This book, compiled by Han Xue, contains simple learning content based on Arabic numerals and Chinese pinyin. Those who are smart enough can learn it in just one month. Those with some qualifications can learn to reconcile accounts and become directors after being taught some simple characters. These are the future business backbones.

After seeing the secret letter sent by Han Chou to the border and learning the news of the old emperor's death, Gu Zhao locked himself in the house for a day and led his 50,000 elite troops that had been trained for a month to attack the imperial city along the route the Tatars took to enter the pass. He killed any bandits who tried to take advantage of the situation along the way.

The once gentle and humble crown prince returned to the imperial city as a killing god.

Several forces were competing in the court, the Tatar army had occupied the palace and was still wreaking havoc, the royal family and the aristocratic families were only concerned with fighting for power and profit, and no one was willing to fight the Tatars head-on.

The Tatar army guarded the palace and acted recklessly. Whenever a noble family stood up, they would lead their troops to wreak havoc. The former Han Mansion had long been reduced to ashes, and the puppet Han Yuan and his servants were all gone.

Fortunately, when he left Beijing, he sent Han Xue and his son to the tomb for burial.

That was a secret passage known only to the heir to the throne of the Gu family. It contained enough food and water to sustain his wife and children for half a year, ensuring their safety.

Han Chou took advantage of the chaos in the court and sent the families of the Han family army to Hancheng through the trade route.

Now he leads hundreds of guards to return to the capital secretly to cooperate with Gu Zhao to seize the throne. The most important thing is to collect the unowned property.

Nearly 80% of the Dayong families had descendants remaining in the capital. The Tatars' rampage had most severely impacted the smaller and medium-sized families. Larger families like the Wang, Xie, Chen, and Su families, which had their own guards, had not been significantly affected.

These aristocratic families, having survived for hundreds or even thousands of years, had their own set of rules for survival. Serving the country and the people took precedence over the survival of the family. The younger direct descendants of the clan were also secretly sent out of the capital to the safety of their ancestral home.

When Han Chou heard the news from Qiuqiu, he was angry but also felt it was natural.

It was the reborn Wang Chenxi who was still alive and well. When the direct descendants of the Wang family were sent away, she actively participated and took the opportunity to gain greater power.

Now the Wang family's troops are in her hands.

As for the eldest son Gu Hong who was left behind, he hid secretly in the Wang family. After all, Gu Hong was deliberately spoiled by the old emperor for many years. The Wang family also wanted to support a puppet emperor with no talent to take the throne. As long as Gu Hong was guaranteed to be alive and well, it would be better not to teach him how to be a monarch.

A fool emperor is more easily controlled by the aristocratic families. Compared with Gu Zhao who has 50,000 Han family troops under his command, Gu Hong is indeed vulnerable.

Han Chou hid in the ruins of the Han family and said angrily: "I will go to the Wang family's old house and steal all the treasures they have collected for thousands of years.

I never expected that my father would kill Wang Quan, and the Wang family would take advantage of the chaos to burn down the Han family. Fortunately, Han Yuan, who stayed in the mansion, was a puppet. If he were the real Han Yuan, he would definitely be burned to death!

Qiuqiu checked the causal connection: "The Han family's fire was caused by the Wang family. Since they took action, it's only right that you collect some compensation! You are setting up factories all over the country now. Are you short of funds?"

Han Chou touched his nose embarrassedly: "Ancestor, it's a little insufficient."

Qiuqiu was surprised: "After looting the two royal families of Qiang and Tatar, we still don't have enough money to open a factory."

Han Chou took out a booklet, and Qiuqiu took a look at it. It was indeed a bit radical to build 203 large processing workshops at the same time. Doesn't this mean there is no time to take it slowly?

Qiuqiu saw his melancholy and said, "I'll show you the way. Go and steal the treasures of the Wang and Chen families. You were seriously injured when you first arrived, and it was the Chen family who did it. The Su family's granary is in the south, so it's not easy to steal."

Han Chou immediately revived on the spot, having already forgotten about the Chen family who were chasing him: "We will go to the south tomorrow and ask them to borrow some food."

Qiuqiu: "Alright, you can only lend to those who have a karmic connection with you and are tainted with sin. You can't touch those innocent people."

Han Chou: "After we steal the things, we can clearly write down the crimes of the bad guys and publish them. Do you think this is okay?"

Qiuqiu: "Okay, this can be considered a chivalrous thief."

Han Chou has been practicing Qinggong desperately recently. Could it be that he wants to steal things?

The rewards given by Qiuqiu are not so attractive recently, and there are not many mortal daily necessities left in her space.

Alas, the rewards cannot be given out now. Han Chou worked hard to complete three tasks and made a request, wanting a high-level Qinggong technique.

Qiuqiu thought about it and agreed. He worked hard to complete the task every day. This small request was not excessive, and as the "ancestor", he must satisfy it.

Han Xue, who was even busier, also wanted a reward: "Just give me some fruit to replenish my energy!" The Pei Yuan Dan her second brother had given her helped her quickly recover to her peak health. After all, research requires physical strength, and she had just come out of confinement.

Han Shu, who is waiting to log off: After taking the elixir given by his ancestors, he feels that he can rob the Tatar royal court once more.

The braised meat made from 3,000 cattle and sheep was shipped to the south in exchange for a lot of food, so the 150,000-strong army in Hancheng could survive for a while longer.

Han Hen: Thanks to the miracle medicine called penicillin sent by my second brother, 80% of the wounded soldiers carried down from the battlefield survived.

Han Hen wanted to continue expanding his territory eastward. After all, more and more military dependents were gathering in Tang City, and he felt that the territory was not enough.

It’s better to expand the territory quietly. No need to ask, the answer is strategic need.

The Han family is worthy of being called the God of War family of the Northern Frontier. All of their members are experts in killing enemies in the battlefield. In just two months, the area occupied by the Han family is larger than that of the Qiang State.

The newly produced sea salt was exchanged with the Mongolian herders for horses, cattle and sheep. With the Jin Kingdom in the way, the next goal was to conquer this nearby land and trade directly with the Mongolian Kingdom.

The second son, Han Chou, suggested that they use some of their scarce salt to exchange for a large number of cattle, sheep, and horses, and preferably some medicinal herbs. He could also bring back the worthless wool, weave it into clothes, and then sell it to them at a hundred times the price.

Han Hen felt his scalp tingling when he thought of his second brother's cunning smile. He had better continue to build the wool processing factory next to the Heihe River.

The wool is washed by the Black River. The turbid river water makes the land more fertile. This is what my sister said, and it must be right. The smartest person in their Han family is not grandpa, but my sister.

Han Chou had the "ball" cheat, so he had no trouble sneaking into the Wang family's secret room. However, there wasn't the rich treasures he'd imagined. Not even a single storage talisman was full.

"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. They are a wealthy family, and this secret room is just on the surface. This is the result of a large part of it being taken away."

"Where is the Wang family's treasure house?"

"I don't know either. I can only determine the general location after I know it."

On the way to Chen's house, Qiuqiu suddenly called him: "Whose house is that courtyard without a plaque?"
