Chapter 3246 Dealing with Dogs' Meat Buns

Sun Cong smiled, his back leaned heavily on the chair, and replied slyly: "I heard that you have begun to change the land and return to the river in Yunnan and divide the county into ...... The court, the meaning of the court is completely up to you, you should hurry up to the court. ”

Zhao Xing smiled innocently, looking like he was fighting for the country: "There are too many fetters on the border of Guangxi, but I don't plan to let Dali become a fetters from the beginning---- now, I have divided the Shanyan Mansion into two, and the northern part of Dali is also divided into four, and six states are set up, ready to take the entire Dali as a new road, I hope the imperial court can allow this road to be handled according to my ideas." ”

Sun Cong replied: "When I came, Mr. Zhang meant to divide Dali into a separate road, restore the ancient name of Xianglin, call it Xianglin Road, and be managed by Guangxi, this Dali and Guangdong are separated by a Guangxi, if the adults feel that it is inconvenient to meddle, the imperial court means to cancel the Guangnan West Road Transit Division, and merge it into the Liangguang Transit Division, but Guangxi must set up another jurisdiction, govern Guilin, and manage Guangxi soldiers and horses. ”

Zhao Xing clapped his hands: "It's exactly what I want!" ”

Sun Cong took the opportunity and said: "If people are willing to use a fast boat to transport the puppet king of Dali, then I still have time to go to the king of Dali to see, I don't know what the king of Dali is?" ”

Zhao Xing immediately agreed: "It's time to see, the capital of a country, the Yangtho Baa City (now the west of the ancient city of Dali) is very beautiful---- legend, the era of Renzong, the first year of Qingli, Duan Suzhen, the ninth king of Dali, intends to abdicate as a monk, and asks the intelligent Sun Duan Suxing if he is willing to succeed to the throne. Duan Suxing said: If Azu passes on the throne, he should let my land flourish and surpass the emperor Luoyang.

Sure enough, after Duan Suxing succeeded to the throne, he immediately built and expanded the east with the gold and silver of the East Treasury, climbed the embankment in the spring, and planted 24 yellow flowers at four o'clock. The name is Jinsuodi. And in Yunjin Bridge planted twenty-four products of four white flowers, the name of the silver shuttle embankment. Pi three springs and nine songs, imitating the orchid pavilion. Every spring, he took prostitutes and carried wine, men and women sat in columns, and they had fun day and night. One of the prostitutes was named Frangipani, which was very popular with Duan Suxing, so he named the white flowers on the embankment as Frangipani, which is the origin of Frangipani.

Unfortunately, it's not spring. In spring, the flowers in the city are in full bloom, and the city is full of fragrance, which is beautiful. ”

Sun Cong shook his head: "What's there, no matter how beautiful that city is, but it was also made by Duan Suzhen after me in Luoyang, can it have the beauty of Luoyang?" However, how come I haven't heard of Duan Suxing's name. During the Qingli period, Duan Lianyi, the king of Dali, had paid tribute to the imperial court, this Duan Suxing, I had never heard of it, is the king of Dali still Duan Lianyi? ”

Zhao Xing replied: "Speaking of which." In the ninth year of Xining (1076), Duan Lianyi, the king of Dali, sent an envoy to pay tribute to the Song court. But at that time, the powerful minister Gao Zhisheng had gradually seized all the power.

In the third year of Yuanfeng (1080), Yang Yizhen, a minister of Dali, staged a coup d'état, killed the country and became independent and self-reliant. Changed to Yuan De'an, called "Emperor Guang'an". Gao Zhisheng sent his son Gao Shengtai to lead the troops to rebel, punish Yang Yizhen, support Duan Lianyi's nephew Duan Shouhui, and serve himself as Buxie. Take the child Gao Shengtai as a good explanation. Since then, Gao's father has leaned towards the government and the opposition in Dali.

