As for whether Li Taide is sincere or fake? Zhao Xu doesn’t care!
Whether it's sincere or fake.
Once he's on the boat, there's nothing left for him to do!
Therefore, Zhao Xu said softly: "If Jiaozhi can change his mind and wake up like you said, I will not hesitate to reward you."
Li Taide immediately kowtowed and expressed his support: "If Jiaozhi can be favored by His Majesty, everyone in Jiaozhi will be grateful for it. From now on, they will be loyal to Your Majesty and dare not have any second thoughts."
For Cochin now, the situation is indeed very dangerous.
The war was defeated, the losses were heavy, the hearts of the people at home were shaken, morale was low, and they were burdened with the heavy task of tribute.
This little emperor, the public propaganda of the Northern Dynasty is that this December, after the Dragon Rising Festival, he will be twelve years old.
But at the same time, he also knew that this was reality.
Of course the paper has value.
"Let's do it." Zhao Xu smiled, looked at Li Taide, and subconsciously touched it with his little hand: "Since I came, I will give you rewards for the tributes paid by the vassal state."
If he can also obtain this condition...
Zhao Xu listened and smiled slightly. He was not surprised at all by Li Taide's performance.
These divine arm bows were made with great effort.
"There are tens of thousands of swords, spears, swords and halberds, and more than half a million arrows."
Zhao Xu said, looked at Yan Yuan in the palace, and asked: "Yan Aiqing, I remember that Brother Qing once compiled relevant figures. How many armors and crossbows are there in the Yongzhou arsenal now?"
So, how could Tai De Li be so stupid that he trapped himself in a cocoon?
At this time, Zhao Xu's age comes into play.
Jiaozhi really hurts from being beaten, and I’m scared of being beaten!
After Li Taide was encouraged, it was natural that he would hit the snake and follow it with the stick.
Can these old bows be used for one year in the environment of Jiaozhi?
After listening to this, Li Taide felt somewhat lonely.
But what I got in my hand was just some paper.
Zhao Xu felt slightly proud when he saw Li Taide's expression.
Then after he returns to China, he will be able to directly replace that loser Li Qiande!
At the same time, he will also borrow this huge sum of money to make Cochin prosperous!
The Song Dynasty, which could not defeat the Northern Dynasties, destroyed the city of Champa and marched into Zhenla, easily!
You can still make Cochin a vast empire covering thousands of miles!
By the time……
"However, these armors and weapons are all anointed by the people of Songzhou County."
Maybe we can go back to Northern Dynasty to settle this year’s debt!
Li Taide became excited after hearing this and couldn't help but ask: "I dare you to ask your Majesty, how to issue this rice jiaozi?"
This is a conspiracy!
Little did he know that he was embarking on a road of no return called comprador.
As the output of enemy-defeating bows in the specialized arms manufacturing bureau continues to increase, the old God's Arm bows will gradually be replaced.
He hurriedly bowed and said, "How dare I work for Your Majesty?"
This is good!
"If you, after returning home, can lead Jiaozhi up and down, respect my teachings, and abide by their duties, then Jiaozhi will be in peace." Zhao Xu said and looked at Li Taide.
The same young men came to the throne at the same age, the same young men came to power, and after the same men came to the throne, they actively used troops.
With these strong armors, powerful crossbows, and sharp blades from the Northern Dynasty.
That would be a disaster.
A name flashed in Li Taide's mind - Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty.
Furthermore, the Song Dynasty now has better bows to defeat enemies, and there will be firearms troops in the future.
"It's one to one..."
"The most I can give is half the price."
For a small country like Cochin, it is indeed a bit too much oppression.
In his mind, the image of this person inexplicably overlapped with the photo of a bearded Cochin man he had seen on the modern Internet.
Now it depends on whether the other party can understand it.
If you can get this batch of ordnance, you can build an elite army.
It’s still the ruble bookkeeping routine of Lao Maozi’s interactive meeting.
Yan Yuan immediately went out to report respectfully: "Your Majesty, my brother has been ordered to count the armor, crossbows, and swords stored in the Yongzhou arsenal..."
Jiaozhi was his first victim.
"I have ordered a department in Guangxi to set up the 'Annan Rice Jiaozi Service' and issue rice Jiaozi based on Jiaozhi rice."
Studying abroad in modern times let him know that the most profitable industry in the world is arms!
He has also always wanted to sell the Song Dynasty's ordnance to various parties in order to make huge profits.
