Chapter 47: Business Opportunities Brought by Secret Letters
Because of Xiaolin's storage, Yun Zheng can see a lot of things that he couldn't get in touch with before, such as this letter that was marked as a third-level secret by others, Xiaolin generously let Yun Zheng read it, because Yun Zheng planned to go to Yinxing City to make some money, and Xiao Lin agreed very much with Yun Zheng's request, he really wanted to see how Yun Zheng fooled the Xixia people.
Li Yuanhao is abolished, this is not much news? Yun Zheng looked at the laughing forest in front of him, and felt that the spies of the Great Song Dynasty were all stupid, and after the abolition of a tribe or a country, it was the result of the balance of interests, and he only needed to look at who became the queen, and he could understand that the family or tribe had been reused by Li Yuanhao, or co-opted, even if it wasn't, he could see the change in Li Yuanhao's mentality, and now these people actually regarded such a piece of information as the lowest level of confidentiality, so low that they could show idle people like themselves, how did their heads look?
Yuan Hao's wife, Ye Li, was originally the daughter of Ye Li Yuqi, who was brave and strategic. After Ye Li married Yuan Hao, she was canonized as the queen of Xiancheng, and Yuan Hao was especially afraid of her. Since Yuan Hao married his son Ning Lingge's wife, Wu (Kou Yi) clan, canonized Wu Kou Yi as the new queen. Yuan Hao built a villa in Tiandu Mountain, and lived with the Wu (Kouyi) clan, Queen Yeli rarely saw Yuan Hao, plus his father and uncle were innocently killed, and Yuan Hao took away his daughter-in-law, Queen Yeli fell out of favor since then, so she was full of resentment, and couldn't help but complain. After Yuan Hao heard about it, he abolished the position of Empress Yeli in June of the tenth year of the Heavenly Rite Law Yanzuo and ordered her to live in other palaces.
After reading this paragraph. Yun Zheng sealed the envelope again, and said to Xiaolin with a smile: "You'd better mark this secret letter as the highest level, if those people in the court and there are smart people, they should know how to operate, as for me, I will prepare this year, and I will go to Yinxing City to make money at the beginning of next year, and the things in the court are not what I can do as a small flatterer." Flattery, to put it bluntly, is an official position that slaps sycophants everywhere.
What I see in this secret letter is wealth, and I don't know what the officials in the court can see from it, well, there are a lot of preparations to be made this year, and there are many things. ”
After Yun Zheng said these brainless words, he put Xiaolin aside and happily went to find Lu Qingqing, that little money fan would be very happy to hear the news of making money.
Western Xia is about to be in chaos. You must know that the time of troubled times is the time to make a lot of money, especially for a pure importer like Xixia, it is a good opportunity to make a lot of money, and the wine and spices of the Yun family must be very marketable. When the time comes, the brocade will be used as a tie-in. You will definitely be able to make a lot of money.
Li Yuanhao has never allowed too much brocade silk from the Han region to enter Western Xia, and now I'm afraid it's not up to him, right? A country that has barely been united by force and intimidation has no loyalty to the royal family, Yun Zheng is very skeptical.
The Yun family's liquor is poison to the nomadic people, and once they are addicted to it, it will be too difficult to refuse such a temptation. Xixia women who don't like to take a bath must like to dress themselves up fragrantly, and use the fragrance to isolate the body odor Yun Zheng knows what kind of terrifying smell it is, but the Xixia people will definitely like it very much.
The Han people like to take Suhexiang into medicine and eat it, and Yun Zheng, a Tangut person, feels that he should dilute these solid spices with alcohol and sell them to the Tangut people in porcelain bottles. It must be very profitable.
As for the dilution of tenths, it is still a percent. This also needs to be tested.
Returning to the Yun family's warehouse, he helped Lu Qing to tidy up the silk, touching these smooth silks, and feeling a lot of emotion, why didn't such a good thing dare to be mass-produced? The only reason is that the amount of silk brocade in the Great Song Dynasty is limited, and the emperor even forbade batik, not to mention silk, to buy overseas, the road is too far away, and the Silk Road on land has been blocked, and the Great Song people lack the courage to move forward and lack the ambition to open up the market, so they have to limit domestic silk production.
Yun Zheng felt that it was his responsibility to let the herdsmen of Western Xia wear beautiful silk, what kind of beauty should those red-faced girls who loved to dance wear such beautiful silk to dance.
The Tibetans could not let it go, and since the good tradition of offering hada to the gods and honored guests had only arisen in the past, it was their duty to stir up this trend now and spread it to the Liao Kingdom and the distant grasslands.
Think about it is happy, every herdsman when he sees a good friend, he does not speak, but takes out a beautiful silk hada and presents it to his friend, what a sincere blessing, and then the two brothers sit in the grass, take out a jar of Yun family's liquor and sing praises to the great gods while drinking, what a beautiful picture this is, the majestic and majestic display of the grassland man at a glance.
