Chapter 250 The final influence of butterfly wings
Speaking of which, the culprit that caused the Liao Kingdom to suddenly demand an increase in annual tribute and the civil and military quarrels between the Great Zhou Dynasty was Chen Buer who was eating a meal in Pan's mansion at this time.
His small action, like a butterfly wing, will accidentally change a period of history.
The Xijin Prefecture, which he bombed, was the Nanjing City of Liao Kingdom.
There are five capitals in the Liao Kingdom.
They are Shangjing Linhuang Prefecture (now Lindong Town, Balin Zuo Banner, Inner Mongolia), Zhongjing Dading Prefecture (now Ningcheng County, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia), Tokyo Liaoyang Prefecture (now Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province), Nanjing Xijin Prefecture (Beijing City), and Xijing Datong Prefecture (now Datong City, Shanxi Province).
Looking at the geographical locations of these five capitals from a modern perspective, I will know that Inner Mongolia and Northeast China, plus Shanxi (not yet the matchmaker’s boss at this time), what kind of misfortune is it?
These four northern capitals are underdeveloped, with insufficient taxes and insufficient oil and water, making it difficult to maintain the huge expenses of an empire.
To make money, it depends on the Han people. Where there are many Han people in the Liao Dynasty, there is only the "Nanjing Xijin Prefecture" under the jurisdiction of the King of the Nanyuan.
Xijin was considered to be the Shenzhen Special Zone of China in the 1980s. Its economy was developed and it was an important foreign exchange window and a place to earn foreign exchange.
The Liao Dynasty was in a poor place with ice and snow, and the weather was cold and difficult to cultivate. In addition, the nomadic peoples rode horses and drank wine every day and did not know how to do business. There was only a rich neighbor in the Zhou Dynasty around them. Therefore, the Liao Dynasty's finances relied heavily on the trade with Zhou between Xijin Prefecture and Suzhou Port.
Xijin Prefecture is a land trade transit station, and also has a sea trade center Suzhou Port (now Dalian City).
As a result, these two important foreign trade export sites were all blown up by Chen Buer.
Xijin Prefecture, a prosperous capital with a population of more than 300,000 people, suffered "heavenly punishment" that night and was struck by lightning, killing and injuring more than 100,000 Liao people.
Not only were there many people dead, but the shops, government offices and houses in the city were almost completely burned by a fire.
It can be said that this Liao Dynasty Nanjing was completely destroyed by Chen Buer's bombing and it was difficult to recover in a short period of time.
You should know that when Chen Buer blew up the city, in summer, tens of thousands of corpses piled up in the city and became stinking and rotten. How could a plague not occur?
Rebuilding a capital city, even if it is a capital city, then how much it costs is an astronomical figure.
Back then, Zhu Yuanzhang had to rely on the funding of major landlords such as Shen Wansan to build the capital, not to mention the poor Liao Kingdom, which was completely unbearable to the Liao Kingdom's finances.
Not only in terms of economy, if the Xijin Prefecture is not protected, the Liao Kingdom's army on the Great Surrounding Frontier will be unstable, because there is not enough material and logistical support to provide it, then this will be very fatal to the Liao Kingdom.
So this Xijin Mansion is not a question of whether you want to pay for rebuilding it, but it must be rebuilt from a strategic perspective.
As for Suzhou Port, the loss is even heavier.
Chen Buer couldn't see anything that night, so he was just blowing around.
Not only did all the ships in the Liao Kingdom in the port sank, but all the export goods such as wood, medicinal materials and other exports accumulated at the port, and all the fires in Suzhou City were burned away.
The northern nomads were originally not good at building ships, but now they have nothing. Even if they want to do business, they will have no ships to go to sea.
This will take the life of the Liao court. The Liao Dynasty has been in existence for more than a hundred years, and the upper class Liao people have long been Chineseized. They are no longer heroes who bend their bows and shoot eagles. They are all fat heads and ears, and they are greedy for enjoyment.
Now suddenly the two "grape pots" are destroyed and there is no money. What should I do?
So, I sent envoys to Dazhou to ask for money. In their eyes, Dazhou was just a fat sheep.
Yelu Dedu said one thing is right. Anyway, the Great Zhou Dynasty cannot meet the requirements of the Liao Kingdom, so the rest is war, and they will rob it themselves.
The new King of the Southern Court, Yelu Ming, is a staunch war pro-war faction and radical right-wing element. He wishes to go to Bianliang City today to grab grain, money and women.
But Chen Buer didn't know how much trouble he had caused.
Pan Mansion Lunch
Chen Buer could no longer be arrogant, so he lowered his head and kept his slaughter. It would be better that no one could see him.
Everyone in the table was born in a medical family, and everyone's topics on the table revolve around medical and medical skills. Chen Buer was not against traditional Chinese medicine. The problem was that he didn't understand "Traditional Medicine" and had never learned it in his previous life.
Everyone felt funny when they saw Chen Buer eating without saying a word.
That sense of superiority has finally come back. Who doesn’t know that this young master Chen is famous for being ignorant and ignorant, and it is said that he can’t even write well.
But as a man, especially his future brother-in-law, everyone is more generous and does not make things difficult for him.
If Chen Buer really can't get out of Taiwan, he has already shown his strength. When Jingshitang becomes popular, who will target them, then there will be good results?
So what if you are a wealthy business like the Sun family? It’s not only yours that have it. Jingshitang is the big customer. If you don’t come to your Sun family’s medicine shop in the future, what can you do?
Pharmaceutical merchants all need to flatter the doctor.
After dinner, Pan Mingyue personally sent Chen Buer out of the house. Chen Buer greatly increased her face today, and the little girl was happy.
"Brother Qi, thank you today, haha, it's so funny to see the second sister and second brother-in-law's defeated look."
"Hey, what are you grateful for? I hate people who show off the most. If you want to pretend, I can only allow me to pretend."
"Then you pretended to be quite successful today. I didn't see that my second sister's face changed. In previous years, she was the most talked and liked to compare with others."
“Hahaha~~~~~”
Both of them were in a good mood, and they felt like they were getting on the moon and making an appointment after dusk.
What Chen Buer thought in his heart was that if he could get into the woods, kiss his mouth, and hold his hands at this time, it would be like falling in love, and now it is more like getting along with friends.
If this was in the previous life, let alone engaged men and women, how many people would open a room and get out of bed sheets after they met less than a month?
"By the way, Brother Qi, I will give you a surprise in a few days."
"Oh? What surprise? Could it be Xi to be a father?"
Pan Mingyue's little face turned red: "You will talk nonsense!"
Chen Buer scratched his head awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I've read too many online jokes, by the way, what surprises are you?"
"Hehe, I won't tell you, you'll know then."
"If you don't tell me, I won't tell you. Then I'll go home. By the way, you can pack these four marten coats and give them to your parents, as well as your elder brother and sister-in-law. Anyway, I have so many such coats, so they can keep them with peace of mind."
Pan Mingyue blinked her big eyes, and suddenly a very young girl asked in admiration:
"Brother Qi, you are so awesome. It seems that your wealth is far above my second brother-in-law. How much money and assets do you have now?"
"Hahaha, that's it, I'm now..."
Chen Buer suddenly realized something and immediately shut up, "Hehe, I won't tell you, don't try to mess with me, I'll leave."
