Chapter 176: Spirited
Cai Bian is quite paranoid, and most of the people who change the law are very paranoid. Take his father-in-law Wang Anshi as an example, if he is not paranoid, he will not say that for the sake of the new law, the ancestral law can be abolished.
As for Zhang Dian and others, they are also more paranoid than the other.
In terms of personality, Cai Bian also belongs to the kind of person who says the same. Even if he is a colleague, the giant Zhang Dun, who is also a law-changing faction, comes, and he doesn't want to take food from him. Not only that, Cai Bian will most likely take Zhang Dian to the warehouse to see the treasury of Jiangning. Tell the other party that my treasury is full, but you want it, and there is no door. It's that nasty.
In the face of Cai Bian's paranoia, Zhang Zhu has already understood. Fortunately, he was not angry, and he knew that Cai Bian was such a person.
Seeing that Zhang Zhu and Su Guo didn't insist on seeing the granary, Cai Bian was a little relieved, and snorted coldly to his subordinates: "Go, pass the warehouse supervisor!" ”
"I've seen Master Fu Yin, and I've seen two ...... Son! ”
The status of the warehouse supervisor is very low, and when he encounters Cai Bian like this, he is always trembling. I was afraid that the horse's feet would be exposed in the treasury and let the eldest master catch it. The Great Song Dynasty has always imposed a felony on embezzlement of ink, ranging from deprivation of official status and never being hired, to being imprisoned and having his home raided.
But no matter how careful the warehouse supervisor is, there is no way to face the shortage of the treasury or even damage.
It's like a good crossbow, it takes three years to concoct a bow arm, but a litter of rats can scrap a dozen crossbows worth a dozen in one night. Not only that, but there are also water erosion, insect moth, and rust, all of which are numerous, and only the problems of preservation plague the warehouse supervisors of the Great Song Dynasty. If you really meet a boss who is not good at talking, the warehouse supervisor can make amends for the crime and bankrupt himself.
And when facing Fu Yin, the warehouse supervisor was even more afraid.
Because he angered his boss, at most he hit the board. But Fu Yin, it is possible to open a court for interrogation, and if you are unlucky, you must be prepared to eat in prison.
Holding his hands above his head, he handed it to Cai Bian.
Then he began to say as if he was running to the hall to report the name of the dish: "The No. 1 warehouse of the first word stores swords, there are 30,000 and 54 knives, 58,564 spears, 19,000 armors, and 7,800 ......helmets."
Even if Su Guo had no experience in the army, he didn't know what the army was, and he was taken aback by the ordnance in the treasury of the Great Song Mansion, just one weapon of Jiangning Mansion was enough to form an army of 100,000 people. Of course, you don't expect everyone to have armor, but you can still do it with a weapon.
For a hundred years, the Great Song Dynasty has been trapped in external troubles.
Nearly seventy percent of the Great Song Dynasty's finances are spent on the army every year.
An investment of 70 million a year, decades of accumulation. How strong the military strength of the Great Song Dynasty was, most of the emperors and ministers would guess that it was very weak and weak. But how many weapons the Great Song has, I'm afraid no one really knows. Many of these weapons have been stored for too long, and some have lost their ability to be used. But removing these unusable, usable weapons is still a vast astronomical number.
Cai Bian didn't look at the account books either, just squinted his eyes slightly, listening to the warehouse supervisor reciting the huge number of treasury reserves.
When he heard the miscellaneous, he finally opened his eyes and whispered, "Go to the treasury and count." ”
At this time, the warehouse supervisor was already hoarse, and cold sweat was hanging down on his forehead. Hearing Cai Bian's words, his head was a little wooden, and he continued to recite, but fortunately, the secretary coughed a few times and woke up, and then he woke up, thinking that he might have upset the eldest master, and his body trembled. He bowed his waist and led the group to the back of the treasury with trepidation.
The moment he opened the treasury, the materials piled up in the treasury made Zhang Zhu also shocked the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty. In the treasury and outside the treasury, there are two completely different feelings. The insignificance of people can be called the accumulation of materials in the treasury.
"Inquest!"
Su Guo walked beside a middle-aged man with a white body who looked like a businessman, walked in front of the jar, began to check, looked at the condition of several jars in a row, and after stirring, sniffed the smell, nodded and said, "Top-grade." ”
Su Guo breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhang Zhu, and dealt with Cai Bian, Su Guo couldn't fall well even if he took the name of his father Su Shi. If people don't care about you, what can I do?
Zhang Zhu at least has the identity of a jinshi, and for the sake of Zhang Di's face, Cai Bian gave Zhang Zhu this opening.
Zhang Zhu bowed down and thanked: "Boy, thank you for your uncle's aid!" ”
"It's about the people, this official has given you convenience, Renhe, you have to remember that all the officials in the world are looking at your father. Don't tell the truth. After Cai Bian finished speaking, he said to the warehouse supervisor: "Consideration for nuclear buying, no problem, right?" ”
How dare the warehouse supervisor say the word 'no'?
Lying on the ground, he said: "Villain, remember! ”
Cai Bian is gone.
Zhang Zhu and the others took a breath, this one was too stressful. And Zhang Zhu looked at Su Guo's face very unsightly, and immediately said with relief: "Brother Xian, don't be careful." Cai Yuandu is such a person, he has no ill will towards people. It's just that he doesn't smile on weekdays, which makes people feel difficult to get along with. ”
Su Guo stretched out his hand to help the warehouse supervisor, and said sadly: "My brother is the official who has graced my father, and he is a warehouse supervisor in Hebei, but he just feels it." ”
After the warehouse supervisor got up, he smiled at Su Guo and said: "Childe, don't feel nostalgic, the position of warehouse supervisor is still very comfortable on weekdays, and it is only uncomfortable when Shangguan comes." Endure it and it will pass, and besides, Shangguan will not come every day. Brother Gongzi is an Enyin identity, and at least he has the title of a civil official, which is much better than me. Shangguan will not deliberately make things difficult. ”
Su Guo was a little better, he had also thought about Enyin being a teacher, and when he saw that the warehouse supervisor was so lowly, he broke off his thoughts. Even he wanted his brother not to be a warehouse supervisor, so he might as well go home and farm.
