Chapter 463: A Wonderful Journey to Kaifeng City (4)

Let Du Baojun have a little reason why he can't make up his mind now.

Not only in the banquet just now, but in the face of the amazing talent of the noble concubine, he, a former talent who is well-known in the Huzhou area, has been hit a little.

So much so that now, the two poems that are considered to be his highest level in his arms have never been embarrassed to show off.

The more important reason was that he saw that he couldn't be in the limelight at the banquet.

began to think about it, since he arrived in Kaifeng City, some details that he had ignored.

For example, it stands to reason that the new court of Empress Maode, who is currently in Kaifeng City, is facing a huge threat that may strike again after the autumn of the Jin people.

It is said that a new army of 50,000 men had just been formed just over a month ago.

Even Du Baojun didn't know what kind of new law such a so-called new army was.

But what he knew was that in the last time the Jin people entered the Kou, the armor and ordnance that were originally in stock in Kaifeng City, as well as the more clever craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry, were all robbed by the Jin people.

In this way, all the weapons and armor needed for such a new army basically had to be rebuilt.

That involves the need for a large amount of iron to create a sufficient number of blades and armor; In terms of iron, it should be quite scarce.

The result? Among the dozens of materials purchased at a high price by the Department of Commerce, there is no iron material at all.

On the contrary, at the auction during the day, the concubine said that as long as each regional franchisee does not weigh more than 200,000 catties of goods each time, there is no problem.

The hundred steels that can be made into good armor actually have such a surplus quantity that they can be sold at will?

Suddenly, Du Baojun clearly realized one point:

The new court, which represents Empress Maude, is not at all as weak as rumored by the outside world, but its strength is far beyond everyone's imagination.

As a qualified businessman, he knew that the highest level of their profession was not a rich country.

But just like in the Spring and Autumn Period, Lu Buwei, the minister of the Qin State, invested in an emperor through the ages and gained supreme power.

Compared with their Du family, although they do not have Lu Buwei's family background and arrogance.

But if you put a bet on the new court of the Great Song Dynasty at the most difficult time at present, and take the initiative to take refuge, the return you can get in the future will be amazing.

It's just that this matter is a big matter, whether to really press it or not, Du Baojun can't make up his mind for a while; Naturally, I didn't have much thought about having another wine banquet with other merchants.

Then at such a time, a sudden situation made Du Baojun finally have an idea in his heart.

Because just when he was a little undecided, another sentence suddenly came from his ears: "Look, isn't that the legendary Hu Yitong and Hu Shu's secret envoy?" ”

After hearing this, Du Baojun's eyes immediately widened and looked at this legendary and controversial figure.

I saw that in the middle of the night, on the street where there were already some sparse people, in a rhythmic hoof.

A young man wearing a purple official robe that only a member of the imperial court who was qualified to wear it, with a face like a crown of jade and an excellent demeanor, appeared on the street in front of them.

Shi Shiran passed in front of them and disappeared.

Such a handsome young man, but he rode on a big green mule in a somewhat nondescript manner.

What seems even more inconsistent is that as a member of the imperial court, this person does not even have a guard and retinue by his side; Obviously, he can be called a husband, and it is okay to have an accessory around his waist, but he has an ugly pig-killing knife inserted.

Now in a huge Kaifeng city, or in the entire Great Song Dynasty.

can have such a peculiar dressed character, except for the rumored good man Seven, relying on the support of a group of henchmen, coercing the Son of Heaven to make the princes live Cao Cao.

Who else could be the deputy prime minister of the dynasty, the privy envoy of the Privy Council, Hu Biao, and Hu Yitong?

Xu is the reason why some people in the crowd accidentally drank too much because of drinking a kind of liquor called 'burning knives' at the previous banquet.

Under the courage of the wine, there was soon a not-so-loud dripping sound that reached Du Baojun's ears:

"Hu Yitong is really a shame for my Great Song Dynasty, a first-class member of the dignified court, but he is dressed like a pig slaughtering sheep, which really loses the dignity of my Great Song Dynasty."

In the blink of an eye, another retort sounded:

"Hugh is talking nonsense, not to mention that now people are just looking like they have finished their business trips, and how they are diligent in state affairs.

Hu Xianggong said that because of the scarcity of war horses in the city now, he will not go to the battlefield to fight recently anyway, so it is better to save a war horse and put it in a more needed place to use.

The pig-killing knife on his old man's waist has a reason.

