Shangdang is not a frontier place.

However, because of the inaction of the Han Dynasty, the entire state was almost turned into a frontier land.

The Xianbei and Xiongnu people's roaming around the state is as easy as walking through their own back garden.

Shangdang is currently the most solid and garrisoned city in the entire state.

Under such circumstances, the emperor suddenly mentioned that he wanted to open up the party and do business with foreigners.

This thing is so outrageous that it seems like a muffled thunder exploding on the heads of the three Huangfu Song.

"Your Majesty, this matter is extremely inappropriate!" Lu Zhi was the first to speak against it.

And he used an extremely hard answer like "extremely", and his attitude can be said to be quite resolute.

"The minister seconded the proposal!" Huangfu Song followed, "The war in the north is chaotic, each is its own master, if the party is opened, it will give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of, and even cause chaos in the entire state." ”

Liu Wei listened calmly.

Lu Zhi and Huang Fu Song's reaction did not surprise him at all.

If the imperial court wanted to open a trade route, it was inevitable to open a port.

However, such a precedent move is destined to be fully opposed by the ministers of the DPRK and China.

Today, Liu Xie gave Liu Wei a very good opportunity.

"The three Qing families, are you going to say this?" Liu Wei saw that the three of them stopped violently, straightened their sitting posture, and said with a smile, "Then let's talk about it." ”

"More than 30 million yuan, this is the good news that Chen Liuwang just brought us, and the biggest buyer is a businessman on the grassland."

"Zhuqing, don't always think that Qiang Rong is a blood-drinking generation, their wealth is very deep. I remember that there were even a few tribes on the grassland, who made a living from business, and they seemed to be the guests of Lord Xianbei, and they didn't dare to underestimate them. ”

Huangfu Song's brows furrowed.

Is there such a thing?

How could he not know at all?!

"Is it true that the product of our Han has always been very popular with the Quartet Rongdi barbarians?" Liu Wei asked.

“…… Be! Huangfu Song replied.

That's right.

Liu Wei took a sip of tea and moistened his throat.

Every time the court argues, it is tantamount to a big war for him.

You have to get your voice ready.

"Since the product of our Han Dynasty is so popular and can obviously bring a lot of wealth to the court and the people, why do you think this matter is extremely unacceptable?" Liu Wei asked in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, opening trade routes in Shangdang and trading with foreign tribes is tantamount to opening our doors to the enemy. If you are a little careless, it is the situation of the enemy on your back, the imperial court still has nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in Shangdang, the deployment of our army's troops, the situation of grain and grass, the enemy does not need to investigate at all, you can know it with a little guess! Zhu Jun said.

"Wouldn't it be okay to separate the two? Shangdang has an urn city. Liu Wei said.

Zhu Jun: ......

It seems that it is possible.

"Placing Fang City in Wengcheng, and dividing the army into two parts, stationed inside and outside the city, is this problem you worried about solved?" Liu Wei's aura was full of energy, and he looked around at everyone and said.

"After those merchants on the grassland enjoy enough profits, there is a high probability that they will be stationed in Wengcheng, and maybe, they will also become the talisman of the party."

"If you still have any questions, let's talk about it together."

The three of Huangfu Song exchanged glances, and they were all a little helpless.

"Your Majesty, this matter should be considered in the long run." Lu Zhi said.

Liu Wei moistened his throat again, put down the teacup and said: "Don't think about it in the long run, just say if you have any problems, I and Zhuqing will discuss it now." ”

Lu Zhi saw the emperor's eager battle formation, and instantly became serious.

"Dare to ask Your Majesty how to manage it after the opening of the trade port? If there are many people, there will be turmoil! He asked.

Liu Wei hissed lightly, with some toothache.

Lu Zhi thinks about the angle of the problem, and always likes to think about simple things to complex places.

It's a problem!

"The party has county orders, officials at all levels, and nearly 10,000 troops, what turmoil are you afraid of?" Liu Wei said.

