Zhao Junsheng took Hua Mulan to the yard to talk about business, "I'm here to tell you two business things: the first is that the post station will start sending letters and goods to the people, and it's almost ready. Last time you It is said that there are hundreds of ponies in our ranch that can be sold to the Law Enforcement Office, let me say yes, the Law Enforcement Office does not have that much money for the time being, so we can only owe it first, and pay it off within three to four months!"

Hua Mulan smiled and said, "With you joining the army at the Law Enforcement Office, I'm still worried that you will renege on your debts? It's no problem, but what's the price?"

"I'll let you suffer in terms of price? A [-]% increase on the current market price!" Zhao Junsheng said.

Hua Mulan hesitated, and asked, "Isn't it good to do this? Although in our relationship, you shouldn't let us suffer, but you can't make it so obvious. If you let other officials in the yamen gossip, you will explain it to everyone." Don't go!"

Zhao Junsheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, this involves the second thing I want to tell you. Now in Liang County, more than [-]% of the livestock are here, and most of the cattle and sheep sold in the market come from us. ranch?"

Hua Mulan nodded and said, "Well, that's true! The current sale price is [-]% higher than the purchase price!"

"Well, starting tomorrow, the price of cattle and sheep sold to butchers in our castle will be increased by [-]% at one time, and [-]% every day thereafter!"

Hua Mulan was very smart, she immediately realized something, and asked, "Khan is coming?"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Yes! I received the news that Yujia will enter Liang County in about ten days. The exact date is not clear. No matter what day it is, after ten days, the price will continue to increase by [-]% every day! Remember, the wool must be sheared before selling!"

Hua Mulan was a little worried. After all, this is to earn the emperor's money. The emperor is not a fool, and the accompanying ministers are not fools either. Will they not see it?

"It's not good to raise the price too obviously. If the Khan and the ministers can see that the price of the livestock was raised when they arrived, isn't it clear that they are being taken advantage of? If the Khan is angry, we will not only earn money." No more money, the entire Huajiabao and you can't bear Khan's anger!"

Chapter 77 I will be proud

Zhao Junsheng knew that Hua Mulan, as a subject under the rule of the Northern Wei Dynasty, had a natural awe of the emperor. Although he was also afraid, he was not as afraid as people in this era. He comforted Hua Mulan: "Mulan, don't worry, as long as the emperor enters Liang County , let’s stop the price increase immediately, so that even if someone sees it, they won’t be able to catch it!”

"Besides, what is the little money we earn to the emperor and the court? The property captured by the emperor when he led the army to defeat Hu Xia this year is immeasurable! As a young and promising king, would he care about this little money? Do you want to lose face? Even if he doesn’t want it, the courtiers will want it, and they will prevent the king from competing for profit with the people!”

"Also, the fact that the imperial army brought back millions of cattle, sheep and horses after a great victory has caused a great impact on the livestock and fur markets in the territory of Wei. Everyone knows this. Although this matter has not yet completely passed , but it is normal for market prices to rise in some areas, the emperor and ministers will not pay attention to these trivial matters, do you know what the emperor is here for this southern tour?"

Hua Mulan shook her head: "Where are we small people like this kind of imperial court guessing? But I heard that the garrison on the border of the Southern Dynasty has shown signs of increasing in the past few days. Could it be that Khan is worried that the Southern Dynasty wants to regain the lost ground and send troops to fight over? So Do you want to tour the south to deter the Southern Dynasties?"

Zhao Junsheng did not expect that a woman like Hua Mulan would pay attention to the situation and guess the purpose of the emperor going south, he said with a smile: "You are right, but it is not comprehensive. Now that the imperial army has returned to the court, the Southern Dynasty has been lost It is the best time to send troops to the north to retake the land of Henan. In fact, the Southern Dynasty did not want to, but could not. In the past few years, the newly succeeded Emperor Liu Yilong of the Southern Dynasty was busy cutting off the powerful ministers. If the internal troubles are not eliminated, why should the emperor fight against the outside world? Xun does have the intention of intimidating the Southern Dynasty, but his main purpose is not here, but to appease the generals guarding Henan!"

Hua Mulan asked puzzledly: "Peace the generals guarding the land of Henan? Why do you want to appease them?"

Zhao Junsheng said while walking with his arms folded, Hua Mulan followed him and listened carefully.

"Who do you think has the highest official position in Henan today?"

Without even thinking about it, Hua Mulan said, "Needless to say, of course it is General Annan, Sima Chuzhi. What does Khan's southern tour have to do with him?"

"Of course, Sima Chuzhi is a descendant of the royal family of the Jin Dynasty. He has long wanted to send troops to the south to attack Liu Song in order to avenge the destruction of the country. In recent years, the new emperor Liu Yilong of the Southern Dynasty has spent all his energy on dealing with the power ministers Sikong Xu Xianzhi and Zhongling Fu Liang. , the leading general Xie Hui, it can be said that these few years were the most unstable years in the Southern Dynasty. Sima Chuzhi must have believed that if he could send troops south, he would be able to destroy Liu Song, but the emperor just listened to Cui Hao's suggestion and led the army to go Sima Chuzhi’s suggestion was not adopted to attack Hu Xia! In addition, Nanman Colonel and Annan General Shi Wang Huilong also strongly advocated attacking Liu Song, as well as guards guarding Hulao, Luoyang, Xingyang, and Huatai. Han generals, and most of them surrendered from the Southern Dynasty, if the emperor doesn’t come down south to have a look, how can he feel at ease?”

