Chapter 379: The capital calms down and rises from Changning

After Li Longji handled the matter in Jilizhou, he seemed very happy and talked about several issues with the ministers. Then he left while talking to Gao Lishi next to him.

The ministers who had not left looked at each other. The group of ministers led by Zhang Shuo had heavy hearts, while the people led by Yuan Gan Yao were in a stance to watch the fun.

They also knew that Zhang said that he was in trouble and that once the recruitment of soldiers was destroyed by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, not only did he lose some of the credit, but his power in the army would also decline.

Although what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan do in Jilizhou cannot be imitated, they will definitely find a better solution based on their skills. There is no need to doubt this.

With the method the two of them use now, it is estimated that the soldiers will be treated higher in the future. Even if they die in battle, they don’t have to worry about their families. It is much better than Zhang said that they use money to buy their lives directly.

Zhang Shuo knew it in his heart, but he couldn't say anything. If possible, he wanted to use some means to deal with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan to get rid of the two of them.

But this idea can only be thought about in my heart, and it cannot become a practical action. One is that no matter how old Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan do, the two of them are still children after all. If they attack them, let alone what will happen to the emperor, even the world's leisurely words will not let him go.

Of course, if it’s just someone else’s saying, it’s okay to hold back. The most important thing is that you may be able to explain yourself to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

I didn’t know the personalities of the two before, but now if I don’t know what kind of prime ministers, I have fought twice and lost all of them. With the vengeful personality of the two, I really took action. The most unbearable consequence is the counterattack of the two.

"Mr. Zhang, if there is nothing else, I will leave." Yuan Gan Yao was happy, and a smile appeared on his face and said to Zhang Shuo.

Zhang said that he was in charge of the Secretariat. If there was something wrong, he could also gather all the ministers to discuss it. At this time, when he heard Yuan Ganyao's words that were obviously gloating, he nodded his head twice, turned his body, and walked out with the ministers who followed him.

Yuan Gan Yao didn't care about Zhang Shuo's attitude, but he was already like this. Zhang Jiazhen was taken down by Zhang Shuo from the position of prime minister. Zhang Shuo how could he let others go? Didn't he think about being inferior to one person and ten thousand people?

Now, Zhang said that he had a new opponent, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, to see if he still had the ability to get the two of them down.

"Sir, will Zhang ask if he will use the faults of the Zhang and Wang families to attack them like he did when he was taking down Prime Minister Zhang?"

Yuwen Rong originally wanted to leave with Li Longji, but when he saw Li Longji talking about food, he obviously didn't want to take him, so he had to stay. Seeing Zhang Shuo and Yuan Ganyao's attitudes, he came to Yuan Ganyao and asked.

"He dares? If the Zhang and Wang families want to tell the problem, they are looking for a lot of people, using their power for personal gain, colluding with the royal family, and asking for more than power. There are many more people who even the clothes Xiaobei and the others wore at the beginning can be counted, but don't the emperor know? The emperor didn't say it, nor did he let others say it. Zhang said that if he really dared to attack the Zhang and Wang families with such a thing, he would be dead."

Yuan Ganyao could casually tell what the Zhang and Wang families committed, including Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan conscription in Jili Prefecture. They were not qualified to recruit 30,000, not to mention that they would conscription 100,000 in the future.

It is a death sentence for others, but it is irrelevant to the Zhang and Wang families.

Yuwen Rong asked, and he would feel comfortable when he heard Yuan Gan Yao's words. Not to mention that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan could not deal with it, it would be useless even if all the ministers in the entire court united. The emperor was waiting for Zhang Xiaobao's soldiers to use economic means to attack others without bloodshed.

Following Yuan Gan Yao, he said a few more words, and the two of them came back to their respective homes separately.

Zhang said after walking for a while, suddenly stopped and said to the person behind him who had different thoughts: "Governor Zhang and Wang Zhanjun are working in Jilizhou. You should help more. That is for my Tang Dynasty. You should know that there are Khitan and Silla over there, and the situation is not so optimistic. You can help, but you should not retreat."

When everyone heard this, they realized that they were telling themselves to wait for others. Don’t look at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan who were doing well there at this time. After they violated the interests of Silla and Khitan, the two places would deal with the two together, and let them not stand in the wrong team.

This is also a threat. Some people were immediately scared by Zhang Shuo, while others began to oppose Zhang Shuo from the bottom of their hearts. As for scaring people?

If another official goes to Jilizhou to become an official, he may not be able to resist Khitan and Silla and act carefully, but the people who go there are Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. Will they care?

The blood from the Tubo people was dry, the soil was still red, the spies from the Tubo people ran away, and the food from the Tubo people was still begging them to exchange for the Tang Dynasty.

Will Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan be afraid of Khitan and Silla? One is the master of martial arts, who leads the army to fight thousands of miles, kill countless people, and the other is the master of money, commanding remotely, and killing silently.

