Chapter 1241 Disaster Relief

The meaning of this sentence is that after serious self-reflection, I have judged myself to be right, so even in the face of thousands of obstacles, I must also move forward bravely.

This is also the "right way" that Sun Gu has always requested, and now Zhao Ji and Su You are looking at him, which means that we have found any reason now, if you dare to repent, old man, then it is no longer a solemn courtesy, but a cowardice.

Sun Gu was irritated by Zhao Ji and Su You's gaze: "What are you looking at me for?" I said before that I would send an envoy to question the situation in Xia, since I am in charge of the Great Song Dynasty, then I will naturally be a faction! ”

"Good!" Zhao Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief: "The third division withheld the annual coin given to the Xia people this year, and the privy councillor drew up the following reward for Di Yong, and the book ordered Shen Kuo, and Li Ji sent an envoy to Xia to ask him for the crime of unreasonable raising troops and killing in vain!" ”

Su You arched his hand and said: "There is another one, they must reply before June, otherwise the Great Song Dynasty will be regarded as the arrogance of the vassal state to the suzerain, and will reserve all the right to pursue it!" ”

In April, Renshen, the Imperial Chongzheng Hall was dismissed from the prisoners.

In May, Wu Shen, Feng Jin Cheng Ying was the Marquis of Chengxin, and Gongsun Pestle was the Marquis of Zhongzhi, and the temple was established in Jiangzhou.

Renzi, the honorific name of the Suiren clan was the first ancient Hua Xu Suiming to be transported to the Emperor of Qide God, built the fire god platform in Shangqiu, set up the Suihuang Temple, and worshiped it with Fuxi Nuwa, and set it as the "first ancestor of humanity".

The Liao Dynasty sent an envoy to Beijing, and the locusts in the south of the Liao State asked the Great Song Dynasty for food aid.

In fact, Hebei is also suffering from a locust plague, but the degree of damage can be said to be light compared to the Tokyo Road in Liaoguo.

Su Yuanzhen organized a large number of people to turn over the soil and catch locusts, and vigorously promoted pasture planting and captive animal husbandry in Hebei.

In the early days of the locust plague, the Hebei Road Transshipment Division issued an order that local governments should purchase three locusts and one bucket of rice at the price of three buckets of locusts and one bucket of rice, and the Sitong firm would purchase them uniformly.

The 400,000 stone of grain prepared by Su Oil in Hebei in advance came in handy, and the first crop of rice on Nanhai Road had already been ripe last month, and from the end of March, various maritime merchants began to transport grain in a steady stream.

In order to increase the volume, the Great Song Dynasty also used a steam ship for the first time on the canal!

The steamship is the leading pure power ship, the rear drags a long grain ship, every other boat, there need to be two workers responsible for the penny to adjust the direction, the whole fleet of a steamship, nine grain ships of 300 materials, the need for manpower is only one turbine shift, one helm, ten pennymen, the sum is eighteen people, but one can transport 900 tons, 18,000 stone grain!

With such an efficient transportation efficiency, the land of Hebei almost did not feel the disaster, and there was even room to help Liao.

Of course, aid cannot be in vain, and Liao initially planned to use next year's annual currency to pay for it, but it was vetoed by Su You's instigation.

Su You made a more "good" suggestion, asking Zhao Ji to tell the Liao envoy that he agreed to assist the Liao State, but he was not very trustworthy about the Liao people's disaster relief capabilities.

Because disaster relief is a systematic project in the Great Song Dynasty, it is not necessary to finish the delivery of grain, but also to consider the problem of distribution, the problem of food for the people in Liaodi, and the livelihood of the people in the coming year.

In addition to food, it should also include seeds, livestock seedlings, as well as a large number of medicines, doctors.

The Great Song Dynasty has been a little bit back over the years, but there is an advantage, that is, it has accumulated a lot of experience in disaster relief.

If the Liao State agrees, the Great Song Dynasty can not only provide basic rations for the people of the fraternal state, but also send a medical team, an agricultural team, a water conservancy team, a disaster relief expert team, and officials with rich experience in disaster relief to the Liao State to help the local officials affected by the disaster, save the people together, and rebuild the people's livelihood!

The words made Liao Envoy grateful, but it made the faces of everyone in the court change color.

What kind of brotherly state is just nice, you Su Mingrun really think that the Great Song Dynasty is the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves the suffering? !

Su You means, my Great Song is the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves suffering, what's the matter, do you dare to say it's not?

The envoys of the Liao Dynasty were very greedy, but they also had scruples, and then cautiously mentioned that they could not send Song Dynasty officials? In this way, it seems that my Liao Dynasty is too incompetent.

