Chapter 1: The Great Song Dynasty

Bianliang City, the capital city of the Great Song Dynasty, was built from the five dynasties, and since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, it has been continuously heightened and thickened, making this Bianliang City more majestic and tall, sitting on the edge of the Yellow River, like a giant beast from ancient times, looking at the world and the world.

In Qinghe Villa, twenty miles away from Bianliang City, a tall and burly figure is practicing boxing, and there is a faint sound of breaking the air between punches and kicks, and slowly this figure stopped, thoughtfully, feeling the essence of the boxing just now.

"Whew"

This figure opened his eyes suddenly, let out a long breath, revealing a young and heroic face, starry eyes and sword eyebrows, a burly and strong body, the skin is well maintained, white and clean, a pair of eyes are extremely spiritual, with a sense of vicissitudes different from the age, gestures, revealing a breath of the emperor's nobles, this is now Zhao Shu, the fifth son of Song Huizong, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Congratulations to Your Highness, your fist technique has made great progress, you are only one step away from breaking through the physical body realm and entering the true qi realm, with Your Highness's qualifications, the physical body realm, the true qi realm, and the innate realm are just around the corner, and it is even expected to win the Gang Qi Realm and Yin-Yang Mirror of the martial arts. ”

An old man in a brocade robe stepped forward to congratulate, although it was winter, but this old man was single, his face was ruddy, especially a pair of arms were strong and strong, and he knew that he was a master at a glance.

"Long Bo, you are an old man in the family, and you are a martial artist of the True Qi Realm, so you don't need to praise it like others, the True Qi Realm may be reached, but the Innate Realm is already a realm that countless martial artists dream of, and the Gang Qi Realm is even rarer to achieve, as for the Yin-Yang Mirror or even the legendary realm, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve. ”

Zhao Shu waved his hand and said with a smile, there was no joy in his heart, but there was a trace of solemnity, he had traveled for more than a year, but he could only cultivate martial arts to the current realm, and he was still far from the real martial arts master, and it was a year closer to the time when the Northern Song Dynasty collapsed.

"Is it an old slave's words, His Royal Highness has only practiced martial arts for more than a year, and he has already achieved great physical realm, and he can have such achievements at the age of sixteen, such qualifications, there are very few in the world, and he will definitely be able to reach the realm of martial arts. ”

Lombard said respectfully, without the slightest hypocrisy in his expression, but even more in awe.

"Long Bo, how is the Jiuding Commercial Bank this year? ”

Zhao Shu put on the white daze, turned to Long Bo and asked, this caravan is the key to the wealth of Qinghe Villa, and it is also the source of wealth for his secret accumulation of strength, so there can be no mistakes.

"Your Highness, rest assured, the liquor brewed, the perfumes and the glass made by our firm are already well-known in the Great Song Dynasty, and this year has brought a lot of wealth to Zhuangzi. At the same time, the caravan sent to the north had returned, not only opening up the northern trade routes, but also bringing back a large number of skins.

It's just that the northerners are too strict with the horses, and the frontier is too strict to buy war horses, but fortunately, they defeated the Western Xia and won the Hehuang region, so they continued to buy sixty war horses in 66, but fortunately they were not accepted by the people of the Tai Servant.

As for the Zhuangzi, don't worry, His Royal Highness has exempted the rent and hired a lot of young people, and our Qinghe Villa can be said to be the richest Zhuangzi in the entire Bianliang area. ”

Long Bo chattered and said, his expression was full of joy, especially he was extremely satisfied with this year's harvest, and he admired His Highness's money-making methods.

"There are only sixty horses, or not, it is better than nothing, and if there is nothing to do in winter, I will organize the Zhuang household to practice martial arts diligently, and you must not fall into your temperament, especially the training of horsemanship, you first put the account in my study." ”

Zhao Shu said lightly, and Long Bo stopped being verbose, so he turned around, he came this time to report the harvest of this year's trading house, and sent the accounts to His Royal Highness for the purpose.

"It's been another year! Although this Northern Song Dynasty is different from the Northern Song Dynasty in my memory, but none of those major events are bad, the Jurchens in the north have risen, and the Song Liao collegial council seems to be close ahead, so I have to prepare!"

