Before the meeting, Cai Jing got to know each other a little and knew that Zhu Chong was just a wealthy businessman who was in the pharmaceutical business. It is said that the character is very good? He can give up his clothes in cold weather, and the sick can administer medicine, and he can be called a rich and benevolent philanthropic rich man... Good! Then let's see it!

After meeting, I found that Zhu Chong was really in love, he had the style of zero refusal to serve back then, and he treated high-ranking officials in the capital wholeheartedly and flattered them in every way, even if they were demoted. For the matter of building a monk's house, he smiled slightly, saying that there is no need to find someone else, please give a thin face, some small things, I can do it alone!

Cai Jing was suspicious that the house he was going to build was quite large, more than a dozen monks' dormitories. Unexpectedly, only a few days later, Zhu Chong invited him to the construction site, and as soon as he arrived at the scene, Cai Jing was shocked. He came from the capital, and he has seen the real world, but he has rarely seen such efficiency and ability!

Thousands of chapters of large timber are neatly placed on the site, and when the workers arrive, they can start work immediately. This Zhu Chong... It's not easy! Cai Jing realized this and decided to take the talent by his side. Talent is always the most important asset. Before Cai Jing returned to Beijing, when he proposed to bring Zhu Chong with him, Zhu Chong did not hesitate at all, quickly put the huge family business away, and followed Cai Jing away...

After entering Beijing, Cai Jing put Zhu Chong'an under Tong Guan and became a member of the army. After that, Zhu Chong's role was quickly manifested. Cai Jing was able to use a few small boxwood trees and a few Taihu stones to make the emperor's eyes shine, and that was all due to Zhu Chong!

This is very rare, in officialdom and shopping malls, one trick can indeed be eaten all over the world, but it is time-sensitive. Who can suffocate an opponent for a long time with one style and one move? Zhu Chongneng!

Don't forget: Tong Guan also went to Jiangnan in person to collect artworks for Zhao Ji, will he come into contact with fewer southern players? In addition, there is information that when Cai Jing brought the southern flowers and trees into the palace, many powerful forces were the first to follow suit, sent people to Jiangnan to search for novelties, and paid tribute to the emperor. Among them is Cai Jing, the eldest son who is better than blue and cruel to his father like an enemy.

Cai Dagongzi's greatest wish is to subvert his father and replace him! How can this opportunity to invite merit and favor make Daddy beautiful? He sent people to Jiangnan to bring back all kinds of objects, but unfortunately none of them could enter the eyes of Zhao Ji of Song Huizong! Ultimately. It's because he doesn't have Zhu Chong's procurement ability...

At this time, the Zhu family has nothing to hide, what is the background of the best procurement? Do you spend the least amount of money to buy the best thing? No! By no means like this, only those who deeply understand the details of the Zhu family will know what the Zhu family wants to do!

This is determined by origin. At this time, the Song Dynasty basically set the shape of all walks of life, such as the most praised commerce. How many wealthy families collude with high-ranking officials and nobles and even the harem, and their interests are interlocking, and even Wang Anshi can't dismantle them, forming an incomparably stable circle... Until now. There are no more seats, no gaps have been blocked, and the vast majority of people who want to start from scratch are desperate...

And Zhu Chong, in this harsh environment, was close to abject poverty at first, and he had to rely on being a helper to barely survive!

Zhu Chong was very unsuccessful when he was a coolie, not to mention his ability, and it is said that he is not strong among the people of Suzhou. But there is still a problem with personality. This man is intelligent, cunning, stubborn, and restless. The specific manifestation is disobedience, to the point of being unruly. That's not going to make a difference. Tragedy is only a matter of time. Zhu Chong not only lost his job, but was also severely whipped...

It looks miserable, but this is the beginning of his new life! Otherwise, he would just be a good coolie. Why did passer-by A in this era become the largest official purchaser in the Song Dynasty today?

The miserable Zhu Chong escaped from his hometown with a whip mark and went to a neighboring state and county to hide from the limelight. God knows what is in the crowd of beings, that is, he has been lucky? An ordinary dodge from the limelight. Actually let him climb to the sky in one step!

