【Finally caught up.】

"I said Zhang Jiu, you have been bored here for a few days, and it's time to go out for a walk."

"Didn't I just talked about it yesterday? I'll stay here and wait for the conference to talk about it."

After living in the club of the Emperor Song Natural Society for a few days, Zhang Hui was entangled by Li Ying early in the morning, which made Zhang Jiu helpless.

"The conference will officially begin tomorrow. If there are any arrangements at the conference, maybe I won't have time to visit. It just so happens that there are no interesting lectures or interesting discussions today."

"That's because you're gone! Why didn't you ask me out yesterday morning?" Zhang Hui asked.

"That..." Li Ying could only laugh dryly.

"It's because of the seminar on the round cutting technique in Hall 9!" Zhang Hui revealed his true feelings and asked, "Why didn't you ask me to go the day before yesterday?"

"This..." Li Ying could only laugh dryly.

"It's because of the preaching of the formula of the elliptical circumference of Li Yuanju in Suiyang!"

Li Ying was repeatedly asked and asked back, "Which Zhang Jiu, which event are you going to listen to today?"

Zhang Jiu hesitated for a moment.

It was the last day before the conference. Whether it was a paper lecture or a topic seminar, there were much fewer than the previous two days, with only a few sporadic sessions. The seminars that did not learn to register in advance were idle and had no value for participation...

"...I haven't thought about it yet," he said.

"Look, it's okay, right?" Li Ying advised, "I finally came here. I have to go and take a walk. By the way, I can buy some Tokyo scenery and take it back."

"There is nothing to go!" Zhang Hui's refusal was still determined, "You can buy Tokyo Fengyou brought back here, it's cheaper... This is what Li Jiu said."

On the day when I lived here, Zhang Hui, Li Ying was told that there were also sales agents here. As long as the things members wanted to buy were just told to Xuehui in the sales agent catalog, they would just entrust them to the Xuehui. They could also purchase them in a unified manner and also cover stamp duty.

The personnel within the society, such as assistants, officers, managers, and positions are borrowed from the title of official positions, and people are transferred from the Prime Minister's Mansion. However, they do not have the arrogance of the seventh rank in front of the door, and are willing to serve the members of the society.

Li Ying went to see it early and said that the agents sold all the good things, and some of them were hard to buy even if they were rich. - all the cotton cloths of wax [timber dye] and wax [bati] were guild prices, which were 20% to 40% cheaper than when sold on the market. Silver mirrors and fragrances are all the same, and they are all new products this year, rather than old items stored.

When Li Ying said it at that time, Zhang Hui could see that he had some regrets, maybe he was sorry that he could not buy it in large quantities.

Li Ying's family was in business, and several of his relatives were officials. One of them was in the capital two years ago, but he had never had a Jinshi among his close relatives.

The Li family's business is very big, unlike Zhang who only has a few hectares of fertile land. Therefore, Li Ying can spend a lot of money on the way to investigate things. According to Li Ying, he has spent 7,000 or 8,000 tillions on it in recent years.

The reason why the expenses like flowing water were not opposed by the family was supported entirely because of the two prime ministers of Su and Han. At the same time, I also hope that Li Ying could take this path and earn another official position for the Li family. After all, the competition between Song and Liao countries on steam engines in the past two years was indeed a thunderous thrill for the people who only knew that everything was inferior but had a high school education.

Li Ying said a lot later, but it was obvious that he was under a lot of pressure at home, but he couldn't find anyone to talk to. Only Zhang Hui, a new friend from another place, could he let go of his guard.

However, Zhang Hui's attention was all focused on the number seven or eight thousand guan at that time. God knows that Zhang Hui also wanted to install a three-meter-high barometer in front of his house, and then buy seven or eight clocks of various colors at home in one breath, use one, and dismantle one, and then every sunny night, he took a six-inch telescope to observe Jupiter's fourth satellite - as for why he only observed Io, not Io, just because he was happy.

Later, Zhang Ying finally realized that Li Ying, a child who could not bring benefits to the family, was under great pressure. As long as he was still a little attentive, his adult son would not be able to use the family’s money peacefully, but he could not bring any rewards. However, Li Ying might be a businessman and had a very outstanding talent in mathematics, but he knew nothing about business and didn’t like it at all. In the past, before he came into contact with the way of investigating things, he could only study hard according to the arrangements of his family in order to pass the imperial examination. Fortunately, he has achieved some achievements in Qi studies and has been recognized by his family. Don’t need to contact business activities that he doesn’t like.

However, this time, Li Ying did not show the greed of merchants when learning to provide specialty services for sale. It was not because he could not make money, but because he also knew some principles of human relations. ‘This is the face that various guilds learned for the sake of Mr. Han. If we don’t have shame, then we will be really shameless.’

According to what the chapter heard, this time the preferential treatment is the support of the various guilds to learn. However, the support is limited. That is, the quantity purchased can only be used as a gift, and once the quantity is too large to become a trafficking transaction, it will not work.

Zhang Hui did not intend to do business. As a part of the learning, he was unwilling to take advantage of the learning. He only planned to buy some of the things he wanted after the conference and took them back. As for going out shopping, it was completely outside his plan.