Zhao Shu looked up at the snowflakes slowly falling from the sky, and the more depressed his heart became, and his eyes slowly turned to a fire unicorn pattern on his arm.

When he crossed over a year ago, this fire unicorn pattern appeared on his arm, and this fire unicorn pattern allowed him to have ordinary martial arts training qualifications, and the more direct effect was that the arm where his unicorn pattern was located was infinitely powerful.

"Qilin, you brought me to this strange Northern Song Dynasty, and asked me to bend over this Northern Song Dynasty prince, but in a few years, this Great Song Dynasty will collapse, and my bent prince will be abused to death by those barbarians, and I will see my brothers and sisters die in humiliation, and the savings of the Han family have been destroyed for generations, how cruel is this. ”

Zhao Shu sighed faintly at this unicorn pattern, and walked into the study to avoid the growing wind and snow.

Approaching the study, I saw Long Bo standing respectfully aside, and the account book was also placed on the table, but Zhao Shu did not pick up the account book, but picked up the "General Essentials of the Martial Classics" on the table, which was a martial arts scripture compiled by the imperial court, recording some key points of cultivation.

Looking at this martial arts, Zhao Shu always had a feeling of dizziness, this Great Song is too different from the Great Song in his previous life, and the only difference is that there are legendary martial arts and immortal arts in this era.

This made me feel incredible, but I had to believe it, because the martial arts scriptures in my hands were always unique to the royal family, and they would only be given to the royal family, or rewarded to some meritorious officials, but the records in it had to be believed.

According to the above records, the martial arts cultivation in this world is the physical body, which is divided into the physical body realm, the true qi realm, the innate realm, the gang qi realm, the yin-yang mirror, and the heavenly and human realms, and there seems to be a higher realm behind, but it is no longer recorded in the martial arts, and even the yin-yang mirror and the heavenly and human realms are only skimmed in a hurry, almost legendary.

And immortal art is to cultivate the divine soul, and there are various methods, but it is nothing more than the ten realms. Fixation, out of the shell, night tour, day tour, exorcism, manifestation, possession, seizure, thunder, yang god.

And the entire Great Song Dynasty cultivated more of the divine soul because of the emphasis on literature and light on martial arts, but the martial arts scriptures always only told the realm of the law of the divine soul, but there was no detailed cultivation method.

In particular, the royal family has regulations that except for the crown prince and the prince, other princes are not allowed to cultivate the Divine Soul Technique, otherwise they will be locked in the Zongren Mansion and will not be allowed to come out forever, and these princes will also be raised as pigs.

Although his identity is the fifth prince, because of his mother's low status, he was only named the prince of the country, and he was not even named the king of the county, and he has not seen his father in the sixteen years since he was born.

When he crossed over, Zhao Shu's mother died early, and he himself lived in the more affluent Green Willow Villa, which was encroached upon by these monks because of the proximity to the monks' land of Daxiangguo Temple.

But Zhao Shu's cowardly temperament is dare not speak out, in the end, as the prince Zhao Shu only sued the Great Xiangguo Temple, but the position of the Great Xiangguo Temple in the Great Song Dynasty is unique, Zhao Shu can not get back the Green Willow Villa at all, and was delayed by the Great Xiangguo Temple.

This Zhao Shu's lawsuit against the prince is a joke in itself, and he has not won yet, and it has become a big joke in the entire Bianliang City, and finally he had to move his only property, Qinghe Villa, but the land of Qinghe Villa is barren, mountainous and less, which makes Zhao Shu's heart knot extremely heavy, and he dies of depression, and lets himself cross over.

This also shows that Zhao Shu's status in the Great Song Dynasty is very pitiful, if it weren't for the prince's inability to leave Bianliang, I was afraid that he would be driven to a more barren place.

These are all Zhao Shu can't get in touch with the method of cultivating the divine soul at all, and even if he does, there is no master to guide him, and he rashly cultivates the method of the divine soul, just afraid that he will end up in a tragic situation of the destruction of the divine soul, and some princes have secretly cultivated the method of the divine soul, in a vain attempt to gain the favor of the Daojun Emperor after cultivating a certain realm.

