Tang Dynasty good man

Chapter [-] Naturally

The cost is a bit high, and unnecessary consumption is a bit too much.He and his second daughter settled the bill. If Nan Jinchang wants to expand his business scope in the Su, Yang, Hang, Xuan, and Lu continents of Huainan Road, although he can make use of the relationship of Shanghualushui Workshop on Jiangnan Road, it is close to the edge after all. Little help with expansion plans into new markets.The planning is a bit huge, but it is a pity to ignore a few prosperous commercial distribution centers. After all, the waterways there are connected in all directions, and the imperial court invested a large amount of construction costs in the Yonghui period.

It's a big investment, so don't be too impulsive anyway, all the conditions have to be taken into consideration.Although he is in the capital, thanks to the Wang family's relationship, he can still pass on the locals. It's just a little troublesome to walk around the joints. The problem is not big, the key is transportation.Escorting money from Chang'an or from Jiangnan Road used to be a risk. There was no money order in this era, and foreigners who wanted to do business had to exchange real money.

This is a headache, let’s not talk about the weight of [-] guan. The series of expenses for escorting escorts alone can make people feel skinny, not to mention who in Chang’an’s escort bureau would dare to pay such a big one. The child was wrapped up, and if nothing happened, it was too late to cry.

The business in the south of other people's homes is accumulated over time. It is rare to invest such a large amount of money. It is a bit too ostentatious to think about it. After all, Nan Jinchang's power can't afford such a big scene. The Wang family is doing this as a backstage A little too much.

Missing the fourth child, I have to admit the fourth child's ability to do business. Thinking about having her in front of me, maybe I can have a better idea, but Nan Jinchang is the exclusive business of the Wang family, and it is a bit unreasonable to find someone from the Chen family for irrelevant matters. If it is not done well, it will cause the fourth child to have unpleasant thoughts.

"Who's there on Huainan Road?" Now we can only start from the relationship, unfold the map and carefully study the water and road transportation network. "Which family in the capital is more powerful in Huainan?"

The second daughter took out a notebook and looked it up, "Many houses occupy a little bit, and they are not too big. The Wang family used to run the business there after the abolishment, but now it has been down for a few years, and all kinds of people have stretched their hands over there. It's just a few businesses behind the Du family. The Cui family has only entered recently, so it may not be powerful, but the Dao Wang family has some foundations there. The three sons-in-law are all going to Huainan."

"What about the inner palace?" I know the Du family's business name, and they usually have a good relationship with Nan Jinchang, but they don't want to greet the old thief Du. The sons of the Du family are not in the capital now, and there is no way to intervene.Cui Zhang has nothing to say, since his family wants to develop in Huainan, they can consider cooperation between the two.Forget about being a Taoist king, dealing with princes is a taboo in this day and age.It doesn't matter if you usually meet, eat, drink, whore and gamble together, but you have to be careful when it comes to interests.

As far as not worrying about anything else, the key is the attitude of the inner government, counting the time, although Lanling promised not to develop in the country in recent years.But buying and selling is a long-term matter. If Nan Jinchang's face has just been established for three or five years, it would be disgusting if the Neifu opened a bigger one on the opposite side, let alone the opposite side.It is unbearable to open a family in the same city.

"There are a few companies that are attached to the inner government." The two daughters closed their notebooks disapprovingly, "The inner government will not go to Huainan in the short term. It seems that they want to take care of Shandong first. After all, compared with Huainan, People from the famous Shandong family are much more important."

"Oh," nodded, this is the foundation, it seems that the Li family is still worried about the Shandong clan.While wooing and suppressing, they also intend to bind the interests of the big family over there with the Li family. The political purpose of doing so is greater than commercial interests, and Huainan seems to be able to enjoy peace for a while.She pinched the little face of the second daughter, "use your brains and see how it is most cost-effective for us to stretch our hands over."

"I'm thinking about it." The second daughter held my hand and cuddled up slowly, her big watery eyes flickering left and right.Said softly: "When you can't think about it, soak in hot water. Maybe you have an idea."

With a smile, he glanced at Ying who was busy learning how to crochet at the door.Pulled the second daughter and whispered: "Go, find a way to get the fourth child out of the bathhouse."

