Chapter 181 Business Classics

Xiao Siwen sat in the city of Nanjing, sending scouts to the south to reconnoiter to confirm the movement of the Zhou army, while trying his best to pacify the people. War is indeed a disaster for the people. However, after all, the Zhou army is a Han army, and the people of Yanyun are much better than the Khitans, and the contradictions between the two ethnic groups have been accumulated for a long time, and the people have faintly looked forward to the arrival of the Zhou army. Comparatively speaking, it takes more effort to appease the people.

And Jerod was busy. Of course, he was not interested in the common people of Nanjing, and he buried himself in the Khitan military camp. The people of Nanjing have been poor for a long time, and even if they have spare money, they don't dare to take it out to buy their luxury goods (after buying it, they will be robbed), but the Khitan army is different, this guy is stationed in Nanjing all the year round, and often does some businessless business, and there is still a lot of money left in hand.

Now Yelu's business has grown, and the variety of products sold is not limited to luxury goods such as gold and silver jewelry, but also food, clothing, and use. For the senior generals in the Khitan army, of course, they are dragging the thorns to personally public relations, but for the small soldiers in the army, they do not work hard to observe and make the adults do it themselves, and naturally there are subordinates who are responsible for sales.

In just two days, Yelu made a lot of money. At the same time, it also broadens the idea of pulling thorns. What's the idea? Meatballs and lion's head are meat, and this small fish and shrimp are also meat, as long as there are more small fish and small shrimp, it tastes more delicious than big fish and big meat. What's more, it was easy for the Khitan army to make money, so they didn't care much about spending money, and in one day, they earned 10,000 taels of silver. Tu Thorn was happy in his heart, and even his eyes changed when he looked at Tian Yu, this Chu country is really his own lucky general, before leaving, Tian Yu reminded himself to bring more spring palace paintings, sieves, sachets, fat powder and other things, which were actually very popular in the barracks. When these hiccups robbed, they would think of these things, just looking for rich things to rob. However, the big guys all have families, and they are out in the army, so they inevitably want to send some rare things to their families. These little things cost Qiu Ba a lot of money.

"Brother Tian, what a good way." Yelu looked at the booklet in his hand, the booklet was written on the names of some goods needed by the Khitan soldiers, this was when Tian Yu sent someone to the barracks to deliver the goods to the door, by the way, he asked people to sample the investigation, he praised it: "With this thing, next time we do business, we will be more profitable!" ”

"Hehe, Brother Drag, it's just a soldier under the rule of the South Courtyard, and a soldier from the North Courtyard?" Tian Yu said with a smile. Since Yelu Deguang obtained the sixteen states of Yanyun in Shannan, in order to facilitate management, two courts were set up, the south court managed the affairs of Shannan, and the north court managed the Khitan headquarters.

Yelu shook his head: "The soldiers of the Southern Courtyard are gathered together so that they can do their business. The soldiers of the Northern Courtyard belong to the various tribes, and this business must be done slowly. ”

Tian Yu smiled: "Brother Drag, you are too attractive." In normal times, the soldiers of the North Courtyard are indeed scattered, but now they are different, aren't they concentrated now? ”

"You... You mean... Yelu's eyes lit up, and after a while, his smile was a little stiff: "However, now that we are in a big war, will our such a big deal cause the dissatisfaction of General Tartlie?" And we can't get that many goods out. This... That's an army of more than 100,000? Oh, it's a loss, why didn't you let me keep all the goods, I knew that these things shouldn't be sold today. When our army comes, we will sell it, and then the price will not be able to rise? ”

"Hehe, Brother Thorn, the things you sold to the sergeants look exquisite, but they are actually very easy to make and worthless. Instead of buying it at a high price at one time, it is better to sell it at a low price and make your business famous, and when the army is dispersed after the war, isn't it easy for you to go to various tribes to do business? Tian Yu said with a smile.

"Yes, yes!" Jerod said, rubbing his hands together.

"The army is almost here, Brother Drag, what I asked you to keep, you didn't move. We've got to get ready. Hey, it's only 2 days to get here from Shangjing, how can it take five days for our army to arrive in Guihua Prefecture, aren't they right next to Shangjing? Tian Yu said in confusion.

"Why? We Khitan people graze for a living, how can we graze in Beijing. Besides, since Emperor Taizu came, he fought in the south and the north, expanding the land for thousands of miles, not to mention, and also captured many Xi people, Murowei, and Nuzhi clansmen, enriching the Khitan tribe. In order to facilitate control, several roads were set up, including Shangjing Road, Zhongjing Road, Nanjing Road, Tokyo Road, and Xijing Road, and two Jiedu envoys were placed to control more than one million people. It is said that the Khitan army is near Shangjing, but in fact there is moisture. When recruiting troops in Beijing, it is necessary to release wolf smoke signals, and at the same time send people to recruit soldiers with goldfish charms, which takes at least 7 or 8 days to come and go. General Tzu Lie was able to arrive within five days, or because he had already collected some of Mobei's troops in the early stage, otherwise he would have to wait! Jerod pouted. It seems that he is quite proud of the thousands of territories of the Khitan.

