[Comprehensive] Feasibility report on the restoration of the country
Chapter 123 Tribute
Ginseng can greatly invigorate vitality, and it can hang your life in a critical moment, so it is naturally a treasure.The Wanyan tribe lives in Changbai Mountain, and there are as many ginsengs as there are in the mountains and plains.As the saying goes, relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, it stands to reason that the Wanyan Department should have developed long ago.It's just that due to the poor traffic conditions in the Song Dynasty, the dug up ginseng had withered into tree roots before being transported out of Changbai Mountain, and the roots were of course worthless.
Therefore, as soon as He Libu heard what the sick and weak young man in front of him said, he said bluntly: "Young master, I don't know. Once this ginseng is unearthed, its medicinal effect will decline. It may not be easy to transport it to the Central Plains." After a pause, he Add another sentence. "My lord, would you like to collect some deer antlers and furs?" The Wanyan Department has always been poor, and it is rare that a merchant from the Central Plains is willing to buy goods, and of course He Libu also wants to facilitate this business.
Su Mingshi on the opposite side smiled shyly, and said in a low voice: "The patriarch doesn't know, although velvet antlers and furs are also expensive goods, but the juniors don't have enough money, so..."
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, another middle-aged man with three strands of long beard next to Su Mingshi couldn't help giving him a strange look.However, the patriarch and Li Bu of the Wanyan tribe nodded clearly. In his consistent view: people in the Central Plains have always cherished their lives, and if a wealthy businessman wanted to come, he would not come to this bitter cold place to do business.Only those shabby households with no long belongings will have the courage to fight for their lives.Therefore, he only asked: "Young master wants to buy ginseng, but I don't know what price it is?"
"If it is less than 20 years old, it will be ten guan for each; if it is less than 50 years old, it will be thirty guan for each; for more than 50 years, it will be fifty guan for each. If the quality is very good, the price can be negotiated." Su Mingshi said without hesitation , These words attracted the middle-aged man with the three strands of long beard to look at him again. "If the patriarch doesn't want copper coins, he can also pay with grain."
He Libu didn't know the market value of ginseng in the Central Plains, and thought that "every pore was full of dirt and blood" Su Mingshi was a good businessman without deceit, so he couldn't help but stroked his thick beard and said happily: "This price is too expensive." Fair, I wonder how much ginseng you want to buy?"
Su Mingshi bowed slightly, and said in a low tone: "The junior will stay here for ten days, and the junior will accept as much ginseng as the patriarch has, but the ginseng must not be damaged."
"Why is this?" Heli Buqi asked.Ginseng is dug out for people to eat, not for people to see.In his opinion, no matter whether the body is damaged or not, it will not affect the efficacy of the medicine.
But this time, Su Mingshi didn't answer any more, just smiled and said: "In the next ten days, I still need to trouble the patriarch to take care of it."
He Libu saw that Su Mingshi avoided answering, so he knew that this should be his secret of making money and should not be spread, so he no longer entangled in this matter, only turned his head to his second son Wanyan Aguda and said: "Aguda, you are good to entertain on behalf of your father. Mr. Su."
Wanyan Agu replied "Yes", and then led Su Mingshi, who looked increasingly weak, and his two followers out of his father's tent.
Just because Su Mingshi and his party saved his life, Wanyan Aguda was grateful for his life-saving grace, so he gave up his big tent to Su Mingshi and his two followers for a while.Seeing the middle-aged man with three strands of long beard under his chin before the three of them entered the big tent, he hastily took out a pill that was snow-white and exuded a strange fragrance, and served it to Su Mingshi, he couldn't help but said: "Su Since brother is not in good health, why bother to come here to risk your life?"
Su Mingshi stroked his chest with one hand and gasped for a few times, his originally snow-white face gradually turned a little blush, as if the fine white porcelain had been smoked with a mist-like famille rose, making the original cold texture faintly tinge. It's a little warmer.Hearing Wanyan Aguda's question, Su Mingshi couldn't help but smiled wryly and said: "Brother Wanyan, my Su family has encountered a catastrophe, the whole family died, and I am the only one left. If I can't stand up, there will be no Su in the future." Home, how can you not fight for your life?"
Wanyan Aguda was born in the mountains and grew up in the mountains. He lived a bloody life of fighting and hunting against the sinister nature. He always only admired those brave heroes.However, for some reason, when he saw the reserved and quiet Su Mingshi, he seemed to see the "smoke willow painting bridge, wind curtain and emerald curtain" in the Song population.Gentleness and vicissitudes, forbearance and brilliance, instantly turned the harsh Changbai Mountain into a ten-foot-soft red Bianjing city.Wanyan Agu's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, "Brother Su, what do you mean?"
