Yelu Yanxi spoke of his family with a smug attitude, apparently believing that it was a remarkable move that he was able to bring so much wealth in such a situation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhou Quan once again saw the unreliability of this father-in-law.

But if he has his own property, he can save Zhou Quan some money.

"But it's not a way to sit on the mountain and eat empty, virtuous son-in-law, I know that you are a person who can make money, I will give you five boxes of gold and silver, and you will help me make money...... Well, I will give you five more jewels and jade treasures to play with the box, as Yu Liyan's dowry, alas, if I say that I am ashamed, I am sorry for Yu Liyan! ”

This guy is really a little sincere to Yu Liyan, these gold, silver, pearls and jade are the only remaining things of the emperor of the Great Liao Empire, and he is also willing to take out one-eighth of it as Yu Liyan's dowry, Zhou Quan, who originally took care of his thoughts, was a little moved when he heard this.

But what this guy said is also true, although he has brought a lot of wealth, but sitting on the mountain and eating short, in the city of the five countries, where there are constantly new things and the commodity economy is extremely developed, it is not enough to just rely on eating the old capital.

"The five boxes of gold and silver for my father-in-law, I will find an industry for my father-in-law and invest in it, and there will always be some income every year." After thinking for a while, Zhou Quan said.

"So very good, very good, come with me."

was probably afraid of Concubine Wen, so Yelu Yanxi used this as an excuse to pull Zhou Quan to the treasury behind the Governor's Palace.

Then Zhou Quan saw his five-mouth box.

Originally, Zhou Quan thought that the box he came to bring was inconvenient on the way, it was just a small box, at most it was the kind of wooden box carried by the two of them, but after seeing it, Zhou Quan was a little speechless.

The box is too big!

A box is estimated to be the size of a sedan chair, and the box contains all gold and silver, and the value is no less than 100,000 yuan, that is, 100,000 silver yuan.

So when it is converted, the gold and silver brought by his cheap man alone are 1.5 million yuan, plus the pearls and jade treasures he brought...... I'm afraid that this cheap man has taken out all the remnants of the treasury of the Liao State.

In the past few years, Yelu Dashi has worked hard in Japan, and the money he earned seems to have been brought by him.

There are many industries that can be invested in 500,000 yuan, and the most promising of them is the manufacture of steam engines, an industry that will be hugely profitable for decades.

Let Yelu Yanxi be a shareholder who only lives on dividends, which is a good resettlement method, saving him from tossing everywhere.

"In addition to this gold and silver, there is one more thing that needs to be disposed of." Zhou Quan thought of this, and looked at Yelu Yanxi with blazing eyes: "Those subordinates of the father-in-law." ”

"My guard?" Yelu Yanxi was a little inexplicable: "Then it doesn't need to be said, except for leaving me a guard of honor, the rest belongs to you, they are Yu Liyan's real dowry, our Da Liao princess is married, how can there be no herdsmen to escort the dowry?" ”

Although this old man is upside down, he is still smart.

The thousands of people brought by Yelu Yanxi are a large force on Jeju Island, and these days, in order to monitor them, Li Qing, Bai Xianfeng and others have spent a lot of energy.

In peacetime, there is nothing, but if you want to fight abroad, you need to transfer manpower from Jeju, and these thousands of people will become a hidden danger.

"I'm going to ask them themselves, those who are willing to continue to serve in the army, I will select the best, let them join my cavalry unit, and those who are not willing to join the army or select the eliminated can enter the North Island Ranch." Zhou Quan groaned slightly and pointed to the north.

The local ranches in Jeju obviously can't accommodate so many people, but Bukhae Island is different. As Hokkaido, the large island, which Zhou Quan called Hokkaido, was covered with vast grasslands, and only a few Ezo people lived on the island, and the Japanese did not consider this desolate, cold island to be their territory, but called it Ezo.

Therefore, when Zhou Quan traveled through Japan, he easily established a base here, and with the base as the center, he expanded pastures and farms around it. The people he moved from Liaodong and Yanyun were divided into 5,000 households here, of which the ratio of Han, Khitan, and Xi was about five to three to two.

It was Zhou Quan's strict order to maintain the majority of the Han nationality in any region, so that he would not be stupid enough to establish a so-called autonomous region named after a foreign race on the territory he had expanded, so as to give up his name.

As for the local Ezo, Zhou Quan's attitude towards them is quite good, these uncivilized peoples who are short in stature and even have beards for women are at an absolute cultural disadvantage, and their production efficiency is not high, as long as there are two or three generations, they will be completely assimilated.

"I don't have a problem, just settle them down." Yelu Yanxi was not interested in this at all, and when Concubine Wen was not by his side at this time, he became interested again: "I heard that Jeju also has a good hunting ground, if the virtuous son-in-law is free, how about we go out to hunt together?" ”

This person does not lose the country, it is really intolerable.

Zhou Quan followed his topic: "There is no good hunting ground in Jeju, but Liuqiu, it is good to hunt deer there, and there are no less than 100,000 deer skins transported from Liuqiu every year." ”

Yelu Yanxi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Then I want to go to beg, you arrange for me to beg!" ”

"At this time, the climate is hot, I am afraid that the father-in-law is not suitable for the local climate, and after the autumn, I will send the father-in-law, when the north wind is at the beginning, from Jeju to Liuqiu, it will be a three-to-five day voyage."

