After coming out of the hall and seeing no one around, Li Dongyang looked gloomy and walked forward a few steps: "Do you want to lift the sea ban?"

Yan Chengjin's face was frozen, and she was worthy of being Li Gongmou, and she could guess his second level.

"I can't tell Lord Li yet!"

After the sea ban was lifted, I don’t know how many gentry would come to the capital to assassinate him.

He will not reveal the second level until he thinks of a complete plan.

Li Dongyang's eyes were straight, but this boy did not deny it!

"You really want to open the sea ban. Emperor Gao ordered the film board not to go into the sea. If you open the sea ban, there will be officials who will fight back."

Officials and gentry smuggling transactions at the port, and the court turned a blind eye.

The imperial court sent large ships to the Mangala and the island country to start mining. As long as the spices and silk were not sold, it would not harm the interests of the gentry.

Therefore, the court and gentry did not interfere with the river.

Yan Cheng knew that if he opened the sea ban, many merchant ships would be able to go out to sea openly.

Originally, overseas trade was only shared by a small number of people, but suddenly it became a cake that the whole people could share overseas.

Yan Chengjin bowed: "Mr. Li waited for another five days, but the officials could not say anything."

I guessed it right, you are still shirking the blame, Qing'e really can't marry you, Li Dongyang's little bit of good feelings that had finally become tired in his heart suddenly disappeared and he left.

Zhu Houzhao knelt on the stone steps, and when he saw Yan Chengjin, he got up and walked over: "I have calculated it wrongly, it should be 240 taels, and there is still a plate of peanuts that are not counted."

A plate of peanuts, forty taels of silver? Yan Chengjin knew that this guy wanted to cheat him.

The monthly rules given to the Eastern Palace by Your Majesty are fixed, with 200 taels of silver per month, and the sacrificial supervisor keeps the accounts.

Peanuts are extremely rare in the Ming Dynasty, but the price is several times that of peanuts.

However, Yan Chengjin didn't care about the forty taels of silver and reimbursed Zhu Houzhao.

"The father is really good at Master Fei's official position." Zhu Houzhao suddenly said seriously.

Yan Chengjin rarely saw that Zhu Houzhao was so serious for the master of the East Palace.

I guess he was venting his anger for Fei Hong when he stepped on Yang Tinghe. After all, Zhu Houzhao didn't like trouble.

Those who can do it usually do it on the spot.

"If Your Highness returns the 500,000 taels of white notes to me, I may have a way to let Fei Hong stay in the capital."

Zhu Houzhao's eyes shone: "Two hundred and forty taels!"

Who can't afford to put it here? Yan Chengjin flatly refused: "That minister has left the palace."

When he returned to the mansion, Yan Chengjin took out the map and spread it on the ground.

Shipping by sea is not feasible.

When the canal ship goes into the sea, it is very easy to be overturned by the waves, and the cargo ship is empty.

The gentry took this into consideration and even if the shipping was opened, they would not go into the sea, and the problem was still not solved.

Yan Chengjin lowered his head and looked at the prefectures along the coast of Ming Dynasty.

Starting from Tianjin Wei, you can go south by sea, along the prefectures and provinces, and arrive at various ports.

It is even more difficult to rely on land transportation. The infrastructure outside the capital is no different from that before he travels through time.

Later generations had highways, and it was difficult to transport goods from the north to the south. Not only did they have to cross mountains and ridges, but they also had to cross rivers, let alone the Ming Dynasty, where there were no roads or bridges.

Wang Busui was summoned to Yan's mansion with a smile on his face: "Young Master Yan, you are looking for a villain."

"How many big ships will the Chamber of Commerce have?"

"There are ten ships, but there are only six ships in northern Zhili, and the rest are in Hainan." Wang Busui was wondering what Yan Chengjin was going to do.

Yan Chengjin sighed inwardly, there were too few ten large ships.

After a while, he kept drawing circles on the map, circled thirteen dots.

The next day, morning court.

Emperor Hongzhi did not see Yan Chengjin, and Mou Bin reported that this son had been on leave for five days.

"What's the solution to both sides?"

Emperor Hongzhi was a little suspicious of his IQ and was anxious to retreat to the court, leaving the three cabinets in the main hall.

Xiao Jing spread out the map and retreated aside.

Emperor Hongzhi muttered to himself as he looked at the map, and seemed to talk to someone: "They think, what kind of solution does this son have?"

