The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 109: Second salt and iron division


Renzong highly praised the scented tea, and ordered people to go to Yunyanhui to study in detail, and come back to study it. With the power of the court, he naturally quickly studied the technology thoroughly. At this time, Renzong also instructed the Salt and Iron Division to bring scented tea to the market.

Twenty-one cases in the three divisions, among which the tea case is in charge of the salt and iron division.

Due to the love of the official family and the ladies of the harem, the scented tea quickly became popular from top to bottom, and there was a wave of tea making in the Song Dynasty. Not only that, because the Song Dynasty at this time was the world economy Center, so the wind also quickly blew to other countries.

This is exactly what Renzong thought. Since the Song Dynasty mastered the secret of scenting and making scented tea, relying on the fact that other countries did not know it, they blew the cost of scented tea and sold the tea that was not cheap at a high price. Make a fortune in foreign trade.

Under such internal and external drive-up, even if the price of scented tea is extremely high, it is still in short supply.

After seeing such a scene, Renzong asked the people of the tea case to continue to innovate.

The people in the tea case are not bad, but the tea case is extensive and the tea case officials are working 360 days a year, going to various production and marketing areas to supervise and manage local tea affairs, and they are so busy that they can't touch their feet. land.

Under such circumstances, Renzong's increased income for them is also equivalent to increasing the burden, making them laugh or cry, not to mention innovation.

Everyone in the tea case wants to apply. This should be a special department. How can technology and administration be integrated into one?

However, it is so simple to set up a new department. No one has ever developed such a thing before.

For a while now, they had no choice but to go to Yun Yanhui for help.

How can Yun Yanhui go, not to mention that he still has something to do here, just before that, he turned down the secondment request from Dali Temple. If he agrees to Yantiesi now, what do you want Wen Yanbo to think? ?

So, Yun Yanhui declined the tea case again.

But the tea case is not the Dali Temple, they are rogues, and their purpose is stronger, they immediately ran to the official's house and rolled around.

The demolition is a major event ordered by the officials, but the tea issue is also a major event ordered by the officials. Speaking of which, we are more important, why don't you lend it to us?

Also, other people can do the demolition and relocation. Who will replace Yun Yanhui when it comes to flower tea?

When Renzong heard it, it really made sense!

The battle line between the demolition and the tourism festival is very long. Yun Yanhui has so many people under his control. He can spare some time to help the tea case.

——This means that before Yun Yan returned, Wen Yanbo was sure that it was impossible for Wen Yanbo to seek evidence from Renzong.

Therefore, Yun Yanhui had no choice but to pack up and go to the Salt Iron Division.

From this day on, he will be seconded to the tea case of Shiotetsui.

However, what Yun Yan didn't expect was—

Yunyan returned to work on the first day, and the tea case sent a small official to pick him up at Kaifeng Mansion.

Yun Yanhui followed him all the way to the tea case, and was stunned when he saw Zhao Yunchu riding a horse from the other side.

After he was in the palace that day, he didn't expect Zhao Yunchu for several days.

At that time, Zhao Yunchu claimed to be crying for a few days, and Yun Yan felt awkward when she returned to her heart.

At first sight, Yun Yanhui realized that the embarrassing feeling was still lingering in her heart...

However, the street was open and open, and there was no shelter. Yun Yanhui couldn't hide. He could only stand there awkwardly, watching Zhao Yunchu come over on horseback.

Zhao Yunchu was wearing an ink-colored cloak, and the spring breeze was blowing on his face, but there was no expression on his face. His eyes flickered when he saw Yun Yan who was standing at the gate of Yantiesi.

He rides his horse to approach.

A horse is a good horse, especially its tall body, so Zhao Yunchu, sitting on the horse's back, looked a little condescending. He lowered his head and looked down, his eyes were as deep as ink. With Yunyan back.

Against the light, Yun Yan glanced back at him, and felt that his silent appearance made her heart palpitate.

Yun Yanhui almost didn't dare to speak, which is rare, especially when facing Zhao Yunchu, who is usually the one who takes the initiative. But today's Zhao Yunchu looks a little gloomy and a little oppressive...

“…Xiaochu?”

Yun Yan shouted back hesitantly, and Zhao Yunchu had a sweet smile on his face, lying on the back of the horse, the height immediately dropped, and the sense of oppression disappeared, "Brother Yan, why are you here? where?"

Smile is so sweet.

Yunyan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. He thought to himself, it was probably just an illusion, maybe because Zhao Yunchu was wearing black clothes today and he was in a relatively high place - it's all because of this child who eats too much and grows so tall!

Thinking like this, Yun Yan Hui felt at ease.

