The civil and military officials were talking a lot, and Zhao Kuangyin was also looking at him interestingly, while Zhao Guangyi looked like a cold face, looking at Sun Chunming's eyes as if it were a knife.

In fact, most quarrels in court are not right or wrong, because there are few things in court that are absolutely wrong, and there is no absolute good. The good or bad thing is more about how you understand it.

Every quarrel is just a collision between different identities. At this level, everyone represents not themselves, but the entire interest group behind them.

For example, Han Chongyun, even if he couldn't say anything, he had to stand up in this matter, because he was the palace commander and behind him were the soldiers of the entire imperial guards. Even if this matter was essentially a bad thing for the Song Dynasty, he would agree.

Zhao Guangyi is a civil servant leader, and his position is actually irrelevant to right or wrong. He must oppose such things, because cement can create political achievements no matter how it is used. In the words of later generations, it is a GDP artifact. Whether it is to benefit the people or cultivate confidants, it is a killer weapon.

And now if it is replaced by horses, it has nothing to do with their entire civil servant system, at least it has nothing to do with the civil servants on his side, because horses are used for wars, and it is the military affairs of the Privy Council for making military achievements.

In contrast, if martial arts are heavy, literature is light. Although the saints say that one can relax the way of civil and military affairs, and Yin and Yang Tai Chi embrace the Yuan and return to the unity, it is actually just a great truth. The most useless thing in the world is the great truth. Chinese history has never had the so-called balance between civil and military affairs since the riots of the Chinese people with clear writings to the third thousand years of the Song Dynasty.

If the martial arts are heavy, the literary style is light. This is the most simple truth. The emperor is the one who plays cheating and adjusts the weights in the middle.

Regardless of what this matter is for the Song Dynasty, for civil servants, Zhao Guangyi, it is absolutely harmful and unprofitable. On the contrary, it is an opportunity to seize power for Zhao Pu. After this matter is completed, it will also increase his personal prestige.

Does Sun Chunming understand these principles? He understands! He definitely understands it. It is precisely because he understands that when he slapped him in the face so decisively, Zhao Guangyi's eyes almost burst into flames.

Who promoted you from a small ramen restaurant shopkeeper to the richest man in the Song Dynasty today and Quan Zhikai Prefecture? If this was in the Han Dynasty, I would be your official position. Do you know that your words constituted a crime of disloyalty?

In response to this, Sun Chunming had no choice but to sigh in his heart, but he was still extremely determined on his face. Zhao Guangyi stood up and said angrily: "You said there is no difficulty in doing it? Do you think this is a good strategy? Then I ask you, how do you use cement transport from Luoyang to Qinzhou, how do you hire labor, how much cost can you get back, and how can you ensure that merchants are willing to sell horses to the court?"

Sun Chunming answered one by one: "In fact, there is no need to be so troublesome. This thing is inexhaustible. Now it is just that the output is small, and the court doesn't care about it. This thing, Luoyang's caves are not large. In contrast, the Sichuan and Shu areas are everywhere, and even in Guanzhong, the lime reserves are much larger than those in the Central Plains. If they are developed, not to mention transporting from here to there, it may be more cost-effective to transport from there."

He looked at Zhao Guangyi and found that he had already gritted his teeth. Sun Chunming had to pretend not to see it and continued: "Secondly, merchants are pursuing profits, but a good horse in the northwest is worth 20 yuan. It is impossible for the court to take back the original price from the merchant. In fact, war horses are indeed not the most profitable material, but it is very easy for the court to control these.

I would like to suggest that the court can use war horses instead of taxes to achieve the purpose of controlling merchants. For example, if the caravan sets off and comes back, every time the goods from a camel unit are brought back, they will be handed over to the court for two war horses as taxes. As for what the camels brought on, the court ignores it. Is there any profit in this way? It is absolutely, and it is very thick. I think all merchants in the world should be willing to accept it."

"Along with the work, the craftsmen are made by the family of Zhongwu Army. Can the court completely subsidize some money? In fact, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We can use this to cast several completely complete Han cities, and the court sent officials to serve as county magistrates and prefects to develop a large number of Hu and Han hushangs. Perhaps it will take decades to determine the Nan army, so it will naturally become the current Zhongwu Army, and the Tianxiong Army also said it will be certain."

"To sum up, I think this great plan will be of great benefit to the court without any harm. Please do not hesitate if you ask the officials."

For a moment, the whole court was silent. Everyone thought that Sun Chunming might not listen to Zhao Guangyi so much in this strategy. After all, this was his son's memorial, and the businessman's affairs were indeed the most central thing in this matter.

But it was really something that no one expected that Sun Chunming directly slapped Zhao Guangyi in the face in such a straightforward and decisive way. Even at this time, he pretended to be confused, pretended to be stupid, and let the officials make a decision, he had an explanation to Zhao Guangyi.

You should know that although there is no longer any system of recommendation and the world, and there is no such thing as an official, no matter what, Zhao Guangyi is also Sun Chunming's benefactor. This kind of support is even a great kindness in saving lives! Changing the family for no reason is the most taboo in the officialdom.

What is this now? What is it?

Everyone had to sigh, "I'm sorry, my parents in the world."

Sun Chunming was also helpless. He had a tacit understanding with Sun Yue. If it were just because of his different political views from Sun Yue, he would not give face at all. Instead, he would criticize his son for his death. Even Sun Yue was speechless because of the word "filial piety".

But this is the Northwest Dangxiang! This is not a small-scale dispute between civil and military affairs, nor is it a matter of 300,000 horses, but a real dispute over the country's power and destiny of the Song Dynasty for a hundred years!

What are the war horses and the Hexi Corridor, they are all pretexts. Sun Yue’s real purpose is to let Dangxiang cast the city to destroy them. You must know that Li Jiqian has been born. In the entire Song Dynasty, only he and Sun Yue know what the chaos in Dangxiang is. At this time, how can you tell him to say no to such a good strategy against his conscience?

Sun Chunming may have a loss in his minority, even if Zhao Guangyi wants him to frame him for his loyalty and kindness in the future, he can do this. However, he cannot sacrifice his life and the great troubles of life and death.