Su Mingshi chuckled suddenly, and slowly uttered six words. "Khitan people, threshing grass!" The voice was cold and piercing, like a ghost, and Wanyan Aguda trembled all over his body.
As soon as Wanyan Agudafang left, the middle-aged man with the three-strand beard next to Su Mingshi immediately became sullen. "Lord Murong, if you stay here for ten days, half your life will die, please think again!" It turns out that the three people in this group are Murong Fu, Bao Budong and Xue Muhua.
This Jianghu genius doctor "Yan Wang Enemy" Xue Muhua was invited from Ganzhou by Baodong to treat Murong Fu's illness in March this year. When his pulse was checked, it was found that he was not only suffering from a serious heart disease, but also poisoned by Xingxiuhai's strange poison "Xiaoyaoxiang" ".This poison is tested with ten kinds of poisonous insects and ten kinds of poisonous plants from the Western Regions. Once the poisoned person is injured, he will bleed continuously. People are easily overjoyed and angry, until their energy and blood are exhausted and they die violently.In order to detoxify this poison, Xue Muhua searched through the medical and poisonous scriptures that Murong Fu got from Xu Zhu, but he only found one way - since the poison arises with internal energy, use Huagong powder to dissipate Murong Fu's body Internal force, toxicity can be cured without medicine.However, this method was sent to Murong Fu's case, but Murong Fu was noncommittal.Xue Muhua himself was detained by Murong Fu and acted as his health care doctor.He has been with Murong Fu for several months, and for some reason he is always very afraid of this Mr. Murong, who is always polite and polite, and dare not touch him easily.It's just that it's bitterly cold outside the pass and there is a lack of medical care, and the winter is the most difficult time for people suffering from heart disease. Xue Muhua is really worried that Murong Fu's life-threatening will really kill his own life.
Xue Muhua's words were convincing, and Bao Tong's face immediately showed a bit of anxiety.
But Murong Fu didn't care about it, he just said casually: "Doctor Xue, did you come here with me from all over the world just for fun?"
Can I choose whether to come to Changbai Mountain or not? !Xue Muhua sneaked a sideways glance at Murong Fu, and said nothing more.
Murong Fu pretended not to know about this, but Bao BuTong, who was sitting beside him, hugged Xue MuHua worriedly.
At this time, the Wanyan tribe still lived mainly in groups, and kept a simple communist ideology in their living habits.In the next few days, most of the Wanyan tribe went to the mountains to dig ginseng, only a few young and strong, led by Wanyan Aguda, formed a small team to go hunting and prepare daily food for the whole tribe.Murong Fu and the three of them had nothing else to do, so they followed Wanyan Aguda to go hunting together.Xue Muhua and Bao Budong saw that the Jurchens were very brave, two or three people could hunt a tiger, and six or seven people dared to fight a black bear, they couldn't help but be amazed.
Bao BuTong stared at the scenes of the Jurchens hunting for a while, then quietly walked to Murong Fu's side, and said in a low voice, "Master, these Jurchens are tough and good at fighting, you must watch them!"
Murong Fu nodded slightly, and said softly: "Brother Bao, go and help."
"Yes!" Bao BuTong immediately responded, raised his spear and walked towards the black bear surrounded by several Jurchens.
With the help of flintlock guns, Wanyan's hunting efficiency has also made great progress in the past few days.Ethnic minorities have always had the custom of singing and dancing. The hunting and digging of ginseng in the past few days has been a bountiful harvest. Everyone of the Wanyan tribe is happy, so they light a bonfire at night to surround the stove and liven it up.During the banquet, the people of the Wanyan tribe drank big bowls of wine and ate meat, the young and strong people enjoyed sumo wrestling, and the daughter's family held hands and sang and danced.
Murong Fu was weak and refused to drink alcohol and sumo wrestling, but he really couldn't refuse to dance again.Seeing him standing up with a face of embarrassment, he took off his cloak under the gaze of the young and bold Jurchen girl.Not only Wanyan Aguda was in high spirits, but Bao Budong and Xue Muhua also looked like they were waiting for a good show.Murong Fu sighed softly, and begged for mercy in a low voice: "Miss, I have something to say first, this song and dance technique really has six senses..." Before he finished speaking, he was pulled into the crowd.
The people of the Wanyan tribe couldn't help applauding when they saw the big gold master singing and dancing.Unexpectedly, before the song could be heard, Helibu's eldest son, Wu Yashu, hurried in with a few young men in charge of guarding, and said to Helibu with a sullen face, "Father, the angel of the Lord of Liao is here!"
