Seeing He Jin's face change drastically, and only asked about free meals, Yang Yiqing was shocked at the time: Boy, you don't care why I blame you when I come up?

You don’t even think about such a big business, just care about a meal?

But, since they have said everything, Yang Yiqing has no choice: Why is it a high-ranking official in the Ming Dynasty? Who still lacks that bite?

This shameless little slander has brought it up. I can't really let him have a meal, right?

Then, he could only arrange meals with laughter and tears.

Then He Jin ate at the dinner table so happily, because Mrs. Yang's cooking skills were really amazing, a dish of white cut chicken, a plate of taro butter, and a bowl of Cordyceps sinensis and bamboo-stained chicken soup. She truly grasped the essence of Cantonese cuisine, seeking freshness in the clear and beautiful in the light, and not enough to eat it.

But scholars are very particular about not talking about food or sleeping. Yang Yiqing is obviously holding back all his words, but he is embarrassed to speak.

He could only wait until He Jin finished eating before saying depressedly: "Boy, you don't want to know why I came up and spoke ill of you?"

"I don't care, I don't care... I just complain that is neither light nor heavy. If every complaint can be exchanged for such a delicious meal, I would rather be blamed every day."

As soon as he said this, Mrs. Yang looked at He Jin even more liked: No wonder this young man is so proud of his holy life, well... he is really good at speaking.

Yang Yiqing was even more depressed and could only take the initiative to tell his thoughts: "Do you know? Since the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce, there is no one to choose the Minister of the Right and Right, and I don't know what things to do. Now the court is calling for the abolition of the Ministry of Commerce, thinking that it is useless."

"Today, I was completely speechless when facing the questioning of the officials in the court. Even His Majesty felt that it was just a matter of border trade, and it could be completely left to the Ministry of Revenue for management, and the Ministry of Commerce did not have the need to exist..."

"Then I proposed to establish this Ministry of Commerce, so when Lord Shangshu saw me, his mood became even less beautiful?" After hearing this, He Jin immediately smiled secretly: Sure enough, he was here right this time.

Of course, he also knew about these calls from the court, and the subsequent plan was related to this matter. Now Yang Yiqing took the initiative to mention it, which was exactly what he wanted.

"Since others think that our Ministry of Commerce has nothing to do, then find something to do." After eating, he drank a little wine slowly, so He Jin picked up the wine glass and touched Yang Yiqing for a while.

Yang Yiqing also raised the cup, but after hearing He Jin's words, he obviously didn't react: "Every department in the court has its own duties, how can you do it just by talking about it?"

Now He Jin's face turned strange: Yang Shangshu... You can't even find trouble if you have nothing to do, but why do you still be an official? Look at the employees of our later generations who pretend to be so busy that they believe it. And is it a problem that you just want to do something for the Ming Dynasty?

Then, he tentatively mentioned: "Shangshu Yang, do you say that we have only brought down the Zhang family, and the Shanxi merchant bureaucratic group has collapsed... But that, the salt affairs of the Ming Dynasty that His Majesty sent me to investigate?"

Hearing this, Yang Yiqing became energetic and said, "Yes, you guy has been struggling in Huai'an for half a year. He has been fighting Japanese pirates and has to lift the sea ban. How can you rectify the salt affairs of Daming? There is no movement at all?"

As soon as he heard this, He Jin suddenly didn't want to talk to Yang Yiqing: This old man is so serious that he can't hear any words.

Am I talking about my own problem?

Aren’t we going to find something for the Ministry of Commerce? What’s wrong with the salt affairs of the Ming Dynasty? Isn’t it just that the world was peaceful in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and the powerful and powerful gentry began to show their fangs and borrow power to seek personal gain?

Who doesn’t want to have a piece of meat like this fat in the salt industry?

The result is that the Shanxi Shang Group led by Zhang Yi took the lead in seizing business opportunities and started a monopoly - this problem is actually an economic problem. If the Ministry of Commerce doesn’t want to solve it, it deserves to be said to be useless!

But there was no way, I ate the food and drank the wine... Thinking of this, He Jin could only sigh and said, "Mr. Yang, have you never thought about letting the Ministry of Commerce review the Ministry of Revenue's salt tax and plug the loopholes in the Daming Salt Industry?"

"The Ministry of Commerce will review the salt taxation of the Ministry of Revenue?" Yang Yiqing was shocked when he heard this and stopped his wine glasses in the air: "You kid ask the Ministry of Commerce to compete with the Ministry of Revenue for food?"

"Either grab food or add more supervision." He Jin didn't even have the strength to shake his head, so he could only explain in detail: "Why was the salt industry in the Ming Dynasty swallowed and eroded by Zhang Yijing? It was just that he relied on his disciples and old officials all over the world, and they were all placed in departments related to the salt industry."

