Chapter 62 Trading, real power generals
"No gifts! Those who don't know will not be guilty!" Seeing Wang Han's fist-clamping ceremony and Wang Han's words, Song Huizong couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth and said with a generous smile. If he hadn't had to talk about grain planting, he really wanted to punish Wang Han.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wang Han said with a smile and sat down again. Then he pushed the wooden box with potatoes in front of Song Huizong and said, "Your Majesty, this is the new grain my fleet has obtained overseas overseas. It can produce 3,000 kilograms per mu. I have asked someone to try planting this new grain. And the method of making this new grain is simple and diverse, easy to eat, and full."
When talking about the new grain seeds, Song Huizong Zhao Ji's face also became serious. He picked up the potatoes in the box and looked at them carefully.
The importance of high-yield new grain seeds is self-evident, especially for the Song Dynasty today, bandits and rebels are rampant. The reasons are that many people are not full or even face the problem of starvation. If this problem can be solved, it will undoubtedly be much more stable for the Song Dynasty, and even if they fight with foreigners or defend foreigners, they will have more confidence. In addition, they can expand their troops and increase their troops to suppress bandits and stabilize the country. This can be said to be of many benefits.
"How can I believe you didn't lie to me?" After careful observation, Song Huizong put down the potatoes and asked.
"Even though Your Majesty can find someone, it is definitely not any medicinal herbs or known grains. This potato can also be cooked on the spot to see if it can be eaten." Wang Han said confidently after hearing this.
"Go and call the Imperial Doctor Hua from the Imperial Physician Bureau." Hearing this, Song Huizong immediately waved to the back, and the two guards quickly opened the door and left.
"How many more do you have this kind of grain plant?" After the guards went out, Song Huizong asked Wang Han again.
"Not many, there are 3,500 kilograms! It is enough to make the first batch of grain." Wang Han said with a smile when he heard this.
"Then what do you want?" Hearing this, Song Huizong believed in the new grain seeds and asked.
"Ask a title that can lead troops to fight." Wang Han said with a smile.
"You want to be a general, but you are really young and promising. So what general do you want to be?" Song Huizong said with a smile. He was not surprised by Wang Han's request. He also came to find himself with new grains, but he didn't want to be a yellow and white thing. Naturally, he just wanted to be an official. Zhou Meng had wanted and reported Wang Han before, and Wang Han's skills were very good in reporting. If a martial artist wanted to make some achievements, the possibility of becoming a general was greater than that of a civil servant.
"Your Majesty is joking. I still have some understanding of the rights of those generals. If I just want a general with a name, I will definitely not take out this new grain. There are other ways to obtain it." Upon hearing this, Wang Han shook his head. Wang Han still heard about how miserable the generals of the Northern Song Dynasty were suppressed by civil servants.
"You want military power!" Hearing this, Song Huizong's face became angry and looked at Wang Han with great majesty.
"Clang clang clang!" The guards around him also took out the sword at his waist. As long as Song Huizong gave the order or Wang Han had any abnormal movement, they would pounce on him and chop Wang Han into pieces.
"Yes, not." Wang Han ignored the movements of the surrounding guards. He still smiled and said, "I don't need Your Majesty to give me any military power of the existing army of the Song Dynasty, nor do I need Your Majesty to give me any supplies. I just need Your Majesty to give me a name that allows me to recruit soldiers and horses by myself and have the right to suppress bandits by myself. I will bear all military expenses, military rations, weapons and equipment within two years, and I will still abide by the dispatch of the court."
Upon hearing this, Song Huizong couldn't help but carefully examine Wang Han. What Wang Han wanted was so advantageous to him. Not only could he get new grains by paying whatever the court could pay, but he also got an army that the court could mobilize, and some people helped suppress bandits and quell civil strife.
However, as an emperor, there are more things to look at. What he cared more about was that the military power of the army formed by the name Wang Han wanted was in Wang Han's own hands, and he also had the right to recruit soldiers. This was almost approaching the princes, and the fewer were only fiefdoms and more restrictions. This was the emperor's taboo. If it weren't for the importance of the new grain planting, he had already ordered the killing of Wang Han before he had obtained it.
