Shao Song

After Zhang Rong returned victoriously, Song Ting was uplifted for a while.

No way, the sense of security brought by things like natural insurance is not comparable to others, especially for the low-level people and bureaucrats who don't know the soldiers.

And to be honest, sometimes they can’t be blamed for their ignorance or blind obedience. The main reason is that the army of the Song Dynasty has never been reliable. Compared with the army, they would rather believe in a river or a checkpoint. As for why the army is unreliable, it’s hard to say... Some things, it’s hard to tell who is the cause and who is the result. God knows that it is because of Sanyi Huihe and other things that the army’s combat effectiveness is weak, or the army’s combat effectiveness. Weakness led to Sanyi Huihe.

However, in any case, there should always be a final spectrum in the heart of the highest level, that is, the solidity of mountains and rivers is not in danger.

Of course, there are still differences in what this virtue refers to... Or, if it is true that the upper and lower sides, the left and the right are one, the Great Song Dynasty would have colonized the Lion Kingdom long ago, so Yanyun has not recovered after the founding of the country for more than 100 years. Decreased into a momentary excitement for the ownership of the control of the middle section of the river in front of the capital?

Going back to the front, no matter what the virtue refers to, and no matter what the consequences of this attack are, no matter whether Zhao Jiu, as an official, or a few reliable ministers in the central government, there is no universality. To stop this excitement within the court and the people, because the people really need this sense of security to comfort themselves.

Moreover, this sense of security can bring real money.

There are still ten days to celebrate the Chinese New Year. After the Chinese New Year, it is four years since Jianyan, and this means that the change of Jingkang will soon usher in the glorious third anniversary... This does not mean that this kind of mess is worth celebrating every year , But to say that after so long, the complicated human mind is tired of the war, and the so-called mind is determined; on the other hand, it is used to the war and the turmoil.

Therefore, although the Yellow River is still raging, although the backward areas of southern Jingxiang and northern Guangnan are still entrenched with a large number of open rebels (this is the most direct internal trauma caused by the Jingkang change, it is really out of control in a short period of time), However, the economy of various places is gradually recovering, and the symptoms of total blood loss caused by the previous Jingkang change are also being clearly and unmistakably healed.

One of the most obvious signs is that the refugees from the south are gradually integrating into the local area, business travel is re-active in various places, and taxes in various places south of the Huai River have begun to pick up on a large scale.

At this time, the recapture of this strategic demarcation line of the Yellow River (at least it can be publicized) is undoubtedly a stimulus for the recovery of industrial, commercial and agricultural production.

The masters certainly don't know what a strong heart needle is, but the general meaning is clear.

However, in the face of such a straightforward victory and the so-called gratifying expectations for the recovery of agriculture, industry and commerce, the court first fell into the financial crisis at the end of the year.

The reason, it's definitely not that the assault has spent too much money.

In fact, everyone can guess how much...that is, far away cannot quench near thirst. There is no doubt about the strategic significance of this battle, but how do you say the reward?

Moreover, due to Liang Shanbo’s previous special position, when the imperial court was engaged in the establishment of the imperial battalion, when increasing taxes to the southeast and Jingxiang, there was no imperial navy from beginning to end.

But now that such a big victory is achieved, whether it is a normal reward, or the army is eagerly gathered and stabilized on the Yellow River, the grain will not be mentioned for the time being, but where does the money come from?

And if this force is not quickly integrated into the imperial finances, the people of Tokyo City may not be happy.

"Can you print some Jiaozi?"

After all, he is a veteran official. This Japanese Wende Temple discusses politics. When it comes to this hole, Xu Jingheng and Xu Xianggong came prepared and directly proposed a feasible plan. "Imitated the establishment of Jiaoziwu in Tokyo..."

Jiaozi is a paper currency, and the Song Dynasty Jiaozi is the earliest widely used paper currency in the world, and it is very successful. It is a model of history books. Of course, Zhao Jiu sitting on the throne knows.

