Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger

Chapter 624 Legislation

Xianbei Royal Court

Tuoba Jin has recently been busy mobilizing his subordinates to hook up with Pingzhou merchants to buy salt.

Ever since he was deprived of force by Qin Sheng and unable to mount his horse and lead his troops in battle, he had taken over similar general affairs.

This matter finally made progress, and he quickly reported to his father, "Father, we have a line to buy salt from Pingzhou."

"How much does it cost per pound?"

"One hundred and seventy articles."

"It's not cheap. What's the quantity?"

Tuoba Jin then reported a number.

Tuoba Khan was not very satisfied with this number.

Because Xianbei had stocked up on the occasion when Pingzhou was selling salt to Dali, their current demand for salt is not that big.

"Although the price is not very cheap, and the quantity that the other party can provide now is not very large, but Father, it is not easy for us to find such a line, why not keep it first?"

Tuoba Jin sincerely suggested that it was not easy for him to find such a line. Businessmen in Pingzhou don't touch these things. They have many opportunities to make money in Pingzhou, and even those with some skills are unwilling to take advantage of this sideline.

Moreover, the people in Pingzhou had strong opinions on Xianbei from top to bottom, and would not sell any good things to them.

The person he found now, at least he has no ill feelings towards their Xianbei, or in other words, he only recognizes money and not people.

Through continuous transactions with the other party, they can cultivate the other party into a Pingzhou businessman who is close to their Xianbei. It is best to develop the other party into a comprador of their Xianbei in Pingzhou.

Tuoba Khan agreed to his proposal, "Ajin, you will keep in touch with the people on this line secretly."

Zhuozhou

Jiang Boya, as the think tank who assisted the county governor Zhao Minglou in dealing with the Zhuozhou Incident, was already very interested in the Zhuozhou donkey market. Even if someone deliberately concealed it, he soon found out about Zhao Song's investment in the Cai family.

He found Zhao Minglou and asked him directly, "Does the Sheriff know what Zhao Song did?"

Zhao Minglou looked embarrassed, "I just learned about this." At this time, he was complaining that his uncle had handled the matter too roughly.

If Zhao Song were here, he would definitely complain. Of course he knew it was best not to see the light of the matter. After he signed the contract, he also asked the other party to keep it confidential. However, the Cai family was dissatisfied with being forced to accept Zhao Song's shareholding, so they would naturally find an opportunity to pretend to accidentally reveal it.

Jiang Boya learned that he already knew, so naturally he had to ask how he handled the matter.

Zhao Minglou said, "Of the 500,000 taels of silver that Zhao Song invested in the Cai family, 300,000 taels belong to the governor's wife. Is there a governor here -"

Before Zhao Minglou finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jiang Boya, "No!"

Jiang Boya trusted Xie Zhan, and he believed that the governor would not behave in such an unwise manner.

When Jiang Boya heard what Zhao Minglou just said, he knew that he was using the governor's wife as a shield. It was obvious that he didn't want to deal with Zhao Song.

In fact, it is enough for Zhao Minglou to handle this matter directly. Firstly, he is the governor of Zhuozhou County, and secondly, the wife of the Governor, Zhao, is his sister, so it is appropriate for him to handle it.

If Zhao Minglou doesn't do it, if Jiang Boya does it forcefully, the impact will be too bad. First of all, it will give people the message that they are at odds.

In addition, if this matter comes to the ears of the Governor's wife, wouldn't it be resented by her?

The matter came to a standstill.

"Chief Zhao, you are confused." Jiang Boya stamped his feet, "I will write a letter back to report this to the Governor!"

Zhao Minglou said quickly, "Mr. Jiang, this matter is not that serious. The five hundred thousand taels invested in Zhuozhou are like a drop of water entering the sea, and it will not affect the overall situation."

Jiang Boya said seriously, "Mr. Zhao, the key is that this matter is now known to the whole city, and the impact it has is extremely bad! In addition, do you still remember the mission here?"

Jiang Boya's relegation left Zhao Minglou speechless.