Duan Shouhui was afraid of the Gao family, and after only one year of reign, he became a monk. The Zen position was given to his younger brother, Duan Zhengming, the grandson of Duan Silian. In the first year of Shaosheng (1094), Gao Shengtai abolished Duan Zhengming and established himself as king. The deposed king Duan Zhengming Emperor is called Emperor Baoding, and he has a younger brother named Duan Zhengchun.

Last year (1096), Gao Shengtai died of illness. Due to the opposition of the Yunnan tribes, Gao Shengtai asked his deathbed to return Gao Taiming to the government of Duan, so Gao Taiming supported Duan Zhengming's younger brother Duan Zhengchun as the fifteenth Dali Emperor, but the authority of Dali is still in the hands of Gao, and people call this good Marquis the lord of GaoFirst-haired: ｃｏｍ||

Duan Zheng Chun'er Duan Heyu (that is, Duan Yu in "Tianlong Babu") is one year old this year and is also in the captive pile. (In Jin Yong's "Dragon Babu.") Gao Shengtai and Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun are like good brothers. Loyal, can show the sun and the moon. And Duan Zhengming, the emperor of Baoding, passed the throne to Duan Yu, but Gao Shengtai and Duan Zhengchun did not become emperors. ）

Duan Zhengchun only ascended to the throne last year. However, Dali's powerful ministers controlled the country's politics, the domestic turmoil, coupled with the continuous religious conflicts, everyone in Dali had no intention of fighting, so I picked up a bargain...... You see, Duan Lianyi, the king of Dali, was killed, and Dali did not mourn; Duan Zhengchun, the king of Dali, was reinstated and did not report to my Great Song, and my Great Song completely lost control of this Tibetan family...... I think these reasons for the invasion are enough, and let the rest be made up by the ministers, who can't think of a reason for us to destroy Dali, so they read the sages in vain. ”

Sun Cong asked dumbly: "The successor to the throne in the first year of Qingli was Duan Suzhen, the ninth king, and now it is the fifteenth generation?" The change of the throne in Dali is really fast, where did Duan Suxing, who likes to travel with his tricks, go? ”

Duan Suxing is keen on city construction, so he naturally has no interest in state affairs. Therefore, in less than three years, he was asked by the ministers to step down and give way to Duan Silian. And Duan Suxing received the edict from the new emperor asking him to go to the throne to be a good marquis, and he said happily: Amitabha, how rare it is to be an emperor, listen to the minister's performance and cut his ears. Now I live in Shanxi, where I built, and my status is no different from that of the emperor. Look at my flowers, do my fun. How I have fun in the future, Duan Silian can't control it.

After Duan Silian, Gao Zhisheng has risen, and the city built by Duan Su has cheapened this powerful minister...... Since then, the kings of Dali have changed frequently, and several kings have often become monks, and as a result, Gao Shengtai has usurped the throne......"

Sun Cong listened to Zhao Xing's narration of the modern history of Dali with interest, and said with great interest: "I should really go to the royal capital of Dali to see, but before that, I still want to meet Wang Ying, Dong Bi, Wen Xun, and the virtuous brothers, I see them, it's no big deal?" ”

Zhao Xing waved his hand with a smile and beckoned to the servant: "Come, serve Erchen soup." ”

"Don't, Brother Liren, although the business is over, but we haven't said a few words yet, why did you start serving soup and sending guests......"

Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "Teacher Tan Dang ---- taught me to abide by the rules, I am the most rule-abiding person, such as the situation of King Dali, didn't I stop them from reporting, I have nothing to hide from the imperial court, Brother Sun wants to go, just go." ”

Sun Cong smiled: "Come on, Zhao Liren." Don't pretend in front of me, such as your artillery, such as the Guangdong Firearms Bureau where you make guns, you didn't report these to the imperial court, it was I who suppressed these reports for you in the Ministry of Staff, so I came this time, you can't treat me badly---- I heard that there are a lot of real wax goods in Guangdong, Tianzhu goods, which are shipped to the capital and sold very hot. For ships carrying loot to the capital, you have to reserve half of the space for me. I'll bring some private goods back by the way, so as to subsidize the family. ”