However, the official nodded instinctively at first when he heard the words, but after a little thought, he slowly shook his head:

"Before when Bashu Zhaokai reformed Southwest Finance, I had specifically asked about Yizhou Jiaozi, so I knew that to send a child, first of all, there must be a reserve, and secondly, a credible responsibility. In the past, Yizhou Jiaozi served three times. One hundred and sixty thousand yuan was used as a reserve, and one million yuan was paid. Moreover, it was a peaceful year, the court was stable, the people were at ease, and there were more than a dozen wealthy businessmen in Sichuan who jointly provided credibility, and this succeeded. Now here in Tokyo, since it is short of money and is on the front line, where is the reserve fund? Where does the people come from? How much can they send? If for this hundreds of thousands, one or two million dollars, the imperial court will be ruined in vain. The credibility of the company is not worth the loss."

"One point is one point." Xu Jingheng obviously also considered this issue. "The military salaries and the salaries of the imperial government officials around Tokyo are now in the official treasury of the Tokyo City East Hubu. Why use this money as a reserve and send out a couple of hundreds of thousands?"

The temple was silent for a while.

But after a while, the imperial capital, Wang Yuan, had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask: "Xu Xianggong, he took the liberty of being an official. That's the case. Time is in a hurry, and there is no time to print Jiaozi, right?"

"What I mean is to divide the military salaries and salaries of the army in the imperial camp into three, and first take out two of them and use them as rewards and salaries for the imperial navy army, and give them to the army and the hundred officials. For normal supply, let this year pass first." Above the hall, in the highest-level meetings, Xu Jingheng didn't bother to cover up. "Then use the remaining share to prepare for the golden hand, and try to collect hundreds of thousands of live money out, in order to connect the follow-up transfer of wealth."

The hall became quieter.

In other words, when Xu Jingheng said that when he took the money to hand in the child, the atmosphere of the people present was already a bit wrong.

Because everyone knows that the problem is not how to use these little tricks to achieve financial smoothness, but because there is a financial loophole, since the money from the imperial army and the hundred officials is to be paid, someone is destined to receive the child!

But right now, as the target of the imperial navy who has just made great contributions to the court, it is not easy to send this handover to the other side. Therefore, this matter has a destined result... Well, it doesn't matter whether it is four or three, or a good year first, and a good Shangyuan Festival later, anyway, it is the imperial army and the central hundred officials to lead the acquaintance.

However, after all, Jiaozi is Jiaozi, not real money. Even with the so-called reputation and precedent, in this year, it is destined to have an exchange discount.

What's more, it is a special situation in wartime, after all, if the front line is not good, the foundation is broken, and the credibility goes bankrupt, and the handover becomes a blank sheet of embarrassment, it is not impossible.

In a word, this is to cut the flesh of the army and central bureaucrats in the imperial battalion to fill this hole.

And this is the fundamental reason why Wang Yuan, as a semi-empty high-level, still bites his head and talks with Zaizhi. In name, he is the imperial battalion, but in fact, his core power is the imperial battalion. The Chinese military stationed in Sakon, Tokyo, directly controlled part of the logistics, that is, the logistics of the two major units of Wang De and Wang Yan.

It's about your final core power, your own political life, can you not worry?

But the question is, what's the use of being anxious?

"During the previous reorganization, there were already a lot of dissatisfaction among the various departments of the imperial camp." In the silence, Wang Yuan first said something inexplicable, and then tried to ask again. "How many trades did the army of the imperial camp and the hundreds of officials in the center receive?"

"Fairly apportioned according to the precedent." Xu Jingheng answered simply, impeccably. "Not only here, but the officials in Henan also want to get some acquaintances... dissatisfied is also dissatisfied."

Wang Yuan was completely silent, even the curved end on the side who wanted to speak for several times didn't say anything in the end.

In fact, it's not just a curved end.

You know, although the imperial court discusses military affairs, although it is only a few rulers, there are some important officials in the capital, the Privy Council, the Hanlin Academy, and the Yushi Taichung... For example, only Yushi Zhongcheng and the two halls of Yushi Taichung are qualified to be in the Yushitai. Column... There are always twenty or thirty people in the forest.

But these people are actually speechless.

I want to say, of course, I have something to say, but no matter how much I say, can real money be made in this Tokyo city in a short time?

What's more, in terms of this kind of imperial court, it is nothing more than the official, the provincial, and the Privy Council. The Yushitai is just playing a gong next to it.

