After Yang Pu went to Zhongjing to see Zheyan Chong, he immediately went north to Huining. He hadn't been here for more than a year, and every time he came, he felt that Huining had changed, and this time it was especially different.

After years of expansion, Daikin has become more and more vast, and Huining, as the national capital, is becoming more and more prosperous day by day. However, if you look closely, you will see that the real economy of Hoerin has not actually developed. Why?

It turned out that the nobles of the Wanyan tribe had enough food and clothing to eat and be rich because of their plundering, so they no longer had the heart to engage in farming, business, and work. If the basic necessities of life (such as food) were scarce, the Jurchen rulers might have been forced to focus on agriculture and handicrafts, but the rise of southern Liaoning made this unnecessary. The economic network that was laid out around the Han Dynasty not only controlled the flow of rice from Liuqiu and even Nanyang, but also controlled the wheat and corn produced in the Liao River Valley. The small businessmen looked at the faces of the big businessmen and the big families, and the big businessmen and the big families looked at Yang Yingqi's faces. As soon as the little unicorn has any hints, several major families will immediately get involved and quickly affect the entire shopping mall. Yang Yingqi's hand is raised higher, and the grain in the reserve warehouse of the Han Department is poured out a little, and the price of grain in Dajin will be lower; Yang Yingqi's hand was lowered, the officials of the Han Ministry's spare warehouse became stingy, and the merchants hurried to hoard Juqi as soon as they heard the news, and the price of Dajin's grain would rise. The same goes for the prices of other important goods such as tea and salt.

Fortunately, Yang Yingqi has no intention of disrupting Daikin's economy in recent years, so Dajin's price fluctuations are quite flat, and the ruling class of Jinguo, which knows almost nothing about economic principles, does not perceive the horror of this latent control in this warm water environment!

Dajin's warriors plundered a great deal of wealth from the Liao campaign every year, but this wealth did not take root in Hoeryong, but soon turned into spices, salt, tea, porcelain, silk, cloth, and all sorts of luxuries. Of course, the food shortfall in Hoeryong, and even the weapons shortage, need to be made up with these goods.

In this situation, how can Hoeryong's agriculture develop? When Yang Pu arrived, he saw the increasingly barren acres of land - even the fertile fields of Han Village, which the nobles of Huining had taken from the Han tribe, were now overgrown with barren grass. Under the support of the rice valley in southern Liaoning, even the domestic slaves in the hinterland of Wanyan have become lazy.

Similarly, Hoeiyeong's handicraft industry did not progress or even regressed. Taking forging as an example, the Jurchen Wuchun Lianggong was originally very famous in the northern country, but it has not been able to catch up with the development of the Hanbu forging industry in recent years. The starting point of the forging industry in the Han Dynasty was not low, and the invention of gears and other materials, the use of hydraulic blowers, the reform of coking coal and other fuels, and the introduction of the sword forging method made the weapons manufacturing of the Han Department proud of the world in just ten years. Compared with the swords made in Liaokou, the products of Wuchun craftsmen are shabby and rustic. Since the Han Department and the Wanyan Department belonged to the same country, and Yang Yingqi intended to promote it, the circulation of weapons between Liaonan and Huining was not much hindered, and it was more convenient for the nobles of Huining to buy weapons from Han merchants than to order them from local craftsmen. In this case, how can the blacksmiths of Wuchun compete with the talents of the Han Department? Once the market was lost, the Jurchen blacksmiths not only lost the motivation to move forward, but even their survival became a problem, and many people were lured by Han merchants to go south in batches to find another way to make a living. However, due to the current supply of weapons, many Jurchens are not aware of the hidden crisis.

Yang Pu rode his horse on the streets of Huining, where commerce was quite developed. However, most of the people who sell things are merchants from the south, and even if there are some people with colored eyes, most of them are branches of the main store of Jinmen. Most of the buyers were Jurchen nobles, soldiers, and their families.

