Chapter 521: A Son

readx;

Back in Bianjing, Lin Zhao can also rest for a few days, the overall situation of Hebei Road has been decided, and Lin Shilang can be regarded as a meritorious person. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info//Welcome to Reading //

For this reason, Emperor Zhao Ji was also very sympathetic and allowed him to rest for three days before entering the palace to visit, which was also a disguised honor.

Although he had three days to spare, Lin Zhao couldn't rest completely. After all, he is not just Lin Shilang of the imperial court, but also the hope of many people, the soul of Mingyue Sect, for him Da Song, for himself, there are still many things to deal with.

First of all, Gu Yuelun and Yu Xuan reported to him the status of the family business, and in a few years, the financial resources of Meng's firm have increased several times. Although it is under the name of the Meng family, it is actually a common business between the two Lin and Meng families, and it used to be half of the shares, but after Meng Ruoying married into the Lin family, some changes occurred.

Although Mrs. Meng said that she had a child for Meng Ruogu, she was still young after all, and she still had to be taken care of by her aunt Meng Ruoying and her uncle. Therefore, most of them actually belong to the Lin family, in fact, there is not much meaning in distinguishing so clearly, and no one cares about it on weekdays.

In this way, there is also the meaning of concealment. Otherwise, Lin Shilang's family property is too rich, and it is easy to leave a handle for others, and he has nothing to do.

First Meng Ruoying, then Gu Yuelun, the business was very smooth, and Lin Zhao was very satisfied with this. Although his focus is on court officialdom now, he still attaches great importance to business, after all, doing big things requires huge financial support, and many things need commercial means to be more convenient and have unexpected effects.

For example, this time, Lin Zhao first instructed Gu Yuelun: "Mobilize all our funds and rush to buy grain in Huainan and Jiangnan." Rush to the north before the Qingming Dynasty to Bianjing, Luoyang and the Daimyo Mansion. ”

Gu Yuelun asked, "What do you want so much food for?" ”

"Nature is useful. You'll know when the time comes! Lin Zhao didn't know how to explain this, and it was not convenient to explain.

Although Gu Yuelun was puzzled, since her cousin had ordered it, she would never disobey it, so she agreed to it. After all, they all have a deep understanding of Lin Zhao's accurate foresight, and my cousin must have his reasoning, and he will definitely not suffer.

"Yaofu. What are the benefits of controlling the Yellow River this time? Lin Zhao is also quite concerned about this, and it is not polite to earn money from the imperial court at all, not to mention that these are all deserved by himself.

Yu Xuan said with a smile: "We have a monopoly on cement production, although we have preferential treatment for the imperial court, but this year's river embankment will be repaired, at least millions of yuan." Later, the entire section of the river was completely renovated. There may be more ......" Yu Xuan himself is not clear, if the entire Yellow River embankment is poured with cement concrete, how much will be needed, and how much can the Lin family benefit from it?

Lin Zhao didn't think about it so much, just asked directly, "How much money did we get?" ”

"It's the end of the year, and the three divisions are settling. It is estimated that I can pay at least 300,000 ......yuan this time," Yu Xuan said with a smile: "In the past two years, the tax revenue of the imperial court has increased, and the three divisions have plenty of money, which is very refreshing, and it will definitely be settled clearly before the New Year." ”

Lin Zhao just smiled faintly, this may be the effect of Wang Anshi's change. This is the interest income from the exploitation of those high-class households and the green seedling money. In the short term, it is certain that fiscal revenues will increase. It was precisely when Zhao Ji saw this that he believed that the reform was fruitful, and that a rich country and a strong army were just around the corner.

But in reality? Doing so will undoubtedly quench your thirst. On the surface, the fiscal revenue has increased and the country has become richer, but the people have become poorer. In the long run, the upper class households were overwhelmed, the peasants gradually went bankrupt, and this financial road, the entire Great Song Dynasty finances, was likely to collapse.

Of course, it may not be long before there is a sudden change in the likeness, such as a drought or something. It's a pity that Zhao Ji and Wang Anshi were blinded by this virtual image, and they didn't even notice it at all, maybe they didn't want to wake up from the dream!

Then let me help you wake up from your dreams once and for all!

