5. Complement the military with business
"The maid wants to stay here to take care of the mistress." Zhihui is not stupid.
"I heard that Princess Tang'an's harassment of Songqing became more and more obvious, so it was a good thing for Songqing to go to Jingzhou earlier. However, when a man is outside, he always cannot do without the care of our women. If his wife cannot choose a good room for his husband, what would it look like! There are rumors in the market that Songqing is outside and is the censor of the palace, but I am the censor of Zhizai at home. I even said that A Mei Yunhe of Shu, that is, Songqing's wife and sister are the censor of Zhitan, which has caused me to have a bad reputation of being favored and jealous. Originally, I had two close maids, Qingxi and Guizi, who also married my brothers as concubines one after another, and they were not as good as you, respectful and humble as yours, nor as good as your appearance."
Yun Shao's words were clear, and he really wanted to promote Zhihui to Gao Yue's concubine.
"How dare I have the hope of Shao Jiang?"
But in a flash, Yun Shao held Zhihui's hand and whispered, "You are so kind to you, Songqing is the concubine, and I am the one who is the one who is the one who is afraid of you? Songqing has a little weird temper. Before I become his wife, I thought you were already with him. Who would have thought you are still innocent? Songqing had no maid before marriage and no concubine after marriage, which is not a good thing - this time Songqing went to Jingzhou to take office, you don't have to say anything, just follow him and act according to the opportunity."
A few words made Zhihui a little shy and uneasy. She also understood that Yun Shao took her as the second wife and concubines, and first, they formed a alliance with Tang An to fight against Tang An, and second, they could also make the third brother's career more smooth, but this "thing" of "acting according to the opportunity" made Zhihui scared.
She is not unfamiliar with the "secret drama" of her third brother and her mistress, but she has always been outside, but she has never seen the true form. How can she understand the essence? But Yun Shao has been tempered by "Flower Camp and Brocade Formation" after all. Knowing what Zhihui is thinking, she laughed and in the subtle candlelight under the basket bed, she carefully treated Zhihui like this...
Although Gao Yue rejected Yang Yan's invitation at once, it does not mean that he really won't attend other banquets.
Even if I am the censor of the palace and cannot easily meet the court officials, I can meet the merchants.
In the residence between Shengyefang and Dongshi, Gao Yue met Xiao Yi again.
Gao Yue gave Zhang's deed to Xiao Yi.
"Yi Song actually wants to sell the Tuile Zhai by the release pond!" Xiao Yi was puzzled.
"I not only want to sell Tuile Zhai, but I also want to advise Brother Jing to sell two-thirds of the residences in Chang'an City. Now the war between the imperial court and Fang Town is about to break out, and keeping a commercial residence will do more harm than good."
Xiao Yi secretly found it funny. Gao Yue, who is young, actually talked about tricks with him, a veteran in the mall. However, he was still curious and asked Gao Yue, "What is the basis for Yi Song's words?"
"The residences in Beijing can be roughly divided into four types. First, the royal relatives entrusted merchants to operate and collect profits; second, they have close ties with Jinzouyuan in various towns, and rely on the promotion or flying money to make profits; third, the Hu merchants in the Uighurs, relying on the discounts of Honglu Temple, can exempt renting and food and accommodation costs and trade in Chang'an City; fourth, they handle the money of the government's office in the capital, and lend money for money. Brother Jing is probably the second type, so when the court and Fangzhen war are in war, your business path is equal to being cut off."
When Xiao Yi heard Gao Yue's words, he felt something was right, but he still felt that Gao Yue was too alarmist.
Gao Yue continued: "Does Brother Jingzhi think that the court is now in danger of going to war with a town on the east side of Shannan Road? Can't Brother Jingzhi see that the court had previously pacified the Jingyuan mutiny and sent only 30,000 to 40,000 troops, which was extremely difficult. If he started fighting with Shandong, Liang Chongyi would be in contact with other powerful vassals, and the world would inevitably be in turmoil. The priest was approved to have a memorial to 'food three times the grain out of boundary'. Once the war started, the military expenditure would be like a mountain collapse and a tsunami. The court was empty at that time and there was no way to make money. He would have to take the rich households in the commercial residence in Chang'an."
"What does Yisong mean?"
"Ru Jing's brother trusts me, please adopt the method of 'use merchants to replenish the army' and transfer money to the northwest, so that he can be invincible in the future. Jing's brother once warned me that he must be quick in business, but now he must not only be quick in his hands, but also long-term." Gao Yue requested this, but he was asking for capital injection anyway. When he was a screenwriter, many producers and producers deceived investors.
Xiao Yi was both moved and hesitant, and stood up from the bed and walked back and forth several times. "It sounds like a suffrage for the army of Shang, but you have to ask Yi Song, you will get the seal of the Jingyuan Military Mansion you went to."
Then Xiao Yi let out, of course he could not really give up his Chang'an business, but he promised to use 3,000 guan of money to support Gao Yue's land camping business.
"You don't have to worry about the seal of the military palace. If you can't get it, you can return it in just three thousand silos!" Gao Yue was overjoyed and full of confidence.
A few days later, Gao Yue visited Duan Xiushi, a Si Nongqing in the name of "consulting the old man in the border guards". The two were originally a guest-to-people relationship in Jingzhou, and the reunion was particularly sad. Gao Yue told Duan in detail about Liu Wenxi's suicide and rescue camp.
"It's the imperial court that I'm sorry to the soldiers in the camp..." Duan Xiushi was so sad that he could only tell Gao Yue secretly.
Then he carefully listened to Gao Yue's strategy of "using merchants to supplement the army" and couldn't help but praise him. Then the two of them took the sub-map and started studying it as they were in Jingzhou.
Duan pointed to the location of Jingzhou: "During the Kaitian period, the Western Regions were still there, and most merchants entered Beijing from Jingyuan, so they were very prosperous. Now most of the Western Regions have been lost. Merchants changed their routes, from the Uighur grassland, and traded from Lingzhou or Taiyuan to Beijing. The Hedong where Taiyuan is located has nothing to do with Jingzhou, so they use Shang to replenish their troops, and they should pay special attention to Lingzhou along the way."
"There are about three roads to Chang'an in Lingzhou." Gao Yue picked up the black pieces on the chessboard and pressed them one by one, "First from Qingzhou to Bingzhou and enter Chang'an, second from Yuanzhou to Jingzhou, Bingzhou to Chang'an, third from Yanzhou to go to Chang'an. The third road is too far away and there are no caravans to go. The second one is now deserted and the caravans are not enough, so most of the grassland caravans are walking the first one." Then he picked up three white pieces and pressed them on the Maaoyuan, Wu, adjacent to Jingzhou and Changwu City, Bingzhou. "However, no matter which route you take, you pass by Bingzhou, so as long as you set up a business residence at the post station adjacent to it, you can get a share of the pie."
What Gao Yue said was to start a "secondary trade route".
In addition, Gao Yue also guarded Caobi in the Caobi near the south of Jingzhou and Fengxiang Prefecture, and pressed a white piece. "There can also be a flag pavilion business residence here to open mutual trade between Anxi Camp and Fengxiang Prefecture."
This is to set up a military city, and all the troops complement each other and prosper together.
