The Liao Kingdom had five capitals, but the emperor had no place to live. They adopted a method called "Nabo", which was the so-called camp and camped for hunting on the vast land at any time. The nobles of the Khitan and ministers in the court all had to follow the emperor to handle various government affairs.

The seemingly primitive approach is still very useful for maintaining a loose empire.

The emperor's kindness was spread all over the world, and the Khitan royal nobles maintained their martial spirit by participating in hunting.

Usually, in winter, we go south and in summer, we migrate north.

Yelu Jing met in the Great Zhou Dynasty in the winter, and the two sides met south of Yingzhou to discuss peace talks, which was reasonable. As the peace talks ended and the weather warmed up, Yelu Jing led the Khitan nobles on the way back north.

As for the trade between the Great Zhou and the Khitan, it is still underway.

At first, Ye Hua and the Khitan agreed that the Great Zhou would export 500,000 guan to the Khitan, while the Khitan sold 1 million guan to the Great Zhou, but in fact, this amount was not enough to even plug the gap between the teeth!

The crazy Khitan prodigal women quickly purchased more than 1.5 million guan of goods from the Great Zhou Dynasty, mainly silk, porcelain and high-end tea.

There is another output, that is books!

That’s right, it’s the Analects of Confucius, Mencius, the Book of Changes, and the large-scale Buddhist scriptures... Wang Pu and Ye Hua promoted the reform of Confucianism and recompiled textbooks, making it so exciting.

But the Khitans were obsessed with things that were abandoned by the Great Zhou, especially the nobles of the upper class. Everyone liked to make a few books to decorate the storefront. When they spoke, Zhihuzhe felt that he had walked out of barbarity and became civilized.

Ye Hua said that the robber's son is always a robber. Even if the house is full of books, he can still smell the slut!

But no matter what, these things can bring huge profits, which is a good thing.

With money, there is nothing in this world that cannot be done.

It took Hantong only three months to clear 300 rivers, and the Yongji Canal was opened. Following the Yongji Canal, the Great Zhou fleet could directly enter the Baigou River on the border of Zhou and Liao!

"Wait for two months, as long as the flood season arrives, the water level of Baigou River rises, our fleet will be able to go upstream and cut off the connection between Mozhou and Youzhou in Yingzhou. These two states are our pockets!"

Han Tong wiped the sweat from his face and was in a very good mood.

After three months, he followed the cargo, carried heavy sandbags, cleaned up mud, and his hands grinded thick calluses. A layer of blood blisters broke, and before he could recover, he continued to move. In a blink of an eye, he grinded out another bubble. In this way, he pressed layer after layer and his palms were thicker.

Han Tong shook his big slap like a show-off, baring his teeth, "See you, just slap, you can't get enough of a sword and a gun. Turning back and killing the Khitan dog is even more energetic!"

Ye Hua likes people who work hard, although he tends to be more likely to take shortcuts most of the time. It seems that many smart people are like this. If others work honestly, they don’t have to spend too much effort to manage... From this perspective, there is nothing wrong with fooling the people, and at least they can reduce the cost of governance.

The sentence "The people can use it, but they cannot know it." There is really no need to dig into the thoughts to explain the sentence. The truth is so red fruit, and the saints just think so, but you are not willing to accept it...

"How are the cities of Cangzhou and Ganning Army? This is our base camp of Yanyun, so we can't be careless!"

Han Tong was in a little embarrassed. Cangzhou was covered with saline-alkali land, with severe seawater attacks. In addition, the Khitans were harassed from time to time, the people were displaced and the population was large. Han Tong used all his limited manpower to clear the rivers. As for the construction of the city, half of the foundation had just been laid, and the project progress was limited.

"This is not possible!"

Ye Hua immediately shook his head, "The progress of the city must be accelerated, and we must be ready to start a war with the Khitan at any time!"

Han Tong's body was shocked, "Don't worry, even if I, Old Han, fought for more than 100 pounds, will build the city and will never delay military and national affairs!"

He looked desperate, but Ye Hua felt distressed. Han Tong knew him the earliest. After several years, it seems that he has taken care of this old friend the least, and he has made him suffer his life and feel sorry for him...

"Since the population gap is large, let's recruit some people from the Central Plains." After Ye Hua finished speaking, he shook his head first. This method would not work.

Not to mention that the spring plowing approaches, the Central Plains is very busy. Just by mobilizing civilians to go north, the Khitan will be on guard immediately and his abacus will be lost.

Where should I get people from?

Ye Hua was silent for a long time and suddenly slapped his thigh.

"Haha, I have a way!"

Han Tong said curiously: "Mr. Marquis, will you come out?"

"I'm so stupid. Why do I just want to sell things and forget that there are still personnel transactions!"

Ye Hua did not explain too much to Han Tong, but instead went to find the merchants, and after talking to them, he borrowed 20 people.

These 20 people were given new titles and were appointed "fair traders". During the Great Zhou and Khitan trade, they were responsible for verifying the goods and estimating the prices.