"I guess that this guy should want to lift the sea ban." Li Dongyang hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice.

When His Majesty was prepared, Yan Chengjin said it, so it would not be too abrupt.

Li Dongyang remained silent and paid attention to Emperor Hongzhi's expression.

Liu Jian looked gloomy. The Liangxiang Chamber of Commerce's ship went to Hainan, which was equivalent to tearing a corner of the sea ban.

Now, this guy wants to open up all the money?

Emperor Hongzhi said: "The ancestral system of Emperor Gao made me abolish it and I have very little left. If the sea ban is really opened, what do you think?"

It's a bit like going on and going on.

"The opening of the sea ban has nothing to do with the court, but officials will definitely not allow it. After all, it is a matter of violating the ancestral system." Xie Qian bowed and said in a vague way.

The overseas trade in the southeast is serious, and it is no secret that the gentry secretly goes to the sea.

Emperor Hongzhi nodded deeply with consent.

Of course, he hopes to achieve prosperity, but if the premise is to constantly abolish the ancestral system, it will inevitably be a little shaken.

Zhan Shi Mansion,

The civil servant quickly walked into Yang Tinghe's duty room and bowed slightly.

"I didn't find out the news, but I heard from the little eunuch of Fengtian Palace that His Majesty was discussing with the ministers today, and Yan Chengjin was thinking of a solution, perhaps to lift the ban on the sea."

Yang Tinghe sent someone to inquire about how His Majesty planned to punish him and Fei Hong.

But when I heard this news, my heart suddenly tightened, and suddenly, a smile gradually appeared on my face.

He wanted to enter the cabinet, and Yan Chengjin also wanted to enter the cabinet. If all officials knew that he wanted to lift the maritime ban, they would definitely not support Yan Chengjin's entry into the cabinet.

"Who else knows except Your Majesty and the Three Dukes?"

"Only the gate supervisor and the master of Fengtian Palace." The clerk whispered.

Yang Tinghe is in trouble, how should he spread the news?

Two days later, the officials went to court without seeing Yan Chengjin. After hearing about the matter between Huai and Yang Mansions, they suddenly became nervous.

If Yan Chengjin comes back after resting, he will definitely change the ancestral system!

What is left in the ancestral system today? Sea ban!

Outside the Zuoye Gate, Li Dongyang stood in the front of the team waiting to go to court. The officials behind him whispered, and it seemed that the censors knew it.

As soon as he stepped into the hall, Liu Hongxiang, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, bowed: "I heard that Yan Chengjin is plotting to lift the maritime ban?"

The ministers were boiling like boiled water.

Emperor Hongzhi pulled the corners of his mouth without revealing traces. How could it be spread so quickly?

Li Dongyang sighed in his heart, I wonder how many officials were going to kneel in front of Fengtian Palace.

"Yan Chengjin is cautious and cautious, and has very little courage. Moreover, the sea ban is the ancestral system. Lord Liu is too worried." Zeng Jian spoke.

Who doesn’t know that you are familiar with Yan Chengjin?

Liu Hongxiang's eyes moved upwards: "The way to achieve both sides is to start shipping, commercial freight and shipment, and water transported from the canal is used to irrigate the fields."

All officials are not stupid either. Those who can pass the imperial examination will naturally not be tofu in their minds.

Apart from the sea ban, there is only one way left, praying for rain!

Emperor Hongzhi took a deep breath: "Look at what Yan Chengjin said in three days."

"Your Majesty, you must not open the sea ban!"

Most of the officials knelt down.

...

Yangzhou Prefecture,

Chen Liangfu was in a state of great trouble. The gentry wanted to block the tributaries of the Caohe River, so the people secretly destroyed the river embankment, beating them to death.

Men Zao trotted in and led the flowering house in the tiny house.

"Sir, someone has come to complain again!"

The old man from the fine household knelt in the hall: "Sir, the gentry rented the fields to me, and they were not allowed to irrigate them. How can we cultivate them? They kill and bury them, how can they make such a reason? The villain has no money to pay taxes!"

Without water irrigation, the land is as hard as bluestone and cannot be pulled even by the cattle.

Even if irrigation is done, water is needed to raise crops.

Chen Liangfu was furious and grabbed the gavel and sniffed: "I am sending the order that no one is allowed to move the water from the canal transport. Whoever dares to move the canal transport will be arrested! It is blocked or loosened, and we will talk about it when the imperial court's order comes!"
