Chapter 78: Yizhou City

    "Mianzhou?" Li Yin took out the map, which was prepared by Li Yin in Chang''an. It was a color drawing of the Tang Dynasty that he downloaded from the Inte and printed out. The ces marked on it were all ording to the state capital of the Tang Dynasty at that time. The situation came.


    Li Yin took out the map, and Cui Yingying also leaned over and nced at it. She had never seen such a miraculous thing that could gather all the mountains, rivers and rivers of Datang''s state capitals on a piece of paper. What position.


    In the administrative area of ??the Tang Dynasty, Mianzhou belonged to Jiannan Road, which is today''s Mianyang City in Sichuan Province, and it belongs to the same city as Yizhou, which is now Chengdu City. It is located in thend of Shu, which is the territory of the Sichuan in. The terrain here is t and suitable for horse-drawn carriages. If there is no ident, they will be able to reach Yizhou in at most three days.


    Cui Yingying found Mianzhou, and then found Yizhou. There is Zizhou in the middle of these two prefectures. After Zizhou is Yizhou City, looking at the distance between the two, Cui Yingying showed a smile, and finally it was almost here. After a long day of driving and horses, she really couldn''t take it anymore.


    After answering Li Yin''s words, Tong Meng stood in front of the table with some restraint. Although the post general belonged to the officials of the Tang Dynasty, it was just a consoling title given to them by the court to make them feel better psychologically. His previous status was nothing more than He is a wealthy businessman near this post station, and his status is very low.


    The post stations in the Tang Dynasty cost a lot. In order to ensure the normal operation of the post stations, the court thought of a way to designate local wealthy households to be responsible for the construction of post stations, and these wealthy households would make up for the losses. As time passed, some shrewd businessmen came up with a way. They took advantage of the convenience ofmunication between post houses to start trading. Meng is a smart man. After opening this inn, he specialized in running business for others. He also sold all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry in the inn. The people who came and went to the inn were officials and noble children, and they bought strange ones when they saw them. A few, the imperial court also turned a blind eye, after all, they did not dare to push these wealthy households into a hurry, if they quit, they would be in trouble.


    Li Min saw Tong Meng standing there, with a face as cramped as if he was in a hurry. He seemed to want to say something but dared not say it. His mouth was opening and closing, which made him feel ufortable. Say it? But it doesn''t matter!"


    ncing at Li Yin, Tong Meng gritted his teeth thinking about the current situation, and said, "His Royal Highness, to be honest, since I received the order from the imperial court, I have opened this inn, and it is my duty to contribute to the imperial court. It was done, but the post station cost a lot of money, and spent most of the Xiaguan''s family money on it. Although the Xiaguan used the station to do a little business, it was still not enough to make up for the deficit of the post station. If this continues, the Xiaguan can only leave Put on this official uniform!"


    Li Yan was a little strange, he didn''t understand why the station was pouring such bitterness on him, and he just waited for him to say the following.


    "Although your servant is in a difficult ce in Mianyang, thanks to the good news from this post station, he also knows His Highness''s reputation in Chang''an. He just wants to buy some goods from His Highness''s prosperous Tang Chamber of Commerce, and buy and sell at this post station to make up for it. If you are short, please make it up, Your Highness!" Tong Meng bowed.


    It turned out that Tongmeng’s purpose was this. After listening to his description, Li Min’s heart moved. This station is actually the country’s logistics system. Li Yin knows that this logistics is a sweet potato in the 21st century. I don’t know how many people are vying for this bowl of rice. However, in the current Tang Dynasty, these businessmen seem to avoid it. Li Yin understands that this is mainly because The reason for theck ofmunication between people in the Tang Dynasty is that the amount of goods transferred is not veryrge, but he is engaged in business, and logistics is a problem. The cost of hiring people to transfer goods is too high, but it is different if you use a post station, not only fast It is also safe and can greatly reduce unnecessary waste of cost. Besides, the main road in Guanzhong is still a direct route from Yizhou to Chang''an. It is more convenient, and my new products in Yizhou can also reach Chang''an quickly in the future, bringing me a lot of wealth.


    Thinking of this, Li Yin felt that it was necessary to establish a good rtionship with Tong Meng and buy his heart. He said: "Tong Yi will serve the imperial court, but now he is facing such a predicament. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, how can I just sit idly by?" , How about this, I will leave you a letter, you take the letter and go to the Shengtang Chamber of Commerce in Chang''an to find a man named Tong Nian, he will receive you and provide you with the goods of the chamber ofmerce."


    Tong Meng is now on the verge of desperation. When he met Li Yin, he risked his life. He did not expect to get Li Yin''s approval so smoothly. He is a lowly businessman, but how can he not be excited by the prince''s generous help? With trembling lips, he knelt down slowly in front of Li Yin, "Your Highness, your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by Tong Meng. If there is any envoy in the future, Tong Meng will not hesitate to do so."


    A soldier needs to be proficient in sword skills to survive, a general needs to be proficient inmand to win, a strategist needs to be proficient in tactics to assist the monarch, and for a leader, the only skill he needs is to use soldiers, generals and counselors for himself. And doing so is difficult, but also very simple.


    Aftering to the Tang Dynasty, Li Yin has been learning, learning how to use people, learning how to buy people''s hearts at the right time, Li Yin helped Tong Meng up with his own hands, "General Tongyi, please stand up, don''t say thanks,e and sit down!"


    "This..." Tong Meng stood awkwardly rubbing his hands, not daring to sit down, his eyes flicked back and forth on Li Yin and Cui Yingying.


    Li Yan nced at Cui Yingying, she gave her a nk look, and she smiled and said, "Please sit down with the post!"


    Tong Meng finally dared to sit down, but he pulled the stool far away from the table, and his buttocks just sat on the edge of the chair, sweating nervously.


    Thinking of the logistics system in the future, Li Yin still had a lot of questions he wanted to ask, so he asked Tong Meng a few more questions. It turned out that this post station is nominally owned by the imperial court, but the operation is purely a personal matter. They will be responsible for providing horses and fodder, and there is nopensation for the death of a horse. In addition to these official things, they also provide fodder, food and lodging to passing traders. , so it is called self-financing.


    Although it is personal, but the letter from the court was dyed, the officials were neglected, and the post generals had to be punished ording to thew.


    After listening to Tongmeng''s narration, Li Yin couldn''t help feeling a little sympathetic, and Cui Yingying also frowned. If it was what Tongmeng said, it would be better for one person to contract all the posthouses on this road, so that the cost would be much less rtively speaking. Efficiency will be much higher.


    Of course, this is just Li Yin''s preliminary idea, and I don''t know how it will be implemented.


    After dinner, everyone rested and prepared to go tomorrow. Yizhou is almost here, so let’s think about it slowly.