"The minister dares to ask Your Majesty, is the opening of the port only for the purpose of collecting taxes?" Zhu Jun stepped forward and asked.

"There is no such simple thing in business, I want them to covet my big Han Fang and stay, so in addition to paying taxes, I also have land, shops and other big transactions, clothing, food, housing and transportation and all other small transactions, as long as they enter my urn, if they can't get more hair from them, this business will be a loss." Liu Wei said.

When Zhu Jun heard this, his eyelids jumped wildly.

Your Majesty is planning to ...... Grab it, right?

Liu Wei looked at the three of them with a smile and said, "I can also see this kind of thing in business, you don't understand!" ”

"If you have no other problems, this is the case!"

Huangfu Song asked in a low voice, "What should I do?" Lu Zigan, don't be dumb. ”

Lu Zhi's thoughts had already wavered.

Hearing the emperor say this, he suddenly felt that this matter seemed to be really feasible.

"I feel like a ...... now Meddlesome. Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and also said in a low voice.

"The only thing we are worried about is the peace of the state and the troubles in the future. But this matter, compared with those benefits, the imperial court can completely find a way to solve it. ”

Huangfu Song: ???

This old thief!

Opposition is the first thing you oppose, and rebellion should be the first fucking one.

"Don't whisper down there, I haven't told you the real benefits of opening the port on the party." Liu Wei said in a shocking voice, "Business can really be replaced. ”

"Shangdang can use my Han's silk, leather goods, medicinal herbs, sugar, etc. in exchange for cattle, sheep and horses that are in short supply in the Han Dynasty, which is an apparent benefit, and we will benefit, and the merchants on the grassland will also benefit."

"No one will dislike their own power, and if they go further, the imperial court can support the small tribes on the grassland on the grounds of doing business, and be my minions!"

Hearing this, Lu Zhi did not hesitate.

"Minister's approval!" He shouted quite loudly, as if the spirit of his whole body had been raised all at once.

There is a lot to be done in this matter!

Huangfu Song was a little speechless, and he had already defected after thinking about everything, and he didn't seem to need to continue to insist.

glanced at Zhu Jun, who was a little dazed, and Huangfu Song also defected.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

Zhu Jun looked at it and stepped forward to agree.

He even agreed to buy armor.

When the party opened the port, he was not very opposed to it.

The emperor's recent intentions are obvious, just one word - make money!

Do everything you can to make money!

And after thinking about it, the advantages do outweigh the disadvantages, and there is nothing to hold onto.

The only thing that worries Zhu Jun now is that he seems to have changed.

If the emperor continues to influence him like this, he feels that he will also become a bandit.

He is now even starting to think about what kind of way to grab it is more reasonable.

Instead of trying to stop these things.

Liu Xie was stunned from the side.

Just now, he witnessed how the emperor fought against the three princes and forcibly opened the gate of Shangdang.

In order to do business smoothly, his royal brother is about to go into battle shirtless.

Learned again.

……

Get on the party.

This important city in the north became the first city in the Han Dynasty to open a port for trade.

The three princes who were persuaded by Liu Wei were quite efficient.

On the same day, they drew up a list of officials and issued an order from the imperial court.

These three bigwigs attach great importance to this matter, no matter how big or small, all of them are personally decided.

After replacing all the officials who should be replaced, they set their sights on Cao Chun, the current guard of the Shangdang.

The three of them went to the table together, wanting to let Gai Xun, who was old and calm, change guards with Cao Chun.

But this matter was rejected by Liu Wei.

Cao Chun, Liu Wei has been paying attention to it for a long time.

Leaving him to supervise the north of the town was also Liu Wei's decision after careful consideration.

Although Cao Chun does not appear many times in the romance, he doesn't seem to have experienced any huge battles.

But he is the main commander of the Haw Par Rider.

As Cao Cao's commander of the guards, known as "the world's sharpest", this is a proof of absolute trust and ability.

Cao Chun's reputation is that he is the governor of the palace and the discipline of the family.

This is a must for the Governor's side.

