Gao Zunhui held a tips bag and licked his tongue.

"Sure enough, you still have to follow the official family to make money!" He said seriously.

He now admires the officials in Bianjing more and more.

When it comes to making money, the official family is really a bit like a saint.

Civil servants always like to say something like: Confucius was not born in heaven, and literature would last forever like a long night.

But, in Gao Zunhui's view.

Heaven does not give birth to officials, and the eternal business world is like a long night!

Look at the tips the officials gave him!

Go to Guangxi and dismantle one, and set off to Guihua Prefecture and Shun'an Prefecture, using the manpower and material resources of the Nong family to help him grow sugar cane.

Therefore, he, Gao, spent less than two thousand dollars to plant more than two thousand acres of sugar cane in the wasteland of Guihua Prefecture and Shun'an Prefecture!

The cost of planting one acre of land is less than the usual amount, and it also includes the transportation cost of sugarcane seedlings!

Moreover, the Nong family said: Why do these lands belong to us? They clearly belong to you, Uncle Guo! You see, your name is written on the land deed!

While Gao Zunhui was still in a trance, several delicate little ladies were thrust into her hands.

Although this young lady from the Dongxi family can't sing ditties or play the piano, and she can't keep shouting in his ears like Li Shishi: I want an official.

But they can dance and sing folk songs!

The most terrible thing is that their waists and hips are really strong!

This was a completely different boating experience from Bianjing Wazi. During the days in Guihuazhou, Gao Zunhui sang and sang almost every night, and even his soul was almost left under the bellies of those little ladies.

While Gao Zunhui was obsessed with Wenrou Township, the Nong family took his remaining sugarcane seedlings and planted another two to three thousand acres.

It was only now that Gao Zunhui understood the reason - for local officials like the Nong family, the most valuable thing was manpower.

In theory, the Dong people under the rule of the chieftain and the chieftain himself can requisition them without compensation, because everything they own belongs to the chieftain.

The kind that does whatever is asked.

And the price he offered Gao Zunhui was really tempting.

After planting sugar cane, there will be one or two sugar canes per acre of land harvested!

For these farmers, this is incredible wealth!

As for whether it will be hit in the hand?

Who worries about this kind of thing?

This is the business of the uncle of the Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty!

For the Nong family, even if it was just to flatter and show off, they still had to plant two thousand acres of sugar cane fields.

Thinking of this, Gao Zunhui's lips overflowed with a smile.

So when did you open the second tip bag?

Gao Zunhui remembered clearly that he followed the instructions seriously and only opened the second tip bag after completing the sugar cane business in Guihua Prefecture and Shun'an Prefecture.

This is his self-cultivation as a foreign relative - in the Song Dynasty, to be a good foreign relative, a noble person, and to eat well this bowl of rice requires not only a high degree of self-position, but also the awareness of obeying the official's command in all actions.

Those relatives and noble families who are self-righteous and unable to recognize their own position have all been eliminated.

For example, Empress Wen Chengzhang’s maternal family, who else in Bianjing is looking after them now?

Another example is the guys who were put in charge of the place a few days ago.

If the concubine in the palace had not gone to the two palaces to intercede and say good things, even the consort Guo Xianqing would have almost gone to a place to calm down.

This is what the Song Dynasty did to its nobles and relatives.

Mainly grinding and surveying, supplemented by whipping.

Pull out the thorns and get rid of the perverseness, and the rest will be the licking dogs of the imperial power.

As a member of the Gao family, Gao Zunhui was taught self-cultivation by nobles and relatives since childhood.

He can be greedy, stupid, and lustful.

But I will never forget the ability to eat.

If this is the case, the Gao family will surely perish!

Therefore, every step Gao Zunhui takes is done in accordance with the will and will never go beyond it.

The official has said when the brocade bag can be opened, and he will definitely wait until then to do so.

Thinking about the second tip.

The smile on Gao Zunhui's lips became even more uncontrollable.

Because, this second tip is still very simple - cooperate with Zhang Dun, hire young men who go south to penetrate the northern states of Cochin, and use sugar cane as a profit to lure them to surrender!

At first, Gao Zunhui didn't believe it.

Because sugarcane can extract sugar, this was something only sugarcane farmers in Mingzhou, Suzhou and other places in the southeast knew in the Song Dynasty.

Who would believe the empty talk?

Still trying to induce surrender?

Gao Zunhui felt at that time that most of the young men he hired would die in Jiaozhi.

However……

Gao Zunhui never expected that Zhang Dun would resort to the trick of appointing an official, making a wish, conferring a title, and conferring a knighthood, which was hereditary and ignored.

One move hit the lives of local officials and wealthy families in the Jiaozhi Prefecture.

So he hired young men to quickly infiltrate.

Local officials and wealthy families from all over the country heard that they were envoys from the uncle of the Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty to discuss cooperation.

Each one turned into a pug on the spot, only barking, barking, barking.

The next thing I heard was to talk about sugar cane cultivation.

Local officials and wealthy people don’t know what sugar cane is?

But do they know what copper coins are?

I heard that one acre of sugar cane can be sold for one or two bucks.

Every eyeball is about to pop out.

It’s not that no one had doubts, but the uncles of the Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty came to ask for cooperation.

It would be outrageous not to agree!

Local officials and wealthy families agreed one after another, but all fools knew that they might not actually plant sugar cane on a large scale in their own territory.

Just plant two to three hundred acres casually, and you will have enough sense of purpose.

And then...then...

As Zhang Dun fulfilled his promises one by one.

Write a note with an empty name and send it out.

One by one, local officials transformed and became hereditary Feiqiwei, Yunqiwei, and Yulin Xiaowei who were conferred by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.

The local officials and wealthy families discovered that the promise of the Song Dynasty was true.

If you say you want to be canonized, you can be conferred; if you say you want to confer an official title, you will be conferred an official title.

So, these guys, while beating gongs and drums, delivered the official certificate, title letter and official seal awarded by Zhang Dun to their ancestral hall.

On the one hand, they began to really organize manpower to plant a large amount of sugar cane in their respective jurisdictions.

It ranges from a thousand acres to more than five thousand acres.

Sugarcane seedlings were continuously shipped from Mingzhou, Suzhou and other places and were planted in the Jiaozhi prefectures.

why?

This is because Gao Zunhui was instigated by Lu Jiawen to go to Beidang himself.

And there, I met many local officials.

The title of the uncle of the Empress Dowager of the Song Dynasty was quite destructive to those local officials who had never even been to Bianjing.

At the same time, it was also because Zhang Dun’s promise came true!

I have really been conferred an official title and canonized!

Really acknowledged them!

For this reason, the local officials' trust in the Song Dynasty reached a critical point.

Everyone is willing to give it a try.

Anyway, even if no one wants the sugar cane they eventually grow, they won't lose much.
To be continued...
