Chapter 209 Guest

King Chang Hongquan of Juxian and his daughter Chang Huaiyin came to Danyang again. Chang Hongquan came to implement the matter of Concubine Lian Chang Ling returning to the country to visit her relatives, and Chang Huaiyin, who came along, was purely for fun.

Although it was a very serious official business, Chang Hongquan, who wanted to learn about the current situation in Dongping, had never set up a prince's ceremonial guard before arriving in Danyang, but pretended to be a prominent figure among the Chunnan clan. From Yuhang to Danyang, there was already a highway with sufficient traffic capacity, and the branches extending along the avenue brought prosperity to the road. Before arriving in Danyang, Chang Hongquan did not see much changes, at most, the post stations along the way seemed to be more polite and easier to deal with. The small officials rarely showed flattery to the wealthy families, and rarely had the arrogance and unreasonableness of being a person in the government. However, when they came to Danyang and came to this city that had been separated for several years, they were both surprised to see the changes in the Dongping royal capital.

Due to the prosperity of Danyang, a large number of travelers and vehicles were congested at the city gate to complete inspection of the inspection documents. The collection of city gate taxes will greatly reduce efficiency. Now this series of procedures are carried out in the Chengguan Department specially established outside the city gate. Then travelers and vehicles can directly pass through the city gate through the city gate and enter Danyang with the entry documents. When processing the documents in large quantities, everyone knows how sincere the words "Welcome to Danyang" are in their mouths, but with such greetings, they replace the original scolding and scolding.

, it must be a lot of fun. In Chengguansi, there are people or vehicles waiting for the larger inns, houses, and hotels in Danyang, so that those passengers who are not familiar with Danyang can settle down as soon as possible, and avoid the trouble of running back and forth. After a little inquiry, I found out that it would cost Chengguansi a considerable "management fee" to be paid to Chengguansi. These hotels qualified to set up reception stations basically have a very good reputation, and cases such as killing customers rarely occur.

Also because of prosperity, in order to facilitate traders to trade, Danyang even gave birth to a special business. When merchants enter Danyang, they can store their goods in this warehouse called Tianan Property, and they can carry their luggage to a much better hotel, without having to pay attention to the safety of their goods at all times. For merchants carrying a small amount of goods, or for big merchants with their own warehousing and logistics systems, Tianan Property provides services that are extravagant. But for those who are stuck in the middle, they are not embarrassed.

For medium-sized merchants, the service provided by Tianan Property can be said to be extremely considerate. Merchants can take samples to sell goods. At that time, buyers only need to bring deposit and withdraw vouchers. Transaction records and tax payment records to Tianan Property. As merchants from all over the country gradually become familiar with Tianan Property, there have been several times when the goods have been transferred several times, and the price has doubled or even more. In the end, the person who came to pick up the goods was carrying a thick stack of transactions and tax payment records and a transfer voucher that had been transferred.

As some local traders found that it would be more profitable to streamline the organization and focus on core business, they simply laid off the workers in charge of transporting their own businesses, sold the warehouses used for stacking goods, handed over all the storage work to Tianan Property, and those merchants with stores in Danyang have repeatedly become the final overall sales targets for foreign merchants' goods. Another logistics company was born: the same-city express. The same-city express business was originally mainly used to transport such bulk goods in the same city, which was really a matter of black thread. However, this first same-city express company still had a name "SF Express" that made Ye Tao and Tan Weixin laugh.

Tianan Property and SF Express are just two very small business companies. But when Chang Hongquan half-joking and half-tested the rice paper, silk, lacquerware, dried fruit candied fruits and other things that they brought as gifts, they all stored them in Tianan Property's warehouse. Naturally, Chang Hongquan had to ask in detail how to store, how to calculate the warehousing fee, how to withdraw goods in batches as needed. If you find SF Express to deliver goods, how to calculate the cost, etc.... And when he got a detailed reply in a very short time, not only the storage fee and the procedures for depositing and withdrawing in batches, but also the Tianan after the goods were reduced.

The property will sort out his goods after soliciting his opinions to make room. This not only reduces the inventory costs of Changhongquan, but also makes it possible for Tianan Property to have more space to serve other customers. The sorting process can be done by Chang Hongquan himself or sent someone to supervise it. Tianan Property has detailed compensation clauses for the defilement and damage that occur during the sorting or daily withdrawal of goods due to the inappropriate operations of Tianan Property landlords. Such detailed and rigorous reply surprised Chang Hongquan. I am afraid that the warehouse management of many troops in Chunnan is not as rigorous and standardized as Tianan Property. The delivery of materials in Chunnan is much worse than that of SF Express...

