Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

"Song Shang!"

When all the officials heard this, they couldn't help but be in a trance!
Naturally, many officials had seen the article advocating for Song Dynasty merchants in the Di newspaper, but they all scorned it at the time and no one believed it.

After all, in the impression of many officials, businessmen are all profiteers who hoard and sell inferior goods. It is simply a fantasy to want them to follow the ideas of Song merchants.

Nowadays, a large number of grain merchants have brought affordable grain, which has directly subverted the original views of many officials.

"Has the businessman really changed his gender?"

Everyone looked in disbelief.

The leader of the grain merchants said solemnly: "Since ancient times, merchants have been discriminated against by the world, and profiteers accounted for most of the reasons. When the ideas of Song merchants spread, we were immediately ashamed. From today on, we are The merchants decided to pursue the philosophy of the Song Dynasty merchants and turn the merchants from a harm to the Song Dynasty into a benefit to the Song Dynasty. Starting from this flood, the world will re-recognize the merchants, and we can also serve the country."

"Okay! I am very pleased that you have the heart to serve the country." Fan Chunli said loudly.

"Thank you so much Mr. Fan for making it possible!"

All the grain merchants clasped their fists and said.

Now, as a number of grain dealers have shipped large amounts of affordable grain, grain prices in Yuncheng and even the entire disaster area have quickly stabilized.

"Song merchants! With this concept, merchants will do no harm!"

"How can a businessman have such good intentions?"

The merchants of the Song Dynasty implemented the philosophy of Song merchants and sent a large amount of affordable grain to the disaster areas, which immediately caused an uproar.

Merchants have always been the ones who take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the situation. It is not uncommon for merchants to take advantage of the situation and make people hate it. But now, the merchants have changed their temper and started to take the initiative to bring cheap food.

"Song Shang!"

When the news reached Kaifeng City, Zhao Xu was also shocked. He did not expect that the merchants had really made changes.

Fan Zheng sneered at the side and said: "Do the officials really think that many grain merchants are the core merchants? The officials can think about it, who has the most grain in their hands?"

"Scholar-official?"

Zhao Xu suddenly woke up. The Song Dynasty did not suppress land annexation. A lot of land was concentrated in the hands of scholar-bureaucrats. It was not so much that the previous grain merchants were black-hearted profiteers, but it was better to say that they were greedy scholar-bureaucrats behind them.

Sometimes the price of grain sold by grain merchants is high, rather than the price of grain purchased. In this era, transportation is not convenient and requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Naturally, grain prices are rising.

"How can Fan Taicheng guarantee that this is not a disguise by these merchants, just to let the imperial court establish the Ministry of Commerce." Zhao Xu frowned. The prejudice against merchants since ancient times has made him unable to let down his guard against merchants.

Fan Zheng laughed and said: "So what about disguise? Who in the world has no selfish motives? As long as they can send cheap food to the disaster area and share the worries of the court, as long as the officials praise such behavior, it will naturally attract countless merchants to follow suit." , by that time, the ideas of Song merchants had spread throughout the Song Dynasty, and the harm done by merchants was gone."

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, no matter what the motives of these merchants were?As long as the imperial court takes advantage of this situation and allows countless merchants to follow suit, the Song Dynasty's business philosophy will surely become popular in the world.

On the other hand, if the court ignores the merchants' efforts to share the country's worries, no one will be willing to send affordable food to the disaster-stricken areas in the future.

"Pass this message to praise the grain merchants who went to the disaster area to deliver cheap grain!" Zhao Xu said with a big wave of his hand.

It's just verbal praise. It's a favor without any expense, so why not do it.

"The officials are wise!" Fan Zhenggong said.

As the imperial court praised a number of grain merchants, it immediately caused an uproar among the merchants.

People in the world are not afraid of doing good deeds, but they are afraid that good deeds will not be good. Now a group of grain merchants are transporting affordable grain to the disaster areas, which immediately attracts praise from the officials, which greatly cheers up the merchants.

"We can start the second step of the plan. Yizhuang is about to start collecting donations for the disaster area!" Fan Zheng said solemnly to Fan Sanming in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.

"Thank you for your advice, boss!" Fan Sanming said solemnly.

After several years of development, the scale of Yizhuang has become quite large, covering all roads in the Song Dynasty. It is also helping victims of disasters and helping the extremely poor to tide over difficulties.

Whenever there was a major disaster, Yizhuang would raise funds one after another and help the court solve problems. Especially during the first battle of Pingxia City, Yizhuang raised hundreds of thousands of donations for the court. This greatly relieved the imperial court's financial pressure.

Whenever a disaster breaks out, the medical charity will make donations. This is the case with the charity now due to the Yellow River floods.

The main contributors to charity donations every year are doctors. However, this time for the Yellow River floods, the doctors did not directly donate money. Instead, they donated a batch of medical supplies and went directly to the front line of the Yellow River floods.

