Northern Song Dynasty: It’s a showdown, who said I, Zhao Zhen, don’t have a son?

Chapter 73 The soft bones of the Song Dynasty
According to Zhao He's memory, there were no envoys sent to the Song Dynasty in history.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, in the first year of Qianning of Emperor Zhaozong, that is, in 894 AD, the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty returned to China and listed it on the list.

'The Tang Dynasty has been in decline for a long time, and even the envoys to the Tang Dynasty have finally stopped sending envoys to the Tang Dynasty. '

The proposal was approved, and no envoys were sent to the Tang Dynasty since then.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty had entered its twilight. There were eunuchs with exclusive power inside and vassal towns outside. The Japanese were worried about the risks and stopped sending envoys to the Tang Dynasty. This was actually understandable.

But after that, the Japanese state put forward a series of bans, prohibiting maritime trade between the two countries, restricting Chinese shipboarding, and even restricting the exchange of civilian personnel. This system lasted throughout the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms until the Song Dynasty.

This kind of behavior is the most hateful. When the Tang Dynasty was strong, you were rewarded with countless gold and silver treasures by sending envoys to the Tang Dynasty. You were even allowed to learn everything you wanted to learn in the Tang Dynasty for free, and they would also provide you with help. But after the Tang Dynasty declined, Not only did the Japanese state not express anything, they even did things like severing relations.

Ungrateful and simply hateful!
However, in the Song Dynasty, many officials within the Song Dynasty proposed to resume exchanges with the Japanese country. This was simply a joke.

The Japanese country has shown such an ungrateful and white-eyed wolf attitude, what are you doing with him?
It's no wonder that Zhao He couldn't suppress his anger at this moment. He himself didn't have any good impression of the Japanese country. Now he felt the weakness of the officials of the Song Dynasty, and he was even more resentful.

How could such a great Song Dynasty survive in such troubled times!
Destruction in future generations is also an inevitable result!
After Jia Changchao and the other two heard what Zhao He said, they didn't say much, but they also kept Zhao He's words in mind.

There are some things that you need to go back and verify. These can all be checked...

In the morning, the morning market ended and all the vendors closed their stalls one after another.

"Little Prince, will today's annual party still be held at your home?"

Zhao He nodded: "Let me inform everyone, don't waste any time."

"No problem, let's go!"

The vendors then left, and Zhao and a few others were also in the test store.

Guo Huai and the other two people on the side were a little confused, so they stepped forward and asked, "Xiao Langjun, why are you so angry? What did that man say?"

Zhao He shook his head and didn't say much.

In this era, people actually didn’t hate Japan very much, they just despised a small country like Japan.

The official approach can actually be explained as painful. The Song Dynasty was in trouble externally, and the Liao Kingdom and Xixia were eyeing it. No country dared to form an alliance with the Song Dynasty.

It must be because of these...

But they didn't know how this country was treated by the Japanese in the end, how many innocent people died, and the land of the Central Plains was dyed red.

In such a country, history will never forget their crimes, and neither will Zhao He!

The annual meeting is still the same. Now at Chonghe Night Market, there are more than 120 people involved in the operation of the night market and more than [-] people involved in the operation of the breakfast stall. These people are all trustworthy by Zhao Heneng.

We are old employees of Heshi Group, and we need to increase our cohesion at the annual meeting!

Zhao He naturally couldn't ignore Bao Zheng's previous words. He got rid of Fan Zhongyan and submitted an application last night. After Bao Zheng agreed, he sent someone to monitor him.

In order to avoid Zhao He's rebellion, it is understandable.

After the stall gathered several people and went home, they saw Cao Lang already waiting at home.

Seeing Zhao He, Cao Lang chuckled and said, "What have you been busy with these past few days? I haven't seen you at the night market for a long time."

Zhao He cupped his hands and smiled and said: "I have been researching new things recently. If Brother Cao is interested, you can also invest in it."

It is impossible to get Qin Wan to invest. Qin Wan can't help much in this business, except for providing funds and sales.

But he now has the initial funds for this perfume, and there is no shortage of sales. After all, Fan Lou's shop is there.

What is missing?Lack of connections!

There is Cao Lang from Zuosili Prison in Kaifeng Prefecture. That means there is someone there. Whoever dares to covet this business will be captured directly by him.

When Cao Lang heard this, he smiled strangely and said, "Young Master, are you trying to harm me?"

Zhao He said in confusion: "Why do you say this?" "As an official, how can I collude with businessmen? If so, Dou Rushang will end up. Besides, the current government has banned collusion between government and businessmen. If I invest money Isn’t that breaking the law knowingly?”

Zhao He thought about it and found that this was indeed the case.

"That's a pity. This can make a lot of money."

Cao Lang smiled and shook his head: "I will not participate in this matter."

The key is that the Cao family is not short of money and does not need to do this.

However, if you participate in this matter, you can get closer to Zhao He and understand the people around Zhao He better.

Now, he knew the identity of Fan Zhongyan, but as for Uncle Guo and the unidentified man, he could not confirm it.

He now believes that that man is an official!
But I can't see the official family, and I haven't seen him in this period of time, which is a pity.

Zhao He, Zhao He...

If that person is really an official, what is the connection between Zhao Hehui and the official?

In this case, the matter is even more worthy of consideration.

While the two were chatting, vendors outside were also gathering one after another. The courtyard space was quite large, and more than 200 people could actually stand together neatly and compactly.

There were so many people, and everyone looked at Zhao He with expectant eyes.

Don’t blame others for doubting it, this is really like the mobilization before the uprising.

"Everyone, after several months of our development efforts, the total turnover of our Heshi Group has reached [-] yuan!"

"This is our end point for this year, but it is also the starting point for next year!"

“What should we do to make our lives better in the future?”

"Bigger and stronger, create greater glories!"

More than 200 grown men shouted in unison. The movement seemed quite big. Fan Zhongyan from next door also came to Cao Lang's side.

"Did Bao Zheng send you here?"

Cao Lang cupped his hands and said, "You are indeed destined."

Fan Zhongyan shook his head and felt helpless: "If it were anyone else today, he wouldn't dare to shout like that. Now that you are here, he can be more unscrupulous."

Cao Lang smiled and said: "Is it possible that Zhao He is not afraid of me?"

Fan Zhongyan chuckled and said: "When you helped him in prison, he already believed that you would not harm him. Besides, even if you wanted to punish him for any crime, rebellion... He believed that you didn't believe that he was rebelling. That's enough. ”

Cao Lang also had a strange expression: "Zhao He is indeed very different. I just can't understand it. I just don't know why Mr. Fan stays with Zhao He. Is it because Zhao He's identity is not simple?"

Fan Zhongyan shook his head and tried to hide it without any trace: "I feel that this person is very important and can inherit my mantle in the future, so I stayed here. It's just that it's a bit difficult to teach him!"

Cao Lang pondered for a moment, chewing on the meaning of these words, and then looked at Zhao He again.

Could it be that he really has no identity?
Then Cao Lang still looked at Zhao He's movements.

Um?Start dividing the spoils?

Seeing that Zhao He had already said a lot, the people below looked at him with longing, and then Zhao He waved his hand.

"This year is coming to an end soon. As a member of our Heshi Group, year-end bonuses are indispensable."

Several money boxes were brought out and placed on the table in front of everyone. After opening them, they were slowly filled with copper coins.

"Come on, bring up the money box, and each person can grab a handful, as many as you can!"