While talking, three or five Daliao guards rushed in on tall horses, and said arrogantly: "Your Majesty's angel, the king of the Southern Court will arrive at the Wanyan Department tomorrow morning, and the Wanyan Department's tribute this year should be prepared quickly. The king of Chu has been waiting for a long time!"
As soon as this person's voice fell, the happy singing and dancing that filled the sky above Wanyan's department stopped abruptly.
For the next three days, Murong Fu used the excuse that he didn't want to cause trouble for the Wanyan tribe because he couldn't contain his anger after meeting the Khitan people, so he hid in the big tent and never went out.But even so, the news that should be known still reached his ears verbatim.As for the person who spread the news, it was Wanyan Aguda.
Wanyan Aguda knew very well that Murong Fu's musket was powerful, seeing that he was able to trap himself in the big tent in order to suppress the blood feud of Wanyan's family these few days, he was even more grateful for his kindness in his heart, so he often took time to visit Murong Fu.When the two chatted, the topic would naturally be brought to the angel of the Lord of Liao.
"Heroic, like a good man, but his actions are too sinister!" Wanyan Agu said bitterly. "In the past, the Khitan people usually came to collect tribute in October, but now there is still a month's difference. They must be deliberately finding fault!"
Murong Fu heard Wanyan Aguda's evaluation of Xiao Feng, he felt very strange in his heart, he managed to control his expression with difficulty, and tried his best to ask in a steady tone: "Brother Wanyan was not familiar with that angel before?"
Wanyan Aguda shook his head in amazement, and mockingly said: "He is a Khitan nobleman, I am a savage, I dare not climb up!" It turns out that this time Xiao Feng never missed and injured Azi, and he never went to Changbai Mountain to look for ginseng for her. He never had the chance to meet Wanyan Aguda.
Murong Fu thought through these things, and gradually suppressed the chaotic emotions in his heart, he only asked: "Since this angel has arrived early, is there any difficulty for Brother Wanyan in paying tribute?"
Speaking of this, Wanyan Aguda frowned even more.The Wanyan tribe has always been poor, and the tribute that can be handed over every year is not only the domesticated horses and the northern beads caught, but also the antlers, furs and other mountain products obtained from hunting in the past.This time, Murong Fu came to collect ginseng, and Xiao Feng arrived a month earlier, the tribute to Khitan is indeed not ready yet.He was silent for a long while, then suddenly said coyly: "Brother Su, I have something to ask..."
"Yes!" Unexpectedly, before Wanyan Aguda could speak, Murong Fu agreed without blinking an eye, and then turned to tell Bao BuTong to say. "Brother Bao, go get Jiaozi."
"Yes!" Bao BuTong responded immediately, then got up and took out a stack of jiaozi from their luggage and handed it to Wanyan Aguda.
"Here is three thousand guan. Brother Wanyan can use these silver bills to buy goods from various tribes, and give them to the Liao Lord Angel as a tribute. As for the rest, just treat it as an advance payment for the purchase of ginseng." Murong Fu slowly road.
Wanyan Aguda held the stack of friends and rolled his Adam's apple up and down twice, Fang hoarsely said: "Aguda is a barbarian who has no sense of shame, Brother Su, isn't he afraid that I will kill people and steal money?" Willing to do business with foreigners outside the pass, what is afraid of is the current situation of Murong Fu.Those barbarians are fierce and immoral. Once the wealth of the merchants in the Central Plains is exposed, they will kill them in all likelihood.The corpse was cut into seventeen or eighteen pieces and thrown into the mountain stream to become food for vultures.This case, even after 100 years, don't try to solve it!
Murong Fu shook his head slightly, and said softly: "Brother Wanyan I know is an upright and honest man! If Su doesn't even have this little ability to know people, then death is not a pity!" In A Guda's eyes, his brother Su is really going to fall in the wind.He lived in Wanyan's department for seven or eight days, even though Wanyan Aguda had been extremely careful and couldn't hold him in his palm or hide him in his heart, Su Mingshi was still getting weaker and weaker at a speed visible to the naked eye.After these few days of getting along, Su Mingshi has firmly established his impression of the Central Plains people in Wanyan Aguda's heart on several key words such as "weakness", "elegance", "gentleness", and "delicacy".I don't want his smile at this moment to make Wanyan Ah Guda show a bit of decisiveness in an instant, and then he suddenly remembered that his "Brother Su" was sick, but he was able to lead a few followers to Changbai Mountain alone This kind of courageous person in a place where aliens gather together.
