Chapter 142 The prosperous age that belongs to Brother Ji (end of this volume)
The Dali Temple institution was founded in the Northern Qi Dynasty and continued in the Sui and Tang dynasties. As the highest judicial organ in the central government, it is in charge of trials.
In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Dali Temple Prison under the Dali Temple, which mainly detained criminals who were tried in the temple and arrested by Zhi Jinwu, who was responsible for protecting the capital.
Of course, this is all nonsense.
For the bureaucrats in Chang'an, Dali Temple Prison was not a good place at all.
The only advantage is probably that the accommodation conditions are better! You won’t die if you live there!
You know, Dali Temple is known as "the last fig leaf of the Tang Dynasty's law." If the prisoner died in Dali Temple Prison, it would be a slap in Brother Ji's face.
It happened to be a white dew day, and the Dali Temple Prison welcomed a distinguished guest: Li Linfu, the right minister of the Tang Dynasty!
Across the wooden fence, Zheng Shuqing, who had been living in Dali Temple Prison for several months and was covered in rancid odor, had his eyes widened. He quickly came over, looking at each other eagerly like an abandoned stray dog.
After waving his hand to the jailer behind him, this young man who was accustomed to big shots stepped forward and carefully opened the door of Zheng Shuqing's prison cell, and then quietly stepped aside, as if he had never appeared before.
"Right Chancellor, how is the court... now?"
Zhang Guangsheng was smiling warmly in his heart, but his face was about to burst into laughter.
If you say the wrong thing in that situation, you could really get killed. Where can I drink before leaving?
When it was time for dinner, the aroma filled the Zhang family's small hall. Various delicacies from the Central Plains and the Western Regions were placed on the table in turn. There was a pile behind everyone's table.
Li Shizhi made a small bow to An Lushan.
In the world, is there no business worse than monopoly business?
Let me ask, there is definitely no choice, who would be willing to be a dog?
The disheveled Hu Wuxia stopped kowtowing to Anlu Mountain.
The other part, those who sell goods full-time in Chang'an, need to run trade routes. The Dunhuang caravan provides us with corresponding goods, which is used to control the origin and source of the goods, and no one will accuse us of selling stolen goods.
Zhang Guangsheng said with a fake expression.
The caravan stipulates what goods should be sold at what price, and the brothers have to sell them at that price. They have to lower the price privately!
Hu Wuxia said with a smile on her face.
The armies in Hexi have a small victory over Tubo, so they have problems such as deducting military pay. Tell me the truth now, do you have any ideas?"
Once Hu Shang is defeated, I, Mr. Zheng, will become the scapegoat, and I will be beheaded with severe mercy.
Just a few days later, the battle report from Hexi came: Hu Shang had a small victory over the main force of the Tibetan army, beheaded tens of thousands, and recovered the area that was not included in the Hexi Corridor in one fell swoop.
In short, it was a game where you were both a player and a referee. The businessmen present were traveling all over the place, and they could only say that they understood it by heart.
At the same time, Du Hope, the governor of Longzuo, continued to attack the city and captured the territory. Tibetans sent people to Chang'an to surrender and begged the Tang army to attack again.
How should we line up?
In order to avoid vicious competition, Zhang Guangsheng divided several areas, such as Luoyang Business District, Yangzhou Business District, Shuzhong Business District, etc.
I think that in Chang'an, as long as no one provides the supply of goods, it will be fine. You have the final say on the price. Anyone who lowers the price without authorization will be disqualified from our return.
Li Linfu sat down without disdain, looked at Zheng Shuqing and said with a smile: "You are lucky. Hexi has a great victory over Tubo, and the saint will no longer hold you responsible for your crimes."
Um?
I sat down under the Taishi chair, closed my eyes, and enjoyed Anaye's massage, and soon fell asleep leaning on her body. (End of this volume)
Zhang Guangsheng knocked on the study door and asked in a serious voice:
One part of them specifically took the route from the Western Regions to Dunhuang. They sold the goods to the caravans and then returned to the Western Regions. The goods were exempted from customs duties, so profits could not be guaranteed.
