Chapter 363: Spring and Autumn Dream

Rongde Xiao Lori retorted unconvinced: "But Dasha is not a prince yet." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

"Don't call your brother that." The queen mother gave Zhao Jinnu another shock, and said conclusively: "Since the beginning of the Song Dynasty, basically the royal family in charge of Kaifeng Mansion is the default prince, which is already a tacit understanding. Your brother Zhao Huan is the son-in-law, the eldest son, and your father is easy-going, and he owes something to his mother, so letting him serve as the pastor of Kaifeng Mansion at such a young age is actually acquiescing to him in the future. My son, dear son, as long as you don't make big mistakes and worship a good teacher, no one will be able to subvert your position. ”

"When my mother says so, I will rest assured that my son." Zhao Huan said.

The queen mother touched Zhao Jinnu's little brain and said: "You are so jumping, I will marry you to Pork Ping in the future, and let him discipline you well." ”

"Okay." Emperor Rongde nodded with her fingers in her eyes, saying that, she didn't really know what was going on......

This time I entered Beijing in the north, and the so-called debriefing was just a procedure.

This time, he didn't catch Lu Junyi's pigtails by the way, and although Lao Pei also wanted to overthrow Lu Junyi, Lao Pei didn't agree with Gao Fangping's means to overthrow, and such conditions became very complicated, and Lu Junyi's buttocks have always been wiped clean, and it is not easy to rely on the program to straighten him down, so he can only continue to observe.

Gao Fangping's biggest purpose in North 1 Beijing this time is a bit obscene, that is, to rely on a further relationship with Lao Liang to negotiate the business of Qianzhuang.

In the past, Lao Liang did not agree, partly because of political issues. The second is the risk posed by the bank.

But now these two problems have eased. This time the Tang Dynasty quelled the chaos, Liang Zhongshu approved the action, which has offended Cai Jing to a certain extent, so he is a bit standing in the water and not afraid of the rain, and approving Qian Zhuang should not be much for his political pressure.

As for the issue of risk, Xiaogao has been operating the money bank for so long, and it still has a reputation and is operating very well. There has been considerable success in both Gyeongseong and Monju, as well as in parts of Jeju. The benefits of the money bank have begun to be greatly felt.

The benefits come from two aspects, one is that there is no need for caravans to escort large amounts of silver, resulting in large losses, so this has brought about an explosive increase in commerce between Mengzhou and Bianjing, the reason is so simple, business is easy to do, of course there are more people to do. Prices are also continuing to fall, and the benefits of the people are also obvious.

In view of the environment of the Great Song Dynasty, there were many bandits. In the past, small traders actually did not have the ability to go far away, and the biggest problem was that the money would be robbed, and the goods were not necessarily.

The Great Song Dynasty was full of bandits, and sometimes people in every village were bandits. Of course, there are relatively few cottages that kill people indiscriminately and become climates, and most of them are in a state of half-people and half-bandits. In this case, you will definitely be robbed with a lot of money, but if it is the goods, it is not necessarily, sometimes give a little toll, pretend to be pitiful, and the goods are not worth much and are difficult to get rid of, and the bandits simply do not want the goods.

As a result of this environment, in the past, those who could sell goods over long distances were all big merchants, because only they could have the strength to protect the money after the goods were sold.

Then this has caused the situation that the big merchants monopolize most of the goods, usually the big shopkeepers in Mengzhou to greatly reduce the price of goods, buy all kinds of handicrafts in the hands of small workshops and small merchants, and then unify the goods to Bianjing to get rid of them, since it is a monopoly nature, there is also a monopoly profit.

In other words, most of the money was earned by a small number of people, and the prices of goods bought by the people of Bianjing were still inflated.

After Gao Fangping's money exchange business was opened up in Mengzhou and Tokyo, the most significant situation was that once the money would not be robbed, some small and medium-sized traders would no longer hand over their goods to the big traders at low prices, and they would have the courage to sell the goods to the capital by organizing a few people to carry the goods or drive the donkey carts.

As a result, ants gnawed on elephants and competed with big merchants, so many prices in Bianjing were falling, and at the same time, the profits of small workshops and traders were gradually rising. And so the money really flowed.

It turns out that part of the reason for the shortage of money in the Great Song Dynasty is that a small number of people have made a lot of money, and then hide it at home, and they can't use it much. And now, some money has flowed into the bottom, and the people at the bottom have begun to consume, and the money has flowed, and at the same time, Gao Fangping's large profits have been generated.

The biggest significance of the times is that the profits of small merchants and small workshops began to increase, and their mood to do things was also high, and the people engaged in various handicraft industries were gradually able to eat and the number of practitioners was increasing. Therefore, competition has formed within the industry, and it is most obvious in Mengzhou and Tokyo, where the number of craftsmen with various crafts is expanding, and all kinds of technologies and all kinds of novelties are developing like a blowout.

The Song people did not lack technology and creativity, all they needed was an environment.

Gao Fangping created this rough environment at the beginning, but it was actually very imperfect and had many shortcomings.

But the pioneers who ate the crab first were always angry, respectable, and at the same time in danger. They were all groping in the dark. The group of "pioneering" small traders in Mengzhou and Tokyo also fought almost with their lives. Because for so long, the expansion of trade routes between Mengzhou and Tokyo has also continued to kill people, and there are constantly people who die desperately with bandits.

