After the conversation in the dormitory, Wang San and Li Chao were obviously no longer so open-minded, and they were a little timid, and they would come to 'ask' Shi Bin as long as there was a slight impact. And Jia Ling and Sai Xishi no longer talk about anything with Shi Bin, and they are a little estranged. This made Shi Bin sigh that 'the height is not cold', but he missed the days when 'he had no clothes and worked with his son'.

However, Shi Bin understands that if he wants to talk about nothing, it will take a lot of time and effort, and Shi Bin is still thinking about how to enhance national strength instead of maintaining a good relationship of 'talking about nothing'.

Since this 'working boy' plan has always been in Shi Bin's heart, he asked about the household servant every once in a while. Within a month, the household servant reported that the number of Yuan people who came to Daxiang to work had risen from 50,000 to 60,000, and there was an upward trend. Some of these Yuan people have 'become' the people of Daxiang through friends or relatives.

I am happy that the number of Yuan people who come to work continues to increase, but I am not happy that those Yuan people who do not know the rules very well have become the subjects of their own dynasty, because it is easy to stir up various contradictions and lead to social problems.

It's just that you can't have both, if you accept the Yuan people to work, you have to accept the Yuan people to settle in Daxiang, Shi Bin understands that it can't be stopped, so he can only accept it slowly. In order to minimize the contradictions, Shi Bin issued a holy decree: Yuan people cannot live in Daxiang for a long time if they work in Daxiang for less than three years, otherwise they will never be allowed to work in Daxiang to make money.

As soon as this holy decree was made, the number of Yuan people who came to Daxiang to work and make money immediately decreased a lot, but the momentum was still growing slowly. Shi Bin is quite satisfied with this, because what he wants is this 'slow growth'.

Just when Shi Bin was happy about his 'wisdom', Wang San came and said that he had something important to see. Today's Wang San is much less timid, although he is still very neat and reassuring, but he has become fond of exaggerating the seriousness of things. Therefore, Shi Bin didn't believe that Wang San was really in trouble this time, so he planned to see him after reading the five pieces in his hand first.

However, after only reviewing two notes, Shi Bin was interrupted three times by Xu Feng, which made him very unhappy, but at the same time, he also felt that Wang San might really have something important to see. Therefore, he was not angry with Xu Feng, and ordered Xu Feng to bring Wang San to the imperial study.

I really wanted to know why Wang San risked being trained to see him so quickly, so Shi Bin opened his mouth and asked, "Wang San, you said you had something important to see me?" What's the matter? ”

"Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial, because the people of the Khitan, Jurchen and Tatar tribes have all sent people to Lin'an!" Wang San said anxiously.

"Why don't they go to Hala and Lin Lin'an?" Shi Bin immediately became nervous after listening to Wang San's words. This is really not a good thing, because Ali Buge did not inform them in advance of their arrival. It can be seen that they came secretly on the orders of their own chief.

The courtiers of one country secretly sent to meet the emperor of another country, this is a big crime, if this matter is leaked, Ali Buge will be furious, and there may be a big war between Yuan and Xiang.

But that's all for later, what to do now is to meet those messengers first, so Shi Bin immediately ordered Wang San to bring the three messengers to the imperial study, and told not to enter through the main palace gate, you must go to the wrong door, the more remote the better.

"Xu Feng, now that trouble is coming, what do you say?" Shi Bin sighed and said.

"Trouble? Your Majesty, Weichen thought that this trouble might also be an opportunity. Xu Feng still smiled optimistically.

This was expected by Shi Bin, because Xu Feng was the most capable of helping him relieve pressure and would speak the truth. "Tell me where the opportunity is. I don't want a war with Dayuan. ”

"Please rest assured, the minister thinks that the attitude of the envoys of these three parties may not be bad, and Brother Ali will question you at most, and he will never dare to start a war lightly." Xu Feng smiled again, "This opportunity is to take advantage of this to form a good tripartite team, promise some benefits, and tie them up." I'm sure they'll accept it. ”

"Are you sure they're not here to pick quarrels? After all, the population of these three parties is not much, and now there are fifty or sixty thousand, are these leaders willing to be tied up by a little petty profit? Shi Bin was a little unconvinced.

Shi Bin's worries, Xu Feng also agreed, but he even thought that even if the envoys of the Khitan, Jurchen and Tatar had a bad attitude, it was only a superficial effort, as long as they were punctured, and they would definitely not care about anything else when they got benefits. Even if you can't tie it, it's not too late to find another way to solve it.

After hearing this, Shi Bin immediately understood how to deal with the three of them, and began to wait for the messenger while drinking tea and resting. It didn't take long for the three of them to be brought in by Wang San, although the three of them were envoys, but their original identities were just a small pawn, and when they saw Shi Bin, the emperor, they still bowed.

"Did the three of you come here for the sake of your people coming to work in my Daxiang?"

"The Emperor of Daxiang is really wise, yes, the owner of the villain, the Khitan chief, wants to ask the emperor, do you feel that there is something wrong with this."

"This is also what my Jurchen leader meant, Daxiang hired my people without the consent of my chief, resulting in a large loss of our population, and the strength of our tribe was greatly weakened, which is really not good."

