The entire Seoul Mansion after the autumn was full of murder.

After the harvest, the people generally rest at home for a few days to prepare for conscription.

On October 27, people took to the streets to enjoy the rare spectacle.

The officials who usually act as powerful and prosperous have become depressed.

One by one, they sat in a horse-drawn cart, and if they couldn't afford to hire a horse-drawn cart, they carried money and grain, and set out towards a goal.

Seoul port.

There were dignitaries from the Ming Dynasty, who used huge ships full of supplies to do business with these officials.

Officials exchanged silver or grain for cloth to Ming officials.

The price of cloth is high.

But none dared to raise an objection.

The words passed on by word of mouth among the people of the Li Dynasty are nine points accurate.

There is an inaccuracy that Yang Chengying did not personally take care of these things.

When the officials came, he sat on the deck of the flagship and played a chess game with Jin Liu, Li Gui and others.

However, Jin Liu and Li Gui both seemed absent-minded.

They were defeated one after the other.

"The attainments of the two in Go should be higher than Yang's, why did they lose so badly."

Yang Chengying threw the white piece into the chess basket.

Jin Liu sighed and said: "Yang Jingluo is skilled, and we are willing to lose." ”

Li Gui nodded in agreement.

"It's not that you're not skilled, it's that you're absent-minded."

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "Originally, with the credit of supporting the new king to ascend the throne, you could control the government. As a result, he almost lost his country twice, so that his prestige was greatly damaged. ”

Jin Liu and Li Gui suddenly came to the spirit.

That's what worries them the most.

The loss of money and food can be compensated, but the loss of prestige and power is irreparable.

"Sometimes, I don't think you're brainy enough."

Yang Chengying said: "Do you want me to teach you a trick to divert this contradiction." ”

Jin Liu and Li Gui exchanged glances.

The two old guys went from being allies, to enemies, and back to allies.

In this life, there is the most tacit understanding in these few days.

"Please make it clear." Jin Liu's old face was shy, and he asked in a harmonious voice.

"I remember that there was a short-sighted person at the meeting who actually said, 'I'd rather give the supplies to the Jurchens than give them to me.' Faint words. ”

Yang Chengying said with a smile.

Li Guidao: "He is a descendant of the Liu family, and what he said is angry, don't take it to heart." ”

"Whoever he is, it's a good object to deflect contradictions."

Yang Chengying didn't care, "Don't forget, Guanghaijun who was overthrown by you is the king who intends to make peace with the Jurchens. ”

Jin Liu and Li Gui are also old foxes, and when they heard this, they immediately understood what Yang Chengying meant.

They can blame Liu Boy for the matter, saying that he angered Yang Chengying and caused today's incident to happen.

Otherwise, it is condoning the existence of such remarks.

It is tantamount to shaking the legitimacy of "anyway".

"Also, to increase the persuasiveness."

Yang Chengying said with a smile: "You can ask the rebels on the border to buy some heads, just say that the Tartars attacked the border and were captured by the official army." ”

"Buy...... Buying the first level? ”

Jin Liu and Li Gui were dumbfounded.

You can also do this.

"Of course, if you need it, I can provide the place and the person to trade."

Yang Chengying said with a smile.

The international "trade" routes of the Jurchen head have always existed.

At first, it was Yang Chengying who reached an agreement with the Li Chaoyi Army in order to defraud the military merit reward.

Later, he had Liaodong Town, and he did not cut off this route.

On the one hand, he relied on this method to finance the Li Dynasty's rebel army and stabilize the Li Dynasty's northern defense line.

On the other hand, it is also necessary to use the head of the Jurchens to deal with the imperial court.

At present, the front line of Anshan City is in a tug-of-war.

Both the enemy and us are wearing heavy armor, and they are still the elite of a hundred battles, and the gain of one friction is about equal to zero.

The use of the head obtained from the Li Dynasty Righteous Army to pretend to be military merit shows that the Liaodong Army is really fighting.

Save yourself some unnecessary hassle.

"Well, do you think my approach is unreliable?" Yang Chengying asked.

"Yes, you can."

Jin Liu's face was flushed, it was the first time he had done this kind of business.

Li Gui didn't care, "Please give me the location, and I'll do it." ”

At the critical time, of course, it is to first hold power in the hands of one faction, and then discuss the issue of decentralization.

Yang Chengying slapped his face, and a young man in charge of the first level of trade walked to the deck.

"This is Xiao He, you talk to him specifically, how to buy the first grade."

Yang Chengying said.

Jin Liu was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "First-level trading, there are still many doorways?" ”

Yang Chengying glanced at Xiao He.

Xiao He talked about it paragraph by paragraph: "As we all know, the Jurchen population is not large. Most of the enemies we can encounter are slaves under the name of the Jurchen Qiding, which is divided into three, six, nine and so on. ”

"How's that division?" Jin Liu continued to ask.

"The first class is the Jianzhou Jurchen, who is extremely brave. The second, third, fourth, and fifth classes are the Haixi Jurchens, of which the Yehebu is the second and the Hada is the third......"

Xiao He's various Jurchens were divided and told to them in detail.

I just said that they were stunned.

"This is the first time we've heard of this knowledge."

Jin Liu was already confused, "But I think no one in the court can tell the difference." ”

"Okay, I'll go to the north and get some heads and send them to you."

Xiao He said happily under Yang Chengying's eyes.

"Okay." Jin Liu nodded.

Xiao He stepped back.

Li Gui said with emotion: "This business is doing so well, and it is really surprising that it can be divided into so many parts." ”

"These are all fraudulent buyers, just listen to them, don't take them seriously."

Yang Chengying said with a smile.

"I see."

Jin Liu and Li Gui reacted at this time and smiled awkwardly.

They really thought it was a word made up by Yang Chengying's subordinates.

In fact, this is not the case.

Most of the Central Plains dynasties in the past dynasties had a common problem - they did not engage in investigation and research.

The only one who has such a good habit is probably the eldest grandson Sheng of the Sui Dynasty.

To deal with a stubborn enemy, it is necessary to find out what is going on inside them.

Xiao He not only did first-class trade, but also bought and sold grain, salt, cattle, python satin, etc. with Houjin, and constantly used commercial methods to investigate the situation of the Jurchens in detail.

These cases are not timely, but they are universal. Collect them and make an analysis report.

Based on long-term observations, analyze and formulate a plan for the weaknesses of Houjin.

Of course, this mystery cannot be known to the officials of the Li Dynasty.

After sending Jin Liu and Li Gui away, Yang Chengying called Zu Zehong.

"How's it going?" He asked.

"Back to the scriptures, the two classes of nobles in the Seoul Mansion came to claim the cloth."

Zu Zehong reported: "But his subordinates estimate that three days is not enough. ”

"It's okay, and I'm not going to stay forever."

Yang Chengying said: "After three days, we set sail for the Tsushima Domain. Leave a part of the merchant ships, and after they exchange them, they send the money and grain back to Jinzhou. ”

"My subordinates understood." Zu Zehong stepped back.

Ning Wan, who was standing on the side, asked, "It seems a bit rude that we don't go to meet the king of the Li Dynasty." ”

"He wishes I wasn't going to see him now."

Yang Chengying watched the fire, "Some unwilling guys will definitely run to the king of the Li Dynasty to cry, but what does the king dare to do?" ”

Ning Wan smiled: "Haha...... Indeed, if you come forward for fear of losing your prestige, if you don't come forward, you will be held by the ministers, which is like a pot of raw rice, which is unpalatable and tight. ”

"That's exactly what happened." Yang Chengying laughed.