He had an adventure, and a strange man gave him some strange prescriptions. Medicine is the most amazing thing in the world, one of the few things that can quickly turn a destitute person into a rich man! There is one thing to refer to. Jews do business. It has always adhered to the two ancestral teachings of jewelry and restaurants to make money. The reason is that as long as the man has money, the woman will take it out to buy jewelry. If you are a human being, you have to eat, even in war, restaurants have business... So Changsheng is undefeated!

They were wrong! Medicine is the most profitable because it is the most necessary. In contrast, there are many women who do not buy jewelry and more people who eat ordinary food. But medicine is different! It is always indispensable, and the price of iron is the same, even in the face of customers, pharmacies and doctors are superior! What a cow! Whether it was the Song Dynasty a thousand years ago or the modern era a thousand years later, medicine can quickly make a rich man! Zhu Chong is rich, but he has become more sober, he remembers that there is such a rule in the safety code for the rich, "rich have no right to be bullied" has no solid background, money is just a thing that causes trouble, and it can't bring any happiness! So he climbed on Cai Jing's shoulders, and now when the emperor sets up the Suzhou Yingfeng Bureau, he can finally serve the royal family directly...

However, with such a major task, Zhu Chong also felt powerless, and a newcomer stepped onto the stage of history!

This person is very legendary, as Zhu Chong's son, he has no background or education, and he has actually mixed up with Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Liang Shicheng, the three peak-level imperial moths!

Cai Moth is the prime minister of the empire and has the official right to speak. The child moth is an armed eunuch who controls the Northwest Army, the strongest force in the empire. As an imperial invisible, Liang Moth can write his will into the emperor's holy decree as he wants. These 3 people almost divided the empire into three parts, what else can Zhu Zi do? Why should you stand up to others?

Very simply, the above three people are divided into the party, the government, and the military. But it doesn't include wealth! Comrade Xiao Zhu filled this gap!

His name is Zhu Mian. When he walked to the front desk, the people of the Song Dynasty, who were known as the richest race, were collectively unlucky, far from being a few more taxes and urging ruthlessly... It's that simple!

The first step is to get a salary for the emperor, and it is to get it first! Zhu Mian went to the treasury to spend money first, and the amount was completely arbitrary, under the title of "Ying Feng Bureau", which yamen dared to check his accounts? After getting the money, take a boat across the Yangtze River, and the flowers, birds, fish, and insects in the entire south are all within the envelope. Such as Taihu Lake stone, a certain piece of super huge, magical shape, Zhu Mian specially built a huge ship and transported it into the capital. Zhao Ji was overjoyed when he saw it, rewarded each stevedore with a golden bowl, and sealed this stone as the stone with the title of "Marquis of Pangu"?

A certain piece of Lingbi stone, more than 2 zhang high and wide, thousands of people can't carry it, and when it is transported into the capital, it is to remove the city gate before entering. Zhao Ji thinks this is a sacred object. I wrote 6 big characters in my own hand, "Qingyun Wantai Qifeng", and hung it with a gold belt hanging stone. The stone that became an immortal?

There is a Tang Dynasty cypress tree in front of the Wukong Zen Master Tower in Huating County, and the branches and leaves are covered with a huge crown, and even Huating County cannot be transported out. What to do? Tear down the pavilion, build a giant ship, and walk from the sea. As a result, one day there was a great storm on the sea, the huge canopy and sails were entangled, the ship overturned the trees, and the whole ship drowned...

These are just some of the well-known exceptions, which can be planned to be produced in nature according to their characteristics. The good things in this range are almost searched, and Zhu Mian set his sights on another place - man-made!

It is said that the king of Chu loves a thin waist, and many beauties starve to death. It can be seen that the emperor's preference is the weather vane, and the whole people learn. At this time, Zhao Ji loved the mountain stone. People in the Jiangnan area are surging.

