Chapter 56 Reopening of the Four Cities and Cities

Zhao Ji looked unhappy and scolded: "Gao Qing's family, I have repeatedly decreed that I want to cooperate with the Banzai camp to build Shoushan, why do you want to stop it?" ”

Gao Yu was so frightened that his face was like earth, his wealth and glory came from the emperor's favor, if he lost the emperor's favor, he would be one of the others, and it was conceivable where the clear stream in the court would put him.

"The minister was overlooked for a while, but he didn't expect this place to be so important, so he went back to change the garrison and make way for Genyue Shoushan."

Liang Shicheng didn't say a word, Gao Qiu secretly glanced at him, and found that he was expressionless, and secretly hated himself for not knowing to speak for himself at a critical moment.

Zhao Ji nodded and said with a smile: "That's good, Yang Aiqing is loyal to me, I am very relieved, if you have any needs for the construction of Genyue in the future, or if someone hinders you, you can come directly to the palace to play in me." ”

Yang Lin immediately spoke, and said: "Your Majesty, to transport flowers and stones, you need ships and carriages and horses, if you want to not delay the construction period and not spend money on the treasury, the minister asks Your Majesty to attribute part of the authority of the City Department to the Banzai Battalion." ”

"No!" Liang Shicheng interjected in front of the emperor rarely.

Zhao Ji doubted: "Why not?" ”

Liang Shicheng calmed down, just now Yang Lin opened his mouth to ask for the City Ship Division, which made him mess up, swallowed his spit and said: "Your Majesty, the City Ship Division is an important part of the source of the national treasury, and it can provide Your Majesty with nearly 400,000 yuan of silver every year for spending everywhere. If the city is handed over to the Banzai battalion and specially provided money for Genyue Shoushan, the minister is only afraid that the Khitan coins, the military salaries on the front line, and the salaries of hundreds of officials will not be able to make ends meet. ”

Yang Lin sneered, patted his chest and said: "Father-in-law Liang doesn't need to worry, if the subordinate official is in charge of the city, the income of 400,000 yuan will only increase." ”

Zhao Ji hesitated, although he didn't like national politics, but he also knew that the city was powerful. I also knew in my heart that this was between two courtiers, or two forces competing for this piece of fat.

Liang Shicheng is his confidant, and Yang Lin's actions are also very close to his own thoughts, especially the construction of Genyue, which can be said to have been built on his own heart.

There is only one city division, no matter who it is, it will make the other chill, when Zhao Ji hesitated, Liang Shicheng and Gao Yu looked nervous, while Yang Lin looked calm.

Liang Shicheng had a faint fear in his heart, could it be that this bastard with a bad stomach has any backhand?

Sure enough, without waiting for Zhao Ji to make a decision, Yang Lin hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, since Gonggong Liang is unwilling to hand over the existing city division to Weichen, the minister has an idea. ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, he said happily: "Yang Qing has a lot of ideas, hurry up and listen to it." ”

"At the beginning of the founding of the country, Taizu set up city divisions in Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Mingzhou (now Ningbo, Zhejiang), Quanzhou, and Mizhou (now Qingdao Jiaozhou), and now all places have been closed, and only Guangzhou still exists. Weichen does not want Guangzhou, as long as His Majesty decrees the reopening of the other four places and hands them over to the control of the Banzai Battalion, then within a year, not only Genyue does not want money, but the minister will also add a large amount of income to His Majesty's treasury. ”

Liang Shicheng's face couldn't hold back any longer, and as soon as he wanted to object, he heard Emperor Chrysostom open: "Okay!" In this way, Yang Aiqing deserves to be my champion, with the talent of the champion and the talent of the prime minister. ”

This sentence is hot, Yang Lin is not arrogant enough to dare to go next, and said humbly: "The minister is still young, and he still needs to be sharpened, especially compared with Cai, it is still far behind." ”

Out of the palace, Gao Yu was still chattering behind him, and Liang Shicheng didn't listen to half of it.

The city is the source of income for their faction, guarding the vast sea, and making money every day.

In this era, a total of more than 50 countries had business dealings with the Great Song Dynasty in Guangzhou, and they secretly sold some luxury goods to Fanbang foreign countries, which ensured that Liang Shicheng had enough money to feed the group of people below.

In the Huizong Dynasty, whoever had the door to get money for the emperor's entertainment had supreme power.

Later, Cai Jing was able to dominate the phase for seventeen years, relying on the use of the city to make money, and now Yang Lin, this kid, has reopened four city companies with a light word, which made Liang Shicheng hate to the bone.

Liang Shicheng's face turned cold, and he said coldly: "This kid, you can't stay!" ”

Gao Yu, who was muttering, was overjoyed when he heard this, and said in a low voice: "Enxiang, what are you going to do with him?" ”

-----

"Reopen? The reopening of the four states is under the control of the Banzai Battalion? ”

Cai Jing looked incredulous, Yang Lin was secretly proud, Lao Tzu had already seen Zhao Ji's temperament, and his lower limit was that there was no lower limit.

"Okay, you, Wen Yuan, now you kid is going to be generous."

Yang Lin said with a smile: "Where is the grace, the students are just doing things for the official family, but Jiangnan is a good place, we can't give it to the group of eunuchs in the Inner Servant Province." ”

Cai Jing stared at him, smiling and not speaking.

Yang Lin was furious by this old thing, and said to him: "Enxiang, if there is anything wrong with the student, you can directly reprimand it, staring at the student like this." ”

"You kid transports Hua Shigang, and the power in your hands is mostly in Jiangnan, you can let go of this opportunity. I think many officials in Jiangnan are going to be unlucky...."

Yang Lin rolled his eyes, stepped forward and said: "Enxiang has someone in his hands, but he can be promoted in Jiangnan, so he has to be with us to do things for the official family." ”

Cai Jing sighed, noncommittal, Yang Lin knew that this was a tacit acquiescence, and immediately took out a resume from his sleeve: "This is a petty official named Wang Chaoli who will be a prisoner, who has served my emperor diligently for many years, but he has not met Huaicai, and he has not been promoted." ”

Cai Jing didn't look at it, and said, "Put it on the table." ”

"The student thanked him for his kindness."

Yang Lin put the paper on the table, and just saw that on the table was a picture of the rivers and mountains and fishing music copied by Cai Jing a few days ago, this painting was from the Tang Dynasty, but Cai Jing copied a simulation of the founding period of the Great Song Dynasty.

The picture of Jiangshan Yule is a painting by Li Sixun of the Tang Dynasty, and Yang Lin saw that Cai Jing had copied a copy, so he sent someone to buy it with a lot of money. At this time, he said: "Oops! Enxiang's picture of "Fishing in the Mountains" is timeless and wonderful, with a strong pen and steep bones. In the student's opinion, it is not far from the original. ”

Cai Jing scolded with a smile: "A bunch of nonsense, how dare you compete with the ancients, it's just idle to sharpen your pen." ”

Yang Lin looked serious: "This is not nonsense, this painting of Enxiang, in the eyes of students, is indeed far beyond the real thing." In this way, there is this original work in the student's home, if you are gracious, you are willing to exchange this one on your desk, just ask for a payment. ”

Rao is Cai Jing couldn't help but be moved, this kid is really willing to spend money, if he doesn't agree, unless he has a brain problem.

Cai Jing clapped his hands gently, and several maids came in and rolled up the painting under Cai Jing's orders.

Yang Lin held it in his arms, like a treasure, and said with a smile: "In a few days, let the subordinates send the "Jiangshan Fishing Music" to the house, and the students will retire first. ”
