MTL - Feng Xing-Chapter 60

The so-called accumulation of quotations refers to those who have not received their lessons, are backlogged in warehouses and cannot be sold onshore, or those who have completed their courses but cannot be sold, are called accumulation quotations.

To put it more bluntly, the Salt Transportation Department sets out at the beginning of each year to determine the salt production for the year in advance based on past practices and the amount reported in the general commercial report. Before the outline is opened, the salt merchants need to accept the guidance of the main course.

It seems that the Department of Salt Transportation has done a lot of work in order not to be prolific and not backlogged, but in fact this is just superficial. Since the amount must be determined long before the outline is opened, there is naturally a lot of room for manipulation. The Salt Transport Department spoke with the practice of previous years. Even if the salt merchants don't want to claim it, I'm afraid they can't.

This requires coordination between the general merchant and the major retail merchants below. In short, this number should not be ugly on the surface.

This is why Feng Sheng said before that Jin Fu wanted to thank her. Because this is an endless cycle, the price of salt is too high, and the official salt cannot be sold, but in order to make the amount of the opening plan not ugly, the retail merchants under the general merchant were allocated a lot of amounts that they did not want.

After paying the main course, you have to pay various miscellaneous lessons when transporting the salt, and the filial piety after transporting it out. It’s okay if the salt can be sold, but if it can’t be sold. Therefore, every year, there are salt merchants who paid for the main course but did not go to lead the salt, and it was this batch of accumulated leads that Feng Sheng made up their minds about.

After the decree from Huaibei to help Huainan deal with Jiyin came down, Feng Sheng waited for Fan Jinchuan to come back and started preparations. It's a pity that Fan Jinchuan was delayed for some days in the capital, and it was already winter when he came back.

After Fan Jinchuan came back, he sent instructions to the Taizhou and Tongzhou branches. The two divisions didn't say anything, but there was no movement. Fan Jinchuan had no choice but to write again.

This time, there was a response. Both sub-divisions said that they were making preparations, and they discussed with Fan Jinchuan on how to transport the accumulated salt.

The meaning of the two branches is to let the Huaibei branch do the transportation themselves. They are not responsible for the transportation. The handling of the accumulation is Huaibei's own business. When the time comes, the credit will naturally be attributed to Huaibei and has nothing to do with Huainan.

This is emotional.

As Shangfeng, he could only appease the subordinates. Admiral Fan Jinchuan supervised the reform of the Lianghuai Salt Road.

He Lun was full of confidence, and after he came to his senses, he wanted to do something to make up for it. But it wasn't until this incident that he realized that he was too careless in his salt transportation, and few people below listened to him. Anyway, Taizhou Branch and Tongzhou Branch didn't listen to him, even if he understood the righteousness, the other party had many excuses to shirk.

This matter was learned by Feng Sheng, she wrote to Fan Jinchuan and said: "The other party may be delaying time on purpose."

Why the delay?

Getting angry is one, being unhappy is another, but this is not enough to make the other party deliberately disobey orders, so there is only one possibility—on the surface, there is indeed a backlog of salt, and the backlog of salt in major salt farms should be piled up like a mountain , but in fact, who would look at the mountain of salt without thinking about it?

Feng Sheng guessed that Fan Jinchuan would definitely argue with her about this matter for a long time, but she didn't expect that the other party would come to Haizhou in person.

"Brother Fang Xian."

When we met again, it was still a salute, but not only Fan Jinchuan had changed a lot, Feng Sheng had also changed a lot.

"Compared to the past, Brother Xian is much darker and thinner."

Feng Sheng couldn't help touching her face, it seems that everyone who hasn't seen her for a long time will always say this when they meet again.

"My lord is still in good spirits, and his spirit is radiant."

Fan Jinchuan could hear it naturally, he laughed and looked at her helplessly: "Won't my brother welcome me in and sit down?"

Only then did Feng Sheng step aside: "I only care about talking, please, my lord."

The servant brought tea, and the two talked while drinking tea. They haven't seen each other for nearly half a year. They thought they should have a lot to talk about, but besides talking about business, it seemed that they could only talk about business.

After talking for a while, Feng Sheng took the initiative to get to the point: "My lord, is this trip in person for the sake of attracting attention? Or is it because you want to move two sub-divisions, I don't quite agree?"