"How can this be the same?" Li Ying still refused Zhang Hui's rejection. "The things you learned are for you to take back and give away. The things you bought in Tokyo are for yourself. Zhang Jiu. Although your home is close to Tokyo, you don't come often. This is the first time you go to Beijing, so you have to take a good look. After you go back to your hometown, your family asked you, "How is Tokyo City?" You said it's very big. How is the Shuqiao? You said it's very long. How is it like opening a pagoda? It's very high. How is Fan Tower? It's very lively. Is that arguable?"

Li Ying seemed to have transformed himself into a storyteller, his mouth was frighteningly straightforward.

Zhang Hui sighed, and Li Ying finally looked like a businessman. He was a standard businessman in terms of eloquence and bargaining ability.

"Okay." Zhang Hui nodded helplessly, but added another condition, "It's only half a day."

………………………………………

From the Society Club to Tokyo, there are arranged public carriages and set off on time.

Zhang Hui, Li Ying, and Li Ying's companion, the three of them boarded the carriage and arrived all the way outside Nanxun Gate.

There were several other people on the carriage, either carrying copper badges or the staff at the society. When they arrived at the place, they got off the car and left.

Zhang Hui and the other two got off the car. The coachman sorted out the reins and had to get on the car and turn to the reservation location to pick up the return members.

"Wait a minute, wait, wait!"

A series of rushing screams, a man hurried over with a package.

After running over, he was panting and holding the shaft of the car with one hand: "Did you go to Xujiawa?"

The coachman nodded while looking at the man: "Which direction is he going?"

"That's good." The man was about to get into the car as soon as he picked up the package.

The coachman stopped him with one hand, "This car only takes guests from Mr. Han. Are you an official from the Natural Learning?"

Zhang Hui, Li Ying was right next to him, and before he could leave. Seeing their outfits, the man smiled cautiously, "Isn't it a lie?"

"Who dares to cheat Mr. Han?" The coachman rushed forward, "Are you an official who has learned it? You shouldn't just go there and wait."

He pointed to the stop sign not far away, and his voice was stern.

The man mumbled and left with the package.

"There are cars all over the ground, why didn't he take other cars and come over to squeeze this one?" Zhang Hui looked at the man and asked in confusion.

The man was walking towards the stop sign. After only a few steps, he had been called by several carriage drivers, but he ignored anyone.

"The officials don't know anything." The coachman turned his hand and pointed to the blue and white words on the carriage, "This is a public car." He pointed to other carriages parked on the side of the road, "That is a private rental car."

"There is a big difference?" Li Ying asked in confusion.

The coachman looked around, then approached and whispered, "The two officials should remember in the future that they only take public carriages under the station sign. The carriage among officials is the safest. Don't listen to those words that pull individual passengers, and be deceived carefully after getting on their car."

Zhang Hui was shocked, "All they are liars?"

Li Ying also asked, "How many can you cheat?"

"The lighter ones cost more than a hundred cents, and the heavier ones..." The coachman gestured on his neck with his hand. "Two days ago, a human body was found in Dongbalidian, and his clothes were stripped naked. Fortunately, he had a birthmark on his body. Kaifeng Mansion posted it on the wall of the eight characters and was recognized by people. He was originally coming to Beijing to seek refuge with relatives and friends, but he didn't expect to deceive him as soon as he arrived in the capital. Not to mention resigning, his life was gone."

"That's how it is." Zhang Hui shivered.

"Don't worry, if you are a scholar studying in Beijing, no one dares to think. The one who just looked like a businessman looked at him, so I would like to say a few words. If you were two officials who went to take a car, they would be honest and sent to the field, and at most they would collect a few cents of hard-earned money." The coachman sighed, "To be honest, the capital is much better than in the past. In the past, even the county lord was punished, and the son of the Privy House was abducted. In the present, the entire Kaifeng City could be turned over. Regardless of whether you do it or not, arrest it first. If you haven't committed this, there would be another thing in the past. If you really commit a big deal, the lower-ranking businesses are anxious than the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture. If you try your best, you should go early if you try your best, otherwise you can go to the world together."

"Yunnan?" Li Ying asked. He talked to the coachman and forgot to do serious business.

"Yunnan?" The coachman sneered twice, "That's good. The Western Regions are average, and the worst thing is to go to Lingnan."

Zhang Hui was puzzled and asked again, "Why is Lingnan worse than the Western Regions?"

"Don't look remote in the Western Regions. It is hot in summer and cold in winter, and the wind and sand are still strong. At least there are fewer diseases. Lingnan has too many diseases. If you are not accustomed to the local environment, you will not be treated by a good medical officer. You will lose too many lives in a few months. In the capital, those who sent to the Western Regions will be sent to the Western Regions. After the next year, most of them will have one or two letters back. I heard that someone is lucky. After seeing the merits in the battle formation, he was forgiven. He sent two blond-haired Hu girls to the spot. "The coachman tsk and said, "If you go to the farming area in Yunnan, you will be able to marry a barbarian in a few years. Most of them can send a letter back, but eight out of ten people will have no news."

"So that's how it is." Zhang Hui nodded.

But I saw the coachman suddenly stopped, "The two officials should go back first."

"What?"

The coachman looked back at the way he came, his eyes straightened, "Han Xianggong's car just passed."

"Prime Minister, I'm silent..." Li Ying shook his head and didn't believe it, but jumped into the car.

Zhang Hui's heart thrilled, and he jumped into the car, "Go back!"
