Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 753 Chen Ying Will Not Treat Her Cousin Badly (Part [-])
Chapter [-] Chen Ying will not treat his cousin badly

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying curiously and asked, "Tell me, what else is there?"

"In the land of the Western Regions, since ancient times, the folk customs have been tough, uninhibited, and not subject to the laws of the king!" Chen Ying said with a slight smile: "Our Tang Dynasty was newly merged into the Xizhou Road, and all ethnic groups and tribes had difficulty adapting to the laws of the Tang Dynasty for a while. "

Li Xiuning nodded.What Chen Ying said was taken seriously. Back then, the Qin State used Shang Yang to reform the law to seek strength, and the Great Qin ruled the country with the law. The people had already adapted to the strictness of the Qin law, so they felt fine.However, the six kingdoms of the Kanto region don’t take it seriously. They have been disorganized for hundreds of years, and they can’t adapt to the constraints of the Qin law. Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebelled, and the six countries responded.

This is the situation in the Western Regions now. With Chen Ying, the chief guard, Modao Army and Xiaocai Army in the Western Regions for a day, all tribes and tribes in the Western Regions dare not move. Zhi Jingrui is transferred back to Guanzhong, and all the tribes and tribes in the Western Regions will probably be like the six kingdoms of the Kanto at the end of Qin Dynasty, sparking a prairie fire!

Chen Ying went on to say, "I'm taking all the young and strong from all ethnic groups and tribes, and leading them to build roads, dredge ditches, build cities, and carry out various construction projects. The purpose is to make them adapt to the constraints of the law!"

Whether it is paving roads and bridges, or dredging ditches, what Chen should adopt is military control. Military law and the whip will teach them what can be done and what cannot be done.Of course, the most important thing is that Chen Ying did not exploit the various ethnic groups and tribes in the Western Regions for free, but provided paid services.All ethnic groups and tribes in the Western Regions have benefited from the benefits, and the young and strong who participated in the construction of the project received wages and, of course, money.After these young and strong people have money, they always have to make clothes for their families, or buy some salt and various daily necessities. The family fortune has also become prosperous.

The construction of roads stimulated the prosperity of commerce.Shipping goods and prices from Chang'an to Central and Western Asia is naturally different from Guanzhong Chang'an.For the same catty of tea, a load of ordinary tea in Chang'an, Guanzhong, costs at most three to five thousand yuan.Of course, the price of the best famous tea is naturally different, but the rare thing is considered expensive, as long as it is expensive tea, the output must be extremely low.

However, when the tea is transported to Xizhou Road, the price has actually increased by five or six times, and you can't buy even the worst tea foam.There is also silk, the price of a piece of silk in Chang'an is about five hundred guan or two guan, but in Xizhou Road, the price has increased to ten guan.Moreover, the resources in the Western Regions are very rich. Chen Ying used the mined iron and steel, coal, and kerosene, all of which are hard currencies. The kerosene refined by Chen Ying burns violently and with a high flame. The soot produced during the refining of kerosene, In fact, it is also the best raw material for making ink.All kinds of precious medicinal materials and spices are simply inexhaustible.

Chen Ying's development of the Western Regions actually benefits the whole people.Although the various ethnic groups and tribes in the Western Regions have worked hard, they have received corresponding rewards. They can eat rice and white noodles that were unimaginable before, as well as golden millet, and even drink tea.In the Western Regions, people’s eating habits are very easy to get anorectal digestive system diseases, but tea can promote digestion, especially salt. Although there are salt mines in the Western Regions, most of the salt is poisonous salt. He brought salt with him, but Chen Ying adopted the method of analysis and separation to obtain a large amount of salt, which can not only be supplied to merchants along the way, but also be exported in large quantities.

The Western Regions are now a towering main building built on the ground, and gratifying progress has been made.

Li Xiuning casually flipped through the mansion newspaper in front of Chen Ying, as well as various information, and smiled: "Are you so suspicious now?"

Chen Ying smiled noncommittally and said: "It seems that there is nothing that can be hidden from you!"

