The story of life and death starting from the gangster Liu Han, 30 years of fighting history (9)

After that, it was all the story of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the imperial court disputes began. Please look at the first chapter, so that there is roughly a context.

Continue to the previous chapter:

On this day, Liu Chu and Yang Kang made an appointment to check the location of the two energy storage stations given by Yang Kang on the Minjiang River. They rode their horses and chatted.

Elder Kang, I see that the minjiang river is extremely high and the water is rapid, and it is indeed a good place to build a station.

Yes, do you know which places in the whole Song Dynasty are the most suitable for building a station? Liu Chu thought about it, it should be Dianzang and our Minjiang River Basin, right?

Haha, Liu Chu, it seems that you are a widow who can be taught also. When I was in charge of the River Division, I deliberately wrote it down. These two places are the most suitable places in the whole basin, and there is no other home. Yang Kang smiled triumphantly.

But Elder Kang, even so, how can you guarantee that Great Song needs this energy so much, what if you can't sell it? Liu Chu frowned a little sadly.

Yang Kang nodded, in order to reassure you, I can talk to you a little more. The current prime minister, Wang Anshi, came up to change the law and laid off a large number of redundant personnel, not only that, but also reduced the expenses of many households. Originally, we in the Song Dynasty have always had the construction of energy storage stations. When I was still in the Ministry of Works, I checked the information, and compared with the previous Mu que Mu Xiang, An Shi Gong cut off 80% of the energy storage station plan.

yes? so much? Liu Chu was a little surprised. Yes, not only that, but his change method actually made the economy of the Great Song Dynasty better, and he also joined the organization that did trade together, that is, to reduce taxes and trade with the Western Xia and the Great Liao.

I heard that many people in the imperial court at that time opposed this world trade and transit organization? Liu Chu asked.

Yes, many people are opposed, the great emperor can't make up his mind, and Daliao asks us to open up this and open that. This is all open, how to manage? All sentient beings, peddlers and pawns, are open, do not want to rebel? The people of the Great Song Dynasty did not care.

Liu Chu stood aside and replied that it was not, nor was it not answered, and he could only smile and smile.

Yang Kang also ignored Liu Chu and continued, but you haven't heard of the big things in the slippery world... What's up? Liu Chu could finally pick up the conversation.

This Great Liao actually asked us to guarantee the length of our labor... Well? What is this thing? Never heard of it!

It means that we can only work for 5 days in seven days...

Outrageous... Liu Chu said angrily, is there still no Wang Fa... These three days will be rested at both ends, will these hard laborers still have to struggle? Want to eat and dress without working? They did the opposite

Hum, even a small city dweller like you knows the truth, these northern barbarians actually have to be aggressive to us... Only in the end, at Wang Xiang's insistence, the Great Emperor finally agreed, and Yang Kang shook his head and said, Dealing with Daliao, Wang Xiang will come from now on.

Not good!

Not good! Liu Chu added a sentence.

However, the blessings and misfortunes are unknown, and during this time, economic growth has taken off by leaps and bounds. If you think about it, the energy to be used has increased, but the station has become less, if we do it first, what will happen?

Liu Chu suddenly realized, so the Great Emperor also understood the situation and wanted to intervene? Yes, Yang Kang said, if those official stocks are allowed to take the lead, we will only have to eat cabbage. After saying that, the two laughed and rode away.
