Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Xiao Xuan is the only seedling of the youngest Xiao Ye's family, and he should be doted on logically, but in fact he is the least important one among the Xiao family's juniors, and the Xiao family has never discussed any matters with him. I can't see him on important occasions, not for anything else, just because he is not Xiao Ye's own, but his adopted son.

In the Jinchengguan prison, Xu Zizhen did not simply extort several hundred taels of silver from him, but said a few words to him. Except for Xu Zizhen and Xiao Xuan, no one knew what he said. Since Xiao Xuan was redeemed by Xiao Ye After coming here, he stayed in his own room every day and didn't go anywhere, so he didn't have to worry about the errands of Zhuo Luo and the Southern Army Commander.

On the surface, Xiao Xuan seemed to be frightened by this captive incident, hiding at home and preparing to become his dandy young master, but in his heart, he had already changed his mind like a storm, which was not noticed by others.

"Within three months, the Xiao family will be destroyed. Are you going to be beheaded together with them, or will you follow me and become a happy rich man?"

These are Xu Zizhen's original words. Xiao Xuan did not study the credibility of these words, but agreed after a brief thought, not for anything else, but for two points, one: he has no right in the Xiao family He has no power and no money, and his monthly pocket money is not even comparable to Xiao Yi's cost of buying a dog; second, he and Xiao are not related by blood, and even though they are adopted sons, Xiao has never given his father any care. What good things happen to the Xiao family will be his turn in the end, but bad things may not be.

Just like the defeat at Jinchengguan this time, Xiao also redeemed him, but when he came back, he said lightly, "You can rest at home." Later, he found out that the Ministry of War blamed him for the defeat at Jinchengguan. He was on the head of Xiang Size, and Xiao Xuan, as one of the hostages, naturally could not escape. With the big tree of the Xiao family, although he would not be beheaded and convicted, but it is certain that he will not be able to stand out from now on. that's it.

Xiao Xuan is actually a smart man, and he quickly figured out the truth. If he was perfunctory Xu Zizhen in the Lanzhou Prison, he is now determined to do it anyway. After he came out of the house, he went straight to the largest family in the city. He went to the antique calligraphy and painting shop, and when he came back, the calligraphy and painting under his arm were gone, replaced by a few silver notes.

Xu Zizhen went back to his residence and went into the big wild house, slept on his bed for a while, and when Xiao Xuan found him again, he ordered 800 taels of silver bills for him.

From Xu Zizhen going to ask Xiao Xuan for the debt early in the morning, to Xiao Xuan going out to sell calligraphy and paintings for money, and finally returning to the Xiao Mansion to ask Xu Zizhen to pay the debt, the whole process was under the eyes of Xiao Xuan's servants, but none of them saw it. When Xiao Xuan entered that antique shop, he secretly stuffed a note into the hand of a servant at the door.

……

In Daye's room in the backyard of the Xiao Mansion, Xu Zizhen was holding a few banknotes and was meditating. These were sent to him by Xiao Xuan just now. He didn't say much, but the meaning was clear. The note had already been passed on to the person who should pass it on. In his hand, the old man Li Qianshun must be thinking about it right now.

But what Xu Zizhen is thinking about now is another irrelevant matter, that is, money. He will return to the Song Dynasty sooner or later, and he has already made plans to do something for the Song Dynasty and the people. What Xu Zizhen wants to do In fact, it is very simple. It is to lead troops to fight, attack cities and seize land, pull back the Northern Song Dynasty that should have perished from the cliff, and keep the northern part of the Central Plains that was originally renamed Jin.

But things are by no means as simple as those described in the novels. For example, finding a wise lord to give advice, since then gold, silver and treasures have flowed in. War is the most expensive job. Food, fodder, soldiers, horses and carts travel by boat, and the more soldiers you bring, the more money you spend More and more, this point Xu Zizhen had already suffered when he established the Shenji Camp in Lanzhou. It was only a small team of 500 people, and it cost him several thousand taels of silver for more than half a month. It's not too distressing to rob it from Kuizhou, but it's only spent and not earned, and Jinshan can't stand his ruin.

Xu Zizhen came from later generations. Although he has never been in contact with politics and military affairs, he is not on the same level as the Song Dynasty. The prosperity of the country is nothing more than two points-technology and economy. He has no idea about technology, even The gunpowder and artillery that Jincheng closed to show off his prestige had nothing to do with him, but economics, he was a college student studying trade, and he was a little tricky if he handled it properly.

Well, even if the Xixia mess is dealt with, even if Li Qianshun's family is brought over, although it may not be possible to prevent the Li family from fighting with the Song Dynasty, it is still feasible to use this relationship to do some trading business. Navigation skills are not enough to travel north and south, and the most profitable way is the Hexi Corridor where Xixia is stuck.

Da Ye didn't know what Xu Zizhen was thinking about, even if he knew, he couldn't understand it. He just watched Xu Zizhen sitting there in a daze, until he suddenly stood up when the sun was westward in the afternoon, and went outside the door. Go, but he was startled, and hurriedly followed.

Xu Zizhen went straight out of the room, and shouted at the door: "Come here."

The yard looks quiet, but there are people secretly guarding everywhere. Mr. Xiao clearly said that he was protecting Mr. Xu, but in fact he was just watching him. Xu Zizhen naturally knew this, and soon after he yelled, someone appeared in the courtyard. In front of him, he stood with his hands down: "What's your order, sir?"

Xu Zizhen didn't talk nonsense, and asked him to find a map with as much scope as possible. The servant was stunned and then hurried away, but first went to the second master Xiao E. Xiao E was also stunned after hearing the words. After pondering for a while, he ordered someone to take out the most complete map so far, and asked him to show it to Xu Zizhen. They could not guess what Banxian was going to do, but Xiao E thought it might be that Banxian was giving them advice. Expand the territory of his Xiao family kingdom.

When people are arrogant, they always think on the bright side, and an old fox like Xiao E can't avoid it. There is no way, no one can calm down when they are about to succeed in usurping the country.

After Xu Zizhen got the map, he unfolded it and glanced at it. He was immediately overjoyed. The territory covered by this map is extremely wide, including Song, Xia, Liao, Jin and other countries, as well as Mongolia, Dali, Tubo, Uyghur and other countries, and even more western countries. Lands such as Tianzhu, Heikhan, Seljuk, Hualazimo and other countries.

Xu Zizhen, who has not been here for a long time, is blinded by who is who in these countries, but he can guess some general directions. For example, most of the Black Khan Kingdom is the Xinjiang of later generations, and Tianzhu is naturally India. That Searle Pillar is almost Afghanistan.

Xu Zizhen was very satisfied. He took the map and turned back to the house. It would be great if he could do business in these places. A lot of money is waiting to be earned, but he must make a list and route first.

He was full of thoughts of making money, completely forgot about Zhuoya's affairs, and plunged into his room, only when he entered the room, he suddenly found a middle-aged man sitting in the room, with sword eyebrows, deep eyes and a delicate demeanor, And Zhuo Ya was lying flat on the bed in the back room, her clothes were not messy, but her eyes were closed and motionless as if she was asleep.

Xu Zizhen was immediately alert: "Who are you?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "Isn't Mister a half-immortal? Why not guess?"

Damn, this guy is here to find fault!
