Yang Li and his entourage arrived in Shendu the day before yesterday, because they carried a lot of goods, accompanied by Yang Xianzong and more than 100 brave soldiers who stayed in Xijing as guards.

Today, there are many armor soldiers stationed in Jishanfang, and the palace itself is also attracting attention, so Li Tong did not directly summon them and his party in the palace, and could only meet them when he sent his wife back to the province.

"My subordinates meet the king!"

Yang Xianzong walked into the room first, and bowed with his hands crossed, his appearance did not change much compared to the time before the separation, but he grew a thick short beard, which looked more stable and powerful than before.

Yang Li, who followed in, still looked pretty, but she looked obviously thin, and it was difficult and difficult to enter and exit Shu Road, even a man in the prime of life was a little unbearable, such a weak woman traveled thousands of miles, and it was difficult for her to persevere.

"It's hard work, don't be formal, take a seat!"

Li Tong stepped forward to help Yang Xianzong, and looked at Yang Li again and said: "Yang Niangzi went in and out of Shuchuan, waded into danger and hardship, and the courage to do things did not let Xu Mei, this time in the capital, Yang Niangzi should recuperate seriously." ”

After Yang Li entered the room, her beautiful eyes looked directly at the king, and she waited until the cousin on the side coughed lightly to remind her, and then she suddenly reacted, lowered her head and said: "After entering the capital, I know that the king's wedding is imminent. ”

"I'll talk about this later, and I'll let the government staff settle it down on my behalf, and use it for all purposes, and tell me what I need immediately."

After they all sat down, Li Tongcai looked at Yang Xianzong again and said, "There was a murder on the way to the two capitals a few days ago, did you get any nuisance on this trip?" ”

Yang Xianzong shook his head when he heard this, and said curiously: "What kind of murder case, even the king has heard of it?" ”

"It was the personnel of the Xijing case, Dou Xixuan, Xue Jichang and other criminals who were killed on the way. This incident shocked the court, and the prime minister of the political affairs hall and the general of the Southern Ya went out to investigate a few days ago. It is also fortunate that you can successfully enter the Divine Capital, and if it is a few days later, I am afraid that the journey will not be so smooth, or you will be interrogated by obstacles. ”

Li Tong briefly explained the matter, the nature of this case is too bad, and it is still in a certain period of secrecy at present, and it is not as developed as information in later generations, and it is normal for Yang Xianzong and others not to know.

"Is that so?"

Yang Xianzong couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, and after a moment of silence, he said again: "Hou Sizhi has been in Xijing for a few months, and the trouble is also very excessive, and the people in Xijing are often harassed by him. Even our social affairs have been disturbed a lot. In order to avoid harassment by his people, most of the personnel in Xijing were sent out, and they only dared to work hard in the countryside......"

Li Tong was worried that Hou Sizhi would be aware of Xijing's affairs, and he also listened carefully to Yang Xianzong's narration and asked questions from time to time. I was relieved to learn that Hou Sizhi was mainly targeting the noble families of Guanlong during his time in Xijing, and there was no direct contact with the personnel of the Former Clothing Society.

However, Hou Sizhi's tossing also brought a lot of trouble to the old clothes club. Among them, the most important are some industries related to the Dou family, Hou Sizhi bit the Dou family and did not relax, many of them were implicated, so the clothing club had to take the initiative to give up in order to keep a low profile and forbearance.

Hearing Yang Xianzong's narration and the list of losses submitted, Li Tong also secretly hated in his heart, and secretly decided in his heart that after Hou Sizhi was escorted back to Shendu, on the premise of not exposing himself, he must add fuel to the fire to this guy, the-stirring stick is really annoying!

However, in addition to these, the overall development of the old clothing club has not been greatly affected.

Eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, because of the existence of the group of Guan Longxungui, several emperors, personnel disputes are complex and profound, far from Hou Sizhi A cool official can be clarified in a very short time.

Compared with the fortunes and misfortunes of those prominent families on the table, these actions made by the Clothing Society in the grass and fields are not worthy of the attention of the upper echelons.

After learning about this, Li Tong secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

No matter how the situation develops in the future, these grass and field forces of the Clothing Society are an important foundation for him to be able to gain a foothold in Guanzhong and develop in-depth in the future.

There were also some more confidential contents, which Yang Xianzong did not carefully explain in front of Yang Li, but recorded them in detail and submitted them in the document for the king to read and understand carefully. It's not deliberately concealed, it's just that it doesn't make sense for Yang Li to understand this, and one more person knows about it.

It wasn't until Yang Xianzong finished telling that Yang Li began her report.

When she returned to Shuzhong a few days ago, she mainly built the flying money business of Baoli Agency. Since Li Tong handed over this business after returning to the capital, his eldest brother Li Guangshun went to Shuzhong as an official envoy, and with a background in Da Nei, his credit was undoubtedly more secure.