Zhao Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "I have been in Guangzhou for four years, and the small boats in Guangdong have basically been eliminated, and now the smallest fast sailing ship is used to run along the coast, and each ship is about 200 materials, and according to our calculation method here, it can carry 100 tons of cargo." And the largest ship, a shipload of cargo can carry 500 tons, do you really want to load half a shipload of cargo? That's a hundred tons, these goods are loaded in horse-drawn carts, you can fit 2,000 horse-drawn carts, do you have so much money to buy goods? ”

Sun Cong grinned and smiled scoundrelly: "Qiongzhou Zhizhou Zhou Feng and Changhua Military Festival make Bai Shu ----"

Zhao Xing smiled but didn't answer, Sun Cong dragged out his voice, and saw that Zhao Xing was always confident, and smiled. **.com starter** replied: "These two people once reported that you had built a wharf in Qiongzhou and cultivated troops to raise troops, and this report was handed to Fujian, and the report said that you had no less than 500 merchant ships under your name. Now that this report has been suppressed by me, what else does Lord Zhao have to say? ”

Zhao Xing shrugged. Snorted: "You think, I don't allow it, they can deliver the letter." Ha, is this letter still a reminder from the Privy Council? That's when they reminded you, and you noticed, didn't you? I heard that you took this letter home, why don't you go home and look through it to see if it's still there? ”

Sun Cong's spine was cold, and he snorted, "Could it be ...... Lord Zhao. Privately reclaimed. Raising an army is a big taboo. I was also in a cold sweat when I saw it, but I thought that the southern soldiers were unbearable, and the navy couldn't get on land after all, so I hid it for you, you won't ......"

Zhao Xing laughed: "Do you think I will rebel?" Do you think I'm plotting a rebellion? ”

Sun Cong shook his head: "In the remote area of Guangdong, you can gather at most twenty or thirty thousand troops...... In the past, Liu Bangju was the king of Hanzhong, and he had to burn down the plank road, and as soon as you arrived in Guangdong, he wantonly built roads leading to neighboring states and counties...... I was afraid that Qiongzhou would be troubled and provoked attacks from the DPRK, so I hid it for you. ”

Zhao Xing nodded: "It's still Zhang Xianggong who knows me." Originally, when I developed Qiongzhou, there was also a taboo, that is, the farm used a large number of Kunlun slaves, which violated the Heavenly Sacred Order. In addition, the wharf is also jointly managed by merchants from many countries, which violates the imperial court's regulations on the control of merchants, so I don't want to say it, and I plan to slowly pass the message to the imperial court, and then reveal the secret. After all, the income in Qiongzhou is not high now, even if it is taxed, it will not be much, and when the wharf is built, the tax will go up, and then say to the imperial court, it is also an income.

However, Dong Bi went to Hainan, and several officials were startled, they were suspicious and did not dare to complain to Guangdong, so I simply delivered their letter to Fujian, so as to avoid an uproar in Guangdong.

I just want them to see that this matter was originally a trivial matter that was not taken for granted---- how many manpower can Qiongzhou have? How many consumer markets can there be for goods, I just circled a piece of land there, planted some food, planted some sugar and sold it for takeaway, in that place, can a few birdmen also set off a rebellion? ”

Sun Cong patted his chest and added: "What do you mean, if I don't withhold that document, a little official will also withhold the document, and if the court doesn't approve it, after a long time, it will also cold their heart, right?"

…… I see, let me tell you, didn't you just ask me how much money I had and if I could buy half a shipload? I didn't plan to pay a single penny, I helped you so much, you should give it to me. ”

Zhao Xing replied fiercely: "Of course, I originally knew that you didn't plan to pay money this time, by the way, I also used the list of staff divisions you gave me, and we are now grasshoppers on the same line, and if you poke out my secret, you won't be able to end up well." ”

Sun Cong licked his face and replied: "Of course, speaking of which, the ministers of the court treat you unfairly, you are in Mizhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Huanqing, every place to benefit one party, the court will demote you to Lingnan, and let you send the child to the state prison, which is obviously suspicious of you, and I also feel contemptible."

