Zhao Shuo, who had an idea, decided to make a change, the only thing he was good at was business, as long as he was given time to build a business empire, it would be absolutely fine. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

With a business empire, it is not a big problem to manipulate a dynasty through an economic blockade. When the time comes, let alone going back to Song Qinzong, even if he wants to return all the people of the Great Song Dynasty who were plundered, Jin Guo will not dare to say a word.

Moreover, this can also avoid the need for soldiers to meet each other, and it will not affect the people of Lebanon.

This is arguably a pretty perfect way to do it. But in order to accomplish all this, there must be a premise. That is, Zhao Shuo must have enough strength to defend his business empire.

He is well aware that here is not the XXI century, where there is a state that protects the private property of individuals from being violated. This is a feudal society, it is the era of the supremacy of imperial power, as long as the emperor says a word, everything he has will come to naught, such stories have happened too much in feudal society.

What's even more unfortunate is that what he has to face is far from being as simple as an emperor. He was in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, not to mention the Western Xia, Dali, Western Liao, and Tubo dynasties, just a Jin country, which had already put the Southern Song Dynasty in danger.

The Southern Song Dynasty was weak, and relied on paying tribute to Jin, claiming to be a vassal, ceding land, and unjustly killing Yue Fei in exchange for the Shaoxing Peace Conference and winning a short-term peace.

If the Southern Song Dynasty suddenly has such a 'rich man' as him, I am afraid that the tiger-wolf-like Jin Kingdom will ask for more things. Even if the soldiers pressed the border and forced the Song Dynasty to hand over everything he had, it might not be possible.

And the dynasties of Western Xia, Dali, Tubo, and Western Liao may not sit still.

Thinking that even a loyal and good general like Yue Fei can be unjustly killed, he, the illegitimate son of Song Qinzong, I'm afraid Zhao Gou won't feel so distressed.

At that time, even if there will be economic losses, Zhao Shuo feels that Zhao Gou, Qin Hui and others will never care about this. After all, for the sake of short-term peace, they can do things like cutting land, paying tribute, claiming ministers, and unjustly killing Yue Fei.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shuo broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and immediately decided that in the process of working hard to make money and building a business empire, he should also cultivate a military force that was loyal to him and could compete with other forces.

To cultivate his military strength, the only person he can think of right now is Stone Lance.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Shuo's mouth and left the Zhaocai Restaurant.

……………………………………………………

In the past two days, Shi Lance's mood has become worse and worse, and the two brows are about to be twisted together. The grain that was not copied from Zhang's family is getting less and less, and the military rations allocated by the state treasury are not heard from at all. Zhao Shuo said that he would open the restaurant and let him send soldiers over for dinner, but after he issued the Jianyan Tongbao, the news of the opening of the Zhaocai Restaurant never came, but it made the soldiers' emotions become more and more high.

After a long sigh, Shi Lance decided to ask Zhao Shuo about it. Just then, a soldier ran in from outside the door.

"Report to the deputy commander, a young man outside the door, claiming to be your brother, asked to see the deputy commander, the little one doesn't know if it's true or not, so I'm here to ask for instructions."

"My brother?" The stone lance pondered, and then shouted. "Please tell me something, why don't you take me out to meet me."

It's no wonder how big Shi Lance's reaction is, because, in Lin'an City, he claims to be his brother, and there will be no one else except Zhao Shuo.

Outside the gate, Zhao Shuo stood with his hands behind his back.

The door opened, and the stone lance rushed out at a trot, kneeling on the ground in front of Zhao Shuo. "The last general is late, and I hope His Highness will forgive his sins."

went to report the news, and the soldiers who came out with Shi Lance were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"The little one has eyes and no beads, and he doesn't recognize His Highness, and he still hopes that His Highness will atone for his sins."

The other soldier, who was standing in front of the door, went limp, and collapsed. He didn't look at Zhao Shuo at all just now, and only then did he know that he had caused a big disaster.