"This time the doctors didn't donate. I don't know who donated first."

The people of Kaifeng were looking forward to it.

"In my opinion, it must be the Royal Bank! The Royal Bank makes a lot of money every day, let alone tens of thousands of dollars, even a donation of [-] dollars is just a drop in the bucket." A citizen guessed.

"No, the Royal Bank is under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. All profits need to be handed over to the imperial court. If money is needed, it can be directly allocated to pay for the Yellow River floods. Naturally, they will not make donations." A scholar shook his head.

He is familiar with the imperial court's specifications and procedures, so he naturally has a good understanding of the procedures of state-owned workshops, and he naturally knows the distribution of bank profits.

Moreover, the Royal Bank is owned by the royal family, so it will naturally not allow individuals to make donations to gain good reputation.

"In my opinion, it must be Fengle Restaurant. It is now the number one restaurant in the Song Dynasty, and the wine under its name is best-selling throughout the Song Dynasty, making a fortune every day." A commoner guessed.

"Fengle Tower donated a thousand dollars!"

Soon, the news of Fengle Tower's donation came, and many people nodded slightly. Fengle Tower donated a thousand guan. Although it was not much, it was not much, and it was considered satisfactory.

"Chunfeng Tower donates [-] yuan!"

"The Eight Immortals Tower donates [-] guan!"

........................

As news of donations spread one by one, countless merchants in Kaifeng City donated generously!Soon, Yizhuang received more than [-] yuan in donations.

"Shopkeeper, how much can we donate?"

In Sun Yangzheng's store, a waiter asked shopkeeper Sun.

Nowadays, major restaurants and large merchants are actively donating money, hoping to change the image of merchants and practice the philosophy of Song merchants.

"Wait!" Shopkeeper Sun said expressionlessly.

"What are you waiting for?" the guy asked confused.

Shopkeeper Sun said calmly: "Wait for Fan Sanming, Shopkeeper Fan!"

"Fan Sanming?" the waiter asked confused. "Fan Sanming has already joined the medical family. Besides, what the medical family is currently donating are medicines and doctors, who have already arrived at the front line of the flood."

Shopkeeper Sun shook his head and said: "Although Fan Sanming joined the medical family and became a drug dealer, he still had shares in the medical family. He brewed alcohol for the medical family and supplied it to the whole world. He made a lot of profits. Not to mention that Fan Sanming was a member of the Song Dynasty. He is the founder of the business, and his donation is crucial." The clerk suddenly thought thoughtfully.

"Why don't you hurry up and find out!" Shopkeeper Sun said loudly.

"Yes!"

The boy got the order and ran out immediately.

Soon, the boy from Sun Yangzheng store came in a hurry and reported: "To report to the shopkeeper, Fan Sanming donated [-] guan."

"Is this serious? Three thousand coins! Fan Sanming is crazy. This is probably most of his wealth." Shopkeeper Sun exclaimed.

The young man nodded solemnly and said: "It's absolutely true, this matter has been spread throughout Kaifeng City."

"Fan Sanming is so courageous!" Shopkeeper Sun thought for a moment and took a deep breath.

"Then let's..." the boy asked. Shopkeeper Sun just said that he wanted Fan Sanming to donate.

Shopkeeper Sun paced for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Sun Yangzheng store donated five thousand guan!"

"Five thousand strings!" the boy suddenly exclaimed.

You must know that Sun Yang Zhengdian is no longer the leading restaurant in the past. Both the drinks sold and the business of Sun Yang Zheng Dian are not as good as before. 5000 million yuan is probably the entire net worth of Sun Yang Zheng Dian and shopkeeper Sun. .

"Yes, I just want to use all my wealth to give it a try." Shopkeeper Sun said decisively.

With the popularity of pork, Sunyangzhengdian, which specializes in mutton, has long since declined. Even the liquor formula he bought at a high price has expired. Now that the liquor formula has been made public, the liquor produced by Sunyangzhengdian is selling rapidly. Now it is early It is no longer the grand occasion it once was.

But now if Sun Yang Zhengdian wants to make a splash, it must be unexpected. This charity donation is a God-given opportunity.

Soon, when the news came out that Sun Yang Zhengdian donated [-] yuan, Kaifeng City once again detonated.

"crazy!"

The people of Kaifeng were stunned. Although the doctor had donated tens of thousands of yuan before, that was because the doctor's family was so large in scale and size that the millions of yuan was nothing to it. Naturally, a donation of five thousand yuan from Sun Yang Zhengdian, which was in decline, was incomparable.

"Sun Yangzheng's donation of [-] guan is not that he only donated [-] guan, but that shopkeeper Sun only donated [-] guan!" a merchant sighed.

There are not many secrets in Kaifeng City, and everyone is aware of the situation in Sun Yangzhengdian, and Sun Yangzhengdian’s crazy behavior also amazed everyone.

