Chapter 1079: The bustle before the fair

Luo Tianwu personally sat in Xia Fang City, within three days, there were more than thirty caravans that came to hear the news, and the annual commercial fair, for the merchants of the Yanyang Continent, the temptation was too great, especially some merchants with strong capital, they were preparing for this exhibition all year round.

The war between the two countries made a year's preparation come to naught, and the losses were huge, and with the current situation of the Northern Xuan Empire, their goods could not be sold at all, so there was an example of the first batch of merchants, although the ban of the empire was violated, but the second and third batches of merchants arrived one after another.

This kind of business operation with profits of more than 100 percent can make these businessmen pay the price of death, in a word, Huo out.

Luo Tianwu did not stop it, and issued a pass order for each caravan, but as said before, each caravan must sign a guarantee to ensure that the caravan does not violate the safety and interests of the Shenlong Empire, if it is found that the caravan has hidden agents of the Northern Xuan Empire and the like, the entire caravan will be arrested.

So before leaving the North Entrance, the caravan needs to clean itself.

This is the opportunity given by Luo Tianwu, no matter how harsh it is, no one refuses, and in the war between the two countries, this reason is reasonable, as the leader of the caravan, he is very clear about the origin of the people in the caravan, in order to ensure the safety of the caravan, these people will be eliminated.

This also invisibly reduces the burden on the army.

Even the Beixuan Empire, which is in a state of war, operates so diligently, and there are many merchants, not to mention other empires, year after year, the profits brought from commercial fairs attract every merchant, even if the Northern War is fierce and there is a tragic destruction of the country, but for the merchants, they are all ignored.

What's more, the current Divine Dragon Empire is definitely the safest and most prosperous place in the entire Yanyang Continent.

A few years ago, the most prosperous city was Xiongcheng, but now Xiongcheng is full of holes, not to mention that these merchants, even the usual rich people, are sneaking around, either going to other places in the Beixuan Empire, or entering the household registration of the Shenlong Empire, they don't have much confidence in this battle, I want to know that Xiongcheng is the first to bear the brunt and has become the most dangerous.

The battle of Beixuan has entered the second stage, so the progress has slowed down, coupled with the snow falling in the north and the cold invading people, even Luo Tianwu does not dare to enter the army lightly, and the Beixuan Empire needs time, the army retreats, and it is necessary to reformulate the defense area and build more barriers, so for a while, both sides of the war have calmed down.

But this relative calm, once broken, is a river of blood, this, both sides have enough psychological preparation, Luo Tianwu and Qingyue discussed the big war plan after the beginning of the year, and in the palace of the Beixuan Empire, Beixuan Xiongxin and Xiao Chengxiang are also discussing the defensive plan, the army that can be mobilized in the north has been mobilized, and the rout of the first line of defense has reduced the depth space, which is greatly disadvantageous to the Beixuan Empire, so this second line of defense can not be defeated again, and the Shenlong Empire must pay a painful price, maintain the cities occupied by both sides, and confront each other for a long time, which is the best ending for the Beixuan Empire。

As for the recapture of the occupied city, as well as the recapture of the northern entrance, it is almost impossible now.

The battle between the two sides did not start, but the troops and horses were frequently moved, but they did not stop for a moment.

The caravan is coming, the displaced people are also coming, the people of the Northern Xuan Empire who can barely survive in the cold winter have fled to the border with their children and daughters, just looking for a way to survive, and the news from the shadow guard has caused a great sensation, so in recent times, the refugees of the Northern Xuan Empire who have gone south from the north have exceeded one million.

In this era, the population is the most demanded, Liu Qingshan, as the emperor, of course knows this, so he occupied the most grain-producing area in the southeast early in the morning, and after a few years of operation, the warehouse grain was piled up into a mountain, and there was grain in his hands, and the people did not panic.

A large amount of grain, transported by warships, arrived at the Canghe River, and then sent from the Canghe River to the North Xuanguan, so that millions of displaced people could survive in the cold winter, and after the beginning of spring, they could organize the reclamation of the wasteland, give seeds and utensils, and establish a major town in the barren north.

Most of these officials are graduates of the Imperial Academy, and in the future, they will also take root in the north and become an indispensable part of the Empire.

The strangest thing is that Bei Xuan's ambition did not stop these displaced people, one is that he has no ability to ensure that these displaced people live, once there is a change, it will cause an uncontrollable situation, this is not 10,000 or 20,000 people, it is millions of people, in order to raise military supplies, he used very cold-blooded means, so he did not dare to provoke the people to revolt, and the second is that he wants to use these displaced people to cause trouble for the Shenlong Empire.

It's just that he didn't expect that the wealth of the Shenlong Empire has long been fully prepared, and these two million displaced people can be regarded as a New Year's gift to the Shenlong Empire.

Dragon City, King Street.

There are three horizontal streets in Wang, the longest one is not more than a kilometer, but there are more than 1,000 shops, some shops are still rebuilt, after all, the restoration of the imperial palace presided over by Lianyunshan at the beginning, no one thought that it would cause today's glory, so the shops on Wang Street were all idle at the beginning, and the area was very large.

