"The horse money has been read by the official, and some of the content is quite accomplished. If the official wants to negotiate a loan with the horse, is it feasible to invest in the woollen mill? What Zhang Dian said next made everyone even more confused, he actually wanted to borrow money from the horse to invest!
“…… Why not the Glass Workshop? A set of fully transparent glazed ware is sold for thousands of times in Kaifeng, wouldn't it make more money? ”
Hong Tao couldn't figure out what the prime minister wanted to explain, but he could test his original intention through the questions. If you want to invest, you must have an opinion on the project, if the view is reliable, it means that you have really considered it carefully, not to play on the topic.
The horse laughed, the most profitable in the world is none other than salt iron tea, especially salt. Although the glazed ware is good, few people buy it, and although the sweater knee pads are cheap, everyone can wear them, and it is clear which is better and which is inferior. Zhang Dan did not hesitate at all, and explained his investment philosophy in the simplest way.
"The chapter is amazing, and the lower officials admire it very much! When I am fortunate enough to meet at the house another day, I will definitely give the loan, but the interest will still be charged, and it will be in business. If it weren't for the emperor's frowning and impatient, Hong Tao would have applauded Zhang.
His analysis is very correct, the high unit price of things does not necessarily have a high profit, if you plan to do a hammer deal, of course it is best to sell glazed ware, but if you want to invest in the long run, the prospects of woolen mills are brighter.
It seems that the Song people's nature to be good at business is not bottom-up, but should be top-down. A group of economically minded officials can only educate more businessmen.
"In this way, the official thanked him in advance...... Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the strategy of the horse is feasible. It's a pity that this official doesn't have the ravines and courage of a horse, otherwise he would have asked a border state to follow this policy to benefit the country and the people! ”
After chatting about the loan, Zhang Duan shook his sleeves and solemnly bowed to Emperor Shenzong, which was regarded as an apology for the disrespect just now. Then he very clearly affirmed the proposal of Huangzhou's currency reform, and the evaluation was particularly high.
But the final result was not very optimistic, Zhang Dian and Wang Shao were in favor, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang had not yet calculated that they had to oppose it, but Wang Qi, who had always been an echo worm, suddenly hardened once. He also said that the matter was very high, and he had not made a decision for a while, and he had turned this court meeting into a fruitless one.
Of course, Hong Tao was not too disappointed, he didn't expect his proposal to be approved in a day, even if everyone present agreed, it would have to be combined under the court first, and after obtaining the approval of most of the main courtiers, it would be put to the court for formal discussion. This is standard procedure, or convention.
In view of his reputation in the court and the number of enemies, Hong Tao did not hope to complete the process according to the convention, and the final success or failure depended on the emperor's determination and means, with a probability of fifty each.
However, there is good news, and that is that it has inadvertently received strong support from Zhang. He is the head of the subordinate squire and the deputy prime minister, even if his influence in the court is not as great as that of Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, he will not have nothing at all, and it can be regarded as a favorable variable to some extent.
It was completely dark, and the emperor was tired, so he dismissed everyone, and the matter was discussed another day. Hong Tao can finally go home, thinking of his wife and daughter who he hasn't seen for two years, he really feels a little timid.
"Why are you still here? Didn't go home! But as soon as he got out of Donghua Gate, Hong Tao saw his carriage parked by the wall, two special forces part-time coachmen sitting in the front seat, still holding the reins in their hands, as if they were going to drive and run at any time, and Fu Ji leaned in the carriage and took a nap.
"Concubine...... I didn't dare to see the eldest princess...... "Seeing that the horse had returned, Fuji immediately ordered the coachman to leave, and she had a strong sense of resistance to this deep palace compound.
"Do you have someone to be afraid of? Hey, hey, hey...... The ancients had an ugly daughter-in-law who had to see her in-laws sooner or later, and this hurdle could not be avoided. Today, the official has already told the official about you, and he can't hide it if he wants to. The eldest princess is not a bad in-law, what are you afraid of! ”
The jumping girl in the north would be so afraid that she didn't dare to go home, which made Hong Tao feel very interesting, and at the same time relieved, if Fu Ji was not afraid of the eldest princess, it would be troublesome.
