Guangnan East Road, Guangzhou Prefecture, Xinhui County, Jian Town, Dunn. Looking at the conspicuous text on the sticker, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Xin's mouth.

"My third envoy, Qing is really struggling to make progress now!"

Guangnan East Road is the Guangdong of later generations, and Xinhui is the core of Chaoshan.

Here, since ancient times, there have been countless adventurers who have gone to sea to become wealthy, and in the Song Dynasty, it was especially prosperous.

Xinhui Deng is the best of these people.

Zhao Xin remembered the previous life, the self-report of the three envoys: the ancestor and fellow townsman Wang An, Guangzhou Li Quan, etc., a total of two ships and 130,000 tangerine peel and 200 stones, knotted as a fighting button, where ten years old, the profit was a hundred times, so he was glad to buy a big ship again, and hire more villagers......

And the minister's father inherited the business, continued to protect the ancestral business, still as promised, and the minister's birth, the family property, has 300,000!

Dou Niu was a form of business alliance in the Song Dynasty.

Its general form is about ten people for the alliance, each of the principal, labor and commodities, the deed and the guarantee, and ask the government to notarize, set as a document.

Therefore, ten people hold this principal, take turns to sit in the village every year, operate and trade, and make profits, and at the end of the year, they will settle and distribute dividends.

Nowadays, most of the tea merchants, salt merchants, and silk merchants in the Great Song Dynasty are operating in this way.

Because if you don't do this, you can't buy or sell.

No matter how strong one person is, ten people have joined forces to fight there?

It must be known that there are not only local snakes, but also shrewd businessmen, and even the sons and daughters of high-ranking officials.

People eat both underworld and white.

As a result, in the Northern Song Dynasty in this feudal society, there were countless prototypes of joint-stock companies in later generations.

From Guangzhou to the Daimyofu, from Yizhou to Guangnan.

Dou Niu is blooming everywhere, and the prosperity is not good.

In addition to Dou New, Zhao Xin also knows that the earliest futures trading should also appear now.

This was made by merchants in Fujian Road and southwest of Quang Nam in order to sell lychees and longan.

Because these two commodities are so popular that they are in short supply, in order to seize the farmers' lychees and longans in advance, these smart people take money directly to the farmers' homes every year when the lychees and longans bloom, and estimate their yields according to the flowering conditions of the lychee trees and longan trees, and then make a deed and pay a deposit to take down all the output of these lychee trees and longan trees this year.

Not only in business, but also in civil affairs and agriculture and even in the military, partners also appeared in the Great Song Dynasty.

For example, a farmer at the bottom of the household, several or more than a dozen households enter into a deed of guarantee, purchase cattle and farming tools together, and share their use and income.

If the archers along the border have no money to buy horses, then more than a dozen families of people in the same situation will form an association to buy horses.

Even the government also engaged in this kind of thing, and the official land of the Great Song Dynasty was rented to the households, and it was also a contract with the households, and various provisions were set to stipulate how much output to pay as much rent, and if it exceeded a certain standard, there were preferential exemptions and rewards.

In Zhao Xin's previous life, in the middle of his reigning career, the earliest professional manager even appeared in the Great Song Dynasty - Ganren.

But......

Speak of a but.

The Great Song Dynasty was indeed commercially developed, the city was prosperous, and trade was prosperous.

However......

After all, the Northern Song Dynasty was a unified centralized feudal dynasty!

Officials are the real masters of this country.

Moreover, after experiencing the turmoil from the Tang Dynasty to the Five Dynasties, scholars and doctors paid special attention to the centralization of power.

Almost all scholars and doctors believe that the chaos of the five dynasties is the result of the lack of prestige of the central government.

Therefore, in the Great Song Dynasty, the central government held all the power.

Not only the right power and military power, but also the economic power!

Therefore, commerce in the Great Song Dynasty can develop, handicrafts can develop, and cities can prosper.

However, when the big businessmen saw one and killed the other, or when they saw one, they worked the wool of the mattress until they died!

It is not too easy for an official to kill a private businessman.

When Taizu was in power, the general Li Hanchao was on the border, Li Hanchao was greedy and lustful, and as soon as he arrived at the border, he herded sheep, and he was powerful and evil.

So, he forcibly robbed the daughter of a local businessman as a concubine, and forced the latter to borrow a large sum of money to Li Hanchao.

The bitter lord couldn't bear it anymore, so he went to Beijing to sue the emperor, and the lawsuit went to the emperor.

Guess what, how did Song Taizu deal with it?

The answer is that it is not dealt with at all!

Song Taizu only asked the bitter master two questions at that time.

First: When Li Hanchao was not there before, did the Liao people often invade, and you were worried and afraid, and you couldn't sleep day and night?

The answer is: yes.

