Chapter 69: The Leaker
It's a good opportunity, but is it a good opportunity with Wang Ju's hint? As long as the imperial court has the heart and sends twenty daredevils, 10,000 yuan can be done.
However, Wang Ju did not hear any movement.
In fact, Zhao Zhen can't be blamed, if it's true, then the Song Dynasty must have a series of follow-up measures after killing Li Liangzuo without hiding Pang in order to maximize the benefits, so the ministers must be convened to discuss. But......
Zhao Zhen couldn't be more bitter.
This is a living example of this.
Therefore, if Cheng Kan dares to tell the truth to Wang Ju, Wang Ju will dare to tell him the truth. After all, he is now a Song person, and he also wants the Song Dynasty to be good.
As long as the truth is told, Cheng Kan will make a choice, not to alarm the court, and to go it alone, just like Chong Shiheng. And if there is no accident, Zhao Zhen will die immediately, and the Song Dynasty will not agree to the eventful autumn.
Then it is not advisable to occupy Hengshan, although this may be the best policy, but it is necessary for the Song Dynasty to support a large number of materials and troops, and it is impossible to rely on the strength of the army of the Yanyan Road and several states, but it will cause a rout.
It is also not advisable to transfer the various ministries, once they are taken in, it will be tens of thousands of people, and the Yanyan Road cannot be settled, so they must be resettled elsewhere, so they will have to be reported to the imperial court.
But there is still a strategy, pretending to grant some support, let the light mud side send troops to Lingxia, and take in some of his family members, and the result is that the light mud side will be defeated.
However, the operating space remained, and the unstable Li Liangzuo regime was dealt a heavy blow, and the Hengshan Zhuqiang was also divided, and the strength of Yan Yanlu was enough.
It is also a great achievement, no less than a great achievement of the world's balance and anti-intermittent scheme!
But Cheng Kan didn't say anything, and Wang Ju had no choice but to leave.
Later, Cheng Kan reported to the imperial court, and also mentioned the matter of horses, no matter what he thought of Wang Ju, these two articles were considered desirable by Cheng Kan.
Zhao Zhenxun received his recital, which is a secret recital. He also punished the mistakes he made last time, so he only summoned a few bigwigs from the two provinces to come over and discuss.
Someone agreed, someone objected, and again began to rip off.
But it's secret, and the outside world doesn't know about it. But the strange thing is that such a secret news was actually known to the Western Xia side less than two months before Cheng Kan wrote the book.
Li Liangzuo was frightened, and immediately sent someone to seal the officials on the side of the light mud, and transported a sum of money to win over the chiefs of various departments in Hengshan.
By April, the various departments of Yokoyama had immediately settled down, and no one had any objections.
Cheng Kan was dumbfounded, there was a harvest, under the operation of Cheng Kan, he got more than 2,000 horses from Hengshan, if it wasn't for the news leakage, as long as Cheng Kan kept transporting food to Hengshan, maybe a year later, Cheng Kan could get tens of thousands of good horses.
Cheng Kan's troubles are still to come.
This matter was also learned by Sima Guang, who was a appeasement faction of someone, so he hated Cheng Kan.
Cheng Kan's three-year term of office was up, he did well in Yanzhou, and the imperial court considered that there was no one to replace him, so he added the Wu'an Jiedu envoy and let him work for another three years. Then stay for it.
But Sima Guang connected two books: Cheng Kansu has no talent...... In this case, the old and sick are especially mediocre, and they are in Yan Yan and stealing peace, in order to spend the sun and the moon, they are slow by the soldiers and despised by Rong Zhai......
Cheng Kanjianjie was re-appointed, not in line with public expectations, and begged to chase his previous fate...... He thinks he is old and decrepit, afraid of being pointed at by others, and is appeased by special affairs, and flatters the small group......
This is even more ruthless than scolding my mother, Cheng Kan almost fainted, Sima boy, where did I offend you.
