Chapter 190:

Not to mention these, everything is simple to say and difficult to do.
After deciding on the location, the first thing to do is to set up the Shibomen Yamen.
Not only is there a place for daily business, but there is also a place to collect commercial tax. Fortunately, Xue Tingyan was operating Dinghai County according to the thinking of the Shibosi, and it can be copied as it is.
As for the governor's office, Dou Zhun unexpectedly took the position of governor. The decree has been issued on it, and with the formation of Ningbo Shipping Company, everything is cheap.
That is to say, any requirements can be mentioned, as far as possible to meet.
Xue Tingyan's first request was to transfer Geng Qianhu to Guo Juwei as commander-in-chief, and the Dinghai Office was handed over to Chen Baihu.
This is for the future. Although the business town he envisioned has not yet been built, it is always necessary to plan ahead.
Another thing is that if he resigned from Zhixian County of Dinghai County, which had to be selected, Xue Tingyan always wanted to be a virtue and did not avoid relatives, so he recommended Fanxian Cheng.
He intended to choose one from Mao Badou and Li Datian, but Li Datian was in Fujian, and Mao Badou was in Songjiang. Since chess has reached this point, both of them are useful.
There is also Xie San. According to the system, the Bureau of Shipping and Shipping sets up two lifts, one is Xue Tingyan and the other is Shunxi.
Shunxi is a person in the palace, so it is a matter of name, and another deputy mentions one, from the rank of Liupin. Xue Tingyan recommended Xie San.
Xie San has been operating in Zhejiang for many years and is familiar with all aspects. Now that Ningbo Shipping Company is his own territory, Xue Tingyan is naturally impossible to get people in from the outside. Now is the initial stage. It is a critical moment. He doesn't want to be tired in the front, and he has to worry about being stabbed.
I would rather be a little stupid, but the key is not to be unfaithful. Including the two masters of Baohou, Xue Tingyan has now been bureaucratized and filled with duties such as prosecution and censure. Although it is not a serious official body, it is also transformed from the people into officials.
These Dou Zhun were given. Of course, Xue Tingyan did not sell human feelings. He deliberately vacated a few places and gave Dou Zhun to let him arrange it. This is also a vague suggestion that the two are standing on the same boat. In fact, this is all crossing the clear road, including the Jiacheng Emperor. Why did you allow Dou Jun to be the governor? It's nothing more than excluding all external interference and escorting the shipping company.
After a month of haste, the brand of Ningbo Dinghai Shipping Company finally hung up.
The Yamen office is temporarily placed in the Yamen Dinghai County, and the decent Yamen City Administration is still under construction.
The reason for being so hasty is that since the decree has been placed on it, things have to start. Seeing that autumn is coming, winter is coming soon, how can I take advantage of the cold weather, do a good job, and explain to the court.
The news about Ningbo's shipping company has spread all over the country. Looking at the number of businessmen here, it is just now that they are just watching.
Xue Tingyan had a lot in mind, but he didn't pay attention to it, but just released the news. This year, the goods traded under the city's shipping company will be exempted from 20% tax.
This tax is a combination of the customs of Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, and is divided into two kinds of fine colors and thick colors. Fine colors refer to precious products, such as silk, porcelain, pearls and other fine colors. There are many categories, probably there are Dozens of species. Others are thick colors, that is, general goods.
Fine colors draw ten, while thick colors draw fifteen.
It is much more expensive than the goods storage fee charged by Dinghai County before, but it can't stand one, justified.
After all, no one wants to do smuggling. They all have a family and business. If smuggling is caught the lightest is the confiscation of property. Severe beheading is not a trivial matter. Who wants to take this risk. Although more tariffs are being charged now, there is no need to worry.
Therefore, although the merchants who had done business in Dinghai before had many complaints, they were still willing to go the old way. As for the merchants outside, seeing more and more people flock to Dinghai, they also knew that the opportunity was indispensable. No matter what they had done before, they came with their goods.
Dinghai, a small county town facing the sea, flourished in a short time.
Every day, countless people come from far away. Every day in the city, old houses are demolished and new houses are built, a scene of prosperity.