But now, when Xu Xianggong said a word, Lu Xianggong didn't say a word, it was considered to be the decision of the provincial government, and Wang Xianggong and Chen Xianggong at the Privy Council saw Wang Yuan come up to inquire about the problem that was finally blocked by Xu Xianggong. In other words, it seems that he has given up his willingness to discuss and is ready to accept his fate.

At this time, from a standpoint, some people want to make trouble and have to wait for the official to express their opinions.

"What's the difference?" Zhao Jiu on the throne pondered for a long time, and finally spoke, but seemed unwilling.

"If there are 300,000 sticks, you can survive in abundance." Xu Jingheng continued to answer calmly.

"Three hundred thousand guan..." Zhao Jiu hesitated for a long time. "Can't we just raise one or two by thinking about it? The real thing will do, and Jiaozi will really shake the military."

As soon as Xu Jingheng said this, and many officials below had not yet turned their minds, Yu Shi Zhongcheng Li Guang suddenly stepped forward and refuted it face to face: "The official's remark is ridiculous! The country is volatile, and it is necessary to support the 200,000 imperial camp. The soldiers and horses have tried their best, and the people's livelihood is also unbearable. How can we continue to fish?"

Zhao Jiu's complexion did not change, only ready to endure the past.

However, Li Guang didn’t care, he didn’t want to answer when he saw the official Zhao’s family. On the contrary, his speech became more intense:

"Does the officials think that to raise these soldiers, as long as the money and food are effectively delivered? As everyone knows, the military affairs are complicated, involve a lot of involvement, and consume the people's resources. The ministers consult the local memorials, the Privy Council's provincial bureau orders, and the records are clear... such as When Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, Yue Fei and others wanted to build weapons, the imperial court asked craftsmen from all over the place behind them to speed up the mining of iron ore. As a result, the more iron ore was mined, the people everywhere lacked iron, and the artisans were recruited. After that, even the folks couldn’t even find a potter!"

Zhao Jiu remained silent.

"Then these three places used to send cow hides and beef tendons to serve as military resources after the fall, and for this, a total of 6,000 or 7,000 cows were issued. There are strict orders, and some states and counties directly force the people to kill cattle in private in order to send the military resources correctly..." The more Zhao Jiu kept silent, the more Li Guang kept going. "There are also large troops going out and stationing, not to mention the scattered military disciplines and torturing the people. It is the military discipline of Yue Fei's imperial army that is slightly better. How can you really not disturb the people? The army is moving forward, don't you need livestock? When the army goes to the Yellow River, tens of thousands of people have to dig trenches and break bridges. Shouldn’t the army be stationed to occupy the people’s land? Such as forage and other things are not worth a lot of money in the books, but can be concentrated in one place, how can they be supplied? The people raise it by themselves!"

Zhao Jiu still didn't say a word, nor was he expressionless.

At this moment, Li Guang, who had finished spraying in one breath, calmed down a little... and then secretly regretted himself.

In other words, when Li Gang gave up, Li Guang, as the natural leader of this faction, also became the prince in the Imperial History, but he always couldn't control his temper. If in the past Li Gang was a habitually condescending ‘child’s view’ of the Zhao official family, now Li Guang can’t help but ‘holds his position’ in front of the official’s from the bottom up.

More than that, Li Gang's third brother, Li Jing, had a bad temper and was impassioned at every turn from these two men at a young age.

It can only be said that these people are close friends and brothers.

However, unlike Li Gang, no one dared to persuade him at the time. Here, Li Guang, he was stubborn at the time. In front of the officials, the full house of civil and military might not dare to blend in, but in private, there are still many people who will persuade him. of. And Li Guang Li Taifa himself is somewhat different from Li Gang Li Boji. He himself is willing to listen to the persuasion, and he is aware of the existence of this problem. He knows that the authority of the government is now established. It is no good for such an overlord to insist on the bow... But the character is like this. , As long as you go to the hall, there are countless civil and military resources, and the official family is in front, then you can't help it.

"Officials."