With the help of such a sharp weapon, the Cochin army can definitely push back.
The divine arm bow is still an old and discarded second-hand product.
"Sir, please get up and speak." The little emperor's voice came to my ears.
If either party tears it up, it may lead to a crusade by the Song army.
When Cochin people get it, they will of course choose to spend it.
As he spoke, he looked longingly at the little emperor sitting in the palace.
Even after repairs, its useful life is limited.
This is what you asked for.
Thus turning it into a country that specializes in rice production.
When Li Taide listened, his heart was filled with ecstasy!
You know, everyone in Cochin had already admitted defeat.
Zhao Xu continued: "However, if money and silk are used to deliver the rice, I am afraid that transportation will be difficult."
How could he not understand that it is easier to invite God than to send Him away?
If the Song army really crosses the Furiang River, the Jiaozhi Kingdom will really fall.
At the same time, its circulation scope is mainly in Kaifeng Prefecture.
Li Taide hurriedly bowed and said, "I respectfully listen to your Majesty's teachings."
Champa and Zhenla may be intimidated by the Song Dynasty and actually come to the negotiation table.
For more than ten years, Li Qiande has not been able to give birth to a daughter.
This is not possible in Guangxi, there is no supervision!
We can only use stupid methods, using ruble bookkeeping method, and point-to-point issuance of rice transfers for designated purposes.
Because he has regarded Cochin as his private property.
It's no wonder that the Song Dynasty minister named Lu Jiawen thought that his young master was about to turn twelve, which was a great thing.
Now, since he can find a customer in Jiaozhi, of course Zhao Xu also wants to sell it at a high price.
"Sure enough, they are of the same origin!"
"Everyone along the border often writes to me asking for bows, crossbows and armor..."
Happy and dancing.
But, what if the Northern Dynasty did not interfere with his behavior?
Li Taide bowed tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I know that my brother has no heirs...but with the blessing of the Buddha, he will definitely be able to give birth to an heir in the future."
"After I return to China, I will definitely remember His Majesty's teachings and teach me to respect China and abide by my duties."
Then add the purchase quantity of one million stones of rice.
At least the Northern Dynasty was willing to relax restrictions and allow him to purchase armor from the Northern Dynasty.
Li Taide swallowed, and his heart started to beat loudly.
"At that time, Chinese clothes and hats will disappear from the old land of Annan; the saint's articles will no longer appear in the old county of Nanhai."
And make it bound to this track!
This is what Zhao Xu wants to do.
"Whatever the price of rice is, give him as much value as possible."
No wonder the Song people in the Northern Dynasties were so happy.
"However, if you are willing, I am still willing to price the tribute rice."
Only then did he enter the imperial court in Bianjing.
"I have the courage to ask His Majesty the Emperor for your favor..."
In case someone steals it, a large number of Jiaozi will be printed.
Moreover, the policy towards Dali is the same.
"I remember that when the first general Yulong was reorganizing his army, I issued an edict, ordering all the armor and bows and crossbows brought by all the generals to stay in Guangxi."
"I only wish that Your Majesty would show favor to Jiaozhi, and use Jiaozhi's Chinese armor, bows and crossbows..."
It's really a shame to die!
What's even more frightening is that the Song army is equipped with such powerful crossbows on a large scale.
So, Youyou sighed: "However, now that the first general of Yulong has returned to Beijing, I can't persuade the government and the opposition to send troops across the river."
Originally, after losing the war, he had the opportunity to put his good-for-nothing brother under house arrest or eliminate him.
Sweat broke out on Li Taide's forehead.
"Xining's southern expedition was a wild rebellion by Jiaozhi. Li Ni entered the bandit and massacred the soldiers and civilians of the Song Dynasty. Huang Kao had no choice but to use troops. After punishment, he also withdrew his troops and returned to the country."
Who was the last young emperor with such magnanimity and ability?
Got married at the age of sixteen, changed to Yuanyangjia, and started the inspection and examination system.
For the people of the Northern Dynasties, it is indeed a very great thing for the little emperor to turn twelve this year!
Zhao Xu sat on the throne, the smile on his face could no longer be concealed.
Two million gu of rice is produced every year. Even according to the price of rice in Guangxi, this is a huge transaction of more than 2 million gu.
Xining has the divine arm bow, and Yuanyou has the enemy-defeating bow.
"Then, if you hold Jiaozi in Jiaozhi, you can have a business relationship with Guangxi to purchase relevant ordnance."
