The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Emperor Jingren nodded slightly, naturally agreeing with what Huo Zhanting said.

The same is true for the entire Dayong Dynasty.

If the generals had retreated and shown fear first, how could the Yong Dynasty have achieved its current stability in such a short period of time?

From a certain perspective, Emperor Jingren still quite agrees with Huo Zhanting's statement.

Emperor Jingren picked up Huo Junyu's policy paper and flipped through it casually.

Although he had a smile on his face, everyone could see that he was just giving her a little face for the sake of Huo Zhanting and Shen Qinglan.

Jiang Yuanbin, Meng Ran and others looked at each other and they all understood what was going on and were confident of winning.

They really didn't believe what kind of policy paper Huo Junyu could write.

Don't use any tricks to attract chickens and dogs to fight, so as not to pollute the ears of the emperor.

Those who have placed bets at Zhenxiu Tower are now eager to try!

Although the win is not much, but a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat!

Those who invest less can at least go to the market and buy an extra piece of meat to enjoy as a snack.

Those who invested a lot have already started planning to buy some cloth for their wives or parents.

Therefore, at this moment, everyone's eyes were looking at Emperor Jingren impatiently.

I hope Emperor Jingren can take a casual look and announce the answer quickly!

"what?"

As Emperor Jingren watched, his expression changed from relaxed at the beginning to suddenly sitting up straight.

His eyes were fixed on Huo Junyu's policy paper, and his expression gradually became solemn.

Everyone looked at Emperor Jingren's expression with some surprise. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

After a moment, Emperor Jingren took a deep breath and handed the policy paper to Li Fude. Then he looked at Huo Junyu meaningfully and asked:

"Huo Junyu, come up."

Huo Junyu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't show any fear. He strode directly to the front of Emperor Jingren and bowed to him:

"Long live the Emperor!"

Emperor Jingren looked at the little guy in front of him who was imitating an adult, and couldn't help but chuckle. He slowed down his tone and asked:

"Is this your own idea?"

Huo Junyu blinked, thinking of what Shen Qinglan had secretly told him before the competition, and then he said:

"Mother once told Yu'er that the national treasury is empty while the aristocratic family's treasury is full. If we can use the wealth of the aristocratic family to fill the treasury, then that's fine. After all, this land belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects."

"Of course, this is just a last resort."

After Huo Junyu said this, Jiang Yuanbin couldn't help it!

He took a step forward and retorted to Huo Junyu:

"The national treasury is in deficit. Using the support of the noble families can replenish the national strength as quickly as possible. How can this be a bad idea? Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

Huo Junyu looked at Jiang Yuanbin's excited expression, but he became serious for once.

That slightly childish face showed a hint of seriousness, and he asked back:

"Everyone in the world knows about this, but why has no one implemented it? Or, Master Jiang, do you have any specific method that can be implemented?"

"I……"

Jiang Yuanbin was speechless.

Of course he had no choice!

After all, although this seems like the court blatantly selling official positions, the aristocratic families may not be willing to accept it.

Not to mention that the price is astronomical, even the official position sold is just a good name, but has no real power.

I spent most of my money, but ended up buying an official who can't do anything. No one's money comes from the wind, and no one has seen so many suckers.

But if someone tries to implement this method by force, they will inevitably become the target of public criticism, which will not be worth the loss.

Therefore, although this method was highly praised by everyone in the court, no one dared to take on the task and offend a number of aristocratic families.

Seeing that Jiang Yuanbin had nothing to say, Huo Junyu turned back to look at Emperor Jingren and began to analyze the situation seriously:

"Selling official positions for profit like this will not only divide the relationship between the court and the aristocratic families, but will also not bring much benefit. It is a very bad idea with no benefit at all."

"So, Yu'er was thinking, if we want to enrich the national treasury, why do we have to take money from our own people? Why not make money from other countries?"

As Huo Junyu spoke to this point, his voice became more confident.

Although he was just a child, he showed the demeanor of a great man just by standing there.

"That sounds nice, but how can you get money from other countries? Can they give it to you for free?" Jiang Yuanbin retorted with a sneer.

Huo Junyu shook his head and explained seriously: "Of course we are not asking them to give it to us for free! But we can make other countries trade with us obediently."

"trade?"

Huo Junyu nodded and continued without hesitation:

"Our Great Yong Dynasty is located in the Central Plains, and the territory is vast and rich. Whether it is Xiqi, Nanjiang, or Xinyi and other countries, the reason they want to invade our territory is just to covet the wealth of our Great Yong."

"Whether it's Xinyi, Southern Xinjiang, Western Qi, or Eastern Zhou, their lands are either not suitable for growing food, or have many mountains, or are close to the sea. In any case, no matter where they are, lack of food is the main reason for them to start wars."

"It's summer now. According to their customs, they have begun to prepare to store winter food for the winter. However, they have been at war for years, and food is scarce. If they can't find reserves, many people will die in the winter."

"So, Jun Yu suggested to your majesty that you could open a trading point at the border and make some money from them before winter. Why not?"

When Huo Junyu said this, Jiang Yuanbin was already stunned.

Judging from Huo Junyu's various suggestions, this is indeed a very good idea, but... but...

Jiang Yuanbin wanted to refute, but he couldn't find any point to refute, and he became a little anxious.

Meng Ran frowned and said coldly, "Nonsense! Isn't this the same as us handing the supplies over to them?"

Huo Junyu blinked, as if he wanted to explain, but he didn't know how.

His mother only reminded him of this and didn't elaborate on the other details!

Seeing that Huo Junyu could not answer, Huo Junyan, who was listening on the side, stepped forward and saluted towards Emperor Jingren.

Seeing Emperor Jingren raised his hand with a smile, he looked at Meng Ran and said calmly:

"Mr. Meng is wrong. We in Dayong have the food they need, but they also have things we need."

"For example, the war horses of Xinyi, the iron casting technology of Xiqi, the rare medicinal materials of Nanjiang, the seafood of Dongzhou, etc., are also things that we lack in Dayong."

The main reason why Xinyi's cavalry is so powerful is that Xinyi's war horses are strong and can travel a thousand miles a day.

The iron casting skills of Xiqi were strong, which resulted in their weapons being sharper than those of Dayong.

As for Southern Xinjiang and Eastern Zhou, in short, each region has its own local characteristics.

It’s just that there were wars year after year in the past, so no matter who it was, they would hold these things very tightly and not want them to flow out.

But this does not mean that the Great Yong Dynasty does not covet their things.

Huo Junyan paused for a moment before continuing:

"If we set rules when trading, for example, if someone wants to buy our Dayong grain, cloth, cotton, etc., 50% must be traded in gold and silver, and the remaining 50% must be traded in these special items."

"This way, we can enrich our national treasury and acquire excellent war horses and weapons. No one else in the world has them, but we have them. Isn't this the real Celestial Empire? By then, the four directions will come to pay tribute in no time!"
