Chapter 143: The Invisible Sword Shadow

"This Zhang Hong, born in Jiangnan, is just a poor family. In the former Sui period, he was recommended to enter the office, and he took a little luck. Next, he was promoted step by step and became the county magistrate of Wannian. When Datang conquered Chang'an, it was retained. Later, the capital of the Tang Dynasty was Chang'an, and the subordinate counties of Chang'an were directly upgraded to Beijing County, and they actually changed from a seven-pin county order to a five-pin county order? Hey, did he encounter such a good thing? But then, didn't get promoted? An old man in his fifties has a slim future! According to what he hinted at before, the one who plotted against me was a prince of the kingdom and a prime minister. In addition, Zhang Hong was born in Jiangnan, although he is not a scholar, but I am afraid that he has a constant relationship with the Jiangnan scholar. ”

But what is he doing here? He is already fifty years old, can an old official like him not know the truth of being kind to others? How dare he, a lame duck, fall out with me directly? Even Pei Ju and Tang Jian, the two Sanpin Shangshu, know that they must have a good relationship with me, and they can't offend me too much, and even don't hesitate to show favor to me. The two Shangshu knew that my future would definitely be not small, and they were afraid that I would retaliate against them after people left. But this little Wupin county order, actually has the courage to face me face to face? Even if he snatched the credit from me, it wouldn't be his turn to get the credit? At his age, there is no future, so what about the credit he gets? Do you want to go further? It's impossible, who doesn't know that when you are a civil official, age is a treasure! If you don't have an age advantage, you will have to be squeezed down sooner or later. It seems that the whole story is not yet complete. Shi Bufan thought.

According to the current information, if you want to be extraordinary, it is nothing more than two people. According to the news revealed by Zhang Hong, it is nothing more than Chen Shuda, who is a servant of the door, or Xiao Yu, the right servant of Shangshu. These two are people from the wealthy families in Jiangnan, and they even used to be royalty. Their representatives are all spokespersons of the wealthy family in Jiangnan, and at present, one is a servant, and the other is a servant of Shangshu, both of whom are prime ministers. And they all have the title of duke, which is in line with their information.

However, at present, the left servant of Shangshu Province is already a paper tiger, and as for the right servant shooting Xiao Yu, he has a certain amount of power, because the right servant is in charge of the Ministry of Rites, the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Industry, which just avoids the military department and the official department controlled by Du Ruhui. Fang Xuanling has no need to engage in extraordinary affairs at this time, because their conflict is not too big, and it does not involve core interests, so there is no need for Fang Xuanling to engage him. Pei Lin is already a paper tiger, and the rest are Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu.

"However, did Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu, the two old officials, see it? Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu must know that they will soon be dismissed by Li Shimin. Back then, the prime minister of Li Yuan's era, Pei Lin was already a paper tiger, what else could they do? How could they, who have been in the officialdom all their lives, and even used to be members of the royal family, not understand the situation of a son of heaven and a courtier? Shi Bufan bit his pen again and thought about it.

According to common sense, this kind of old bureaucrat from the royal family best understands the truth of a son of heaven and a courtier. These two guys are still doing something at this time, what the hell are they trying to do? According to the original history, this Chen Shuda can be said to have been removed from his post and never got up again. But this Xiao Yu has also been up and down several times, and he was made miserable by Li Shimin. But they were helpless, because once a son of heaven and a courtier, with their political wisdom, they didn't know that their political life was about to end, so didn't they hurry up and hide some?

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the reason why Li Shimin removed the two prime ministers from the post in the original history is really absurd enough. It was actually because the two prime ministers fought and quarreled with each other, so the two prime ministers were removed from their positions? This is obviously a lot of cats, not to mention whether the two literati will fight in public, even if they do? This excuse is too far-fetched, but it shows that Li Shimin is bound to withdraw the two guys.

"If I think about it from another perspective, the two top spokesmen of the Jiangnan Hao clan have lost their position as prime ministers, then what should they do? This kind of old political group, it is impossible to be so stupid, it must have been prepared for a long time. By the way, do they want my achievements in Wannian County as a peach picking? It seems that the Jiangnan Haozu group represented by Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu does not want to cultivate a new generation of political spokespersons. At this time, I made a performance in Wannian County, which is obviously an amazing performance, and they want to kick me out when the performance is not prominent, so that I can come directly to pick peaches? If so, then the explanation has passed! Shi Bufan thought.

