Chapter 128 Emmanuel
Chapter 128 Aura
…
After several discussions were completed, Cheng Wenying returned to the bookstore, where Mrs. Cheng was already waiting.
Cheng Wenying sat down and drank a cup of tea: "Oh, my daughter has been busy these days. Now I have finally settled the matter. This year, the Jiangqing family will work together and make persistent efforts. This is not a salt merchant, but I was forced to become a salt merchant. My daughter guessed
Guess how much our family’s total income will be this time?”
Mrs. Cheng refused to answer the question: "Father, tell the truth. Who gave you the idea to lobby the state government to issue salt banknotes? They also lowered the face value to fifty cents to make up for the lack of change. This market
It suddenly came to life. Later, Lingjing and Jiangqing's family were firmly tied together, and then everyone's cooperation in salt affairs was smoothly completed. In this way, taking advantage of the situation, achieving multiple goals with one stone, and a good plan that linked one link after another, my daughter did not believe it.
It’s your handiwork!”
Cheng Wenying became angry: "Why can't it be my handiwork? It's really my married daughter who threw the water away. You are allowed to have talents in the Su family, but I can't do that...ah, a sudden inspiration?!
"
Mrs. Cheng looked at Cheng Wenying with a half-smile, and Shi Shiran stood up and said, "As for the following regulations, I will trouble my father to discuss them properly with your aura, but don't show up suddenly and then let it go halfway.
Now that this operation has begun, its follow-up will be complicated, and it is not something that an old man like you, who can’t even do abacus, can think through."
After saying that, he walked towards the opposite door, Saru. Before leaving, he turned back and said with a playful smile: "Could it be that the spiritual light agreed to help you solve the problem, but the premise is that you must keep it a secret? Otherwise, he will appear to be too evil, right?"
Cheng Wenying spit out another mouthful of tea that he just took in: "You... you you... cough cough cough cough..."
You are also considered one of the monsters!
…
Su You touched his hot ears: "Winter is over, don't you just get frostbite?"
Atunmi smiled and said: "You don't care how much you earn from this silkworm market, but you care about chilblains?"
Su You said: "Hurry up and go back to do business and pay off the debt. I owe a lot this time..."
Atunmi looked at Su You and bowed solemnly: "Atunmi, thank you so much, brother. This time the Erlin Department's income is too huge. From now on, whenever my brother has orders, the Erlin Department must obey him."
Su You quickly supported Sister Xianyuan: "It doesn't have to be like this, sister, this is a matter of mutual benefit."
Atunmi said seriously to Su You: "Not for business, but because my brother has no discrimination and works hard for us. You are the first Song Dynasty person to treat us like this since the Erlin tribe became Jisi Prefecture."
.”
Su You sighed: "Actually, what Zhizhou said is right. In addition to promoting industry, Meishan also promotes religion, and you should do the same. For example, when you raise tribute, you just don't have the idea of the imperial court at all, and the origin of the Song Dynasty. Sister,
Listen to my little brother and wait a little longer."
Atunmi was a little confused: "Why is this?"
Su You smiled and said: "Are you really paying tribute to the Song Dynasty? Or are you paying tribute for the little profit you can get?"
"There are countless smart people in our Song Dynasty. You are the Duke of Gonggun in the imperial court, but the emperor Shengming doesn't know? Nong Zhigao asked for help four times, why did the court always refuse to accept it? Not to mention his father's crime of betraying China, is he really
Do you admire China? Is it not for the few benefits, or is it to bring the Song Dynasty to self-respect and hope to avoid the oppression of Annan?"
"Once he refuses, he will raise troops to invade our prefectures and counties, brutalize the people, split the land and divide the territory, and establish his own country. How can such an ambitious person be sincere in his previous humiliation and humiliation? Can the Song Dynasty accept it without future troubles?"
"Sister, your Erlin Department wants profits. Now that you have profits, do you still need to pay tribute? If you can communicate with Dali and the Song Dynasty and become a key force in driving the prosperity of the southwestern part of the Song Dynasty, with such a contribution, the Song Dynasty can
Turning a blind eye? Isn’t it a hundred times better than paying tribute in vain?”
"If you want to have a status in the Song Dynasty, you must first become the person that the Song Dynasty needs. Sister, this is the right thing to do."