But even more busy are the Shuangyu and Zhoushan islands. Xue Tingyan borrowed labor from the two counties from Dou Zhun and drew the drawings by hand, allowing them to build according to the drawings. One day on the island, it must be not far from the blueprint Xue Tingyan envisioned.
While Xue Tingyan was so busy, Zhao'er was no less leisurely than him.
While helping Dinghai's business to run a supply, she also moved Wangji Huafang to Nanzhili. Although it is not as good as the old business firms that have been operating in the local area for many years, it also has a foothold.
But now Xue Tingyan has become a promotion of Ningbo Shipping Company, and plans to build a commercial town, which is not cheap for outsiders. No, Zhaoer is also busy setting up his own business.
The name of the firm was ‘Tailong’. Zhao Er was originally planning to call Wang Ji firm, but was rejected by Xue Tingyan. The names of the current commercial companies all pay attention to Geely's words. Although Wang Ji is not unlucky, it seems too mediocre.
Zhao'er is now the same as he used to be. He has been a long time among the old traitors and big businessmen, and he is also very familiar with you coming and going under some countertops.
In private, she was given the name of Shibosi, and no one gave her convenience. Of course, she certainly could not mention the name of his wife, but borrowed the name of Mrs. Xue Tiju's maiden brother.
This busy time is when New Year's Eve passes, and individuals come from Dinghai County.
It was Zhao Zhao ’s sister, Wang Zhaodi, who came with his son Wei Wei.
Xue Tingyan ordered people to write to Zhaoer, but within three days, Zhaoer rushed back from Nanzhili.
"sister!"
Zhao'er is a men's clothing. I'm afraid that no one looks like a woman in this dress. There is a lot of suspiciousness. He still has a folding fan in his hand. When he rushed to hug Zhao Di, he surprised Wang Zhaodi until he heard this. Sister, only to suppress the urge to burst.
"You are a stinky girl. The man doesn't care anymore, Hongge'er doesn't care anymore. When you go out, you won't return for a few months. That is, Ting Yan is accustomed to you. If you change to another daughter-in-law, you will be taken back. Road.
At this time, Wang Zhaodi was the same as he was more than three years ago. Although the former Zhaodi was strong in character, he was slightly weak and delicate. Now the whole body is full of the charm of a mature woman.
In particular, since Daojia and Xue Tingyan left home, as Brother Wei grew up day by day, she was not willing to always let her sister-in-law keep her husband and took over the business of ready-made clothing.
It is probably because the daughter of the Wang family has the talent to do business. In the past few years, she has also done a lot of things. She has also established the Wang Ji embroidery workshop. Even with the momentum of Wang Ji Caixing and Huafang, the shop has been opened out of Shanxi. . For example, Wang Jihuafang's business in Shanxi is managed by her and is booming.
All these experiences gave her a smart temperament, which was gorgeous and spicy, as if she had changed her personality.
If it weren't for Xue Tingyan's plan to establish a business town here, she knew that the business opportunities here were greater than anywhere, and she would not lose her business to Zhejiang.
I really miss my sister, but also because of Brother Wei.
Wei Geer was half a year older than Honger, and he had already been enlightened. The child is clever, good at reading, and obedient, but he is introverted.
Zhao Di has been very worried about this matter, but is busy with business. She seriously thought about it, her sister-in-law and husband are here, Honger is here, cousins ​​are in one place, so that two children are not alone.
Don't look at Zhao'er's calm and capable appearance, she rests in front of her sister, she is still that little girl. She squeezed the fan in her face dryly, thinking that Xue Tingyan must have complained.
This cunning guy is usually a generous person in front of him, and he never expected to secretly sue. But in the end, guilt still prevails, so Zhaoer seems very guilty.
"Sister, I am not for the business of the family. Besides, I just went out recently."
Zhao Di squinted her sister's guilty face and hummed: "If it weren't for me to come at this time, I guess you didn't plan to come back for the New Year?"
"No matter what, even if you didn't come, I'm going to rush back in the past few days."
