Chapter 268 Changing Horses, Fan Zheng Promoted!
Yunzhou County.
Monthly meetings.
Fan Zhengzheng loudly reported the current situation of the two trades of tea, wine and horses.
"Lord Wang, since the end of May we began to trade with those medium-sized and small Tatar tribes on the steppe in exchange for spirits and tea bricks in exchange for war horses, by the middle of this month, we have consumed a total of 900,000 stone of grain, and purchased nearly 5 million catties of turbid wine and 7 million catties of tea bricks from the Guannei.
At present, there are 1 million catties of liquor distilled from turbid liquor, which has brought us the income of 20,000 war horses.
The rest of the remaining turbid liquor is being distilled, and it is expected that all of it will be distilled by the end of this month, and 500,000 catties of spirits can be produced, which is expected to be exchanged for another 10,000 war horses.
But at present, we can't buy turbid liquor in the Guannai, and almost seventy percent of the turbid liquor on the market has been acquired by us and then continue to buy it, which is extremely concerned about it, so Xiaguan has stopped the trade of purchasing turbid liquor from the Guannai.
And the matter of exchanging wine for horses is finally expected to be able to exchange 30,000 war horses for my Yunzhou County.
The remaining shortage of 130,000 war horses was obtained by the lower officials, who decided to obtain it through the tea and horse trade.
Unlike war horses, the tea horse trade has advantages that the wine horse trade does not have.
The first is sustainability and demand.
Wine is not irreplaceable, but tea is a necessity among the Tatar tribes, and it is consumed almost every day, and this trade is expected to be a long-term trade, and even after the war, it can bring a lot of income to my Yunzhou County.
Moreover, the supply of tea and horse trade is far more abundant than that of turbid wine, and due to the shortage of grain in the customs area, the amount of wine that can be produced each year is limited, and the quantity is not too large.
Seven million catties of wine a year is already the limit of turbid wine in Kannai, and no matter how much there is, there is not enough food to brew, and the imperial court strictly prohibits this behavior.
We estimate that the amount of turbid liquor that we can obtain from Guannai every year is only about four or five million catties, and if we want to expand the production of turbid liquor, we can only wait for the first batch of liquor brewed in our local winery in Yunzhou County, which cannot be achieved in the short term.
However, the supply of tea in the tea and horse trade is extremely sufficient, and there is less tea in the north, but in the south, especially in the four southeastern counties and other places, tea is a widely cultivated cash crop with a huge output.
And all we need is tea bricks made from the defective products left over from ordinary tea leaves, which are not sold in the Guannai, and no one needs this thing except for those big merchants in the northwest who do border trade.
We can buy in large quantities at a low price.
Ten catties of grain can be exchanged for a pound of tea bricks for us.
Therefore, according to the current situation, Xia Guan has asked the Feiyun Trading Company to continue to buy these tea bricks and dump them into those medium-sized and small Tatar tribes.
According to the current situation, sales are very good and are rising.
Now we have sold a full 5 million tea bricks to these Tatar tribes, and exchanged nearly 50,000 war horses for our Yunzhou County!
But so far, the tea wine horse trade has exchanged a total of 70,000 war horses for my Yunzhou County, and the remaining 90,000 war horses are expected to be fully filled by the end of this month. ”
After finishing the above report, Fan Zheng himself breathed a long sigh of relief, God knows how much pressure on his shoulders was during this time, which was a shortage of 160,000 war horses.
Not sixteen, not one hundred and sixty, but a full sixteen thousand!
It has to be a war horse!
If this is changed to the imperial court, it will not be possible to make up it without six or seven years of effort, and this is still in the case of sufficient money and food.
Judging from the current situation of the imperial court, it is simply a fool's dream for the imperial court to make up such a sum of money and food!
The imperial court did not say that it could not take out this silver, even if it was taken out, it would be impossible for the imperial court to sell the war horse on such a large target grassland.
And their Yunzhou County is different, first of all, the goal is small, so far, no one in this land thinks that their Yunzhou County is a big place, and no one will take Yunzhou County in their eyes.
