With the coming to power of Cai Jing and the promotion of the 'New Deal', the warehouses of various states and counties in the Great Song Dynasty were full, and the Zuozang Treasury was full of white silver and glittering copper coins, and the treasury was unprecedentedly full. Dad made a fortune, and he was 'elegant', and he only changed the prime minister, and solved the financial crisis, what a wise decision. As for the voices of the people living at the bottom, they can't reach his ears at all, and even if they hear it, they have to pretend that they don't know the way.

Of course, Zhao Ta, who is a son, is not far behind, but his actions are more violent. The implementation of the Fangtian Law increased the burden on landlords and yeoman farmers, and they did not want to farm the land, so he immediately sent people to buy it, and it was a fair deal, and he would never bully others; The increase in miscellaneous taxes made it impossible for large and small handicraft workshops to work, so he immediately went to solve the work problems of those laid-off and unemployed workers, and recruited them all to work in his workshop; The merchants went bankrupt and sold their shops at reduced prices, but Zhao Ta didn't say a word, as long as the location was good, he immediately ate them with the shops, changed the signboard and continued to operate.

Within a few months of the implementation of the new policy, Zhao Ta's land increased by nearly 100,000 mu, and the number of tenants was 2,000; Several workshops have been expanded several times to allow the new craftsmen to have a place to work, that is, he relies on the products he produces to occupy a monopoly position in the market, and the things he produces are in short supply, and he has no great ability; With money, Zhao Ta is no longer in business, began to give up the workers and peasants to do business, now Gongzhou Mansion, Ying Tianfu, Daimyo's Mansion, and even in the capital have shops and restaurants, mainly engaged in Zhaofu Zhuangzi Workshop produced in various products, so that those agents in the past have great opinions; Zhao Tan couldn't help but thank his father for his good policy, he was ready to send a caravan to engage in international trade last year, because of the lack of experienced personnel, Ji Lu has been stuck on the table, and now he has bought three caravans, plus a fleet, as if in a dream.

"Uncle Huang, you said that I am now eating so many industries at once, will I make a big splash and attract the impeachment of the officials of the DPRK and China?" Zhao Ta tossed this time, and released the money from pounding salt banknotes, and the money of one hundred hundred thousand yuan was nothing compared to his father, but it was eye-catching, he asked weakly.

"Hehe???" Huang Jingchen smiled, "Lord, you are too worried, Cai Jing's family now has five or six hundred thousand acres of land alone, and the shops are all over the world, that is, Zhang Shangying, who persuades the emperor to be thrifty all day long, has more than ten shops in Beijing, and whoever is in power in the court is much richer than you, and Zhu Mian, who is in charge of the Southeast Worship Bureau, has a lot of land in his house, and he can't go to the land in two days!" Not to mention those princes and princes, which one will not be less than your land, you can rest assured! ”

"Oh?!" Zhao Ta nodded, and said in his heart that he was a nouveau riche compared to them for a long time, and he was not ranked on the Big Song Rich List!

"Lord Wang, all the money from the salt banknote transaction has been put into the warehouse, and you have spent it again, should my commission also be calculated?" Huang Jingchen rubbed Zhao Ta's side and said with a smile.

"Okay!" Zhao Ta agreed, and when he saw Xi, he hurriedly took the account book over, and then retreated out of the Lu with interest, retreated from the two small yellow doors on duty, and took a few steps back to the side before standing still.

"I invested a total of 200,000 yuan, you received 248,326 yuan of old salt banknotes, exchanged them for 140,000 yuan of new salt banknotes, and exchanged the rest for the items in the left treasury, right?" Zhao Ta looked at the ledger and said.

"Yes, I remember this account well!" Huang Jingchen nodded in agreement with the prince's statement.

"Okay, let's move on!" Zhao Ta picked up the abacus and shook it neatly, letting the beads return to their places, "The new salt led you to sell eight thousand leads at the parity price of six guans, and eight guan sold twenty-three thousand two hundred leads???" Zhao Ta pointed to Huang Jingchen with a pen of strokes, "The things exchanged in the Zuo Zang Treasury are worth a total of 840,000 yuan, right!" ”

"Lord Wang, the part of the salt introduction is good, but the things that are exchanged in the Zuozang warehouse are all discounted by six or five percent, no matter how you calculate it, it must be worth a million yuan, you can't calculate it like that!" Huang Jingchen immediately raised an objection.

"Then how to calculate, in the profits, I gave you the cost of all kinds of immortals, and you didn't listen to the orders for nothing, and sold all the things privately, if you put it now, how much more money do you say you can sell, should you also bear the loss?" Zhao Ta raised his head and asked rhetorically.

