In the first month of the eighth year of Jingkang, in the Southern Song Dynasty, Yingtianfu New City.

The stage of Yingtianfu New City is now as prosperous and lively as the old Yingtianfu town passed down from the Southern Tang Dynasty. During the Zhengxian Festival, the people of Yingtianfu wore their best clothes and rushed shoulder to shoulder on the streets. All the streets were open in various transactions, selling all kinds of food and supplies, cultural supplies, and specialties from all over the world.

Oh, there are also Song Dynasty financial institutions that do not sell anything, such as quality database, Jiaozishu, Changshengku, etc.!

It's speechless. Although Zhao Kai, a time traveler, worked hard to promote the financial industry in the Northern Song Dynasty, issued cloth tickets and built several ticket numbers. In order to support the credit of cloth tickets, he has also adhered to the promise of repaying on time for several years. Moreover, cloth tickets have also maintained their credit well and have gradually been accepted by merchants in the Northern Song Dynasty.

However, compared with the Jiekuai, Qikuai, Jiaozipu and Changshengku in Luoyang, it is really not worth mentioning... After all, Liangjiang, Lianghuai, Liangzhe, Fujian and Guangdong are the hot lands for the world's economy!

Before the Xuanhe crisis, the southeast of the Song Dynasty was a little depressed due to the disaster of the Huashigang of Emperor Zhuangzong of Song and the Fang La Rebellion. However, with the large number of industrial and commercial workers in Central Plains commercial cities such as Kaifeng, Songzhou, and Xuzhou, as well as Zhao Huan, the "wise king" encouraged the Southeast industrial and commercial activities, and the loosening of overseas trade, the industrial and commercial activities in various parts of the Southeast have developed to a prosperous level!

Of course, Zhao Huan did this not because he had a little vision or economic mind, but because he followed Zhao Huan to the south to Kaifeng, Songzhou (formerly Yingtian Prefecture), and Xuzhou were almost all industrialists and commercial people.

After these people arrived in Yingtian, Zhao Huan regarded them as their own. Especially after Zhao Huan implemented the "emphasis on literature and abolished military affairs", he found that the literati and officials holding military power were more domineering than the original martial artists, so he loved these industrialists and businessmen who followed from the north even more.

Not only did they support them and prevent local officials from infringing on their interests, they also took out money from the sealed pile warehouse to lend it to small businessmen to help them start their own businesses in Jinling City.

Zhao Huan's "respecting martial arts and abolishing literature" large-scale new army also prompted the prosperity of Jinling's industry and commerce. Because some of the handicraftsmen who followed Zhao Huan to the south were military weapon supervisors.

After arriving in Jinling, Zhao Huan was worried that these people would go north to produce weapons for Zhao Kai, and the officials in the military weapon supervision could not control these "righteous people" - Zhao Huan himself was also held hostage by these righteous people, and knew how powerful they were.

So they simply borrowed loans to them and let them open shops to do business by themselves, so that they could not only accept orders from military equipment, but also allow them to accept orders from private sources.

With the help of Zhao Huan, by the eighth year of Jingkang, Yingtianfu New City (Jinling City) almost Kaifeng, Yingtian and Xuzhou's industry and commerce have been absorbed, and even developed better than before!

If Zhao Kai, the "time traveler", is ready to compete with Zhao Huan for economic development capabilities... Needless to say, the one who lost in the end must be Zhao Kai!

It’s not because Zhao Kai’s original level is too low (I’m only the second year of high school and don’t understand economics), but because Zhao Kai’s territory is difficult to make capital ideas.

Moreover, in order to promote the system of government troops, he actually confiscated a large amount of private land. If private property is not protected, it will certainly be difficult for industry and commerce to develop greatly. What's more, places like Beijing, Shaanxi, and Hedong are not very convenient before the railway emerges, and it is difficult to support the vigorous development of industry and commerce.

But everyone knows that Zhao Kai will not compete peacefully with Zhao Huan at all... Isn't it possible to directly grab the industrial and commercial city that Zhao Huan has worked hard to develop?

Although the brothers have not yet broken up, the emperor, officials, soldiers, people in Jinling City...even Jin Fushi, the "New Year's Envoy" who came from Goryeo, knew that there would be a battle between the two Song dynasties!

What? The Goryeo Kingdom and the Southern Song Dynasty reconciled?

It seems that there is no... Zhao Huan's army still occupies several islands of the Goryeo.

However, under Wanyan Zonggou's "suggestion", Goryeo Wang Wang Kai sent a New Year's delegation.

This mission quietly arrived at the very lively Jinling City on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the eighth year of Jingkang. However, he did not enter the city by the crowded Qinhuai River Water Gate, but went on a shore at the Yuejianglou Wharf. Then he walked into the city by the Jiangmen, and then entered the Jinling Imperial City through the corridor between Yuejiangmen and Xuanwu Gate.

At this moment, Jin Fushi, wearing Goryeo court uniform, was sitting upright in Chongzheng Hall, and was still persuading the Jinling official family in the Song Dynasty with a standard Henan accent.

"......The world of the Central Plains is like the three-legged tributary between Wei, Shu and Wu in the past, but it is slightly different. The difference is that the Central Plains was not occupied by a country, but was divided by the Northern Song Dynasty and the Great Jin Dynasty. Today, the Northern Song Dynasty is equivalent to a Shu Han who has both Jingyi and went north to recover Yong, Liang, Yu, Si and other prefectures. If Liu Bei had such strength, could he still tolerate Sun Quan? And would Sun Quan maintain the Sun-Liu alliance when he saw such Liu Bei?

