Chapter 1801 Meeting

"With soldiers, we can quickly cut through the mess!"

"In the past, in the Liao Kingdom, the southern states provided money and food, and the northern states sent troops. Now this has caused a problem: Liaodong lacks troops."

"If Mr. Xian can have a strong enough army to resist powerful enemies externally and eliminate rebellion internally, will all the above problems be solved?"

Wang Jing shook his head: "No, the bond issue has not been resolved. Moreover, if the army is recruited, not to mention how long it will take to train, even if it is an army, a lot of equipment, food and grass will be consumed in the meantime, won't it still make things worse?"

Zhao Zhongqian said: "My husband has thought too much. I, the Song Dynasty, will never ignore the bond issue. As long as my husband signs an agreement with the Song Dynasty and guarantees that the output of the iron factory will be used to pay off the bonds year by year in the future, I will not be too shameless to pay off these bonds."

I beg you to be an official, and let your husband take care of it."

Wang Jing looked stunned: "Then...what are your country's requirements?"

"I'm joking. I think that with the current situation of the Liao Kingdom, what kind of demands can your government afford?" Zhao Zhongqian said, "So this is an investment, a pure investment, without any extra conditions."

.”

"In Liaodong, we used to have more than enough to support half of the country's 700,000 troops. Now we only support one need, so there will be no profit? Therefore, our officials are not worried about repayment."

"It's the same as your domestic issuance, only interest is required. We have paid the total principal and interest of the iron factory bonds so far, totaling 3.85 million guan, and we have full ownership of the bonds."

"The interest will be 10% every year, and the repayment will be divided into ten years. Based on this calculation, in the next ten years, Liaoyang Iron Works only needs to pay us iron materials worth 700,000 guan every year. How about that?"

Wang Jing was immediately overjoyed: "I can agree to this agreement now. The terms are more generous than what the late emperor promised me."

Zhao Zhongqian said: "But if this happens, your dynasty's iron coins will no longer be issued."

"But there's more..."

"Ahem, cough..." Chen Wuji quickly interrupted and cupped his hands to Zhao Zhongqian and said, "I have been thinking about this issue recently. In the states in the southern part of Liaoning Province, the non-citizens do not have enough food, iron or money to circulate."

"The crux of these incidents in recent years is ultimately the lack of credibility of currency. Whenever there is a disturbance, whether it is coupons, bonds or silk banknotes, the fluctuations are extremely high."

"However, imported money and Song Dynasty banknotes do not have this problem. I have a merciless request, and I don't know if Jiedu can agree to it."

"Commander Cao, please speak."

"Can you allow me to use Song Dynasty treasure notes and imported money on the Liaodong Road?"

Zhao Zhongqian couldn't help but sneered: "Chen Caoshuai made a good calculation! I, the Song Dynasty, will bear the currency guarantee, and then give it to you for circulation in Liaodong? And where are the silk banknotes? I will give you 5.8 million guan from your majesty, are you really

Consider them waste paper?"

"Well..." Chen Wuji couldn't help but blush because his shameful intentions were ruthlessly exposed, but now that national affairs are more important, he could not care about his personal face: "If the Tokyo Road continues as before, millions of dollars of money and food will be spent every year."

, we can slowly absorb and withdraw the silk banknotes, as long as your Majesty does not release a lot of them all at once, within ten years, within ten years, it will be like paying off bonds, and the government can be responsible for absorbing them all."

Zhao Zhongqian thought for a while and said: "That's fine, then there will be no problem."

"How come there are no problems?" Wang Jing said quickly: "Didn't we just solve one of the internal and external troubles we just mentioned?"

Zhao Zhongqian said: "The rest is that we need a strong army?"

"Yes! But there's not enough time, right?"

"Actually, there is still a way."

"any solution?"

"borrow."

Wang Jing already understood Zhao Zhongqian's idea: "Ask the Song Dynasty to borrow troops? Jiedu was waiting for me here?"

"Money and food come second. Borrowing troops is risking the disapproval of the world. I will never dare to make any unauthorized claims."

"Also, even if the court agrees, once I contact Situ, and Situ will report to Your Majesty, and then reply back, I'm afraid my bones will rot early."

"Don't forget King Wei in Jiedu. After he finds out, I'm afraid he will immediately send troops to destroy me in Liaodong..."

Zhao Zhongqian said: "But my husband, please don't forget that the Song Dynasty is in Liaodong and now has an army of troops."

"where?"

Zhao Zhongqian said: "The four states of Yalujiang are envoys to the capital, Su Yi!"

"Master Su? Does he dare to send troops?"

"The Soviet leader seems to be stable, but in fact he is extremely bold. He dared to cross the ocean at the age of fourteen. Do you think he dares to agree?"

"As long as your Majesty, you order the Kaizhou garrison to open the road, Su Zhizhi can reach it within a few days from Yalu River to Posao Ridge, which is only 350 miles, and to Liaoyang Mansion, which is only 400 miles!"

