The 'Bianliang Agreement' stipulated that an embassy should be set up in the capital between the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Yuan Dynasty, and personnel should be dispatched to be stationed there. Moreover, both sides have an obligation to protect the safety of each other's ambassadors.

The first Great Yuan ambassador to the Song State, Wu Li Buhuachi, felt a little aggrieved and asked his subordinates to dress him up. After finishing the work, I looked at the dressing mirror, and in the mirror was a small and very sturdy man. An indigo cardigan blouse, trousers of the same color, and the hem of the blouse is above the knee. The freshly washed hair is about two inches long, and it is combed for three or seven minutes.

Because the natural environment does not allow it, Mongolian men are not interested in tying hair. Dayuan Ambassador Uli Buhuachi looked at himself in the mirror, and his mood was complicated. As the first ambassador of the Great Yuan to the Song Kingdom, he never expected that he would be thrown a stone while walking on the street in Mongolian clothes.

The people of the Great Song Dynasty shouted 'Dog Tartar' and threw stones at him. The embassy guards tried their best to block it and were ready to fight back, but they were stopped by the Great Song police in flying fish suits. The police sent them back to the embassy and told the Mongols, 'It is illegal to kill people in the Great Song Dynasty, even if you are a mission, if you dare to kill, you will have to pay for your life.'"

Although Mongol, Uri Buhuachi is also considered to be quite proficient in Chinese culture. Seeing that Song Guo didn't care whether to send an envoy or not, he didn't want to make trouble. Moreover, Uri Buhuachi can also understand that after the Mongolian ravages, the people of Lin'an hated the Mongols very much.

Changed into a new style of Hanfu, and Uri took the guards in the same outfit to the street. The Han Chinese in Lin'an did not welcome the Mongols, and Uri Buhuachi, who was a Mongol, was full of interest in Lin'an. Even if the officials of the Song State did not invite him, Wuli Buhuachi had to fully understand the capital of the Great Song Dynasty.

Wearing a Hanfu, the Song people on the street paid no attention to Wuli Buhuachi. Like ordinary Song people, members of the Mongol mission walked the streets. Now Lin'an has finally recovered from the previous desolation, and there are more people on the streets. Originally, there were places to post notices on the streets of Lin'an, but now there are many notices posted on them, many of which are recruiting workers.

After looking at the recruitment notice for a while, Wu Li asked the local security guard to hire a donkey cart to walk around Lin'an City. All donkeys carry dung bags, so there are very few donkey dung eggs and the like on the road. Uri asked what to do with the donkey dung eggs in these dung pockets.

The driver's answer was that someone would take it out of the city. Uri had been in most of the capitals, and knew that the human waste in the city would be dried and sold near the city gates, and the stench near the city gates would be overwhelming. So he casually asked, "Which gate is it?" ”

"It's not the gates, it's outside the city." Again, the coachman emphasized.

The envoy of Dayuan, who was very interested in this, went over there to see, and was pulled to the east of the city by a donkey cart. Two or three miles outside the east of the city, there are rows of houses, which do not look like places for people to live. There is a smell in the air that is not strong enough, and it is indeed a place to dispose of excrement. Compared to most of the places where the manure is dried, the smell is completely incomparable.

I saw the carts coming and going, and all kinds of dirt and weeds were brought into the huts, and many things were brought out of the huts. When I looked closer, I saw that the things that had been shipped out were dirt that didn't smell bad, and there were vats of earthworms. These wriggling guys have made Uri's dense phobia attack.

However, when asked, Ambassador Uri Buhuachi heard that each commune in the Great Song Dynasty had several earthworm factories, some of which were thrown directly into the fields with grass and other things to feed fish and ducks, and some were processed into feed for donkeys and provided to various feedlots.

The guards of the Southern Song Dynasty originally thought that the Mongolian minister would go back after watching the excitement. However, he soon found out that something was not right, and when he heard that there was a breeding farm in the south, he saw that Ambassador Uri Buhuachi's eyes lit up, and he said in a firm tone: "I'm going to take a look!" ”

"It seems far away." The guard excused himself.

"No matter how far you go, you have to see it!" The ambassador's voice was full of sincerity. The people in each place have their own characteristics, just like the Han people want to plant something when they see the open land, and the Mongolians want to raise livestock from the heart. Even if you go over the mountains and mountains, you have to see it.

After some negotiations, in the end, the guards were unable to make it past the minister, and had to go to the nearest breeding farm with the minister. Seeing the field from afar, Uri instinctively felt that there must be a lot of livestock inside. Walking further on, you will hear the characteristic sound of a donkey. When I arrived at the gate of the feedlot, I saw a number of donkeys next to the trough under the shack inside. Those donkeys are tall, well-proportioned and square, with broad forequarters, a high head and neck, large eyes and mouths, a straight back and waist, round ribs, strong limbs, obvious joints, and round and firm hooves. There are two types of fur color: black with three powders (pink white around the nose, pink white around the eyes, and pink white under the abdomen) and black aconitum with a black body.

Then, Ambassador Uribuhuachi saw that there were several men dressed in white in the feedlot who were actually plucking donkeys......

When the envoy returned to the city, the whole person looked very bad. He can't be blamed for this, as modern mating is so simple and crude compared to the Mongolian model of allowing animals to mate freely. Livestock often have the problem of not being able to breed with a single target, and even if they do, the success rate of males is very low. Artificial insemination is the only way to improve the success rate.

