Chapter 256 - Transactions (16)
"It's been almost ten days since the food stamp proposal came out, and the Eastern Romans haven't come to us yet. Director Xie, do you want that girl to help us contact the people of the Eastern Roman Empire. ”
"Are you doing this for her death?"
The conversation between Yeluhong and Xie Song surprised the officials present, and after a pause, Sima Rong burst out laughing, and the people in the venue immediately looked over. Seeing everyone's gaze, including Yeluhong and Xie Song's, projected on his face, Sima Rong immediately explained: "I just think the Eastern Roman court is ridiculous. ”
"Not ridiculous." Xie Song said: "They are stronger than the barbarians. At least I know that we are not nepotism, so I don't dare to come and test it easily. ”
Yeluhong was a little suspicious that Xie Song meant something, but Xie Song's words did not contain a gun or a stick, and what he said was also true. However, Yeluhon still had a pimple in his heart, and after receiving Yang Congrong's letter, he carefully considered it and transferred Xie Song from Western Rome back to Athens. Yang Congrong has the grace to promote Yeluhong, so he naturally doesn't want to see Yeluhong do bad things. This is not enough for Yeluhong to think clearly. After Xie Song was transferred back, Yeluhong had a long talk with Xie Song in private, and Yang calmly pointed out the direction, and Yeluhong also felt that his disagreement with Xie Song was probably because of his personality.
Xie Song himself admits that he just likes to push and watch things develop according to their laws. Yeluhong also knew that he was never in this mood, and the way he could accept it was to hold things firmly in his hands and let things go in the direction that Yeluhong expected. It's really tiring, but not doing it will only make Yeluhon feel empty.
After this long talk, the mustard between the two has indeed disappeared a lot, Yeluhong criticized Xie Song for letting himself go, and Xie Song mocked Yeluhong for being blind and worried. On the bright side, at least the two no longer worry about the other party's deliberate stabbing or other evil intentions.
Sima Rong didn't know about the changes in the relationship between the two, and after listening to Xie Song's explanation, Sima Rong felt a little touched. The Sima family did have the opportunity because their ancestors defected to the Zhao official family, but the Sima family also clearly felt that the Zhao official family was not a cronyism. For this, the head of the Sima family appreciated it very much. The big family has seen so many winds and waves, and understands the sinister world. The head of the Sima family used the story in "Han Feizi: Difficult to Say" to warn the children in the family.
In the past, Mizi was favored by the monarch of the country. The Patriotic Decree stipulates that anyone who drives the king's car without permission shall be punished with punishment. Mi Zibian's mother was sick, and someone took a shortcut to inform Mi Zibian overnight, and Mi Zibian pretended to entrust Jun's order to drive Jun's car out. When Wei Jun heard about it, he thought he was virtuous and said, "What filial piety! For the sake of his mother, he forgot that he would commit a crime. On another day, he and Wei Jun were visiting the orchard, and they felt sweet when they ate peaches, so they didn't finish eating them, so they gave the remaining half to Wei Jun to eat. Wei Jun said: "How much you love me! Eat it for me regardless of my taste. When Mizi was flawed and weakened, he offended Wei Jun, and Wei Jun said: "This person had pretended to be the king's order to drive my car privately, and once gave me leftover peaches to eat." Therefore, although Mi Zibian's behavior is no different from the beginning, the reason why he was previously virtuous and later convicted was that Wei Jun's love and hatred had changed. Therefore, when favored by the monarch, the intellect appears appropriate and more intimate; When hated by the monarch, intellect appears to be inappropriate, condemned and alienated. Therefore it is said that those who talk about it must not fail to observe the love and hatred of the monarch, and then enter into it.
The Zhao official family is not affected by love and hatred, as long as ...... is not a barbarian and a traitor. Therefore, the Sima family is not afraid of the closeness to the Zhao official family before. The ancients once praised 'not avoiding relatives inside, not avoiding hatred outside'. This is obviously a misinterpretation by the laity, and if the purpose is to complete the work, affinity and hatred are not the criteria for consideration. It's not so much 'avoidance' as the fact that the person doesn't think about relatives and enemies at all when doing things.
"Sima Rong, what are you thinking?" Xie Song looked at Sima Rong with a thoughtful look on his face and couldn't help but ask.
Of course, Sima Rong didn't dare to say what he thought, this was all the teaching carried out in the family, and he would definitely be disgusted if he said it. He followed what he said before, "Director Xie, if we take the initiative to show favor to Eastern Rome, will they kick their noses in the face?" ”
Xie Song nodded, "It will definitely be so." ”
Yeluhong was annoyed when he heard this discussion of human nature, if the system was strict and he could abide by his duties, there would be no such. After finishing work, everyone should eat, drink, sleep, and sleep, so naturally there are no such troubles. He said: "That little girl named Sheila has contacted many nobles in the eastern region of Eastern Rome to ask us for cooperation, their sepiolite over there is not bad, and the sales in the Great Song Dynasty are getting better and better, how can we let them mine more." ”
Sepiolite is not a gemstone, light weight, good heat dissipation, because the stone is delicate and soft, so it can carve a very delicate and delicate relief pattern on the outer wall. Initially, sepiolite was not very popular. It wasn't until the craftsmen of the Great Song Dynasty discovered that the pipes carved from sepiomerite were very useful, and this thing quickly became popular in the Great Song Dynasty. Sepiolite pipes are used for a long time, and under the combined action of e-liquid and hand sweat, they will turn into a natural and deep brown-gold color, which will produce an inimitable texture level according to the texture of sepiolite, which makes many old smoking guns love it. Whether it is a rough stone, a crude pipe or a pipe carved by Eastern Roman craftsmen, it sold very well in the Great Song Dynasty.
