On the second day, Shen Huashan hurriedly found Jiang Chenghai over, and told him about his discovery and plans, and felt that it should be like this, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, and the two of them found the palace of the Provincial Medicine Bureau to serve Sun Boyang, and the three of them muttered in the Jiang family. After a long time, Jiang Chenghai changed his heavy face from the past, and showed a determined and relaxed smile, secretly amusing in his heart: Now Xiyan has something to bear, see what they say!

Jiang Chenghai found Qian Tongshi and told him his plans and countermeasures, Qian Tongshi couldn't help nodding, and the two of them also discussed some details for a long time, and finally the two of them invariably showed a fox-like smile. It didn't take long for the officials of Dayong to greet the Xiyan mission: Let's discuss the mutual market for the third time, we already have a plan.

It is still the Honglu Temple Protocol House, or the long table, or the officials on both sides of the table sitting separately, and the Dayong officials led by Qian Tongshi easily threw out their plan: mutual market, reopening, good horses, Dayong also needs it, but it is not bought with money, but exchanged, bartered! Dayong plans to exchange tea, silk, and medicinal materials for Xiyan's horses, in order to show sincerity, in the first three years of the opening of the mutual market, Dayong's tea, silk, and medicinal materials will be exchanged for Xiyan people according to the reserve price, this is Dayong's final plan, as for what you think, everyone can also talk about it together.

When the Xiyan officials over there heard this plan, their faces changed slightly, but they didn't agree, and shouted loudly: I think horses are too valuable than tea, silk, etc., and they are not cost-effective, so they will not be exchanged! As it was, horses had to be bought with money, and the original rules could not be broken. The envoy of Xiyan was very anxious in his heart, your sister, how could Dayong come up with such a unique method, how much benefit can Xiyan get now, and I thought that this time I came to discuss the reopening of the mutual market, Dayong would use money to trade, originally I wanted to take all the benefits, and now, it would be good to keep a little meat residue.

Qian Tongshi and the others were not in a hurry, nor did they quarrel with them, but also said with a helpless look: "This is all what our emperor has spoken, and we as courtiers can only do it." Otherwise, this mutual market will not be able to reopen. "I was thinking in my heart, small sample, you just pretend, see if you agree, I already know your hole cards. The officials of Dayong have already received the news from the Shang Pharmacy: the medicinal effect contained in this tea can relieve oiliness and help digestion, which is indispensable for Xiyan, a country that loves meat, and in exchange for tea, Xiyan will definitely agree.

The officials of Honglu Temple all looked leisurely, as if they had a lot of time waiting for the envoy of Xiyan to make a decision, in fact, it was also the case, they were really not in a hurry, it was Xiyan's turn to be in a hurry.

There is nothing to fight about in Xiyan now, and finally reluctantly agreed, and the personnel on both sides also debated and quarreled on the details of "three years is too short, it should be ten years" and "how much tea can a horse exchange", and finally agreed that five years before the opening of the mutual market, tea, silk, and medicinal materials were exchanged for Xiyan's horses at the reserve price, which was a matter of branches and leaves, and the officials of Dayong also went with Xiyan, and the envoys of Xiyan were relieved. Jiang Chenghai and Qian Tongshi exchanged a meaningful look: AIA is so simple, the reserve price, what is the reserve price? In the end, it's not Dayong who has the final say, right?

In the end, Emperor Changtai also decided to set up a tea horse division on the border of Xining Road after the year, and its duty was to "take the benefits of tea and use it in Zuobang; Where the city horses in the four Yi, the rate of tea exchange. At this point, the matter of the tea and horse exchange market was officially determined, and as for the specific implementation of the mutual market, it will wait until the two sides meet in Xining Road after the beginning of spring.

As soon as the matter of the mutual market was over, the main purpose of Xiyan's coming to Dayong had been completed, and he was tired of eating, drinking, and having fun, so the Xiyan delegation was ready to return to Xiyan.

Xiyan and Dayong exchanged national letters, and Dayong held a farewell state banquet for Xiyan's envoys, and both sides were drunk with a number of people, although they were scolding each other in their hearts, they were reluctant to say goodbye to each other, in short, as when they came, Dayong sent away Xiyan's mission.

At this time, many people breathed a sigh of relief, at least the people of Honglu Temple didn't have to play tricks, and they returned to their former tranquility.

When the Xiyan mission left Jingzhao, Shen Ning didn't see it, but she didn't care, she was more concerned about the pattern of Jingzhao after the Xiyan mission left.

From Shen Zejing's words, we can know that there are still a lot of people who have gained from the visit of the Xiyan mission.

Let's talk about Shen Zeru of the Shen family first, because of a downlink, not to mention the fame of the literature, the official body has also increased by a grade, and the most important thing is that the officials of the Guozijian look at him differently, and they are very proud of him, you must know that the Guozijian has almost gathered the top reading talents in the country, and it goes without saying what such a look represents, even the Guozijian Wine Guard Fuli praised him, which made Shen Zeru feel like a little Dengke, which was both happy and nervous, and felt a lot of pressure.

