Gao Zhisheng still feels that the word bidding is quite new. He has never heard of any imperial government using this method to involve the people in the construction. The people in Songshou County are talking about it in the streets and alleys. The Chinese methods are both novel and exciting, and while admiring them, they are also somewhat skeptical. Even Gao Zhisheng is thinking, will this work? But no matter what, if it is really like what Wu Ling said, Wang Pang’s starting point It was excellent. This also made Gao Zhisheng feel even more that maybe Wang Pang could really help him.

The government office of Songshou County is in the southeast of the city. There is also a notice posted at the door of the government office. The door of the government office is open, and there is a constant stream of people coming in and out. There are also people who want to enter but dare not, and hesitantly go back and forth at the door of the government office. As he walked, he stood up on his tiptoes and looked inside the government office.

The three people finally arrived at the government office of Songshou County. There were no guards guarding the door of the government office today. As soon as they entered the door, they saw a table. Cai Jing was sitting behind the table. There were many people surrounding the table. He Distribute the printed form of the tender document to everyone. "Do you want to bid for the job of building the dock?" A strong man stood in front of Cai Jing, holding the form of the tender document that Cai Jing just handed over in his hand. It seemed that Cai Jing was explaining to him , the people next to me also listened attentively and with bated breath.

"Here you go, make careful calculations based on this when you get back, and then go to the government office to find Mr. He. If Mr. He nods, then you will accept the job."

The big man grinned and said, "That's good. I'll go back and find someone to do the math for me. If I can continue this job, all the strong men in our village will have something to do."[

Someone next to him said: "You big man, don't be happy so early. Is it still uncertain whether you can take it or not? I think you should let us do this job." He said and was about to take it from the big man's hand. Tender document.

As soon as the big man returned his hand, he hurriedly protected him and said with a glare: "What are you talking about? Didn't you understand the notice? The prince said that there must be fair competition. Let's compete with whose craftsmen are better and who reported it to the prince. Prices are low.”

Cai Jing smiled and waved his hands: "Don't argue, don't argue. Now the prince has said that as long as everyone is willing to contribute and do it well! There is plenty of work that can be done! I'll give you a copy, and you can write it when you get back." After saying this, he handed it over. Give one to the person next to the big man.

The man took the bidding document, and the big man said unconvinced, "It's useless to give it to you. You are so poor, how can you get the materials? I don't think you can compete with us for this job."

"Hey, we are poor. Our village will have no food rations in the second half of the year, but so what? You said I didn't read the notice, but I think you didn't! As long as you can take this job, you can go to Yongzhou I went to CPIC Bank for a loan, and the prince said he would lend money to everyone so that everyone could make money. Who wouldn’t rush to do such a good thing, don’t you think so?”

When he said this, everyone around the table burst out laughing: "Yes, yes!" "There's no such thing as fair competition!" "Give me a copy and I'll throw it into the city wall!" "Me too! If you want a share, I will help pave the way for the new city!" Everyone surrounded Cai Jing, and Cai Jing suddenly became confused.

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, we all have a share!" Cai Jing said, without even raising his head as he distributed the instructions in his hands. After receiving the instructions, these people turned around and walked out as if they were in a hurry, for fear of being delayed. Your life will be taken away by others.

After Zhang Ping and Gao Zhisheng entered the gate of the government office, they stopped to watch for a while due to such a lively scene. Gao Zhisheng asked: "I also saw Prince's CPIC Bank in Yongzhou. I thought it was just for convenience." The merchants kept the silver temporarily or exchanged it for your Song Dynasty silver notes, but they didn't know that they could still lend money to others."

"There are so many things you don't know. Your Majesty's bank can not only lend money to people who get construction projects, but also earn interest when you deposit and withdraw money in it?!"

"Then, didn't your prince suffer a loss?!"

"Haha, of course not. The prince said that the bank eats the interest rate difference and will not lose money. How can a smart person like our prince do a loss-making business?!" Zhang Ping said without pride.

Wu Ling came over. Just now he went to ask Wang Pang where he was, but now he came back to the two people: "We are slow again..."

Gao Zhisheng was startled: "What? Where has he gone again?"

"Haha, I didn't leave Songshou County, I just left the city and went to the coast. Prime Minister, do you want to go find him, or should we just wait here?" Wu Ling said with a smile.

"Look for it! You prince is so elusive. The sooner I find it, the sooner I will feel at ease." Gao Zhisheng said, and followed Zhang Ping and the others out of the city towards the coast. After leaving Songshou County, there is the coast a few dozen miles to the southeast. Once out of the city, pedestrians The edge gradually became less and less, and the three of them walked quickly for half an hour, and finally, near the seaside, they saw the figures of several people on a mound in the distance.

"Look, the prince is there!" Wu Ling pointed at Wang Pang's back. At this moment, Wang Pang was pointing at an old dock not far away with He Xingyuan and Li Jie beside him.

"This place is reserved for the time being as excessive. Look to the east. A pier ten times larger than the current one needs to be built there, which must accommodate more than ten medium-sized ships docking at the same time. You should plan this matter carefully. In addition, , we have discussed the design of the new city that you gave Mr. He, and we will proceed according to that design. The dedicated land sales area in the new city can be larger, and the design of government residences can be streamlined, so these can be saved. place, and also divide more space into commercial and residential areas.”