"That's the best, what I'm afraid of is arrears, and it's really troublesome to go to the third division to ask for accounts!" Lin Zhao smiled and ordered: "After receiving the money from the third division, immediately deliver Yuelun, go all out to buy food, be sure to rush to the north before Qingming, it will be too late!" ”

"Yes!" Although Yu Xuan felt very pressured, he had to go all out for what Gongzi ordered. Anyway, the canal didn't freeze this winter, and everything went smoothly.

Lin Zhao said again: "By the way, in addition to the current business, I have found a new way to make money, you go and pay attention to it!" ”

"Please command!" Yu Xuan has a deep understanding of Lin Zhao's whimsy, and is naturally happy and looking forward to it.

Lin Zhao said: "When I came back, I saw a few porcelain merchants from Yuzhou, their newly fired Jun porcelain is very exquisite, I brought back a few, you go and take a look." This thing will definitely flourish in the future, you go to Li Cheng, contact those porcelain merchants, and cooperate with them to build kilns, they are responsible for firing, we are responsible for sales, or two cooperation...... I had a good relationship with him yesterday, and I think I can talk about cooperation, so you can try it! ”

"Porcelain business?" Yu Xuan hesitated slightly, the Meng family firm had been involved in this area before, and there was no experience at all. And the porcelain business is also risky, I'm afraid it will be ......

"Just do it, at least meet those people first, and see the samples!" Lin Zhao is very confident in this, Jun porcelain has been popular since the Song Dynasty. Gold is priceless, Jun porcelain is priceless, but there is a saying in this era, and it is naturally not wrong. It was a coincidence that I just happened to meet myself. Speaking carefully, I would like to thank the eldest princess of Shu!

High-grade porcelain like Jun porcelain is not used by ordinary people. Using porcelain as a medium to end up with the noble high society of the Great Song Dynasty and establish contact is not an ingenious means.

Regarding the arrangement of the son, Yu Xuan naturally acted completely according to orders, and as long as everything was done step by step, it would be very beneficial to his own development.

Not to mention, some things in business play a very effective role in the subtle way.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After arranging these things, it was already evening, but Li Cheng came back in a hurry.

"Childe. The Zheng Xia you confessed to has news! ”

Lin Zhao nodded approvingly, the efficiency of the Bright Moon Sect was still very high. So quickly, it was already found out. It is really important to have such an efficient team under your own hands!

"What's going on?"

Li Cheng replied: "That Zheng Xia used to be a student of Wang Anshi, and he was released from his foreign post before, and when he returned to Bianjing this year, he originally wanted to stay in the capital after the assessment. But because of the criticism of the Qingmiao Law, he offended Wang Xianggong, and was belittled among them, and now he is in prison...... This matter is spread in Bianjing, and almost everyone knows about it! ”

"Hmm!" Lin Zhao snorted coldly, with some emotion. How similar is Zheng Xia's experience with herself? That's what happened to me at the beginning. Wang Anshi is really stubborn and stubborn, and dares to speak out, it can be seen that this Zheng Xia still has a righteous heart, unlike some people who only know how to talk nonsense with their eyes open.

If he hadn't been eloquent at the beginning, he had made a lot of contributions before, and he happened to have such a mission as sending Hehuang, but I was afraid that the situation would not be much better than Zheng Xia. Of course. This should not be Wang Xianggong's handiwork, even if he doesn't want this student, it is normal to be angry, but he will not be so humiliated.

The prison guard came to the door, this position is really too humiliating for a Jinshi who has read poetry and books. Eighty percent is Wang Yan's handwriting, and this guy is missing some of his father's demeanor.

"How is Zheng Xia? Are you okay on weekdays? Lin Zhao asked softly.

"Not good. In addition to serving every day, he uses wine to drown his sorrows. Li Chengdao: "It's no wonder that he was a young talent with a bright future in Bianjing before, but now he is extremely down." became a laughing stock, and my heart was naturally unhappy. Now he goes in and out of the tavern every day. It's a great indulgence......"

"That's not surprising!" Lin Zhao sighed lightly, a good young man is about to be buried because of different political opinions, but it's a pity that he is full of talent. Zheng Xia is naturally unhappy, and it is not strange to use wine to drown his sorrows.