In fact, Zhao'er didn't tell the truth. She talked about a business recently. It was a critical moment. If it wasn't Xue Tingyan who sent her a letter saying that her sister was coming, she would definitely have to negotiate the business before she would return. .
"Hurry up and change your clothes. Brother Hong and Wei Wei will come back later and see what they look like."
See my sister wearing a turquoise blue brocade satin-gold robe, a deep gold embroidered belt, wearing an inlaid sapphire belt, wearing a jade finger on the thumb, and a full-fledged handsome son, Zhao Di His brows were never loosened, and his face was disgusted.
"I don't mean to talk about business too, I'm dressed too shamelessly and people won't take care of me. Well sister, I'll change it here."
Zhaoer hurried into the house, and Xiaolu and Xiaohong fetched water to bathe and wash her. After taking a comfortable bath, I changed into a women's clothing that I hadn't worn for a long time.
Sitting in front of the dressing table, Xiao Green took a rhino horn comb and combed her long hair.
Zhaoer's hair is good, black and thick, and the woman's hair bun is easy to get started, and the man's hair bun is not soft. Looking at the lady in the mirror, Xiao Green sighed a little: "The lady changed her clothes, just like she changed her own."
On the side, Xiaohong grinned: "You can be dressed like this if you get that one."
Xiao Green quarreled with her: "Well, you can wear a men's clothing. In fact, you look like a little girl. But the lady is like a woman, and the man is like a man."
Zhaoer was amused by the two girls and said, "You just said that I'll get it if I don't look like a boy or a girl."
Xiao Green quickly said: "The slave-servant doesn't mean that. The slave-servant just sighs. The lady wears men's clothes and makes the girl's family blush and heartbeat. She doesn't lose anyone when she wears women's clothing.
Xiaohong put aside his mouth again: "Sister Green, don't say that, there are more women who like our lady outside ..."
"What's more?"
A male voice suddenly sounded, but Xue Tingyan returned from outside.
"Master." The two girls bowed their knees and saluted.
"You just said more?"
Xiao Green said: "Xiao Hong said he likes outside ..."
Zhaoer got up quickly and interrupted: "Okay, you go down first. I will do the rest by myself."
Xiaohong quickly pulled Xiaoluo and pulled away her who said that she was unconscious.
Zhaoer looked at Xue Tingyan with a big smile on his face, and asked, warmly, "Why is it so uncomfortable to wear it so thick? Are you hungry? I'll cook for you."
She hurriedly closed her skirt, went to the cabinet and took a robe to put on, and planned to go to the kitchen to cook.
Xue Tingyan squinted at her, seeing that her pale honey-colored face was filled with water vapor and slightly rosy. Viewed from the side, her forehead is full, her eyelashes are curled and curled, and her nose is tall. Because of some tension, shell teeth bit the lower lip unconsciously, making people want to step forward to stop it.
Zhaoer is the kind of person who looks extremely beautiful from the front or from the side. Unlike some women, Xing Yan's eyes are upturned and she looks pretty, but when viewed from the side, she has no beauty at all.
Her hair was slightly moist, and she draped it casually behind her. A good figure with long legs and thin waists, because it is not tied in front of it, the towering arc is particularly beautiful. It's just that Xue Tingyan thinks that it seems to be a bit flatter than before, and I'm afraid it's because it has been for a long time.
"What are you looking at?" Zhaoer couldn't bear the gaze from the side and couldn't help asking.
Xue Tingyan didn't speak, just smiled at her.
"Then I'll cook first. Is there anything to wait for?"
The rest of the words and the steps taken were interrupted by Xue Tingyan's next move.
"You haven't told me, what kind of people are there who like our wife outside? Are they men or women?"
What I said was clearly a full set, but I had to ask it on purpose.
Zhaoer was embarrassed and explained: "Don't listen to Xiaohong bullshit, those are all firework girls, they are greeted by them, it should not be true."
Xue Tingyan's eyes narrowed with only one slit, but his face was even more brilliantly smiled: "Firework woman, ushered in? Wang Zhaoer, tell me, what are you doing outside?"
