Huangzhou, Guangzhou, Shuzhou, Qizhou, and Shouzhou, these five states are the five tea-producing states in Huainan Road. However, after the Kaiyuan period, the tea drinking trend began to spread. Compared with the tea origin in the southwest, the tea production in the five states in Huainan is much lower, and the number of tea gardens is quite limited. Considering this actual situation, when establishing the Tea Induction Department, Du Shiyi naturally considered that in addition to these two different amounts of tea induction, he introduced long and short induced quotations, and gave Huainan tea merchants certain discounts in terms of distance and distance.

After all, compared to the southwest of Tubo, Hexi, tea planting in Huainan is just starting out, and what is needed is encouragement rather than destructive plunder. Even the price of tea-inducing tea is reduced by 40% compared to the southwest. When he announced the news in Huangzhou first, tea merchants rushed to tell us. Although the tea-inducing tea can't be sold to the Xi tribe and the Turks and other places, this long-distance transportation is not affordable by ordinary small vendors, and they value more the amount of the price they pay.

After arriving in Luzhou, Du Shiyi met an unexpected person at the gate when he went to the Luzhou Governor's Office, but it was Xian Yu Zhongtong. Perhaps because of the hard work of the journey, Xian Yu Zhongtong looked a little tired, but when he saw Du Shiyi, he was surprised and happy. After the ceremony, he said repeatedly: "After the matter between Hanzhou and Mianzhou, I went to Chengdu Dacha Instruction Office to report it. Because I learned that Ming Gong was heading south, I was planning to travel to Jiangnan. After thinking about it, I went out of Shu east. I didn't expect that I could meet Ming Gong in Luzhou so by chance."

Although Du Shiyi has stepped down as Chengdu Order, after all, he was in office for more than a year and a half, and Xian Yu Zhongtong's words of Ming Gong made him feel quite friendly. Although he didn't believe it very much when he met this so-called coincidence, he naturally would not point out the matter when he thought about the hard work of running thousands of miles. He nodded and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work in Zhongtong. Come back to the guesthouse to talk."

After learning that Du Shiyi had left Sichuan, Xian Yu Zhongtong immediately hired a ship from Yuzhou to go east along the Yangtze River. After turning land, he rushed forward without stopping. Because he had done his homework in advance and knew where to produce tea in the south of Jiangnan, Huainan, so hard work paid off, and finally made him catch up with Du Shiyi. Seeing Du Shiyi's warm tone at this moment, he was very happy. Thinking about his instructions to his younger brother Xian Yu Shuming before leaving, he felt a little more passionate and ambition in his heart.

"My third brother, although the Xianyu family in Yuyang is not an unknown genius, there have been almost no people who have been in history over the years. After all, it is because of the lack of foundation and not enough opportunities. Now, my talent and talent may be able to be titled in the imperial examination, but I have to make a big splash, but there are not enough people to support Li Shierlang, Mianzhou, who once presented poems to be praised by Shangshu Su, but the result is that he cannot send off his wife and find another opportunity. Now Du Shiyu is ordered to take charge of tea affairs. I do not seek to show his talent in Wenhua. As long as he makes me think that I am a diligent person, a recommendation can help me get a higher start. You study hard at home, wait for my brother to fight first, and open a path for you in the future."

The matter of Huainan Road has almost been completed, and Pei Ning is here, and in advance, he has mastered some available people through the foundation laid by Wang Rong in advance, and has obtained some useful characters, either recruiting or encircling them. The Huainan Road Tea Indication Division and the Tea Indication Branch of each state have almost been set up. Therefore, Du Shiyi is preparing to set out to be the base camp for tea production in later generations, which has almost dim tea native to the southwest - Jiangnan. Compared with Guangzhou, where the aristocratic families are sparse, there are many old Jiangzuo gentry entrenched there. Even in the court, these Wu gentry cannot compete with the Guanlong gentry and Shandong gentry, but it is not small in the local area.

Therefore, Xian Yu Zhongtong took the initiative to come to the door, and even though he knew he was utilitarian, he welcomed him. After returning to the guest house, he called Xian Yu Zhongtong into the house and spoke.

Xian Yu Zhongtong thought that only Pei Ning was staying at most, but he didn't expect that Chen Baoer still stood by and not said that he had two more young people who were quite strangers. One of them had a beautiful face and a handsome face, while the other had a slightly dark skin. He looked at him with a little curiosity. Almost in an instant, he guessed the bodies of the two.

He is not the only one who thinks that risks and opportunities in tea affairs coexist, and there will naturally be smart people.

"This is the son of Governor Lu of Yazhou, and this is the nephew of Yang Sima of Yazhou. Governor Lu and Yang Sima temporarily asked me to take care of them." Wang Rong had to follow along the way, so Du Shiyi naturally had to give a brief explanation to Xian Yu Zhongtong, and then raised his hand to signal them to sit down and talk, "Zhongtong, come and listen to the matter between Hanzhou and Mianzhou."

Although Yu Zhongtong had already drafted a detailed report on the specific matters and sent it to the Chengdu Tea Indicator Division, since Du Shiyi was uncertain, he knew that it was impossible to expect him to deliver it to Du Shiyi in time. He was prepared at this moment and immediately reported the progress of his trip to the two places in an orderly manner.

