Chapter 218
The rainy season is the season when you can see a little rain and dew in various parts of the northern border.
The damn rainy season will destroy a lot of buildings and bring great disasters, but without this rainy season, the entire north will have to worry about draft for the next year.
Fortunately, the canals, rivers, and pipelines in the city repaired in the past dynasties can still slow down the impact of heavy rains, not to mention that after nearly a year of cash-for-work, a large amount of rainwater will be stored to prepare for the scarce years of rain in the coming year.
But out of the territory of the Wu Dynasty, then you can really only look at the face, the ancient river, the natural ditch in the mountain can not comb the surging river, at least the flash flood diversion destroys everything, or the worst is the flood in February, causing unimaginable destructive power.
The rumbling thunder, the raindrops the size of beans continue to fall, and the equation runs fast, otherwise it will be another soup chicken today.
"Sir!"
Xiaohu served a cup of butter tea to ward off moisture.
The lack of water vapor in the north all year round, the dampness, and the feeling of dampness and cold should not appear in the north, but because of the towering Taihang Mountain, the water vapor is blocked from continuing to go westward, resulting in the heavy rain in the north as long as it appears, it must be plural, one comes from the east, one comes from the west, repeatedly alternates, when the luck is bad, it is normal to not see the sun for ten years, and since then it has formed a unique climate similar to the southern "Huangmei day", which is called "inverted dry day" by the north.
As for the western part of the Taihang Mountains, the Liangzhou region relies on the meltwater of the snow-capped mountains for water in the four seasons, forming two completely different lifestyles.
"You didn't always want answers, so why didn't you go?" The equation took a sip of the damp-repellent butter tea, the taste was slightly salty, but the appropriate saltiness just solved the oiliness of tea oil and milk.
"I've got the answer from Mr.!" Xiaohu smiled, "I never doubt sir, naturally I don't need to see the results!" ”
The equation picked up the teacup, lifted the cup at Xiaohu, and agreed, "You kid is getting better and better at talking, keep it up, I'm very optimistic about you!" ”
After drinking half a cup of butter tea in one gulp, Equation wiped his mouth, "Say, what happened?" ”
Jokes aside, things still have to be done.
Xiaohu is the person who is scheduled by his sister to help herself, and she is also the person who is responsible for her own safety, if it's okay, how can he disappear for a few hours for no reason.
"I think we might be in trouble!" Xiaohu's eyes glanced to the east.
"Trouble?"
The equation followed Xiaohu's gaze, "I don't think there will be any trouble anywhere?" ”
Qinggutun, far closer than Tai'an City to Yuyang, and a lot closer, the same Tang newspaper, it only takes more than a day to fall into the hands of the equation, and it takes three days to enter Tai'an City.
Some news about the situation of the Jurchen, Tai'an City has not yet known, and the equation has long been known.
Between the Wu Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom, the war is over!
In order to reform the Jurchen ethnic group, the Wanyan family accepted the entire Jurchen clan for use, and when Wanyan Aguta was still in power, they began to implement sinicization within the ethnic group, and prepared for the Jurchen to establish the Jin State and establish the capital Xuansu.
The three members of the Wanyan family, whether it is Wanyan Wenqi, Wanyan Kangtai, or the emperor who was kidnapped by Lan Di, are making trouble and fighting, all of them are determined to promote the sinicization of the ethnic group.
It seems that only through large-scale sinicization can the Jurchens prosper like the Khitan Liao people, as if only in this way can they get rid of the fate of the Xianbei people.
As for the purpose of how to do it, the six countries of the Central Plains have long seen through it, and the purpose is very simple, that is, to firmly grasp the ruling power of the Jurchens in their own hands.
If it weren't for this, Jin Guo would not have been framed by Wu Chao's move.
In order to save him, the little emperor of the Jin Kingdom, who died politically and still existed in law, has chosen to surrender within the Wanyan family and began to communicate with Nian Run, and even from the news from the case division, they even let go of their move to continue to track Lan Di.
Everything is on the bright side, what's the trouble with that?
"The day before yesterday, the envoy representing Wanyan Kangtai had a secret meeting with Nian Run, and during the meeting, the envoy made three requests, first, to acquiesce to his ascension to the throne of the Golden King, second, to open the household market, and third, the Jurchens hope to establish a futures market in Yuyang, so as to trade medicinal materials on the white water of Beishan!"
Xiaohu crossed his fingers and said, "In this regard, they are willing to pay no more than one million taels of war reparations, and at the same time sign a border contract with us for fifteen years!" ”
In essence, the Hushi is the exploitation of the grassland by the Central Plains.
It's just that stupid people can't see this, and smart people also have their own selfishness, which leads to the fact that after the opening of the Hushi in the past dynasties, it is difficult to fundamentally solve the contradictions, but it continues to accumulate, so that the larger the scale of the opening of the Hushi, the longer the operation time, the more irreconcilable the contradictions between the grassland aliens and the Han people.
Among them, the most hated exploitation is all kinds of precious medicinal materials, especially in the northwest of the grassland, in the white water of Montenegro.
If it is said that the merchant collects the price of grassland mutton in the household market, and uses the price of carrion, then the price of the merchant to collect medicinal materials is the price code of weeds, but the mutton is easy to handle, but the medicinal materials are not good.
"It's not reciprocal!"
Three requirements, two pays, how do you feel that this war was won not by the Wu Dynasty, but by the Jurchen?
"Method, all dynasties have fought against the grassland, the result is like this, of course, even if you lose, it doesn't matter, as long as the grassland cavalry can't enter the Great Wall, you need to pay some food and cloth, Wanyan Wenqi can take the initiative to propose a million taels of compensation, looking at the compensation of the various departments of the grassland, in fact, there are already a lot, for the Jurchens who have not yet established a country, they may not give a penny, and run directly to the Xianbei grassland, and then they will not get anything!" Xiaohu shook his shoulders.
"It's what happens when you wear shoes!" The equation hit the nail on the head.
Who let the Jurchens promote sinicization and establish the capital Xuansu, with the capital of Xuansu, the Jurchens established a relatively stable rule, and at the same time gave up the characteristics of nomadism itself, and if they can't run away, then they have to pay for it?
"Isn't that what it is? We need to withdraw now, the news of the north can't be hidden for long, now there are rumors of the grassland, Wanyan Wenqi wants to take the position, he must be on that position before the wind spreads all over the grassland, we have to guard against the Song people, once the news comes out of the Xianbei grassland, after the Liao people know, at most ten years, the Song people will react, people just see this! ”
The reality is very helpless, the Wu Dynasty cut off the sea, the news channels in the territory, and took advantage of the merchants returning to the south to throw out the hole cards, but they couldn't stop the information on the grassland.
The Liao people peeped at the Song people, but they were very open to commerce, and they couldn't do it if they didn't let go, and without the Song Dynasty caravans, no one could help the Liao people digest the treasures from the Silk Road.
"I didn't pay attention to the medicinal materials, but I don't think it should be too expensive, since someone asked you to send a letter to me, I will definitely mention it, let's talk about it!"
The unit price of medicinal materials is high, but there are few medicinal materials, and it is difficult to give an answer to the equation if you don't understand it comprehensively.
