A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

When people are older and more open-minded, they can laugh at themselves.

But more old people can't let go that their lives have entered the second half, so they are taboo about some statements.

For example, hanging one's life.

Hanging one's life in Chinese medicine actually stimulates life potential, making you hang on, waiting for someone's return, and only after taking one last look, can you leave with satisfaction.

This is hanging one's life.

The old man would feel disgusted after hearing these words. For example, Zeng Gongliang was speechless at the moment.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Hearty laughter echoed in the hall, Han Qi came out and said: "Shen An, is this thing really so effective?"

The application of ginseng is not widespread at this time. To put it bluntly, even if you carry a bunch of 9,000-year-old ginseng around Bianliang City, you may come back and it will be of no use.

And in later generations, if you walk around with a fifty-year-old wild ginseng, as long as it is verified to be true, you are guaranteed to get a head start.

Shen An actually didn't know the many functions of ginseng, but he had seen too many in various works. In a certain TV series, a person was dying, but he missed his son, so he asked a doctor for help. The doctor carefully took out half of the old ginseng and cut a few slices for him to make soup. After drinking it, the man actually managed to hold on.

Those directors won't cheat me, right?

Shen An thought for a moment, then smiled, "Of course."

Han Qi's eyes shone, "I want them all."

"Old man!" Zeng Gongliang was angry, "Aren't you afraid of dying with so much blood?"

Bao Zheng scolded: "Your Majesty is still there, why are you robbing him?"

Ahem!

Zhao Shu coughed twice to indicate his presence.

Everyone went back to work in disbelief.

If there are good things, the officials have to choose them first!

Why!

The loyal minister's face is gone and his personality has collapsed. How long will it take to build it up again?

Shen An laughed so hard that he wanted to cramp. When he saw Zhao Shu's face, he said, "Don't worry, your majesty. Goryeo has agreed to send a batch of good ginseng as tribute every year. Then you can stew it and eat it if you want." It’s fine to eat it shredded, and it tastes good to eat raw with dipping sauce...”

Zhao Shu was moved.

Collect more of these good things and use them at critical times. That will be a magic weapon!

These days, once they become seriously ill, some patients are unable to speak. For example, the late emperor Zhao Zhen had an illness and was unable to speak. Han Qi stood by and said that he wanted Zhao Shu to succeed him. The late emperor was so angry that he wanted to spit on his face.

But the emperor’s eating appearance shouldn’t be too ugly!

So Zhao Shu said calmly: "In this case... I will wait for the tribute from Goryeo."

He felt that Shen An would try to persuade him again, and if he agreed again, he would get the best of both worlds.

But Shen An said happily: "That's right. The official saint is in good health. It's better for me to take this thing home. My Huahua is getting old now, so I thought about leaving a part of it at least."

"absurd!"

Fu Bi said angrily: "How can a dog compare with a human?"

While collecting the ginseng, Shen An said, "You don't know, Mr. Rich, that in my family, Huahua is a family member. Especially my sister-in-law, Huahua grew up with her..."

There is so much ginseng now. If we take it from the north, the amount of ginseng will make you doubt your life.

But we must develop sustainably!

Shen An was thinking about how to set the rules. Zhao Shu frowned and said, "We have been talking for a long time, but we haven't said anything about the mission yet."

Shen An put the baggage away and said, "Your Majesty, I went to Goryeo this time, and I promised to give Goryeo 50,000 guan as a gift."

"This is a trivial matter." Zhao Shu spoke very grandly, a bit like a rich man.

He was startled immediately, remembering the embarrassment he had felt when his hands were tight a few years ago. Why! It is really difficult for this person to go from extravagance to frugality!

"Wang Hui wants to buy weapons, and I agreed. If the Koreans want swords, guns, swords and halberds, just buy them."

"This..." Zeng Gongliang said: "Isn't this inappropriate? What if the Koreans turn against the Song Dynasty? Isn't that staking the enemy?"

"If Goryeo dares to show his teeth, then break his front teeth!" Han Qi said disdainfully: "I'm not bragging. In places like Goryeo, I can dominate with 10,000 people."

Shameless!

Zeng Gongliang's eyes twitched, feeling that Han Qi was becoming more and more shameless.

Ten thousand people can conquer Goryeo. This boast is boundless.

The Liao people were so talented back then, but they were still helpless against the mountainous terrain of Goryeo, and in the end they had no choice but to withdraw their troops.

"Goryeo is not simple!" Zeng Gongliang said: "Back then, the Liao people also vowed to destroy Goryeo, but what happened next? I thought that the enemy should not be underestimated."

"Ahem!"

Zhao Shu felt that these ministers were a bit out of tune, "Korea has surrendered now. It's not good for you to wait here and discuss how to attack!"

Han Qi said sarcastically: "Yes."

He wanted to make meritorious deeds too much. No, it should be said that I really want to leave my name in history.

Destroy a country, and the history of the country will be written in a special book. If you destroy another country, the history of the country will probably have to write hundreds of words for me, right?

"Your Majesty, I think it is not a bad thing to discuss it at this moment."

Shen An disagreed with Zhao Shu's view.

"This is a vassal." Zhao Shu felt that Shen An had gone to Goryeo and seemed to be even more rogue.

"Your Majesty, I thought that the vassal status would change. For example, in the past, Jiaozhi paid tribute and became a vassal at first. But then the Central Plains became unstable, and Jiaozhi became ambitious and wanted to conquer it. It can be seen that the vassal is not a vassal, but it only has a good reputation, but at critical times it fails If it doesn't work, it will bite the owner back."

