Logistics Tent.

Everyone in the room was talking.

Lu Chengfeng picked up the wine glass and toasted: "Senior Brother Guo, I am here, firstly, to congratulate my junior brother and sister on tying the knot, and secondly, to discuss a business with you." ”

Guo Jing picked up his wine glass, a little puzzled: "Now that the Song Dynasty and the Great Mongolia Kingdom are completely separated by the Jin Dynasty, it was relatively simple to trade without a war before, but now they are all fighting, how can the Song merchants come over?" ”

Lu Chengfeng said with a smile: "Senior Brother Guo doesn't know, recently our Lu family, the beggar gang, and the Yangzhou Cheng family have set up a chamber of commerce, and we have got ten large sea vessels, each of which can carry 5,000 materials (that is, 300 tons).

With the sea vessels, we can depart directly from Yangzhou, and after about one to two months, we will dock in Goryeo, and then unload the supplies there for trading.

As for the Goryeo side, Senior Brother Guo, I remember that there are several fiefs of the host kings in your Great Mongolia that are close to Goryeo, Senior Brother, you pull them together, such a huge benefit, I believe those few are very willing to cooperate.

In the grassland, tea, ironware, grain, porcelain, silk, these are the specialties of the Great Song Dynasty, no one should refuse. And the juniors can also use this to build their own alliances. ”

Guo Jing nodded, since there was a fief, Huang Rong personally went to inspect it, and also talked to him about the various problems existing in the fief.

Although his fiefdom is large, it is all plains, and he can only graze his cattle, so if there is any snowstorm, it is likely that he will lose all his money in a year. And because of the reasons of many Song people in the fiefdom, in order to take care of their health, Guo Jing did not dare to let them do too heavy work.

It would be great if it could trade with the Great Song Dynasty. In this way, they can buy furs, wool, etc. from other tribes, let those women handle them by hand, and then sell them for food, gold and silver, and then use these grains, gold and silver for furs, forming a positive income back and forth transaction.

"No problem." Guo Jing nodded in agreement.

Lu Chengfeng smiled and cooperated with Senior Brother Guo, firstly, to make money, and secondly, of course, to build a good relationship.

It is often said: small wealth depends on diligence, and big wealth depends on morality, which is all. Everyone knows that small wealth depends on skill, big wealth depends on skill, and windfall depends on courage.

The greatest benefit can be obtained by taking refuge in others when they are starting, and of course, there is also a lot of risk.

But if you don't gamble, how can you win big?

Although the Jin Kingdom blocked the attack of the Great Mongolian Kingdom this time, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the once glorious Dajin was already crumbling, and Senior Brother Guo had the support of three peerless masters behind him, and he also mastered the secret art of life extension.

The odds are huge!

Afterwards, several people continued to discuss some details, mainly to determine the landing port first, and only Guo Jing had the ability and face in this regard.

After the negotiation was over, Xin Qiji smiled and said, "Brother Guo, I came here this time in addition to peace talks, there is another important matter. ”

Guo Jing still has a lot of respect for Lord Xin: "Lord Xin, you say." ”

"That's the case, I see that Brother Guo now has many subordinates, most of the people are Song people, and the area is vast, but there is no special official management, and some trivial things can be troubled by you.

And I have a few friends who are old, but they still have the ability, thinking that they can do something for the Song people, and I hope that Brother Guo will be successful. ”

When Guo Jing heard this, he was very happy.

Since the Great Khan gave him a fief, the leisurely life of daily practice is gone. Some girls even went to him to report that someone had been peeking at the bath, but they couldn't find the thief.

There are also all kinds of things that steal and rob things, which makes him very annoyed.

"Lord Xin, this is great, you give me the list, and I will send someone to take them over." Guo Jing said with a smile.

Xin Qiji smiled: "Brother Guo, some of them may be a little old and have some inconveniences, and they need you to recuperate before they can come over." As he spoke, he took a list from his bosom and handed it over.

Guo Jing took it and took a look.

The first on the list, Lu You, successively served as the chief secretary of Ningde County, Fuzhou, the official deleted by the Imperial Decree, the general judge of Longxing Mansion, the Ministry of Rites Langzhong and the review officer of the Record Academy, Baozhang Pavilion to be systematized, civil and military all-rounder, well-governed, age: eighty-three years old.

Seeing the age of Lu You in the back, Guo Jing was stunned for a moment and fell into deep thought.

He suspected that he seemed to have been fooled by this old fellow.

.....

King's Tent.

Wan Yankang smiled and left, obviously satisfied with both sides of the negotiation with the Great Mongolia.

Tuo Lei asked curiously: "Father Khan, will we really not fight the Jin Dynasty next year?" ”

Temujin nodded: "After all, after receiving heavy gifts from others, I, Genghis Khan, will be difficult to chase after me, so we will fight again the year after tomorrow!" ”

Tow Mine: ......

"Great Khan, the Golden Knife and the Horse have something to see." The guards came to report.

"Xuan."

