Chapter 39 Kaishi Shipping Division
The civil and military officials in the hall looked at the cabinet, and saw that the cabinet participated in politics, with a calm expression on their faces. Obviously, they knew Ma Jin's decision, not the dictatorship of the Sacred Heart. The ministers wanted to object, but when they remembered the emperor's previous methods, they could not walk and did not dare to stand up to express their opinions.
However, the ministers had no scruples about the few people in the cabinet. After all, such a big thing, the cabinet did not reveal any wind. Now the emperor announced it directly, which made them very passive, which could be said to be unexpected. For a moment, the ministers went to the three auxiliary ministers of the cabinet in anger.
But Ma Jin was obviously not the reassuring person. Soon another bomb was thrown out.
"I have decided to allow the people of Great Zhou to buy and sell horses to the Song State!"
In the future, countries can freely enter and exit the venue by paying taxes according to the rules and obtaining relevant certificates in the Maritime Administration."
The ministers were stunned again, and Bi Yong was even more surprised. Only then did he understand why the envoys from all countries were so happy. It turned out that it was not only the Song State who received this generous condition, but all countries had it.
The emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty had great courage to establish a unified yard on the Great Surrounding Area!
You should know that the land in the northern countries is very barren, with low resources, and many materials are in short supply, and often it takes plunder to meet the needs of the ethnic group.
But now it is different. After the Emperor of Great Zhou established a tentative market, many scarce materials could be purchased in the tentative market, and many problems could be solved. Of course, this is a powerful country like Great Zhou. If other countries dared to establish such a tentative market, they would have been robbed and would not even be left.
Just like the State of Song also established a Maritime Bureau, it only limited its maritime trade with the countries in the Central Region. After all, the State of Song and the State of Zhongdi are separated by the inner sea, and they are not afraid of the countries in the Central Region coming to the door. But it is different in the Eastern Region. If the State of Song dares to establish a market on the border, there will be no jealous people who will be able to hold the market on that day. After all, the name of the State of Song really cannot suppress a few people.
But the Great Zhou is different. The reputation of establishing a country by force was shot with one sword and one shot. From Xuanwu, Zhaowu to Ma Jin Shenwu's reign, we can see how much Zhou attaches importance to martial arts. Its great martial arts are among the best in the five realms. After all, it took only a few decades from a small country to develop into a powerful country in a region, and it has not appeared several times in the history of this world.
Now it has defeated the Liao Kingdom, known as the most powerful country in the Eastern Region, and its reputation is even greater than that of the past.
...
While marveling at the courage of the Emperor of Zhou, Bi Yong also secretly felt relieved.
Since he was not only given such good treatment in Song State, he was relieved. He was afraid that the Emperor of Great Zhou would only give such generous conditions to Song State.
As the saying goes, "If you have nothing to do, you will either be traitor or steal."
But now there is no problem, because the Great Zhou treats the rest of the country the same way.
...
The dinner parted. When Changsun Wuji walked out of the Shenwu Palace, it was the moon in the middle of the sky, and the bright moonlight shone on the ground.
Many court officials passed by him, and stopped and bowed and called the guest servant. Changsun Wuji smiled and nodded as a response, and then walked slowly behind him alone.
Some court officials originally wanted to ask him to drive the same car, but Changsun Wuji politely refused. Seeing that Changsun Wuji insisted on leaving alone, they couldn't persuade him anymore, so they left.
Changsun Wuji's steps were slow and he landed far behind many people.
"Master Gefu..." A call came from behind.
Changsun Wuji turned around and saw that the cabinet was involved in politics, and the Minister of War Kou Zhun was behind him.
Zhao Yanshen touched his beard and said, "It's Brother Ping Zhong, why haven't you left yet?"
Kou Zhun was calm and asked back, "Why didn't the Pavilion Assistant leave?"
Kou Zhun obviously meant something.
Changsun Wuji smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "If I want to think about how to deal with the officials of the court tomorrow, I may be drowned by their spitting stars tomorrow."
Kou Zhun was undeniable and said, "We have participated in the establishment of the court and the opening of the market and shipping department, and they are all good things that benefit the country and the people. What are you afraid of? Besides, Your Majesty gave me the leadership of this matter, so what should I do with the assistant to the cabinet? Besides, Didn't Your Majesty get angry with all the officials of the court at the court meeting some time ago? It's just that the time is getting faster, so what do they dare to do?"
