The Yi State Peace Envoy will arrive in Jinling tomorrow.
As the leader of this negotiation, Fu Xiaoguan naturally needs to communicate with the negotiation team.
As the deputy envoy, Xu Huaishu, the Minister of Rites, of course also has the power to express his position.
In the huge official office of the Ministry of Rites, many officials looked at the scene in front of them in shock——
Fu Xiaoguan had one foot on the stool and rolled up his sleeves, looking fierce:
"I am the official envoy! Let me tell you now, when the Yi delegation comes, there is no need to receive it! Don't pay attention to it! Don't prepare a place to live! Don't worry about the food!"
Xu Huaishu blushed. He felt that his nephew wanted to quarrel with him. They had different opinions in Wu Dynasty. Although the boy from Huangguo was not here, it was obvious that Bai Yulian was under his instructions.
And now, this kid actually once again objected to the reception details he had drawn up these days, and his opposition was so thorough that he completely denied it!
"I, the Great Yu, came to the country in great dignity, and the Yi Kingdom's envoys came to negotiate peace, but they did not receive me when I went to the country. Where did you put the majesty of my country? If word spread, how would the people of the world view me? Go to the country? The Yu Dynasty is the birthplace of sacred learning, a country of etiquette, and it should set an example for the world!"
"What an example!"
Fu Xiaoguan did not give his uncle any face.
“More than a hundred people are here, how much money does this entertainment cost? Wouldn’t it be better to use the money to save those fleeing disaster victims in the slums!”
"Now I don't want to argue with you about the state of etiquette. Those are all false things. What I want is reality, and let the Yu Dynasty get the benefits it deserves!"
"If you persist, I will terminate your position as deputy envoy!"
Fu Xiaoguan almost jumped onto Xu Huaishu's table. Xu Huaishu's old face turned red, "You, you, you kid, why are you so unreasonable!"
"I am not trying to reason with you now..." Fu Xiaoguan withdrew his leg, stood on the ground, and glanced at the shocked officials, "You all remember this, who dares to disobey? My order, I will ask your majesty to tell you who is the official!"
He stared at these officials fiercely and said: "Don't think that I can't do it. I am your Majesty's son-in-law! In terms of background, you can't compare to me. In terms of official position, I am also a serious third-rank official. , so next, listen carefully to me!"
"When the Yi delegation came, they ignored it, asked no questions, and did not accompany them. They left it to dry for me. Remember, it must wait until the end of the New Year!"
"Hey, after the New Year, we will slowly discuss it again. During the discussion, you just listen and keep the paperwork. As for how to discuss it and to what extent it is discussed, this is my business, you guys. , don’t worry about it!”
Fu Xiaoguan shrugged his shoulders and walked away, "You missed an opportunity to make a fortune."
He left such incomprehensible words, left the official office of the Ministry of Rites, and ran to the official office of the Ministry of Commerce.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites had not yet come to their senses. They looked at Xu Huaishu and thought that it was a bit tragic for Master Shangshu to treat him as an uncle.
"What are you looking at!"
"...Sir, what about now...?"
Xu Huaishu sat down on the stool blowing his beard and staring. After a long time, he let out a long sigh of depression, "What else can I do? Then just pretend that this is not a bad thing, and we will see how he ends up!"
The officials came to their senses. Master Shangshu had never done anything to Fu Xiaoguan, but Fu Xiaoguan said that he had missed an opportunity to make a fortune. Could it be the stocks he issued today?
So the officials no longer discussed the reception of the Yi delegation, but discussed the stock.
“I went to take a look at noon, and there was a huge crowd of people. But after hearing what those people said, I thought this thing was unreliable.”
"Fortunately you didn't buy it and exchanged money for paper. Only a small official has the guts to do this. If it were someone else, hey, I'm afraid he would be called a liar directly by the people in Beijing."
"I took a closer look at his propaganda, not to mention that after careful consideration, it still makes some sense."
"Mr. Ou, did you buy it?"
The man named Ou shook his head and said with a smile: "I still think the money is safer in my pocket."
Sitting in the corner of the official office of the Ministry of Rites, a middle-aged official named Ge You stroked his beard, then reached out and touched the subscription book in his sleeve pocket, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart——
He was just a sixth-rank manager. He passed by Sitong Bank at noon today and saw so many people that his brain suddenly became hot. He collected the dowry money that his wife gave him to propose to his son. One hundred taels of silver were bought into fifty shares of stock... What the hell, listening to what they said, this thing is really a scam!
What to do now?
How should I explain to my wife when I go back?
Why don't you go to Sitong Bank and return this thing?
I didn’t know if I could withdraw. There were so many people there that I didn’t even ask.
Ge You is really worried now. He doesn’t have much money, so he really saved this one hundred taels of silver through frugality.
The more I thought about it, the more afraid I became. It was a cold day. Although there were several stoves in the official office, he was sitting near the door, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"What's wrong with Mr. Ge?"
"Ah...it's okay, it's okay."
"I noticed that your face suddenly turned pale. Could it be that you caught the wind and cold? Why don't you go warm yourself by the fire? There's nothing to do now anyway."
"It's really okay... Mr. Ou, you said... this stock is really useless?"
Master Ou smiled and said, "Exchange silver for a piece of paper. Silver can buy things. Can that paper be used as silver?"
"But if Xishan Industry makes money, the stock can pay dividends. In addition, Stone Bank does not mean that it will be listed next year... The listing means that the stock can be traded. If Xishan Industry is prosperous, The price of this stock will rise.”
"Do you really believe it? Let's not talk about whether Xishan Industry is profitable or not. This thin piece of paper is not the calligraphy and painting of the previous dynasty calligrapher. Why should the price increase?"
Ge You's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
"Master Ge, could it be that...you bought that thing?"
"Ah, no, no, I just feel a little uncomfortable in my heart."
……
……
Fu Xiaoguan was standing outside the official office of the Ministry of Commerce. The craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry were still working enthusiastically. It looked like it would be completed in less than two days, so he had to find some subordinates quickly.
He has little hope for the officials in the imperial court. These people's ideas are too old-fashioned. The Ministry of Commerce is a brand-new department and needs new people with unfettered ideas.
So he just poached Li Cai, and he directly rejected some officials recommended by Yan Beixi and Dong Kangping.
He wants to select some people from Qiu Wei, who is now finished. If there are not enough, he will go directly to the Academy to select.
The Ministry of Commerce must be established next spring to draft various commercial laws, and he himself...
Fu Xiaoguan looked up at the sky, there were so many things to do!