Zhao Ji also seriously considered this problem and put forward another plan, if the Liao State is afraid of these, then I will ask the Queen Mother and her old man to come forward, and in terms of personnel, in the name of the Royal Charity Federation, gather people, and then transfer competent people from the Heavenly Master's Mansion and Daxiangguo Temple.

In the name of charity and religious people, what do you think of the disaster relief in Liao?

If you agree, the Great Song Dynasty can promise to give the Liao Dynasty 50,000 stone of grain, 20,000 guan worth of various medicines, and agree to expand the scale of trade, adding 40,000 pieces of wood and 30,000 guan of northern medicinal materials to the existing trade agreement.

In a word, do you disagree?

……

Liaoguo, Baigou Pavilion.

Xue Zhong is now sitting in the main hall, with a simple face: "The aid that the Duke of Guo has won for your dynasty is roughly like this, in a word, do you agree?" ”

Yelu Shensi and Xiao Weixin glanced at each other, as if they both saw the bitterness in each other's eyes.

Governor Chen Yi howled and cried blood in His Majesty, there are two roads in the south of Great Liao, this year's great famine has become a foregone conclusion, and now it is thousands of miles away, and people will die as soon as May passes!

When they first arrived, the two were still ambitious to have a career, and Xiao Weixin engaged in those small means in Xiongzhou, the purpose of which was to establish power.

Although the two countries have entered the honeymoon period on the surface, in fact, various means have emerged one after another, Xiao Weixin regarded Song Liao's secret spy as a battlefield, and was ready to fight the old coffin on the opposite side.

suffered a small loss in the first round, but Xiao Weixin didn't care, he heard that the Song people deployed sharp firearms in the Daimyo of Bianjing, but they didn't dare to deploy them to the north of the Daimyo, because they were afraid of the prestige of the Liao Dynasty's secret agents.

It's okay now, people don't talk to you at all to cover up tricks, and throw out food and medicine money, do you want to? If you want to open the door obediently, please let me in!

Dou Shunqing received the plan conveyed by the Military Aircraft Department, and laughed so much that he was still smoking, afraid of losing his honor in front of the Liao people, so he simply sent Xue Zhong over to negotiate.

Xue Zhong looked sincere: "Even if you don't agree, it doesn't matter, Sitong, as a trading partner with a good relationship with the Liao Dynasty, even if the agreement is not successful, you will privately donate 1,000 yuan to the people of Liao." ”

"I heard that the people of the Liao Dynasty were suffering, I mobilized the guys of Hebei Road, Ludao, and Zhangzi Island, everyone squeezed out a little bit of their food and clothing money, a drop in the bucket, just a meaning, and I hope that the general manager and the queen must accept our hearts."

Yelu Shensi looked at the big fat man opposite, and was in a trance for a while, unable to tell whether this baby was gloating or genuinely sympathizing with the people.

The high-level means that it is best to get assistance from the Song people, but the personnel are not sensitive.

But is it possible?

Yelu Shensi gritted his teeth: "Xue envoy ......"

Xue Zhong hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't don't, I'm just a businessman, I don't have any title in the Great Song Dynasty, and a member of the Ministry of Rites is a foreigner who spends money to donate, just to make it easier to walk." ”

"The general manager can call me Manager Xue, Shopkeeper Xue, even if it is Brother Xue, the envoy has nothing to do with me, I am just a matchmaker."

Jerushen pondered a little, "What does my lord mean...... Can it be...... The Liao Dynasty only accepted part of your country's kindness, ah...... It is food, medicine and silk...... This person, can you not send it? ”

Xue Tong seemed to be surprised, as if he couldn't understand why the Liao people would refuse such kindness, and suddenly seemed to understand: "Ah, I know, you can't trust us, you can't trust Fu Guogong, right?" ”

Xiao Weixin interjected: "It is precisely because of Duke Fu Guo that the Song-Liao trade agreement was successfully implemented, and the silk banknotes are also his opinion, and we are very grateful." ”

"Now that I am asking for help, and Fu Guogong is actively promoting it, how can I say that I don't trust it."

"But the weather is already hot, it is too troublesome to trouble your country to organize manpower to help us, this year's Xijing Road and Nanjing Road are destined not to be too stable, in case your country's personnel are lost in our dynasty, we can't afford to bear this responsibility."

Xue Tong looked heartless: "That's up to you, alas, it's May now, and if it drags on, the people will really be helpless......"

Yelu pondered and said, "Brother Xue, can you be accommodating?" ”

Xue Tong said: "The official family has said that in the name of the Queen Mother, let the Royal Charity Federation come forward to convene people from the people, as well as people from the Great Xiangguo Temple and the Heavenly Master Dao to enter Liao, if so, can you accept it?" ”
