Li Qi said expressionlessly, but he was thinking in his heart, he is indeed my disciple, he even knows the master's mantra without a teacher.
"Wow---!"
Zhuo Lin covered her mouth and said in horror: "How do you know? The Emperor promised me not to tell anyone."
Zhang Chuner looked at Zhuo Lin in surprise.
"I just want to know why the emperor agreed to such a boring thing from you."
Li Qi rolled his eyes and showed a speechless expression.
The excitement on Zhuo Lin's face suddenly turned into joy, "Master, you are really amazing. I didn't misjudge the person."
"Stop!"
Li Qi raised his hand, sweating like rain, and said: "Since you are the deputy economic envoy, you should abide by etiquette in the Commerce Bureau. I am your boss now, but I seem to remember that you have been here for so long and you have not asked me yet.
salute."
Zhuo Lin stuck out her sweet tongue and imitated the Han people in cupping her hands and said: "Your Majesty, Zhuo Lin, is here to see the Privy Councilor."
Li Qi snorted and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. This woman was so frightened. He pointed at Zhang Chun'er and said, "This is the left deputy economic envoy, Zhang Chun'er." Then he thought about Zhang Chun'er and said, "This is from the East.
Nuzhou, used to be the little king of Dongnuzhou, oh, her sister is the big king."
Zhang Chun'er and Zhuo Lin bowed to each other again, but they didn't even look at each other. They were very hostile.
This woman's fight is really terrifying. Li Qi hurriedly said: "Everyone, sit down!"
"yes."
After the two of them sat down, Li Qi sat down, coughed slightly, showed a serious expression, and said: "From today on, you will officially take office in the Commerce Bureau. Although this Commerce Bureau is not as old as you
big---."
Zhuo Lin curled her lips and said, "I'm only in my early twenties." But she looked at Zhang Chun'er.
Zhang Chuner is a little depressed. You are in your early twenties, why are you looking at me? Do you blame me for dragging you down?
"The Commerce Bureau is less than ten years old."
"oh."
Li Qi squinted his eyes and said: "I don't know what it is like in your Dongnu state, but here it is a very impolite behavior to interrupt someone else talking, and it is even more impolite to interrupt a boss.
Stupid behavior."
"Yes, I understand."
Zhuo Lindai frowned slightly, looking very aggrieved.
Master Li is a person who is easy to be soft-hearted. As long as he is facing a beautiful woman, he can't bear to blame her anymore. He added: "The Commerce Bureau has a short history, but the workload is very heavy and cumbersome. Everyone in the Commerce Bureau is a
It is difficult for first-class talents and those without ability to gain a foothold here. I don’t care who introduced you, as long as I find you are not suitable, I will ask you to leave, because the Commerce Bureau is in charge of the economy of the Song Dynasty. Whenever something happens,
The losses caused by any deviation are immeasurable. Why are the salaries of officials of the Bureau of Commerce very high? It is because they work harder than other departments. I hope you are all hard-working people."
After a pause, he continued: "Since you were the deputy economic envoys when you came up, the person who recommended you must have great confidence in you. The Commerce Bureau will be facing a very important task at the moment, and I plan to use this task as a response
Your assessment. In recent years, the Song Dynasty has had good weather, and all the major granaries have been overflowing. The abundant grain has also caused grain prices to fall. Many grain merchants, including many common people, have expressed their dissatisfaction with this phenomenon and hope that the imperial court
Can step in to regulate food prices."
Zhuo Lin looked curious and said: "Privy Envoy. Your Majesty--can your Majesty speak now?"
Li Qi nodded.
Zhuo Lin said: "There is a lot of food, and the drop in food prices is a good thing for the people. Those unscrupulous grain dealers have made so much money, why are they still not satisfied? The court should teach them a lesson."
Li Qi shook his head and said: "First of all, I want to correct you. You are not Xiao Wang now, but the deputy economic envoy. You should be careful in your words and deeds. The targets of our Business Bureau are all businessmen. This is a cooperative relationship.
You are talking about a black-hearted grain merchant. Do you think those merchants will listen to you in the future? Secondly, you have to understand that there is nothing for nothing in this world. The fall in grain prices does not mean that farmers have to sweat less. The fall in grain prices has a negative impact on
For farmers, this is by no means a good thing, and the drop in food prices covers many industries. Their original prices were set based on the original prices, but the drop in food prices forced them to follow the decline. In other words, businessmen
It will always be in a state of debt. If this continues, once a critical point is exceeded, large-scale businesses will go bankrupt because they cannot bear the debt, and a large number of unemployed people will appear. This will continue a vicious cycle, so the court must
We have to stand up and regulate food prices."
Is this really the disciple of the Privy Councilor? There was a hint of doubt in Zhang Chun'er's eyes. This question couldn't be simpler. She didn't understand why the emperor would recommend a person who couldn't even figure it out to be the deputy economic envoy. This also made her
After taking a breath, she very much hoped to have a pig-like teammate, because this would highlight her even more, and said: "Privy Councilor, does the imperial court want to spend money to purchase grain to prevent the drop in grain prices?"
"clever!"
Li Qi nodded and said: "The imperial court will allocate five million yuan to purchase grain."
"Five million strings?"
Zhuo Lin exclaimed.