No one listened to him, but as a result, Song Shenzong took the throne, Sima Guang played again, and simply turned out the matter of the light mud side, "I heard that the ministers of the border said that Zhao Liangzuo would be on the side of the light mud, and wanted to use the people of Hengshan to attack and forgive Zuo to return to his fate." The imperial court ordered recruitment. The conspirator only speaks of his benefit, but does not say that he harms......"
The truth was revealed, and it turned out that Sima Guang hated Cheng Kan for the sake of light mud.
Not long after Zhao Ji succeeded to the throne, because this matter was secret, Zhao Ji didn't know, so he didn't understand, what kind of light mud was on the side, so he asked people to go down to investigate.
This investigation was quickly found out, if no one leaked the secret, the Xixia side would not react so quickly. And the degree of leakage is unimaginable, almost no less than getting the news in the front, and the back is using a fast horse to inform Western Xia.
As an extremely enterprising emperor, the regret can be imagined. But Zhao Ji was not stupid, and immediately thought of who leaked the secret to Xixia, and then thought of Sima Guang's jumping up and down during that time.
So he was furious and asked Wen Yanbo: "Light mud Huai side, how can Sima Guang know it?" ”
This was a secret recital, Zhao Zhen had only consulted with a few prime ministers, and Sima Guang held the position at that time only in the Zhiyuan and did not participate. Therefore, Sima Guang's recital is extremely strange.
Wen Yanbo said: "At that time, because of his mother's funeral, the minister was keeping filial piety at home, and he didn't know about it. ”
Zhao Ji summoned Sima Guang again, but Sima Guang not only did not answer, but asked: "Zhao Liangzuo called his ministers to pay tribute, and it is not appropriate to induce his rebels to prosper the border affairs." ”
After a great reason, Song Shenzong made him dizzy, and he forgot what he was doing when he summoned him into the palace, so he had to say: "In addition, people spread their ears in vain." ”
Sima Guang struck while the iron was hot, and said: "Outsiders say that Yang Ding, Gao Zunyu, Xue Xiang, and Wang Chongjian are strategies. ”
He also said how bad these people were, and they wanted to rebel against these four people. But Cheng Kan is dead, and it doesn't work to pursue Cheng Kan, so simply get rid of a few radical ministers and generals.
…………
"The horse buying agency has finally been suspended." Zhu Huan said.
"That's a good thing." Wang Ju said. He didn't know what was going on behind the scenes, and he really thought that Cheng Kan was cooperating with Ouyang Xiu to place a horse prison in Hedong.
I am not very in favor of the Song Dynasty's horse breeding kings, especially the government's horse breeding.
As long as the government is raising horses, the more they raise, the more they lose, it is better to be like the original, Zhu Huan gets two or three hundred good horses every year, because the number is small, and there is no pastoral supervisor in Yanzhou, so Cheng Kanxun is handed over to the army, which has more or less played a role.
"Cheng Gong is also kind." Zhu Huan said again: "I heard that the imperial court let Cheng Kan stay in Yanzhou for another term, which is also a blessing for Yanzhou. ”
Cheng Kan asked him to take the lead in buying a horse club, Zhu Huan was afraid that something would happen, and there was no accident, Zhu Huan thought about the lack of horses in the Song Dynasty, and also agreed with Cheng Kan's measures.
Wang Ju was also silent.
In his heart, the Song Dynasty would rather not want officials such as Ouyang Xiu, Han Qi, and Shi Jie, and they could not miss Cheng Kan, who may be unknown in later generations, they may have many shortcomings, but they are not big-mouthed, and they are all doing practical things.
Think about Fang Du in the Tang Dynasty, and then think about Li Xin, the holy minister who led the rule of Xianping, the pinnacle of the Song Dynasty, what they said, and even everyone doesn't know what they did.
Also, when Liu Mo was in power, the four sages Wang Zeng, Li Di, Zhang Zhibai, and Du Yan.
Including Lu Yijian, he was not a big mouth, and it was only under the constant attacks of Fan Zhongyan and Kong Daofu that he attracted the attention of future generations.
