After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 796 Assessment Passed
He suppressed this doubt and went out to greet the guests.

Dianke ordered Lord Wang to come to He Lingchuan to convey the holy meaning.

Yuan Wangting proposed to increase the 30-year tax on the Hongya trade route as a supplement to the loan mortgage.That is to say, if Yuan Wangting cannot pay back the money, all the tariff income of the Hongya trade route for the next 30 years will belong to Rongshan.

In addition, in order to protect its own rights and interests, Rongshan can also send people to the local area, and take care of it now.

According to He Lingchuan's understanding, this is to allow troops to be stationed.If you want people to pay you willingly, you must have a complete set of violent institutions in the local area.

Generally speaking, no sovereign country will tolerate other forces stationing troops on its own land, but there are two special features of Hongya Road:

First of all, it is on the western border of the Yuan Kingdom, not the hinterland of the Yuan Kingdom, so it cannot threaten the central and southern regions of the Yuan Kingdom; it is also far away from the mainland of Rongshan, and cannot receive immediate support and supplements from the Rongshan Sect.

Secondly, it is Mr. Yuan's little thought. If He Lingchuan didn't know Hongya Road very well, he might not have discovered it:

The Panlong Desert is not only one of the culprits that caused Yuanxi's poverty, but also its umbrella.With the disappearance of the crazy sand season and the normalization of the Panlong Desert, the biggest threat of foreigners entering and leaving Yuanxi has also disappeared.

If the foreign forces are ready to move - He Chunhua originally took back the Blackwater City from the external forces - the Yuan Kingdom, which is tired of civil wars, may not be able to resist foreign aggression. Once the Rongshan Sect controls the Red Cliff trade route, it will of course also provide protection.

In other words, the Rongshan Sect guarded the west gate for the Yuan Kingdom.

This is the same as He Chunhua's previous duties as Qiansong County Governor.

It seems that after He Chunhua left Heishui City, his successor did not do very well.

But no matter what, King Yuan agreed to He Chunhua's plan, which also showed that He Chunhua had more and more influence on King Yuan's court.

This is what the He family father and son had discussed. He Lingchuan had no objection, and only nodded to Dian Keling and said:
"I still need to ask people from Rongshan to make an estimate, but in my opinion, this method should be feasible."

He sighed slightly in his heart, even if Yuan Country still had a way, it would not be possible to take out such high-quality assets as collateral.

Even Yuan didn't know its actual value, but He Lingchuan did.What he can do is to fight for a fair price for the Red Cliff Trade Route.

……

The next day, under everyone's well-known operation, the evaluation of the Hongya trade route passed smoothly.

The father and son of the He family, Da Si Nong, all went to the Fenglong Bank. He Lingchuan presented the materials, the special envoy's token and documents, and signed the first payment of Rongshan Zong Yuan Yuan from here.

Da Sinong directly received 190 million taels of real silver, and the remaining 180 million taels were military supplies.He Lingchuan sent Feishu secretly before, so some of them have been entrusted to the government and businessmen to transport them into the country, and Yuan Congress received this batch of important materials in advance.

Yuan Jun learned that he congratulated Lingchuan on entering the palace again, praised him severely, and gave him some rewards.

With the arrival of military aid, the entire capital breathed a sigh of relief.

All kinds of greeting cards and invitations flew to He's residence like snowflakes, either for He Chunhua or He Lingchuan.

Yes, the "Rongshan Special Envoy" has officially entered the field of vision of officials big and small in Yuandu. They not only have the power to sign the payment, but also supervise the use of the loan.

In Yuan Kingdom, at this delicate moment, even Yuan Wang Ting would look at He Lingchuan's eyes, waiting for him to nod and give money.

How can officials not pay homage to such a person?
He Chunhua simply took He Lingchuan together, either holding a banquet in a restaurant, or inviting officials and friends to the mansion to listen to operas and enjoy the gardens, as if they were indulging in sensuality and feasting.

He even ignored military and political affairs, and once participated in a military meeting, he was reeking of alcohol.

He Chunhua's uncharacteristic behavior caused the whole kite to discuss.

Mrs. Ying was too busy with these things, and during dinner, she complained in front of her two sons that the family was spending money like water recently.

He Lingchuan is at home today.While crossing his legs, he grabbed a big red strawberry and showed it to his mouth: "No matter how much money you spend on favors and gifts, you can get it back later, and you can get more money as interest. Old lady, you don't understand." Thorough."

Mrs. Ying gave him a hard look: "Who are you saying is not transparent? Put your legs down and sit in a proper position, what a shame you are!"

He Yue also took a strawberry: "The military supplies from the east are coming soon, and my father is hurrying up."

The people of Rongshan began to evaluate other mortgages, and He Lingchuan had a rare two days of leisure: "How about the two days in court?"

The dignitaries and dignitaries of Yuandu are extremely enthusiastic towards him, and those beautiful girls in their young age either sprain their feet by his side or fall into the water in front of him.

There were also many ladies and ladies who showed their affections to Zhu Xiu'er and wanted to inquire about him.

Even He Yue, who is already engaged, can secretly flirt with a girl he meets on the road.

Everyone can see that the old He family is going to take advantage of the wind.

He Lingchuan was so annoyed that he hid back home after two banquets.When Mrs. Ying asked why, he only said that killing people with a knife was much easier than dealing with women.

"There was a quarrel in the court about the use of military supplies." He Yue's news was already well-informed, "Your Majesty wants to send most of the supplies to the Northwest Front. After all, the Northwest Front has been short of food and clothing for a long time; but there is a faction of veterans who insist that, To fight against the chaos in the south, it is necessary to use the power of thunder to fight against Dong Haoming. Therefore, the logistics supplies on the southern front must be sufficient; The first payment, there are more than 300 million in the back, there is no shortage of General Ke."

He Lingchuan was a little surprised: "This group of veterans are all on our father's side?"

How long has it been since He Chunhua was transferred to the capital, how come there are supporters?

I am afraid that when he was in Xiazhou, he began to plan and manage.His father has a long-term vision and extraordinary ambitions.

Already had a goal.

"Not all of them. But Yan Guoshi supports his father."

He Lingchuan let out a long cry.That's right, the relationship between the father and the national teacher Yan Lixin is extraordinary, and this should be the result of mutual support.

No one can fight alone in the officialdom.

"There are quite a few ministers who support General Ke and ask for the first donation to the Northwest Front." He Yue shook his head, "Some say that the warehouses in various states have been dry up for a long time, and government offices at all levels are unable to pay salaries. Officials also have to eat, and at last It’s better to send it out first.”

Zhengcang is mainly used to supply official salary, that is, to pay officials at all levels.Including, but not limited to, money, silk, and charcoal.

He Lingchuan heard the words and looked at the bright red strawberries on the table.

Even in Yuandu, this stuff is not something that petty official families can afford.

In fact, after coming to Yuandu as Rongshan's special envoy and dealing with officials at all levels, He Lingchuan really felt how embarrassing the country was.

At this time, Yuanguo is like a dry sponge, which can no longer hold water.
