Chapter 200 Capital Revolution
Seeing Zhan Ming, who had always been calm, Ouyang couldn't help but ask nervously: "Who is it?"
Zhan Ming leaned into Ouyang's ear and whispered: "The commander of the big neighbour."
Ouyang was shocked: "The commander of the inner guard? General of the cavalry? The boss of the inner guard who assisted Emperor Shenzong, Emperor Zhezong, and Emperor Zhezong, who entrusted his orphans to the orphans of Emperor Zhezong? Impossible? His loyalty to the emperor..."
"Shh" Zhan Ming interrupted and said in a low voice: "From my understanding, this Liu Si Nu is actually secretly serving the current emperor. Think about it, if the Supreme Emperor has any thoughts and actions, who can only rely on for external contact? There is only one Liu Si Nu's relative. Besides, the Supreme Emperor still favors the beautiful Liu. How could the daughter not look up to his father? As long as there is a turmoil, Liu Si Nu will not know the news? So he secretly bribed Liu Si Nu, and the Supreme Emperor's every move is under the surveillance of the great internal force and cannot jump out of his palm."
Ouyang said disbelief: "How could it be? If the emperor wanted to harm me, there was no need to do such a big scene. She had more than my handle." Not to mention anything else, you should not try this matter yourself. You should put yourself under house arrest and let others investigate the case. It is most likely that there is a possible crime.
Zhan Ming spread his hands: "I am very puzzled by this problem. Seeing that the emperor has been in Yangping for many days, he has always been protecting the adults. Besides, I didn't see that the emperor has any reason to attack the adults."
Ouyang asked: "Can you be sure that the emperor has a connection with Liu Sinu?"
"It is certain that through the secret investigation of the money shop, Liu Sinu used the token of exchange for money four times in the past few years. Two times of the four times were the headmaster's father, that is, the headmaster of Zhezong, and two times the headmaster personally saved it. Each amount was 10,000 guan, and the largest one was 70,000 guan."
"The water is getting muddy." Ouyang walked around the room and thought for a while and said, "Appoint the yamen runner who went to Tokyo to withdraw his secret visit and told Li Yifeng not to investigate the matter anymore. You can tell the brothers of Zheng that the case ends here. No one is allowed to discuss it or discuss this case."
"yes"
"Zhan Ming, if the emperor really wants to bribe Zhang San and Li Si and others to monitor me, then there will be a great possibility of many things."
Zhan Ming nodded slowly. It was not impossible. The best way to monitor Ouyang is to buy people around Ouyang. If everything was instructed by Zhao Yu, everything would be revealed. The news that Zhan Ming brought to Ouyang was like a bolt from the blue. In order to prevent others from being implicated, Ouyang still stopped the case. Originally, he thought it might involve a minister, but he did not expect it to involve the inner guard. If it was modern, Ouyang would definitely ask Zhao Yu to have a meal and ask the matter clearly. But in this era, Ouyang was not so idiotic. He was very troubled by his ministers.
But if Zhao Yu didn't know at all, and didn't know that the person he trusted the most was actually doing bad things? And would the news collected by Li Yifeng be faked? What did Song Huizong want to say to him? He would definitely not be the inner guard? There were countless doubts, and Ouyang felt a headache.
There is also the weave given by Wanyan Lan. Ouyang looked at the weave and thought that people he could trust. If Zhao Yu had made small moves, I'm afraid the people he could trust were only Zhan Ming and Ouping. Then why did Zhao Yu do small moves? Could it be that Zhao Yu had seen the harm of commercial reform to the feudal system? Or had Zhao Yu seen the affairs of himself and Liang Hongyu, or was a treacherous minister slandering him? If he was obviously troubled by himself, he was also a famous person, which would definitely arouse suspicion and dissatisfaction in the business world. Even among the people and the court, Zhao Yu's prestige would be greatly reduced. Before the bird was finished, the bow would be hidden... If it was the name of a prison, no one in the world could argue. If this was true, Zhao Yu's acting skills would be enough to be the best actress of the Oscar. But if you think about it carefully, is a politician who is not good at performing a role as a politician?
Zhan Ming saw Ouyang taking the hem of clothes and asked, "Sir? This hem of clothes?"
"Zhan Ming, do you have anyone trusted in the Tokyo Imperial Army?"
"Tokyo Imperial Guard? My cousin is in charge of the supplies."
