People in the Song Dynasty were lawless

Chapter 250 Going south for honeymoon, Liu Yong comes to stop the car

"Wuhu, wife!"

At a quarter past three o'clock, almost eight o'clock in the evening, Zhao Jun finally saw off all the guests and dragged his exhausted body back to the room.

Apart from a few maids and maids, there were only guards standing guard outside the courtyard, but there were also several nuns accompanying Cao Miaoxin in the room.

Zhao Jun kicked everyone out. Originally, there was a custom of making trouble in the bridal chamber in the Song Dynasty. This bad custom began in this era.

But Zhao Jun stood outside the door with a serious face. Who dares to come and die?

Zhao Zhen didn't even dare to come.

Therefore, many of the Cao family's nephews and juniors who still wanted to join in the fun and ask for red envelopes all ran away obediently, not even daring to let out a fart.

Now that everyone was out, Zhao Jun walked to the bed, stopped Cao Miaoxin and said with a smile, "Wife?"

"Um"

Cao Miaoxin responded shyly.

Since the Song Dynasty, wife has become a popular name for wife.

"Menglianglu·Night Market" records: "When good fortune comes, buy farmland and marry a wife."

But this was the first time she heard such a title.

After all, it is a common name among the people, like "Xiaojun" or "Madam" in wealthy families.

"It's quite tiring to sit there all day."

Zhao Jun asked.

Cao Miaoxin smelled the wine and said, "Thank you for your hard work, husband."

After the first blind date, Zhao Jun also asked Cao Miaoxin out several times in the past few months.

For example, if you go for an outing in the countryside, or go to Fanlou to have a meal or go shopping, you will feel more familiar and not so unfamiliar.

"Fortunately, those people are always trying to make me drink, and your brother-in-law is the worst."

"Official?"

"That's not it."

"Forehead"

"It's late at night, it's time to sleep."

Zhao Jun held Cao Miaoxin in his arms, and with the strength of the wine, he first blew out the candles, and then threw himself on the bed.

"Husband."

"what?"

"Why do you have a stick on you?"

"This isn't a stick, it's a big baby."

"big baby?"

Cao Miaoxin felt her husband push her down, and asked with some confusion: "What big baby is growing on her belly?"

"I think you don't understand at all."

"Know what?"

"Here you go, let me be healthy."

Zhao Jun took out the big treasure from his arms and said happily: "This is the jade Ruyi given by the official, hide it quickly."

Cao Miaoxin took Yu Ruyi and rolled her eyes: "That's it?"

"That's not it. It's a good thing."

Zhao Jun turned over and got into bed. He didn't even bother to take off his clothes, just thinking about going to sleep.

He actually couldn't hold it anymore and drank too much.

Seeing him acting like a ghost, Cao Miaoxin's cheerful character came to light, and she pushed her way: "Husband!~~~~"

The voice was soft, and the fingertips were still rubbing Zhao Jun's cheek.

In ancient times, women not only had experienced women to teach them before entering the bridal chamber, but they also looked at erotic pictures.

She knows better than anyone else.

"what."

"Enter the bridal chamber."

"I'm so tired. How about tomorrow?"

"Is that okay, husband?"

"Zhuo, men can't say no."

Zhao Jun lost his temper, took off his clothes and hugged him like a hungry tiger.

I was really drunk.

He was thinking of not getting some sleep and doing things in the morning.

But his wife is more anxious than him.

There's nothing we can do about it.

I can only go into battle with a gun and fight in a bloody battle!

In an instant, the room was filled with the fragrance of flowers, and even the temperature rose a few degrees.

.

.

The next morning, Zhao Jun got up with a pair of panda eyes.

My wife has something.

Even though he had been practicing hard for many years watching movies and perfecting his ancestral skills, he almost fell under the long legs of the Cao family women.

Fortunately, he is more skilled. Although his wife is powerful, it is still his first time and he is not yet proficient. He only has physical strength and endurance, but no superb skills.

On the other hand, although Zhao Jun does not have much experience, he has rich theoretical experience. Under the earnest guidance of many teachers, he has already become extraordinary.

The two men fought for three hundred rounds with swords, guns, clubs, axes, hooks and forks, thunder and fire. After more than an hour, Cao Miaoxin was finally defeated and was beheaded by Zhao Jun.

Under normal circumstances, today is the day to pay respects to the parents-in-law, and the wedding ceremony is completely over.

The poem says it well: "The red candles were lit in the bridal chamber last night, and I waited in front of the hall to pay homage to my uncle at dawn. After putting on makeup, I asked my husband in a low voice, and my eyebrows were dark and light."

But Zhao Jun's parents were still alive before he traveled through time, and his family tree was complete. He became an orphan after traveling through time. It would take him thirty or forty generations to find a relative in his family tree.

So naturally there is no such link.

When he got up, his wife had already gotten up. Women in ancient times were virtuous, going to bed early and getting up early to work.

As soon as Zhao Jun left the house, Cao Miaoxin came over with white fungus and lotus seed soup. Seeing him getting dressed, he wondered: "Husband, where are you going?"

