Time passed very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was already April of the 10th year of Jingkang.

Mei Zhili hurried to Wende Hall.

"Your Majesty, this is the summary of all the confiscations. The total amount is 3.3 million yuan."

When Mei Zhili said these words, he couldn't help but smile on his face.

Mei Zhili: I have received strict training and I promise not to laugh unless...

"I know." Zhao Ning was reading the report sent by Zhang Jun from Mingzhou.

Zhang Jun is now doing business with Japan honestly in Mingzhou, dumping Song Dynasty products to Japan.

Zhang Jun is an extremely exaggerated person, and he starts bragging before things are done.

The content of this memorial is how awesome he is in Mingzhou, and he wishes he could make millions today.

At this time, Zhang Shuye hurried to Wende Hall.

"Your Majesty, the latest report came from the southwest."

"Dali?" Zhao Ning opened it, thought about it, and said after a moment, "Gao Liangcheng is quite a man."

He stood up, walked to the map, made a few gestures with his hands, and asked Zhang Shuye: "What do you think about Gao Liangcheng's surrender?"

"Your Majesty, our country has always had a good relationship with Dali. Dali respects our country. Now that Gao Liangcheng has surrendered, we have lost the reason to continue fighting. If we continue to use force, the difficulty will increase, but...

"

"but what?"

"But the army has already arrived in Dali. How can they withdraw casually?"

"I can't let Wu Lin stay in Dali country all the time. He is the protector of Annan."

"Then let Wu Lin withdraw to Annan, let Fan Zongyin take over, and then select famous generals from the northwest to Dali."

Zhao Ning asked: "What's the reason for continuing to garrison troops?"

"Let's just say that at the beginning of the development of banknotes, someone needed to maintain order."

This reason is pretty fucked up, but it’s really hard for Dali to refuse.

The reason given by the strong is itself used to give everyone a step down, it does not exist because it is reasonable.

It should be said that in this case, the reason for fucking is reasonable!

"What about the Dali Imperial Court?"

Zhang Shuye then said: "Your Majesty can let the best of the nobles of Dali come to Tokyo to study. After studying for a few years, they will be attracted to the Song Dynasty."

Zhao Ning began to think deeply again. He thought about it, and finally said: "Not only that, but also tempting with benefits. I heard that the Yang family of Dali is very cooperative this time, printing more money, as long as it is Yang family's tea,

We’ll pay double the price.”

Zhang Shuye immediately understood what the Zhao Guan family meant: to divide and win over the nobles within the Dali Kingdom.

The so-called double price is a false proposition for the Song Dynasty.

From the moment Dali State accepted the handover of banknotes, Dali State had fallen into the hands of the Song Dynasty economically.

Because the banknotes currently used in Dali during the Song Dynasty were all printed.

Mei Zhili took over the topic and said: "If you trade tea with Dali at high prices, most people in Dali will inevitably start growing tea and transport grain from Chengdu to sell to Dali. In a few years, we will cut off all ties with Dali."

Dali's trade and domestic affairs will inevitably face a food crisis and a surplus of tea."

Zhao Ning couldn't help but glance at Mei Zhili. This guy usually acted seriously and gave people a stereotyped feeling.

But once it comes to settling accounts, buying and selling, it's like a different person.

"What Shangshu Mei said makes sense." Zhang Shuye said, "If you buy tea at twice the current price and sell grain at half the price of Dali, there will soon be no one in Dali to grow food, but everyone will

To plant tea leaves, even if Duan Zhengyan knew this was our strategy, he would have nothing to do."

"That's it." Zhao Ning picked up his pen and began to write something for the Zhengshitang, which was the next policy for Dali Kingdom.

Once this happens, Duan Zhengyan will face domestic famine and he will have to kneel down and beg for mercy.

If nothing else happens, we can now prepare a batch of banknotes to be transported to Dali.

The amount of tea produced from Dali this year is at least twice that of previous years.

Although April has entered early summer, Fuzhou is still like March in the south.

Yu Yunwen rode a horse and led people to the area of ​​​​the market.

There are already some businessmen in the market here.

Most of these merchants are still Han Chinese, but they do not sell these goods to Linzhou, but to the Mongols on the grasslands outside the customs.

For people in the Song Dynasty, the outside of the grassland was an extremely mysterious and dangerous place.

The people there eat raw hair and drink blood, and are not considered human beings at all.

However, since Yu Yunwen started to open a market in Fuzhou last year, a group of business travelers have been active in this area.

In human society, no matter how dangerous the place is, as long as it is profitable, there will always be some people who want to make money.

These are the people right now.

Yu Yunwen came over with his people, and the crowd made way for them.

"what happened?"

Five people were lying on the ground, each of them injured, a stab wound.

"This is Yu Yunwen and Yu Zhizhou. If you have anything to say, just say it."

The merchants immediately said: "Yu Zhizhou, we were attacked by barbarians on the way to transport tea this time, and many of us were killed."

"This is impossible!" Yu Yunwen said, "I sent people to talk to their leaders before. As long as we can sell tea to them, they are willing to trade with us for a long time."

"These are all true, we would never dare to deceive Yu Zhizhou!"

"These barbarians don't keep their word!" Liu Yi, a soldier from Fuzhou who joined the army, said angrily.

"Let's find a doctor to treat these people first." Yu Yunwen said, "I will give you an explanation about this matter, so don't worry!"

After saying that, Yu Yunwen hurriedly left with the people.

"Yu Zhizhou, if it is really those barbarians who did it, I am afraid that no businessmen will dare to go out anymore." Liu Yi said, "These businessmen were hesitant before, and they were willing to take risks for the sake of making money."

"I know."

"What should we do now?"

Yu Yunwen looked back at him and said, "Since the barbarians dare to publicly tear up our agreement, they should naturally seek justice."

"But we don't have troops."

"Go to Wu Shuai and borrow it!"

"But our mission is to win over those barbarians. If we take action..."

Yu Yunwen said angrily: "We are indeed trying to win over them, but we are not begging them in a low voice! Some people are barbarians who are afraid of power and have no morals. If you don't kill them, they will take advantage of them!"

While talking, Yu Yunwen returned to Fuzhou and rushed to Wu Jie's mansion.

Wu Jie was enjoying the rare "spring scenery" at this time, with a happy smile on his face.

Just when he was at his most exciting, Guo Hao's voice suddenly came from outside: "Wu Shuai! Wu Shuai!"