Yeluhon didn't really care what would become of the Eastern Roman Empire, and his political achievements also cared about how much benefit he could create for the Great Song Dynasty. Currency reform is a painstaking and long-term process, especially when it comes to paper money issuance. Paper money appeared in the Great Song Dynasty from the Northern Song Dynasty, that is, after the Zhao official family came to power in the past 20 years, paper money really became the currency carrier of the Great Song Dynasty.
With this experience, Yeluhun just wanted to increase his income. He knew that he didn't have to expect any real use from Eastern Roman banknotes before he left office.
"This is up to Sheila." Xie Song replied.
As an organization that operates not on a personal relationship but on an institutional basis, the resolutions adopted by the province of Europa were quickly implemented. Xie Song's handwritten letter was delivered to Sheila on the third day. Sheila hadn't heard from Xie Song for a long time since she said goodbye to Xie Song at the docks. Seeing Xie Song tell Sheila lightly that he had returned to Athens to preside over the work of Eastern Rome, Sheila sighed very much in her heart. The Great Song Dynasty is worthy of being a powerful country, and if the Eastern Roman officials were urgently called back after being dismissed like this, the grass on the grave would probably be able to cover the feet at this time.
After sighing, she continued to read Xie Song's letter, and Xie Song's request made Sheila's eyes light up. Even though the province of Europa gave many concessions to the eastern aristocracy, at this stage the eastern Roman aristocracy was still simply giving. Grain cannot grow in one day and ripen the next day. Technical training also requires at least one season of training, and then at least two years of repetition before it can be truly mastered. Sepiolite is different for export, which is dug up and sent to the port to sell and immediately earns income.
After reading the letter a few more times, Sheila was sure that she had not mistaken what Xie Song meant. It happened that the Senate was adjourned, and Sheila stopped caring about the affairs of the Senate and went to Ankara by boat. Before leaving, Sheila hired Altai as a bodyguard, and Altai heard Sheila say that she would pay for it herself, so she just smiled and agreed.
When I arrived in Ankara, I saw a new building outside the city. Sheila saw the herbs and gourd signs on the wall from afar, and she was amazed that the province of Europa had actually built a hospital here. It doesn't look like it's small. Altai is well aware of the affairs of this hospital, and the safety and security of the hospital when it is built is the responsibility of the Altai organization. The Assassins' League acted as security guards at the hospital, which sounded comical and at the same time indescribably coordinated. The most reliable assassination organization in the entire Ankara region is the Ankara branch of the Assassin League, and the best doctors are in hospitals in Europa province. One kills and the other saves people, is there a more perfect combination than this?
When I arrived near the gate of the hospital, I saw people coming in and out, and it was very lively. In addition to the guards, there were also priests standing at the door, shouting to the people who came in and out, "God wants us to clean!" God wants us to be clean! Many of the people who came in and out of the hospital were still looking at ordinary farmers, and Sheila didn't expect them to come to the hospital for treatment. There was a great doubt in my heart.
It takes a lot of money to run a hospital, which requires high medical bills to keep the hospital afloat. It is that Dasong Medical is advanced, and the drugs are targeted for many diseases, and the treatment is still not cheap. The last time the office dispatched a doctor, she didn't charge for medical treatment, and Sheila knew that the office was mending the relationship with Sheila. But I didn't expect the office to act so quickly and actually start to provide medical care to ordinary farmers. Are farmers rich?
Less than a day after the news of Sheila's arrival in Ankara spread, the local nobles began to assemble. The nobles who came first immediately boasted to Sheila that they had helped build the hospital, "Elder, we all sent people to help build the hospital. The people at the hospital also assured us that not only could we go to the hospital for treatment when we were sick, but also the farmers in the territory could also go to the hospital for treatment with our signatures. ”
After listening to this explanation, Sheila understood why so many farmers were in and out of the hospital. The nobles then recounted with joy that the attitude of the peasants in the land had changed greatly since this incident, and that they were not only much more deferential to the nobles, but also less lazy when working.
After talking about his pride, the nobleman asked about the news that had reached Ankara, "Patriarch, what the hell is going on with this food stamp?" ”
After listening to Sheila's explanation, the nobles sincerely raised many questions. Sheila listened carefully and remembered, but told the nobles that there were not even people now, and they would wait until the nobles arrived. On the third day, when all the nobles who could arrive had arrived, Sheila stood up in front of everyone's gaze and began to tell her proposal.