This pot was destined to be borne by the imperial court, which absorbed large commercial taxes from these pioneers, as well as the progress of craftsmanship and technology, and the progress of the number of employed people. However, the imperial court failed to fulfill its obligation to protect taxpayers, and failed to eliminate the obstacles on the trade route - bandits.

These handicrafts and business ways are the blood vessels of the Great Song Dynasty. How healthy the blood vessels are and how fast they can support blood flow almost determines the scale of the war that can be supported after the start of the national war in the future.

But it will take time to straighten out all of these, after all, there is only one Yongle Army, and more of the army is a real soldier and bandit who is not even as good as the "famous general Cao Zhong", relying on them will not only not be able to eliminate the bandits, but also cause secondary harm to the common people and businesses. So for the time being, I can only pull and fight, relying on the people's own fault tolerance rate, and relying on the courage of these pioneers who ate crabs first.

This problem has been present for thousands of years, except after the establishment of the Republic, regardless of the dynasty or generation. It's a bit cruel, like you can't take medicine after getting sick, and you have to rely on your own immune system to defeat the virus.

For the time being, that's all there is to the money and the pros and cons.

These questions are generally incomprehensible to faint officials, but a smart person with rich experience in governing like Lao Liang can understand them.

So this time in North 1 Beijing, when Gao Fangping talked about Qianzhuang with Lao Liang again after the debriefing, in view of the fact that Gao Fangping has also done a lot of things and shown his talent for a long time, Lao Liang's tone is a little loose, showing a certain degree of interest in Qianzhuang.

However, it was just an interest, and he didn't know what medicine this old guy was selling in his gourd, and he never agreed positively.

In this regard, Gao Fangping had to stay in Bei 1 Beijing for some more time in order to observe the situation.

The money bank business in North 1 Beijing is too important to Gao Fangping. In addition to Tokyo, it is the second most prosperous town in the Great Song Dynasty and the largest trading "partner" of Tokyo. One of the biggest problems is that North 1 Beijing is also the first bridgehead and the first important town for trade between Song and Liao.

At the same time, there are also cold wars, public opinion wars, economic wars, trade wars, financial wars, and other means of killing people without seeing blood.

Just like the influence of Bianjing's checks on those Hu merchants, Gao Fangping's most urgent thing at the moment is to carry out the bill of exchange business in Bei 1 Beijing, if the Liao merchants can slowly adapt to the exchange bills and become dependent, and then slowly affect the lifestyle of the people in the land of Yanyun, Gao Fangping is sure that in the future, he will not need to fight with a large army, and he will be able to use financial means to destroy half of the Liao State.

Even if you don't want to go so far, North 1 Beijing is such a prosperous and important town, and the profits that Qianzhuang can bring in the short term should not be underestimated.

In this foothold in the north, it is necessary to play a big game of chess. The general direction is already there, and the rest is waiting to slowly improve the layout, and then remove the hidden dangers in the north in one fell swoop.

Gao Fangping didn't know how many games this process would have to go through and how many forces he would have to play, but if he could know a daimyo one day, it would accelerate the strategic layout of the north, and if not, it would be much more difficult.

With the current momentum of Xiaogao, he will be the same as Jinshi Dengdi the year after tomorrow, and at the same time, he will also end Yuncheng's tenure the year after tomorrow. If you don't make a big mistake from now on, Zhizhou is basically certain. But if you want to be a prefect, you have to look at the creation of the government, you have to look at the situation at that time, look at Zhang Shuye's ability, and then see how much credit Gao Fangping has from now on. Finally, let's look at Cai Jing's momentum at that time.

If Cai Jing is dismissed again during this period, Gao Fangping will basically be able to set the tone of the Daimyo's Mansion, and the last time he will go to the Chengdu Mansion. Although it violates Xiaogao's strategic layout in the north, it doesn't seem too bad to go to Chengdu Fulu to preside over the layout of the southwest, defraud the copper mines of Dali, and buy Vietnam's grain and pigs cheaply.

However, if the situation is not good and Lao Cai's momentum is not weak, it is estimated that it will be miserable, and it is possible to be thrown away from the unimportant Bozhou office and Gao Lian to be embarrassed.

Therefore, the treacherous Xiao Gao now has a few preparations, as soon as the situation is not right at the end of next year and the beginning of the year after that, he will make trouble and deliberately make mistakes. Since the court bureau has decided that the Chengdu Mansion or the Daimyo Mansion is hopeless, it is best to be demoted to Hainan Island to be Qiu Ba, damn it, it is still a state. In the eyes of others, he is going to be a savage, but in fact, he takes a group of teams to develop sea routes, become pirates, get an eye patch and wear a one-eyed dragon, which does not mean that he will not be famous.

When the time comes, it is also a good route to dig up a group of shipbuilding masters from the craftsman supervisor and the military construction supervisor to take them away, work their own self-reliance, build a fleet to go to Japan to defraud the Japanese people, and sell it to Liaodong to harm the Jurchens. Of course, once you take that route, there is basically no hope of domination. At that time, the traitorous father must have been angry to death...... (To be continued.) )