&nbs

p; "Did he say anything when he was drinking? Are there any cases of swearing? ”

Li Cheng shook his head and said: "No, our people went to the wine shop to inquire in detail, and they didn't scold, but Zheng Xia often cried bitterly after getting drunk!" Speaking of which, Li Cheng was a little unimpressed, men don't flick when they have tears, what does it mean to cry? In his opinion, this Zheng Xia is a little weak.

Lin Zhao didn't think so, and said softly: "It's right to cry, it's rare for him to have a sincere heart, so that his speech can be more effective, but it's a little difficult to do......"

"Difficult? What does Childe want to do? Just be told! Li Cheng was also curious, why did Gongzi care so much about Zheng Xia?

Lin Zhao pondered for a long time and said, "Zheng Xia studied in Taixue, right? ”

"Yes!"

"Are we learning anyone? If you are a classmate with Zheng Xia, or is it someone who has a relationship? ”

Li Cheng nodded and said, "There should be, it's not difficult to find such a person!" ”

"That's good!" Lin Zhao said: "Find someone to secretly contact Zheng Xia, remember to just drink with him, it is best to become a drinking friend who is sympathetic and has a good relationship, and you don't have to do anything else." ”

"Just drinking?" Li Cheng was slightly puzzled by this.

Lin Zhao nodded and said, "Yes, you just need to drink with Zheng Xia, listen more, relieve your worries more, probe his mind, and maintain a good relationship with him......"

"Childe, are you planning to bury a chess piece in advance?" Li Cheng whispered tentatively: "But now Zheng Xia is just a small person, and he is not of much use!" ”

"The usefulness is not necessarily linked to the position, although the scale is small, it can weigh thousands of pounds, and sometimes the key is the most important." Lin Zhao said leisurely: "Just do it, whether it is useful or not, you will know when the time comes." ”

"Yes!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When it got dark, Zheng Xia returned home from the city gate, changed into civilian clothes and went straight to the wine store.

Only at this time, taking off that nondescript official uniform, can he revert to the dress of a scholar? But what's the use? What if you have an ambition, even if you are talented? It's not like there's nowhere to put it? What is there to talk about at the city gate with a group of big-headed soldiers? It would be a humiliation.

What if there is a gentleman's costume on the ship? The more this is the case, Zheng Xia's heart is full of suffering.

Wang Xianggong disappointed him a little, when he was in Jiangning, he admired this learned Wang Governor's Mansion and took him as a model. It was a great honor for him to have the opportunity to worship under the door of Master Wang, when had been. Studying under Wang Anshi is Zheng Xia's proudest thing, and he agrees with the changes proposed by the teacher. The situation in the Great Song Dynasty is already quite serious, and it is the reform of the law.

After being admitted to the Jinshi as an official, he took it as his own responsibility and decided to follow the teacher to do a big career. But when he got to the place, he gradually found that the change seemed to be not like that, and many places were different from what he had heard and imagined before. The people's lives have not improved as a result, and the situation is still very bad......

There is a problem with the change. Zheng Xia felt that he had an obligation and had to tell his teacher about it as soon as possible. Let the teacher refer to the details of what is wrong and whether it should be improved or corrected......

Gradually, Zheng Xia realized that the problem of changing the law was no longer a problem of improvement and correction, and there was something fundamentally wrong. As Lin Dongyang said...... Lin Zhao came back from Hangzhou. When he refuted the Qingmiao Law, he also disgusted Lin Zhao, thinking that he was talking nonsense and ingratitude. But when he saw it with his own eyes, Zheng Xia could finally be sure that Lin Zhao was not nonsense. But it is true......

But no matter what, this matter should be told to the teacher. You have to let him know that from beginning to end, Zheng Xia has a sincere heart, whether it is character or loyalty. and respect for teachers. Speaking out is the proper performance of a loyal person, and when encountering such a situation. Zheng Xia's first thought was not to get promoted and make a fortune, but to be selfish......

But he never expected that when he returned to Bianjing and said these words, he would get such a result. Of course, he did not quote in front of his teacher Wang Anshi, but relayed it through Wang Yan and Lu Huiqing.

The teacher didn't listen at all!