For example, a person named Uncle Wei Qing in Zhejiang has a rockery in his garden. This "fake" mountain stretches for more than 20 acres of land, and more than 40 pavilions have been built at various scenic spots. For example, the retired squire Yu Ziqing is on a higher level, and his "fake" mountain is undulating and extensive, with more than 100 peaks on it, and the height is as high as two or three zhang. Are not too decorated, preserve the original mountain charm, during which the rhino jade tree, the forest is densely covered with "like a garden of jade." Strange and indescribable" other small and medium-sized households, after accumulating nearly a century and a half of peace and wealth, there are many such things. How could Zhu Mian let them go? The whole world is not the king's land! They should all be collected. To the Emperor!

This process shows Zhu Mian's kung fu, first of all, he can know who has good things in Lu Dao. Next, Zhu Mian's subordinates would come uninvited, break into the door, and put a piece of yellow silk on the thing. This is the royal tribute! No one is allowed to move, let alone be harmed! As for whether the damage exists and to what extent? It is directly linked to the contribution of the owner of the household to Zhu Mian's satisfaction with the blackmail. If the contribution value is insufficient, then if there is an injury, there is an injury, and there is no injury? Gently pushed down and shattered. Is there any injury this time? After the injury, the royal product entered the protection waiting period. It must be kept by the original owner until the various selected royal items reach a certain number and are shipped together...

When it sets off, it is a nightmare for all the original owners... No matter how big the royal item is, the porter never walks the door, but demolishes the wall and carries out three-dimensional relocation. The day of the relocation caused a stir in the city, countless walls were torn down, countless houses collapsed, and there were almost no exceptions in the chaos. The royal item has been moved, and all other valuable things in the house are gone... And that's just the beginning of the nightmare.

There is also a second level, transported into the capital, how to do this process? The Song Dynasty operated for nearly 150 years, and the water systems of the empire were connected to Kaifeng, Kyoto. The transportation of grain, vegetables, and special products from various places has long been a rule.

Zhu Mian, as the "Director of Yingfeng", originally had a special ship and a transporter, but he collected too many things, and whispered: Far from being specially transported to Zhao Ji, his family, Cai Jing's family, Tong Guan's family, Liang Shicheng's family... And so on are inserted in the middle, each family has a big garden, isn't it normal to piggyback some? So the means of transport in Zhu Mian's hands were not enough... Inadequate? Simple! As far as the eye can see, there are boats on the river, and each one belongs to the people of the Great Song Dynasty, so every one can be requisitioned! From this time on, the most terrifying word appeared in the land of China, called "Huashi Gang"

"Gang" refers to a transport team, generally 10 ships are called a "Gang". Huashi refers to the natural artworks collected in the south of the Yangtze River during this period. Since the appearance of Huashigang, the transportation of the Great Song Empire has been paralyzed! Regardless of whether it is on the waterway or on land, or even in the sea, as long as Zhu Mian is seen when he is engaged in transportation, he will be caught immediately: the original things are put down, and they are all loaded with flowers, birds, fish, insects, old trees and strange stones, and head to the capital!

To sum up, the above collection is controlled in two aspects: the natural world and human society, and on the whole, it can be summarized as something on the surface of the earth. Why do you say that? Is it because Zhu Mian is still not satisfied with this, and feels that there is still a place to be loyal to the emperor?

What is art? The scope is so wide that it can be summarized as the present continuous tense and the past antique tense. Zhu Mian's mind moved in the latter kind. As the co-owner of Shenzhou, does he only collect taxes from the living? For what is dead and buried in the grave, shall it be exempted? It doesn't matter if you are from the pre-Qin or the fifth dynasty, as long as you are still on the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, don't think about being spared! This is called the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister!

So the whole country staged a grave-digging competition, no matter whose grave it was, just to see who could dig up amazing goods. All transported into the capital and moved in the emperor's Duobao Pavilion, this is the style, the cultivation, and the taste!

On January 5, 1106, the comet crossed the western sky. On the 12th, Song Huizong issued an order: Officials, you can give me advice... As a result, on the 14th, Venus, commonly known as the Taibai Star, shone brightly during the day, and the sky changed dramatically! As a last resort, Song Huizong ordered an amnesty for the world, and even the ban of the Yuanyou party was pardoned! On the 17th, 11 people, including Liu Zhi, the chief deacon, 19 people including Su Shi, 55 people including Yu Guan Ren Boyu, and 67 people, including Lu Liangqing, were restored to their reputations. On the 25th, the comet finally disappeared for a total of 20 days.

