Li Fuli is no stranger to Di Bao and knows about newspapers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He is in Liao all the year round, Liao Shangjing is quite like the system of Song Bianjing, Bianjing is popular football league, and Liao Shangjing is also popular. In order to serve the football league, Da Song issued a special report to analyze the league, and Liaoguo also came out.

It's just that this "Donghai Business Daily" is more beautifully printed than the ball newspaper, and it seems to use different printing engravings, inks, and papers.

What attracted Li to the benefit was the headline on the front page of the Donghai Business Daily.

"Is the earth round? Absurd, absurd, the sky is round, the earth is naturally square, how can it be a round ball, if the earth is a ball, where does it float? ”

He picked up the newspaper, paid ten cents, and began to read its contents.

The sun, moon, stars and the earth are all spherical celestial bodies, and their operation has its own rules, so the so-called "heaven is constant", the moon revolves around the earth, and the earth revolves around the sun, all because of its power, it will not be abandoned......

A lot of "muses" made Li Fuli disagree, such nonsense could be put out in the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty was probably going to die......

It's just that after thinking about it, he felt sad again, it was not the Great Song Dynasty that was going to die, but his Xia Kingdom.

He wasn't interested in the contents, but he was interested in the bounty that followed.

The Donghai Chamber of Commerce paid a lot of money, as high as 100,000 yuan, to recruit brave men and go to sea to circumnavigate the land for a week, in order to verify whether the earth is spherical.

At the same time, the Donghai Chamber of Commerce paid a lot of money, ranging from 10 to 10,000 yuan, to make up for the map attached to the business newspaper.

Since ancient times, maps have been an important secret of a country, but the Tokai Chamber of Commerce has openly drawn maps on newspapers?

Li Fufu hurriedly flipped to the newspaper sheet, only to see that the sheet was twice as large as the newspaper itself, and the map was indeed drawn with thin lines.

In addition to the map, there are legends, but this map is still clever, drawing the boundaries of the Great Song Dynasty, although the city, but not drawing the road, but the official road of the Xia State of Liao, are marked with solid lines.

Li Fufu hurriedly looked at Xia Guo's picture, and then gasped.

This map is at least the same as the situation in the Xia Kingdom in his memory, eight or nine are not far from ten, and the remaining one point is different, I don't know if he remembered it wrong, or if this map was drawn wrong!

To the west of the Xia kingdom were the Western Uighurs and the Yellow Headed Uighurs, further west, the Black Khan and Khotan, and then to the west, the Seljuks.

Even if Li Fuli is a Xia person, he doesn't know much about this extreme west.

He looked north and west along the map, and there was a large area of blank space, covered in gray, as if it was covered by the fog, and after people saw it, they wanted to go and explore and uncover the truth behind the fog.

"What about the big food, what about Persia, and what about Tianzhu?" Seeing this situation, Li Fufu couldn't help but have an idea in his heart, wanting to make up some of the countries he knew. But he soon gave up this idea, and he had only heard of these countries by name, but had not personally visited them, so he could not draw a detailed picture of them.

Looking at the back of the map, text is also printed, but it is an introduction to the countries other than the Great Song Dynasty on the map.

For example, the introduction of Western Xia, there are a lot of disrespectful words to the Xia lord in the content: it originally belonged to the hometown of the Han family, was stolen by the party, and there were a number of people and a number of properties.

Just from the introduction of this picture, it can be seen that the Great Song Dynasty had the idea of the death of the Xia Kingdom.

Looking at the Liao State again, it is also like the Xia Kingdom, and then there are the two Uighurs, speaking of its trade routes, only from the trade alone, the annual income of 10,000 gold, and the rivers and mountains, the beauty of its melons and fruits, is the best in the world. This place was originally the old land of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and now it has fallen into the hands of the Uighurs, who are the seeds of the cold plains of Beiming, and they have moved thousands of miles to live here temporarily, but they will return to the Han rule sooner or later.

In short, most of the countries introduced have a word: since ancient times, they are all Han lands.

Li Fuli had to admit that it is true that since ancient times, these places have been pioneered by the Han people, not to mention that the Xia country where he is now located, its lord was just a small tribe attached to the Han people, and took advantage of the decline of the Han people's internal strife to steal a place and establish himself as the king.

His gaze was fixed on the large blank space on the map.

The Western Uighurs were no strangers to the Western Xia, and the three states of Gua, Sha, and Su were the spoils of victory in the Western Xia.

"Since Xingqing is too much to stay, we can go to the land of Hexi, where there are water and grass and oasis, take this as the foundation, and then take the land of the Uighurs in Xizhou, get the trade road, with the help of the desert, and confront the Great Song Dynasty, in order to wait for the change of time! The Lord of Song is like the Lord of Liao, absurd and stupid, and his powerful ministers are traitorous, and his country will not last long, just wait for change, or there is still a chance! ”

The large blank space in that map gave Li Fuli infinite reverie.

Even if you can't wait for the opportunity, you can get Xizhou, you can get a respite, and then go west to conquer the Black Khan, at this time it is reported that the Black Khan believes in the Great Food Religion and persecutes the Buddhists, which is in the name of rejuvenating the Buddha and gaining the support of the local Buddhists.