But without exception, the situation is miserable, some have become demented, some have been distraught and die directly, some have cultivated to be unable to survive and have been confined to the Zongren Mansion, and what is even more tragic is that they have been abolished and degraded to commoners.

Although the method of the divine soul can prolong life, the cultivation is extremely slow, and he has no time to search for this method, and the only way is to practice martial arts.

In particular, Zhao Shu never understood one thing, according to the royal regulations, his cheap father and eldest brother should be masters of immortal arts, especially his father, the legend is that the cultivation is profound and terrifying, but when the Jurchens invaded a few years later, he was captured and locked up in the city of the Five Kingdoms, and died of humiliation.

All of this made Zhao Shu dare not rashly cultivate the Divine Soul Technique, and he could save himself by obtaining the martial arts.

After putting down this martial scripture, he picked up an account on the table and scanned it.

Seeing Zhao Shu pick up the accounts, Long Bo said with a smile: "Your Highness, those people who give happiness are extremely talented in the accounts, because they are outsiders, they are also extremely cautious about the accounts, especially His Highness's new accounting method, which makes these accounts clear." These people who give happiness are all outsiders, homeless and unemployed, and they are accepted by His Royal Highness, and they are even more grateful to Dade. ”

"One million 800,000 taels of silver! The firm has just started, with this result, it is very good, it shows that these shopkeepers and directors are not lazy, you take out a part of the silver taels, as dividends to those shopkeepers and directors, which is regarded as this year's reward. Those who have given pleasure should also be well settled, and do not treat them badly. ”

Regarding the reward and punishment, Zhao Shu still understands that as a prince, he can't interfere in the government, the only thing he can do is to accumulate financial resources, secretly accumulate force, at least when the world falls, he has a trace of self-preservation.

"Your Highness is too generous, these shopkeepers and directors are already very rich, they are already a broken household in Zhuangzi, if it weren't for His Highness to take care of them, I'm afraid they won't even be able to survive this winter. Now that I have this good business, I am already grateful to His Royal Highness. ”

Long Bo said with a smile, he had no opinion on His Highness's reward, and he also praised Zhao Shu in disguise.

"Long Bo, how is the armament in Zhuangzi?"

Zhao Shu put down the account book, his eyes were gently raised to look at Long Bodao in front of him, hearing Zhao Shu's words, Long Bo's face suddenly froze, and he immediately said solemnly: "Your Royal Highness, there are two hundred families in Zhuangzi, three hundred and eighty young and strong people, and thirty-six cavalry horses, this is the family on Zhuangzi, in terms of loyalty, Your Highness can rest assured that the cavalry placement Your Highness's orders are all children."

According to His Highness's orders, the old slave gathered 820 men from among the homeless people to be fully guarded, and these homeless people were honest and reliable, and their families were also placed in various workshops.

They were originally homeless people, if they didn't have His Highness's mercy, they would have starved to death, but now they not only have a job, but their homes have been placed, and they are extremely loyal to His Highness, and they dare not give birth to the slightest disobedience, and they also practice the refining method taught by His Highness day and night.

Half of the young men in the Zhuangzi led them to disperse among the caravans, and as the caravans traveled in all directions, they practiced marching operations without attracting the attention of others. ”

"Well, don't be soft-hearted or slack in these young exercises. I've passed down the method of making iron, and now how much steel is smelted?"

Zhao Shu is also very satisfied with these young men, and they are also the key to dealing with Jin Bing in the future.

We have already established a few blacksmith shops in the hidden places near the junction of Qinghe and Longding Mountain, and forged a lot of steel according to His Highness's method, these steels are excellent, and the forged swords are sharp and strong, several times better than the swords forged by the forging division, and can be called divine weapons.

According to His Royal Highness's orders, the old slave collected the method of forging the horizontal knife and improved it, but although the horizontal knife was sharp, it was extremely steel-consuming, and it was only equipped for the cavalry at present.

In addition to the sword weapons for these guards, only steel ingots and farming tools are currently stored, which does not violate the Song Law, and even Kaifeng Mansion can't say anything, especially Qinghe Villa is the private property of His Highness, and no one dares to come to make trouble. ”

When Zhao Shu heard this, he nodded, very satisfied.
