"You mean, you instigated the small tribe of the Mongolian people to rob the eight grain merchants led by the Fan family to transport the materials to Liaodong?"

"That's right, Brother Zhou." Zhiwen frankly admitted, after all, the system space is too mysterious, and it can only be pushed to the head of the Mengren, and there is still a lot of food in the Dalin Taibu now, if you don't say so, you can't explain it clearly.

"For this reason, the Jin people wantonly purged the eastern Mongolian tribes, and the Dalin Taibu also changed the leader of the Han people?"

"What? You set that fire in Shengjing? Zhou Chengyun was shocked, he had some contact with the generals of Phi Dao, and he had also heard of the fire in Shengjing, but he didn't expect it to be done by Zhiwen, what a lot of courage and ability he had, but what shocked him was still to come.

Similarly, Zhiwen did not say anything about the gold grain after he was taken away, but continued to talk about it.

"The Khan of Sunit Left Banner was let by you to let people be elevated?" Zhou Chengyun was even more surprised, if the trip to Shengjing relied on courage and skill, then the change of the Sunit Department needed wisdom.

Although because of the Fan family, the salt merchants in southern Jin were isolated from the border trade, Zhou Chengyun still had some understanding of the situation outside the Saiwai, and the sphere of influence of the Sunit Left Banner included the grasslands outside Zhangjiakou, which could be regarded as a big tribe, if it was not subdued by the Houjin, it would not be so easy for the Fan family to smuggle to Liaodong.

If the power of the Sunit Right Banner is added, it can even threaten the power of Lin Dan Khan, who is close to their west, and become a force to be reckoned with in the steppe after moving westward.

Once the Sunit Department is actually controlled, it can be said that the door of border trade has been opened to them, even if they do not sell contraband, they can make a lot of money with only ordinary items such as grain, cloth, and tea, of course, provided that the border troops at the various passes along the Great Wall have good relations.

"Awesome, Xiaozhi." Zhou Chengyun sincerely admired that in less than half a year, Zhiwen could do so many things, which he never expected beforehand, "These are the good things you said?" ”

"Fate will meet, fate will meet." Zhiwen pretended to be humble and said, "Not only that, there are even greater good things, Brother Zhou, you can sit down, don't fall off the chair." ”

"Cut, you, Brother Zhou, I have also seen a big scene, it's not as unbearable as you think, aren't you looking for a fight? Come on. "Zhou Chengyun is a little funny, this kid actually made a nondescript prime minister in Sunit, it's really too much for the Three Kingdoms.

"Listen, Brother Zhou, between the left and right banners of Sunit, a large salt lake was discovered, I estimate, how can it be bigger than the one in Jiezhou, I have already instructed Surut, let him control the right banner as soon as possible, so as to include the entire salt lake in the bag, how about it, no surprise, unhappy?" Zhiwen was proud, and even the tone of the king of comedy in his previous life was unconsciously used.

"What? Salt lake, are you sure? Zhou Chengyun was not as excited as Zhiwen imagined, but asked a little nervously.

"Of course I can be sure, I have tasted the lake water, it is salty and bitter, and when the weather is fine, the lake is still salted with white flowers, isn't it a salt lake?"

"Oops!" Zhou Chengyun suddenly stood up from his chair, "Do you have a salt lake in Mongolia?" Wouldn't the imperial court's ban on salt become useless, and under the great rise in the strength of the Mongolian people, maybe they will commit crimes again, and even the eastern captives will profit from it, how can this be good? ”

Seeing that Zhou Chengyun was not happy but worried, Zhiwen was still a little strange at the beginning, and listening to him babbling to himself, he understood his worries, and couldn't help but smile on the side, "Anla, Brother Zhou, Mongolian people don't know how to make salt, and it has been abandoned for so many years." ”

When Zhou Chengyun heard this, he came to his senses, and couldn't help but laugh at himself a little gaffe, I don't know how long this salt lake has existed, if the Mongolian people knew how to make salt, they would definitely have started a long time ago, and it would not be like now, and it would not be the same as now, and it would not be the strength it is now, and it would not be Zhiwen's turn to discover.

"It's because I'm in a hurry and want to go wrong." Zhou Chengyun laughed at himself, "What, this is the bigger good thing you are talking about?" ”

"Isn't it?" Zhiwen asked rhetorically, "Brother Zhou, the salt lake in Jiezhou, I don't know how many shares have been divided, even so, everyone still earns a lot, this Renzhuoer Lake, but it completely belongs to our Zhuolu Trading Company, and it doesn't make a lot of money, of course, score some benefits for Sunit left and right." ”

"That's what I'm worried about." Zhou Chengyun said with a calm face, "The Sunit Department has the help of salt profits, and its strength will rise sharply, and when the time comes, the integration of the Mongolian tribes will become a major border trouble for my Ming Dynasty, and the Dongyu is still wreaking havoc in Liaodong, we can no longer add blockage to the imperial court, you know, the reason why the salt merchants in southern Jin have been suppressed by the grain merchants in northern Jin in recent years is because we are unwilling to go along with them, and in the name of border trade, we have made a windfall and funded foreign enemies. ”

On the one hand, he thought that what Zhou Chengyun said would not happen, and on the other hand, Zhiwen felt sincere admiration for Zhou Chengyun's patriotism.

In the last days of the Ming Empire, there were many sinners who betrayed their own country and nation, and there were also many loyal people like Zhou Chengyun who stuck to their hearts and never renegade, they may be nameless, but it is undeniable that these people are the backbone of the Chinese nation.

Zhiwen stood up in a proper manner and respectfully bowed to Zhou Chengyun.

"Xiao Zhi, what are you..."Zhou Chengyun asked puzzled.

"Brother Zhou, I salute you with a piece of Dan heart, and you can bear it." Zhiwen finished saluting, sat back in his chair and continued, "However, my opinion is different from yours, what you just said, I don't think it will happen, on the contrary, the Sunit Department, and then the Mongolian Ministry, will fall at the feet of our Zhuolu Trading Company one after another, become our help on the grassland, and then... Becoming a threat to the Eastern Captives, our generation's move will not only not harm the country, but can help the imperial court solve the Eastern Captives. ”

"Xiaozhi, what you said is like Lin Yuan in Dalintai, they are Han people, they miss their homeland, I believe it, but this Dalintai is a small tribe after all, if the major tribes of the Mongolian people are controlled by the Han people, what you say is credible, but how difficult it is, I don't say that you also know, the small tribe may be able to do it, the big tribe not only pays attention to blood inheritance, but also cannot let a Han person override their heads, not my race, their hearts will be different, feed them strong, sooner or later they will be counterattacked." Zhou Chengyun said to Zhiwen earnestly, trying to correct Zhiwen's concept.
