No shortage of walls

In fact, it is very convenient to make glass bottles to store glycerin and toothpaste. It was just Huada's suggestion that since rich foreigners are easy to deceive, they should first make crystals and sell them. A crystal can be worth dozens or hundreds of oxcarts of facial cream. Once the glass bottle is blown out, others will know about it, so why not make a lot of money first?

Song Xing didn't expect this, so he agreed when Hua Da mentioned it. All they had to do was spread the word and dig out a piece of crystal there. Needless to say, if the Liao Kingdom is conquered, there will definitely be many crystals in the Liao Kingdom's palace.

Therefore, it is better to use green bamboo as a bottle for toothpaste and facial cream!

Cui Zhengyu went to the study room to request an order. It is said that the production of bamboo bottles is too slow. It is not a confidential matter anyway. Can it be done by the common people?

Therefore, the Zhengtong Daily added an additional issue in November! Newspapers contain nothing but jokes and folktales. Just board the two most important things.

First, in the future, the workshops will need all things that are not confidential technologies, such as bamboo wine jars, etc., which the Song Dynasty already had, and will never be taken back to the court; the workshops need to be made by people with good skills, and the price Cui Zheng, the Minister of the Workshop, requested an edict and decided that the price would never be lower than the lowest price among the people in the Song Dynasty. Cui Zheng, the Minister of the Workshop, was responsible for overall planning and consideration. The craftsmen first went to the local government to register what they would do; it would be convenient for future pick-ups. Shan, His Majesty, the orthodox emperor, has not yet revealed his magical skills, so he needs many kinds of craftsmen.

Secondly, this year the Song army avenged the heroes of the old Qingzhou Pass. Soldiers died heroically and lived hard. In March next year, His Majesty the Orthodox Emperor will send Mr. Liu, the Minister of Rites, to buy sheep from foreign countries. He must ensure that each public official has half a sheep! Eat happily.

As soon as this report came out, the people of the Song Dynasty were overjoyed; everyone who had craftsmen signed up with the officials and said what they could do, in the hope that when the time comes, the workshop officials would come to them to place orders.

The words"His Majesty the Orthodox Emperor has not yet revealed his magical skills" are enough to shock the world. It should be noted that the new emperor has not been in power for a long time, and now there are so many new and unprecedented things that make money.

At this time, the people of the Song Dynasty believed that their emperor was sent from heaven.

Because newspapers issued imperial edicts on behalf of the people, the people of the Song Dynasty also knew that the emperor often did things that were beneficial to the people. Newspapers rushed to buy it, and at one time it exceeded 500,000 copies.

The additional issue was issued five days later in November. The main reason is that the newspaper sells well and the court makes money, but the court's newspaper is a matter of benefit to the people. Starting from the first monthly issue of the first month of the third year of Zhengtong next year, the price of the newspaper will be reduced to thirty cents, instead of selling for thirty-five cents. The price of the Song Dynasty and its neighboring countries will be unified.

The world was shocked again, and the people of the Song Dynasty all paid homage to the chief of the imperial city, saying that the emperor exempted and reduced taxes and everything he did was for the benefit of the people, and even five big bucks from the newspaper were not earned by the people.

Two consecutive issues were sent abroad. Even the neighbors were surprised. How many novel skills did Emperor Song's son have? The Song Emperor had a knack for winning over the military. Although we don't know how many soldiers there are in the Song Dynasty, there are always three to four hundred thousand soldiers plus political personnel. This year, more than 200,000 are not enough. Could it be that the Song army exceeds 500,000?

Song Xing issued such an imperial edict at this time entirely out of political and strategic considerations. It was related to the fact that the Song Dynasty was currently attacking the Liao Kingdom. There were actually not many soldiers in the Song Kingdom, but they were just too many compared to the people of the Song Kingdom. This year's number of sheep has been handed over. When it was over, the newspaper was also sent out; even if the report was not sent out, the spies between countries would know about it; the meaning of this move was very simple, to exaggerate the number of soldiers in the Song Dynasty; and secondly, to control the actions of the neighbors with the increase in business, so that Foreign countries don’t dare to interfere.

