“…… Well, bamboo leaves are bamboo leaves...... The next step is to make a different packaging, and I will help you contact the maritime merchants who go to the big food country to purchase the glass bottles. Don't be afraid of being expensive, it's like people wearing clothes, which represents grade and taste, and the money for buying clothes is ultimately paid by the person who buys perfume, you just pay on behalf of you, don't feel distressed. And then there is the sales crowd, if you want to sell expensively, you have to find rich and noble people to buy, how can you let them buy it? There are many ways, but if you start from scratch, I'm afraid it's a bit slow, and it will put a lot of money down. As long as the officials of the Great Song Dynasty and their families like your perfume, the rich people will naturally follow suit. "As for how to do business, Hong Tao has a lot more goods in his stomach than managing the country and fighting wars. Although there is no TV or online advertising that can be used at present, the principle is the same, as long as you grasp this principle, a little flexibility of the specific means of implementation is a trick.

"Great Song officials! I don't know them...... I was going to go to the restaurant and find the courtesans. Jiang Zhuyi should have understood Hong Tao's idea, and he didn't say anything against it, but he just felt that it was difficult to implement.

"It's a good idea, but don't be a courtesan, that job is too dangerous, what if you run into a drunk like me again! Besides, if you follow the path of a courtesan, your identity is a problem, and it will affect the positioning and audience of the perfume brand, which is inappropriate...... In this way, I'll help you find a way to deal with the affairs of the officials, this is not in a hurry, I estimate that they will be sent to the door soon. Just need to prepare some greeting gifts, your perfume is a good gift, just where to find a more chic box...... That's a problem! Let me think about it...... "Actually, it's a good idea to go to a restaurant and find those courtesans to sell perfumes." They come into contact with wealthy people. Especially in high-end restaurants. Officials are not in the minority. However, Hong Tao instinctively didn't want Jiang Zhuyi to step into that environment again, he wanted to create a smoother road for her, for no other reason, it was selfishness. Although it is an enemy relationship, after all, she has been with her for one night, and she doesn't hate her, or she likes it a little, and she can meet a woman she likes a little in the Great Song Dynasty. It's not easy.

What are you yelling for, the packaging box that Hong Tao finally came up with for Jiang Zhu really has his characteristics, it is a model of the Jinhe one by one. More than a foot long, hand-carved by the carpenters of the ship out of wood, not only the hull is exactly the same, but also the mast and sails, and even the ballast in the bilge, which will surely float steadily in the water. It's just that there is a dark groove under the stern, and when it is opened, there is a pair of two small bottles of Bamboo Leaf Green brand perfume, and the trademark is on the wax seal of the bottle. It is also done by the craftsmen on board.

"How? I'm pretty good at crafting on board! Let's go, let's eat. Try my chef's craft again, you don't have to eat it...... Oh, by the way, and the father and son of the Xu family, they just got together at a table and almost forgot about them. "Whatever you think of to do, Hong Tao pulled Jiang Zhuyi to the bottom cabin to watch the carpenters do carpentry work for a long time, and after getting the first finished product, he was satisfied to drill up, at this time the sky was getting dark, and it was time for dinner.

"Life on the ship is so hard, do they just stay in the cabin every day and sleep in that kind of hammock?" Jiang Zhuyi didn't stay in the bilge this afternoon, she had no interest in doing carpentry work, and accompanied by sailors, she walked around the ship and had a preliminary understanding of life at sea. Especially the mixed smell of moldy and human body odor in the cabin made her almost vomit.

"You can go on deck when you're docked, you can't move around when you're at sea, there's a place for everybody. My ship is clean and tidy, and if I take you around a few other cargo ships, you'll vomit. The people there live with horses, and hundreds of horses fart a day, and you wonder what that smells like. Hey, hey, hey...... Let's not talk about that, let's get ready for dinner. Come on, come on, Xu Zuotou, it's really sluggish, let's drink some, this cup is my reparation, do it first for respect! "Dinner is very simple and rich, barbecue, there are many varieties, what you want to eat do it yourself, just sit on the stern of the Jinhe, blowing the sea breeze around the hot grill, while eating and chatting and the river view to see, it is also quite meaningful.

This dinner has been eaten for more than an hour, not that Hong Tao's barbecue skills are amazing, but everyone has a lot of topics to talk about. Xu Liangzhi has decided to set up a joint venture with Jinhe Company to set up a maritime guild specializing in Japan and Goryeo, and according to Hong Tao's habit, the name of the guild is Pacific Company, which is responsible for maritime trade in the east. The chairman of the company is naturally Hong Tao, the representative of Jinhe Company, and the current shareholders are only Jinhe Company and the Xu family, and there will be no increase for the time being. Hong Tao doesn't want to make too much movement here, the company's only task is to meet the sulfur demand of Jinhe Bay, slowly gain a firm foothold on this route, and wait for Hong Tao to free up his hands.

