Chapter 177

Wang Deyong said that his Majesty told Wang Ning'an to be talented and rely more on it. After arriving in Cangzhou, Wang Ning'an made appropriate arrangements and argued at the negotiating table, which made the old man look at him with admiration. It turned out to be a young talent!

But after actually drinking with him, Wang Deyong realized that this kid is not just awesome, but a monster! When it comes to business and painting big cakes, no one should compare with Wang Ning'an. The more he talks with this kid, the deeper he gets. He can use the benefits of spoiling the sky and bury you alive!

Wang Ning'an's conversation unknowingly changed the two sides of the confrontation.??

Originally, the Liao Kingdom wanted to take advantage of it, but the Song Dynasty wanted to resist.

Both sides are facing each other and do not give in.

But Wang Ning'an outlined a big cake for the people of Liao, and the conflict was thrown to the Liao. Do you want millions of chunks of trade taxes or the pitiful annual monies? Choose between the two!

On one hand, there is face and on the other hand.

Obviously, it is impossible to choose one of two!

Logically speaking, the Liao Kingdom boasted of being the largest country in the world, and was very bold and would not bow its head easily. If you continue to ask for annual tribute, you can boast that the Song Dynasty surrendered to the Liao Kingdom and have explanations for the many tribes in the vassal barbarians and grasslands, which can make them more obedient.

The problem is that although face is good, if you increase your income tenfold at once, can you let go of this little face...

Both envoys were distracted and had no master. After the banquet, Xiao Dayou found Liu Liufu. Lord Liu had been ravaged by Wang Ning'an and was seriously injured and was on the verge of collapse. He felt uncomfortable when he heard the three words Wang Ning'an.

"Mr. Xiao, the Song people are treacherous and cunning. Although trade is a fundamental deception, they want to corrupt the ambitions of our soldiers in the Great Liao Dynasty. I think they must not agree. On the contrary, His Majesty should immediately fight to attack the Southern Dynasty and defeat the Song people!"

After hearing this, Xiao Dayou snorted instead.

"Mr. Liu, do you want His Majesty to attack the Song Dynasty or vent your anger?"

This question was so heartbroken that Liu Liufu changed his color and said, "Sir, what do you mean?"

"You understand what it means!"

Xiao Dayou wanted to continue to say it, but remembered Wang Ning'an's words, what he couldn't keep was that he couldn't keep it!

"Hmph!" He shook his sleeves and returned to his room, too lazy to pay attention to Liu Liufu.

On the other side, Yelu Renxian also returned to his yard. He thought that Wang Ning'an's idea was actually very good. It would be great if the Song Dynasty could really trade fairly with the Liao Kingdom. But the problem was that he gave up the annual monies and was dull, and would the Song Dynasty set a trap for them... It would be really hard to decide!

"Sir Qibing, Mr. Xu is asking for a meeting."

"Oh? Please."

After a while, Xu Jie hurried in and asked as soon as he met: "Sir, I heard that the Song Dynasty wants to exchange trade for annual monies?"

Yelu Renxian chuckled and said, "Mr. Xu is so smart and clear-eyed? You are here, tell me, what do you think?"

Xu Jie sat down, asked for a cup of tea, and then smiled and said, "Sir, the trade in the market is troublesome and smuggling is unstable. So, in the past two years, the Cui family was destroyed, and then Zhao Song banned the trade. If there was a proper way, it would be best for both sides to trade normally, and..." Xu Jie lowered his voice, "Sir, do you have a few words, don't you know whether to say it?"

Yelu Renbiao glanced at him all, "There is nothing you can't say, it's all your own people!"

"Hey!" Xu Jie suddenly seemed mysterious and lowered his voice, "Sir, have you ever thought about it? What is the difference between annual monies and trade?"

"Tell me!"

"Sir, this annual monies are given to Your Majesty. But trade is different. If our prince can intervene, it is called getting the moon first!"

Yelu Ren's eyes lit up and thought to himself, why didn't I expect it!

The annual tribute from the Song Dynasty was given directly to the Emperor of Liao every year, and it was in the hands of Yelu Zongzhen, becoming an important source of wealth for the emperor's army to raise his skin.

What if it was changed to trade?

Cangzhou is next to Yanyun, and Yelu Chongyuan must have taken advantage of the trade deals, and he can also take the opportunity to get all the tariffs! A few million chunks a year, as long as half of them can be intercepted, Yelu Chongyuan's back will be hard.

So what if the Pishi Army is elite? So what if those grassland tribes listen to you, Yelu Zong really?

The Great Liao is no longer the Khitan decades ago. If you don’t have money, who will listen to you? If you have money, who won’t kneel down!

Yelu Chongyuan had long been determined to fight for the throne. If he could hold trade in his hands and use money to open up the way, he might not be able to bribe those tribes loyal to the royal family and overthrow the two Yelu Zong Zhenye!

As Yelu Chongyuan's beloved general, how could Yelu Renxian not think about pushing his master to the throne? Look at it this way, we must promote trade. As for the annual monies, what should we fight for the Liao lord!

...

"Hahaha, Erlang is so smart. In this way, there is no need to worry about Liao Kingdom not bowing his head." Yu Jing was filled with joy, smiling with an old face as if it was blooming.

The annual monies are a big stone that weighs on every Song people's heart. How can you be unhappy if you see that you can pry it open?

Wang Deyong was also very satisfied, and the old general kept rubbing his hands.

"Erlang, I'm still a little dissatisfied."

Wang Ning'an smiled and said, "Please speak with the old general."