He thought of many things that happened later, and couldn't help but sneered: "So I think that these things should be prepared on a regular basis. The Privy Council and the Sanya can make deductions for the attack on Goryeo. If the time changes, troops can be sent out immediately."

"Absurd!" Zhao Shu felt that this idea was too much.

"Your Majesty, everything is planned in advance!" Shen An said: "I went to Goryeo this time. The kings and ministers of Goryeo seemed to be respectful, but in fact they had their own little plans. Wang Hui was watching, hoping to get a piece of the pie during the Song-Liao war!"

"He has so much courage?" Zhao Shu couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

"I dare to say that if the situation changes drastically during the Song-Liao War, the Koreans will definitely take action."

Shen An said so categorically that Zhao Shu pondered.

"I know your views on foreign affairs..." Zhao Shu suddenly asked: "If the Song Dynasty is unstoppable in the next battle...will the Koreans still dare to take action?"

"Of course they will do it!" Shen An said that Wang Hui was as confident as a puppet he controlled.

"Why?" Zhao Shu's eyes were dark, thinking that Shen An would also brag. This is not a good sign!

As long as the ministers learn to brag, they basically let themselves go.

If you don’t believe it, just look at Han Qi. Old Han is a model of letting himself go.

One Han Qi is enough, but if Shen An is added, Zhao Shu feels that his life will be short.

"Your Majesty, Goryeo proposed a loan, and I agreed to two million dollars!"

"What?"

Han Qi was angry, "The money in the Song Dynasty is tight, how can I lend them two million yuan? You are a lion, just wait for Han Jiang to fight for you."

"Two million dollars!" Zeng Gongliang said sadly: "The expenses of the court this year are higher than last year, and the cement road has to be built. I met Han Jiang yesterday and saw blisters at the corners of his mouth. , I can’t even bother to pick out the big lumps of eye excrement in my eyes. What a hard work it is.

When he learned that Sansi had also received two million guan, he might have vomited blood on the spot! "

Zhao Shu took a deep breath, "Why do you need to borrow so much? Two to three hundred thousand guan is enough. With two million guan, the Song Dynasty has no surplus food!"

Han Qi said, "Your Majesty, why don't you regret it?"

Zhao Shu shook his head, "It's not enough to keep your word. For people, if you don't keep your promise, others will not take your promises seriously. For the country, if you don't keep your promise, no one will be able to make any promises made by your messengers. Believe it. Who can bear such consequences?"

Our ancestors are not stupid. Between breaking promises and keeping promises, why should we advocate keeping promises? Even praise a promise worth a thousand pieces of gold.

It’s because the consequences of breaking one’s trust are more serious.

He looked at Shen An and sighed: "That's it...that's it. I will search the palace and then go to the clan to talk to them and find a way."

This official is really good. At this time, he still wants to plug the hole instead of getting angry.

Shen An said: "Your Majesty, the interest rate is high!"

He looked so proud that Zhao Shu couldn't help but frown, "What's the use of high interest rates? I'm just worried about what will happen if they don't pay back!"

"We have to pay it back!" Shen Anle said, this is what he was thinking about.

"Why?" The corners of Zhao Shu's eyes were twitching, and anger was gathering. If Shen An couldn't tell the truth, he would have to deal with people today.

"Your Majesty, do you know what Wang Hui is going to do with the loan of two million yuan?" Shen An said proudly: "Buy weapons!"

Damn it!

Han Qi was no longer calm, "Why does Goryeo need so many weapons? Who are they trying to fight? The Liao people are invading? That's just a lie. Whoever believes it is stupid. Could it be that... I really want to take a share of the war between us and the Liao people?" soup?"

Zhao Shu also figured it out, "Goryeo also produces weapons, but the two million weapons must be used to expand the army, and the original army will probably need to replace its weapons. Wang Hui is very ambitious!" "

Two million weapons were enough to redress the Goryeo army.

"What a great gesture!" Zeng Gongliang said vigilantly: "Your Majesty, the navy must be wary of Goryeo. In addition, if there is a war next time, I think we should be wary of Goryeo taking advantage of the situation!"

Zhao Shu nodded, "I know."

He looked at Shen An, "What else?"

"The interest is 3 cents, for a period of two years. If the interest is overdue, the interest will be compounded..." Shen An smiled innocently, but Zhao Shu and others felt a chill go down their spines.

"It's profitable!"

Why do loan sharks ruin your home? High interest is one thing, but what is even more powerful is compound interest.

"You actually put usury in Korea?"

Han Qi felt that Shen An was really a weirdo, no, he was a little expert at digging holes.

"Wang Hui is very grateful for this." Shen An said with a righteous face: "This is not the minister's bewitchment. Wang Hui also got a clan girl to seduce the minister. It's just that the minister is strong-willed and refuses to be corrupted. stick……"

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Shu felt a little headache after hearing him express his merit for himself.

Bao Zheng suddenly asked: "How much profit can there be from selling weapons?"

This is the core issue!

Shen An glanced at Han Qi and others and felt that these sticks really missed the point.

"Your Majesty, I have calculated the price of the weapons sold to the Koreans. I can earn 70%."

I go!

Zhao Shu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

"Seventy percent?"

so many?

"At least 70%." Shen An was very proud.

"Where did you calculate the price based on?" Bao Zheng felt that Shen An was a little confused.

Sure enough, Shen An said: "Izumo Temple!"

Bao Zheng shouted: "Evil beast! The weapons in Izumo Temple are 30% higher than those outside!"

ah!

Shen An really didn't care about this. He just saw that Gao Li wanted to buy weapons, so he calculated them based on the 'factory price' of Izumokan.

The one outside is actually three points cheaper than the one at Izumokan?

It’s developed!
