I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 586

"Luoyi Daily News?" Is this a report from Luoyang?

Zhao Xi caught a glimpse of the header by accident, only to realize that it was not Bianliang's return.

As if he had discovered something, Zhao Xi began to rummage through all the things that the Imperial City Secretary had cleaned up these days.

"Official...~Official..."

Wang Zhongzheng thought that something was wrong again, so he shouted timidly.

"By the way, Zhongzheng, among the newspapers collected in recent days, besides Bianliang, which state capitals are there?"

"Going back to the government's home, the farthest places are Chengdu, Guangzhou, and Quanzhou, and the closest ones include Jingzhao Prefecture, Qinzhou Prefecture, etc. Almost all states and prefectures have arrived, or the prefectures that have Cuju competitions have arrived. newspaper industry."

Wang Zhongzheng thought that the government needed these again, so he prepared to take out a small notebook from his armband, and he memorized which state capitals had arrived.

Ever since he was in the old guard camp, he has followed the official advice: a good memory is not as good as a bad pen.The mind is getting more and more careful...

"Xuancao and Gao, the two Taiweis...Forget it, go back to the inner garden and call Zhao Qin for me."

Zhao Xi originally wanted to learn about the situation from Cao Gao and the two Taiweis, but remembered that he still had such a spokesperson...

Wang Zhongzheng was carrying a stack of papers... Fortunately, the officials only randomly selected a few copies, otherwise the entire guard of honor would have to be reported.

The edict of the official summons had already been conveyed to Zhao Qin by the inner eunuch, and Zhao Qin was waiting in her own Zimingxuan...~ She was still of no rank after all, but because she was the spokesperson of the inner court, she had a separate palace .

Compared with the three sisters at the beginning, she was the luckiest, and was not imprisoned by the entire palace wall.

Zhao Qin also understands where all of her comes from, and she is absolutely loyal to the official family.

"I have seen the official family..."

"Xiaoqin, let me ask you, do you know these things?"

Zhao Xi pointed to the report in Wang Zhongzheng's arms... At this time Wang Zhongzheng put the report on the desk.

"Returning to the official's house, all the prefectures and counties of the country, where there are Cuju competitions, have opened the report. Because the leader of the Cuju competition is the old six, the entire country and the dynasty, the old six have participated, and all the places The same goes for returns.”

"Let's not talk about this for the time being. I want to know about the delivery of reports to the state capitals of the country. For example, how did the "Cuju Express" and "Shi Lun" in Bianliang reach other state capitals?"

"Official...official...this is all paid by the trading company..."

Zhao Qin thought that this matter touched a certain taboo of the officials, so he hesitated, her voice was so low that she could hardly hear it.

"What are you thinking? I'll ask how you passed it on!"

Only then did Zhao Qin look up at the official's house...it didn't look like she was angry.Then I sorted out my ideas and began to say: "Officials, the earliest demand for "Cuju Express" in Gyeonggi-do, Jingdong, and Jingxi Road was particularly large. The company's own transportation was beyond its capabilities, so it reached an agreement with rail transportation. Money, the passenger and cargo carriages that travel on the rails, help the trading company to bring the report to the two places.”

"Later, due to the reduction in the cost of reimbursement, the demand increased, and it was almost necessary to occupy a rail carriage every day. The trading company signed a contract with the rail side. We did not use the court rail car for nothing..."

"Well, you continue..."

"Later, all the state capitals had Cuju teams and Cuju competitions. The original Pumai stalls selectively opened games in other state capitals, which led to Bianliang also needing to know other A cuju competition in the state capital."

"Later, the Cuju Association planned to organize Cuju competitions across the country, which resulted in the need for Cuju to arrive and report to Manchu Dynasty. In the end, the trading company coordinated with the rail side to ensure that the rail carriage added a carriage for the arrival and delivery at any time. ..."

After all, Zhao Qin was regarded as a master among the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty. Although he was a little afraid of the officials, he could speak smoothly.

"Xiaoqin, how much does the company spend on shipping every year?"

"There are too many! Not only the rail carriages, but also the Water Transport Yamen Trading Co., Ltd. also has a contract. The trading company bought the printing process and equipment in the workshop city, and most of the reduced costs are subsidized for transportation."

"Officials, I have always listened to what the officials say. In business and business, I have never bullied others. Not to mention our family, even the old six families have obeyed. The two Taiwei also said that the money must be earned together, and the country cannot be full. The six of us have a good life."

"The two Taiwei also said that all the new industries in the country belong to the officials, but the officials still give these industries to the court, and those who should send ministers and workers. This is the sage king. model of..."

These two sentences are pleasant to hear, and Zhao Xi also listens to them.

At this time, Zhao Qin didn't look like a big business man, she was completely a little girl, as if she was acting like a baby with her family.

"Zhongzheng, go back to the queen, I will stay here tonight..."

The official's words made Zhao Qin's mind completely put aside business matters, and she didn't know how to let go of her excited hands and feet. She was too busy to wait for the official's rest...~
Zhao Xi is really not because of that...

"Xiaoqin, what I mean is that if, if the business company is allowed to contract the country's post delivery...~ The contract is to pay some fees to the court every year, complete the necessary functions of the court, operate independently, and be responsible for its own profits and losses. Can the business company support the entire post? Delivery system? Of course, it refers to post stations in non-state capitals, and refers to those Budifu and Madifu."

Zhao Qin was stunned, and didn't know what to say for a while, she thought the officials were testing her, but it didn't look like it.

Well, she's thought about it a long time ago.There are many post stations in Guochao, and most of them are idle because of the appearance of the track.But the post station insisted on maintaining its official functions, not only the post horses were idle, but also the facilities of the post station were wasted.

Because the track laying is limited, it is impossible to run through all the counties and counties of the country, and their trading companies rely on their feet when transporting arrivals to the counties and counties. Sometimes they ride on ox carts and donkey carts, which is very untimely.

After having this idea, Zhao Qin also specially sent people to investigate the transmission of private letters and the delivery of small items.None of these can be borrowed from the rail network, let alone the post stations of the imperial court, and more are entrusted to the merchants to carry them along.

She felt that there were boundless business opportunities here, so she mentioned it in the trading company, but the two captains said that this matter was too big, and worried that it would not be easy to pass in the court.

At this time, the officials brought up...
"Officials, how about using the station for free with official credentials?"

Hearing this, Zhao Xi knew that Zhao Qin had considered this matter.

"It can be converted into the contracting fee of the imperial court...~You should plan carefully for this matter. If it can be achieved, it can be regarded as solving part of the expenditure for the imperial court. At the same time, it can also establish a separate transportation network that can extend to the transportation network of the country and the villages and towns."

From this point of view, there should be no need to explain business opportunities and prospects for trading companies.It seems that the merchants have considered this kind of thing, at least Zhao Qin has considered it.

Things have their inevitability of development... This is the ultimate truth.

With football, there are guilds, with Cuju Express, there is postal delivery, with sports games, there is gambling, and then there is the demand for the logistics industry.

It may be that interest is the accelerator of society.

When all the courts were paying attention to this private debate on politics, Zhao Xi thought of solving the matter of Guochao's support and post delivery from the arrival of the report... Is this not doing business properly?