Who can move the two of them? Besides, the new weapons have also been transported over. Although I have never seen the gunboat, I think it would be better if the two of them were able to pay so much attention to being transferred from Luzhou.

People with this idea began to consider how to get out of Zhang Shuo's control.

Zhang said he didn't know that his team was no longer as stable as before, and he was still waiting for the opportunity, that is, the Fengshan ceremony was held, and by then, his status would be more stable.

What the people in the capital think is their own business, but some people elsewhere stood firmly on the side of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

Li Yu was one of them. When lunch was almost at lunch, he was holding the letter he had just sent from Jilizhou. He saw it from beginning to end and said to Xiaochuang who was waiting and wanted to see it, "Zhang Xiaobao's revenge is here."

"Revenge? Who to take revenge?" Xiao Chong was puzzled.

"Revenge on the Thousand World Chamber of Commerce." Li Yu shook the letter in his hand.

Xiao Chong wanted to snatch it, but knew that he could not do that, so he could only ask again: "Has the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce taken revenge? They have invested so much money, but now they will make a little more profit than the money they lend."

"That's not called revenge, it's called passive counterattack. The war started by the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce first, Zhang Xiaobao has always resisted, but did not take the initiative to attack. Now Zhang Xiaobao is ready to attack."

Li Yu raised the paper in his hand again.

The little cuckold stopped making a sound, and his eyes were still motionless at the letter.

"Xiao Chong, guess how Zhang Xiaobao took revenge?" Li Yu asked Xiao Chong.

"I can't guess it. If I can guess it, I will become a god." Xiao Chong twisted his head and began to get angry.

"I can't guess it, I tell you that Zhang Xiaobao is going to attack the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce on pottery, and wants to buy their iron wire pottery from the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce, and buy a lot of them."

Li Yu finally gave the letter in his hand to Xiao Chong. In fact, there was no specific step written on the letter, but just asked Li Yu to help contact the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce and ask whether they were willing to cooperate with Jilizhou.

If the people from the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce want to, then send someone to discuss specific details. If you don’t want to, then forget it and find other local people who also burn pottery to buy it.

Xiao Chong looked at the letter carefully twice, but couldn't see any of the plans. If you buy pottery from Qianshi Chamber of Commerce, the people of Qianshi Chamber of Commerce should be happy. Of course, the premise is that the two sides have never fought each other.

There are two types of merchants in the Tang Dynasty. One is to hope that the Zhang and Wang families will come to cooperate, so that they can make more money and don’t have to worry about losing money. The other is to say that they don’t want to cooperate with the Zhang and Wang families because they once planned to be cheated and asked to help them count the money after being sold.

The Qianshi Chamber of Commerce is estimated to belong to the latter type.

"Sir, can Qianshi Chamber of Commerce agree?" Xiao Chong asked uncertainly.

"What's the difference between agreeing or not? The person who takes action is not someone else, but Zhang Xiaobao. Zhang Xiaobao also cares whether others are deceived? As long as you start, it is absolutely impossible to leave others a chance."

Li Yu was very relieved and didn't think anyone could fight Zhang Xiaobao in this regard.

Xiaozhu, who had fought with Zhang Xiaobao, nodded and said, "Indeed, when the young master of the Zhang family moves, it's thunderous. He has no way to stop it, let alone confrontation. Whether you are actively fooled or passively accepting it, the result is the same."

"Then help me get a trip and find President Tian." Li Yu said to Xiao Chong, and then began to write a reply to Zhang Xiaobao, wanting to ask if the two places can unite to develop.

Xiao Chong sighed, mourning for the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce. It’s not good to offend anyone, and he insisted on offending Zhang Xiaobao. Oh, to be precise, he offended Li Yu, and Li Yu has another brother, whose brother knows Zhang Xiaobao. That day, Qianshi is so pitiful.

"Go quickly, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to yourself. This is what Wang Juan said. If Qianshi Chamber of Commerce cooperates well, how can it become what it is now? When I came to my Changning County, I wanted to deceive me. After I failed to cheat, I then wanted to use loopholes in the contract to harm Changning County.

Zhang Xiaobao plotted against him again and didn't know how to restrain himself. He took out money to prepare to disrupt the economy of other local peers. What is this? This is called "I'm not afraid of being afraid of them and they may not come up with any ideas."

When Li Yu saw Xiao Chong hesitating, he guessed what he was thinking.

Xiao Chong agreed, made up his mind, left the yamen, and headed towards the house bought by Qianshi Chamber of Commerce. The houses in this county were also bought in time, and now the price has increased. The emperor came once, and the houses on both sides of the street he was walking through were more than twice as much as before.

At this time, President Tian of Qianshi Chamber of Commerce was a little uneasy, not because of the weather, but because they thought of another idea. He himself disagreed, but everyone else agreed.

So his mood became bad. One was because his decision was no longer fully recognized by the other five people, and the other was that this plan would have an impact on the economy of Changning County. Every time he wanted to deal with Changning County, it seemed that it was not that easy.