Since Mianzhou and Hanzhou were not within the scope of the original imperial edict of the Tea Indication Department of Jiannan Road, when he volunteered, he was ready to fight a protracted war. Sure enough, even though the governor Zhao of Mianzhou was still very difficult to deal with, and the governor Lu of Hanzhou was even more so. As a white-hearted man who had not yet achieved fame, he racked his brains and thoughts when he was both immigrants. At this moment, he felt a little exhausted by talking about the difficulties one by one. Especially when talking about one of the places where the tea merchants were once causing trouble in the tea market, he was even more scared.

"Fortunately, the envoy Zhao was moved by what I said in the end. The farmers worked hard for a year, but they barely fed up their stomachs. The merchants did not work for production, but they gained huge profits at the end of the year. The former lamented the heavy taxes and labor service, but the latter was angry that the tea was high, but the income was small. He did not hurt the farmers who escaped taxes and labor service. Although the imperial court had comforted the fields and households before, if there were any more escapees, they would definitely not tolerate them again and again, let alone such tea merchants..."

Du Shiyi listened to Xianyu Zhongtong's detailed report at every detail. In this era when the population was limited and the development of agriculture was far more important than the development of business, the difference between farmers and merchants was justified, and he had no intention of correcting it. Even if his unmarried wife came from the richest man's family. Therefore, he naturally expressed his appreciation for Xianyu Zhongtong's achievements that he had finally achieved, and then asked: "Next, I will go to the south of the Yangtze River. Can Zhongtong have any familiar relatives here?"

The Jiangzuo nobles included the original Wu family and the Jin family who followed the northern Haoyou who followed the Jin Dynasty. However, when the Northern Wei Dynasty rose, many Southern gentry fled over. When the Sui Dynasty unified the world and then the Tang Dynasty rose, the geniuses who moved south naturally moved their families back one after another. For example, the Nanlai Wu Pei, who belonged to Pei Ning, moved many times between the south and Beitou, and became famous again during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Although there are fewer children of the Pei family in Xiangyang now, there are still some Pei family members settled in the Jiangzuo area.

Xian Yu Zhongtong had already expected Du Shiyi to ask this question, so he immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The Xian Yu family has many branches, and because of his studies and official positions, they have been separated for a long time. Even if there are really children of Xian Yu family, I am not very familiar with each other, and I am afraid that I can't help Ming Gong much of it."

When Lu Cong saw Du Shiyi looking at him, he immediately shook his head into a rattle: "I have never been to Jiangnan. There are many children of the Lu family in Fanyang, but I have been with my grandfather in Yazhou for many years and I don't know many people."

Chen Baoer, who was born in a small village, naturally would not expect Du Shiyi. But when he looked at Wang Rong, the pretty gentleman smiled and said, "Du Shiyu forgot that there had been a pioneer in Shu County here? Changzhou, Huzhou, Hangzhou, Xuanzhou, Yuezhou, every state should have bought land and bought property. In addition, I remember that Du Shiyu Zhang joined the army in the same year, and came from the Zhang family in Xuancheng. He should pass by Xuancheng on this trip. Even if Xuanzhou does not produce tea, it would be better to visit him.

Du Shiyi couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "No need to remind me, how could I forget this big thing? However, Zhang Jian, the Zhang family of Xuancheng, who was born in Zhang Liulang, has never paid much attention to him. As for whether he sees him, I will discuss it in Xuancheng."

The three of the so-called four masters of Shu County all went to Jiangnan to buy fields and try to grow cotton because of Wang Rong's call for kapok. Even Tian Mo came here early as the matter as the planting technology supervisor. Even Pei Ning was not aware of it, let alone Xian Yu Zhongtong and Lu Cong who were confused. The former had a bit of dating with the Yang family, and was a little suspicious about Yang Xuanyan's nephew who came out of thin air; while the latter thought that he had reminded Pei Ning, but Du Shiyi and Yang Langjun still had a tacit understanding. He felt so uncomfortable.

So, when Du Shiyi hesitated, he only left Pei Ning and Wang Rong to discuss in the house. Chen Baoer recorded it. As soon as Lu Cong and Xian Yu Zhongtong came out, the former was stopped by the latter.

"Langjun Lu, this Yang Langjun is the nephew of Yang Sima in Yazhou. Do you know the origin?" When asked this, Xian Yu Zhongtong had some vague guesses in his heart.

"I don't know." Lu Cong said with a little hard heart. Seeing that Xian Yu Zhongtong was a little embarrassed, he knew that his attitude was indeed not very good, so he barely relaxed his face and said in a warning tone, "Anyway, that's the person Du Shiyu loves, please don't pay attention to it."

When Du Shiyi and his group arrived in Xuancheng, he and Xian Yu Zhongtong wrote a letter to him and ordered him to go to Runzhou, the courier he had sent before finally arrived in front of Yuwen Rong's mansion in Luoyang.

In a moment, the tightly sealed copper tube was sent to Yu Wenrong. As the emperor's trustee who is now the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the Chief Censor of the Censor, and the dozens of judges under his command, Yu Wenrong was already in eight places and a hundred promises. When he saw his subordinates in his study, he learned from his followers that this was the case. He immediately asked everyone to wait for a while and go out to pick up the letter first. However, after unfolding the roll of paper, he looked at the ten lines at a glance, and he suddenly became furious and threw the letter to the ground.
