Wei Zheng told the reason for the matter. Everyone in Chang'an City knew that braised pork was cheap and filling, and tasted good.
But the price for Sun Fujia from Chang'an City to Luoyang is different.
Zhang Yang sighed, "It turns out that Sun Shaoqing also lives a frugal life."
Wei Zheng smiled and said: "If it hadn't been for this, I wouldn't have known that Luoyang's braised pork has a different price."
"This is all based on local conditions. Zheng Gongsou doesn't know that the price of braised pork is related to local prices."
Zhang Yang wanted to explain something more, but Mr. Zheng had already left quickly.
There is one more impeachment for nothing, which makes people feel even more unhappy.
With an unpleasant mood, Zhang Yang quickly walked out of the Zhuque Gate.
Li Zhi's memorial was delivered to Li Shimin. He glanced at his son and sighed: "Yan Liben and his people still have to rebuild the river embankment. It has not been completed so quickly. His results can be seen in half a month at the earliest.
"
"My son, I understand."
Li Shimin continued to look at the memorial in his hand, thinking about the word tariff. If goods outside the customs want to flow into the central part of the customs, tariffs will be charged based on the total amount of goods carried.
Heavy taxes are imposed on wine and the like to prevent wine sold outside the customs from flowing back to the central part of the customs.
Li Shimin calculated the cost of brewing wine. The wine produced in Guanzhong was sold outside the customs. If the wine from outside the customs wanted to come in, he would have to pay a huge tax.
This is equivalent to adding a lock to the goods transaction.
You can make a profit by selling the wine in Guanzhong. If you come back with the sold wine, you will make a second profit.
This kind of deal is really a good deal.
Li Shimin looked at the clothes he was wearing. He was wearing so many pieces. It had been many days since the emperor had made new clothes.
Who can I talk to about my sadness in my heart?
He closed the memorial again and said in a low voice: "Zhinu, send this memorial to the people in the central province to discuss giving me a result as soon as possible."
"Here!"
"Wait a minute." Li Shimin called to the young slave who was about to leave, "You have some skills to follow Zhang Yang. You can learn as much as you can."
"Why did my father say this to his son?"
Li Zhi raised his head slightly and saw that his father's face turned dark again. He hurriedly left without waiting for a reply.
After the rain, the dark clouds dispersed, and sunlight fell from the window of Ganlu Hall. Li Shimin walked slowly and looked up at the sky, "God, you are really blind."
Why did this kind of ability happen to fall into the hands of such a person?
As long as he can be respectful and loyal to me and the Tang Dynasty, I will not embarrass him.
It rained yesterday, and the puddles on the ground turned into ice this morning.
In the early morning, Chang'an City was still deserted, so Zhang Yang arrived at the Imperial City. The Imperial City was quiet at this moment, as some officials were busy here before.
At this moment, the doors of all official residences are closed.
Zhang Yang walked to the Shangshu Province, took out the key and opened the lock, opened the door and stepped inside.
The children tidied them up very well. Today they started to take a bath in the morning, and they did not come early in the morning.
The children have been busy these days, so they deserve a few days of rest.
A pile of memorials on the table also stated that there were many unfinished things.
Zhang Yang selected the memorials, took out a few more important ones and put them into the package.
I looked carefully to see if there was anything left behind in the main hall, and then looked at the house model placed on the sand table.
This is all the hard work of the children these days, and the tall tower built by Li Zhi is a little skewed, and it has the flavor of a leaning tower.
Zhang Yang looked at it for a while, with the baggage on his shoulders and a pile of memorials, he closed the door, turned around and walked out of Shangshu Province.
Everyone went to take a rest, but now they still have many things to do.
Take these memorials home and continue working overtime.
Stepping out of the Suzaku Gate, I saw Li Daoyan still guarding the gate. I looked carefully and saw that there were fewer guards on the imperial city than before.
The imperial city, which used to be lively and busy, now seems quiet.
Zhang Yang stepped forward and greeted: "Brother Daoyan, you have already stopped bathing. Are you still here to guard me?"
Li Daoyan held the horizontal sword at his waist and said, "Do your duty faithfully."
"I really admire you."
"It's okay to be the last general. Su Dingfang is still busy with Zuo Wuwei. He said that he was leading the army guards to start running the army. General Yuchi Gong asked him to also formulate strategies for running the army."
Zhang Yang smiled and said: "If you continue to ask for money like this... the Shangshu Province will not be far from bankruptcy."
At Chen time, pedestrians began to appear on Zhuque Street, and the originally empty street began to come to life.
Li Daoyan leaned against the wall of the imperial city and yawned, relaxing his limbs lazily. "Just like before, I followed my father at home and attacked for thirty miles overnight to pacify the world. I felt that I was invincible."