After blaming himself for a while in his heart, Li Guang reluctantly put away that tone and continued to be sincere. "The minister is not accusing him. In the current situation, it is really necessary to provide for the army first. Before the imperial battalion was established, at this time the maintenance of the water army was supported by the minister. The minister just wanted to remind the official that things in the world are not that simple. You can't just look at the surface of everything. Before the changes in Jingkang, last year and the year before the war, now you have to support soldiers and horses everywhere, Henan's civilian power has long been exhausted. At this time, 300,000 tons of money, not much, just a temporary lack of change. After the spring ploughing, the money and grain from the south can be delivered. But it is not a lot to say. Once it is forcibly obtained in Henan, it will make the people miserable and unsustainable."

At this point, there was finally a commotion in the temple. Obviously, some people wanted to agree and some people wanted to oppose it, and Prime Minister Lu Haowen, who had been silent, was also ready to speak in a timely manner to ease the atmosphere.

"Li Qing's words are quite true."

However, at this moment, Zhao Jiu, who was sitting in the throne, finally spoke, but it was a little bit beyond the expectation of some people in the palace. "I am still a little naive about raising soldiers, but the overall situation is so, I can only persuade everyone to bear with them for the country."

Innocent, it is a good word to say "Zhuangzi", but the Zhao official family here, although it means to cover up, but there is also a tendency to admit mistakes.

Therefore, not only was Li Guangwei stunned, but also the hall that had been turbulent for a while suddenly quieted down.

"I have a few words about this matter." Zhao Jiu continued to speak slowly. "First, Zhang Rong and his men have done a great job. It is absolutely impossible to reward only one flag. These three hundred thousand guanxi must be given, and they must be given as soon as possible, extremely fast, and in sufficient quantities. There must be no negligence and lack of anything, otherwise, let alone. The credibility of the imperial court is the cause of military rebellion, and no one can be blamed."

This is the speech that has been discussed a long time ago, so there is no speech in the temple.

"Secondly, the imperial army has no military exploits this time, and it is not easy to change their salary without authorization, not to mention borrowing from the other commanders, otherwise the imperial court will hardly build a little credibility in the army. There is still a problem."

At this moment, there was a sudden chaos in the hall, because hearing what Zhao official said, it seemed that he was going to pay the sergeant with all his strength, but he wanted to pay all the officials to the middle official? !

Logically speaking, as civil servants and ministers of the country, it seems that we should share our worries for the country.

But the problem is that the officials in Tokyo City and Henan are not just the high-ranking officials in the temple, but also many low-level officials. These 300,000 guns are just handed over to everyone. If it’s a big winter, wouldn’t it be necessary? Some people really drink northwest wind?

And even the people in the temple, there are really poor people, okay?

How can this be tolerated?

"Third," Zhao Jiu rushed ahead of everyone and continued to raise his voice. "You ministers, not to mention the people who are drifting around with you, they are just ordinary people who have been in office and have experienced several wars. They are undoubtedly loyal ministers, but they have only been half-paid... Now the country is only a temporary difficulty. , It’s not like before, letting them fill in this hole, I just have no conscience."

The atmosphere in the hall is like tide, surging and falling.

"Fourth, as Li Zhongcheng remonstrated, the people are tired, and the people's strength is empty...The last time I increased taxes, I was already depressed. How can I take food from the people this time?"

As soon as this statement was made, everyone in the palace had mixed reactions. Some were obviously a little puzzled, while others could not help but sneer in their hearts... This official said so nicely, in the end, he still had to use Xu Xianggong to borrow first and then send it. Son, and then the means for everyone to share the sons equally?

After walking around for a long time, in addition to saying a set of good things, it seemed that he was for the country and pity the people, but it was useless at all.

"Wang Xianggong, you will sort out today's Li Zhongcheng's memorial, and send it out to all the handsome officials; then, Lu Xianggong and Xu Xianggong, you two will prepare for the birth of children at once, but don't send it out until the end... …To this end of today, let me try my best to think of ideas.” Zhao Jiu continued to speak, but he turned around and went to the palace without stopping as soon as he finished speaking.

It can only be said that, as everyone thought, the real difficulties of gold and silver lay there. In the end, the Zhao official could only approve of the matter of giving birth, but only a little more to the handsome officials.

In the end, the officials left in such a hurry, it seemed to be evasive.

There was no word on the spot, everyone called to each other, in groups, and dispersed.

