Chen Hong did not answer Cui Wenqing immediately, but instead set his eyes on Wang Anshi, and asked in a deep voice: "Teacher, do you know the current supply of meat in the Central Plains?" ”

Wang Anshi has lived in the center for a long time, and he is proficient in many situations, and he immediately came at his fingertips: "Qiqi Guanjia, the meat supply situation in the Central Plains is more complicated, generally speaking, a few big businessmen monopolize the supply of meat, and the rest There are many scattered small merchants engaged in the mutton business, but the volume of goods is small, among which the most famous mutton supplier is Rongjunhao, whose behind-the-scenes owner is related to Xie Junhao, and the two should also have a closer relationship of interest. ”

"Xie Junhao is involved?" Chen Hong's eyebrows suddenly raised, and in front of Wang Anshi and Cui Wenqing, he did not hide his feelings, and directly showed a displeased look.

Wang Anshi said first: "Official, Xie Junhao is more greedy for money and power, and has been engaged in many businesses under his name, but when it comes to making money, it should be this Rongjun No., Rongjun is a well-known mutton supplier, which often buys goats in various parts of the Central Plains, and then transports and sells them to earn the difference, Luoyang West City has its huge store storefront, carrying out bulk goods trading, and because of Xie Junhao's support, the government governments around the Central Plains also take care of Rongjun, take Luoyang City as an example, mutton seven or eight out of ten, All are supplied by the Rongjun. ”

Hearing such news, Chen Hong was obviously a little unhappy, stood up and paced around the hall a few times with his hands in his hands, and then turned around and asked the question he was most concerned about: "Can the King of Qi have anything to do with this Rongjun?" ”

Wang Anshi sneered, and his tone had a kind of contempt from the heart: "Official, the two have been in cahoots for a long time, the answer is self-evident, do you need to say more?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Hong bowed his head lightly and said to Cui Wenqing: "Little Cui Aiqing, if it is something else, it will be a matter of holy decree for me, but Xie Junhao and King Qi are the beneficiaries of the supply of mutton, and if they want to accept pork, I am afraid that it will be difficult, and if I intervene rashly, it will provoke the resistance of these two people, so Xiao Cui Aiqing ......"

Speaking of this, Chen Hong had a hint of apology on his face: "For the pork you want to implement, I can only express my support from the bottom of my heart, many things must be handled by yourself, and you need to open up the situation by yourself, and I hope you can understand." ”

When Cui Wenqing heard this, he suddenly felt a whimper in his heart.

Originally, I expected the official family to help in the implementation of pork, but I didn't expect the official family to have so many scruples.

Indeed, now it is inconvenient for the official family and the King of Qi to tear their faces.

Listening to the will of the officials, they can only express their moral support to themselves.

Thinking of this, Cui Wenqing was still a little disappointed.

It seemed to see that Cui Wenqing was a little frustrated, Chen Hong thought about it, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Even so, I still feel that it is necessary to promote pork, as long as you can open up the situation and let the people recognize pork, then in the court, I can mediate for the implementation of pork, and then we will occupy the reason, even if Xie Junhao makes trouble with the Queen Mother, it is reasonable." ”

Wang Anshi smiled and said: "Wen Qing, the official family says this, but they completely treat you as their own, I believe that with your wisdom, it will not be difficult for the people to accept pork." ”

Cui Wenqing had no choice but to nod and smile: "Since that's the case, then okay, official, teacher, I will definitely work hard to promote pork, and I will definitely not let you down." ”

Hearing this, Chen Hong and Wang Anshi both nodded with a smile.

Leaving the palace, Cui Wenqing bid farewell to Wang Anshi and returned to the Governor's Mansion of the Zhenwu Army.

Before the night came, he was full of depression, but he kicked off his shoes and lay on the bed alone looking at the beams of the room.

It has only been three or two days since I returned to Luoyang, but there are too many difficulties I face.

First, the implementation of pork is not smooth, and he has to face a strong enemy like Xie Junhao, is there a way for him to win?

Second, things with Sima Wei are not going well, Wang Anshi has already given himself a cautious warning the day before yesterday, the anger from the prime minister of the current dynasty is naturally not to be underestimated, what method should he use to hold the beauty?

One is a business matter, the other is a private matter, and the two things pressed on Cui Wenqing's heart like two fast stones, which made him toss and turn on the couch unbearable, and he didn't know how long it took before he fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Cui Wenqing rubbed his eyes and yawned heavily to report to the household department.

As soon as he walked to the official room of the household department, Fu Bi stood up impatiently, and said with a surprised smile: "Oh, Wen Qing, you are finally here, but the official has been looking forward to you for a few days." ”

Cui Wenqing arched his hand lazily at him, and said with a smile: "Rich man, look at your excited appearance, why do I suddenly have a feeling of being on a thief ship?" ”

"Hey, what got on the thief ship, nonsense." Fu Bi smiled angrily, "This is the household department, one of the six departments is very powerful, many people think that the household department has no chance, you are good, you actually dislike the east and the west." ”

While laughing, Cui Wenqing had already sat down on the desk, took the tea cup handed by Fu Bi, and smacked it slowly.

Fu Bi, as the head of the household, is Cui Wenqing's top boss, but in the face of it, Cui Wenqing has no sense of restraint at all.

First, it is indeed because Fu Bi is approachable and does not put on a show at all.

Second, and the most important point, because Fu Bi is Wang Anshi's confidant and an important minister of the law change faction, Fu Bi and Cui Wenqing can be regarded as their own people, so naturally there is no need to be restrained.

Fu Bi did not have a polite relationship with Cui Wenqing, and said straight to the point: "The purpose of An Shixianggong to set up the Daqi Bank is to earn silver taels for the imperial treasury like the Hedong Bank, but it is a pity that the old man does not know much about the bank, and because he is busy with the official affairs of the household department, the Daqi Bank is negligent in management, resulting in the slow implementation of the bank, and the issuance of treasury bonds is also quite slow. ”

"Issuance of Treasury bonds?" Cui Wenqing was a little stunned, looked at Fu Bi and said with a smile, "Master Fu, do you mean that Daqi Bank is currently mainly issuing treasury bonds, and competing for business with those local banks?" ”

Fu Bi didn't hear the surprise in Cui Wenqing's words, and said: "Yes, but even if our Daqi Bank opens branches in local states and counties, it will not get the support of local yamen, because many states and counties have already set up local banks, and from the perspective of grabbing business, Daqi Bank is completely unable to catch up with state and county banks." ”

"Alas, rich man, you are really ...... Oh, I don't know what to say about you. Cui Wenqing shook his head again and again, angry and funny.
