The court meetings in the Song Dynasty were very complicated.

Chang Chao is a trap, and everyone just pretends to be a Bodhisattva.

In the entire Song Dynasty, it was estimated that only Zhao Yunchu, the idiot from the previous dynasty, came to the Chang Dynasty willingly, and it could be said that it was rain or shine. According to Shen An's judgment, even a knife from the sky might not be able to stop this person.

And Zhao Zong'e is a person who is not welcomed by everyone. As long as he appears, Chang Chao will have more smell.

"I've met all of you."

Zhao Zong'e knew the power of his gas bombs, so he greeted him more than ten steps away.

Han Qi said calmly: "He hasn't been to Changchao for a long time. Why today?"

Zeng Gongliang shook his head, "I don't know."

Zhao Zong'e came to look for Shen An.

"Stop it!"

As soon as he approached Shen An, Shen An firmly refused.

Zhao Zonge felt a little resentful, "He is right here. Shen Longtu, is Jia Jun in Zongzheng Temple one of yours?"

"Jia Jun?"

Shen An was busy when he came back. In the evening, when the couple reunited after a long separation, they naturally worked hard and then fell asleep, so they didn't hear about it.

Did Yang Zhuoxue not tell Shen An?

Zhao Zong'e, who felt that he had offended Shen An, couldn't help but secretly praise Yang Zhuoxue's character, and then briefly talked about himself and Jia Jun, "A certain person definitely did not bully him. Zhao Zhonglin who bullied him was interrupted by Mrs. Ling's messenger The legs seem to be the hands that Wen Xiaozhong came out of."

"Easy to say." Shen An didn't expect his wife to be so tough, and couldn't help but feel happy.

When Zhao Zong'e saw that he had nothing to do, he quietly touched the edge of the clan's group of people, farted a few times, and left in a hurry.

"Who the hell farted?"

An elder of the clan blushed and looked around, but Zhao Zonge had already disappeared into the crowd and disappeared.

An official next to him sniffed it for a few times and said suspiciously: "Why does this smell seem familiar? Yes, it looks like Zhao Zong'e's fart!"

Han Jiang was thinking about the affairs of the Third Division when a chamberlain came over and said, "Prime Minister Han, the officials have ordered you to go to Xiaochao for a meeting."

"yes."

The third minister is the prime minister, and he is also a frequent visitor to the Xiaochao meeting.

…

Umrah will be uneventful, and the weather this year was finally mentioned.

"The news reported from everywhere is not very good. There was some drought last year, and it doesn't look like it will get better this year. I'm not worried about anything else. I'm just worried about whether people will have enough food in their homes."

Zhao Shu had eye blisters, it seemed he didn't get much sleep last night.

This is the price of kingship.

"Don't worry, officials. This time the Western Bandits surrendered. Although they gave a lot of money and food at once, it was just once. From now on, the three divisions no longer have to save money and food for the northwest. If there is a drought, they can use the money and food stored in the warehouse to provide disaster relief. But To protect the people from starving to death.”

"Good!" Han Qi praised: "Xiang Han is indeed very confident."

Zhao Shu felt relieved, "We must prepare early. If there are any signs, we must transport them in advance. If something happens, we can dispatch them nearby."

"Yes." Han Jiang looked very confident.

Since he took over as the envoy of the Third Division, many affairs of the Third Division have gradually been on track. As the money bag of Song Dynasty, what is the most important thing for Sansi?

order!

What the Third Division needs is order, everything must be in order.

He felt that he had accomplished all this, so he was inevitably a little relaxed.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Shen An is out of work.

Zhao Shu frowned slightly, nodded and said, "You tell me."

Ever since Shen An applied to come to Xiaochaohui yesterday, he had been wondering what this person wanted to do.

Now comes.

"Your Majesty, there was a run on the bank a while ago and it almost closed down. If it weren't for the property from the northwest, I'm afraid it would have been doomed this time. Think about it, if the bank closed down, those people would have no choice but to borrow money from loan sharks, and they would lose everything. , selling sons and daughters, and the whole family begging for a living, how pitiful it is!"

Zhao Shu felt his head was numb, and he said with a straight face: "Speak carefully."

Shen An was setting the stage, and Han Qi, who was familiar with him, was ready to see who this kid was going to trick.

"I thought about it a lot and found out that the run on the bank was due to the large amount of cash withdrawals made by Sansi, which emptied most of the bank's money. What do those loan sharks want to see most? Isn't it the bank closing down? So they Mobilize relatives and friends, mobilize those profiteers to run..."

Han Jiang interjected: "The third division took the money to pay the bill. This attack by the Hedong Road army cost a lot of money and food. Besides, if it weren't for the Hedong Road army's shock in Xingqing Mansion, the Western thieves would probably still be there at the moment Fight stubbornly!"

This matter is over, but Shen An's old story came up again, which made Han Jiang quite unhappy, so she stabbed him.

Without the army from Hedong Road to suppress the formation, could the Western bandits be defeated?

Han Qi glanced at him and sighed slightly.

Lao Han, what does this mean?

The same surname is Han, but Han Jiang's rank is much worse than that of Han Qi.

Han Qi felt that this family member was a little eager and complained without carefully considering Shen An's words. It was like... he had never been beaten severely, so he was inexperienced.

Shen An chuckled and said: "The Hedong Road army attacked decisively. This was one of the important reasons for the Western bandits to surrender. But one code should be regarded as another code. The Third Division felt that it was inappropriate to take down the official for a large amount this time."

