The Yun family returned to Tokyo, and Tokyo was still calm. This is the spirit of a giant city, and there will be no special disturbances because of a certain person's life.
When Lu Qingqing inspected the Yun family's shops in Tokyo, he discovered that Wang Anshi's "Equal Loss Method" and "Market Change Method" were showing his ferocious face.
Grain, firewood, wine making, iron smelting, cloth, silk, and even tung oil, silk and hemp, and spices all have the shadow of the official family.
Some large guilds have completely collapsed, and some guilds that are unwilling to let go of their own interests are struggling to support themselves. In the end, some guild leaders have been thrown into prison. The government's behavior is ugly, although there are countless guilds.
A memorial was issued to impeach the newly-established Tiju City Yiwu Third Division Envoy Yamen. The memorial disappeared like a mud cow in water, and the whole city of Tokyo was filled with complaints.
Among these industries, the one that has the greatest impact on the Yun family is spices. A perfume shop called Guan Liansheng opened directly opposite the Yun family spice store. It robbed almost all of the Yun family business at a price that was 10% lower than the market price.
It was all gone, and there was no discussion beforehand and no compensation afterwards.
Judging from the rich mandarin spoken by the shopkeeper, this guy may be an official. If you put aside his ability, this guy's rank seems to be quite high.
The Yun family's method of dealing with such people is very direct. With a strong Yun family style of doing things, a group of strong men entered the Guan Liansheng store like bulls. They took a bite of all kinds of fragrant herbs and fruits and spit them out.
smelly.
What agarwood, woody incense, clove, patchouli, myrrh, tonka, nard, amomum villosum, cinnamon, angelica, fine tea, cyperus, catechu, white cardamom, areca nut, ginseng, mint, frankincense,
The precious fragrant medicines such as Kaempferia spp., Xixin, Yizhi, Angelica sinensis and Wuyao were all packed together in a huge sack without classification, and they were carried away after being given ten cents.
The shopkeeper didn't panic. He opened his mouth and said that he was an official. Before he finished speaking, a strong man carried a sack on his back and threw him from his shoulders to his back. Before he could scream, a boot that exuded a strong smell came out.
Step on his mouth, and then those strong men start smashing the store.
Scenes of bullying are common in Tokyo, and the people of Tokyo have long been accustomed to criticizing the powerful person who bullies others, and public opinion is a means they use to protect themselves.
If these strong men were bullying ordinary merchants, all the shop owners and clerks on this street might stand up and say a word or two of justice.
But today, there were many people gathered in front of the store. Everyone was quietly stuffing their hands into their sleeves to watch the excitement. Some sharp-eyed waiters were still whispering to the big men that they heard that there was precious ambergris in this store...
…
Da Song's police officers are always the last to arrive at a crime scene. When they arrive, except for the screams of the waiter and shopkeeper, no one can see the strong men in Guan Liansheng's shop.
There was a thick layer of fragrant medicines scattered in the shop, and none of the fragrant medicines scattered on the street could be seen. They were all picked up by the shopkeepers and waiters who were watching the fun with the idea of not wasting anything. As for the Yun Family Trading Company
The shopkeeper looked coldly at the detective who came to ask questions and sneered without saying a word.
Not only did he not say anything, but all the shopkeepers and clerks on the street also said nothing. They all said that they were busy with their own business and had no time to mind other people's business.
Lu Jiawen, the chief officer of the Third Department of Yiwu in Tiju City, is a capable official. He just found out the origin of those big men from clues, because those big men came from the old camp of the Japanese Army. Kaifeng Mansion wanted to pursue these people, but there was no way
They cannot enter the military camp without documents from the Ministry of War.
The Kaifeng Prefecture chief took the Kaifeng Prefecture's proclamation to find Wai Lang, the director of the Ministry of War, hoping to be allowed to enter the military camp to capture the bandits.
After the notice was received by the Ministry of War, there was no news. Under the pressure of solving the case on schedule, the police officer went to the Ministry of War to urge him, but he was beaten out with sticks. The Ministry of War does not need the Kaifeng government to urge him to do anything. As for when the notice will be approved, that will be
According to strict procedures, as long as a chief official is absent, the approval of this proclamation will be far away.
Lu Jiawen was so angry that he came to the Ministry of War to find Yun Zheng in person, but Yun Zheng, who was looking at the map of the northwest, dismissed him with the word "go away". As one of the most important figures in the court, he could give Wang Anshi face, but there was no need to save it for Lu Jiawen.
A little bit of face.
The habit of big men liking fragrant medicine shops has not changed. Guan Liansheng's shop was smashed every time it opened. In just ten days, this shop was smashed three times.
When it opened for the third time, Lu Jiawen was personally in charge. Those lawless men still smashed the store to pieces. Except for Lu Jiawen, who was moved to the street with chairs, all the people he brought were beaten down by the strong men.
Locally, even the Kaifeng Prefecture police officers were unlucky in this incident. The police officers holding weapons were beaten to pieces by a group of unarmed strong men.
Lu Jiawen, who was at Wang Anshi's residence, roared like a thunder: "These arrogant and powerful generals are extremely rude and dare to destroy, smash and rob in broad daylight. They are really lawless."
Zhang Dun shook his head and said: "This matter was obviously instigated by Yun Zheng himself. This person is used to being domineering. Back then, he even dared to beat up the imperial censor. What does our newly-built Tiju City Yiwu Third Secretary Yamen mean? You and I are here
What can a humble official with little ability do to him?"
