Chapter 15 Guangdong Raiders

On the tenth day, Yan Tianwu left. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info but left a melancholy Zhao Zheng.

Being said to be lonely by a ten-year-old girl, no matter how you say it, there is a kind of funny and ridiculous meaning, but she undoubtedly said it in her heart.

Maybe you should go out more to breathe, maybe you can't have friends who can really talk to, but in the Southern Song Dynasty, there are really relatives like relatives.

So on the night after Yan Tianwu left, Zhao Zheng brought a basin of foot washing water to Huang Daochang, but Huang Daochang deeply doubted whether Zhao Zheng was in trouble or was ready to be lazy, so he showed great affection, so that he didn't let Zhao Zheng do anything in the next few days.

Zhao Zheng also began to try to guide Da Lang and Erlang's studies, not making up a story to coax them every day, but Da Lang Erlang said that unless he told them those stories, he would not talk about anything else.

In the late autumn of the end of October, Zhao Zheng took the initiative to visit Shi Songzhi's official residence, and when the porter heard that Zhao Zheng was coming to visit, he did not go to report it, so he welcomed Zhao Zheng into the house first.

The concierge is from Shi Songzhi's hometown of Yinxian County, Mingzhou, named Shi Da, in his forties, is Shi Songzhi's cronies, and he usually has a little thin noodles in the mansion or Zaoyang, but this time he didn't dare to snub Zhao Zheng at all. This is because his master often thinks about the living immortals who were appointed by the official family at home, which annoyed him, and his soul was taken away that day, and he didn't know how he died.

"Little fairy chief, please use tea, at this time, the good Longjing brought from my hometown, the master ordered, as long as the little fairy chief comes, no matter what, don't slack off."

Star's face was flattering, and he was condescending. Zhao Zheng was still a little unaccustomed to telling the truth, and said lightly: "It's so hard." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." Seeing Zhao Zheng talking to him so politely, he couldn't help but float, but he didn't dare to stay for a long time, for fear that he would be ugly and be looked down upon by Zhao Zheng.

But after a while, Shi Songzhi arrived, and apologized again and again: "The little fairy chief suddenly visited this time, Shi was very surprised, I don't know what advice I have this time." ”

"No, I just wanted to come out to breathe, so I stopped by to visit, and I didn't bother the Zhijun."

Shi Songzhi listened, there were ripples, Zhao Zheng visited like an old friend, he naturally couldn't ask for it, and smiled: "It turned out that Xiaoxian Changjing was very moved, I don't know if Xiaoxian Changxi likes fishing." ”

Zhao Zheng shook his head: "I don't like to be so dull, by the way, my lord, my map is still accurate?" ”

Speaking of this, Shi Songzhi couldn't help but stand up: "It is worthy of being an immortal thing, it is an accurate anomaly, but some place names do not match." ”

Zhao Zheng disguised: "I added the name of the place, and I was a shallow learner, which made the adults laugh." ”

"The flaws are not hidden, with this map, there will be a basis for marching and fighting in the future." As he spoke, Shi Songzhi remembered one more thing: "By the way, last time you talked about Mongolia, according to the spies in front, there is indeed a gap between Natori and Wokotai. It's just that Mongolia has not been around for a long time, and there are no talents who are particularly familiar with it in the Great Song Dynasty, and the fine works sent out are afraid that it will be difficult to separate them. ”

Zhao Zheng thought for a while, in fact, he already had a draft, and the reason why he wanted to think about it a little was to make Shi Songzhi think that he came up with a plan at will, and raised his image as a master: "There is no need to be divided, the battle for the throne needs to be divided, just give them a mouth to fight." Among the four sons of Temujin, the eldest son Jochi died three years ago, and the second son Chagatai supported the third son, Ogedai, but Torre had the most military achievements and was known as prestige in the army, and most of Temujin's troops were inherited by him, so he had the capital to compete with Ogedei. Therefore, as long as we send people to pretend to be Mongols to attack and kill Ögedai, whether it succeeds or not, Ögedai will inevitably suspect that Torrey did it, and the truth will be found, and the Mongol split is imminent. ”

Shi Songzhi closed his eyes, carefully thought about what Zhao Zheng said, and sighed faintly for a long time: "The immortal chief has a good strategy, but this lone army went deep into Mongolia to attack and kill Chagatai, how easy it is to say, and the grassland is wide, and it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find Wokotai." What's more, there is still a golden treasure between us and Mongolia. ”

"Tell Jin Ko about this, they are more anxious than us. They know Mongolia better than we do, and there are teachers who do not hesitate to get a glimpse of the heavens again for this matter, and the heavens will say: next summer, the land of Wokotai to the snow of Kuluban. ”

This is a passage in the history of the Yuan Dynasty, as for what is the place where the snow is not only in Huluban, Zhao Zheng guessed that it should be Turpan, Turpan is a transliteration, so it is normal for the text to have some discrepancies, snow is not only, it should be snow not to, which means that there will be no snow, Turpan is known as China's three major furnaces, and it basically does not snow, so gather before and after, Wokotai should go to Turpan to meet Torrey next summer.

After listening to Zhao Zheng's analysis, Shi Songzhi nodded: "That's very good!" ”

Zhao Zheng came this time in order to do a more important thing, to go deep into the desert, attack and kill Wokotai, the success rate is really a bit low, it is better to do a good job of their own internal strength, when the national strength is strong, why bend like this.