With the character of the eldest princess, she will definitely not be able to deal with it, and she is not good at palace fighting, and she will have to be a villain herself when the time comes. No matter how you talk about it, you can't let the eldest princess suffer, and it's a crime to bully honest people.
The home is still the same as before, but there are two more lanterns at the door, I think the eldest princess already knew that she had arrived in Kaifeng, so she deliberately kept it to illuminate.
"Why are you robbing the road!" Before the car stopped steadily, two people came out of the doorway, and Hong Tao knew him behind, and Wang Dalang, the groom in the house, he didn't change much.
The young man in front of him was angry, and he reached out to pull his arm without saying a word, and if the wasp was there, he would at least kick it out.
"Foolish! While going to ...... The official is not strange, he is the nephew of the villain. The eldest princess thought that she was stupid, and it was not good to make a living outside, so she stayed in the house to feed the horses. Don't look at him as a little stupid, but he is willing to work hard, and his work is still good. ”
Without waiting for Hong Tao to make a move, Wang Dalang grabbed the young man's neck, dragged him to the horse, and blocked him in the middle with his body to prevent him from approaching the car door again.
"What is he muttering?" People are separated, but the mouth does not stop. Hong Tao doesn't care about the many people in the house who lack hearts, but he must not tolerate some people who are not convinced. It's very unfriendly to see the way he came to tease himself just now.
“…… He had never seen an official, and he only said that the eldest princess was kind in his heart, so when he heard that the eldest princess was waiting for the official to come back, he was anxious to pull the official into the palace to meet him...... "Wang Dalang saw that the horse was a little unrelenting, for fear that a wrong sentence would make his nephew lose his errand.
"Hey, what's your name?" After listening to Wang Dalang's explanation, Hong Tao understood a little, this guy didn't know what a colt was, he only knew that the eldest princess let him eat, drink and live, and he was very loyal.
"Wang Qiu!" The young man really doesn't look like dementia, but his mouth is all exposed, and he is hard.
"Tennis! Why don't you call it badminton, then the official can whip you every day. This is for you to wear, and your uncle doesn't know how to add you a piece of clothing on a cold day, to help the official hold the box! ”
As long as he is loyal to the eldest princess, Hong Tao doesn't hate it, it seems that this tennis ball is not really stupid, he is a bit like Da Jiang, but the degree is a little more powerful and more confused.
It is said that God is fair, and if you close a door, a window will be opened. The brain of tennis is not very good, it is said that he had a fever when he was a child, but he has a lot of strength.
One of the four hard-shell suitcases in the left hand and one in the right hand, I still can't stand this new dress, so I picked up one with my arm and walked in front without any difficulty. Looking at Wang Dalang again, he moved a box, and he had to change his right hand to his right hand after a few steps in his left hand, and he was still crooked when he walked.
The family hasn't changed, but the daughter-in-law has changed. Hong Tao almost didn't recognize the eldest princess when he saw it again, she was a little like Lian'er when she was thirty years old, her face and waist were bulging, and only a pair of big eyes that could talk were still there.
"Hey, don't cry, let that fool see maybe he will beat up the official, he almost beat him at the door just now. Come, let the officials weigh it, how much meat has grown! ”
As soon as she saw the eldest princess's big eyes, she spoke again, and as she spoke, water bubbled out. Hong Tao couldn't see a woman crying the most, so he quickly picked up and walked to the house.
"Hey, I said you still want to escort the drop? Get out of here, or I'll be swishing official! ”
Hong Tao stopped after just two steps, took off the scorpion crossbow from his waist with one free hand, and gestured at the tennis ball behind him. This guy put the box in the house, and actually followed behind to enter the house, and there are no rules!
"Don't scare him...... Official, Ji took him out. "Not only Wang Qiu followed, but Fu Ji also followed stupidly.
But she woke up relatively quickly, and after realizing that something was wrong, she quickly used the silly boy as a shield, and she didn't make a big joke. Even if the horse marries a concubine, he can't go directly to the house, what does it matter if the three of them go in.
"Hey, it's all gone, lady, and there is no food, husband, I ate a bowl of soup cakes this day. Your eldest brother is too picky, just saying that he stays to eat, but he doesn't have a place to move. As soon as the door closed, Hong Tao collapsed on the chair like a deflated ball, but the eldest princess still didn't put it down, still holding it on her lap.
