"This calligraphy, tsk..." In the study, Tadaohei Fujiwara looked intoxicated with a calligraphy work.

"How long has it been?" At this time, I remembered the knock on the door. After a maid got permission, she brought a bowl of tea and rice in.

Because Japan believed in Buddhism, all nobles only vegetarian food, and even the emperor issued a decree that they did not allow meat, so noble people were vegetarian, and those lowly people ate meat, and tea and rice became a delicacy for the nobles.

"Two hours have passed!"

"It turns out that he is a great man of the Tang Kingdom. He is like flowing water, and people are addicted to it without realizing it!" Teng Yuan Zhongping couldn't help but sigh when he looked at this work that was rumored to be Ouyang Xun.

This room is separated from the lobby outside by a wooden skeleton paper-framed wall.

It was quiet inside, but there was a busy scene outside. Some were writing at their desks, some were talking, and some clerks quickly shuttled between the documents to deliver documents.

As an important minister of Japan's regent, Guan Bai naturally would not handle government affairs personally. His daily life was just a romantic and intrigue.

There are not a hundred officials in the office, and at least eighty. The noisy sounds and busy scenes are like the heart of a big machine beating, and it can't stop automatically. Everyone has their own responsibilities.

"What's wrong?" At this time, a small official suddenly broke into the sky, sweating profusely. The majesty of the Taizheng Minister made his waist unconsciously bend and kneel on the ground.

"This is the profit of our family in the past six months, please check it out!" He didn't even dare to look up at Tadaohei Fujiwara. He had a low status, but his family might have been destroyed because of his words. The limitation of his identity made him only serve as an official, and the Fujiwara family was everywhere and underground, and he was envious of the leisurely life of the ministers.

"What's going on? The court's income has already allowed His Majesty the Emperor to repair the palace. Why is my family unable to make ends meet and even lost hundreds of stale money!"

Tadaohei Fujiwara was shocked. The recent transactions with Tang State have made Japan lively. Just collecting taxes allowed the emperor to repair the palace. Unexpectedly, the family would lose money.

"Yes, our family consumes 700 stones of grain every month, but currently only 500 stones of grain cannot support the autumn harvest! Even if the manors are transported here, it will take time!"

The minor official was hired by Tadaehiro Fujiwara. Although he handled state affairs, he did not belong to the court. His daily salary was paid by Tadaehiro Fujiwara, so it is naturally an obligation to handle family affairs.

"It's so!" He looked at the account book and felt a little embarrassed. The biggest expense was that the copybook of Ouyang Xun he purchased was spent hundreds of cents of money and was emptied in an instant.

"In these days, send more people to dig sulfur, which should make up for it. It is still OK to support the autumn harvest!"

Tadaohei Fujiwara was very calm in front of the subordinates and said without changing his expression: "There should be many ancestors' weapons in the treasury. They have not been used for many years, so I will sell them all. It is not done by our ministers and other ministers!"

"Hi!" After receiving the reply, the little official went out immediately and no longer disturbed the Taizheng Minister to appreciate the copybook.

"The more trade with the Tang State, the more expenditure the family will be?" The little official shook his head and thought helplessly.

Jiuzhou, Jinshan City.

The convenient location allowed Jinshan City to occupy the right time and place, becoming a trading center with Japan, and its population exceeded 50,000, which was much more prosperous than Heianjing.

This year, a fire broke out in the palace of Heian Kyo, causing heavy losses to the royal family. Even though Emperor Murakami had been in power for many years, he had not improved the situation of the royal family's financial difficulties. He had no choice but to send people to participate in the Tang people's trade and make profits to repair the palace.

As a result, it triggered the trade in Kansan Castle, and even the Emperor was doing business, let alone those nobles. Kanbaya and Taizheng Minister Tadaehiro Fujiwara also asked his family to come.

The big heads exported by Japan are naturally exotic things such as copper materials, too many knives, paper fans, screens, etc., while too many imported ones include silk, spices, books, tea, porcelain, etc., and even copper coins. Basically, more imports are imported but less exported.

That's right, Japan, which has not yet mastered the technology of forging copper coins, can only export copper materials and import copper coins. After all, their domestic Kaiyuan Tongbao is not enough.

But in recent years, sulfur has become a hot product exported by Japan. There are many volcanoes in Japan and countless sulfur. You can get silver and money by digging some of them. It is simply not too profitable to get things from the Tang Kingdom (the common name for Japan to China).

Even if a stone is only 100 yuan, it is a big profit when the cost is equal to nothing. As for the life of a pariah, how much is it worth?

"Guest, please, please, don't know what you need?"

A few customers walked into a bookstore in Jinshan City, wearing Tang robes. If it weren't for the height difference, he would have been a little confused for a while.

"Is there any Sun Tzu's Art of War?" The guest smiled slightly, took out a silver ingot from his hand, and swung it up and down, making the boss's heart excited for a moment.

"This is a banned book, there are not many books in the entire Jinshan City!" The shopkeeper was shocked. He had never seen such a bold Japanese man, and his face turned pale.

"Come in and talk!" He pulled the Japanese and came to the side room and said, "These books are only available in the family of the ministers and cannot be seen on weekdays. Even in the Tang Dynasty, there are very few. If you want to buy them, you can get the price!"

"Of course, I know naturally!" The distinguished guest clapped his hands, and the servant next to him took out a piece of gold from his pocket, weighing about one pound, which was very heavy.

"Yes!" After swallowing, the store quickly took out a dilapidated book, but the cover was the Book of Songs. When he opened it, he found that it was the content of Sun Tzu's Art of War.

"Thank you!" The guest bowed and left with joy.

The shopkeeper held the gold mine. He was just a businessman, so he could not control the military books.

With the arrival of the Tang Dynasty's passion again, Japan's desire for Tang Dynasty culture became increasingly hot, and the copper material was exported.

"Wuliang Tianzun, our Dai Sect finally set his feet in Jinshan City!"

In a corner of Jinshan City, a Taoist temple was erected at some point, and more than a dozen Taoist priests were filled with joy. This means that the Dai Sect began to go out of the country and carry forward it again in a foreign land.

"Amitabha, really congratulations!" At this time, a group of monks walked over, bare-headed and wearing cassocks, and hundreds of people were following behind them, with great power.

"I didn't expect that I could see Brother Dao in Jinshan City. It's so gratifying!" A monk in the lead said with a gloomy face.

"Hmph, damn bald donkey, it's really abominable to have you followed Jinshan City!" said the Taoist angrily.
