Cao Qianli had foreseen this, Yang Zhi had been letting Lei Heng keep an eye on the Taiping Firm's every move, and the news he got was actually more accurate than Fan Shiyan; Yang Zhi even guessed that Runzhou's idea was probably to let many Qingtang merchants go to Chengdu or Guanzhong to trade through contact, so as to reduce their dependence on Qinzhou and break the monopoly of horses in Shaanxi.

For Yang Zhi, he is not worried about these things, of course he will not pursue them, the person who can direct Zhao Lingxuan to be sure is either rich or expensive, even if he is clearly begging in front of him, he can only do it to the letter, and these businesses are not given away in vain, Qinzhou can make money here. Of course, Fan Shiyan's tea and horse division is in charge of the yamen, so naturally he also has to show his authority, so Fan Zhixu, who is still wandering around Qinzhou, did not appear today.

Looking at the solemn faces of both parties, Yang Zhi was a little amused, coughed and asked, "What is the problem?"

"There's no problem, it's just that Xia Guan has some ideas. Fan Shiyan's face was suddenly full of smiles, a guy who had always been full of seriousness, suddenly smiled and spoke, which made Zhao Lingyun have a bad feeling; Zhao Lingyan is the brother of Song Huizong, but he does not have the self-righteous feeling of ordinary magnates, knowing that his business still depends on the help of the two guys in front of him, Zhao Lingyan asked with some vigilance: "Can Lord Fan's thoughts be said later, let's talk about business first?"

Yang Zhi looked at Fan Shiyan, turned around and said haha: "Qingguo Gong, you are old and respectable, just help me listen to Lord Fan's high opinion, I have me in business, and I will not make you embarrassed." ”

Yang Zhi's guarantee Zhao Lingxin, whether it is his niece Zhao Yingluo's current business in Hangzhou, or Yang Zhi's north-south trip in the territory of the Dingbei Army, they are all the most famous businesses in the Great Song Dynasty, and this little contradiction between himself and Fan Shiyan is really nothing. Zhao Lingyun smiled, Fan Shiyan knew that the opportunity was rare, and hurriedly said: "My lord, Guogong, if Qinzhou wants to regain the prosperity of the past, there seems to be only one way, and that is to develop business like now, otherwise the Taiping firm will build a branch in Qinzhou and separate it from the business that supplies the army." ”

Yang Zhi looked at Fan Shiyan with a smile, and Zhao Lingyan suddenly understood, Fan Shiyan had hit the idea on the head of the Taiping Firm; the Taiping Firm was specially supplied to the Dingbei Army to attack Western Xia, and the Qinzhou Branch was dedicated to carrying private goods, and the clan's sales were not taxed, so it seemed that there was no difference, but Zhao Lingxun dared to conclude that as long as he did this, Fan Shiyan's tea and horse division would definitely treat the two families differently.

This shows that Fan Shiyan already knows that many of the private goods he carries are not from the clan; Zhao Lingyun is confident that Fan Shiyan has no real evidence, and he doesn't want to endorse the children of the clan under him, so he chose to shirk it, and said with a smile: "The Taiping business is from the Nantun Sect, and I can't be the master." ”

"The Qinzhou War has not yet begun, and there will be too many opportunities in the future. Yang Zhi knew that Fan Shiyan was not a pure businessman after all, and he had shortcomings in bargaining, but those children of the clan came to Qinzhou, how could they not have their own plans, Yang Zhi preemptively said: "When we take Helan Mountain, I can discuss with King Yun at that time, and let Dunzong Yuan open a carpet weaving workshop in Taiyuan, specializing in weaving carpets with white camel hair." ”

The white camel hair carpet is currently the patent of Western Xia, and the price is amazing, this is one of the baits that Yang Zhi has long conceived, first throw one out to see; Because of the scarcity of white camels, the carpet workshop proposed by Yang Zhi was almost a monopoly business, which belonged to the kind of business that made money lying down, Zhao Lingzhen knew that he could not refuse, and asked with a smile: "Yang Zhi, depending on what you mean, this attack on Western Xia is just a small fight, do you really want to recover Hebei?"

"That's for sure. Yang Zhi would not let go of this opportunity for propaganda, and hurriedly said: "It is all for the sake of the people of Hebei, the Jin people will not like farming, nor will they regard the people of Hebei as the same people as the Jurchens; even if the peace talks are true, there is really a so-called stable life, it will be a wanton expropriation, and as soon as there is a problem, the gap in Liaodong will be added to the people of Hebei." What's more, Jin Ren is not honest, if he really encounters a good year, I am afraid that he will have the idea of going south"

Zhao Lingyun laughed out loud, Yang Zhi said very implicitly, but in fact he was saying that the peace talks on the side of King Kang and Zhao Gou were bastard from the beginning, and the two sides did not have the basis for reaching an agreement at all; ”

Fan Shiyan said magnificently: "Wu Qimai will not reply hastily, Western Xia and our army have been defeated repeatedly, and they will definitely ask for help from the Jin State, but the Jin people do not agree, because they are afraid of losing an opportunity to send troops." It's just that our army's advance was too fast, and even Western Xia didn't react, and this time Jin Guo was caught off guard. ”

"I see. Zhao Lingyun's expression became serious, and he said seriously: "The saint is also afraid of long nights and dreams?"

Yang Zhi bowed his head and said: "Guogong, the situation in the world is changing all the time, if the Great Song Dynasty has no advantage, will the Jin people hold peace talks? Now that our army occupies Youzhou, there is no plan to continue to attack Lingzhou and Xiazhou for the time being, and it should be said that Jin Guo has missed the best opportunity. ”

Zhao Lingxun nodded in his heart, Yang Zhi is indeed as many people have evaluated, he is cautious and flexible, and there are often means that others can't think of, such as that Li Jin, now the Great Song Dynasty and Dajin are being implemented from south to north, but the territory of the Dingbei Army is not very common;

Zhao Lingxun is a person who has been in the sea for a long time, and said with a slight smile: "For peace talks, I think Lord Yang has a new idea, can you tell me about it." ”

Yang Zhi glanced at Li Jinyi and said indifferently: "Guogong, time has passed, and now I have a dark eye on the situation in Bianliang, and I can't talk about any ideas." ”

Zhao Lingxun and Li Jinyi sighed at the same time, Yang Zhi's performance can be regarded as human nature, he said that King Kang and others would not listen, and even had to tell right and wrong, it was better not to say it. Fan Shiyan said slowly: "Guogong, since you don't look down on Qinzhou, how about opening the business to Wuyuan County, anyway, Wuchi will be handed over to you sooner or later." ”

Fan Shiyan's words hit the nail on the head, Wuchi is a gift from Zhao Kai to Song Huizong, and it is also the reason why Zhao Lingxuan rushed to Youzhou, if Zhao Kai agrees, there is a chance that it will be the Taiping firm to deal with in the future; Zhao Lingxuan finally clapped his hands and said: "Okay, I will give Lord Fan this face." ”
