"Excuse me, I believe it, official. Well, back to the point, I will give you three days to think about it, and then the wasps will listen to it, and if you regret it, the big officials can only endure the pain and cut their love! ”
Seeing that Fu Ji was really about to be said to be in a hurry, Hong Tao had a straight face, sat upright and pulled the topic back, his words were extremely cold, and he gave Fu Ji an ultimatum, which can be regarded as a reminder. As long as you listen to your plan, you have to accept your fate, otherwise the wasp tail needle will not only hurt, this wasp is not the other wasp.
“…… Ji Zida and the official learned abacus and Arabic numerals, and he is willing to be driven by the official, since the wasp can listen to Ji can also listen! To say that this woman Fu Ji is really smart, she didn't leave to think, she only thought about it for a few minutes before raising her head, and her tone was extremely firm.
Or a kind of self-confidence, in her opinion, what the wasp can do can naturally be done, with the intelligence of the colt, she should not let herself be an assassin or bodyguard.
"Alright then, come with me to the study." From Fu Ji's determined face, Hong Tao seemed to see that countless people would lose their property, family, dignity, and even life, and I hope it was all worth it.
“…… Why isn't the wasp there......" When she arrived at the door of the study, Fu Ji hesitated a little, as if the wasp who could take her life had become a protector again, and this colt was more dangerous.
"He's not qualified to listen to this yet, you're the first, honor, right? The better is still to come, we may be able to work together to do something you can't even think of, although the process is a bit dirty and dangerous, but I think you should be able to understand that the greater the risk, the higher the return. What, you've changed your mind again? It's too late to change now, and once I do, it'll be too late! ”
Hong Tao didn't plan to let the wasp be the executioner at all, and he didn't need to do it at all. As long as Fu Ji changes, neither the emperor nor the prime minister can spare her.
Don't say it's a woman in this matter, even if it's a civil official, they won't be soft when it's time to silence it. The oath of not killing the doctor is in vain, and there is a limit to the oath thing.
Since entering the study, Fuki has entered a fairy tale world, and the things that the pony says are both mysterious and terrifying, both fascinating and creepy.
The horse is really crazy, who would come up with such a vicious plan for normal people, this is no longer harming people but harming the country, or two countries harming together.
But this kind of harm to others is not to harm others and not to benefit oneself, put aside the empty concepts of national and national righteousness, the real benefits are very big, so big that Fu Ji can't even think of how big it is.
"Together, we will open up new industries, such as new energy, chemicals, steel, machinery. These new industries, which can be used both for civilian and military purposes, have been the mainstream of this country and the world from now on, and people will not be able to do without them every day, every hour, every moment. You will become one of the leaders of these new industries, and the price you will have to pay may be significant, but the rewards will also be great. ”
This is Hong Tao's concluding remarks, and there are mostly flickering elements, but the main point is still reliable. Ideas can change a nation and a country, and so can science and technology. When the living environment changes, people's minds naturally change, which is also human nature.
Mobile phones are better than wired telephones, color TVs are more comfortable than black-and-white televisions, cars can be pulled faster than horse-drawn carriages, guns are more powerful than bows and arrows, and cavalry can't beat tanks...... They can't speak, but they change the human mind all the time.
"What should Ji do?" Fu Ji already has a certain understanding of what the new industry is, and if she can really make a candle out of a small bug, it is indeed a big deal.
There are also iron stoves that can be moved at will, lamp oil that can be as cheap as water, and fertilizer that can help crops thrive, all of which are no smaller than candle business when taken out individually.
But after listening to Hong Tao's story, I found that these transactions seemed to be not worth mentioning, not to mention the kind of flower paste that can make people feel dizzy. If all this can come true, he will gain even more than the horse promised. What are the risks...... Automatically filtered.
"At present, the only product we have in our hands is the scriptures, and I want to use it as a stepping stone to meet some merchants of Western Xia and Liao. But I can't come in person, and you're going to associate with them instead of me. "How to import flower paste to Western Xia and Liao, Hong Tao already has a preliminary plan, which will be divided into two parts.
First, through the border towns and markets, drugs are exported to the two countries in the name of legitimate trade routes. The advantage of doing this is that it is relatively convenient and safe, and the disadvantage is also obvious, and it is easy to be controlled by the other government. As long as they find something wrong, they can cut off the supply in minutes.
Those who are afraid of others are forbidden to do it alone.
