Zhao Zhen stood in the back garden and looked at the music in his hand silently, the news from the center that the Great Song Dynasty actually appeared in the field that was open to the Western Xia, which was really unprofitable and could not afford to be done by a businessman who could not afford to do it early.

To be honest, Zhao Zhen didn't expect that the sea salt of the Great Song Dynasty could counter the green salt of the Western Xia, in his eyes, the sea salt was just a substitute for the green salt in the Great Song Dynasty, but the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty took the characteristics of sea salt to prevent hyperthyroidism as a selling point, and successfully entered the market of the Western Xia people.

Zhao Zhen had to admire the businessman's keen sense of smell, this business opportunity not only sought benefits for himself, but also for the Great Song Dynasty, because salt and iron have always been firmly grasped by the imperial court.

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly bitterly, it seems that the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty are still too gentlemen, Zhao Zhen doesn't believe that they can't see such a simple thing? But only the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty pierced this layer of window paper, and in Zhao Zhen's view, the civil and military ministers in the court were all shrewd like monkeys, and no one wanted to say anything about using sea salt to restrain Western Xia.

Since they don't want to be evildoers, then Zhao Zhen naturally doesn't want to do it, as the king of a country, temperament is a very important thing, so let the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty be evildoers, anyway, they represent their own interests rather than the court.

Turning to Sancai on the side, he said: "Spread the decree, once the sea salt of the Great Song Dynasty is granted to the salt merchants, they will no longer pursue it, and the salt merchants will sell it to whoever they like, and the officials must not stop it." ”

Sancai bowed down and said, "The slave and maid will go to deliver the decree." ”

Zhao Zhen waved his hand slightly, now it's okay, everyone is clean, only the salt merchant carries the black cauldron, but the merchant is like this, it is a common thing to sell at a price, in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, they will also be careful of the sanctions of the imperial court, but when they sell things to the Xixia people in the field, it is not a sale at the price, but a naked squeeze!

Half a catty of sea salt in the Great Song Dynasty only needs a dozen Wen, but to the field at least three hundred Wen, dozens of times the price difference makes all the merchants red-eyed, but salt and iron is the monopoly of the imperial court, if the general businessman wants to obtain the right to operate, he must be recognized by the imperial court and obtain the business brand, otherwise it is to sell illegal salt, and even if he is not dead, he will be exiled to Salmon Island.

For this reason, Cai Boyu is about to break his legs, he is Cai Ji's big shopkeeper, and all the things of Cai Ji are handed over to him to deal with, but now he can't manage Haiyan anyway, how can he not be blushing when he sees other businessmen fishing for special fishing?

But no matter he goes to the third division, or goes to the center, he can't get Haiyan's business brand, so he has no choice but to ask the master Ding Wei for help, today he made up his mind, if Ding Wei doesn't give him the business brand, he will fight to the death, and never leave the three divisions yamen!

The yamen of the three divisions is still the same, a group of officials are blocking the door waiting to ask for money, but Cai Boyu is different, as a concubine, he went straight around the small officials at the door and walked towards the main office of the three divisions, and the old porter saw him stretch out his hand to stop him and said: "Don't break in, don't break in!" ”

Cai Boyu pointed to his nose: "You stop me?" ”

The old porter showed an embarrassed smile and said: "Don't embarrass the little old man, who doesn't know which yamen you can't go, but you always have to let the little old man report it?" ”

How transparent is Cai Boyu's mind? With a roll of his eyes, he said, "Ding Xianggong is planning to avoid it?" ”

The old porter laughed dryly: "Hehe...... Ding Xianggong is not ......"

"If you want to say that, I really want to see, if it weren't for Ding Xiang's bus generation, how would you be here for a long time? Still shirk and say that Xianggong is not there? It's really a fool for me to be a fool! ”

The old porter looked at the official at the door, rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "How about you go to a secluded place with the little one to talk?" ”

Anyway, he entered the door of the third division, and Cai Boyu didn't want to worry about the old porter, so he nodded slightly: "Lead the way ahead." ”

I thought that the porter would take him to see Ding Wei, but who knew that he actually took a detour through the back door of the third division, and Cai Boyu scolded unhappily: "Okay, you old thing, you actually plan to send me away from the back door, do you really want to give me Cai Boyu face?" I'm going to find Ding Xianggong, he will definitely be in the signing room! ”

The old porter's face changed, and he cried and said: "This is a wrongful death of the little elder, when did you come to the third division of the little old man to stop it?" You are a smart person, you can see it thoroughly, this time it was specially explained by Ding Xianggong, and the little old man did not dare to disobey Xianggong's will! I really asked you to go to Ding Xianggong, you are nothing, at most you pat your ass and leave, but the little old man will not be able to live in the future, and there is still an old wife who is sick in bed in the old family of the little one......"

If people who don't know really take it seriously, Cai Boyu doesn't believe what he said.

waved his hand to interrupt the words of the old porter: "I believe others say this, it's not right for you to say that you have an old wife in your family, I heard that the average six-grade official wants to enter the third division and give you some benefits." ”

The porter waved his hand anxiously and said: "Master Ma doesn't dare to say it, if Ding Xianggong knows, the little old man will die!" To tell you the truth, Ding Xianggong said, you can give anyone a brand, but you can't give it to you! ”

Cai Boyu exclaimed puzzledly: "Why?!" In his opinion, as long as Cai Ji can intervene in Haiyan and Yanchang, it will definitely give the Xixia people a painful blow, you must know that the Xixia is inland, and they don't know what the sea looks like.

Once Cai Ji monopolized the sea salt sold to Western Xia, the Western Xia people had no choice but to exchange expensive things for it!

The old porter smiled bitterly and said, "You are obsessed, and you don't look at Cai Ji's business?" The official family itself does not want to be a villain, and it is not for the sake of cleanliness to push the sea salt on the merchant family, if you take the salt merchant brand to sell sea salt, isn't this just to tell the world that the official family agrees to this matter? After all, the official family is Cai Ji's owner, isn't it? ”

Cai Boyu was shocked by his words, it was really true, he was a fan of the authorities.

"These words are what Ding Xianggong meant, right? I know, I don't mix with this matter, you reply to Ding Xianggong, I know the power of it, and I won't do it! ”

"Don't worry, don't worry, your words will be brought by the little elder!" The old porter smiled and took the golden melon seeds thrown out by Cai Boli, and disappeared into his sleeve with a flip hand, which Cai Boli admired.

It wasn't until he couldn't see Cai Boyu's figure that the old porter breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat behind his neck: "This horse master is difficult to serve, but this shot is really generous!" ”

Cai Boyu, who left the Sansi Yamen, felt that Jiang was still old and spicy, Ding Wei even thought that he would come to him early, he was still too anxious, and did not take into account the stakes, although he was Cai Ji's big shopkeeper, but Cai Ji was the property of the official family, once Cai Ji interfered in the matter of Haiyan, the people of the Western Xia would definitely think that the official family of the Great Song Dynasty squeezed the financial resources of the Western Xia through Haiyan.

After all, the generosity of the Great Song Dynasty official family is famous, and the emperor's good reputation cannot be ruined.