You are right not to send the child, and when the child arrives, it will be difficult for you to do whatever you want like today. I'm an old friend of yours. I can help you on the ground, of course I have to help you, of course I know that you don't have the intention of rebelling, you just don't want to be too restrained, what I can do now is to make you less noticed, I have tried to help you......"

When Sun Cong spoke, Zhao Xing's memory had jumped elsewhere, and he seemed to remember that when the Jurchens were rising, the Great Song Dynasty did not know anything about the situation of the Jurchens, and he had to rely on the introduction of a traitorous Liao businessman. Only then can we know that there was a big war in Liaojin. On the Western Xia side, the staff department did not do enough, and those merchants would have become the best spies, because for merchants, it was necessary to know the local market conditions...... Unfortunately, this has clearly been overlooked by the Staff Division.

From Sun Cong's words just now, Zhao Xing can know that the Great Song Dynasty is also blind to the country of Dali. Approximately those officials still did not interest in the intelligence value of the merchants.

Contrary to state institutions, the Zhaoxingdi warehouse has penetrated deep into the capital and Shaanxi along the Yangtze River and canals, and to the north into the Liao and Jurchen tribes.

It seems that it is time to change the brains of the officials of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Xing raised a finger and said: "Just now you mentioned why I didn't make a personal request, I will make a personal request now: Our Great Song Dynasty prohibits individuals from coming forward to run a newspaper, and you also know that there is a movable type printing workshop under the name of my concubine Liao Xiaoxiao. I want to allow the imperial court to make a special exception, even in the name of the Guangzhou government, to allow me to run a newspaper, which is called Overseas Customs, how about it? with this newspaper. I publish some information about foreign business to businessmen to make it easier for them to do business. ”

Sun Cong took care of everything: "I just said, Zhang Xianggong has agreed." As long as it doesn't involve demotion to an official, anything is promised. In the name of the Guangzhou government to run a newspaper, the best, although the imperial court prohibits individuals, but it happens not to prohibit the official government, as long as it does not affect the imperial court taxes, the imperial court expenditure is not too much, I can agree for you. ”

"There is no need for the imperial court to pay a copper plate", Zhao Xing hurriedly explained: "From beginning to end, there is no need for the imperial court to pay a copper plate. Run a newspaper. That's a huge profit. It doesn't matter what the name of the money-making real estate industry asks the court to pay for ----, as long as the court allows it. ”

Chinese practice is: Breaking the rules for reason is not a crime, it is for the country and the people. Zhao Xing had a lot of reasons in his stomach, Sun Cong made a statement on behalf of the imperial court, so what other concerns did he have---- "Maritime News, I plan to give this newspaper this name." The newspaper is published every 10 days, and in addition to official information, it also publishes some overseas anecdotes, including strange food, animals, commodity quotes, and advertisements......"

Zhao Xing's mind was full of ideas, and he was ready to introduce the typesetting skills of modern newspapers into it, so that newspapers would become a popular way for the people to disseminate them......

He was in a reverie there, but he didn't hear Sun Cong's shout, Sun Cong shouted a few times, and he came to his senses and asked, "What?" What did you just ask me? ”

Sun Cong glared at him hatefully, and continued to ask: "You just mentioned overseas anecdotes, but it reminds me of a question, how did you defeat the Dali elephant soldiers?" I heard that when Di Qing attacked Jiaozhi, he met the elephant soldiers of Jiaozhi and returned defeated, the legend is that the elephant was afraid of mice, Di Qing later asked the soldiers to catch many mice, so he scared the elephant away.

