Chapter 513: Great Inspiration, Great Joy
When there is no war, Xuanfu is indeed a real good place. Although it is not like Datong that is extremely developed in the fireworks industry because of the many happy households raised by the royal palace, there are tens of thousands of troops stationed in the city alone, and there are also many flower streets and willow alleys in the city. Many of the officers who were transferred here even thought about it, thinking that it was more comfortable and enjoyable here than in Beijing. However, it's a good place for men, but it's really boring for women.
Xiao Wu, who came all the way, found that Zhang Yue's body had already been almost better, her medical skills had no place to use, and she was not good at treating external injuries at all, and she couldn't help Xiang Long's external injuries. On this day, because it was the time when the merchants handed over the text to the General Military Mansion, Zhang Yue went out early in the morning, so she was bored at home for a while, and finally simply changed into a men's dress and went to the General Military Mansion to watch the excitement.
The name of the street in front of the General Soldier's Mansion is called Bingfu Street, and its name is naturally derived from the General Soldier's Mansion, which is wide and flat, and the entry and exit are unimpeded on weekdays, but today it is a little crowded.
One is that due to the cold weather, although there is no snow, there is a thick layer of hoarfrost on both sides of the road, and many places where water has accumulated are even frozen. The second is because there is a long carriage parked along the base of the wall, which takes up a third of the road, and there are carriages rushing here. Because they were all civilians, these carriages were all black and flat, and if it weren't for the colorful car enclosures, it would be difficult to distinguish them for a while.
Xiao Wu had only taken a few steps from Bazhen Street, and when he arrived at the ground, he couldn't help but be even more curious when he saw such a crowded situation. Seeing that some people who were thickly wrapped would rather stand in the wind, but a tea stall not far away was empty and there were few people, so she was naturally even more strange, so she simply walked a few more steps and found a seat on the tea stall and sat down. She took out a few pennies of tea money, and when she saw the middle-aged stall owner coming over to pour tea with a smile, she couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Uncle, what are so many people here to hand over that thing? On this cold day, they will either take the carriage or come to you to rest, why bother blowing the cold wind there? ”
"The girl also came out to see the fun?" The stall owner saw that there were no guests, so he put the teapot back on the stove, wiped his hand on the apron, and came over to sit opposite Xiao Wu, "These are the richest people in Shanxi, if they don't have a bottom in their hearts, they won't come by themselves this time, what is this blowing!" As for me, it's just a bowl of coarse tea for two pennies a bowl here, and on weekdays, it's just a few military masters who come in and out, and their cars are full of warm hot tea in silver bottles, so you can look at me? I heard that the regulations of this opening are different from those on weekdays, so they are so tight, don't you see that the scribes at the door are all receiving one and sticking it on the eight-character wall? It's the first time that the government is so upright, and that little Zhang has a way of doing things! ”
"Lord Xiao Zhang naturally has a set of things, otherwise how could Wu Anhou hand things over to him?"
The one who answered the question was an officer in a red jacket, he stared at Xiao Wu for a while, then licked his lips and smiled: "This opening has always been the most beneficial, just like a girl who has taken off her clothes, who wants to touch it when she sees it, but this time it is all from the General Military Mansion into the warehouse, and it is difficult to get up and down." Looking at the girl's dress, could it be the maid of a big businessman? Instead of watching this kind of fiction here, I know a good place to go, and there is some news, why don't we go to Le and Le He? ”
"Little Wu, you're really here!"
When Xiao Wu was frowning, she heard such a familiar voice behind her, and she hurriedly turned her head. As soon as she recognized the person, she exclaimed in surprise and joy: "Brother Wan, why did you come back so soon!" ”
Wan Shijie didn't look at the officer whose face was not so good-looking, and said to Xiao Wu with a smile: "It's not because the top is in a hurry, Lu'an Mansion has already prepared people according to the Ministry of War, so this time the military household is so fast." After all, the war is imminent, and no one dares to slack off on such a big thing. As soon as I turned into this street, I was startled, and I originally planned to go in immediately to report to Wu'anhou, who knew that by the Yuan Festival so troubled, it seemed that the General Military Mansion would not be able to enter for a while. ”
"Yes, my brother-in-law's head doesn't know what it's made of, it's always an idea on the left and an idea on the right." Xiao Wu nodded vigorously, seeing that Wan Shijie's clothes were dusty, and the people were also gray-faced, he couldn't help but laugh, "You are probably in a hurry on the road again, look at the soil on this body, pat it and sit down to drink tea and take a breath, no one will blame you for delaying for a while." ”
Escorted Xiao Wu all the way to Xuanfu from Jingshi, although he had the opportunity to talk to the beauty, but even if Wan Shijie has always been uninhibited, he always felt that his tongue was not enough in the face of Xiao Wu. So, at this moment, in the face of this tone of concern, he only felt that his mouth was dry, and he didn't know what to answer, and he was still a little ignorant when he sat down.
The officer next to him, who was completely ignored, had to hold his breath a little more at this time, but because of the answer between the man and the woman, he had no choice but to leave. And the middle-aged stall owner also heard something, and hurriedly carried a large teapot to pour a bowl of tea for Wanshijie, and then slipped aside silently, wondering in his heart.
