Chapter 140 Attitudes of the Parties
"He said he wanted us to accept the imperial court's favor and admit that our team is the imperial court's regiment training local soldiers, so that the imperial court can face it! In this way, the imperial court will be able to persuade the imperial court not to send troops to besiege the lake and let fishermen come to the lake to fight Fish, and open trading... If this is the case, it is indeed a good thing for us..." Wang Wendao said.

"Since it was Brother Zhao's order, he will deal with it on his own at the court. We should follow what he said and just return to the court... Of course, if we do that, our brothers may become paralyzed and careless, and many mouths will gradually fade away. For prevention, spies may sneak in, and the training will not be as urgent as before...We must pay attention to these issues, we must be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and we must not slack at all!" said Sha Changhe, who is good at training.

Everyone nodded, agreeing with the kid's statement.In terms of boosting morale and strict military discipline, although this kid is young and outrageous, he is indeed capable.

"Well, it's actually very good to do this. Although we admit that it is the imperial regiment training local soldiers, it's like some small countries paying tribute to a big country. We just bowed our heads, and there is no loss!" He Sanhuai Twirling his beard, he said.

He Sanhuai drank a bowl of wine vigorously, and continued: "However, the lifting of the ban on the lake and the resumption of trade are a great thing for our development. Most of the craftsmen trained by the four Zhao brothers were In exchange, we rely on the things they made with their craftsmanship, as long as we sell them, we don’t have to grab anything, and we can feed as many people as possible!”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

He Sanhuai paused, and continued: "This is an advantage on the one hand. On the other hand, after the lake ban is lifted, we can come and go freely. Now our reputation has been spread, and the imperial court has stepped up the suppression of other hills. The caressing strength, after that, those who come to vote will definitely flock to it..."

"Of course the imperial court isn't that stupid. There are definitely benefits to doing this, but we can't think too optimistically! We have to plan for the worst in everything and leave enough room for our brothers!" Wang Wendao said, "I believe According to the reply Zhao Si brothers said, order the carpenters to renovate the various ships that have been dragged back, the armor of the warships, and the repair of civilian ships. Since the lake ban can be opened, then we must be ready for trade... Order the craftsmen to increase the production of cement , this thing should be very useful..."

Now in Liangshan, except for Wang Lun's people, everyone else listened to Zhao Si. This matter, he said that it was finalized, so he replied to this letter in two ways: light and dark.

Of course, Wang Wendao knew that this kind of letter was regarded as an official document. After Zhao Si had read it, he had to show it to Gao Qiu and take it to the emperor for business. So when writing this letter, he used a large piece of paper. Write from left to right from top to bottom, and write to the right, leaving some blank space, whether it is big or not, or small or not.

Zhao Si wrote the part written with milk in small petty-headed lowercase letters on the blank space of this part, and dried it. Of course, nothing can be seen.He gave such a letter to the messenger and brought it back to the Tianwu Army barracks.

As soon as Zhao Si saw the blank spot on the right, he understood what was going on, and read the reply in public with Gao Qiu and the generals.

"I didn't expect them to agree!" Gao Qiu said, obviously he was a little surprised.

"It's nothing surprising. Not everyone can do rebellion. In fact, many people rise up because they are forced by life to find a way to survive! In fact, their most common idea is to occupy a mountain. , robbing houses, licking blood with knives, and then eating wine in big bowls, eating meat in big pieces, and sharing money in big scales...their highest ideal is nothing more than this!"

"However, Liangshan now has a population of 2 at least? If they don't go down the mountain to rob, what will they use to feed so many people? And if they go down the mountain to rob, the robbery of 2 people is no small matter. , the imperial court cannot turn a blind eye to it..." I have to say that Gao Qiu's worry is also justified.

"Lord Taiwei, you are worrying too much! The reason why the lower officials wrote a letter is that they will reply like this when they are sure! Opening the lake ban and resuming trade on the lake is the greatest way for them to survive. Among them, There is also a person like me, the adults think, they can’t produce anything? If they can produce all kinds of weird things, don’t they worry about not being able to support tens of thousands of people?”

When Zhao Si said this, Gao Qiu's heart suddenly became clear.Now with Tong Guan and him, Zhao Si casually mentioned a few methods, such as burning glass with sand, steaming water and wine into shochu. Full, incomparably rich...

Thinking of this, Gao Qiu seemed to have seen the rise of a new business empire on Mount Liang. The white silver flowed like water towards this lake and this mountain. Unfortunately, none of these had anything to do with him... When he thought of the papermaking industry he was building Gao Qiu suddenly asked: "Could they also come out to make paper and sell it?"

Sure enough, a traitorous minister is a traitorous minister. What he thought of was not the country, the country, or the emperor, but himself!
He didn't even shy away from it. All the generals were present, which showed how much he cared.

Of course, Zhao Si can't talk about these trivial things in front of everyone, after all, this is a private matter, and now they are talking about official business...

"For the specific matter, I will find a time to report it to Lord Taiwei! Now, if the Lord agrees to this matter, I will send them an official document at the Yamen of Jeju Prefecture! After this matter is over, it will be settled. We Then you can return to the court with peace of mind, and have a good year!" Zhao Si, of course, wanted to drag the matter into business.

Hearing what Zhao Si said, Gao Qiu also realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly said: "Yes, this is the way to do it! Our military has no objections, please ask the imperial envoy to deal with it quickly..."

It sounds like Gao Lian pushed the matter away!But Zhao Si felt that he had already been informed about this matter, and he had no objection, that is to say, he agreed!As for ordering this kind of thing, of course he did it himself, because he was an imperial envoy sent by the emperor...

So Zhao Si summoned Zhang Shuye and told him about the matter. Zhang Shuye shook his head like a rattle and said, "This is simply breeding tigers! A power of nearly 2 people just opened their eyes like this!" Just close your eyes and let it go, maybe in a few years they will develop into a giant... And the most important thing is, this group of people are not ordinary people, among them there are capable people who are more powerful than you, Once they grow into tens of thousands or even 10,000+ people, and equipped with their powerful weapons, they will be enough to rule the world, who will come forward to clean up?"

As expected of a famous anti-golden general and a national hero, Song Jiang in history was captured by Zhang Shuye. It was indeed not wronged, but he is really a sensible person...