Guo Jing came in, and several people talked for a long time, and Temujin laughed at Tuolei: "You see, this fate always favors good people. If there is no place to fight next year, let's go to Goryeo and build a port. ”

Temujin had a considerable interest in trade. Because he asked his staff to calculate for themselves, he fought for life and death all year round, and grabbed so many things, if there was a big defeat, the whole tribe would be in a state of collapse for several years.

But trade is different, buy low and sell high, and there are several times or more than ten times the income when lying down, which is too comfortable!

……

November 3, 1207.

Han Yan was arranging in the mansion, and he was determined to reorganize his troops to fight against the Jin soldiers.

Even if the golden man asks for money, he even wants his head, and he will never allow it.

Moreover, according to intelligence, the Jin Dynasty at this time, as judged by Xin Qiji, was on the eve of "chaos and death". The last defeat was only due to the traitors and internal discord of the Song Dynasty, and the inappropriate deployment allowed the Jin soldiers to invade Huainan.

In fact, the Jin Dynasty no longer had the ability to continue fighting, but only threatened and blackmailed the Song Dynasty, so they began to think about peace talks.

"Han Xiang, Your Majesty summons you." An attendant came to report.

Han Yan frowned, the most taboo thing for the officials of the Great Song Dynasty was to lead the troops, because they were under the suspicion of the emperor almost all the time, and every time they led the troops to convince the officials, they had to work hard.

Even if they send troops and fight outside, the generals who lead the troops will receive inquiries from the officials from time to time, for fear that they will rebel.

However, the official family edict must go.

After a while, with the help of the maid, Han Yan's stomach was dressed up.

"My lord, you are really a dragon now." The maid boasted.

Han Yan smiled, since he began to subdue the lost ground, he also felt that he had energy every day. A lost battle, tens of thousands of people died, with the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty, it is easy to make a comeback!

The world is unpredictable.

On the way to the court, 'Xia Zhen', the official of the Chinese army and the former secretary of the palace, suddenly attacked, and put Han Yan's stomach in the wall of Yujin Garden, ignoring his angry reprimand and cutting off his head.

A generation of power ministers has come to an end.

Han Yan's stomach was assassinated, and the military and political power began to be manipulated by Empress Yang and Shi Miyuan.

Subsequently, they executed Han Yan's important staff: Su Shidan. In full compliance with the requirements of the Jin Dynasty, he cut off the heads of Han Yan and Su Shidan, and sent the envoy Wang Zheng (nan) to the Jin Dynasty to show the public.

and all accepted the conditions put forward by the Jin dynasty: the border between the two countries remained the same as before; Later, Song used his nephew and uncle to pay for the ceremony; The new year coins are 300,000 silver and silk each; Song Na rewarded the master with three million taels of silver and gold.

】

In the eyes of the officials of the Song Dynasty, everyone's life once again returned to the harmony and stability of the past, and everything was fine.

The next day, above the court, Zhao Kuo, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, smiled at the minister: "Isn't it a good thing to recover, but it's not enough." ”

……

Yuezhou Shanyin (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang), thatched house.

Lu You coughed while listening to his son read the letters sent by his colleagues in Lin'an, and he was always at ease about state affairs.

"Han Xiang's army was defeated, and Lord Xin was sent to the Great Mongolia to ask for rescuers...... Recently, Han Xiang was captured and killed, and his head was sent to Jin Guo to show the public. The official family drafted to agree to the contract of the Jin Dynasty, to be commensurate with the uncle and nephew, and to levy taxes on the people in order to pay the annual tribute......"

After listening to the content of the letter, Lu You's face flushed, and it became more and more ugly, and his cough became more and more intense.

"Ahem, ahem~"

"Dad, are you alright?" The fifth son, Lu Zibu, hurriedly stepped forward and patted his back.

After a while, Lu You vomited a mouthful of blood before he felt more comfortable, and then burst into tears.

"Dad, don't think too much, isn't Da Song still dead? We still have a chance to make a comeback and reclaim the rivers and mountains! Lu Zibu comforted.

Lu You glanced at him, but he couldn't speak.

"Take a pen and paper, I say, you remember."

"Yes."

Waiting for his son to polish the ink, Lu You sighed, his eyes were cloudy, and he coughed twice from time to time, word by word, and said: "Dead Yuan knows that everything is empty,

But the sadness is not the same in Kyushu.

Wang Shi set the day of the Central Plains in the north,

The family sacrifice is not forgotten. ”

"Wu'er, remember, after I die, if I recover the Northland, you must tell me!"

"Yes!" Lu Zibu held back his tears and choked up.

"Dad, there is a Liqing Chamber of Commerce, saying that there is a letter from Lord Xin in the north, and they brought the messenger." The sixth son, 'Lu Ziyu', rushed up and said.

When Lu You heard the name of Master Xin, his expression moved, and he hurriedly said, "Let, cough cough, let him in." ”

Lu Ziyu hesitated a little, but began to open the door, and the messenger was put in, which was a one-man tall eagle.

Lu You was stunned: ???

"Uh~" The eagle screamed, put down the box in his mouth, and then went out, spreading his wings and soaring into the sky.

