Chapter 466

After Wei Hao came up, Li Ke asked Wei Hao why he was so desperate.

"No one knows how to repair the bridge. There is no way. By the way, what happened to your matter?" Wei Hao smiled bitterly and asked Li Ke.

"Father agreed, I guess you came up with this plan, right?" Li Ke stared at Wei Hao and asked.

"I don't have this ability. Father's own idea. Father is staring at the northwest. It's not a day or two for the north and the northeast. Before, we were poor in Tang Dynasty and couldn't fight, but we only need to give Datang another year or two. It is still possible to fight a war of extermination,

Then it depends on who is unlucky, whether it is Tubo or Tuyuhun who is unlucky first, or Turkic, but the Northeast is not good enough, we are not prepared enough there, and we need to wait until the strength of Datang is stronger. And after a battle, it is estimated that he will need to rest for three to five years, otherwise, the national strength will not be able to bear it! " Wei Hao said to Li Ke, and Li Ke nodded.

"Success, thank you so much!" Li Ke said to Wei Hao, who cupped his hands. Wei Hao smiled, and then said, "You want to talk about this specifically?"

"Well, I really want to thank you. Before I went to you, I didn't dare to think that there would be such a good result. In addition, my father also said that I want my father to learn from your style of doing things. If you say you are lazy, you are lazy. , but once you decide to do something, you must do it well. This time to build the bridge, the father said that as soon as he heard it, he would support you to repair it, saying that you can definitely repair it!" Li Ke nodded and looked at the bridge. Wei Hao said with a smile,
Hearing this, Wei Hao couldn't help but smiled wryly and said: "Anyway, Father wants me to be busy every day, but it's fine. After I finish the work on these two bridges, I guess there will be nothing to do. Once I'm on the right track, I don't need to worry about it anymore. The rest is up to you. I don't want to be an official anymore. Look at me in the past few years. No one is better than me. Tired!

"That's impossible, I guess the father won't agree!" Li Ke laughed when he heard what Wei Hao said.

"It doesn't matter whether he agrees or not, I'll just hang up my seal and go!" Wei Hao also became happy. At that time, he still cared about this, so he just quit.

Then Li Ke and Wei Hao chatted for a while, Li Ke went back, Wei Hao continued to stare here,

In the evening, Wei Hao went to Juxian Building. Today, we made an appointment to see Lu Dongzan. Wei Hao went first, went directly to his own box, and then sat there drinking tea. After a while, Wei Chen brought Lu Dongzan Thank you.

"Shen Yong!" After Wei Chen came in, he called Wei Hao first.

"Well, brother!" Wei Hao nodded, and then Wei Chen introduced the two of them.

"I have been admiring your name for a long time, and everyone said that Tubo's prime minister is very talented. Songtsan Gampo relies entirely on your talent, otherwise, he would not be able to control Tubo!" Wei Hao said with a smile and compliment.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, but Xia Guogong's name, I often heard it in Tubo, saying that Xia Guogong was young and talented, and did a lot of things for the Tang Dynasty, including paper and porcelain, which were all made by Xia Guogong. Admiration, admiration! " Tubo also quickly complimented.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Come, please sit down and drink tea!" Wei Hao smiled and beckoned Lu Dongzan to sit down. Whether it is the people on my side or the officials who went to visit Datang, they all said that as long as Wei Hao can be persuaded, there is no problem with this matter.

"Come, have a taste!" Wei Hao said to Lu Dongzan, and Lu Dongzan nodded quickly.

"Shen Yong, there is another situation under me, that is, some colleagues invite me to dinner, why don't you chat?" Wei Chen said to Wei Hao and the others at this moment.

"Oh, please?" Wei Hao asked immediately.

"Well, it's probably a matter in the county. What do you want me to do for you? Plus, you used to work in the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so you can't go there!" Wei Chen nodded, but actually wanted to leave here on purpose, so It was so convenient for Wei Hao and Lu Dongzan to talk.

"Please invite someone else, come!" Wei Hao said.

