Long live the twentieth day of the first month of the first year of Dengfeng, and the director of the Wuhou Dynasty.

There are supervising the imperial history, impeaching the power to coerce the foreign domain, and acting as a prestige, causing the foreign domain to obstruct and deviate from the Celestial Empire.

Empress Wu sneered, ignored it, and ordered to retreat.

Probably this was also a tentative move, and if it failed to make a contribution, it died down.

Empress Wu mentioned that the king of Hanoi, Wu Yizong, was in vain, and the post of Xia Guanshangshu was vacant, and the crown prince Zhongyun Yuan Shuji was appointed as the inspector of Xia Guanshangshu, and temporarily took charge of military affairs.

As soon as these words came out, the court was quiet, and Yuan Shuji could be regarded as the most dramatic court official with the ebb and flow of the tide.

On the eve of Li Dan's expedition to the west, in order to befriend Zhang Yizhi and make room for Cen Xi, Yuan Shuji was delegated to serve as Weiwei Siqing.

Clear-eyed people know that this is created by the times, and the Empress Wu is obviously not happy to see the newly established prince of the East Palace grow too fast, and he has made enemies.

"Zhu Qing can have a discussion" took care of the matter, and the Empress Wu brushed his sleeves and asked the government.

The local officials and servants played on the top of Zhang Khan, the caravans of the foreign domains of the Great Zhou Dynasty were frequent, the business was prosperous, and there were no less than hundreds of thousands of people who depended on their livelihoods, and there were millions of people who were related, which were related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and the imperial court managed foreign trade, which was loose and inconsistent, and each did its own thing, and there were many treacherous merchants who took advantage of it and plundered it, and there were also many treacherous officials who went up and down to embezzle people's property, and there were more unscrupulous people, who communicated with foreign countries and trapped, and played to set up a trade bureau, which was directly under the Shangshu Province, and managed foreign trade affairs, issued foreign trade licenses, and determined the trade objects and quotas of the feudal domains, in order to benefit the country and the people.

Empress Wu frowned slightly, this is something that Quan Ce has already mentioned, but the matter of leading the army to recruit and transfer foreign vassal Ding Zhuang has not yet been settled, and at this time, he proposed foreign trade reform, wouldn't it be a little chaotic?

"Zhuqing, do you have any suggestions?"

"Your Majesty, the minister opposes" Prime Minister Dou Lu Qinwang took the lead in the ranks, and his hair was all open, and his emotions were intense, "The minister thinks that the activity of commerce and trade, the prevalence of businessmen, the poison is not shallow, the people are mercenary, the world is deceitful, there is no great benefit to the country, but there is great harm, but it is not easy to think of the survival of foreign domains, so it is convenient to open the door, and let it continue a little, but it is expected that the scale is getting bigger and bigger, and there are many people who operate cheap industries, and there are people who hurt the root of agriculture and mulberry, and they should be regulated and suppressed, and they should not be encouraged to do anything in vain, so they will be arrogant and arrogant"

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal, the scale of foreign trade is huge, the issuance of licenses and control, the waste of manpower, if the central government is in charge, it will make the imperial court copper smell all over, detrimental to the prestige of the imperial court" This is Wang Tongjiao, from the Luling Wangfu to join the army, a leap into the court, for the autumn official Lang, he seems to have completely forgotten the imperial court to collect taxes, but also forgot that the imperial court was once affected by the Jiangnan Road last year, the treasury was empty, and all the temples had fought for money.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this matter is feasible, but it should be postponed, after all, it is a major matter, hindering the national economy and people's livelihood, sorting out the various yamen cadres and setting up branches, should be cautious, not appropriate, can be achieved within a year and a half, so as not to make mistakes in the busy" Tianguan Shangshuzong Qin Ke used the procrastination trick, as a greedy court official, he did not have the pedantic temperament of the previous two, to a certain extent, he supported the establishment of the Commerce Mansion, but it could not be set up under the sudden attack of Zhang Cambodia, he had to get a piece of the pie.

"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't think so" Zuo Sanqi Chang Shi Jinghui stood up and refuted the argument of Zong Qinke, "The establishment of the trade and commerce government is mainly responsible for the outside, not the inside, the Celestial Empire is rich in products, the country is strong and the people are rich, and foreign trade can be sorted out, which can enhance national strength, control chaos, regulate and control interest, and can also benefit merchants and indirectly benefit the people, this matter should be implemented as soon as possible, and it should not be delayed for a long time."

