? The closest road from Beijing to the northeast is to take this Jingzhou through the mountain customs and then enter the northeast.However, after Zhu Hongsan left Beijing, he immediately called Han Sanqiang of the forbidden guard and let him turn north to Yanqing.

Han Sanqiang is a soldier, the emperor's orders must be obeyed unconditionally, and immediately ordered the first troops to turn around, and the whole army went north to Yanqing.

Next to Zhu Hongsan was Chen Mingxia, the forerunner of the military aircraft office, who was very surprised to see the emperor giving such a strange order, and hurriedly asked, “Sh Majesty, go to Liaodong to go to the mountain customs recently, what to do in Yanqing?”

Zhu Hongsan smiled and said, “Haha, Mr. Chen is following, I want to make a small fortune!”

Chen Mingxia heard the emperor say so confused, the emperor is already rich in the world, what kind of wealth do you need to make?In addition to what wealth can be made to Yanqing, is it to rob the Mongols?But now the Ming Dynasty had a good relationship with the Mongols outside Guan, not to mention the Mongols who were poorer than the Han Chinese, and there was no other property except for some horses.But Chen Mingxia saw that Zhu Hong's mysterious appearance did not dare to ask more, and could not only follow the order.

Zhu Hongsan's team of 70,000 or 80,000 people, left Beijing after wandering for three days, came to Yanqing, to where Zhu Hongsan told Chen Mingxia's destination there, that is one of the nine sides of the Xuanfu town.

In order to deal with the threat of the north, from Liaodong to Ningxia, a total of nine towns were set up, called the nine-sided town, each town has a general army guard, tens of thousands of troops, these people are the main fighting force in the late Ming Dynasty, of course, most of these people surrendered to the Qing Dynasty after the Ming Dynasty, Gangnam massacres these border soldiers have a lot of help.

After Zhu Hongsan occupied Beijing, most of the general soldiers of Jiuzhen took refuge in the New Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Hongsan did not take a hard hand on these two or five children, but they cleaned up a few people's grievances, and everyone else retained their original jobs.

Xuanfu Town is one of the nine major towns, under the jurisdiction of the Great Wall east of the Yongguan four sea, Xida in the northeastern part of the western Suiyang Gao County of Xida, a thousand and twenty-three miles long.The geographical location is very important, second only to the general soldiers of thistle town on the front of Beijing, so Zhu Hongsan chose Zhao Liangdong when he chose the stationed general soldiers.

This Zhao Liangdong was one of the four generals of Hexi, and later calmed the chaos of San Francisco and Wei Xiaobao's big brother Zhao Liangdong.

Zhao Liangdong was originally a military household in Shaanxi, followed Hong Chengqun in Shaanxi, and followed Hong Chengcao in Liaodong, which is one of the iron rods of Hong Chengcai.However, Zhao Liangdong was captured by Zhu Hongsan after the death of Hong Chengcao, and naturally joined the New Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Hongsan immediately gave Xuanfu Town to his town after learning that this guy was Wei Xiaobao's big brother.

Zhao Liangdong was an old soldier in the Ming Dynasty, naturally knew the importance of Xuanfu Town, and after learning that the emperor trusted himself so much, he immediately cried and swore allegiance to Zhu Hongsan.In fact, Zhao Liangdong did not know that Zhu Hongsan did not look at Xuanfu Town, do not say that Xuanfu Town only more than 20,000 soldiers, that is, more than 200,000 eight flags were not the opponent of their own new army, so Zhu Hongsan as long as he firmly grasped the command of the new army, other local troops may not be handed over to the capable people to lead, but also harvest Zhao Liangdong's loyalty, why not?

After learning that the emperor was going to the palace, Zhao Liangdong hurried out of the city for fifty miles and knelt on the road to meet the emperor.

Zhu Hongsan rode on an immediate look at this famous traitor general, but Zhu Hongsan did not mean to kill Zhao Liangdong.Zhao Liangdong such a soldier is caught, they have done their best, what can you ask for these illiterate soldiers?Therefore, Zhu Hongsan is very generous to those traitor generals, such as horse success, Tao Guoqi, etc., one by one under Zhu Hong's three hands have been reused.

Zhu Hongsan looked at Zhao Liangdong and smiled, “Zhao General, get up!”This is the first time I’ve met you and talked!”

Zhao Liangdong did not dare to look up, stood up and leaned forward and asked, “Your majesty, at the end of the day, you will not receive the order of the military aircraft, so you are late to welcome, please your majesty forgive!”

"It doesn't matter to you, I was going to Liaodong this time, but suddenly I want to come to the government to do something, but also temporary intention!"

Zhao Liangdong did not know what the emperor was doing to the government, but he did not dare to ask, so he followed closely after the emperor's horse.

Because it is located at the border, the population is not large, and the entire Xuanfu only has more than 10,000 people, but because it is close to Mongolia, there are many business help.

Zhu Hongsan came to the city gate, saw that the merchants who were on their knees were all to and from Mongolia, and nodded and asked, "Zhao Liangdong, it seems that Xuanfu Town is doing well!"

Zhao Liangdong did not know what the emperor asked this meant, looked at the emperor's side of Chen Mingxia, after all, Chen Mingxia and he are full of old people, it is a little relationship.

Chen Mingxia listened to the emperor and quickly stood up for the emperor to explain: "Zhao General, you can rest assured that your majesty is only watching the prosperity of the Xuanfu road, and it does not mean anything!"

