"Oh. That's the big deal. Liu Mu took the letter, looked at it and smiled: "Good thing, this is a great thing." ”

Baoqin didn't read the letter, but knew that the corners of Feng Zhidai's mouth were blistering, and it only took nine days to come from Lingnan all the way to Pegasus, which can be said to be a desperate run here.

From Lingnan to Chang'an, the road is not only 4,000 miles, but more than 500 miles a day in nine days.

According to Datang's reliance on horses, this speed is already extremely fast.

Feng Zhidai did not go to Sanyuan in person, it was indeed because of overwork, and he would recuperate in Chang'an.

Liu Mu took out two pages from the letter and handed them to Zheng Yuanxuan: "Old Zheng, you want to thank me for this matter." ”

Feng Ang's way of writing the letter adopts the method of Liu Mu, and the two things will never be written on the same page, in case the letter needs to be shown to other relevant people, then other unrelated things will definitely not be seen.

In this way, there is no need to fold up the parts that do not need to be known, and giving the letter directly also makes people feel a sense of trust.

Feng Zhidai rushed to Chang'an day and night, this was to ask for help, but Liu Mu asked the patriarch of the Zheng family to thank him. With doubts, Zheng Yuanxuan took the letter

After the paper blame of each event, Feng Ang will use a seal.

Zheng Yuanxuan first saw Feng An's seal, and then saw the content of the letter.

This is Feng An's headache, and in the end, the people of Lingnan have earned money, but they have nowhere to spend it.

"Hahaha." Zheng Yuanxuan laughed a few times: "The old man really wants to thank Liu Juma for this, so he ordered someone to stock up the goods, and wanted to come to my Zheng family and Xingyang, Hedong, Xu, Chen, Song, Bian and other prefectures, and gather forty boats of cloth and small household necessities within ten days to solve the urgent needs of the Yue Guogong." ”

Liu Mu also laughed a few times: "Forty ships are not enough, at least two hundred ships are needed." ”

"Why so much?" Zheng Yuanxuan was shocked.

You must know that the ship he is talking about is Feng An's new sea ship, a ship is 500 materials, and 500 materials can load 500 cubic feet.

This amount is almost 165 cubic meters in modern terms, 150 tons of pure water, and the actual cargo volume of the ship is almost 250 tons.

How this huge volume of cargo could not surprise Zheng Yuanxuan.

"Actually, it's not much, think about the amount of daily necessities and goods that Chang'an needs for a year. These 200 ships are the beginning, just the beginning. After Liu Mu finished speaking to Zheng Yuanxuan, he turned sideways and said to Baoqin: "Go to Chang'an and ask Chang'an Daily to publish a message in a large format, and the Donggang Shipping Division will bid for procurement, so that workshops with a scale of more than 50 workstations in Chang'an City will come to sign up for selection." ”

"Yes. Do you want to tell Feng Gongzi? ”

"Let him do this selection work, what he likes, what he picks, is qualified to supply Donggang Shipping Company."

"Yes." After hugging the qin, she turned around and left, and she would find someone to arrange for this.

Before the arrival of the Tang Dynasty, the workshops of the wealthy families of various families should be workshops to be precise, and the items produced were all for their own use, and the surplus was also bartered with other families in exchange.

It was also the willow wood that made the family's workshop truly become a workshop.

The Wang family, the Lu family and others all got some shares of Lingnan procurement, and Liu Mu did not give them a long-term contract, only to deal with the materials used in Lingnan for the New Year this time.

The materials for the coming year are ready to be made by the method of tendering.

Compare price, quality, and output.

The next day, Mo said that it was the people of Chang'an, that is, the Taiji Palace stopped for a day.

Originally, the third batch of coin flotillas that were ready to leave Lingnan stopped at the newly built Weiba Wharf, which was Guangyuntan, the main wharf of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty decades later.

The shutdown is not a big deal, but the bidding information on the Chang'an newspaper is.

Hundreds of thousands of wooden combs are needed, of which the cheapest miscellaneous wood combs cost 150,000, and the better peach wood, jujube wood, and more noble yellow sandalwood, etc., the number is amazing.

Then, small things like needles and thimbles are about boxes and boxes.

A box of needles is almost a thousand, and this is not a large box for retail at all.

And then there are hoes, all 100,000!

Li Shimin, who was sitting behind the throne, looked at the Chang'an newspaper in his hand, and asked very puzzled: "I heard that in the southwest of Lingnan, there is high-quality wood, and last time Lingnan cargo ships brought a lot. I thought that there was abundant wood over there and the quality was good, but I wanted to buy a wooden comb in Chang'an? ”

"Sage, the minister has inquired about the relevant documents. A variety of wood in Lingnan does not float in the water, and every time it goes north, it will be used as a ballast for freight. It is indeed a good wood, but it is certainly not cost-effective to make a comb from such wood, which is the wood for making fine furniture. "Some officials from the Ministry of Industry told me what they knew.

Someone stepped forward again: "Sage, the minister thinks that this is the move of the willow horse to feed the Chang'an workshop." ”

After many gossips finished speaking, Ma Zhoucai came out unhurriedly: "Sage, the ministers have said a lot, in fact, there is no process for processing combs in Lingnan, and the processing of combs by hand is time-consuming and laborious, and the cost is very high. It is far better to transport the wood to Chang'an and then buy a comb back, which is half cheaper than the local handmade one. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Li Shimin was very curious.

"Back to the words of the sage, only said that it is a comb and polishing, and there are one or two combs a day in the hand, and Chang'an uses animal-powered machinery, and a station can polish more than 100 a day. Of course, this refers to ordinary combs, such as green dragon wood (red sandalwood) and other precious woods, which are still finely made by hand, and one is more than a few dollars. ”

Ma Zhou spoke in detail about the knowledge of effective productivity.

At this time, a eunuch reported: "Sage, Liu Juma asks to see you outside the palace." ”

"Let him in." Li Shimin knows very well that all that Ma Zhou knows is from Liumu, since the main lord is here, then let Liumu talk about it himself.

Soon willow wood entered the temple.

After giving the salute, Liu Mu took out a watch seal: "Sage, the minister has a watch." ”

"Just say it, what's the matter?" Li Shimin asked Liu Mu to speak.

Liu Mu said: "The minister's table is to ask the saint to arrange three official positions. They are Tanzhou Economic Strategy, Hangzhou Economic Strategy, and Fuzhou Economic Strategy. For next year's plan, the minister also wants to arrange Qingzhou economic envoys and Zhengzhou economic envoys after July next year. ”

"Tell me briefly, what are these people going to do?"

"Yes!"

Liu Mu took off his cross bag, then took out a thick stack of paper and began to read: "Sage, first of all, say that Tanzhou is a strategic envoy." The minister thought that Tanzhou was the center, and the surrounding seven states did not know how many prefectures and counties. ”

Liu Mu's sentence didn't know how many prefectures and counties caused a burst of laughter in the court.

However, an official from the Ministry of Officials stepped forward to tell Liu Mu how many prefectures and counties there were in this area, among which there were upper, middle and lower prefectures, how many upper, middle and lower counties, and how many officials there were, and so on.
