Zhao Xing's answer was slightly softened, there was no meaning of refusal in his words, the two adults breathed a sigh of relief, Jing Liangcai hurriedly pulled Qin Dan, got out of the way, and replied kindly: "Of course, of course, I will wait for the news of Lord Zhao." ”

As soon as Liang Zimei saw this situation, she immediately stepped forward and pretended not to know her: "Lord Zhao, the lower official escorted the tea and medicine money to Shaanxi Road, and Huanqing Road should be divided into 200,000 yuan, and the number has been counted properly, please use the seal quickly...... Alas, Lord Qin has only been here for more than ten days, and the lower officials have been staying for four months, four months. ”

Liang Zimei sighed sadly.

This guy is purely pretending, because Zhao Xing's official seal is all in Wan Qianyong, if he wants to save trouble, let Wan Qianyong stamp the official seal. But he didn't leave, there must be something confidential to talk about in private.

Liang Zimei's complaint, Qin Dan felt the same way, and he interjected sympathetically: "Lord Liang might as well go to the house with Lord Zhao, since the tea and medicine money has been counted, it is just an official seal, and it doesn't take much effort." ”

Qin Dan didn't know that the official seals were all in Wan Qi Yongna. Because Wan Qianyong completely controlled Zhao Xing's official seal, this was a special case in the Great Song Dynasty. In the past, the Great Song Dynasty was all born as officials, and they were ignorant, and often handed over their official seals to the subordinate officials, and as a result, the students were often hijacked by the subordinate officials. After that, a good martial official knew, this person was famous, one of the thirteen heroes of ancient China, named Zhang Qianya, this person drew his sword and killed his subordinates, and since then he has been listed as chivalrous with bearded people and others.

Zhang Qianya's official fortune is also very prosperous, he sat in the position of the prefect of Sichuan Prefecture, the Song army killed too much when he destroyed Shu, and the successive officials could not quell the resistance of the Sichuan people, Zhang Ganya went, and the Sichuan people were honest. Then Li Zhichun, a good old man, took over his position.

After Zhang Qianya killed his subordinates, the officialdom of the Song Dynasty formed an unspoken rule: no matter how urgent the situation was, the official seal would never be allowed to be mastered by the subordinates. A hundred years have passed. The first to break this rule was Su Dongpo, the great writer was very arrogant by nature, and he was extremely fond of traveling in the mountains and rivers, when he was in Hangzhou, his official seal was in the hands of Zhao Xing, and now in Yangzhou. The official seal is in the hands of Chao Bu.

Zhao Xing inherited the tradition of Su Shi, as soon as he left the state government, he threw the official seal to his subordinates. to facilitate their response to emergencies. Liang Zimei knows this habit. So his performance just now was purely for drama, but Qin Dan didn't know that he was still helping on the side and pushed Liang Zimei to Zhao Xing's side.

With Qin Dan's words, Liang Zimei pushed the boat smoothly, swaggered behind Zhao Xing and entered Zhao Xing's mansion, and after Zhao Xing took a bath, he found that Liang Zimei was already drinking wine with side dishes in his room. Humming a little song comfortably.

There was a table of Western Xia porcelain piled up on the table, and several open boxes were placed on the ground.

No one was in front of him, and Liang Zimei no longer pretended, he turned a tea bottle in his hand, and exclaimed: "What a beautiful porcelain, I have gained a lot from this trip, such a unique shape." I've never seen it anywhere else. Where did you get the ground, did you go to the Xixia Palace? ”

Influenced by his father-in-law, Cai Jing. Liang Zimei's appreciation of art is also extraordinary, he was idle just now, he took stock of the porcelain that Zhao Xing plundered back from Western Xia, and he was amazed at every look, these porcelain were exquisitely made him love it. Unconsciously forgot the taboo of being a guest, and turned the box that Zhao Xing carried to the room upside down.

