Chapter 410 Father and Son Filial Piety Cai Taishi
The emperor's determination was so great that all the officials did not expect it. Even Cai Jing, who was always good at guessing the holy will, was caught off guard.
Bypassing the civil and military officials in Bianjing, Zhao Ji directly joined forces with Yang Lin to mobilize local officials, and then used the Xiulou to raise expenses.
When the news spread, the consort Pan Yi was the first to come to buy shares. He was punished miserably by Yang Lin. From then on, he followed the principle that he would participate in whatever Yang Lin did, and he would always make a lot of money.
.
Whether it was the issuance of silver notes at the last opening of Xiulou or the Northwest Tea Horse Trading Road, the mutton business made him a lot of money.
The news about Xiulou's fund-raising spread, and the whole Bianliang, which had been very lively for a while, suddenly became a little quiet.
After scolding you during the day for causing harm to the country and the people, many officials sent their servants to the Xiulou to deliver money at night, and repeatedly asked them to keep the investment in the name of the following person confidential.
There were many vehicles and pedestrians coming and going in Xiulou at night, and all of them kept their faces hidden. During the day, the officials gathered together to point out the situation and scolded Yang Lin. At night, their servants went to the building to register and send money.
In the private room on the third floor of Xiulou, it was already time to light up the lights, and a trace of candlelight shone through the window.
Yang Lin held on to the railing and watched the people coming and going downstairs. Next to him was a tall, plump woman with a gauze lantern in her hand. Her eyes were as bright as stars on her fair-skinned jade face.
Xu Yuenu smiled sweetly, like a flower blooming softly in the night: "Lin Lang, what are you looking at here so late? You are smiling so naughty."
"Hey, I'm laughing at these people. I say no, but my body is very honest, just like you, Yue'er." Yang Lin showed a big smile and couldn't help but mock.
"Fuck you." Xu Yuenu punched him, slowly approached, took his arm, and said: "You said you would marry someone else when you married your first wife. You still don't have any news, so you just know how to trick people."
"Now is the period when my career is on the rise."
When Xu Yuenu heard these words again, she felt annoyed. She originally wanted to give him some advice, but after thinking about it for a while, she was reluctant. She bit her lip and stepped forward to hold Yang Lin's arm, saying: "What a shame!"
What exactly is a career, and when will it be completed?"
Yang Lin chuckled, pointed at the thieves-like crowd downstairs and said, "My success or failure this time depends entirely on them. The more of these birds, the better I can succeed."
Xu Yuenu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought, "It's all about money. I'll ask Old Xu to send someone to invest more."
For transactions in the Japanese country of Japan, Xujiazhuang had its own mint workshop in the Japanese country, which was directly used to exchange gold and silver ore.
Xu Yuenu had an idea in her heart and stopped being impatient. Yang Lin couldn't run away anyway. The good thing about this guy is that when he is with his woman, no matter which one he faces, he really likes her.
Just a little more fraternity. These women may each have their own shortcomings, but Yang Lin is too strong and suppresses these shortcomings without exception, whether it is Xu Yuenu, who is unruly and hot-tempered; Yin Qianqian, who is beautiful on the outside but charming on the inside; lazy and lazy
The lazy Li Ning'er is always sweet and sweet around Yang Lin. Not only because of his status, but also because he is a bit clever in his methods and knows how to prescribe the right medicine, which makes these beauties follow him wholeheartedly.
This is simple to say, but in the Song Dynasty, there were too few high-ranking officials who were willing to put down their posture to win the hearts of women. They were almost rare.
Not hearing Xu Yuenu's voice, Yang Lin just thought she was angry, and turned around with a smile: "What's wrong, Yue'er, are you angry? I'm joking with you, I'm going from Mizhou in a few days
Tianjin Wei, I will take you with me when the time comes, and we will hold a wedding at sea."
"Marriage at sea?" Xu Yuenu suddenly froze on the spot, her heart pounding wildly, Lin Lang and him
It turns out that when Xu Yuenu was a child, she often played at the beach. When she grew up, she once again watched the sea under the setting sun and accidentally said that she wanted to get married on the sea.
He only thought that Lin Lang was in sympathy with her, and he never thought that Miao'er, that young man, had sold her out completely.
The beauty's eyelashes trembled, and there was a wonderful light in her beautiful eyes, and her tenderness was like water. Yang Lin smiled in his heart when he saw it, and took the opportunity to step forward and hug her and said: "How about it? Can you say it? If you don't
If you like me, I will go to my comfort zone to marry you in a few days."