Zhao Liangdong listened to Chen Mingxia's explanation before he put his heart down, to know that although the court and Mongolia did not have a war, but in name and Mongolia is still an enemy country, and now the emperor saw the Xuanfu here in the big fanfare and Mongolia to do business, Zhao Liangdong naturally did not dare to answer casually.

However, now there is Chen Mingxia's explanation, Zhao Liangdong said: "Your Majesty, although the former Ming war propaganda has been greatly impacted, but the merchants are profit-seeking, the main war stops, will soon come back from the Xuanfu to go to Mongolia to business!"

Zhu Hongsan knew that the Ming Dynasty was a confused account of this kind of border trade, and the court could not collect much tax from the border trade, so this time to Propaganda was to turn this kind of private smuggling into a state act.

"Well, it seems that the business of Xuanfu is booming here, and I am ready to reopen the mutual market in Xuanfu, and Zhao Liangdong's work will be aggravated in the future!"

Zhao Liangdong heard the emperor say this, he has been here in Xuanfu for three years, in the past this kind of smuggling is sneaky, of course, as the general soldier Zhao Liangdong is naturally beneficial, but the benefits of the black money that have a bright tax.

"Shhhh, the end will ensure that as long as the border is open to each other, the scale of the merchant gang can be tripled!"Zhao Liangdong quickly expressed loyalty in front of the emperor.

Zhu Hongsan patted Zhao Liangdong's shoulder and smiled, "Well, I am ready to open three mutual markets on the nine sides, and this Xuanfu town will be handed over to you!"

Zhao Liangdong, a hiller eight, did not dare to imagine that he could be patted by the emperor on the shoulder, and now feels a few pounds, quickly kneeling to ensure that the mutual market clouds.

Zhu Hong nodded three times and said, “Okay, get up!I have heard that you have eight major business gangs in the Propaganda House, what Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku and others, they are experienced people, you must learn from them!"

Zhao Liangdong quickly replied: "Your Majesty, there are eight big business gangs, they are Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, Jin Liang Yu, Wang Dayu, Liang Guest, Tian Shenglan, Zhaitang, Huang Yunfa, they are now living in the Xuanfu, finally this will call them to worship His Majesty!"

Chinese merchants have never had a place, Zhao Liangdong let them come to see the emperor, which is really for their sake, with the emperor this amulet, these eight can be dangling on the ground of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Hongsan shook his hand and said, "No hurry, I am tired today, I have to rest in Xuanfu in the evening, tomorrow, I invite them to dinner at noon tomorrow, and ask them how they are doing business!"

Zhao Liangdong usually did not receive the money of these eight, and now can now be for the eight families to fight for the opportunity to eat with the emperor is naturally very happy, after the emperor Zhao Liangdong into the city to arrange a residence for the emperor, while going to the eight families to send a letter, and strive to receive a red envelope.

Seeing Zhao Liangdong enter the city, Chen Mingxia was very puzzled by the emperor's identity as such, why should a group of low-status businessmen eat.

"Your majesty, these merchants are low, why should your majesty condescend to eat with them?"Let Zhao Liangdong go and order them to be finished?”

Zhu Hong’s hands and thugs of his beard and smiled, “Hey, Mr. Chen, you don’t know, I and you said that a small fortune is on them!”

As soon as Chen Mingxia heard it, he understood that the emperor was coming to knock on the bamboo bar.However, it is also that Chen Mingxia's military aircraft department knows that the emperor's northern tour can be completely his own silver, do not engage in some means to collect some costs back, then do not lose!

Zhu Hongsan said with 10,000 brocades into the city, other personnel left outside the city, after all, Xuanfu is just a provincial-level city, really can not accommodate less than 70,000 or 80,000 people into the city.

Zhu Hongsan entered the city of course after entering the city, in fact, the original Xuanfu had an governor, but Zhu Hongsan will be the inspector, not in front of the kind of officials with the nature of the Qin Dynasty, so now the largest official here in the Xuanfu is the general soldier Zhao Liangdong, his chief is the governor of Tianjin.

The arrival of the emperor brought the whole area to a boil, especially after hearing that the emperor wanted to let go of the mutual market, all the big merchants around the Xuanfu gathered in the Xuanfu to prepare a share in this feast.As the head of the Xuanfu business, the eight people naturally want to occupy an important stake in this mutual market, but they are not worried, because Zhao General has just come to inform them that tomorrow the emperor invited them to eat, and want to ask about the problem of mutual market.

The eight owners came to the front of the general army house early the next day, not afraid of coming late and not eating, but the palace prison informed last night, today let them come earlier to learn the rituals of the palace.

Eating with the emperor is not free to eat, that set of etiquette down is enough for you to suffer, what to eat the dish first, see what the emperor said, what the emperor should say to you, how to kowtomy, etc., this morning's learning made the eight owners lose their heads, but think of seeing the emperor immediately, the heart is still very excited.

The royal banquet was located in the lobby of the General Military House, and as soon as the eight arrived, the eight people dressed in costume, under the leadership of the small eunuch, bowed their heads, walked briskly into the lobby, and then knelt on the ground to wait for the emperor to arrive.

A moment's kung fu drum sounded, first a bunch of garrison guards entered the lobby, stood around the lobby, and then listened to the footsteps, it seems that the emperor arrived.
