Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

The local power has been broken again, which is the best time for the imperial power to take root.

Therefore, Zhao Ning made a decree.

The content is also very clear:

[-]. Improve the supervisory officials on Jingji Road, and set up supervisory officials in the countryside. Each supervisor manages five Baozhengs, and the actual positions are matched according to the number of Baozhengs in each county.

[-]. Set up a government school in each county, and Jianzhen and Baozheng will enter the government school on a regular basis. They will be assessed every six months.

Due to the development of the commodity economy, there was a kind of grass market between the counties and villages in the Song Dynasty, which formed the prototype of the town, and the supervisor of the town was in charge of these.

But the role of the town supervisor has not really been brought into play.

This time, the grassroots management reform of Gyeonggi Road is the strengthening of the imperial court's control over the grassroots of Gyeonggi Road.

But it is limited to Gyeonggi Road, after all, the transportation facilities are limited, and now only the gentry and landlords on Gyeonggi Road have been hit, and the system of supervisory officials cannot be pushed to other places in one go.

The purpose of this restructuring of grassroots officials is to strengthen the court's control over the grassroots. Only in this way can policies such as tax collection, mobilization, grain collection, and popularization of banknotes be effective.

Without solving the problem of smooth administration, no matter how good the policy is, it will be nonsense.

In the early morning of July 25, Wang Zonglin went to Wende Hall again.

"Officials, please take a look."

"This is?"

"This is the latest Qian Yin."

"Jiaozi?"

"Yes, Jiaozi."

Zhao Ning did not expect Wang Zonglian to bring the latest version so quickly, and he looked at Wang Zonglian again with admiration.

As long as this guy is dealing with money, he has a hundred times more energy than usual!

Zhao Ning rubbed the latest jiaozi with his hands.

Sure enough, this kind of workmanship is very fine.

The handicrafts of the ancients are really amazing. No wonder the Song Dynasty issued a large number of banknotes and it was not heard that they were destroyed by counterfeit money.

The denominations are all printed, one, five, ten, fifty, one hundred, and Yiguan.

This kind of multi-denomination handover can also increase the cost of counterfeiting to a greater extent.

"Where's the bank?"

"It has already been vacated. As long as you give an order from the officials, the bank can open at any time, but the new banknotes are just these samples."

"Don't worry, you should prepare the amount of banknotes to be handed over first, and print 500 million coins first."

"so much?"

"Although India, the imperial court has copper coins and iron coins for you to reserve, don't be afraid, it's only available on Gyeonggi Road."

"Yes."

"By the way, has the reorganization of Jingshi's trading company started?"

"Then can the officials worry about it?" Wang Zonglian looked very proud, "The officials have spoken, and the minister went back to make preparations overnight, but some people in the Yamen of Taifu Temple are not very obedient."

"Not listening?"

"If you don't work, you will speak well in front of your ministers, and fish in troubled waters in private."

Zhao Ning said to Wang Huaiji, "Go, call Mo Chou."

"Yes!"

Mo Chou, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, came soon.

"Officials."

"Mo Qing, there is a situation now. Wang Taiwei has been transferred to Taifu Temple to be the Minister of Taifu Temple. He wants to help me rectify Taifu Temple, but some officials in Taifu Temple are not very cooperative. You come to assist Wang Taiwei, try to cooperate with his personnel arrangement requirements."

"Yes! Officials don't worry, leave this matter to the minister, no problem!"

"Okay, Wang Taiwei, do you have any questions?"

"Gone."

Wang Zonglin immediately ran to the Yamen of Taifu Temple to support the Bureau of Commerce and Society first, and the first order he issued was to ask people to count the businessmen in Tokyo.

Don't businessmen like to play trading companies?

All to Lao Tzu to register for the record!

Chapter 215 The Unexpected Discovery of Official Zhao's Family (Part [-])

During the period from the end of July to the beginning of August, Zhao Guan's family, as well as the governors of the Eastern Mansion, were all eagerly paying attention to the matter of buying and renting land.

At the beginning of August, new reports came to the capital almost every day.

There are more and more farmers selling fields everywhere.

The Secretary of Agriculture also reported the situation of the land leased every few days.

Many refugees who came into exile from Hedong and Hebei were even brought to Tian.

Some people feel that the law and order on Gyeonggi Road seems to be improving.

For a while, many people were praising Zhao Guanjia for his sageness.

On the third day of August, in the evening of early autumn, the heat slowly sinks, and it is no longer as hot as it was in midsummer.

Under the reflection of the setting sun, the water of the Bian River has a soft luster.

Zhao Ning walked across the Bianhe Bridge in casual clothes.

There was an endless stream of merchant ships in the river, and the goods brought in from the south were dazzling.

There are silks transported from the Liangzhe Road in the southeast, and Jinghu rice that arrives in Bianjing after the Jinghu Road goes down the south and enters the canal.

There are also many Masang in the land of Qilu.

In addition, there are some official ships, the cargo on which is concealed.