After all, this difficulty of the court is a headache, but it is only a minor illness. It is a kind of happiness trouble under the big victory. Not to mention that it is only a temporary difficulty for the overall situation, or for the finances. But now, as the New Year is approaching, Tokyo City is opening up after the big victory. While slowly repairing the bridge and filling the ditch, it gradually becomes lively.

Nothing can stop the New Year.

Today's matter is not just a few words on the New Year's Day table.

The others didn’t mention it, only that the attendant in the palace, Shi Yushi, went down to the court, first returned home, and sat behind closed doors for half a day. It was late in the evening to say hello to the old wife who had only recently entered Beijing, and then sent him away often. 'My very kind elders' Wang Shuzhan handed a post from Wang's mansion, saying that he wanted to see Wang Shuzhan's in-law Zhao Huangshu today, and then went out on a donkey alone.

However, this servant came out, but first went to find the lonely Yuying Futong Quduan in Tokyo. He saw Quduan promised to his face and rode out the iron elephant that is now well-known in East Asia. People one after another, only then went to Wang Shuzhan, the "very kind elder of my own family".

Wang Shuzhan's family is a big family in Shezhou.

After the situation in Tokyo stabilized, fleeing officials from the North and officials from poor backgrounds were both poor and white, and on the other hand, the wealth of the wealthy officials from the south, especially those from the south of the Huaihe River, was never less than two cents... and as a former official, the former celebrity, recently Wan Chengmao, who has fulfilled such a noble duty as a servant in the palace, is never willing to embezzle at will. If you want to eat and drink, and enjoy life, you will inevitably come here often.

It's a twist... This person is rarely seen in the temple to make troubles when he is in the Jinshi and the second place. Many people mistakenly think that he has changed his temper and won the holy favorite, so he is often drawn up deliberately, but this one is the only one who left the official. In front of my house, my mouth still smells bad, and my death does not change, which seems embarrassing.

For example, here Wang Shuzhan, he actually accused Sang and scolded Sang several times in person, saying that Wang Shuzhan was always selfish and only regarded as an official as an official. He also said that Wang Ruohai, his son, only regarded one of the people in Jingkang’s "Please Li "Book of Zhao's Descendants" is the basis for promotion, and has no other achievements, but what kind of book is it, it is only time to steal the fake books made by Qin Hui, Ma Shen, Zhang Shuye...

After several times, people like Wang Shuzhan didn't dare to provoke this person.

As for the Chinese New Year, this Wanzu Yuanzhong actually summoned this literary and martial artist Qu Da specially today. I don’t know what he was thinking about?

Sure enough, whether you can enter the door, whether the Wang family’s father and son, as well as the Wang family’s in-laws who have been specially invited here, are the Zhao Shi?? father and son. They are very happy to see Wan Tumao, and I will see Qu Da. , But their discoloration changed one after another, but these two families are stubborn, and it is not too big to drive people during the New Year, so they can only bite the bullet and open a banquet.

Everyone in Wang's Mansion, that is, Hu Hongxiu, who is basically considered to be living in Yue Zhang's house, remained calm... This is because Qu Duan said at most that he was talking about soldiers on paper, and he was not so embarrassed.

Everyone sat down, Da Zongzheng sat on the left and right with Mr. Wang, Wan Tuan and Qu Duan were on the left, Zhao Bufan, Wang Ruohai, and Hu Hongxiu's three in-laws and brothers of opposite **** were on the right, and there was no one directly below... It's a standard close family dinner, but the atmosphere is extraordinarily weird.

However, fortunately there are thousands of people, the servant of the palace, the servant of the palace, has a casual speech, right and left, first a toast to congratulate the court, and then wish the two elders present here, and talk about the future situation, and talk about a few juniors. In the future, the atmosphere of the banquet will gradually rise.

And after drinking three rounds and saving three or five games, Wan Cheng Yuanzhong suddenly talked about the minor issues at today’s xiaochao meeting, which attracted Zhao and Wang, who were valuable but not qualified to participate in the old politicians for a while. Listen attentively.

"It's difficult for officials!"