Li Daoyan's father was Li Shentong, who was as famous as Li Daozong and Li Xiaogong among the four generals of the clan.
Time passed and Li Shentong passed away early.
With such a big family left behind, Li Daoyan, as the eldest brother, has a heavy burden on his shoulders. Zhang Yang smiled and said: "So, does Brother Daoyan think he is still invincible now?"
"What's the use of being invincible? It's just that things at home are a mess."
There was a bit of helplessness in his words, which is true...
All heroes will worry about family matters. Life cannot be separated from daily necessities. How can it be said that it is so easy to just leave at the drop of a hat?
There are only a few people who can be free and easy.
Li Daoyan still has such a big family to take care of. He is one of the few in the clan who has to shoulder the prestige of the entire family at such a young age.
He, Li Shentong, had nine sons, but he passed away, leaving behind so many brothers.
Li Daoyan also has to take care of himself.
This is what he, the elder brother, should bear.
There is an inexplicable feeling that the hero is lonely.
Li Daoyan whispered: "Speaking of being invincible in the world, when it comes to bravery, I can't compare to Su Dingfang. When it comes to military strategy, I can't compare to Captain Chi, let alone General Qin Qiong, who is famous in the Central Plains among the heroes in the world.
The barbarians are afraid of General Li Jing, who is famous in the Central Plains."
"Compared to them, I am nothing."
Li Daoyan smiled and said: "They are the pillars of my Tang Dynasty."
Li Jing helped Li Tang conquer half of the country. His reputation not only spread throughout the Central Plains, but even the barbarians did not dare to offend him.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Moreover, Li Jing now lives in seclusion and seldom moves around in front of people.
I just heard that His Majesty would visit me from time to time.
In the battle at Yinshan, Li Jing eliminated the border troubles in the north of the Tang Dynasty. After returning, he laid down his military power, said that he had leg problems, and closed the door to thank guests.
How could a general with such great achievements not keep a low profile?
If he doesn't keep a low profile, Li Shimin will become impatient.
After the battle to quell the Turks, Li Jing's voice of dissatisfaction also appeared in the government and the public because Li Jing killed the Turks and surrendered his troops.
In the long and treacherous wars in the Central Plains, everyone understands the truth that soldiers never tire of deceit.
The military theory is that Li Jing was worried that the Turks would pretend to surrender.
As for whether it was a false surrender, Li Jing's merits and demerits were aside for the time being, and it was even more unclear at the moment. However, this battle not only shocked the border, but also greatly helped Li Shimin win over the people.
Li Shimin did not clearly accuse Li Jing of the crime. Since then, General Li Jing has been hidden by His Majesty and has been hidden to this day.
"How are your brothers doing?"
"It's not bad. Three of them are already married. The others are a bit more naughty. I will teach them slowly."
Zhang Yang wanted to say that Li Xiaoyi is currently busy with gang affairs with Cheng Chumo.
Seeing Li Daoyan, he didn't ask, and Zhang Yang didn't mention it anymore. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "If we can't take care of him, our Diplomatic Academy is also short of people. We can let them go outside the customs for a few years to practice."
It was said that the Foreign Affairs Council often sent people outside the customs. Li Daoyan nodded heavily, "That's very good. That's exactly what I meant."
Zhang Yang added: "I don't want those who are already married. I want to send someone to the Uighurs in the north, and I also want to send someone to the Western Turks. I am still arranging the manpower. If Brother Daoyan has a suitable one, he can bring it directly to the Foreign Affairs Academy.
, I will arrange it.”
"Zhang Yang, I want to thank you for the opportunity to fight against Tubo. I don't want to owe you any more favors."
"Brother Daoyan has said it before. You have done such a big thing for us, so I should thank you."
Most of Li Tang's clans were generals, and the four generals in the clan were famous, and every family had glory.
Li Daoyan wholeheartedly wanted to restore the lintel so that his family could gain a firm foothold in the clan.
Seeing the people changing defense coming, Zhang Yang said again: "Then I'll go back first."
Li Daoyan nodded and saluted again, and then changed defenses with the generals who came.
In the past, the city of Chang'an started to bustle when we arrived at Mao hour, but now it is freezing cold, and every household does not open its doors until Chen hour. In order to make a living for the day, Zhang Yang bought some meat and rice noodles in Dongshi, and went home to make dumplings to eat.
When I returned home early, my wife and two girls were practicing sword practice.
Zhang Yang first put a package of memorials into the house, and then took out the pork to clean. He had onions and garlic growing at home, but in winter, in order to keep warm, he only took out these potted plants during the day.
Zhang Yang picked up his small kitchen knife and was about to chop the meat, but then he thought about the braised pork.
Currently, Lishan only provides soy sauce for the business of braised pork. With soy sauce, braised pork vendors can open outside.
The profits from braised pork are thin, and most of them are in the hands of Chu Mo.
