"Your Majesty, a division led by Yun Changfeng has settled in Liujing City, and the letter of the King of Goryeo has also arrived. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ“

In the imperial study, Qian Dafu was holding the Goryeo national book in both hands, which the post general had just sent back from Goryeo.

It has been more than ten days since he last met with the prince of Goryeo and Huang Zixuan at the Jeongdae Hall of Light, and now he has finally waited for a reply from the king of Goryeo.

"This king of Goryeo is not stupid enough to go home." Xiao Ming got up and looked out the window, from June to July, most of this year has passed.

Overall, he was very satisfied with the results he had achieved this year, first of all, he captured the six cities of Kwantung from the barbarians, a strategy that completely turned the Golden Horde into a nomadic and could no longer confront the Great Yu State head-on.

The second achievement was Goryeo, which lost the protection of the Golden Horde, and finally returned to the normal historical track and was once again reduced to a vassal of the Great Yu State.

"But no, if he doesn't know each other, I'm afraid the emperor will kill him." Qian Dafu said with a smile that at the court meeting that day, he felt that Xiao Ming had saved a killing plan against the king of Goryeo.

"Indeed, I will not allow an unknown Goryeo king to exist, because it will affect the control of Goryeo by the Great Yu Kingdom."

Qian Dafu nodded, "It's just that although Goryeo has been recovered, this Wa State has become a big problem for the Dayu State, and compared to Goryeo, the Wa State is even more difficult to deal with." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Ming laughed, "The Wa State is indeed superior to Goryeo and the Golden Horde in terms of firearms, but there is still a lot of gap compared to my Great Yu State, the only trouble is that this Yamada Nobunaga is very set, he makes the Daimyo and the people of the Wa State very fanatical, some like militarism." ”

"Militarism? What is it? "Qian Dafu is a little incomprehensible.

Xiao Ming pondered for a while, this sentence was not untargeted, but based on the analysis of the secret guard's intelligence.

Because of the existence of science and technology spars, he has also been studying the characteristics of the country, in general, the country has some good characteristics, such as diligence, obedience, loyalty, but the shortcomings are also very obvious, they are subordinate, the island country is narrow-minded, easy to go to extremes, very cruel to other peoples, lack of mercy.

Coupled with the existence of the bushido spirit that penetrates into the souls of the islanders of the Japanese country, this nation can easily be turned into militarism and become a country of robbers in a short time due to the demagogy of politicians.

This was true both for Toyotomi Hideyoshi during the Wanli period and for the invasion during World War II.

According to the records of the Great Yu Kingdom on the Wa Kingdom, the bushido spirit of the Wa Kingdom in this time and space showed many characteristics, the Japanese samurai were arrogant and inferior at the same time, and this inferiority made them pay attention to etiquette on the surface but were actually barbaric and brutal inside, they took pleasure in oppressing the weak, and at the same time showed amazing obedience to the strong.

This is the Wa country he understands, a strange country where if you press him to the ground and rub him, he will call you Daddy.

Therefore, in Xiao Ming's opinion, before the Great Chongqing State did not beat the Japanese State all over the ground, the Japanese State had always despised the Great Chongqing State, even though they knew that the Great Chongqing State might be strong.

After all, the inferior nature of the Japanese country is self-deception, and if you don't see the coffin, you won't cry.

During the contemporary World War II period, the Japanese country dared to directly attack the United States, which is enough to see how big the nerves of this country are.

"The meaning of reckless militarism." Xiao Ming said lightly.

Qian Dafu looked obvious, "You have to have some ability to be a poor soldier, if you don't have the ability, isn't this just nothing to draw for?" ”

"That's right, this Yamada Nobunaga just has nothing to do." Xiao Ming laughed.

The two were talking and laughing, when a small eunuch arrived outside the imperial study and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Li San, the commander of the secret guard, is asking to see you outside the palace." “

"Let him in." Xiao Ming raised his eyebrows, Li San was mainly responsible for the intelligence collection in Dayu.

Whether it is Wang Xuan or Li San, if there is important information, they will come to report to him in person.

After a while, Li San arrived outside the imperial study.

Now Li San is a little fat, and since he married Liuli, Li San's small life is good.

Entering the imperial study, Li San bowed and saluted, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the lower officials found that there was something abnormal in the Cao family's money village, so they immediately went to the palace to report to the emperor. ”

"The Cao family?" Xiao Ming frowned.

Li San continued: "Yes, the emperor wanted to capture the Cao family, just waiting for the Cao family to make a mistake, but I didn't expect that this time it was really the emperor's speculation. ”

Xiao Ming is not surprised, in this era, many officials and businessmen will use the thinking of this era to measure him, but they don't know that Xiao Ming's foresight is much higher than theirs. ‘

Often with a small move, Xiao Ming understands what they are going to do.

Especially the merchants, they couldn't see Xiao Ming's supervising hand, and thought that the imperial court didn't care about their business practices, which was a big mistake.

"What's going on?" Xiao Ming asked

"According to the information obtained by the secret guards, a lot of silver has been transported out of the Cao family's money village today, and according to the words of the money bank, the money bank needs to turn over the silver to other money houses." Li San said.

After a pause, he continued: "And at the same time, Cao Zhengyang is now selling assets in Youzhou and Qingzhou to other businessmen in the name of losing money in the family business. “

"I see." Xiao Ming narrowed his eyes, if it were in the eyes of outsiders, these behaviors of the Cao family were normal, because the turnover of silver was originally a very ordinary thing.

It's just that in the eyes of Xiao Ming and the secret guards, it's different, their behavior is very suspicious, but Xiao Ming doesn't dare to make a decision, if this is just a normal thing, he rashly uprooted Cao Zhengyang is afraid that it will cause criticism from businessmen, so that more businessmen support the king of Chu who is now desperate for westernization.

"In this way, don't startle the snake for the time being, you send people to keep an eye on the merchant ships transporting silver, once the merchant ships try to reach the Chu State, you will immediately take them down with the defenders of Jinling City, and at the same time, you immediately let the secret guards investigate all the Cao family money houses in the north, and once they find similar behavior, then they will immediately seal the Cao family money houses with the guards." Xiao Ming said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li San nodded heavily.

After reporting the incident, Li San turned around and left, at this time Xiao Ming rubbed his eyebrows, in fact, he had expected that there would be today, but he was a little unhappy when it really happened.

Because the behavior of the Cao family proved one thing to him, the merchant will definitely look for every opportunity to claim rights after getting enough money.

Getting up and looking out the window, Xiao Ming thought about it, and he said, "Qian Dafu, what do you think of holding a regular merchant court?" ”

Qian Dafu looked dazed, and he was shocked: "The emperor is ready to compromise with the businessman? ”
