With a soft click, Prime Minister Zhang Dian threw a copy of the "Republic of Business Covenant" that Ji Yi brought to the Prime Minister's Mansion on the desk.

"Hehe, this is a republic of hypocrisy, and it is to be ruled by the arch!"

Hearing Zhang Dian's evaluation, Ji Yi was stunned. He hadn't read the "Republican Commercial Covenant" at all, nor did he care about the shareholders' meeting of the Chamber of Commerce held in Panjiayuan - before Zhang Dian asked him to discuss how to make King Jian the emperor, he hung beams and stabbed shares at home all day long, how could he have the time to care about a "commercial treaty"?

Don't look at the fact that he was born in a wealthy merchant family in Pingjiang, but he himself is not a real businessman, and he is a typical scholar, who is an official in the examination, and his position and ministers are his goals. Therefore, the Ji family's participation in Jiehe Commercial Market was handed over to his cousin Ji Lei, and he didn't ask about it.

Today, it was only because I had to go to Zhang's house for the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet that I brought the "Republican Commercial Treaty" to Zhangdian for a while. I thought that Zhang Dian would pass it by just looking at it, but I didn't expect it to be extraneous.

"Remember, this Wu Dalang is the prime minister's talent!"

What Zhang Dian said next made Ji Yi even more surprised. I am the prime minister's talent! How could Wu Haogu be the prime minister's talent? Can he write splendid articles? Will he be able to get into the Jinshi?

"It's not an ordinary prime minister," Zhang Duan continued, "but the talents of prime ministers like Fan Wenzheng Gong and Wang Jinggong!" ”

What the? So powerful?

Zhang Dian looked at Ji Yi's confused appearance, and smiled: "You haven't watched the "Republic of Commerce", have you?" ”

Ji Yi smiled bitterly and nodded: "The juniors really haven't seen it." ”

"Look at it now, and you'll know when you look at it." Zhang Dian said, "With this "Republic of Commerce", Wu Haogu will be able to become famous in history. ”

Can you be a celebrity?

Ji Yi hurriedly took out the text of the "Business Contract" from Zhang Dian's hand, opened it, first read it at a glance and ten lines, and then carefully read it. The more I looked at it, the tighter my brow became...... Zhangdun's evaluation is correct, it is really "a republic of hypocrisy, and the arch is governed"!

There is a senate and a citizen (national) assembly, which can completely elevate the emperor Laozi! Isn't this a republic of hypocrisy, ruling by arches?

Of course, it is difficult to say whether it can really be "governed", but the implementation of the "Republic and Commercial Treaty" can theoretically achieve the goal of ruling by vertical arches. Even if you can't rule the world vertically, you can't rule the Jiehe commercial market - if the Jiehe commercial market really implements the "Republican Commercial Covenant", for the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, it is a "vertical arch", that is, you don't have to do anything, just collect money.

"How?" Zhang Dian asked, "Is it the founding of the sect?" Maybe a hundred years from now, someone will call Wu Haogu a martial artist! ”

Takeko?

Is that to treat Wu Haogu as a saint? Just him...... Can you be a saint?

Ji Yi shook his head: "Xianggong, the younger generation thinks that the "Republic Commercial Covenant" proposed by Wu Haogu is very inappropriate. ”

"Wrong?" Zhang Duan looked at Ji Yi with interest, "What do you say?" ”

"Isn't that clear?" Ji Yi gritted his teeth and said, "This "Republic Commercial Covenant" is to be executed in Jiehe Commercial City!" If the commercial market can be developed and expanded, and even the great rule can be achieved, won't it prove the feasibility of the "Commercial Covenant" and the feasibility of the hypocrisy of the republic?

If it proves that you can be false, wouldn't that be ......"

Isn't it? Ji Yi couldn't say it for a while. said that Wu Haogu was a rebellious minister and thief, but it doesn't seem to be. If the country is governed according to the method of the "Republic and Commercial Treaty", it will be thirty-three patriarchs and important ministers to discuss politics and supervise a prime minister - now there is only one prime minister in the Great Song Dynasty, and there can be no group of patriarchs supervising it! Therefore, Zhang Dian cannot say that Wu Haogu, who presided over the signing of the "Republic Commercial Treaty", is a chaotic minister and thief, otherwise people will think that he is afraid of the supervision of important ministers......

Moreover, the "Republic Commercial Treaty" said that it was a "commercial treaty", and it didn't care about the affairs of the imperial court at all, so why bother mediocrities with themselves?

Zhang Dian sighed and said with a wry smile: "That's why the old man said that he can go down in history...... You and I are not as good as you! ”

"Xianggong, you can't let him do anything wrong!" Ji Yi said anxiously.

Zhang Dian smiled bitterly: "If you don't let him do it, what else can you do?" Is the Jiehe Commercial Market closed? Can this market be closed? It's closed, not to mention what will happen to the Liao side now, if there is a big chaos in the north in the future, can the situation of the east and west roads by the river support the Northern Expedition? ”

Listening to Zhang Dian's words, Ji Yi was stunned. Isn't it, even if the Jiehe Merchant City is a flood beast, it can only be raised now! Only by raising the Jiehe Commercial City can you have anything to ask for during the Northern Expedition in the future. You strangled it to death now, who will supply logistics when you invade Liao in the future? Can you do it by Hebei East Road? It's impossible!

And...... Without the port and attached shipping capacity of Jiehe Commercial City, even after the recovery of Yanyun, how can the food gap of one million stones a year be filled?

If you can't make up for it, won't the gang of heroes in Yanyun take the opportunity to rebel? That's worse than a hypocrite republic!

"Xianggong, then can we have the "Republic Treaty"?" Ji Yi thought about it and asked again.

