The Governor's Palace of Western City on the Island of Ceylon.
Because this incident did not cause much turmoil, the losses of the Western United Trading Company were minimal. After eliminating the influence of Hu Xian and the Hu family, Zhu Benduan, Feng Xiang, Zhang Yuan and others quickly took over the Western United Trading Company. The entire Western United Trading Company was up and running again.
Xiyang Port has also returned to its previous appearance, becoming prosperous and busy again.
"Not to mention, this Hu Xian is really good at choosing a seat. It is really a pleasure to sit on this chair and overlook the entire Xiyang City and Xiyang Port."
Shouning Hou Zhang Heling was sitting on the governor's chair, overlooking the scenery in front of him through the window, and couldn't help but nod.
"After we go back, we will also build a governor's palace like this in our Shouning City."
After thinking about it, Zhang Heling said to Zhang Yanling beside him.
"Brother, this Governor's Mansion cost more than one million taels of silver to build. What can't you do with more than one million taels of silver? Do you have to build this Governor's Mansion?"
When Zhang Yanling heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
The two brothers have always been stingy. In the past, they often went to the palace for no other reason than to earn money. Now that they are rich, they go to the palace less often, but they still cannot change their stingy habits.
"You want more than one million taels of silver?"
When Zhang Heling heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded.
He looked at the governor's office carefully, thought for a while and said, "This Hu Xian really deserves to be killed. Damn, he took my money to build such a luxurious governor's palace. I am not willing to spend money to build such a mansion. He would be better off." , If you don¡¯t spend your own money, you really don¡¯t feel bad for selling your father¡¯s land!¡±
"This time, our two brothers worked hard to lead the army to quell the chaos. This trip cannot be in vain. This is public and private. One code is the same. We will have a good relationship with the Western United Trading Company later. Let¡¯s do the calculations, military expenses, labor expenses, food, grass, ammunition losses, etc., we must make a clear calculation with the Western United Trading Company face to face.¡±
"Brother is right, I am making a list. Also, if we do not lead the army to suppress the rebellion in time, the Western United Trading Company will suffer great losses."
"In my opinion, this time, I have to at least ask for one or two million taels of silver from the Western United Trading Company to avoid losing money."
When Zhang Yanling heard this, he immediately became excited. Settling accounts was his favorite thing.
"Yes, yes, this loss must also be taken into account~"
When Zhang Heling heard this, he nodded repeatedly.
While the two were settling accounts, Feng Xiang, Zhang Yuan, Zhu Benduan, and Zhang Guangchen also came to the governor's office.
"The lost wages also have to be counted. The two of us are relatives of the emperor, so every minute is worth money. If we waste these days, it's a hundred thousand taels each, not much, right?"
"Not much, not much, add it in~"
When the four of them heard where the two brothers were settling accounts, they couldn't help but look at each other and then shook their heads.
These two brothers really know how to settle accounts.
"Mr. Hou, uncle~"
The four of them saluted the two.
"Hmm~"
Seeing the four of them, Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling immediately put away their ten-dollar philistine manners.
"How are things going?"
Now in Ceylon, the Zhang brothers are considered the biggest, and it is the two brothers who make the final decisions and arrangements for matters within the Western United Trading Company.
"Back to Lord Marquis, all the affairs of the commercial bank have returned to normal. We have also announced the situation to the outside world. The business of the commercial bank has not been greatly affected or fluctuated."
Feng Xianghe looked at the people around him and replied.
"That's good~"
Zhang Heling nodded with satisfaction, thought for a while and asked: "Is there any news from Daming?"
¡°We have just received news from Daming, and we came here because of this matter.¡±
Feng Lianlian hurriedly took out a document. This document was the Charter of the Western United Commercial Bank drafted by Liu Jin, Zhang Mao and others. It was transferred to Ceylon day and night with great speed.
"How did they arrange it?"
¡°Have you already dispatched a large army to prepare to suppress the rebellion?¡±
"It doesn't matter who is here, or what kind of army needs to be dispatched."; In this era, it is an era that pays attention to loyalty.
The ministers are loyal to the emperor, the wives are loyal to their husbands, and the shopkeepers and clerks are loyal to their employers. This is the most recognized thing in this era and society, and it is also the most important thing.
Although Hu Xian was one of the shareholders of the Western United Trading Company, as the Governor of Ceylon, he was not loyal to all shareholders, harmed the public and private interests, and was nepotistic. In the end, he even wanted to monopolize the entire Western United Trading Company and become the The earth emperor.
This is obviously seriously inconsistent with the values ????of people of this era, and will naturally be spit upon by the world. When the news spread back to Jiangnan, the homeland of the Ming Dynasty, the remaining members of the Hu family almost became street rats, and everyone shouted for beatings.
However, the thing that really gets everyone talking is the subsequent system introduced by the Western United Commercial Bank.
The Western United Trading Company reacted very quickly, quelling the Hu family's rebellion with lightning speed, and at the same time proposed a brand new system.
The ideas of democratic elections, decentralization of power, and checks and balances contained in this brand-new system were immediately recognized by people of insight, and heated discussions started. A new trend of thought is constantly brewing and fermenting.
At the same time, many commercial firms at home and abroad in the Ming Dynasty are also thinking about what happened at the Western United Commercial Bank. They began to follow the Western United Commercial Bank and set up relevant shareholders' meetings to implement strict control to prevent similar things from happening.
