Wang Ning'an dared to trade fairly with the Liao Kingdom with confidence, and he was not a joke.

That's right, it's fair and reasonable, and there are no flaws from the inside out, because he doesn't plan to play tricks on trade at all. He has better means to wait!

The real and most clever scam is finance, which is a good way to squeeze your money out of shape, colorlessness, tastelessness and soundlessness.

To make an image metaphor, it is like Duan Yu in the Tianlong, who looks weak, stupid and cute, stupid and cute. Whoever gets together with him may turn into a bubble of martial arts practice for the rest of his life and is completely sucked away.

Wang Ning'an despised the Song Dynasty's approach to restricting trade. What was the most powerful weapon of the Song Dynasty? It was not a bed crossbow, a skeleton armor, or a Wang family army, or a Zhe family army, or a large number of fool scholars who only understand the ways of Confucius and Mencius.

It is a huge population and a supermarket!

The Liao Kingdom sold some beef and mutton, and the Song Dynasty was worried and panicked. It was really ridiculous.

If it were Wang Ning'an, he wanted to buy more cattle and sheep from the Liao Kingdom. He would buy as much as possible. It would be better for the Liao Kingdom to raise sheep crazily, and sheep everywhere. That would be better!

Yu Jing and Wang Deyong didn't understand the meaning, "Erlang, if you buy more sheep from the Liao Kingdom, the Song Dynasty's sheep will not be sold, and it will hurt the people!"

"Duke Wuxi, is this your old view or the view of the current dynasty?"

"Of course it's what the court officials mean, but I think it's not wrong."

"How could it be right? It's a big mistake!" Wang Ning'an said heartbrokenly: "Mr. Wuxi, if you are asked to choose, should you hope that the Liao Kingdom will raise sheep, or the Liao Kingdom will raise horses in the whole country?"

It’s another multiple-choice question, what’s the difficulty!

"Raising horses can fight, of course it's better to raise sheep."

"That's right. It may not be possible to let the Liao Kingdom give up war horses. However, the Song Dynasty opened the market and allowed them to raise more sheep and occupy more pastures, so that the herdsmen were accustomed to living by trading instead of robbing and killing. It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality! Once the barbarians get used to a comfortable life, the speed of their fall is unimaginable! Within decades, a tough nomadic people may disappear! In contrast, what's the loss of our sheep-raising people? What's more, we can support these people to engage in other industries, textiles, furniture, clothing, and handicrafts... The Song Dynasty needs industrial upgrading and needs to move upwards, rather than sticking to the incompleteness and being self-satisfied!"

As the heights grew higher and higher, they all rose to the national strategy, Yu Jing couldn't help but become serious. After all, the old man had been an official for decades, so he was not a waste of time.

"Erlang, even if what you said makes sense, you can't see it, but if you can see it, the Liao Kingdom cannot see it? The scale of trade has been small in recent years. In addition to our concerns, the Liao Kingdom has more strict defenses. Only someone dares to sell horses privately, regardless of whether the horses are going to be killed, or even to be in relatives and neighbors. If the Liao Kingdom finds something wrong, they will definitely prohibit it strictly."

"They can't help it!"

"Why?"

“Because of the tariffs!”

Yu Jing was puzzled, and Wang Ning'an smiled, "Duke Wuxi, in the past, our four major markets, all merchants from the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty who participated in trade had to pay taxes on the markets, and the same was true for the new city of Liao Kingdom. Is this right?"

"Well, that's true."

"Hahaha, Wuxi Duke, what if the original tax was changed, the goods imported from the Liao Kingdom from the Song Dynasty were imposed by the Great Song Dynasty, and the goods imported from the Great Song Dynasty were imposed by the Liao Kingdom were imposed by the Liao Kingdom, what would happen?"

The original market was a market. Whether it was a businessman from Song and Liao dynasties, he would pay taxes together when he came to do business, and there was no difference.

But according to Wang Ning'an's method, the tax deduction was turned into tariffs.

Products exported to the other party shall be taxed by the other party. In the country, except for some strategic materials, some must be strictly prohibited and some must be appropriately taxed, other products are not taxed.

In this way, the more goods the Liao Kingdom imported from the Song Dynasty, the more taxes it would be. Driven by profit, how could the Liao Kingdom resist the economic offensive of the Song Dynasty?

Someone wants to ask, will the Liao Kingdom have no long-term and high-level figures block the evil hands of the Song Dynasty?

Maybe there is, or maybe there is no, but no matter whether there is or not, they can't stop it! The reason is very simple, because Yelu Chongyuan and Liaozhu Yelu Zongzhen and his father and son compete for the throne, both sides urgently need money. At this time, the tariffs are clear. Can the pacifiers placed in front of them not drink?

Even if they are willing to consider the long-term view of the Liao Dynasty, they will not believe in dealing with each other! They are suspicious of each other and cruel internal struggles, but the result is that they have to swallow it first even if they know there is a problem.

This thing is a bit like a warlord fight and foreigners benefit. The current situation of the Liao Kingdom determines that they have no ability to resist and can only accept...