Before I walked out of Xiaoli Temple Prison, my face instantly became brighter!
Zheng Shuqing is aloof and difficult to get along with. I have heard that my son Zhang Guangsheng is a well-rounded person. Through Hu Wuxia's line, once you win over Hu Wuxia, will you contact Zheng Shuqing?
Li Shizhi choked and said, not knowing what to say yet.
"We're all eating vegetables. It's the Hongmen Banquet again. Businesses are benevolent and righteous. No matter who it is, I will always make things difficult for us."
To put it simply, it’s not that the detailed rules outside are very simple, and they don’t even say “all interpretation rights belong to the Shazhou Prefecture Government.” In other words, if someone has found a loophole in the past, the Shazhou Prefecture Government can plug it at any time.
leak.
It's a pity that it doesn't matter whether it's Zhang Guangsheng sitting under the main seat, or the local Hu Shang low-level general sitting on my right, or the local small household sitting on the left, or the Western Region Hu Wu sitting opposite.
No one moved their chopsticks!
The enemy of the enemy is not a friend! An Lushan heard from some channels that Zheng Shuqing had collected a small pile of evidence about Fang Youde, but he just had time to deal with that person. I think between the seven, there is nothing.
The personal grudges are outside.
The dignitaries in Chang'an have little money, but they cherish the goods that have been transported from afar with great pains, which makes me feel very sad all the time!"
"Yes, wait until he comes back."
Zhang Guangsheng clapped his hands, and Hu Wuxia in front of him brought a thick document and handed it to everyone present for circulation.
Li Linfu's adopted son Hu Wuxia, who also loved Wujiwu, took over Fang Chongyong's position and served as the military governor of Pinglu, while Niu Xianke was appointed the military governor of Youzhou.
"I'll buy your gems with just a few pieces of silk, and you'll feel bad for me."
"Since then, the saint has always thought that he was Jing Zhaoyin's seventh choice. It's a pity that he agreed with the saint at this time.
Cold love competes for every second and every minute;
"I come from Chang'an. It's not my feeling. The products from the Western Regions in Chang'an are really too cheap.
Now that Wei Jian is serving as the transfer envoy, a vacancy has come up in Jing Zhaoyin. He has no idea, should he take up the post right away?
Is there any specific disadvantage?
Of course, those related to the government are just your personal thoughts, haha, haha!"
Li Shi was stunned, thinking that the other party would actually mention that incident.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo, thank you, Prime Minister Zuo..."
The local small households read it and signed it directly; Guo Ziyi, Wang Sili and others also signed without thinking. Only the representatives of the gay brothers who were sitting opposite Hu Wuxia read the document word by word, without any trace of it.
You dare to be lazy, let alone sign carelessly.
An Lushan felt that the answer was almost ready to come out! Not to mention that Hu Wuxia was also from a clan!
There was a lot of chatter in the small hall, but nothing was said. What Zhang Guangsheng said was not strange, but it was the normal practice of trafficking goods in the Western Regions. Since Chang'an silk concentrated the essence of Xiaotang, its purchasing power was extremely low.
An Lushan was very happy when he heard that. I am not the kind of official who knows how to behave and does small things!
I know how time flies.
The content of that "proposal" was both complex and simple.
When An Lushan was feeling happy, Zhang Guangsheng was doing his own little things, which was extremely exciting!
"After a happy event, how can there be wine? When you are drunk and singing, how many times in life, come and drink, all of them will be filled by me!"
After hearing that, everyone heaved a sigh of relief and saw that Hu Wuxia had finished eating. Those of us also followed suit, but we didn't dare to drink.
"By the way, I heard that Hu Wuxia, Zheng Shuqing's son, was not old with him at the time. Is it possible that he can pass on a message to me?"
As soon as they heard that, these young brothers from the Western Regions, who had not been moved at all, immediately signed their names and stamped their personal seals under the document.
Hu Wuxia felt that she could not unite with Zheng Shuqing. It would be virtuous to kill him first and cut off Li Linfu's arm.
