Chapter 328
Li Qingzhao finished the pot of wine and invited Zhao Ning to come over and beat the horse.
"Can Mr. Zhao know how to beat a horse?"
Zhao Ning said: "I don't know much, but I can learn."
When everyone heard that this official Zhao didn't know how to play, but wanted to play, they immediately invited him over.
Zhao Ning also has two major hobbies: drinking and playing cards.
When I was in college in my previous life, for example, my living expenses were almost running out, so I would find a few friends to play cards together.
After playing cards, you have money in your hand, and you can eat and drink when you need it.
The circle will give you a nickname "Leek Harvester".
Every time those people played cards with him, they would regret it: they would never play cards with Zhao Ning again.
After waiting for a while, he said boldly again: Go! Find Zhao Ning for revenge!
Zhao Ning didn't know how to beat horses, a game played by people in the Song Dynasty, and neither did the original owner of his body, Zhao Huan.
However, after Zhao Ning learned it once, he got started immediately.
Li Qingzhao soon discovered that Zhao Guanren was not only a good lyricist, but also a good horseman.
The others were in agony at being reaped by Li Qingzhao, but when they saw Zhao Ning coming up, they thought he was a newbie and could bully them.
After playing a few games, I realized something was wrong.
Li Qingzhao was already a tiger, killing everyone, but Zhao Ning turned out to be a wolf. After entering, the originally bloody situation became even more tragic.
Li Qingzhao smiled and said, "Guan Zhao is very resourceful."
"Each other."
"Who did Zhao Guanren learn from?"
Zhao Ning: Me? My master’s name is People’s Publishing House!
"I don't have much talent, I just make random guesses."
When the people around him heard this, they all felt angry and itched their teeth.
The happy time passed quickly. After the fun was over, Zhao Ning suddenly realized that he came here for business.
Then he and Qian Jinshu continued to talk about business.
It wasn't until late at night that everyone dispersed.
Zhao Ning and Qian Jinshu have discussed the issue of coastal salt production in depth.
From mobilizing manpower, setting up a trading company, to collecting raw materials, production processes, management, transportation, etc., almost every detail was discussed.
Finally, Qian Jinshu sent Zhao Ning out.
Qian Jinshu reminded: "Official Zhao, today you have offended Zhang Wencai and the others. You must be more careful in the future. His father and uncle have high official positions in the court."
"Don't worry, they can't do anything to me."
"You still have to be more careful."
Qian Jinshu knew that Zhao Ning knew Wang Taiwei, and Zhao Ning must have connections in the court, but Zhang Wencai was not an ordinary person after all.
"Xixia now mainly sells green and white salt in the northwest area, and we have received special approval from the court to make salt. If we want to do business in the northwest in the future, we must build some connections in the northwest. Zhang Wencai's uncle is the envoy of Yanyan Road.
If we offend him, we may encounter a lot of trouble when doing salt business in the northwest in the future."
"But you don't have to worry about these things. I will send someone to calm Zhang Wencai's mood."
I have to say that Qian Jinshu is very reliable in her work.
Qian Jinshu has an obvious characteristic. She is a thoughtful and cautious person.
Zhao Ning is different. Zhao Ning is very good at macro-control on the big picture, but he is still weak on many details.
Even with a backer like Wang Zonglio, not everything can be accomplished smoothly.
There are people above who can help you get the key things done, but they can't help you get everything done in one go.
The opponent only needs to send some little shrimps below to block the key execution points in some details, and it will be enough to cause you pain for a while.
Anyone who has done business knows this.
Letting the Qian family do the salt production on Liangzhe Road is a big opportunity for the Qian family. If it is done well, it may become the first family in the southeast in the future. If it is not done well, it will have to be replaced.
The opportunity will not discuss the difficulty with you. If you don't accept it, many people will be waiting in line.
Zhao Ning said: "Zhang Wencai is just a small person, and the people behind him don't dare to change things. Just do your best."
After saying that, Zhao Ning was about to leave. Suddenly he remembered something and said: "Remember to think carefully about the book I gave you called "Business Society" and read it thoroughly. Its potential is huge."
"Okay." Seeing that Zhao Ning seemed drunk, Qian Jinshu was a little worried, "How about I take you back?"
"No need, I brought so many people here." Zhao Ning smiled proudly, showing his white teeth, "Do you still need a helpless little lady like you to send me off? Go back quickly."
After saying that, Zhao Ning got on the carriage.
After leaving Qian's house, we walked all the way towards the inner city.
At this time, although it was late at night, the city of Tokyo was still brightly lit.
People in the Song Dynasty liked nightlife very much. The literati and poets took advantage of the night to release the excitement hidden during the day and spend as much as they wanted on the fragrant, smooth and juicy food.
After walking for some distance, it suddenly stopped.
"Where are Mr. Zhao going?"
A familiar voice came.
Zhao Ning opened the curtain and saw Zhang Wencai and others.
At this time, Zhang Wencai had gathered a group of people somewhere, and each of these people looked fierce.
Obviously, Zhang Wen was here to take revenge.
However, the people Zhang Wencai led were not enough to fill the gap between the teeth of Jing Chao and the other Imperial Guards.
"What is Zhang Yanei doing?"
Zhang Wencai looked gloomy: "Nothing else, I just want to see Zhao Guanren's lyrics well done. I would like to invite Zhao Guanren to go back and narrate it."
"What if I don't agree?"
"I'm afraid it's not up to Mr. Zhao."
"As the son of a court official, does Zhang Yanei know that blocking roads in Tokyo and robbing people is a violation of court law?"
Zhang Wencai burst out laughing: "Are you talking to me about court laws?"
When he smiled like this, the people around him also laughed, as if they were laughing at Zhao Ning's ignorance.
Zhao Ning said: "So, you want to take action?"
Zhang Wencai said: "If you don't cooperate, I will have to help them!"
At this time, a man ran over quickly and said in Zhang Wencai's ear: "We have found the yamen, at the gate of the Prime Minister's Kingdom."
Zhang Wencai was stunned for a moment and said: "Then why are you still standing there? Go and arrest people!"
Zhang Wencai turned around and left.
Zhou Shu said: "Zhang Yanei, just let them handle the arrest. We can't let this person named Zhao go tonight."
"No! My uncle wrote to me to explain this. If something goes wrong, my chance to graduate from Tokyo University and enter the martial arts hall next year will be gone!"
Zhang Wencai said to Zhao Ning's carriage: "Guan Zhao, I remember what happened tonight. We are not over yet. We will see!"
After saying that, Zhang Wencai and others hurriedly left.
Zhao Ning was too lazy to meet him and was ready to go back to the palace and fall asleep.
Let's leave the matter of being stopped tonight to Gao Qiu tomorrow.
This is not far from Daxiangguo Temple.
Daxiangguo Temple is a very lively market during the day, but it is quite cold in the middle of the night.
Not long after, Zhao Ning suddenly heard screams coming from the direction of the Prime Minister.
Several government officials who were patrolling at night rushed to hear the news.
It should be said that the public security in Tokyo is very good, and there are many government officials in the city.
These yamen were local soldiers and local warriors, which was also a characteristic of the Song Dynasty.
Officials and Turkish troops formed an executive force, cooperating with officials to strengthen control over grassroots society.
From this point of view, the Song Dynasty made progress compared with the Tang Dynasty. At least the court's control over grassroots society was strengthened.
"We are the Yamen of Kaifeng Prefecture. How dare you beat people here!"