In addition to these, Changbanpo's pursuit and killing of Liu Bei was done by Cao Chun.

He is now low-key and even Sangong doubts his ability, which Liu Wei is very happy to see.

It's good to keep a low profile, and you can eat tigers in the future.

The more low-key Cao Chun is, the more in line with Liu Bian's intentions.

The imperial court wanted to open a port in Shangdang, and the matter of being a Wanguotong mall pool soon spread in Luoyang.

This incident caused a huge repercussion among businessmen.

The businessmen who are quick to move have already begun to shout in the gold market to recruit people to form caravans.

Like hunters who have smelled their prey, they quickly straighten their bows and arrows, sharpening their knives.

Lu An is mediocre in appearance and is a businessman from Yizhou.

It was his first time in business in the true sense of the word.

In Shuzhong, because of Liu Yan's wanton expedition to the wealthy family, people everywhere were panicked and chaotic.

The cloth he and his neighbors weave cannot be sold, and the livelihood of his family has become a problem.

Lu An took a risk and drove a few mules to Luoyang with a few companions in the village, and drove a few mules to Luoyang in a shoulder-to-shoulder manner, originally preparing to try their luck, but in just a few days, all the goods in their hands were bought.

Today was supposed to be the day to prepare for the departure home.

But looking at the inscriptions plastered all over the walls and the noisy heads in the gold market, Lu An was a little moved.

He picked up the few copper plates in his pocket, gritted his teeth secretly, and turned back to the reverse journey he had thrown into.

"Three tigers, I've decided, let's go to the party!"

Finding a companion from the same village, Lu An immediately said.

In the humble room of the Reverse Journey, several men in rough clothes were packing their bags.

There are not many things, and the action they repeat the most is to hide the money that they have won so hard.

No matter where I hid, I didn't feel like it was safe, so I hid it again and again.

Hearing Lu An's words, several other people were shocked.

"Xiao Anzi, are you crazy? We can't make up the excitement outside, everyone has caravans, and the wealth is abundant, we only have such a few people, and the capital is just so much money, what can we do? The man who was called the Three Tigers said.

"The people in the village are still waiting for the money to go back to get food, but they don't dare to toss around."

Lu An pursed his lips, but his expression became more and more determined, "I know, but I think this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Shangdang opened the port, this is the emperor's personal decree, everything is guaranteed, our cloth is very popular with the grassland people. ”

"I think we'll scrape together some money and buy some cloth nearby. Leave two people to help me, and the rest of you will go back first. ”

"When you go back, bring more cloth and go straight to the party!"

The Three Tigers sighed lightly, "Have you forgotten how hard we have come this way?" ”

"How long will it take? It's definitely winter, Xiao Anzi, how can you climb the mountain when it's cold? ”

"Don't think about it, I know you think we made some money this time, and we will definitely make it next time, but it's so easy to do business. This time, we were lucky enough to meet a not-so-picky buyer. ”

Others also came over to persuade Lu An to accept it when they saw it.

The affairs of the Shangdang realm are not something they can get involved in.

"Okay." Lu An was persuaded by everyone, and nodded helplessly, "Then can you promise me to go back quickly, and then transport the cloth to the party?" I don't ask you to pool money for me, I'll figure it out myself, I just ask you to bring the cloth. ”

"The cloth in the village can't be sold anyway now, and it's only a little farther to pull it to Luoyang and Shangdang, but we may make more money, and it's really worth trying. If we can occupy a favorable position in the party as soon as possible, we may be able to turn over. ”

Seeing that Lu An said that he still didn't give up, the three tigers silently began to untie the bags they had just tied.

"What can you think of, it's hard to get a bite to eat in this world, who would be willing to lend you money?" He scolded, took out his money, carefully divided half of it, and threw it to Lu An, "Mine, I hope what you said is true." ”

Lu An pursed his lips tightly.

"It will definitely be different after joining the party, this is the ruling court of the court."

Sanhu waved his hand, "Okay, I don't understand what you said, I just believe you." ”