A young man came in the back, it was Lu Guanying.

"Lord Lu, there is a letter from Master Xin to you in the box, as well as a treasure medicine."

Lu You coughed again: "Wuzi, open it." ”

Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu You's face was ruddy, and he was already able to walk on the ground, and after reading Xin Qiji's letter to him back and forth, he finally made up his mind.

There is not much time left for the people of the Great Song Dynasty!

"Five sons, six sons, prepare your luggage, next spring, we will go to Mongolia with the Liqing Chamber of Commerce!" Lu You commanded.

Sons: ???

More than 4,000 miles! Dad, say you're joking!

At the same time, all over the Southern Song Dynasty, depressed or several old men who were dying of old age received a strange letter. Some are sent by eagles, and some are white withered, which is extremely supernatural.

In December, Xin Qiji had just returned to the Huaixi border, and a messenger came to the Holy Decree.

"Mukden Carrier...... Xin Qiji was appointed as the 'Privy Council Commander' to command the military. ”

At this time, the head of the former 'Privy Council' Su Shidan had been placed on the wall of the Jin people, suspected of buying and selling officials, and his home was even raided. The total valuation of the copy is about 100,000 taels of gold, which can be said to be a huge corruption.

Xin Qiji heard the will, with an inexplicable smile on his face, and took the holy decree with both hands: "Weichen, take the decree." ”

"Master Xin, congratulations!" The eunuch congratulated.

Xin Qiji smiled, took out a silver ingot from his arms and handed it over: "You have also worked hard." ”

"Ouch, Lord Xin, you're so atmospheric. That slave wishes Lord Xin a long life and a hundred years old, and a marquis! The eunuch said happily.

"Hahaha~ borrow your auspicious words." Xin Qiji laughed.

……

The following year, spring.

With the arrival of some knowledgeable and insightful people in Dameng, Guo Jing's fiefdom became more and more prosperous.

With the development of commerce, Guo Jing's people no longer have to think about grazing, and directly buy cattle, sheep and horses with grain, iron tools, etc. in various tribes, and then sell them to the Jin Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty, which is a huge benefit.

But according to Lu You, you can't let the people be idle, laziness is contagious, and when a person lies down, he will lie down one after another. Eventually, the entire tribe was defeated.

Therefore, after discussion, Guo Jing divided his people into two parts: one part was to be professional soldiers, training in cavalry and archery, and the other part was to build a city wall, preparing to find a suitable place to build a simple city relying on mountains and water flows.

According to the plan of Lu You and others, even if Mongolia goes south in the future, as long as there is a garrison in this city, it can become a thorn deep in the grassland, which is convenient for ruling here.

As for who is convenient for ruling here, Lu You and the others tacitly agreed not to speak.

Guo Jing felt that these people were reasonable, so he let them do it, anyway, he was very self-aware and stupid, and some things he participated in would make it worse. Just use your mental power to confirm that people are not lying to him.

……

Guo Jing's fiefdom is south of the Wulegu River, and most of the area is flat, with lush water and grass, and is a natural pasture.

In spring, the snow melts, everything revives, and the spring breeze grazes white clouds in the blue sky.

Guo Jing lay on the grass on the hillside, looking at his fiefdom under the hillside.

The white mushroom-like yurts are dotted on the green grassland one by one, the beautiful song of the shepherd girl echoes in the grassland, and there are many people in the distance who are under the command of some old people.

In a few months, the Liqing Chamber of Commerce will send glutinous rice and other materials, and the construction of the outer city wall will officially begin.

"Brother Jing, the roast sheep is ready, come and eat." Huang Rong, who had already coiled her hair, came over and shouted.

Guo Jing jumped up and waited in front of the oven, where a sheep had been half dried by the little yellow cat.

Hua Zheng, who came back from collecting wild vegetables, was immediately furious and hugged the little yellow cat into his arms.

"Brother Le! Can you learn from Guo Jing, even if he has a lot of money and two wives, he still forgets to sleep and eat every day and insists on practicing and exercising, and his strength has been growing.

As for you, you know how to eat every day! ”

"Yes, Brother Le, if you don't take the time to exercise, don't eat all day long." Huang Rong also persuaded.

Since the two of them housekeepers, because they received a lot of gifts when they got married, they let go of the little yellow cat to eat. As a result, when I recently counted the statistics, I found that if Brother Le continued to eat like this, they would have to beg at the end of the year.

Miao Le lay in Hua Zheng's increasingly towering arms and squinted his eyes, falling asleep in a second.

Don't listen or don't listen, Wang Ba recites the scriptures!

"Dongdong Dong~" At this moment, he suddenly heard a wonderful voice in Hua Zheng's heart, which was the origin of life.

"Meow~" The little yellow cat jumped into Huang Rong's arms and yelled at Guo Jing.

When Guo Jing heard this, he was immediately surprised: "Hua Zheng, we have a child!" ”

Huang Rong is a little envious, her kung fu is not bad.

The little yellow cat is preparing to change its position and sleep comfortably, with one ear and dumbfounded.

There's another little shovel officer.

Will he eat less in the future?
