Zhuo Qun looked at the large pile of Buddha statues made of various materials in front of him, including Buddha's teeth, bones and relics of eminent monks, and seemed a little embarrassed.
"Why did you bring these things to me?"
Zhuo Qun asked looking at Zhao Heng sitting opposite.
"These are all good things we collected. We just wanted to show you and ask if you want them."
Zhao Heng said while playing with a palm-sized mutton-fat white jade statue of Guanyin.
"There are too many of these things, and you can't buy them for much money."
Zhuo Qun looked at several white jade statues as tall as one person and said.
"You can say it's worth as much as you want, but it can't be less than two billion."
Zhao Heng put forward his request.
"Two billion won't work. It's too much money. The maximum is 800 million."
Zhuo Qun looked at several pure gold statues inlaid with the Seven Buddhist Treasures and said.
"Then it will be 1.8 billion."
"Nine billion."
"Five billion."
"A billion."
"1.2 billion, it can't be lower."
Zhao Heng gritted his teeth and said.
"Okay, deal, 1.2 billion is 1.2 billion, where do you want to put the money?"
Zhuo Qun asked, looking at the statues.
"Just like before, leave it in your bank. I'll charge interest for a few years. Besides, I don't have that much money over there right now."
Zhao Heng has no place to store so much money now. After all, the Zhao Song royal family already has five to six billion in money. If he takes it back, he can only leave it dry, but if he puts it in a modern bank, he can still earn interest for one year. The interest is also hundreds of millions, which is enough money for the Zhao and Song royal family.
"By the way, something seems to have happened to your people over there."
Zhao Heng looked at Zhuo Qun and whispered.
"What happened? Why didn't I know?"
Zhuo Qun thought about it but couldn't remember anything.
"It seems that one of your people has been captured by those wealthy families to be their son-in-law."
"Pfft~, what did you say?"
Zhao Heng's words made Zhuo Qun spit out all the tea in his mouth.
"The son-in-law has been arrested. I mean your man has been arrested and used as the son-in-law."
Zhao Heng said word by word.
"Whose person?"
Zhuo Qun asked.
"One of Sima's men was captured and made to be his son-in-law."
Zhao Heng said with a smile.
"What do you plan to do when you recruit me?"
Zhuo Qun looked at Zhao Heng and asked.
"I am very simple. I hope you can allow intermarriage and allow those who are married to live in our place."
Zhao Heng means that he wants to absorb the modern population.
Zhuo Qun even suspected that those who dared to capture the son-in-law were arranged by Zhao Heng and others for the sake of the modern population. After all, these people were regarded as highly educated talents in their eyes. Those people had at least received compulsory education for the ninth year of the Chinese New Year. , there are even high school students and college students inside.
There is also a better understanding of the modern world through those people. After all, no matter how hard the people of the Northern Song Dynasty studied, they were still a little behind. These modern people can point out where they fell short, and some people can even help them correct some of their mistakes.
Zhuo Qun dismissed Zhao Heng absentmindedly and immediately asked someone to find out the situation.
Zhuo Qun returned to the office and kept walking around. Tang Xiaoxiao asked after watching him keep walking for more than ten minutes.
"What's wrong with you? What happened?"
"Does your army allow falling in love at the station?"
Zhuo Qun replied.
"No, what's wrong?"
Tang Xiaoxiao looked at Zhuo Qun and said.
"Zhao Heng came to see me just now, you know."
"I know. I also brought a lot of Buddha statues with me. I saw that there are quite a few of them that are encrusted with jewels. They are so luxurious. When the light is applied, they sparkle and look really beautiful."
Sure enough, as long as you are a woman, you will definitely like shiny things.
"I gave him 1.2 billion to take them all. I estimate that these things can be sold for at least tens of billions in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Among them is a white jade Guanyin with Thousand Arms and Thousand Eyes over five meters high. The statue, which is inlaid with the Seven Buddhist Treasures, would be worth at least tens of billions of RMB if placed in Taiguo, or even higher."
When Zhuo Qun talked about those Buddha statues, he immediately became excited. After all, he had made a lot of money this time.
"Then Zhao Heng made a lot of money, didn't he? After all, he got so much money for nothing."
Tang Xiaoxiao's focus was completely different from Zhuo Qun's, but these words were like a knife stabbing Zhuo Qun's heart.
"How could I forget this!"
Zhuo Qun said, covering his chest.
"By the way, what you just asked about love affairs in the army is going on."
Tang Xiaoxiao asked as he watched Zhuo Qun drink water.
"The Northern Song Dynasty robbed our people of their marriage."
Zhuo Qun looked at Tang Xiaoxiao who was drinking water and took a step back.
"Pfft~, cough, they are all men!"
Tang Xiaoxiao covered his mouth and coughed.
"It's just that the man was robbed."
Zhuo Qun glanced sideways at Tang Xiaoxiao.
"A man is being robbed of his bride, what kind of rhythm is this?"
Tang Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa.
"Isn't this what I'm worried about now?"
Zhuo Qun sat next to Tang Xiaoxiao and said.
"That's what you have to do."
Tang Xiaoxiao said while leaning on the back of the sofa.
"I've sent people to collect information. I'll go find Li Chang tomorrow."
Zhuo Qun said while rubbing his temples.
"Where is he in Yangcheng now?"
Tang Xiaoxiao naturally stood up and helped Zhuo Qun rub his temples.
The next day, Zhuo Qun took the information, took Xiaozhuang and Lao Pao to Yangcheng, found Li Chang, and handed him the relevant information.
Li Chang looked through the information. After a long time, he put the information down, lit a cigarette, and started smoking.
"What are you going to do?"
Li Chang asked after finishing his cigarette and looking at Haizhu Square below.
"I don't know now. You have to know that in my opinion, the most important thing for us now is to increase our main population. You know, although my time and space points have been used now, there are already more than 80 million ”
Zhuo Qun stood behind Li Chang and said.
"More than eighty million space-time points? What does that mean?"
Li Chang turned around and asked.
"With 100 million space-time points, a space-time gate can be completely anchored. With 100 million space-time points, a second different world can be opened. And our current population..."
Zhuo Qun sighed.
"It's not enough. Our current population is not enough to open up the second world."
Li Chang pinched off the cigarette butt and said.
"We need at least two billion people to develop the world of the Song Dynasty. In my opinion, it is best for the population of the Northern Song Dynasty to become one of us. At least the Han people of the Northern Song Dynasty and Liao Kingdom, as well as some sinicized ethnic groups, can be absorbed. There are at least over 100 million of these people, and we can absorb them in just a few years."
Zhuo Qun frowned and said.
"But their population will grow significantly in a short period of time. After all, it is normal for a family there to have three or five children."
"Does this have anything to do with what we're talking about?"
Li Chang asked.
"In the Northern Song Dynasty and its surrounding countries, there were probably millions more women than men. But in modern times, there are more men than women."
After Zhuo Qun finished speaking, he shut up.
