As a psychiatrist, Zhao Jiaren has never been greedy for cups, but perhaps because he has never been greedy for cups, he can become a psychologist. When Wen Tianxiang left from the wine shop, he was very happy, he was about to leave after saying goodbye, but suddenly stopped and turned back to Zhao Jiaren and said, "Brother Zhao, your words are a little unusual. ”

Zhao Jiaren was stunned for a moment, and then understood. He laughed, "I'm such a lazy person, don't blame Brother Wen." ”

Wen Tianxiang went home, and Zhao Jiaren also went home. Walking on the road, Zhao Jiaren silently said in his heart, 'Jane's is a little unusual', and couldn't help but smile. All the personnel under his command had to learn culture, and Zhao Jiaren ordered someone to compile a set of 'character spectrum', which served as 'Zhao Jiaren's internal special character spectrum'. In fact, it is a kind of Xinhua dictionary.

The internal official document has been written for a long time, and writing traditional fonts has become something that Zhao Jiaren needs to think about deliberately to remember. Fortunately, the literati of the Great Song Dynasty wrote a lot, and they were quite bold in simplifying characters. It can be seen that Wen Tianxiang doesn't really care about this matter.

People came and went on the road, and I saw a few ordinary citizens traveling with children of three or four years old, and the little guy wore a new dress that was too large, in addition to the wide clothes, the sleeves were flattened up several layers, and the pants were not so flat, so they were simply tied with straps. As soon as he looked at the fabric and filling, a smile appeared on Zhao Jiaren's face. The child was wearing a thin padded jacket. It can be seen that the family is quite forward-looking in making clothes, if you look at the size of this body, it is estimated that it will be no problem to wear the doll for a year or two.

I was thinking about other 'big things' before, and Zhao Jiaren really didn't have the heart to investigate such a 'small thing' as cotton. At this time, he was in a relaxed and happy mood, and Zhao Jiaren watched while walking. Along the road is Lin'an, which is not a poor neighborhood, and when everyone travels in the evening, one or two out of ten people must wear cotton pants.

And what is even more noteworthy is that in Lin'an, where the peddlers and pawns were all on silk shoes, four or five out of ten people wore cotton shoes, and four or five people wore cotton shoes with silk surface. Only the poor who looked like they were doing hard work wore bast shoes. But Zhao Jiaren felt that those people seemed to have used footcloths.

After watching it, Zhao Jiaren sighed in his heart. Who the hell thought of using a lot of cotton cloth on shoes, such a guy is really talented. Zhao Jiaren does not despise shoes, but he thinks about leather boots, and even rubber soles in the more distant future. With such sharp weapons, the infantry was able to overcome most of the terrain. Probably because his ambitions were too high, Zhao Jiaren turned a blind eye to the reality in front of him. As an agricultural country in Europe, Spain used to export shoes to other European countries on a large scale. Shoes are a great progress for mankind. It is the wings that improve the ability of human activity.

Returning home with a certain poetic mood, the servant delivered a letter. As soon as he saw the words 'man in the boat' on the cover, Zhao Jiaren knew that it was a letter. After opening it, it turned out to be so, and Bu Ruyan said that some wealthy businessmen in Lin'an wanted to meet Zhao Jiaren. Although it is not clear how these wealthy businessmen thought of Zhao Buruyan pulling the strings, Bu Ruyan felt that he still had to inform Zhao Jiaren of this matter.

Zhao Jiaren also felt that he couldn't quite understand what was going on. Lin'an gathered a considerable number of wealthy people from the Great Song Dynasty, and these people naturally formed their own groups. Like the Nautical Guild led by Zhao Jiaren, this kind of group is quite xenophobic. I don't know how these people thought of contacting Zhao Jiaren. More importantly, if there are various ways to contact directly, how can you suddenly use such a means of contact.

Zhao Jiaren didn't bother to think about it, he brushed it up and wrote a reply. Originally, such a short letter should have been completed in one go, but it was still broken for a few moments in between. Zhao Jiaren remembered Wen Tianxiang's question, and hesitated for a moment when he put down a few words. sent someone to send the reply letter to Bu Ruyan, and Zhao Jiaren had dinner with his mother.

As a Beijing official, there is never a shortage of all kinds of communication. At this time, there is no such thing as eating and drinking with public funds, and if you want to socialize, you have to have money in your pocket. Zhao Zhizhuo himself is not short of money, and now only his second son is studying at home. The eldest son and the third son also give their father a lot of money every year. So the daily socialization continues.

