After Maliksha returned from the Song Dynasty, he immediately sent a large delegation and specially selected translation talents to introduce the works of the Song Dynasty to learn the experience of governing the country.

Seljuk and Dasong joined forces, which is definitely not good news for Eagle Fort.

After years of operation, Huoshan has a strong power in the northern part of Seljuk, and is so huge that the empire can't do anything about them. However, once Seljuk learns the complete set of experience in the Song Dynasty, it may not be possible.

Wisdom Elders and Musavi, they all knew that the Song Dynasty had always been a secular society, and it was like this for a thousand years or two thousand years. They rely on sages and ancestral laws to govern the world, and it is definitely not the will of the gods.

If the Seljuk Empire also became a secular society, it would undoubtedly be a disaster.

It is best to have problems before the two empires cooperate and let them be finished!

Let such prosperity become a bubble!

Only when they are finished will the light of God shine on the entire world.

There are many people like them who keep praying for the end of the Song Dynasty.

But the only one who can really make Song Dynasty ruined is himself!

As the helm of the empire, Wang Ning'an is scraping his stomach and thinking about solutions to the problem.

5 million stones of grain are not a small amount.

Even if you send troops to rob, you must first find the target. Where can I save 5 million stones of food besides the Song Dynasty? And once the war begins, both jade and stone will be burned, and just sending troops will consume a lot of food. If you defeat it, it will be more than worth the loss. Even if you win, occupy the land, sprinkle seeds, wait for harvest, and then transport it back to the Song Dynasty, it is estimated that time will not be enough.

After all, from now until autumn, it has only been half a year.

If you can't get enough food before winter, the cold winter will be enough to take away hundreds of thousands or even millions of lives. Wang Ning'an is unwilling to bear this price no matter what.

"So... there is only one way, that is, cheating!"

Xiao Guanyin said mercilessly: "Your Majesty, you should use your ability to cheat people without paying your life. Hurry up and take the wrong move, the darker the better, otherwise if you starve to death, your wise and magical image will be ruined!"

Wang Ning'an rolled his eyelids and said helplessly: "You can't learn from them. You should use some good words, such as peaceful communication, mutual benefit, coexistence and prosperity, and development together... In short, you should say more good words, don't say bad things, just think about it in your heart. If you can't control your mouth, after all, it may really fall on your own...you say yes?"

Xiao Guanyin was too lazy to pay attention to Wang Ning'an's fallacies, but he was in the mood to vent his temper. It seemed that there was a way.

"The plan will be released?"

"It's very simple. I'm going to visit various countries." Wang Ning'an smiled and said, "My Song Dynasty held a grand birthday celebration, and all countries came to the court. Now that the new king ascended the throne, he should speak to all countries and bring greetings and friendship from the superior country."

Xiao Guanyin rolled her eyes and suddenly laughed.

"This is another trick. You fooled the Liao Kingdom so much back then, but now you still want to do it? Are you not afraid that others will see through it?"

"Of course not afraid!"

Wang Ning'an smiled and said, "Some methods are unsatisfactory, look at it!"

...

Turning around, Wang Ning'an summoned the Political Affairs Hall and officials from six ministries. He proposed to form a return fleet and allocate 5 million trumpens to purchase goods, hand them over to the fleet, carry them overseas, and reward the countries to demonstrate the demeanor of the Song Dynasty.

His statement immediately attracted heated discussion.

Some people support it very much and exchange their respects. When they come to visit, the Song Dynasty should visit it. It is reasonable to bring gifts, but more people do not agree.

What a joke? Da Song owed a lot of debts and couldn't fill the holes. He even gave money to others to give gifts. He was so ill!

Is it really wrong to be a country and I would rather be wronged than to be worthy of my customers?

Could it be that the prince is also pedantic?

Or is he immersed in the coming of the court in all countries and could not extricate himself?

Everyone was skeptical, but Sima Guang, who knew his master too much, not to mention that the two of them had discussed finding ways to make food for waste.

"Do you have to use these goods to exchange for food?"

Wang Ning'an smiled, "I have this idea. I calculated that we had control of the food for Zhan Po and Jiaozhi, and we could not get more. We could only go to Tianzhu from the sea route. We had purchased war horses from Tianzhu before. The sea route was quite familiar. I guess we could get 1 million stones of food back from Tianzhu."

Sima Guang said: "I heard that India has a vast territory and fertile land. It should not be difficult to get 1 million stones of grain. But this little grain is still not enough? Can you buy more?"

Wang Ning'an shook his head, "No, the sea route is very risky, and the Indians are divided into various parts and princes everywhere. This trip may not be able to get what you want. You can't bet on India."

Ouyang Xiu immediately asked, "Then, where should I put it?"

"Japan!"

Wang Ning'an explained: "Water is closest to us and has a familiar route. From the docks in Cangzhou and other places, thousands of ships can be used to transport food and food, which is safe and reliable, and the time is short, so it is the best choice."