Since Shi Bufan has some guesses, he naturally has to verify his guesses. He asked people to hurry up to ask Shangshu Zuocheng Dai Guan, Dai Zhou has now been adjusted from Shaoqing of Dali Temple to Shangshu Zuo Cheng, and his status is somewhat equivalent to that of the director of the General Office of the Central Committee in later generations, and the official documents of each ministry must be sent to him for preliminary processing and circulation.

"Shi County male, Dai Guanzuocheng said that the recent transfer of the five officials, that is, someone proposed to transfer Shi Liuxun, the governor of Nankangdu, to Chang'an. However, it was only an informal proposal, and it seemed to be just a test and was not officially presented. ”

"Sure enough, it turned out to be Liu Xun! Liu Xun, the future prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, no wonder! According to the historical situation, Liu Xun is most likely the spokesperson of the Jiangnan Hao family in the Tang Dynasty and a member of the Liu family in Jiangnan. Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu already knew that their political lives were coming to an end, and the Jiangnan wealthy family began to select a new generation of spokespersons. This Liu Xun, whose position is the governor of Lingnan Nankangdu, is a five-grade official. But when I came back from the place where the birds don't poop in Lingnan, it was simply the ancestral tomb with green smoke, and if there was no one behind it, it would be a strange thing! Shi Bufan thought.

Shi Bufan probably knew this Liu Xun's later political process, he was originally from the position of governor of Nankang Governor's Mansion, but was transferred to Menxia Province in the seventh year of Zhenguan. Although it is nominally a horizontal transfer, according to the ancient officials, from the local to the central, let alone a flat transfer, even a slight reduction is considered a promotion. Released from the central government, according to various rules, in principle, it is necessary to upgrade the level, otherwise even if it is flat, it will be degraded.

Especially Lingnan, Lingnan is where Guangdong and Guangxi in later generations. In later generations, Guangdong was a major economic province, but now it is just a place where birds don't. With the ability to communicate in ancient times, even if they made achievements there, it was difficult for the central government to know. If there is no one to help him speak, then it will be difficult for him to level out from the place where the bird does not poop to the center.

What's more, he is still transferred to the core position of Menxia Province, even if many officials would rather be demoted by themselves, they also hope to go to Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province to serve as Zhongshu Sheren or give things, but it is a miracle that he has not been demoted from that place where birds don't.

"If Liu Xun wants to be the prime minister, there must be a political group behind him, and now it seems that the force behind him is the Jiangnan Hao Group, and he is the spokesperson of a new generation who has been trained by the Jiangnan Hao family. Now people are already warming up, and the warm-up has transferred Liu Xun to Chang'an to take up a post, and he actually wants to rob me of my political achievements. It's really unbearable, it seems that I made a performance, but it made these Jiangnan wealthy families take a fancy to it. I took a fancy to my performance, and wanted to come over to pick peaches in advance, and decided in advance the spokesperson of the new generation of political groups. ”

"These guys are really insidious, if it weren't for that guy Zhang Hong, who didn't keep his mouth open, I wouldn't have thought of it here!"

Shi Bufan finally let out a breath, and it was already obvious who was plotting against him at the moment. Moreover, the enemy's purpose is combined with the history that he knows at the time, and he probably also knows what the enemy's purpose is. It's nothing more than an extraordinary time, and they will soon make good achievements, and these Jiangnan wealthy families want to pick peaches. As long as you have a little political vision, you will know how great the performance is that Shi Bufan is about to make, and this organizational management model is a huge invention.

When the time comes, the person who makes this achievement will be able to get a rapid promotion, and even become a huge political capital in one step. The wealthy family in Jiangnan fell in love with Shi Bufan's political capital and wanted to come over to pick peaches.

Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu have begun to prepare to "retreat from the second line", so that the spokesperson of the new generation of Jiangnan wealthy families is ready to come out. But if you want to be promoted quickly, you must have opportunities, and this extraordinary performance is also a huge opportunity. Even a political capital that can't be eaten up in a lifetime, of course, they don't want to be extraordinary. What is Shi Bufan, isn't it just a cold door? They couldn't look down on it, so they naturally wanted to kick Shi Bufan away and come over to pick peaches.