With this large army as the vanguard, we can definitely defeat the cities of Champa and Zhenla.
The fault is that Zhao Xu studied abroad in modern times, and I am afraid that he will be fooled by him now.
He even destroyed the city of Champa and invaded Chenla.
"I haven't even been able to satisfy requests for bows, crossbows and armor from all along the border, so I can't just give out armor at will."
As for the Jiaozhi people who took the divine arm bow, would they turn against the Song Dynasty?
First of all, these old bows have been worn for more than several years.
As for why Song and Liao Jiaozi could be circulated?
This is because its issuance is right under Zhao Xu's nose and can be supervised at any time.
In the face of these two kinds of crossbows, all the armored defenses of the Jiaozhi army were as good as paper.
He had heard about the Jiaozi trade between Liao and Song people.
You can buy ordnance, armor, silk, etc. from the Song Dynasty.
But Li Taide felt that this little emperor was young and no matter how smart he was, he would always have opportunities to take advantage of him.
He continued to shed tears and said miserably: "If this happens, my country will probably fall into Champa and Chenla will perish."
"There are 532 divine arm bows and 455 enemy-defeating bows..."
As soon as they took advantage of the situation, Song Dynasty products entered Jiaozhi.
Li Taide listened and was drafting in his mind, thinking about how to say (white) and (vote).
"Afterwards, we will look at the situation and make adjustments gradually. If Jiaozhi fruit can be as good as what you said..."
Zhao Xu smiled and nodded, and suddenly said: "I heard that King Qiande of Jiaozhi only has heirs so far?"
"It's really exactly the same!"
As expected, Li Taide stood up again almost immediately, knelt down and worshiped: "Your Majesty has shown you such kindness, and I will die a hundred times to repay Your Majesty!"
Li Taide is uncooperative, and there is Li Qiande.
However, Zhao Xu has always been the only one who has had sex with others for free. How could Zhao Xu be willing to let others have sex with him for free?
Moreover, the total amount is controllable - as much rice as Cochin people deliver will be issued, and as much as Cochin people spend will be deducted.
But will Cochin comply?
Won't!
The dignitaries and generals in the country also supported it.
Therefore, an order has been issued to recover these old bows, transport them back to Bianjing, and then let the weapons supervisor repair them.
Then, he raised his head, his eyes were red, squeezed out a drop of tears, and said, "However, Your Majesty knows that even if Jiaozhi sticks to its duties from now on, it may not be safe! Because at this moment, at this moment, The two countries of Zhancheng and Zhenla took advantage of the new defeat of the vassal state, so they sent troops south to plunder and kill the soldiers and civilians of the vassal state."
Jiaozhi people are thick-skinned, have a low bottom line, and are confident, so they often embarrass the Song Dynasty.
With that said, he once again asked Li Taide about the working principle of rice Jiaozi.
Where is this child?
He is clearly an adult monarch with online logical thinking and abilities!
But in my heart, I was already smiling.
"After returning to the country, I will discuss it carefully with my brother and everyone in the country."
Especially for Jiaozhi, once the peace treaty was torn up, it would be a slap in the face of the Song Dynasty.
Moreover, he also planned to use this nature of the Jiaozhi people to let them contribute to the greatness of the Song Dynasty again.
Unfortunately, I never waited for the right time.
But that would be of no benefit to Cochin!
Because once the mediation is successful, the peace treaty will be guaranteed by the Song Dynasty.
It is a national policy to collect compensation from the South.
Li Taide knew clearly that if the Song Dynasty really came forward to mediate the war.
Not only did Li Qiande support it, but Li Taide also supported it.
Now, in front of him, Li Taide could only talk to Nuonuo.
"It's just that I'm afraid of occupying the city, Zhenla, and disobeying His Majesty's edict..."
"I am afraid that all the generals in the three government offices will be dissatisfied."
Xining Southern Expedition and this year’s Yuanyou Southern Expedition.
Two million stones of rice per year are directly transformed into four million or even five million strings of jiaozi!
Are you still afraid that you won’t be able to defeat Champa and Zhenla?
Therefore, Li Taide bowed his head and worshiped again: "Your Majesty's grace, I will bear it in my heart."
It is no exaggeration to say that the Eastern Han Dynasty reached its peak under the rule of this young emperor who came to the throne!
Wait until in the future, when ink, paper, and engraving technology are updated enough to be used.
