"Sir, the surname Nian doesn't embarrass you, does it?"
Xiaohu, who had been waiting for more than an hour outside the Zijin Captain's Mansion, ran over when he saw Fang Fang being sent out of the Captain's Mansion.
"Nian's surname?"
Fang Fang glanced at Xiaohu and said angrily, "You are still the Minister of the Ministry of War. If you don't respect him, you should at least respect that position!"
"Do I respect him? It's good that I didn't kick him to death. When the Office of Documents came to the door last night, I felt there was something wrong. When someone came to the Duwei Mansion this morning, I knew that Nian had no good intentions!" Xiaohu said with a look. He said nonchalantly, "By the way, sir, you didn't promise anything, did you?"
"No, but it still stopped a little work!"
Fang Fang turned to look at Xiaohu, "Why do I feel like you know Nian Run?"
"Know?" Xiaohu pursed his lips, "Why don't you know him? Do you know which company is behind Nianrun?"
Fang Fang shook his head, Nian family?
No, I have never heard of a family in the Wu Dynasty.
But to say that Nian Run has no one behind him, and that he could take the position of Minister of the Ministry of War before he was forty just because he was born as a princeling, is obviously deceiving people.
"Like me, he came from the Qingyu Army, but his luck was a little better than ours. He is similar in age to the prince and the prince, but in the end he still failed to protect the people he should protect, didn't he?"
Xiaohu didn't have any deep feelings about whether the prince died or not, but the death of the consort was really remembered by Xiaohu. After this experience, how could Xiaohu live a prosperous life?
"You didn't expect this to happen?"
Those who came out of the Qingyu Army were all die-hard loyalists to the Wu Dynasty royal family, and most of them served the royal family after leaving.
Nianrun didn't protect the person he was supposed to protect at that time. No one blamed him. After all, no one wanted to encounter an accident, but no one could accept it emotionally, right?
"No matter what Nian Run says, sir, don't agree to it. Just think of it as farts. This time, it's not Nian Run who really wants you here, but Old Man Xia. He's here to give you money, and his purpose for meeting you is the same as yours, sir." That’s what I thought!” Xiaohu exploded.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!"
After smacking his lips, Fang Fang pressed down Xiaohu's head, "Xiaohu, Xiaohu, you are getting better and better. You are now being used as a thorn for others. Tell me, what have you said to the outside world during this time?"
"I'm not a thorn in the side. The people in the Documents Division will not absorb people from the Qingyu Army, especially those like me who have no seedlings. Let alone the Documents Division, they can only do so much on the battlefield!"
Incense and blood food have influenced people of this era in all aspects.
"okay!"
Pushing Xiaohu's round head away, "The problem of money and food is indeed a big problem. If there is not enough money and food, Hexi will be difficult to defend!"
Xia has contacted me many times. Regarding the situation of the bank's issuance of bonds, it is also in line with the rules for Old Man Xia to ask. At Xia's age, is it really okay to make this trip?
…
Dang, Dang, Dang!
The sound of bells and chimes coexist with the morning glow, and a new day is coming.
The whole Zijin Pass, if you don't notice the various bells, is no different from living in an ordinary city. But after you notice the bells, you will find that all your life time has actually been arranged.
When to get up, when to smoke, when to go out, and when to eat are all communicated by the sound of bells and drums arranged near the streets.
Once you appear in the wrong place at the wrong time, the officers and soldiers patrolling the city will come to your door without even giving you a chance to explain.
"Damn it!"
Looking at the still-yielding sky outside the house, Fang Fang got up from the bed in annoyance.
After being in the city for four days and not being able to sleep well for three mornings, it felt really bad.
"gentlemen!"
There was movement in the house, and Xiaohu, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked in directly with hot water.
After being taken care of by Xiaohu for half a year, Fang Fang also liked it. He looked at the sky again and said, "Why do I feel that the morning bell is ringing a little early today?"
Usually the bells would ring only when the sun climbed over the city wall, but today the red sun only showed half of its face.
"It's half a stick of incense early!"
"Do you know why?"
"Jin Guobei, the person who can make the decision is here." Xiaohu looked sarcastic.
The envoy from the Kingdom of Jin had arrived long ago, and all kinds of things seemed to have been discussed aside. The result was the same as the Wu Dynasty, and no one could make the final decision.
"What do you mean, Wanyan Wenqi is in charge?"
"I haven't received any news yet, but Wanyan Wenqi's enthronement should be on September 9th. If he misses September 9th, he will have to wait until the sixth day of the fourth day of the new year. Most of the people lining up now are thinking about enthroning. Bring things to an end before!"
It is necessary to find a good and auspicious day to ascend the throne. The fourth day of the first lunar month is the best every year, because it is the sixth day. If you really can't get it, choose another good day, such as around the Dragon Boat Festival on May 5th, or on the Double Ninth Festival. It is the day in the calendar when the yang energy of heaven and earth is the strongest.
In the past hundred years, the Jurchens have learned the Han system in everything and imitated the Central Plains. Wanyan Wenqi was the promoter and had his own requirements for the auspicious date of his family's accession to the throne.
As for missing the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, the worst thing is to put the date of changing the year name on that day, the effect will be the same.
"I thought Wanyan Wenqi was so anxious that he forgot all these rules?"
"Isn't this your credit, sir?"
After saying that, both of them laughed.
After laughing, Xiaohu suggested in a low voice, "Our people should arrive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If you have nothing to do today, why don't you go and see the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin entering the city? To be honest, some of the Jurchens' costumes, rules and regulations are still a little bit different? Especially? The Jurchens have been prepared for a long time, so they may have brought a lot of rare things with them!"
The envoys were followed by the business groups, and since the Song Dynasty set a precedent, all countries have followed suit.
In addition, with the mission opening the way, all the trading rules that originally restricted the business group will be opened in due course. This will cause the market to enter a short active period every time the mission comes to visit.
"Okay, let's go out and play together. After today, we won't be free anymore!"
He could refuse Nian Run, but could he, Old Man Xia?
Even though people helped him so much, the equation couldn't open that hole!
…
"Why is the carriage here? What is Wanyan Wenqi planning to do?"
On the city wall, looking at the carriage in the west, Old Man Xia put his hands behind his back, "Does he want to earn a full year's income?"
"Perhaps, during this period of time, various transactions, according to statistics, have exceeded 400,000 taels of silver. The Ming Dynasty caravans made a lot of money. The Jurchens did it on such a large scale. They obviously wanted to earn the money from the Ming Dynasty. Transfer it to your own hands!"
Nian Run was also helpless as he arrived at Old Man Xia three days earlier than the rest of the army due to a mysterious accident.
Too willful.
But what can Nian Run do?
"It's interesting. We pay and they sell goods. We go around for just a little money, but the value of the goods far exceeds what we pay for! This is the economy and the market. If we don't study it, some things in it are really... It’s beyond imagination!” Old Man Xia sighed.
In the past, he only looked at problems on paper, so what might he see?
Since the bottleneck was pierced by the equation, the more he studied, the more interesting it became.
"In the final analysis, some things still have to rely on young people. We have all been put into a basket. No one can help us dig out the hole. No matter how you look at it, it is all within the basket!"
Although Nian Run didn't gain much from the equation, his last sentence actually solved a lot of problems and avoided a lot of trouble.
