Chapter 1628

Now, there is no upper limit. He can explain it to all parties. Then he said to Zhou Ziang and a group of etiquette officials, "let's spread the news, ha ha ha."

"OK." officials from the etiquette Department answered happily. Because they were no better than Xie chongqiang. In a short time, except that Zhou Ziang was not in his position, others received a lot of delivery words. They were worried about what to do. All of a sudden, they were solved.

The news soon spread and attracted the unanimous cheers of all officials. Zhuqi town also learned the news. He thought maliciously, so he sent more people to eat poor Yang Chendong. But looking back, he thought carefully and had to make a rule, that is, each department can only send two-thirds of the officials into the observation group at most. He doesn't want everyone to leave, and there is no one to deal with the government affairs of the imperial court.

It was this will that led to a rapid struggle among various departments. Just for the half of the quota.

Struggle is the norm for officials in the Ming Dynasty. Sometimes when you have interests, you naturally have to struggle, which involves whether you can take the opportunity to develop and become stronger.

They have to struggle when there is nothing. They have to express their sense of existence.

In short, the various and complex means of struggle of officials in the Ming Dynasty are unimaginable to outsiders. Now, with the great good things of this day, the following struggles will not be too few, and there will be no results in a short time. In this way, it lasted nearly ten days. Finally, the winner joined the observation group, and the loser stayed in the Yamen as a job with a look of lovelessness.

The Ministry of rites soon got the list of observation missions reported by various departments. When the statistics came out, Xie Chong was really shocked. Looking at the final result, when there were more than 3600 officials, he stood in place like a crash.

Xie Chong knows very well that this is still a full member of the observation mission. According to the results of his vigorous consultation with Ma, each official can bring three family members. The usual configuration is one wife, one son and one daughter. In other words, multiply the list of 3600 by four, that is, there are nearly 15000 people.

Xie Chong couldn't help laughing at the thought of so many people eating and drinking Lhasa. He thought that this time Yang Chendong moved a stone and hit his own foot.

Zhu Qizhen also saw the name. He was also happy. Then he said to Qian sengbao, the eunuch manager around him, "tell Xie Chong, that's it."

At the moment, Zhu Qizhen is still thinking that these people are only above the five grade officials in Beijing this time. I knew if this could set the grade of officials to seven grade, and the number would at least double, which must be a great financial pressure on the Yang family.

But it's just an idea. Officials of too low rank, even when they go to chiembedded City, learn limited things with their ability. Besides, there are a lot of 15000 people.

The emperor agreed. The list of 15000 observation groups soon reached Yang Chendong. At this time, he was talking with Yu Qian and Shen you about entertaining the observation group.

When he saw the final number, Yu Qian's face turned black.

Yu Qian was famous for his integrity. Seeing the number of the observer mission so large, he began to feel some pain about financial expenditure. Even shen you on one side has an ugly face and some redness. He is blushing for those officials in Nanming. Do you take advantage of it? Would you like some face?

On the contrary, Yang Chendong was very happy and said to himself, "well, there are not many 15000 people. I don't know what kind of influence will be formed through their mouth."

"Wang, what are you talking about?" Yu Qian and Shen you asked curiously without hearing clearly.

"Oh, nothing. Besides, we are all big men's children. We should treat them well. As hosts, we can't be stingy. Two cabinet elders, first estimate how much money they need to entertain." Yang Chendong waved his hand and asked.

Yu Qian and Shen you, who had done some work in advance, had prepared 500000 Liang for this matter. This is already a large amount. But I didn't expect that there would be so many people in the observation group. There were more than 10 transport ships sent. After all, we should stay in enough space and never get crowded after inviting people. Isn't that contrary to the original intention?

"That, two million taels?" Shen you first looked at Yu Qian and then asked carefully.

But after seeing Yang Chendong's slight frown, he quickly changed his mouth and said, "otherwise, 1.5 million Liang would be OK. No matter how little, I'm afraid he won't reach the initial goal."

"No, it's not too much, it's too little. Even if we invite them to come, even if we want them to publicize our five-star army, how can we be too stingy? In this way, we will give you 5 million Liang as the basic cost, which is not enough. We will also grant an additional batch of 370000 Yang coins to ensure that every official who comes can get 100 Yuan Yang coins, Buy what they like. "

Yang coin is the highest currency in the Yang family, not one of them.

