I studied in modern times

Chapter 102 Zhang Dun is observing in secret [Four more 12000 characters ask for a monthly ticket! 】

Send to Zonghui and Gao Gongji.

Empress Dowager Xiang couldn't help blaming her a little bit.

"Sixth brother, you are too kind to the countrymen!" said the queen mother, "They are already extremely rich, and sixth brother does not need to take care of and favor them like this in the future!"

"Otherwise, the scholars and bureaucrats and ministers of the outer court will say that the mother-in-law and the queen mother are not strict in controlling the family, which is harmful to the state..."

"Oh..." Zhao Xu nodded, and said seriously: "Understood, Queen Mother, this is only one time!"

Nodding to the queen mother, she didn't take this matter to heart.

After all, the sixth brother is young and has such a pure and benevolent nature. He couldn't see the people suffering from cold and suffering, so he begged himself to issue a decree of kindness, ordering Shi Deyi to find kapok seeds.

But the kapok is only grown in large quantities in the south of the Five Ridges. There are very few in Bianjing, and most of them are used as ornamental plants.

Shi Deyi searched for several days, and finally found dozens of catties of seeds in the inner warehouse and Kaifeng Mansion's treasury.

Looking at the queen mother, it was only a few dozen catties, so it was up to the child.

After all, how many acres can be planted with dozens of catties of seeds?

Not to mention whether they can grow live, even if Xiang Zong Hui and the others planted live, how much output can they produce?
Can we weave a hundred bolts of jibe cloth?

For trivial matters of a few hundred pennies, the Queen Mother will take care of them.

Think of it as making a plaything for Brother Six that he likes!
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother couldn't help loving this child again.

The kid next to him was at the age of Sixth Brother, who only wanted to play.

It's rare that the sixth brother is not only sensible, smart, handsome and filial, but also doesn't even look at those playthings.

Even the empress of the Baoci Palace, who is sensible, often sighs: "Bless the ancestors, and the Bodhisattva, my country is fortunate to have a wise king!"

But the Queen Mother, how do you know that the modern country has generously subsidized it in order to cultivate industries?
What's more, it's impossible for Zhao Xu to suffer.

The market price of a Jibei cloth is at least [-] or [-] guan!
When it is expensive, fifty guan can't beat it.

Sanguan collects raw materials, weaves them into jibe cloth, and resells them for ten times the profit!
As for the loom or something?

Isn't Shen Kuo going to Beijing soon?

Those who are capable work harder, and this work will belong to him.

What the Queen Mother would never have thought was that his good brothers Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji left the imperial city on their front feet, and these two guys rushed straight to the noble houses on their back feet.

Take the kapok seeds that Ouchi brought out and go door-to-door to ask.

Who has seen this thing?Where?we want!

Don't you ask what we want it for?
Just ask one question, whether you have it or not.

So these two guys soon each found a large amount of kapok seeds.

Soon, what they had was not dozens of catties of kapok seeds.

But a few hundred catties! (Although most of them are in other places and need time to adjust, what does it matter?)

For this, it was because they were worried that the Xihe Road plant would not be alive, so they just tasted it and stopped. They didn't mobilize people to look for it in the south, but it was just the result of searching around Bianjing.

If I can make a living... I will send people to Lingnan next year!
There are at least tens of millions of copper coins, gold and silver in the package vault of the Emperor Daxing.

They are not greedy, so it is not too much to ask for hundreds of thousands of flowers, right?
……

Not to mention what Xiang Zonghui and Gao Gongji did in Bianjing City.

This afternoon, after Zhao Xu woke up from his afternoon nap, he took a walk in the backyard of Funing Hall as usual, and also basked in the sun, supplemented with vitamins and so on.

Feng Jing quietly came to him and said in a low voice: "Everyone, Yan Jidao has entered Beijing today!"

"Oh..." Zhao Xu just nodded.

It was just an idle move, and it was mostly evil.

After all, a person's success depends not only on the general trend of the times, but also on his own personal efforts.