In the second half of last year, the exchange of flying money began to be officially operated, and the amount of the first flying money bill issued in Chang'an, Xijing, was only 100,000 yuan or 100,000 yuan. When this flying money bill was successfully redeemed in Chengdu, it caused an uproar in the entire Shu merchant group.

In just over a month, the Baoli Club in Chengdu City has absorbed more than one million dollars, more than one billion dollars!

After that, Xijing also undertook great exchange pressure, and in the following more than a month, nearly one million yuan was accepted and paid one after another, and the Wuyou IKEA wealth as a reserve could not even be realized.

After proving that the company has sufficient acceptance capacity, the subsequent development of things is on the right track.

Although the pressure of acceptance is still very great, many businessmen often choose to transfer back after the successful cashing of the flying money, after all, it is really inconvenient to carry a large amount of money with them.

"Now the two places in Xijing and Chengdu have opened the cabinet and the money has reached more than 4 million yuan, and the wealth accumulated in the warehouse is more than 6 million yuan, and the business is not in a short time, and the profit has been more than 1.5 million yuan!"

When Yang Li talked about these data, she was so excited that her pretty face was full of energy, and her eyes were full of worship for the king. Although she has also shown many business talents since she took charge of the family, she never dreamed that the development of a new business would be so profitable in such a short period of time.

"There are so many?"

Li Tong was also shocked when he heard this data, and took the account book submitted by Yang Li in disbelief, carefully looked through it to confirm, and only after a long time did he close the volume and sighed: "The hero of Shu merchants really lives up to its reputation!" ”

It's not that he hasn't seen money, but the wealth of Shu merchants has really refreshed his three views. There are more than 1,000 merchants listed in the account books who use flying money business, although they are also related to the central region, but the main body is still Shu merchants.

These merchants save as little as hundreds of dollars, and as many as thousands or even tens of thousands, and of course this cannot be all their property, but the living money that needs to be invested on the trade road of Xijing has already supported such a huge volume!

With such a blowout of business, it is natural that Shu merchants are really fucking rich, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are rich enough to rival the country. The second is also the difficulty of Shu Dao, and suddenly there is such a convenient method, and the demand naturally explodes.

Of course, there is one of the most important reasons, that is, with the background of Ouchi as a credit guarantee, the business can be expanded in such a short period of time. If you only rely on the fermentation of credit and word-of-mouth, although the business will develop rapidly, it will definitely not reach such an astonishing extent.

After being shocked, Li Tong couldn't help but feel distressed, with an income of more than 1.5 million yuan, if all this money was his, there would be too many things that could be done! But now, it's all his grandmother's.

The flying money business has just been launched, and the profit is extremely high, basically with a net profit of two to three percent, which has almost caught up with the loss of the merchant's personal escort of goods in and out.

But you must know that flying money provides not only convenience, but also security, which can avoid being robbed by bandits along the way, so although the profit is very large, it is still worth paying for the merchants.

However, as this model is polished and matured, the profit will definitely be reduced one after another. If the handling fee remains high, it will naturally attract other private capital to intervene and participate in the competition. But even if it continues to decline in the future, profits will definitely continue to climb as the volume increases.

More than 1.5 million, which is definitely a staggering number. It should be noted that the annual rent adjustment of the imperial court is only a little more than 2 million, and the new tax income is only more than 1 million, which is already necessary to maintain the operation of the entire ruling structure. Even if it is Wu Zetian, he will definitely lose his big teeth after seeing this number.

"Mrs. Yang will prepare recently, and I will choose the time to introduce you to the palace to face the saint."

Li Tong thought about it for a long time, but still gave up his plan to fill his pocket. In the current situation, the stability of the political situation is more than the mere income of money and goods for him.

The flying money business is so amazing that it will definitely arouse the covetousness of others, and he first needs to ensure that this financial route is controlled by their brothers, so as to increase their voice, there is no need to expose greed at the beginning and be attacked.

Only when the political situation is more calm will he have the opportunity and time to slowly transform the numbers on his books into a tangible and controllable force. Therefore, at present, it is very necessary to have clear and frank accounts, and not to be greedy for short-term profits.

Even if someone wanted to take it away from their brother, his grandmother would have to think carefully about whether his successor would be as capable and disciplined as their brother. Ordinary ministers should not take this matter lightly, and if they handed over the goods to the samurai, it would be tantamount to a mouse falling into a rice vat.

"I—I want to face the saint? A concubine and a rural girl, how dare and ......"

When Yang Li heard this, she immediately became nervous, although she had the courage to be inferior, but when she thought of facing the supreme emperor of the world, she was also very worried in her heart.
