There has never been a shortage of gamblers in this world, but it is probably not accurate enough to describe people like Yuwen Shuya with "gamblers", and a more accurate description should be believers.

After all, Han Yi has been operating in Chang'an for so long, and there are many people who are very supportive of Han Yi's concept, and their belief in sticking to it is actually Han Yi, and they are waiting for Han Yi's return.

And Yuwen Shuya is just a more fanatical believer, and there are really too few fanatical believers like him.

Most businessmen seek to protect themselves, and before Han Yi returns, just don't fall, instead of going crazy to invest like him.

Because the whole environment is really unfavorable for businessmen, and there is no future in sight, only Han Yi's star is shining faintly.

......

This year is the first year of Longshuo, and it is said that this is the year when the real dragon appeared, why is there such a saying, because during the Longshuo period in history, Wu Meiniang also officially came to the forefront, but now Wu Meiniang has more than in history, and it is definitely a bumper year.

Wu Meiniang's new policy has achieved remarkable results, she levied commercial taxes, in order to share the burden of the peasants, especially the people of the two capitals, and the adoption of the official system, it can be said that it left no trace to avoid the pain caused by the new deal, more importantly, because this happened too suddenly, the rich merchants of Chang'an were originally ready to show their strength in the country, so they produced a lot of goods, especially daily necessities.

However, in the face of high tariffs, the wealthy merchants in Chang'an and Luoyang calculated an account and shipped it to other places to sell, so it was better to lower the price and sell it in Chang'an and Luoyang.

The prices of the two capitals are not rising but falling, and the merchants hurry up to ship in order to cash out, so the currency will naturally appreciate, and the people of the two capitals are very happy, because the cost of living is low, then the quality of life is high, to look at Chang'an and Luoyang alone, it is really a prosperous scene of peace and prosperity.

This makes people think that Wu Meiniang's new policy is simply too powerful, as soon as the new policy comes out, life has changed immediately, and the effect is immediate, which is more effective than Han Yi's policy.

When Han Yi left, many people in Chang'an felt confused about the prospects, because many policies were promoted by Han Yi.

But now it's different, more and more people support Wu Meiniang.

But Wu Meiniang is not satisfied, and she is now facing a more disgusting problem, that is, there are many ministers in the court, they always think that you are just an agent, Wei Siqian is the representative, Wei Siqian never bird Wu Meiniang, once Wu Meiniang dares to cross the thunder pool half a step, Wei Siqian immediately stopped her in person, you don't have this power, Your Majesty has to call the shots in this matter, and you don't give face at all.

This is because Chang'an has always been the capital, and the political system and bureaucratic system here have been formed over the past hundred years, and they are intricate and deep-rooted, which is not a matter of party affiliation, but of region.

Wu Meiniang wanted to go to Luoyang very much, because the officials in Luoyang were pulled up by her, and she had been improving Luoyang's status, not to deal with Han Yi, but to avoid the complex bureaucratic system of Chang'an and set up her own door, because the higher Luoyang's status, the greater the power of Luoyang officials, then the greater her power, in Luoyang she can show her strength in the political arena, in Chang'an she always has to have a lot of scruples, everything has to look forward and backward, which is why when the new policy is revised, He found some celebrities from Luoyang, and it was all planned.

It just so happened that Li Zhi's health was gradually improving, Wu Meiniang suggested that Li Zhi go to Luoyang to recuperate, Luoyang's environment is better than Chang'an, and when you go out, you can also see the effect of the new policy, so many ministers in the DPRK and China say good things about me, don't talk about you, I am not at ease, I still have to see is believing, you still have to go outside to see in person, if there are deficiencies, you must correct them.

Li Zhi has been in the palace for the past year, lying down every day, it is stuffy enough, he also wants to go out for a walk, relax, the imperial doctors also suggested that he do this, after all, there are too many things in Chang'an, there are always people to disturb Li Zhi, and it is also a good choice to go to Luoyang.

Li Zhi agreed to come down and decided to go to Luoyang.