Officials, now your enemy is not my Goryeo, nor the Jin Kingdom in the north, but the emperor of Luoyang who possesses Yong, Liang, Yu, Si and other prefectures!"

Zhao Huan listened to Jin Fushi's words and showed a wry smile on his face, and sighed: "You are right. Now the Jin thieves are no longer my enemy... but your Goryeo!"

Jin Fushi was stunned, and the preaching expression just now fell a little.

Zhao Huan smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not wrong, right? The reason why Wang Kai sent you here was not only because of my ninth brother who recognized the thief as his father, but because he was afraid that the Jin thief would lose the Central Plains and make up for Goryeo, right?"

He was really right!

Goryeo Wang Kai can now also smell the destruction of the country!

It’s not that the Jin people showed great malice, but that the strength was there! If the Jin people were good in the Central Plains, of course they would not come to Goryeo to "relieve poverty", but if they can’t stand in the Central Plains and people are driven out, they are likely to find the weak Goryeo.

Jin Fushi gritted his teeth: "I, Goryeo... are not that easy to bully!"

Zhao Huan shook his head: "You can't beat the Jin thieves. The Jin thieves have big tubes, fried pots, and hot pot... and they are now stationed in Haizhou, Goryeo, and can capture your Xijing, Kaijing, and Nanjing (Seoul) at any time!

The biggest difference between the Three Kingdoms and the Three Kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu this time is that the more you fight, the stronger you become! If the Jin thieves are defeated in the Central Plains and lose the land of Hebei, Yanyun, and Jingdong, they still have enough strength to destroy Goryeo. You must prepare early!"

Prepare?

What to prepare?

What's the funeral?

Jin Fushi showed a desperate expression!

Goryeo is a small country, a small country that the golden thieves can swallow in one bite. If hundreds of thousands of golden thieves really escape from the Central Plains to Goryeo, then Goryeo will die, which is not a country, but a seed!

How many people are there in Goryeo? How many people are there in two classes of nobles who can support poor and lower-middle peasants in Goryeo? If you have hundreds of thousands of gold thieves, you will completely replace the original two classes?

This replacement will not take several generations, and I don’t know that there is Goryeo, but only that there is Dajin!

Zhao Huan said: "Escape south... I will enclose a piece of land for you in the southern part of Goryeo. Let's do this first, and then find a way later."

Judging from this, Zhao Huan does not intend to interfere in the war in the north?

"Official family... don't you want to learn from Sun Quan?"

Zhao Huan smiled bitterly: "I know that there must be a battle between the two Song dynasties... I also want to learn from Emperor Wu Sun Quan. But I am not Sun Quan after the Battle of Red Cliff, but Sun Quan before the Battle of Red Cliff!

Zhao Kai is Cao Cao, and the Jin thief is Yuan Shao... Now Cao Cao is going to annex Yuan Shao's territory. Is Sun Quan capable of attacking the Central Plains to help Yuan Shao? All I can do is to defend Jiangdong... I will wait for Zhao Kai in Chibi!"

I have to say that although Zhao Huanren is cowardly, he is not confused yet and does not look down on himself at all - he is cowardly, how could he think he is very powerful?

Moreover, Zhao Huan is indeed not as strong as the Northern Expedition Zhao Kai... Not to mention whether there are horses, famous generals, and granular black gunpowder, these are not enough people!

Zhao Kai can pull out 500,000 troops!

Moreover, because most of the soldiers in the government have more than one Ding, Zhao Kai’s extreme mobilization ability is at least 700,000 to 800,000!

Zhao Huan only has 200,000 troops and does not have additional mobilization ability... 200,000 is smaller than 500,000, and offense is more difficult than defense. It often requires more troops to fight.

Therefore, the result of the Northern Expedition would inevitably be a crushing defeat... Even if it succeeds temporarily and defeats Jiangling, it will definitely lead to a loss of troops and generals in the end, and will be defeated and returned.

By then, Zhao Huan will have even fewer troops, and it is unlikely that he will even defend Jiangnan.

So what we need to fight is not a raid on Jingzhou, but a battle of Red Cliff!

It’s different to fight in Chibi. Zhao Huan had a naval army that was unique in the world, a large fortress of Ezhou, and an iron-army army that was used to fighting in concert with the navy.

Moreover, the people in the southeast did not support the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains - what are you going to do? Good days, but I ran so far to die? Moreover, I had to impose a lot of taxes to die, which was really not worth the loss. However, it was different to defending the southeast to resist Zhao Kai. Zhao Kai was a robber! He wanted to divide the land and land. The landlords, profiteers, and literati in the southeast all opposed it, so he would definitely support Zhao Huan.

This is much more likely to win than the blind Northern Expedition!

Maybe it can really win a Red Cliff-like victory... If it can win a Red Cliff, Zhao Huan's southeastern world will be able to maintain it.

Jin Fushi was a little anxious. You can be Sun Quan before the Battle of Chibi, but what should I do if Goryeo? It is about to destroy the country!

"Official family, are you planning to do nothing? Just watch Zhao Kai unify the north?" Jin Fushi asked loudly.

"Of course not..." Zhao Huan said, "I will issue an edict to abolish Zhao Kai's position as the crown prince and stop paying him 6 million yuan in salary! All I can do now is this."

OK, Zhao Kai is now fired!

And there is no compensation for resignation... there is no place to reason!
Chapter completed!