"Say it!" Han Jiang had a cold face, but still maintained her demeanor.

Elegance and demeanor are one of the standard features of an important minister. He feels that his demeanor can crush Shen An.

Shen An smiled and said: "The Third Division has purchased a lot of supplies this time, and it is certain that the bill will be paid, but I just wonder why we can't pay in batches?"

The purchase of the third company is a one-time payment, the amount of money used is too large, and the news is also big.

"Pay in batches?" Han Jiang asked puzzledly: "Why is that so?"

Why!

Shen An sighed, "The Third Division purchases countless things every year, but the lower officials feel that there is no order, and there is no supervisor in the middle. What does Prime Minister Han think?"

This matter...

Han Jiang nodded, feeling very sad.

This is my fault!

Zhao Shu felt that Shen An was a bit aggressive, so he said, "Let's get over it."

"Yes. I just thought of a way." Shen An said: "I was thinking, why not sign a contract with the merchant before purchasing?"

"Contract?" Han Jiang was a little confused.

"The three companies rely on people to purchase and inspect goods, but people have poor eyesight and selfish motives, so contracts are the best." Shen An said: "Before purchasing, we must clearly state the quantity and price of the goods needed, and then the price of the goods. Condition, how big and heavy it should be, how old or new it is, how many years it is guaranteed to last, and how to make up for any problems if they arise..."

Han Jiang's eyes lit up, "I'll wait for you to think about this..."

He thought about it carefully and said, "These are all included in the contract. If something is wrong later, just follow the diagram and find out who has the problem. How wonderful!"

Of course it's wonderful, the tenders in later generations are just these things, just more detailed.

But in the Song Dynasty, it had an inspiring effect.

Zhao Shu lowered his head and pondered, Han Qi stroked his beard and frowned, Zeng Gongliang shook his head, Bao Zheng nodded slightly and smiled, Fu Bi glanced at Shen An, with surprise in his eyes...

"How many years can it be guaranteed? How can you tell me this?" Han Jiang was like a primary school student asking for advice at this moment, very polite.

"Everything has an expiration date." Shen An said: "For example, chopsticks, let's say a pair of chopsticks can be used for at least one year, regardless of whether they are dirty or not, right?"

Han Jiang said with some embarrassment: "But at my house, we change them every month."

The sanitary conditions are really good!

Just some leverage.

"Then let's talk about tables and chairs. For example, if Sansi purchases a batch of chairs, how many years will they last?"

Han Jiang thought about it carefully, "If you don't mess around, you can use it for ten years."

Nowadays, tables and chairs are all made of solid wood, and are made by good carpenters. It is not a problem to last ten or eight years. Some can last for decades, and they have become family heirlooms.

"Then let's make it ten years and write it clearly in the contract. If it breaks down within ten years, how will the seller compensate it? How about repairing it for free, for example?"

Han Jiang looked at Shen An and suddenly slapped his forehead. The sound was so loud that Shen An worried that he would suffer a cerebral hemorrhage.

"That's right!" Han Jiang said happily: "How come I didn't think of that? If the desks and chairs are broken within a certain period of time, just ask them to replace them with new ones."

I go!

Han Jiang is more ruthless than me!

Shen An felt that this was too cruel, "How about this, if something is broken within a year, it will be replaced with a new one, and if something is broken, it will be repaired within ten years, and no money will be charged."

"Okay!" Han Jiang cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have been an official for many years, and every time I encounter damage to my pen, ink, paper, or inkstone, or the seat, or the door... This official office buys a lot of things, and I later found out that there was someone among them. What should you do if you pass it off as a substandard product? If you find one, punish both. UU Reading www.uukｎshu.netｅ But this cannot stop this kind of thing. What Shen An said is a good strategy. Only a piece of contract is needed. From then on, the government and merchants Everyone is at peace with each other. If anyone dares to cause trouble in the middle, he only needs to check the contract... How wonderful!"

He looked at Shen An and said with piercing eyes: "How did you think of this?"

"Haha!" Shen An chuckled, "Some people say that knowledge is in books, but I think that knowledge is in daily life. Everything in food, clothing, housing and transportation is knowledge. All you need to do is bow your head and think carefully."

"This is a great thing to say!"

Han Qi said: "I used to think that knowledge was in books, but after serving as an official for many years and getting older, I realized that knowledge is right in front of me, and everything is knowledge."

Such an era is most suitable for the birth of new doctrines, but those great Confucian scholars who were obsessed with Confucian classics could not find knowledge that could make the Song Dynasty stand upright again. Instead of looking for chapters and sentences, they could only watch the Song Dynasty gradually sink...

Shen An was instilling certain things into this era step by step, and then watching the Song Dynasty change little by little, the joy of harvest made him feel very comfortable.

That's what I'm here for!

He smiled and said: "That's right."

Han Jiang asked: "What if the merchant violates the contract?"

"This still requires a contract." Shen An said: "For example, let's determine a clause. If the merchant cannot replace it with a new one within ten days, or the merchant cannot repair it within ten days... then it will be considered a breach of the contract, which can be punished... For example, that The table is worth one thousand dollars, so we will fine him three thousand dollars. Under such a shock, which merchant would dare to breach the contract?"

Shen An looked at Han Jiang with a happy face and thought of his experience in participating in tenders in later generations.

Compared with that, the contract in front of me is just a child's play.