"Hey, it's just a big deal, so why bother. He and you are all working for the saint, so you should help him after all."
As for tariffs and so on, Zhang Guangsheng doubted Yan Zhuang's ability to make false accounts. Anyway, as long as he could fool the court, he would pay less and more.
Hearing those words, the atmosphere in the chapel suddenly exploded, and everyone present felt relieved!
Of course, there are no disadvantages. It’s not that they are exempt from customs duties and all miscellaneous taxes! Needless to say, there are no disadvantages like that!
There is a way to understand the truth,
An Lushan sighed to himself, I heard that Fang Chongyong was going to return to the court to serve as Minister of the Ministry of Industry, responsible for repairing the river embankment in Luoyang.
The atmosphere in the small hall gradually became colder. Zhang Guangsheng was probably eighty full after eating, so he wiped his hands with a piece of silk and waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
Li Shizhi knelt on the ground and kowtowed to An Lushan. He knelt until there were red blood marks under his forehead, but he still stopped.
So An Lushan turned his attention to Zheng Shuqing, who was dismissed by Li Longji as the Lingnan economic envoy (the same as the Jiedu envoy)!
In the past, we had to worry about transportation problems, and we only had to go to Chang'an to pick up the goods. Of course, in that case, Brother Ji was naturally divided into two camps.
…
That gave me a deep sense of crisis!
In the same sky, there are the same people, but they don't have the same idea.
"Still sleeping?"
The small hall suddenly became filled with cries of cries!
After all, the Western Region is so chaotic that it would be strange to see anything bad happen, right?
Behind the door of the Zhang family's small house in the big city of Shazhou, there were lanterns and colorful decorations, and it was even quieter than during the holidays. Many visitors greeted Zhang Chan at the door, including Sogdian Brother Ji who often spoke with an authentic Chang'an accent.
I patted Li Shizhi's shoulder affectionately and said, "He is just worried. As long as he is working for the saint, he will be treated badly."
It’s difficult to ride too hard!
"I am willing! It's too bad! Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo, for recommending me!"
The dignitaries in Chang'an have so much money, let us bleed! Luxury goods must not have the same price and quality as luxury goods! How can they be sold at such a low price!
"bad!"
Zhang Shougui walked over and took away the documents. Hu Wuxia shouted to everyone:
Can you continue to dream of youth?
Since it was Hu Wuxia who was arranging the military resources in Hexi and Niu Xianke was in charge of the front line in Liangzhou, both of them were praised by the Tang army!
Of course, if that kind of thing can be done too obviously and needs to be dealt with in a clumsy way, then for me, the problem is actually small.
According to the employment habits of the Tang army, once the river embankment in Luoyang is repaired, it is very unlikely that Fang Chongyong will become the prime minister. There are still two prime ministers left, and Li Linfu is good at military affairs, so he may be replaced.
"If you feel embarrassed, forget it. After all, it is a business cooperation. In the next two days, businessmen from Liangzhou will also come over for a meeting. They are just the first batch. The reason why I approached them first is because I
I still want to benefit the local people first.”
Previous volume: Hexi Qilinzi was so powerful that he conquered everyone as soon as he entered Chang'an
Warm love penetrates the breeze.
Moreover, the saint who left in his sixtieth year is still planning to establish a prince, and the battle for the crown prince is also about to start!
"Who said it was?"
Ten sweet dreams cover the sky;
Zhang Guangsheng leaned on the door of the room, and the song of later generations seemed to be heard in his ears:
…
The things we Hu Wu brought with great difficulty from various countries in the Western Regions were sold relatively cheaply.
Those who don’t have connections in the Western Regions will choose the first option, and those who don’t have connections in the Chang’an aristocratic circle will choose the seventh option.
"Well, since I have official duties, I can wait here for a long time, so I will go back to the Yamen to do my errands."
Hu Wuxia suddenly asked with emotion.
Let’s make a fortune together in the past! Let’s get excited!
"I've become familiar to you from now on. It's because I didn't save someone's life, so why should I care about it?"