Ever since the fourth child was repaired in the bathhouse, she has been digging into it a lot. Every day after get off work, she was so noisy and exhausted that she had to soak in hot water to relieve fatigue, and then asked the maid to bring her food in. She ate and soaked in it.Either he slept in it or he slept in it. Anyway, it has become a tradition for the fourth child to doze off while taking a bath. Every time, the second daughter has to go in to deal with it, and she is still reluctant to come out.

"Don't be in a hurry to call," seeing the second daughter walking out sneakily, Ying released the hook needle and shouted, "I just went in for a while, let her rest. I'll hook out these little cotton socks later. "

"When you hook it out, the wheat will be ready." He pulled a recliner chair out of the room with a smile, and patted the edge of the chair to signal the second daughter to come over. I thought you were knitting a scarf."

"Talent and learning," said Ying, who is proficient in needlework and threading skills, and she doesn't like to hear people say this. She raised the crochet needle to prick me, but it was too sharp, so she changed her hand and poked it. "The new style taught by Dalai is different from the usual ones. The weaving is different, with flowers on the ground," he said, pushing the semi-finished product in his hand towards me, "I will weave another pair for you when I finish weaving it for Jiu Jin."

Second-class citizens?In the past, it was always given to me first, but now that a boy is added, he is suddenly treated differently, which is so sad, "Call the nanny to throw the brat over here, and I will beat him up!"

Ying poked at me with the needle, and said with a smile: "No!" She turned her face to the second daughter and pulled her over, "What were you planning in there just now? I can't hear you clearly." She said with a smile He hooked the needle and stabbed the second girl's buttocks.

"Why do you bully the baby so well?" Pulled the second daughter over and put it on her lap, "Obviously revenge."

The second daughter nodded aggrievedly, and Ying smiled triumphantly, with a sinister smile.

In contrast, Lan Ling laughed heartily, especially Li Yifu, who was very sensible, signed with the Inner Government the priority purchase rights of the Li family's cotton farms outside the Great Wall for the next six years, and repeatedly asked people to express their willingness to meet the situation that the Inner Government felt was appropriate. The next plan is to raise some idle wealth to invest in the weaving industry of the Neifu.

Bargaining, with an appearance of caring about the gains and losses, repeatedly negotiating with the inner government about the six-year preemptive purchase right, being very concerned about the matter of buying shares, and asking around for the profitability of the weaving industry, and even talking about splitting into three groups , made a series of detailed comparisons with the business models of the Wang family, the Ministry of Industry, and Neifu.

"Slippery!" Lan Ling pouted.Lie down comfortably stretching your limbs, "Pretentious."

"You're wrong." He picked up the map, which is a map of the whole territory of Tubo. The places marked with red hooks are all paid by the Tang Empire. Suffering from the catastrophe during the famine year, they have already taken the supplies of the Tang Empire and started to take advantage of the famine to expand their sphere of influence. There is a tendency to re-divide the forces among the Tubo tribes west of Jiannan.

The territory of the traditional allies of the Tubo Prime Minister began to gradually shrink under the oppression of the tribes supported by the Tang Empire.The two largest forces in the south, Xituzhen and Sanchenzhen, are also ready to move because of the instability in Tubo, and there are signs of breaking away from the central leadership. After listening to the report from Xizuo, Xituzhen and Sanchenzhen have refused to submit to the guards. The Tubo army on the borders of Tang, Tu, and Nanzhao provided supplies, and for the first time put forward the request for their own clan to replace the local defenders.

Unable to balance the beginning and the end, Tubo has been unable to maintain its previous strength, and the situation has become increasingly chaotic. Even the Kamala tribe in the west brazenly announced their separation by virtue of the danger of the mountains.Form your own kingdom.

The trilateral talks among Tang, Tubo, and Tuyuhun are coming to an end. Although the terms have not been clarified on the negotiating table, it can be estimated that the value of the negotiation is getting smaller and smaller based on the signs of decline in Tubo.Now it is no longer a condition that Tubo is willing to withdraw its troops. It is still uncertain whether the garrison can be maintained.

Tuyuhun knew this.The Tang Empire had long expected that Li Yifu's hope of procrastinating on the negotiating table for a long time was gradually shattered. Once the negotiations were over, they might be able to get a decent result and show off for a few more years.But the wind direction in the court has become more and more unfavorable to the Xu and Li Group, and this alone is not enough to fight against Liu Rengui's gang of old men.He needs to find a way out for himself, but it is just to make people think that he loves money more than power, and he is trying to please the inner government.