"Young master!" A girl came in immediately outside.

"Brother will invite someone to dinner later, arrange a better private room, and besides, count it on my account!" Wei Hao said to the girl, the girl knew what it meant when she heard it, Wei Hao didn't have any account at all, so come on your own If you eat at home, you can still have a bill,

The point is, now Wei Hao doesn't come here very often, as long as Wei Hao has been here, the people in the kitchen behind will be very happy, that is when Wei Hao tastes their craftsmanship, only when Wei Hao nods, that dish is considered a pass up!
"Okay, eldest son, please follow me!" the girl said to Wei Chen.

"President, I will take my leave first, sorry!" Wei Chen immediately said to Lu Dongzan,
Lu Dongzan also quickly stood up and bowed to him. He knew Wei Chen well. Wei Chen was on Wei Hao's side and had a high status. Wei Hao was called Wei Chen's elder brother.

After Wei Chen left, Lu Dongzan also sat down.

"Let's get straight to the point. I just hope that my Tang army can gather in Tuyuhun?" Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and asked.

"Ah, um, yes, I don't know if Xia Guogong can help?" Lu Dongzan said it directly when he heard Wei Hao really, a bit uncomfortable, he also met a lot of officials in the Tang Dynasty, and no one had ever been so direct.

"Yes, but what price can you Tubo pay?" Wei Hao nodded, looked at Lu Dongzan and asked.

"Ah?" Lu Dongzan was even more surprised. He came up to negotiate?

"You and I both have limited time. As for my character, you can inquire about it. I can do what I promised, but I don't know you very well. You asked me to send troops to gather in Tuyuhun. Who will pay for the military expenses?
Second, once Tuyuhun feels the pressure and launches an attack on our Datang army, who will bear the loss?If you solve these two problems, I will solve the problem of Tuyuhun for you, and ensure that my Tang Dynasty can gather 5 troops in Tuyuhun, and there are still 10 troops on the second line, so as to create the illusion that Tuyuhun is going to attack and let them send people How about coming to Datang to negotiate? "Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and said.

"Xia Guogong, have fun!" Lu Dongzan couldn't help giving Wei Hao a thumbs up, so that the cooperation will be refreshing.

"However, there is no precedent for this. You Tang Dynasty is so powerful, you still need such a little money?" Lu Dongzan immediately put on his high hat.

"Hey, I said you, you are talking to me, not my father, you talk to me, my father will naturally not ask you for these, and other ministers will not ask for these Yes, but can you guarantee that Datang's army will go there?
I have negotiated the conditions with you, and I will go to the father and tell the father to give your conditions to the father. When the father hears it, well, it is almost done, and it is enough to send troops to go, understand?This money is not wanted by my father, nor by Datang, but by me. I need to use this to convince my father, understand? " Wei Hao looked at Lu Dongzan helplessly and explained.

"Oh, I got it, I got it!" Lu Dongzan only understood what was going on at this moment, and then became confused again.

"This, you help me so much, this?" Lu Dongzan looked at Wei Hao suspiciously.

"Make it clear, I'll take half of it, and I'll take extra. If you give Datang 100 million guan, I'll take 5 guan. This is my benefit fee!" Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and said,
Lu Dongzan nodded quickly, which is reasonable, otherwise he would really doubt why Wei Hao helped him.

"Well, I am poor in Tubo, and I may not be able to spend much money!" Tubo immediately told Wei Hao that he was poor, and he agreed with Wei Hao's method in his heart. If Datang really kept his word, then the money was worth it. Instead, he was worried about taking the money.

"Then you can figure it out and think for yourself!" Wei Hao smiled after hearing this, but remained silent.

"Do you think this will work? 20 yuan?" Lu Dongzan looked at Wei Hao and said.

"How much?" Wei Hao looked at Lu Dongzan in shock.

"Here, 30 yuan?" Lu Dong praised Wei Hao when he saw this, and knew that he didn't like Wei Hao. Wei Hao's family had money, and he knew that Wei Hao paid for the palace that is being built now.