Pingzhou, Changli

The Cai family informed Ding Jun about the Zhao family's forced investment in the Cai family in Zhuozhou. After all, Ding Jun had a contract with the Cai family. But the Cai family also guaranteed that the other party will not participate in the operation, the contract between them will not change, and the quality of the donkey will not change.

This matter was reported by Ding Jun and soon presented to Lu Songli.

As soon as it was brought up, everyone started talking.

"What is the Zhao family doing?"

"Is this just adding fuel to the fire?"

"They did this, does Xie Zhan know?"

Xie Zhan knew that they were plotting against Zhuozhou, and they also knew that Xie Zhan was actively responding. This move by the Zhao family was tantamount to stabbing Xie Zhan in the back.

In fact, they understood the Zhao family's thoughts at a glance.

Lu Songli smiled and shook her head, "What an arrogant family."

She sympathizes with Xie Zhan, really.

Today's Dali is like a decaying ship. Xie Zhan did everything possible to get the position of helmsman. The officials and aristocratic families below are like the sailors on the ship.

As the helmsman of the big ship in Dali, Xie Zhan's ability and his response to problems are remarkable.

But those officials and aristocratic families, especially the latter, had their own ideas and selfish motives, and they couldn't work together with him.

Therefore, it is quite difficult for Xie Zhan to bring Dali out of the predicament by himself.

There was nothing to discuss about this matter, so Lu Songli quickly put it aside, anyway, let the bullets fly for a while.

Then, Jiang Yizhou raised a problem that Pingzhou is currently facing.

"Governor, the counties and counties have responded. There are too many disputes in Pingzhou cases. Some laws do not apply. Let the governor think of a solution."

Lu Songli knew this was a fact. As the density of people in Pingzhou increased, there were more people, more friction, and more disputes.

Guo Chong, Xue Xu, Dong Jichuan and other subordinates all expressed their opinions.

"Governor, now that Pingzhou has its own power, it won't be a problem if we continue to use Dali Law." They can prepare for Pingzhou legislation.

"Governor, as the saying goes, there is no rule without rules. Legislation in the state is a top priority."

"Indeed. The law is the order of the world and the appearance of everything. The law is the way to determine the divisions and stop disputes. After the legislation is enacted, local counties and governments will also have laws to follow."

legislation? Lu Songli pondered, her father had mentioned this to her.

She comes from a later generation with a relatively complete legal system, so she naturally understands the necessity and importance of legislation.

If Pingzhou continues to develop, there will indeed be a need for legislation.

Forewarned is forearmed, without prejudging the waste. Since there is a need, let’s get it started!

"Everyone, who is responsible for this matter?" Lu Songli asked his subordinates.

Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.

Guo Chong raised his hands and said, "Governor, there are specialties in the arts. Although we are familiar with the laws of Dali, we are really not strong in this area. However, there is one person who can solve the worries of the state."

"Who?"

"Zhang Zhongxian." Guo Chong said with a smile, "If the governor gets it, the Pingzhou legislation issue can be easily solved."

Guo Chong spoke highly of this person, but Lu Songli had no impression of him, "Where is this person? Is he in Pingzhou?"

"This man is a Dali official, but he has been demoted since the 23rd year of Tianxi. He is now in his hometown in Qingzhou."

Lu Songli calculated that it had been ten years since Tianxi's twenty-third year, which was five or six years before Emperor Kang Cheng's death.

"Can you invite him to Pingzhou?" Lu Songli asked.

Guo Chong shook his head, "Zhang Zhongxian is a very stubborn old man. I invited him, but he stuck to his corner and refused to move."

After speaking, he paused and then said, "Unless the governor personally invites you, there is no chance."

Lu Songli said nothing, and everyone else disagreed when they heard the words.

"You want the governor to invite him in person? No, it's too dangerous."

"Yes, he is in Qingzhou."

"Governor, we are not in such a hurry about legislation in Pingzhou."

"Yes, at worst, we people will do it slowly."

In short, everything is to dispel the idea of ​​the governor personally inviting people.
