A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

After the decree was conveyed, Chen Zhongheng said solemnly: "Shen An, you must bear in mind the kindness of the officials, and from now on you should do your best to serve the country."

"Yes, yes, Shen is willing to sacrifice his life and blood for the Song Dynasty..."

After what Shen An said, it seemed as if he was the only loyal minister in the Song Dynasty.

Chen Zhongheng felt that if he continued to talk, he would feel that the founding father given by the officials was not enough.

"Someone is gone."

The best way is to get out of the way and let Shen An vent his excitement.

"Hey! Lao Chen, there will be a banquet at home later to celebrate. Why don't you go back after eating? I will cook two delicious dishes myself."

Chen Zhongheng's throat twitched, and then he said righteously: "If someone is upright and has breeze on his sleeves, you can't even think of bribing him..."

"Bring the jerky!"

Shen An said hello, and Yao Lian went to pick up a bag.

Shen An opened his pocket and said, "It's all beef jerky. You can take it back to comfort yourself at night when you're bored."

Beef jerky is a good thing, and it’s rare.

Chen Zhongheng said with a straight face: "Did you kill the cow?"

Shen An said innocently: "At that time, we raided the Xixia people's camp and killed many cattle."

Killing the cow is true, but it is more of a reward for the army after a great victory.

The cattle and sheep were slaughtered and then cooked in large pots. They ate large pieces of meat and drank wine from large bowls, which was similar to the king of the mountain.

Chen Zhongheng took the bag and said, "Guoguo can't eat this. It's just that your brother is incompetent. It's better to take it back."

"Okay, okay!"

Shen An knew that Chen Zhongheng had this kind of character, so he was not angry and sent him out the door with a smile.

After Chen Zhongheng came to the door, he put his bag in front of the saddle, turned around and said, "The officials asked you to report the Mangshan Army's military exploits, and you will be rewarded later."

Can rural soldiers also be rewarded?

Shen An thought there was no such thing, so he planned to quietly give some benefits to the soldiers.

"I've seen a converted man..."

Shen An was shocked when he saw the businessmen standing on the side bowing down respectfully.

This is what he said before that you can't walk at night in fine clothes.

He only felt a little dizzy in his body, and a wave of excitement gradually surged up.

This is what life is like. As the saying goes, a son must become famous before he can get drunk. A man should live a happy life while he is alive.

This is the moment of pleasure!

If Shen An's bewitchment had made their blood boil with excitement before, then now there was more awe in their hearts.

"Congratulations, congratulations to Mr. Shen!"

After hearing the news, the neighbors went out and congratulated one after another.

"The sixteen-year-old founding man is not yet a powerful queen or a son of a clan..."

"There is no precedent for this, right?"

"No, someone's child is as old as Shen An, but he still plays all day long, which makes people feel unhappy!"

The neighbors looked at Shen An with complicated eyes, feeling that their lives were in vain.

Then the children and teenagers in Yulin Lane began to have bad luck.

Look at Shen An, he's only sixteen years old, he's a founding father, he's a member of the Imperial Academy, and there's an Imperial Academy storyteller... What about you?

beat!

Screaming and pleading, countless children and teenagers regarded Shen An as their idol and at the same time wished they could beat him half to death.

…

"When I was sixteen years old, I was in the palace and had endless things to do every day..."

Zhang Baba asked coldly: "Why did those businessmen go to the Shen family?"

A man dressed as a commoner said: "They want more goods, but Shen An doesn't care."

Zhang Baba snorted coldly: "Businessmen are chasing profits, but Shen An won't give them... Is this a blackmail?"

The Imperial City Division has been tempting those businessmen with benefits. Some have taken the bait, but others have remained silent.

Those who remain calm are not because they are loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but because they don't want to take risks.

Shen An's move did have some benefits, but Zhang Ba8 thought it was pure nonsense.

The man raised his head, as if trying to hold back a smile.

"Shen An later said he wanted to raise prices, but those people were too angry to say anything."

"Twenty-five coins and the price is still going up?"

Zhang Baba felt that Shen An's heart was really dark, "Aren't those businessmen making trouble?"

In his opinion, those businessmen would definitely unite to oppose Shen An's price increase.

"No."

"Why? If he breaks up with those businessmen, how can the Imperial City Secretary bribe those businessmen?"

When the people from the Imperial City Department went to bribe the businessman, they said, 'Someone will make it impossible for you to get the fragrant dew.'

This move was very effective at first, and it immediately dampened the arrogance of the merchants, making them easier to cooperate with later on.

The man said with a troubled expression: "Everyone knows that Shen An is bewitching those businessmen."

"What did you say?"

Zhang Baibian has nothing to do today, so he has time to listen to gossip.

"...Life is a torment. If you get fat first, you won't be fat. If you get fat later, you will collapse the bed...Follow me, money and beautiful women are not a problem. What you need to worry about is not enough waist..."

The man looked at Zhang Baba cautiously before he dared to continue.

Mentioning waist to a man who has lost his virginity is humiliating.

Zhang Baba said in a deep voice: "Those businessmen will not be deceived by such words, and they will leave if they fail. Go and call the businessmen who were bribed before, and be careful not to attract attention."