Xu Yuenu was taller than him, so she hugged Yang Lin to her chest, closed her eyes and said, "I like it."
Yang Lin has been among the flowers, and is a real friend of women. She is very experienced. One look at her appearance and tone can tell that she is deeply moved. It would be a waste not to mention conditions at this time. She looked at it with ill intentions.
Xu Yuenu's long legs were round and straight. Yang Lin squinted and said with a smile: "Good Yue'er, let's play a horse riding game, shall we?"
"Ah? My dad used to play with it when I was little. It's a little heavy now. Besides, is the ground cold here? Can you hold it up?"
"I'm definitely not good with my skinny body. Come on."
"Go to hell."
While the two were flirting, there was a knock on the door outside, and Wang Yun's voice came: "Young Master, is it convenient for me to come in?"
"come in."
After Wang Yun came in, he saw Yang Lin standing at the railing and looking down. He smiled knowingly and said, "I've seen you too, the young master. The day to open the river is not far away."
Yang Lin was a little surprised and asked: "How come it's so fast? Even if people keep investing money, it's impossible to collect so much money in two days."
Wang Yun said with a smile: "Young Master doesn't know something. Many of the businessmen inside Xiulou invest money."
Yang Lin nodded, suddenly realized, and smiled: "It doesn't matter. What I want is to start work as soon as possible. It is best to connect Youyan Hebei with the rest of our Song Dynasty before the war comes."
Although he said this, he also knew that it was unlikely. The Jurchens' troops could not wait until next year to go south. The most likely possibility would be to attack this summer while the weather is warm.
When Wang Yun saw that Yang Lin was in a good mood, he stepped forward with a smile and said: "Young Zai, I have an idea and I don't know whether to be a general or not."
"But it doesn't matter."
Wang Yun rubbed his hands and said: "Young Zai, although we don't have enough money to dig the entire length of the canal, we can raise money and start construction at the same time. Do you think it's okay? It's better to start construction first so that everyone can see what this river is like."
Once it's dug out, they'll feel more confident when investing."
Yang Lin groaned and felt that it made sense. He thought about it carefully and said, "It rained heavily in Kaifeng Prefecture a few days ago. I don't know what it is like in other places. Let's discuss it with Zhang An from the Hezhi Department.
Make your decision again.”
Wang Yun nodded and said: "The young master is still thoughtful. The little people are waiting for news about the young master at the Xiulou. The wine and food are prepared for you below. Can you serve them now?"
Yang Lin was also a little hungry, so he smiled and said, "Bring it over, and bring me a riding crop and two long soft silk ropes."——
"Dad, give me a check to count."
Cai You came to Cai Jing's house and said carelessly. Cai Jing, who was eating, waved his hand, and the maids immediately wiped him clean. Cai Jing then raised his head, looked at him with squinted eyes, and said, "What are you going to do again?"
"I want to invest in Xiulou and make a lot of money. Dad, you don't know, but my family won't be able to uncover the truth."
Cai You was an expert at amassing money. Looking at the Song Dynasty, he was second only to the dead Wang Fu and Zhu Meng. He said that he had no money. Cai Jing was so angry that he laughed: "You rebellious son, don't you know that your father does not agree to open the river?"
Sitting down in front of the table, he waved to the maid to bring him a pair of bowls and chopsticks. Cai You said nonchalantly: "Hey, dad, don't you agree that it's useless? Yang Lin is about to start construction soon. If you don't invest any money, it will be a waste." Let others make money. I heard that Gao Qiu directly sent people to use cars to pull money to invest."
What Cai Jing couldn't stand the most was that his eldest son was so talkative that he was not a scholar. He had left them in his hometown while he was busy with his official career and failed to teach his son well. He patted the table and said angrily: "That Gao The lieutenant and your father are equals, how can you be so disrespectful to him?"
"Dad, please don't change the subject. I borrowed money from you. When Yang Lin repairs the canal, the river will flow day and night. I don't know how much tax will be collected. I'm still waiting to be divided. Regarding Gao Qiu's matter, we will discuss it later It’s not too late.”
"Get out, get out of here!"
Cai You was startled by his father's sudden rage and said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, I just borrowed some money from you. It's not like I won't pay it back. So Yang Lin gives you so much money every year, what's wrong with me using a little?" "
Because of the rapid popularity of silver notes and the opening of trade routes in the Western Regions (all merchants in the Western Regions used silver), the upper class also began to use silver in large-scale purchases and money transactions.