So, Song Taizu reproached the bitter master on the spot: Han Chao is my general and has made great contributions to the country, so what's wrong with him borrowing you some money now? Yes! Besides, it is your blessing that your daughter can be a concubine for Li Hanchao. Why don't you cherish it?

What else can the bitter lord say?

Although later, Song Taizu secretly summoned Li Hanchao and secretly ordered him to return the money to his daughter.

Naturally, you can think of it with your buttocks, and Li Hanchao will definitely do it, and in the same way, you can also think of it with your buttocks, and the final fate of the bitter lord will be.

Li Hanchao is a military general, and he looks ugly.

But the civil servants are no better.

Liu Pan, a famous minister of Taizong, oversaw the Huainan tea tax and developed his own technique of fishing law enforcement—he often disguised himself as a merchant and went to the homes of local farmers and merchants to negotiate deals.

At the moment when the money and goods were handed over, the officials who had already been ambushed rushed in and arrested the master - I'm sorry, you broke the law!

Because the Northern Song Dynasty banned the private trade of tea.

During the time of Zhenzong, Lint, the deputy envoy of salt and iron, presided over the reform of the tea law, and overnight suppressed the profits of tea merchants to less than 10% of the original, and countless merchants went bankrupt, while Lint relied on this tea law, which was only a temporary benefit, but was actually a public and private evil, and turned the color of his robe and clothes into purple.

The salt merchant is even worse!

Because the country's regulations change as they say.

But the worst is the weavers, because the state is constantly forcibly expropriating and forcibly buying their people and products.

Under the official government, in addition to the relationship between the emperor's relatives and dignitaries, what kind of fight do ordinary people have? How to fight?

Therefore, the other side of the commercial and private economic development and prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty is the pervasive supervision and bone sucking under the official power.

It's okay to buy and sell a small business, but once the business becomes bigger, I'm sorry, if the backer is not hard enough, then you will immediately find that countless people have reached out.

Catching a sheep mattress to death can be regarded as a characteristic of the Great Song Dynasty.

Naturally, the Deng family and his partners have become bigger, and they have ushered in countless people with bedding wool.

Even, some people don't even want to bed wool, and want to simply kill chickens and take eggs, and then talk about having a good meal.

Fortunately, the Deng family and his friends were lucky, and they met a good official - Lang Zhong of the Ministry of Industry at the time, and Duan Shaolian, the servant of Tianzhang Pavilion, happened to be expelled from Guangzhou.

And Duan Shaolian is fair, strict and honest, and his style is simple and serious.

I couldn't stand this kind of dirty thing, so I decisively shouted to stop, so that the Deng family was spared this catastrophe!

However, this incident also woke up Dunn and made him understand a truth - money in this world is not omnipotent, power is omnipotent!

So, he decisively took the road of becoming an official, and since then he has embarked on a long road to seek an official.

In Zhao Xin's previous life, it took him twenty years and countless sums of money to finally become a Beijing official.

But by then, he was already fifty-six years old.

Then, he met Zhao Xin, who had just ascended the throne and intended to open up overseas trade channels and earn overseas money to enrich the treasury.

As soon as the monarch and the minister met, they immediately became extremely compatible.

Within three years, Dunn had established a complete and efficient trade system for Zhao Xin in Guangzhou and Quanzhou, and had set up a number of state-run merchant fleets.

Five years later, Deng En moved to the left with the political achievements of raising the city to serve as the deputy envoy of the third division of the government with 5 million yuan in the previous year, and finally worshiped the third secretary as the direct bachelor of Longtu Pavilion, and at the age of sixty-nine, he gave the prince and the prince, the school master, and the senior scholar of the palace, and at the age of seventy-three, he was posthumously awarded the title of Shu Guogong and Zhenwenzhuang.

And now, this official fan in his previous life, who is also the minister who knows most about maritime affairs and overseas trade around Zhao Xin, is only in his thirties now, and he is in the prime of life.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Xin skimmed his eyes away from Dunn's name.

If jade is not cut into a weapon, and if it does not experience suffering, how can Dunn know what is the grace of heaven?

Zhao Xin is no longer the stunned young man who first ascended the throne in his previous life.

He has seen through people's hearts and human nature.

I know that rashly promoting or meddling is not helping Dunn, but harming him!

It's not good to pull out the seedlings and help them grow!

And compared to Dunn, obviously, Zhao Xin cares more about the people on the roster of the tricolor and a few people on the other two rosters.

So, Zhao Xin beckoned, called Fu Bi in front of him, and asked, "Zhengyan, when will the judgment of the chosen ones begin?" ”

"Tomorrow......" Fu Bi replied with a bow, and then asked, "I don't know if the Duke of the Kingdom has any teachings of Deyin?" ”