"Okay, drink tea, drink tea, there is no righteousness in business, ah!" Wei Hao immediately greeted Lu Dongzan and said, when Lu Dongzan heard this, he was in a hurry.

"Here, 50 guan, this is the limit of our Tubo. It is really the limit. If it is not enough, I, I, I have nothing to do!" Lu Dongzan gritted his teeth and said to Wei Hao at this moment.

"No, are you Tubo so poor?" Wei Hao looked at Lu Dongzan in disbelief and said.

"It's really poor. In the past two years, those of us in Tubo have bought those things from your Tang Dynasty. Those things are expensive. A lot of grain, cattle and sheep from our side have been sold to your Datang. You see, otherwise, we would not have allowed the merchants of Tang Dynasty to enter Tubo!" Lu Dong said, looking at Wei Hao with admiration.

"So poor? Hey!" Wei Hao also sighed.

"Xia Guogong, this matter still needs to trouble you. Please help me because the two countries need to get along well! I will give you 5 guan, will it work?" Lu Dongzan said to Wei Hao.

"I don't care anymore, I'm not short of this little money, hey!" Wei Hao continued to sigh, looking as if hesitating.

"Xia Guogong, everyone said that you are benevolent and righteous. I also hope to make this friend with you, so I can help you this time!" Lu Dongzan begged Wei Hao again.

"Let me try it. The money is indeed too little. I am afraid that my father will scold me. The people of Tang Dynasty know that I have never done a loss-making business, but this time, I am really going to lose money.
You know, to mobilize an army of 5, there are 10 troops behind, how can 50 yuan be enough, and we still need to be prepared to fight if Tuyuhun counterattacks us, the entire budget is estimated to exceed 200 million, you just, eh ! "Wei Hao looked at Lu Dongzan and said helplessly.

"Here, I'm sorry to trouble you. Really, help me. Many people say that in Datang, you are the one who can convince the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. I ask for your help in this matter." Lu Dongzan turned to Wei Hao Arched his hands and said.

"Okay, but there is one thing I need to make clear. Our troops have passed, but if Tuyuhun is not afraid of us, he will still attack you. We will not attack. Make this point clear. After all, Tuyuhun is in the local area. , Our army is going on an expedition, their strength must be more than this, right?" Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and asked.

"Naturally, Tuyuhun has a force of 20. If we want to recruit all the strong men, it is estimated that there will be about 50. But I guess, they will not do this! After all, Datang's army is right next to them, so it is impossible for them not to take precautions." !" Lu Dongzan thought about it, and said to Wei Hao,

Datang and Tuyuhun had fought several times, and it was impossible for the two countries to cooperate. Therefore, Lu Dong predicted that as long as Datang's army passed by, then Tuyuhun's army would definitely not dare to move.

"Okay, that's good. I don't know much about things in the Northwest. Don't say at that time that Tuyuhun's army will attack you if you pay for it. If you blame me, then I will be wronged." Already!" Wei Hao said with confidence at the moment.

"No, Tuyuhun's army has already fought against your Great Tang many times! They still want to expand eastward, otherwise, your Great Tang's army would not have put so many there!" Lu Dong Zan said, and Wei Hao nodded when he heard it.

"Come on, drink tea. I will enter the palace tomorrow. However, I can't do it alone. You need to let other people talk about it. When the time comes, there will be so many ministers agreeing to it." Yes, Father will agree if he has one, remember this matter!" Wei Hao said to Lu Dongzan.

"Okay, I know what to do about this!" Lu Dongzan said reassuringly.

"Hey, by the way, I want to ask you something, that is, the Jieri Dynasty to the south of you, is there a large population? Is this country rich?" Wei Hao asked Lu Dongzan.

"Huh? Why did Duke Xia ask about the Jieri Dynasty?" Lu Dongzan looked at Wei Hao suspiciously. The Jieri Dynasty had no connection with the Tang Dynasty, so why Wei Hao asked about this country.

