Chapter 318 The Enlightened Sun Yuanhua

Sun Yuanhua wanted to avoid Zhao Xing, the plague god, but he was still "catched" by the omnipresent Jinyiwei.

Sitting in the Governor Denglai's yamen, Zhao Xing smiled and said to Sun Yuanhua: "I admire Lord Sun's character and excellent academic knowledge; but I have great opinions on your party and ignoring the facts."

Sun Yuanhua was a little embarrassed. "As soon as you came, you would kill me about Denglai's money and food affairs. I haven't settled the score with you yet. You arranged for me to come. Your character is not good."

Zhao Xing said with confidence: "You pat your chest and answer me, should that guy be killed?"

Sun Yuanhua sighed: "I have impeached him countless times, but there are people above him and I can't take him down. You have helped me a lot."

In fact, he did not have much conflict with what Zhao Xing did, but he thought he could. It was just that the official group was born to be a mortal enemy of the Jinyiwei. If he did not express an opposing attitude and had a non-black and white personality, he would not have a good life among his colleagues in the future. Therefore, when he did not want to anger Donglin or Zhao Xing, he could only avoid it. He hoped that when this guy who couldn't say why would he leave, he would not offend him.

Unfortunately, Zhao Xing had many eyes and had nowhere to hide. At the same time, the matter of reopening Dongjiang Town was a major event, and it was also related to him, the governor of Denglai, so he had to come back with his nose pinched.

Governor Denglai is one of the four major governors of the Ming Dynasty. He has a total of 6 prefectures (Jinan, Dongchang, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Laizhou, and Dengzhou), and Denglai is roughly one-third of the province.

Later, with the rise of the Later Jin Dynasty, most of the land and sea areas north of the Shandong Peninsula, Tianjin Wei, Liaodong Peninsula and its south, east of the Bohai Bay, and west of Pyongyang, North Korea were under the jurisdiction of the Governor of Denglai, with a land and armies. The original Dongjiang Town was under the jurisdiction of Denglai.

Sun Yuanhua is the same as Yuan Keli at the time. Both understand Mao Wenlong's character and know the great role of Dongjiang Town. They sighed for Yuan Chonghuan's defeat of Dongjiang Town, but they were helpless. But this time, Zhao Xing built Dongjiang Town again, and Sun Yuanhua supported it from the bottom of his heart.

Zhao Xing looked at the left and right, so he lay on Sun Yuanhua's ear and whispered: "Rebuilding Dongjiang Town is the meaning of you and I understand it, but the emperor was worried that they would still kill Mao Wenlong to Yuan Chonghuan, and the emperor endorsed him with a complimentary attitude, and eventually he was worried that the morale of the army was unstable. Therefore, Dongjiang Town was still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Governor Denglai, and their logistics supply was still in the hands of the Governor Denglai."

Sun Yuanhua held back Zhao Xing's stinky mouth and felt relieved about such an arrangement. In fact, he was also worried about this.

"But the military pay for the navy and army under my jurisdiction is already short of money. If the court still does not release food and pay as usual, it may anger them. Although they are afraid of being timid because their little master and mistress are in Beijing, people's hearts are not old."

Zhao Xing sat back in his position and could talk about the rest openly.

"We should not count on the grants from the Ministry of Revenue. I really feel that it is difficult for you to pay for the allocations from the Ministry of Revenue. Their survival still depends on themselves."

Sun Yuanhua glanced at Geng Zhongming and others standing in the hall, and then looked at Zhao Xing: "Just relying on these generals who only know how to fight, kill, but don't know how to manage? Hehe, I guess in less than a year, if you spend all your four million silver, they will have to take Pidao refugees to me to beg for food."

Zhao Xing and Sun Yuanhua bit their ears, but they didn't hear Sun Yuanhua's words, but the four people standing in the hall could hear clearly, and they were a little embarrassed at that time because they were right.

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "I only ask you to do one thing to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing and cultivate a strong army."

Sun Yuanhua seemed to understand something immediately, and stood up and refused firmly: "If you want to do something, Mao Shuai opened a port and Liaodong Yishi. You and the generals didn't know that this was the only one that Yuan Chonghuan made Mao Shuai's ten major crimes. We should not harm these generals and depose Dongjiang Town."

In order to survive, Mao Wenlong opened the market in Shinyiju, North Korea, and exchanged goods for horses and then resold them to the mainland. This is a fact and irrefutable.

