Nie Xing held a list of the current wealthy households in Peiping.

Although the construction of the new capital has not yet been completed, the prototypes of various classes have been formed.

The people living in the west of Peiping are all dignitaries and officials, so they are vividly compared to "Western nobles" by the common people.

The new capital of Peking has a court administrative team, including many ministers and ministers, so there are not a few officials.

The East Market of Beiping is a gathering place for wealthy merchants. When His Majesty the Emperor forcibly relocated those wealthy merchants, they landed in the East Market. Now the entire East Market is extremely prosperous, so the common people vividly call it "Dongfu". .

As for the refugees who migrated there, they could only live in the south and north of the capital, and make a living by farming or doing coolies.

During these days, Nie Xing commanded the net to sneak into the East City of Peking and gleaned a lot of useful information.

At least all the wealthy businessmen in Peking are now on this list.

The first person on the list is Zhan Yuquan.

"Zhan Yuquan? This name sounds familiar!"

Nie Datou muttered something in a low voice, and then slapped his thigh suddenly, finally remembering it.

"It turned out to be him, the salt merchant who participated in the tasting event back then!"

At that tasting meeting, King Zhu Gaoxu of the Han Dynasty formulated a system of exclusive supply and sales to the Ming Dynasty salt merchants, which in one fell swoop added a huge amount of income to the court, and it was the kind that could be collected again every three to five years!

These salt merchant giants were not merciless at all. In order to compete for the wealthy land with a large population, they really showed off their wealth to the court.

Wang Fuguang spent a lot of money to capture Yangzhou.

Wang Wenxian was ingenious and took away Yingtian.

These two wealthy businessmen stole the show.

There are some people who are most easily ignored, but they have made a fortune silently.

For example, Zhan Yuquan successfully captured the new capital of Beiping at a not too high price.

Businessmen are all chasing profits, especially vested interests that are right in front of them.

Although Peiping may become a new capital, it has not yet been fully constructed, and the idea of ​​moving the capital is far away.

And no one can guarantee whether the imperial court will really move the capital to Peking, or whether there will be any accidents during this period that will make the capital move a joke.

Therefore, the competition in Peiping was not that fierce, and Zhan Yuquan was ultimately advantaged in vain.

Nie Xing flipped through Zhan Yuquan's resume, his eyes sparkling from time to time.

This Zhan Yuquan is really courageous and has good means.

He was originally a salt merchant in Puzhou, Shanxi. Due to the unique geographical advantages and the imperial court's previous implementation of the "Kai Zhong Law", most people in Shanxi chose to engage in the merchant industry, among which Shanxi Shanxi merchants were the most famous.

Zhan Yuquan is a smart and generous person. He has followed his father since he was a child, and he is very knowledgeable about business.

He pays attention to efficiency in his work, is good at arithmetic, and does not care about the advantages of the knife and the cone. When doing business, he first makes a good calculation in his mind and then makes a decision.

The greatest advantage of this person is that he can assess the situation and distinguish the products clearly. He is an elite among merchants.

Nie Xing nodded and decided to attack this person first!

In the East Market of Peking, a secluded courtyard is Zhan Yuquan's residence.

Although he was rich, he was a merchant, a humble merchant.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, if one person in the family of the common people in the world is engaged in business, the whole family cannot use silk or yarn, but can only use silk and cotton.

Moreover, the Ming Dynasty inherited the ancient system and stipulated that merchants and their descendants were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination. This also blocked the way for merchants to try to pass the imperial examination to enter the court and become officials to change their class destiny.

Regarding the former, Zhan Yuquan has no sense. After all, he is not a person who likes luxury. He has always lived a simple and simple life even if he has a huge fortune.

But the latter's strict restriction has become an eternal pain in Zhan Yuquan's heart.

Businessmen and their descendants are not allowed to participate in the scientific examination!

This simply ends all hope for their descendants!

What's the use of having a lot of money?

Aren't you just a humble businessman who is looked down upon and looked down upon by others?

No matter how much money you make, you will still be looked down upon when walking on the street.

There are countless brocades and silks, but you can only wear them on the street. Even if you wear a plain shirt outside, you will be arrested by the government!

This is a merchant!

A lowly merchant!

For Zhan Yuquan, gold and silver treasures are like floating clouds and have no meaning.

His many years of business career made him clearly realize that money is far less important than power, so he has always hoped to seek a full-time official position, or to cultivate one or two outstanding descendants, and change the fate of the family through the imperial examination!

However, with the clear law in front of him, even if he spends money to smash it, he can't find a way out!

When the King of Han held a tasting party, Zhan Yuquan frantically raised funds, hoping to win an opportunity for his family members to enter the Imperial Academy.

But he never expected that he wouldn't even get a spot in the end.

After losing this opportunity, Zhan Yuquan didn't know if there was any hope in this life to fulfill his long-cherished wish.

When he thought of this, Zhan Yuquan couldn't help but sigh.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Zhan Yuquan's face changed slightly when he heard this. Who would come to visit so late?

"Who's outside the door?"

"Friends."

Hearing this answer, Zhan Yuquan felt even more regretful.

But he was a businessman after all, and what he was best at was establishing relationships with people, so he didn't think much and opened the door directly.

I saw a big man walking in. He was dressed in black and was obviously not a good person.

"Zhan Yuquan, right? A certain Nie Xing, a member of Prince Han!"

Seeing Zhan Yuquan's face turn pale, Nie Xing hurriedly explained and confessed his identity.

As soon as Zhan Yuquan heard the name "Prince Han", he calmed down instantly.

After all, he is now able to monopolize the valuable treasure of Peiping salt, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net thanks to the reform of the Salt Law by His Highness the King of Han Dynasty.

"Hurry up and invite your distinguished guests. It's the villain who didn't treat you well."

Hearing this, Nie Xing showed a smile on his face. The name of his prince is really useful.

"You guys are waiting outside and no one is allowed to break in."

Luo Wangxiaoyong nodded, not daring to take it lightly.

Immediately, Nie Xing and Zhan Yuquan came to the living room and arranged for two more people to guard the door.

Seeing Nie Xing's serious look, Zhan Yuquan's heart suddenly lifted.

"I dare to ask my distinguished guest, this is..."

"A certain family is going to give you a fortune!"

Nie Xing spoke with a smile, and then took out the plan from his arms.

"This is the Peiping business plan drawn by the prince himself. A certain family cannot understand it, so I am going to leave this matter to you!"

"The prince will come to Peiping in person soon and be responsible for urging all matters in Peiping. Do you understand what a certain family means?"

Zhan Yuquan: "???"

What?

Planning diagram?

The King of Han is coming to Peiping?

Why isn't even Emperor Yingtian enough to cause you trouble?

Full of suspicion, Zhan Yuquan took a look at the plan, and the next moment his eyes widened and he couldn't move away at all.

Nie Xing can't understand this plan, that's because he is a pure martial artist, it's strange that he can understand it!

But Zhan Yuquan is different. He is one of the top few among the wealthy businessmen, and he is well versed in the ways of businessmen.

The impact of the business plan in front of him can be imagined.

"This... this is simply unimaginable and miraculous!"

"May I ask your distinguished guest, is this really painted by His Highness the King of Han himself?"

"Nonsense!" Nie Xing nodded proudly, his face full of pride.

Zhan Yuquan: "!!!"

King of Han!

What a great talent!
