When Liu Jin was found, he was on a stretcher.

The medical students from the Flying Ball camp checked Tianxia's head familiarly and confirmed that it was intact, and his limbs did not seem to be broken.

The huge umbrella cloth wrapped him up, and with great difficulty, someone cut the entangled rope with a dagger.

Seeing Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan, Liu Jin got off the stretcher and limped, "Your Highness, Lord."

He seemed to shout 'eggplant' again, smiling purely.

Zhu Houzhao was gasping for breath, and couldn't help but beam with joy: "Okay, okay..."

He danced happily.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Houzhao said: "That's great, our parachute has succeeded and can be put into use, hahaha..."

Liu Jin seemed a little aggrieved.

Fang Jifan stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "This time, you have made great achievements, and His Royal Highness will reward you."

"Yes." Zhu Houzhao said proudly, "Reward, why not reward? What should I reward?"

Fang Jifan looked at Liu Jin with a smile.

Liu Jin stared at Zhu Houzhao firmly, her eyes shining brightly.

This is his own grandson, so of course he can't let him suffer.

Fang Jifan said slowly: "Your Highness, I think Liu Jin is a talent. He can both skydive and eat. In all dynasties, no eunuch can be so versatile. Why not, His Royal Highness asks for his order, how about letting him go to Xichang?"

West factory...

Zhu Houzhao was taken aback.

Liu Jin also shivered.

Grandpa is crazy.

During the Chenghua period, Emperor Chenghua was suspicious, so he set up the West Factory on top of the East Factory. What he inquired about was to deceive the public, but... the West Factory took this opportunity to continue to expand, and Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne. , but the West Factory was revoked.

At this time, Fang Jifan proposed to establish the West Factory.

Isn't this courting death?

You know, this factory guard has always been responsible to the emperor.

Liu Jin is from the Eastern Palace, how could it be possible for him to have the right to be a spy?

Liu Jin hurriedly shook her head: "Don't dare, dare not, grandson dare not."

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "This Xichang is just a name, you can call it anything, even if it is called the inner factory or the outer factory."

"Of course, its real responsibilities are different from those of Dongchang and Jinyiwei. You also know that right now when I sail to the West from the Ming Dynasty, there are not only Francois, but also other countries that are eager to move. None of the countries in the world is fuel-efficient. In order to protect the air route and clear away the obstacles that hinder our great Ming to prosper all over the world, it is reasonable to establish branches overseas to spy on the military situation, especially to strictly guard against it, just like the last time when the Francopters attacked Xinjin or our Dengzhou. It happened once. Naturally, these personnel must not be active in our two capitals and thirteen provinces, otherwise, they will inevitably avoid some taboos. But overseas, they need someone to move around. Your Majesty has grown old over the years and is not in good health. In the past, it is a national policy to go to the West, His Royal Highness should share your majesty's worries, so I appealed to establish such an organization to share your majesty's worries, why not."

Spy overseas!

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up, and he felt that he had something to do: "Then let's set it up under the Zhenguo Mansion, and call it... called... Layman Factory?"

In the Ming Dynasty, there were many things made by the eunuchs, such as the East Factory, the West Factory, and the Inner Factory.

It's just this amateur factory...

It sounds a bit...

Fang Jifan calmly said: "This name is not good, it has lowered our prestige, we need to be more domineering."

"Then it's called the Governor of the East, West, South, and Beiyang Towns..."

Fang Jifan felt his neck chill: "His Royal Highness, keep a low profile and don't bully my grandson. Why don't you call it the Western Strategic Security Bureau, the name... I think it is."

Zhu Houzhao said complacently: "Guarantee, why does it look like a quartermaster? It's not interesting."

Fang Jifan said: "This spying is a secret. The more low-key the better, there is no sound of gongs and drums. I'm afraid everyone doesn't know. Liu Jin..."

Liu Jin's body trembled.

He knew that this was his godfather praising him.

Think about it, I am still a member of the East Palace, and I have already mastered the power of spying overseas. When the prince ascends the throne in the future, it will be justifiable, and the factory guard will be incorporated. At that time, what will the surname Xiao be? If we want to crush him, we crush him, and if we want to round him, we round him.

Liu Jin knelt down with a thud: "Yes, yes."

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "From your parachute jump just now, you are bold and careful, and you are really a rare talent. Now His Royal Highness is going to give you a big job, so why don't you hurry up and thank him. In the next few days, His Highness will send a letter to His Majesty." Please order, you are in the East Palace, rest for a few days, and wait for the order."

Liu Jin kowtowed like garlic: "Thank you, His Royal Highness, and Grandpa Qian."