The five princes Shangguan Changzhi performed very well, and Emperor Changtai rewarded many objects, the most notable of which was a horse whip, which was only made of simple silk and peach wood, not inlaid with gold and jade, but made other princes envious and hateful - only because the horse whip was used by Emperor Changtai when he was a hidden dragon, and it was given to him by the first emperor when Emperor Changtai was still an ordinary prince. In this way, the meaning symbolized by the whip is not the same. Could it be that my father has other thoughts? This is something that the second prince and the third prince have been thinking about for days.

Even the ** Li concubine, because of the performance of the five princes and was canonized as Li Guifei, although still living in Chunxi Palace, but still promoted to a higher level, on the day of canonization, even the Neiluan honor guard outside the door of Chunxi Palace set up a lot of luxury, and Emperor Changtai personally praised it for its "gentle and graceful", the provincial officials in the palace are also very eye-catching, after Li Concubine was canonized as Li Guifei, Chunxi Palace has also successively added several palace maids, this is a later story.

As for officials such as Honglu Temple, not to mention, they did not fall into the country's prestige and solved the dispute between the markets, Qian Tongshi and Jiang Chenghai were all officials of the first class, and they only waited for next year's examination to be promoted, and they also received a lot of financial rewards; Although the rewards of Fang Congzhe and the others have decreased slightly, they are also very exciting. Shangguan Changzhi also congratulated the officials of Honglu Temple, and also set up a table of banquets for them, except for Qian Tongshi and Jiang Chenghai, Fang Congzhe and others participated, and they were a little closer to the five princes.

Qian Tongshi and Jiang Chenghai were having a small gathering with Shen Huashan. These three have been in officialdom for a long time, although Qian Tongshi did not have much friendship with Shen Huashan, but because of the antecedents of the mutual market, he also came to express his gratitude to Shen Huashan this time, saying that thanks to his discovery of the tea matter, otherwise this mutual market dispute may not be resolved when it will be, and asked him curiously how he knew.

"Well, it's thanks to a tea stewed duck from the maid at home......" Shen Huashan stroked his beard, but he sold Guan Zi, looking like he was doing something to me, which made the other two people hate him so much that they were determined to get him drunk. In any case, Qian and Jiang are very grateful to Shen Huashan, and it is thanks to him, otherwise this reward is really like a phantom. So Qian and Jiang took turns to persuade them to drink, until Shen Huashan couldn't sit still in a daze, and then he laughed. Of course, since then, the three of them have had a lot of contacts, and their feelings have deepened a lot.

Therefore, the most important thing to change a man is not a woman, nor anything else, but wine! The one who accompanied the public for 30,000 drunken laughs is none other than his own people.

In the study, Shen Huashan, Shen Zejing, Shen Zeyuan, father and son were talking, although they had drunk a lot of wine with Qian Tongshi and others the day before, and they were also drunk. Shen Huashan did not feel dizzy, but was extremely sober. What the father and son said was the matter of the envoys leaving Beijing and exchanging markets.

"Although the official decree has not yet been given, it is certain. I think my in-laws can go to Xining Road first, so as to take the whole opportunity, although it is said to be the reserve price exchange, but how can Dayong be cheaper Xiyan? "This is what Shen Zeyuan said, the medicinal materials used to exchange horses in the mutual market are not a small amount, and Hu's Anhetang is bound to make a trip to Xining Road.

"My son knows that he has sent a letter to Jiangnan last night. I also plan to ask Yan Shang to follow his father-in-law on Xining Road. "Yes, the big head of exchanging good horses with Xiyan is tea, Longjing Zhai definitely wants a piece of the pie, maybe even Shen Deshan will send someone from Hangzhou to Xining Road together.

Shen Huashan nodded with satisfaction, although this son is not out of office, but he is indeed more proficient than himself in managing business affairs, no wonder although the family's expenses are getting bigger and bigger, there is no embarrassment, and it is also thanks to this son's good luck.

The son also planned to ask Yan Shang to bring some things to the third brother by the way, anyway, they would also pass through Lingnan. Besides, it is not easy for the third brother to be an official in Nanhai County, and he also sent a festival gift back during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Shen Zeyuan told Shen Huashan his plan again, thinking of the hardships in Lingnan, seeing that winter was coming, he also felt a little sorry for Shen Zegao, the younger brother of the same mother.

"The South China Sea is remote, the third brother is really not easy, and it has been really hard over the years...... Shen Zejing also added next to him, and he also felt sorry for Shen Zegao between his words, but after thinking about it, he is also accumulating official qualifications, everyone has such a process, when he was the county magistrate in Fengnan, he also came over like this.

In fact, the Mid-Autumn Festival, he doesn't have to toss so much, and the third daughter-in-law also has a heart. He has also been in Nanhai County for a few years, and next year's inspection will almost be about the time to move. Besides, the observation of Lingnan Dao made Ding Wenhan not a harsh person, and the Guangzhou Thorn Shi Cui Hu has always been gentle, except for the difficult conditions, it is not difficult to be an official in Lingnan. Shen Huashan listened to the words of these two sons, and also remembered the young son Shen Zegaolai, who was a county magistrate in the South China Sea.

"Let's go to Zhangluo, and set off for Xining Road, sooner rather than later." In the end, Shen Huashan said to Shen Zeyuan, and let him go back to Songfeng Xuan to rest first, and he also had something else to say to Shen Zejing.
