Chapter 4 Eight Points of Wealth

"Can I sum it up like that?" Yun Zheng couldn't stand Yesu's strange narrative and had to summarize it by himself, and when he saw Yesu nodding in agreement, he opened his mouth and said.

"There is a war in the country of Cochin, the people are displaced, many people have gone into the forest to find food, there are more and more such people, there is a lack of food in the forest, only you Khmer people are relatively rich, so people are looking for your trouble.

You couldn't keep the weapons you had collected before, so you exchanged them for food, and then you couldn't keep the food you exchanged, so you planned to take the food to live in the Great Song Dynasty.

As a result, the old man Yu Jing didn't agree, and he couldn't wipe his face, so he revealed the news of Tokyo's lack of food to you, and asked you to come to Tokyo to find me and see if there was any chance, right? You Khmers are also a strong race, how did you fall to this point? ”

Yesu sighed and said: "Yunhou help, the eyes of people who have no food are green, the Khmers can't fight with them, we won, at most we help people reduce some people who eat, people win, whether it is the Khmer who died in battle, or the Khmer people who were captured alive by others will become food, you say, how to fight such a battle?" ”

Yun Zheng smiled: "The soft are afraid of the hard, and the hard are afraid of dying, this truth is not easy for eternity!" You just say, what exactly do you want? I always felt like you came with a powerful purpose.

You Khmer people don't know how to farm, you can only hunt, and if you do business, I'm afraid you're the only one who can do business, and if you die, your people will starve to death, tell me what you want. ”

Yesu nodded, "That's true, so I want to discuss with Yu Jing about selling the ruined Wuchao City to my people as a place to live." The Song people couldn't hold on to that city, and half of the city wall collapsed, and the Great Song garrison in Wuchao City had retreated to the canyon fortress, which was a new fortress built by Yu Jing, and many of the stones on it were taken from Wuchao City. ”

Yu Jing's Guangnan army evacuated Wuchao City Yun Zheng knew about it, and the construction of the canyon fortress was built by Yun Zheng, Nong Zhigao didn't know how to calculate it back then, in order to connect the Great Song Dynasty and Jiaozhi, Wuchao City was built at the lowest place, and there were many heavy rains in Guangnan. Such a city is destined to be a tragedy. Washed away by flash floods all day long, even the strongest castle could not stand for long.

Last autumn, an unprecedented flash flood washed away the northern walls of Wuchao City, and Yu Jing wrote that there was little value in rebuilding it. That's why a fortress was built at the mouth of the canyon.

"Are you planning to rebuild the city of the Black Nest? Have you built it? ”

Yesu shook his head and said, "Naturally, I can't afford to build it. But why are we building? The Great Song is richer than us. Naturally, they won't come and rob us, as long as the walls to the north are still there, and the ropeway is still there. We will be able to stop those hungry Jiaozhi people, not only can we make a living in the forest, but we can also be regarded as holding a passage to make a fortune there, and all the goods in and out of Guangyuan will definitely pass through GuΓ² Wuchao City, since the army has passed through the Lin Mang passage, that road has completely become a trade road......"

Yun Zheng looked at Yesu suspiciously, he actually saw the shadow of the fat Cui Da from Yesu's face, since the disbandment of the Wusheng Army, Cui Da's logistics battalion has become a huge business, continuing to seek benefits for the generals of the Wusheng Army, Yun Zheng naturally occupies the majority of the inside, now listening to Yesu say this, Yun Zheng completely understands why Yesu wants to give the grain to himself, if there is no funding from Shuzhong businessmen, what ability does Yesu have to transport thirty boats of rice and grain to Tokyo, not counting loss, The cost of the boat alone exceeds the value of those grains, and it is not the ruined Wuchao City that Yesu wants, but the merchants of Shuzhong who Cui Da want this trade road connecting Jiaozhi!

Wuchao City has been abandoned, and even that city is still outside the border of the Great Song Dynasty, if Yesu wants that city, just go and occupy it, of course, this is under the premise that the Guangnan Army of the Great Song Dynasty does not drive them away, these people want their own endorsement, the generals and colonels of the Guangnan Army are their own subordinates, as long as they say hello, naturally no one will look for their trouble.

This trade road worth 10,000 gold will also become the world of merchants, and Yun Zheng can imagine how prosperous and dark that city will be in the future......

This city will be a vampire attached to the country of Cochin, and he will never stop if he does not suck the last drop of blood in the war, and now he understands why Yesu came to find him, not Cui Da who came to find him, this bastard actually closed his mouth tightly when he gave the New Year's gift and didn't say a word to himself, he wanted to be a thief, but he didn't want to bear the reputation of a thief! In this way, even if there is trouble, it is a trouble between the Khmer and the Jiaozhi people, and it has nothing to do with the Great Song Dynasty, this is simply a copy of the Nong Zhigao incident!

Yun Zheng shook his head and sighed, "The plotter is big!" ”

Yesu said with a smile: "I don't know if Yunhou is willing to end, if you are not the backbone, no one can benefit from it." ”

"How much can I earn?"