After years of practice, animal husbandry experts in the Great Song Dynasty have embraced this model. However, the envoys of the Great Yuan did not have such knowledge, and the actions of the experts in the animal husbandry of the Great Song Dynasty seemed to him to be something that only a group of morally degraded barbarians could do. Discovering that the Great Song Dynasty turned out to be a country of perverts, Ambassador Uri Buhuachi felt angry and uneasy.

Stimulated, the Great Yuan Minister decided not to go out of the city again. He began to go in and out of places frequented by officials of the Great Song Dynasty. Previous efforts in this area have always hit a wall, and those Great Song officials did not like to deal with the Mongol ministers. Originally, the Minister of the Great Yuan still felt that the officials of the Song State were all weak chickens with no combat effectiveness, but now he further felt that the officials of the Great Song Dynasty were all perverted weak chickens with no combat effectiveness. Even if he can't fit into this group of weak chickens, Ambassador Uri Buhuachi doesn't feel like a special loss.

However, the attitude of the Lin'an officials changed very quickly, and Yang Liangjie, the uncle of the Great Song Dynasty, actually came to visit Wuli Buhuachi on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month. Looking at Yang Liangjie in casual clothes, Wu Li received him with a polite attitude. The two sat down, and Yang Liangjie was the first to speak, "I heard that Mongolia wants to exchange prisoners with the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

"There is such a thing." Uri replied.

After getting a definite answer, Yang Liangjie hurriedly continued, "Empress Dowager Yang's relatives were taken away, thinking of her relatives, the Empress Dowager often restlessly sleeps at night and doesn't know the taste. But I don't know how to get them back. ”

When Uri Buhuachi heard this, he was very proud in his heart. In the past, the Mongol invasion of the south was to plunder some ordinary people, and this southern expedition captured a large number of nobles of the Song Kingdom. Although Gorten and others were captured by the Song State, in terms of quantity, the number of valuable prisoners in the hands of the Mongols far exceeded that of the Song State.

"The exchange of captives must be reciprocal. Of course, Empress Dowager Yang's relatives will not be comparable to ordinary soldiers. You have to have 10,000 Mongolian households. "Uri didn't spend a lot of money and began to ask for a lot of money.

Yang Liangjie had no experience in dealing with the Mongols, and after hearing this condition, he seemed to respect the Yang family very much, and he did not dare to refuse immediately. He also inquired that the Song army captured no more than 10,000 Mongol soldiers, and the Great Song Dynasty had hundreds of thousands of captives.

I talked with Uri Buhuachi for a while, and Uri Buhuachi said that Mongolia had special hospitality for the nobles of the Great Song Dynasty. Empress Dowager Yang's family certainly belongs to the ranks of nobles. However, he didn't know much about who he was caught before this trip, and he had to send someone back to ask.

Yang Liangjie hurriedly said: "I'm still bothering the ambassador to figure out who is in the north of my Yang family." Our side will definitely exchange it for 10,000 households as soon as possible. ”

Leaving the Dayuan Embassy, Yang Liangjie immediately went to see the Empress Dowager Yang. After listening to what Yang Liangjie said, Empress Dowager Yang immediately came to her senses. When Empress Dowager Yang was canonized as Concubine Yang Shu, Song Duzong pushed 34 people including Yang family's relatives and Youjie to be promoted to errands. Now the Yang family has caused a big disaster, and many people have fallen. Empress Dowager Yang made up her mind, and she said to Yang Liangjie: "You are very right. When hurry up and replace the person back. ”

Yang Liangjie nodded again and again, "Queen Mother, as long as there are so many more than 30 people in my Yang family who are officials in the court, then where would Zhao Jiaren dare to be so disrespectful to the Queen Mother." ”

The next day, Zhao Jiaren talked about setting up a larger silk factory in Lin'an to strengthen overseas silk exports. Zhao Jiaren had his own ideas, and by taking advantage of this opportunity to expand the silk factory, he could start the construction of a new city in Lin'an.

This statement did not have much repercussions in the imperial court. Industrial policy has not been the highlight of the discussion in the Great Song Dynasty, and this large-scale establishment of state-owned enterprises is not a silk monopoly, and Zhao Jiaren does not let the imperial court pay money. So everybody wants to see the results rather than get involved early.

After Zhao Jiaren finished speaking, Empress Dowager Yang rarely took the initiative to speak. Just when everyone was waiting to hear Empress Dowager Yang's instructions on the development of the silk industry, what they heard was Empress Dowager Yang's request to speed up the exchange of prisoners. The ministers looked at each other with stunned expressions.

Not to mention whether it is appropriate to interrupt the issue of the imperial court at this time, there are too many problems involved in the exchange of prisoners. Moreover, Empress Dowager Yang also asked to exchange the Great Song clan and royal relatives first. The Great Song clan is naturally surnamed Zhao, and the royal relatives have lost the value of being exchanged because many people have defected to the enemy. Then the rest of the royal relatives are the relatives of the Empress Dowager Yang.

The spirits were all bright, and everyone looked at Taiwei Zhao. The most qualified to speak is Zhao Jiaren, and this time it is really a good show. Zhao Jiaren was not stumped, he replied bluntly: "Queen Mother, this matter is not a top priority, if it is delayed, Mongolia will probably ask for a lower price." ”

Empress Dowager Yang also had the same tranquility as before, and she replied decisively: "Taiwei." When our relatives were arrested, we were all anxious. There's really no way to wait. ”