Many of them were iron transported from Hebei and Jingdong East Road, and they were to be transported to the Military Weapons Supervisor to make weapons.

At the ferry not far away, many people are unloading.

Zhao Ning walked to the vicinity of Daxiangguo Temple.

The night market near Daxiangguo Temple seems to be about to start. Many small vendors set up stalls there, and the number of people around them is also obviously increasing.

Zhao Ning goes out regularly to take a look around, and even goes to rice shops and wine shops to buy some daily necessities, mainly to understand the prices.

People's livelihood is no small matter, and the price of food in Tokyo is still high.

The printing of big money in the Zhao Ji era, and the consequences of the previous three Song-Jin wars have not been eliminated, and now when disaster relief and wars are being fought in Hebei and Hedong, a considerable part of the food in the southeast will be transferred there.

People's livelihood is difficult.

Zhao Ning visited a few, and sure enough, the price of grain is still high at two guan per shi.

Didn't the imperial court collect 400 million shi grain taxes from all over Gyeonggi Road?

Allocate 300 million shi to stabilize the price of food. Wherever it is collected, it will flow into the local area to stabilize the price of food.

This is equivalent to pulling grain out of the landlord's granary and distributing it to various places to reduce grain prices.

Yes, just do it!

As Zhao Ning walked, he had already reached the outer city. He asked Jing Chao, "Where have we been?"

"Officer, this is near the Temple of King Wucheng."

"Oh, here we are."

Zhao Ning suddenly remembered that Qian Jinshu she met in Fan Lou more than a month ago, when she said goodbye, she seemed to say that she lived nearby.

Zhao Ning turned around, and he really found it.

"Qian House" written on the lintel.

He walked over and said to the person at the door: "Dare to ask if Qian Jinshu is here."

The person at the door looked at Zhao Ning twice, and asked, "What is this official doing with our lady?"

"I have an appointment with your young lady. I'm here to pay you a visit on business matters."

"What's the name of the official?"

"Miangui's surname is Zhao, and one is Ning."

A servant said, "Officials, wait a moment."

Another servant said: "Hey, there is a distinguished guest today, why don't the officials come to visit another day?"

The servant who was about to go in and report said, "How do you know that this official is not Miss's distinguished guest!"

The servant quickly said, "I'm sorry."

Another servant went in to report.

Zhao Ning thinks these two servants are quite interesting, one is fat and the other is thin, and they speak politely and politely, which shows that the owner of the house is also a very kind and polite person.

Zhao Ning asked Fat Ding, "What's your name?"

"My name is Qian Wu."

Zhao Ning took out some money from his bosom and handed it to Qian Wu, who immediately said, "The officials can't force it, so we dare not accept it. If the young lady finds out, we will be miserable."

Zhao Ning smiled awkwardly and asked, "Who is your lady seeing?"

"Say it's a few big shots in Tokyo."

"How big is it?"

"It is said that he is the richest man in Tokyo and the son of a high official."

Zhao Ning recalled what Qian Jinshu told him that he came to Tokyo to do business, and it was inevitable to establish relationships.

Zhao Ning wondered, who is the richest man in Tokyo?

Not long after, the skinny servant came out, and when he came out, he said with a smile on his face: "Officer, please come inside."

Zhao Ning walked in with someone.

As soon as he walked outside the living room, the eyes of the people inside all cast their gazes over at the same time.

Qian Jinshu came out and bowed to Zhao Ning: "Officer Zhao, there are guests at home, and I can't welcome them from far away, so I invite Haihan."

"It's okay, I came here suddenly and disturbed Miss Qian."

"Please come in."

Zhao Ning walked in, and under Qian Jinshu's guidance, he found a seat and sat down.

Except for Jing Chao who followed in, everyone else waited outside.

Qian Jinshu did have some guests. Judging from their clothes, they were either rich or expensive.

Qian Jinshu introduced Zhao Ning one by one, and the two sides nodded in response to each other.

A man in a long gown with the color of Ji (a kind of wink in ancient times, sky blue) said: "This Zhao official, I don't know which industry the family is engaged in?"

The price of this man's long gown probably reached one hundred guan, it is absolutely top-grade.

Zhao Ning remembered that Qian Jinshu said just now that his name was Wang Cai, and his family was in the textile business in Tokyo.

These people are all in the same group, and they are obviously a little unfamiliar and repulsive to Zhao Ning, a latecomer.

Zhao Ning said modestly: "My business is a bit complicated, I can do everything."

"Food, silk, salt, or tea?"

"It's all a little bit involved."

Wang Cai had a sneer on his face: "Then why have I never heard the name of Officer Zhao?"

Zhao Ning showed a white tooth, and smiled harmlessly: "You haven't heard of normal, and most people haven't heard of it."

He was telling the truth, but everyone was slightly taken aback, thinking that Zhao Ning's words were mocking their ignorance.

"Officer Zhao said it's okay, let's see if there is any business in Tokyo that we don't know about."
