Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 403 The Wrath of Your Young Master

If Dugu Lan didn't go with Liu Mu, she would stay and host a banquet for Kinderman, and then take Kinderman to the Jinghe market.

Liu Mu stood at the bow, and his boat could not enter the dock for a long time.

Looking at the dense and long line of boats in front of him, Willow has a headache.

I saw one person jumping from the pier to one boat after another in line, and then came to Liumu’s boat by a small boat patrolling the river. After getting close, Liumu could see it clearly. The appearance of Mr. Pianpian.

At this time, Gao Xing's hair was disheveled, and the hat was thrown away without knowing where he just tied it with cloth strips, and then his silk clothes were torn, and he wore a fine linen coat that was waterproof and painted.

"Master Gao, this attire is probably a new fashion for noble sons in Chang'an City." Liu Mu clasped his fists with a smile.

"Just kidding, I'm going home today just saying I'm sick."

"Don't, don't, Brother Gao has worked hard." Liu Mu quickly changed his words.

Gao Xingcheng also quarreled with Liu Mu again, pointing to the pier lined with long dragons and said: "West of Chang'an, the merchants that are farthest down the river from Qingzhou. Then the south of Chang'an City from Fengshui to Weishui to here, and from Bashui to here." The Weishui is here. Do you know how many small boats from Huazhou come from the Weishui through the Guangtong Canal to the East Tongguan in Chang’an City?"

"Don't tell me, I don't want to know the numbers, it's probably a lot, a lot."

Gao Xing did not say the number, but said: "Jinghe Market South, the Weishui Wharf has been repaired halfway, and it cannot be used temporarily. During the period when His Royal Highness King Qin supervised the country, he gave you a piece of land that used to belong to the temple to you, Mr. Lang."

"There?"

Gao Xing didn't talk too much, he took out the map and showed it to Liu Mu.

There are lines drawn with red strokes on it, and the land in the circle is for willow.

"Great place, but it's going to cost a lot of money."

This is indeed a good place. Liumu now occupies the previously useless river beach, which is the triangular area at the confluence of the Jing River and the Wei River. Intersection.

On the map, what Li Shimin gave to Liu Mu was the original piece of land that was expanded seven miles westward.

Then it is south of the Weihe River, where the Weihe River and the Bahe River meet.From the map, the Weihe River and the Bahe River meet in a T shape, which is a triangle with two river corners.

Then row south for a full seven miles, three miles wide to the east of the Bahe River, and five miles wide to the west.

"I asked the hydraulic engineer of the Ministry of Industry to help me. The area where the Bahe River and the Weihe River meet, the five-mile section of the Bahe River, the waterway is hundreds of feet wide, and there is a shoal area in the west of the river. Taking advantage of the low water level in winter, if the water level is low in winter, if it is artificially If you dig five feet deep, there will be thousands of acres of water here, which can be used by ships to dock."

"Then dig. After the beginning of spring, move the original wharf on the side of the Wei to the east five miles, and expand it by ten times. Coins are not a problem, and the wharf needs to be repaired."

Gao Xun said in an interface: "Manpower is not a problem. If Mr. Lang is willing to ask for it, we can ask for another [-] young and strong monks within only four hundred miles around Chang'an."

"There are a lot of monks?"

"Fu Taishi is a ruthless person. According to him, there are too many one hundred and one left in the temple, and one thousand is enough. He has already written a letter asking for the repair of the Guangtong Canal and the cleaning of the west section of the Weishui River in Chang'an. If not He employs too many people, we can still get another [-] young men."

Hearing Gao Xing's words, Liu Mu was surprised: "Tell me, how many monks are there?"

"Current statistics show that there are about 30 people who are forcibly returned to vulgarity in the four hundred miles around Chang'an. Among them, 4 dunis have been sent to us, as well as a total of 11 monks. I will ask for another 20, which is a total of [-] people. No one thought that [-]% of the monks are young and strong, and less than [-]% are old and weak."

Liu Mu sighed: "It's all the disaster of war."

"It's all the fault of Hu Fa's evil words." This was the first time for Gao Xing to completely refute Liu Mu's words, and he didn't leave a single leeway.

"Don't mention these bald donkeys, talk about business."

The main business is the big and small things in the Jinghe market in the past few months.

As a result, after talking for an hour, the willows did not arrive at the dock. There were too many ships, and the laborers who loaded the ships on the dock doubled their wages and continued to work, which was still far from enough for the speed of the ships to come.

There was no way, Liu Mu had no choice but to change to a small boat, and then leaned against a shallow beach, and then built a road with wooden boards and stones, and then barely reached the shore.

As soon as his feet stepped on the solid ground, he saw a green suit approaching quickly.

Someone turned over and got off the horse, Liu Mu saw clearly that it was Ye Siniang, and it was Ye Siniang who seemed to be going out for some kind of banquet in a fancy dress.

"Lang Jun, I just got the news from the Ministry of Rites that Goguryeo and Baekje sent envoys to pay tribute. There is a very strange name on the list, no surname, called Princess Bao and 49 people in the entourage. The states in Liaodong have passed Fenzhou , arrived in Chang'an within four days. Then, headed by Jieli Khan, nineteen tribes paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty."

"Xieli?" Liu Mu didn't quite believe it: "How could this guy come to pay tribute."

"The Ministry of Rites copied a letter of credence for us. Jieli claims to be a country of brothers, younger brother Jieli!"

Liu Mu was so angry that he wanted to curse, so he quickly asked, "What did the saint say?"

"I don't know, the Ministry of Rites received the Goguryeo tribute letter yesterday, and received the tribute from the Liaodong ministries two days earlier. The affairs of the Liaodong ministries are not important, but after receiving Xieli's credential today, they quickly sent someone to inform us .”

Liu Mu frowned slightly.Ye Siniang hurriedly said after seeing it: "The people we sent haven't sent relevant news yet, and they will arrive soon. His Royal Highness Qin Wang is coming to Jingyang Wharf, and Fang and Du are also following. I will go with the Ministry of Rites to deliver the news, and I think there will be results soon."

Willow just nodded.

Right now, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty trusts them as the magician right guard, but...

Before Liu Mu could think about it, Ye Siniang said first, "The matter of the great sacrifice of the ancient gods and beasts may have spread to other places during the excavation. The saints will definitely be happy because of the tribute from all nations."

"That's right. It's you, why are you dressed so gorgeously?"

Ye Siniang held up her skirt and spun around: "Your Majesty, I don't know, today is the day I was entrusted. I went to the Ministry of Rites to get the canonized scroll, went to the Ministry of Officials to file for the record and received the seal, and then went to the Ministry of War to report my actions. Every female general in the Shence Right Guard is a fifth-rank female general. It's a pity that there is no armor!"

"Let Huayuan build you a set of light dress armor, but you are not allowed to touch that set."

Ye Siniang knew that Liu Mu had a set of extremely gorgeous women's armor in China. It can be said that no one had ever seen more than 30 female armors.

Ye Siniang hurriedly said: "That is for Her Royal Highness, who dares to touch it."
