Chapter 143: Linchuan Mansion
Linchuan Mansion, a prefecture located on the border between Daqian and the Northern Zhou Dynasty, was built by the water and is famous for its unique geographical location and commerce.
Rincheon Province was built on the basis of the only river that runs directly from the inland to the sea, the Nasui River. Because of this Luoshui, the water transportation of Linchuan Province is extremely developed.
Linchuan Prefecture is also special in that it is located on the border between Daqian and Northern Zhou, and has become the only way for commercial exchanges between the two countries. And because the surrounding geographical location is not suitable for stationing troops, there is no army deterrence, which promotes the commerce of this capital city.
Although there was no army to suppress it, Linchuan Mansion was not Yangcheng, and official institutions such as the government and the six doors were indispensable.
"To this day, I still don't understand why Da Qian and Northern Zhou didn't fight. The so-called border between the two countries is so prosperous that there is no atmosphere at all. Qing Yu casually threw down the information of Linchuan Mansion in his hand and said to the pharmacist on the side.
This question arose when Qing Yu casually crossed the border between the two countries and went to Shanhe Academy to study.
It is not surprising that Qing Yu is not surprising, Daqian and Northern Zhou, one strong and one weak, with a huge disparity in strength, but they have been peaceful for three hundred years. Now this border city is peaceful.
The scholars over there in the Northern Zhou Dynasty have had enough fun in Tianle Fang, and when they are idle and hurt, they are always worried that Daqian suddenly came over that day, and they do not forget to worry about the country and the people in the time of the sage. But Da Qian has never come over, and even the last time the Son of Heaven martial arts appeared, Da Qian still did not directly move troops, but took advantage of the literary competition to seize the position.
The pharmacist smiled and didn't speak, handed over another piece of information, and said, "My lord, this is information about the forces of Linchuan Mansion. ”
Qing Yu took it and looked at it.
Linchuan Prefecture belongs to the territory of Daqian, except for the absence of military garrisons, everything else should be there. Fu Yin Zhu Xuan, surnamed Zhu is not as good as surnamed pig, his brain is full of fat intestines, and he needs to be carried in and out of the commercial cities bordering the two countries. Cuncui is a mascot waiting for people from all walks of life to donate oil and water to feed.
But all the forces in Linchuan Mansion like this kind of mascot, as long as Zhu Xuan doesn't mess around, they will offer Zhu Xuan as a Buddha and make a Maitreya Buddha.
It is said that they were so satisfied with Zhu Xuan that they intercepted three officials in succession to take over the position of Yin of Zhu Xuan's Mansion. If this is true, I have to say that this Zhu Xuan is a talent.
In addition to the government, there are also six doors and the Linchuan Business Alliance, which was established by the merchant alliance.
The institution of the six doors in Linchuan Mansion is now in charge of a silver-seal-level Shenyuan Realm head catcher, his name is Lin Fujihara, he is an old head catcher who has been in Linchuan Mansion for fifteen years. Since he was still an ordinary catcher, he had already served in Linchuan Mansion.
The Linchuan Business Alliance is mainly led by the Sihai Chamber of Commerce and the Zheng family who live in the local area, plus other large and small commercial forces, which control the trade between Linchuan Prefecture and nine times out of ten.
In terms of the power of the rivers and lakes, it is basically the Cao Gang that dominates. Luoshui is the main commercial route of Linchuan Province, at least half of the labor force in Linchuan Province depends on water transportation for food, and many merchants also rely on this waterway to go to a quarter of the Central Plains to transport goods.
Therefore, the forces in the rivers and lakes here are obviously dominated by the Cao Gang.
And secretly, there is also a force that Qingyu has been in contact with for a long time, but has never really known so far - the photo studio. In the commercial city of Linchuan Mansion, it is natural that this side is indispensable to the forces known as the "shadow of the great cadres".
Unlike the film market in Yangcheng, which has not been opened, here in Linchuan Mansion, the film market is open every night, and the auction is held once every three months, and there are many people coming and going, black and white, and the rivers and lakes are scattered, and the names that can be called are basically not absent.
"Looking at it this way, you are really hard," Qing Yu put down the information in his hand, "Although Linchuan Mansion is the best way to sell Changshengsan to Daqian, the forces of all parties have already divided up the interests cleanly, forming a chain of interests that is stronger than iron, and outsiders cannot be allowed to share their cakes at all." ”
"Yes!" the pharmacist sighed, but his hair had fallen out a lot these days.
Although Changshengsan is a new luxury, it is a commodity in the underworld due to its own harmfulness. If you want to sell, the Cao Gang, the Jianghu forces and the photo studio that sells black goods, are bound to pass.
In addition, the business alliance on the surface should also be very interested in Changshengsan, after all, businessmen, who is not tempted by huge interests.
Therefore, in this case, it's okay to make a small fuss, if it is really a large number of transactions, it will not be able to bypass these predators who block the way.
However······ Qing Yu thought about it, but he was not very worried about the sales of Changsheng San. Sometimes the connection of interests is stronger than iron, and sometimes it is no different from paper paste. As long as you have enough interests to prove your worth, it is an iron-like chain of interests, and it will be cut off under the corrosion of money.
"Let's put those aside, let's talk about your problems first. Why, the Sixth Prince still can't trust you?" Qing Yu asked.
This time I came to meet the pharmacist, and Qing Yu was also a waste of effort. According to the summons of the pharmacist, Qing Yu could not come to meet him directly, but came to visit secretly, and ran like a snitch to meet him in the secret room in the middle of the night.
The pharmacist shook his head and said, "Since I took the initiative to offer the prescription of the 'Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill' and took the 'Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill' prepared by the Six Princes themselves, the Six Princes have trusted me very much. I have also been very careful in handling all my affairs, and I have not revealed any flaws.
It is not the Six Princes who can't believe me, but Han Wenxin. ”
"Han Wenxin······" Qing Yu thought of this senior brother who was yin by himself, "He is a guy who should not be underestimated, and it was the right time to be able to yin him." Did he get any grip on you?"
"Not really," said the pharmacist with a wry smile on his face, "If he really caught something, he would have told the Six Princes a long time ago." However, he doubted me, not because of any tricks, but because of pure intuition, he just thought that I was secretly harboring a ghost. ”
Intuitive ······ That's a bit unreasonable.
Sometimes, this intuition is very helpless for people who do bad things, I obviously do a good job, but why do you just know that I did it?
Qing Yu thought of the two actions of this Senior Brother Han again, disguised himself in the guest building to return to the academy, and tested himself before leaving, at this time, thinking about it, maybe it was Han Wenxin who suddenly felt it at that time, and then took action. Especially when he left the academy, the temptation in front of the mountain gate, if it wasn't for Qing Yu's alertness, I am afraid that Han Wenxin would find out that he was playing ghosts.
Of course, Qing Yu would not really believe in such a metaphysical thing as intuition, and could only say Han Wenxin, who was particularly sensitive in some aspects and could feel the disguise of others.
