One thousand and four Southern Song bureaucrats do not understand confidentiality
Because it mainly features mutton dishes, the Beiguo Building opened by Su Changsheng soon attracted the attention of Zhao Gou in the deep palace.
These days, it is definitely not a simple thing to focus on mutton dishes, because the import route is completely monopolized by Ming Dynasty. If you want to eat mutton, you need to trade with Ming Dynasty.
In order to send sheep from the grasslands to Jiangnan for sale, the price was not as high as usual. It was basically one of the flagship products exported by the Ming Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty. Therefore, the mutton dish became the absolute aristocratic dish of the Southern Song Dynasty, and ordinary rich people could not afford it.
The popular dishes replaced are mainly various types of river food and seafood.
However, Beiguolou is said to have a good relationship with Ming Dynasty merchants and can get high-quality live sheep. The mutton supply is guaranteed, and the taste is extremely delicious and has a very light smell, which is very consistent with the tastes of the powerful people in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Its main dish [Fresh Fish and Sheep] is said to be even fresh and can be bitten by diners, which is widely sought after by the powerful.
As soon as his reputation became famous, Zhao Gou, an old Kaifeng native, could not sit still. Zhao Gou sent someone to ask the chef from Beiguolou to come to the palace to make mutton dishes for him to eat.
Su Changsheng was overjoyed and immediately sent the best chef in the Northland Building to secretly visit the palace to make mutton for Zhao Gou to eat. Zhao Gou couldn't stop eating a top-quality fish and sheep. After eating, he had to walk with the help of the eunuch to eat.
Despite this, Zhao Gou still couldn't help but eat it at least five times a month. He had to cook it for him with the best ingredients and spices.
In this regard, Zhao Gou is never stingy. He is willing to pay more than 100 guan for this every time. When he is happy, he also rewards the chef with dozens of guan. It is equivalent to spending a lot of money.
Afterwards, Zhao Gou was happy and rewarded a bowl made of gold on the Beiguo Tower, which was placed by Su Changsheng at the highest place in the Beiguo Tower and existed as the [Treasure of the Town Tower].
Beiguolou became a hit and became the first choice for the powerful people in the Southern Song Dynasty to gather and have fun. He also had to eat mutton and even ordered the name to eat fish and sheep fresh. Not eating fish and sheep fresh is equivalent to not going to Beiguolou, which is equivalent to local buns.
So the business in Beiguolou was so good that it was so good that the dish of fish and sheep was directly limited. It was necessary to reserve it. You can't eat it without reservation...
What? You are a powerful person and you want to go through the back door?
Please, come here to eat fresh fish and sheep, which one is not a powerful person?
Only the Emperor and the old man who can walk through the back door! You, line up obediently!
Yes, who can compare his identity with Zhao Gou?
Su Changsheng made a lot of money in the Southern Song Dynasty with his increasingly prosperous chain catering business, and then used this money to grow the Second Operation Group of the Skynet Army, set up groups and groups in many prefectures, and gradually spread the intelligence network in the core areas of the Southern Song Dynasty.
Based on the principle of darkness under the light, the headquarters of the Second Operation Group of the Skynet Army was also brought into Lin'an City by Su Changsheng, and developed its own intelligence work under the noses of the Southern Song emperors.
I have to say that Su Changsheng's approach is very distinctive of Su Yonglin.
Relying on the special advantages of Beiguolou, he not only became the top powerful people of the Southern Song Dynasty, but also became familiar with them and became the number one figure, but also could easily know the current hot political topics and hot political trends in the Southern Song Dynasty.
In fact, it was not that he deliberately sent people to inquire about the news. It was because the bureaucrats of the Southern Song Dynasty had no sense of confidentiality. They should not say anything. As long as they had a few cups of yellow soup, they would all be vomited out for you.
I had just discussed things with the emperor in the morning. I came to Beiguolou in the evening and had a few glasses of wine. My face turned red. I couldn't tell the difference between the east, south, west and north, so I began to tell the things in the court.
The voice is very loud and the words are straight and straight, for fear that you won't hear it.
The guys who deliver food are all trained professionals, who pay attention to one's eyes and listen to all directions. As a result, when encountering such a wine party, there is no place to display its skills.
You can learn directly what the Southern Song Dynasty court wants to do, as well as the internal struggles and contents of the court, etc. without any effort.
Then about five days later, this information will appear on the desk of the commander's office of the Zhongdutian Net Army Headquarters.
After about half a day, some important news will appear on Su Yonglin's table and be known to him.
