During the Northern Song Dynasty, about four or five hundred tea merchants, led by a leader named Lai, launched an uprising in Hubei, entered Guangdong through Hunan and Jiangxi, were stopped, and returned to Jiangxi from Guangdong.
This army of tea merchants, mostly composed of outlaws, was besieged and intercepted by local government forces, but it repeatedly defeated the government forces, walked through the mountains of Jiangxi, and wandered between several regions, which became a big headache for the Southern Song Dynasty court.
It was in this case that Xin Qiji was put into use by the court on the recommendation of Ye Heng.
After handing over the job of Dr. Kurabe and arranging the family size, Xin Qiji arrived in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province in early July after a long journey of 1600 miles, and quickly began to deal with Lai's affairs.
He gave full play to the role of villagers who were familiar with the terrain in Chenzhou, Guiyang, Anfu and Yongxin, and selected elite soldiers and sent them to areas where the army of tea merchants was active. All important checkpoints, intersections and mountain passes are guarded by special personnel, cutting off the activity channel of the tea merchants' army.
At the same time, a large number of local people were sent as the eyes and ears of the government forces, and outposts and mobile personnel were arranged everywhere to collect news about the activities of the tea merchants. In addition, the mobile forces specially formed by government forces will follow closely and wait for an opportunity to attack once they find the dynamics of tea merchants.
As a result, the mobility characteristics that tea merchants are best at are contained, the scope of activities is compressed, and the fate is completely in the hands of the government. Seeing that this general trend has gone, the army of tea merchants soon showed the intention of being embraced.
Xin Qiji sent officials to negotiate in time and promised to make meritorious deeds and make amends, and let bygones be bygones. At this time, only one or two hundred tea merchants knew the attitude of the government, and most of them expressed their willingness to cooperate with the government. When Zheng Wen saw this, he had to show off. He also secretly thought that he might save his life, so he led the people to surrender.

Original text:
The setting sun is boundless, calm and the sails are weak. Remember, flirting, beauty. Tired guests don't know where they are, and the beauty has already replied. Then he came back, just to give a cloud and help the king.
Some things, how to get them. If you know there is hatred, don't remember it. But chutian is special, and the clouds at dusk are bright. Everything that passes by is not going well. Nine times out of ten, my head is white today. Laughing at Jiangzhou, Sima is too affectionate and blue and wet.
Translation:
Twilight is boundless and calm, and a solitary boat is weakly moored by the river. I still remember the happy past, just like the beautiful scenery. You were hit hard, you didn't know what was happening around you, and the beautiful woman left you. Even if the beauty comes back, it is only a dream of Gao Tang and Fu Xingyun, and it is only a dream, not a reality.
Don't worry about those little things. It's no use crying over spilt milk. Let bygones be bygones. But Chutian only shows the sunset glow attached to the blue sky. In life, there are few successes and many failures. This has been the case since ancient times. Don't worry about turning white. Laugh at your deep affection and get soaked.
