiang military merger was that the Xue family army had completely turned into a mercenary army of the North Korean country, and became an important force to protect the North Korean country, dragging the Xue family army into a protracted war vortex.

The actions of the Xue family army in North Korea have seriously violated Xue Yun's policy. With Taiwan as the base, the north controlled Ryukyu to deter North Korea and Japan, and went south to compete for Luzon, Annan, Champa, Java, Siam, and Manchuria. According to the policy, the Xue family army on the entire island of Taiwan now only controls the main southern part, and the central part is intertwined with Zheng Zhilong's Shiba Zhi. I don't know if Zheng Zhilong's pirate group will choose to withdraw in a year or two, and the northern part will fall into the hands of the Spaniards.

Now the Xue family's army has not even completely occupied Taiwan Island. The Xue family's army did not have time to rest in Taiwan. Although the army and navy have expanded, they have not formed a joint force. Thinking of the powerful Dutch, Portuguese, and Spanish navies, as well as pirates like Zheng Zhilong, she had to worry about the coastal defense of Taiwan and Changtu Island.

Yan Sanniang's concerns are well-founded. Over the past two months or so, Qiao Guoliang, Liu Mandun, Song Kui, Niu San, Ma Tao, and others, with the cooperation of shopkeeper Chen and Patriarch Zhang, have been responsible for transporting food to Taiwan. The immigration work in the south of the Yangtze River has been carried out very smoothly. There are already more than 2 poor and poor refugees and refugees in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces, Yingtianfu in Nanjing, and parts of Huguang. Two of them touched the fleet of the good Zheng Zhilong of Spain respectively. Fortunately, there was no friction and all was well.

However, Xue Jiajun’s navy is only in the Taiwan Strait (Heishuigou), and the vice-governor Liu Ben led the Navy’s [-]th Fleet. The group of immigrants sent to Changtu Island was lured by Liu Mantun and Niu San in the Huguang area to beggar refugees from Shaanxi. Xue Jiajun's plan to introduce people to Taiwan Island also temporarily slowed down.

In order to reward and compensate Zhang Jiazhu, the important minister of Canada, and shopkeeper Chen's uncle Chen, Yan Sanniang promised to give Zhang Jiazhu and shopkeeper Chen a chance to buy [-] furs at a discounted price, but Huang Tianjiao found out about this news, and soon Soon Huang Tianjiao's father Huang Xisheng came to visit Yan Sanniang.

Yan Sanniang was a little speechless about Huang Xisheng's old department. In order not to attract the attention of the court, Yan Sanniang used her connections with Pan Ruzhen, the governor of Zhejiang Province, and even used her connections in the Third Division of Zhejiang Province to separate Huang Xida from colluding with the White Lotus Sect. It was all the trouble Huang Xisheng had brought on for him.

The Huang family is now mainly composed of two major forces, Huang Xisheng and Huang Xida. Strictly speaking, Huang Xida still has some strength in his hands. Most of the children of the Huang family serve in Huang Xida's army. Unfortunately, these people follow the white-clothed scholars. Huang Xisheng is guarding the old and weak of the Huang family. Sick and disabled, doing business in an orderly manner, except for a nominal title of patriarch, he has disappeared as an ordinary businessman.

Anyway, after Huang Xisheng became a servant of the husband, Yan Sanniang still wanted to give Huang Xisheng an extra chance. Yan Sanniang met Huang Xisheng and Huang Shengyuan in the backyard. The purpose of Huang Xisheng coming to see Yan Sanniang was to want a batch of cheap furs. Mother has a lot of opinions on Huang Tianjiao's act of letting his father come here in person instead of showing up.

Huang Xisheng has gone to Yan Mansion many times, but it was all to protect Huang Xida, in the final analysis, to protect him, Huang Xisheng and the Huang family. Yan Sanniang looked at the middle-aged scholar in front of him. The Xue family's direct subordinates and peripheral businesses overlapped. Apart from the name of the student, the role of this Huang Xisheng really disappointed Yan Sanniang.

Huang Xisheng said: "Mistress, ever since you got your younger brother Xida out of trouble, and the family got rid of the suspicion of the White Lotus Sect, it's all because the mistress bestowed favor on the Huang family through her subordinates. Your subordinates, now the subordinate's voice in the family has also been greatly enhanced."

Yan Sanniang said, "Mr. Huang, what are you going to do with Huang Xida and his like?"

