On the sixth day of the sixth day of the fifth year of Zhenghe in the Song Dynasty, more than a month has passed since the "book incident" on the fourth day of the fifth month.

In the Qingcheng Academy outside Kaifeng Prefecture, in a secluded courtyard, the three brothers of the He family were sitting under the shade of the tree. A pot of tea was placed on a small table, each with a palm fan and a book. While reading a book, they were chatting about something.

The three of them have received the imperial edict, and this time they come to Kaifeng Prefecture to resign.

Unlike the last time I went to Beijing to write a book, these three people have been thrown into the corner, and even Si Ye of Qingcheng Academy can't see them.

However, the three heroes of the He family were still able to withstand loneliness. They did not visit friends or visit teachers these days, but just studied in the Qingcheng Academy. They did not read any saints books, but read the "Stories of the Western Regions of the Great Song Dynasty" written by Ji Yi, Li Gang and Mo Li. They read with relish, but the days were passed.

Today, the three He family members gathered together to study again. Suddenly, the second son He Li put down the book in his hand and listened to it. He heard that there was someone slapping the door panel and Qin Hui's Jiangning accent: "Is anyone here? Is Brother Wenzhen here?"

He Lizhan laughed and said, "I know how to do it, come in quickly, the door is not inserted."

With a creaking sound, the gate of the courtyard was pushed open, and two men in Confucian uniforms walked in. One was Qin Hui, who was proud of his youth.

Qin Hui did not participate in the letter on the fourth day of the fifth month because he was a member of the envoy of Wu Haowen to Datong. Naturally, it was difficult to sue his immediate superior.

Moreover, before Wu Haowen went to the mission, he told Qin Hui that he was a close relative. He was the daughter of Wang Zhongshan, the governor of Fuzhou. The grandfather of this Wang Madam was even more amazing. He was Prime Minister Wang Gui.

He was born as a Jinshi and married the prime minister's granddaughter. The future of the officialdom was bright! What's even more rare is that this princess is still a rare beauty. Although he was a little more willful, Qin Hui, who was newlywed, was still extremely proud, and the spring breeze on his face could not be concealed.

The one who came with Qin Hui was a thick and dark middle-aged man. Although he was wearing Confucian uniform, he had no gentle temperament on his body. He had a big beard on his face and fierce eyes, and he looked like a robber pretending to be a scholar.

"This is the Grand Secretary of the Tianli Pavilion of Liang Kingdom!" Qin Hui smiled and introduced the "robber scholar" to the three heroes of the He family.

This person is actually Fengmingshan, the Minister of Liang State in Kaifeng Prefecture and the Grand Secretary of Tianli Pavilion.

"Master Feng, long-awaited, long-awaited."

The three brothers of He stood up one after another and bowed to Fengmingshan.

Fengmingshan and Qin Hui came for business. After marrying Wang Niangzi late, Qin Hui also received a post from the Honglu Temple, responsible for contacting the Liang Kingdom Embassy.

Liang State was just a vassal state and was not a foreign country, so the court did not have much restrictions on the officials of the Liang State Embassy. Therefore, Fengmingshan's request to meet the three brothers of He received permission from the Honglu Temple.

Although no one in the Song Dynasty court believed that the three heroes of the He family could convince Wu Haogu to send troops to attack the Jin Kingdom, Fengmingshan still did not give up.

He came to visit the He brothers today, just to have some fun with them and discuss a plan to jointly lobby Zhou.

"Master Feng," He Li knew about Fengmingshan's purpose and looked at him and asked, "Do you really believe that the three brothers can convince Wu Haogu?"

"Why can't it?" Feng Mingshan grinned, "The top scholar would not think that the great scholars of the Martial Arts would depose the official because of their own private matters, right? You sued Wu Haowen's case, but it was just a private matter. As long as the righteousness was in place, the Martial Arts would definitely participate in the war!"

"Where is the righteousness?" He Li's brother He Tang frowned, "Master Feng means..."

Feng Mingshan smiled and said, "The Jin Kingdom is a barbarian! The Song Dynasty is a Xia Dynasty! We defend the Xia Dynasty and reject the barbarians. The great righteousness lies. Now the Song Dynasty refuses annual monies, does not violate the sentiment or reason, and does not violate the righteousness. The Master said: The descendants do not plan for Xia, and the barbarians do not disrupt China. If the Jin Kingdom sends troops to invade because the Song Dynasty refuses to give annual monies, it is a plan for Xia to disrupt China, which is contrary to the great righteousness of heaven. Therefore, the Martial Saint will definitely send troops to help the Song Dynasty, and there is no doubt about this."

There is also such a reason? Shouldn’t Wu Haogu be a thief who steals the country with ulterior motives? Will he follow the principles? What is the reason for "natives do not plan for Xia, and barbarians do not disrupt China", I am afraid that the Song Dynasty is not so pedantic?

If the Jin Kingdom was willing to join forces with the Song Dynasty to visit Zhou, the Song Dynasty would probably agree without hesitation...

Seeing the three Jinshi generals believing and doubting, Feng Mingshan smiled and said, "Don't doubt three. Although there is no king or father in Zhou State, it has righteousness and great importance to righteousness."

"The Zhou Kingdom values ​​righteousness?" The three heroes of the He family were a little unbelievable. The Zhou Kingdom called it the Republic, but there was no king or father. It was a country of unfaithful and unfilial beasts. Is it also worthy of righteousness?

Grand Secretary Feng nodded and said, "Because the Song Dynasty could rely on the king and father to unite people's hearts and govern the world with filial piety. Subjects regard the king as their father, and the king regards the subjects as their children. If the son is filial to the father and the father is kind, the world will be peaceful.