People say that Dali is a miasma land, Di Qing originally commanded an army of 200,000, and it took several years to attack the five northern provinces of Jiaozhi, how did you destroy the entire Dali with an invasion army, and now the people in the capital are rumoring that Zhang Li is the reincarnation of Wuqu Xing, so that the great magic power scared away the Dali elephant soldiers, do you also use mice? ”

Zhao Xing rolled on the ground with a smile: "Elephants are afraid of mice, have you ever seen a dog that is afraid of meat buns?" ”

Sun Cong asked in surprise: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Zhao Xing smiled and his stomach hurt, he finally calmed down his smile, and said breathlessly: "The elephant is omnivorous, which means that it eats both grass and meat, and the mouse is the most delicious pastry for it, and when it sees the mouse, it is like a hungry beggar sees the pig's trotters, and after a few days of hunger, the dog sees the meat bun--- and when one day the dog begins to be afraid of the meat bun, maybe the elephant will be afraid of the mouse."

You don't know, when the elephant is walking, it finds a mouse hole in the field, and it often sucks the hole with the trunk of the elephant and sucks the mouse out of the hole, if you see several elephants stamping around together, it means that they are catching the mouse, they stomp the mouse in the hole, and when the mouse moves, the elephant will suck out the mouse with its nose and bring it to the mouth to chew.

It's ridiculous, there are people who say that rats can defeat elephants, just like steamed buns can defeat hungry ghosts, and meat buns can defeat dogs, isn't this ridiculous?! ”

Sun Cong's face turned yellow, and he asked reluctantly: "But Di Qing did encounter the elephant soldier back then, how did he defeat the elephant soldier?" How did you beat it? ”

Zhao Xing replied with a smile: "Elephants are afraid of sounds, most of the domesticated elephants are deaf ears, elephant slaves use an iron hook to guide elephant movements, elephant skin is rough and thick, let it go to the left, elephant slaves will use iron hooks to hook the meat of its left ear......

However, there are many disadvantages of elephant deafness, so the alternative is to prick the deaf elephant on one side of the ear, but there are also people who do not prick the deaf elephant's ear and start domesticating, so that the elephant will be afraid of loud noises, and people have to blow the horn frequently in its ear to get it used to this sound.

In addition, the elephant never climbs a hill because it is too heavy and it takes too much energy and physical strength to climb the hill, so when the elephant walks on the road, all the grass on the lower part eats up, but the grass on the hillside does not move.

I have studied Di Qing's battlefield, after Di Qing was defeated by the elephant soldiers in a row, one day he happened to be arrayed on a hillside, so no matter how the elephant slave urged, the elephant did not want to attack the mountain on his back--- I can guess the original scene, the elephant was stagnant under the hillside, Di Qing used rockets to disturb the elephant, beat gongs and drums to make noise for the elephant, and the roasted mad war elephant reflexively trampled on the follow-up army of the Jiaozhi country, afterwards Di Qing didn't know why the elephant refused to attack him, attributing this result to God, and I was afraid that the court would be suspicious, So he vaguely described the battle situation, and as a result, it was rumored that Di Qing defeated the dog with a meat bun.

As for me, I fought the Champa country, and the Cham country has not had time to put out the elephants; Before I fought Dali, I had built the road leading to Shanxi's mansion wide, so my soldiers whistled all the way into the Shanxi's mansion of Gao Taiming, a powerful minister of Dali, and took Gao Taiming. …… It's as simple as that. ”

Sun Cong opened his mouth for a long time before closing: "That's it?!" A country that has been established for hundreds of years, a country that others thought could not be defeated by an army of 200,000, you even whistled and destroyed it. ”

Zhao Xing shook his head and replied with a chuckle: "You forget how much work I did in advance: I first built a big road, and then tried my best to stretch out my tentacles to Dali, and even spent money to cast a purple gold bronze bell for them, and now the bronze bell is still hanging in the bell tower of my Great Song Dynasty in Shanyan Mansion, in order to transport the bronze bell, I used 200,000 people to build the road for a year, and the money spent is like splashing water." You think it's simple, but how much planning is involved. ”

Sun Cong shuddered: "No wonder your name is Zhao Laohu, the people of Dali have you a big road and a bell tower for nothing, and they think they have taken a great advantage, but they didn't expect you to take the opportunity to destroy their country--- so it seems that your advantage is not easy to take advantage of, you send me half a shipload of goods, will you not have any intentions for me?" ”
