The first thousand two hundred and twenty-seventh chapters of the world

Where is this? The Wende Hall of the Song Dynasty! This is a place where officials and important officials in the court discuss state affairs. It is a great honor to be able to stand here as a merchant. The merchants from the people are naturally flattered and trembled.

However, those merchants from the royal family looked down on these people, believing that they were not allowed to be promoted. The officials praised them too much, while the generals looked down on these royal people, believing that they had reached today by relying on the face of the Tian family.

But to be honest, no one looks down on the merchants from the public. For those who start from scratch and work hard on their own industries, royal merchants have their own support, and general merchants have family backgrounds, but they have nothing.

Zhao Zhen looked behind the screen. As the saying goes, there are rivers and lakes where there are people. How could these merchants not meet in this "pool" of the Song Dynasty? Zhao Zhen asked the three talents to choose the standard for family resources, not types, which made many peers collide together.

Since it was a large-scale bidding and investment, Zhao Zhen was not polite. He coughed dryly and walked out from behind the screen. Sancai spoke sharply with a sharp voice: "Silent! The emperor comes out! Worship!"

The hall, which was originally a little noisy, suddenly became quiet, as if the whole world had lost its voice. At this time, no matter who it was, he would shut up immediately, turn around and look at Zhao Zhen, and pay respectful respectful worship...

The crowd bowed like waves, and the clothes were wrinkled neatly like waves. After Sancai said, "Flat!", he slowly returned to straightening.

At this time, many people stole a lot of Zhao Zhen. For them, the official family was both familiar and unfamiliar. It was because of the emperor's support for merchants. He could hear his name every now and then. Unfamiliar was the first time he saw Tianyan.

Many people's expressions were the same as the first time Shi Pide Sagu met Zhao Zhen, but their eyes were more awe, awe of this king who seemed young but had both tenderness and thunder.

It can be said that every Song people are familiar with Zhao Zhen’s deeds and are also extremely proud of Zhao Zhen. Who doesn’t want their king to be a wise monarch?

In fact, Zhao Zhen completely agreed with the expectations of the people. He was mainly benevolent internally and extremely tough externally. While allowing the people to receive favors, they also made them feel the strength of the country, and almost satisfy all the fantasies of ordinary people about the emperor...

It can be said that among the people, Zhao Zhen's reputation has surpassed Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Emperor Wu of Han was powerful and powerful, Emperor Taizong of Tang killed his brothers, while Zhao Zhen was first-class filial and had a moderate civil and military manner. The Dangxiang people and Jurchens surrendered to the Song Dynasty and fell into the pile of blessings.

To be honest, so many people staring at him, but they are not court officials, which makes Zhao Zhen a little unnatural, but then he feels relieved. His attitude towards the people and officials is different. For Zhao Zhen, he is responsible to the people, so he naturally has pressure, while officials are responsible to him. In contrast, there is no pressure.

"I am really eye-opening today. I didn't expect that there were so many wealthy merchants in the Song Dynasty in Beijing alone! I feel very comforted!" Zhao Zhen looked at the merchants in the hall and sighed slightly. Yes, these merchants are not only a manifestation of the economic strength of the Song Dynasty, but also the result of his sowing back then.

"Is your business good recently?"

Following Zhao Zhen’s question, a group of merchants looked around and finally replied carefully: “Thank the blessing of the official family, the market will be prosperous and the business will be prosperous!”

The merchants of the royal family said this. After all, they were the strictest controlled by Zhao Zhen. Moreover, Zhao Zhen was also known as the leader of the Zhao clan in Tianshui. It was not a joke. Even if the zodiac sign was in front of the official family, you should be careful. The zodiac sign was just helping the official family manage the clan.

The merchants in the generals were much more generous: "With the care of the officials, our merchants are much better than before. Do you think so?"

"Oh? If I remember well, you are Cao Kang, a subsidiary of the Cao family? I heard that the business in Zhending Mansion is not as uncontaminated as you. Why, the business has grown bigger and has reached Beijing City?"

Cao Kang was not afraid, but said with a flattering smile: "The government is really unforgettable. I just saw me and recorded it at a glance when I was worshiping the sky in the southern suburbs. Although I have received the kindness, I know what kind of materials I am. Since I can't get on the horse and can't draw the bow, then don't eat the salary from the court. I'll pay taxes for the court."

Zhao Zhen nodded: "Well, I heard that after you are the first general to take the lead in giving up the court's salary, I will naturally not take back your kindness. The sixth-rank Zhaowu Captain will put you on your forehead, but don't bully others with your power!"

Cao Kang's eyes lit up, and he immediately bowed: "Thank you, the official! Cao Kang must be respectful and cautious, and dare not act rampant!"

Zhao Zhen smiled and turned to everyone and said loudly: "I saw that I knew I could not go to the battlefield and then went to business and still had a good time. This is a wise move! In this way, not only will I not occupy the quota of military generals, but I will pay commercial taxes for the court. Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

Everyone understood what Zhao Zhen meant after a little guess and echoed: "Your Majesty is wise!"

The children of the royal family even understood Zhao Zhen’s intention. It can be said that among these merchants, the royal family’s business was the easiest. After all, the Song Dynasty is still a human society. When the children of the royal family look for ways, the relationship between the tycoon can be quite convenient.

While making money easily, they also took the high subsidies from Dasong, which was really unreasonable. It was also the reason why Cao Kang looked down on them.

For Cao Kang, even if the children of the generals cannot kill the enemy on the battlefield, they can still pay taxes for the court. The officials said that this is also a contribution, but not only does the children of the royal family pay less taxes, but they also have to get money from the court. This is a group of borers!

Although the same is true for the former generals, the generals are no longer worms, so they are increasingly looking down on the royal family...

"Erlang of the Zhao family, you are talking!" Cao Kang said in a voice that was just enough for Zhao Zhen to hear in the crowd. After a flash, almost everyone turned their heads and stared at the young master Zhao Huan in white clothes and gold and silver.

Zhao Huan is a representative figure in the royal family. His glass business is the best and largest. He even sold it to the Abbas Dynasty and Europa. However, the commercial tax he pays every year is far less than that of other merchants. This is the privilege of the royal family. Now that he is staring at everyone, his scalp is really numb.

"Officials,... I, Zhao Huan, can't talk about others, I can only say that I will not take any subsidies from the royal family in the future, and the commercial taxes of Guanghe Business Company are as much as Cao Kang's payment!"
