Chapter 543 Three Cunning Rabbit Cave(1/2)

Bingchenshuo (the first day of the lunar month) in the seventh month of the first year of Yuanyou.

In Dutingyi, Yeluju held the "Bianjing News" in his hand and squinted his eyes.

"It seems that the Southern Dynasty really won this southern expedition!"

He was a little surprised.

"Haha..." Sitting opposite Yeluju was the deputy envoy who was on the mission with Yeluju this time - the official Taizhong of the Liao Dynasty, the guardian of Chongluqing, who was appointed as the Qianwen Pavilion to control Lu Sili. Lu Sili listened and laughed. He shouted: "Jiaozhi is nothing more than the small country of Zuer. It is normal for the Southern Dynasties to win it!"

This is true!

The Southern Dynasties was still a big country no matter what.

Winning is normal, not winning is abnormal!

No one in Shangjing City ever doubted this.

"Bachelor..." Yeluju handed the tabloid in his hand to Lu Sili and said, "The Southern Dynasty seems to have forced the Jiaozhi people to sign an incredible peace treaty this time!"

"Jiaozhi requires millions of shi of rice as tribute every year, and it still needs to sell millions of shi of rice at market price!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Lu Sili took the tabloid, scanned it, and found that what it reported was that King Li Qiande of Jiaozhi sent his younger brother Chongxian Hou Li Taide to join the court, the news of apology, and the terms of the peace agreement signed between the Southern Dynasty and Jiaozhi. Lu Sili was immediately surprised: "Suddenly, it is worth more than one million guan of rice!"

“Do the people of Cochin have so much rice?”

Yeluju replied: "There should be some... I remember that after the Chanyuan Alliance, the Zhenzong of the Southern Dynasties obtained Champa rice from Champa and planted it in Lingnan and other places. It can yield two crops in one year!"

"Jiaozhi is in the south, and it is said that its rice can even be harvested three times a year!"

After Lu Sili heard this, his eyes widened.

In recent years, frequent natural disasters have also affected Youyan's agriculture.

Drought, in particular, resulted in widespread harvest failures.

But I didn't expect that the rice in the miasmatic land in the south could actually be harvested twice or even three times a year.

Awesome! So awesome!

It's a pity that the miasmatic and hot land is thousands of miles away, so we can only watch the Southern Dynasty make this fortune.

Seeing Lu Sili's envious look, Yeluju asked calmly: "Bachelor, I heard that the emperor intends to send troops to Korea after this autumn..."

"Perhaps we can also force Goryeo to sign a similar peace agreement."

When Lu Sili heard this, he shook his head and said, "Goryeo is a small country with a small land, cold and barren. How can there be so much rice?"

In the city of Nanjing, in the past few months, there has been a debate over war and war.

The Zhuhe faction, which was dominated by scholar-bureaucrats from the Youyan Han region and some veterans of the Beiyuan, firmly opposed the use of troops in Goryeo.

Because in their eyes, Goryeo was just a small country, so it was enough to send an envoy to reprimand them and let them know their mistake.

There is no need to mobilize troops and use weapons in a big way!

Moreover, even if you win, there will be no money to be made.

More importantly, history has proven that even if their capital is captured, the resistance of the Koryo people will force the Liao people to retreat.

Therefore, the discussion in Nanjing has been at a stalemate.

Today, I am also scrupulous and worried. Once I use my troops, if I encounter a setback, the stability of the world may be shaken, so I am hesitant.

"But..." Yeluju sighed: "If this is the case, wouldn't the emperor's face be disgraced?"

"This..." Lu Sili hesitated immediately.

Don't think that only the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty cared about international attention and was afraid of being surprised by its allies.

Same as the Liao Kingdom!

The symptoms may even be more severe.

no way!

The emperor of the Yelu family was like this.

He wanted to dominate the Southern Dynasty in everything, especially in the international arena, and he had to do enough to show off as the true heir to the Tang Dynasty.

However, in the eyes of people in the west of the Western Regions, China seems to be divided into three.

One is the Black Khan Dynasty in the Western Regions, the other is Khitan China (Liao Dynasty), and the Peach Blossom Stone China (Song Dynasty) - don't laugh, externally, the above three all call themselves China (in the eyes of Arabs, Eastern Rome and Western Europe)

, probably automatically assumed the situation of his own family, thinking that the family was separated).