He stood up and watched the man go out, and said coldly: "In just two months, those businessmen have provided a lot of information. Among them, the information about Liao Kingdom is worth thousands of gold, and the information about Xixia is also good. If they break away, Shen An is the culprit!"

Someone on the side said: "Everyone knows that if you are separated..."

"Then do it."

"Somebody come!"

"Everyone knows!"

There was a coldness in Zhang Baibian's eyes, and he ordered: "Prepare the instruments of torture and form an array later. If you don't obey, take action immediately."

"Treat first, then torture if you don't comply, you all know how to do it!"

"We all know that if those people dare to refuse in person, they are seeking death."

"Shen An is okay as a businessman, but he doesn't have the means and prestige that everyone knows. Hey! He's still young after all!"

There are many people in the Imperial City Division who are well known, and Zhang Ba8 is just one of them.

From here we can see the management style of the Lao Zhao family: mutual restraint.

Whether it is the military or the DPRK, mutual restraint is certain.

As a sword in the emperor's hand, the Imperial City Division cannot be made monolithic.

Zhang Baibian's prestige was high enough and his methods were ruthless enough, so he suppressed the others, but it was impossible for him to act arbitrarily.

The people in the Imperial City Department are either murderers or human beings, so it is instinct to flatter them wherever possible, just like Tang Ren.

Zhang Baibian stood there, feeling a sense of ecstasy.

Everyone has vanity, and everyone likes to be arrogant and proud.

Therefore, Zhang Baibian is also not exempt from vulgarity, but his vanity is much less than others.

Later, three merchants came, one from Liao, one from Xixia, and one from Korea.

This was the first time they had met Zhang Ba8en, and the Korean businessman was almost scared to death just by meeting him face to face.

The three of them saluted respectfully, and Zhang Baba said calmly: "Do you have any complaints?"

The three of them looked up in confusion, and the Korean businessman said tremblingly: "My lord, what are you complaining about?"

"Pretending in front of someone..."

"kill!"

Zhang Baba spoke softly, but the people standing beside him shouted in unison, and the three businessmen were frightened and knelt down.

"My noble man, spare your life!"

The three of them showed their ugly faces. Zhang Baibian glanced at him with disgust and said: "Shen An has raised the price. I will go and talk to him about this, but if you dare to go back on your word..."

"kill!"

The people on the side shouted loudly again, suddenly filled with murderous intent.

But the three businessmen were not afraid this time. Instead, they looked aggrieved.

"Noble...there is nothing you can do!"

The Liao businessman said with a confused look on his face: "The villain...The villain is willing to increase the price."

Um?

Zhang Baibian looked at the Xixia merchant.

"The villain is willing, the villain is willing to increase the price, the noble must not let the converted man regret it!"

Is this a disease?

Or are you stupid?

He looked at the Korean businessman and said, "I will make the decision for you and others, so if you have any grievances, just tell me."

Compared with those news, Zhang Ba8 thought that making money was secondary.

He has prepared countermeasures to negotiate with Shen An. Even if he turns against him, he will keep these foreign merchants.

With these businessmen, the Song Dynasty could continuously receive various news, which was very fast and very authentic.

This is a priceless treasure!

He felt that Shen An's threat was too clumsy, so he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

Goryeo businessmen are the most unscrupulous, so Zhang Baba believes that he can get the truth from him.

Sure enough, the Korean businessman had a flattering look on his face before he even opened his mouth.

"Noble people, villains... villains are willing to increase prices, villains are eager to increase prices!"

What?

Zhang Baba felt that there was something wrong with his ears.

He poked his ear with his finger and said coldly: "Are you willing to increase the price? Are you trying to trick someone?"

Is there any businessman willing to purchase goods and increase the price?

If so, he must be a lunatic and a fool.

Do you think I, Zhang Baibian, am a fool?

There was murderous intent in his eyes, and he shouted: "Take it, I will execute you myself!"

Since you are so stubborn, I'm afraid it won't work if you don't take action!

His body trembled slightly and his face turned slightly red.

Killing can be addictive, and torture can be addictive.

Zhang has been addicted for eight years.

Six big men strode towards them, their murderous looks making people frightened.

"Noble..."

The Korean businessman was grabbed by the arms of two people. He felt that his lower abdomen was swollen and his feet were as soft as soup cakes.

His eyes were full of fear, his mouth was open, and drool was flowing from the corners of his mouth.

"Noble people, villains voluntarily raise prices, villains do it voluntarily..."

"How dare you speak harshly at this time..."

Zhang Baba was furious, but the two businessmen over there were also crying.

"The villain is voluntary, the villain is voluntary."

"..."

This is wrong!

Someone has been watching Zhang for eight years. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

This is really wrong!

They are businessmen, and businessmen are the least ethical, let alone fearless of death.

There were two rows of big men on the side, plus a sinister Zhang Ba8en. Not to mention a businessman, even a warrior would have weak legs when he came in.

But these three businessmen seemed to be possessed by heroes, and they refused to change their words.

Zhang Baibian's eyelids twitched and he asked: "Why do you volunteer?"

Only lunatics and fools give money voluntarily.

The three businessmen rushed to speak.

"Taizhao was so brilliant that he taught me how to do business. I just felt enlightened and wished I could listen to Taizhao's teachings every day..."

My body is not very comfortable, but the fourth update has been delivered. Good night everyone.