Zhu Houzhao looked speechless: "Hey, I haven't agreed yet."

…………

The trading market in Xincheng is still very lively and full of people.

Countless merchants trade here and recommend their products to each other.

But today, there is a special phenomenon.

The Baoding Railway Bureau was officially listed, and began to raise funds from merchants. According to the amount of money, they will invest in shares, and in the future, after the railway is built, the shareholders will participate in dividends.

As soon as the news came out, countless people came to watch.

Not only was there a sign for the construction of the railway, but there was also a notice posted beside the sign.

It specifies in detail how to protect the private placement shares and the various rights and interests enjoyed.

All these shares can be traded and traded...

The merchants were excitedly discussing that they are the most leading group of people in this era, and they are the trendsetters, because they have the widest exposure and the easiest to accept new affairs.

But even so, when it was time to pay, most of them were still on the sidelines.

What is being issued now is 10 million shares, one tael of silver per share.

But after all, real money is needed, and no one dares to take this risk.

Therefore, everyone talked a lot, but none of them made a move.

The news spread like wildfire, and soon... Emperor Hongzhi recruited Wang Bushi.

This Wang Bushi is an expert in finance and economics... However, he is different from Liu Wenshan. Liu Wenshan is Fang Jifan's student. If Fang Jifan's affairs are involved, Emperor Hongzhi is more inclined to ask Wang Bushi for advice.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly: "Wang Qing's family, you have heard a little bit about the trading center."

Wang Bushi nodded and nodded: "Return to Your Majesty, I have heard about it."

"What do you think about this?"

"This is a new thing." Wang Bushi said: "Right now, my Ming Dynasty has a large amount of silver flowing in from overseas, and the price of silver is falling every year. There is more and more silver, so the silver in the hands of many people is also cheap every year. Silver is worthless. In order to prevent such inflation in the future, it is inevitable that people dare not store silver in their hands. , but tends to spend the money as quickly as possible."

"It's not easy to spend money. In addition to food, clothing, housing and transportation, it is to buy a mansion. But this year, the price of the mansion has been relatively stable. Although it has risen slightly, it will not be as rapid as before. .”

"At this time, the rich merchants and ordinary people are holding silver in their hands, but they don't know what to do. Your Majesty... I think that what Duke Qi and Ouyang Zhi introduced is quite interesting. Now everyone knows, Investing in production is profitable, so many wealthy businessmen are willing to invest their money in workshops and share dividends with others. It's a pity... There are two problems here. One, investing in workshops requires sufficient financial resources I dare not imagine that there are not tens of thousands of taels of silver. Second, it is easy to cause disputes. The railway bureau put the shares and dividends directly on the table, and let people buy them. Ten taels of silver can be bought Ten shares, one hundred taels of silver, you can also buy, if you have one hundred thousand, five hundred thousand taels... Not to mention, it can be said that it is suitable for all ages, big and small. If there are more people who buy, they can share the risk together , and at the same time, if you buy this stock, you can support Baoding Mansion to build the railway. Baoding Mansion built the road and brought convenience, so that countless craftsmen can get salaries, and countless workshops have orders. ; and in the future, if the railway can make a profit, it can also make profits for those who bought the shares, which will benefit the country and the people.”

It was analyzed by Wang Bushi.

Emperor Hongzhi kept nodding.

but……

He raised his head and stared at Wang Bushi: "But I don't believe that one thing can be perfect. If so, then the world would have been peaceful long ago. Everything that is beneficial will be harmful. Could it be that this thing is not harmful? "

"Yes." Wang Bushi said: "First, only God knows how the railway will be built in the future. Second, if the railway is completed, the profit will not be affected. I'm afraid that those who bought the shares will end up making clothes for others. "

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Then the Qing family thinks, will there be such a situation?"

Wang Bushi shook his head: "I don't think so."

"You don't think so, is it because you are afraid of Fang Jifan?"

"No." Wang Bushi shook his head: "I don't think so, because it is Qi Guogong, Qi Guogong has a big heart, and the railway bureau is listed. This is the overall situation. He will never smash his own plate just because of this. So, he must succeed."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "You think highly of him."

"It's more than worth it. I have a little bit of money, so I plan to buy three million shares. The cost is three million taels. I use three million taels to support the railway bureau. In your Majesty's opinion, is the minister right? Do you have confidence in the railway?" Wang Bushi said lightly.

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

There was a feeling of shit in his heart.

If you are not an official, you can easily come up with three million taels of silver? How much silver do I have in my internal money?

Of course, Emperor Hongzhi admired Fang Jifan if he dared to spend three million taels of silver to support Fang Jifan's new idea.