I didn’t force it!
Zhao Xu was really worried that the Jiaozhi people were crushed by such heavy oppression.
Later, due to the attack on Zhenla and Champa, Jiaozhi fell into danger and had no choice but to cooperate with Li Qiande.
Therefore, Zhao Xu can roughly grasp the circulation situation of Jiaozi through Li Xian's control of Jiaoziwu, Huang Liang's Feiqianpu and Shi Deyi's Detective Department.
Send troops across the river?
Zhao Xu was condescending and looked at his behavior.
He was deliberately passing the ladder to Li Taide.
Zhao Xu looked at him as if he were a fool.
And Zhao Xu's previous performance convinced him of this - if he said a few nice words and shed a few tears, people would really change their attitude!
They even expressed their willingness to mediate.
Emperor Shun ascended the throne at the age of ten. At the age of eleven, he used a series of means to expel the eunuch group who supported him and took sole power! At the age of twelve, he ordered Ban Yong to regain the Western Regions. At the age of thirteen, he defeated Xianbei. At the age of fourteen, He has already shocked the world, completely consolidated his power and status, and won the support of both the government and the public.
Therefore, it can be sold openly.
The kind that become invalid after use.
"If the king of Jiaozhi unfortunately dies, whoever can take over the Jiaozhi ancestral temple will be your minister!"
"There should be no talk of reward."
It's not that Zhao Xu didn't want to take advantage of this opportunity to print more money to plunder Jiaozhi's wealth.
Whenever a counterfeit Jiaozi appears on the market, he will most likely be able to spot it immediately.
This shows that the Song Dynasty has completely taken the initiative.
Could it be possible to give birth in your thirties?
joke!
"It's just that if the Buddha is not protected and things come to pass, for the sake of the ancestors and the ancestors of the ancestral temple..."
He didn't know until he entered Beijing.
Naturally, we will make a big fuss about this aspect.
Zhao Xu immediately put his palms together and praised: "You are so loyal and kind!"
"Didn't Jiaozhi pay millions of shi for rice every year, and then buy rice for 1 million shi from Song Dynasty?"
How can the small country of Jiaozhi in the Northern Dynasties be the same as the Liao Kingdom?
Is it worthy?
For Jiaozhi, if you don't pay attention, this is a situation where the country will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed.
"Not only that, the two countries of Champa City and Zhenla also colluded with the rebels in the subject country, causing harm to all parties..."
If this were the case, the game would not be fun.
And now this young master of the Northern Dynasty is strikingly similar to Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty in many aspects.
"I will show my kindness, and I will pay you tribute and buy it according to the rules."
He just had to give up.
"There are more than 7,000 pieces of leather armor, more than 300 pieces of mail armor, and more than 400 pieces of other armor."
To be honest, Li Taide couldn't think clearly.
Through the Jiaozi transformation of Sui coins, the Liao Kingdom turned the Sui coins originally worth only 1.5 million guan into 3 million guan!
"This time the king's army marched south because Yang Ni Jingtong looted and killed the officials and people of the Song Dynasty, and some rebel bandits wrote poems and slandered Huang Kao. I had no choice but to send troops south to give some punishment."
It is tantamount to say that this rice Jiaozi will become a weapon for the Song Dynasty to dump Jiaozhi products!
Think about it, the people of Cochin make millions every year through the rice trade.
The Song Dynasty is now starting to replace its weapons with new weapons.
"It's better than this..."
"Jiaozhi Ma Ling, Bu Zheng, and Dili (approximately the two provinces of Guangping and Guangzhi in today's Vietnam, which belong to the land that Jiaochin seized from Champa) were all invaded by the invaders..."
It seems that it is such a great thing that his little emperor will turn twelve years old this year.
Tears flowed from his eyes.
Li Taide felt that if he could deceive the young emperor, he would allow Jiaozhi to obtain such a powerful crossbow and other armor from the Northern Dynasties.
The main thing is one word: stability.
Apart from anything else, let’s just look at the conversation and feelings he had during the short period of more than a quarter of an hour before he entered the palace.
"If it were given to Jiaozhi so easily, it would be difficult for me to explain it to the world."
The country of Jiaozhi has always been a Zhongshan wolf.
It’s amazing, that is, it has small-scale circulation in Damingfu, Luoyang and other places.
It doubled or tripled out of thin air!
The Liao people were very happy because of this!
Zhao Xu asked: "Do you want the Song Dynasty to mediate the war?"