As for the Yun family, it is just a little worthless cattle, sheep and cowhides, as for someone who is willing to exchange the war horse they don't want in private, the Yun family can reluctantly agree, after all, the well-being of the brothers on the grassland is the most important, and the Yun family is not going for money, but to make friends, that is, simply to make friends.
"Husband, husband, why are you drooling?" Lu Qingqing looked at her sweaty husband worriedly, and asked loudly while helping him wipe his saliva.
Yun Zheng hugged Lu Qingqing and kissed her on the mouth beautifully, and when her mouth left Lu Qingqing's mouth, it made a loud noise, like pulling out a bottle cork.
Lu Qingqing has been accustomed to her husband's madness from time to time, although she is a little shy in front of the insects, but she doesn't care too much, so she heard Yun Zheng happily say to her: "The Yun family is now going all out to spin the thread, and then hand over our silk thread to Jinguancheng Textile, pay them the processing fee, and pull it back after weaving, remember, our silk is not sold, if the Lu family has extra silk thread, remember to take it back, the price can't be too high, I will go out for the New Year, sell all these silks, and open up a business road, if things go well." In the future, the silk of Chengdu will have a place to go. These weavers don't have to worry about running out of work. ”
Just when Yun Zheng was bragging to his wife, Xiaolin hid in the room and studied the words on the secret letter word by word, he really couldn't see anything famous, but Li Yuanhao robbed his daughter-in-law, the former queen was abolished, this is nothing to Li Yuanhao's pervert, he can even poison his own mother, and it is not that he has not done anything to kill his pregnant wife. Could it be that this time it will be different?
How did he see in this that he could make a fortune? How did he see that Da Song had a advantage to take advantage of this matter? The irritable Xiaolin, after thinking about it for a long time, couldn't figure it out, maybe this is the instinct of a profiteer? At this time, he suddenly remembered that there was a profiteer beside him, so he hurriedly rode on his horse, and went to Lingxi Pavilion in broad daylight, preparing to let Hua Niang see if there was any mystery in this.
After Hua Niang saw it, she didn't say a word for a long time, closed her eyes and calculated, her towering chest rose and fell greatly, and after opening her eyes, she knocked on the secret letter and said to Xiaolin: "If Da Song has a heart now, he can divide and win over some of his enemies, this is the best time, Li Yuanhao did something angry and resentful, and now even his own son probably wants to kill him, this person is not far from betraying his relatives."
Didn't the Tangut people listen to Zhang Pu's words and not allow the luxury goods of the Great Song Dynasty to enter the Tangut? Now it is estimated that there will be loosening, what does Yun Zheng have in his hands? Liquor? We all know that this thing is best suited for people in the Bitter Cold Lands, so he must be crazy, what else does he have? Su Hexiang? As long as a woman wants it, but the number of these two things is too small, what is the most in his family? ”
Xiao Lin didn't think about it and said, "Silk! However, Li Yuanhao would not allow a large amount of silk to enter Western Xia, and the trade of silk could only go to Yinzhou Dusi, and the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty were basically lambs to be slaughtered when they arrived in Yinzhou. ”
Hua Niang gritted her teeth and said to Xiaolin: "Didn't they all say that Li Yuanhao was about to betray his relatives and leave?" Do his rules work? Before the next powerful figure appeared in the Western Xia, Yun Zheng would definitely sell the silk to the Western Xia people......
Oh my God, this guy actually wants to use the Tangut people as a springboard to contact the Khitans and Tubos, what is he going to do? No, I'll have to ask. ”
Hua Niang jumped up from the soft couch all of a sudden, put on her shoes and walked out, Xiao Lin finally understood a little, ran out to help Hua Niang set up the car, and after a while, the smoke and dust ran towards the Yun family.
Zhang Fangping stood in the sun, hissing and shouting, countless shirtless soldiers with rocker arms to hang a bamboo cage full of stones, with Zhang Fangping's order to let go, the turbulent fish mouth immediately splashed countless splashes, after repeated labor over and over again, the river flooded the sluice.
More than 30 strong men shouted the trumpet and shook the pole, slowly opened the jack gate on the water gate, and the turbulent river water immediately poured into the water gate, and the waves rushed to the Chengdu Plain.
Some young students in red silk clothes ran in front of the water, and behind them were the raging Yangtze River water in close pursuit, and some of the young people who were knocked down by the waves immediately attracted laughter all day long, and those young people with excellent water characteristics drifted with the rushing water, cursing loudly in frustration, which attracted more ridicule.
Zhang Fangping and Su Xun stood on the sluice, and finally had a smile on their faces, although these water could not satisfy the rice fields of the entire Chengdu Mansion, but they could also keep the summer harvest of Chengdu Mansion and food to eat, and the hard work of the days finally paid off.
Zhang Fangping only prayed that he would have enough time to clear the stones from the river before the rainy season in August, otherwise there would be a big flood waiting for the people of Chengdu......