When Song Xing started his layout, he planned to control the affairs of his neighbors through buying and selling. When doing business with the Qi State, it was true that the Song State made fine salt and the raw materials were not enough; in fact, it was also intended to be a check and balance. It was just that Song Ru's rebellion had a blow to the military and political affairs of the Song State and did not leave Song Xing for five years. development time.

Now let’s send out the matter of sheep and grains in advance. I just hope that trading can control others. There is a war ahead. It is best for Xia Huqi not to take action. Anyway, soldiers need food and soap needs grease. The most important thing is that there is real money in the business of the workshop. As long as the Liao Kingdom is conquered and taken over as Song Dynasty, the rest will be slow.

Song Xing has already calculated the business transactions. Money is not a problem. Once the sugar comes out next year, there will be another income. The problem is that as long as Xia Huqi doesn't move, everything will be fine.

Song Xing actually didn't want to attack Liao so soon. There is still little training for the newly recruited soldiers. However, Liu Gongquan's Ministry of National Security returned with news that Song Ru was rebelling against the country and the people's resentment was very serious. The Song State had been bullied by its neighbors for a long time. It had never been able to tolerate a traitor like the new emperor. The people's resentment was boiling, and it was the same in both the north and the south. ; Waiting any longer would be politically detrimental to the reputation of the orthodox emperor.

Since public resentment is boiling, just do it to him. When the new emperor comes to the throne, he must win the first prize in politics and war; he has stopped attacking Qi before to appease the people's grievances, and now he will not attack Liao. Even if the new emperor has many novel skills, in the hearts of the people, he is still an emperor who is afraid of war.

Ordinary people, who have an overall view of the world situation, political balance, and strategic vision? Who knows whether the country has such strength and various problems after winning or losing? It's just that the Song Dynasty has always preferred death to surrender. The people are not afraid of death, and the soldiers are not afraid of death. However, the new emperor stopped him and did not take action. It’s really hard to talk.

Although the common people did not have such overall vision and wisdom, Song Xing was the leader of the Song Dynasty, so he had to consider this issue. As an emperor, since he wants to provoke a war. It is necessary to have a good reputation as a teacher, be confident and confident, and not be able to defeat the enemy.

After all, this is the first battle after the new emperor takes the throne, and it must be a complete victory.

Song Ru's rebellion against the country was a political and military blow to the Song Dynasty. Now that everyone in the world knows about it, the master has gained a reputation and is confident. Now the only thing left is victory or defeat.

Therefore, the Liao Kingdom is being attacked at this moment, and this news is published in the newspaper. It is just to let the neighbors think more before they are ready to take action. It is a two-pronged approach.

Song Xing just did his best and obeyed fate. The Ministry of National Security was established only a short time ago. If you want to control the details, you still don't have the ability.

But Song Xing didn't have much to worry about in this battle; the news of Liu Gongquan's return said that Qingzhou was the only barrier between the Liao and Song Dynasties, and there had already been hatred between the Liao and Song Dynasties. It was a matter of ten years. Secondly, to the north of the Liao Kingdom was the Yue Kingdom Suiguo, which was not as big as the Liao Kingdom. Being the boss, it was inevitable that he had high ambitions and low skills. The Liao Emperor was mediocre, and the combat effectiveness of his soldiers was not as good as that of the Song soldiers. As long as they passed the Qingzhou Pass, Even if there are 160,000 troops, it doesn't matter.

By this time, Jizhou has become the territory of the Song Dynasty; the morale of the army is the same for a while, and Wu has entered to win the state; it will depend on the situation at that time, whether to mobilize the troops from the southern border.

Song Xing's only concern was his four neighbors, mainly Xixia, Donghu, and Dongqi.