This also leads to the fact that what Yunzhou County does will be more secretive and unnoticeable.
It's more convenient.
Coupled with the large amount of grain produced by the three counties and the wartime system that has been going on in Yunzhou County, Yunzhou County is not short of money and food at all, and has enough money and food to complete its own goals.
Plus the full support of the prince.
This is the only way to accomplish such a big move in a few months' time.
It can be said that the right time and place are combined with people, and even one of them is impossible to complete the purpose in such a short time.
And after listening to Fan Zheng's report, Zhao Jun also showed a satisfied smile.
During this time, Fan Zheng's actions Zhao Jun saw it in his eyes, not only because he had a flexible brain and could think of this way to fill the gap in the war horse, but more importantly, this guy's execution and action were extremely sufficient.
From the time he put forward the idea to the present, from mid-May to mid-August, in just three months, a month earlier than he scheduled for mid-September, he had already completed most of the goal, and at most another eight months, he could achieve the goal.
During this time, according to the report of the secret guard, this Fan Zheng was almost undressed, and he forgot to sleep and eat to work, which led to his current achievements.
And his actions also inadvertently brought some additional benefits to Yunzhou County, benefits that Zhao Jun didn't know about originally......
Coughing lightly twice, attracting everyone's attention to himself, Zhao Junlang said: "Very good, since we set the goal in mid-May, Master Fan has achieved today's results in only three months, and has solved most of the biggest problem that restricts the expansion of my Yunzhou County army, which has fully proved Master Fan's ability to work."
This king is very satisfied with this, and also hopes that the officials of Yunzhou County can also learn from Fan Zhushu and become a capable official who can not only do things, but also have the ability to act! Officer!
Contribute to the development of my Yunzhou County! ”
After a pause, Zhao Jun looked around at everyone in the field, and after slowly standing up, he immediately nodded slightly to Li Yi on the side, and Li Yi immediately hurriedly stood up together.
He picked up a piece of golden paper and began to read it aloud.
"Z!
Today, there is Fan Zheng, the chief secretary of the grain storage department, who is an honest and honest official, and has excellent materials.
In Yunzhou County, he worked hard and worked hard to make great contributions to Yunzhou County, and solved the shortage of war horses for Yunzhou County with his own wisdom and wisdom!
Its achievements can be seen, and its achievements can be checked!
Old! From today onwards, Fan Zheng, the chief secretary of the Jinyuan Grain Storage Department, has been admitted to the position of director of the Grain Storage Department and enjoys the treatment of a five-grade official. ”
After reading the letter of appointment in his hand, Li Yidang said to Fan Zheng with a smile:
"Director Fan, now that you have been promoted to this position, I hope you can continue to fulfill your duties in this position, work bravely, and continue to make greater achievements for the development of my Yunzhou County!"
As he spoke, he stretched out the golden appointment in his hand.
Fan Zheng shuddered, and finally recovered from the surprise of his promotion, hurriedly ran out of his position, came to the rostrum, and respectfully accepted his appointment letter with both hands.
Looking at the line of appointment documents on the golden appointment certificate, Fan Zheng couldn't help himself with excitement.
hurriedly bowed to everyone where Zhao Jun was, and said in a continuous voice:
"The lower official has thanked the prince for his favor, and he will definitely work harder for the prince and make greater contributions to my Yunzhou County!"
Zhao Jun smiled and nodded, walked out and reached out to pat his shoulder and encouraged: "Then it's decided, this king will see your performance in the future." ”
"Don't worry, the prince!"
Fan Zheng patted his chest and reassured.
Zhao Jun smiled, but then his face changed, and he said solemnly:
"Although this king fulfilled his promise in advance to allow you to be promoted, but you can't relax about the war horse, now that the autumn is getting closer and closer, I don't have much time left in Yunzhou County, don't let your guard down, if you can complete the exchange of war horses as soon as possible, it will be as soon as possible, so that my Yunzhou County can have more time to prepare."
"Xia Guan understands! It will live up to the expectations of the prince! ”
"Good!"