"I ??? At the time, I thought the price was high enough, but now it has risen again! Huang Jingchen said curtly, "Then calculate it according to the price that the prince said!" He finally understood that the prince did not pursue himself for 'stealing' the goods, but was waiting for himself at this time, but it was really painful, if it was put now, the price would rise by one-third, not the money of the young and old! ,

"Hmph, don't think you're at a loss, it's me who suffers!" Zhao Ta said dissatisfiedly while calculating, "Throw away the capital of 200,000 guan, your carriage and horse expenses, the benefits and emotional investment are a total of 310,000 guan, we have a net of 3.26 million guan, and we should give you 650,020,000 guan, you can make a lot of money this time!" ”

"Hehe, isn't it a generous gift from the prince, next time there is such a thing, the prince must not forget me!" Huang Jingchen's eyes were all smiling, he didn't expect to make so much money, and he didn't expect that the prince was almost an empty glove white wolf this time, and the little capital invested was negligible compared to the huge profits.

"Uncle Huang, I want to give you half of the profit this time, and the rest is counted as the shares of several of our restaurants, and I estimate that there will be a share of fifty or sixty thousand yuan every year, and you can also bleach the identities of Shunzi and them, and the remaining people can be placed in the caravan, or let them open a few shops on the border, with legal identity and fixed income, they can also live in peace, they don't always have to rely on your help to live, and they can be regarded as working in our house for so many years to give them an explanation!" Zhao Ta didn't joke this time, but said in a straight tone.

"Alas, it's still the prince's long-term thinking, so that even if I am not there one day, they can live comfortably, I have thanked the prince on their behalf!" Huang Jingchen got up and saluted.

"Uncle Huang doesn't have to be like this, we wouldn't have gotten so much information without them, there are still many places to use them in the future, now that the money is abundant, we can also recruit and train more people, it will be of great use in the future!" Zhao Ta did not hide his intention to use them, and said the truth.

"The prince is really calculating, I let you buy you at the bottom of the line, and now Shunzi is more respectful when she sees you than when she sees me, and the white-eyed wolf has no conscience, so he took refuge in you early!" Huang Jingchen rolled his eyes and said.

"Uncle Huang, what's yours and mine, are we still sharing each other?" Zhao Ta reverted to the appearance of a child, and said with a smile, "I think that Shunzi is not too old, it's time to release it, and let Feng Xi follow you to deal with the news from everywhere, train people, and the two in the garden can also help, they have been raising flowers for a few years, and now they are already uncomfortable???"

After the autumn harvest, a new Ding was added to the Mahang Street where restaurants are gathered in the capital - Duck Building. The four-storey storefront is not a big restaurant in Beijing, but the plaque inscribed by Prime Minister Cai Cheng has added a lot of color to the restaurant, and the decoration design inside is said to be designed by the palace masters, which is more magnificent and unique, and is by no means inferior to these big stores in Fanlou.

The other is the restaurant's main dish, hanging oven roast duck, which is absolutely unique in Beijing. It is said that the ducks are fed in a special way, and the way of doing it is also novel, baked with fruit wood, and more importantly, it is a special soju for the palace that is sold here, the wine set is a special glass cup, and the transparent wine glass is filled with clear and mellow soju, and then eat the sliced roast duck, the duck liver, the duck heart, the duck paw, and then the soup boiled into the bowl of duck rack after the most dear, it is simply a fairy-like enjoyment.

Of course, the consumption here is also quite high, a duck on the street is only 100 yuan, it can be sold here for five yuan, plus a simple side dish for four or five people to eat how to get 20 yuan, but this still can't stop the enthusiasm of the people of the capital, more than 80 tables on the third floor, full every day, if you want to occupy a private room, you have to make an appointment five days in advance.

"Damn, this time I'm finally living a normal life!" In an elegant and spacious room on the fourth floor, Shunzi said with emotion, now he is the head of this restaurant, but his leisurely appearance is like a hands-off shopkeeper, and the business affairs are managed by the second shopkeeper outside, and few guests have seen him, let alone know his true identity - the director of the Beijing Office of the Zhao Mansion.

Shunzi is not called Shunzi, he was originally a member of the Imperial City Division of the Great Song Dynasty. The function of the Imperial City Division is to carry out various day-to-day affairs. He is in charge of the palace door and key deed survey, patrolling the palace, guarding and sprinkling the palaces. Responsible for the guards in the imperial city, guarding the gate (palace gate, palace gate, imperial city gate) inspection of the four-color edict and other errands; He is also responsible for purchasing food, driving the emperor's car and even cleaning the toilets in the imperial city. In addition to these, there are also public security and detective and arrest functions, which is one of the two major intelligence departments of the Song Dynasty.

Huang Jingchen once served as the deputy governor of the Inner Servant Province in charge of the Imperial City Division, responsible for the intelligence work of Hebei Road, Hedong Road and Shaanxi Road. Shunzi was one of his subordinates, and later Huang Jingchen lost in the battle in the palace, and all of them were branded as Huang Jingchen, and of course they were also purged, and almost all of them were removed from the Imperial City Division.

They are not law-abiding, who has not violated the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, threatened officials, engaged in torture, and offended too many people, without a special identity, who will treat them as onions, so life after being removed is very difficult. Huang Jingchen does not forget the old feelings and helps them from time to time, but how much money can he have? Fortunately, the prince is a rake who holds money, and always gives Huang Jingchen a large amount of silver in various names, which allowed them to survive???
