Chapter 143: Dynamics of the Parties
The verdict conference, or rather, since the Great Qin attacked Xichuan and Shanxi, the forces of all parties have not been calm.
Everyone has their own plans, everyone has their own actions, and the same thing is that everyone is looking at Daqin, and it seems that Daqin has become the focus of the world. It is not surprising that this sudden emergence of such a force and such rapid development and growth can be written in history. No other force in history has been able to grow so powerful with almost no foundation.
The Zhang family has become the focus of the study of all forces, this once raised people, in fact, it is also a small family in the middle of the road, why did it give birth to a demon like Zhang Hongbin, why did it become the overlord of one side of the force so quickly.
A hidden, powerful trading object, which is the only result they find. Zhang Hongbin accidentally got the right to trade with this object, so he continued to sell a lot of valuable, but sold at a reasonable price. Nowadays, these commodities have been fully popularized, and how many commodities are manufactured have not yet been cracked, in other words, until they are cracked, the Zhang family is completely monopolistic.
What business is more profitable than a monopoly?
However, everyone is investigating the trade partner behind Zhang Hongbin, but they have no clue. No one knows how they handed over to Zhang Hongbin and how they transported things to Zhang Hongbin. There is no trace at all, it is simply impossible to check, and it took three or four batches of people to check this result.
In recent days, Zhang Hongbin has continued to hold public meetings again and again, and Chongzhen and others have scoffed at this kind of meeting that ordinary people can attend, after all, this is completely a kind of expression of practicing identity. His Royal Highness the King of Qin, explaining to the people what he has done, isn't it a price drop?
At least, they can't do that. In their three views, all decisions and policies are decided by them, the social elites, and the people can obey them silently.
They didn't know that when they were still foolish people, Zhang Hongbin was already turning on the wisdom of the people. When the wisdom of the people reaches a certain level, the people will learn to think, and a people who can think will know how to distinguish between right and wrong, good and bad. The foolish way of the people will only provoke the resentment of the people, and the unequal policies will make them hate it. On the other hand, opening up the wisdom of the people can better let the people know what is called backbone and what is called integrity. What is called a country, what is called a nation. A nation that has opened the wisdom of the people is the most united, and a nation that has opened the wisdom of the people is the most powerful!
Zhang Hongbin needs to be a nation that will be strong forever, not a dynasty that can only last for more than 300 years.
Of course, now that he has become a privileged class, he doesn't mind maintaining his ** rule if he allows.
In the previous meeting, at most, the upper echelons of the Ming Dynasty would scold a few words, and the other forces would ridicule them a little.
However, at this sentencing meeting, Houjin jumped out.
"Your Royal Highness the King of Qin, aren't our Houjin and Your Excellency allies? I think the excuse used by Jin Shang in this sentence is of great significance to the friendship between our two sides. I hope that His Royal Highness King Qin can correct and even change the charges of Jin Shang. Sony, as the emissary of Houjin, came to protest.
He didn't say that Jin Shang was not guilty, and that if he said that he was not guilty, he would slap himself in the face. However, he wants to fight for a breath, after all, the third-party friendly forces that Houjin has cultivated with great difficulty, and the internal espionage system of the Ming Dynasty, which has been established with great difficulty, has now been destroyed by Zhang Hongbin.
Maybe they didn't realize why Zhang Hongbin would take Shanxi so quickly. Originally, according to their intentions, they would do everything possible to prevent Daqin from taking Shanxi, and even send troops for this purpose. Who would have thought that Zhang Hongbin would fight when he said that he would fight, and he buried the chess pieces early, so that Houjin won the entire Shanxi before he had time to react...... Oh, and there is also a Zezhou in the hands of the Ming Dynasty.
"Before Shanxi became my territory of Great Qin, the Jin merchants were already openly traitors under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, which has nothing to do with the friendship between our two sides, and even I can clearly tell you that even if we have established diplomatic relations, the crime of traitor will not change. As long as he really commits the crime of treason, then we will punish him severely. Then again, if there is any one of you who acts as a spy for me, and if you find out, you will not deal with him? Zhang Hongbin retorted playfully.