"Oh...I was seconded to the tea case of Yantiesi." Yunyan explained back, "How about you, why are you here?"

It stands to reason that Dali Temple has nothing to do with the tea case, right?

Zhao Yunchu was silent for a while, "Because, Dali Temple... is right next to it."

This is embarrassing...

Yunyan Hui was a little embarrassed. He had never been to Dali Temple. Because Zhao Yunchu was too diligent, he basically ran to Kaifeng Mansion, so he knew where Dali Temple was in his mind, but when he walked The salt iron secretary did not respond for a while and a half.

"Haha... I'm so dizzy, I forgot." Yun Yan replied with a dry smile.

Fortunately, Zhao Yunchu didn't seem to be very concerned. He smiled and said again: "Yes, Brother Yan has been very busy recently. I heard from Wen Siqing that there have been a lot of things going on in the resettlement place outside the imperial city. "

Yunyan replied: "..."

Another embarrassment, Zhao Yunchu's words are simply too much to make up for the knife. He didn't take time out of "so busy" things and went to Yantiesi to help!

Fortunately, the clerk in the unknown tea case next to him said very thoughtfully: "That's right, it's not easy for us to borrow Brother Yun, and our judges all went to the official's house, and we were almost not in the palace. It's just that I borrowed him!"

Zhao Yunchu said thoughtfully: "Really?"

Yunyan replied: "..."

When he saw Zhao Yunchu's expression, he felt a little nervous again. Did this little official excuse him, or did he inspire Zhao Yunchu?

Yun Yan was a little tangled in reply. Zhao Yunchu said that he would just cry for a few days. Is it okay? Or a little longer?

Zhao Yunchu: "Then you judges have done a good deed. You are so close, you can have dinner together in the future."

Zhao Yunchu's expression is very cheerful and natural.

Yunyan looked back and was relieved, um, this should be no problem, with my eyesight, I can see it!

"Okay... Actually, I'm planning to bring a cook from Kaifeng Mansion." Yun Yan replied.

The tea case's little official's eyes widened immediately. In fact, he had already heard how good the public chef of Kaifeng Mansion was, but at the same time, he also had the pride of being a tea case person.

The three divisions can be said to be the most wealthy department and the department that manages money, and the tea case is an important department among them. Therefore, their treatment is also extraordinary, after all, they are also very tired.

Under such circumstances, would it be a bit embarrassing to have a special yearning for the cafeteria of Kaifeng Mansion...?

"This...actually... our public chef is actually very good." After politely paying respect to his department, the clerk said immediately, "But I heard that the food in the cafeteria of Kaifeng Mansion has a different flavor!"

Yunyan smiled back, "Don't worry, I'll bring you to eat when the time comes."

The little official suddenly showed a happy expression, but he couldn't say...

Yunyan recalled something at this time, and took out a box of tea from the bag. This box of tea was packaged with blue paper, and the paper was embedded with tea leaves. The paper was made a few years ago. It works well now.

He handed it to Zhao Yunchu and said, "I only have so much on me now, scented tea, jasmine, give the princess a try, and I'll get some for you next time."

Zhao Yunchu was a little surprised when he saw it, "So many?"

A lot? Not much.

For Yun Yanhui, it's really not much. The imperial court has tea, but it won't come to him. This is a special case for Renzong, just like the wine before.

But this matter still needs to be kept secret. Only the high-level officials know about the tea case. Everyone else only knows that he has researched on scented tea, but they don't know the root cause. So Yun Yanhui said politely in front of others, "Don't look at where I'm being borrowed now."

Zhao Yunchu was very familiar with him. After seeing his expression, he was silent for a while, and then he understood in his heart, his eyes darkened, and he only said that he had not met Yunyan for a long time, and said with a smile: "That's right, My aunt is liking this tea recently, thank you Brother Yan."

"Thank you, what's the relationship between us." Yun Yan said with a casual laugh, feeling a little out of place after speaking.

Zhao Yunchu also smiled and said nothing.

Yun Yan felt a little bit of a smirk in a trance, but now she is facing the light, and after a closer look, it is gone. It is still that silly and sweet smile. I still wanted to report, so I said goodbye: "I still have to find Shangguan to report, see you later."

"Okay, let's have dinner together at noon?" Zhao Yunchu invited.

"Hmm... Okay, let's eat together, I haven't eaten the public chefs elsewhere." Although Yun Yanhui no longer doubted it, he also consciously or unintentionally understood it as a group activity, while saying , waved his hand, and walked into the salt iron company.

Zhao Yunchu straightened up, the horse under him raised its hoofs impatiently, he lightly clamped the horse's belly, urged the horse forward, and said softly, "Okay, see you later."