But Zhao Xing smiled indifferently: "Oh, Lord Sun said where I went. I worked hard to rebuild Dongjiang Town. Is it just to destroy them again? Opening a port is necessary, but the Ming Dynasty banned sea. So, the north and south goods supplying Pi Island must be transferred from your Dengzhou port. As for what trafficking, it is enough to be controlled by you."

After hearing this, Sun Yuanhua nodded and said, "This is what I should do in the Governor Denglai Yamen. I just don't know what goods they all need."

Zhao Xing smiled and said, "Of course it can't be something that can help the enemy, except for the necessary food and cloth."

"I have to calculate the number of people in this case and release it according to the number of people."

Zhao Xing smiled: "Of course, but what they need is the old Baigan strong liquor produced by my Yansui border army. For example, you can get at least fifty or sixty ships per month."

Sun Yuanhua wondered and asked: "Are everyone in Dongjiang Town drunkards?"

Mao Zhongming immediately replied: "In order to restore the old national park in Liaodong and to avenge the family and friends of the dead, they vowed not to restore Liaodong, not to avenge great revenge, and never drink alcohol."

Sun Yuanhua immediately looked at Zhao Xing: "What should I do with so much spirits?"

Zhao Xing had no choice but to spread his hands: "In order to stabilize the northwest, I found a way out for the family of the border army, so I planted sweet potatoes on a large scale. But people couldn't eat that thing, so I asked to use ten kilograms of sweet potatoes to exchange for one kilogram of rice. But what do I do for pressing so many sweet potatoes? There is no way, I have to find a place for those sweet potatoes, otherwise, even if I am the God of Wealth, I have to pay for it as my underwear, so I invented sweet potatoes to make wine. Well, fortunately, the yield is good."

When he heard that it was a technical matter, Sun Yuanhua, who was also a scientist, immediately became spiritual: "How about it, the winemaking method invented by Lord Zhao can work."

Zhao Xing said proudly: "It's okay. Anyway, I don't have to force you this time, and the people in the northwest are starting to be happy to grow sweet potatoes."

Sun Yuanhua sighed at the time: "Wei Zhongxian forced the implementation of sweet potatoes, but it caused resentment from heaven and earth. Lord Zhao used a transformation to make the people willing. It is really two ways of doing one policy. Different methods will make the people rich, which will be completely opposite."

Zhao Xing spread his hands: "But I don't work as the commander of the Jinyiwei to arrest corrupt officials, but I don't do my job to encourage people to grow sweet potatoes and make wine. Now I'm in trouble. The people can eat enough, and refugees have jobs to do, but I have to worry about the sales of strong liquor, otherwise I can't sell it."

Sun Yuanhua also made things difficult for Zhao Xing at that time: "But you can't use all these unsold spirits to Dongjiang Town as military pay..."

The few people in the hall also grinned.

"What am I doing to make Dongjiang Town drink and live? I sold these spirits to Houjin, North Korea, or Japan through Dongjiang Town, in exchange for a lot of money to support Dongjiang Town."

Hearing this, Sun Yuanhua jumped up at that time: "Aren't you still a foe?"

Zhao Xing pressed his hands: "Sit down, sit down, I don't understand, why is the strong wine going to be the enemy? Tell me clearly, otherwise, I will sue you for slander."

Sun Yuanhua shouted: "Liaodong is bitter and cold, and strong wine can keep the Jurchens cold, so the Jurchens are good wine."

"Good wine produces alcoholics and can also bring a steady stream of wealth to Dongjiang Town."

Sun Yuanhua said again: "Warriors can increase their combat effectiveness every time they drink."

"But drinking for a long time can eliminate fighting spirit and make the body weak."

"Wine can--" He really couldn't say anything other than these two points.

"Drinking for a long time can weaken fertility. Drinking for a long time can weaken muscles and bones. Drinking for a long time can make people not want to fight for childbirth. Drinking for a long time can make people lose their walls. Drinking for a long time can make people what, what and what that."

Sun Yuanhua was stunned in the local area. After a long time, he murmured: "It seems that trafficking spirits to the Jurchen Liaodong is a poison that kills people without blood."

Zhao Xing stood up and held Sun Yuanhua's shoulder: "Is that right? Where am I selling spirits? I'm going to sell poison. You have to support me. The spirits, trafficking through the window of Dongjiang Town, can not only reduce the combat effectiveness of Jiannu, but also reduce their population. And our Dongjiang Town can also make huge profits in it, raise soldiers and people, and open up sales for Laobaigan in the northwest, and allow more northwest refugees to have work and income. Why don't we do such capital enemies?"

After thinking for a long time, Sun Yuanhua couldn't help but murmur: "What Lord Zhao seems to be right."