Yan Jidao has been ups and downs outside for so many years, and has experienced the heat and cold of people. If he can cheer up, rely on his hard work, and walk in front of Zhao Xu.

Then Zhao Xu would be happy to give him a chance to take revenge himself.

Let him Luoyang deal with those who once looked down on him and humiliated him.

But if he returns to Bianjing, he still looks like that prodigal son, and if he wants to be the contemporary Liu Sanbian, then follow him.

After all, a national pilgrimage also needs to be embellished by romantic literati.

When Yan Jidao returned to Beijing, even if it was Zhao Xu who favored him and promoted him specially in the name of admiring the former prime minister, he could only be a candidate, and it was nothing more than the difference between the seven ranks awarded to him by the Ministry of Officials.

There were already many redundant officials in the Song Dynasty, one more Yan Jidao was not too much, and one less Yan Jidao was not too many.

Seeing that Zhao Xu didn't respond, Feng Jing immediately changed the subject: "Everyone, I heard people say that Wang Shen is dead..."

"Oh..." Zhao Xu raised his head: "Did you die now?"

Feng Jing immediately lowered his head.

What do you mean?
You thought Wang Shen was not dead last time, but this time you think it's too late?
This royal family is really unlucky!

Feng Jing could only continue to change the subject: "In addition, I have heard that it seems that tomorrow the first batch of stacking yards of the Embankment Division will be bought in the old city's Yiwu Office..."

"It is said that there is already a long line outside the City Affairs Office in Taipingfang...Many big households in Bianjing have already sent their servants to guard Kaipu..."

Only then did Zhao Xu become more interested, and asked, "Who will Dutang send to host Pumai?"

"I heard it's Wailang Jia Zhongmin, a member of the driving department..."

"Oh!" Zhao Xu nodded.

This is a capable official!It's also a workable one.

In the early years of Shaosheng, he was the one who promoted the rebuilt Di'an Division and Qingbian Division.

Under his auspices, Di'an Division and Qingbian Division were quickly rebuilt, and soon returned to their former appearance.

After 900 years, the city of Bianjing was buried deep underground.

However, a thing built under the supervision of Jia Zhongmin was dug out from the ground by later generations.

It is the seahorse stone wall at the east bank site of Zhouqiao!
Zhao Xu even went to see the unearthed site in modern times, and he was amazed and amazed.

However, this person's background is quite complicated.

Jia Zhongmin was a member of the Zhending Jia family after Jia Changchao, the prime minister of Renmiao.

This Jia family is very interesting.

Half of them joined the old party and became pawns of the old party, and the other half joined the new party and became pawns of the new party.

The final result was that the big boss above was talking and laughing happily, and with a random move, the people below suffered heavy casualties.

The Jia family was very unfortunate, because it was on the front line of the fighting, and a large area was shot.

Jia Zhongmin was one of the few survivors, a player whose luck and strength were both online.

However, Jia Zhongmin's luck seemed to be exhausted after Zhao Xu's death. Because he was too close to Zhang Dun, he was frantically suppressed and attacked, and his evening scene was bleak.

Now, Jia Zhongmin is in charge of the buying business, and Zhao Xu feels that those big households should not take too much advantage of it.

……

Yan Jidao took his own horse and strolled along the streets of Bianjing, which he was once familiar with but is now extremely unfamiliar.

He looked at both sides of the Bian River, still crowded with people.

It's a pity that no one knows him anymore, let alone recognize him.

The yamen back then had fallen so low that there was no place to stay in the huge city of Bianjing.

Could it just be going to the residence store?
Looking at the banks of the Bian River, those mansions lined up in a row.

Live in Zhang Yuan's house for a long time, live in Li Dazui's mansion, Wang Erxian's mansion...

There are countless signboards for attracting customers in the mansion shop, all standing at the door.

The residence store is not easy to live in either!

Yan Jidao touched the strings of money in his pocket.

