The Cham side is more reasonable.

They just occupied the royal city of Champa, and there were countless royal families and big nobles to the south of Champa, and they refused to accept it.

In order to protect the city and the port of Cham, there is only one option: fighting to the death.

After reading the letter, the four people present understood.

Also very understanding.

Why did you send the lamp back as a messenger? Because her skills are useless at the moment, the things she manages are all military and government-run, so she has nothing to manage.

The rest of the people, who are not qualified to be messengers if they are not qualified enough.

If the identity is enough, they will try their best to rush to the front line, and no one wants to delay their own military merit because of the delivery of letters to Lin'an.

Liu Guo laughed a few times, but his expression was down.

Liu Guo said: "Back then, Brother Tongfu said that the veteran is only loyal to Huai, and the only Wu Gong in Guanxi. The rest of the sons of the civil servants are all contemptible people who eat meat; The Praetorian Guards and others are all full of seafood. If the army had such a fighting spirit back then, how could there be difficulties in Jingkang. ”

Han Jiang added a sentence on the side: "It's Jingkang's shame." ”

"Yes, it's a shame."

Liu Guo was very sad, back then, the Song army had half of the South China Sea Army at this time, or Sancheng dared to fight, how could the Jin State attack Bianliang.

Han Jiang shook the letter: "I think, they still have some things that they haven't reported." I calculated that at least half of the cultivated land in the Red River Delta has not been allocated to households, and there is at least twice the amount of land that can be developed in excess of the original area, and these are also not allocated. ”

Liu Guo retorted: "Lord, so what. What is wrong with exchanging land for military merits. ”

Han Jiang said: "I mean, the South China Sea Legion has carried out the matter of the Qin Twenty-level Lord, and if you want to discuss it, this matter will have a big impact." My guess is that the stimulation of this military exploit is a bit big, and what we need to discuss is whether it will be too exciting, and whether the Lintao and Wancheng armies should have the same rules. ”

This is really negotiable.

Han An got up and bowed to the former Si Deng: "Please follow the old servant to the side courtyard on official business, and a resting place has been arranged." ”

"Wait a minute, there's one more thing."

"It's okay, sit down and talk slowly." Han Jiang is very kind.

"Tell the lord to know? Frankincense may increase in price. Because of the Fan Shang disposed of by the lord of Guangzhou? As far as we are concerned, there are five species of frankincense trees, similar but also different. Most of them are tens of thousands of miles away where Fanshang is located? A few in Tianzhu with the island of Ceylon? There is a small amount of introduction from the Cham but it is very poor. Right now, the South Sea Legion is fighting? It's not important in comparison, it's just that I'm very concerned about it in the original palace. ”

Han Jiang nodded in understanding.

Han An said again: "Please follow the old servant's side." ”

"Thank you."

Frankincense.

This is a spice that is absolutely indispensable for Da Song? Also an important medicinal herb? At present, there is an ingredient in frankincense in the wound medicine.

Han Jiang thought for a while and said: "There is a road called the Silk Road, and there is a trade route on the sea called the Maritime Silk Road. But beyond that, there were other trade routes, such as the Frankincense Road? Back in the days of the Roman Empire? The trade of the Red Sea is contested, there is a legend of the Great Cannibal, the legend of Sinbad, one is called a hero, in my opinion is one that cannot be defined by good or bad? For the adventurous, his home port is the heart of the Frankincense Route. ”

Liu Guo said: "What knowledge did I learn? Incense. Its main ingredients are one or two sandalwood, one or two frankincense, and two taels of agarwood. Add more than a dozen ingredients to mix. This incense comes from Yi'an Jushi. ”

Shi Dazu smiled at Liu Guo, obviously he knew where Liu Guo had learned this knowledge.

Liu Guo is not embarrassed? Instead, he said: "In other words, Zhao Mingcheng became the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple? A little money? Immediately spent a huge amount of money to buy dipterocarp for Yi'an Jushi. ”

Han Jiang said angrily: "If you want money, just say it." ”

Liu Guo shook his head: "Non-yes, non-yes?" The lord doesn't seem to have brought half a tael of incense back to the house, is this appropriate? ”

Han Jiang scolded again: "I have nothing to bring back any incense, do people guess?" ”

Liu Guo shook his head again: "Fei Ye, Fei Ye, the lord has copied so many merchants' homes in Guangzhou Mansion and didn't bring anything back, what do the people in Lin'an City think?" Is this still Hanfu? There must be a demon when things go wrong, so instead of letting them guess, it's better to bring some good things back generously. ”

"I support it." Shi Dazu approved of Liu Guo's words.

That's right, the Han family said that they want to be good people, but the family style can't be changed instantly.

Raided so many merchants' homes, but their sleeves were clean?

That's weird, isn't it?

Han Jiang slapped the table lightly: "Let's get down to business, organize the legal merchants of the Great Cannibal and our merchants to form a joint caravan, and allow the new nobles who have made meritorious contributions to the Champa and Jiaozhi to participate in the investment, this matter should be put on the agenda." ”

Shi Dazu opened his mouth and said: "Shaojun, according to the official records, frankincense is a forbidden goods, the year before last, the official record is that Mingzhou collected more than 4,700 catties, Lin'an collected 640 catties, and Guangzhou Prefecture collected more than 340,000 catties, and finally there were 350,000 catties. According to the Great Song Dynasty spice classification, frankincense is divided into thirteen grades, and the highest is the current price of one pound of incense. The lowest damp black tatami is only worth five hundred dollars. ”

After finishing speaking, Shi Dazu made a summary: "Generally speaking, what we need is medicine, not this profit, so it is the best policy to introduce a large number of seeds, please think twice." ”

Shi Dazu is right, the above medium grade is used as a spice, and the middle grade and below are used as medicine.

And the civilians bought the most inferior class, that is, the thirteenth-class wet black incense for medicine.

Liu Guo said: "This matter is postponed, it is not an urgent task at the moment, it only says that the South China Sea Army is fighting." In the past, the imperial court always restricted the powers of military attachés, for what needless to say. At present, the lord only said that the troops and horses of the headquarters can be mobilized within the scope of responsibility, but this scope of responsibility is not easy to subdivide at this time, and the military heart can be used. ”

"Yes." Han Jiang agrees with this statement.

Liu Guo picked up a pen and paper and quickly wrote down the incident, and then wrote Han Jiang's meaning.

This is a major matter to be discussed by the five major members of the military and the seven members of the civilian administration.

At present, the five major members of the military are Li Er, Wu Guang, Xin Qiji, Zhai Di, and Liu Rui. Originally, there should have been Yu Gong's writing, but Yu Gongzhu gave up his own rights and gave his own voting rights to his father-in-law, that is, the new one who joined the seven civil officials, and stayed up.

The other six people are, Zhao Fang, Ge Yi, Liu Guo, Qian Haohuan, Han Yanxuan and Zhao Xuexia.

In addition to these people, there are also three doctors, three craftsmen, three danshi, and other talents in the technical stream, who only participate in opinions within the scope of their own knowledge.
