The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 120: Go, go to the yard to scan the goods
Renzong hinted that Yun Yanhui wanted him to go on a business trip. Yun Yanhui recalled in his mind what he knew about the market in an instant.
The market is a place for trade between the two countries. Its existence is relatively sensitive and it has a strong political character. The present Kuichang was proposed by the Liao Kingdom during the Tanyuan Alliance, to establish a Kuichang at the border with the Song Dynasty to conduct trade. In this regard, it is indeed the Liao Kingdom that is more eager for Song's products.
In this kind of market trade, both the official and the private sector can participate, but under the strict control of the government, the government has priority. If private merchants want to enter the market to conduct transactions, they must obtain approval and pay commercial taxes.
Getting rich taxes is on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also to control the flow of some important domestic materials to foreign countries. The goods in the market must be inspected before they can be sold.
The state has to guarantee, but businessmen are profit-seekers. Driven by strict control and the desire to evade taxes, smuggling trade emerges one after another.
Renzong said that businessmen colluded with officials to smuggle tea, which actually reflected a big phenomenon, that is, the current smuggling situation is very serious. Kuichang, a commodity distribution center, has become the most lively place for smuggling because of the gathering of merchants.
The judging system of the Song Dynasty was not perfected until the Southern Song Dynasty. There are still gaps in the current juicy market, which led to the situation that Renzong said, smugglers colluded with officials.
As for what Renzong said, the popularity of scented tea has led to competition from various countries. Yun Yanhui felt that it was time to move out the system that countless transcendental predecessors had used - auction.
All countries compete to bid, and the one with the highest price will win. At the same time, I have to express my regret that because I have a good relationship with everyone, I don't want to hurt the peace, so I give you the right to choose and let you choose...
In this way, it must be the one with the most powerful economy, occupying the bulk, and others can't protest even if they can't buy it, and the price is the most beneficial to Da Song within the range that the other party can afford.
Renzong couldn't help saying, "Shameless!"
Yunyan replied: "...Thank you for the compliment?"
Official family, which side are you on? Don't you brag about my wild goose at this time?
It was only then that Renzong realized that he couldn't help but speak his mind, "Cough cough, very good, sure enough, it's right to call you here. Yunyan back, I'm going to order someone to visit the farm, and the farm must be cleaned up. . You also go with you to promote the auction and assist in the investigation - after all, it involves flower tea. In fact, it is precisely in the name of promoting the auction to secretly investigate the case."
Yunyan returned weakly and said: "The official family...I have no opinion on what you said, but is there any subsidy for the dispatch?"
Yun Yanhui is really not afraid of going on business. I think back then, he spent 365 days a year, at least 250 days. However, he was subsidized when he went out for interviews back then, especially when he went to the countryside and during holidays.
Renzong looked at him half-smile.
Yun Yanhui was stared at Mao, "...Then let me take my family to the head office? The border is so chaotic, I will take someone to protect me."
Since I'm going to the border dungeon, can I not bring milk and dps?
"Am I such a stingy person?" Renzong raised his chin.
"..." Yun Yan was speechless, thinking that I'm relying on me, I should have said it earlier, then you still look at me like that, making me think I'm too far ahead, just want to see people cowardly? I didn't expect you to be such an official!
Renzong said: "Is it enough to double your salary tenfold while you are out? After the event is completed, there will be another reward."
Yun Yanhui nodded vigorously, "Which market is that?"
There are many farms between Song and Liao, most of them are in Hebei.
Sure enough, Renzong replied: "Hebei West Road, Ansu Army."
.
Yunyan went back out of the palace, and saw Zhao Yunchu hugging Zhao Yundi's waist, Zhao Yundi's hands were like Hot Wheels, and he wanted to scratch Zhou Huilin who was standing opposite. However, because his younger brother was born with divine power, seeing that Zhou Huilin was not far away, he couldn't scratch anyone, and was so anxious to die.
Yunyan thought to herself, what is this, a primary school student?
Zhou Huilin stood indifferently opposite Zhao Yundi, saying something, and when she saw Yun Yanhui appear, she stopped.
Yun Yanhui wanted to pretend she didn't see anything and walked away, because it seemed a bit embarrassing to say that she knew the two of them.
Zhao Yundi has been calling for Zhao Yunchu to let him go, but unfortunately to no avail. When he saw Yunyan returning, he shouted at him, "Brother Yan, you tell my brother to let me go!"
Yunyan walked over slowly, "Are you sure?"
Zhao Yundi: "Otherwise?"
Yun Yan replied seriously: "That's right, I think after he lets you go, you may be beaten by Zhou Huilin and then go in again." He also pointed to the palace behind him.
Zhao Yundi: "..."
Zhao Yundi argues, "That's because my **** is hurt now!"
Yunyan replied: "..."
Wow, what a reason to have a face...
Zhao Yundi said angrily: "And isn't it with you? Do you want to stand by and watch?"
"Brother, have you figured out, it's still in the palace now!" Zhao Yunchu said quietly, "What can we do?"
