For Suning, the biggest goal is to let a large number of private merchants confirm it, join the caravan of the expedition to the Western Turks, successfully take root in the Western Turks, and set a good example for the merchants of the Tang Dynasty, that is, to rage abroad, you can rage abroad, no matter how you rage abroad, you can use any means, and the government should also encourage it, but you should pay attention to it in China, that will be beheaded, so instead of beheading in China, it is better to go abroad to make a lot of money. The money is all the money of the barbarians, and it will be useless to make no money if you don’t make money!

Suning specially arranged some people with ulterior motives to wander around the two commercial centers of East and West City all day long, then found a store that looked good to go and check it out, buy some things, and then discussed some questions about the imperial collection order with the owner of the store. Then he expressed the meaning of these words in his own language. Most of these people are officials of the Zongheng Department. Suning assigned them the task of each person to persuade at least one shop to join the Western Turkic caravan in the expedition, just treat it as an assessment that has been learned for so long, and use your Zongheng skills to convince them. Only after success can you step into the threshold of the Zongheng family!

You all need to know that a thousand years ago, our ancestors were all kings, princes and nobles. Those people could convince them, and they were able to play the world with the strategy of unity and unity. How heroic was that? And now your opponent is just a group of merchants. What are you afraid of? If you can’t convince even a group of merchants, how can you convince the kings and nobles? In the future, you will deal with senior officials in various countries. Now you can’t convince even a generation of merchants, and you are still embarrassed to call yourself a straitor? Don’t embarrass our ancestors, okay?!

How do you teach you usually? To what you like. What does it mean to consider what you like? It means to discuss with them what they are most concerned about! Merchants value profit, so you can induce it with profit! With huge profits, this is the nature of merchants and the nature of all people in the world. Your first step is to start with merchants!

At Suning's order, more than 100 apprentices from the Zongheng family embarked on the road to persuade merchants to be deceived... Ah! Persuading merchants to join the Western Turkic caravan, well, this is the right time, the times are changing. Zongheng family also needs to change. The previous goal was to rule the kings and princes and nobles of various countries. Now the goal is to face all walks of life. Zongheng family should lower their attitude, take the initiative to develop in all sectors of society, and make their mark, so that they can have the possibility of revival. Especially in this era where the world is basically controlled by Confucianism, it is not easy to gain a glimmer of vitality!

The apprentices of Zongheng were moved to tears, and said that if they did not succeed, they would definitely not come back to see Suning. Suning encouraged them excitedly. He said that they would hold a banquet here and wait for their victory to return. After all the young people who were excited and swore to become the ancestors of Zongheng's family left, Suning was excited to take out a hot pot set and have a delicious meal. To be honest, Suning actually didn't have any expectations for these novice players.

Because this matter is venture capital. It is easy to make money, but it is actually very complicated to operate. First of all, the problem of language barriers is very fatal. You can use translations, but how to buy and sell? How to set prices? If these problems are not solved, they can only harm these private businessmen and damage the prestige and credibility that the government has finally established.

The best result is that more than 20 wealthy and noble caravans go first, and after opening up the situation, they gradually introduce private businessmen. However, in this way, they lose the earliest business opportunities. However, this is the price that needs to be paid to avoid big risks. We bear the risks and open up a way out for you. You have to pay the price. It’s that simple. If some very courageous businessmen are willing to take risks together, Suning will not use political power to oppress him, but will support him and set a model.

I just don’t know if there are such powerful folk merchants who have such courage? It is estimated that making money is certain. Suning did not expect that there were many people in the first batch of people, but hoped that after opening up the situation, the first batch of adventurers made a fortune and lure merchants to join the caravans expedition to the Western Turks, and realize the method of controlling the national economy and people's livelihood of the Western Turks through business. Merchants value profit, which has been done since ancient times, so only by tempting them with real interests can they get into the trap themselves.

When the first group of adventurers made a fortune back to Chang'an, it was when these courageous merchants were trying to join the caravan, and it was not that easy to join the caravan again. They had to pay, pay the price, and pay the price to be monitored. The plan to control the merchants must be unfolded at that time, and they took a two-pronged approach to try a new method.

So Suning smiled and ate alone, waiting for these interns of the Zongheng family to return triumphantly or have no face. There is not much real useful knowledge in these days, it is just a rough idea. However, if this knowledge is used well, it will naturally be possible. The main thing is to see whether they have the ability to say the black ones to white ones and the real ones to fake ones. If they can succeed in this way, they will become the targets of the Zongheng Department’s key training and will have the opportunity to become the real Zongheng family, not the intern.

How many people can successfully return with 130 people? Suning thinks there will be no more than ten, and there will probably be no more than twenty private merchants participating in the caravan this time. In other words, the total number of the first caravans this time will not exceed fifty, which is a medium-sized caravan. In this era, it is obvious that it will carry enough goods to open towns in the Western Turks, and then ensure the smooth transportation of goods. Naturally, the help of the Tang garrison is indispensable.