Now, the Southern Dynasty was victorious and forced the Cochin people to sign such a generous peace treaty.

If the news reaches the ears of the emperor today, Lu Sili knows that it will be difficult for the emperor to control it.

It was absolutely impossible for him to endure that the Liao under his rule was inferior to the Southern Dynasty in terms of martial arts.

The nobles in the North Court will also find an excuse to use troops - if Goryeo is so domineering and cannot be punished, I will be afraid that the Southern Dynasty will think that we have no one.

"Besides..." Yeluju said softly: "Bachelor, don't forget it!"

"Today, the trade between our North Korea and the Southern North Korea is seriously unbalanced!"

"Three million Guanjiaozi will be spent in less than half a year."

"But there are very few ways for the country to make money..."

"If things continue like this in the long run, I'm afraid that's not the answer."

In the past six months, the Liao Kingdom has been actively selling its own specialties to the Song Dynasty.

However, when the war horses cannot be sold, they can only rely on selling their furs.

Even in the past, the trade between Song and Liao was seriously unbalanced.

Usually, in the past, when I got the Liao coins in my hands, I turned around and bought all the Southern Dynasty products on the border.

They even had to make huge profits from the silk trade.

"Are we going to ask the emperor to give all the gold and silver in the country's stockpile to the Southern Dynasty?"

“It’s better to go elsewhere to get it!’

"Looking around, is there any better place to make money than Goryeo?"

"As a minister, I should share your worries for you!" Yeluju's words were like magic sounds, echoing in Lu Sili's ears.

"If the scholar talks about this matter, after the emperor wins, he will reward him based on his merits. Based on the scholar's trust and love in front of the emperor, he will be appointed as the prime minister. It will be natural."

This is a killer!

"Jiedu is talking about..." Lu Sili's eyes flickered.

He is already qualified to be appointed Prime Minister.

But, there are too many competitors.

Especially among these people, there are several people who are close to the emperor's grandson.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to truly become the Prime Minister.

But, if you can make a contribution...

only……

Lu Sili looked at Yeluju and asked, "Why doesn't Jiedu speak for himself?"

Yeluju smiled: "There are too many ministers from the North Academy who are in charge of the battle. One more person is not enough..."

"Only when literary men like the bachelor take charge of the battle, can the emperor make up his mind."

This is true.

But……

"Why did Jiedu help the official?" Lu Sili stared at Yeluju.

He would not be so naive as to think that he and Yeluju had drank wine several times in the Southern Dynasty and had shared money together and that they were their own.

Yeluju chuckled lightly and said, "The bachelor should know that I have many friends in the Southern Dynasties."

"Among them, there are a few friends who are still in the romantic business."

Lu Sili nodded.

He had followed Yeluju to Sangjia Wazi, and he knew that Yeluju had great magical powers in the Southern Dynasties and knew people from all religions and professions!

To be honest, at first, Lu Sili was shocked - Yeluju was in this Southern Dynasty, as if he was in a deserted land, going in and out of romantic places, and the officers and soldiers of the Southern Dynasty acted as if he had not seen him.

This is too exaggerated.

But soon, Lu Sili understood - it wasn't Yeluju who was great, it was just that money could make the world go round.

With the designated trade quota of three million guan per year, merchants from the Southern Dynasties buzzed around like bees smelling honey.

With Jiaozi opening the way, there will be no obstacles!

"A few friends want to get a stable supply channel for Silla's maids..."

"The Bachelor should understand, right?!"

Lu Sili listened and nodded.

During the Tang Dynasty, the reputation of Silla maidservants spread throughout the world and has not faded to this day.

If a Silla maid could appear in the Bianjing people's tile shop, the business would definitely be better.

"To be honest, bachelor, those friends have agreed to give me this number of shares as long as the matter can be accomplished!" Yeluju held out three fingers.

"If the bachelor can facilitate this, I am willing to share half of it with the bachelor!"

"Besides, if the children of the bachelor's family come to the Southern Dynasty to do business in the future, those friends of a certain person are willing to facilitate it!"

"Besides... bachelor... people say that cunning rabbits have three holes... bachelors have no idea?" Yeluju looked at Lu Sili with burning eyes.

Lu Sili naturally understood it instantly.
