Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Sang Bo said in suffocated Chinese: "See Qian Shaoqing."

"You can still speak the official dialect of Song Dynasty?"

"I used to trade frequently with the Song people, and I learned a little bit." Sang Bo smiled honestly.

Also as a businessman, Qian Yuqing would not be deceived by Sangbo's simple and honest smile.

Qian Yuqing said, "I have something to ask you."

"Please show me, Shaoqing."

"Now you use our Dasong copper coins for trading, but the number of copper coins is limited after all. Where there are no copper coins, what do you use for trading?"

In the 12th century, the copper coins of the Song Dynasty were really the international currency, which was liked by all countries, including Champa.

"We trade things for things," Sangbo said.

"Exchanging things for things is too troublesome for transactions." Qian Yuqing said, "It's impossible to measure whether the two parties are making money or losing money."

"That's something that can't be helped, we don't have the ability to mint currency."

Qian Yuqing smiled and said: "Look at my proposal, what do you think? I have a very good piece of paper here, marked with 100 Wen, and you can use it to buy goods from me."

Sang Bo was stunned for a moment: "Buying goods?"

"Correct."

"Where is this magical paper?"

"I have it here."

Chapter 580 Dasong Bank Champa Branch? (first update)

Sang Bo was even more curious: "Can I show the villain?"

Qian Yuqing asked someone to fetch a banknote with a denomination of 100 Wen and put it on the table.

Sang Bo was rather curious, and said, "Can I touch it, little man?"

Seeing Sangbo's interested expression, Qian Yuqing smiled and said, "Anything you want."

Sangbo picked up the note, felt its material carefully, and observed its style, including the Chinese characters on it.

Little did he know that this piece of ordinary paper had started to set off a storm in the Eastern world, ushering in a new era of unprecedented wealth redistribution.

After looking at it for a long time, Sangbo didn't seem to understand the magic of this piece of paper, and asked curiously: "Is it really possible to use this thing to buy goods from you?"

"Of course, as long as you give this kind of paper, I will accept it. If you accept it, you will be given the corresponding goods at the price."

"But the villain doesn't have this kind of paper in his hands."

"It's okay, didn't you purchase a batch of fruit wine through you before?" Qian Yuqing put on a look of doing business separately, "I use this kind of paper to pay you, and you have it in your hand. You can use this kind of paper to buy my Da Song’s goods again.”

Sangbo thought for a while, and felt that something was wrong.

He added: "But the villain doesn't just do business with Da Song, other people don't want to accept this kind of paper, what should we do?"

Qian Yuqing said: "Don't bother you to worry about it. If they don't have this kind of paper, they won't be able to buy items from my Great Song Dynasty. I believe many people here still hope to buy products from the Central Plains."

"What does Shangguan mean, if you buy goods from the Celestial Dynasty, you must use this kind of paper in the future?"

"Good idea!" Qian Yuqing praised, "This is your Sangbo's idea, and I think it's feasible!"

Sangbo felt that something was getting worse and worse, but he didn't know what was going on for a while.

"If the villain wants to take a boat to Hangzhou to buy goods, can he use it?"

"Okay, the Celestial Dynasty uses it now."

"What about the copper coins?" Sang Bo continued to ask, "Aren't the copper coins used?"

"No need." Qian Yuqing replied directly.

But in fact, Qian Yuqing couldn't confirm the true attitude of these merchants in Champa Kingdom towards handing over banknotes. He was just testing each other step by step.

Looking at Sangbo's dark, honest, curious, and innocent face, Qian Yuqing was keenly aware of the other party's worry and joy.

It is not so easy to accept a new thing, let alone something related to one's own personal interests.

However, paying banknotes has many advantages over copper coins, and people in business understand it.

But there are also weaknesses, and people in business know it too.

"What if it is damaged?" Sangbo said, "As you know, our place is very humid, and many items are perishable."

"If it is damaged, you can go to Dasong Bank to exchange for a new one."

"Da Song Bank?" Sang Bo was startled.

"Oh, it might be here in the future, where you sit now."

"What is that?"

"A yamen where you can save money and exchange new currency. You can also deposit your money in Dasong Bank, which can help you keep it for free."

"Is there such a good thing?" Sang Bo obviously didn't believe it.

Anyone else willing to keep money for others for free?

Li Kun said: "Our Shaoqing naturally means what he says, so how can we talk nonsense with you?"

"The bank is willing to keep the money for me, what do I need a villain for?" Sang Bo obviously still didn't believe it, there is no free lunch in the world.

Qian Yuqing saw that Sangbo had basically taken the bait for two-thirds, and there was only one reason that could convince his brain circuit, so he said: "The emperor's benevolence and righteousness spread far and wide, and he has benefited all people. Considering the many trades between you and the Central Plains It is inconvenient to set up the Dasong Bank, which uses banknotes as currency to help you keep your money for free, so that trade can be smoother and all people will benefit from it."

Sangbo fell into the final thought.

Qian Yuqing said: "During this period of time, we have traded between the two sides. I believe you have also felt a lot of inconvenience, especially when it comes to settlement, some items are settled with copper coins, which are heavy. There are also a large number of items that cannot be measured and can only be settled in physical form. Exchanging items, but in exchange for items, how do you know the detailed value of the items on both sides? What if someone exchanges fake items with you?"

"But this kind of paper can also be fake?"

"I'll give you one, and you go back and make one exactly like this one for me to try?"