After Zhao Xing took a bath, his whole body was full of relaxation, he lay lazily on the chair, poured himself a glass of wine, and said lazily: "These can't be given to you, I will bring them back to make samples, I have captured that group of craftsmen, and I am counting on them to burn good porcelain for me." If you like it, and they make it back, I'll give you a set. ”

Liang Zimei took a sip of wine, reluctantly took her eyes off the porcelain, and replied, "Then thank you for leaving...... Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you well for the incident in Yangzhou, I heard that Mr. Su went to Yangzhou, for the sake of leaving the ground, and did not pursue the matter of tens of thousands of acres of silted fields, and now I only have about 10,000 acres left in my family, those are good paddy fields that are enough to pass on the family, and this family business is thanks to the care of others. ”

Zhao Xing laughed, he grabbed a porcelain vase, looked at it repeatedly, and said with self-appreciation: "The highest level of corruption is that you will always be greedy for small heads, and let others be greedy for big heads - this other person is the people." Yangzhou pioneered 300,000 acres, I only took 10,000 acres, this is wisdom, if you are greedy for 100,000 acres, it is to find death. My Yangzhou officials were greedy for 100,000 mu at a time, and the people still had 200,000 mu in their hands, which is the big head, so although my Yangzhou officials are unprecedentedly corrupt, who doesn't praise us for being honest. That's embezzlement. ”

Liang Zimei also grabbed a porcelain vase to admire, laughed and said: "This time, Brother Zhao Xian is also greedy a lot on Huanqing Road, look at these porcelain vases, they are simply beautiful and worrying." ”

Zhao Xing shook his head with a smile and denied: "Wrong, wrong, wrong!" This is not called corruption, this is called reasonable and legal return on investment. Do you know venture capital? I came to Huanqing Road, here is poor and white, strong and strong people are sad, it is me - please remember: it was I who made venture capital, advanced money to buy a batch of grass seeds, saplings, and also formulated an unprecedented plan for all grass and trees to restore the vitality of Huanqing Road, which got rid of the situation of being passively beaten in one fell swoop.

So, everything here now, is a return on my venture capital. This is what I deserve, it is not called corruption, you must remember, familiar to familiar, I will accuse you of slander if you talk nonsense......"

Liang Zimei understood Zhao Xing's ridicule, and while admiring the porcelain vase in his hand, he said excitedly: "Although what you said is a set of crooked reasoning, this crooked reasoning is also reasonable. It's funny court officials, when I went out of Beijing, they were all wondering, why the money on the Huanqing Road was always spent, I went to the Huanqing Road to take a look, but I understood, money is like flowing water, flowing in and out so endlessly, no wonder Zhao Xiandi's money is always spent. ”

"Oh?!" Zhao Xing turned over and sat up, and asked in surprise: "I didn't expect you, I didn't expect you to understand the mystery of cash flow - that's right, money is like flowing water, and money can only be generated through continuous circulation, this truth is as simple as that." I advanced a sum of money and gave it to the people on credit for free, and it seemed that I had suffered a loss, but in fact, as long as the people entrusted me with the sale of the goods produced, what I got was monopoly profits.

The government advanced money to buy my goods, and then gave them to the people on credit. It seems that the government has suffered a loss. But as long as the market is active, the government's tax revenues will increase, and as long as there will be more employment, that is, more people working, and everyone will have money in their pockets, and expenses will increase. Every time you open a branch, you have to pay taxes to the government, and the money purchased by the government is then lent out, and each copper plate can get several times the income.

Money is flowing in the treasury. Keep spending it. Keep coming in money, as long as the people have money in their hands, the government will never run out of money, because the government has the right to tax, the reason is so simple! ”

When ordinary people hear Zhao Xing's introduction, they will simply follow the inertial thinking of the philosophy of struggle, and lead this matter to the controversy between the new law and the old law, accusing Zhao Xing of this as a variant of the Qingmiao Law. So Zhao Xing didn't want to explain in detail, he just did not say it. But he didn't expect Liang Zimei to understand, and he saw the mystery at a glance.

"Yes, yes, the government buys your things on credit, and then buys the goods in the hands of the people on credit, the people have money in their hands, and the government has faith. They will buy the machinery in the hands of the government. Start a workshop. It is equivalent to returning the government's land money to the government, and then then. They are just earning money from the four realms to pound your treasury, no wonder the surrounding counties are crying out for poverty in unison, no wonder they say that you have messed up prices, and no wonder they are crying and shouting that they want to join the Grass and Trees Soldier Plan. Wonderful, this thing is linked one by one, as long as the cash flow flows into it, the people will never be short of money in their hands, and the treasury will always be full. ”

Liang Zimei's later words were purely summarized by himself, and the Cai Jing family did not seem to lack the wisdom of financial management, which made Zhao Xing very surprised, he touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "If you understand this truth, then Su Song and Su Xianggong also understand, and Su Sanzhang (Su Zhe) will also understand, why are the people in the capital still surprised?" ”