Mr. Huang replied: "My cousin has thousands of officers and soldiers, and no less than a thousand trusted followers. As long as my subordinates and clan elders slowly enlighten me, I believe Xida will definitely join the master's command."

Yan Sanniang said: "Mr. Huang, you mean that you have not made any progress in talking with Huang Xida recently."

Huang Xisheng said: "Mistress, my cousin has an upright temper, and he won't be able to turn the corner for a while, and it's inconvenient for the subordinate to reveal too much information to him, so the progress of this matter will be slow."

Yan Sanniang frowned and said, "Mr. Huang, weigh whether you can persuade Huang Xida. If not, you can cut off from Huang Xida, so that Huang Xida won't implicate you and the Huang family in the future."

After hearing Yan Sanniang's words, Huang Xisheng immediately showed a troubled look on his face. He hesitated for a while before saying: "Mistress, if Xida is not tolerated, the Huang family may be split. It is very beneficial."

Yan Sanniang said: "The master means that Fuguo is not a treat for guests. For those who are unwilling or half-hearted, no matter how capable and powerful they are, the master will not accept them. Mr. Huang should consider the choice. To attract the court's attention, the master is helpless."

Huang Xisheng was silent for a while and said: "Mistress, this subordinate is incompetent. If the Huang family is divided internally, the subordinates can only control half of the personnel and resources, and most of the Huang family's martial arts elites are in Lingdi Xida. Most of them are weak people doing business, and most of them don't know the secret identity of their subordinates, once they part ways with Xida, they may be subordinates when they leave the Huang family."

Yan Sanniang said: "Mr. Huang must be reluctant to part with the patriarch status."

Huang Xisheng hurriedly said: "Mother, you misunderstood. This subordinate has tolerated my cousin so far for the sake of the overall situation. In fact, this subordinate is also physically and mentally exhausted now. After returning home, I will immediately separate from my cousin."

Yan Sanniang nodded slightly when she heard this, and Huang Xisheng said, "Mistress, this subordinate will take my leave now."

Seeing that Huang Xisheng was willing to get rid of Huang Xida's burden, Yan Sanniang saw that Huang Xisheng was hesitant to leave, and Yan Sanniang was still planning to give Huang Xisheng some sweetness, so Yan Sanniang said to Huang Xisheng, "Mr. Huang, what else do you have?"

Huang Xisheng kicked and said: "Mother, this subordinate originally wanted to ask for some Liaodong fur business, but now I have to deal with Xida's affairs, so let's forget about the fur."

Yan Sanniang said: "Mr. Huang, as long as you work with the master sincerely, you will have a share in the business of furs. How about this? After Mr. Huang and Huang have separated the boss, I will leave five thousand for Mr. Huang." Liaodong fur."

Huang Xisheng was very happy to hear that the mistress promised to keep 5 pieces of high-quality furs. Once these [-] pieces of high-quality furs come in and out, the minimum price is [-] to [-] silver. If there are more treasures, he is willing to ship them slowly. It is not impossible to earn another three to fifty thousand taels of silver.

At this time, Huang Xisheng became even more eager to get rid of the vampires of Huang Xida's family. For these years, Huang Xida has been a gold swallowing beast to the Huang family, and Huang Xida has almost absorbed all the income of the Huang family. Willing to submit to the white-clothed scholar, to Huang Xisheng, he was almost kicked out of the position of patriarch.

As the head of the patriarch, Huang Xisheng, it can be said that he endured humiliation and worked hard to support himself and the family business. Huang Xida received a lot of support from Huang Xisheng and his family, but he didn't know how to thank Huang Xisheng. Now that Huang Xisheng finally made up his mind to leave Huang Xida behind, he felt more relaxed. Huang Xisheng believes that Following the Xue family, not only can you make money, but thinking about his daughter Tianjiao, Huang Xisheng couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.

Huang Xisheng is also a businessman, and he promised Yan Sanniang: "Mistress, the profits from the fur will be dedicated to the master's great cause of restoring the country."

Yan Sanniang replied: "Mr. Huang, feel free to use what you get, the master has a lot of money, so you don't have to worry about it."

After listening to Yan Sanniang's words, Huang Xisheng showed his loyalty for a while, and then reluctantly agreed to keep the money he earned for his master. After Yan Sanniang praised Huang Xisheng for a few words, he let Huang Xisheng leave. Huang Xisheng proposed to see his daughter. Sanniang nodded in agreement, and ordered the female soldiers to send Huang Xisheng to Huang Tianjiao's residence.