After only one word, Wan Hao set the tone first. "Today's theory, if it is spread out, people who don’t know will probably say that the official can only say good things, but it will be useless, and it will fall to let others make up for the deficit. But how can you and I know, the official It’s so miserable, the Yanfu Palace has not transferred any extra money and food, and the tributes from all over the place are also removed. Even the two noble concubines are decent, and they all rely on the help of the family... If it is to make up for the deficit, the official has already gone to poverty by himself. Made it up."

Hearing these words, before Zhao Wanghu and others had time to sigh, Qu Duan frowned again: "Brother Yuan Zhong, I can understand you for the injustice of the officials, but how can the theory of the palace be brought here? How many of these people must be qualified to participate in important military affairs? If the incident spreads because Jiaozi causes a disturbance, isn't it your fault?"

Not to mention a few young people, Zhao Huangshu and Wang Shuzhan, the respected relatives, were flushed for a while, but it was really difficult to refute.

"Qu Da, this is how you treat the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Others were afraid of Qu Duan. How could Wan Tuan be afraid, he immediately raised his face and refuted it again. "There must be Uncle Zhao Huang here. This is the national father and the important minister of the clan. He should have known the whole story, and such a moral role model like Uncle Wang knows that he will also think about the country. How can he spread it privately?"

"Knowing people, knowing the face and not knowing the heart, saying that no one knows to send a child, take the opportunity to borrow money, and be unkind for wealth?" Qu Duan blurted out.

But with this one word, he lowered his head to drink and ate food, and stopped talking. Many people at the table wanted to have a seizure, and they didn’t know if it should happen.

In retrospect, it was Zhao Shi?? Zhao Huangshu was respected and more tolerant, he saw him grinning bitterly, and said on the spot: "The officials are miserable, and some are even more cruel to themselves. The old man knows it. But he wants the old man. In other words, this 300,000 yuan of money is only a small matter after all, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation... But the heroic and heroic figure of the official has always come from a decision. If I want to come, there is no need for me as an old official to blend in... Under the new year, and It's self-entertainment."

Uncle Wang nodded slightly, and wanted to make peace.

But at this moment, Qu Duanfu raised his head coldly and said, "As a clan, you are supported by the people, even if the government doesn't use you, so you don't want to serve the country? The king is still serving the country. In the night clothes, the soldiers in front of the battle are still going to pay for the salary, but your clan is here to take the people's anointing for the banquet! The so-called Ministry of Industry has said that there are frozen bones in Zhumen's stinky roads, and it is you. , And you say it as if you have been wronged. Are you wronged? What is the official? What are those of us who were born and died for the country?"

Don't talk about the table full of people, even the servants who are waiting next to him have long been dumbfounded, holding a hot towel in there. Uncle Zhao Huang even felt his chest pounding and his throat tightened from the time he was ‘Minzhi Min Gao’, but he didn’t know what words to use when he wanted to scold him, and he didn’t know where to refute when he wanted to refute, so that his face flushed.

On the other side, Zhao Huangshu's eldest son, Zhao Bufan, saw that his father was humiliated, but he was the first to react, and then got up angrily, using his finger to scold him.

But Qu Duan was still not afraid. Before the other party could speak, he just stared at the young clan who stood up and stared at the opposite side again: "What are you doing here to pretend?! I tell you, fortunately, you don’t have a weapon in your hand, otherwise it’s already I'm a dead person...I just lifted the table to throw you down, and then I walked over to look for the candlestick next to you, and stuck it in my throat, so that your father would send a white-haired person to a black-haired person...who Give you the guts of the clan who knows to drink and eat meat, dare to be ruthless in front of me like a hundred warriors?"

Zhao Bufan had to make another statement. Wang Shuzhan had already called his son Wang Ruohai and son-in-law Hu Hongxiu to come forward and hold them together, plus a few servants, to drag the big son-in-law out anyway.

Seeing Zhao Bufan being dragged out, Wang Shuzhan turned his head back and comforted Zhao Huangshu, and drove away the remaining two maids. Then he turned his head and looked at Wan Mama who hadn't said a word for a long time, but just bowed his head and gnawed his chicken feet. , The words are quite complaining: "Yuan Zhong, what are your thoughts on tonight... We have a relationship like a nephew and an uncle, why not speak out?"