“Are you smart and reliable?”
Zhan Ming smiled and said, "He is the little boss of the kitchen. He has earned three wives and two houses in a few years. He is not only smart, but also smart. As for reliability, as long as he doesn't help rebel, it's okay to kill someone."
Ouyang nodded: "Can he do it by secretly asking him to check the owner of this piece of clothing?"
"Is it urgent?"
"No hurry, I'd rather throw it away than be surprised, and be sure."
Zhan Ming nodded: "No problem. Huilan will go to Tokyo in a few days. I will accompany Huilan and tell him when I visit him."
"Well" Ouyang swept his head and leaned against the chair: "If everything is true, it will be troublesome." He thought of Zhang Xuanming. If Zhang Xuanming guessed that it was Zhao Yu's actions, then the high-profile handling seemed to inform someone, so that it would make sense. As for why Zhang Xuanming wanted to help him, the answer was simple and likely. If someone wanted to touch Ouyang, Zhang Xuanming hoped that he was the knife, not someone else. Of course, everything was a guess, and it was still far from the truth of the fact.
...
That night, Ouyang was in a bad mood and had a bad appetite. Wang Baofu was very obedient and went back to the room to write first. Ouping felt that although the case proved that Ouyang was framed, Ouyang himself did not pay attention to this case. If you have any questions, Ouping asked directly: "Young master, it is rare to see you in such a difficult situation."
Ouyang nodded: "Well...I guess someone is going to attack me."
"Someone?" Ou Ping said: "Young Master, is this someone?"
Ouyang pointed to the roof and refused to speak. Ou Ping was shocked and it turned out that the emperor was going to attack Ouyang. When Ouyang saw Ouping was about to speak, he spoke first: "Don't ask, don't worry. If I have any shortcomings, I have to ask you to take care of Baofu and his uncle and aunt."
Ou Ping said carefully: "Young Master, I don't think it's the emperor. If it were the emperor, I wouldn't have used such a complicated prison to frame you."
"Just because of attacking me, the charge cannot be just a political crime. If she fully estimates my influence, using a prison sentence is the best method." Ouyang said: "Although it is impossible to make a conclusion yet, it is time to prepare. I, Ouyang, are not used to waiting for others to lift my knife before escaping my life. Don't worry about this matter, just pretend you don't know anything. Tokyo Royal University will open a female class this year and accept a small number of female students. The quota is limited. After graduation, you can be qualified as a juren and be able to take the imperial examination. You can find a way to send Baofu in."
"There is no problem with this. With the current name of the young master, everyone will be able to sell their face." Ou Ping said: "Young master, but haven't you always said that you hope Bao Fuping will live a peaceful life?"
"A juren is like a gold medal for avoiding death. If he becomes a female official, I shouldn't be involved with her." Ouyang stood up and said, "I'll go back to my room, eat slowly."
...
Preparation, what preparations should be made? The Song Dynasty is strong and strong. Unless it is fleeing to the Mediterranean, even Arab countries dare not take them in.
Ouyang wrote the information in English, and he wanted to organize an idea. The focus of the information was the French Great***. The French government was very similar to the current government of the Song Dynasty. In the 18th century, capitalism was very advanced in France, with large-scale handicraft workshops appearing. The capital class was the richest class, but had no political status. The feudal land ownership system was retained in the countryside. During this period, three classes appeared in France. The first class was composed of Catholic priests and nobles, the second class was the rulers at all levels that ruled the people, the third class, the capital class, peasants and urban civilians.
**The origin of the explosion was that France was financially tense, and the king added new taxes to the third class in the Tripole Parliament (equivalent to the DPRK meeting). The third class required the reorganization of the Tripole Parliament to the National Assembly. When the king was preparing to suppress it by force, the people of Paris held an uprising. A constitutional monarchy was established, but an uprising was rebelled soon and a republic was established.
The origin of the Great ** is naturally a class contradiction, but the catalyst is the Enlightenment. After all, it is the blueprint and prospects for capitalist society. The top priority in the *** is Congress.