Yelu Yanxi nodded again and again, looking forward to the days when he would go hunting in the future.

Zhou Quan saw that he never mentioned business, so he could only interrupt his nonsense: "What is the situation on the Jin side, please tell me about it." ”

Yelu Yanxi's eyes glared: "I can't beat them, you listen to what I said, don't you ask Yu Blind?" ”

He still has a little self-knowledge, Zhou Quan couldn't help but laugh, but continued to ask. Yelu Yanxi saw that he was asking sincerely, so he told him everything he knew about the recent situation in the Jin Kingdom.

Since Yelu Yu took refuge in the Jin people, the Liao State has been known to the Jin people. Therefore, the Jin people quickly intercepted the rescue road of the Liao State in the area of the Liao River, and then concentrated their forces to conquer Liaodong. The Liaodong Peninsula, which had lost its support, was occupied by the Jin people in just over two months, and the Jin people not only obtained a large number of people, grain and livestock, but also obtained iron ore and a large number of craftsmen in Liaodong.

And after the loss of Liaodong, the fate of Liaoguo has already been decided.

After that, the Jin people recuperated for two years, and suddenly broke out in the winter. The monarchs and ministers of the Liao State did not expect that the Jin people would choose such a cold time to attack, and all the tribes were also looking for land to spend the winter, so they could not levy enough troops to resist, and Yelu Yanxi, Xiao Fengxian, etc. were really not people who fought tough battles, so they fought four battles successively, and all four battles were northern, Yelu Yanxi was forced to flee from Shangjing to Zhongjing, and then fled from Zhongjing to Yanjing.

Yelu Yanxi didn't have any taboos about his failure, he didn't know much about the reality inside the Jin Kingdom, and Zhou Quan had already mastered it, but at the end, he added: "I heard that there are Han people in the Jin people to help, and they can also make cannons!" ”

Seeing that Zhou Quan didn't think so, Yelu Yanxi said again: "It's not the Han people from Liaodi, it's the Han people from the Great Song Dynasty...... It wasn't sent by your Great Song official family, but brought by Jiang Nanyi. ”

This made Zhou Quan frown, what Yelu Yanxi said about the Han people from Jiangnan is true or false?

At this time, he didn't care, feeling that now that there are frequent trade exchanges in the East China Sea, there are always Han people from the south who go to the Jin country to trade, greedy for the rewards of the Jin country and work for it. It's just that he can make cannons, which makes him a little surprised, you must know that when the Jin Kingdom raised troops ten years ago, even smelting steel was extremely reluctant, and now he has the ability to cast cannons, so he can't help but pay attention to it.

However, it doesn't matter, compared with the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, there is at least two generations of generation difference between the artillery-making skills of various countries, and the cannons cast by the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce have an overwhelming advantage in terms of range, power and dexterity.

When Zhou Quan was discussing the reality of the Jin people with Yelu Yanxi, he didn't know that outside the hotel where he had placed Zhao Gou, Ande and Maode, three businessmen-like people were getting together.

It looked like they were discussing business, but in fact they were looking at the hostel.

"The prince and princess of the Song Kingdom are staying here? The defense is not tight, if you can break in and kill it, presumably Song Guo and Zhou Quan will completely turn against each other! A tall merchant said with a fierce look in his eyes.

"My lord, don't do anything stupid, this is the Five Nations City of Jeju Island, if you do such a thing, the port will be closed immediately, and ships will not be allowed to enter or leave, how can you get out at that time?" Another merchant hurriedly grabbed him, as if he was afraid that he would really do it.

"And Zhou Quan's temperament, how can he not investigate thoroughly, if he finds out that it was our Dajin, he will have to retaliate! Don't forget, we want Zhou Quan to be a watcher, not to pull him in! ”

When the three of them said this, the tall businessman looked restrained, and then sneered twice: "The emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is a fool, and Zhou Quan is also a fool." ”

On this point, the three of them are unanimous.

"As long as you get the land of the Great Song Dynasty, what else do you have to be afraid of...... Zhou Quan is a person, his eyes are in the eyes of money, and everything is easy to do with money......"

They whispered and secretly attacked Zhou Quan, but before they could say a few words, they saw a group of sergeants coming in a neat line, going straight to the door of the inn, and then began to be on guard. Although the faces of the three of them did not change, their hearts jumped.

"I said, how could Zhou Quan be so imprudent and give us a chance to take advantage of?" A merchant said in a low voice.

The tall merchant nodded, a look of jealousy on his face.

What they saw just now was Zhao Gou's own guards, and those guards didn't see that there were dozens of people, but they were all lax and slack, and the tall businessman felt that as long as he gave himself twenty people, it was enough to kill them without leaving a single piece of armor.

But when he was replaced by a chamber of commerce guard, he didn't dare to think so.

They had been working on the island for a long time, so they had seen the training of caravan guards. Even if you don't say that the guards of the Chamber of Commerce have the superiority of artillery, even if it is the hand-to-hand combat strength shown in simple training, I am afraid that the most elite Tiefutu in the Jin Kingdom will be inferior.

"But we can't do nothing...... We don't do it, but those outlaws can do it. After all, the tall businessman did not give up: "Those Japanese pirates, as long as they give money, they dare to do anything, and these guards can't keep an eye on them all the time!" (To be continued.) )