"You can change the conditions, gold and silver, beauty, other official positions, titles, or this Imperial Fragrance Building." Song Huizong said.
"I don't lack gold and silver. Beauty is not important to me, a person of age. I don't need to pass on my family line. I can change my title with military merits, and other official positions are useless to me. I am not good at it. I can't change new grains to Yuxianglou." Upon hearing this, Wang Han shook his head and said.
"Are Your Majesty afraid that I will become bigger?" Wang Han said with a smile: "Your Majesty can rest assured that my soldiers will only be recruited among bandits. I only need two years of military power. Two years later, your Majesty will be incorporated or divided, or disbanded. Two years later, I only need to retain my title and be hereditary, and arrange a new position for me. Your Majesty can also send people to supervise me, but those who only know how to make trouble will not be sent. Without orders, my army will only suppress bandits and will not interfere with others."
"Why?" asked Emperor Huizong of Song. Wang Han added this condition and it was like raising soldiers for the Song Dynasty. Wang Han's situation was between the generals and princes who were recruited. It was more dangerous than the generals who were recruited, but it was not as threatened by the princes.
"Because of the hatred of our ancestors! The expectations of our ancestors, and the desire to leave a fame for our descendants." Wang Han said with a smile, but did not say in detail. Moreover, Wang Han did not lie, but the age of our ancestors was far away.
"I can give you this right." After hearing this, Song Huizong thought about it carefully before saying, "But I also have a condition that your troops must not exceed 50,000. And if you dare to have any clues, I will give you your military power at any time. Even if you give me the contribution of new grain, I will not spare you easily. In addition, I will give you a house in the capital, where you and your family will come here to live."
"I agree to Your Majesty's conditions. But I am alone and no relatives are hostages for Your Majesty. Your Majesty will investigate it clearly afterwards. And I also want to add one. All the conditions in this Yuxiang Tower are the conditions for me to exchange with Your Majesty." Wang Han said with a smile when he heard this.
"Yes." Upon hearing this, Song Huizong nodded. He agreed to Wang Han's conditions. Wang Han agreed to his conditions, and the restrictions he put on himself were only one of them. The main reason was that the new grain was too important and worth his risk. Moreover, he also had the confidence of an emperor. Even if Wang Han could really become a threat within two years, under so many restrictions, he would definitely not be able to make a big wave.
Seeing that Song Huizong agreed, Wang Han smiled and said, "This is naturally, Your Majesty's words! Ten days later, I will bring people to the palace with grain to be sealed."
(It should have been a little more complicated, but I don’t have the word count, just dig a hole.)
——————————
Song Huizong left. After talking with Wang Han, he left with the potato samples and did not continue to visit Li Shishi. Half an hour after Song Huizong left, the deeds of the house deeds of the Yuxianglou, including the body deeds of each person in the Yuxianglou, were sent to the room where Wang Han was, and even Li Shishi's body deeds.
"Miss Shishi. I'm sorry, I asked you to change your boss and also made you lose an important guest." Wang Han said with a smile, holding Li Shishi's body contract.
The body contract of Li Shishi is here, and Song Huizong did not make anyone move. It has already explained the problem. Today is the last time Song Huizong came to Yuxianglou and the last time he came to find Li Shishi. In the future, the body contract of Yuxianglou belongs to Wang Han, and Song Huizong will not come again. Li Shishi's body contract is given to Wang Han, so naturally he will not come to find him again.
"To me, it doesn't matter who the boss is. I am just a first-class female. Guests also have choices for guests. I won't complain about anything." Hearing this, Li Shishi shook his head and said, still smiling as usual.
"You will be glad because this is fate." Wang Han said with a smile. "I have heard of Daming for Miss Shishi, and I have long wanted to discuss with Miss Shishi. But it was too late today, so Miss Shishi will go back to rest earlier. I will definitely find Miss Shishi to discuss with her first tomorrow."
"Mr. Wang, Shishi retired." Hearing this, Li Shishi stood up and bowed slightly to Wang Han and said.
