"Fortunately, Mr. Sun has stepped forward, and the gloom that has plagued me for the past few days has been swept away. I am really a blessed general." King Han stepped forward and grabbed Sun Yu's shoulders and said. He has been tortured crazy by this incident recently, and his internal guards have suffered losses.

It's serious. If this continues, I'm afraid people will be distracted. Now that it's good, the Jing'an Division's manpower has been severely defeated, and all the masters have been slaughtered. Let's see how they continue to fight against us. Next, the situation will turn, and it's time for the internal guards to seek bad luck for them.

"Everything is the result of the prince's strategizing. I just put in some effort, so how dare I take the credit?" Sun Yu bowed his hands and saluted. If he hadn't used a trick to lure them out, he would not have found them.

"Don't be humble. I have prepared a banquet. Let's go!" King Han immediately walked towards the palace, and Sun Yu followed with two of his men.

"Play music!" King Han had not listened to music for several days. Now he finally got interested. All the musicians in the palace quickly started playing hard. If they continue to be idle like this, they might be kicked out.

During the banquet, cups were pushed and cups were exchanged, and the King of Han repeatedly encouraged people to drink. Sun Yu also refused to accept everyone who came, and the cups were bottomed out.

Sun Yu also explained the general situation in Jianzhou to King Han, and also hinted that the Ministry of Personnel was interested in transferring him to the Ministry of Industry. No matter how well he did in Jianzhou, no one would help him in the court.

Talking at the same time doesn't work either.

"It's normal for the officials to have this idea. Don't be burdened. I and my brother still think that Jianzhou cannot do without you at present, and they are still waiting for you to show your talents. How about Quanzhou? Is there any chance?" King Han

Nodding, the people in the official department must want to get involved in Jianzhou's affairs. After all, the environment in Jianzhou is different now, and there are so many famous people in the official department waiting for alternate officials.

"We have to wait a little longer. There are not enough people available under the official's command. Let's recharge our batteries first. When the opportunity comes, I will naturally give it a try." At the beginning, I was the one who drew the cake in front of the king and the king of Han.

, it is normal for the King of Han to have this question.

"This kind of opportunity has been rare for many years, so we must seize it. If this happens, I, the Tang Dynasty, can also breathe a sigh of relief. I'm afraid you don't know about it in Jianzhou..." King Han was about to go north.

Let’s talk about the situation. The Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, released his military power with a cup of wine in July and reduced the military power of the military governors in various places. The entire Northern Song Dynasty’s imperial army was already in his hands. In the following months, the Northern Song Dynasty’s army mobilized frequently, and there seemed to be an external initiative.

war intentions.

"As the officials below see it, the Northern Song Dynasty must first plot the land of Jingchu." Sun Yu knew the strategy of the Northern Song Dynasty to unify the Central Plains, which was to go from south to north, first to easy things and then to hard ones.

"How can we see it?" Chai Shizong of the later Zhou Dynasty always wanted to expedition to the north. After all, the Khitan in the north was the biggest threat.

"How can the Zhao family compare to Chai Shizong? If the Northern Expedition is blocked, the world will inevitably be in turmoil. If we send troops to Jingchu, the risk will be much smaller. The Zhao family needs a victory to vindicate themselves." Zhao Kuangyin mutinied and bullied Chen Qiao.

They had orphans and widowed mothers, and their position was not right. Once the Northern Expedition was exhausted, all the ambitious people in the world would definitely have to take the lead, and the Northern Song Dynasty would be in trouble. The Southern Tang Dynasty occupied the dangerous position of the Yangtze River, and the roads to Later Shu were difficult to travel.

Han and Khitan vented their anger from the same nostril, which ensured that only Jingchu would be defeated.

"Master Sun is right. If so, we, the Tang Dynasty, can live in peace for a few more days." Jing Chu

Zhou Xingfeng and Gao Baoxu were not easy to get along with. It would be best if the Northern Song Dynasty fell into a quagmire in Jinghu.

"Once the land of Jingchu is captured, our Tang Dynasty will be in danger." Sun Yu shook his head. With the strength of the Northern Song Dynasty, Jingchu could not stop it. According to the memory of later generations, Jingchu was captured by the Northern Song Dynasty in just half a year.

It was easy to get off.

"Indeed!" King Han nodded. Once the land of Jingchu was captured by the Northern Song Dynasty, the connection between the Southern Tang Dynasty and Hou Shu was cut off. In the end, the Northern Song Dynasty defeated each other, making it difficult to fight together. And the most troublesome thing is that the Northern Song Dynasty won

Jingchu, occupying the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, could build warships and train naval forces, and the Southern Tang's naval advantage would gradually be lost.

"In my humble opinion, the Northern Song Dynasty must advance both by water and land to destroy Jingchu. If my navy goes north, Jingchu will have a chance of survival." Sun Yu didn't want it to be too easy for the Northern Song Dynasty to destroy Jingchu, otherwise he would definitely be under greater pressure when he coveted Quanzhou.

It would be best if you could spend two years there and develop yourself with peace of mind.

"It's easier said than done." King Han shook his head. The Southern Tang Dynasty was already in a corner. It would be fine if the Northern Song Dynasty didn't come to fight. How could they dare to take the initiative to attack?

Although they know that they are about to be defeated by each other, they are still wary of each other, hoping that others will be the leader. If they continue to live and die in a dream, it is best to fight each other to the detriment of both sides, and then go up and reap the benefits. There are many people in the world who have this delusion.

