――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Liao Shengzong thought about it, this strange minister of the Song Dynasty in front of him, with this virtue, was actually still Li Bu Shangshu, and the little kid in the south was really fooling around. But if I don't agree to play disarmament games with him, does the kid still want to pay the bill? No, he is threatening me with a red fruit land, even if the Song Dynasty is aggrieved, it is not bad for me to pay hundreds of thousands of taels!

But since he wants to play disarmament, let's play with him, anyway, those soldiers of mine are all on the horse for the soldiers, and dismount for the people, there is no pressure, you want to cut as much as you want, you name it. When that little kid has repaired all the roads in the country, it will be convenient for me to receive them again, so why not do it!

Thinking of this, Liao Shengzong took a sip of wine, moistened his throat and said, "I haven't seen it yet, although your emperor is young, he has great ambitions!" As for the matter of disarmament, I agreed in principle, and told your emperor on my behalf, saying that I supported him very much, let him let go of play, and repair the road as soon as possible. As for how many troops he wants to cut, tell me the number, and I will play well with him. ”

"Your Majesty, my emperor hopes to be able to gradually disarm within ten years, and finally only retain half of the army, do you think this is feasible?"

"No problem, it's decided, we'll sign a treaty later!" Anyway, for the Liao State, it's just a change of place to station, and if it doesn't work, you can send them back to grazing, which is not a problem. Therefore, Liao Shengzong responded very simply: "However, you see that I am so upright, do you emperor mean it?" After all, this disarmament also requires a lot of resettlement fees! ”

"What do you mean?" Sun Fu asked knowingly.

"Sun Aiqing, do you want to add more coins this year, so that I can cooperate with your emperor to disarm!" The implication is that if you want me to play with you little kid, you have to pay some wages.

"This ...... This, the minister really can't be the master! Sun Fu pretended to be embarrassed, and it was a while to be able to delay for a while, but seeing the sunny and cloudy face of Liao Shengzong, he immediately changed his words: "But the minister thinks of another way, can you see if it is feasible?" ”

"Tell me about it!" It doesn't matter what you do, just give money.

"The situation is like this, our emperor has been spending money a little fiercely recently, and the treasury is empty, but there are many rich people among the people......"

"Do you emperor want to rob money?" Liao Shengzong asked in surprise.

"Uh...... Your Majesty, can you listen to the ministers first? "Sun Fu was also kneeling by the logic of Liao Shengzong, but it's right to think about it, people's habit is to rob, you can forgive.

"You say, you say!" Liao Shengzong smiled embarrassedly, he was still too anxious.

"It is said that these rich people in the private sector are more ...... How so? In the words of our emperor, these rich people are willful. They actually spent money to buy wool from the hands of Tibet, you think! Isn't there a lot of wool in your country, there is a lot to do here! ”

"Just say it! Our Da Liao people don't have as many fancy intestines as you. ”

"My Great Song Dynasty is a civilized country, and I must not do anything to rob the people of their money, but the minister can ask my emperor to issue an edict, so that the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty can buy your country's wool, and everything will be fine!"

"That's just as well! But how do I know how much the merchants can buy? What if my people bring the wool, and you don't want it? "Liao Shengzong also thinks that this method is good, anyway, it's useless to take the wool themselves, as long as they are willing to pay, why not! The crux of the problem is the amount of money, it must be written clearly in black and white, but it can't be shaken by others, money is a trivial matter, and face is a major matter.

Sun Fu pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty, do you think this will work, the minister will guarantee on behalf of the Great Song Dynasty, let's discuss the purchase volume and price for a year, and we can also expand the existing scale of discussion, so that more things in your country can be sold for money, I don't know what you think?" ”

"I think it's a good note!" Liao Shengzong himself is too old to be old, and he doesn't have the enterprising spirit of his youth, and being able to "grab money" so peacefully can be said to be his greatest wish. He thought about it, and Sun Fu's proposal seemed to be quite good for his country, so he agreed, and instructed his subordinates to sign a series of trade agreements with the Song Dynasty mission at a later date.

This agreement involves a wide range of contents, except for weapons and other restrictive things, other products are almost all traded, after the agreement comes into effect, Song Liao will build a large trade stack at the junction of the Song-Liao border and the Bohai Sea. This trade stack is jointly guarded by troops from both sides and is responsible for maintaining law and order, and bilateral trade will be conducted here regularly every month of the year.

After finishing this errand with great difficulty, half of the stone in Sun Fu's heart finally fell, and the other half had to wait until he returned to Beijing to know. Thinking of the sage's instructions when he left, he was very bottomless in his heart, who knows if the sage's whimsical ideas can be successful, and it is also that these uneducated people in the Liao Kingdom don't know that there is such a thing as a trade surplus, otherwise he really can't complete it. Of course, he selectively forgot that he didn't understand this in the first place.

Packing his bags, Sun Fu embarked on the way home with a nervous mood, thinking that his crisis would not start until he returned to the capital, but he didn't know that the crisis had quietly arrived......

――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Third Highness, the goal has set off, presumably this will have left Shangjing." A guy dressed in black and still masked bent down and whispered in Li Chengwei's ear.

"Which way are they going?"

"Back to Your Highness, our people saw them come out of the south gate."

"Okay, let's pack up and go out from the west gate with a swagger, in a few days, you guys are doing it, work neatly, don't leave any handles, of course, you can also leave some 'handles', understand?"

"It's Your Highness, your subordinates understand, you must make the Song Dynasty think that the people of the Liao Kingdom did it, I heard that the princes of the Liao Kingdom have not stopped recently, can we take advantage of it?"

