If only one person can survive in the world, then the survival probability of Wen Xianggong is definitely much higher than that of Wang Ningan!

The old guy is like a chameleon, no matter where he goes, he can quickly adapt to it, and find his position, and then live comfortably, accumulate energy, and when the accumulation is enough, he will make waves, turn his face and not recognize people, what shame, discipline, he has already sold Wen Xianggong.

Take Wang Ning'an as an example, when he drank tea with a strange taste, he had to shake his head, feeling that it was difficult to swallow. Wen Yanbo smiled happily and talked with Wang Ningan about business opportunities, if he could get the top tea from Jiangnan and Bashu to the northwest, he would definitely be able to sell it at a good price.

Unconsciously, Lao Wen has become a copper-smelling businessman, looking at problems from the perspective of a businessman everywhere.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with that.

In order to govern the northwest, it is first necessary to straighten out commercial activities.

With exchange, there is taxation, with taxation, it is possible to raise soldiers, and with soldiers it is possible to establish order...... That's what a king should do.

Wang Ning'an was not in a hurry to attack Liangzhou, because the merchants from the Western Regions had already sent the news.

Murong Qingchen and they were very lucky, Xizhi's 100,000 horses attacked Puchanghai, maybe Xizhi felt that the grain planted by the Song people would fall into their hands, so he did not destroy hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land by Puchang Sea.

According to Murong Qingchen's calculations, 300,000 stone of grain can be harvested this year, which is not a lot, but it is enough for Pu Changhai's people to eat for two years.

Wang Shao took advantage of the summer to send three more batches of Han Chinese to the Western Regions, so that there were more than 50,000 Han people living around Puchanghai, and nearly 100,000 captives, as well as Uighurs, which had become a relatively large settlement in the Western Regions, second only to Yili.

Wang Ning'an made a preliminary estimate that with Murong's strength, it was enough to protect himself, and there was no need for him to overdraw the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty and forcibly open the border.

Therefore, you can use a year and a half to straighten out the situation in the northwest, accumulate enough strength, and then attack Liangzhou and take your own fiefdom.

Wang Ningan only asked Yang Wenguang for 15,000 people, including 10,000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry, which was enough to defend Lanzhou.

Yang Wenguang hopes that his son-in-law will bring more people, you must know that his baby daughter and even more precious grandson are in the army!

The Yang family has been passed down to Yang Huaiyu's generation, and there are few talents in the future, especially Yang Huaiyu's wife gave birth to four daughters in a row, which made Yang Wenguang angry to death.

The common people have a saying, called "Steal the door of the five women!

What do you mean?

That is to say, if a family gives birth to five daughters in a row, and does not even have a son, it is unlucky and hopeless, and even thieves are not willing to steal your family's money, for fear of getting into bad luck!

Congratulations to Yang Huaiyu, there is only one thing missing, and the great achievement has been achieved!

Yang Wenguang is very angry, but Yang Huaiyu is even more stubborn, he has a good relationship with his wife, and his daughter is more intimate! He didn't take a concubine, nor did he have sex with the maid, he just hanged himself from a tree, so that Yang Wenguang had no way to do it.

The old man had to hit the idea on Gouya and Xiaoyi, it really can't be done, so he grabbed a grandson to come over and inherit the portal, anyway, these two boys are quite likable.

Yang Wenguang dispatched the most elite 500 Yang family tribes, all of which were handed over to Gouya'er and Xiaoyi, and the intention was self-evident.

Regarding the old father-in-law's blatant digging of the foot of the wall, Wang Ningan could only say twice!

You can fight casually, it's my son anyway, and I can't run away!

Wang Ningan's energy is still focused on standardizing business and making the economy run normally. As soon as he wanted to do something serious, Wen Yanbo made a big commotion.

Our Wen Xianggong investigated the market for a few days, and then made a decisive move and arrested twelve Song merchants.

Wen Yanbo publicly announced their crimes, such as shoddy, fraudulent transactions, and selling counterfeit goods, seriously disrupting the commercial order, harming the interests of businessmen from all sides, and ruining the reputation of the Great Song Dynasty...... Lao Wen immediately ordered and demanded a decisive decision!

All of a sudden, it got a big deal.

The merchants of the Great Song Dynasty are gone!

You Wen Yanbo has a sick brain, who don't the fools in the Western Regions lie to them, which side are you Wen Yanbo on? How do you turn to outsiders?

Many businessmen found Wang Ning'an in a huff, crying and begging the prince to take action and save the lives of these poor companions.

Of course, Wang Ningan was furious, he really found Wen Yanbo, but the family Wen Xianggong ignored Wang Ningan at all.

How about you being a prince?

Commercial affairs belong to civil affairs, and it is the authority of the old man, if you are not convinced, let's go to the court to fight a lawsuit!

Wang Ningan and Wen Yanbo quarreled fiercely, and the two civil and military officials almost started to fight, and the final result was that Wen Yanbo executed two of them, and the other ten, confiscated all their property, and expelled them from Lanzhou, and they were never allowed to come over to do business.

Wen Xianggong's decisive hand shook the chaotic market, whether it was the Song merchants, the merchants of the Western Regions, or even the merchants of the Great Food, they were all suppressed.

