Come to Song Dynasty with the system

Su Shi was very strong. With a slight exertion on his arms, Zhang Jian found that he could not move. In the end, he could only follow Su Shi into the inner courtyard. When there was no one around, Zhang Jian said with a wry smile, "Dragon King, why bother?" So?"

This time Zhang Jian came to do business with Su Shi, which was full of benefits. Many people in the Liao Dynasty's senior officials were watching this place.

It was only because Su Shi had such a fierce reputation that no one wanted to take risks when dealing with him for the first time, so Zhang Jian was sent here again.

These powerful men did not come, but they sent their own people in the team, just like the two hundred Liao Army cavalry, among whom there were many powerful informants.The purpose is to let them record everything that happens here.

Su Shi showed such closeness to Zhang Jian. Once this scene is reported truthfully, some people may think too much about it.Once the business cooperation with Su Shi is successful, there will be a legitimate reason to kick Zhang Jian away.

Speaking of which, Su Shi was really afraid of Zhang Jian when he did this.

Su Shi was not afraid of people's desires, nor was he afraid of their greed. What he was afraid of was people like Zhang Jian, who devoted themselves to being upright officials and capable ministers of the Liao Dynasty.

Such people are the hardest to corrupt and the hardest to deal with.He always puts the interests of the country as the most important thing, and Zhang Jian has clear thinking and strong observation skills. After dealing with him for a long time, his every move will inevitably make the other party take precautions.

In this way, Su Shi behaved very warmly in front of outsiders. I believe that this would definitely arouse the suspicion of the gentlemen in the Liao court.Next time, if someone else comes over to discuss cooperation with him, you will be able to feel more relaxed.

On

Before taking down the entire Goryeo, Su Shi was not going to be an enemy of Liao.

If nothing else, Su Shi needs time to develop and do things.And once the Liao Kingdom really targeted him, he would have no time to do anything else.

"Hey, Messenger Zhang and I hit it off right away. Don't think blindly." Su Shi chuckled, he would not admit his motives.

Seeing Su Shi's rogue look, Zhang Jian first smiled bitterly, and then said: "King Long Tian, ​​don't worry. If you just want a piece of land to gain a foothold, we, the Liao Kingdom, will definitely support you."

This sentence also has a subtext, which is to remind Su Shi that if your appetite is too big, the Liao Kingdom will never tolerate you.

"Haha, it's natural. How I left Zhao Song, I think Ambassador Zhang knows best. Now I just want a place to settle down, nothing else." Su Shi said with a smile.

"Ahem, that's good, that's good." Zhang Jian didn't want to talk about this topic.Lu Siqiao was sent back to the Song Dynasty by the Liao Kingdom, which became the trigger for Su Shi's rebellion.Speaking of which, they were wrong first.

The two of them are scheming against each other secretly, but on the surface they are in harmony with each other. This is a dialogue between countries. They will never show each other their true trump cards. Just because they have smiles on their faces, it does not mean that they are. So happy.

After chatting for a while, Su Shi personally accompanied Zhang Jian to the Huaxia Store. Zhang Jian was dumbfounded by the dazzling array of colorful goods inside.

Before he came, he thought that Su Shi would have good things here, but he didn't expect that there would be so many.

He once sent someone to Bian

The Huaxia Store in Liangcheng also knew that there were many good things there. Now it seems that Su Shi should have moved all those items here before leaving.

"Okay, they are all good things, but what's the meaning of the yuan marked on them?" Zhang Jian saw it enthusiastically, but still wanted to buy more goods at the lowest price, so he pointed at the prices of the items and asked With.

"Oh, yuan is a currency personally appointed by the king. If converted into silver taels, one yuan is equal to approximately ten taels." Su Shijia said at five times the price.

"What?" Zhang Jian was stunned when he heard this unit conversion.He had just seen that the price of one stone of coarse grains was two yuan. Doesn't that mean it was 20 taels of silver?

When the grain harvest in the Liao Kingdom was good, the price of one stone was only about one or two to one and a half silver.Su Shi sells it here for 20 taels of silver per stone. Are you really bullying him for not knowing the market price?

Looking at Zhang Jian's suspicious look, Su Shi spread his hands and said: "There is no way. The price was very high when I got the goods. You have to let me make some money no matter what. Of course, if the goods that Messenger Zhang wants If there are more, you can get a discount.”

"What's the discount?" Zhang Jian took the opportunity to ask.

"How about [-]% off?" Su Shi asked with a smile.

"No, [-]% off." Zhang Jian shook his head.

"Fifty percent off won't work. I'll lose money if I do this. The maximum is [-] percent off."

"That's [-]% off."

A Dragon King and a third envoy of the Liao Kingdom negotiated the price here like a peddler. After a while, the price was set at [-]% off, and Su Shi showed a pained look.Zhang Jian was extremely satisfied.

He knew very well that even if it was a [-]% discount, Su Shi would definitely make a profit.But it doesn't matter, what he wants to buy is those rare items that can't be seen outside, such as grain, he won't even ask for a liter.In this way, he could get the goods exclusively and bring them back to the Liao Kingdom and sell them at twice the price or even more. In this way, he still made a profit.