He finally realized the stubbornness of the reluctant minister, and he lived up to his name! If that's all it takes, if you don't listen to your own opinions, you'll be put into the category of ungrateful, and you'll be belittled and insulted like this. Is this the way it is to be disobedient? If Zheng Xia was too benevolent, he couldn't be sure of Wang Yan's means for this, he thought, maybe it was his teacher Wang Xianggong's approval......

This is what makes him the most sad, is the friendship between teachers and students so worthless? Really......

If that's all it takes, isn't it just some suffering? He didn't care too much about the future or something, and he could still endure the humiliation. What he is sad about is always the attitude of his teacher, there is a problem with changing the Fa, and if the teacher keeps going like this, sooner or later there will be a problem......

But I don't have a chance to persuade anymore, so what's the use of persuading even if I do? All Zheng Xia left was a cold smile, which made him tremble a little......

At this time, only by drinking can you get a moment of peace after getting drunk! Peacefulness? Zheng Xia squeezed out a wry smile, and he could only use wine to temporarily numb himself!

Zheng Xia, who was drunk and hazy, couldn't help but feel a little moist in his eyes while drinking, maybe he would cry the next moment. But at this time, a figure appeared in front of him and shouted, "Brother Jiefu? Is that you? ”

Zheng Xia, the word Jiefu!

I don't know how long it has been since no one called his cousin, Zheng Xia was still a little unaccustomed to it for a moment, and his heart was even more sad.

"Who? Brother Yu Tian? Zheng Xia was drunk and hazy, and he couldn't identify the person who came, so he didn't dare to confirm it!

"It's me!"

Xu Rong, whose name is Yu Tian, is Zheng Xia's classmate when he was in Taixue, but there is not much friendship between the two, just sharing a bed.

"What is Brother Yu Tian doing here?" Zheng Xia's question was a little direct and a little rude. On weekdays, he is also cautious in his words and deeds, and he is very polite, but in such a situation, where can he take care of so much?

Fortunately, Xu Rong didn't care about it, and said with a faint wry smile: "What else, it's just borrowing wine to drown your sorrows!" ”

"Oh? Could it be that you and I are both fallen people at the end of the world? Zheng Xia looked at Xu Rong's figure a little more kindly.

"Hey, where can I compare with Brother Jiefu...... Little brother, I have fallen many times in a row, and the imperial examination is hopeless...... In the year of seeing it, I am afraid that the career in this life is hopeless. ”

"Don't be melancholy, what can you do if you get in? Is it a promising career if you win the Jinshi? Can you serve the court? Zheng Xia smiled coldly, greatly disapproving.

Xu Rong pretended to be puzzled: "Why did Brother Jiefu say this?" ”

"Don't you know?"

Xu Rong hurriedly explained that because the imperial examination was landed, he had never gone out at home for many years, and the news was closed.

Zheng Xia used the spirit of alcohol to bring his tragic experience to this former classmate one by one, and finally found someone to confide in, where could Zheng Xia endure it. Like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, everyone is said at once......

Xu Rong also seemed to be drunk, drinking with Zheng Xia cup after glass, but his eyes were always mirror-like, and he remained sober from beginning to end.

The fall of the imperial examination is not a big deal, how could he borrow wine to drown his sorrows for such a thing? This Zheng Xia is a rigid reader! But fortunately, I have had such an experience, otherwise how could I be favored by the sect master and do such an errand?

/>

I thought it would be a little difficult to make friends with Zheng Xia, but now it seems to be easy! As for what to do next, everything is just waiting for the sect master's orders.

It turned out that Lin Zhao's existence was highly classified. Not everyone in the Bright Moon Sect knows about it, and most of the people who know the truth are the leaders, as well as the attendants whose loyalty is absolutely reliable. Xu Rong belonged to the peripheral forces, he only knew the existence of the sect master, and he didn't even know who the sect master's true identity was.

But he is very loyal, as long as it is the matter that the sect master explains, there will naturally be no difference! Since then, when Zheng Xia comes to drink, he will always have one more person to accompany him. At the same time, the end of the world has fallen into people, and Xu Rong can be regarded as sympathy, and there is comfort between each other......

Gradually, there were more contacts between the two, and the relationship became much closer...... (To be continued.)
