029 His poison, my fairy grass

Why did Emperor Shenzong and Wang Anshi's changes run aground, isn't it that they have infringed on too many vested interests, and they can't make up for it. In the past, Hong Tao was helpless against this situation, because he could not find an equally lucrative deal in a short period of time for those interest groups to share in exchange for their support for the New Deal.

But now there is, it's the rice sac flower!

With this thing, there is no such thing as salt, iron, tea, etc., to see anything. In the long run, salt, iron, and tea are indeed profitable, but in terms of short-term and fast, the speed of making money, and short-term benefits, no commodity can compare with rice sac flowers.

It's not its flowers, it's these pastes that are extracted from the flowers.

As long as these things are trafficked to the other side of the border in the name of special herbs, it will not be long before the military, civilians, officials, and perhaps their emperors and concubines of the Western Xia and Liao States will be inseparable.

Smoking this addicted person can skip food, work, the country, and his wife and children, but he can't do it, and he can't leave a meal.

In this way, the sales of flower paste must be a big drop, and the price will not be too cheap, what are the benefits...... Hong Tao can't even count how big it is. As long as the various forces in the DPRK and China can be persuaded to switch to the rice bag flower paste, they will be partially compensated for the benefits they lost in the New Deal.

Moreover, this thing is not only a profiteering commodity, but also a weapon of war that kills people without seeing blood and destroying the country without a knife.

If the high-level officials, the army, and the civilians of the Western Xia and Liao countries were infected with this kind of thing, with their current fragile productive forces, they would have to collapse the country's economy and hollow out the people's bodies in a few years. It cannot be said that it does not cost a single soldier, anyway, the combat effectiveness of the army and the staying power of the country must be greatly reduced.

The weakness of the enemy is the strength of oneself. With a large amount of foreign exchange income and horses invested in military spending, even if the army of the Great Song Dynasty is wasted, can't it beat a group of addicts?

In fact, the army of the Great Song Dynasty was really not wasteful, whether it was with the Western Xia or the Liao State, or even the later Jin State and the Mongol State, they were all victorious and defeated, and it took hundreds of years to be dragged down by the four countries with wheel warfare. If it's one-on-one, maybe who's going to make it to the end.

There are not only interests that can be obtained, but also the ability to enrich the country and strengthen the people to eliminate external troubles, Hong Tao really can't think of a reason for those Song Dynasty intellectuals to oppose it. Morality? Morality is too fragile in the face of huge interests, and it alone cannot stop the evil of human nature.

Besides, I am afraid that none of the Song people know what the effect of this kind of thing will be, and they can't realize how terrible it is by imagination alone.

You can not tell them the whole truth first, just pick a good one to say, and wait for the effect of the ointment to be presented on a large scale, and the scholars and doctors are also involved, who wants to say that the ban is afraid that it will be the same as what happened to Wang Anshi now, and he will be sprayed to death by 10,000 people with foaming stars.

Otherwise, it's good to say that this matter is good anywhere, but I can't escape the blame for the black pot. Because the initiator is himself, and it is still himself who even fooled everyone into doing it.

In the end, when everyone realizes that this is a demon, who do you guess they will put the blame on in order to prove their innocence and innocence? Then you don't need to ask, it must be your own crazy horse, there is really no second qualified candidate.

It's too easy for this person to learn bad, and it's very, very difficult to get better after it's bad. I can be regarded as a hand-in-hand teaching of how the scholars and doctors of the Great Song Dynasty should pit people, and they are silent.

But after they learned this set, the Great Song Dynasty was saved, and their teacher became a scapegoat. They will never remember their original intentions, they must criticize themselves in order to stand morally, and it cannot be said that the emperor made such a harmful thing for the sake of strengthening the country.

"Your life is really hard, it's better to be born in an ordinary family."

Hong Tao basically didn't sleep this night, tossed the princess for half a night, and after she was paralyzed and asleep, she looked at the red little face on the side, how to think about how she was not worth it.

"Official, official, the rich sister is asking to see her outside, she wants to ask if she is going to the Flying Eagle Club today?" The sky was cloudy and Hong Tao closed his eyes, and before he could breathe, Lian'er got in, and put her mouth in her ear.

"Changing clothes...... Call the gardener and prepare the horse to go to the country! When he opened one eye, Hong Tao really didn't think about it, but when he remembered that the rice sac flower was still unattended, he had to get up.

That is their own nursery, which must be protected as soon as possible, and cannot attract attention yet. There are many kinds of rice sac flowers, and not all of them can be boiled into flower paste, and not every one has such a strong effect. I have a good life, and the varieties I encounter are very good.

Coming to the courtyard behind Guozijian again, Hong Tao breathed a sigh of relief. This road is not a galloping horse, but it is also a trotting all the way, and the rice sac flowers are still as lush as yesterday.

"Goro, Rokuro, from here you start to grow rice sacs, Madame likes it. I want the seeds of this bush, they have to be exactly the same, can I? ”

The gardener was a brother and a eunuch, one of the princess's dowrymen. They are not very old, only about forty, but they have been serving flowers in the palace for more than thirty years. I have been doing this job with the old eunuch since I was seven or eight years old, and it is estimated that I can only do this job in this life, and I must be professional.

"Back to the big officials, the rice sacs will be able to fall in a few more years, each bag will be 100,000, and the whole courtyard will be spread at this time next year, but I don't know why the eldest princess likes this flower......"

Since they were eunuchs who watched the princess grow up, the two gardeners naturally knew what the eldest princess liked and disliked, and they had some objections to the statement of the concubine.

"Official, did I use to be like this?" Hong Tao grinned, those who lie are afraid of those who are more truthful. You say that you two gardeners are so idle for the princess, let you do whatever you want, and give a penny of salary, you have to say a lot of words, no wonder the old Wang Shu repaired you, you deserve it!

"......" The two gardeners shook their heads together as they said and said how the flowers had turned to the people again.

"That's not the end, I can become a princess, I can't change! Plant these flowers, and next year I will find a lady for each of you, and I will never say anything

! ”

To say that Hong Tao is much worse than Wang Xu, and there are more thieves. At present, he still has to rely on these two florists, and wants them to do their best to cultivate flower seedlings for themselves, and coercion alone is definitely not enough, the most effective is favor.

What do eunuchs lack most? It's really not money, it's the life of a normal person. They can't marry a daughter-in-law, but that doesn't mean they don't want to. As for whether the girl is willing to marry someone else, it's not something you need to consider.

Didn't the ancients say that things should be done in a hurry. The two future eunuchs and daughters-in-law can be regarded as contributing their youth to the rise and fall of the country, and they can't let themselves do all the sacrifices. Which of these two girls will be so unlucky, it depends on fate.

"The villain will do his best, and he will not dare to let the big officials and the eldest princess bother! Rokuro ...... If you don't pick flower seeds, you can't land on the ground! ”

Hong Tao's big pie was a little greasy, and he directly smashed the two gardeners stupidly. is still more clever when the elder brother is more clever, according to the younger brother who is about to saliva to flow down the buttocks first kicked, and then ran out of the courtyard with his legs, and the shoes were thrown off.

"Why did your brother go?" Hong Tao was a little puzzled, as soon as he heard how his brother ran away, he left his younger brother alone, it was too righteous!

"Gorou went to ask for help, this land needs to be cultivated, watered, and fertilized, and it will be raised for a long time, and it will be good for sowing next year." While answering the horse's question, Rokuro took out a cloth bag and plunged into the flowers, not afraid of piercing.
