Chapter 60
After listening to Huo Jing's words, Lu Weimang thought about it carefully, then looked up at the young general again.Although he was too young compared to most of the court officials like Qinhou, he was noble and trusted by the emperor.Regardless of ability, status, or vision, they are all among the best in Kyoto.Otherwise, the emperor would not let him go out to lead the army to fight as a young man, and he would not hand over the answer sheet that left everyone in the capital speechless.
Huo Jing saw that Lu Weimang's eyes changed from being suspicious to firm, and he also looked at her without blinking.
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Lu Weimang was the first to show a smile, "My luck is really good. Since you said so, I will tell you about my plan, and you can refer to it. With your help , then it is really like a godsend.”
Next, Lu Weimang explained in detail the information and speculation he had checked these days.
"Qin Hou wants to change the plight of the empty treasury. In addition to the land and tax reforms he proposed, there is another way, that is, open source. Of course, not only open source in Dagan, but directly open source."
"External? It's bitter cold in the north, and Youzhou is thousands of miles to the north, and there are thousands of miles of uninhabited people. It faces the sea in the east and Jiaozhi in Nanyue in the south. If you open the source to the outside world, I'm afraid you have to wait. Wherever the army goes, the security of the source can be guaranteed. But in turn, the treasury is empty, which prevents the court from sending troops, which is a deadlock."
Huo Jing frowned.
Lu Weimang shook his head, "The places you mentioned are indeed difficult, so I'm talking about the southwest."
"southwest?"
Huo Jing frowned.
"It's true that there is no need for a large army to overwhelm the land in the southwest. But where the miasma is rampant and the roads are impassable, how can we open up new sources of income?"
Lu Weimang smiled mysteriously, "What you said is indeed difficult. But if there are enough interests, these are not problems."
"I checked some information in the Ministry of Households in the past few days, and found that Fanxian County and Jiangyuan Prefecture in Yizhou County and Kunze Prefecture in Yizhou County are rich in tea, and this tea is also quite famous in Kyoto. This shows that, Although the roads are difficult, there are still some commercial roads going in and out. Also, today I walked around the South City and Taxation Street, and found that most of the BMWs in Jingdu Mashi come from Shu County and Wudu County in Yizhou County. And In the past year, some novel gems have appeared in Beijing, such as turquoise, etc., and they have gradually become popular. This shows that although Yizhou County is a place of exile in the eyes of the people of Kyoto, the economy is definitely not weak. Such a bitter cold It is a remote place, but it has a prosperous economy and produces many precious medicines, BMWs, gold, gemstones, and many other good things. What does this mean? It means that there is a business route that is small, broad, and profitable. Moreover, it is precisely because of the difficult roads in Yizhou. Okay, as long as Dagan can hold this business route in his hands, whether it is directly taking over or collecting taxes, the annual income will be much more than the salt tax."
When Lu Weimang talked about what he was good at, he and Huo Jing no longer felt the usual uncomfortable feeling, and began to talk freely, as if he was holding a wisdom pearl, his eyes were bright and firm, and people couldn't move their eyes.
After Lu Weimang finished speaking, he looked at Huo Jing, but Huo Jing seemed to shake his head, and then said, "You have a plan in mind, so how do you plan to let me help you?"
Lu Weimang smiled a little embarrassedly, she was going to get in touch with the horse seller and the shopkeeper Yu, and figured out how they purchased the goods, and then slowly figured it out, but now Huo Jing appeared and hugged his thick thighs , Of course, you don't have to be so cautious, you can attack with a straight ball, and everything is for the big work, maybe those merchants will be grateful to Lu Weimang for giving them this opportunity.
"Your soldiers and horses are not very far away from Yizhou. Can you send troops to visit this trade route? As long as you find out the route, whether you are doing business or setting up customs to collect taxes in the future, the revenue of the court will be greatly increased. In addition On the one hand, right now I have two clues about the character of the trade route, which I can hand over to you, you can find out and confirm them, I believe this plan can be better implemented.”
After hearing this, Huo Jing was a little silent, and waited for a while before saying, "There are too few talents in the court who are good at business affairs. If this business route is in the hands of the court, it is impossible to say, and you will be sent to take charge of the overall situation. After all, your wealth The name is the first choice in the eyes of the Holy One. Of course it is good to go up to the sky, but the bitter cold in Yizhou is difficult to overcome just because of the difficulty of walking, and you may not be able to endure those hardships."
Lu Weimang waved his hands again and again after hearing this, "I may not have made it clear that this business route does not require talent at all, and it is enough to have force to ensure your own safety, because this business route is a monopoly business, so you don't need to use your brain."
Huo Jing looked at Lu Weimang with some doubts.
Lu Weimang quickly explained, "Because the Qiang people near Yizhou are located in the plateau and the weather is cold, they can only eat meat to keep out the cold. But their food of fishy meat cannot be eaten without tea; the heat of highland barley cannot be understood without tea, and they use tea as a food." "Indispensable for one day" is a necessity for survival. However, the plateau area where the Qiang people live has never produced tea. Think about it, the trade route there is difficult. That is, what we say, we have to do it?"