Wanyan Aguda is a native Jurchen, she wears animal skins and lives in a cave, and she doesn't know etiquette and associates with animals.The whole family can't even make a few mouthfuls of iron pots, so even the Khitan people and those Shufan tribes can bully them at will.Hearing that Su Mingshi, a gentle Central Plains native, recognized his character today, Wanyan Aguda felt his heart agitated, immediately stood up and hugged Murong Fu tightly in his arms, patted him on the back and said repeatedly: "Good brother! Good brother!"
Murong Fu still smiled, and said in a low voice: "Since we are brothers, there is no need to be so polite. Brother Wanyan, the business is important!"
"Yes! Yes!" Wanyan Aguda was alerted by his reminder, but now the most important thing is to get rid of those Khitan people. "Brother Su, the Wanyan clan will definitely not forget your kindness!" He said every word, and quickly walked out with Jiaozi.
With the help of Murong Fu's [-] disciples, the Wanyan tribe quickly contacted several tribes that had made good friends with them, and bought enough goods to deal with the Liao Lord Angel.Another five days later, Xiao Feng received the full amount of tribute from the Wanyan tribe, had a drink with the patriarch He Libu and his eleven sons, then left with a whip.
It was not until Xiao Feng's men left without a trace, and the patriarch and Libu hosted a banquet to thank Murong for his help, Wanyan Aguda finally had a good word for Xiao Feng. "I don't ask for bribes, and I don't want women. I'm a clean and honest official."
Murong Fu just smiled and said nothing, after a while he said: "Brother Wanyan, it's almost time for Su to leave for the Central Plains."
Wanyan Aguda was regretting that he had spoken unrestrainedly in front of Murongfu and praised his family-destroying enemy, but he was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "So fast? I haven't dug up enough ginseng yet!"
"It's enough." Murong Fu said sternly, "I only brought three thousand ginseng, but the Wanyan Department gave me two carts of ginseng, it's enough no matter what."
However, the patriarch and Li Bu also said: "Young master Su's life-saving grace to Wanyan's tribe is not only repaid by these two carts of ginseng." The Khitan people have always regarded the Jurchens as slaves, oppressing and slaughtering them at will.This time, if Murong Fu hadn't used three thousand guns to solve their urgent needs, the entire Wanyan Department would have been accused.
Murong Fu bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "If the patriarch is grateful for the help of the younger generation, this junior may as well make an agreement with the patriarch. If there are other merchants who come to buy ginseng in the future, at the same price, please allow Su to buy first. "
He Libu thought for a moment before he understood the doorway inside, couldn't help laughing loudly, and said in admiration: "Mr. Su, you will definitely be a great businessman in the future!"
"May I borrow the patriarch's auspicious words. Our business will last forever!" Murong Fu replied meaningfully.
Early in the morning of the second day, Murong Fu packed his luggage and left Changbai Mountain with two large carts of ginseng.Wanyan Aguda sent them all the way for more than ten miles, Fang reluctantly bid farewell to Murong Fu and left.
But Wanyan Aguda didn't know, as soon as he left, Murong Fu lowered his face and asked Bao BuTong: "Then Wu YaShu's appearance, third brother Bao, can you remember it clearly?"
Bao Dong replied sternly: "I won't forget it even if it turns into ashes."
"Very good!" Murong Fu said slowly, "Brother Bao, the business is important, you go ahead."
"Yes!" Bao BuTong bowed his head in response, but he didn't drive away in a hurry. "My lord, Xiao Feng is also here this time, I'm afraid my subordinates..."
Murong Fu's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice: "You think that I brought Jiaozi out to Wanyan Aguda in advance just to show favor to Wanyan's department?... Don't worry, when 'Wu Yashu' goes to attack the Khitan guards Xiao Feng will definitely not be there." He looked up at the sky, and suddenly smiled jokingly. "At this time, he should also be aware of a problem."
The author has something to say:
Murong: At this time, he should also be aware of a problem.
Xiao Feng: The smell in the wind, I know something is wrong when I smell it!
Therefore, as soon as He Libu heard what the sick and weak young man in front of him said, he said bluntly: "Young master, I don't know. Once this ginseng is unearthed, its medicinal effect will decline. It may not be easy to transport it to the Central Plains." After a pause, he Add another sentence. "My lord, would you like to collect some deer antlers and furs?" The Wanyan Department has always been poor, and it is rare that a merchant from the Central Plains is willing to buy goods, and of course He Libu also wants to facilitate this business.
Su Mingshi on the opposite side smiled shyly, and said in a low voice: "The patriarch doesn't know, although velvet antlers and furs are also expensive goods, but the juniors don't have enough money, so..."