Lanling is happy for sure. Li Yifu's pretentious posture shows that there are already differences within the Xu and Li Group. As the team that started as a martial sister, the confidants who have swept countless obstacles for the abolition of the empress will show signs of mutiny and lean towards the inner government. Just the first step.But for Li Yifu's behavior.Appreciation is appreciation, and you will never trust. The nickname of human cat is not for nothing, and it is not familiar at all.

"It's over for Tubo." Throwing the map aside, he sighed, "Be careful on the border, people who are hungry can do anything."

"There have been many reports of entering Jiannan to plunder." Lan Ling stretched out his arms nonchalantly. "It's just a dying struggle. The envoys of the Tubo king can't wait, bow their heads and bow their heads. They are willing to serve our dynasty as a vassal forever, and call themselves the vassal king without mentioning the country."

"Haven't you done that before?"

"So it's a joke. Songtsan Gampo is a vassal. Of course his heirs are still vassals. There is no need to do it again." Lan Ling moved his wrist lightly, opened his mouth and motioned for me to pinch an almond and feed it to her, "It's okay or not Well, everyone can say soft words, but no one is willing to do soft things, they want food."

"Paid aid, change."

Lan Ling shook his head, "It's not enough right now. When things get chaotic, we'll see that the border is under too much pressure. It's not a problem to fight and kill people, let the big ones be white-eyed wolves, and not let the big dogs jump into the wall and rob them. .They were able to come down, but we couldn’t go up, and ran away after grabbing, there was nothing we could do.”

Laughed, remembered something, once watched a movie. "Wanted, stupid."

"Oh?"

"They won't be punished after robbing, they will definitely come back after getting the sweetness, and they won't be bothered a hundred times."

"Yeah, what should we do? If we can't catch it, shall we go up?"

"It's not worthwhile for us to go, let the Tibetans take care of the Tibetans. Whoever's tribe comes to rob them will be wanted, and anyone who is willing to destroy the plundering tribe will be provided with food as a reward. There is a rule that people from the tribe that caused the trouble must be brought In exchange for food, the leader leads his family to lead his subordinates, with 100 people as the starting point for rewards, the more people there are, the higher the rewards, it doesn’t matter if there is one hundred thousand or eighty thousand, there is no shortage of anything in Longyou, only labor.” Brother Chen wrote back two days ago Complaining, saying that the land is too big and the labor is not enough. Thousands of 800 people can't even see their shadows when they scatter in the field. Very hard.

Lan Ling chuckled, "What is 100 people as the starting point? Nonsense. Some small tribes don't have 100 people, should it be the same as yours? Are you not afraid that they will randomly grab some people to make up the number?"

"Stupid, that's the way it is said. Whoever he arrests, we will take it as it is. You give one hundred, and if he is jealous, he sends two hundred. How good is it? How many people can withstand such arrests?" It’s nothing more than chaos and chaos.” It seems that Lanling’s moral bottom line has not collapsed, and he always has the idea of ​​resentment, debtor and owner, which is wrong, and it is not in line with the professionalism of slave traders. "Jiannan is wanted if there is nothing to do. Those who are pulled by dogs are considered to be pulled by Tibetans. Count the looting suffered in the past 5000 years. If you see that tribe is not pleasing to the eye, you will be arrested. Any tribe that does not cooperate with my Tang Dynasty All of them are blacklisted, even one of the eighteen generations of his ancestors who has touched my Tang mare will be considered indecent, a wanted criminal, and will be sent to Longyou for labor reform."

Lanling laughed and struggled on the soft couch, "Worthless. How many times should you be dragged to Longyou? Well, let's do it like this. All the Tubo people who were taken back are counted as important criminals by the court, and the distribution is a distribution, but Human beings are regarded as government land, and if you want to use it with the approval of the government, you must have a mark. If you use it and die, you must have compensation.”

"You are immoral." Now, labor will be regarded as a rental tool of the government for the rest of your life, and there is no hope.Use them to death, this is not reform through labor, it is simply labor to death. "No, reform-through-labour prisoners can't be forced too hard. It's not okay to rebel twice in three days. Even when feeding donkeys and horses and rewarding black beans, give people hope. There is a system of rewards and punishments to build self-motivation. Don't we do well? are you happy?"

