Fang Zhengyi recalled the news he had read in his previous life.
A few college students who were just starting out took the initiative to visit sweatshops for the sake of justice in their hearts. They found a lot of problems, such as no toilet paper in the toilets, low wages, long working hours and so on.
As a result, the matter became a big deal, the upstream company of the factory cancelled cooperation, and the sweatshop could no longer operate and had to lay off the workers.
Little did they know that those workers who farmed in their hometowns suffered terribly and could not earn much money in a year.
Although working in a factory is tiring, it is far less than farming. And earning two to three thousand yuan a month has improved life a lot.
There is no paper in the toilet because the workers often steal toilet paper.
The college students were still full of pride and thought they had done a good thing.
As a result, the fired workers are no longer exploited, but they no longer have a choice.
You know, even if they work so hard on the farm that they bleed, it is still not as easy as working in a factory and earning more in a month.
After losing his job, he wandered around the streets, wishing he could kill those students with a wrench!
Li Yuanzhao was like this at the beginning, and he did many similar stupid things. The better thing he did was to just foolishly give people money.
Fortunately, he is very smart and has a strong learning ability!
The teachings of the ministers in the court also definitely played an important role.
By combining theory with practice, Li Yuanzhao made rapid progress.
It's even faster than Sasuke opening his Sharingan after his entire family died!
Fang Zhengyi continued to talk: "Your Highness has grown a lot now. He can even manage tens of thousands of disaster victims with the help of others! This is already an incredible ability!"
"I don't know whether Your Highness will be a good emperor, nor do I know what a good emperor is."
"Is there a standard for being a good emperor?"
"I don't think so. I only know that Your Highness has a kind heart and a heart that loves the people."
"Even though he was naughty for a while, he is still growing up. His Highness longs to be recognized, but he will not use force to order others to flatter him. His Highness likes fine clothes and food just like ordinary people, but he can still share the hardships of the people."
"How many emperors in ancient and modern times have been tyrannical, ambitious, and fond of flattery?"
"So I don't know if Your Highness will be a good emperor, but based on your current performance, you have surpassed most emperors in history. What he lacks now is only experience."
Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up!
It’s so damn good, Your Majesty will definitely not find any fault with it!
As expected!
Emperor Jing showed a delighted expression and asked, "Fang Qing, you are not flattering him, are you?"
"Every word I said is true! I am not good at lying! Your Majesty should be able to see through it with his sharp eyes."
........
"He~tui!"
After greeting Paba, Guo Tianyang went to the imperial study to report. As soon as he walked to the door, he heard these words coming from inside.
Without hesitation, he spat a mouthful of thick phlegm onto the ground.
The guard at the door looked at Guo Tianyang with disdain.
Then continue to stand guard attentively.
Hearing the two people chatting so happily, Guo Tianyang took a deep breath and decided not to go in. He just stood at the door waiting for Fang Zheng to come out.
Seeing that there was a large piece of spit on the ground, he hurried forward and spread it evenly with his feet.
This caused the guards to look down upon him again...
........
Emperor Jing was satisfied with all the compliments given to Li Yuanzhao.
There was a little more appreciation in the look he gave Fang Zhengyi.
He lowered his eyebrows and looked at the table, tapping his fingers: "Okay, let's not talk about him for now."
"Yesterday, you did not attend the court. Papa handed me another letter on the spot. Wutu wanted to sign a trade contract with me."
At this point, Emperor Jing snorted coldly: "The condition is that I, Great Jing, will send 200,000 taels of silver to Beirong every year, and Beirong will give back 1,000 cattle and sheep."
"From then on, the two countries agreed to be brotherly countries, set up a market for mutual trade, never invade each other, and support each other."
Thousands of cattle and sheep for two hundred thousand taels of silver? Wutu is quite creative!
Dajing is not a defeated country, and you still want to trade so much. What are you showing off about?
So damn confusing!
Fang Zheng thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. He hesitated and said, "I don't know anything about military affairs. Why is Wutu so arrogant? Is Beirong... very strong?"
Emperor Jing nodded and said, "When I ascended the throne, the Northern Rong had already fallen into civil war, but my late emperor fought against them twice and lost both times."
"The strength of Beirong's cavalry is beyond comparison with Dajing's. Wutu relies on his cavalry."
Fang Zheng suddenly realized and continued, "I see. However, I think the benefits of trade to Dajing far exceed 200,000 taels! Even ten times more! We must make this deal!"
"We have a lot of products in Dajing that we can sell to Beirong in exchange for the cattle, sheep, and horses we need. And all we need are cattle and horses!"
"In the early days, the Northern Rong will follow the rules and exchange war horses for resources, but as time goes on, they will definitely not sit idly by and watch the Dajing cavalry be trained."
"By then, Beirong's war horses will not flow into Dajing, and Dajing is almost unilaterally selling goods to Beirong! A huge amount of wealth will flow into the country!"
"Paba's desire to trade is very strong, the court can talk to them."
"However, the two hundred thousand taels of silver per year...I think it is still open to discussion."
Emperor Jing said: "Yes, you said it very well. Master Zheng and you agree."
"But I didn't expect Wutu to be so rampant! Could it be that he is bullying us because we have no one in Dajing?"
Fang Zheng was silent.
In fact, two hundred thousand taels is nothing. It is mainly a matter of face.
Emperors are all people who care about their reputation, and it is really embarrassing to write about them in history books.
But once the two countries start trading, the benefits will be huge!
Beirong is simply a commercial desert. Although Dajing has always emphasized agriculture and suppressed commerce, its level of commercial development is far from that of Beirong.
