Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 749 Quotations from Sun Tzu
In October, Sun Xiangfu, who set off from Seoul to Guangzhou City, didn't know that he had been severely tricked by his apprentice Wu Meiniang. The imperial court had already started to work on the manpower, supplies, and diplomacy that he needed to do in the Western Regions. get ready.

Of course, it can also be said that Li Shimin and all those who expect Sun Xiangfu to become a saint are cheating it together. When his holy name can benefit everyone, including the ruling class and ordinary people, then , its success rate will be infinitely increased.

The samurai Xun in Yangzhou City Business College will receive several letters from Wu Meiniang from Chang'an every time.

In fact, in the past few years, there have been quite a few people who want to become in-laws with the warrior Xun. After all, he is the crown prince Shaofu, the Duke of Ying, and Wu Meiniang is Sun Xiangfu's direct disciple, with agricultural technology and hair growth ability. It is not an exaggeration to use the word "amazing talent" to describe it. Before that, it took her less than five years to help a Xiazhou that did not build a field to achieve great political achievements. Apart from her teacher Sun Xiangfu , no one can compare with it in this respect.

This great rule is not the same as the previous great rule, but to achieve a stable and generous income on the basis of comprehensive guarantees of free medical care, education, and endowment insurance, just like Yuantian District.There are more than a dozen kinds of special products in Suizhou, but they are all in her hands, and they have been made into large-scale industries.

In terms of family background and talent, she belongs to the top Bai Fumei in Datang, even more popular than the princess, almost the embodiment of the most perfect housewife.

However, the samurai Xun just couldn't choose a son-in-law who could marry Wu Meiniang from many officials and eunuchs.

Wu Meiniang expressed strong opposition to all the objects he selected, including Qi Wang Li You, Shu Wang Li Yin and so on.She can't even look down on these royal princes as the head princess.

This made it difficult for the samurai Xun, that is, he and Sun Xiangfu had enough face, otherwise, Li Xiaogong, who was in charge of the clan mansion, would have to go to Li Shimin and his wife to file a complaint. This is too detrimental to the royal face.

It wasn't until she entered the palace and became a servant that the whole situation changed. Everyone felt that only a good national prince like Li Chengqian could control her. What Wu Meiniang wanted to be in her heart must be a noble concubine, not a princess.

However, everyone never thought that Li Chengqian and her never called at all. So far, his relationship with Hou Shuya is as stable as Li Shimin's relationship with the eldest grandson empress. People, after the Wang family paid a lot of money, they sealed a side concubine.

Moreover, in the East Palace, there are only a few beautiful women who can serve the bed. This is because the Empress Changsun often gives orders. In the end, Li Chengqian had to compromise. The choice was also some singing and dancing music. Talented woman.

Therefore, he has a very clear preference when it comes to women, which is more artistic and literary.

A strong woman like Wu Meiniang who likes management, is good at maneuvering, and is quite scheming is not his type at all.

However, no matter what, Li Chengqian was made up by the ministers as a shield for Wu Meiniang's unmarriage, and this shield was very useful. No one would compete with Li Chengqian, whose reputation among the people was only slightly weaker than that of Li Shimin and Sun Xiangfu.

Therefore, even Empress Changsun thought that it would only be a matter of time before Wu Meiniang became Li Chengqian's side concubine.

But who knows, at this time, Li Shimin informed Empress Changsun that this woman cannot be a concubine. Even if Li Chengqian really took over the house, her status should not be too high. She is not a person who is willing to live under others. For a long time, troubles will arise.

October is also the time when the data of various departments of the imperial court are collected and the government orders for the coming year are promulgated. What the ministers of the DPRK and China did not expect is that Chu Suiliang, Minister of the Ministry of Justice, who has always been the last to report the data for non-production exports, was the first to come out and announce a new law.

The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and internal officials are not allowed to be involved in politics. From now on, these two items will be written into the laws of the Tang Dynasty. The punishment is very severe. If the empress is suspected of interfering in politics, the Ministry of Justice can file a case for investigation and verify the truth. , the highest degree that can be played please abolish the degree.

Needless to say, internal officials are involved in politics, there is a whole set of strict legal management system, ranging from dismissal from office, to filing a case and sentencing, the maximum death penalty, it does not matter whether you are involved in politics, whether it is for the good of the country or for your own good , must be punished according to the law.

Therefore, after this decree was announced, Wu Meiniang panicked. She knew that this was a warning from Li Shimin to herself. politics.

But who knew that even though Li Shimin suffered the great grief of Li Yuan's death, his heart was like a bright mirror.

In history, Wu Meiniang was here with Li Shimin, but she didn't get much favor. She had been a talented person for 12 years, and her status had not been promoted.

And the letter she wrote to Samurai Xun was to complain and ask for support.

His own daughter knew that what could he do with such a troublemaker at the booth!

They are all in charge of the third-rank internal guards, and they are not satisfied, and the samurai Xun is also out of recruits.

Instead of replying to her in a hurry, he first sent a letter to Sun Xiangfu of Lingnan Road, asking him to come to Yangzhou for a sit-down when he returned. In three to five days, plus the traveling time, he transferred to Yangzhou City in about half a month.