This is the official interpretation of Yu in the Han book, from which it can be concluded that the concept of monopoly existed in ancient times. However, it is not a monopoly store for goods, but a monopoly trade place between countries.
It is also inaccurate to say this, it should be said that it is a border trade place between the Central Plains Dynasty and the surrounding enemy countries, with a certain economic control function.
The Central Plains Dynasty was far more economic, technological, and material than the surrounding countries, and some goods were the necessities of nomadic life, such as tea. Through the trade of the Central Plains, the Central Plains Dynasty could contain each other economically, which was also a kind of preferential treatment for the nomads.
In the event of a war between the two sides, the Central Plains Dynasty would close the field and cut off the enemy's source of goods. This type of transaction is not two-sided, but unilateral, because the nomads' demand for the Central Plains Dynasty is a rigid need, and vice versa.
There is also a kind of border trade between countries called mutual markets, which is not a means of economic sanctions, but real trade, which is normal border trade between two friendly countries.
The Northern Song Dynasty court attached great importance to the policy of the war, and indeed reduced the number of border wars in this way. The more representative is the fourth year of Qingli, although Xia Jingzong Li Yuanhao won many battles, but because of the war with the Northern Song Dynasty, all the border fields were closed, trapped in the domestic economic pressure had to swear to submit, the Northern Song Dynasty court restored his official title, in the security army and Gao Pingqi reopened the field.
By the time of Shenzong, the Northern Song Dynasty and Western Xia had developed to five, all of which were in Qinfeng Road, namely Qinzhou, Xizhou, Hezhou, Minzhou and Tongyuanjun.
There are more battles with Liao, and both sides have them. The Liao State set up five, namely Zhuozhou New Town, Shuozhou Chengnan, Zhenwu Army, and Yongqing. There are four relatively large and fixed sides of the Northern Song Dynasty, Xiongzhou, Bazhou, Ansu Army, and Guangxin Army, which are called Hebei Siyu. In addition, there are many temporary small farms, which are open and closed.
The reason why both sides set up a field for each other is mainly related to the Tanyuan Alliance. It was the Liao State that won the war, so the idea of setting up a field was a hard condition put forward by them. It can be seen that the nomads really need the goods of the Central Plains, and it is too difficult to grab them.
Shen Kuo once introduced that the border trade between the Song Dynasty and the Western Xia was like chicken ribs, and it was a pity that it was tasteless to abandon it, because the types of goods that the Western Xia could exchange for were too few.
When it comes to Western Xia, there is often the impression that the water and plants are abundant. That's right, in the area where Xingqing Mansion is located, there is Helan Mountain as a barrier in the west, and the Yellow River water irrigation in the east, the terrain is flat and the land is fertile, and the climate is suitable for farming.
Further to the west, there is the Liangzhou Plain, which is the key point of the ancient Silk Road, connecting the countries of the Western Regions, and is rich in horses, located on the border of Han and Qiang, and the people are fierce and not afraid of death. Since ancient times, Liangzhou fine horses have been rampant all over the world, and the history is known as "Liangzhou horses, rampant in the world".
But don't be fooled by these beautiful words, more than two-thirds of the land in Western Xia is all plateaus and deserts, the population is not as concentrated as the farming people in the Central Plains, the productivity is relatively backward, and it is impossible to meet the needs of production and life by relying entirely on domestic materials.
Aside from horses, camels, salt, animal skins, and some imported goods from the countries of the Western Regions, there weren't many exchange materials that could be obtained.
There is no shortage of green salt in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is also a government forbidden material, so it will not be imported in large quantities. There was no shortage of imported goods in the Northern Song Dynasty, although the Silk Road was controlled, but there was also a maritime Silk Road, and the imported goods trafficked by Arab and Southeast Asian maritime merchants were dozens of times more than the income from land trafficking.
Animal fur was indeed needed in the Northern Song Dynasty, but it was not a necessity of life, nor was it an exclusive specialty, and the Tibetan and Liao kingdoms also used this kind of goods to trade with the Song Dynasty, and the Western Xia could not monopolize it.
Looking around, it seems that only horses and camels are in demand, but the Western Xia government does not dare to provide them in large quantities. In this era, war horses must be important military materials, and if the well-equipped Song Dynasty forbidden army has enough cavalry, the military advantage of Western Xia will suddenly come to naught. This was not only understood by the Western Xia, but also by the Liao.