"For example, after the Hexi Zhe clan and the original Xianbei Tuoba, the imperial court also relied on it to screen the vassal vassal, allowing it to control the prefecture alone and control the northwest."
"For example, in the Yang family of the Yan Dynasty, Yang Ye originally surrendered to the Han Dynasty, but he went to war to defend the country. He tried his best to kill the enemy and established a festival. Although his body was gone, the court also specially raised emblems to express his loyalty, and Taizong personally praised him and his descendants.
Grace."
"Another example is the Zhong family in Yanzhou. After the great Confucian scholar was released, he was promoted to a general position. His descendants shed blood on the battlefield and worked hard. The court relied on him, and now he has become the leader of Fangzhen."
"That's why people don't distinguish between inside and outside, and they don't care about time and time. They only ask whether they have a heart for China."
"The Erlin Department now has the goods that the Song Dynasty needs, and this has a solid foundation. The next thing my sister has to do is to obey the king's orders, fight against rebellion, respect the rules, promote education, communicate with the non-existent, and open up the fiber road.
The wisdom of the people is to avoid obscenity and worship. If you have a Chinese heart, why worry about not being able to become a Chinese?"
"If nothing else, Nong Zhigao is now spreading chaos in the southeast. If the general is interested, he will send many troops from Dali to the southeast to find out the news and grasp the trends for the Song Dynasty. He may even send dead soldiers to serve the Nong thieves.
When the sky destroys this official, he will rise up and attack him. If he succeeds by luck, he will return to the country with his head and present it to the capital. Doing this is not as good as giving a bear a hundred times the skin of a monkey. What the imperial court treats the general is,
Why should we be stingy about high-ranking officials’ generous salaries?”
Atunmi nodded: "My brother is different from Mr. Fan. My sister will definitely bring these words to my father."
Su You smiled and said: "What you just said must take into account the tribe's situation. If you can do it, do it. If you can't, wait for another opportunity. In short, don't force it, so as not to provoke backlash. Let everyone live a good life first, and life will be better.
, speak and everyone will listen.”
Atunmi also laughed: "Just like the children in the Earth Temple, except for the little sister, they are all older than you, but they all listen to you, right? Sister understands."
…
Xianjing, this is the name used by the salt banknotes. It is very beautiful, but it is not an official name. It was really a matter of the Southern Song Dynasty when it became the prison of Xianjing.
There are several large wells, but the current production is not very generous.
This place is about 70 to 80 miles south of Meishan. The salt households dug several large pits for producing brine and put up greenhouses to prevent rainwater from flowing in and diluting it. Then the two of them used resin-painted baskets and tied long ropes on both sides to go out from the wells.
Swinging water.
After that, it is clarified and boiled, and finally coarse salt is obtained.
Early in the morning, the foreman, Old Man Li, came out of the broken thatched hut: "Everyone is up! Clean up the doghouse and cover up what should be covered up. The well supervisor is coming today. Please be alert and finish the work with a few hands."
!”
The Well Supervisor is the top manager of several large wells, but he cannot stay here to accompany the mud-legged people to suffer. He has always been hiding in the Renshou Salt Supervision Center to enjoy his leisure.
It is debatable whether the prison is an administrative unit in the Song Dynasty. The large prison oversees more than a thousand households, which is the size of a large county. The prison chief has to manage everyone's eating, drinking and drinking. Small prisons are like big and small cats.
Three, just collect goods from the surrounding Kuhaha, it is more appropriate to use it as a purchasing station.
Soon, a group of people and horses meandered along the mud path of the mountain, including a small yellow horse with a child riding on it.
This trip was made by Cheng Wenying and his party. The well supervisor took the lead and walked in front with Cheng Wenying: "Si Cheng, the mausoleum is ahead of us."
Cheng Wenying looked at the low thatched shed in the distance and frowned: "Is this a work shed or a residence?"
Si Cheng smiled and said: "It is both a work shed and a residence. The Mudlegs dig a shallow hole in the ground and put up a shed to sleep. They are not particular about it."
Cheng Wenying asked: "How much does it cost?"
Si Cheng said: "The wages are quite good, two hundred wen per day, which is the price of the porters in Meishan City. Inoue also provides two meals."
Cheng Wenying glanced at Su You, who was watching with great interest, and told the boy that the quality of the food was as good as you can imagine. With such treatment, it's hard to believe that the salt workers can do their best.