After the establishment of the business school, this city with waterways also extending in all directions has completely changed its previous temperament. It is a place where all people thrive and the economic growth rate is so fast that it is unimaginable. If it has Chang'an's In terms of industrial capacity, Huainan's economic explosive power can even surpass Shannan Road or Guanzhong.

Because, here, it has naturally become a trade center for the entire southeast region, whether it is goods from Chang'an, goods from Shannan Road, or various goods and raw materials transported from the southeast to Guanzhong or Shannan Road. And so on, have to go through here.

Moreover, it is also the production base of Datang's entire seasoning industry, many old industries such as salt industry, fishery, catering and entertainment, and new industries such as pharmaceutical industry, paper industry, shipbuilding industry, and tea industry. The entire Yangzhou New City is dotted with bustling brocades. Even in the winter weather, the docks and streets here are bustling with activity.

Because Sun Xiangfu was on a steam ship, the itinerary was difficult to estimate, so Samurai Xun just sent a servant to wait at the pier. After Sun Xiangfu landed, he naturally took him to find Samurai Xun's residence in Yangzhou Business School After learning from the servant that he had classes at this time, Sun Xiangfu was not in a hurry to go, and went to the bean paste workshop on the outskirts of the city first.

Lu Quanyou is also an old man in Xingfu Village, but if you think he is worse than Wang Erniu in Xi Village, you are completely wrong. The bean paste workshop has been a giant industry that sells nationwide since its inception. From the very beginning as a substitute for salt, it instantly occupied the market, accounting for [-] to [-]% of the fiscal and taxation of the year.

Then, it launched a variety of seasoning sauces that all ordinary families need to use daily, which made its volume continue to expand, and it basically achieved a monopoly, or the degree to which no competitors could compete with it.

And when the green pepper was gradually accepted by everyone, it became even more out of control. Now not only in Yangzhou, but also in the north and south, they have opened pepper plantations, dozens of branch factories, and the output value surpasses the largest in Datang. The smelters and shipyards in Pankou are no worse than any other industry, including the five surnames and seven clan groups, and are firmly ranked among the top five industries of all listed companies in Datang.

Because it not only supplies the market of 8000 to [-] million people in the Tang Dynasty, but also the market of the entire Eurasian continent, and it is a market that is continuously consumed. Everyone has eaten the output of the Yangzhou soybean paste factory for more than ten years. The sauce has long been used to the taste. As long as the quality of the sauce is not reduced, there is no need to worry about performance.

Therefore, although Sun Xiangfu's shares were confiscated by the royal family, the Xingfu Village Group still holds 5.00% of the shares in this industry, and can also get a [-]% operating commission of the total profit. The annual income has gone to the sea. .

When he saw the headquarters building of Yangzhou Soybean Paste Factory and the hundreds of flavors of soy sauce displayed in the lobby, Sun Xiangfu seemed to see the shelves of supermarkets selling sauces in later generations.

Beef bean paste, chicken diced bean paste, rabbit diced bean paste, all kinds of sea fish bean paste, chili sauce with different spiciness, spicy sauce, etc., etc., some of them taste so good that Sun Xiangfu opened a bottle of sauce and immediately Can eat three bowls of rice.

The employees here don't know Sun Xiangfu's identity at all, thinking that Sun Xiangfu is a merchant who came to buy goods, and a manager in charge came up to negotiate, and the servants in the samurai's family were about to speak, but Sun Xiangfu stopped him, like Zhang Ke The old guard who has been with Sun Xiangfu for more than ten years has long understood his emotions, and directly helped Sun Xiangfu find a plate and chopsticks in Datang's tasting area, and let him try it.

"Food safety is the most important thing. Although these soy sauces have a long shelf life, they must have accurate production dates and expiry dates. In addition, they must explain to all users that the sauces are too old to eat. On the bottles of these packages, it should be clearly written in words and affixed."

The manager in charge had already seen Sun Xiangfu's extraordinaryness from his dressing style, but he never expected that anyone would come in and make such a major improvement request for the products of the soybean paste workshop. Those top dignitaries in the court should have been notified long ago.

But he didn't dare to be negligent, because the phrase "food safety is greater than the sky" that Sun Xiangfu said was a slogan that must be posted in every production workshop of the soybean paste workshop. Those who can say this sentence must not be outsiders.

Soon, after his subordinates reported, Lu Quanyou rushed to the lobby of the office building of the soybean paste factory. After seeing Sun Xiangfu, his eyes were full of tears.

After more than ten years, Sun Xiangfu finally came to Yangzhou to visit him again. As for the product improvement problem he mentioned, he would do whatever he said. If ten years ago, even five years ago, you People may not understand the words on the packaging bottle.

But now, every family basically has people who can read and write. Regarding what Sun Xiangfu said, according to the different temperatures in the north and the south, field investigations and experiments, to find out different shelf life, divide by region, and make different reminders, etc., in this packaging It will be written on the note.

Food safety work must be meticulous, otherwise, it will cause a catastrophe.

And what Sun Xiangfu said in the tofu workshop of the Food Supervision Department, "Food safety is greater than the sky", has already been included in the Sun Tzu Quotations by Li Shimin. Of course, if Sun Xiangfu knew, someone in Chang'an would have called Sun Xiangfu in private. Grandson', he is estimated to be depressed to death.
