Zhao Kaiwen was able to be in the top three of the high school jinshi list, and won the sixteen states of Yanyun, he was stupid in Song Huizong's mouth, and the people around him laughed, which also showed how much Song Huizong liked this son. Zhao Kai was speechless, he had seen Yang Zhi, Chen Da, and Master Bei put this painting together, and knew that what Song Huizong said was right, it seems that everything is a genius who has the final say, just like Master Pei said, he can understand the iron painting at a glance, but Master Pei thinks that he can't make the best.

  Empress Zheng and Prince Zhao Huan saw it, they couldn't laugh or cry, Yang Zhi and Zhao Kai were still thinking about this and business when they swept Yanyun, it seemed that the two of them didn't have much pressure at that time. Li Di and Liang Kai of the painting academy were also amazed when they saw the iron painting, and learned that Zhao Duofu was responsible for the sale of this painting, Li Di asked Zhao Duofu: "How much does this painting sell?"

  Zhao Duofu grinned and said: "Yang Zhi said in the letter, my third brother's painting is only played twice, one is left in the workshop as the bottom, and the other is sent to the palace. In addition, if the masters are willing to paint bamboo and be beaten into iron paintings, we will buy paper paintings for 1,200 paintings. ”

  Zhao Duofu looked like a businessman, which made Song Huizong laugh, but Li Di frowned and thought for a moment and said: "Princess, in this way, you let Yang Zhi promise to give me a painting inscription poem, and then send the picture scroll and the typed iron painting back, and I will paint one for him, one thousand taels of silver." ”

  Song Huizong understood that Li Di was happy to see the hunt, but this transaction was not a loss, although Yang Zhi wrote few poems, but there were many excellent works; Zhao Duofuxiao was able to Li Di's status in the painting world, even his father Song Huizong could not compare, and agreed on the spot: "Master Li, it is so decided, but Yang Zhi's poems can only be in the picture scroll, not on the iron painting." ”

  "That's a must. Li Di was not angry at all: "That kind of picture scroll is unique." ”

  The onlookers actually understood that Song Huizong was reminding the prime ministers that King Yun Zhao Kai definitely had a way to raise money, and if he wanted to entangle, change the angle; Li Bangyan finally spoke: "Since King Yun has taken all aspects into account, then let King Yun start first, and when the treasury is abundant in the future, we will discuss the next step." ”

  Li Bangyan left a living mouth, everyone didn't squeak anymore, Song Huizong looked at it and said: "Since there is no objection, then there is no problem." San Lang, where do you transfer people to manage it?"

  Song Huizong has been an emperor for decades, and he understands everything, and naturally knows that there are too many people in the officialdom who can come up with good ideas, and too few people who can do things, Zhao Kai said calmly: "Cai Suitian, Cao Wanchu, just let me choose a few more officials and students, if you can, transfer Zhang Xin back from Junzhou, transfer 3,000 people from the prison, and escort it, that is, I brought back 500 athletes who admire the Central Plains, and it is enough to have them." ”

  Zhang Xin is Zhang Qi's grandson, who turned out to be a tax supervisor in Suzhou, who was squeezed out by Cai Jing and degraded Junzhou, such a little person doesn't matter at all even to the enemy Cai Jing. Yun Wang Zhao Kai was too good to speak, but Song Huizong was bottomless, and asked seriously: "Are you really good?"

  Zhao Kai nodded and said: "It should be able to produce salt in half a year, but the slower people come, the longer the delay can't be counted as mine." ”

  Song Huizong turned around and said to Wang Hao: "If you can't get people and money within half a month, I will change my appearance." ”

  Song Huizong rarely spoke in such a stern tone, Wang Hao understood that a large amount of money was needed to reopen the bureau, but for Yan Yun himself to repeatedly say that he had no money, Zhu Mian poured dirty water on himself in that scuffle, and now that he has a place of wealth, Song Huizong naturally attaches great importance to it. Wang Hao reluctantly agreed, anyway, it was a knife to stretch out his head and shrink his head, and he didn't care about the result.

  After the banquet dispersed, Zhao Kai didn't expect Shen Boyi to wait for him outside the hall, and Shen Boyi saluted Zhao Kai and said, "The lower officials have something to ask for." ”

  Yun Wang Zhao Kai smiled and said, "Lord Shen, please speak." ”

  Shen Boyi said: "Please King Yun once successful, promote this salt making method throughout the country." ”

  Zhao Kai restrained his smile and said: "I understand Lord Shen's thoughts, but what I can tell Lord Shen is that I can hand over this salt field to Neiku in the end, but I will not promote this law, which will be a fatal blow to the salt tax in Jiezhou and Chengdu, and most of the profits after promotion will eventually fall into the hands of powerful salt merchants, and the imperial court will not get much; ”

  Shen Boyi's father, Shen Kuo, was also a supporter of the New Party back then, Shen Boyi heard and saw it since he was a child, and knew the whole process of success or failure of the law change. Weng Yanshen and Yang Shi, who were not far away, couldn't stop nodding, Zhao Kai's opinion really spoke to the hearts of the New Party and those who were in favor of changing the law.

  The purpose of the Qingmiao Law is one of the main measures taken by Wang Anshi to change the old Changping system, which was to change the rigid practice of "reducing the market price when the quantity is expensive, and increasing the market price when the quantity is cheap", and flexibly convert the grain reserves of the Changping and Guanghui warehouses into the capital, and lend them to the peasants and urban handicraftsmen at an interest rate of 20 percent, so as to alleviate the phenomenon of usury and exploitation by the people, and at the same time increase the government's fiscal revenue, hoping that "the people will not increase the amount and the country will use it enough."

  However, when local officials lent money, they did not consider whether the target had the ability to repay, and forcibly asked the people to borrow money from the government, and arbitrarily raised the interest rate for personal gain. In this way, the Qingmiao Law degenerated into a harsh government policy of lending usury and collecting interest, and many poor people were unable to repay their debts when they were due, so they could only turn to the rich families for help, which to a certain extent not only did not inhibit the annexation, but also intensified the annexation.

  Weng Yanshen walked over to Zhao Kai: "The prince's knowledge has grown again. ”

  Zhao Kai hurriedly said: "Teacher, it was because I went to Taiyuan that I knew that I could still do something. ”

  Weng Yanshen asked with some concern: "But if you get huge profits in the salt fields, in the eyes of people with ulterior motives, they will think that you are a loss of virtue." ”

  Zhao Kai laughed: "I am an idle king, and it is only worrying that virtue is not lost." ”

  Weng Yanshen and Shen Boyi laughed, what Zhao Kai said was not good, but it was indeed such a truth, if Zhao Kai showed his martial arts strategy in the court every day, then some people were really worried, at least the prince Zhao Huan would be restless. Zhao Kai, the king of Yun, told Gongsun Sheng about his arrival in Bianliang again, and invited the three of them to drink tea and taste Gongsun Sheng's medicinal food, and the three of them happily agreed.