Mrs. Zhao took a sip of her wine glass, and couldn't help but sigh: "I don't know if your father is happy with those bewitching sluts at this time." ”

Regarding his mother's dissatisfaction, Zhao Jiaren pretended not to hear it. It's not that he doesn't want to relieve his mother's mood, but the Zhao family has no interest in drinking flower wine itself. When it comes to this kind of thing of men and women, he feels that he is very delayed.

Seeing that her son was silent, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but ask, "San Lang, how are your grinding results?" ”

This question accurately hits what Zhao Jiaren cares about, if he is in Quanzhou, he is afraid that he can do a lot of things at this time. However, Zhao Jiaren is not in Quanzhou, but in Lin'an. The grinding survey can get the news first. However, it is not fully out at this time. If the results of the grinding survey do not come out, Zhao Jiaren cannot be released. It's also a very nasty thing.

It's just that Zhao Jiaren has long been accustomed to the old lady's attack, and he just said, "I'm also waiting." With that, he put down the empty bowl and got up to leave. Back in his house, Zhao Jiaren's mood, which had become very happy because of chatting with Wen Tianxiang, immediately developed in a bad direction. After thinking about it, Zhao Jiaren felt that all the problems came down to one point, that is, whether he could get the errand of Fuzhou Zhizhou as soon as possible.

For a while, Zhao Jiaren even had a hatred in his heart. If the imperial court is so inefficiently involved, he will simply go back to Quanzhou. If you return to Quanzhou, you can still deal with things in Quanzhou for a while. Even though he knew that this was just a blind thought, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but want to get up and leave the house immediately.

Suddenly, Zhao Jiaren felt a flash of inspiration. As a psychiatrist, self-reflection is the most important thing to do. Zhao Jiaren felt that his anger at this time was not necessarily aimed at the errand that could not get the governor of Fuzhou. Now Zhao Jiaren is by no means a small task, nor is he a 'nasty ghost' like Wen Tianxiang. Many people have expectations for Zhao Jiaren and hope to get the benefits they expect from Zhao Jiaren. At this time, it is impossible to let Zhao Jiaren go so easily.

However, at this time, a lot of negative emotions did not come from the imperial court, perhaps from the old lady. When he was in Quanzhou, Zhao Jiaren was the head of the family, and his wife was concentrating on taking care of the baby at this time, as long as Zhao Jiaren could provide material support and share the housework within his ability, his wife would not add negative emotions to him.

However, after arriving home, Zhao Jiaren saw that his second brother was avoiding the range of activities of the old lady as much as possible. Of course, his second brother has a very reasonable reason at this time. Prepare for the exam. Zhao Jiaren didn't have so many reasons, so he had to listen to his mother every day.

"I want to buy a house in Lin'an!" Zhao Jiaren said to himself.

These words seemed to have magical power, and after saying it, Zhao Jiaren only felt refreshed. The whole person is relaxed.

When he woke up the next morning, Zhao Jiaren ran out to the commercial point. The matter of buying a house is just a casual talk, in fact, just find a room in a commercial point. There are people coming and going, so you don't have to worry about not having a house to live in.

asked the life committee to arrange this matter, Zhao Jiaren found the person in charge of the sales of the cloth and asked some questions. The person in charge was stunned when he heard about the cloth shoes. It can be seen that this is the first time that this matter has been mentioned to him.

Seeing this, Zhao Jiaren had to ask more clearly, "We don't produce cloth shoes ourselves, right?" ”

The person in charge replied responsibly: "Principal, we only sell cloth, perfume, mirrors, and candles. We don't care about the rest. ”

"I see, that's ......," Zhao Jiaren suddenly realized.

In terms of straight-line distance, Lin'an is not the farthest stronghold from Zhao Jiaren. However, in terms of walking time, Lin'an is undoubtedly the most time-consuming base from Quanzhou. Even from Fujian to Jeju Island is closer than to Lin'an. Therefore, Zhao Jiaren has an understanding of the cadres of the Lin'an stronghold, but does not understand the specific situation of the Lin'an stronghold.

At this time, seeing that the person in charge of the cloth did not have a keen business sensitivity, Zhao Jiaren felt that it was necessary to see what the attitude of the work here was. At least in Zhao Jiaren's opinion, the cloth seller probably doesn't even know where the cloth is used.