Changsun Wuji said helplessly: "You, you, this kind of stubbornness! They are just standing up to the point. This major matter related to the people's livelihood needs to be discussed by the officials of the court and then make decisions, but Your Majesty...hey..."
"This matter is your Majesty's arbitrary decision. You should not be afraid of taking responsibility. Your Majesty is there in everything." Kou Zhun raised his eyebrows and said seriously.
For Kou Zhun, Changsun Wuji had no choice at all. For Changsun Wuji, Kou Zhun and Wei Zheng were both stinky and hard, upright, jealous of evil, and were very persistent in things. He was a character of not hitting the wall and not looking back.
Changsun Wuji had no choice but to smile bitterly, so he simply ignored him. If he liked to follow, he would follow...
"Both two, wait for me!"
Another figure jumped out. When Changsun Wuji saw it was Xu Jin, he said in surprise: "Gongming? You, haven't you left just now? I clearly saw you leaving there... Why are you still here?"
Xu Jin smiled and pointed to the two of them and said, "Eifu and Ge Lao Kou have not left, how can I leave..."
Changsun Wuji looked at Xu Jin with appreciation. Xu Jin is a person who is capable and capable of doing things, and is still young and can take on important responsibilities.
What a pity! It's not the same as them.
Changsun Wuji thought about it, looked back at the two of them, and said, "There are only three of us here. It just so happens that I have something to discuss with you..."
Kou Zhun and Xu Jin put away their joking expressions and followed Changsun Wuji with a serious expression. Kou Zhun asked, "The assistant to the Pavilion wants to discuss with us, is it a matter of the matter?"
Changsun Wuji said: "This is just one of the things. I want to discuss with you more than this..."
"Gefu, but said it was..."
"We still have to start with the discussion. Have the basic plan been finalized? Is there any establishment of the Maritime Department and the staff of the Maritime Department determined?"
Kou Zhun and Xu Jin looked at each other, and they were helpless. Kou Zhun said: "Gefu, this fact is too hasty, and we can't come up with any decent plan for a while..."
"Although we already have a general understanding of Your Majesty's meaning, this fact involves a lot.
Many places need to be clearly divided and everything needs to be done, which cannot be accomplished in a short time.”
"This is not something you can open just by thinking about it. It will take a while for us to prepare for it..."
Changsun Wuji glanced at them and said seriously: "Then you should be faster. There are still four or five months left to arrange it as soon as possible..."
"The minister of the court, the subordinates thought it was inappropriate to establish a trade with the State of Song."
Xu Jin put forward different views.
Changsun Wuji asked him with interest, "Oh? Tell me..."
Xu Jin said: "In this way of doing business, people always make money, and people lose money. If we only trade with small countries such as Heishui and Yan, it would be fine, because most of the things we have in the Great Zhou Dynasty have, and these are exactly what they need, so that we can make money. On the other hand, most of the things we have in the Great Zhou Dynasty have, and most of them have in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they still have in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Apart from horses, the Song Dynasty has almost nothing. In this way, what benefits can our dynasty get?"
Changsun Wuji stroked his beard and said with a deep meaning: "Since you have considered these, why didn't you tell His Majesty that way?"
Xu Jin was silent, Changsun Wuji said, "Gongming, you are the youngest in the cabinet. You are obviously capable, and you are not inferior to Chunyu Yan in that regard, but Chunyu Yan got his Majesty's different eyes. Do you know why this is?"
"……………” Xu Jin lowered his head and thought, Changsun Wuji said:
Since Your Majesty lets you stay in the cabinet, he recognizes your abilities and plans to reuse you.
But look at yourself, although you have good abilities, you ask yourself, have you really achieved absolute loyalty to Your Majesty?
You should have done something... I will say this, and you can slowly realize it."
Changsun Wuji then said, "As for the problem of Song State, you don't have to worry about it.
I and Mr. Kou have already discussed with His Majesty that I will do this in the Great Zhou Dynasty, which will definitely be beneficial without any harm.
You don’t have to worry about what benefits Song Guohui gets from my Great Zhou, just do your part.
More things should be made known to you, and you will naturally know at that time.
Nowadays, state affairs are complicated, and the burden on you and me is very heavy.
Alas! I don’t know how Di Huaiying and Chunyu Yan asked for things to do?
