It is now early November and the weather is getting colder and colder.
It snowed a little yesterday.
People are looking forward to snowing.
It¡¯s not because children like to play in the snow, but because auspicious snow heralds a good year, and snow can herald good weather in the second year.
¡°But that¡¯s not necessarily the case. The super blizzard the year before last and the blizzard last year caused more or less damage.
Dakang is really rare in recent years, or it can be said that Liu Mingqi's luck is very bad.
Since he came to Dakang, Dakang has been constantly unlucky.
In three years, floods, locusts, droughts, snowstorms, military disasters these major disasters came one after another.
It¡¯s also thanks to Dakang that he followed the path of the Song Dynasty and vigorously developed business.
If we had followed the path of the Ming Dynasty, the world might have been at war and the princes were everywhere.
The happiest person then will definitely be Liu Mingjing.
With his natural supernatural power and the talent of a general, he will most likely be sent to put out fires and suppress bandits when there are not enough manpower.
It¡¯s okay now. Although Dakang is riddled with holes, poor and hungry, there is still hope for people.
As long as we survive for another two years, and wait until sweet potatoes are planted all over the world, we will naturally be able to overcome the biggest difficulty.
Before fighting the outside world, you must first make peace with the inside.
This sentence still makes sense.
Only when the general well-being is stable can things outside be easy to talk about.
Of course, as long as the general well-being is stable, everything else will not matter.
Dakang, relying on his strong foundation, can destroy any hostile force.
Including the powerful and invincible Shi Wei.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Even when Shiwei defeated Dakang and abandoned his armor in the field, even when attacking the city, they still targeted Dakang, but they actually couldn't withstand such a heavy attrition.
Dakang can kill a million people in one battle, but as long as 200,000 people die in Shiwei's headquarters, there will be big trouble.
Even if the losses this time were more from their vassal tribes, in fact only about 100,000 people died in Shiwei's headquarters, it was still a very heavy loss.
Why?
The vassal tribes have basically been crippled.
The next time you ask them to go, they won't go to war at all.
Shi Wei forced them to no avail. Only the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled were left in the clan. Didn¡¯t they even retain any foundation?
¡°If Shi Wei forcefully recruits all the men, then these tribes would rather flee to the Qiyan Plateau, or seek refuge with Dakang, or go directly to sea, rather than die in vain and destroy their own tribes.
And from then on, no tribe dared to believe Shiwei's promise and was unwilling to accept their deployment.
Once Shi Wei shows any signs of weakening, they will attack Shi Wei crazily and divide the powerful Shi Wei into annihilation.
So no matter how proud Emperor Wei Pingzhi is and how much he looks down on these slave-like vassal tribes, he still has to pay all kinds of compensation that should be given, and give it in large amounts, and give it with great fanfare.
But after experiencing such a war, unless something great happens, Shiwei will not be able to organize another large-scale attack for at least three years.
They lost not only people, but also a large amount of stored wealth and food, and they also lost the hearts of the merchants in the neglected area.
When Dakang retreated, at least one-third of the fast-moving merchants had already rushed to Jinzhou Port with their carriages and followed their imperial troops back. It is conceivable that they would never Because they still had a house here, they came back the next year.
Even the remaining people did not leave, not because they wanted to continue doing business with Shi Wei, but because they did not catch up.
When spring comes next year, they will definitely try their best to run back to Dakang, or their own country and tribe, and never come back again.
There are so many that are scary!
When doing some business, you clearly promised to protect us, but in the end, you directly robbed us and made us lose everything.
What¡¯s the point of doing business like this?
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the end of all the benefits to you, I am making wedding clothes for you, I will eat too much before I will be fooled again!
As long as there are no businessmen traveling north and south to do business and buy and sell in various ways, Shiwei's things will pile up at home and become moldy and rotten, and Dakang's things will not be able to come in.
So long??Now that I'm here, what do you want me to say about you? "
"Haha, I can't help it, Uncle Su." Liu Mingqi said lazily: "If it were you, how could you bear it?"
"Nonsense!"
King Su scolded him, and then he, who was not good at speaking, changed the subject directly and forcibly, "I came here today to discuss something with you. You can help me think of a solution."
"good!"
Liu Mingqi is also used to his tough attitude when asking for help, so she doesn't care.
"Didn't our Dakang spend too much money this year because of the war? Even the household department is already empty, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is almost empty." King Su said: "The emperor complained to me this morning, saying that if this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to collect the rewards given out by the Queen Mother during the Spring Festival. I feel bad, and I want to ask you if our clan can think of something to support the emperor? "
Liu Mingqi finally understood.
? ?Where is it that you are looking for your own ideas?
It was purely because he had already had the idea, he just told it to himself and let himself judge the pros and cons.
The young man said calmly: "Clan? Will our clan donate money together?"
"It's not a donation." King Su said: "Do you know how much money the clan chamber of commerce made this year?"
"It should be 23 million taels?" Liu Mingqi said.
He definitely doesn't know the specific amount, but because when we let the clan chamber of commerce act as dealers, Prince Yu's Mansion had discussed it with everyone, and each family would give 10% of the total profit to help the poor people in the clan. .
At that time, the emperor agreed very much and even praised Liu Mingqi.
Liu Mingqi did not have a specific bill, but he knew that this year the Zongren Mansion announced that it had received 2.3 million taels of silver.
If you extrapolate this, 23 million taels is not an exaggeration.
"Yes."
King Su nodded and said, "Everyone earns quite a lot. Even if there was a military disaster this year and Jiangnan's sales were greatly affected, the results are very good. So I'm wondering if we, the people from the clan chamber of commerce, should do it." In the name of filial piety, give the Queen Mother ten million taels?"
"Ten million taels!?"
Liu Mingqi couldn't help but swallowed her saliva, "Uncle Su, your appetite is too big! It's equivalent to giving about half of everyone's profits to the Queen Mother? This is too taxing!"
"Without this clan chamber of commerce and the sale of your Prince Yu's products, would everyone be able to earn so much?" King Su snorted coldly, "The court is in difficulty this year, and the salary itself is not enough. If the Queen Mother can't make up the money, Qi, isn't it a shame for us, our ministers and younger generations, to force her to find a way to borrow money?"