"Hey, this officialdom is really dangerous! You are being calculated in a daze, and even if you are calculated, you don't know who is calculating you. If it weren't for this nonsense that Zhang Hong's mouth didn't open the door, plus the general information of several important prime ministers who I was familiar with the original history, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to speculate that this was plotting against me by the wealthy family in Jiangnan. I have no grievances with them, but they have taken a fancy to my achievements and want to come and pick peaches. ”

"If you want to pick my peaches, then I don't blame me for shooting you directly. It's not that easy to pick my peaches! ”

Shi Bufan then said to Qin Jiarui: "Jiarui, you should have a network in the business field, right?" ”

"It's okay!" Qin Jiarui was not too confident.

"Generally speaking, in your group of businessmen, everyone who can become big is behind them, do you know who is behind Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda?" Shi Bufan asked.

Qin Jiarui thought for a while: "This kind of is actually very obvious among our high-level businessmen. has reached our level, and there are people from the government behind the scenes, who are taking care of them openly and secretly. We don't want the government to help us make a profit, we just want to avoid the loss of property. And I'm still thanks to you, as well as Sister Dugu Daxue, otherwise I'm afraid it will be difficult for me. But in the future, my wealth will become more and more, and I am afraid that Dugu Daxue will not be able to cover it by a Shang Palace! ”

Qin Jiarui supports Shi Bufan to climb up, in fact, he also hopes that Shi Bufan can keep her industry. Of course, Qin Jiarui can't trust Dugu Daxue, as Qin Jiarui's industry gets bigger and bigger, Dugu Daxue will definitely not be able to cover a female official. And Qin Jiarui doesn't want to owe Dugu Daxue, once Dugu Daxue protects her industry in the future, what if Dugu Daxue simply swallows it directly? Qin Jiarui believes that he is only Dugu Daxue, so she can only believe in Shi Bufan, and at this time she hopes that Shi Bufan can climb up.

"If you want to say who is Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu's people, this is actually obvious. For example, all kinds of candied fruit industries in Chang'an are closely related to the wealthy families in Jiangnan. In our north, most of it is mainly plains, so the most grain is grown. However, in Jiangnan, the population is small, so there is not much food. However, the south is rich in various fruits, citrus dates and other things are good for candied fruit. As far as I know, most of the candied fruit industry is related to Jiangnan wealthy families. Qin Jiarui said.

Shi Bufan also agreed with Qin Jiarui's judgment, because during the Tang Dynasty, the economic center had not completely moved south. After the Song Dynasty, the south can be developed at a high speed, and the current south is not too developed, and the grain output is mainly based on the Central Plains. At present, Jiangnan is not mainly producing grain, and at home, the population of Datang has experienced a sharp decline in population in troubled times, and food is not in short supply. Therefore, in order to maintain a certain profit at this time, Jiangnan may mainly plant some cash crops. For example, some fruits are suitable for growing fruits in Jiangnan.

However, fruits are not easy to preserve, so it is good to make preserves. Of course, Jiangnan is far more than just a candied fruit industry, Shi Bufan has also personally opened up a tea industry, which is an industry suitable for the development of Jiangnan.

However, the candied fruit of the Jiangnan economic industry is not a big or small industry, and the candied fruit is used to keep the fruit fresh, and then given to those officials and nobles to eat. The added value of the product is indeed not small, but if you want to go through the channels of bureaucracy and aristocrats, you must first be introduced, otherwise you will be stunned to sell it, and people will beat you out. In this way, the support of the Jiangnan wealthy family is indispensable, and there must also be the Jiangnan wealthy family to protect in the officialdom. So it seems that Chang'an's candied fruit industry is inseparable from the Jiangnan wealthy family.

"Jia Rui, you go and collect these candied fruit industries, see if there are those people who are related to Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu, give me this information. You're in business, so it should be easier to get your hands on some. Shi Bufan said.

Qin Jiarui immediately asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'm going to Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu!" Shi Bufan said.

Hearing that Shi Bufan was going to "engage" Chen Shuda and Xiao Yu, Qin Jiarui's face suddenly turned pale with fright, these are two prime ministers, you must know that they can make Qin Jiarui, a businessman, close the door with a word.

After Shi Bufan was repeatedly appeased, Qin Jiarui dared to collect information, Shi Bufan took a sip of tea and said, "Since you put cold arrows, then don't blame me for stabbing you with a knife!" If you use someone else to cut the knife, then I can't manage it and I don't want to care about it. However, you actually used me to open the knife, then I'm sorry, I naturally have to stab you first in order to save myself. (To be continued.) )