Of course, Chang Hongquan would not react to the name SF Express, unless he had traveled through time. But at least he had some understanding of the situation in Dongping, and he could know what Tianan Property and SF Express were probably created by the very talented Princess Tan Weixin or the same wonderful Ye Tao. Naturally, when appointing Ye Tao as the Yunzhou Strategic Envoy, he did not think of the nepotism of others as the officials in Chunnan. When he learned that Ye Tao married Tan Weixin and was later appointed as the Yunzhou Strategic Envoy, Chang Hongquan often wondered what kind of tricks this couple could do. For Chunnan, even if he didn't know enough about the territory of the Dongping Plain, which was an ally, let alone Yunzhou, which was farther away and more alienated to Chunnan.

"Huaiyin. Don't you want to see your good friend? Princess Xiu is now in Yunzhou. Do you want to see her?" After Chang Hongquan met with Concubine Lian Chang Ling and met with the king of Dongping Tan Xiaopei, he asked this.

Chang Huaiyin turned to look at Chang Hongquan and said, "Father, why are you willing to let me go to Yunzhou?... Can we stay in Dongping for a long time? It will be at least three months after going around?"

Chang Hongquan curled his lips and smiled, saying, "Just go and have a fun trip to Princess Xiu. Yunzhou has beautiful scenery and an endless plain grassland. This kind of scenery cannot be seen in Chunnan. If you want to go to Benlangyuan, just go there. I think Miss Tan will definitely welcome you warmly, and the Dai family and Ye Tao in Yunzhou will definitely treat you well... As for other things, you don't have to worry about it."

Chang Huaiyin frowned and immediately understood. She could have fun, but some of the servants, some of whom came from various departments of the Chunnan court, and some were trusted in the wise king Chang Hongquan's own mansion. They would become Chang Hongquan's eyes and observe the various changes that took place in Yunzhou.

Chang Huaiyin naturally would not be angry about such things. She was naturally naive back then, but after all, she grew up in a country where the struggle between the government and the opposition was much more complicated than that between Dongping. She grew up in such an environment and was influenced by all kinds of things, and she also had her own growth. Chang Hongquan tried hard to ensure that she was not involved in the complex and difficult struggles, so she naturally could not stop Chang Hongquan from acting in various actions that actually played a role in protecting her directly or indirectly.

Chang Huaiyin hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can Ajin go with me? Can you bring Yue'er and Xuan'er with you?"

Chang Huaiyin refers to Ajin as her husband Sun Jin. Sun Jin was an ordinary scholar in the past. He taught children in the clan school established by Juxian Prince's Mansion. Among them, there are naturally royal children with a very high status. It is hard to say that they are very difficult to serve. However, when Chang Hongquan discovered that Sun Jin had a high attendance rate when he was teaching, he couldn't help but pay a little attention to this young man who was a humble man who did not show any performance in the complex and difficult imperial examination system in Chunnan. Then he noticed this interesting person who was very rewarded but could enjoy himself.

Things. Sun Jin was able to explain extremely boring classics and history in a simple and clear manner, and he was full of passion. He had good handwriting, his painting skills were superb, and he even played a good flute... When Chang Hongquan selected Sun Jin into his study and became his aide, many children in the clan actually came to him to protest, which really made him feel a little amused. Even though Sun Jin became an aide to the Juxian Palace, which others envied, he still looked slow, and seemed to be far more interested in Chang Hongquan's huge collection of books and calligraphy and paintings than to give advice to Chang Hongquan.

Hong Quan's other aides were too lazy to exclude him, but Chang Hongquan admired this maverick guy very much. When he found out that his daughter Chang Huaiyin often went to "ask" Sun Jin for some questions that obviously didn't need to ask for, he became this thought... He ignored many aristocratic families in Chunnan to propose marriage to their children, and chose this poor boy, so that this guy who could not even get a betrothal gift married Chang Huaiyin. Chang Hongquan's reason was very simple. His sons did marry aristocratic family, and that didn't matter. Anyway, the marriage was not harmonious, and there were concubines and many...

His solution, but for a woman, whether the marriage is happy is a matter that cannot be solved by conventional means. Chang Hongquan gave up the opportunity to make friends with a strong support and chose to maintain the status quo instead of increasing his influence in the court and the opposition, which really made people who were afraid of him feel relieved. He stayed away from the Chunnan court and took the initiative to ask for contacting Concubine Lian to visit her relatives. He left for a long time at once, which fully demonstrated that he had no intention of controlling the Chunnan government... However, he was Chang Hongquan after all, and he still had to do the research he should do.

Yue'er and Xuan'er are the two children of Sun Jin and Chang Huaiyin... After all, many years have passed, and things have changed like this. For Tan Weishi, who is as big as her, not only has not been married, but also has no accurate news, Chang Huaiyin is so strange.
