"Huang Shangshu, this is a little heart from the top and bottom of our Jianzhou Jurchens to Your Majesty...... Including 10,000 taels of gold, five buckets of Dongzhu, 20 quintals of ginseng, 10 pieces of Haidongqing, and 20 pieces of tiger skins. Ah Ha rubbed his hands and introduced the tribute to Huang Guan, and the whole person looked like he was in pain.

It's really not easy to get together so many good things.

And the Ming Dynasty also said that there is no need to pay too much tribute, and even if you pay tribute, there will not be so many rewards. So let's trade honestly, Daming doesn't want to suffer.

But this time, the Jianzhou Jurchen was willing and took the initiative to send it.

"Huang Shangshu, do you think you can give us a higher score for Jianzhou Wei?"

Huang Guan, who was stroking the tiger skin, hurriedly withdrew his hand and said in a low voice: "This matter is under the management of the Pingzhang Academy, and it is not within the scope of the Ministry of Rites. And that's just a society under the jurisdiction of Heishoin, so you don't have to take it too seriously. ”

Aha was in a hurry, "If you don't take it seriously, you can't do it!" We heard that we were going to sell weapons and crossbows to North Korea, but if we didn't, we would suffer a big loss. ”

Huang Guan was stunned, he did have plans to sell weapons to North Korea, but it was just to deal with the Japanese state, and it had nothing to do with the Jurchen tribes.

"You're still too worried."

Ah Hachu gritted his teeth and said simply: "Huang Shangshu, we are all rough people, and we don't understand that." Anyway, North Korea has weapons and armor, and we want it too. I also inquired about the matter of the Pingzhang Temple, and it was your son-in-law who made it. You will be gracious and help to say something, your own son-in-law, can you still listen to you? Unless Huang Shangshu looks down on us. ”

Aha snorted: "I've heard, you are the most learned in the Ming Dynasty, don't you want money too?" Looking back, we have our own filial piety, and we can't shorten you. ”

Huang Guan couldn't stand it, and couldn't stand the straightforwardness of this old iron.

He also had to sigh that the cheap son-in-law's hand was really a bit effective.

"I really can't control this matter, but in this way, I'll help you introduce you and talk to Dingguo Gong directly."

Then Huang Guan hurriedly sent people to Xu Jingchang's side.

At this time, Xu Jingchang was taking care of his wife and had already resigned from a lot of government affairs.

But when he heard that the commander of Jianzhou Wei had sent Aha out, he was still very polite and served hot tea.

"Cao Guogong wrote to me and told me about your Jianzhou Jurchen, I am also quite moved, we can form allies, become a family, benefit the people, and have immeasurable merits!"

Ah Ha stiffened his face, looked at Xu Jingchang seriously, and then said: "Dingguo Gong, we are rough people, we don't have so many ghosts to think about, just say directly, you said that we are a family, but how can you sell North Korean weapons and not sell us Jurchen?" Also, I've heard about your ...... for us. What civilization does not score high, what do you mean? Do you look down on us? ”

Xu Jingchang smiled faintly, "Aha is the commander, in fact, this matter is also very understandable, you Jurchens and Han people are old acquaintances, but there are some differences between us." From a civilizational point of view, you are still in the hunting stage. In terms of kinship, it is also difficult to go further. Frankly, I've rated you as high as I can. ”

Aha snorted: "But no matter what, we can't be lower than North Korea, anyway, we are just not convinced." ”

Xu Jingchang's smile did not decrease, "Aha is the commander, there is a rule for everything, you are so tough, not only will it not be beneficial, but it will also affect your evaluation." If you're serious about improving your ratings, it's not impossible. ”

Aha was stunned, and suddenly smiled, "I knew it was like this...... Dingguo Gong, you say, how much does it cost, I am willing to spend it! ”

Xu Jingchang laughed, "Just rush to the commander to say this, and your level of civilization will go up...... It's a pity that this thing is not so simple. If you give money, you will have a high rating, and if you don't give money, you will be low, so what authority is there? In fact, what you should be thinking about is how to improve the rating. ”

"Can this still be improved?" Aha was taken aback, "What are you going to do?" ”

Xu Jingchang smiled: "This is very easy...... You see, the criteria I have given are kinship and civilization...... The so-called kinship relationship not only refers to blood closeness, but also refers to similar customs and the same customs. And these contents of customs are connected with civilization. In fact, these two standards are to put it bluntly, that is, the closer you are to Daming, the closer the relationship, the smaller the difference, and the higher the score. ”

"What to say!" Xu Jingchang thought for a while and said with a smile: "Just like the two of us, my name is Xu Jingchang, and your name is Ah Ha Chu." You don't have a last name, do you? If you can change a name similar to Da Ming, it will bring the relationship closer all of a sudden, don't you say? ”

Aha stared at Xu Jingchang stupidly, what kind of idea is this, let me change my name?