Not to mention some political issues and open political struggles that appeared in the court, such as who fought with whom in the court, even some minor frictions between Zhao Gou and Zhao Sheng were unhappy and had not returned to Lin'an for a long time, Su Yonglin had already known the news that Su Yonglin had long since returned to Lin'an.
One-way transparency means that.
Su Yonglin even knew that Zhao Xing had fallen in love with eating because she was depressed recently and liked to relieve her depression by overeating. In just two or three months, her originally thin figure had completely distorted and she became a typical middle-aged greasy man.
When he heard that Zhao Xing had become a middle-aged greasy man, Su Yonglin was so scared that he quickly customized fitness equipment from the Ministry of Works, preparing to squeeze out some time to exercise every day in the future to maintain his figure, so as to avoid distorted body shape and suffering from three highs.
Of course, as the experienced king of intelligence, Su Changsheng not only relies on restaurants to inquire about information, but also arranges his subordinates to enter various official offices in Lin'an City as traitors through some social connections to do odd jobs and collect information.
Only the officials and men can’t clean the sanitation, and the eunuchs only serve the royal family. The huge amount of chores in the Lin'an city still rely on hiring some professional chores to do the work.
These mailmen were the most likely to get in touch with important news from the Southern Song Dynasty except officials.
However, the Southern Song Dynasty court was not on guard against them at all.
The reason is very simple. Judging from the educational level of the Southern Song Dynasty, there is no possibility of literacy at all.
Even if the top intelligence related to national defense is placed in front of them, they thought it was written on it today's recipe.
What should I be wary of when it comes to lowly servants who don’t know a big word?
After Su Changsheng learned about these inside information, he arranged for some literate spies to pretend to be illiterate and go to the government to do odd jobs, and he got into many staffing that were not considered as the staffing.
And at present, these spies have successfully entered Lin'an Prefecture, the Six Ministry, the Privy Council and other official offices to do things, and often bring meaningful information to Su Changsheng to know, and then handed over to Su Yonglin to know.
Moreover, the Southern Song government has not noticed any leaks of information so far. It is still unclear whether there are any Ming spies in Lin'an City, how many Ming dynasties are there, and where they are.
Not only is their anti-espionage work very exciting, but at least it can be considered as none at all.
In contrast, the spies placed in Zhongdu City of the Southern Song Dynasty were all under the strict surveillance of the Skynet Army.
It’s not that they are not pretending, but in fact, these Southern Song spies are also somewhat professional and live well in Zhongdu City.
However, they did not have a deep understanding of the society of the Ming Dynasty and did not know the widely popular identity proof system in the Ming Dynasty, so it was impossible to enter Zhongdu City if they wanted to hide their identities. They could only enter Zhongdu City as merchants and followers of the Southern Song Dynasty, and were fully exposed from the beginning.
Moreover, the Ming government also passed the Confidentiality Act early at the request of Su Yonglin, strictly restricting officials from certain departments to inform irrelevant groups that they strictly restrict contact with the outside world for certain key departments, and completely disappeared from society.
Under such circumstances, the news found by the spies of the Southern Song Dynasty was basically the same as the old men and mothers chatting on the street. They talked about stories such as "White-Haired Girl" and "The Rooster Crowing in the Middle of the Night", and cursed the despicable and shameless superiors.
To be honest, with the security and confidentiality level of the Southern Song Dynasty, Su Yonglin felt that he could plan it by directly sending someone to the Southern Song court to give Zhao Sheng a strong medicine to make him the second Sun Yuanqi.
Lu You obviously didn't know all this, nor did he know that the Ming Dynasty's intelligence network was deployed in the Southern Song Dynasty, but Su Yonglin had a certain trust in him, so he decided to let him contact Su Changsheng and instructed Su Changsheng to protect Lu You secretly.
If someone wants to be unfavorable to him, then take action to protect him and send him and his family to Zhongdu safely.
Such an autonomously awakened former Southern Song official was of great significance to the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, the [passive enlightenment] landlords and gentry of Ming Dynasty also had important significance to the Southern Song Dynasty.
In late September of the fourth year of Hongwu, with the return of the Southern Song envoys, the situation of a large number of superior people spreading to the Southern Song Dynasty caused by the previous revolutionary wave sweeping across the Central Plains was gradually realized by the Southern Song government.
As thousands of gentry and men successfully crossed the artificial blockade and natural blockade and entered the Southern Song Dynasty, the government learned that the Southern Song rulers were ecstatic and thought they had discovered the loopholes in the rule of Ming Dynasty and discovered the evidence that the Ming Dynasty would soon be destroyed.
