Chapter 1005 Bureaucrats of the Southern Song Dynasty do not understand confidentiality
Because the main dish is mutton, the Beiguo Building opened by Su Changsheng quickly attracted the attention of Zhao Gou in the deep palace.

It is definitely not a simple matter to focus on mutton dishes this year, because the import channel is completely monopolized by the Ming Kingdom. If you want to eat mutton, you need to trade with the Ming Kingdom.

For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, the sheep were sent from the grasslands to the south of the Yangtze River for sale, and the asking price was not as high as ordinary. It was basically one of the top products exported from the Ming Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty. The aristocratic dishes that ordinary rich people can't afford.

Instead, the popular dishes are based on all kinds of river fresh and seafood.

However, Beiguolou is said to have a very good relationship with the merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and can obtain high-quality live sheep. The supply of mutton is guaranteed, and the taste is extremely delicious.

Its main dish [Fish and Sheep] is said to be able to bite the tongue of even fresh diners, and is widely sought after by the powerful.

As soon as his reputation became known, Zhao Gou, an old Kaifeng native, could not sit still. Zhao Gou sent someone to ask the chef of Beiguolou to enter the palace to make mutton dishes for him to eat.

Su Changsheng was overjoyed, and immediately sent the best cook and secret agent in the Beiguo Building into the palace to make mutton for Zhao Gou to eat. Zhao Gou, who was eating a top-quality fresh fish and sheep, couldn't stop his chopsticks. After eating, he had to walk with the help of the servant. Digestive children.

Even so, Zhao Gou couldn't help his appetite. He had to eat [Fish and Sheep Fresh] at least five times a month, and he had to have the top chef of Beiguolou enter the palace to make it for him, using the best ingredients and spices.

In this regard, Zhao Gou has never been stingy. He is willing to pay more than [-] yuan every time. When he is happy, he will reward the chef with dozens of yuan. It is equivalent to spending a lot of money.

Afterwards, Zhao Gou happily rewarded Beiguolou with a golden bowl, which was placed in the highest part of Beiguolou by Su Changsheng as a "treasure of the town building".

Beiguolou became an instant hit and became the first choice for gatherings of powerful and powerful people in the Southern Song Dynasty, and they had to eat mutton. They also ordered fresh fish and mutton. It's like being a douchebag.

As a result, the business of Beiguolou was so good that the dish of fresh fish and sheep became a limited edition.

What?You are a powerful person and you want to go through the back door?
Please, come here to eat fresh fish and sheep, which one is not a powerful person?
The only one who can go through the back door is the Emperor Taishang and his old man!You, obediently line up!
Also, who can compare his identity with Zhao Gou?

Su Changsheng made a lot of money in the Southern Song Dynasty by relying on the increasingly prosperous chain restaurant business, and then used this money to develop and expand the second action group of the Skynet Army, set up groups and groups in many prefectures, and gradually spread the intelligence network in the Southern Song Dynasty. The core area is laid out.

Based on the principle of darkness under the lights, the headquarters of the second operation group of the Skynet Army was also brought into Lin'an City by Su Changsheng to develop their intelligence work in the core area of ​​the Southern Song Dynasty and under the eyes of the Emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty.

I have to say that Su Changsheng's approach is very characteristic of Su Yonglin.

Relying on the special advantages of Beiguolou, he can not only strengthen the top dignitaries of the Southern Song Dynasty, become familiar with them and become the number one person, but also easily know the current hot political topics and hot political trends in the Southern Song Dynasty. .

In fact, it's not that he deliberately sent people to inquire about the news. It is really that the bureaucrats in the Southern Song Dynasty have no sense of confidentiality.

I just finished discussing with the emperor in the morning. I came to Beiguolou in the evening. After drinking a few glasses of wine, my face turned red, and I couldn't tell the difference between east, west, north and west, so I started to tell what happened in the court.

The voice is still very loud, and the words are eloquent, for fear that you will not hear it.

The guys who deliver the food are all well-trained professionals who pay attention to one eye, six ears and all ears, but when they encounter this kind of wine bureau, there is no place to show their skills.

It takes no effort to directly know what the Southern Song court wants to do, as well as the internal struggle and content of the court's struggle, etc.

Then about five days later, this information will appear on the desk of the commander's office at the Skynet Army Headquarters in Zhongdu.

In about half a day, some important news will appear on Su Yonglin's desk for him to know.

Not to mention some political issues and open political struggles that appeared in the courtroom, such as who fought with whom in the courtroom, and Su Yonglin knew about the news that there were some small frictions and unpleasantness between Zhao Gou and Zhao Tan, and they hadn't returned to Lin'an for a long time. .