Zhao Yong, as the person in charge of the Lin'an trading base, Zhao Jiaren called Zhao Yong first. This matter is not to criticize comrades, and Zhao Jiaren's words are very mild. After Zhao Yong listened to Zhao Jiaren's request to know how these people did business, he asked with a shocked face: "Third son, what is it difficult for someone to do wrong?" ”

"Wrong?" Zhao Jiaren felt in his heart that those responsible persons were not good enough, but this was still a long way from doing something wrong. He was afraid that Zhao Yong would misunderstand, so he hurriedly said: "I just think everyone is working hard, and I want to see how you manage this place like this." ”

Hearing Zhao Jiaren's appreciation, Zhao Yong smiled embarrassedly, "Third son, Lin'an is a land of flowers and flowers. There are many people and things, a lot of money exchanges, and a lot of various taxes. In the beginning, all kinds of things happened every day. Later, I didn't think it worked, so I followed the military law system on our ship. What everyone wants to do and why they want to do it are discussed one by one. All kinds of money and money must be clearly accounted for. All have to be accounted for. After a while, it can be sorted out. ”

“…… You've worked so hard! Zhao Jiaren no longer needs to inquire to know what happened. With Zhao Yong's management, Lin'an's business base must be highly disciplined. Again, the vitality of this commercial base has probably been stifled.

It's not that these people don't follow discipline, it's that they don't do anything without clear rules. Since you can get the income you deserve as long as you do what you should do, why bother so much to do something extra. From a point-of-sale perspective, this is really the right idea. Why does the person in charge of selling cloth in Lin'an have to care where the cloth is used in the end, and it is difficult for the person in charge of selling cloth to ask, 'Let's make cloth shoes', can Zhao Yong agree?

Thinking of this, Zhao Jiaren patted Zhao Yong's shoulder and said, "Zhao Yong, well done." I want to transfer you back to Fujian to be the person in charge of logistics. ”

"Huh?" Zhao Yong didn't expect his words to come up with such a result. The person in charge of logistics is Gao Sheng, and Zhao Yong is still very clear about this. But Zhao Yong didn't have a special joy, he sighed: "Third son, I want to stay in Lin'an." ”

Zhao Jiaren couldn't find any other reason, so he could only say tentatively: "Is it for the girl who walks like smoke?" ”

Zhao Yong shook his head slightly, "I thought it was, but now I feel that if I really leave Lin'an, I will probably leave." It's just that after staying in Lin'an for so long, I've come to like this place. I think it's also a good thing to be able to operate these voices in Lin'an. ”

"Do you really think so?" Zhao Jiaren didn't expect Zhao Yong to be so casual.

"Yes." It's really nice and I love Lin'an.

Because of the new information, the investigation of the Lin'an business base ended without a hitch. Zhao Jiaren no longer has any innovative dreams here. After calming down, Zhao Jiaren suddenly felt that he had figured out some issues that he hadn't considered before. First of all, opening a sewing factory in Lin'an is just his personal wishful thinking, and there is no investigation before opening a handicraft factory in Lin'an, how can he suddenly act with a flash of inspiration.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jiaren felt a little ashamed. How did his mentality become so bad?

I want to be calm! I want to be calm! Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but say to himself. But in recent years, there have been very few things that have not been satisfactory, and even if there are, they are all small things. It's the first time that I can't grasp my future at all, and even if I tell myself countless truths, I can't make my mood calm. It's really a matter of concern.

Almost restless all morning, Zhao Jiaren felt that he could no longer go on like this. He called Zhao Yong, "Come with me to see Miss Bu Ruyan." ”

"Why?" Zhao Yong was very surprised.

"Talk on the road." Zhao Jiaren said.

Along the way, he told Zhao Yong about Bu Ruyan's letter, and asked Zhao Yong why the businessman who did not have a money bank came to Zhao Jiaren directly through Zhao Yong. Zhao Yong showed some embarrassment after hearing this. "Third son, they also came to me. We have our own fleet, and we have a bank, so I don't want to put my money in theirs. That's probably why they won't come to me. ”

Hearing Zhao Yong's words, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help laughing. After laughing, Zhao Jiaren patted Zhao Yong's shoulder, "You are really resolute and decisive." I think it's a good thing to go to the back office. ”

"Third son, the logistics department is in charge of the war. I don't want to do this. Zhao Yong's attitude was very clear when he heard Zhao Jiaren's words, and he immediately explained.

