Chapter 254

A few years ago, Huaixi had never experienced stability. Some officials from Huaixi to the capital were jumping left and right.

They all impeached officials from the Ministry of Revenue and the Provincial Yuan, at least from a moral perspective, and paid their respects to all eighteen generations of their ancestors.

The hats of treacherous ministers and deceitful officials flew one by one on the heads of the officials sent there.

This is a normal reaction when the Ministry of Revenue comes to inspect fields and tax revenue and is exposed.

Just like when some boys want to check the cell phone of their cheating girlfriend, the girlfriend immediately jumps up and scolds him for being immoral and not trusting him.

Zhao Ning originally planned to leave here. After all, Li Qing came to see Qian Jinshu, not him.

Moreover, Li Qing also made it clear that he was here to pursue Qian Jinshu, and it would be disgusting for him to stay here as a light bulb.

But as soon as Li Qing reported Weng Yanguo's name, the Zhao Guan family immediately didn't want to leave.

Qian Jinshu said: "Thank you to Mr. Li for your kindness. I have enough food for the time being."

Huaixi is one of the grain-producing bases, but the two Zhejiang provinces also produce a lot of grain. Under the rule of the ancestors of the Qian family, Guangxing fertile land has achieved considerable development.

Li Qing added: "What about the soap? This thing will definitely make a lot of money in the future. If our two families join forces, Hangzhou and Huaixi will not be a problem."

Hangzhou is in the southeast, and Huainan West Road is a line between Gyeonggi and Hangzhou.

On this line, the canal flows of the Great Song Dynasty and ordinary rivers were densely packed into a network.

Developed river transportation was the basic condition for the development of commerce in the Song Dynasty.

Li Qing made a good plan. As long as he connected from Hangzhou to Huaixi and then to Tokyo, the richest place in the Song Dynasty would be his market.

Soap will only become cheaper and cheaper, as all smart businessmen know.

Its existence will be like clothing in the future. Some people even get used to it and feel as uncomfortable if they don't use it as if they don't add salt to their meals.

It will surely gradually become a necessity of life.

It is precisely the necessities of life that are the most profitable.

You see, in ancient times, salt and iron were monopolized by the imperial court because of its large consumption base.

There were 100 million people in the entire Song Dynasty. Each person spent 20 Wen on soap every year, which was 2 billion Wen.

Qian Jinshu smiled politely. Zhao Ning, who was about to speak but had been silent, suddenly interrupted and said, "Mr. Li, I don't understand something, and I would like to ask you a question."

Li Qing's arrogant head slowly turned around, with a smile hanging on the corner of his mouth. It was the kind of "I'm so awesome" smile. His eyes when he looked at Zhao Ning were full of disdain.

He smiled contemptuously at Zhao Ning, and after a while, he faintly uttered two words: "Say."

It's as if the superior person, who is superior, gives the inferior person a chance to speak.

Zhao Ning was not angry either, and said with a smile on his face: "I heard that something happened in Huaixi recently."

As soon as he said these words, Li Qing was startled for a moment, then shook his head and laughed, as if he was laughing at Zhao Ning for being a fool.

Li Qing said: "What happens in Huaixi is not something you can ask."

Zhao Ning continued: "I'm just curious, and I hope Brother Li will give you some advice!"

Seeing Zhao Ning's low profile, Li Qingcai said coldly: "Nothing will happen."

"Why, I heard that there was a turmoil, and it was related to last summer's tax. I heard that some people were hiding fertile land!" Zhao Ning looked mysterious and mysterious, "To be honest, I also want to go to Huaixi.

I want to buy some fertile land, and I also have some spare money. I want to do some business, but there is no way."

Qian Jinshu on the other hand was a little surprised. What's going on? Official Zhao, aren't you very familiar with Wang Taiwei? If you want to do business in Huaixi, do you need to find Li Qing?

Seeing Zhao Ning deliberately pretending to be like a little white rabbit here, Qian Jinshu felt funny in her heart. Although she didn't know Zhao Ning's purpose, she didn't reveal it and just drank tea quietly.