It's been a long time since I've shared dividends with him.
Asking Chu Mo to take charge of the business was tantamount to giving away money, so the business ended up in the hands of the Cheng family, and Chu Mo could only arrange manpower.
Zhang Yang turned the meat over and continued to chop it. Thinking of Sun Fujia's experience in Luoyang, if you want a good brand, you need a stable price.
But at a time when productivity is lagging behind, meat prices cannot always remain stable, and costs will vary.
Even this kind of thing was impeached.
The more Zhang Yang thought about it, the more unhappy he became, and he chopped the meat with a little more force.
Seeing Master chopping meat and picking some onions and garlic, Xiao Wu asked curiously: "Master is making steamed buns?"
Zhang Yang turned the meat over and continued to chop it, "Make dumplings to eat."
"Okay, junior sister likes to eat dumplings the most."
Taking a look at this little girl's expression, it was obvious that she liked eating dumplings, and she also said that Xiaohui...
Xiao Wu ran away quickly again.
Xiao Qingqing was still a little staggering. She could not walk more than a few steps before falling to the ground. Li Yue did not help her and let her get up by herself.
However, the little bear would lower his head every time and let Xiao Qingqing help him stand up.
This bear dotes on its children.
"Yeah, yeah..." Xiao Qingqing said, and now she could only talk in such a confused manner.
When he saw her and was about to walk to the kitchen stove, the little bear stepped forward and picked up her back collar and moved away from the kitchen.
So much so that the bear can take care of the child without the aunt having to supervise it too much.
Sometimes big things don't bother people, but small things can easily make people worry about them for a long time.
Unable to bear it, Zhang Yang thought about it and wrote a letter, "Auntie, please give this letter to Chu Mo and ask him to send it to the braised pork branch in Luoyang."
"Here."
It is not easy for everyone to save money when they can. Sun Shaoqing also went to Luoyang for state affairs, and later served braised pork buns as a meal without charging him.
When he was impeached, he usually said that he made too much money, acted rudely, and instigated the nobles.
Forget it, you, Sun Fujia, came to impeach me because you thought the braised pork was expensive.
That's too much!
The sugar business is getting bigger and bigger in Luoyang, and more and more children of aristocratic families are participating. In order to stabilize their profits, they must eat more sugar. Only by reducing the amount of sugar on the market as much as possible can the sugar in their hands be reduced.
White sugar maintains price.
This way money will not be lost in vain.
Originally, white sugar was just a kind of sugar, but futures became popular among the children of aristocratic families. For a time, everyone began to delve into the price of white sugar and the profits that could be obtained from this business.
Some children from aristocratic families have begun to find that they don't have enough money, so in order to buy more sugar, they have used the family's money.
When the output is high, the price is low, and when the output is low, the price is high.
The method of buying low and selling high is actually not uncommon, especially for grain merchants who have long been tired of this method.
Someone had already begun to throw out the purchased sugar. Li Xing knew that it was time to close the net. If he didn't close the net, it would be really difficult to collect the sugar.
He immediately wrote a letter and had people rush to send it to Chang'an City.
After spending money in the family, they were unable to exchange sugar for a suitable profit for a while. They even began to find ways to make up for the shortfall. The friendship between the children of the original aristocratic family began to be separated and antagonized because of money.
And those who are deeply trapped have already been trapped, and it is difficult to escape.
The previous madness finally reaped the consequences. They began to do nothing every day, began to have restless sleep and food, and even asked Taoist priests to do it, and even tried harder to collect money.
The sugar business can easily generate millions of profits. Sun Fujia was originally investigating the death of two scholars, Liu and Zhou.
The matter involved children from aristocratic families, so naturally he followed the clues and found out about sugar.
When Sun Fujia saw the price of sugar and the huge flow of money behind it, he broke out in a cold sweat.
He has never seen such crazy trading methods.
Spreading out a piece of paper, Sun Fujia wrote a memorial about what he saw during his inspection of Luoyang. Chaos in Luoyang had begun to appear, and he hoped that the government could send out manpower as soon as possible to deal with the unexpected event.
Many children from aristocratic families are involved in this matter, and the city of Luoyang will be in chaos sooner or later.
The memorial was quickly sent out of Chang'an City, and three or two strong men selling braised pork also saw this scene.
When Sun Fujia walked up to sell braised pork, he asked: "It's almost the New Year, why aren't you going home to visit your relatives?"
He took a bowl of millet rice from the other party. There was braised pork on the millet rice, and the sauce mixed with the millet rice was very delicious.
And he was very careful about it, which made him unhappy that it was five yuan more expensive than the one in Chang'an City.
When he finished eating and took out copper coins to pay, the other party waved his hand and refused and said, "You don't have to pay silver coins when you come to my place to eat from now on."
