Chapter 947: Leave No One Behind

In Runzhou, Song Huizong saw Yang Zhi's recital on the Salt Tea Division and Tuntian and nodded repeatedly, and asked Zhao Ye and the others standing on both sides: "What do you think?"

Zhao Ye said without hesitation: "It is feasible, Yang Zhi's request for Tuntian is a manifestation of being prepared to stay in Bianliang for a long time." Now the tea production in Hangzhou and Huizhou is growing substantially, the salt areas of Xiuzhou and Hangzhou are the pillars of the salt industry in Jiangnan, plus the grain of Taihu Lake and Dongting Lake, Jiangnan can become an economic region in its own right, and the establishment of a salt and tea division can increase the income of the imperial court. With this money, the treasury is sufficient, and it is possible to recruit troops in Jiangnan to help the people of Lianghuai. ”

In fact, everyone in the hall understood that Yang Zhi's idea was aimed at the urgent needs of Song Huizong, a large number of officials moved south, Runzhou was facing huge financial expenses, and Runzhou City was a little small; however, the cost of building a new city was undoubtedly astronomical, so none of them proposed a plan. But Yang Zhi's proposal is feasible, where the salt and tea division is located, there must be a gathering of merchants, Hangzhou was originally the capital of Qian Yue in the five dynasties, with a good foundation, and the people who went to the south of the Yangtze River also need to have a place to settle, just take what they need.

Fan Zhixu read the chapter again, and found that Yang Zhi was really cunning, and there was no word on the chapter to move the capital, but the idea was that a companion capital could be established in Hangzhou; Zhu Shengfei came forward and said: "The minister is willing to go to Hangzhou to take charge of the salt and tea division and the resettlement of displaced people." ”

Song Huizong said with a smile: "Okay, Shengfei, Jiangnan is stable, Bianliang has a stable rear, my Great Song Dynasty can recover the lost territory sooner or later, you will use the two Zhejiang transfer envoys and Hangzhou prefects to take the southeast tea and salt affairs, and the Jinggi transfer envoy Lu Yihao is also in charge of the Henan Salt and Tea Division, and the Jingdong transfer makes Liang Yangzu the Huainan Salt and Tea Division." In addition, the province of Zhongshu replied to Yang Zhi that he could tuntian for all the royal fields and official fields in Gyeonggi. ”

King Jing Zhao Qi almost laughed out loud, it seems that the old Jiukang King Zhao Gou took a big advantage, Huainan is the tea place, the problem is that Zhao Gou has no salt in his hands, with Zhao Gou's generals Liang Yangzu and Yang Weizhong defeated in Shandong, the salt field in Dengzhou has fallen into the hands of the Jin people; and Yang Zhi can continuously transport salt from Jiezhou, as long as the salt and tea are linked, those tea merchants in Huainan will not go to Zhao Gou's stinky feet, after all, the control of the two Huai is still on the Runzhou side, and Zhao Gou can only manage the part of Chuzhou.

As soon as Runzhou's order arrived, Yang Zhi excitedly said to Lu Yihao: "We have passed the customs, you hurry up and start preparations." ”

Lu Yihao issued an announcement in the name of the Transit Division, and decided to hold a drinking party in the Left-behind Division to promote this matter, and surprisingly, after Yang Zhi and Lu Yihao discussed, the objects of the invitation included the three sects and nine streams, scholars, butchers, landlords, merchants, officials, and soldiers.

This list puzzled everyone, could it be that Yang Zhi had other things to discuss? However, the top brass of the Dingbei Army knew that after Yang Zhi had dealt with Zhang Yong and the others, his first move was grain and the market, and it must have been aimed at those merchants who transported grain out of Bianliang. This is also the difficulty encountered by the Dingbei Army, Yang Zhi and Liang Xun both have the labels of Song Huizong, Cai Jing and others, so they are not recognized by the gentry officials of Bianliang.

The officials can also change, all those who do not cooperate are dismissed, but the gentry have no choice, especially many large landowners in Kaifeng, who are even more opposed to the Dingbei Army's attempt to curb grain prices. Yang Zhi and Liang Xun decided to make an example of Zhao Kai and make a fuss about Zhao Kai's affairs.

The transfer of a large number of materials is not something that Zhao Kai can do alone, so those who helped Zhao Kai issue official documents, even the officials and officers who assisted were all arrested and put in prison, and even the cars, mules, horses, boats, and bosses who helped transport materials were all invited by Liang Xun to Kaifeng Mansion for questioning, and found that three of them actually transported grain to the grain merchants in the county, and together with the grain merchants, Liang Xun was regarded as an accomplice of thieves and seized the family property.

Although some officials were gone, the industry was still in Bianliang, and it was still sealed by Liang Xun; this move made Li Gang understand that Zhao Kai's life was really in danger, so he simply ignored Chen Dong, let Chen Dong and others let go and toss in the city, and invited all kinds of people to oppose the Dingbei army. Lu Yihao's invitation is a watershed, saying that he doesn't care about the three religions and nine streams, as long as he is willing to get close to the Dingbei Army, he can become a friend, if he is unwilling, he will see in the future.

Lu Yihao, Liang Xun, and Wang Shan were found by Yang Zhi for a small banquet in the left-behind mansion at noon, and when they saw Shi Mojie beside Yang Zhi, Liang Xun knew that Yang Zhi was ready; ”

Shi Mojie saluted the three of them and said: "Xiaguan was ordered to follow Master Sansi and Zen Master Chengbing to eradicate those people of the Double Dragon Society in Hebei, and killed more than 100 people in total, very lucky, many of them openly identified as merchants and landlords, and had dealings with money banks and businesses on the Bianliang side, and Xiaguan collected a total of 43 account books. After comparison and on-the-spot confessions, the identities of 57 members of the DDA and Kim people in Gyeonggi can be confirmed, and 33 of them are people with great status.

In addition, Lord Zhao Liangsi is now a member of the Taiyuan Rite Department, and he also provided a part of the list, adding twenty-one people, and fifteen people are celebrities. I think we can investigate and inquire about these people, and I am sure that I can ask the answer I want, the Bianliang Imperial City Division has been canceled, but most of the files of the Imperial City Division have been obtained by me. ”

Wang Shan didn't quite understand the weight of Shi Mojie's words, but Liang Xun and Lu Yihao knew that Shi Mojie said two meanings, one was that the spies of the Jin Kingdom could be determined, and the other was that when investigating this matter, if Yang Zhi had an idea, relying on the information of the Imperial City Division, he could still make some articles.

Yang Zhi waved his hand and said: "The information of the Imperial City Division is in contact with Gonggong He, if he wants it, he will send it to Runzhou, but as long as it is a spy of the Jin Kingdom, he can't let any of them go; on the surface, some of them joined the Double Dragon Society in order to destroy Liao at the beginning, but even Gao Yu will cooperate with the Jin people to kidnap the craftsmen, whether they have done something similar, just wait for Lord Shi to investigate." The time of the move was at the beginning of the evening banquet, seventy-eight houses, all searched. ”

Liang Xun also understands that Yang Zhi is really helpless, the salt tea division will make money, and it will take a month or two to exchange it for food, but the soldiers and civilians of Bianliang will survive, and the Jin army will soon be killed, without thunderbolt means, they can't even make preparations, let alone defeat the Jin army. The five people discussed the details before they dispersed, Liang Xun, Shi Mojie, and Wang Shan went to prepare, and Yang Zhi signed a warrant to Yang Yizhong and Liang Xing, and the city was closed this evening.