However, Zhou State has no king or father, and it is important to pay attention to the public as the public. If it is the public, it is righteousness and reason! If the righteousness and reason exist, hundreds of thousands of citizens will be like one person. If the righteousness and reason are lost, hundreds of thousands of citizens will be like scattered sand. Therefore, Zhou State can only be a country of righteousness and reason, and will never sit idly by and watch the barbarians plot against Xia and China."

It is said that the Great Educational Group derived from the Doctoral Order understands Zhou State. Zhou State is not a country completely based on commercial interests, and interests have always been a pillar that supports Zhou State. In addition to "profit", the Great Zhou Republic also has three pillars, including "righteousness", "reason", and "certification", which jointly support the foundation of the Republic.

The so-called "righteousness" is in line with the code of conduct in the "Doctoral Order Version of the Heavenly Rule".

The so-called "reason" mainly refers to the ideals of citizens and the country. A country cannot have only interests or no ideals. Otherwise, it will be a mess! For example, later republics have lofty ideals to fight for the cause of liberation of mankind, so they have super cohesion.

Wu Haogu, who had been educated by the Party for many years, certainly knew the importance of ideals, so the Great Zhou Republic also had ideals. This ideal is that the world is for the public, not the Zhou Kingdom, but the world is for the public.

As for "proof", it is positivism and rationalism. This is not only a tool for pursuing natural philosophy, but also a tool for sociology. It is a tool for thinking about the future and destiny of the republic. It is equivalent to those Confucian principles of governing the country.

The "righteousness" and "reason" of Zhou State determined that this country must stand on the standpoint of defending China and educating barbarians.

"The country of merchants can also be justified? It's incredible!" He Li, the top scholar, shook his head repeatedly, expressing his incredibleness.

Qin Hui, who was standing aside, smiled and said, "Brother Wenzhen is not bad. The big Shang Dynasty has a lot of power. He only wants to make small profits. He picks up sesame seeds and loses watermelons. The big Shang Dynasty who can truly pass on and obtain profits must pay attention to the real price, strive for excellence and be honest and trustworthy. This is the meaning of Shang Dynasty!

Although our scholars always call Wu a profiteer, they still chose Wanjia when buying a house in Kaifeng Prefecture. They are willing to pay part of the house first and then withdraw the house after a year. No one is worried that the house they get is not strong and not durable. No one is worried that the Wanjia Guild will escape with the money. This is actually to admit that Wu is not a traitor, and saying that he is a profiteer is just a joke."

These days, the pre-sale houses are not the common rules of the real estate market, but the unique sales method of Wanjiaxing. Even JD.com, which Ji Yi opened in Kaifeng Prefecture, could not pre-sale pre-sale houses. Because JD.com's ability in construction is still not as good as Wanjiaxing, the Republicanxing behind Wanjiaxing, Tianjin Construction Industry and other commercial banks. They have built a series of markets and countless castles from scratch. They have extremely rich construction experience, and the Yuntai Academy Construction Academy continues to train masters for them.

More importantly, Wanjiaxing's brand has been established. It can obtain a brand premium, have a relatively high sales price, and invest more in construction. It uses the best wood, marl, bricks, and craftsmen produced by Zhouguo, and the quality is also good. The quality is naturally guaranteed. With good quality, it in turn supports the brand premium and forms a virtuous cycle.

In fact, there were many products that were established and obtained premiums in the Song Dynasty. The "Gaozhi" (advertising) business in the big cities of the Northern Song Dynasty was very developed. The "Gaozhi Pictorial" and "Gaozhi Album" published by Wu Haogu's Huagu's Huagu mainly made money by "Gaozhi".

The "Collection of the Palace" and "Collection of the Palace" published by the Courtesan are also famous brands! Not to mention anything else, the beauties in the "Collection of the Palace" and "Collection of the Palace" are both "fidelity", and the people's paintings are consistent and as realistic as possible. They will not paint someone beautifully in order to make her famous.

In addition to the "Wine House", the Courtesan, the Wine Fairy, Christie's, Tianjin Ash, Tianjin Cloth, Tianjin Paper, Yanshan Iron, Yanshan Wood, Jiehe Boat, Tianjin Bank, etc., as well as various weapons made in Tianjin, all of which are famous brands!

After Qin Hui said this, He Li and He Zhuangyuan also wanted to see the Great Zhou Dynasty with their own eyes.

Feng Mingshan smiled and said, "Is there any righteousness in Zhou State? Let's go and see it with your own eyes, won't you know?"

He Li smiled and said, "My brother is going to use Zhou. Although he may not convince Wu Haogu, it is also good to see Zhou's meaning."

Qin Hui also smiled and said, "Yes, yes, it's better to go and see it. The three of you must have a teacher when you walk. The Zhou Kingdom can be so strong, and there must be something good. If you can get one or two of them and use them for our dynasty, you might also add icing on the cake to the prosperous age of the Song Dynasty!"

Qin Hui actually didn't believe that the strategy of destroying gold in all directions could work. Because he had heard a little news, Wang Fu, the minister stationed in Tianjin, is now seeking to buy fresh sheep, good horses and grassland cattle from the grasslands in the northern desert...all of them are sky-high prices, and he will also purchase wheat produced in Liaodong for exchange for fresh sheep, good horses and grassland cattle.

After a cycle of reincarnation, it can be said that all aspects of profit were gained. The government had eaten the sky-high beef and mutton, the Jin Kingdom received the flour that was relief, and the Zhou Kingdom sold the squeezed Liaodong flour.
