Cai Qian replied, "Daddy, these three methods are naturally good, but how to change this tea introduction?" ”

Cai Jing said, "In the past, tea farmers planted tea, and traders needed to go to Beijing and Zhou to buy tea and pay taxes before they could buy tea from tea farmers for transportation, but many traders forged tea introductions, for the disaster is not small, for the father to prepare a place in the states and counties, for the contract field, in the future, the tea quotation is in duplicate, after the vendors buy tea, they need to go to the tea production county contract field scale, inspection, sealing, according to the specified quantity, time, and place for distribution. Once a year, if someone forges it, all of them will be copied. ”

Cai Qian praised, "This method is very good, Daddy, I think it can be." ”

Cai Jing heard that his son also agreed with this method, so he said, "Okay, you and I have a good sum up, and my father expects that this method can increase the benefits of millions of tea." ”

Cai Qian also sat down with interest, but said worriedly, "But if the official family still wants to build it again?" ”

Cai Jing said with a smile, "I have been to see the Yanfu Palace, and it will be completed by the year after tomorrow at the latest, and then I can accumulate some money and prepare for big things." ”

Cai Qiqi said: "What's the big deal?" ”

Cai Jing looked at the northwest and said, "What happened to the Jing Guogong in the past? The affairs of the northwest are also, the old man has seen the military situation in the northwest this year in the past few days, although Li Qianshun wants to work hard, but the foundation of Xixia is too thin, he can do it in one year, I can do it in January, as long as I accumulate a year, I can open the border in the northwest. ”

Saying that, Cai Jing said to Cai Qian with some excitement, "Juan'er, you have to remember that in this world, heroes will always be judged by victory or defeat, no matter what those fools say, as long as the northwest is successful, your father and I will be a good minister through the ages, if the Western Xia is owned by my dynasty, the momentum of our dynasty and the Liao country will be easy, and there will be another thirty years of life and gathering, and the land of the Han and Tang dynasties in the past will be restored!" ”

Cai Qian also snorted more when he heard it, Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, this is a dream in the hearts of all aspiring Song people, thirty years, Cai Jing may not be able to wait, but he Cai Qian can still see it.

Cai Jing patted Cai Qian on the shoulder and said, "Your brother is stupid, he only knows how to invite favors to the official family, but he doesn't know how to think about government affairs. He will inevitably cause a catastrophe in the future, but you are different, you are down-to-earth and willing to learn, he will be his father one day, and you need to take care of this way of changing the law and the Cai family. ”

Cai Qian looked at Cai Jing with tears in his eyes, and Cai Jing said with a smile, "For my father, okay, let's not talk about this, let's hurry up and talk about tea." ”

- Half a month later

"Is this the city of Tokyo? It's so lively! Wang Gui looked at the high city in front of him with glowing eyes, and said excitedly.

"Strange, why is the wall of this Kaifeng City dilapidated in many places and not repaired? And under this city wall, there are many people, this is not in harmony with the art of war. Yue Fei looked at Kaifeng City and said, "If the enemy army comes to attack, wouldn't it be easy to break the city?" ”

"Isn't my brother stupid, this is Kaifeng, who can attack?" Tang Huai asked with a smile.

"Why no one? If there is a British lord in Liao, it will only be a matter of a month to get here..."Jiang De stepped forward and said, "That's it, let's not talk about this, let's go to the city first." ”

Before preparing to enter the city, Zhou Tong said to everyone, "You have all the armor protection documents ready, Tokyo is no better than other places, if you have no documents and have a sword, you will be rounded up and punished." ”

It turned out that the Northern Song Dynasty began to implement the ban on blades as early as the early days, and this ban did not mean that all weapons were banned, but that important weapons such as spears, armor, and crossbows were banned, and bows, arrows, knives, short spears, and shields were not forbidden. This ban was only relaxed in some border areas, such as the northwest and Hebei regions, where archers and soldiers were banned

Of course, for some places of rebellion, it is another story, for example, during the period of Song Renzong, there was a rebellion among the Yao people in Hunan, and after the Song army suppressed it, all local weapons were confiscated, including swords and shields.

But at the same time, the Song Dynasty also guaranteed the right to legally own weapons, and during the Zhao Guangyi period, an official He Shaozhen found a group of people with swords on the road, so they arrested and tortured all of them, forcing them to be robbers. Zhao Guangyi felt suspicious after discovering it, and only after asking did he know that these people were sacrificing, Zhao Guangyi immediately released these people and gave them tea, silk and other valuables, and then beat He Shaozhen and demoted him.

Interestingly, with the advancement of the times, by the time of Song Zhezong, it was stipulated that Baoding's weapons should be used except for winter training, and all other time periods should be confiscated. At this time, Huizong was restricting civil weapons more and more, but because the officials were gradually corrupt, the government did not dare to clear those strongmen who really used knives and guns, which made such decrees gradually empty words.

But Kaifeng is still the capital after all, and the law enforcement here is also the strongest in the Song Dynasty, so Jiang De and others do not dare to be sloppy, if another hundred years, although the Southern Song Dynasty promulgated the same control over weapons, and even toy weapons are not allowed to be bought and sold, but the weak control of the people makes it possible to see in Lin'an a store specializing in selling crossbow arrows and armor, which is a spectacle.

Jiang De and others entered the city with the documents, and saw that there was an urn city inside, and after walking through an urn city, there was an urn city, which made people feel that Kaifeng was heavily guarded.

Zhou Tongjiu lived in Kaifeng, and said, "This Kaifeng is divided into three cities, the outermost is called the outer city, the circumference is more than 40 miles, there is a dragon river for its moat, and the river is more than 10 zhang wide. There are three layers of urn city outside each city gate, and they are not opposite to each other, and only four of the twelve gates are the royal gates, so they can go straight to the inside and outside.

Let's talk about the inner city, this inner city is the old city of the Tang Dynasty in the past, with a circumference of more than 20 miles, and it is the imperial city of the official family in it, this Kaifeng has a population of one million, and the river is vertical and horizontal, but it is a good place for the first class in the world. ”

Jiang De looked around, looking at this first city in the world, which gathered the wealth of the world, and felt a lot of deep feelings in his heart.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Flower Stone Gang is coming! Suddenly, a shout came, Jiang De hurriedly looked, and saw a boulder moving slowly from a distance.

"It's Huashi Gang, let all the ox carts go to the side to take shelter, pay attention to the livestock, and definitely can't run around!" Zhou Tong hurriedly shouted.

"This is the Flower Stone Gang?" Jiang De This is the first time to see the Huashi Gang, after all, the Huashi Gang is from the south, and there are no places in Neihuang and other places in the north, looking at the boulder that does not know how many tons there are, Jiang De can't believe that without machinery, this thing can be transported from Jiangnan to Kaifeng, thousands of miles away.

Zhou Tong sighed, "This is Huashigang, the favorite thing of today's officials, have you seen the yellow cloth on the boulder?" As long as the Zhu family in the south of the Yangtze River uses this yellow cloth to paste, it can be called a royal thing, and once it is damaged, it will be raided and the land will be seized.

Actually, that's fine, but if you're looking at such boulders, I don't know how much money and financial resources it costs to transport them all the way, and the rivers and mountains of my Great Song Dynasty have been hollowed out little by little. ”

Jiang De narrowed his eyes and said, "The official family is actually fascinated by such a thing... It really is.."