"Your Majesty, the minister has counted the Taifu Temple City Yi Bureau, Honglu Temple Pavilion Post Commerce Division and the Ya City Shipping Division and other powers, although the portal is different, but each has its own focus, the City Yi Department to stabilize prices, manage the big city, branches concentrated in the three capitals, the Pavilion Post Commerce Division is responsible for the management of foreign merchants, densely spread in the traffic arteries, the most branches, the City Ship Division is responsible for sea trade, branches are mostly located in the coastal commercial port, the integration of the three, strengthen its responsibilities, unify its functions, then get twice the result with half the effort......" The local official Shangshu Wuyu and a long speech, directly cut into the operational level.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it may be necessary to set up a trade mansion" Liang Wang Wu thought for a long time before stepping out of the ranks, and his words were cautious, "However, this mansion is related to foreign vassals, and it is involved in wealth, and it can influence the local area even more, and the authority is very large, and it is necessary to find a proper person to take charge of its affairs, hehe"

Wu Sansi snorted, and turned his head to look at Quan Ce behind him, "But it is difficult to find talents, if Quan Shilang leaves Luantai and goes to preside over the Commerce Mansion, it is appropriate."

Quan Ce glanced at him, smiled and arched his hand, "His Royal Highness King Liang has a good reputation"

But it was noncommittal.

Wu Sansi chuckled in his heart, squeezed out a smile, and returned to the train, saying no more.

Intuition told him that Quan Ce's movements were wrong, and there must be an inside story in the meantime, maybe it was the relationship on the dragon chair, and it was harmful and unprofitable.

Wu Sansi retreated, and Zong Qinke still refused to give up, "Your Majesty, as Zhang Shilang said, in the territory of the Great Zhou, there are no less than 100,000 merchants, and the merchants are cunning, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to complete the issuance of licenses in a short period of time......."

"Your Majesty, this matter is not difficult, it can be tied to the customs clearance documents, and if the license is not reexamined, the documents will not be issued, and you will have your own" Yao Chong, the local official, replied unceremoniously.

"Even so, there are many outer domains, both long and short, and there are many tribes inside, how do you determine who to trade with? Isn't it good to be careful in order to be right? Zong Qinke asked again.

Quan Ce personally stood up and said with a smile, "Zong Shangshu is right, this official happens to have a ruler, leading the army to recruit soldiers, and the foreign domain takes the initiative to serve, and is willing to sacrifice warriors, and measure its national strength with the strength of the six divisions, and it is not difficult to distinguish the meaning of its loyalty."

"It's rare for Zong Shangshu to be so dedicated to the government, but there are still doubts?"

Zong Qinke opened his mouth and stammered, his face flushed, and he couldn't answer correctly.

The ministers were silent.

Wu Sansi snorted coldly, thanks to the fact that the king saw the opportunity early, he knew that the demon of Quan Ce had a backhand, but it turned out that the layout started from the time of collecting tribute from the foreign domain, and he was really a scheming moth.

"Hehe" Empress Wu smiled softly, and a trace of feeling flashed in her heart, is she getting old, or is the younger generation growing up too fast? Unconsciously, she couldn't predict Quan Ce's tricks, and with a little unwillingness, she asked, "Quan Ce, since you are confident, then the Commerce Mansion will be handed over to you?" ”

"The minister is not proficient in the way of mathematics, it can be supplemented, the counselor of foreign affairs, the business of trade, and the choice of talents" is very calm.

Empress Wu pursed her lips and asked again, "Who do you think can be a virtuous person?" ”

Quan Ce buried his head and said with a clear conscience, "The minister, the three sects are Zhu Yingxiu, and the Yinqing Guanglu doctor Zhang Changzong presides over several chapters, so he must be able to take on this responsibility."

"The minister seconded the proposal" Wu Sansi jumped out and couldn't wait to agree.

"Ministers seconded the proposal" civil and military courtiers, whether they were as flattering as Wu Sansi or as powerful as the policy, went against their hearts, hula and knelt down.

"Hahaha" Empress Wu laughed, held her waist, and brushed her sleeves to get up, "That's it, it's so good, Zhang Changzong is enshrined in the Commerce Mansion, and the right policy is the Yin of the Commerce Mansion, and the affairs of the Commerce and Commerce Mansion will be discussed."

"On the second day of February, the Green Dragon Festival, I will set off for Dengfeng and seal the Song Mountain in the middle of the Zen Mountain.

"Quan Ce, although you are the duke of Xin'an County, but the fief is in Dengfeng, you must do the friendship of the landlord, the younger generations of the royal family, you will choose, and go east with me"

"Obey the order" bowed down to receive the order, and all of them were envious.

No second person has ever had such an honor.

Wu Sansi was indignant, "Every time you are flattering, you are really a traitor"