One-way transparency is equal to yes.

Su Yonglin even knew that Zhao Tan had fallen in love with eating because he was in a depressed mood recently, and liked to relieve his depression by overeating, but within two or three months, his originally lean body had completely gone out of shape, becoming a typical example. middle-aged greasy man.

When he heard that Zhao Tan had become a middle-aged greasy man, Su Yonglin was so frightened that he quickly ordered fitness equipment from the Ministry of Industry and prepared to spend some time every day in the future for physical exercise to maintain his figure, so as not to lose his figure and suffer from three highs.

Of course, as an experienced spy king, Su Changsheng not only relies on restaurants to inquire about information, but also arranges for his subordinates to enter various official offices in Lin'an City as a handyman through some social connections to collect information by the way.

Officials don’t know how to clean, and eunuchs only serve the royal family. So many government officials in Lin’an City still have to hire some professional handymen to handle the massive chores.

Apart from officials, these handymen were the people who had the easiest access to important news of the Southern Song Dynasty.

But the Southern Song court did not defend them at all.

The reason is very simple. Judging from the education level of the Southern Song Dynasty, there is no possibility of literacy.

Even if top-level intelligence related to national defense was put in front of them, they thought it was written on the recipe for today.

What's there to beware of for a lowly clerk who doesn't know one big character?
After Su Changsheng learned about these inside information, he arranged for some literate secret agents to pretend to be illiterate and enter the government office to do odd jobs, mixing up a lot of establishments that were not considered to be organized.

Moreover, these spies have successfully entered the Lin'an Mansion, the Sixth Department, the Privy Council and other official offices, often bringing very meaningful information to Su Changsheng, and then to Su Yonglin to know.

Moreover, the Southern Song Dynasty government has never noticed any information leakage, and it is still unclear whether there are any, how many Ming spies in Lin'an City, and where they are.

Their counterintelligence work is not very impressive, at least it can be regarded as not at all.

In contrast, the Southern Song Dynasty spies planted in Zhongdu City, one or the other, all live under the strict monitoring of the Skynet Army.

It's not that they can't disguise themselves. In fact, these Southern Song spies also have some professional standards, and they live in Zhongdu City well.

It's just that they didn't know much about Ming society, and they didn't know the identity certification system that was popularized in Ming Dynasty, so it was impossible to enter Zhongdu City with a hidden identity. They could only enter Zhongdu City as merchants and followers in the Southern Song Dynasty. fully exposed.

Moreover, the Ming government also passed the "Secretary Act" early at the request of Su Yonglin, strictly restricting officials of certain departments from revealing information to unrelated people, and strictly restricting contact with the outside world for some key departments, which is completely in the society. Disappear.

Under such circumstances, the information found by the spies of the Southern Song Dynasty was basically on the same level as the uncles and aunts chatting on the street. 's superior.

To be honest, with the level of security and confidentiality that is better than nothing in the Southern Song Dynasty, Su Yonglin felt that he could plan to send someone directly into the Southern Song Dynasty court to give Zhao Tan a powerful medicine and make him the second Sun Yuanqi.

Lu You obviously didn't know all of this, and he didn't know the intelligence network of the Ming Kingdom in the Southern Song Dynasty, but Su Yonglin had a certain amount of trust in him, so he decided to let him contact Su Changsheng, and instructed Su Changsheng to protect Lu You secretly.

If someone wants to harm him, they must protect him and send him and his family safely to Zhongdu.

Such a self-awakened official of the former Southern Song Dynasty was of great significance to the Ming state.

Of course, the [passive consciousness] landlords and squires of the Ming Dynasty also had great significance to the Southern Song Dynasty.

In the late September of the fourth year of Hongwu, along with the envoys of the Southern Song Dynasty returning to the south, the situation of a large number of high-class people running the Southern Song Dynasty caused by the previous revolutionary wave swept the Central Plains was gradually realized by the Southern Song government.

As thousands of squires and gentlemen successfully crossed the artificial and natural blockades and entered the Southern Song Dynasty, they were known by the government. The rulers of the Southern Song Dynasty were ecstatic and thought they had discovered the loopholes in the rule of the Ming Kingdom and discovered that the Ming Kingdom will soon be Complete proof.

In ancient times, tyranny was fiercer than tigers, forcing people to hide in the mountains, and to avoid tyranny at the risk of being eaten by tigers. Now these groups of Ming landowners and squires have fled south, which is not a good proof of the tyranny of Ming Dynasty. How cruel and unpopular?