"You don't like the military?" Zhao Jiaren felt that he understood what Zhao Yong meant.

Zhao Yong immediately replied: "The army is full of troops. Who will like it? I also felt that I couldn't like to fight and kill, so I wanted to come to Lin'an. ”

It turned out that he didn't like war. Zhao Jiaren sighed in his heart. The Great Song Dynasty had something in common with New China in many aspects, but the Great Song Dynasty's attitude towards the military was completely different from that of New China. There is a very impolite saying among the people about the army, which is called 'thieves with troops'. The Great Song Dynasty was not a compulsory military service system, but a conscription system. Because of the emphasis on literature and the suppression of military force, the status of soldiers in the Great Song Dynasty was not high. Liangjiazi shy away from joining the army, so many criminals were 'stabbed with Cangzhou'. Thorn is the tattoo of words on the face, and the distribution is sent to work in the army in a certain place. In the Water Margin, the leopard head Lin Chong was stabbed into an army, and then sent to guard the army's forage field. In addition to these, normal military personnel also have to tattoo words on their faces and hands.

"If you don't like it, forget it. I don't want to force it. Zhao Jiaren replied. He knew Zhao Yong's temperament, although he was loyal, he was also stubborn. For such guys, in peacetime it is not suitable for cattle not to drink water and force the way of pressing their heads.

Continuing to move forward, Zhao Jiaren thought about it in his heart. The status of the military, the prejudice of the people against the army, plus the tattoo. In the end, the soldiers had the nickname of 'thieves with soldiers'. Zhao Jiaren specifically talked to Wen Tianxiang when he said that he was resolutely opposed to tattooing. And Zhao Jiaren also hoped that if he became the governor of Fuzhou, he would be able to control the left wing army of the palace front division at that time. At that time, he wanted to insert his connections into this regular army. It is not Zhao Yong who has an opinion about the army, and Zhao Jiaren believes that many others will not want to be tattooed themselves.

Not far from the West Lake, the accommodation near the two people. The little girl who opened the door saw Zhao Yong and stepped forward to salute cordially. Zhao Yong said: "Miss Step is here." If so, please go and say that Mr. Zhao is coming to visit. It's Mr. Zhao, not Zhao Yong. ”

"Yes." After the little girl answered, she glanced at Zhao Jiaren curiously, and then walked in quickly.

It was Zhao Jiaren who saw some melancholy on Zhao Yong's face. This made Zhao Jiaren feel melancholy in his heart. Zhao Yong probably felt that he could affect Bu Ruyan's life, but the reality disappointed him. Bu Ruyan is still going on with her life according to her own ideas.

It's not the fault of the smoke, if anything, it's wrong. Probably because Zhao Yong mistakenly thought that the world would change because of his sincerity. The persistence of sincerity is often the persistence of the weak, and in terms of the strength of the heart, Bu Ruyan is much stronger than Zhao Yong.

Just thinking about it, the little girl came out again. She first saluted Zhao Jiaren very seriously, and then said, "Mr. Zhao, my young lady invites you to go in with Brother Zhao Yong." ”

"Lead the way." Zhao Jiaren ordered.

Early the next morning, Zhao Jiaren woke up at the accommodation of the commercial base. Then he began to get up and eat breakfast. Zhao Yong had already prepared the car, and the car in which the two of them were riding converged with a small sedan chair, and the team went straight to a street in Lin'an City.

When they got to the street, the three of them came down. The descendants followed, and the three walked into the street. On both sides of the street are frontage facades, all of which are open. In the hall, there are rows of yellow, orange and orange gold ingots, shining silver ingots, and in addition to the yellow, orange and orange copper coins, they are mixed with gold and silver ingots in a huge basin. The feeling of opulence overflowed from the halls like beer foam and piled up in the streets.

Walking on the street, Zhao Jiaren even said a little dizzy: "I didn't expect Lin'an to have such a good place." ”

"Huh." Walking between the two of them, the steps were like smoke and laughter were as crisp as pearls, "I always thought that Mr. Zhao had seen everything in time, but I didn't expect that Mr. Zhao also had something he hadn't seen." ”

Zhao Jiaren didn't want to fight for anything to win or lose in this matter. He really has never seen such a scene, and there is such a layout of Qianzhuang Street, which means that the financial industry of Da Song is very open. It's a real treasure.

Holding back his excitement, Zhao Jiaren said briskly: "Go." Let's go meet the people who want to see me. ”