"My lord, last time I told you about the trial planting on Quang Nam East Road, sweet potatoes and potatoes. I wonder if the two governments have approved it? Those two crops like heat and good sun, and the land of Quang Nam is just feasible, and the higher the temperature, the faster the growth of sweet potatoes. "Guangnan East Road is now Guangdong, which has been gradually developed in the Southern Song Dynasty, but it is not deserted.

"Quang Nam is located in a remote area, few people visit, the court princes are not willing to take risks, want to be safe, and plant again in the spring of next year. In this matter, the little fairy chief does not have to be in a hurry. Shi Songzhi said in a deep voice, he actually supported the court's approach in his heart.

Zhao Zheng also knew that the two governments of the court attached great importance to potatoes and sweet potatoes, and it should be safer, but sweet potatoes were popularized as early as January, and many people in the world would be less hungry for a month.

"It is reasonable for the court to consider it like this, but sweet potatoes are related to the stomachs of people all over the world, and Zhao Zheng still hopes that it will benefit the world as soon as possible, so Zhao Zheng is willing to go to Guangdong in person to supervise the planting."

Shi Songzhi immediately stood up: "No, there are many miasma in the land of Guangnan, and the little fairy must not be missed." ”

Zhao Zheng was a little puzzled, the history books said that Guangdong had been developed in the Song Dynasty, and Guangzhou had built three cities, and when the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms were in place, the Southern Han Dynasty took Guangzhou as the national capital, which should not be a barren place.

"Only the Yingde and Deqing generations of the Quang Nam generation are good places, and the rest are all places of exile and criminals. The little fairy is long for the world, Shi admires, but if the little fairy has a mistake, the world will miss a lot. Shi Songzhi said earnestly, Zhao Zheng is now the treasure in his hands, and the popularity of those three crops is indispensable to his contributions, so it is not impossible to enter the two mansions. What's more, Zhao Zheng also gave the Shi family a mountain of gold and silver, which is a great kindness.

Zhao Zheng smiled: "The poisonous miasma is not misunderstood by the world, so naturally it can't hurt me, adults have said that I am an immortal, and I will be hurt by those things." On this trip, I went to Guangzhou, and I also planned to build a Taoist temple there to teach and educate the world. ”

Zhao Zheng's words made Shi Songzhi speechless, and he couldn't force Zhao Zheng to go: "It's okay, it's just that everything is annoying Xiaoxian, so I'll go to the court and transfer a box army to open an army." ”

"I also ask Shi Zhijun to ventilate first and transfer some people who are familiar with his cronies to come over, Zhao Zheng's reputation is not obvious, but I am afraid that some sergeants will not be convinced."

"Little Immortal Chief don't worry, Shi will be fully prepared. There is one more thing, please wait for a while. Shi Songzhi said goodbye.

After waiting for about half an hour, Shi Songzhi asked the family to carry a few boxes of things out, dismissed everyone and said: "The output of the silver mine in Zhushan has been expanding in the past few months, and the monthly output is not accurate, so I didn't inform Xiaoxian Chang, but don't worry, I have discussed it with my uncle Wang Fucai, you account for 20% of the silver mine, Wang Fucai let Bancheng come out, and I will let Bancheng come out again, and add 10% to Xiaoxianchang." In these three months, he received four hundred twenty-five taels of gold, and seven thousand seven hundred and fifty taels of silver......

Zhao Zheng didn't wait for Shi Songzhi to finish speaking, then stopped and said: "I only account for one percent, Shi Zhijun's kind intentions have taken the lead, don't talk about this matter in the future." I hope that adults will not treat Wang Yuanwai as a businessman. ”

What and Wang Fucai each give half of it, with the reputation of the historian who is greedy for money in history, I am afraid that if Wang Fucai spit out that one percent, of course Zhao Zheng will not let Wang Fucai feel cold.

Shi Songzhi saw that Zhao Zheng was a little angry, and he felt a little sorry in his heart, but he wouldn't show it: "The little fairy is really virtuous." ”

"These silver taels will be placed here by the Zhijun first, and they will leave for Guangnan in two days, and they will come to ask for it." After speaking, Zhao Zheng also greeted him and left directly.

Shi Songzhi saw that Zhao Zheng was really angry, a little unreasonable, is a businessman really so important? To the scholars, the merchants were nothing more than a herd of fat pigs to be slaughtered.

――

Zhao Zheng out of the history of the house, then went to the Baiyun Library, that is the Baiyun Taoist Temple funding, free for the people of Zaoyang to read, the Song Dynasty's literacy rate is the highest in ancient China, about 30%, but Zaoyang is located in the two countries at war, although the literary luck is not prosperous, there has been no talent, but there are many people who read and write, so there are dozens of people who come to read and read every day.

The Baiyun Taoist Temple won the praise of Zaoyang scholars, and the development of paper printing technology in the Song Dynasty reduced the price of books a lot, but it was not something that ordinary people could consume and buy at will.

Zhao Zheng directly set up a bookstore, and then converted it into a bookstore.

The study invited a down-and-out boy to consul, in his twenties, named Charter, born in a poor family, and he was not admitted to Xiucai for several years, and his family was overwhelmed by this, cutting off his way to study. But I didn't expect the notice of Baiyun Taoist Temple to recruit the shopkeeper of the bookstore to be posted, and I came to apply for the job without thinking about it.

Seeing that Zhao Zheng was coming, the charter hurriedly put down the books in his hand and welcomed Zhao Zheng in, he was very grateful to Zhao Zheng, there were a few talents who went to apply for the job that day, but Zhao Zheng chose him.

Zhao Zheng didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly: "Recently, what is the most borrowed book?" ”
