Shangjing, Huining Prefecture of the former Jin Kingdom.

As one of the five capitals of the Great Jin Kingdom, the prosperity of Shangjing has completely disappeared in the dust of history. Its scale and its size can only be seen from the fine brushwork of later generations.

However, its decline has only begun for a few years, so most of its city size is still well preserved, but Dingkou has dropped significantly.

It was precisely because of this that the Dazhen Kingdom, which had abandoned this city, felt that the threat from Mongolia was weakened, so it occupied the city again.

Now, this place has become an important military stronghold for the Dazhen Kingdom in the north.

Wanyan Luoshu was the governor of Shangjing City appointed by the Dazhen Kingdom. Because the Dazhen Kingdom was in a state of unstoppable power, Shangjing City was completely settled in the turmoil. In addition, the people who fled to the countryside also returned to the city, and Shangjing City has now returned to the scale of 5,000 households.

Although it is still far from the heyday, being able to gather so many people in such a short time also reflects his ability.

On this day, the governor's mansion.

Wanyan Luoshu had just sent away the greedy Kuoqie Meng'an, and his face immediately collapsed.

"Governor, this servant is really greedy. Since he entered the capital, our good days will come to an end!", the staff member Ou Muxing said in a complaining to Wanyan Luoshu.

He followed Wanyan Luoshu and was considered an old man in the capital. In the past, when the prestige of the Jin Kingdom was still there, they were ordinary officials in the city. Later, when the Mongolians came, the original city lord abandoned his official position and fled. However, he ran slowly, but instead became a blessing in disguise and was directly promoted to the city lord by the Mongolians.

Although Daruwachi sent at that time was a little greedy, compared with the current Dazhen Kingdom, it is really considered "clean".

"Hey! Stop saying these despicable words. That servant Sankuoqi was sent by the king. If he forced him, he could only endure it." Wanyan Luoshu was also very frustrated with servant Sankuoqi, but the other party's background was completely unreliable, which was not the one who had defected to the Mongols. Now he was given a reliable official position.

If the old master, the Great Jin Kingdom, would he have changed his sect three times.

Naturally, there is nothing good about this reputation as an official.

"Governor, now there is a way, we may not have to endure it anymore!" Seeing the staff member's desire to speak but stop, Wanyan Luoshu immediately guessed something.

He immediately said, "Why, whose benefits have you taken?"

"The governor was joking! Isn't this benefit only to accept it if you agree?!" Ou Muxing replied with a smile, and then said, "It's the north! They want us--". Some things are hard to say too straightforward. Ou Muxing pointed to the land under his feet.

"Are they going south?" Wanyan Luoshu was a little surprised.

As far as he knew, the Mongolian mission had not left for long. And when he left, it was said that he had a good conversation with the Minister of the Dazhen Kingdom. The rumors also came out that the two countries had established a military alliance.

What's more, the main force of Mongolia is not on the grassland now. The Ulutus tribe, which had just completed the unification of Eastern Mongolia, is said to have personally gone to the west with generous gifts to "appoint guilt".

Why is it suddenly going south to the north?

Because this involves military secrets, Ou Muxing didn't know much. He just thought a little and said, "If the governor is interested, the younger one can bring that person. If the governor has any questions, please ask him."

Wanyan Luoshu thought about it and decided to meet him.

Because judging from the rise of the Ulutus tribe, the princes of this tribe are by no means ordinary people. I heard that when the other party started his business, there were only a hundred households in the Ministry of Households. It took only tens of thousands of households at once.

Moreover, the unification of the Eastern Mongolian grasslands is also full of strangeness!

Not much, how could the Ulutus tribe defeat Beligutai and Ochjin, two veterans who started their business with Genghis Khan.

Now someone from the north has suddenly sent to contact me, and I can't really do it.

Wanyan Luoshu is a smart person and a person who cherishes his life. He can surrender to the three masters one after another, and he is not afraid of another master. If it is really unstoppable, he will definitely take the lead in kneeling down.

This is the ultimate truth of life that he can live until now and realize.

And Ou Muxing, who received the order, immediately went down to make arrangements.

The person contacted him was a Han merchant named Kong Rong, who was trading in pens, ink, paper and inkstones. There was also rumors that it was from the Song Dynasty and there was a handwritten copy of the "Four Books and Five Classics" descendants of the Kong family. Ou Muxing was a little unbelievable!

He knew that the font of the "Four Books and Five Classics" published by the Song Dynasty was by no means simplified, and was surprisingly consistent with the simplified Chinese characters in Eastern Mongolia. The paper was flat and had a certain hardness, so it was not so easy to break when flipping through it.

He bought this kind of paper from a Hui merchant. The other party also told him that the source of the goods came from the Ulutus tribe in Eastern Mongolia.

So Kong Rong's Han businessman was simply a profiteer who sold dog meat with the help of sheep.

But how many people buy it!

It is also this Kong Rong who manages well!

After coming to the capital, he gave a wave of generous gifts to the powerful people in the city under the name of giving books. This caused a trend of follow-up and prompted the merchants to sell their goods!

You know, the martial arts style in the capital was strong and the literary style was weak. Especially after the war, decent private schools were rarely seen.

Now that this group of martial arts madmen actually bought books, I can only praise the principle of management.

Kong Rong, who was being praised by Ou Muxing, felt distressed as if he was feeling something.

Although the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are indeed selling well, the "gifts" he gave before are also very heavy. He can't stand the losses if he manages his own small business.

But he was confused and pulled into the secret guard and became one of the informants inside. This time he entered Shangjing City to give gifts and sell goods in a high-profile task, which was the secret guard clearly designated. Although he was helpless, he had to do so.

After all, compared to the head, no matter how much money you have, it is useless.

"Is the shopkeeper still feeling sorry for the money?" Seeing Kong Rong looking at the account book, he joked.

"That's not! Alas!" Kong Rong knew that the guy in front of him was not an ordinary guy, but a real secret guard. Moreover, he could also see from the momentum he showed slightly, and his status among the secret guards was quite high.

So he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to sigh and express his distress.

"Haha! Doing things for the secret guards will not make you lose money." The ordinary-looking guy said, "As long as you do this job, you will have more opportunities to make money."

Kong Rong also knew the ability of the secret guard, but he was a person who cherished money. Even if he knew it in his heart, he couldn't bear the pain.

At this moment, someone came to report that Ou Muxing was coming.

"I'll stay behind for a while, you can treat it well!" The guy said, then turned behind the screen.
Chapter completed!
