Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 597 Preparations before leaving
Handling inspections, customs inspections and other things are all procedures. With Wang Guoguang, the censor of the left capital, taking care of him, everything should be done quickly, let alone the officials, so there is no need to mention it.

But no matter how fast it is, this process will take at least three to five days.And after three to five days, it is estimated that Gao Yushi will still not be able to leave, because the seal of the Guangxi inspector has not returned yet—the former inspector Hu You is a filial son, and after knowing his mother passed away, he directly hung up the crown and left. All related items such as the big seal had to be sent back to the capital from Kuaima, Guangxi.

There are no trains or planes these days, and the time it takes to deliver from Guangxi to the capital is different according to the different grades of stage horses. According to the estimates of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Officials, the big seal that symbolizes the status of the highly pragmatic Guangxi inspector censor It is estimated that it will take ten days and a half months to reach the capital.So Gao Pragmatism intends to use this half month to arrange some things.

Seeing Xinzhai must arrange it quickly. After Liu Ting left, Ma Fang and Liu Xian both retired and were hired by Gao Wushi as consultants. Mainly responsible for helping Gao Wushi organize the armed servants, so instead of living in Jianxinzhai near the capital, he went to Kaiping.

Originally, Liu Xian took Liu Xin away at first, but happened to take her back to the capital these two days.Liu Xian told Gao Wushi that because the pharmacies in Jinghua began to need a large number of high-quality notoginseng as the main ingredient of Baibao Xuming San, and only the notoginseng in the southwest area was the best, so he planned to let Liu Xin go to the southwest. Contact your old department to see if you can find a stable source of goods.

Gao Wushi was quite incomprehensible to Liu Xian's thinking. It was okay for Liu Xin to follow Liu Ting back to Beijing. After all, with such a big brother around, safety must be guaranteed.But now that everyone from Liu Ting has gone to Yunnan, now let Liu Xin, a big girl, go to the southwest... Is it a little too much, this is your own daughter!

But Liu Xian was very relieved, patted his chest and assured Gao Yushi that Liu Xin was naturally no match for her brother in terms of martial arts, but ordinary two or three small and medium military schools would definitely not be able to take her down, and she had been with him for a long time and knew soldiers well. In terms of matters, if it is only about command, I am afraid that Liu Ting will be inferior to his younger sister.

Just talking about command means ignoring Liu Ting's personal bravery and the psychological advantages that this bravery brings to his subordinates.But even so, it can be seen that Liu Xian has confidence in his daughter. He is a person who has fought all his life, so he should not be blind on this issue.

Although Gao Wushi thought this statement was a bit unbelievable at first, but after thinking about it, isn't the anti-Japanese heroine Mrs. Wa and the loyal Marquis Qin Liangyu also female generals?It can be seen that the ability to lead troops is mainly based on the brain, and it doesn't have to be like Ma Fang and Liu Ting, but they have to go up and kill the generals in person.

Moreover, Liu Xian also told Gao Wushi that he would take the [-] servants around him to Liu Xin. After all, he has the guards of the Gao family by his side, so there will be no security problems.

What Liu Xian meant was that Liu Xin and Gao Yushi could go on the road together, go to Yuezhou Mansion or Changde Mansion in Huguang and then separate, Gao Yushi went south to Guangxi, and Liu Xin went west to Sichuan.

There is no problem with the route arrangement, but the best panax notoginseng in Gao Pragmatic's impression should come from Yunnan. Liu Xian asked Liu Xin to go to Sichuan, which seems to be a bit desperate.

He told Liu Xian about this, and Liu Xian said that he also knew that Sanqi had the best medicinal effect, but his old department was mainly in Sichuan, and although Liu Ting had already gone to Yunnan, he had not been in office for a long time, so there was no such thing The ability to get a lot of Panax notoginseng.

Gao Wushi thought about it, although Gao Dang also had people in Yunnan, but it seemed not good to bother them about some medicinal materials, so he agreed with Liu Xian's reason.Regarding Yun Sanqi's question, it won't be too late to wait for Liu Ting to gain a firm foothold there.

After negotiating this matter, Gao Wushi began to arrange the industrial issues near the capital.However, he found that there are not many things that he needs to arrange at present. The production of various factories and mines has entered the normal stage. At present, there is no big battle in Ming Dynasty. Whether it is iron or coal, the demand is relatively stable, and there is no need to do much. Adjustment.

Things like Tianjin Port are similar, just step by step, at most minor repairs and expansions, Gao Mengnan and Shuai Jiamo can decide, no need to bother him, Gao Pragmatic, the hands-off shopkeeper.

Even including the Jinghua Shipyard in Laizhou, Shandong, there is nothing to worry about now.They are currently still producing flat-bottomed sand boats. This is a type of ship with a lot of production experience in Shandong, so there is no need to worry about being pragmatic.As for the sharp-bottomed sea-going ships, they are still in the technical reserve stage, including suitable wood is also being stored (the shipbuilding wood needs to be stored for several years before it can be used), so no big moves can be made.

Not to mention Jinghua soap and the like, these are all highly pragmatic old industries, so how could he have to worry about it.

However, Jinghua Gun Factory and Jinghua Artillery Factory need to explain a little bit—the main thing is to let Gao Jiongduo contact Wu Dui. His business will definitely need some help from him as a soldier, at least don't be fooled by others.

One thing worth mentioning about private military industry is that in addition to Jinghua Gun Factory and Jinghua Artillery Factory, Daming now has an additional Wang's Arms Factory. The actual owner is Wang Qian, the son of Wang Chonggu.Wang Qian was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Wanli, and now he is the head of the Ministry of Industry. Of course, his weapon factory is the same as Gao Yushi, and his family has children to control it.

However, the source of iron for his family's arsenal is Gao Yushi's three Kaiping factories, and it focuses on the manufacture of cold weapons and armor, so there is no direct business competition with Gao Yushi for the time being.

In addition, I heard that the Ma family in Shaanxi also intends to get involved. It's just that Ma Ziqiang passed away two years ago, and they haven't made a decision yet.

In this way, although Gao Wushi has a lot of industries in the capital, most of them are already on the right track, and he hardly needs to interfere too much, so Gao Wushi is relieved and starts the final "travelling" - in fact, It is to visit the ministers of the Gaodang in Beijing, and by the way, I also want to invite Jinshi who have been in the same department and successfully stayed in Beijing this year to gather together.

In addition, he had to visit a group of his teachers back then—in fact, Zhu Yijun’s daily lecturers from the prince to the emperor for nearly ten years.Although this group of people includes the Real School Party, the Heart School Party, and people who have no clear political inclinations, but in any case, etiquette must be done properly. If there is really no time to visit one by one, they all send letters to express their apologies.

The funniest thing is that before Gao Yushi left, he actually "earned" a sum of money - almost all the officials who had a relationship with him, whether it was a teacher, a colleague, the same year, or even Including Zhu Yingzhen and other nobles with business connections, they all sent him varying amounts of Cheng Yi, among which the least was ten taels, and the most was a hundred taels.

In the end, Cao Ke calculated for him, and Cheng Yi received a total of more than 7000 taels of silver, which really surprised Gao Yushi himself-I know a lot of people!