Zhao Yundi put down his hands angrily and said to Zhou Huilin: "You are lucky, wait, I will **** you back."
Yun Yan back to cover her eyes: What's wrong with people now? Does this count as revenge?
Zhou Huilin pulled out a mocking smile, turned around and left without saying a word, but that expression made Zhao Yundi so angry that when he turned around, he saw Yun Yanhui and Zhao Yunchu couldn't bear to look directly, and vowed to say: " I will be ashamed..."
"The official wants me to go on a business trip." Yun Yanhui quickly interrupted him and threw a topic to divert his attention.
Zhao Yunchu's eyes widened slightly, "Where should I go?"
Yunyan replied: "Hebei West Road, go to the tea farm, some tea."
Zhao Yundi: "Then you remember to buy pearls for me..."
Yun Yanhui still admires Zhao Yundi's psychological quality. He had to fight with Zhou Huilin just now. When he said that he was going to the market, he quickly turned his attention to buying pearls.
What Zhao Yunchu cares about is another aspect, "It's a long journey, plus the time to do things, doesn't it take several months to come and go?"
"It should be, but I don't know when to set off and the specific regulations. Now the official family has expressed an intention, and it needs to be officially issued." It stands to reason that if it is to handle a case, then each of the Song Dynasty has this function. All the yamen have a time limit for handling cases, and they must be resolved within a time limit. For example, it is about 40 days in Dali Temple.
Yun Yan said so, with no trace of sadness on her face to leave home.
Zhao Yunchu sighed indifferently, "Brother Yan has always put work first."
I don't know why, Yun Yanhui felt a little embarrassed, "Ah, anyway, the government pays money for tourism... If you don't go, you won't go. Look, I'm so old, and I haven't been out of Kaifeng yet. Where is the government?"
There was a little smile on Zhao Yunchu's face, "That's right."
Yun Yanhui breathed a sigh of relief, bid them farewell and left the palace.
Back home, Yun Yan announced again that he was going on a business trip.
Zheng Ping was a little surprised and worried when she heard it, but because of the fact that Xiaobao went out before, and Yun Yanhui had always performed well, she didn't scream, but subconsciously said: "Would you like to take Shuang Yi? Take it?"
"A-niang said that I went to my heart, and I have this plan." Yun Yan smiled back, "I want to take Xiaobao and Shuangyi with me."
Xiaobao wasn't here, but Shuangyi was at home. She was very surprised, "Can I go too?"
Yun Yanhui has never travelled far, so why not Shuangyi. These days, there are so many people who have never travelled far in their lives.
"Yes, the scenery over there is not very good, but it is a good shopping place. If you buy directly from the Liao people, it is much cheaper than buying in Beijing. Speaking of this, what do you need? Hurry up and make a list, and then we will buy it back." Yun Yan turned back to the cheerful side.
This opportunity is rare. The imperial court forbids envoys to buy goods in the Liao Dynasty, but there is no rule that they are not allowed to buy things on business trips at border gates. However, going to the border gates to buy things is different from buying things in the Liao Kingdom. There are various factors such as the distance. Adding it up, it's not much worse. This is an open and honest opportunity to sweep the goods.
Speaking of scavenging, the two women were really excited, chatting about what to buy.
"Buy a mink! Buy a mink!" Yun Yan urged back.
Liao's leather goods are also special products, and the quality is very good. Yun Yanhui strongly suggested, "When the time comes, Shuangyi wears a mink and accompanies me to barbecue. Do you think I have to make a gold chain?"
"What's the point of this?" Shuang Yi didn't quite understand the picture depicted by Yun Yanhui, "Why don't we wear it together, Brother Yan suits white."
"Haha, OK, OK, I'll peel the garlic for you..." Yun Yan replied.
"I don't like to eat." Shuang Yi wrinkled her nose, "You can peel it off for Zhao Yunchu."
Yun Yan Hui almost exploded on the spot, "What did you say?"
Shuang Yi inexplicably looked at Brother Yan who was suddenly a little excited, "...he's the only one left, even if you peel an oil-stealing insect, he'll eat it."
"..." Yun Yanhui was inexplicably guilty and relieved.
Under the guidance of Yun Yanhui, his family didn't feel any sadness. Instead, he asked relatives and friends if they needed to buy on behalf of others, and made a shopping list. There are three of them, two men, and a woman whose fighting power is higher than that of the men. They can bring a lot of things.
After a few days, Yun Yan didn't know what to say.
Because of a decree from the official family, he discovered that the leading official who went to the market to negotiate errands was actually Dali Temple Zheng, a good friend of mankind, Zhao Yunchu!
Although Zhao Yunchu was an official of Dali Temple, but since there were many other officials of Dali Temple in the past, including envoys, book repairs, etc., it is not uncommon to point to officials of Dali Temple. What's more, the real purpose is to investigate the case.
But why is it Zhao Yunchu? Yun Yanhui had always thought that it would be an "old bird", but it was a bit unexpected for the official family to use it!