"I don't know how to change it! I've been using it for decades, and I don't want to change it. ”

Xu Jingchang smiled, "I didn't mean to force you, in fact, if you can come over this time, the Ming Dynasty will be very happy, and the court will definitely have a big reward." This also includes rewarding surnames, for example, His Majesty may give the surname Zhu, if this happens, the one who will be rewarded is the honorable national surname. If you can get the national surname, you will naturally prove that you are close to the Ming Dynasty, and even if the score is not enough, you can take special care of it and improve the trade level. ”

Xu Jingchang said unhurriedly, it is not an uncommon thing to surrender the barbarians and give the country a surname...... For example, the Han Dynasty once gave the Huns the surname Liu.

Moreover, the Huns also destroyed the Western Jin Dynasty, established the Han Zhao Dynasty, and posthumously honored the queen Liu Chan...... is simply a filial son of the Han Dynasty, and filial piety moves the sky.

In the Tang Dynasty, he often played this hand, such as Li Keyong, a Shatuo person, who was given a surname.

Of course, the Ming Dynasty in history also had a national surname.

What Xu Jingchang wants is to go further, preferably like Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, to sinicize the whole family, change them to Han surnames, speak Chinese, and write Chinese characters, which is perfect.

Of course, the meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, and things have to be done step by step.

"Aha sent out the commander, in addition to changing his surname, wearing Hanfu, speaking Chinese, and writing Chinese characters...... It is also possible to set up schools and develop trade. Refer to the Ming system, determine the officials, use the Ming law, and standardize the people. As long as you can show enough sincerity and make corresponding changes, you can get a high rating from me. Speaking of which, this kind of thing is good for us. There were many exchanges between the two sides, frequent exchanges, and prosperous trade. This is a matter of rich countries and rich people, you can think about it slowly, and I don't mean to force it. ”

Xu Jingchang chatted with Ah Ha for a few more words, and then sent him away.

From beginning to end, Xu Jingchang was very polite.

Aha Chu listened to this explanation, and felt a little awkward in his heart.

Let him change his name, learn the habits of the Ming Dynasty, and govern the tribe with the methods of the Ming Dynasty...... Even if you are right, it is for our good, but what is a small thing to change customs?

I still have to think about it, and I have to discuss it with the big guys.

Aha returned to his residence, and when he was thinking about it, suddenly there was a quarrel next door, and gradually, they scolded each other, and in the end, there was the sound of weapons colliding.

What happened?

He hurried out, and at this time several of his subordinates were digging the wall and watching the excitement!

Aha hurried over, "What's the matter?" ”

"Look, it's the Koreans, and they're fighting with the Japanese people. It's really interesting, those Japanese people are so short, they are not even waist-high! ”

These people are tall and tall Liaodong men, and they really have the qualifications to look down on the Japanese people.

After all, they are not as tall as Jurchen dolls.

But don't look short, but the combat effectiveness is not weak, especially in the face of the North Koreans, it is even more fierce.

They brandished weapons and chased after the envoys who beat the North Korean side.

The North Korean envoy was furious.

Just because you dare to do it with us, and you don't look at it, how many are you?

A group of disobedient and unfilial things dared to bully the young master!

It's the other way around!

In terms of kinship, even if we are not the sons of Da Ming's relatives, we are still concubines, and we are also the eldest sons, which is very noble.

When it comes to civilization, we are also an authentic Little China.

You island barbarians, dare to be wild in front of us.

"Hit, hit!"

Helplessly, although they shouted fiercely, they really couldn't beat them, they were chased by others, beaten badly, and embarrassed.

Fortunately, at this time, the guards of Da Ming were alarmed, and a lot of them poured in at once, and finally separated them.

When these North Korean envoys saw the guards of the Ming Dynasty, they wept bitterly as if they had seen their relatives.

"The kingdom must call our minds! We were bullied by Shimayi. We are loyal ministers and filial sons of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty can't sit idly by! ”

The envoys beat each other, making such a big move, Huang Guan was once again alarmed.

As soon as he heard it, he knew that he was his good son-in-law, you were really interesting.

With such a score, the world is in chaos, and it is impossible to live in peace.

"What's the matter with you guys? When you come to Daming, you still don't follow the rules, so you can't go to the country in your eyes? Huang Guan could only scold.

But the North Korean envoy was in tears, and he actually fell to his knees.

"The kingdom is going to call the shots for us! The Japanese country bullied us, this is Yiyi offending Xia, and it is a big rebellion! ”

That's right, Little China is also China!

Huang Guan understood it, it turned out that they were proud of their higher ratings, so they made provocative remarks, and then caused the Japanese to fight back, and the two sides fought back and forth.

Huang Guan took a deep breath, "No matter how high or low the score is, you are all guests of the Ming Dynasty, in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, you are categorically not allowed to come nonsense, if you dare to fight without permission, you will bear the consequences." And also...... What kind of ability are you, if you want to take revenge, you have to raise troops to go to war, lack of weapons, you can naturally go to Daming to buy, isn't there all on the trade list! ”

After saying this, Huang Guan stomped his feet, turned around and left.

In the evening, Huang Guan came to Xu Jingchang angrily, and as soon as they met, he stretched out his slap and five fingers, shaking at Xu Jingchang.

This scared Xu Jingchang a lot.

What is the old father-in-law doing here?

Want to pump yourself?

"You, you can do it! On this day, 500,000 taels of weapons were sold! Huang Guan sighed again, "The reputation of the old man for half his life has also been sold together, woohoo lament!" ”