However, this matter is not only a commercial action, but also a national policy. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty garrison was obliged to help, and of course it was obliged to enjoy remuneration. For example, the reward provided by Weixianju was to use the cattle, sheep and horses of the Western Turkic herders earned as the food for the soldiers, and used it for the Tang Dynasty, and used the food from the Turkic food for the Tang Dynasty to raise soldiers. The original food of the Tang Dynasty soldiers could be stored for winter consumption, because the winter on the grassland was very cold, and generally few herders would trade it. However, at this time, the caravans of the Tang Dynasty could promote the heating objects used by the Tang Dynasty, such as coal, and I believe they could make a profit.

At that time, Suning plans to use the wealth of the Western Turks to spend money and goods to buy the rich grazing land of the Western Turks when they encounter economic crisis. From the root, the Western Turks lose the possibility of survival, and then gradually empty the wealth of the Western Turks. Empty everything about the Western Turks, so that they no longer have the power to pose a threat to the Tang Dynasty, and even become a mercenary of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty attacks wherever it is called, and it will wield it when it is summoned until all of them die... I am still a little excited to think about it...

Of course, things will not develop smoothly like this. Even if they develop like this, they will also need some means to operate. There is no such thing as simple and crude thing to solve. But this is at least a precedent for controlling countries with economic wars. If you operate well, other countries can do this, but they only need the escort of the army to avoid losses in the caravan. The private caravans of the major national dukes and marquis of the state have been approved by His Majesty Li Er, and have been allowed to enter the Western Turks to go to business. At the same time, they have received the protection of the Tang army and provide food and salary for the Tang army...

To put it bluntly, it is to use the money and food of the Turks to raise soldiers for the Tang Dynasty. On the surface, the Tang Dynasty raised its own soldiers, but in fact it was the Western Turks who paid the money and food. This is the significance of Suning asking Ashina Nishu to sign the "Royal Court Treaty". As long as he signed it, he would abide by the treaty. For example, the final interpretation of the article belongs to the Tang Dynasty, which is the core of the entire treaty. With it, you are not afraid that the Western Turks will be dependent on their debts. Even if you do, we can deal with you. The three thousand garrisons in the Tang Dynasty are not vegetarians.

The interns of the Zongheng family went out in the morning and were not back until the Jingjie drum was ringing at night. When they came back, they basically looked speechless and looked like they went to see the elders of Jiangdong. They were very disappointed and wanted to die. They thought they had defiled the knowledge of the Zongheng family and learned the eternal book "Guiguzi" in vain, but they did not master the essence of it. Even a businessman could not convince him, let alone convince the princes and nobles in the future.

Of course, this was within Suning's expectations. Out of Suning's surprise, there were fifteen people, one of whom Suning carved the most. He persuaded five shops to join the Tang Dynasty Expedition to the Western Turkic Caravan, while only one of the other fourteen people convinced two shops, and the other thirteen people convinced one. The final result was that twenty private shops were willing to join the Tang Dynasty Expedition to the Western Turkic Caravan and go to the distant Western Turkic Caravan to hunt for gold.

Suning was very surprised by this. The man who was about thirty years old looked ordinary, but why was he so awesome? One person convinced five shops, persuaded five civil merchants, and prompted them to join the Tang Dynasty caravan to explore a new world. Such skills are not something that an ordinary person can have. On the one hand, Suning comforted 115 failed Zongheng family interns, and on the other hand, rewarded fifteen successful people with one per person. Among them, the young man named Zhang Yuan, who convinced two shops, was given an extra reward of one per person, and the man named Liu Rengui, who convinced five shops, was given an extra reward of four per person.

Suning was a little curious about this matter, so he left Liu Rengui alone and prepared to have dinner with him. Anyway, these interns from the Zongheng family have been studying hard in the Zongheng Department these days, and few people go home. It seems that this person named Liu Rengui never goes back and only knows how to study.

This person is not simple, flexible, eloquent, and knows how to hide his weaknesses. He usually doesn't say a word and can show off at critical moments. A beautiful diplomat candidate needs to be communicated. Now! Suning invited Liu Rengui to enjoy hot pot in the house. In October, there was a hint of cold air in the north. Although it was not very cold, drinking some ice water and eating hot pot still made a difference. Liu Rengui happily accepted the invitation, so he sat down with Suning and embraced the delicious hot pot.

After eating for a while, Suning asked his own question, which is how Liu Rengui convinced the five shops, because among the 130 people, only fifteen people completed the task, and only he completed the task of five people. What is the reason?

Liu Rengui smiled and said, "Su Hou was joking, but before he entered the Zonghengsi, he worked as an official for a while. He has been an official since the beginning of Wude. Of course, his official position is very small, he just does some tricks and often interacts with all kinds of people. Naturally, merchants are indispensable. Su Hou said that merchants value profit Rengui was quite touched. He had had many contacts with merchants before, so this time it happened to be used. If it weren't for the lack of time, he could convince a few more companies.

Speaking of which, a certain family did not like Confucianism very much, but there was no good thing to do. When recruiting military universities before, they wanted to register, but official business was urgent, so they delayed and regretted it. When the Zongheng Department recruited talents, a certain family decided to quit the little official and entered the Zongheng Department to learn the skills of Zongheng, and hoped to become a Zongheng Master."