"Your Majesty, the Tatar Ministry does not dare to reprimand the Emperor of Daxiang, but I just ask you to give an explanation. After all, the population of our three ethnic groups is not large, and now there is an outflow of 50,000 or 60,000, which is really unacceptable. ”

The Khitan established the Great Liao State, and it was also strong for a while; The Jurchens were some distance from the Central Plains Dynasty, as the so-called 'mountain high emperor was far away', so the envoys of these two places were not so polite to Shi Bin. Tatar is next to Shi Bin's Daxiang and knows Shi Bin's power, so he speaks a lot more politely.

"I see, this is not considered by the emperor. I have a population of 10 million and a vast territory, and I thought that 50,000 or 60,000 people were just a drop in the bucket for Dayuan, but I forgot that you are a nomadic people, and the population is not large. Fifty or sixty thousand laborers is indeed a lot. Shi Bin stroked his beard, and then said in a fake manner, "Wang San, you are presiding over this matter, you explain it to the three of them." ”

Since Shi Bin wants to say it himself, of course Wang San must say it well, not only can he not lose the prestige of Daxiang, but also convince the three envoys and let the three leaders be willing to surrender.

"Three messengers, have you ever heard a saying that 'he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world'?" Wang San said with a smile.

"Of course, I know this, it's your famous saying. Although I am only a little learned, I also have a little knowledge of Confucianism, and I agree with this very much. The Khitan envoy said. The Tatar envoy also said that he understood the meaning and agreed with it. Only the Jurchens' reaction was a little slower, mainly because the Jurchen envoys were not knowledgeable enough to explain.

"Since you agree, do you think that those who come to work in my Daxiang are rich, is it good for you, or for us, or for all of us?"

"Naturally, it's good for everyone." The three envoys of the Khitan, the Jurchen and the Tatar said in unison.

As soon as they said this, the three of them found that they seemed to have fallen into Wang San's language trap, and Daxiang dragged the people of the three places to work, not to weaken them but to help them become rich and strong, and to do a win-win thing. Even if the three of them wanted to refute it now, it seemed that there was no good reason.

In the end, it was the Khitan envoy who was a little smarter, and he insisted that Daxiang hired too many Khitan people to work, which led to internal instability in the Khitan, so he did not lose the reason to express his dissatisfaction. Seeing that the Khitan envoys were like this, the Jurchen and Tatar envoys painted the scoop according to the gourd, and also used this reason to express their dissatisfaction.

Since he did not achieve the goal of tying the three parties with interests as told by Wang San, Shi Bin took over the conversation for fear of making a mistake and said: "Three messengers, since you don't want my Daxiang to hire your people, then I Daxiang will not hire them, and tomorrow I will issue an order to send them back and let them return to the grassland, so that your leaders can rest assured." ”

It wasn't like they were here to get all the people back, not to mention that these people didn't commit treason, the three of them just came to find out Shi Bin's intentions.

Therefore, as soon as Shi Bin's voice fell, the Khitan envoy immediately said: "The emperor has misunderstood, the three of us are not going to take away those who came to work, we just want to know the emperor's plans." After all, so many people have left their homeland, which is really unsettling. Besides, if our leader does not have a good reason, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain. ”

Since he just wanted a reason for the leaders of the three parties to explain to Ali Buge, Shi Bin smiled and said that there would definitely be a good reason. And the reason for this is to let the people under the rule of the three tribes live and work in peace and contentment, and then the tribe will be rich and strong. If the tribe is rich and strong, the country will be rich and strong, and all nations will be able to come to court.

When he said this, Shi Bin's smile was a little cunning. Because he believed that if the Khitan and Jurchen became rich and strong, they would never follow Ali Buge and rebel against independence. As for the Tatar Ministry, if it is rich and strong, it will compete with Ali Buge for power and profit, which will aggravate the internal contradictions of Dayuan.

Shi Bin's reason was of course sufficient, and the three envoys nodded their heads in agreement, but still said that the matter could not be publicized. On the one hand, Shi Bin promised not to make a statement, but on the other hand, he was thinking about whether such a 'salary draw from the bottom of the kettle' was a bit excessive. After getting distracted, Wang San coughed twice before he came back to his senses.

Because it felt that it might be too much, Shi Bin said: "I think that it is not suitable for so many people to come to work in Daxiang, and it is easy to be thought that I am poaching people by luring people. Brother Ali Buge asked, I guess your leader still can't answer. Why don't you tell me how many people you are willing to let come to Daxiang to work? ”

Who doesn't want to live a good life? If conditions permit, almost all the Khitans, Jurchens and Tatars are willing to come to the Jurchens to make money, and even belong to Daxiang. It's just that with Brother Ali here, it's almost impossible to come all over.

I feel that what Shi Bin said is very real, and I believe that Shi Bin is not intent on digging their corners. The three of them lowered their heads and discussed for a while and gave an answer: the Khitan originally had a large population and was willing to send 20,000 people over. Although the Jurchens had a small population, their living conditions were very difficult, so they were willing to let 15,000 people come over. The Tatar Ministry was relatively weak, and it was under the nose of Ali Buge, so he said that although he hoped to send 10,000, he could only let 5,000 people come over.

The figure of 40,000 is Shi Bin's favorite, because these people must be strong men, and if they can be subdued, it will be a great fortune. As long as it continues, this number will become more and more, and then the Khitan, Jurchen and Tatar will also be inseparable from Daxiang, and the entire northeast will be his Shi Bin's.

This trouble really turned into an opportunity in the end, and Shi Bin was very happy. He gave one hundred taels of silver to each of the three messengers, and gave five thousand taels of silver to one of their chiefs and fifty horses of Shu brocade as a sign of goodwill.
