Chapter 951: Stop Private Trade and Ask Jingzhao

"Zhang Shibo, in fact, Li Dongzhu did say that those things were very good." Wei Yuefeng also thought that the barbarians were wronged.

"Whether the things are good or not is secondary. The main thing is that the barbarians can't sell them and use them to cheat." Zhang Jiuling has his own judgment.

Some people mistook gems for stones, and then used them to increase the weight when selling other people's goods. The value of gems does not mean that the person is right.

"Listen to Zhang Shibo in everything." Wei Yuefeng did not refute.

Anyway, the money he lost was recovered, and as for the fines to the other party, it belongs to the Shibosi.

But he was worried: "Zhang Shibo, the court did not ask you to collect taxes. Now you are asked to clarify some situations in the Shibosi."

"It's clear. It was Li Yi who wrote a letter asking me to collect taxes when the time is right.

In the past month, the Shibosi has collected things worth 32,000 strings, and the total trade volume is 320,000 strings.

If it weren't for the small number of exchange coupons, I would let the barbarians accept exchange coupons for trading instead of bartering."

Zhang Jiuling has a stubborn temper. He is unhappy if the official says he is not suitable.

He returned to his hometown and wanted to build a road, so he wrote to the court again, and then he became a road builder.

History was changed by Li Yi. On his way back, Li Yi sent someone to catch up with him, told him to build a road, and gave him a lot of money.

According to history, he should not have written to the court yet.

As a result, he was arranged to work as a Maritime Customs Officer in Guangzhou. The Guangzhou government could not control the Maritime Customs, and had to cooperate with the Maritime Customs to crack down on smuggling.

At the beginning, the Maritime Customs did not have its own staff, so Zhang Jiuling found people from his hometown and helped while learning.

His hometown is Qujiang, Shaozhou, which is relatively close to Guangzhou.

He built the road, and everyone remembered his goodness. He called out and people followed him.

Therefore, he listened to Li Yi and helped the court collect taxes, and the collected things were not sold in Guangzhou.

When the amount was large, a team was sent to Chang'an and handed over to Li Yi.

Let Li Yi exchange it for money to the court. If it was someone else, Zhang Jiuling would not be at ease. Even if it was given to the Ministry of Revenue, he felt that the Ministry of Revenue would not sell it.

As for whether Li Yi would embezzle, it was simply a joke. How much money did Li Yi spend on road construction? Would he care about tens of thousands of strings of cash?

Wei Yuefeng also reached out his chopsticks to scoop up some beef chili sauce: "I'll wait for them to sell the soap and soap they brought from Chang'an, and then sell it at a higher price."

"You must keep your little mirror well. Sometimes the Yi people will hire local people to rob when they see profit." Zhang Jiuling reminded.

The Yi people are not stupid. Sometimes they will unite, and sometimes they will hire local people to work.

The Yi people exchanged their own things for things from the Tang Dynasty, and then exchanged for some food, and then used the food to hire people.

The local people with household registration dare not do bad things, but the mountain people without household registration are fierce.

Wei Yuefeng was not afraid: "I also found many people and made an agreement with them that I would give them some of the things after selling them.

Li Dongzhu also gave me a lot of pills for treating malaria. If they have malaria, I will give them to them for free.

They said that your majesty asked people to make them and gave them to them. They are very grateful to your majesty."

Wei Yuefeng is confident that everyone can get along well with each other.

Six mountain people who had malaria were cured by his pills.

"Yes, that's your Majesty. I want to write to Li Yi, no matter how much he wants, but unfortunately he doesn't have pigeons to send to me."

Zhang Jiuling said that he raised pigeons.

Some days ago, he sent someone to Chang'an with pigeon cages and gave them to Li Yi.

When Li Yi has something to do, or something in the court, he will release a few pigeons to send letters back.

But Li Yi in Chang'an said that he also raised pigeons, but he didn't see them. I think they were sent to the border.

"Zhang Shibo, according to past experience, there will be more Yi merchants in two months. We should be on guard against merchants who have contacted the Yi people to go to other seaside to trade."

Wei Yuefeng reminded that the 10% tax was too high. The Yi people would rather pay half of the profit to the merchants and keep half of it, which is less than paying taxes.

Bi Gou nodded: "This is easy. Issue a notice to let everyone know that if any merchant is found to have private transactions with the barbarians, the informant can get half of the value of the goods."

"That's great." Wei Yuefeng admitted that this method was good.

Half of the goods is simply against the sky, which is the money that many locals cannot earn in several lifetimes.

I believe that once the notice is issued, countless people will be watching everywhere, hoping to catch one.

Get rich overnight and become a big family.

Wei Yuefeng knew that after the notice was issued, merchants would not dare to trade with others privately.

The difference between getting a little profit and taking risks is too big.

The person who reported got half of the things, how would the government deal with the merchant?

Confiscate all the goods traded? It's too beautiful to think about it. The government will raid the house.

"I wonder what Chang'an looks like this year?" Zhang Jiuling missed Chang'an.

When he was in Chang'an, he saw Li's manor constantly taking out good things.

When he left, the water network was built and used, and the merchants who came in winter said that they started to have sleds.

Wei Yuefeng shook his head: "When I came back, it was almost the same as before, but a large area in the south of the city had been renovated."

"Ask tomorrow." Zhang Jiuling brought the wine.

The next day, a notice was issued, asking everyone to actively report.

People were also sent to other places to spread the word. Few people could read, so it was mainly spread by word of mouth.

As he thought, many mountain people came out and stared, and the fishermen stared even more.

I hope someone will come to trade privately soon so that I can live a good life.

The merchants were silent, it was too cruel. The more rewards they offered, the more severe the punishment they would suffer after being caught.

"Are there any merchants from Chang'an? My Zhang Weng wants to know something."

The steward of Zhang Jiuling's family came to the place where the merchants gathered and shouted.

"I, I am, I am from the Tong family in Chang'an. My owner has a good relationship with Owner Li. I know."

Someone immediately stood up and announced his name, thinking that his family's name was not very useful, and felt that Owner Li was the owner.

"Follow me." The steward waved.

The merchant who was assigned hurried to catch up, and the relationship with the Maritime Customs had to be established.

"Brother Tong." Someone in the crowd shouted.

"Wait a minute, there is someone else. The one who called me is the steward of the third room of the Liang family. He has a surname like me."

The man stopped, looked back, and introduced himself to Zhang Jiuling's steward.

"Come together. UU Reading www.uukanshu．net" The steward agreed.

The man ran out and clasped his fists to the people of the Tong family to express his gratitude.

They worked with the master's family, and those who did a good job would be given the surname of the master's family.

It turns out that the surname is not important. If you follow the master's surname, you are a member of the family.

The two of them went together and stopped outside the door. The manager went in first to talk to Zhang Jiuling.

After a while, he came out: "Come in, don't tell lies."

"No, what can be false?" said the Tong family.

"We know that Li Dongzhu and Zhang Weng are good friends. He gave Zhang Weng money to build roads and arranged for Yulin Flying Cavalry to escort him. No, it was arranged by His Majesty." The Liang family followed up.

He quickly corrected him when he said something wrong. His Majesty is the most important, and only His Majesty can mobilize Yulin Flying Cavalry.

After entering, Zhang Jiuling gestured: "Please sit down, both of you. Come, serve tea. Is Chang'an okay now?"