Wang Jing asked: "But Su Zhi only has 6,000 people. Can he guard Liaoyang?"

Zhao Zhongqian burst out laughing: "Didn't Aguda only use 5,000 men to defeat Xiao Sixian's 70,000-strong army? Even Aguda admired the Soviet envoy very much. Not to mention 6,000 men, 3,000 men."

People are strong enough to defend Tokyo Road!"

"My lord, please don't forget that Su Zhizhi is not alone. Behind him are Situ of the Great Song Dynasty who was in charge of our Fourth Route to Hebei Province, and Zhang Taiju, the Governor of the Beiyang Navy!"

"There is a young master who is in charge of Liaoyang Mansion, and one person can equal an army of 100,000 people! Even if he doesn't have any of his subordinates, how dare the King of Wei act rashly?"

"Take it!" Wang Jing suddenly understood and stood up with a slap on his thigh, but then he thought of another question: "No, no, this is beyond my authority, I don't dare to do it..."

"How can I, Zhao Zhongqian, do things so unethically?" Zhao Zhongqian said, "What if the borrowing of troops is out of holy will? My husband, will you obey or not?"

"Jie Du is joking. Your Majesty is hunting in the north and his whereabouts are still unknown. Where did he get the holy will from?"

Zhao Zhongqian handed over to Wang Jing: "This finally brings us to God's will just now. Congratulations to Duke Ming for getting another fortune. Yelu Yuxu, the deputy commander of the northeastern capital of your dynasty, arrived yesterday with Concubine Wen and Prince Jin.

Tokyo Road."

"Ah?" Wang Jing was shocked: "How did they escape? Where are they now?"

Zhao Zhongqian looked at Wang Jing and smiled and said: "It doesn't matter that we have passed Wuzhou. Now I just want to ask, what are you going to do?"

Finally entering the business scope that he is best at, Wang Jing couldn't help but be filled with surprises and rubbed his hands excitedly: "If this is true, then the dark clouds in the sky will dissipate!"

"Prince Jin is your Majesty's eldest son. Now that he has come to Liaoyang, we can do something big!"

"Brother, brother, you are my great blessing!"

…

On the first day of the seventh month in the second year of Shaosheng, Wang Jing led the ministers of the South Courtyard to personally greet Concubine Wen and the King of Jin in Lejiao, north of Liaoyang Mansion, with the most solemn etiquette.

Liaoyang Mansion is one of the five capitals of the Liao Kingdom. It originally had a palace. Wang Jing has spent the past few days repairing it, arranging the palace staff, and welcoming Concubine Wen and King Jin to live in peace.

At the same time, he summoned the ministers of the South Courtyard to report to the Northern Court, requesting Concubine Chonglong Wen to be given the authority to govern the palace system in Tokyo, with the King of Jin guarding the Liaoyang Mansion, and the general manager of the Tokyo Road, taking charge of all affairs in the South Courtyard.

He also made a suggestion that the country should not be left without an owner for a day. Since there is no news about His Majesty's Northern Expedition, we might as well respect His Majesty as the Supreme Emperor and establish a new king for the Liao Kingdom!

In Tokyo Dao, Wang Jing's prestige was already high, but now he has great righteousness, and all officials obey him.

This incident caused an uproar in the Liao Kingdom, and of course the Beiting did not agree.

But now that Wang Jing has the first heir to the Liao Emperor in his hands, he immediately becomes tough in his words and deeds. I just want to inform you that whether you agree or not, in fact, I in the south don't care much.

…

Xin You, Wang Jing brought Niu Wenshu, who participated in the Nanyuan political affairs, Zhang Lin, the political counselor of Quan, Chen Wuji, the salt and iron envoy, Qingcheng who stayed in Tokyo, Zhao Zhongqian, the newly transferred envoy of the Song Dynasty, and the Jiedushi envoy of the Zhangjie Army.

See you at the palace.

The Yonghe Palace still exudes a faint smell of pine oil. Merchants worked hard to repair the palace. The pine oil extracted from the pine resin is still a product of the Song Dynasty.

Because time was really short, even the smell of decoration had not completely dissipated.

However, the palace's furnishings, expenses, and royal scriptures were all purchased according to the standards of the Empress Dowager and the Crown Prince, which deeply impressed Concubine Wen's mother and son, who had experienced many years of suffering.

Xiao Sese was located behind the gauze curtain, and Zhao Zhongqian could only see an ignorant shadow. On the dragon chair in front of the gauze curtain, the four-year-old King Jin sat.

After the prayer, Wang Jing formally introduced the ministers of the South Courtyard to Xiao Sesu.

Xiao Sesu said: "At a time when the country is undergoing great changes, there is still a piece of paradise on the south bank of the Liao River. Thank you for your hard work, the prime ministers."

Wang Jing hurriedly saluted: "I don't dare to take credit, but fortunately the empress and the King of Jin came to give everyone a backbone. From now on, all matters in Tokyo will be issued by the empress Yi, and I will obey the decree and carry it out. There should no longer be any doubts about me."

The person of the heart."