"Really?" Zhang Dian smiled, "Do you want Wu Haogu to monopolize the power in Jiehe Shang City?" ”

It doesn't seem to work either! Jiehe Shang City is such a place, it can't become Wu Haogu's "domain town", which also allows him to monopolize power for 20 years, and then the top and bottom are his people, if the Liao State is in chaos again, Wu Haogu may be able to take Jiehe Shang Market as the center and establish a new Youzhou Town, and he will become Wulu Mountain......

It's not right, Wu Haogu probably has no future, this time he has made the "first evil", unless Zhang Dian can really arch King Jian to power...... Ji Yi thought to himself: Why don't I go to Jiehe Commercial Market when the time comes! From my point of view, I won't let the way of the Hypocrite Republic make a big fuss.

"Remember, the old man has no choice but to take this Jiehe Commercial Market now," Zhang Dian said with his forehead pressed, "and I have to let the Republican Commercial Covenant be implemented there." But you must solve this hidden danger in the future, and in any case, you must not let the "Republic Commercial Treaty" mess with the hearts of the people in the world.

This hypocrisy is a republic, and it is good to be cured by hanging the arch, but after all, it is not in line with the ancestral family law of my Great Song Dynasty. ”

Zhang Dian, the pioneer of the change, is now actually talking about the ancestral family law! It seems that he really saw that there was something wrong with this "Republic Treaty". However, Zhang Dan's vigilance against the "republic" is still not enough, far better than those princes and brothers who were not in the last years of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

After all, he didn't know that there was a republican system in the world that could do without the emperor, and in his understanding, even if the "Republican Commercial Treaty" made a big fuss, it was just a power to discuss politics in addition to the monarch's power and the minister's power.

If this martial artist was born decades ago, maybe he could discuss it with Wang Jinggong......

"Juniors understand." Ji Yi replied very solemnly.

Zhang Dian nodded, and asked again, "By the way, how did that happen?" ”

That matter is naturally the matter of deceiving King Duan into leaving the house at a critical moment!

Today, when Zhang Xuan was in the last court, he found that the spirit of the official Zhao Xu was a little worse, and when he thought of the many red tapes that Zhao Xu would face in the next ten days, Zhang Xuan was very worried that Zhao Xu would suddenly fall!

"It's all in place." Ji Yi said, "I guarantee that we can't trace it." ”

"Good!" Zhang Dian squinted his triangular eyes and looked at Ji Yi, "Go ahead, the old man's status today is your future status!" ”

Ji Yi stood up and bowed, "Thank you for cultivating Xianggong!" ”

Zhang Dian smiled: "What do you mean? Let's call it Grandpa Yue. ”

"Whoa."

……

"The ministers and martial arts have visited Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother."

Wu Haogu finally saw the sick official Zhao Xu and the increasingly blessed Empress Dowager Xiang in Anshoutang outside the inner east gate, the sorrowful Concubine Zhu, and the young and beautiful Empress Liu.

The royal Chinese New Year's Eve feast is set up in several small halls outside the inner east gate. Because the inner east gate is the dividing line between the inner and outer palaces. After entering the inner east gate, it is the harem, not to mention that Wu Haogu can't enter, even Duanwang Zhao Ji can't enter.

Therefore, when the official Zhao Xu dies and listens to the queen mother, the place where the hundred officials go to court will not be the Wende Hall (the place where they usually live), but will be moved to the inner east gate.

In addition, there is no Chongzheng Hall to ask the right question. At that time, the question between the queen mother and the important ministers will also be carried out in the palace near the inner east gate.

At the same time, the Inner East Gate Division, which controls the Inner East Gate, will also become a rather confidential yamen.

"Wu Haogu, let's be even." Zhao Xu opened his mouth weakly, "I have read your "Republic of Business Covenant", it is very good." It seems that I underestimated you before. ”

"Your Majesty has won the prize." Wu Haogu said a little weakly, "The 'Republic of Commerce Covenant' was not made by the minister alone, but was discussed by the thirty-three shareholders of the Jiehe Chamber of Commerce. ”

"Hehe," Zhao Xu smiled, "Do you think I don't know that these are all terms that you proposed first, and then call those shareholders to discuss them?" ”

"Your Majesty." Wu Haogu hurriedly sent a sycophant.

"Emperor, what you said about "Gong...... What is the "Covenant of Peace"? The Empress Dowager suddenly interjected at this time.

The old lady was very familiar with the health of the official Zhao Xu - the medical officers of the Tai Hospital reported every day, and they were quite not optimistic - so she knew that she would soon be able to listen to the government, so she began to pay attention to national affairs.

"It's a ......," Zhao Xu pondered for a moment, "It's a way to manage Jiehe Shang City in an orderly manner." ”

Wu Haogu breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Zhao Xu's vigilance against the "republic" is not high, and he didn't see that he was actually a chaotic minister and thief......

"Oh," nodded to the Queen Mother, "you can govern one side at such a young age, and you can be regarded as a genius." However, you will eventually lack a background, and it will not be of great use, if you can read more books in Jiehe, and take the Jinshi exam in the future, maybe there will be a day when you will be recommended to the two mansions. ”

"Wechen will definitely read more in the future." Wu Haogu bowed to the Queen Mother for another week. Obviously, the Empress Dowager Xiang did not treat Wu Haogu as an outsider - in fact, Wu Haogu and the Empress Dowager Xiang are also related, the Xiang family and the Pan family are both wealthy families in the Daimyo Mansion, and they are both generals, and the two sides have long been relatives of each other. Therefore, after Wu Haogu married Pan Qiaolian, he was considered a person in the circle of the Great Song Dynasty's generals......