When they thought of the current situation faced by Datang, both of them felt inexplicably depressed. What was originally a joyful banquet suddenly turned into a place for drunkenness.

"I want to drink, I'm not drunk, bring me the wine!" King Han was lying on the table, no longer as elegant as before. The wine mixed with the soup, spilling all over his clothes.

"Help the prince to go down and rest, I will take my leave!" After drinking wine from noon until the sun turned west, it was time for Sun Yu to go back. As for Chen Qiba and the vicious dog, they didn't drink much, they basically ate.

Meat, this is what Sun Yu has repeatedly told, drink less and eat more meat.

"Sir, be careful." When he left the palace gate, Sun Yu almost tripped and fell. Fortunately, Chen Qiba had quick eyesight and quick hands and helped him.

"It's okay." Sun Yu waved his hand. The threshold for this palace was really too high.

Sun Yu and his party did not ride horses today for the sake of confidentiality. The three of them walked towards the Duke's Mansion.

"Prince, this is the person, do you want to take action?" On a carriage on the street, Prince Jiang Li Jicao opened the curtain, took a look, and immediately put it down.

"Forget it, you are no match for him." Li Jicao took a look and found that it was indeed Sun Yu. He had suffered defeat under him several times, but he could not get rid of him. Gu Chief of the Jing'an Department said that he had sent a capable person south, but he didn't expect it.

He was still lively and energetic, and as soon as he came back, he killed all the masters he had finally gathered. What was even more annoying was that he actually took away his treasure hunting pavilion. Could it be that he owed it to him in his previous life.

Prince Jiang ordered his subordinates to take a carriage back to the house. Sun Yu was already a top expert, and the two people behind him were also warriors. Let alone Jiangning Mansion, even if they met him outside the city, Li Jicao could only choose to stay away.

escape.

Sun Yu and his entourage strolled slowly to the gate of the Duke's Mansion and saw a man dressed as a scholar.

The middle-aged man was waiting at the door. When he saw Sun Yu returning home, he immediately came over respectfully.

"Young man, I have met you!" The man saluted respectfully.

"Are you Yan Qiu?" Sun Yu had already woken up. When he opened his eyes, he saw that this was Yan Qiu, the former strategist of the Wolf Gang and now the leader of the Qing Gang. Before Sun Yu left Jiangning, he had already revealed his identity.

He was cleared and handed over to him to take care of the Wolf Gang, but the account books still had to be sent to Cheng's house every month for inspection by Cheng Zhenbei's sister Xiaoya.

"Exactly, I came here to report the affairs of the gang when I heard that the master has returned home." Yan Qiu felt happy. Master Sun still remembered him. He was afraid that if he disowned himself, he would be finished sooner or later. How could he gain a foothold in Jiangning without any backers.

"Let's go in first." Sun Yu nodded. He had almost forgotten about the Qing Gang. Yan Qiu was quite sensible.

"Tell me, how is the Qinggang doing now?" Sun Yu turned to look at Yan Qiu, who was following behind. It is really not easy for a small person. But only people like Sun Yu think that Yan Qiu is a small person in the market.

, that is a real big shot, everyone who sees him has to call him "Lord".

Yan Qiu hurriedly gave an overview of the development of the Qinggang during this period. Basically, it was based on Sun Yu's ideas and transformed towards the path of urban management in later generations. Of course, this official status does not exist, but it can be regarded as the tacit approval of Jiangning Mansion.

Non-staff, at least you don’t have to be afraid when you see the police officers and so on. You can have a drink together every once in a while. All the major shops have acquiesced in the existence of the Qing Gang. Anyway, they don’t have many members, so they can save a lot of trouble.

, I feel better every day. But the biggest problem of the Qinggang is that the revenue is not ideal, and I can't save much money every month, because there are many things to do, and there are many people hired, so the expenses are huge. How much can I pay in the yamen above?

You have to show some respect.

"How much money have you saved during this period?" Sun Yu didn't plan on how much money the Qing Gang would make. He just wanted to keep some eyes and ears in Jiangning so that he could take care of the Duke's Mansion.

"One thousand eight hundred taels." Yan Qiu was quite embarrassed, but if he didn't engage in illegal business, the money would come slowly, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"I can't earn three hundred taels a month. It's indeed a little less, but it's not important. I just need to be able to maintain it. I will take out one thousand taels later and give it to Uncle Quan. The remaining eight hundred taels will be reserved for the gang's expenses."

Sun Yu weighed it up and decided that it would be okay if he didn't hand over this cent. After all, it was his own property and he had invested a lot of money in the early stage.

"Thank you for your understanding. I'm thinking of setting up a horse and carriage shop to provide services for people and goods in Jiangning Mansion. I wonder if it's feasible?" People from the Qinggang are now basically all over Jiangning Mansion, and they also cooperate with various shops. If

Providing this service should bring in more monthly income. Nowadays, Jiangning Mansion also uses carriages and horses, but they are all at the city gate. Every time I want to use a carriage, I have to go a long way to find it. Yan Qiu thought, every day

Send some carriages to various corners of the city. Once someone uses the carriage, the Qinggang will immediately help arrange it, and there should be some business.

When Sun Yu heard this, he thought it was similar to the taxis of later generations. It was a good idea, and he immediately nodded in agreement. Moreover, with the carriage shop, it would be more convenient for him to get some things out. For example, the three hundred thousand taels were from
Chapter completed!