Since Zhao Guanren had helped him block this Li Qing, it was inconvenient to say more.

Li Qing saw Zhao Ning like this and asked, "Do you want to buy a field?"

"right."

"How much to buy?"

Zhao Ning stretched out a finger.

"One hundred acres?" Li Qing said disdainfully.

Zhao Ning shook his head.

"A thousand acres?"

Zhao Ning shook his head again.

"Ten thousand acres?"

“One hundred thousand acres first!”

"Hahaha, one hundred thousand acres?" Li Qing looked at Zhao Ning as if he were crazy, "Do you know how much one hundred thousand acres cost?"

"I can give you 300,000 yuan."

Zhao Guan's family, which only has 10,000 yuan in the treasury, is sitting here and speaking categorically.

Li Qing's eyes immediately narrowed, and when he looked at Zhao Ning, his eyes were completely different: "Are you serious?"

"Absolutely true!"

Only then did Li Qing's eyes fall on Qian Jinshu, as if he was asking her who this official from Zhao was.

Qian Jinshu said: "Guan Zhao is a rich man in the capital."

"What is your surname, Officer Zhao?"

"I'm Zhao Ning."

"But I've never heard of it." Li Qing was confused, but he believed Qian Jinshu's words.

After all, the Qian brothers and sisters are very popular people in the capital now. They can establish a relationship with Taiwei Wang, who is in charge of business.

"Why did Mr. Zhao suddenly want to buy so many fields?"

"I'll tell you the truth." Zhao Ning's mind started working quickly and he began to organize his words, "I got news that the imperial court is going to expand the construction of military towns on the northern front and needs more food. I also heard that the officials are preparing to mobilize more food to Hedong.

Road, Hebei Road disaster relief."

"The imperial court's demand for grain will be very large in the next ten years." Zhao Ning said matter-of-factly, "I want to buy some fields for grain trading, which has something to do with the above."

Li Qing's eyes changed again, and he suddenly became more curious about Zhao Ning's identity: "May I ask what Guanren Zhao's relationship is above?"

"My friend hooked up with him, and he has something to do with Wang Zongli and Wang Taiwei."

Li Qing was suddenly shocked and looked at Qian Jinshu again.

Qian Jinshu said: "We know Taiwei Wang because he was introduced by Officer Zhao."

The expression on Li Qing's face quickly changed, and his attitude turned 180 degrees: "I was offended just now, please don't mind, Mr. Zhao."

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter."

"Official Zhao wants to buy a field. That's okay. I have acquaintances in Huaixi. But the land in Huaixi is only three acres per acre..." Li Qing said deliberately hesitantly.

"It doesn't matter, I'll give you a price."

"Three passes are possible, but some transaction fees may be required."

Zhao Ning immediately understood that it was just a middleman who wanted to get money.

"It's easy to say, it's not a problem." Zhao Ning continued, "But I also have doubts."

"Guan Zhao just said it doesn't matter."

"I heard that the imperial court is implementing a new policy. Will this new policy fall on Huaixi? If it falls on Huaixi, I will suffer a big loss. This tax..."

"Hahaha, Mr. Zhao can be rest assured that the New Deal will never fall to Huaixi, and even if it does, Mr. Zhao doesn't need to be nervous."

"Why?"

"I can guarantee that your 100,000 acres are not in the government's land books, and the taxes will not be collected in your name!"

Zhao Ning immediately became excited: "Seriously?"

He was really excited, not just pretending.

"Absolutely true!"

"this……"

"Don't worry, as long as you buy it, I will go and say hello wherever you go."

Zhao Ning was doubtful, so Li Qing said: "My uncle is the transfer envoy to Huaixi. Why are you worried about this? Everything will be taken care of for you."

"That……"

"Otherwise, I will write a letter to Huaixi for Mr. Zhao, and Mr. Zhao will send someone to Huaixi to contact a local official, and he will make arrangements."

Zhao Ning became even more excited.
