After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Zhaohua 24th June [-]th.

Li Chenan and his party arrived at Yudan City.

This is the last city in the south of Ningguo.

It is only a hundred miles away from Wuya Pass.

From entering Annan Road, the closer the Yudan River is, the more tense the atmosphere becomes.

It's just that after the Red Flame Army came back again, fewer people fled with Annan Dao's family.

After all, leaving home is a very sad word, and it is also a very troublesome thing.

Everyone is waiting and watching, waiting for the result of the battle between the Red Flame Army and the Wu Army.

Yudan City is on the front line of the war.

Some large merchants left the city, but more people stayed, but there were fewer pedestrians on the street, and the bustling scene of the past was no longer on the street.

Joy Inn.

The four of Li Chenan lived here.

Originally Li Chen'an thought that the inn might be empty, but he didn't expect that there were many people living in this Yuelai inn.

Mainly businessmen.

I heard that they were all businessmen who were going to Wu to do business.

The four of them made arrangements and came to the lobby on the first floor, and sat at a table in the farthest corner.

A rather handsome waiter hurried over, took the towel from his shoulders and wiped the table, and said with a smile: "The guest officer is coming to Jade Pill City at this time, presumably he is also going to do business in Wu Kingdom?"

Li Chen'an nodded, and asked: "Look at this posture, the matter of Wu Yaguan is not over yet?"

Xiao Er shook his head and sighed: "It's not that easy."

He put the towel on his shoulders again, "The Red Flame Army has only been back for five days. I heard that these days they are fighting in the gate every day, but those soldiers in Wu State have cultivated into thousand-year-old turtles!"

"No matter how we fight, they just hide in the door and can't come out."

Xiao Er spread his hands together: "Then Wuyaguan is high!"

"Wuya Mountain is precipitous and steep, and the closed wall is closed. Speaking of which, the closed wall was built by Ningguo. Now it's all right. General Wu Mian came back earlier. He looked at the Xiongguan and heard that his face was black. out of the water."

"It's difficult to break through!"

"However, our Red Flame Army is not far from the pass, and the Jade Pill City is not in danger... Let's not talk about that, what can the guest officer do?"

Li Chenan ordered four dishes, Xiaoer left happily.

Qin Rigang looked at Li Chen'an, and asked in a low voice: "Master, it seems that we really have to cross the mountain."

"Well," Li Chen'an pondered for a moment and said again: "Go to close it first and have a look."

"... After all, it is a battlefield. Besides, there is an army in such a thing as war. The young master went to Wu to join his relatives. Why bother?"

These words were reasonable, but Li Chenan still insisted on his idea.

"Just go and see, after all, young master, I haven't seen what it looks like when two armies confront each other."

This is Li Chenan's heartfelt thoughts.

Although he had personally experienced the battle of Wufanyuan, the strength of the troops on both sides of Wufanyuan was nothing compared to Wuyaguan.

Of course, he also wanted to go to the battlefield to see Wuya Pass in person, maybe he could find a way to break through it.

Qin Rigang did not insist.

At this moment, a voice came from the next table.

"Hey……"

First a sigh.

"It seems that I won't be able to go to Wu country in a short time."

"Tomorrow, I will go back to Jiangnan Road. The business environment in Jiangnan Road is quite good now. If you earn less, make less money. It's better than wasting money like this."

Li Chenan looked up, it was a middle-aged man in his forties.

An old man next to him also stroked his long beard and sighed, "Yeah, this old man has lived here for half a month. He wanted to go back to his home a long time ago, but he heard that the Red Flame Army is back."

"I thought it would not be difficult to take back the Wuya Pass when the Red Flame Army came back, but now I realize that fighting is even more unpredictable than doing business."

"It's time to go back."

"Think about it, no matter whether you win or lose this battle, it is a foregone conclusion that Ning and Wu will fight against each other."

"If Wu Guosheng, they will definitely not open and close the door for us to pass in a short time."

"If we Ning Guosheng, we go to Wu, I'm afraid the people of Wu will not be as kind to us as before. If it doesn't work...the loss outweighs the gain if we die as a guest!"

Everyone pondered, the old man's words made sense!

Then someone sighed:

"My Song family has been running the business route of Wu State for more than ten years, but it has been completely broken all of a sudden."

"My Tao family is not the same. The shop opened in Wu country has been waiting for this batch of goods to be delivered. Not to mention that the goods can't be delivered now, and my shopkeepers and waiters can't come back. "

"I said, the regent has formulated a policy for our Ning country that is beneficial to our businessmen. From now on, our focus will still be on the country. As Brother Huang said, earn less if you earn less, at least there is no such thing. risk."

"..."

Li Chenan did not expect that the foreign trade had reached such a height.

This is a good thing.

Of course, he still doesn't know whether more goods from Ning country are imported into Wu country, or more goods from Wu country flow to Ning country.

But in any case, businessmen seem to already have experience in doing business across borders.

It sounds like Wu State at least did not prevent Ning State businessmen from doing business in Wu State.

He doesn't know the volume of this cross-border transaction, and he doesn't know what advantages each side has.

He still doesn't know how the state collects taxes for cross-border business.

Because there is no record about this matter in the Imperial City Division, the officials in the court seem to have not paid attention to this matter.

Li Chenan is very aware of the importance of this matter.

It's just that before Zhongli Ruoshui's illness is cured, he doesn't have time to go back to the capital to learn more about or promote this transnational business.

This matter is a systematic matter.

In order to occupy a dominant position in transnational business and trade, Ningguo must become strong.

Both militarily and in terms of commodity superiority.

This needs to be done in the second five years after the first five-year plan is implemented.

Li Chenan thought so, and suddenly another voice came:
"Isn't Yan Jidao a great master? With him in the Red Flame Army, with his skill as a great master, can he leap to the wall of Wu Ya Pass and kill a bloody path?"

Someone gave a smirk: "Is it a fight in the rivers and lakes when you fight against an army of tens of thousands?"

"He has arrows!"

"Besides, there are masters in the army!"

"Didn't it say that the Seven Swords of Tianshan are among the Wu army?"

"Grandmaster Yan is powerful, but he is not invulnerable. If he flies to the top of the wall, he is afraid that he will be shot into a hedgehog before he lands!"

"Oh... Then it seems that Wuyaguan will not be taken back. I am afraid that it will be a confrontation in the end. This trade route is completely broken."

At this moment, a young man rushed in and shouted: "It's fighting, it's fighting!"

Someone asked in amazement: "What's the matter? Wu Jun has left the customs?"

"No, those turtles still haven't stuck their heads out, but we threw those... fireworks at the wall!"

"fireworks?"

"Yes, it is the thing invented by the regent during his lifetime, and it is extremely powerful."

"So it can be broken?"

The boy shook his head and sighed: "It's hard, the distance is too far, those fireworks mostly explode in the air."

"It's not good to be accurate, not even two fell on the wall."

"It's good-looking, but it's good-looking. I guess it scared Wu Jun a lot." (End of this chapter)