But when the business developed, the harem emperor and concubine brainstormed and expanded the financial resources, so most of the idle residences were changed into shops, where every inch of land is not an adjective, it is real, the store area is too large, and ordinary people really can't bear it, so the big stores have changed the small shops.

But these small shops, have been robbed like crazy, during the annual commercial fair, that is, when the store renewal, the renewal of more than 1,000 stores, is not an easy thing, because those core stores, the rent has risen year after year, with the increase in profits, who is not red, but because of this, the annual rent of the store contract, has also become the biggest thing in the imperial palace.

When the exhibition came, the harem was busy and dizzy, it used to be the jade god and Sifu personally presided, and now, the jade god gave this task to Huahua, which is not only to give Huahua a chance, but also to give many new palace concubines the opportunity, after all, if you want to show your talents, you have to really do it.

Sifu at this time, of course, is also hard, unlike the female guards in the inner palace, only responsible for the safety of the palace, as the leader of the shadow guard, in the already crowded Dragon City, and then millions of people poured in, it is necessary to ensure all the safety, the Imperial Palace Guards, the Dragon City Guards, hundreds of thousands of people are all on standby, this is the Imperial Palace, if something really happens, it will be quite serious.

The shadow and the two armies guarding the Dragon City are in harmony, communicating with each other, monitoring all the movements of the Dragon City.

After assigning tasks and making various arrangements, Sifusong took a breath of relief and walked into the North Palace.

With the jade god who sat on the garden rocking chair and looked at the picture scroll with a relaxed appearance, Sifu was really angry.

"Jade God, do you say that you are too much, I am so tired that I am about to lie down, are you still in the mood to read a book?" A cup of tea, a book, is a day, this kind of day is the life that the imperial concubine should live, it seems that the Jade God has understood the true meaning.

The jade god raised his head and looked sideways, looked at Sifu with a tired face, smiled lightly, put down the picture scroll in his hand, took a sip of tea gently, and loosened his waist, it seems that he has never been so relaxed, you must know that as the New Year approaches, as the lord of the harem, Beigong Niangniang, she has a lot of things.

But the jade god seems to be very relaxed?

"Sit down, I've got something to look for you. ”

Although the two are in the imperial palace, there are some differences in status, but it does not affect the relationship between the two, to be honest, even if it is Luo Tianwu, the Nangong Niangniang, and Yu Yan, the Xigong Niangniang, it cannot be compared with it, after all, the experience of the two, and the relationship between life and death with Liu Qingshan, is almost unshakable.

Sifu sat down, poured a sip of tea fiercely, and said: "I've just finished being busy, I want to see if there is anything I need help with, it seems that you are not busy at all, the old bus has been doing so many things, you have done everything, the business fair, but it is not trivial, you really gave power to Xiaoxiao, she can withstand it?"

Yes, although Xiaoxiao has a lot of experience, she has learned a lot of things as Jade God and Sifu have approached in recent years, but she is still young, so she is responsible for the exhibition of Tianda Wealth, Sifu is afraid that she will not be able to bear it, if something is bad, it will affect the income of the Imperial Palace.

Yushen shook his head and said: "A few years ago, we came over like this, we didn't understand anything, we didn't know anything, we didn't learn anything, you have to believe in Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao is a smart person, she encouraged so many people, rest assured, I have a lot of confidence in them." ”

"On the contrary, you, Sifu, are getting busier and busier now, and you don't even have time to serve your husband, but I heard that you haven't slept for a month. ”

"What can I do, I'm tired like a dog, I fall asleep as soon as I lie down, where can I still have the energy to wait for him, besides, there are so many people in the inner palace now, and there is no shortage of people waiting for me. ”

The jade god smiled bitterly and said: "You guys, you really don't have any heart at all, until now, why can't you figure it out, there were only a few of us before, so everything needs us to handle one by one, to deal with it, it's okay to be tired, but now there are more and more imperial concubines in the harem, you can let go and give them more opportunities, otherwise they don't know how to complain about you?"

"You, don't think you're smart, as if no one else can do it, it's always not easy to do it yourself, now that the empire is getting stronger and stronger, you can't finish things even if you're tired, it's better to share things up, not only give others a chance, but also maybe relax yourself, it's the right thing to spend more time with your husband. ”

"Two days ago, my husband gave me the truth, although the development of Shadow Wei is getting stronger and stronger, it is becoming more and more unsuitable for the current situation, so in the near future, he will re-establish a new force called Jinyiwei. ”

"Shadow Guard is outside, Jin Wei is inside, Sifu, you hand over Shadow Guard!"

Sifu's face changed drastically, and she shouted, "What, let me hand over the shadow guard, this -----"

Her face changed drastically, not because of the handover of power, but because she felt that men had begun to distrust her, after all, what happened some time ago was indeed very angry.

The jade god looked at Sifu and said, "You will be in charge of the Jinyi Guard in the future." ”