When Wang Bian said this, Li Jiemo kept it in mind and kept nodding.

"Oh, also, I saw that there is another building in the drawing, marked as my garden. I thought, don't put so many gardens in that place, just change it into a college. My garden is in the old city Just find a house that is spacious enough for working.”[

As Wang Bian said, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. He turned around and put up the awning with his hands. When he saw clearly who was coming, he smiled and said to He Xingyuan and Li Jie beside him: "Aren't you afraid that we don't have enough money? Here comes the money sender. Already."

"Can we use Dali's money?" Li Jie looked at Zhang Ping and the others with curiosity on his face.

Wang Pang did not answer Li Jie. He just watched the horses of the three people approaching, and then he cupped his hands and said: "Prime Minister, I'm so sorry. I'm really busy with official duties. I apologize for not being considerate with me! Haha."

Gao Zhisheng didn't know whether it was because he was in a hurry or because he saw Wang Bian was eager. His face was red and he said with a look of shame: "Your Majesty, I really have something important to do, so I came here to bother you."

Wang Pang glanced at Zhang Ping: "General Zhang, you too, just come and tell me if you have anything to do. Why bother the Prime Minister to come in person?"

Zhang Ping and others have had a tacit understanding with Wang Pang for several years. Naturally they knew that these words were addressed to Gao Zhisheng, so he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Your Highness, Wu Ling met Ji Laqing in Yongzhou."

"Oh?" Wang Pang's brows raised slightly in an instant, why did this evildoer come to Yongzhou?

Zhang Ping continued: "We suspected that the poisoning of everyone in our house was related to this person, and we were about to report it to the prince. It happened that the prime minister said that he knew this person and had something urgent to say to the prince. Therefore, the subordinates took matters into their own hands. Our colleagues from the State Council are here to see you." Wang Pang nodded. Needless to say, Zhang Ping's handling was not a problem at all.

"Mr. He, Li Jie, please go back to Songshou County in advance of Zhang Ping..." Wang Pang said to the people around him.

"What about you, Your Majesty?" He Xingyuan asked

"I am entering the city now because I am afraid that the people will ask me questions. I will wait until it gets darker before entering the city." The king turned on his horse and said to Gao Zhisheng: "Prime Minister, I just saw that your horse is good. Why don't we ride on it?" How about a run on the coast for a while?"

This was so affectionate for Gao Zhisheng. He didn't know how to start talking to Wang Pang about this matter. There were military and national affairs here, the love between children, hatred for traitors, and dissatisfaction with Emperor Dali. I am afraid that Gao Zhisheng would not be happy with the disappointment of trust in front of the servants next to the king.

Under Gao Zhisheng's crotch is a brown-red Dali horse, also known as the Yunnan horse, which is a famous ancient horse breed. Gao Zhisheng himself is also a man of both civil and military skills. The two handsome young men whipped the horse and drove away along the coastline. .

"This prince, leave as soon as you say!" Looking at Wang Pang Gao Zhisheng's back, He Xingyuan shook his head and smiled sadly. They also got on their horses and returned to the city. Among them, Li Jie and Wang Pang had the shortest time. As he walked, he said to He Xingyuan: "Mr. He, our prince has a really weird temper. He is a very good person. How on earth can you get along well with him and understand his temper after following him for so long?"

He Xingyuan smiled: "Why are you irritating his temper? Our approach is not to irritate his temper, but to do things right, and the prince will naturally give clear rewards and punishments. Let's go, the prince is so determined to build Yongzhou well. , we have to work harder."

But it was said that Wang Pang and Gao Zhisheng galloped along the coastline for more than ten miles. Wang Pang always controlled the speed to be one horse head faster than Gao Zhisheng. As he ran, he secretly looked at Gao Zhisheng. Seeing him struggling to catch up, he seemed unwilling to admit defeat. Looking like this, I secretly sighed that Dali has talents, but I don’t know what kind of opportunity this person has. As Gao Zhisheng ran down the road, his depressed mood finally got a little outlet. This is different from the past two days of rushing, where he had to give way while rushing. Pedestrian, but at this moment, all he could think of was running wildly.

Finally, the two reined in the reins at the same time, and they both laughed. Gao Zhisheng let out a long breath, and Wang Pang said: "The country has surrendered!"

"I am convinced! Your Majesty has good horses and talents, but I have always been inferior to you!" Gao Zhisheng shook his head and said unconvinced.

"Haha, now you can tell me, why are you here?" The two turned their horses and walked slowly back to Songshou County.

This word is a pun. You can understand why Cheng came to Yongzhou and why he was anxious to find Wang Pang. Gao Zhisheng did not want to hide the matter, so he told what happened in Dali and the Ji Laqing who changed his name to Jia Qing. , and how the Taoist priest Xuan Qing gave advice to the Emperor of Dali, how he gave Duan Suxu to the family, and how he offered gifts to unify the country and sow the relationship between Wang Pang and the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. When he said it, he was very confused in his heart. This was not betrayal of Dali. ?

But if not, then Dali may be destroyed by Jia Qing's bad idea. Does Gao Zhisheng have any other ideas?
