Another reason why Ximen Qing was determined to reform the currency system was that he couldn't do without reform. Even if he wanted to be content with the status quo and wait for death, with the increasing prosperity of domestic commerce and the gradual expansion of foreign trade transactions, the copper coins left over from the Song Dynasty on the market became more and more insufficient.

The Western Xia, Liao, and even the emerging Daikin were all absorbing copper coins from the Central Plains to supplement their own monetary systems, and overseas Goryeo and Wa kingdoms also had a special affection for Chinese copper coins, just as the people of the Celestial Empire, especially the servants of the people, were enthusiastic about the dollar and the euro.

Jiang Jing, the minister of the Ministry of Commerce, also reflected that the cost of transportation has begun to implicitly restrict the expansion of the trade circle, because the copper money is too large and occupies too much space, and a large proportion of transportation in bulk commodity transactions is spent on the transfer of payment, which will inevitably affect the efficiency of the sale of the goods themselves. Although Ximenqing put forward a solution to the problem of setting up banks all over the country, Jiang Jing did not dare to be rash, saying that the iron had to be hard by itself, and there was no sufficient supply of silver, and the more banks opened, the faster they would die.

Ximenqing was also dumbfounded, he knew that being the head of state is not only a high-salary, high-ranking and high-ranking people, but behind this is clearly high-risk hypertension and high-risk high-altitude work, and the death rate of brain cells is the highest.

Just as Ximen Qingzhen was racking his brains and worrying about how to deal with the money shortage, a group of foreigners came across the sea, and this group of foreigners was not ordinary maritime merchants, they had a special political mission—they were the envoys sent by the Goryeo State to the Chinese Federation.

The current Goryeo belongs to the rule of the Yi Dynasty, and the king Yi Qiandeok has the year name Huixiang Daeyeong. Goryeo originally came from the vassal state of China in ancient times, but after the rise of the Liao State, the Song Dynasty was powerless, and Goryeo changed its appearance and worshiped the Liao State as the suzerain.

Goryeo has worshiped the Liao State as the boss for many years, but this time the Jurchens, who have been suppressed by the Liao State, suddenly flourished, and fought several battles before and after, and beat out the original form of the paper tiger of the Liao State.

This Baozhou City was originally the old land of Goryeo, but it was forcibly occupied by the Liao people, and they didn't say rent, nor did they say borrow, so they were so white-eyed and confused, and the Goryeo people didn't dare to say anything, lest they make the Liao unhappy, and even the capital of Goryeo Kaijing was occupied, so what should I do? Therefore, for generations, the gourd came over.

But in the spring of 1116, the Liao State was in turmoil, Wu Yong started in Liaodong, the Liao people were too busy to take care of themselves, and the Goryeo king Li Qiande saw that he could not lose the opportunity, and immediately took Baozhou City back, and his wishful thinking in his heart was - if the Liao State could not come back, then this ancestral old city was a symbol of the recovery of my great Li Dynasty; Even if the Liao State came back later, it was not afraid, but it was said that Goryeo loved the suzerainty and was unyielding to the Jurchens, so he sent troops to help defend Baozhou City and defend the land for the Great Liao - this business of drought and flood protection can be done.

Who knew that the envoy of the Liao State had not yet come, and the envoy of the Jin State came first. As soon as the envoy of the Jin Kingdom spoke, he said: "The entire territory of Liaodong belongs to our Dajin Kingdom!" How can Baozhou be an exception? You Gaoli took advantage of the fire to rob, not pure masters, don't talk nonsense, first hand over Baozhou to us Dajin! ”

Goryeo can't afford to provoke Da Liao, and Dajin, who beat Da Liao to the ground, naturally can't be provoked even more. But can you spit out the meat that has entered your mouth? Therefore, the king of Goryeo argued with reason, turned out ancient maps and seals, and proved that Baoju had been an inseparable part of Goryeo's territory since ancient times, and then politely asked Emperor Daejin to examine it in detail.

The envoy of the Jin Kingdom ate a lot of ginseng from Goryeo, and he was embarrassed to embarrass the people too much, so he pouted and returned to the Jin Kingdom and handed it over to Wanyan Aguta to make a personal decision. At this time, Wanyan Aguda first gained Liaodong, and it was the time to recuperate and recuperate, and he had no intention of making another enemy, so he no longer raised the issue of the ownership of Baozhou, but only sent an envoy to Goryeo and ordered the king of Goryeo to pay tribute to Dajin.

The king of Goryeo, Li Gandeok, restored his ancestral Baozhou, as if he felt that he was already the lord of Zhongxing, how could he casually pay tribute to the barbaric Jurchens? But if you don't pay tribute, if the Jurchens call, it's really hard to resist, what can you do?

Li Qiande, the lord of Zhongxing, ascended to the heights, and as a result, he saw a large ship regiment flying the flag of the Chinese Federation coming from Jianghua Bay - mainly merchant ships and escorted by warships, and the scale was extremely prosperous. A bright light suddenly flashed in Li Qiande's heart—yes! Once upon a time, the suzerainty of my Great Goryeo was the Chinese Celestial Empire! Due to the unfortunate reason that the widow is unemployed, from the Liao country, and now the Liao country is about to breathe, it is the time for us to return to the roots!

