The urgent need for wool in the Great Song Dynasty became a money-making thing for the party members, and compared with the perfect economic foundation of the Liao Dynasty, the Western Xia was more desperate in need of wealth.

Originally, for the Song Dynasty, the party was the only one who could exchange wealth from the Great Song Dynasty into a worthless waste, Li Yuanhao urgently needed money to replenish his army, needed money to meet his inner treasury, and needed money to fill the financial gap.

The trade in the field obviously did not satisfy him, but Da Song's need for wool gave him a huge opportunity.

There is still such a good thing in the world, wool is a worthless thing in the eyes of the party people, but I didn't expect the Song people to rush to it, not only bought a large number of them, but also gave a fairly high price, and could earn wealth from the hands of the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty, which is more difficult than ascending to the sky.

So Li Yuanhao saw a huge business opportunity and ordered to encourage the people of the party to raise goats or sheep.

First, it can grow wool, and second, mutton can still be eaten, right?

"The Yellow River is rich in all kinds of harms."

This is not groundless, the superior geographical environment has created the prosperity of the Hetao region, where agriculture and animal husbandry have been vigorously developed, and there are many sheep masses, many nobles and wealthy people of the party specialize in grazing sheep here, and the large amount of wool trade makes the money of the Great Song Dynasty flow into their pockets like flowing water.

Even Li Yuanhao couldn't help but step in and began to build the Huangzhuang Ranch here.

While everyone was rejoicing at all this prosperity, only Nori Hitoei felt deeply uneasy.

"Your Majesty, when did this start? Why doesn't the old minister know at all..."

Li Yuanhao showed a concerned and ashamed expression and said: "It's understandable that Father Shang doesn't know, it's really hard to create a text for my Great Xia during this time. This Song people are in urgent need of wool now, as a raw material for spinning, is there more place in this world than my Daxia wool? ”

"What do the Song people need wool spinning thread for?"

Li Yuanhao smiled slightly and explained to Yeli Renrong: "The Song people make clothes from wool spinning, which is soft and warm, the Song people sell sweaters, and I sell wool in Daxia, so the Song people can't do without my Daxia!" Even if their sweaters are worth a thousand dollars? After all, the wool is in the hands of my Great Xia. ”

Yeli Renrong's brows did not stretch, and they were still wrinkled together like Sichuan characters: "Could it be that the Great Song Emperor can't see this?" ”

Li Yuanhao smiled: "Of course he Zhao Zhen can see it, but what can he do?" Who let him take the lead in the Great Song Dynasty in the merchants, even if he wants to stop, he can't stop the trade of the Great Song Dynasty has become a general trend, even if he Zhao Zhen is difficult to stop. ”

Seeing that Li Yuanhao was so determined, Yeli Renrong slowly shook his head and said: "Your Majesty should understand your opponent, the Great Song Emperor is by no means a master who is willing to suffer, and often recovers more fruits when he gives benefits." More cunning than a fox on the steppe. ”

Li Yuanhao waved his hand and said: "Father Shang, rest assured, I have all the preparations, if he Zhao Zhen has any means, I will immediately issue an order to prohibit the sale of the wool of Great Xia to the Great Song Dynasty." ”

This is the only way to do it when the enemy's conspiracy is not discovered, Yeli Renrong nodded slightly, after all, the wool business has brought great wealth to Great Xia, but this money has made Yeli Renrong deeply uneasy.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Li Yuanhao secretly sighed that his father was really old, and he was even worried about this little thing, and said, "How is Father Shang's Daxia writing?" This is an important means for our party to get rid of the influence of the Han family, I have to take a good look! ”

At the mention of the Western Xia text, Yeli Renrong's heart was slightly excited, now there are few things that can make him so excited, this is his painstaking efforts, three years to complete, although there are only a total of more than 5,000 words, but the shape of the square strokes are redundant, but also borrowed from the Han writing method.

But Li Yuanhao was attracted by these complicated characters after seeing them, although they resemble Chinese characters, they have their own characteristics. Use dots, horizontal, vertical, apostrophe, squeeze, crutches, hooks and other group words, oblique pens are more, there is no vertical hook. There are fewer simple words, and compound words account for the vast majority.

These words made Li Yuanhao very satisfied: "Shangfu's words are comparable to Huaxia's Cangjie!" ”

Yeli Renrong hurriedly waved his hand and said: "How can the old minister be compared with Cangjie, but the old minister thinks that the prosperity of a king must have a generation of system. The mountains and rivers in the country, the mixed places of the Han and the Chinese, the brave and happy to hunt, the day to the soldiers and horses as the business, not the atmosphere of courtesy, music, poetry and books. However, if you follow its nature and teach the utilitarianism, because of its vulgarity and strict punishment, then the folk music will be wary, Xi is still strong, you can control China, control Rongyi, how can you be invincible! ”

Li Yuanhao laughed and high-fived: "Well said! This is also my idea, my father's method of replacing our party culture with Han culture does not work, it will only make my party a part of Han culture, the most aggressive thing of the Han people is not the sword, nor the crossbow, but their "Analects" and other subsets of scripture and history, our party also has the culture of the party, and it cannot be assimilated by the Han people! ”

Seeing that these words in front of him will be the top priority of the rise of the Western Xia, Li Yuanhao immediately asked Yeli Renrong to start teaching himself to read and write, and set these complicated words as the national book. Of course, in order to facilitate people to learn the Tangut script, Li Yuanhao also specially ordered the compilation of a dictionary.

This cultural independence allowed the Tangut to regain a strong national self-esteem, and also allowed the Tangut to completely get rid of the influence of Han culture on it.

Seeing Li Yuanhao's happy appearance, Yeli Renrong felt slightly bitter in his heart, his monarch always imagined things too beautiful, how much could Daxia change if he had his own words?

In Great Xia, no, all the areas related to the Central Plains Dynasty Han culture has been pervasive, no country can get rid of it, in the drizzle silently penetrated into all corners, not to mention the original party, even the Liao Dynasty, Jurchen, and even the Wa State far away from the sea have been affected, this is an undeniable fact.

But seeing Li Yuanhao's appearance, Yeli Renrong wanted to speak and stopped, now it is better not to hit the emperor's excitement, the wool in front of him is what Yeli Renrong is most worried about, he always feels that wool is as expensive as gold is not a good thing, especially for Daxia, a country with vast pastures.

At the same time, in the Shangjing Palace of the Liao Dynasty, the people who were as worried as Yeli Renrong were Xiao Tzuli, the empress dowager of the Great Liao, she didn't believe that the Great Song Dynasty would do such a stupid thing, and buying the wool of the Tangut people with a lot of money must have benefits that others didn't know, but she didn't know the reason.

Nowadays, wool has become synonymous with wealth, called the existence of rushing, but at this time, the Great Song Dynasty stipulated that no farmland and wasteland are allowed to be used as pasture unless any land has been used for livestock only, and once found, it will be punished as a felony!

After all, the people take food as the sky, and the country must ensure enough food to avoid famine.