Hearing this, Wan Tong put down his chicken feet, calmly took the hot towel that the servant put down from the table and wiped his hand. Then he laughed: "He who knows me, too, Uncle Wang! Uncle Wang, you have broken the alchemist. The future has always been just an idle official. Have you ever thought about regaining the holy family and getting a good life and then taking a future to serve the country? It is Uncle Zhao Huang. After listening to Qu Da's words today, did he ever want to try his best in times of chaos? Don't make a ridiculous wine bag and rice bag to contribute to the country?"

"What's your plan?" Wang Shuzhan was moved for a while.

But Qu Duan didn't even let it go: "I know that you are asking me to have a bad heart today... Others say you are a loyal character, but I know you are a villain."

What about the bad heart, what about the villain?

Wan Tongmao sneered in his heart, but his face was awe-inspiring: "Qu Da, I must be worried about the country!"

Qu Duan sneered, but he didn't bother to care about this person, but the old emperor uncle heard this and was a little serious.

And Wan Chengmao didn’t care, he just said something slowly: “Actually, after hearing the figure of 300,000 Guans in the temple today, the officials asked if they could raise funds... At that time, Li Zhongcheng only thought that the officials wanted Adding miscellaneous taxes, so I eagerly advise, but I have been following the imperial front for a long time, but know that the official intention is definitely not to levy taxes on the people."

Although Qu Duan was too temperamental, but after all he was'capable of literary and military skills', so his heart moved slightly: "You mean, the officials are looking for big wealthy families to raise money... But if so, why hasn't it been mentioned?"

Can why? Of course, because the officials knew in their hearts that these people would never be ‘raised’ easily! If there is no visible benefit, who wants to be raised for no reason?

Unless the Zhao official's family stayed behind and borrowed.

Wan Tongmao's heart became more sneered, and his expression became more awe-inspiring: "That's because in Jingkang, the court searched the city for compensation, and the officials did not want the scholars to panic about it..."

Wang Shuzhan was already tempted, but he stopped talking.

"However, the officials are too cautious!" Wan Chenmao continued to speak awe-inspiringly. "At that time, it was five million taels of gold and five thousand five taels of silver, but today it is only 300,000 pennies; and at that time, the country was poor and it was the money for the country to subdue, but now it is only a short period of time. I said that among the wealthy and wealthy families returning from the north of the city, there are now forty or fifty famous wealthy families. There are also some officials who are born in the south of the Huaihe River and have a wealth of family background. This group of people gather together, how can they have thirty? Wan Guan! Not to mention, since the wealthy family who dare to spend the New Year in Beijing right now, who is not loyal to the country and dedicated to the country? Who wouldn't want to pay this thousands of money? Uncle Wang..."

"I naturally wish!" Wang Shuzhan blurted out, who had not sat down. "During the Mid-Autumn Festival, I asked my family to bring 10,000 yuan from Huainan specifically for expenses. Later, the military administration closed the city so that it didn't move... it just happened to be served to the officials!"

That's stupid!

Wan Yumao looked down on this recognized uncle more and more in his heart, but he did slap his palms and praised him: "My uncle's splendid activity can be called the national worries. But in my opinion, there is still something lacking..."

Uncle Wang was startled slightly, and then listened.

"The first one, whether it is a donation or a loan, cannot be a public loan, but a private loan, at least pretending to be a private loan, otherwise it will embarrass the poor colleagues and embarrass the official." Wan Yumao sternly said, at this time, it was Qu Duan and Zhao Huangshu who both listened to their ears. "Secondly, the imperial court is only unable to open up the turnover for a while, and it does not really need someone to contribute. The little nephew means that he can borrow or borrow, unless it is absolutely necessary, and then donate it."

Wang Shuzhan was puzzled for a while: "How to borrow or not to offer?"

"Because there are very few people like my uncle who loves the country and the emperor sincerely, and the people are partial. Who wants to easily get the money in his hands?" Wan Tsuma smiled.

Wang Shuzhan was deeply moved, and he bent forward directly across the table to face each other: "My nephew means that instead of offering 10,000 tongs and 20,000 tongs, it is better to be a middle-aged person and guarantee the official family to seven or eight big households and get one hundred and eighty. Wan's loan can relieve the officials' worries even more?"