In A Guda's eyes, his brother Su is really going to fall in the wind.He lived in Wanyan's department for seven or eight days, even though Wanyan Aguda had been extremely careful and couldn't hold him in his palm or hide him in his heart, Su Mingshi was still getting weaker and weaker at a speed visible to the naked eye.After these few days of getting along, Su Mingshi has firmly established his impression of the Central Plains people in Wanyan Aguda's heart on several key words such as "weakness", "elegance", "gentleness", and "delicacy".I don't want his smile at this moment to make Wanyan Ah Guda show a bit of decisiveness in an instant, and then he suddenly remembered that his "Brother Su" was sick, but he was able to lead a few followers to Changbai Mountain alone This kind of courageous person in a place where aliens gather together.
Wanyan Aguda is a native Jurchen, she wears animal skins and lives in a cave, and she doesn't know etiquette and associates with animals.The whole family can't even make a few mouthfuls of iron pots, so even the Khitan people and those Shufan tribes can bully them at will.Hearing that Su Mingshi, a gentle Central Plains native, recognized his character today, Wanyan Aguda felt his heart agitated, immediately stood up and hugged Murong Fu tightly in his arms, patted him on the back and said repeatedly: "Good brother! Good brother!"
Murong Fu still smiled, and said in a low voice: "Since we are brothers, there is no need to be so polite. Brother Wanyan, the business is important!"
"Yes! Yes!" Wanyan Aguda was alerted by his reminder, but now the most important thing is to get rid of those Khitan people. "Brother Su, the Wanyan clan will definitely not forget your kindness!" He said every word, and quickly walked out with Jiaozi.
With the help of Murong Fu's [-] disciples, the Wanyan tribe quickly contacted several tribes that had made good friends with them, and bought enough goods to deal with the Liao Lord Angel.Another five days later, Xiao Feng received the full amount of tribute from the Wanyan tribe, had a drink with the patriarch He Libu and his eleven sons, then left with a whip.
It was not until Xiao Feng's men left without a trace, and the patriarch and Libu hosted a banquet to thank Murong for his help, Wanyan Aguda finally had a good word for Xiao Feng. "I don't ask for bribes, and I don't want women. I'm a clean and honest official."
Murong Fu just smiled and said nothing, after a while he said: "Brother Wanyan, it's almost time for Su to leave for the Central Plains."
Wanyan Aguda was regretting that he had spoken unrestrainedly in front of Murongfu and praised his family-destroying enemy, but he was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "So fast? I haven't dug up enough ginseng yet!"
"It's enough." Murong Fu said sternly, "I only brought three thousand ginseng, but the Wanyan Department gave me two carts of ginseng, it's enough no matter what."
However, the patriarch and Li Bu also said: "Young master Su's life-saving grace to Wanyan's tribe is not only repaid by these two carts of ginseng." The Khitan people have always regarded the Jurchens as slaves, oppressing and slaughtering them at will.This time, if Murong Fu hadn't used three thousand guns to solve their urgent needs, the entire Wanyan Department would have been accused.
Murong Fu bowed slightly, and said with a smile: "If the patriarch is grateful for the help of the younger generation, this junior may as well make an agreement with the patriarch. If there are other merchants who come to buy ginseng in the future, at the same price, please allow Su to buy first. "
He Libu thought for a moment before he understood the doorway inside, couldn't help laughing loudly, and said in admiration: "Mr. Su, you will definitely be a great businessman in the future!"
"May I borrow the patriarch's auspicious words. Our business will last forever!" Murong Fu replied meaningfully.
Early in the morning of the second day, Murong Fu packed his luggage and left Changbai Mountain with two large carts of ginseng.Wanyan Aguda sent them all the way for more than ten miles, Fang reluctantly bid farewell to Murong Fu and left.
But Wanyan Aguda didn't know, as soon as he left, Murong Fu lowered his face and asked Bao BuTong: "Then Wu YaShu's appearance, third brother Bao, can you remember it clearly?"
Bao Dong replied sternly: "I won't forget it even if it turns into ashes."
"Very good!" Murong Fu said slowly, "Brother Bao, the business is important, you go ahead."
"Yes!" Bao BuTong bowed his head in response, but he didn't drive away in a hurry. "My lord, Xiao Feng is also here this time, I'm afraid my subordinates..."
Murong Fu's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice: "You think that I brought Jiaozi out to Wanyan Aguda in advance just to show favor to Wanyan's department?... Don't worry, when 'Wu Yashu' goes to attack the Khitan guards Xiao Feng will definitely not be there." He looked up at the sky, and suddenly smiled jokingly. "At this time, he should also be aware of a problem."
The author has something to say:
Murong: At this time, he should also be aware of a problem.
Xiao Feng: The smell in the wind, I know something is wrong when I smell it!