"I remember when I first came, I set a standard, not giving Liao Kingdom an inch of land or a tael of silver, but once you do it according to your method, wouldn't Liao Kingdom earn more than a few million yuan a year? It's simply outrageous!"

Wang Deyong obviously felt that the Song Dynasty had won the face and lost the inner world.

"Hahaha, old general, I dare to ask for advice. Are you hungry? Should you eat copper coins or buns?"

Wang De said with a calm face: "You think I am a fool? You can't buy buns with copper? What's the difference?"

"A normal person may not be different, but it is completely different at the national level." Wang Ning'an said: "In fact, we can leave the numbers to the Liao Kingdom and truly swallow the benefits ourselves. In less than ten years, the Liao Kingdom will become an economic vassal of the Song Dynasty!"

Wang Ning'an said it was full of confidence, but Yu Jing was not so optimistic.

"Erlang, don't underestimate the people of Liao. In fact, the Song Dynasty suffered a loss in doing business over the years."

Wang Ning'an was puzzled, "I said, Mr. Wuxi, if we have such a big advantage, how can we suffer? Are the officials in charge of the market all pig's heads?"

"Ahem..." Yu Jing's old face turned red, "You can't say that, they have difficulties."

In the fourth year of Qingli, Yu Jing took an envoy to the Liao Kingdom. After almost a year of going there, the old man was very aware of the trade between the Song and Liao dynasties, but he was helpless.

Indeed, the economy of the Song Dynasty was much greater than that of the Liao Kingdom. In the transactions between the two sides, the Song Dynasty always offered one side, and the little annual monies given to the Liao Kingdom could be earned back through trade.

However, it does not mean that the Song Dynasty could overthrow the Liao Kingdom. The Liao Kingdom was also full of talented people, and they made full use of their advantages in trade to gain benefits.

For example, the Liao Dynasty took advantage of the lack of war horses in the Song Dynasty and greatly increased the price of horses. An ordinary castrated war horse could be sold for silences, and the Song Dynasty could only endure it with its nose pinched.

The Liao Kingdom also grasped the characteristics of the gentry and people of the Song Dynasty who liked delicious food and smuggled fat sheep, often as many as tens of thousands of heads.

In addition, the Liao Kingdom produced a lot of Northern Pearls, which were large and expensive, round and smooth, and were a good product for making decorations. The Northern Pearls that flowed into the Song Dynasty from the Liao Kingdom were worth hundreds of thousands of yuan every year.

In addition, there are high-quality pond salt, grain, etc.

Through these commodities, the Liao Kingdom made a lot of money from the Song Dynasty. When looking at the history of the Song Dynasty, we often see two words: money shortage!

China has always been not a rich country with precious metals. Both gold and silver were very limited and copper was not rich. The Song Dynasty was the peak of the ancient economy, with extremely abundant commodities and naturally the amount of money needed was astonishing. The Song Dynasty itself was not enough, and the Liao Dynasty took away the copper coins of the Song Dynasty through the trade and exacerbated the money shortage.

Therefore, many ministers were worried about the outflow of copper coins and causing economic crisis. This was also the reason why the scholars of the Song Dynasty restricted the scale of trade in the Song and Liao dynasties...

After listening to Yu Jing's introduction, Wang Ning'an cried.

It's so long to live!

In my previous life, I just saw that in order to promote my own currency, the Great Mildew Kingdom was willing to fight wars all over the world for the hegemony of green bills. I was willing to spend as many people died and how much money I spent. As for planting flowers, in order to allow soft sister coins to spread all over the world, I was busy with currency exchanges everywhere.

Good guy, when we arrived in the Song Dynasty, people took the initiative to use your currency, and even pushed back and forth, even restricted the scale. I just didn’t know what to say!

"Mr. Wuxi, it's such a simple thing. There are so many smart heads in the Song Dynasty that can't be solved. You can only be a turtle behind closed doors? Is it embarrassing to lose it?"

Yu Jing was also angry, "Wang Erlang, don't stand and talk without any pain in your back. Do you have a way to prevent the copper coins from flowing out?"

"Of course, how easy it is!" Wang Ning'an said: "Don't Wuxi Gong know about the Cabinet and the Gold and Silver Shop?"

"Yeah." Yu Jing nodded with a frightened face, "Isn't it just to save gold, silver and coins and charge storage fees!"

Wang Ning'an suddenly smiled, "Mr. Wuxi, what if the cabinet shop does not charge storage fees and instead gives depositors interest instead?"

Yu Jing was shocked, "Ning'an, there is so much money, but it takes up so much space. It's still so heavy. It's inconvenient to carry it. If you don't charge storage fees, wouldn't you pay?"

"Hahaha!" Wang Ning'an really didn't know what to say. Some things were just a layer of window paper. If you didn't point it out, you wouldn't expect it!

"Mr. Wuxi, don't talk about anything else, borrowing will have interest, investment will have returns, right? Holding a lot of money in your hand, as long as you are good at managing, how can you lose money? If you make 10,000 guan and give 3,000 guan to depositors, is that reasonable? The depositor depositors deposit 100,000 guan, and more than 3,000 guan a year. As the money continues to increase, will anyone deposit money on their own initiative?"

Wang De twisted his snow-white beard and squinted his eyes and said, "Isn't this letting money make a baby?"

"I'm right, just luring it for profit. I don't believe that the nobles of the Liao Kingdom would not save money."

"Then, what good will it be for the Song Dynasty if they make more money?" Yu Jing had not turned around yet.