Cheng Kan and Wang Ju were not cold, and Cheng Kan did not do a good job in Yanzhou to build roads, build city defenses, soothe the people, and even write to the imperial court to ask for the reuse of some capable generals.
Only then did Zhu Huan get down to business: "Look, this is the best paper." ”
Wang Ju's idea was bamboo paper.
The materials used to make paper in the Song Dynasty were varied, such as rattan, hemp, sick cocoons, tree bark, straw, and even water moss. However, most of them are made of ancient rattan and hemp, or sandalwood bark and bark. The yield of hemp is low, and the number of ancient vines is limited, so the paper made is expensive and thick, thick enough to be worn as clothes and paper armor.
Bamboo paper technology began to appear in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but the whiteness is not enough, and the paper lacks toughness, "such as a secret book, no one dares to open it, the cover will crack casually, and it will no longer stick." Cai Xiang was greedy for small and cheap officials, and once used this crude bamboo paper to write official documents, but as a result, "the prison lawsuit is not resolved, and the case has been scattered", so it was banned. However, the technology is constantly improving, and by the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, this kind of bamboo paper can barely be used.
Wang Ju knows this history, in fact, he only needs to start from three aspects, one is to change the raw material to clinker, and repeatedly cook and rinse the bamboo material to improve the purity of the fiber; the second is to use the natural bleaching method to make the clinker exposed to the sun and rain for a long time to make fine white bamboo pulp; The third is to increase the strength of scooping.
Raw meal can also be used, although the color is yellow, it is suitable for printing paper, but it is necessary to add a process, put a treading trough, and then use manual repeated stepping on the material, the fiber can be stripped out, fully broomed, increase toughness, and the cost is much lower than clinker paper.
Wang Ju asked Zhu, Zhao and Li to go to Hangzhou to study these two kinds of bamboo paper.
However, there are many specific processes, according to the "Heavenly Things", there are seventy-two processes.
Therefore, Wang Ju chose the address in Fuyang, not only the later generations of Fuyang and Jiajiang bamboo paper are good, the transportation is up, the cultural foundation is also good, and the paper industry here is relatively large, from Yuezhou to Hangzhou out of a lot of famous paper, there are also some bamboo paper process foundation.
Several families listened to Wang Ju's advice, sent people to Hangzhou immediately, had to grab new bamboo, and then bought a bamboo mountain on the bank of the Zhejiang River in Fuyang, and hired more than a dozen papermakers at a high price, with a very high salary, but signed a sky-high compensation contract, as long as the workshop continues to pay this high salary, these papermakers can not leak the technology, otherwise they have to compensate the workshop 100,000 yuan.
Fuyang Zhixian couldn't cry or laugh when he looked at the deed paper.
Bamboo paper, what a good thing, so I agreed.
The reason why Wang Ju came up with this bamboo paper is also worried, at the moment he is not financially tight, but salt is not a long-term solution, but God knows when he will be a jinshi, even if he is a jinshi, if his ranking is not high, he has to grind it slowly.
Even if you become a magistrate, like Zhang Zai, the cost will be enough. It's not easy to become a magistrate. Either the top ...... That one will sweat dripping.
And the appearance of bamboo paper is also helpful for readers.
There are still some faint thoughts in his heart, even if he is an official, he must have resources in his hands, if these merchants are tied to their chariots, they are also a resource, but that is still far away.
Wang Ju tried it, then looked at the craftsmanship brought by Zhu Huan, thought for a long time, pointed out a few, and asked Zhu Huan to send someone down to improve it next year.
It can be used, but it has not yet reached the goal in Wang Ju's heart.
This is not in a hurry, Wang Ju said in the first month that it may be next year, and it has already come out, and everyone can afford to wait.
Zhu Huan said again: "Has Zhang Gong repaired that book?" ”
"I'll ask," but Wang Ju went to Zhang Zai's house and brought another thing.
