Chapter 1341: When I see the red eyes of gold and silver, why don’t I give you a ride?

As for what Shen Mo and Zhao Zhengqing said, as long as the Sihai Trading Company proposes to deliver it in silver notes, the Chengdu prefect Zhao Yukun will definitely accept it happily, which is another cleverness in Shen Mo's entire plan.

Because in the future, after the Great Jin Kingdom enters Shuzhong, it will definitely quickly take over the treasury of Chengdu Prefecture.

In this case, a large amount of cash is not only inconvenient to hide, but also makes Zhao Yukun unable to quietly lose his ink.

On the contrary, it is a silver note. Only the silver note can make Zhao Yukun eat a large piece of it silently without attracting anyone's attention!

Because assuming that Zhao Yukun intends to swallow one quarter of this ten million taels of silver, that is, two million and five million taels of silver. So how much is this silver?

One pound of the Southern Song Dynasty was 16 taels, about 625 grams.

In terms of conversion, if Zhao Yukun intends to greed for one quarter of it, it will be 97 tons in weight!

How do you let Zhao Yukun get lucky with such a big pile of silver? Where can you hide it?

However, if these silvers become silver notes, they are the size of a package that can be taken away with just holding it in your hand.

So Shen Mo predicted based on this point that as long as Sihai Trading Company is willing to pay the silver bill, Zhao Yukun will definitely agree to them with great joy!

Even Zhao Yukun could exchange all the 10 million taels for silver notes.

Of course, this prefect Zhao was to facilitate his greed for the sake of his own. But he did not expect that although this would make it convenient for him, Zhao Yukun, it also made it convenient for Shen Mo to steal another tax silver!

Because of this, Shen Mo asked Zhao Zhengqing of Sihai Trading Company to agree to Zhao Yukun to exchange all the silver for silver notes.

Because of this, after Shen Mo's Sihai Trading Company paid hundreds of silver notes that were destined to be stolen, it also added millions of cash income!

...

After that, Shen Mo immediately issued an order to ask Zhang Huan and An Jun to find a supervisor in Chengdu Prefecture.

According to Shen Mo's convention in doing things, he never trusted the enemy's personnel.

Although Zhao Yukun was very obedient and obedient in front of him today, Shen Mo still took necessary precautions against Zhao Yukun.

The supervisor Zhang Huan went to find today is one of these measures.

Although the identity of the supervisor is not high among the government offices in the city, the supervisory authority is responsible for reviewing all matters such as forwarding of documents and reporting upwards.

So in this case, Shen Mo activated another government official who was bribed by the old man Wufeng in the zodiac plan, and asked him to monitor the official documents of the prefect Zhao Yukun. In order to see that when Zhao Yukun was distracted, Shen Mo could discover it in time.

As for officials of the supervisor level, they naturally do not need to use tokens like the wolf master Jinpu Arrow to activate, and there is absolutely no need for people like Shen Mo to take action personally.

So he asked Zhang Huan to bring the token that he recognized with the supervisor - half a copper coin folded in half, and Shen Mo's letter to ask Zhang Huan to hand it to the supervisor.

As for An Jun, this kid was extremely alert. His mission was to secretly support Zhang Huan.

After these things were arranged, Shen Mo sat on the bamboo chair and thought about it.

If nothing unexpected happens, this time the action to guide Shuzhong should be able to be quickly activated.

So far, the order to collect taxes again in Shuzhong has been conveyed by the prefectures to various prefectures and counties.

At this time, when the people in Shu heard that they had finally paid the taxes they had to pay again. The situation in various places had begun to develop in an unstable direction.

After this incident continued to ferment, as the tax collectors urged taxes to become more and more cruel, they would definitely do things that the gods and people would resent to those people who refused to pay taxes (in fact, they could not pay them).

After that, the people who were charged twice a year in Shu will be burned by the flames of anger and the public will be resentful!

Then the entire Shuzhong Basin will quickly turn into a prairie fire.

So before this matter slowly fermented, Shen Mo had to wake up the officials of the Song Dynasty who had defected and surrendered to the enemy under the coercion and inducement of the old man Wufeng.

Just as Shen Mo was waiting for news about Zhang Huan and the others in Zhaojue Temple, Chengdu Prefecture had indeed started fundraising.

...

On that afternoon, a total of twelve well-known businesses in Chengdu Prefecture came to the government office of Chengdu Prefecture.

The location of this meeting determines the style of the content discussed. So when these businesses entered Chengdu Prefecture and were taken to the flower hall behind by the yamen runners, these people began to feel nervous.

The flower hall in Chengdu Prefecture is called "Glen Hall", and is a quiet and elegant courtyard.

The courtyard is surrounded by the Shuzhong style steep-top brick and tile houses, and the eaves on the four sides are very deep. A patio in the middle of the courtyard forms a separate world.

In the middle of the patio, new lotus ripples in the lotus tank, and several red and golden carp are floating in the green water.

In the courtyard, there are green bamboo bushes, strange flowers and plants competing for beauty. Several Xiangfei bamboo cages were hung on the bamboo slits, and the thrushes in the cage were crying in the soft voices among the bamboo leaves.

These merchants in Shu all brought servants holding clothes and bags, as well as the shopkeepers in their own homes. The twelve of them walked through the patio and were asked to sit in Glen Hall.

Their subordinates stood in the corridor with their heads down and stood in the courtyard into a row of human screens.

Usually, these merchants were invited by the prefect and went to the second hall to discuss matters.

Now that they have been taken to the flower hall, everyone knows that today's affairs are probably extraordinary. So everyone is secretly nervous, not knowing whether the meeting today is bad or good.

After everyone sat down, they saw the Chengdu magistrate Zhao Yukun walking out in the back hall with a majestic expression.

After he bowed to everyone and bowed in a circle, he immediately sat down in the main seat in the hall.

As soon as they saw the prefect so polite, the merchants stood up and saluted one after another. The dozen chairs in the room immediately made a scattered sound.

After everyone took their seats again, Zhao Yukun glanced at the top merchants in Chengdu.

He sighed slowly, and then expressed his purpose of summoning everyone.

What Zhao Yukun said was nothing more than that the tax silver escorted to Lin'an this time was robbed.

Therefore, before the end of this year, before the payment deadline arrives, it is impossible for the Shuzhong government to collect all the taxes and silver in less than a month.

Fortunately, the order to pay the tax has been issued, and now the private tax bank is urging to pay. It should be paid within two or three months.