"I have them all. I mainly want to visit my virtuous brother. I have delivered letters to you several times asking you to come to Yangzhou, but you never come, so I am the only one who will come to you."

Feng Sheng's eyebrows were half down: "There are too many things, if you press the gourd to float the ladle, adults should be able to understand."

"I thought Brother Xian was hiding from me."

Feng Sheng looked at Fan Jinchuan's face and found that his expression was normal.

So she let out a breath and said with a smile: "This must be an illusion of adults." After a pause, she said: "Let's talk about business, my lord still wants to move two divisions?"

Fan Jinchuan nodded: "I think this is the best opportunity to force them to come up with their previous accumulations. If they can't get them out, they can take down this group of silverfish."

"My lord should have heard the truth of being tough and easy to break. Being a human being, staying on the front line is not for the sake of meeting in the future, but to prevent the dog from jumping over the wall. With our current ability, it is not enough to shake the entire Huainan and the two branches. It has been withdrawn, and the New Deal has not yet been implemented, so it does not make much difference to sit in those positions."

"What does that brother mean?"

"Step by step, draw it slowly."

"Can-"

At this time, someone suddenly broke in: "This statement is too demoralizing, and it will be exhausted again and again. This Lord Fang doesn't seem to understand the meaning."

Feng Sheng looked at the person and frowned: "This—"

"This is Eunuch Huo."

It is also the reason why Fan Jinchuan will be delayed in the capital this time.

The person who came was wearing an ordinary silk gown, but it was obvious that he was different from ordinary people. His yin and yang tone, as well as his standing and walking posture, seemed a bit feminine.

"Okay, Mr. Fang, you don't need to be too polite, just sit down." After the first person sat down, Eunuch Huo raised his chin and said.

Feng Sheng sat down below.

"The trial implementation of the New Deal in Huaibei has already achieved results, so Huainan is only a matter of time. Mr. Fang said that he will take it step by step, and it will be too demoralizing. His Majesty has issued an imperial edict, and you have already had the most powerful plan." Backing the mountain, is it possible that the king's land in the whole world, a small Huainan, can still go to the sky? Why should Mr. Fang be so afraid of this."

"This—" Feng Sheng hesitated, and said: "It's not that the lower officials are afraid, it's just that everything is easy to break and difficult to rebuild..."

"Okay, Mr. Fang, don't talk about your bookish arguments, as long as our family says it's okay, this matter will be resolved as soon as possible, and those disobedient moths will be shaved off, so the New Deal will be implemented smoothly."

Feng Sheng went out for a trip and asked someone to host a banquet.

If there was only Fan Jinchuan, you could do whatever you wanted, but now there is an extra father-in-law from the palace, so you can't take it lightly. After having a banquet with Huo Gonggong, Feng Sheng and Fan Jinchuan left from the guests together.

It's winter moon, and the night wind is very cold and chilly, which makes people sober.

"Is this person sent by His Majesty?" Feng Sheng asked.

Fan Jinchuan smiled wryly and nodded.

"Are you in a hurry?"

"I'm not very clear about this. Your Majesty didn't say anything bluntly. He just sent this person here to help us implement the New Deal."

"Your Majesty didn't say it clearly, but after this person came, he always pointed fingers? I said why did your lord come here, and the reason was actually for this reason."

"I came to Haizhou not because of him." Fan Jinchuan said.

"Not for him, why?"

Facing her staring eyes, Fan Jinchuan suddenly lost his words.

"I-"

Feng Sheng interrupted suddenly: "What is your lord going to do? Do you really just listen to him?"

"Actually, what Huo Gonggong said is not unreasonable. Those people are resistance. If we can take the opportunity to shave off these people, it would be a good idea."

"Of course I know, but who should I replace? I still feel that Huainan's form is too complicated. Obviously, using our method can make the war go away, moisten things silently, and all it takes is some time. Now, I'm afraid it will be a big fight."

Fan Jinchuan suddenly let out a long breath: "It doesn't matter if it's a big fight or not, as long as it can be done."

"we can only do this."

Seeing that he had arrived at Feng Sheng's residence, Fan Jinchuan stopped.

"It's getting late, you should go to bed earlier, we'll talk about these things tomorrow."

Feng Sheng nodded: "My lord, rest early too."

Fan Jinchuan watched Feng Sheng enter the door.

After Feng Sheng entered, the moment he closed the door, seeing him staring at this place, he couldn't help but frown.

Ugh.