This is a child who has never seen the world and should be understood. Li Qi only said: "This is the Song Dynasty."
Zhuo Lin looked a little embarrassed, but felt her heart beating faster, and said: "You---you mean to give these five million cans to us?"
"Leave it to you, can you carry it?"
Li Qidao: "You must immediately work out an acquisition plan, including where to acquire and what the price will be."
Zhuo Lin was a little confused. Although she was Li Qi's apprentice, she had spent too little time with her, and Li Qi didn't teach her much. This new economic concept made her unable to react.
A dull look on his face.
However, Zhang Chun'er was already thinking about longer-term matters and said: "But the Privy Councilor also said just now that the granary is overflowing, and now that so much grain has been purchased, where should this grain be used?"
Li Qi smiled happily and said: "You can ask this, which has proved that your mentality can cope with this position. However, the emperor has his own arrangements. You are only responsible for formulating the acquisition plan. You must remember that although this is
A macro-control. But in essence it is still a business. No one wants to be a loser. These five million dollars are not for charity, they must be spent wisely."
"Yes, I understand."
Zhang Chuner nodded and said.
Li Qi asked Zhuo Lin again: "What about you?"
"do not understand."
Zhuo Lin looked at Li Qi blankly.
You don't have to be so honest. You can pretend to understand even if you don't understand. You are recommended by the emperor. Aren't you slapping the emperor in the face like this? Li Qi said with a cold sweat: "Then you have to work harder. I will tell you later."
I will arrange to take you to visit the Commerce Bureau to understand the entire Commerce Bureau’s operating system. After that, Mrs. Zhang will treat you to dinner."
Zhang Chun'er was startled and said, "Why me?"
Zhuo Lin also said: "Yes, Master --- Privy Councilor, aren't you going to take care of me for me?"
Li Qidao: "I'm very busy. As deputy economic envoys, you will have a long time to cooperate in the future. You should get to know each other better. You can also ask Madam Zhang for advice. Madam Zhang is also someone I admire very much.
merchant."
Zhuo Lin seemed not to be satisfied yet and said, "But you can invite me to your house for a simple meal. I also want to meet your Mrs. Yelu."
Um?
Zhang Chuner looked at the two of them with a strange look. This sentence was a bit ambiguous.
Damn! What a joke. My family is already a feminist family. If I let you, a naked feminist, go to my house to teach my wives, will there be room for me in the future? Li Qi coughed lightly
He said, "I said I've been very busy recently. And you don't necessarily have much free time. With such a huge task, you still have time to think about where to eat? Do you know what the spirit of our Commerce Bureau is?"
Zhuo Lin shook her head blankly.
"Just eating and doing things at the same time."
As Li Qi spoke, he thought about Zhang Chun'er again: "Ms. Zhang, don't you want to add a word or two?"
Madam Zhang was startled and said hurriedly: "Furthermore, superiors and subordinates should avoid too many private interactions. This may make people think that the Privy Council is forming cliques for personal gain, which is not good for both parties."
"Taking care of it!"
Li Qi turned to Zhuo Lin and said, "Did you hear that? Forming a party for personal gain is not a taboo for a minister."
Zhuo Lin pouted and said "oh".
"Okay, that's it for today. Oh, I almost forgot, Madam Zhang, you still have to be responsible for negotiating with Qin Shaozai on behalf of the Commerce Bureau. It's been hard on you these days."
Zhang Chun'er said hurriedly: "This is my honor."
Zhuo Lin asked again: "What kind of negotiation? Am I not going to participate?"
Are you kidding, asking you to participate in negotiations? Isn't this intentional to make yourself uncomfortable? Li Qi said lightly: "You are not ready yet, first figure out how to deal with the relationship between superiors and subordinates."
With that said, he immediately replaced the boss of the Commerce Bureau and asked him to take Zhang Chun'er and Zhuo Lin to get familiar with the environment of the Commerce Bureau, while he himself fled.
In fact, he is not fooling Zhuo Lin, but he really has a lot of things to do now. Although he said that he handed over the task to Zhang Chun'er and the others, he has to check it. This is not a trivial matter and there can be no mistakes. But he
It had been a long time since he had asked about the affairs of the Commerce Bureau. He still had to discuss this matter with Bai Qiannuo. In addition, the envoys from Xixia and the Jin Kingdom were about to arrive in Beijing. He also had to prepare for negotiations with the envoys from the Jin Kingdom.
However, the most critical issue in the Jin-Xia war was not the two warring countries, but the Song Dynasty. Whichever side the Song Dynasty leaned towards would definitely change the entire war situation. Therefore, the two countries were also eager to know about Tokyo Bianliang.
What kind of attitude was it? The envoys from both sides rushed to Tokyo at high speed.
It was a coincidence that the envoys from the two countries arrived in Tokyo on the same day, but one arrived in the morning and the other in the afternoon. Fortunately, Zhao Kai had made arrangements in advance, otherwise he would have been really in a hurry.
At the same time, a piece of bad news reached Tokyo. Shazhou fell. After Liu Yanzong wiped out the opponent's elite on the road, Wanyan Zongwang immediately attacked Shazhou from three sides and finally broke through Shazhou. Guazhou behind Shazhou was also in danger.
This news made the Xixia envoy Richard fainted on the spot.
A negotiation to determine the fate of Xixia began.