Su Shi felt distressed on the surface, but he was happy in his heart. Originally, these things were all priced up.Besides, his cost is just a point of belief, and there is no such thing as a big capital.What Su Shi wanted was to take these things out and exchange them for silver, the silver of the Liao Kingdom.

His ultimate goal is to empty the wallets of the powerful people in the Liao Kingdom, and eventually force them to increase taxes on the people of the Liao Kingdom. In this way, the people will have a harder time, and his goal will be achieved.One day, when his army marches towards the Liao Kingdom, the resistance will naturally be much smaller.

The two of them had their own plans, and Zhang Jian began to scan the goods.According to what was discussed before, only silver will be recognized as the trading currency, boxes of silver were carried into the Huaxia Store, and items that could not be seen outside were packaged and carried out.

In just three days, Zhang Jian left with a full load.It is true that as the Third Secretary Envoy, there are too many official duties.

After the two parties agreed to trade again after a while, Zhang Jian left with satisfaction.Su Shi sent each other off with a smile. At this moment, he seemed to have seen the scene where the monarchs and ministers of the Liao Kingdom couldn't put down these goods.

There are so many good things that they can empty the pockets of some powerful people.If he wanted to continue to get good things, Su Shi wanted to see how Liao would increase taxes.

......

Zhao Song

, Nandi, Jiangning Mansion.

After the tax increase policy was issued to the government, it attracted a lot of resistance from the local gentry.

But this was the intention of the officials and courtiers, and the local gentry could not shake it at all. After a quarrel at the Jiangning Yamen, the gentry went back to their homes.These tax increases were then distributed to ordinary people and tenant farmers.

This is a bit like the price of oil in later generations. When it goes up, the gentry will rise with it, or even rise even more. In the end, all the pressure will fall on the people, and they will suffer unspeakably.

Zhao Zhen, who was far away in Bianliang City, did not know all this. He just wanted to increase taxes from the wealthy gentry and local powerful people to alleviate the economic pressure on the court. However, he did not expect that the policy would change after it was implemented.

It is said that there are policies above and countermeasures below.

In many cases, the above policies are good, but they are easy to be misinterpreted when they arrive at the place.After the people shared the heavy tax, some people who were already living in a difficult life became even worse.

At this time, the White Lotus Sect among the people became active, and more and more people joined the White Lotus Sect. Zhao Songnan's attitude was vaguely unstable.

......

Huangcao Town.

In the morning, a large number of dragoons set off towards the northeast.

Two months after Huangcaoling and Houzhiling became Su Shi's base, the Su family army began to show their fangs after stabilization, aiming directly at Moyun Ridge, and began their second military attack after arriving in Goryeo.

Moyunling is located in the corner of Goryeo, and its territory borders the Liao Kingdom.And because there are mountains here and the roads are difficult to navigate, it has become a breeding ground for mountain bandits.

Before Su Shi came here, the Goryeo gentry here had had enough of the mountains.

In order to avoid the harassment of bandits, they also paid for Goryeo officers and soldiers to suppress the bandits, but obviously the effect was not very good.Often when the officers and soldiers arrive, the bandits will hide; when the officers and soldiers leave, the bandits will reappear.

After a few times, the officers and soldiers simply ignored them. Gradually, the bandits here became more and more powerful, and they became arrogant. A while ago, Su Shi even had the idea to go down the mountain to rob.

Fortunately, the local farmers and soldiers discovered it in time. The bandits had just come down the mountain. Before they could make any move, their outstretched claws were cut off and they were forced to retreat into the mountains.

Is Su Shi the one who is willing to suffer?

After the transaction with Zhang Jian was completed, he freed up his hands and ordered Hu Yunfeng of the Third Dragon Cavalry Regiment to go straight to Moyun Ridge with two hundred peasant soldiers.

After eating enough and seeing meat stars from time to time, the males in Huangcaoling and Houzhiling became stronger and stronger.Although it is far less burly and powerful than the Su family army, it still has strength when running, and it can kill the enemy with a swing of a knife.

More and more people passed the assessment and joined the army of farmers and soldiers. After seeing that the number had exceeded 1000, Su Shi created a new unit - auxiliary soldiers.

The so-called auxiliary soldiers refer to a branch of arms between regular soldiers and peasant soldiers.

Their tasks are basically the same as those of regular soldiers. The only difference is that they arrive on the battlefield and also perform the work of logistics soldiers, such as escorting grain and grass, paving bridges and roads, and other tasks.

Su Shi stipulated that auxiliary soldiers should enjoy No. 11 salary, which is 50 yuan per month.If you want to become an auxiliary soldier, you must have a background as a peasant soldier and have experience in killing enemies on the battlefield.

To be precise, the auxiliary soldiers are the highest soldiers of the alien race.

Planted.Because according to Su Shi's regulations, if you want to become a regular soldier, you must be of Han nationality.