After making up his mind, Li Qiande, the lord of Zhongxing, discussed with the ministers, saying that the Jin State was too pressing, so why should we pay tribute to them? Although the Liao State is abolished, we must pay tribute to the former lord of China! Although the regime in the Central Plains has changed dynasties now, it is still the Chinese who have ascended the throne and sat in the palace! That Sanqi son Ximen Qing is the reincarnation of Tianxing, and it is said that he has the talent to pass through the heavens and latitudes, and the skill of exorcising gods and ghosts, and he will be able to keep my great Goryeo safe! I don't eat the fresh fish of the Chinese Federation, but I gnaw on the sand of the Jurchen, which is not done by a wise man!

As soon as they heard this, Minister Kim, Minister Park, Minister Choi, and so on all cheered, and even slapped "My Lord Shengming". Therefore, without further ado, Li Qiande immediately ordered his subordinates to organize an envoy group to take this group of merchant ships of the Chinese Federation to pay tribute to the Celestial Empire, and at the same time seek refuge.

Ready-made messengers have. In the past, although Goryeo worshiped the Liao State as the boss, but it was still disconnected from the Song Dynasty, and there were many scholars in Goryeo who traveled thousands of miles to the Song Dynasty to take the Jinshi examination, and the emperor of the Song Dynasty also looked at these Goryeo students differently, and always gave them the first place. When the Song Dynasty died, these Korean students and gentlemen did not stand under the dangerous wall, and they slipped back to Goryeo from the chaos of war and chaos one after another, all beards and tails, and there was no shortage of one - today I heard that His Majesty the King was going to send someone to the new Chinese dynasty, and these people rushed to form a group and impassionedly asked for the order, saying that they were willing to continue to work hard for the great cause of the traditional friendship between the Chinese and Korean peoples!

Li Qiande, the master of Zhongxing, sighed: "Look at my big Goryeo boy - what a liver and gallbladder this is!" What blood! What patriotism! With these good men here, am I still worried about the revitalization of Goryeo? ”

So, the envoy group was formed in half a day, and then His Majesty the King sent people to pull a few carts of ginseng to the ship group of the Chinese Federation to bribe and ask for a boat.

Chinese businessmen face the Korean ginseng that comes up for free, and they don't accept it, which is a commercial gift! And Lang Libai, the general of the navy who led the escort of the military ship, jumped Zhang Shun like a snake and scorpion, and all of them returned - of course he wanted to make tea and drink it with a Korean stick for his father every day, but as soon as these ginseng were collected, it was a bribe, and in case it was revealed, Ximenqing would be the first to cut off his father's head!

As early as Liangshan, when Ximenqing had a reunion dinner for the New Year every year, he always chanted to the brothers: "The pocket should be shallow!" The pocket should be shallow! The law is unforgiving, I don't want to make my brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts ruined, so please all fulfill me! ”

Ximenqing said this with a smile, but no one dared to take Ximenqing's words as a joke. They rebelled as thieves, just to live a rich life, but now everyone is holding the original shares of Liangshan, dividends every month, all of them are rich people, as long as their children and grandchildren grow up, they may be able to become the head of the Chinese Federation in the future! If life is so nourishing, why risk the life of his family to be corrupt?

So Zhang Shun refused the Goryeo sticks sent to the door - but when he turned around, he bought a lot of them at a high price - and it was not that he couldn't afford them!

Although there are no bribes, things still have to be done. Zhang Shun happily agreed to the request of the Goryeo envoys to take a boat, and he felt a deep pride in his heart - the new country was first established, and the four Yi guests were served, which was the glory of every federal citizen!

So the ship regiment full of glory of the Chinese Federation sailed away from the capital of Goryeo, Kaegyeong, with the Goryeo envoy group, and returned to the mouth of Banqiao Town, Dengzhou. After landing on the shore, Zhang Shun immediately sent someone to inform Wang Shizhong, the prefect of Dengzhou.

This Wang Shizhong Wang Governor's Mansion was an old official of the previous dynasty, because he knew the current affairs, and before the death of the Song Dynasty, he had an agreement with Liangshan, so he was able to retain it after the establishment of the new country. He himself still has a certain amount of talent, and he keeps Dengzhou in good order, and the commercial accounts of the sea route are also clear and clear, which saves Jiang Jing, a god operator, a lot of heart, so he is very valued by the Federation.

This kind of intelligent and capable minister, Jiang Jing really wants to transfer him to the Ministry of Commerce to help him, and Wang Shizhong also wants to take a step higher, but sadly, Ximen Qing is not allowed!

Ximenqing also had no choice - if Wang Shizhong left, Dengzhou really couldn't find a second person who was good at sea commerce to sit in town, so he had to wronged Wang Shizhong and gave him a salary and a knight, but he was not promoted for the time being. Ximenqing personally said to Wang Shizhong, you hurry up and train your successor, when someone can be competent, when will you enter the central ministries and commissions.

Wang Shizhong heard that he still had a bright future, so he put his heart on his shoulders. Others are afraid that the apprentices of the church will starve to death of the master, but Wang Shizhong hopes that some of his subordinates will learn all their skills in an instant. Today, he was instructing in detail the two good seedlings in his photo-one is Ma Zheng, a native of Taozhou, and the other is his son Wang Jiu-when he was studying maritime politics, he suddenly received a notice from the general of the navy, Lang Libai, Zhang Shun - the Goryeo State sent tribute!

As soon as he heard this letter, where did Wang Shi dare to slacken? hurriedly instructed Ma Zheng and Wang Hao to do everything, and sent the Goryeo envoy to Juye City. This is exactly what it is:

It was said that people were far away from the sky, and they saw overseas to Malaysia. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