When Huo Jing heard this, his eyes became brighter.
Lu Weimang continued, "Of course, we can't force it too hard. It's better to set the price uniformly. Use the special products of the Qiang people in exchange for the tea that keeps them alive. For example, the precious medicines produced by the Qiang people are worth a thousand dollars in Kyoto, and BMW, Gold and precious stones are all popular products in Kyoto. To be honest, although the national treasury is empty, there is no shortage of gold and silver in the treasury of the nobles who followed the emperor to fight. There are also big merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, they are not short of money. The good things of the Qiang people, wouldn’t it be great to take out the gold and silver that they put in the silver treasury that was full of bugs? Moreover, in order to speed up the progress, you can let His Majesty and Qin Hou publicize one or two things in the capital. For example, Your Majesty is unwell. The precious medicine of the Qiang nationality can cure the disease. In that way, the precious medicine of the Qiang nationality, which is worth thousands of gold, will definitely be expensive in Luoyang for a while. Needless to say, BMW, gold and silver, there are also gemstones of the Qiang nationality, which can be worn by the queen and empress at the banquet Show your face, in this way, there is no need to say anything, these noble ladies and noble ladies in Beijing will be able to buy all the Qiang gems. And these Qiang precious medicine gems must be in your own hands at that time. Doujin, maybe even a little salt tax is not worth it."
Lu Weimang's words became more lively here, and Huo Jing's eyes became brighter and brighter.After Lu Weimang finished speaking, he went to see Huo Jing again, and was almost burned by the brightness in his eyes.
"Are you buying jewelry today to pave the way for the future?"
Huo Jing asked suddenly.
Lu Weimang scratched his cheek with his fingers, "Not all of them, women can't resist the temptation of gems. So, I bought some by the way."
Huo Jing smiled, "Do I need to reimburse you?"
Lu Weimang was at a loss, "Huh? Isn't this bad?"
Huo Jing leaned on the back of the chair, supported the table with both hands, and seemed to be in a good mood suddenly, "You think too much. It's not that I will reimburse you, but after you report your plan to His Majesty, let His Majesty give it to you." Reimbursement. Don't worry, although the national treasury is empty, your majesty has fought wars for many years, and there are still some good things in the private treasury, such as night pearls the size of eggs, oriental pearls, corals, etc., are all good things to pay tribute to. Tomorrow I will take you there Explain this plan to His Majesty face to face, and by the way, I will ask you for some good things, and I can't let you spend your efforts and money in vain."
Lu Weimang nodded hesitantly, "Then I'll leave it to General Huo?"
"Okay, after talking so much, are you hungry?" Huo Jing said something and clapped his hands. Outside the door, Ding Yi and Lin Chen led Xiao Er to file in and put the dishes on the table.
Lu Weimang was a little surprised just now, why the food was served so slowly today, it seems that he was stopped by Ding Yi and Lin Chen who were guarding the door.
Lu Weimang was a little sour again.When will the general of the Lu family have this ability and heart?
Seeing that Lin Chen and Ding Yi were about to leave after serving the dishes, Lu Weimang quickly called out, "Lin Chen, Ding Yi, sit down and eat together. There are quite a lot of dishes, and the two of us may not be able to finish them all."
Ding Yi didn't move, Lin Chen glanced at his master, then at Lu Weimang, "Miss Lu, you are welcome. We two brothers are going to eat now, you and master can enjoy it."
After finishing speaking, the two of them left the room and closed the door carefully.
Lu Weimang looked at Huo Jing, Huo Jing picked up the chopsticks, "Eat quickly, I wanted to bring you to dinner, but now it's almost supper."
After Huo Jing finished speaking, he picked some food for Lu Weimang and ate it by himself.
Etiquette is standard, and the movements are gentle, but the eating speed seems to be quite fast?
Seeing Huo Jing start eating, Lu Weimang picked up the bowl and started eating.She is really hungry.
For a while, the two of them didn't speak any more, and they both ate with chopsticks, and I ate with chopsticks.
Lu Weimang seemed to understand a little bit, why some people like to invite people to dinner when they are in a relationship.Everyone eats, as if there is no distance at once.
At first, Lu Weimang said he couldn't finish the meal, but Huo Jing's appetite was unexpectedly large, let alone Lu Weimang himself.Her stomach is open to eat, it is a bottomless pit.
There is no way, her natural supernatural power consumes her body all the time, so Lu Weimang is the envy of countless girls who can't eat fat.Not only will you not gain weight if you eat less, you will soon become emaciated.Father Lu once ridiculed Lu Weimang, saying that with his salary, he could only feed his daughter Lu Weimang with simple tea and light food.
Fortunately, she can make money by herself, not only to support herself.And raise a family.
After eating, the two rode slowly, digesting while sending Lu Weimang home, followed by the solemn and quiet black armored guards.
Lu Weimang felt a little uncomfortable, "General Huo, in fact, I'll just go back by myself."
Huo Jing looked over with indifferent eyes, Lu Weimang immediately turned serious, "Then I will trouble you."