"If the Shangshu wrote a letter and the Ministry of Commerce will review the salt taxation of the Ministry of Revenue, wouldn't it be a layer of guarantee? In addition, it is stipulated that the personnel between the two departments shall not be fellow townsmen, the same teacher or even the same family members in the same year."

"And if you miss it, you will be rewarded. You said that even if those powerful and powerful gentry bribed the Ministry of Revenue and local officials, they could not pass the Ministry of Commerce, what's the use?"

Yang Yiqing's eyes couldn't help but lit up, and he couldn't help but slap the dining table and said, "Boy, this trick is amazing! If so, wait...will the censors of various subjects be useless?"

"How can it be useless!" At this time, He Jin wanted to take off his boots and pluck Yang Yiqing's shoes and face: "The censors of all departments know the economics. They monitor the impeachment of officials but the conduct of the Ministry of Commerce is focusing on the overall situation of the salt industry."

"In addition, the Ministry of Commerce has since become the last step for salt quota, but what should you do if you get a card from the Ministry of Commerce? Isn't it that the Censor of Kedao to supervise the impeachment? In this way, the Ministry of Revenue will handle affairs, the Ministry of Commerce review, and the Censor of Kedao comprehensively inspected and supervised, and all aspects will be blocked?"

After listening to all He Jin's plans, Yang Yiqing suddenly felt that in front of him, he opened the door to a new world: It turned out that this is the position and responsibility of the Ministry of Commerce.

The Ministry of Commerce should adjust and straighten the matters of north and south, communicate with east and west, involve business exchanges and money flows, rather than just limiting border trade, and be a rake for money and a calculation for the Ming Dynasty.

Suddenly, he felt a lot of ideas and ideas in his mind, and he rushed out: "Boy, according to what you say, there are too many facts that the Ministry of Commerce can do. For example, the commercial taxes in various industries in the Ming Dynasty should actually be managed by the Ministry of Commerce."

He Jin immediately responded, saying, "That's right... The Ministry of Commerce manages commercial taxes. In the past, there was no Ministry of Commerce, so the Ministry of Revenue gave this part. Now that the Ministry of Commerce has been established, professional departments should be managed."

"Where is the court's minting and printing of coins, which should be investigated and reviewed in advance by the Ministry of Commerce?"

"Yes!" He Jin nodded again.

Then Yang Yiqing seemed to be a little upset and said, "Then... the royal village garden forest, the emperor, the harem and the Eastern Palace all costs?"

"Uh..." He Jin's face became constipated and reminded tactfully: "This hand is a little longer, and it is also a bit of a taboo of being a minister."

Yang Yiqing immediately realized it and smiled embarrassedly.

But then I felt that my heart was urging me to stand up and paced: "Then, what else can I do? ... I always feel that the Ministry of Commerce can do a lot of things for the Ming Dynasty."

"That's right, right." He Jin immediately stepped forward and said, "I thought of one thing."

"For example, when the maritime ban was opened, all the maritime bans in the Ming Dynasty were either managed by special eunuchs or allowed local governors to serve as part of the position, which was not an individual."

"In the past, it was a Tonggong trade, of course there was no problem, but after the sea ban was opened, it was a large amount of overseas trade. How could it be done by relying on eunuchs or governors to serve as part-time? Of course, it was appropriate to be managed by the Ministry of Commerce."

"It's not bad, what you said makes sense." Yang Yiqing nodded immediately when he heard this, and agreed continuously.

Then He Jin continued, "And boy thinks that everything you do must be justified. You may as well write to Your Majesty and assign all the Maritime Bureaus of the Ming Dynasty to the Right Minister of Commerce to the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Commerce, so that you can coordinate and plan development..."

"It makes sense, it makes sense." Yang Yiqing still smiled and said, "The current Ministry of Commerce of the Ming Dynasty is mainly border trade and future Maritime Affairs. In this way, the left assistant minister can be in charge of borders and the right assistant minister can be in charge of the Maritime Affairs Affairs. The division is clear, and I am in the center to take charge of the overall situation..."

"Yes, yes." He Jin also agreed with a smile, and finally showed his fox's tail and said, "That adult will look at the candidate for the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Commerce..."

In an instant, Yang Yiqing's face froze.

Looking back at He Jin's shy and timid expression, he looked eager to greet but rejected, especially when he lowered his head, he blinked at him twice...

Suddenly, Old Yang clenched his fists and the blue veins on his forehead were revealed: "Good boy, it turns out that you have dug a hole long ago and are waiting for me here!...You go, hurry up, walk slowly, I am afraid that I can't help but beat you to death!"