"Hey, I just want to do some business. You know, I have a lot of workshops. I heard that the Shari Dynasty and Sasanian Persia are very powerful, but I don't know if their country has money. If they have money, they can do business! "Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and said.

"Here, the Jieri Dynasty is very powerful. It's just that we Tubo are on top. It is difficult for them to attack us, but it is also difficult for us to attack the Jieri Dynasty. They have an elephant army and a large population.

However, the people are still very poor, but they will not starve to death. They have a lot of farmland, but those nobles are very rich, and those temples are also very rich. In fact, we also do business with them in Tibet, just saying , we don't have very good stuff! "As soon as Lu Dongzan heard what Wei Hao said, he briefly talked to Wei Hao about the Jieri Dynasty.

"I have something. Otherwise, how about we make money together? I will be responsible for sending the goods to Tubo, and you will be responsible for sending them to Jieri Dynasty for sale. There are two ways. I will add [-]% to the purchase price and sell the goods. Here I am, I don't care how much you sell them, the second is, I will give you the goods and send someone to buy them, and we will split the money in half, how about it?" Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and said excitedly,

Wei Hao just wants to fight against the Jieri Dynasty. The land in this place is really good. When Tubo is defeated, the Jieri Dynasty can be completely controlled. In the future, this land will belong to the Tang Dynasty, and the people will not will starve to death.

"This, can it work?" Lu Dongzan stared at Wei Hao and said in disbelief.

"Why, look down on this little money, I'm not bragging with you, if you let my people sell it, hehe, this is the least amount in a year!" Wei Hao gave a thumbs up and said to Lu Dongzan.

"One hundred thousand?" Lu Dongzan looked at Wei Hao carefully and said.

"No, you look down on me, don't you? I'll ask you to cooperate for 100 yuan, [-] million, the minimum!" Wei Hao said to Lu Dongzan angrily.

"Is this so much?" Lu Dongzan was a little dumbfounded at the moment, so much money?

"Do you want to do it? If you don't, I'll find someone else to do it, please. The other Sassanid Persia is also very rich and can be sold. Two countries, not much to say, 200 million yuan a year, hey , if you have this income, in Tubo, you have the final say on everything!" Wei Hao continued to seduce Lu Dongzan, which really made Lu Dongzan very attentive.

"Well, it's not easy to settle accounts between the two of us in partnership!" Lu Dongzan then said to Wei Hao.

"The first type?" Wei Hao stared at Lu Dongzan and asked, Lu Dongzan was a little embarrassed.

"You, you, you are so greedy, you, your uncle!" Wei Hao pointed at Lu Dong and began to scold.

"It's really hard to settle accounts!" Lu Dongzan looked at Wei Hao feeling a little embarrassed at the moment.

"Okay, okay, I knew I wouldn't tell you so much!" Wei Hao said with a bit of regret at the moment.

"Don't worry, if you make money, I will definitely not forget your share. I know that in Datang, you can get any goods you want immediately!" Lu Dongzan said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, come on, let's eat, come here, the food is served, I'm hungry!" Wei Hao shouted to the outside as he spoke, and a welcome guest came in immediately.

"Serve!" Wei Hao said to the welcome guest.

"Okay, my lord, I'll be up right away!" The welcome guest went out immediately,

After a while, a trolley came in. There were several layers of trolleys, all of which were covered with vegetables.

Lu Dongzan was dumbfounded looking at those dishes. He had never eaten at Juxian Building before. He had always heard that the food in Juxian Building was the best. When he saw it today, he just looked at the style of the food. It's amazing enough.

"My lord, the food is ready and the wine is ready, please move!" A welcoming guest came over and said to Wei Hao.

"Okay, let's go to eat, by the way, there are still some details to discuss!" Wei Hao said to Lu Dongzan.

"Hey, good!" Lu Dongzan nodded at this moment, and then walked towards the dining table, and after arriving at the dinner table, the welcome guests began to pour wine for Lu Dongzan and Wei Hao.

"Okay, you guys go out, we will come here by ourselves!" Wei Hao said to those welcoming guests.