Li Fuli didn't believe it, they hid in Black Khan, and Da Song would follow.

He made up his mind not to wait or look at the full mall, but turned and left.

Soon, staring at his eyeliner, he came to report: "Li Fuli is ready to return to the Xia Kingdom!" ”

Wang Qinian filed this news and did not pay much attention to it. Just like Zhou Quan's thoughts, in their opinion, the fish on the shore of the Xixia capital can't jump a few times, so there is no need to pay more attention. But he never thought that among the three current lords of Song, Liao, and Xia, Li Qianshun, the lord of Xia, was the most born in distress, so his ability to respond to crises was also the strongest among the three lords.

The next thing Wang Qinian wants to lay out is to let the radicals who came to assassinate the Manichaeans all wipe out.

Although Fang La used the strategy of killing people with a knife, Zhou Quan had the same interests in killing these Manichaean radicals, so he was also happy to act as this murderous knife.

It was precisely for this reason that Zhou Quan did not leave Jingshi immediately after the Lantern Festival, but delayed it until the 24th day of the first month of the sixth year of Zhenghe.

In the evening of this day, Wang Qinian arrived at Zhou Quan's house: "Da Lang, I went out to do something. ”

"Well, I've seen your plan, it's very good, but a good plan is only the beginning of success, and if you do it cleanly, that's the real success." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

Wang Qinian nodded and went out, and Han Shizhong and Song Xingfeng, who were facing him, were smiling at him.

Although Han and Song are older than those of these array teenagers, they are only seven or eight years older, and they are basically the same age. Everyone has been together for so long, and they are precocious to each other, and they can joke with each other.

Song Xingfeng said straightforwardly: "Brother Xiao Wang goes out, is there something to do, but do you need my brother to help?" ”

These days, the two of them were left by Zhou Quan's side, and they were somewhat panicked. Especially Song Xingfeng, his dedication is heavier than Han Shizhong's, knowing that as soon as Wang Qinian is dispatched, he must have an important task, and he also wants to go with him to take credit.

Look at Han Shizhong, even his daughter-in-law was married, and when he got married, it was very lively, which really made Song Xingfeng envious.

"If you want to deal with water, the two brothers should be here to listen to Da Lang's teachings." Wang Qinian pursed his lips and smiled, while Han Shizhong and Song Xingfeng suddenly turned into bitter gourd faces.

Zhou Quan rarely went out, but the two of them were not really idle, they had to read and write every day, and they had to learn arithmetic - for the two of them, this was much more difficult than going into battle to kill the enemy general.

Wang Qinian went out, first went to Baijia Lane, and went back to his old house to take a look.

Everyone in the old house has moved away, but there are many neighbors who know him, and many of them greet him, looking at his gaze, somewhat envious.

Those teenagers who left with Zhou Quan are now very prosperous, and most of their families have taken them away, but in the letters he came, everyone learned that the glass lamps, grandfather clocks and other affairs they had only seen in the Beijing division had been used by people as early as two or three months ago.

Wang Qinian leaned in front of the old mansion for half an hour, and when he left, there were already five companions gathered around him.

After a few streets, the number of companions gathered around him was already twelve.

"It's business as usual." Every companion would say this when they first saw him, Wang Qinian just squinted and nodded slightly.

Along the riverside street, they arrived at a wharf on the bank of the river, and there was a Wangjia paper horse shop across the street, selling paper money and paper horses used in sweeping memorials. Wang Qinian looked in front of this paper horse shop and asked everyone to wait for him, he entered it, and after a while, when he came out, he was carrying a string of paper money in his hand.

"Haha, it's paper silver yuan!" A companion said with a smile.

Wang Qinian also felt a little funny, silver yuan is gradually becoming popular in Bianjing City, these people who sell dark money even imitate the appearance of silver yuan to make paper money, instead of the previous copper money.

Handing over the paper money to a companion, he and the others continued on their way, and after a while, a man came running from the side of the road and whispered to him, "This is the ship." ”

In the middle of the Bianhe River, there is a big boat, which seems to have transported a lot of goods, and there are more than ten big men standing on the boat, Wang Qinian, who was far away, glanced at it, and the companions around him were breathing a little quickly, obviously nervous.

Wang Qinian was not nervous, he saw a little girl on the side of the road stepping on the corner of his sleeve and falling to the ground, and hurriedly ran two steps to help the little girl up.

"Whose little lady is this, you have to be careful when walking." Wang Qinian said to the little girl with a smile.

The little girl was only five or six years old, with a pair of big eyes flickering, glanced at Wang Qinian, and then quickly ran into a shop on the side of the road.

It's just that after running into the shop, she also stuck out her head and quietly looked at Wang Qinian. It's very cute.

Wang Qinian smiled, went to a cake stall on the side of the road to buy cakes, beckoned to the little girl, and handed the cakes over.

The little girl wanted to refuse, but there was a few things in her eyes that she wanted to eat. Wang Qinian stuffed the cooking cake into her hand and patted her little shoulder gently: "Take it, brother, I'm busy, but I don't have time to play with the little girl." ”

"Brother, what are you busy with?" The little girl asked, grabbing the cookcake.

Wang Qinian didn't want to answer, but he didn't know why, he still turned around and grinned: "Busy killing." (To be continued.) )