This achievement alone is enough to win him more support in Cochin.
At this moment, his acting skills exploded.
Anyway, Zhao Xu felt anxious.
Li Taide was ecstatic when he heard these figures.
This kind of communication is actually an official approval document.
Li Taide swallowed his saliva and bowed again: "How dare I have such hope?"
I could only lower my head: "Your Majesty taught you a lesson."
He wanted to refute, but he didn't have the guts, let alone the courage.
In this way, Jiaozi's credibility can be established.
However, first of all, today's Jiaozi anti-counterfeiting technology is not yet mature and needs iteration to meet anti-counterfeiting needs and the potential for large-scale circulation.
However, judging from Zhao Xu's understanding of the Jiaozhi people, they are very good at climbing the ladder - whether now, in the future, or even in modern times.
Then he listened to Zhao Xu say: "I suddenly thought of a way to get the best of both worlds."
Li Taide listened and opened his mouth wide.
But because they were worried about the interference of the Song army - the subordinates offended the superiors, and the ministers used their ministers to force the emperor, which was a Confucian taboo.
"Even so, Master Wang only stopped there and did not cross the Furiang River!"
This can be used to fully expand it.
Therefore, as long as it wins respite, Jiaozhi will definitely conquer Champa and Chenla in the south, and gain wealth, population, and land from these two countries to make up for the losses in the north.
The powerful bows and crossbows of the Song Dynasty really opened the eyes of the Jiaozhi people and left an indelible psychological shadow on them.
Fortunately, Zhao Xu had studied abroad in modern times and had a good understanding of the Jiaozhi people's ways.
Had it not been for his untimely death, the national destiny of the Eastern Han Dynasty would probably have lasted for at least a hundred years.
Every time Jiaozhi came to envoy, he liked to argue with Song Dynasty.
It did not pose any threat to the Song Dynasty army.
Although Li Taide already knew that this little emperor was no ordinary little emperor.
"It's just that the rice cannot be paid at the same price as He bought it."
Li Taide bowed his head: "I am terrified..."
Secondly, Jiaozhi is humid and hot.
Secondly, Guangxi and Bianjing are far apart, making it difficult to supervise.
After thinking about it carefully, he felt that this condition was actually very good.
Especially the old bows of the Western Army that had been used for several years and were already worn out were really unfit for use.
Thinking of this, Li Taide slowly stood up.
Even if the Buddha appears, Li Qiande will have no hope of heirs.
He already knew that this little emperor seemed to care about saintly articles, clothes, etiquette and music.
In the future, it will completely crush Cochin's fragile handicraft industry.
Li Taide raised his head.
This is one of the reasons why Li Taide was willing to take the risk and come to Bianjing.
It should be noted that the people of Cochin in the past were not like this.
Buddha bless?
An annual rice compensation of one million shi.
Li Taide remembered his expression when he heard a Northern Dynasty official named Lu Jiawen tell him about this when he was in Guangxi Province.
He immediately bowed again: "I sincerely request your majesty to extend your kindness to Jiaozhi and give me armor and weapons. If so, I and Jiaozhi will be deeply grateful for your majesty's kindness and will never forget it."
Immediately, he shook his head slightly and interrupted Li Taide's spell casting: "I would like to ask you to do so."
His original intention was to wait for the Liao army to invade Goryeo, and then sell these old bows half-sold and half-give away to support the Goryeo people's anti-invasion cause.
"It's just that the Jiaozhi rice tribute is a punishment for committing a crime against me."
Because this is the skill inherited from the Jiaozhi people.
Whoring for free!
Zhao Xu listened, followed his words, and muttered: "So, what you said is true."
"There are indeed many armors and bows and crossbows in the Song Dynasty."
Then, he heard the little emperor's voice: "You know, I, like my emperor, have no intention of using troops in Jiaozhi."
Champa and Chenla in the south are pressing harder and harder.
But now, when he went on a mission to the Northern Dynasty, he sold the rice that was supposed to be given to the Northern Dynasty free of charge at a high price.
Zhao Xu felt very distressed that it was abandoned like this.
This also encourages Cochin people to grow more rice.
What is Zhongshan Wolf?
If you succeed, you will go wild!
What about when you are unsuccessful? Begging for mercy, being humble, groveling, and just trying to survive.
"I'm afraid I can only use my despicable and stupid talents... to ask Your Majesty for your decree. Please make your decision!"