"I won't send you, wait for my news......" There is no banquet in the world, although everyone was satisfied with this meal, Hong Tao still sent Jiang Zhuyi off the boat, whether she wanted to or not, she couldn't let her stay on the boat. On the one hand, Xu Liangzhi and his son followed, and the unmarried woman stayed on the boat in the middle of the night, which was not good for her reputation; On the other hand, Hong Tao is also afraid that he will fall too deep, if he really has feelings for this girl, it will be troublesome, how can he go to someone else to propose marriage? Don't give it out yet! In fact, he has now slowly escaped the realm of pure lust, what kind of girl he has never seen in his previous life, his liking for Jiang Zhuyi is more from the spirit, but he simply feels that it is more comfortable to talk and chat together.

On the third day of the arrival of the Hongtao fleet in Mingzhou, a team of men and horses came to the gate of the yamen of the boat transfer envoy, and the leading official on horseback was wearing a purple robe. According to the grade system of Southern Song Dynasty officials, the purple robe is at least a fourth-grade official or above, which is considered a real high-ranking official. However, Hong Tao still didn't get off the boat, and he asked Compassion to come forward and ask who the other party was, and then make plans. With the foundation of meeting Emperor Lizong on the ship, now he doesn't have to scruple about who he is, you emperors can chat according to my requirements, are you more senior than the emperor as a courtier?

The right to know the affairs of Mingzhou! What is this Nima's official position? If Hong Tao had just crossed over, he really couldn't figure out the complicated official system of the Southern Song Dynasty. Fortunately, he himself is studious, and he has contacted some ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty, so he doesn't dare to say that he has figured it out, but he can still know what the title of the main official position is.

This right knows the affairs of Mingzhou, and to put it bluntly, it is the prefect of Mingzhou. The word right originally meant agency, but it became a rule to shout, and if it was not the acting prefect and the governor, the governor also had to add the word power in front, which seemed more humble. The administrative division of the Song Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty was similar, and it was also a state and county system, and there was a road on it. However, the Luzhou counties of the Song Dynasty are quite distinctive, the road and the state are at the same level, the state and the government, the army, and the supervisor are also at the same level, and the cost-effective is a total of two levels, the state, the government, the military, and the supervisor are at the first level, and the county is counted as the second level. The first-level administrative regions were all under the control of the central government, which was similar to the meaning of the municipalities directly under the central government in later generations, that is, in the Northern Song Dynasty, the imperial court had to manage hundreds of municipalities directly under the central government.

As for the road, the road is neither a province nor a county, it has no chief executive, and each road has four divisions, namely the Transit Envoy Division (Groove Division), the Tidian Criminal Prison Division (Xian Division), the Changping Division (Cang Division), and the Jingluo Pacification Division (Shuai Division). These four divisions are in charge of their own stalls, and they are not subordinate to each other, only the pacification envoy of the pacification department is slightly higher, and has the right to recommend the officials of the road, and it is only a recommendation. However, the pacification envoy of the pacification department is not a standing official, and he does not have this position when he is not fighting, and only in times of war will the imperial court send someone over as a pacification envoy, and he must be a civil official, and it must be a military officer.

From the division of the Great Song Dynasty, we can see how jealous the ruling class was of the warriors, and how much they feared the wars of the late Tang Dynasty, and would rather spend so much energy than bring all the states of the country under the control of the central government. finally set up a road, but the result was still afraid that someone would divide the territory, so I simply didn't even set up a manager, and let a few departments grind their teeth and play. This gives the warriors no chance to divide the feudal town, but it also has many drawbacks, such as redundant officials, the decline of the army's combat effectiveness, too poor work efficiency, and too much money and food for the country. And once there is a war, it is better to let a literati lead the troops, and catch up with an official who usually looks good and has miscellaneous books, once he is a scholar like Wen Nan, do you think this battle can be won? If this person is a little stubborn and doesn't listen to the opinions of his generals, what will he wait for.

"Wu Qian!!" Mercy soon ran back with a small notebook, this thing is called a name post, which is similar to the business card of later generations, but in many forms. If it is a subordinate to meet a superior, it is called a door, and there is more content written in it, not only to understand who you are and where you come from, but also to say what you mean. If you walk around at the same level, you don't have to go so far, you just need to write who you are. Hong Tao opened this book and looked at it, and there was only one line of words on it: Wu Qian, the envoy of the coastal system in eastern Zhejiang, knew the Ming Prefecture.

This name Hong Tao is familiar, a famous lyricist in the Southern Song Dynasty! I don't remember what Hongtao wrote specifically, but he has traveled, most of the historical monuments have an impression, there is a historical monument in the southwest of Ningbo in later generations, called it (tuo) mountain weir, is an ancient water conservancy project, can prevent seawater from pouring into the rice fields from the Yongjiang River, and Zhengguo Canal, Ling Canal, Dujiangyan together called the four major water conservancy projects in ancient China. The builder of this mountain weir is Wu Qian, as for whether it is this Wu Qian, then you have to ask again. (To be continued.) )