At this moment, if Zhao Huangshu realized something, Qu Duan also glanced at Taichang and Zhao Huangshu beside him.

"But it's still not right." Wang Shuzhan was excited, but he noticed something was wrong. "The key is how to bring this matter up to the officials? In any case, the officials shouldn't borrow words from the officials?"

"Uncle emperor can borrow!" Wan Tsuma didn't change his face, just raised his hand to the other side's side.

Wang Shuzhan finally woke up and immediately fell into his seat, but couldn't help but clap his hands excitedly: "No wonder my nephew asked me to invite my in-laws! This business is done!"

"No wonder Wanzu Yushi called me." Qu Duan finally sneered. "But I'm afraid that Uncle Zhao is an uninteresting person, so he used me to scare people?"

Wan Tongmao smiled without saying a word.

And Zhao Shi?? Zhao Huangshu also sighed: "For the fact that you all regard the old man as a national asshole, the old man is willing to do his best for the country."

Wan Yumao finally made plans and plans for himself: "If this is the case, according to my plan, my uncle will leave tomorrow and personally go to the surrounding big wealthy families. He only said that he lacks money and wants to borrow money from others. How much is borrowed, it only takes a hundred thousand, which is enough to make the officials look at you. If anyone is suspicious, or has eyesight, why not ask him to come over, let him and me, Zhao Huangshu, and Qu. Drink a glass of water and wine in person like this tonight?"

Wang Shuzhan didn't talk, just picked up the wine glass, drank it, and shouted again and again, letting the servants serve good wine and food, and even let his son-in-law come in, making a big loss to others.

Have fun at a dinner party and go away without mentioning it.

The next day, there was no court discussion. At this time, there was no “routine book” rule in previous years, and there was no call in the palace. As an imperial historian, Wan Tatsuo got up without any haste, and went to search for a song of idlers. Big, one riding an iron elephant, one riding a donkey, came to Wang's Mansion, ready to take command, it is bound to gain a good credit and show a competence in front of the official family.

When he arrived at Wang's Mansion, Wang Shuzhan really couldn't wait, and went out early to borrow money, and Zhao Huangshu also came to sit down as scheduled, and Wan Tongmao was even more proud.

However, after waiting for an hour, before noon arrived, they returned in a hurry before that time, but they turned pale and looked panic, which caused all three people in the upper end of the hall to be surprised.

Without waiting for the three to speak, Wang Shuzhan tremblingly took out two pieces of paper from his arms.

Wan Hao grabbed it and took a look in the hall, but only sighed and slapped the piece of paper on the table.

Uncle Zhao Huang and Qu Duan hurriedly went to see them together, but they were all speechless.

It turned out that these were two five thousand IOUs. The words in the front were generally the same, and the signatures and deposits were generally the same... It was the four characters of Cangzhou Zhao Jiu, and a familiar seal was also stamped.

Even Qu Duan has sharp eyes, and even the handwriting of the previous standard can be seen at a glance that it is from the Kobayashi scholar.

"The two families of Wu Guojiu and Pan Guojiu gathered together wealthy businessmen and wealthy households last night to sell this thing. Five thousand and one piece, each with a maximum limit of 50. The young man can sell it at the original price. Each family is limited to two. It also brings three percent interest." Uncle Wang Zhan wanted to cry without tears. "I saw it from the Han family of Meihua, so I went to Pan Guojiu's house and walked for a while~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but he didn’t want to sell me, so I asked for one after another. I went to Uncle Wu’s house and asked for a copy... a good nephew, you have a fairy idea, trying to figure out the interests of the official family, but you shouldn’t be here for half a day!"

Wan Chengmao was chattering for a while, and it was rare to blurt out: "I really don't know. The situation is so good now, but it's just a little problem, but the official is still so cruel? It's scary."

But Qu Duan calmed down at this time, but couldn’t help holding an IOU and ridiculed on the spot: “The official would rather put his face on his face and ask for a loan directly, rather than both of you. The two relatives held a banquet together, and no one Please come over, you can see what you are in the eyes of the officials and the rich in Tokyo..."

Wang Shuzhan gritted his teeth for a while, if he didn't know he couldn't beat the opponent's two or three punches, he wished to kill this ‘can literary and military’ on the spot!