In principle, Yang coins are not allowed to be bought, sold or exchanged. There is only one way to get them, that is, when Yang officials pay salaries every month, they will be given a certain proportion according to the size of their official positions. In addition, people who have made great contributions to Yang can get additional rewards.

With Yang coins, you can buy the desired items in Yang's department store in the city. The items here only recognize Yang coins. In other words, without Yang coins, you can't buy an item there even if you take a Jinshan and Yinshan.

On the contrary, the items in Yang's department store are invisible from the outside. For example, the finest cosmetics, exquisite watches, practical binoculars, high-grade Zhongshan suits and cheongsam with unique numbers printed, as well as women's high-heeled shoes and men's shiny leather shoes; There are also exquisite palm sized mirrors decorated with beautiful eyes, and only Mini Buddha statues and Guanyin statues that can be hung on the chest. The more high-end ones range from flashlights and sewing machines to bicycles and battery cars.

In short, some products with low production capacity or laborious production. These are not ordinary mirrors, glass products, soap, perfume, toothpaste and so on, but they are sold only by Yang's department stores.

Many things newly developed by Yang's department store are also put in Yang's department store first, waiting for people who own Yang coins to buy them. When we have a certain capacity, we can export such goods, which will naturally be off the shelf.

Because of this, in the market, the exchange value of Yang coins is very high, often one hundred and twenty can be exchanged for a Yang coin, and this is the price without market.

When Yang Chendong suddenly took out so many things and fell into the ears of Yu Qian and Shen you, they first stared. They thought of Yang Chendong's attention to this matter, but they didn't expect such attention. Only Yang coin took out 370000 at once. Every Nanming official has more than 100 yuan in his hand. You know, even if he looks like two cabinet elders, he only has 100 yuan a month in addition to his salary. As for lower level officials, there are only dozens of yuan, or even more than a dozen yuan in January.

"This is a big deal." after some exclamation, Yu Qian, who has always regarded money as dirt, couldn't help sighing.

Very satisfied with the performance of the two elders, Yang Chendong smiled: "that's right, are the two elders confident of completing the task?"

"No problem." Yu Qian and Shen you got up at the same time. At this moment, their hearts were full of great self-confidence.

Yang Department has made all-round preparations here. In the expectation of Nanming officials, ten modified tourist ships arrived at Suzhou Port not far from Nanjing. Here, a team of nearly 15000 Nanming officials are waiting here.

According to the agreement negotiated by both parties before, Suzhou port is being established, but it is still some time before it can be used. You need to walk through a ladder board to get on board, so everyone should be careful when getting on board, for fear that if you accidentally step empty, you will get your feet.

When everyone boarded the tourist boat, the space inside was spacious and the line of sight was excellent. In particular, a guest room was equipped with a big Simmons soft mattress, which made people feel very comfortable and comfortable lying on it.

At the moment, Wang Zhicheng's ass fell behind the mattress and was amazed.

Before that, Wang Zhicheng had already seen the world. As the eldest grandson of Wang Zuo, the Minister of the Ministry of household, what kind of good things have he never seen from small to large? Even the Imperial Palace and grandpa have been together several times, but when lying on the mattress, he still has the feeling that grandma Liu has just entered the Grand View circle.

"It is said that the Yang family is very rich and the social process is more civilized and advanced. Isn't this a legend?" Wang Zhicheng seemed to be feeling as he brushed the mattress with his hand.

"Bang." the door suddenly opened from the outside, and then a girl about the age of Wang Zhicheng, 14 or 15, rushed in. As soon as I entered the room, I saw him yelling, "brother, did you enter the bathroom?"

"What are you doing? Don't you know you have to knock at the door when you enter the room? It's so big or not small." he scolded, but his words were not heavy, showing his tolerance and magnanimity to the girl in front of him.

The girl's name is Wang Shang, the granddaughter of Wang Zuo Shangshu and the sister of Wang Zhicheng.

Perhaps it was because of the relationship between brothers and sisters. She was too familiar. Wang Shang didn't take his brother's words in his eyes, but continued to chirp, "brother, did you say you had seen the bathroom?"

"Ah? What bathroom? What's that? Is it a person's name?" Wang Zhicheng looked confused and puzzled in his eyes.
