Chapter 2304 Commercial Manufacturing Division

Continue to help everyone intercede: "Your Majesty, when the sea-going ships were reformed, most people were really unwilling to join in. The officials in the south of the Yangtze River called their family members to support them. The boat can't go very far, let alone expand the business and bring money and food to Da Chu."

"Oh, you mean, this king misunderstood? Then where did the valuables collected in their house come from?"

"Do you need me to show Qi Shangshu the evidence?"

Qi Shangshu turned pale with shock and knelt on the ground, never daring to beg for mercy for Jiangnan officials.

Emperor Xuanming snorted coldly: "Since the governor of Jiangnan has dereliction of duty, he resigned and stayed in his post, but all officials involved in it and colluding with businessmen will be demoted to one level."

"From now on, a Department of Commerce and Manufacturing will be established to manage all business matters in Dachu. From now on, detailed commercial laws will be formulated and a separate book will be made. Relevant matters will be discussed by the cabinet and the Department of Commerce and Manufacturing."

After Qi Shangshu heard this, he was sweating profusely. At this moment, he didn't understand why Emperor Xuanming just came up with an excuse to start the reform in the whole of Chu with Jiangnan as the starting point.

Originally, commercial affairs belonged to the Ministry of Finance, and there was no special department for management, so there would naturally be many loopholes.

Now a separate commercial office is established, and it will exist independently of the six departments in the future.

In the future, it will not be easy for him to intervene in business-related official affairs. It may not be so easy to take advantage of loopholes.

But Qi Shangshu won't show up to say anything now.

Anyway, Emperor Xuanming obviously came prepared. He had been reprimanded in the first place, and if he came out now, wouldn't he bring all the disasters to himself.

He believes that even if he doesn't have himself, there must be idiots out there.

Sure enough.

Hearing this, some officials from aristocratic families were unwilling.

If they do this, it will not be so easy for them to transfer their family property in the future, and according to Emperor Xuanming, they need to make rectifications, but if they make rectifications, they probably won't be able to make a profit.

"Your Majesty, no, the laws of commerce have been stabilized. Wouldn't it be necessary to shake the foundation of my great Chu?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the laws of Great Chu are now deeply ingrained. If there is no reason to change them at will, wouldn't it be that there will be fewer people trusting the laws in the future."

"Your Majesty, this matter must be carefully planned, otherwise it may cause quite a disturbance."

"Yes, Your Majesty..." More than a dozen officials knelt down, all to make the emperor think twice.

Emperor Xuanming looked at the officials next to him and snorted coldly in his heart. He had completely ruled them out of the idea of ​​the Commercial and Manufacturing Department. Unfortunately, these officials were also dazzled by the rich and noble life. There are gains and losses in climbing.

With such shallow eyelids, Emperor Xuanming would naturally not take a fancy to him.

In this way, I am afraid that his future career will come to an end.

"Mr. Zhongge, what do you think?" Emperor Xuanming ignored these officials at all, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

Mr. Zhong Ge stood up tremblingly, and after saluting, he straightened his back and said calmly, "Everyone, listen to what I have to say first."

"Everyone thinks the establishment of a commercial manufacturing company is too big a move, don't you?"

"That's right, Mr. Zhong, although businessmen are despised, business is the foundation of the country after all. How can it be easily shaken? Complementing each other is the best way."

"Master Lu, I am even more confused when you say that. Logically speaking, you should support the establishment of the Commercial Manufacturing Division more."