Now that the four seas are peaceful, there is no major event in the country, and the emperor wants to go to the eastern capital for a while, and the ministers are not good at objecting.

The Lady of Wei's Mansion.

"Mother, have you packed up your things?"

"It's almost packed." Yang said, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Daughter, why didn't you invite your sister to go with you this time?" ”

Wu Meiniang was stunned and said, "I thought my mother would tell my sister." ”

Yang frowned slightly and said, "Your sister is sick." ”

Wu Meiniang said nervously: "What is the condition of that sister?" ”

Yang said: "Lang Zhong is saying that this is an old disease and needs to be recuperated, but your sister does not have any old disease." ”

Wu Meiniang said: "Don't worry, my sister Jiren has her own natural appearance, and my daughter will let the imperial doctor take a look later." ”

Yang glanced at Wu Meiniang and said, "Daughter, my mother asks more, is there a conflict between you and your sister?" ”

Wu Meiniang asked, "Why does my mother ask like this?" ”

Yang said: "You have always had a very good relationship with your sister, I remember that a few years ago, your sister was sick, and you immediately went to the house to visit, but it was ......" "The implication is that you're just sending an imperial doctor to take a look at it now.

Wu Meiniang immediately said: "Mother, you think too much about this, and my daughter also wants to see my sister, but now there are many things to do, and my daughter really can't get out, and I hope that your mother will help your daughter explain to her sister." ”

"Mother understands, mother understands." Yang nodded again and again, and said: "Daughter, your father died early, my mother worked hard to pull your three sisters to grow up, the three of you are the mother's heart, what my mother is most afraid of is that your three sisters have conflicts, and among the three daughters, you are the most sensible, if your sister does something sorry for you, my mother hopes that you can look at your mother's face and give her another chance." ”

Wu Meiniang said with a smile: "Mother, what are you talking about, how can there be an overnight feud between these sisters, even if you don't look at your mother's face, your daughter won't care about her sister." ”

Yang nodded and said with a smile: "That's good, that's good." ”

"Mother, if there is nothing else, my daughter will go back to the palace first, and there are still many things waiting for my daughter to deal with."

"You go, you go. On your sister's side, my mother will explain it to her. ”

"There's Lao Niang."

Wu Meiniang came out of the Yang Mansion, a touch of resentment suddenly flashed in her eyes, she turned her head again, looked at the door of the mansion, and said secretly, Mother, the daughter will not worry about anything else, but this is the only thing that the daughter can forgive her sister and let her sister leave with dignity, which is the only thing her daughter can do for her sister.

Lee House.

"The son-in-law has seen his father-in-law."

"How's this going?"

"The brewery is already starting production, and we will be able to ship it soon."

Liu Yuanzhen replied respectfully.

He had been a young eunuch in the Shaofu before, and now Li Yifu has promoted him to manage these government-run workshops.

"Good!" Li Yifu nodded with a smile and asked again, "How is the situation of Han Yi's wine shop?" ”

Liu Yuanzhen said: "It's still shipping, but the quantity is less than before. ”

"It's only three percent?"

"Uncle, now our wine has not been sold, and when our wine appears on the market, Han Yi's wine will naturally not be sold."

"That's just as well."

Li Yifu nodded and said, "But this is not enough, Han Yi originally relied on businessmen to start his business, and I want to dig up his roots thoroughly." Anyway, Han Yi's business is a money-making business, so what he does, we will follow it, we don't have to pay taxes, he is not our opponent at all. And what Brother Xiong, Du Zuhua's, that salt has to be franchised by the imperial court after all, Brother Xiong's little fat group, it will definitely not be able to do it, we have to open another toothbrush workshop, anyone can do that thing, and now everyone needs it. Oh, and the gold row. ”

Liu Yuanzhen hurriedly said: "Zhangren, we can do this wine, pickles, and toothbrushes, but Jin Xing is not easy to do, Jin Xing's secret words, paper, ink, we don't have it." Moreover, as far as I know, the gold bank has also been affected by some influences, because many businessmen are affected by tariffs and cannot sell their goods, but they all borrow money from the gold bank, so according to the son-in-law's opinion, as long as we knock down the businessmen, the gold bank will naturally not be able to open, and we will not be able to make money when we open the gold bank. ”

"That's it!" Li Yifu thought for a moment and said, "Then forget it, in short, you have to step up, I don't want to dream too much at night." ”

"Son-in-law knows."

