Chapter 404 Zhao Guan's Oceanic Dream
"Hey, Jinshu, you don't know how powerful the Cai family is."
"I do not want to know."
"Just listen to my brother, Cai Cai is the son-in-law of Feng Jing. The Feng family is a famous family, and the Feng family also has a marriage relationship with a wealthy family."
He briefly mentioned the three prime ministers of the Song Dynasty.
Cai Mao is the current ruler, and Feng Jing is the prime minister of the Shenzong Dynasty. The rich family he is talking about is the Fu Bi family, and Fu Bi is also a famous prime minister of the Song Dynasty.
The Qingli Reform of the Renzong Dynasty was initiated by Fu Bi and Fan Zhongyan.
Fu Bi is Feng Jing’s father-in-law.
Although they have passed away, their family has continued to support them and grown stronger over the years, with members of the family serving as officials in the court and local governments.
For example, Fu Bi was from Luoyang, and the influence of wealthy families in Luoyang cannot be ignored.
Luoyang was the favorite place for officials of the Song Dynasty to live after they retired. The level of officialdom there was as responsible as Tokyo.
Qian Yuqing said: "Don't you understand those things about the officialdom? They are all married to each other, and ordinary people cannot get in. We are fortunate to have an in-law relationship with the Cai family, which will definitely bring countless benefits to our future."
"Isn't it enough for Taiwei Wang to take care of us?"
"Not enough." Qian Yuqing said, "We are not related to Taiwei Wang. If our family is in trouble one day, do you think Taiwei Wang will protect us?"
"How can we encounter trouble if we obey the law?"
Qian Yuqing sighed and said, "You know too little about the officialdom. I have been working in the officialdom for the past two years, and my biggest experience is only four words."
"Which four words?"
"We are forced to have no choice." Qian Yuqing said it in a very solemn tone, "And the bigger the business, the more interests involved, the more we are forced to have no choice. Many things are not up to us."
He looked at his sister and said earnestly: "You are a very smart girl. You know a lot about many things. You even have your own unique insights. You always see things much more profoundly than others. However, things in the world are always difficult.
It's sinister. People in the officialdom will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Many of the deals our brother and sister have done in the past two years are related to the imperial court. It's impossible for us to escape, so we can only find a more reliable backer."
"Although we are from the Southeast Qian clan, we are a side branch. Until now, Qian Chen, the Duke of Rongguo, has not even looked at us. We can only seek refuge on our own. Do you understand what I am saying?"
Qian Jinshu lowered her brows, like a child who had been greatly wronged: "So you want to sacrifice me?"
"I'm not sacrificing you, I'm trying to find a good home. If we have problems in the future, I will be responsible. If you are the granddaughter-in-law of Cai Cai, who would dare to touch you?"
"But I just want to marry Mr. Zhao."
"You're not familiar with him, and you don't understand him. Your current mood is just impulsive. You won't have this impulse after a while." Qian Yuqing tried to keep his tone calm, "I'll tell you again.
As a matter of fact, in the first half of this year, few officials from the Ministry of Punishment dared to interrogate the Shaanxi pension case involving Luoyang. Do you know why?"
"Why?"
"Because the rich family, the Feng family, were all in Luoyang, and even Sima Junshi's family later went to Luoyang. Many retired officials in the court wanted to go to Luoyang in the future."
"But Mr. Zhao has been of great help to us, have you forgotten?" Qian Jinshu asked.
"I will thank Mr. Zhao. If necessary, I can use all my family property to repay him, but this does not prevent me from marrying you to the Cai family."
After Zhao Ning returned to the palace, she had already begun to think about what kind of work she would arrange for Miss Qian in the future.
Husband and wife are united in their hearts and their hearts are broken!
At present, Zhao Ning's finances are still very difficult.
The so-called New Deal, especially the New Agricultural Deal, is more of a rectification of the past harsh policies. It aims to reduce the burden on the people, but it will also reduce the revenue of the state treasury.
Then you have to make more money elsewhere.
Zhao Ning had strategic plans for southeastern commerce, Japanese trade, and Southeast Asian trade.
It's just that his energy is really limited. If someone like Qian Jinshu, who has really come up from the bottom of business, helps him, he can do many things with half the effort.
There are even arms issues involved.
To give the simplest example, consider the sugar cane trade in Nanyang, Guangdong, and Fujian.
Although sugar cane is very common, in ancient times, it was the raw material for refining sugar.
If sugar is produced in large quantities, it can help the army.
Just think about it, one day after the Xixia is defeated and the Song Dynasty regains the Hexi Corridor, it will attack the Uighurs in Gaochang, or directly attack Huining Prefecture. On a long-distance expedition, the soldiers will have candy cubes on them, which will be a huge help to supplement their physical fitness.
In this era, sugar is actually still a luxury product.
This is just an example.
Talent is so important to Zhao Ning, and the Qian brothers and sisters are talents in this field.
The business network and team in the hands of the Qian brothers and sisters are of great help to Zhao Ning.
It's not useless to count on some bureaucrats for some things, but it's just too little time.
If necessary, just get married!
You have to get married even if you don’t want to marry!
Even those who come hard must come!
The sky gradually darkened, and Qin Hui delivered the latest report.
"Official officials, those Luoyang officials who were not tried have all been tried, and they are all guilty."
Qin Hui submitted a summary, showing a total of 1,008 officials involved.
Qin Hui continued: "According to the law, they should be punished. Please, Your Majesty, execute these people to set the course of the government."
Zhao Ning said calmly: "It's definitely not possible to kill so many people in one go."
"Then we will kill them in batches." Qin Hui's tone was a little cold, "Not killing is not enough to deter the world."
Qin Hui actually knew the crude idea of Zhao Guan's family, which was to send them directly to report to the Lord of Hell.
But killing so many officials at once would indeed cause a huge shock.
So Qin Hui paid attention to it very considerately, and continued: "The time can be extended a little longer, and we can kill them in batches."
Qin Hui just said: If you kill the emperor, the salary expenses of the imperial court can be reduced.
Zhao Ning pretended to be thoughtful and said, "I'll leave this matter to you. Once it's done, you can go into the political hall."
Qin Hui was overjoyed: "I will definitely live up to your majesty's great trust!"
After Qin Hui left, Zhao Ning had already begun to write the next strategic plan.
Including Hangzhou Shipping Department, trade with Japan, Korea, Jiaozhi and Nanyang.
He just wrote based on some of his own ideas. After finishing writing, he was going to discuss it with Qian Jinshu. If there were no problems, he could start doing many things directly.
At this time, Qian Jinshu left Qian's house and suddenly came to the door of Wang Zongliu's house.
"My little girl Qian Jinshu, I have something important to see Wang Taiwei."
Fortunately, Wang Zonglio's servant met her.
Wang Zonglio was drinking and playing with girls. When he heard that Qian Jinshu was coming, he was a little surprised: "Why is she here?"
He thought for a moment and said, "Please come in."
Wang Zongliu changed his clothes and looked very virtuous, fearing that if he lost his composure in front of Qian Jinshu, the matter would spread to the ears of Zhao Guan's family.
"Why did Madam Qian come to see me so late?"