After sitting in jail for several months, Li Shizhi figured out very few things outside.
After drinking some wine, he walked unsteadily and was sent to the front yard of the government office by Zhang Shougui. Zhang Guangsheng opened the study door and saw Anaye, a rough-looking man, flipping through medical books by candlelight. The scene was peaceful and beautiful.
Hu Wuxia's weak position in the border town made me feel helpless and I always felt like my limbs were being tied up, so I couldn't do what I wanted to do.
Laugh at the setbacks and try harder again.
That greatly satisfied Tang Jun's vanity!
Li Shizhi nodded, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "That's true."
"Do you think that's the case? So I don't have any suggestions. I'm just thinking about it. In fact, all of you here, in order to sell goods outside the circle of powerful people in Chang'an, occasionally fight openly and secretly, compete viciously, and compare prices with each other. That's very bad.
.
Is there any fool who would tell the Tang army or the court about that? Even if he did, so what, everything is legal and legal. The local government is considerate of the people. Isn’t it possible to impose high tariffs? As for the Dunhuang caravan, this is all private behavior.
It has to do with the government, and the government also has laws to interfere.
Those who are the same person can only sell goods at designated locations. Once discovered, they will be disqualified.
If such good conditions are to be promoted and accepted, there will definitely be no harm in doing so.
Zhang Guangsheng said with a smile and took a bite of steamed fish.
Zhang Guangsheng is very particular about public opinion. He definitely forces those gay guys to join the Dunhuang caravan, and he definitely puts a knife to others' necks to play with those things.
Zheng Shuqing was unable to lean against the prison wall, feeling like he was about to collapse.
An Lushan only felt a sudden surge in his temples, not feeling dizzy.
"Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo, for your good offices. I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude!"
Hu Wuxia said in a considerate manner.
It's complicated because the document said that a small-scale caravan was to be formed outside Dunhuang to be responsible for transporting goods from the Western Regions to Chang'an, and it could ensure the integrity of the goods, and it might also be robbed or embezzled.
The fish in Dunhuang are hard to find, but you can eat them yourself!
"Give me a squeeze on your shoulders."
"yes."
Anlushan, who was originally very powerful, did not gain any resources during that important war. His confidant Xiao Jiong even lost his official position as the Hexi Jiedushi!
Who will be replaced last?
Li Shizhi understood that all officials were dogs of the Tang army, but they were of the same type. Hu Wu could kill whoever he wanted, and that was the power of imperial power.
Zheng Shuqing asked in a low voice with a hoarse voice.
An Lushan hinted with his voice and expression.
Yes, if you join, you will die if you collect the tariff, and die if you are caught smuggling. If you encounter bandits and plundering on the road, the local government has ways to take charge of it. If you encounter it, just consider yourself unlucky.
Tang Jun treated me like a dog, and I endured it, because tolerating is good. Such a small family, a small local industry in Xingyang, this is something I can give up. It's just the kind of controlling destiny in the hands of others, that kind of thing
It feels really bad.
An Lushan comforted me and said.
"Either way, I'll go back and recover. His family will come to pick him up later."
Falling down on the street again and again.
So that’s it.
As for the local Doulu Army, our military expenses are all derived from this, including the low military pay for the border generals.
Of course, there are no restrictions on the types of goods, and they are all products related to people's livelihood. Things that people use daily are all let go and cannot be bought and sold freely. The caravan is also responsible for freight, but its pricing power is restricted.
In the past, if Ji brothers were selling goods in Chang'an, they could just send someone there. It was necessary to transport the goods from Dunhuang to Chang'an.
"Finally, something happened."
…
Hu Wuxia asked with a smile, her attitude was very kind and she had no airs at all.
Li Shizhi nodded gratefully, and his whole body felt relaxed. God has no eyes for me, I finally got through that difficulty.
An Lushan bowed calmly and left the prison.
Yes, the wonderful thing about that is that we lose pricing power.
"Saint, you have changed!"
I have written a proposal. If you have any questions, please sign below.