Immediately, Wen Yanbo set aside a special market and arranged personnel and soldiers to guard it.

In the trading center of the market, there are many signs that list the mainland price and the border price of the product, and issue a guide price.

If there is a significant deviation from the guide price, the trade can be voided.

For example, a piece of silk is 10 yuan in the mainland and 20 yuan in the border land, and in the market, the guide price is usually slightly lower than the price of the border land, which is set at about 18 yuan.

Obviously, this measure greatly protected the interests of Hu merchants in the Western Regions. Let the bearded men be grateful, they finally saw the demeanor of the civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty, and they are really selfless, upright, and treat everyone, even outsiders, equally, which is really intimate.

Soon, all the Hu merchants took the initiative to register and trade in the trading center.

Although they have to pay one-tenth of the transaction tax, they simply can't ask for it because the price is fair and the quality of the goods is guaranteed.

Of course, only a few people can see clearly Wen Yanbo's ghost tricks.

For example, the price of the border land is also divided into many kinds, and the selling price of Hengshan is the same as that of Youzhou? Qinzhou's, is it the same as Yan'an's mansion? And at different times, because the supply of goods is unstable, the price is also different.

Wen Yanbo chose the most expensive place and the most expensive time period, so the price of the border land marked was not at all the price that the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty could sell.

In fact, the guide price has far exceeded the average price of silk.

The merchants of the Great Song Dynasty have already made a lot of money.

Wen Yanbo also stipulated that all transactions must use the Jiaozi of the Great Song Dynasty, so that the gold and silver brought by merchants in the Western Regions must be exchanged for the transaction first.

Of course, Wen Xianggong will not let the guests suffer.

But behind the seemingly fair price, it is the trading center that quickly accumulates precious metals, and with precious metals as a guarantee, more Jiaozi can be issued.

Then use fine paper to purchase goods from the Western Regions...... Wang Ningan just clicked a few words on this set of business scriptures, and Wen Yanbo understood it, and he was really smart.

This is also related to the operation of Xijing Bank, in the final analysis, Wen Xianggong has gradually distanced himself from the traditional scholars, and he has understood the rules of the financial and commercial game.

Play well and earn a lot of brains.

In less than a month, Wen Yanbo put 100,000 yuan into his pocket, and by the way, he also took a few valuable pieces of land.

If this continues, it won't take long to accumulate a lot of wealth, and if the Hexi Corridor is opened, maybe you can earn even more!

Then there is the Great Song Dynasty to implement the copper standard, to be honest, the value of copper is still too low, to buy a silk, you have to use five times the weight of the weight of the silk copper coin, can be purchased, very troublesome.

If you can issue silver or gold coins, then you can make a lot of money!

Wen Xianggong's eyes were full of golden stars.

He immediately sent a letter to his son Wen Jifu, seeing that your father was suffering, he didn't come to the northwest with him, but stayed in Luoyang to enjoy, you want to rebel?

Wen Yanbo scolded in the letter, stinky boy, hurry up and come over and discuss the plan to make a fortune together, if you dare not come, the old man will not recognize this son!!

Sending the letter out, Wen Yanbo felt that he lacked helpers around him, and he relied on himself for everything, and he was not tired to death!

He thought about it, and went to find those elders of the Elder Society.

These people can't do anything else, but their administrative skills are still very good, and after decades of experience, which one is not a human being? Wen Yanbo first found Song Zhen's home.

Several members of the Senior Ying Society are all allocated, they have no mansion to live in, and Song Zhen's family is crammed into a crooked courtyard.

The room is dim and cramped, the sewage around it is cross-flowing, and the neighbors are also three religions and nine streams, and everyone has it.

How could Song Xianggong have suffered this crime!

Since he moved in, he has never stepped out of the yard, and he has been rummaging through his box of books all day, and it is almost rotten.

Today, Song Xianggong can't stand it, the reason is very simple, it's the second half of the night, he hasn't eaten, and he wants to starve the old man to death! Finally got used to the rough food, the old man has nothing else to ask for, why can't he even reach the most basic food and clothing?

Song Zhen snorted angrily, but he happened to see his old wife and two daughters-in-law crying each other.

"What are you crying about, why don't you cook? Want to starve to death? ”

He roared twice, and Madame was full of anger and couldn't help but explode.

"Master, do you still think that you are the prime minister? You're a prisoner! There is still food on the road, and when I arrived in Lanzhou, it has been a month, and the imperial court has long stopped distributing food! ”

"What?"

Song Zhen's eyes widened, and he roared angrily: "No food? Do they want to starve the old man to death? So, where did all the food we eat come from these days? ”

"You just know how to ask? Our family, our family is also going to pawn to live! ”

The lady covered her face, cried bitterly, and ran into the next room in shame, at this time Song Zhen's son came back from outside, and even pulled the old man, as if he had eaten bitter melon.

"Dad, forgive the child for being incompetent, people don't want this thing!"

The son held two hostas in his hand and sent them to his father.

Song Zhen was stunned, "How can no one want it?" This is a good Hanyu, chicken bone white, in the capital, let alone a few hundred! ”

The son was helpless, and said with a wry smile: "Dad, there are not many in the Western Regions, that is, there are many jade and agate, and they are all over the street...... Son, son really can't help it! ”
