Chapter 94 Millions of money, just turn around

"Exactly: a few lines of edicts have turned into false hopes, and a piece of alliance paper has caused disaster. It is unknown how Xian Emperor's life will be, and let's listen to the explanation below."

On the stage that had just been temporarily built in Gaosheng Restaurant, the storyteller slapped the wooden wall fiercely, looking very much like those dogs in later generations. He first whetted the appetite of the tea guests in the audience, and then continued: "Say After finishing the past, let’s talk about the present. Do you know what Xixia is?

But he said that Dang Xiangnu was not a kind person in the first place. Even though the emperor of the Tang Dynasty bestowed the surname Li, and the official family of the Song Dynasty also granted him the surname Zhao, the slave Dangxiang did not want to repay the favor, but instead caused endless troubles until Li Yuanhao claimed to be the emperor. , and changed the surname of Li and Zhao to Wei, and from then on he became a Huawai barbarian.

If that's all, then that's fine. It's just unimaginable. Since Li Yuanhao, Xixia has all been a wolf-hearted person. They haven't learned a third of their human nature, but they have retained a seventh of their bestiality. From Li Liangzuo to today's Li Qianshun, They actually used troops against me, the Song Dynasty, in an attempt to steal the Central Plains!

Let’s not talk about the distant ones, let’s talk about the nearby Li Qianshun. This thief took advantage of the current official campaign to send troops to the East and captured Zhenwei City. I would like to teach you how ferocious the Xixia soldiers were?”

Picking up the tea on the table and taking a sip, the storyteller unfolded the folding fan and shook it, sighing: "Zhenwei City originally had a population of twenty to thirty thousand, so it can be considered a prosperous population.

But after the Xixia soldiers retreated, the entire Zhenwei City was in ruins, and not even a living person was left! What a tragedy, the unborn woman was taken out by caesarean section, and the baby who was under three dynasties was pierced through the Above swords and guns, even if it is Shura Hell, how can it compare to the tragedy of Zhenwei City?"

"Kill all the Xixia dogs!"

Suddenly someone shouted from the audience, which attracted all the tea guests to join in. The storyteller on the stage also nodded, cupped his hands in the direction of the imperial city and said: "Do you know who the officials are today? That's The real dragon from the sky descended to earth, Ziwei Xingjun reincarnated, trapped the enemy camp like a tiger into a flock of sheep, killed the golden soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables, the tens of thousands of people in Beijing did not know how many buildings were built, such an immortal emperor, and How can we allow that party slave to provoke Tianwei?"

Shaking the folding fan with a smile, the storyteller continued: "Coincidentally, Lao Qiao has a distant relative who works as an errand in the Imperial City Department, so he got the news that the officials were planning to personally conquer Xixia to replace him. Revenge for the people of the Song Dynasty who died unjustly in Zhenwei City!"

"That's how it should be! Kill all the Xixia dogs!"

"The slave of the party is not a son of man and deserves to be killed!"

The tea drinkers under the stands became excited——

What is the temperament of today's official family? Just look at the Jingguan outside Bianjing City and you will know!

Now that the officials plan to personally conquer Xixia, they must be rushing to destroy Xixia directly without even thinking about it. They will not even give those party slaves the chance to become vassals!

"Hey~~~"

The storyteller sighed inexplicably, took a sip of tea, shook his folding fan, and sighed: "What a pity, what a pity. I heard that the officials originally planned to destroy Xixia in one battle, so that I could There was no longer a shortage of horses in the Song Dynasty, and there was no disaster of wars in the Western Frontier. It was just an official family, hey."

"What happened to the official family?"

The spectators in the audience suddenly became anxious. Although they knew that the storyteller was deliberately trying to titillate people, they also wanted to know what was going on with the officials, so they kept urging: "Hurry up! That's good. I have a reward for you, so don’t try to titillate people’s appetites!”

"The official family is poor!"

The storyteller said slowly: "First we conquered Taiyuan, then we conquered Jinfu in the north, and we conquered Datong in the west. After the repeated military campaigns, the meritorious soldiers must be rewarded, and the soldiers who died in battle must be compensated. How can there be any money in the treasury to support it?"

Officials personally conquer Xixia?

I heard from my distant relative that just because of this matter, the official family and Mr. Li Gang and Mr. Li Xianggong have been quarreling in the court several times, and I don’t know if it will finally work out."

The man in the audience slammed the table and shouted: "I wonder what's going on! It turns out that the official family is short of money! But by chance, a certain family has some extra money, and is willing to donate tens of thousands of dollars to help with salaries! Let's go

Come as soon as you go, and I will send money to Kaifeng Mansion!"

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing that this guy jumped out of nowhere and didn't follow the script at all, and even disrupted the original arrangement, the storyteller could only change his mind on the spot and said: "Even if you donated tens of thousands of dollars, it won't matter if you go on an expedition with a large army."

Is ten thousand guan and one hundred thousand guan enough?

What's more, I once heard from my distant relative that some ministers in the court once proposed to expand the borrowing of gold and silver in Bianjing City, but the officials felt that it was difficult for ordinary people like me to make a living, so they did not agree.

However, the officials also came up with a way because of this - if someone is willing to pay for the war, the officials will give him a voucher, and after the Xixia is destroyed, they will use the proceeds from the seizure plus some interest money.

Returning it to him is really not possible, but there are still good war horses that can be used as a substitute.

The old man also heard that the official family had made a bet with the officials in the court because of this method. It was said that if the official family could raise millions of money using this method, the officials in the court would meet again.

They talk nonsense about internal cultivation of benevolence and virtue to win over the foreigners, and instead support the officials' personal expedition to Xixia. If the officials cannot raise a million dollars, then don't even think about whether to conquer Xixia in person in the future, just be honest.

It’s really best to stay in the court and listen to the government.”

The man just now suddenly slapped the table again and shouted: "What nonsense is it to cultivate benevolence within the body! Benevolence did not make the Jin soldiers retreat, but the officials built several Beijing temples. Look, the Jin soldiers still dare to go south.

? Damn it, I bought him 10,000 guan first, then went to the brothers in the club to buy it together, a million guan means nothing!"

After finishing speaking, the man glanced at the tea guests again and said: "A certain family not only donated money, but also donated people! Now go and sign up for the army! When I return from being ennobled soon, I will come to Gaosheng Tea House to talk to you!"

"



On the second floor of Gaosheng Restaurant, Zhao Huan glanced at Li Gang and Li Ruobing with a smile and asked: "Is it difficult to have a million dollars? Is it difficult to have a million troops?"

Li Ruobing didn't want to speak, but Li Gang gave a wry smile and said: "When did I have a quarrel with the officials in the court? This storyteller heard some unfounded news somewhere, so he added it to the story. It's really

hateful!"

hateful?

Zhao Huan looked at the people downstairs who were surrounding the storyteller, asking repeatedly when they would be able to spend money on military expenses, but he did not feel that the storyteller was hateful at all.

At the very least, this effect has already been achieved without even using the Chinese tactics. I wonder how much easier it will be to issue war bonds next time?