Sangbo gently stroked the delicate lines and the color of the paint on the banknotes.

He has traded in ceramics and cloth, and is sensitive to the details of handmade works.

Li Kun said on the side: "Sang Bo, it doesn't matter if you don't want to, we don't force others, but some people are willing to use it, you have to think about it, now our Shaoqing is giving you a chance, you want to use it?" Cherish it well, not ordinary people can have such an opportunity, understand?"

Sang Bo said quickly: "Yes, of course I am willing, this is the honor of the villain."

Qian Yuqing and Li Kun looked at each other, it was the kind of faint smile that achieved a certain purpose.

Sang Bo said again: "Shaoqing, the villain is here today, and I have something very important to tell you."

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"Zhaoen is the favorite of King Zhancheng, and he has great power in the capital." Sangbo said, taking out a letter from his sleeve, "This is a letter from Zhaoen to you, he hopes to cooperate with you , to build a better future together.”

Qian Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and Li Kun was also a little surprised.

Li Kun took the letter, read it first, and then handed it to Qian Yuqing: "Shaoqing, this seems to be an honest letter?"

Qian Yuqing read it carefully, and was a little surprised, this is really a fucking letter of honesty!

The writing in the letter can be said to be very kneeling.

It seems that the hearts of the people in the capital are not very stable now!

Qian Yuqing asked: "Why should I cooperate with this Zhaoen? Now that the army of the Celestial Dynasty has besieged the capital for more than a month, there is no need for his help."

Help is definitely needed. Qian Yuqing is different from Wu Lin. Qian Yuqing is not an iron-blooded faction, he is a businessman.

The businessman's logic is win-win cooperation.

But Qian Yuqing obviously wanted to bargain.

Sang Bo said: "If Shangguan wants to manage the Champa Kingdom, he still needs the support of the local dignitaries. Zhao En is a person who understands current affairs. With his help, Shangguan can save a lot of time."

"Then can he open the gate of the royal capital for me?" Qian Yuqing said, "And guarantee the safety of the detained Dasong merchants?"

"If the Shangguan promises to protect his wealth and glory, it may not be impossible."

"Go back first, let me think about it."

Sang Bo said: "The villain will leave."

Li Kun hurriedly said: "This plan is feasible."

"Why?"

"As a courtier, Zhao En wrote to us without King Champa's knowledge, obviously ready to break with King Champa." Li Kun's mind was also turning quickly, "Our purpose is to weaken the king of Champa. The influence of the city king on this place, if Bao Zhaoen survives and keeps his power, he will naturally be able to suppress the royal family."

Qian Yuqing couldn't help but nodded.

At this time, the person sent to Jiaozhi for help returned to the capital and met King Champa.

Chapter 581 The Bridgehead of the New Era (Second Change)

Zhao En was drinking in the mansion, but the person sent out to ask for help came to him first.

"What did you say! King Jiaozhi was defeated by the Song army?" Zhao En was taken aback.

"Yes."

"you sure?"

"The villain is sure. The villain saw with his own eyes that there were a large number of Song troops stationed on the bank of the Red River, and the city was opened."

Zhao En pondered.

Zhaoen is a typical speculator.

When the Song army came to attack the king's capital of Zhancheng, he relied on being at home and having a large number of soldiers, so he strongly advocated fighting against the Song army.

why?

Could it be Zhao En's patriotism?

Naturally not.

He wanted to use this to enhance his political prestige. As long as he defeated the Song army, he could replace Yin Jiangtao as prime minister.

In his opinion, the probability of defeating the Song Army is very high.

Later, when he lost the fight, Khalivarman wanted to kill him. In order to survive, he came up with another idea to seek help from Cochin.

However, as a speculator, and just experienced a failed speculation with a wrong bet, Zhao En still reflected on it.

He immediately understood the truth in the world: eggs cannot be put in one basket, chasing a girl cannot be hanged on a tree, you have to prepare with multiple hands!

So he sent someone to contact the pro-Song businessman privately, found Sangbo, and left himself a way out.

Zhao En took a deep breath, it seemed that the way out was right.

Zhao En said: "This is a big matter, please don't tell His Majesty, I will tell you in person."

"Would this not be good?"

"Now is a special period. There are some things you don't understand. If you tell His Majesty, Your Majesty may question the authenticity of this matter. You are unlucky."

"What should the little man do?"

Zhao En said: "You stay with me for a while, don't go anywhere."

Zhao En turned around and sent someone to find Sangbo.

"What is the opinion of the commander-in-chief of the Song army?"

"It's still under consideration," Sang Bo said.

"How can the commander-in-chief of the Song army agree as soon as possible?"

Sang Bo said: "The angel and the villain introduced a kind of banknote, they hope to use it in our place, and trade with the Celestial Dynasty through banknotes, but I don't know your opinion..."

"No problem, I have no problem at all!"

Not to mention assisting Da Song to promote the payment of banknotes, even if he asked Zhao En to wash his mouth clean and kneel and lick Qian Yuqing, he would be willing.

Sangbo quietly walked to Song Ying again, conveying Zhao En's sincere and urgent wish.

Jingkang seven years, April 23rd.

Zhaoen finally received Qian Yuqing's promise.

In the early morning of April 24, the east gate of the capital was suddenly opened.

Many things in the world are such a coincidence. The drama that was staged in Thang Long City just now was staged again in Champa King's Capital in a blink of an eye.