Ouyang Si compares that the Song Dynasty and the French Tripolar Parliament have the same similarities. The French Parliament is also composed of the first and second classes, while the king has the right to veto and pass. Assuming that if the court meeting can be controlled, it can control the emperor without bleeding. The parliament will be formed by feudal officials for the time being and the constitution is laid. But the important thing is that the court officials must support capitalism. According to the current structure of the court officials, although merchants infiltrate the court ministers, most of them are still feudal ideas. Even the small part of the penetration is based on money and interests, and they have no understanding of the capital society. The most regrettable is that the merchants seem to be interested in temporary interests and give up the idea of interfering in politics, at most they are allowed to pass or not to pass certain policies.
To carry out Song Dynasty, there are several necessary points. The first is the enlightenment of capital society. The second is the support of enough ministers. Now Ouyang is controlled by the terrifying weapon of newspapers and the unity of merchants. If a series of chains of Zhao is to be carried out, one thing is necessary, that is, the financial crisis.
A month later, it was the annual top-level business association meeting of the North and South Business Association before the New Year. Mr. Su had transferred most of the shares of the Yangping Business Association to Su Qian. Su Qian was not only the CEO of the Yangping Business Association, but also the first director of the Yangping Business Association. Zhou Anben was the founder of the Southeast Business Association, owned 40% of the shares and is currently the first director. He is the first in charge on both sides, holding more than 40% of the wealth of the Song Dynasty and controlling more than 90% of the currency circulation in the Song Dynasty.
There were three people in the first meeting, and the secretary, department or project leader who originally attended the meeting was not present for the time being.
...
Ouyang said: "Everyone is my own, so I don't say secret words. As far as I know, the court seems to be ready to attack the merchants. I don't think both of them will ask the court why they attack the merchants, but why the court is ready to attack the merchants so quickly."
Su Qian nodded: "We were all worried about this when we first established the business association. We were worried that the business association's influence was too great and was taboo to the court. Now, the control of the two north and south commercial associations from currency to people's livelihood is faster than that of the court. Take Shanggu County for example. There are 200,000 residents in the city and 60,000 young and strong people, and 80,000 of them are working in the venues under the business association. To put it bluntly, as long as the venues are all stopped, Shanggu will be in chaos."
Zhou An nodded: "As long as we order the closure of each venue for one month, the workers have no money and the residents have no supplies, even the military logistics are not easy to supply. I believe that someone in the court should see this. However, in my opinion, the court and I should not take action so quickly."
Ouyang nodded: "One-half percent of the profits of the two business associations are used to win over relations with the court ministers, so the current politics and decision-making in the court are tilted towards merchants. The collusion between officials and merchants is not a new topic, and the emperor may not be unaware of it. There are also places where merchants are available. Needless to say, burn money in wars. When I look at my magistrate's salary, I know how much the court needs to do so many officials. I originally thought the court would not do anything, but it seemed that I had read it wrong."
Su Qian hurriedly asked, "What do you say?"
"You should all know about the Yangping corpse sinking case?"
Zhou An nodded: "It can be said that Yu Xiao, a household member, sent a letter. If he hadn't seen the adults have nothing to do, he would have gone out. At that time, he was thinking that if the adults had something to do, it would be difficult for us to communicate between the north and the south, and I'm afraid the court would slowly find a way to exploit us."
"Well, then what I want to tell you is. Although there is no conclusion yet, this matter is probably the emperor's envoy. What do you think?"
"Emperor?" The two were shocked. Why did the emperor attack Ouyang? Could it be the prelude to suppress Shang?
"If I had fallen into this case, I believe you wouldn't have thought it was the court's intention. Then various policies were implemented slowly, focusing on agriculture and over commerce, increasing taxes, collecting and controlling coins, taking over money houses, etc. Control all industries that can affect people's livelihood in the hands of the central court. At that time, the merchants were Sun Wukong and could not jump out of the palm of Tathagata's hand."
"Hmph" Su Qian said dissatisfied: "They say they are alive and die, and they can die if they say they are dead. Just say that the standards for establishing the Commercial Law of Adults are already very strict. However, last month, the court issued a document saying that the internal accounts of the Commercial Association must be reported to the Ministry of Revenue every six months. It is a serious violation of the Commercial Law. Another point is that the Commercial Law also shows that any change in any regulations must be made after the court's discussion. But as far as I know, this official document changed when the Emperor explained it to the Ministry of Revenue."
"If you have any benefits, come up with the commercial law, and if you don't have any benefits, change the commercial law." Zhou An sighed and said, "What else can we do?"
"The emperor is me, she only knows how to listen to her own. So we must use the court's ability to speak." Ouyang said: "We cannot have no say at all, and we cannot even convey the voices of opposition.