He could only bite the bullet, lead the horse, and walk towards the official house in his memory.

One day in the mansion shop, ranging from dozens of texts to as many as three to five hundred.

He couldn't afford to live at all, so he had to live in the official residence specially opened for officials entering Beijing during the Renmiao era.

Although the conditions are poor, although the living is not comfortable.

But cheap!

Only four to five hundred texts a month!

Yan Jidao walked along the Imperial Street, but before he reached Tonglifang where the official residence was located, a strange voice came from behind him.

"But Shuyuan?"

Yan Jidao turned around and saw a man in official uniform riding on a tall horse, and jumped off the horse: "It's me! Shu Yuan! Don't you recognize me?"

"Jia Zhongmin, who is sure of the Jia family!"

Seeing that Yan Jidao was still confused, Jia Zhongmin had no choice but to bow his hands again: "The ancestor of the family is the former Sikong and servant Jiagong who tabooed the Chang Dynasty..."

"So it's Brother Shi!" Yan Jidao finally came to his senses and hurriedly cupped his hands in salute.

Jia Changchao and his father, Yan Shu, used to be ministers in the same hall, and there was some love.

However, Yan Jidao really couldn't remember, when did he know a person named Jia Zhongmin from the Jia family?
But Jia Zhongmin has already stepped forward enthusiastically, holding Yan Jidao's hand, like a close friend whom he hasn't seen for many years: "I have been waiting for Shuyuan since I heard that Emperor Jialongen recalled Shuyuan to the court. Today Once met, it is fate!"

"I don't know if Shuyuan would like to show you face and have a few drinks with me?"

Yan Jidao nodded.

Although he still doesn't understand why this elder brother who has no impression is so polite to him.

But he had just returned to Beijing, and he really didn't know much about Bianjing. Now he met a "enthusiastic acquaintance", and he just took the opportunity to inquire about Bianjing with him.

……

Zhang Dun gently opened the window of the thirteenth building beside the Bian River, and looked at Jia Zhongmin who was talking to Yan Jidao who was familiar with him on the street downstairs.

"Yan Shuyuan really returned to Beijing!"

"Fortunately, I met you today!"

Zhang Dun rubbed his hands, thinking of the old friend who was going back to Beijing soon.

Based on Zhang Dun's understanding of Su Shi, he knew very well that as long as Su Shi heard that Yan Jidao was in Bianjing, he would definitely look for him.

In this way, he would have an excuse to meet Su Zizhan again.

Then ask Su Zizhan again: Now that Zizhan has returned to the capital, would he like to cross the Xianyou Lake again! ?
In this way, you can see Su Zizhan's distraught face.

However, this is just Zhang Dun's personal bad taste.

What Zhang Dun really cared about was Yan Jidao's arrangements for him after he returned to Beijing?
This is critical!

In Zhang Dun's view, this is a valuable way to observe whether the young master has a ravine in his chest and has his own way!

Once Yan Jidao, as he expected, was granted an assignment from Henan Mansion or Luoyang.

That would be so much fun!

Zhang Dun recalled Wen Yanbo's old face that he saw in the court the day before yesterday.

He muttered to himself.

If the young master is really blessed early, he has a strategy gap in his chest.

Then Zhang Dun can assure you that as proud as Wen Yanbo is now, his descendants will be miserable in the future!
It is a serious crime for a child to look down on the emperor!
What's more, he is still a young emperor who plans before acting?

If it really offends such a young master, the Wen family can only ask for blessings.

　Note: On the map of Shanghe during the Qingming Festival, it can be seen that the mansions in Bianjing City in the Northern Song Dynasty would have a sign outside, with words such as: Long live in XX's house.

　　So the so-called Didian is actually the current hotel!
　　The mansions of the Song Dynasty are very interesting. There are both government-run and private-run stores, and even private businessmen contracted the mansions of the mansions.

　　Note 2: Shiyiwu is in Taipingfang.

　　PS: Asking for a monthly pass, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