Once the road of government management is opened, then all aspects can be government-run, and interests are also involved in all aspects, and at the same time, private businessmen must be finished, which can be said to be a fatal blow.

Of course, Li Yifu has to speed up the pace, the more he transfers, the more he can make money, and he no longer has to envy Han Yi's wealth, it can be said that Han Yi is suppressed in all aspects, but no matter how smooth it is, as long as Han Yi does not die, he will not be able to sleep well.

.....．

Yangzhou.

Han Yi came to Han Dashan's grave rain or shine, sweeping the tomb and burning incense.

After a while, I saw two middle-aged people walking over, one of them was Peng Jing, and the other was Tan Dong, who came back here first.

The two of them, plus Zhang Jianbo and Wu Wenxuan, can be said to be Han Yi's most trusted people, Han Yi rarely trusts anyone, his method of employing people is to see the hearts of the people for a long time, for a long time, the four of them are just helping Han Yi take care of some legitimate business, and those other things are handled by Zuo Wu and Dong Hao, but now, the four of them have also entered Han Yi's inner circle.

"The proprietor."

"Yo! Tan Dong is coming. ”

Han Yi stood up and asked, "How is the situation?" ”

Tan Dong said: "I have arranged everything according to the owner's instructions, as long as the owner gives an order, we can smuggle goods anywhere to any place." ”

"Good, good! You've done a good job. ”

"The proprietor has won the award, in fact, I haven't done anything, with your financial resources, plus the proprietor's seamless plan that day, there is basically no difficulty."

"There is no seamless opportunity, this difficulty is still there, this is actually a game of cat and mouse, when the game starts, then we will have to see the move, but they can't play us."

"I wonder when the proprietor plans to start?"

"Now it's not in a hurry, let those people below practice their hands, casually pour the goods, familiarize themselves with the process, and don't attract everyone's attention for the time being, this important event is still to come. By the way, do you know what the most lucrative business in the world is? ”

Tan Dong and Peng Jing shook their heads.

"It's an illegal business." Han Yi said: "There is too much competition in legitimate trading, if there is no good opportunity, it is very difficult to succeed, but the illegal is different, there is no competition in illegal trading, as long as you are not caught, you will definitely make a fortune." You wait, once this starts, the wealth of the world will be controlled by us, which is much more profitable than opening a workshop in the past! You have to be mentally prepared! ”

Tan Dong nodded, and couldn't help laughing, this is really exciting. Peng Jingsheng had a bitter face, smiling and crying, and he couldn't see it.

Han Yi said again: "At the beginning, you followed me to change the evil and return to the right, but now I let you correct the evil and return to the evil, how do you feel?" ”

Tan Dong smiled: "Don't hide it from the proprietor, in fact, I think this is more exciting, I used to help the proprietor take care of business, and I did the same thing every day, which is quite boring." ”

Peng Jing nodded slightly.

They are all liars, and they have an adventurous spirit in their bones.

Han Yi laughed and said, "Actually, I'm the same, the legitimate business is too boring, so I'll leave it to Sangmu." ”

Peng Jing said suddenly: "The proprietor, you have already made some eyebrows for me to find out." ”

Han Yi looked a little nervous and said, "How is it?" ”

Peng Jing said: "According to our investigation, the Temple of Confession is to use the money earned to help some people. ”

Han Yi's eyes widened, and then he said, "I want specific information about those people." ”

Peng Jing immediately took out a document from his arms and handed it to Han Yi, "What is written on this is the specific information of those people." He has been with Han Yi for so long, so he naturally knows that Han Yi has always disliked any reports, and he likes specific information even more.

Han Yi took the information, opened it and looked at it, her eyes flickered a few times, it was her, it must be her, she was still alive.