Cai Bian, who had just returned from Hebei, said: "Yun Zheng is famous for being difficult to deal with, and so are you. It's not a good idea to open a shop there. I have to choose the shop opposite the Yun family. Isn't this obviously uncomfortable? Everyone in his family
It's Qiu Ba, so he will naturally choose his best way to take revenge."
Wang Yu said bitterly: "He is not doing it for a shop at all. With his status, it is impossible for him to cause such a big incident for a small shop. He is targeting the entire reform.
I heard from my father that Yun Zheng made it very clear on Li Chang's mother's birthday. He said that the "Equal Loss Law" and the "Market Change Law" were fundamentally harmful to the people.
This thief has sinister intentions. He wants to use brute force to make us succumb to his lust. The shop where Guan Liansheng was promoted must be reopened, otherwise it will mean that we have failed in the implementation of the "equal loss law" and the "market change law".
Not firm, not resolute. If we do not promote honest officials, it will be very harmful to our future implementation of the new law."
Lu Jiawen gritted his teeth and said: "I will reorganize Guan Liansheng's fragrant medicine shop and make sure to reopen it in the shortest possible time. This time, even if you are attacked with swords and axes, there is no way for me to take a step back!"
Wang Yu held Lu Jiawen's hand and said: "Reform has never been smooth sailing since ancient times. That reform was not carried out in a bloody storm. Fortunately, we still have a little blood that has not turned cold. If we persist to the end, we will see the light.
When the reform is successful, the Song Dynasty becomes rich and powerful, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, we will look at the ugly faces of these thieves and see how they can leave their names in the annals of history. Even if they leave their names, they will definitely be infamous and infamous!
On the day when Guan Liansheng opens, we will go together to see if the evil thief is really going to risk the disapproval of the world!"
When Wang Yu was speaking impassionedly, Yun Zheng felt his ears were itchy. He scratched his ears a few times and continued to listen to the shopkeeper's suggestion of opening a soy sauce garden opposite the Yunjia Spice Shop.
"Our family's bean paste has long been famous. The reason why we haven't opened a garden is because we are worried that most people won't be able to stand the taste of soybean paste. My wife is always worried that opening a soybean paste garden on the street will attract scolding from the neighbors.
Now is a good opportunity. We take advantage of the time when everyone is supporting our family and take the opportunity to open the sauce garden. Hehe, once the sauce garden is opened, it will make the spices next door stink. They sell smelly ingredients, and they also sell spices.
"
Yun Zheng thought about it for a moment, and the shopkeeper was right. The fermented smell of Jiangyuanzi was actually not very bad, but if it was mixed with spices, the fragrant and smelly smell would fill Yun Zheng's stomach just thinking about it.
Just bursts of pantothenic acid water.
Yun Zheng took a sip of water to suppress the annoyance in his heart, and said to the shopkeeper: "Since we want to open a sauce garden, we should open one next to all the government-run spice shops in Tokyo. The location must be
Upwind, if the smell doesn't reach the spice shop, just blow it with your mouth."
The shopkeeper chuckled and said: "Master Marquis, please be careful. If the spice shop has no flavor, I will wear clothes stained with sauce and go to the spice shop to choose spices."
Yun Zheng praised the shopkeeper's thumbs up and asked him to carry out his plan.
Lu Qingqing came out of the back hall and said: "Your majestic general, the Minister of War and Jiang Yuanzi can't find the shameful one."
Yun Zheng laughed and said: "Idle time is also idle. It's good to find something to kill the time. By the way, aren't you supervising your daughter's learning of the zither? Why do you have the time to eavesdrop on the gossip between me and the shopkeeper?"
Lu Qingqing said proudly: "This child didn't pay attention before, but now that he pays attention, his progress has been rapid. Now he can play a complete piece of music, but it is a bit jerky. This cannot be done in a short time.
.”
Yun Zheng nodded and said: "Just wait for your daughter to embarrass you. My daughter said that she is much smarter than you. If you learn something for a year, if it takes more than a month for her to learn it, she will lose and she will make a big decision."
I swear, she will never touch ice cream again from now on until I defeat you!"
Lu Qingqing laughed and said: "It's not so easy to learn the reduced word music. It takes ten days just to memorize the syllables for a piece of music. Syllables are not words. Every word is very difficult to pronounce. I said ten days is that.
Refers to a genius like my concubine.
Although your daughter is very clever in arithmetic, this kind of memorization that requires terrazzo skills is not her strong point. Poor, this child loves ice cream most, and it seems that she will not be able to eat it from now on."
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "How about I increase my bet? If it takes your daughter a month to learn a new song, you must serve me once as I said, the one on page 11 of the wedding book. If you can't learn it,
"If you ask me to chase chickens within a month, I will never chase dogs!"
"Hahaha..." Lu Qingqing laughed, pointed at Yun Zheng and said, "I don't know where your confidence in your daughter comes from.
Okay, it’s a deal, as long as I lose, your disgusting conditions will be fulfilled. If I win, then you don’t have to shirk and cheat."
Yun Zheng stretched out his palm and said, "A word from a gentleman!"
Lu Qingqing patted Yun Zheng's hand and said, "Hurry up and whip your horse!"
After the bet was over, Yun Zheng smiled up to the sky and went out, which made Lu Qingqing look suspicious. (To be continued)