Now it is not before, before Daqin was afraid of fighting on two fronts, but now the basic industry has begun to improve one after another, and the productivity has been improved to a certain extent. Under such circumstances, even if it is a two-front battle, Zhang Hongbin is willing to fight. Not to mention that Houjin may not be able to go around so far to fight the Qin State.
"This ......" Sony was speechless, if it was really a traitor and was found out, it would be light to destroy the nine clans.
"Recently, it was found out that Houjin sent people to infiltrate Chang'an many times, intending to steal our firearms drawings and manufacturing processes. At the same time, it was also found that he had repeatedly poached craftsmen, and even threatened craftsmen with their families. At the same time, since the establishment of diplomatic relations, there have hardly been any large-scale transactions established. We have already begun to consider whether to break off the relationship with Houjin......" Zhang Hongbin leaned on his back and said nonchalantly.
"Please Your Royal Highness King Qin don't do this...... "Sonny was sweating profusely, if he really broke off his friendship, his career would have come to an end," the first batch of materials needed has begun to be prepared, and they will be shipped soon. Not long ago, we also captured a lot of Korean slave girls, and we will also send them to your land with a group of Han slaves. Our interaction is meaningful and valuable! ”
Nonsense, if diplomatic relations are severed, without the support of Jin merchants, the large-scale materials of Houjin will not be replenished, and when the time comes, let alone fight Daqin, it will be okay to go south to fight Daming. At that time, you can really only nest in one acre and three points of land in Liaodong, guarding the ice and snow of Changbai Mountain.
"In this way, I look forward to further transactions between the two of us. As long as you can pay for what you should pay equally, we guarantee that we can sell you tea, iron ingots and even salt and other materials! However, don't do anything that shouldn't be done, or that affects our friendship, or I can't guarantee how things will turn out! Zhang Hongbin nodded.
Sony could only nod his head in agreement at the moment, and muttered in his heart: Jin merchants selling forbidden goods are betraying the country, so what does it mean for you to take the initiative to sell?
But he didn't know that in Zhang Hongbin's eyes, the Jin merchants selling these materials privately was a typical smuggling. And Daqin sells it himself, that is, the trade between the state and the state quality inspection, of course, Houjin is not a country at the moment, at most it is a larger tribal collection. The materials sold are either knockoffs from supermarkets or materials that pose no threat to Daqin. For example, iron ingots, even if they are all cast into artillery, may be able to deal with Da Ming, but against Da Qin, it is purely to find death.
The two sides discussed it for a while, and they were satisfied.
At the same time, Chongzhen in Beijing was overjoyed by the firearms he had obtained in front of him. It is said that these firearms were used by the front-line troops of the Qin army, and they were extremely powerful. Although there are no drawings, as long as there is a physical object, take it apart and study it well, and the level of firearms in Daming can be upgraded to a new level!
Thinking that Da Ming brought advanced firearms to kill the Quartet, Chongzhen wanted to say that he was unhappy, it was definitely false.
It's just that I thought that my treasury really had no money, and I suddenly gloomy again, so I could only let the craftsmen try to imitate it, and large-scale manufacturing would not be decided until next year's tax payment. I can't squeeze out anything for the time being.
Now in addition to the hostile force of Daqin, the Liukou in the Ming Dynasty has almost died down, and there will inevitably be a one-year recuperation period. When the time comes, the taxes will be handed in, and the country will have money, and when it has money, it will be able to build a large-scale armed force. Maybe when the time comes, the Jin Tartars will conquer the puppet Qin Dynasty in the west, the Indochina Peninsula in the south, and the Japanese slaves in the east. The world is big, only the Ming is the biggest!
Whenever YY came here, Chongzhen felt a little excited in his heart.
As for the rogues, the rogues who had died down managed to get another sum of money, and secretly sent it to Shaanxi to buy weapons and equipment. Maybe it's the next year, maybe it's the third year, and they'll rise again. Moreover, it will be more ferocious and more difficult to resist!
Yes, since there can be a great Qin in the world, why don't we have a share?
The prince will have a kind of Xiangning, this emperor takes turns, and he can't say that he will be able to take his turn in the year after next!
All the rogues are like wounded beasts, silently mending their wounds.