"Go to court."

"Didn't the officials say they would give you a rest?"

"Oh, almost forgot."

Zhao Jun slapped his forehead and thought for a while.

Now the Constitutional Yuan has actually gone on the right track.

The national development of the Song Dynasty was also advancing steadily according to his plan.

That is to say, if you want to formally start internal reforms, you must first eliminate the factors of external invasion.

Now that has been eliminated, internal reforms have begun.     Official administration and foreign trade were carried out simultaneously.

Jingyou's restructuring, coupled with the current Qingli New Deal, are all aimed at the officialdom.

Once order is restored in the officialdom, drastic restructuring of the economy and agriculture can then be carried out.

At this time, Japanese silver was flowing in, and the other four foreign trade routes continued to bring wealth to the Song Dynasty. A large number of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes could be further eliminated, reducing the burden on farmers.

With money and food, the domestic land conflict has also been improved. The next step is to build the Yellow River, dig canals, promote education, develop the textile industry, coal industry, and steel industry, paving the way for the first industrial revolution.

Finally, it is to reform the military step by step.

After all, foreign troubles were only eliminated temporarily, and no one knew when Xixia and Liao would come, so military reform could only be put at the end.

The first step has already been taken.

As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. The most fearful thing about planning is not having a correct direction.

Now that the direction has been adjusted, the most difficult thing in the early stage was to defeat the Xixia and Liao Kingdoms, complete the official restructuring, do a good job in the economy, and adjust foreign trade. Bridges and roads have been built. The next step is to implement and test the truth through practice.

However, Zhao Jun, the person who planned the direction, was of little use. The rest could be left to Lao Fan and others to execute. Anyway, he had taught them the methods, so he couldn't possibly do everything himself.

"This person feels bored when he has free time, but it's good. He's very tired from going to court so early every day, so it's good to take a little rest."

Zhao Jun thought about it, then took the soup from his wife and said while drinking: "Honey, have you been to Jiangnan?"

"Never been."

Cao Miaoxin shook her head. She grew up in Bianliang and had never even been out of Kaifeng Mansion except for outings in the city.

Zhao Jun smiled and said: "I just have some free time, let's go on our honeymoon!"

"Where?"

"Go to Zhejiang and see the scenery there."

"it is good."

Cao Miaoxin said happily: "I will go wherever your husband goes."

"Then let's go!"

Zhao Jun did what he said.

I wrote a letter to Zhao Zhen immediately in the early morning, and then sent someone to the Imperial City Division to say hello and let the Imperial Guards prepare. They would set off at noon today.

Now the responsibilities of the Imperial City Department have also been raised. It is a dual subordinate agency that belongs to the emperor and the Constitutional Academy. It is equivalent to the FBI of the later emperors. The level has been expanded. Cao Xiu, the imperial city envoy, is now also from the second level. On the same level as the general department.

The scale has grown and the affairs have become busy, so Cao Xiu rarely appears next to Zhao Jun.

As for Di Qing, it was even more remarkable. In the wars against Xixia and Liao, he had great military exploits and was promoted like a rocket.

The battalion commander who just went to the northwest is now the fifth-level commander of the Japanese Army and the commander of the four compartments of the Tianwu Army. Five years ago, he was just a squad leader, and now he is a general.

Originally, he wanted to stay in Hebei. Zhang Kang had greater military exploits and was promoted from a local magistrate to a transport envoy on Hebei Road and was awarded the title of third-grade minister of the Ministry of War. Di Qing wanted to continue to follow Zhang Kang, but he couldn't bear it. Now it is true that the Liao-Song Dynasty has ceased war.

If there is going to be a war next, I am afraid it will take at least a few years for the Liao Kingdom to recover. Placing Di Qing on Hebei Road is obviously a waste of time. It is better to stay in Bianliang to train more soldiers, and to jointly study with the Firearms Department. , testing the power of new firearms.

So the two right men following Zhao Jun are actually Jiang Dalang and Huang Sanlang.

After things are arranged, set off immediately.

Even Zhao Zhen didn't expect Zhao Jun to make a decision so quickly. He got up early in the morning and said he wanted to take his wife on a honeymoon, but left at noon. He originally wanted to call the couple into the palace for lunch at noon.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, he received the news that his eldest grandson was going to Jiangnan for his honeymoon, which was unexpected.

However, it was really hard for Zhao Jun during this period. He was working on the national master plan to guide the general direction, and all the frameworks had to be structured. He was often too busy to touch the ground. It was good to let him relax, so he was not allowed to come back. There he went.

Zhao Jun set out at noon, and did not bring many people with him. Just like the last patrol, he hired three large ships at the dock, took two battalions of guards from the Imperial City Division and set off, heading south along the canal.

This time it was a honeymoon trip, so I didn’t stop at any place and went directly to the destination. It only took about thirty days to reach Hangzhou.

It is late summer in June, the scenery of Hangzhou city is pleasant, and the West Lake is even more beautiful.

It just so happened that there had been a light rain recently. Just after the light rain, the towering trees on the tree-lined path along the lakeside were lush and green, with a few drops of water occasionally falling between the branches. It landed on the bluestone and made a tiny splash.

