Chapter 23
In the end, Li Xuanji managed to get an extra [-]% share of this year's customs clearance supplies.

The so-called export quota refers to certain special materials that are prohibited from leaving the country, such as tea, salt and iron, which are prohibited from trading with grassland forces.

Although Yunzhou County has been attached to Da Song for nearly 50 years, due to the special geographical location of Yunzhou County, Da Song has a limited share of all special materials entering Yunzhou County.

The four major families, on the other hand, successfully won a large share of supplies by relying on their relationship with the main line, and thus monopolized the trade channels for related businesses in Yunzhou County.

However, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The more prohibited things are, the more people like to take risks and make high profits.

In addition to the materials used by Yunzhou County, which are licensed by the imperial court every year, there are always some families in the pass who want to earn more extra money. Originally, when Yunzhou County was not attached, they only needed to get through the customs.

But now, there is another Yunzhou County outside the customs, so they can only cooperate with the four major families who have taken root in Yunzhou County to earn these profits together.

The people in the pass are responsible for sending things out of the pass, while the four major families of Li, Chen, Wang, and Sun in Yunzhou County send their own trade supplies to the junction of Yunzhou County and the outer grassland and the Huawai herdsmen tribes on the grassland. Make transactions and earn huge profits from them that are dozens of times higher than those in the customs.

Among them, the ratio of two to one is divided into five.

And this year, the Li family will take an extra layer, which means that the other three families will have to bleed to make up for the shortfall.

And there is a lot of profit in it, and the profit of the first floor alone has already caused the other three companies to feel heartbroken.

After discussing the distribution of benefits, the atmosphere in this building finally became active.

In the interlacing of light and light, everyone was drunk, and when the banquet was over and the guests left, Yunkelou returned to calm again.

It was late at night, and the lights in the building were turned off one by one. Only on the fifth floor of Yunke Building, at the window sill railing, a tall and straight young man was quietly leaning on the wooden railing with a cup of tea, watching The gradually darkened silent street outside the building was thinking about something.

"Master, all the conversations on the third floor have been sorted out today, would you like to read it?"

In the room behind him, a slightly shrill voice of inquiry sounded.

The young man stood up slowly and put the tea cup in his hand aside, someone came up to take it over immediately.

Stretching comfortably, the boy's dark eyes with a glimmer of light flashed sleepiness, and he yawned lazily.

The boy waved his hand:

"Forget it, don't look at it, coming and going are just those nasty things, it's getting late, the king has to go back to bed first, you just put these in a safe place, and take them back when you need them." Come out and see them off."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Wang Huai'en should be respectful, and carefully handed over the record booklet in his hand to the boy on the side to take it down and put it away, and then immediately arranged the sedan chair.

Not long after, an unremarkable and ordinary sedan chair with curtains was picked up at the back door of Yunke Building and headed towards Yunwang Mansion...

"My lord, why bother you to come here in person for such a trivial matter. If you want this servant to tell you, you just wait in the mansion, and the people below will take care of the matter."

"Idle is idle, just come and watch them play monkey show for fun, no big deal.

Oh, right!

Wang Banban, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, are all the things that should be prepared in the mansion ready? "

"Don't worry, my lord, everything is ready."

"Where's the guard?"

"The New Year's rewards for the guards will be distributed this year. According to your previous instructions, the guards will take turns to rest from tomorrow. The salaries of the soldiers who take the initiative to be on duty during the New Year's Day should be doubled."

"Well, you did a good job, don't worry about your work."

"My lord has won the award. This is what slaves should do, but my lord, there is something..."

"Just say what you want to say, and let go of farts. When did your Wang Banban become such a mother-in-law?"

"Hey, that servant girl said, today, Li Junshou came to discuss and said that tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the prince just came this year. Do you want to hold a New Year's Eve banquet on New Year's Eve, and call the heads of Yunzhou County? Come to get together and wish the prince a new year?"

"A banquet? Is there a lot of money in the house?"

"Uh...a banquet should be..."

"That's my king's hard-earned money! Inform Li Yi, don't do it!
It can be done, and the Yunzhou County Sheriff's Office will pay for it!A group of ghosts and monsters who want to eat my king's food, want to fart! "

"Uh, my lord, after all, this is our first year..."

"Why don't you deduct it from your salary? Do you still have it for decades?"

"Uh... the prince is wise, these moths are not worthy of the prince's banquet!"

……

The sedan chair gradually moved away, and the street fell into complete silence.

……

Crackling!Crackling! ...

Early in the morning, the entire Yunzhou City was awakened by the sound of firecrackers resounding throughout the city.

Although Yunzhou County is a grassland county, most of the people in the county are herdsmen.

But there are also many Song people who come here to do business and emigrate.

In the early morning of New Year's Eve, the entire Yunzhou City, as long as it is an urban area where Song people live, deafening firecrackers sounded, and red silk and red lanterns were hung everywhere.

Stalls were set up one by one in the eastern and western cities, and all kinds of New Year's goods filled the entire street. People in Song Dynasty crowded the crowded streets to buy New Year's goods.

Children are running around on the street with rattle drums making a knocking sound, while the adults behind them are yelling from time to time not to run around, while haggling with various vendors to get their favorite New Year's goods. .

Compared with the past, today's Yunzhou City is the busiest day of the year. From morning to night, until the sun sets, the streets are considered quiet.

But at this time, every house and every house was lit up with tens of thousands of lights, and tempting aromas came out from each house, permeating the streets, and the whole Yunzhou City seemed to become an ocean of aromas, everywhere. All filled with mouth-watering fragrance.

On New Year's Eve, there is a reunion dinner, and fireworks are set off after the meal.

A series of New Year's procedures are proceeding in an orderly manner, no less than in Guannei.

In Prince Yun's Mansion, after the reunion dinner and giving out red envelopes for the New Year to all the servants, Zhao Jun shook off Wang Huai'en and came to a gazebo in the front yard, watching the servants in the mansion not far away playing and playing there, ready to put them fireworks.

Biu! Biu! Biu!boom!

The burning fireworks shot high into the sky with a scream, and exploded into bright fireworks all over the sky, causing everyone to exclaim.

Immediately, more fireworks were launched into the sky, and more beautiful fireworks exploded over the Yunwang Mansion.

The colorful fireworks were reflected in the pupils, and the corners of Zhao Jun's mouth slightly raised, looking at the familiar scenes before him, he murmured:

"Hometown, Happy New Year..."
