Chapter 404: Thief Ship
Zhao Guangmei was busy with her marriage for about a month, and it took Zhao Kuangyin a certain amount of time to sort out the court. Therefore, the two father and son of the Sun family were barely idle for more than a month, and Sun Chunming had almost no concerns about business matters. After all, it was handed over to Han Delang. If he intervened, Han Delang would be difficult to do.
So it is rare that Sun Chunming stayed at home and took out his time to accompany his family. For example, Yang Rong, now her belly is getting bigger and bigger and she is about to give birth. Although she is a concubine, Sun Chunming also cared for her.
Sun Yue was extremely unhappy and started work for Sun Chunming. Sun Chunming planned to establish the initial establishment of the commercial banknote salt during this period. Now he is about to become a salt and iron envoy, which is just right.
Who made him not have a pregnant wife? Although he and Murong Yan worked hard, Sun Yue was still at this age. A man’s 22nd puberty ended. At this time, his development was not complete and it was not so easy to get it.
I was drunk when I asked my son for paternity leave.
Fortunately, this job is much easier than originally expected. After all, although Sun Chunming, the salt and iron envoy, has not officially taken office, since Zhao Kuangyin's golden words have been said, people in the world will naturally assume that he is already there. The Sun family said that there is salt incense, so there must be salt incense.
So Sun Yue called Han Derang and ordered: "Dali has not been peaceful recently. Liu Guangyi complained again, mainly because the logistics supply is not enough. You also know that the court has shortage of food recently. Chu Zhaofu had certainly had bad intentions before, but it was also the current situation. The food in Luoyang City can barely be used for self-use. Hanyang's grain was used to conquer the Southern Tang Dynasty. Not only can it not be moved, but it also has to continue to feed it in. Sichuan and Shu still have some foundation, but the people in Shu have not yet returned. If they are expended and intensive taxes, they will accidentally change their civil changes. As for the north, let's not talk about it. Xiongzhou, Bazhou, Yunzhou, Jinyang, ask for food everywhere, and it is more important than Xiaoxiao Dali. Therefore, the court has no food to transfer for him."
Han Derang frowned slightly and said, "I know that the court lacks food, but what does this have to do with me?"
"My father is about to take office as a member of the salt and iron. Do you think this matter has something to do with my father? Since it has something to do with my father, what do you think it has something to do with you?"
Han Deran said in surprise: "I am not very familiar with the political structure of the Song Dynasty, but I still know a little bit. Raising military rations shouldn't this be the errand of the Duzhi Department? What do you have to do with the Salt and Iron Department?"
Sun Yue smiled and said, "You just don't understand our father and son anymore. With my father's ability, he can use this salt and iron as the three corpses, and do you believe it or not."
“…………”
This sounds really funny, but since it was said by Sun Yue, Han Dejang is so stupid.
The official system in the early Northern Song Dynasty was actually very chaotic because this was an era of pure rule of man. There was sometimes no real meaning for officials to be small. Whose real power depends entirely on who has great abilities. For example, Zhao Guangyi, who could challenge Zhao Kuangyin with the official Kaifeng Prefecture, or Zhao Pu, who was alone, so Sun Chunming changed from Quan Zhihe-Nanfu to the salt and iron envoy. It is really hard to say whether he was promoted or reduced. Anyway, Chu Zhaofu has now evil Zhao Kuangyin, and it is hard to say that he, the three envoys, can still have some real power.
"Well, what can I do?"
"The court has no grain, so I can only buy grain from the people. My father meant to use salt to return grain. You organize and organize the big grain merchants from all over the Central Plains to hold a meeting to see who is interested. They transport the grain to Dali to exchange notes with Liu Shuai, and exchange the notes for salt to attract them. This matter will be left to you."
"I?"
"Is our family the richest man in the Song Dynasty? Of course you are responsible for such business matters. It's okay, I will guide you to do it. If you have one or two times, you will know it. My father plans to make 400,000 shi of salt and replace it with Liu Shuai's 400,000 hu of notes. Do you think there is any problem?"
“…………”
Han Derang is not a fool. He knows with a little bit that it is a political business rather than a business. To put it in a big way, this system is beneficial to the country and the people. To put it in a small way, it is equivalent to fighting with the Duzhi Department. It seems that there is only one Ministry of Revenue Department left in the Three Departments, and there is a Minister of Revenue Department in the Six Departments. Well, he now completely believes why Sun Chunming can use the salt and iron as the Three Departments.
Who would believe that this was just a temporary solution to give Liu Guangyi an emergency response? At that time, the food in Hanyang would not be enough. Should we imitate it? Then, what if it was the northern expedition of Yanyun? In the end, wouldn’t we still help their father and son fight the Khitans?
"What? Is there any difficulty?"
"Why do you have to look for me for this?"
"There are only a few people in the Salt and Iron Department. I have to move here from Kaifeng, so I naturally have to find a general agent. Our family is the richest man in the Song Dynasty and has always been trustworthy. Besides, the wealth and water will not flow to outsiders' fields? If we don't leave it to you, can we feel at ease when we leave it to others? What if we hoard the goods?"
Han Dejang was silent.
"This matter is decided like this. You can see the wealthy businessman and you will be scheduled for the 20th of next month. You think it's time to go, and the location is also broken. Just leave it to your uncle for arranging arrangements."
"Forehead……"
"If you have any questions, come to me anytime, I'll be optimistic about you."
Then, Sun Yue patted Han Derang on the shoulder and turned around and left.
Han Derang looked at Sun Yue leaving almost confused. After thinking about it, he had to go back to the house with a wry smile and prepare to go.
His wishful thinking was clear about the Sun family's father and son, but who had already made him get on the pirate ship? During this period, he worked in the glass factory, helped to manage the Sun family's business, and handle the relationship between various shareholders. To be honest... he felt good.
Who doesn’t want to be alone? Compared with being a slave for their own family, there is actually quite a difference between doing things for their own family and being a slave. Anyway, these foods are temporarily used to fight against Dali rather than Khitan, and they do not violate their own principles. It is rare that others can trust them. Just do it, will the scholar die for his confidant?
Sun Yue suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, the official has moved some of the Censorate. I have a sworn fourth brother named Wang Dan. I will come tomorrow. I, my eldest brother, Lu Mengzheng, and my second brother, Li Bing. We are planning to get together. In addition, the King of Yan is going to marry the princess? We are planning to harm him. On the day of my marriage, this bastard actually said that I was short and I was still thinking about taking revenge. Do you want to be together?"
Han Dejang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay."