For some products with obvious inferior quality and high prices, purchase warnings are issued.

Therefore, the Khitans saw this scene. Both Han people, these fair traders actually helped the Khitans speak, and were chased by the merchants of the Great Zhou Dynasty and beaten their faces with blood.

But even after being beaten, they still did not change their original intentions and insisted on making trouble for the merchants in Dazhou. Many of the fish that had already been hooked were mixed up by them.

"Your folding fans are from Japan, not made by craftsmen in Dazhou; these teas are old tea, why should you sell new tea? How dare you use yellow ox horns to pretend to be rhino horns? Also, your porcelain is from a folk kiln, which is 108,000 miles away from the official kiln..."

Yelu Sha was appointed by the emperor to be responsible for trade with the Great Zhou Dynasty. He accidentally met these fair traders on the court. He was particularly interested and called one of them.

This person is not good-looking, but he speaks very reliable. He won all the fakes he identified!

"You are a Han man!"

"That's right!"

"Why are you talking to Daliao?"

"I didn't help the Daliao, I just helped the Han people themselves!"

Yelu Sha was puzzled, "Did you make trouble for them or help them?"

The man raised his head and said with a smile: "If you want to make the business last long, you should not take advantage of the opportunity. Some people with bad intentions use inferior products as good ones, which will ruin the reputation of the Han businessmen. Sooner or later, there will be endless disasters. Only when the goods are genuine, fair and reasonable can they achieve a win-win situation!"

"suck!"

Yelu Sha looked at him seriously and felt very moved. He really didn't expect that there were honest people among the Han people!

"You are right. Since that's the case, you should be a guest for me. I will give you one thousand yuan a year, uh no, ten thousand yuan! How about it?"

The man shook his head decisively, "I am a native of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This time, I was ordered by the Champion Hou to maintain market transactions. If I follow the adults, wouldn't I become a traitor and would be infamous for thousands of years!"

"Hmph!" Yelu Sha slapped the dagger on the table, "What a traitor! I asked you to do it, but you still dare to disobey?"

The man smiled slightly, "Of course I can kill me, but I think there are many flatterers around me. Can you believe them when they speak? If the young one is shameless, will the adults still be willing to recruit the young ones?"

This is interesting, soft and hard, so that Yelu Sha can't find any fault! He said angrily: "Hmph! Don't think you can escape. I have a way to let you do things for me sooner or later!"

Yelusha's opportunity came soon. The trade between the two sides was piloted for three months and needed to be officially operated. Yelusha found Yehua and asked for a fair trader as soon as he opened his mouth. He wanted to hire a group of people to do things for him.

"This matter is very troublesome. You also know that the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are unwilling to do things for outsiders. If there is no sufficient reason, they are just traitors or surrendering to the enemy. They are stabbed to the backbone when they are alive and cannot enter the ancestral grave after death!"

Yelu Sha and Ye Hua had had several dealings, and knew that this guy was full of fun. "Is there no way to be as smart as the champion Hou?"

"have!"

Ye Hua replied very simply, "Now our commodity trade is doing well, but the business is getting bigger and bigger, so we need various supporting facilities... For example, merchants in the Great Zhou Dynasty need to hire Khitan porters, and Khitan needs our talents. It is better to do this, we sign a personnel trade agreement."

"Trade agreement for personnel?"

"Yes, so we can be open and hiring our own staff, and we can also make detailed regulations to avoid misunderstandings."

Ye Hua said, took out a copy of the text grass agreement and threw it to Yelu Sha.

"Look at it!"

OK, this was planned!

Yelu Sha nodded secretly, and he looked at it. It was really clear. It was very detailed and seemed fair and reasonable... What made Yelu Sha the most tempting thing was that they could sell labor. The money that labor earned in the Great Zhou Dynasty would be handed over to the Khitan. They suffered too many losses in business. If they could rely on human resources to make money back, it would be a good choice.

Yelu Sha's mind was covered with bronze coins, but he actually agreed to Ye Hua's request without hesitation... When the first batch of laborers from the Liao Kingdom were sent to the construction site in Cangzhou.

Han Tong and Zhao Kuangyin were both stupid, my God!

Is there anything more crazy?

Are all the Khitan fools?

You give money to Dazhou and people. Do you know that these projects are used to deal with you? Zhao Kuangyin finally believed that someone would dig his own grave.

In front of Ye Hua, these Khitans were simply fools!

"They are not stupid. Their family is full of money, they eat delicacies, wear silk and satin, so they should not live too comfortable!" Ye Hua said with a smile.

"But they won't be comfortable for long. When we prepare for it, their death date will come!" Zhao Kuangyin said confidently.

"Yes, this is the contradiction between interest groups and the country as a whole... At the beginning of the founding of the country, we can still be united as if we were instructed by our arms. But over time, the differentiation of each other's interests gradually leads to conflicts. Even though we know that it is a treason, we will do it for the sake of our interests!"

Ye Hua stretched and picked up a bucket of cement.
