500,000 yuan to Zhao Zongji is a venture capital.

Chen Ke is a ruthless character, such a person dares to think and dare to do if it sounds good, but if it is ugly, it is bold.

Although his historical knowledge is not rich, he at least knows that the emperor of the Song Dynasty after Renzong is Zhao Zongshi, who later changed his name to Zhao Shu. It is said that knowing this, ordinary people will be eager to hug their thighs, as long as their IQ is above the horizontal line, they can at least ensure the glory and wealth of a lifetime. Isn't this exactly what Chen Ke is pursuing?

But he didn't, because among the emperors of the Song Dynasty, he was the most tired of Zhao Shu. Although Zhao Zongshi is now known as a virtuous king, there are a large number of shameless or untruthful literati who boast about him, and his reputation is as good as a saint. But this can only make Chen Ke despise him even more.

The memory from his previous life let Chen Ke know his true face - looking at Zhao Shu's future reign for three and a half years, it can be summed up in five words: 'The Current Record of Beasts' After ascending the throne, Zhao Shu's original form was revealed, wolf-hearted, and shameless. Not only did he have no gratitude to Emperor Renzong, who gave him the throne, but he also vented the sky-high resentment of the two generations of father and son against the official father and son in various forms.

When the people were grieving and the mountains and rivers were discolored, he pretended to be crazy and stupid in front of the spirit of Emperor Renzong, because he couldn't cry, and he wanted to hide his ecstasy; During the period of filial piety, he drove the daughter of Emperor Renzong out of the palace, and then let his sister and daughter move in. At the end of his reign, he was unbridled with his family, and almost every younger brother was crowned king, while Emperor Renzong's widow and daughter were almost so embarrassed that they fell into poverty.

What's even more odious is that he is also cold and contemptuous to his titular mother, the Empress Dowager Cao, and extremely humiliated, so that the old lady can hardly gain a foothold in the palace. He also refused to call Emperor Renzong his father. And insisted on enshrined his father as the emperor's exam. For this reason, there was a vigorous controversy. A righteous man and a gentleman despise him as a person. They all opened their eyes for Emperor Renzong, but they were all deposed by him one by one, and in just three and a half years, the court and the central government were empty. The virtuous minister went to the country and returned to his hometown, and the villain took the opportunity to take the position......

Of course. To evaluate an emperor, we must look at his political achievements. It's a pity that Zhao Zongshi didn't do anything. Xu is retribution. After three years of tossing and turning, he died. His only contribution to the Song Dynasty was to give birth to Song Shenzong. It's a pity that that is the culprit of the Song Dynasty's demise. Not to mention, the two sons of Shenzong, Zhezong and Huizong......

It is said that the Northern Song Dynasty was tossed to death by the four emperors of the three generations of these ancestors. Not an exaggeration at all, it couldn't be worse. Why not try a different emperor?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chen Ke hated Zhao Zongshi, as long as he thought of praising this person's stinky feet, he felt disgusted. Moreover, his several actions in the capital also completely offended Zhao Zongshi's family, and when he became emperor in the future, he would definitely not be able to escape the tragic ending.

Now it seems that if you want to be safe and worry-free in the second half of your life, it is not enough to just take the Jinshi examination, and you have to make Zhao Zongshi unable to be the emperor.

In Chen Ke's view, this throne is not Zhao Zongshi, at least at this time, the official family has no intention of passing on the throne to him.

In this case, why don't you help your brother Zhao Zongji, the prince and the general, Ning You, who said that the crown will not fall on his head? What's more, Zhao Zongshi's situation is even worse than him...... The Song Dynasty did not kill scholars, as long as Chen Ke was admitted to the Jinshi, he could always save his life.

But there is no ancestral precept not to kill the clan.

This is a venture capital, between licking Zhao Zongshi** and taking a risk, Chen Ke will definitely choose the latter.

But as long as it is an investment, there will be failures. Once he fails, there may be no place for him in the Great Song Dynasty, so Chen Ke wants to use another 500,000 yuan to run a retreat for his family......

Three days later, at dusk, Chen Ke and Song Duanping, wearing straight jackets, hats, and gifts, went out officially. went out on the street and called two rickshaws...... At this time, rickshaws were no different from rickshaws in later generations...... Sitting in the car, I went all the way to the east and went in the direction of Taiping Bridge.

In the golden autumn season, the fragrance of chrysanthemums in the city is intoxicating, the Taiping Bridge area is bustling, and all kinds of beautiful selling sound competitions are like one after another, and there are also mixed with the laughter of children chasing and fighting, playing hide and seek, and setting off firecrackers. Clearly, the market has recovered from the disaster and is thriving again.

The rickshaw stopped on the street near the Taiping Bridge, Chen Ke and Song Duanping down, took two steps inside, and found that these were different from other places...... The streets are much quieter, the shops are neat and orderly, with blue and white striped banners and 'leaf' graphics everywhere.

