Chapter 269: Making War Money

In particular, the four big cities of Liaodong, Xincheng, Buyeo and Beisha have now become four commercial cities. When Goguryeo first invited Murowei to go south, he promised Buyeo Fortress to the Murowei people. And Chen Kefu also used Fuyu City as a gift to marry the daughter of Adina, the patriarch of the Khitan Yaoran clan, but after Chen Kefu annihilated 200,000 troops and captured Gao Yuan, Adina instead led people to withdraw from Fuyu City.

Chen Kefu's blood in Liaodong flowed like a river, and he pacified Goguryeo so quickly, which made the great patriarch of Adina a a little frightened. In order for Chen Kefu to help him completely defeat the Dahe clan, and for the sake of the Khitan throne, Adina took the initiative to return Buyeo City to Chen Kefu.

The war in the neighborhood continues, but there are more business opportunities in the war. Chen Kefu pacified Goguryeo, and the biggest business opportunity was slavery. Many of the older or younger slaves of the Goguryeo tribe were simply eliminated by Chen Kefu through the newly established slave markets in the two large cities of Buyeo and Liaodong.

The population, cattle, sheep and horses plundered by the Khitan Nine Divisions and the Sumo Water Department in the war also entered the market at this time. Between the major tribes, through the middle of the Buyeo and Liaodong City, they have traded, each needing. In particular, after Chen Kefu occupied Liaodong and had a sufficient population, he opened a lot of workshops, basically producing all kinds of gadgets. Anyway, there are a large number of craftsmen in the army, in addition to those craftsmen of weapons, armor, gunpowder, etc., others such as craftsmen from all walks of life, Chen Kefu simply set up workshops with enough slaves to work, and the workshops can produce a large number of things every day...... What's more important is that this trade route is protected by Chen Kefu's Liaodong Army, so there is no need to worry about safety at all. If they trade directly in the city of Beisha, then they will only have to pay a small inbound tax and a royalty on the goods. If they want to continue north to the Liaoxi provinces, or south to Pyongyang, Ji, and Silla, then they only need to pay a certain protection fee, and the Liaodong army along the way will escort them.

Many merchants were willing to venture into the Khitan, or Mòhé, because there was a war going on there, and although the chariot front line was dangerous, there were also many business opportunities and resources. As long as the Chebi or Mòhé people conquer a tribe of the enemy, they can directly come forward and collect all kinds of goods...... These commodities range from people to cattle, sheep and horses. Doing business on such a front line, they pay very little, but the profit is beyond imagination.

Beisha City was a port of entry and exit, from which trade from the Central Plains and Liaodong was carried out. And Fuyu City is a trading place for the tribes of western Liaoning, where countless tribes of western Liaoning are trading, as long as you have money, you can buy anything here.

The Liaodong City in the Liaohe Central Plains, which is located between Beisha in the south and Fuyu City in the north, is a transit station and a large population city. Not only can the caravans from the south to the north pass through the Liao River, but also the northern caravans that come by land from the same north and western Liaoxi will also pass through here, and the southern Jisilla will also pass through here. This is a place where the east, west, north and south meet, and this is still Chen Kefu's base camp, with high walls and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses garrisoned. Therefore, Liaodong City is also a big consumption city, and many merchants come to Liaodong to buy or rent shops.

Liaodong also has an important role, that is, those merchants who come from the south to the north, especially those large caravans and merchants, all set up transit warehouses in Liaodong City or Xincheng, and most of the store goods in each city are hoarded here. It's safe and convenient.

No one thought that there would be such a big business opportunity in Liaodong, and even said that this kind of hot trade in Liaodong is a bit false and even deformed. But when you think about it, there is actually a reason. All over the Central Plains, there were peasant rebellions, and not only did the surname be unhappy. These businesses are also not easy to do, traffic jams, business routes are impassable, and what is more critical is that in the troubled times, everyone does not have much spending power.

The sudden pacification of Liaodong is equivalent to the sudden emergence of a new continent. There is no war and chaos here, and because those Liaodong soldiers have received countless rewards before, all of them have more money in their pockets. Again, these hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians who stayed in Tuntian, Liaodong, plus their equally huge number of family members, this place is simply full of business opportunities. Especially after the pacification of Liaodong, facing the western Liaoxi tribes, these places, in the past, could only pass through the Turks from Daibei, Youzhou and other places, and then all the way to the north, in order to trade with them, but now it is equivalent to directly breaking through the two gates of the Turks and Goguryeo, and they can do business directly. ,

The opening of Liaodong and Liaoxi is like the opening of a new Silk Road. Countless goods have hit the place where they are sold, and they can also get more goods directly from Liaodong and Liaoxi at a smaller price.

Horses, cattle and sheep, women, slaves, furs, these items are all needed in the Central Plains.

When the western Liaoning tribes received Chen Kefu's remote invitation to join the alliance, no one refused. For the Khitan mòhé and Silla, they had already paid the cost before, and now it was time to harvest.

And for people such as Murowei, Ogashi, Ji, and Heishui Juju, they made the wrong bet before,

Now is the only time there is a chance to change the ending. At this time, if Chen Ke returned to the army, no matter how much he sent, they would not be able to withstand such a result.

The Goguryeo War has ended, and the general trend of the entire Liaodong has been divided. They either choose again, reconcile with the Great Sui, and repair the relationship. Or, you can only wait for the Great Sui to destroy them one by one like they destroyed Goguryeo.

The forces of all parties quickly stepped up, and in less than a month, they had all gathered in Liaodong City.

In the first month of Liaodong, it is still in the cold winter, dripping into ice, and even the entire Liaohe River has been covered with thick ice. On the bell tower of Liaodong City, a soldier accurately rang the bell to tell the time for the surname in the city. The distant sound of the bell was heard for a long time, startling a nest of birds.

The inner city of Liaodong City is the warehouse storage place for important materials of the Liaodong Army, and it is also the secret artisan battalion and officer residence in the city. In addition to the almost 50,000 troops stationed in the city, there are 50,000 craftsmen and 20,000 people who stayed in the city of Liaodong, and in addition, there are about 50,000 Liao surnames.

In addition, recently, the families of the soldiers of the Oak Army and the craftsmen of the people who are not far away have rushed to Liaodong from all over the Central Plains from the floating sea in Shandong.

Although only a small part of them are coming now, according to Chen Kefu's estimate, in less than half a year, Liaodong City will add at least 200,000 family members, plus the floating population of those caravans every day, the entire Liaodong City will definitely not be able to accommodate so many people by then, and can only be dispersed to various nearby cities.

Now less than half of the 50,000 soldiers and horses in the city have gone to Liuhe City, and a large battalion has been built more than ten miles south of the city, and 10,000 soldiers and horses have been stationed there.

Liaodong, which has fallen countless middle atomic brothers, and Liaodong, which once made countless Central Plains people tremble and panic when they hear these two words, has suddenly become a place that everyone yearns for after the nine industries of the great cause have passed.