"Your Highness, small, small...... Spare your life! "The soldier was so confused that he didn't know what to say.

Zhao Shuo first picked up the stone lance, and then said to the two soldiers. "As the saying goes, those who don't know are not guilty, get up, and serve the country well in the future."

After finishing speaking, under the leadership of Shi Lance, he entered the Stone Mansion.

The two soldiers looked at the background of the stone lance, and their admiration came naturally.

…………………………………………………………

The living room of the stone house.

Zhao Shuo sits next to Lance, and Fluttershy stands behind Zhao Shuo's chair.

"Brother Shi, look at your face, it's not been a good time these days." As soon as he sat down, Zhao Shuo took the lead in speaking.

"Don't hide it from Your Highness, it's still a matter of military rations, if this matter is not solved for a day, the last general's heart will not be able to go on for a day." Shi Lance sighed and said helplessly.

Zhao Shuo nodded. "I also blame me for this, I thought that opening a restaurant could help you, but in the past few days, I haven't even bought a day's food supply, which is really ashamed."

"What did His Highness say, how can you blame His Highness for this......" Shi Lance hurriedly spoke.

Zhao Shuo waved his hand and interrupted Shi Yan's words. "This is a stop in advance, I am here for another thing."

"If Your Highness has orders, but it is okay, the general will do his best." Shi Lance clenched his fists and said in a deep voice.

Zhao Shuo looked at the stone lance. "In that case, I'll be straight to the point."

Speaking of this, Zhao Shuo paused for a moment, and only after seeing the puzzled expression on Shi Yan's face did he continue. "I want Brother Shi to write a letter to the imperial court, asking to fight against the Jin soldiers."

Zhao Shuo's words exploded in Shi Yan's mind like a thunderbolt. He did think about this question, but how could these soldiers under his command who couldn't even eat enough be the opponents of the wolf-like golden soldiers. Letting them attack the Jin soldiers is almost like sending them to death. For this reason, every time he thought of it, he would forcibly suppress it.

Now Zhao Shuo proposed to let a flame burn in his chest again, but thinking of the reality he had to face, he had to suppress it again.

Looking at the stone lance whose expression was constantly changing, but he was silent for a long time, Zhao Shuo frowned. "Isn't Brother Shi willing?"

Shi Yan was still suppressing, and when he heard Zhao Shuo's slightly unconcealed words, he hurriedly said. "Your Highness is wrong to blame the last general, let's ask which general with troops doesn't want to fight on the battlefield and defend the country."

Speaking of this, Shi Lance sighed. "However, in the current situation, if you take these soldiers into battle, it is no different from sending them to death. The last will die without complaint, but these soldiers ...... The last general couldn't bear it. ”

Zhao Shuo pondered for a moment. "What if you can inflict heavy damage on the golden soldiers and make a contribution?"

"This ......," the lance almost said, 'How is this possible.' But I still pressed it down.

"Believe me, now that the Jin soldiers have retreated, they should have arrived in Zhenjiang, where they will definitely experience a big battle. Brother Shi is going now, it's not too late, and when he comes back, he will definitely be famous. Zhao Shuo said confidently.

"Your Highness, is this true?" If this had been said by someone else, the stone lance would have been taken down and pulled out to be cut off, because the credibility was too low.

Zhao Shuo leaned forward. "Of course, there is another prerequisite for success."

"Your Highness, please speak!" Shi Li felt that Zhao Shuo didn't look like he was joking, and his face became solemn.

"After arriving in Zhenjiang, you have to listen to Han Shizhong for everything, where is there a place name called Huang Tiandang, there, you have to behave well." Zhao Shuo lowered his voice.

Stone Lance nodded. "Han Shizhong is the envoy of the western part of Zhejiang, and the last general should listen to him in the past."

"That's good, remember that Huang Tiandang has to behave well." Zhao Shuo said the three words Huang Tiandang very seriously.

Stone Lance nodded heavily. "Since this is the case, then the general will immediately write a memo and ask for troops to fight against Jin."
