The grass in the factory should be plucked

Xie Changan said sourly: "In the future, maybe someone will send a beauty to our Marquis."

Marquis Jing'an is not only "rich and handsome", but also the most trusted and trusted minister of the current emperor. As long as she is willing, there will be many people vying to be her lover.

Jiang Li burst out laughing, put her arms around his waist, and put her face against his chest: "I don't dare to accept it, for fear that the jealous people at home will suffocate me to death."

Xie Changan laughed, hugged the girl tightly in his arms, kissed her forehead, and felt satisfied and peaceful in his heart.

Jiang Li suddenly remembered something. She stood up with sparkling eyes. "Anyway, we are not at war anymore. Why don't we open Longmen Winery first? Maybe we can produce a batch of wine before the New Year."

Xie Changan was helpless, because his little cat slave was a man who could not sit still!

"Can't you take good care of your baby? It won't be long before you become unable to move."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I don't have to do anything. Don't we have Senior Zhu and Qi Tian?"

All she had to do was talk.

"Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is."

Xie Changan couldn't persuade her, so he had to ask people to invite Zhu Gangyong over, and also let the Monkey King Qi Tian come over through a contract.

He and Jiang Li came to the front yard together, and soon, Zhu Gangyong and Qi Tian came in together.

The Wulin Alliance team went to the Western Regions to carry out a mission, and Zhu Gangyong was left in the Southern Expedition Army as a "subject to be reformed."

After the war was suspended, Zhu Gangyong had nothing to do, so he followed the monkey group of King Qi and wandered in the primeval forest every day.

With the anti-poison pills made from Xiangyang grass, this primeval forest stretching for hundreds of miles has become a paradise for monkeys, wolves, and the disciples of Ghost Doctor Valley.

Especially the disciples of Ghost Doctor Valley, they knew that there was a huge iron mine underground, and the imperial court would mine it sooner or later, and this primeval forest would definitely not be preserved.

While they were feeling regretful, they wished they could stay in this forest, search for rare herbs everywhere, and transplant them to the medicine garden of Longmen Medical Bureau.

Zhu Gangyong initially followed the disciples of Ghost Doctor Valley into the mountains. After meeting the Monkey King Qi Tian, ​​he followed the monkey group, moving around in the dense forest, picking wild fruits together, and developed a "revolutionary" friendship with Qi Tian.

The King of Qi even wanted to introduce a "beautiful" female monkey in the monkey group to him, which almost scared Zhu Gangyong so much that he ran away.

After meeting Jiang Li, Qi Tian wanted to ask her to make the decision and arrange a marriage between Zhu Gangyong and the female monkey.

Jiang Li tried her best to hold back her laughter: "Qi Tian, ​​we don't do matchmaking. Marriage is still a matter of tying two families together. It requires both your consent and the right social status."

Zhu Gangyong was horrified. This monkey still won’t give up?

Xie Changan patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "It means that Mr. Zhu is highly valued by Qi Tian and wants to include you in his tribe."

Zhu Gangyong had a sad face. Although he had once become a bandit, he did not want to be a monkey on a tree!

Jiang Li suppressed her laughter and said, "There is an opportunity right now for Mr. Zhu and Qi Tian to work together."

Zhu Gangyong's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly: "Winery?"

"Yes." Jiang Li said with a smile, "I will write a letter now. Mr. Zhu, take my order and lead a team of soldiers to get the grain mixed with wine and wheat."

Zhu Gangyong was very happy and said excitedly: "I am Zhu Gangyong, and I am willing to follow you till death!"

He received the warrant and hurried over to gather people.

Xie Changan also asked the Monkey King to lead the monkeys to pick wild fruits in preparation for winemaking.

As for the site selection and preparation of the winery, it was left to the people of Longmen Trading Company.

Jiang Li asked Qingfeng to ride a fast horse to summon the people from Longmen Trading Company in Shu, and asked them to set up a branch of Longmen Trading Company in Dali, as well as Longmen's new member - Longmen Winery.

After giving instructions one by one, Jiang Li and Xie Changan went back to the backyard hand in hand.

Dinner was served. After resting for the whole afternoon, Aunt Lian finally recovered and began to take over the kitchen, directing the chefs to prepare a table of Yuhang-style dishes.

Jiang Li had been away from the capital for more than half a year, and finally tasted the familiar flavor again. He was so happy that he ate an extra bowl of rice.

If Xie Changan wasn't afraid that she would eat too much, she would have wanted to have another half bowl.

After dinner, the two took a walk in the garden to digest the food.

Aunt Lian looked at the two of them being so affectionate and felt so happy that she wanted to cry.

Zhen'er smiled and said, "Aunt, you cry easily, be careful not to hurt your eyes. You will have to help me take care of the young master in the future."