Suddenly, the originally declining Sun Yang Zhengdian instantly became the focus of Kaifeng City.

"That's right! Speaking of which, I haven't been to Sun Yang's main store for a long time!" Many people in Kaifeng suddenly said.

It turns out that Sunyang Zhengdian is the leading restaurant in Kaifeng, and countless people have gone there to taste the delicious food. But now they realize that they have not been there for a long time.

"Go together! Go together!"

The companion on the side said happily.

Sun Yangzheng's store is now in the limelight, and the original reputation of Sun Yangzheng's store has aroused their interest. Suddenly, Sun Yangzheng's store is full of seats, and there are even many people waiting in line outside. This is Sun Yangzheng's store. It’s a grand occasion that the store hasn’t seen in a long time.

"I'm sorry, everyone. The small shop is full. Other restaurants are equally delicious. Please don't spend impulsively." Shopkeeper Sun apologized.

The diners waiting on the side did not care and said: "Shopkeeper Sun can impulsively donate, and we can naturally make impulsive purchases. Sun Yangzheng store is an old store in the Song Dynasty, so of course we will give our full support."

When Shopkeeper Sun saw this, he could only give a solemn salute helplessly to express his gratitude.

With the generous donations from Shopkeeper Sun and Fan Sanming, there was a wave of donations throughout the Song Dynasty, with wealthy businessmen, traffickers, and even brothel prostitutes all generously donating.

As the total amount of donations increased steadily, the entire Song Dynasty was shocked by the generosity of merchants.

The abnormal behavior of merchants naturally spread to the imperial court. First, it was the idea of ​​Song merchants, then affordable food, and now it was generous donations for disaster relief. The imperial court saw a very different business world.

"I wonder what your lords think of the merchant's actions!" Zhao Xu said loudly, looking around.

Su Song was the first to come out and said: "To inform the officials, the merchants of the Song Dynasty are currently abiding by the law and taking the initiative to stabilize food prices and donate money and materials. The court should praise them more."

There is nothing wrong with what Su Song said. After all, with the righteous actions of today's merchants, even the most stubborn old master cannot find any fault.

Yang Wei frowned and said: "What the prime minister said is reasonable, but you all know very well that the reason why merchants are so generous is because they have greater intentions, the Ministry of Commerce!"

As soon as Yang Wei said this, the whole court was silent.

The matter of the Ministry of Commerce has been controversial in the court for many days. There are those who are in favor and those who are against it. But now Song Shang's ideas are running rampant, which has reduced the harm to merchants to a minimum and greatly increased their profits.

"This is just a trick by the merchants! Please don't let the officials be deceived by it." Many ministers reported one after another.

According to their previous understanding of the merchants, these merchants would not have disguised themselves in this way if it were not for the purpose of establishing a commercial department.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he immediately fell into hesitation.

Seeing this, Fan Zheng asked in reply: "Do you think the behavior of the merchants is wrong? Or do you think merchants should hoard, love money as much as their lives, and drive up prices! Would you like to see such merchants or the original merchants?"

All the ministers fell silent immediately. Nowadays, the merchants who practice the Song Dynasty's business philosophy are simply impeccable, while the original merchants were beaten by everyone.

"Everyone wants to make progress, and so do merchants. Merchants do business, and the court collects taxes. This is only natural. The establishment of the Ministry of Commerce is a kind of protection for merchants. After all, the court collects money from merchants, right? Even street bullies know it. When it comes to collecting protection fees, is it possible that the government is worse than a street bully?" Fan Zheng sneered.

"Business tax?"

Zhao Xu took a deep breath. Business tax became the most important factor that changed him.

He has great talent and great strategy, and if he wants to unify the world, he must be inseparable from the support of money, and commercial tax is the top priority of the court. The establishment of the Ministry of Commerce is certainly a kind of protection for merchants, and it is also a guarantee for the increase of court tax. Not to mention that the current Song Shang made him overjoyed.

"Pass the decree, the imperial court begins preparations for the Ministry of Commerce!"

Zhao Xuzhong ordered.

"I will obey your orders!"

All the officials were shocked and bowed to accept the order.

The officials agreed to establish the Ministry of Commerce, which was both unexpected and reasonable. After all, the commercial tax in the Song Dynasty had reached [-]%, and the Song Dynasty's business philosophy fully cured the shortcomings of merchants.

However, the establishment of the seventh department of the imperial court did not happen overnight and took several months to establish.

Soon, the news of the imperial court's preparations came out, and the entire Kaifeng business community burst into tears of joy. Their merchants had been discriminated against by the world for thousands of years. Now that the imperial court had established the Ministry of Commerce, they finally had the opportunity to clear their name.

Suddenly, Yizhuang's donation increased by [-]% out of thin air. (End of chapter)