These words were firmly remembered by Tian Yu: according to the normal degree, it takes 8 days for the Khitan to gather an army. Of course, the most important reason why the Khitan is so fast is because this group of bastards basically does not bring grain and grass. The war along the way all relied on fighting the grass valley (in history, Yuan Hao of Western Xia played a scoundrel against the Khitan, and the Khitan Xingzong crusaded against Yuan Hao, and walked in the desert for a long time, but he didn't find anything to eat, so he was defeated). The best way to deal with the Khitans is to clear the wilderness, so that he has no food, no drink, and no landing.

Tian Yu asked again: "I see." The far west of your country is close to the west of the river. I don't know if there is news that Zhou Jun is in Hexi. ”

Yelu was stunned, his whole body and mind were not on political affairs, not to mention that he didn't know the news that Zhou Jun was in Hexi, and he didn't even know where Hexi was, and he didn't know where it was to the west of the river. It was also thanks to his cheekiness that he just smiled and said, "That place is too remote and desolate, and I have no interest in them at all." Otherwise, it would not have been the turn of the Zhou army in Hexiwei. ”

Tian Yu is such a shrewd person, seeing Yelu's piercing eyes flickering, he must not know it. So, he asked again: "Hey, I don't know where the enemy general is now, I hope he can succeed and help our army defeat the Zhou army!" ”

"That's right, Xiao Dilie took 1oooo people out on a trip, and he must have gained a lot. Ay... Our stuff is too small. Hey, this ... Every time I come to the Khitan from your country, there are too few sea ships. Well, I'm going to send someone to deliver a letter to the king of Xiangyin, asking him to find a way to go to the south and organize more fleets. Now this goods are in short supply! He said with a dissatisfied face: "By the way, you see that I build my own sea ship in Jinzhou, is it okay?" ”

Tian Yu smiled on his face, and he really chuckled in his heart. This Khitan people want to build sea ships, this... This is stepping on the red line of the Chu State. According to the request of the Great Emperor Ma Yun, the state of Chu should do everything in its power to maintain its superiority. The Khitan is strong in the cavalry, but the Chu State is strong in the water division. Within the scope of Tian Yu's cognition, this water master is equivalent to being invincible in the world. If the Khitans built a big ship, they would definitely be killed by Lin Renzhao, the governor of the navy, which would affect the relationship between the two countries. Tian Yu said casually: "The northerners are good at horses, and the southerners are good at boats." Brother Thorn, if you want to build a big ship, it is naturally feasible. It's just that from building a big ship to training sailors, the energy and time spent on this is quite long, and I am afraid that you can't wait. ”

It seems that Yelu Drag's Thorn is indeed just saying this casually, after Tian Yu's rebuttal, Yelu Drag's Thorn smiled and said, "Seeing that I can't earn money, I'm so anxious!" ”

Tian Yu also laughed, but in his heart he was thinking that in the recent period, there have been obviously more merchant ships going north from the Chu State, and it seems that His Majesty the Emperor has finally paid attention to his suggestion. It turned out that just when Ma Xicao was about to return to Jinling, Tian Yu realized that Ma Xixu had engaged in this commercial activity, which could bring huge profits to Dachu, anyway, the Khitans had stolen gold, silver and jewelry, and it was better to exchange them back to Chu than rot in the hands of the Khitans. In addition, as soon as this business is opened, it will inevitably form a chain of interests that are friendly to the Chu State, prompting the Khitan to make every effort to attack the pseudo-Zhou in the south.

The two talked and laughed, the clouds were light and light, and they didn't take the imminent war in their hearts. Just when the two of them were talking, a servant said at the door: "General, the left-behind lord has sent someone to invite you to the palace to discuss matters." ”

Yelu thorned in his heart and counted the days, today is only the fourth day, and at noon the day after tomorrow, Yelu Tart Lie will rush to Nanjing with his brigade. In that case, why did Xiao Siwen ask himself to discuss things now? Could it be that the Zhou army has already attacked the city.

Yelu was shocked in his heart, if he was afraid, it wouldn't be enough. But when I suddenly heard such news, I felt a little uneasy in my heart. He glanced at Tian Yu and said hesitantly: "Could it be that the Zhou army is coming." ”

Tian Yu smiled indifferently and said, "It's okay." What about 50,000 horses in the city of Nanjing? Even if the Zhou army attacked, it would always be no problem to hold on for a month and a half. Our army will be here the day after tomorrow! ”

Yelu was relieved, but when he arrived at Xiao Siwen's mansion, his heart suddenly felt empty: Xiao Dilie was actually wiped out. Xiao Dilie sent a lot of scouts out to reconnoiter the situation in Anci County, and when he rushed to Jin'an Town, there were still many scouts outside. Such a large army suddenly disappeared. You can't hide it at all. Besides, the Zhou army didn't seem to have any intention of hiding anything, and with the defeat of Xiao Dilie, the Zhou army sent a team of more than 1,000 people to march along with Anci. Officials in Anci County and other counties along the way either surrendered or fled, and now all south of Nanjing fell into the hands of the Zhou army