Wang Deyong and Yu Jing carefully deduced it several times, but there were no loopholes. Wang Ning'an's move was simply a poison-tempered dagger, both tricky and ruthless. The most wonderful thing was that it was wrapped in a layer of beautiful coat. The Liao Kingdom could not continue, and it would be impossible.

When they were on the negotiating table again, the two envoys of the Liao Kingdom were still very aggressive, but in their spare time, they asked more and more about trade, and they all fell into the eyes of money.

Things have come to this point, the time has come.

Wang Ning'an finally put forward the final plan, and the two sides adopted the eight-character policy of "using taxes to change the year, equality and mutual benefit".

The Liao Kingdom voluntarily gave up the annual tribute. The Song Dynasty established a new quota field north of Cangzhou and south of Baigou River. The new quota field was sent by both sides to form two taxation systems, and imposed tariffs on the other party's goods.

In order to facilitate transaction liquidation, Song and Liao jointly invested to establish a trading bank. All gold flow of more than 100 coins must be transferred through the trading bank.

Trade money banks must regularly announce financial transactions to the two countries and accept supervision from the two countries.

According to Wang Ning'an's estimate, the trade volume between the two sides could reach 20 million to 30 million in the first year, and the Liao Kingdom had about 2 million yuan. Compared with the annual monies of Song and Liao, it was as much as four times!

And this is only the first year. According to estimates, in the next five years, we will reach a level every year and will eventually reach an astonishing 100 million yuan!

In other words, the tariff is over 10 million!

Faced with astronomical figures, Yelu Renxian and Xiao Dayou were not calm. They completely lost insomnia. When they tossed and turned, Yelu Renxian put on his clothes and then wrote a secret report to Yelu Chongyuan, suggesting that the prince must promote peace talks. As long as it succeeds, there will be a steady stream of income that can support Yelu Chongyuan's great cause. Even if there is some risk in trade with the Song Dynasty, he can wait until he seizes the throne and stop.

He was busy writing secret newspapers, and Xiao Dayou was not idle either. The benefits of trade were obvious, but he was too tightly tied to the Song Dynasty, which made the Liao Kingdom lose its courage and indulge in the rich and noble land, and soften his fighting spirit. No matter what, there are pros and cons. I also asked the Crown Prince to consider it and submit it to His Majesty for the imperial examination...

The two envoys from the Liao Kingdom were moved and asked for instructions from each other. Wang Deyong was no exception. He wrote the negotiations in detail into a postscript. In addition, Wang Ning'an wrote a copy of the Zhazi of the trading bank and handed it to Zhao Zhen alone.

These two items were delivered to the capital, and immediately caused a huge wave.

What?

The annual monies are gone!

God, the Song Dynasty finally doesn’t have to be embarrassed anymore... A lot of young officials who received the news, and scholars who went to Beijing to study, were crying when they heard it, and ran around excitedly, calling friends everywhere, gathering together to drink, talking loudly, and praising General Wang for his very good methods!

"It turns out that he is a general who leads troops, but he is brave. In contrast, Wang Gongchen really disappointed the government and the country!"

"Yes, General Wang has made great contributions. Even a title of prince is not enough to reward me!"

...

Just by listening to the teahouse, you will know how heavy the word "Year-money" is. After decades of resentment, I have been holding it back for several generations, and finally I have hope of venting my anger, a great humiliation, and a snowfall! It feels like I have been constipated for half a month, and suddenly it is smooth. From the inside to the outside, from the top to the bottom, there is only one word: it’s great!

Bianjing City was in a state of jubilation, which was even more lively than the New Year.

Wen Yanbo, a Grand Secretary of Zhaowenguan, was stunned when he received Wang Deyong's memorial. He then cursed, scolding Liao Kingdom, Wang Gongchen, and Wang Deyong. In short, he scolded everyone who could scold him!

Isn’t your Liao Kingdom strong? Isn’t it forcing you to increase your annual monies?

Why didn’t it increase at all, but it was exempted, and can you agree?

And Wang Gongchen, you are a pig's brain, no, pigs are better than you!

If the Liao Kingdom can agree to this condition, it means that the Liao Kingdom is very weak and is simply a bluff. You can't be a little harder. As long as you argue with reason and earn a little back, you won't be able to send Wang De to it.

Damn Wang Deyong, old man, you are seventy years old, how dare you go against me?

Do you want to tell the world that civil officials are not capable of it, and they all depend on your martial artists?

...

Mr. Wen cursed a lot and sat on the chair angrily. He really didn't want to give this lottery to Wang De. He repeatedly studied this memorial to find the flaws... But Wen Yanbo also knew that there was little hope. The annual monies were Mount Tai that was pressed on the Song Dynasty. As long as the annual monies could be solved, even if it was paid, the emperor would nod.

Now, the housekeeper ran in and told Wen Yanbo, "Prince, Your Majesty sent someone to issue an order, and ask the Prime Minister to come to the palace to discuss the important matters!"