Since he is an official person, why doesn't he care about the defense of men and women?
The pair of young people who didn't care about the defense of men and women were chatting and laughing at the tea stall, watching the lively situation here in the General Military Mansion, while Zhang Yue, who was standing at the door of the General Military Mansion in the cold winter, kept rubbing his hands that were about to freeze, but his eyes kept wandering on the two sides of the eight-character wall that was almost completely pasted. He originally wanted to make a warm room, let all the merchants sit and wait for the results, and then report the text one by one for people to copy on the whiteboard, but Wu'an Hou Zheng Heng laughed at it.
"Shinong businessmen, the court wants to use the money of merchants, but it is unnecessary to be too polite to them, lest they have money and give birth to something. Besides, the cold winter moon is waiting outside, and the Tartar spies may find out the news and know that our army is full of food, so they will naturally weaken their voices at that time. I asked the military academy that reported the military information to go through the back door, and the open space in front of the General Military Mansion happened to be reserved for you to do errands. When the text is sent, it is pasted on the eight-character wall, and no one dares to say that there is a cat here. ”
According to Zheng Heng's meaning, Zhang Yue should still sit in the warm flower hall and drink tea at this time, waiting for the final result, but it was the first time he handled the opening of the matter, and finally decided to sit in person. I don't know how long it took, but all the texts were finally pasted, and several scribes hurriedly calculated and sorted them in full swing, and they were busy with fine beads of sweat in the cold wind.
Seeing that the sun had risen high, Zhang Yue couldn't help but stomp his numb feet and tighten the big on his body. Lian Sheng next to him took a look at the gap and hurriedly stepped forward to deliver the hand stove, but he shook his head. Not only did this rich businessman want to stick to the two walls and read all the texts clearly, but many people were watching him, and he really didn't want to stand there with a hand stove and look at him.
"My lord, it's all lined up!"
Hearing this voice, Zhang Yue immediately felt refreshed, and the Jin merchants who were still sorting by themselves just now also turned around and hurriedly surrounded each other, all of them pricking up their ears. And the scribe got Zhang Yue's look, so he stood up, picked up the thin piece of paper in his hand, and cleared his throat again.
"Pingyao County Luoche, one stone, one bucket, three thousand leads!"
"Taiyuan Mansion Wang's family, one stone and one bucket, two thousand leads!"
"Pingyang Mansion Fan's, one stone and one bucket, two thousand five hundred leads!"
When these three numbers came out, there was a commotion at the bottom, especially the businessmen in these three places. The reserve price is only three buckets and five liters, which is actually tripled, and the number has reached 7,500 yuan, which is more than one-tenth of the total purpose of this total. For a while, even if these were all Jin merchants with a lot of wealth, there were many people who messed up, some took out handkerchiefs to wipe their sweat, some exchanged heads and ears with each other, and more sighed. As for the three merchants who came out on top, they let out a long sigh, ignoring the envious or complaining or angry eyes of their fellow countrymen.
"Lu'an Mansion Fang's Clan, one stone, three thousand leads!"
"Lu'an Mansion Feng's, one stone, four thousand leads!"
"Lu'an Mansion Qin Clan, one stone, two thousand leads!"
"Lu'an Mansion Wang's family, one stone, two thousand five hundred leads!"
If there are still three people in front of them who can maintain their composure, when this Lu'an Mansion suddenly offers a high price of four stones and one lead, it is as if the bottom is a fried pot. The lucky people watched their hopes gradually disappear at this moment, and couldn't help but curse fiercely for those guys who raised the price to lose their lives, but after hearing the number of nine buckets and five liters, nine buckets, and so on, everyone gradually accepted this reality, and only the expressions on their faces were extremely weird.
If he hadn't always had to face a moody genius like Zhu Di, Zhang Yue's face would have been more wonderful than anyone else. He knew that there must be more than that floor price in this opening, but the estimated figure was seven to eight liters per lead, and he never expected it to soar to such an astonishing price. It's just that this time the military rations are not worried, and the pressure will be transferred to the Lianghuai salt farm. 66,000 leads are equivalent to two months' output of Huai Yan, I hope Wang Xunliang's side will not disappoint.
At noon, when Wu'an Marquis Zheng Heng heard an unbelievable number from Zhang Yue, he almost didn't believe his ears, and simply flipped through the thick stack of papers one by one. Of course, he would not think that this was all because of Zhang Yue's ability, and after careful questioning, he said thoughtfully: "The emperor's decree not to pay salt is really exciting, but I am afraid that there are people who are fueling the trouble." But the result is the most important, and it doesn't matter what the process is. The Northern Expedition has no worries about food, and this time we must solve Arutai! ”
Hearing these four words, Zhang Yue's heart moved. At this time, a pro-soldier report came from outside: "Master Hou, the envoy from Beijing has arrived, and he has already gone to issue an edict to Gonggong Lu!" ”
At this moment, Zhang Yue only felt his heart skip a beat. If it is said that this opening is inspiring, then whether it can be happy next depends on the news that has been waiting for five days!