The pedestrians on the street, although they are wearing Hanfu such as straight shirts and Taoist robes, are mostly high-nosed, deep-eyed and curly-haired, and they all wear a small blue hat on their heads.

This is the settlement area that Emperor Taizu assigned to the people of Yici Leye, Blue Hat Street.

Although they retain their unique imprint, Yici Leye people have lived in Bianjing for a hundred years, and they have worked very hard to integrate into the environment of the Great Song Dynasty.

The Jews were accustomed to a few Han Chinese walking in, and they would not make a fuss. However, Chen Ke was tall and eye-catching, and soon attracted the attention of a Kunlun slave.

The Kunlun slave walked over quickly, bowed deeply to Chen Ke, and said in stiff Chinese: "May I ask if the official is surnamed Chen?" ”

"Not bad." Chen Ke nodded: "How do you know that my surname is Chen?" ”

"My master's surname is Bai." Kunlun Nu said respectfully: "It is said that the big officials are superior, so they rashly stepped forward to ask." ”

"But the white shopkeeper of the Eastern Capital Jiaozi Shop?" Chen Ke smiled.

"Exactly." Kunlun Nu led Chen Ke and the two to a decent house in the alley.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bai Yaming's residence is a typical Chinese-style residence, which is full of lights and guests at the moment.

Hearing that Chen Ke was coming, Bai Yaming greeted him at the door, Chen Ke smiled and hugged his fists and said, "Congratulations to Brother Bai for having a noble son." ”

"Thank you, thank you," Bai Yaming sang with a beaming face: "San Lang and Brother Song can come, the cold house is shining, please come inside." ”

Taking the two of them inside, Bai Yaming whispered: "Today, our rabbi and Levi are here, and after the ceremony, they promised to talk to you." ”

"Brother Bai is bothered." Chen Ke smiled slightly and said, "Now, let's concentrate and pray for the little man of the Bai family." ”

Bai Yaming smiled happily, stretched out his hand and said, "Please!" ”

Entering the hall, it is still a pure Chinese decoration, but when you get to the inner hall, it is a different scene, only to see a thick carpet on the ground, the guests sit on the ground, there are a few low tables in front of them, there are grapes, pomegranates and other fruits, but only provide water in clay pots.

There were many guests who came to watch the ceremony, and arranged for Chen Ke and Song Duanping to sit down, Bai Yaming called his younger brother and asked him to accompany the two distinguished guests, so he confessed and went to greet others.

Bai Yaming's younger brother is called Bai Yiju, sixteen or seventeen years old, with black and thick curly hair, and a pair of smart big eyes. He inherited the warmth and shrewdness of the Jews, and after greeting them, he introduced the two of them to the ceremony later, so that they could be mentally prepared so as not to be frightened.

As soon as Chen Ke came to the capital, he got acquainted with Bai Yaming, but the contact with Yici Leye progressed slowly. However, Chen Ke can also understand that such a calamitous nation, which has been persecuted and exiled for thousands of years, will naturally develop a cautious and safety-first character. In particular, his own words revealed the way they made a fortune, which aroused the vigilance of these people.

For half a year, Chen Ke only maintained courtesy with Bai Yaming, and the two had dinner together a few times and talked about the way of wealth a few times, but they were all in a restaurant outside, but they had never visited here. A few days ago, Chen Ke received an invitation from Bai Yaming, saying that his young son was holding a teaching ceremony, and he respectfully invited him to come to watch the ceremony at this time.

Because of the Jewish boss in his previous life, Chen Ke knew a lot about their customs, and knew that eight days after the boy was born, a solemn religious ceremony would be held, and relatives and friends would be invited to watch the ceremony. If there is no change in customs, this seems to be a sign of a change in their attitude towards themselves.

The Jews were punctual, and before the unitary hour, the guests were gathered together, and the ceremony began punctually at the unitary hour.

After informing the guests that they were free to do so, everyone's eyes fell on the white-haired old man in the first place, wearing a white melon skin hat on his head, wearing a white robe, and pressing one hand on a thick book, with a solemn face.

The hall was silent, and the guests were all kneeling on the thick carpet with a reverent face.

Chen Ke and a few other non-believers also held their breath and silenced, lest they disturb this solemn ceremony.

The old man closed his eyes slightly, and spat out words that were very different from Chinese, and the tone was short and subdued, which was exactly what Chen Ke had heard in his previous life...... Although he did not know Hebrew, he was familiar with these prayers.

The old man recited a sentence, and as soon as the people recited it, the hall reverberated with the Hebrew language, and the sound of pious prayer seemed to echo with a sense of sacredness.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Song Duanping couldn't help but ask quietly.

Chen Ke whispered to translate for him:

"Hear, O Israelites! Jehovah is our God and the only Lord.

Love Jehovah your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

Remember to heart all that I command you today, and teach your children diligently,

Whether you're sitting at home, walking on the road, lying down, getting up, talk about it;

and thou shalt tie it on thy hand for a sign, and put it on thy forehead for scripture;

and write it on the doorposts of thy houses, and on the gates of thy cities......"