It is said that it was originally owned by a righteous person in the city called Chen Ergou, but unfortunately he failed to kill a golden man, and he was seriously injured and dying in the process of supporting Cooking Cake Mountain, which was the biggest regret before his death.

As a result, he happened to meet Hu Shu's envoy, and Xianggong immediately swore that he would use this pig-killing knife to slash at least ten golden soldiers.

Since that day, this pig-killing knife has become Hu Xianggong's belongings, even today, there are no less than 100 people who have died under this pig-killing knife.

Hu Shu's envoy still takes it with him from time to time to spur himself. ”

Under such an explanation, everyone was amazed.

Only the person who was the first to drip, still shouted with some unconvincing: "Even so, this is just a means for Hu Yitong to buy people's hearts." ”

The problem is that no matter whether Hu Biao's approach buys people's hearts or not, he can make such a move and persist for so long.

is enough for Du Baojun to make a sufficient decision:

He didn't go back to Huzhou, so he hurriedly took a letter and explained the matter of the regional franchise in detail, and asked his henchmen to return immediately and hand it over to the head of their Du family, that is, his father.

Presumably, with his father's vision, he naturally knows what to do next.

As for himself, there is something important.

That is, to stay in Kaifeng City and continue to walk around; In the end, it was decided whether their Du family should fight and completely surrender to the new court of the Great Song Dynasty.

******

After making up his mind, Du Baojun politely rejected the other people's proposal to go to Vasher to play again, and hurriedly walked towards the inn where he lived.

After writing the letter, he planned to leave the city early tomorrow morning, and let his henchmen rush back to Huzhou immediately.

On the way back, because he didn't eat anything during the banquet, he also ate a big bowl of fruit when he met a wonton burden he was carrying.

Then, he began to write hard under the lamp oil.

It's just that in such a process, he didn't notice something related at all.

For example, in his full praise, the wonton burden vendor who is not tall but has excellent craftsmanship is none other than Hou San's sworn brother Liu Dalang.

When Hou San signed up for the new army that day, Liu Dalang was taken by Yu Hanfeng.

It's not that Yu Hanfeng has any strange hobbies, and his girlfriends in the modern plane have successfully proposed; It's just that in his opinion, Liu Dalang is just a talent.

Because who would have thought that such a three-inch peddling peddler would actually be a spy.

Isn't this the latest thing he tossed out, the 'Jinyi Guard' of the New Intelligence Department of the Great Song Dynasty, an excellent target for absorption?

So after more than a month of training, today happens to be the debut of Liu Dalang and others; Let's find out how much these regional franchisees recognize the new imperial court.

After all, what they want is to develop a group of supporters, not some white-eyed wolves.

So just now, the unlucky guy who was crazy about Hu Biao is afraid that there will be no good end in the future.

In addition, since there is an internal intelligence department Jinyiwei, there is naturally also an external relevant department, that is, the 'East Factory' that the singer is responsible for.

And the East Factory is there, and the propaganda department 'West Factory' that Huang Fatzi is responsible for is also normal.

Of course, the above names such as Jinyiwei, East Factory, and West Factory are just based on the bad taste of these guys.

I have long known that the Ming Dynasty of later generations, such a kind of 'special WU Zhengzhi' is a huge harm, and they are still quite restrained in many aspects.

For example, the West Factory under Huang Fatzi is mainly the editor and publisher of the 'Great Song Times'.

In addition, there is a group of old men and old ladies in Kaifeng City, which can be regarded as using the monitoring methods of the people's vast sea to prevent the infiltration of opponents.

There is also some subtle, rather obscure propaganda.

It's awesome to say, but it's actually a bit shabby.

At the same time, in a small building in Vasher, the merchants who had obtained the franchise also began another wine feast.

But they didn't know that not far away, in a courtyard behind Vasher, the talented lady and concubine in their minds were teaching the group of 'swallows' under her:

"How many times have I told you, it's okay to laugh before you speak, but don't laugh so farneously.

Don't pounce on the target as soon as you see it, and you can't wait to pull all the clothes off your body, and you have to hold it to know if you know.

must be more like a daughter than a daughter.

Only by holding it and satisfying the appetite of these old SPs can you take out everything you want from their mouths and pockets.

All right! Now let's start the makeup class, everyone take out the makeup case~"

In short, in a not too long time, Kaifeng City has been quietly shrouded in a big net woven by Yu Hanfeng, the singer, Huang Yizhi, and the concubine.

And after such a large net continues to evolve, it will soon be released, and the area will be enveloped more and more......