Cai Jing pressed his forehead, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. His bastard son was second to none, and the most angriest thing was that Yang Lin and Zhao Ji bypassed him as prime minister and directly commanded the place.
In the Song Dynasty, no prime minister had ever been humiliated like this, and it could be said that his majesty was completely ruined. From then on, the position he worked so hard to maintain would no longer have the same exclusive status as before. If this is the case, then the prime minister will become It was just an ordinary official position, how could it have the status and glory it has today.
Cai Jing hated the idea of building the river, but his son kept borrowing money to invest in the river.
He, Cai You, is also a high-ranking official in the current dynasty. How could he not be able to see the twists and turns in this? He wants money but not his father.
Cai Jing, who was so old that he was allowed to have a maid when working in Mingtang, brandished a cane and hit Cai You on the back.
"Dad! You are crazy!"
Cai Jing's legs and feet were surprisingly agile, and he chased his son all over the house and beat him. The eldest son was angry with him not once or twice, but this time he was ready to settle the accounts.
When Cai You saw that his father was so angry this time, he hurriedly ran away, thinking in his mind where he could get some money to invest in Kaihe. He didn't feel confident investing his own money.
"Ouch." The blow on his back made Cai You gasp in pain, and he cursed and muttered something.
After beating his son away, Cai Jing no longer had any appetite. His meal required hundreds of people and nearly a thousand steps from start to finish. He stopped eating when he lost his appetite.
After returning to the bedroom, Cai Jing said to his personal maid: "Go to the Du Guan and ask him to call all the people from the Lecture Department to the Taoist government."——
"Haha, can Cai Jing and Yang Lin fall out this time? These two scoundrels have never done a good thing since they entered Bianjing. They are running against this house every day. I want to see them dog bite dog this time.
Whoever can bite wins."
In the room of the Minister of Internal Affairs, a light was shining like a bean, and Liang Shicheng's excited voice came from the room. His anger was justified. Since the third year of Chongning, Cai Jing, Tong Guan and Yang Lin came to Beijing successively, he had been having bad luck.
First, the meat in his mouth was lost, and Shibosi was robbed. Then Wang Fu also died, and his power was eroded bit by bit by Cai Jing. Even in the Great Inner Ban, the world of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was no longer in control.
There is no reason to have an extra Lao Shizi Long Live Camp and a police factory.
In addition, the Imperial City Secretary who wears the same pants as them, there is such a huge palace and Imperial City, and there is nothing for him to do.
Wang Ning, the Minister of War, said: "The reason why Yang Lin is so arrogant is nothing more than the favor of the officials and the protection of Cai Jing. Now that he has killed himself, Enfu, our opportunity has come."
After being suppressed for so long, an opportunity suddenly came. Liang Shicheng was still a little nervous: "How do we take action?"
Wang Ning lowered his voice: "Of course he is making a fuss about opening the river. He has offended so many people at once. We must not let him open the canal smoothly. Otherwise, many of these people will make money and their hatred for Yang Lin will be over."
It’s not that big anymore.”
It is said that cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents. Yang Lin's opening of the North-South Canal greatly affected the property of Bianliang's powerful people in Kaifeng Prefecture. It is unknown how much money they will have to pay.
It doesn't matter to him, because the business empire of Long Live Camp is spread all over the country, and this canal will give them great convenience.
Liang Shicheng narrowed his eyes and revealed his fierce look: "In the past, he used tricks several times, but he always bit him back. This time, we must plan carefully. We still have some tricks of his, huh, if it doesn't work, let's use them together.
."
There were several officials in the house, all of whom were under Liang Shicheng. These people relied on him to rise to power, so there was no doubt about their loyalty for a while.
Everyone has been fighting for so long, with Liang Yinxiang being one against two. Even though Cai Jing, the old cunning guy, is ambiguous every time and tries to balance the situation to his advantage, but in general, he still thinks about Yang Lin more often.
When everyone heard this, it turned out that Yang Lin had something in Liang Shicheng's hands. No wonder Yin Xiang was so excited.
Everyone came together, and Wang Ning asked: "What's the reason for En Mansion?"
Liang Shicheng just smiled and shook his head and said: "Of course the trump card is used at the last moment to give Yang Lin a fatal blow."
Wang Ning looked at him, and suddenly he felt worried. Yang Lin often had troops outside. He didn't know what leverage the hidden minister had on him. Don't use it when he was commanding troops, otherwise we people would be in danger.
There is no place for death.
This worry passed away in a flash. Wang Ning shook his head and secretly thought that the Song Dynasty had never seen a military uprising, so why should I be here to worry unfoundedly?