Su Qian nodded: "I have made friends with several second-rank ministers. If it were a court discussion on commercial law, these people should speak out."
"This is too passive. We not only make friends with court officials, but more importantly, we must support our own people." Ouyang said: "I know you have small moves, but you can control them all. They are all seventh-rank and eighth-rank officials. If you can't even go to court meetings, we have to support these people who can control, fifth-rank, or even first-rank. At the same time, we cannot passively communicate with ministers, and we have to use means. Otherwise, if there is a conflict of interest, we may be the weak people who have been abandoned by them."
Su Qian asked: "What do you think of sir?"
"Create a dirty official account." Ouyang said: "My idea is to send someone we don't recognize and station in Tokyo. Record the dark side of each official and threaten them if necessary. But you must not be shown that this person is ours."
Su Qian and Zhou An looked at each other, and Su Qian asked in a low voice: "Sir, don't you want to rebel, are you?"
"We don't do anything to rebel." Ouyang took a sip of herbal tea and said, "But if someone wants us to spit out all our hearts, we can't be unprepared. Both of them are heroes, so we should understand what I mean. I said it. If someone disagrees today, everyone will forget it today and let everyone come in for a meeting. If neither of them wants to be controlled by others all the time and hope that the merchants can also influence the decision-making of the court in the future, we will study it downward."
Su Qian and Zhou An did not agree, but they did not object. They each began to ponder. Ouyang's meaning was very clear, and it was not necessary to rebel, but if the emperor forced him to do so in the future, he would not be unprepared.
The two of them pondered, and Ouyang continued: "The court cannot be the final say of the gentry, nor can it be unable to restrict the emperor. Look at Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, at the beginning, he was extremely wise and opened up an enlightened and prosperous era. However, due to his mistakes in middle and late years, life was devastated, the country was divided, and the people suffered. The fate of a country, the fate of merchants, and the fate of the people cannot be determined by one person, but should be decided by those who can represent them."
Su Qiandao: "It's not impossible to do this. From the perspective of Yangping Business Association, there are no adults, nor business associations. Over the years, adults have never missed their decisions. Rebellion... To be honest, no one dares, but Youdao is willing to sacrifice himself and dares to bring down the emperor. If the court really has any ideas, we should also make some preparations. Of course, this preparation must be very safe."
"In fact, there have been many people in the Song and Dashang in the past hundred years. However, there are very few people who have good endings. Gouguan was just a temporary wealth. The reformed palace struggle involved local officials from all over the country, and always involved many people. They were greedy for wealth and envious... I think it is still necessary to make some preparations." Zhou An said: "I would like to tell me, we will make plans."
"Okay," Ouyang said: "Then I will talk about my ideas first."
The three-person meeting lasted for one day. After waiting for three days, the meeting ended in a hurry after one day. The three-person meeting determined several plans, and the Yangping Business Association was responsible for the infiltration of the imperial ministers, and the Southeast Business Association was responsible for the Southeast Business Association. Ouyang wrote the outline and published the novel - Sleepwalking. Using fantasy techniques, the main theme of modern business society life is written by telling the story of freedom and equality. Of course, Ouyang asked others to write.
...
Not resisting is not Ouyang's style, but it is another New Year's Day. On the morning of New Year's Day, Zhan Ming met with Ouyang in private.
"This person's surname is Jin. Because he is ranked third, he is called Jin San. He recruited the imperial guards two years ago. Because of his powerful and extraordinary martial arts, he is currently serving as a lieutenant. This person is taciturn and has no good friends with him. My cousin pays attention to this person, because his appetite is famous among the Tokyo Imperial Guards, and the other is good at using swords. My cousin and I said that Kong Wu is powerful and the sword-playing man is the first person to think of him." Zhan Ming said: "At the case, this person also applied for a set of imperial guards' clothes from my cousin."
"The food is large, unsociable, Kong Wu is powerful, such a person is very eye-catching." Ouyang sneered: "And when he was still on the desk, 99% of it was a trap waiting for me to check. Where are the people?"
"I am from Qizhou, Tokyo East Road, and I got the address of his hometown."
Ouyang nodded: "Well, after the New Year, you worked hard to go to Qizhou and said you would go out for business. I believe no one can follow you."
"Don't worry, sir, this matter is for me."