After saying that, there was no applause, but on the contrary, many people seemed disappointed.

Prince, you have only such skills, why are you weaker than before?

You don’t think about it. Japan is so poor that there is nothing except gold, silver and sulfur. I want to squeeze food from Japan and solve the famine in the Song Dynasty. Isn’t this a question?

Not feasible, not feasible at all!

"Haha... I know your concerns. Japan does not have much food, but after all, as a country, it still has some accumulation. It is very hopeful to knock on bones and suck marrow and squeeze millions of stones!"

Everyone shook their heads together. Prince, the whole country is not foolish. Who would endure hunger and give food to others is unreliable no matter how you look at it.

Jia Changchao pondered for a long time, and suddenly smiled and said, "Jingping, don't keep it aside. Tell me quickly, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to give Japan a generous gift, 3 million guan of copper coins, and a lot of skills and workshops."

It would be fine if I didn’t say it, but the more I said it, the more confused it became.

Wang Ning'an also simply opened the skylight and told everyone about his plans.

...

The Song Dynasty faced many problems, one of which was the inflow of gold in the Western Regions, the increase in the supply of money, which caused the price to be reshuffled, and the decline of the countryside was also related to this.

It can be seen that it is not a good thing to suddenly pour in a large amount of money.

With the size of the Song Dynasty, it is still unbearable. If it falls on Japan, it is probably going to be able to make them burst.

"We find a way to flow this money into Japan, causing their economic chaos and changing people's minds."

Song Xiang said curiously: "What the prince means is to disturb Japan and then purchase grain while the chaos is in trouble?"

"No!"

Wang Ning'an shook his head, "Our direct action will only make Japan alert, but it is not beautiful. What we should do is to let Japan bring the food to it."

"That's what I plan to do. I give Japan money and technology. Japan will be like a child who has suddenly grown up, with no place to vent... The economic order is chaotic, and they will definitely move outward, that is, they will attack other countries."

Attack other countries?

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Do Japan have neighboring countries?

It seems that the one closest to Goryeo is just across the sea!

Could it be that Japan is going to attack Goryeo?

Sima Guang read the classics and history well and immediately remembered a battle - Baijiangkou!

In fact, this is an inconspicuous battle. Both in the court and the people, it seems insignificant, and it is far less magnificent than defeating Goguryeo.

Sima Guang knew that this battle was because he was well-informed and powerful. Of course, he did not take this battle too seriously. He only knew that the battle occurred in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang army and the Sillas teamed up to destroy Baekje. The remnants of Baekje invited the Japanese to send troops, and the two sides fought at Baijiangkou.

The Tang Dynasty defeated the more with fewer victory, cut down tens of thousands of ears and gave it to Japan. From then on, a thousand years of peace was established. Moreover, after the defeat of Japan, it sent a Tang envoy to humbly learn everything about the Tang Dynasty, and was extremely obedient.

And from then on, Japan ended the ancient tomb era and entered the feudal period.

In fact, although Japan is known as the All-Eternal Family, they actually entered the dynasty period very late. Overall, it is a very backward country. In the long history, Japan is also an optional character, completely a border island and a wilderness.

Of course, in later history, it was a joke that because he was in the wilderness of the border, Japan was the first to come into contact with industrial civilization, completed industrialization first, and became the most powerful country in Asia, and the largest power outside the entire West.

It is precisely because of this that the Battle of Baijiangkou, as the first head-on confrontation between China and Japan, is very meaningful.

Wang Ning'an also specially studied that because Japan is located on an island with frequent earthquakes, it is scarce and life is difficult, and they are extremely eager for land.

In the past history, as long as Japan is unified and as long as its power is strong, it will attack Goryeo without thinking twice.

The food from Japan alone cannot solve the problem of the Song Dynasty, but with Goryeo, the situation is different.

As long as they encourage the two countries to go to war, they all need to purchase weapons from the Song Dynasty and seek support.

Once they fight hard, their eyes will be red!

Not to mention food, even if they were asked to exchange slaves for it, it would be fine.

When everyone heard this, they finally understood Wang Ning'an's idea and also knew why he was hiding and was unwilling to explain it clearly!

You're so cruel!

You are making food, you are simply eating human flesh!

But... it's really good!

But who can implement it?

Wang Ning'an had a candidate long ago, and he asked someone to call Zhang Dun back to the capital.

"Zihou, you know the situation in Japan, you are the most suitable one!"

"I won't go, I won't go even if I die!" Zhang Dun suddenly had his hair and hair. He went crazy when he remembered his experience of going to Japan!

Wang Ning'an scratched his head, "That... Zihou, I don't think there is anything shameful about it. Isn't it just recruiting a warrior and leaving a seed for others. There are only more than a thousand people in total, or you guys share the burden... nothing, really nothing..."

Zhang Dun cried, "Master, where did you know? I have never said it!"