"Well, that's good! Go for it! ”

"It's Your Highness, your subordinates are retiring!"

Not long after Sun Fu and the others left, Li Chengwei also bid farewell to Liao Shengzong and left Shangjing with great fanfare, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was leaving.

At the same time, there was also a group of Liao people, riding horses galloping away from the south gate......

After more than ten days, Sun Fu and his entourage, under the protection of dozens of Liao soldiers, were finally about to walk to Yongzhou in Liao.

Mt. Konoha is not high, and from a distance it looks like the pyramids of the Egyptians. There is a large mountain in the northwest, and two smaller ones in the southeast, both of which are triangular. Standing on the top of Konoha Mountain, looking north, the green mountains are faint, the white clouds are long, a large river, the east and west are connected, and it stretches endlessly. The Sila Murong River comes from the horizon, misty and mighty. Looking south of Konoha Mountain, it is known as the Horqin Sandy Land of 800 miles of Hanhai, and the sand dunes are undulating and endless. This landform has a unique geographical structure, it is a desert, but there is no shortage of water, and the sand dunes are intertwined with lakes and oases.

In fact, this is nothing, the most important thing is that this mountain has another identity - the birthplace of the Khitan people. According to the "History of Liao", "According to legend, there are gods and men riding white horses, from the Mayu Mountain (now Ma'anshan, Karaqin Banner) floating river to the east, and there is a heavenly woman driving a green ox from the flat pine forest (now southwest of the source of the Xila Murong River in Keshiketeng Banner) to the Huang River. To Konoha Mountain, the two rivers merged, met as spouses, and gave birth to eight sons. Later, the clan gradually flourished and was divided into eight divisions. ”。 There are Khitan ancestor temples and bodhisattva halls in Muye Mountain, and there are white-clothed Guanyin statues, Shenlu Temple, and places to worship the gods of the Liaohe River.

Muye Mountain is not only the ancestral mountain of the Khitan people, but also the place where the Khitan people worship the sky, and it is the sacred place of the "unity of heaven and man" in the Liao Dynasty. Finally, I had the opportunity to pass through this place on a business trip, and of course those escorted Liao ** soldiers wanted to take this opportunity to go and pay their respects, not to mention that Yelu Suha, who was escorted this time, was a member of the Liao royal family, although his status was very low, but he could not stop people's yearning for his birthplace.

So Yelu Suha found an opportunity to discuss with Sun Fu, and let the mission stay temporarily for one night, and they went to worship and came back soon, without delaying the trip. Sun Fu thought about it, this is also a reasonable thing, and besides, there is nothing abnormal along the way, and it is good to sell face to others, so he agreed.

Watching the Liao soldiers galloping towards Muye Mountain, Sun Fu had no choice but to arrange for everyone to camp on the spot, which is backed by Mayu Mountain and facing the Xilamulun River, and the environment is good. In addition to a few civil officials of the Ministry of Rites headed by Sun Fu, as well as two squads of forbidden troops and four or five subordinates led by Shen Zhongyuan, everyone worked together and it didn't take long to set up this temporary camp.

According to the military regulations, as long as they are stationed, they must send sentry agents, even if they are abroad, they cannot be changed, and there are forbidden army sentry posts on the bright side, as well as the secret sentry of the Jinyi Guard, and it is thanks to their caution that they have survived a catastrophe.

"Boss, those Song people have set up camp at the foot of the mountain, and the escorted sergeants have also left and headed towards Konoha Mountain, it looks like they are going to stay here for a while." On Ma Meng Mountain, a guy with a big beard and a round waist, with two big axes on his waist, strode into the cottage hall and said excitedly to their leader.

"Do you see clearly?" The big leader looked mild-mannered, but he had an aura that was not angry but mighty, and the strong man was as well-behaved as a cat in front of him.

"The subordinates really see it, they are thirty or forty people now, just those cowardly Song people, we won't solve them with any effort."

"Okay then, you take a hundred brothers with you, don't let any fish slip through the net, and act quickly." For these dozens of Song people, the big boss didn't look inside, and he didn't do anything in front, but he didn't want to clash head-on with the escort sergeant.

This big boss is not a simple character, his real name is not known, as if he came here all of a sudden, and quickly annexed the nearby troubles, and became the biggest horse thief in Ma Mengshan, with nearly a thousand men under his command, because he has a nose like an eagle, and his methods are cruel and scheming, everyone privately calls him "Black-hearted Eagle".

To say that Ma Mengshan is not far from Shangjing, it is only five or six hundred miles, and the emperor of the Liao State has to pass through this place every year to pay homage to Muye Mountain, so it is impossible for him to operate such a big force here. But there are many things in this world that are beyond common sense and do exist, and the reason why this is the case is because there are people in the court, and this person's background is not small.

However, just a few days ago, a group of guys who were hiding their heads and tails found him and paid a lot of money to let him do the Song State Mission. This has to be put in the past, the eagles didn't bother to pay attention to them, but now the situation is different, Liao Shengzong doesn't have a few years to live, if this country is still so calm, it is very unfavorable to his master, maybe he can use this plan to muddy the waters, presumably those faceless guys are also fighting this idea, but I don't know where they are? I have to find a time to remind my master.

The bearded man didn't have as much thought as his boss, he would do whatever the boss shouted, as long as he had money to make, he would blink his eyes when he robbed the emperor. He soon called up more than a hundred sturdy brothers, rode on tall horses, and galloped down the mountain, and the noisy sound startled the birds in the forest to dare not return to their nests for a long time......