"Hehe..." Lan Ling got up and observed me for a long time.He smiled and said, "Benevolence."

"En!"

"Skinless and shameless." Lan Ling wrinkled his nose and pulled a pillow to lean on. "Your Nan Jinchang is going to Huainan?"

"Nonsense, slander!" Frowning, the inner government has developed into a secret service agency, and Lan Ling's ears are so disgusted by the matter discussed by several major shareholders.

"You can't hide it from me." Lan Ling smirked a few times, "Why are you nervous about asking? Nan Jinchang also has business dealings with the Neifu. It's not surprising if you know it. If you can make money from your family, you can also make money from the Neifu. Come to think of it, this business is getting bigger and bigger. It’s inconvenient to have money and goods.”

"What do you mean?"

"The small circle, that is, the shareholders of Sailing have spare money in their hands, and there is no place to use it. Starting a small business is also a way, isn't it?" Lan Lingtao fiddled with the big gemstone on his finger, word by word. Said: "The Neifu has taken your family's shares in Hualushui on Jiangnan Road, and they also have a business in Huainan. If you feel that it is inconvenient to bring money in the past, I can ask that side to provide convenience for your family."

"Oh?" He froze for a moment, then sat up like a corpse, "Say it clearly."

"How much money did you use to raise money in the past? It's a convenience. What's your expression?" Lan Ling was a little uncomfortable by my appearance, "It's safer than the escort agency without your escort. Give the money to the Neifu, and take the receipt from the Neifu to go over there to find them to cash the money. Let’s talk about it first, but I won’t give you the money for nothing. You have to have a share of how much you want to exchange. According to [-]% of the escort fee, Otherwise, it will be a loss."

"What kind of statement?"

"Doing business is not easy. The Neifu government intends to provide convenience to everyone under certain conditions. For shareholders such as sailing, the only way to enjoy such a discount is when the Neifu government has the ability. Not everywhere It works, it just so happens that Huainan can help, it's just a good deal." Lan Ling broke his fingers and said with a smile: "I don't want to hide it from you, I just use this method to slowly squeeze towards the country, and it's a good idea for the lively places everywhere. Pave the road first, and when the business comes in, others won’t be able to gossip about it.”

"Then why don't you just bring it to other families? It's too small for the shareholders of Voyage, and you don't get much profit." To seduce her a little bit, the concept in Lan Ling's heart is still very vague, just an unformed Thoughts, but I'm also very excited about it.These ideas all appeared naturally. The product of the market economy reached a certain level. Now it is just for the convenience of business, and it has not clearly pointed to profit. Lanling does not even have the idea of ​​profit.

"That won't work. Let them raise so much money, and the family can still support it. What should we do if we have gone twice and have no money?"

I smiled, took Lanling's hand and fondled it, happy. "Specially? To do this specifically?"

"Be careful when someone from the Escort comes to your door," Lan Ling also laughed, "He is a hard-working business, and even if he steals your job, he can't hit the Escort."

"Enen," that's what it said, anyway, even if the money bet is less, the Escort Bureau will not starve to death, it's just that the scope of business is narrowed down, but business transactions are much more convenient. "The [-]% of the Escort's charge is indeed a good deal, but let me remind you, if there are fewer customers, it is easier to withdraw the money, and the inner government has to bet the money to send it around."

"How's that?"

"Some people who came to Chang'an to do business went to Huainan to deposit in Chang'an, and some went to Huainan to do business in Chang'an to deposit in Huainan. Not to mention the balance of entry and exit, but the time for doing business is often short, and the time for taking land may not be just once. After the withdrawal, there will always be deposits and withdrawals, the big water flows into the small water, and there are surpluses in the banks on both sides, lest I give the money to the inner government in Huainan a few times, and you have to run to carry the darts yourself after the withdrawal." He said with a pen I drew a schematic diagram for Lanling, and the reason is very simple, "Look, you charge [-]% of the dart fee. According to my statement, you can't transport the money for a year. But [-]% of the dart is for nothing. What is the concept of silver? Comrade sister, it is better than robbery, you are black-hearted!"