This time, when Yang Pu came, it was in the trough period of the market. What is a trough period? Every time Daikin returns from a victorious battle, a large amount of wealth will be gathered in Huininglai, and the business of the market is the best at that time! A few catties of salt can be exchanged for Su Dongpo's handwriting that flows into the Liao realm, a few catties of tea can be exchanged for Yelu Yanxi's gemstone ring, and some people even exchange one stone of rice for the jade pillow for the burial of the Empress Dowager Xuanxian of the Great Liao -- at that time, it was the peak of a carnival inside and outside the city. On the contrary, Daikin's army had not yet returned, and the market was in a depression at the trough of the Huining market.

"Lord Yang is here!"

Yan Qing told Wan Yan Hu, and Wan Yan Hu hurriedly asked the maid to pass on. She was not allowed to go out, but she did not strictly abide by this prohibition that she was extremely unconvinced, and she just did not go out of Han Village to make Wu Qimai angry.

"Princess, you have been wronged." Yang Pu saluted and said: "The seventh general has not returned to Jinmen yet, the general told you not to be too anxious, everything is considered in the long run." ”

After Yan Hu calmed down that day, he also regretted that he was too impulsive, and he was a little worried that his husband would complain that he was causing trouble, but when he heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart, and asked, "What else does the general say?" ”

Yang Pu said: "The general said, although the princess acted inappropriately this time, it was too unconvincing for the princess to judge like this. It's just that we live in the guest land, and we can't compete with them, and at the moment, the affairs of the Yanyun military state are at a critical juncture, so this matter is still sent for the time being, and we will talk about it later. ”

Wan Yanhu frowned and said, "That's it?" ”

Yang Pu said: "Of course it's not like that, but it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge." ”

Wan Yanhu is not a vexatious person, and he said, "Okay." Since he said so, let's bear with it a little longer. After a pause, he asked, "Just now you said that Ying Qi hasn't returned to Jinmen yet?" How did you go for so long this time? ”

Yang Pu said: "The rules of the Han Department are not in their positions, and they don't hear their secrets. Does the princess have to know? ”

Wan Yanhu scolded: "If you can't say it, you can't say it, what a bend!" I'm just worried about his safety. After all, going to sea is not fun. ”

Yang Pu said: "Don't worry, princess, there are four generals with you." ”

Wan Yanhu nodded, then didn't ask anymore, just sighed: "Although this is the hometown where I grew up, but after this incident, I am also annoyed here." I really don't want to stay here any longer! ”

Yang Pu took the opportunity to say: "In that case, princess, it's better to wait for the confinement period to pass, and then we will go back." ”

"Go back?" Wan Yanhu said gloomily: "It's not that I don't want to go back, it's just that I can't leave the queen mother." Now that I'm here, her old man swallows her anger like this, not to mention when I'm not there? Although I miss Jinmen, how can I rest assured that her old man is here alone? ”

Yang Pu asked, "Is the eldest queen still healthy?" Can you still stand the fatigue of the carriage and horses? ”

Wanyan Huqi said: "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" Well, her old age is fine, but I see that although her face is fine, I am afraid that it will be uncomfortable. ”

Yang Pu said: "Since this is the case, it is better to invite the queen to Jinmen together for the elderly!" First, the princess can support her mother, second, she can take care of a few sons and ladies nearby, and third, the three generations of grandmothers and grandchildren can gather together, isn't it the best of all three? What does the princess think? ”

Wan Yanhu was stunned when he heard it, and only after a while did he say: "It's good, but I'm afraid that the second uncle and the fourth uncle won't agree." ”

Yang Pu said: "We don't say that we are asking the queen to go down to retire, let's find a reason first, for example, to sweep the tomb of General Zongxiong." After arriving at Anpo, he complained of illness and transferred to Jinmen for 'recuperation'. When we arrive at Jinmen, what should we do, is it up to us to decide? ”

Wan Yanhu was overjoyed and said, "Good idea! Good idea! I said, this is Ying Qi's idea, right? ”

Yang Pu was stunned by Wan Yanhu's question, and finally said straightforwardly: "It was Chen Zhenghui Chen's idea." ”

"Oh, it's the Fujianese who came from Liuqiu." Wan Yanhu said: "Ying Qi's promotion of this person really makes sense." ”