"Forty percent! You know, no one dares to take your share! ”

"Sue sΓΉ Cui Da them, I want at least fifty percent! This fifty percent is just the income of Wuchao City, as for the other income, I will not interfere! ”

Seeing that Yun Zheng handed him a green jade pendant, Ye Su took it, put it in his arms, and then waved his hand at Yun Zheng and said, "You go to sleep, I'm going to read." ”

Yun Zheng returned to the back house and pushed open his door, and found that there were two pot-bellied women lying on his bed, seeing that he had come in, the two of them poked their heads out of the tent together to look, listening to the drums outside, it was already two watches, these two mothers-in-law didn't even sleep, and there was not a single maid in the house who was waiting.

Sitting on the edge of the round table and taking a sip of tea, Yun Zheng paused his teacup and said, "In the future, you will interfere less in the affairs of the south, do you think that if you do something, it will have nothing to do with me?" What childishness! In the end, people didn't come to me and ask for an endorsement.

The Yun family has enough money, there is no need to accumulate more, I will use the income from the south to reorganize the army, and the young army will not succeed without a stable source of wealth, I will instruct Hua Niang to do these things and not take the family's account books. ”

Seeing that her husband was angry, the two mothers-in-law immediately shrank their heads into the tent, muttering for a while and Lu Qingqing said: "Husband, it is indeed a concubine, didn't Cui Da bring his wife Wang over during the New Year?" It was the Wang family who discussed it with the concubine, and the concubine thought it was an ordinary business, but you were busy discussing military strategy with Di Shuai at that time, so I didn't tell you. ”

"Woman's view! What kind of ordinary business, this is simply a noose on the throat of the country of Jiaozhi, the country of Jiaozhi is in turmoil, and the princes from all over the country are flocking, this is the best opportunity to make a fortune.

It is said that it is better to be a peaceful dog, not to be a troubled world, and the same is true for objects when it comes to war, treasures will also turn into mud, such wealth is stained with blood, and the Yun family is unlucky, and it is very suitable to use it in the army, so I don't let this money and food go to the Yun family's account books, not because I don't trust you, but because the family is not suitable for these things. ”

Yun Zheng found that he was not suitable to be the lord of the family, if he was the emperor, he would definitely cut down all the most loyal courtiers, leaving all the people who were slapping horses.

The two big-bellied women just came over and rubbed their small belly against their own mouths, and their hearts were going to teach their wives a lesson, and their thoughts suddenly disappeared.

The person who was teased by others was tall and tall, but there was no way to vent, and he lay straight on the bed until the sky was white, and he barely fell asleep.

Lu Qingqing and Ge Qiuyan got up very early, today is the day when the Yun family raises their eyebrows and dare not delay, the fierce Lu Qingqing went to Yun Er and Su Shi's room early in the morning to dig these three guys out of the quilt, ignoring their wails and hurried out of the house in the carriage, today we must be full of Kaifeng fools to see the wisdom of the Yun family!

The city gate didn't open too early, and the city gate official who took out the pomp and circumstance of the lady didn't pay attention to it, and the Yun family's fierce family wanted to beat the city gate official who stood up and sneered at the lady, but was stopped by Lu Qingqing, and the Yun family's convoy was waiting at the city gate.

A green oil incense car slowly stopped behind the Yun family's convoy, and a teenage girl walked to the front of the general and asked, "Is this the convoy of the Marquis of Wenxin's mansion?" ”

The family general was angry in his stomach, but he was not good at being angry with a girl, so he said casually: "Exactly, my wife is in the car." ”

The girl said respectfully: "Please reply to the general, and say that Yan, the wife of Fubi, please see Mrs. Lu." ”

Lu Qingqing heard that Fu Bi's wife wanted to see him, it was very strange, Dao Zuo only needed to greet each other twice, why was it so solemn? However, the Yan family should not be taken lightly, her father is the former Xiangguo Yan Shu, and her husband Fu Bi is also an important minister, although he is a little unlucky in Qinzhou now, but he is not a person who is bullied, her husband used to have a bad time with Fu Bi in Fengxiang Mansion, why did he come to meet at this time?

The generals immediately surrounded a clearing at the gate of the city with a blue curtain, arranged simple tables and chairs, and prepared tea, and then told the girl that Mrs. Yan had invited Mrs. Yan to tea!

The green oil incense car drove over slowly, two rows of domestic servants and maids formed a human wall on both sides of the carriage, Lu Qingqing stood on the mouth of the cloth curtain to greet him, only to see a woman in Tsing Yi get down from the car, not very old, but in her thirties, her face is not powdered, and the green silk on her head is covered with a silver hairpin.

Yan Shu has been rich and noble all his life, not only his poems have been praised as rich words, Lu Qingqing can't help but think of his husband's evaluation of Yan Shu, "Yan Shu occupies eight points of wealth in the world", not only is he rich, but the seven sons and nephews in the family are also famous, and Yan Jidao is even more famous as a Jingshi, not to mention Fan Zhongyan, Wang Anshi, Kong Daofu, Han Qi, and Ouyang Xiu all became famous ministers of the Great Song Dynasty because of his recommendation.

Yan is Yan Shu's daughter, since people are invited to see, no matter what, they can't be contemptuous, Lu Qingqing took two steps forward to greet Yan and smiled: "Welcome distinguished guests on the side of the avenue, Lu Qingqing is rude!" (To be continued......)