"Of course, there is a rumor circulating in the officialdom that the emperor led the army to attack Hu Xia and won a complete victory, and the capture was rich. The northern generals who accompanied the army were all rewarded generously. Only the generals guarding the south did not go out with the army. , did not get the reward, they were jealous, and wanted to send troops to the south to attack Liu Song, and also wanted to make a fortune. Of course, this is just a joke, nonsense!"

After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Hua Mulan, seeing that she was staring at him, he felt a little embarrassed for a while, and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? I have flowers on my face?"

Hua Mulan smiled and said, "It's just the first time I've seen you talking about the general trend of the world, and you look very energetic!"

Zhao Junsheng blushed a little, "Don't praise me like that, I will be proud!"

Hua Mulan smiled and squeezed her fist to lightly beat Zhao Junsheng's shoulder, took a bow and a bag of arrows from a passing weapon rack and handed them to Zhao Junsheng, saying, "Look at your progress in the past two months!"

"That's fine!" Zhao Junsheng agreed, put the quiver on his back, took out a bow and aimed at the target on the opposite side, which was about 60 meters away.

With a "whoosh", the arrow hit the target, but missed the bull's-eye.

Zhao Junsheng shot ten arrows in a row, four of them hit

The bull's-eye, the other arrows fly, and the five arrows deviate from the bull's-eye.

Hua Mulan said: "Hey, the progress is not small, it's pretty good to be able to reach this level after just practicing archery!"

"That is, I get up before dawn every day to practice martial arts and archery, and I shoot five hundred arrows every time!"

Zhao Junsheng was talking. After shooting the tenth arrow, his arms felt a little numb, and his strength dropped a lot. He immediately mobilized his internal energy, and the internal energy swam around his body, driving away most of the numbness, and returned to his dantian. It consumes more than half of the time, which has a certain effect on increasing vigor, and it is also quite obvious on the long-term maintenance of endurance.

Then he continued to shoot arrows, and shot a whole bag of arrows in one breath, a total of thirty arrows, until the internal energy stored in the dantian was almost exhausted before giving up.

Hua Mulan was quite surprised and said: "This is a stone bow. You can shoot a pot of arrows in one breath without panting or blushing. You have made great progress! I think when I was practicing archery, I drew a stone bow. It took more than five months!"

Zhao Junsheng curled his lips and said: "You are playing with the three-stone bow now, and you can hang and beat me with one hand. If I want to practice to your level, I don't know that it will be the year of the monkey!"

Hua Mulan leaned closer and said, "Is that why you want to surpass me?"

"That's right, or if you get angry one day, hold me down with one hand, and beat me up with the other, wouldn't I be miserable?"

Hua Mulan grabbed Zhao Junsheng by the collar, leaned in front of Zhao Junsheng and said, "Then you have surpassed me in training, are you planning to fight back?"

Zhao Junsheng quickly waved his hand: "Don't dare, dare not, no matter how much you can hit, you can't hit your wife. If I don't fight back, I can always run, right? Can I hide? If I run, I can't run away, and if I hide, I can't hide, why don't you?" Isn't it very sad?"

"That's about the same, good boy!"

"..." Zhao Junsheng's facial muscles twitched.

After eating, Zhao Junsheng said his goodbyes and hurried back to Suiyang City.

In the early morning of the next day, under Zhao Junsheng's arrangement, a notice from the Law Enforcement Office was posted at the gate of Suiyang City, and then several notices were sent to the gates of other counties in the county to be posted.

In each county, he also sent people to carry the gongs, and while beating the gongs along the street, he shouted that the posthouses in the city and the posthouses outside the city would begin to accept private messages and deliver goods from the people from now on.

A large group of people gathered around the gates of Suiyang City and various county towns to watch the content of the notice. Inside the city, there were post soldiers beating gongs and shouting along the street, and the news was quickly spread. In less than two days, almost all officials in the county The army, the army and the people all knew the news.

According to the current commodity prices and the price that ordinary people can bear, Zhao Junsheng priced the shipping fee for his letters into two types: ordinary confidential letters are ten yuan per letter, which serves ordinary people; special confidential letters are priced at Fifty dollars, this is for officials, wealthy households, and merchants.

The price of the transported goods is set as follows: ten cents for each item under one catty, and two cents per catty over one catty; the freight for special and valuable items will be negotiated separately; the freight for bulk goods will also be negotiated separately.

Zhao Junsheng knew that the quality of the postmen was not high, and their living conditions were not very good. If there were valuables in the delivery process, they would inevitably covet them. The post office system's own supervision went to investigate, and he also specifically asked Zuo Lingshi Cao Xianyun to be in charge of the investigation of this kind of thing, to give an explanation to the sufferers.

Huajiabao.

Hua Mulan was instructing Bao Ding and the women to shear the sheep. Ma Er rode over, dismounted, walked to Hua Mulan and handed her a piece of paper, saying, "Miss, two hundred horses have been sent to Suiyang City and handed over to Facao." Signed, this is the bill of arrears signed by my uncle!"

"Okay!" Hua Mulan put away the debt slip.

At this time, another Baoding came running over with a few people on horseback, "Master Shaobao, Master Pi from Zhe County, Master Fu from Bo County, Master Guan from Yucheng, and Master Li, Master Wang from Suiyang, Master Hong is here!"

Hua Mulan stepped forward, clasped her fists and smiled, "The masters are here, and Mulan is far away to welcome you, forgive me!"

"Haha, Master Shaobao is very polite!" Master Li of Suiyang City said with a smile, seeing the Baodings pressing the sheep

On the ground, quite puzzled, he asked, "Master Shaobao, who are you?"