Zhao Xing didn't know, the Liang Zimei in front of him was known as the only person who was proficient in currency warfare in the history of ancient China for 3,000 years, according to normal history, he was the Hebei capital envoy in Huizong, and he heard that the Khitan people liked the Jurchen Beizhu, Liang Zimei "poured out his plan to offer, and donated 3 million money to the Beizhu City." Beizhu out of the Jurchen, Zimei City in the Khitan, the Khitan loves its profits, and abuses the Jurchen to catch Haidongqing in order to seek the pearl. The calamity of the two countries is based on this, and Zimei uses it to show the light. ”

This record comes from the history of the Song Dynasty, the history of the Song Dynasty despised the Cai Jing family very much, and even Cai Jing's own deeds he also had a lot of smears and distortions, but only Liang Zimei was merciful, recording that he used the currency war to trigger the war between the Liao State and the Jurchens, and this Liang Zimei is the "Liang Zhong" in the Water Margin, and the "100,000 Birthday Gang" came from the hard-earned money of the Khitans who bought the Northern Pearl Land - he earned 3 million Khitans at that time. This happened to be the dumping method used by Zhao Xing against the Khitans during his tenure in Mizhou.

Liang Zimei discussed a few more words with Zhao Xing, and then introduced the reason why he had not returned for a long time, he put down the porcelain vase, looked outside the door, and said softly: "Is it safe to leave the people's house!" ”

Zhao Xing nodded: "Don't worry, all the people who can enter the inner courtyard are widows and the children of my clan." ”

Liang Zimei continued with confidence: "At the beginning of the year, the saint fainted once, and after waking up, his body was not as good as before, although he was struggling to support, but the world knew that his time was short, some courtiers were already discussing in private, or someone recommended Zhang Zhangshu to re-enter the court, Zhang Shuxiang is now living in the countryside, and he is watching very closely, and the villagers are full of resentment towards him, and the living can't get close to there. My father-in-law said that only Brother Zhao Xian can enter and leave his house freely, and I heard that the two of you move around quite a lot. It is better to inform him from the past, hoping that Zhang Shuxiang can form a wide range of comrades, support the government and the opposition, and confirm the matter as soon as possible. ”

Zhao Xing stared at Liang Zimei for a moment, and smiled slightly: "If you tell me this, it means that you and your father-in-law are both marginal people." You may not know that since Cheng Yi retired, the New Party has formed a very tight small group, echoing each other and communicating with each other. ”

Liang Zimei was overjoyed and asked anxiously: "Since Brother Zhao Xian knows that there is this organization, he will definitely be able to talk to them......

Zhao Xing interrupted the other party's words: "I can't talk, they have now decided that I am a hardcore Shu party, how can they talk to me?" I know them because these people really don't have the talent to engage in intrigues. You know, my home in Hangzhou has been attacked several times, and since then I've been a little more careful about what is going on around me, and this time I noticed that the gang of students had a close correspondence. And these letters are delivered through my express warehouse.

I probed them on the spot, and found that the gang was actually discussing important matters in Goolan Vashe, and I didn't know how to avoid them, and from the inquiry, I guessed about how they were organized. It's nothing more than a few ringleaders leading a group of students. Running for a return to power. And the chapter is the banner they hold up - in this regard, your father-in-law is slow to hear, however, I suggest that your father-in-law find another way to join in. Because those people are not successful people, now join in. There is a risk that the disaster will affect ......"

When Zhao Xing said this, he stopped abruptly, and he picked up a teacup casually. sighed and said: "You must know that your design talent is really unspoken." I don't know if he saw these things. What kind of design inspiration should you spark? ”

Zhao Xing changed the topic, obviously not wanting to talk about this matter anymore, Liang Zimei was still secretly surprised in his heart, he secretly reminded himself: What a terrible Zhao Liren, the New Party secretly assembled, I didn't even hear any rumors, but Zhao Liren could tell the way they sent the message...... Yes, the way of transmission. What secrets do we have in the future, if we want to avoid Zhao Liren, we must not go through his express warehouse.

Liang Zimei only read in his heart, he thought that Zhao Xing had just made an unintentional mistake, and casually told the secret of his warehouse. But he didn't expect that what Zhao Xing said just now was actually a warning to him, warning the other party not to make small moves in front of him.

Now. With Zhao Xing came to Shaanxi. The Velocitor Warehouse has completely freed itself from the confines of the Canal Lands and has begun to extend its tentacles to land transportation. They branched off to the west, extending directly to the Shaanxi region, and to the east covering Shandong and Hebei. Under the shroud of this big net, any disturbance in the north cannot be hidden from Zhao Xing's ears and eyes.

