Ning Shu almost knew what the border army was like. The sky was high and the emperor was far away. Many soldiers bullied the people more than the Rong clan, and the soldiers were like combs.

Infighting is the best thing for bullying one's own people, and some soldiers will defeat the Rong tribe and be defeated.

The treasury is empty, and you have to raise money to support these people.

"I don't want money. Since the Rong tribe can break through the city wall every time, it's better to exchange something instead of letting them plunder it. We can give food, tea, and silk, but the Rong tribe also has to come up with something of equal value."

It’s boring to die in a war, so if you want to do it, you can start an economic war.

I want something, latte or coal mine to exchange it.

It is difficult to train a person so well, but it is so easy to raise a person, and you can give whatever you want.

When things that were in exchange for life in the past can now be exchanged for things that they have, tea, silk, exquisite ceramics, and things they enjoy in a rich country.

If economic dependence is formed, if you are disobedient, you will directly impose economic sanctions.

"Did the Empress Dowager mean to open trade with the Rong people?" Gu Xueshu understood Ning Shu's meaning immediately, shook his head and said, "Empress, this is not allowed. If you open a door of convenience for merchants, merchants value profit over the country, this is absolutely not allowed."

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and businessmen are at the end, and their status is not very high.

Ning Shu said lightly: "Of course, if you are from the court, the birthday gift the emperor wants is actually very simple, that is, to establish a trading post on the border. Of course, you can collect the money. Since the border army has nothing to do, we should repair the trade war. If you can try it or not."

"Let's come back, the people on the border can't withstand the destruction. Soldiers are also humans. If you can reduce losses, you can reduce losses." Ning Shu said very barely: "Anyway, there is no money in the treasury. No matter how much the harem saves money and saves food, he will not be able to save military pay."

Ning Shu smiled and said, "If the trade station can be built, the emperor will grow up and know that it is your wish. He will definitely be extremely moved. Regardless of whether he succeeds or not, nothing will be worse than the current situation."

courtier:……

Just ask them to pay?

Also a birthday gift?

A trading post requires a lot of money, and it seems that the Queen Mother meant to do a big fight, but whoever went to the border to supervise the workforce, the border troops were not vegetarians and might not be able to come back.

"The Empress Dowager, I'm afraid that she has established a trading post, but it may be very chaotic, with the prices of the things and the Rong people being uncivilized and arrogant. At that time, they will not be guaranteed for their lives."

Prince Li directly mentioned the hidden dangers, Ning Shu said: "So you need to come up with a specific charter, price and trade war laws. As for security issues, aren't there any border troops stationed in the border?"

"Empress, this may not work." Prince Li was very helpless. Although the trading station sounded good, it was difficult to implement.

Ning Shu smiled and said, "The emperor is looking forward to the birthday gift. It's too fast to build it. Now the Rong tribe is ready to move. It must be built before winter."

The court officials were very upset when they asked them to contribute money and efforts. Ning Shu said, "Let's do this, the Ai family took out their salary over the years and some rare jewelry. The sisters in the harem will also contribute to the trading station."

Jushi Gu bowed and said, "I have received the order, but I don't have much property."

"As long as you can, just be a member of the ranks." Ning Shu said. Some princes and ministers have a very comfortable life, and their family property is rich, so they know that they ask for money from others.

"I hope I can get a charter as soon as possible. As far as the Ai family knows, these places still have resources, especially the rivers under the Tianshan Mountains, which contain excellent quality jade. After being polished by flowing water, the mountains and flowing water jades, and those mountains covered by snow. I hope that one day, these places will be included in the territory of the Great Zhou." Ning Shu stood up and said loudly, "Even the Rong tribe has to bow down to the Great Zhou."

Ning Shu spoke passionately. The courtiers below knelt down and were worried. He couldn't bear to take out the money and cut his heart into pieces.

After retreating, Ning Shu quickly handed the child over to Xier beside him and shook his arm. The child was getting heavier and heavier.

It's a bit tiring to pick it up later.

Ning Shu sorted out his warehouse, took out the silver notes, and there were some gold jewelry that could be melted, but some jade could not do it.

Ning Shu summoned the concubines in the harem and asked everyone to donate some money, but there were actually no rats in the treasury.

These concubines heard that they were birthday gifts for the little emperor, but they also gave face, and some of them took out some.

Fumin gave more, a silver note worth ten thousand taels and some jewelry.

"These are all given to me by the previous emperor. Since the treasury is tight, I will take them out." Fumin said.

Ning Shu nodded, "Thank you for the people on the border."

Fumin smiled shyly, and then returned to his palace, staying in the palace all day long and never coming out.

I guess I didn't recover from the loss of my lover.

This matter was going on in an orderly manner. The ministers raised money, and the aristocratic families donated more money. With the donations from the harem, they could almost build a trading station.

The question is who will supervise the worker now? The border environment is relatively harsh. If there is a conflict with the army, it is possible that it cannot come back.

So who went?

Ning Shu asked who went there, and there was a silence below. Well, Ning Shu really wanted to go there, but it was impossible.

At this time, there is no origin of the world, and there is definitely no origin of the world in this palace.

The most fear of the air suddenly quieted down. The courtiers all lowered their heads and endured the pain to donate money. Now they still have to do such a dangerous thing. The journey is long and they can't come back for a year or two.

Finally, Master Gu stood up and said, "I am willing to go to the border."

Mr. Gu is the most vulnerable of the three auxiliary ministers. There is no family to rely on. To convince the public, you must make some achievements. Moreover, the treasury cannot afford the money now.

It is not good to solve this problem by using this method. Although Gu Xueshi thought that the Empress Dowager wanted to turn the blame, the court basically didn't pay much money and wanted to do such a big project.

"Don't make it too complicated. It can shelter from the wind and rain, and can accommodate many stalls. In fact, it's similar to the vegetable market." Ning Shu said directly, "The Ai family will send a team of people to protect you, and then give you a gold medal for death. If you encounter special circumstances, take action first and then report, summon more folk carpenters, and the army will use it."

Raising soldiers for a thousand days can use troops for a while, carrying guns can kill enemies, and planting rice seedlings in the fields is a great soldier.

"I know, and I will definitely achieve my mission." said Mr. Gu.