Besides, Yingzhou Prefecture.
It's been almost ten days since the letter was sent to Jiangning, and Li Kui hasn't been going anywhere these days, just studying in the state government. Unfortunately, he wanted to be pure, but he couldn't stop someone from disturbing him.
"Virtuous brother, Renjie!"
Gao Yu was outside the courtyard, sometimes pretending to be a bird, sometimes calling in a low voice, anyway, he always had to come two or three times a day, otherwise he would never stop.
Li Kui opened the door, and the thief walked into the courtyard slipping into the courtyard, looking east and west, with a look of caution. Seeing that Su Shi was not there, he immediately relieved his heart and smiled at Li Kui: "Brother Xian, go out for a walk?" ”
"If you don't go, you want to endorse the book, the book that the ancestor asked me to read, I haven't read it yet."
Li Kui also knew Gao Yu's thoughts, but it was useless for him to go out, and he couldn't turn tea oil into his hands. On the contrary, it can be cleaned in the courtyard.
"It's over sixty, Brother Xian knows, right?" Gao Yu couldn't help it, and muttered in front of Li Kui: "Foolish brother estimates, this price must not go up further, and if you go, the rich and noble will not be able to afford it." ”
His intention couldn't be simpler, he just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get a good vote.
Li Kui said to himself: "It's been almost ten days since the letter was sent to Jiangning, and if you want to buy it, now is an opportunity." ”
Gao Yu was also ready to soak in front of Li Kui for a while, after all, Li Kui's mouth was very strict, much more reliable than Li Yun. Suddenly, he was stunned, Li Kui just said that it was an opportunity, Gao Yu's heart was suddenly overjoyed, and he said excitedly: "Can I buy it?" ”
"Well, it's about this time, and there won't be such a good opportunity when it's too late." Li Kui didn't see anyone drinking soup, and besides, Gao Yu had been working hard with Su Shi and his predecessor, and he worked hard without merit, so there was no need to force him to be a good and honest official. Besides, when there are benefits, I don't think about others, and when others are developed, who will think of you?
Giggled, Gao Yu's face cracked with a smile: "Brother Xian, my brother remembers your goodness, and when you make money, my brother will go to Daxiangguo Temple to provide you with an immortal tablet." ”
", I'm only a teenager, what do you want for an immortal tablet?"
Li Kui was about to fight when he spoke, but Gao Yu stepped away with his long legs and ran. But he didn't want to, Gao Yu was stopped at the door, and when he looked down, it was Li Yun: "Gao Yu, more than sixty yuan in one stone, do you have enough money?" ”
Gao Yu was dumbfounded, today's exchanges are getting bigger and bigger, and the amount of transactions is not low. Take tea oil as an example, one hundred stone per order, according to today's price, he can't even buy a single order with the money in his hand. I didn't expect Gao Yu, who got the inside news, to rejoice in the end. However, looking at Li Yun's expression, it seemed to be saying to him: "No money, beg me!" ”
"Brother Xian, it's not easy for my brother to do this business, you lend me some money, and when my brother makes a fortune, I will also provide you with an immortal tablet!" Gao Yu said flatteringly to Li Yun.
Li Yun angrily smoked and borrowed money? There was no door, gritted his teeth and said, "Gao Yu, you haven't thought about buying a joint order with me?" Let's do this business together. ”
Gao Yu looked at Li Yun with unkind eyes: "You also want to share my benefits?" ”
"What a brain." Li Yun can't wait to wake up Gao Yu who fell in the eye of money with a slap, this guy is not stupid to pee and take care of himself, the business of the exchange is hundreds of thousands of yuan, and he has less than a thousand yuan in his hand, and he still wants to swallow it in one bite? Annoyed: "You don't want to think about it, you only have a few dollars in your hand, what nonsense do you talk about sharing your benefits?" It is the two of us who benefit each other and advance and retreat together. You don't have enough money in your hand, and I don't have enough money in my hand, but you can buy a single order together, which is called combining to benefit both, and dividing to lose both. ”
Gao Yu tilted his head and thought about it before nodding and saying, "That's the truth." ”
Li Yun said happily: "When I see the money, I will provide you with an immortal tablet." ”
Gao Yu said with a disgusted face: "I don't even have a son, and I haven't married a daughter-in-law, so I want an immortal tablet." If you can't bear it, it's good for me to share it a little more. ”
Li Yun almost lit his fist to educate Gao Yu on how to behave.
Gao Yu knew that he was speechless, and sneered: "Brother is wrong, let's go to Kangjin first, and then settle the business." ”
"Wrong, go to Qiu's shopkeeper's money bank first. We don't have enough money. ”
……
The two walked out of the bank shoulder to shoulder, and then plunged into the exchange, and when the sun turned west, they stood on the streets of Yingzhou, watching the people coming and going, with a look of fascination.
Gao Yu held a stack of transaction orders issued by the exchange in his hand, and there were five orders.
Gao Yu, who was trapped by money on weekdays, was full of spirits, and pointed to a building and said: "I didn't expect that I Gao Yu can do tens of thousands of business in this life, if this business is successful, I will buy a big courtyard in the capital, so that people can see, the second year of high school is gone!" ”