Zhu Er also smiled and said, "By the way, aunt, the little clothes for the young masters must be made quickly. I don't think the young lady has ever thought about this at all!"

"Yes, sisters Mingyue and Cuibai can't do needlework either!" Zhen'er also said.

Aunt Lian slapped her forehead. How could she have forgotten such an important thing? She was really getting old.

Her little Li Nu knows nothing, and Mingyue and Cuibai were both guards. These three girls got together and never thought about making clothes for the babies!

Maybe he was thinking of just asking the clothing shop to deliver it when the time comes?

It won’t work if there are no elders watching over you at home!

"Let's go back to the house!"

She had to hurry and cut out patterns for the babies' clothes. Tomorrow she would have to go to the storehouse to look for some soft and comfortable cotton cloth to make underwear for the little masters.

Her little cat slave naturally doesn't care about these things. What she is thinking about now is something else.

The Longmen Commercial Bank is growing bigger and bigger. The head office in Beijing and the surrounding branches are fine. Under the watchful eyes of Cui Jue, Manager Liu and Eunuch De, they dare not do anything wrong.

The branches of Longmen Commercial Bank in various places all recruited managers and shopkeepers locally, and they were a mixed bag of good and bad people.

Jiang Li had discovered in the past that the account books sent from other places always had some problems.

It's just that she is too busy and has no time to take care of this matter for the time being. Now that she has some free time, she can sort it out carefully.

"Brother Changan, let's go to the study."

Xie Changan disagreed: "Why don't you take a rest earlier? Why are you going to the study?"

"I said, you write." Jiang Li pulled his sleeve and shook him, acting like a spoiled child. "How can I sleep when I have something on my mind?"

Xie Changan was helpless. He also knew that this little cat slave would act on whatever she thought of immediately. If he didn't let her do it, there would be no peace tonight.

"Okay, don't be too late."

"Okay, finish writing quickly and go back to your room to sleep!"

When they arrived at the study, they sat down side by side at the desk.

Xie Changan unfolded the paper and heard Jiang Li say, "Longmen Commercial Bank is directly under the emperor, and needs a management team appointed by the emperor himself. It is planned to change the name of Longmen Commercial Bank to 'Longmen Commercial Bureau'."

Are they going to transform private trading companies into government-run trading companies?

Xie Changan nodded. Everyone in the world knew that Longmen Trading Company was the emperor’s private treasury and was directly under the royal family.

But now it is nominally still the private property of Marquis Jing'an. Even if the emperor doesn't mind, there will be people who will make a big fuss about it.

It would be better to hand it over as soon as possible and make it a government-run company.

Anyway, their shares are there, so they will get a share of the dividends every year.

Jiang Li explained her ideas one by one: "Cui Jing will be the director of Longmen Commercial Bureau, and Manager Liu will be the deputy director. The directors of local commercial bureaus will be selected from the business students of Longmen Academy, and they will be rotated every three years after assessment."

"Longmen Medical Bureau, Longmen Tiangong, Longmen Military Industry, Longmen Academy, Lotus Building and Peony Building have all been separated from Longmen Commercial Bank and have independent accounting. They are in a parallel relationship with Longmen Commercial Bureau."

"Above all the units in Longmen, we will set up the Longmen Commercial Bureau to perform the duties of supervision and inspection. Brother Yin Jiu, Eunuch Yuanbao and Eunuch De will serve as the director and deputy director of the bureau, and they will be in charge of a supervisory team responsible for auditing work."

"Your Majesty, please make your decision on the above positions, their ranks and affiliations."

Xie Changan was amazed as he wrote. With such a team, the structure was clear and the division of labor was distinct. Longmen Commercial Company was a self-contained system that could almost compete with the other six departments!

Not only did the censors no longer have an excuse to attack Jiang Li, she could also keep the behemoth of Longmen firmly in her hands.

In this system, from the Director of the Ministry of Commerce to officials at all levels of the Commercial Bureau, who is not from her lineage?

Jiang Li smiled and said, "Why should I fight against the six ministries? It would tire me to death. One more thing, I suggest that His Majesty assign Longmen Commercial Bureau to the Ministry of Revenue. Anyway, the Minister of Revenue will be one of us in the future."

Xie Changan understood that she was referring to Cui Jue.

Cui Jue is now the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. When the Minister of Revenue retires, he will be the new Minister.

It would be most appropriate to place the Longmen Commercial Bureau under the Ministry of Revenue.

"Your Majesty, please assign the rest of the Longmen units to the various ministries of the court as appropriate."

Xie Changan suddenly realized that she was not trying to replace the six ministries, but to infiltrate them!

If these forces are buried like nails in various departments of the imperial court, over time, these new forces will gradually replace the old forces, and Nangong Qinghe will be able to completely control the entire court!