Zhao Xing is warning Cai Jing that his interests cannot be violated until his freight network is destroyed, and to destroy this freight network, he will have to bear unimaginable consequences......

Liang Zimei didn't know this, he was still thinking about how to avoid the monitoring of the Internet, and when he made up his mind, he turned the topic to the artwork according to Zhao Xing: "Brother Zhao Xian might as well find a few painters to paint these things, and I will pass the sketch to Jiayue through my own channels, so that Jiayue can enjoy it, and I can give Zhao Xiandi ideas." ”

Zhao Xing laughed, picked up the porcelain one by one, and asked Liang Zimei to taste it.

The next day, Liang Zimei handed over official duties and resigned helplessly to return to Beijing. From Zhao Xing's vague hints, he already knew that the group of New Party members was entrenched in Xi'an. That place was originally the base of the old party after Sima Guang was demoted and went out, and now the new party is also gathered in Jingzhao, lurking and waiting. But unfortunately, now that the old party is in power, they are looking for every opportunity to present others as members of the new party in order to fight persecution, and sometimes it is not the new party that they have to turn black and white into the new party. In this case, Liang Zimei only dared to find an excuse to negotiate with Zhao Xing privately for half a day, but now that the excuse is gone, he doesn't even dare to stay for a moment, and seeing that the New Party's latent base is in front of him, he has no choice but to return to Beijing.

Liang Zimei left, and Qin Dan, another official who charged money, was even more anxious. From the appointment of the imperial court, it can be seen how much hope the imperial court has for this reduction in military spending, originally according to the official system, Qin Dan only needed to hand over to the transfer envoy Jing Liangcai, and the latter was with Qin Dan all the way out of Beijing. But now Fan Chun jumped very high, this old gentleman had just seized the Western Xia Suici, but the court could only pretend not to know, and now that the limelight was flourishing, he held the state hostage and made it powerful, and resolutely disagreed with the imperial court to reduce the allocation of a copper plate. With him charging ahead, the officials of Jingyuan Road and Yanlu simply used the excuse of the front-line war and ran to the border, and the only thing left was Zhao Xing. So the two officials discussed privately and had no choice but to visit.

Zhao Xing was not idle here, almost all the people who participated in the battle in Luochuan gathered here with him, even if he was not present, there were representatives who could call the shots, they were noisy, Jing Liangcai and the others had not yet entered the courtyard where the council hall was located, and they heard the noise through the courtyard wall.

Cheng Shuangcai placed the two adults in a small hall next to him, Zhao Xing hurried with Wan Qiyong, after he saluted the two adults, Jing Liangcai couldn't help but ask: "What are you arguing in the hall, when I came in just now, I heard someone shouting that it was unfair, and what did he say about the fact that he rushed into Helan Yuan first, could it be that he was talking about meritorious deeds, why is Sun Cong not there?" ”

Zhao Xing grinned and replied very unconsciously: "It's not enough to reward meritorious deeds, we are sharing the spoils, some people think that the distribution method I give is wrong......

Qin Dan's face changed, and he was about to stand up, Jing Liangcai knocked on his knee and interjected: "After a big war, it is always the army of the imperial court that fights, and the imperial court must always have an explanation!" ”

Jing Liangcai This is a covert reminder to Zhao Xing, Zhao Xing asked thoughtfully: "My lord, I know that the imperial court has been suffering for the sealing of the pile money for many years, I really want to know, do the Xixia people have the sealing money?" Do the Liao people have the money to seal the pile? Why don't the Tangut and Liao people allocate an extra fee for the war, they can still enter the Song Realm every year and loot on a large scale, while we, the imperial court, spend more money than them every year, and can only wait for them to rob every year? ”

Jing Liangcai was asked, Qin Dan was also dumbfounded, these two people were stunned for a long time, and then stammered: "The people of these two countries are soldiers when they go out, and farmers when they enter, their soldiers don't need to pay military salaries, and my Great Song Dynasty is all mercenary soldiers......"

Zhao Xing stared at him and asked: "Why are the people of these two countries willing to go out as soldiers and enter as farmers, while the soldiers of my Great Song Dynasty let them defend their homeland and need to tattoo their faces to prevent them from fleeing?" ”

This question is like a thunderbolt, and the wells that are blown up can't sit still with Qin Dan.