There are rows of houses next to it, including teahouses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, bookstores... The shop gates are hung with market banners to attract business, and pedestrians of all kinds are crowded with each other. There is a constant flow of people. Compared with the prosperity of the inner city of Bianjing, it is nothing. Not inferior.

Zhao Jun was boating on the lake with his wife at this time, enjoying the beautiful scenery. He came to Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas firstly for his honeymoon, and secondly to inspect the trade situation with Korea and Japan.

Due to the establishment of a state-owned enterprise, he was still very concerned about the rapid inflow of Japanese silver. Therefore, he encouraged businessmen in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions to go overseas to Japan. As long as they were willing to go overseas, they could often enjoy certain tax exemptions.

All of a sudden, followers gathered.

If businessmen go overseas, they will definitely hire a large number of people, which can also solve many employment problems.

And in the future, with the frequent trade between Japan's Iwami area and the Song Dynasty, there will definitely be corresponding development there. A large number of Japanese people will flow into Iwami, including mining and transportation workers, as well as taverns, brothels, and people from the Song Dynasty. A merchant who trades goods.

Although the Song Dynasty did not station troops on Tsushima Island, it allowed private merchants to bring a large number of books and private weapons to Japan. In this way, the culture of the Song Dynasty can be quickly spread and the influence of the Song Dynasty on Japan can be deepened.

After arriving at the place, Zhao Jun first went shopping with his wife for a few days, and then went to Hangzhou Shipping Department for inspection and looked at the trade data between the Song Dynasty and Japan this year.

The data is exaggerated.

In just six months, it has tripled, and it continues to rise.

In fact, it is not that the Song Dynasty did not trade with Japan in the past, but the number of transactions was limited. The Song Dynasty mainly bought copper, sulfur and other minerals from Japan.

As mentioned before, the Song Dynasty had a clever operation, which was to use the copper coins of the Song Dynasty to buy copper mines from abroad, then make them into copper coins, then go abroad to buy copper mines, and then take them back to make copper coins...

The biggest source of resentment for exchanging copper mines for Song Dynasty copper coins was Japan.

As a result, the large influx of copper coins from the Song Dynasty caused Japan's domestic prices to skyrocket. This made the Ping family, who was in power during the Heian period, very angry and repeatedly rejected official trade requests from the Northern Song Dynasty.

Private trade was only allowed in Hakatazu in Chikuzen Province, which later became the port of Hakata District in Fukuoka City, Japan, which severely hindered the development of trade between the Northern Song Dynasty and Japan.

This situation did not begin to improve until the Southern Song Dynasty.

At the end of the Taira clan and the Kamakura shogunate gradually began to establish diplomatic relations with the Southern Song Dynasty, they implemented the national policy of revitalizing trade, thus increasing the scale of trade. It was not until that period that trade between Song and Japan became frequent.

Now that the Song Dynasty was powerful in military force, after defeating the Liao Kingdom, the garrison arrived in Tamluo, which made Japan very afraid, so it was forced to start free trade.

Now it's just the beginning.

When the Song-Japan route really prospers, it will be normal for it to increase dozens of times.

Zhao Jun was still very happy to see this.

Although there was relatively little trade with Japan in the past, the growth rate was extremely fast. When it stabilizes in the future, the growth will drop a lot.

But in that case, a large amount of silver will have flowed into Japan, and the money shortage will be solved, which will further promote the prosperity of the commodity economy.

This is an excellent thing for Song Dynasty.

After inspecting Hangzhou City Shipbuilding Industry, Zhao Jun originally wanted to go to Mingzhou City Shipbuilding Industry Company to visit, but the weather was pretty good today. Although it rained lightly, the West Lake was more beautiful after the rain, so he and his wife went out for a boating trip.

Half smoke and half rain river bridge, shaded by trees, green willows and peach blossoms on both sides, deep ancient temples, white walls and black tiles, curling smoke, the scenery is extremely beautiful.

Zhao Jun and his wife ate boiled West Lake fish on the boat, and when they were done, they planned to go back.

Soon the boat docked.

At this moment, a middle-aged man came up quickly.

But before he could get close, he was stopped by the guards. He quickly shouted: "Zhiyuan, I am under the command of Dinghai Salt Supervisor Liu Yong, and I would like to give a speech to the Zhiyuan."

Is this a drama about Xia Song stopping his horse to offer poems?

Zhao Jun looked over and saw that the man was about fifty, wearing the official uniform of a seventh-grade official. He smiled, said something to Jiang Dalang, then got on the carriage and left.

Liu Yong couldn't help but feel disappointed when he saw this situation, thinking that a big shot like Zhiyuan would not take him seriously.

So I had to laugh at myself, turned away and left.

But as soon as he walked around the corner, someone chased him and told him to go to the inn where Chiyuan was staying that night.

After hearing the news, Liu Yong was overjoyed. He hurriedly went back and checked the poems he wanted to present again to see if there was anything that needed to be changed. He waited until evening for a visit.