On the 8th, Xiao Delidi, the privy counsellor of the Zhibei Yuan of Daliao, and Niu Wenshu, the privy counsellor of the Zhinan Yuan, sent an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty to persuade Song Xia to repair peace and ask the Great Song Dynasty to return the lost land of Western Xia.

On February 3, Shangshu's left servant shot Cai Jing and was dismissed. Zhao Tingzhi was promoted to the right servant of Shangshu. Under the impetus of Zhao Tingzhi, Song Huizong set the tone for the peace talks: "There is no need to talk about the territory of the first emperor Shaosheng and Yuan Fu, no way!" As for the Western Xia land that I have gained during the Chongning period since I ascended the throne, I will return it to Western Xia."

On June 21, Li Qianshun, who was in a desperate situation, hurriedly sent Li Fuli as an envoy to Liao to thank him. At the same time, an envoy was sent to the Great Song Dynasty to ask for peace talks. The words and sentences on the petition form were extremely deferential, which greatly satisfied Song Huizong's vanity. So he gave the edict "Li Qianshun, quickly hand over your oath!" As soon as your oath is handed over, I will return all the land you lost during the Chongning period" In August, Liu Zhengfu, a waiter of the Great Song Dynasty Rite Department, entered Liao and informed Song Xia that peace had been discussed... In this way, the war between Song and Xia was suspended again, waiting for Tong Guan in the Zhenghe period to conquer the Western Xia again, and Li Qianshun in the Xuanhe period to claim the title of minister again...

On January 7, the first year of Daguan (1107), Cai Jing was restored. On the 15th, Wu Juhou, the servant of the door, was dismissed. On March 11, Shangshu's right servant shot Zhao Tingzhi and was dismissed. Zhongshu Shilang He Zhizhong was transferred to the subordinate Shilang, Shangshu Zuocheng Deng Xunwu was transferred to Zhongshu Shilang, Shangshu Right Cheng Liang Zimei was promoted to Shangshu Zuocheng, and Shangshu Shangshu Zhu Ge was promoted to Shangshu Youcheng.

Liang Zimei's ascension is really the source of the common nightmare of the Great Liao and the Great Song Dynasty. This person was originally a transit envoy of Hebei Road, in charge of transportation and economic power along the way. It is now the time when Song Huizong is transporting stones all over the world, and there are no stones on Hebei Road, so what should I do? Hold your horses! Liang Zimei found another good thing - Beizhu! He dedicated Beizhu to the imperial court, and Song Huizong was overjoyed, so that Liang Zimei could be transported as much as possible. But the nightmare is that the origin of Beizhu is not in the Great Song Dynasty, but in the Great Liao. The Great Liao Kingdom, a huge empire that has crisscrossed the northern frontier for more than 200 years, has exhausted the treasures of the north, and naturally there are one or two things that are not found in the splendid rivers and mountains in the south. The most famous of these is, of course, the North Pearl. Pearls, as the name suggests, are pearls. It is a shame to say that China is known for its vast land and abundant production, but it is too single in terms of jewelry varieties, and there are no rubies, sapphires, opals, diamonds... There is nothing to wait, only pearls are produced in the southern seas, and there are Hetian jade in the northwest. Neither is guaranteed, because the farther south produces better pearls like the one in Singapore. Wada... In ancient times, the first meeting was Chinese, and the other meeting was independent, and the output could not be guaranteed at all... The North Pearl is especially precious in this case. How precious? Later, the Qing Dynasty officials wore their hats and wore them with northern pearls to decorate, and the prisoners who picked the northern pearls could have their sentences commuted...

So Liang Zimei sent people to Liao with a lot of money to purchase Beizhu, and the Khitan people were also very happy. But the nightmare came again: to get Beizhu, you had to catch a bird of prey called Haidongqing. And the origin of Haidongqing is not in Daliao, but in Jurchen. (To be continued......)