"It's not surprising!" Li Xiuning pointed to the intelligence file on Chen Ying's case and said, "Over two-thirds of your intelligence comes from Western Turks. Look, it’s nothing more than telling the Western Turks, you don’t plan to attack the Western Turks?”

"Isn't this better?" Chen Yingdao: "Since the death of Yehu Khan, the leader of the Western Turks, the Western Turks have been divided into four. Now the four Khans are fighting so hard that their brains are blown out. Why don't I let them go?" They fight for a while longer? If I show half-hearted intention to move westward, they will definitely shake hands and make peace, and fight against the Tang Dynasty together. The lives of the soldiers are precious, so don’t sacrifice if you can’t sacrifice it!”

Li Xiuning frowned slightly and said: "Aren't you worried that there will be another hero in Western Turkic like Turkic Tumen Khan? With this internal strife, he will unify Western Turkic and become a strong enemy of our Great Tang?"

"Don't worry, if that day really happens, I'm looking forward to a showdown with 40 Western Turkic people, and let the iron cavalry decide the ownership of the Western Regions!" Chen Yingdao: "The thing we are most afraid of in the Tang Dynasty is to hold a national war. The return has already begun. Li Jing will enter the Ministry of War and serve as the left servant of the Ministry of War of the Tang Dynasty. It seems that Qu Tutong will abdicate in the near future. , our Tang Dynasty can mobilize an army of more than 30 horses at any time, if the Western Turks are smart, they will immediately flee all the way west, if not, they will have no chance at all!"

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying and said, "Chen Lang, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War of the Tang Dynasty, you should do it!"

"I..." Chen Ying said with a dumbfounded smile, "I'm too young, Li Jing is only [-] years old, and he's in the prime of life, so it's more suitable for him to do it!"

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying and said, "I'm not joking!"

"I'm not joking either!" Chen Yingdao: "The thing I most hope to do is not to get promoted and get rich, but to stay with you forever!"

Facts have proved that there is a price to pay for staying together.

What's more, Chen Ying also has six concubines including Li Xiuning, Li Daozhen, Xu Erniang, and so on. Even if they are exposed to rain and dew, Chen Ying gradually feels a little powerless.

……

Since Yang Rong married Samurai Xun, she has been Samurai Xun's housekeeper. Of course, Samurai Xun has no intention of taking care of business. This is also the main reason why he put all his energy on his official career.

Like her daughter Wu Zetian in history, Yang Rong met a husband who was willing to let go, so in this patriarchal society, she has the space and stage to display her talents.

After Yang Rong took charge of all the business of the Wu family, although the warrior Xun spread his money everywhere like a boy who spread money, the Wu family's money, instead of being exhausted, became more and more prosperous.

Cotton quilts appeared in Chang'an City, which made Yang Rong keenly aware of the business opportunities.In this era, although down quilts are light and warm, the price is still high due to the problem of down production.For example, now, compared with the original price of [-] or [-] guan, the down quilt has dropped to [-] or [-] guan.

However, this price is not acceptable to ordinary people.When the quilt covered Yang Rong's body, she fell asleep happily and felt very comfortable.

Although down is light, like fur, due to technical reasons, it is impossible to eradicate the odor. Many people use a lot of spices to smoke, but it makes the smell of the duvet even weirder.Quilts, however, don't have this problem.

Yang Rong took the carriage that Chen Ying sent her to Fuguiju early in the morning.Fuguiju is said to be the property of Lantianhou.This is the industry of the famous Taiyuan Wang family.

Seeing Yang Rong appear, the shopkeeper of Fuguiju hurriedly came out to meet him. Yang Rong's elder brother Guan Guogong Yang Gongren was promoted to Zhongshu Shizhong (formerly Nayan) in the sixth year of Wude, and along with it, Yang Rong also rose.Liu Sicong, the treasurer of Fuguiju, sent people to bring tea and pastries.Yang Rong didn't greet Liu Sicong politely, and got to the point at the beginning: "It is said that shopkeeper Liu brought six thousand catties of cotton from the Western Regions?"

Shopkeeper Liu immediately said: "Six thousand two hundred catties!"

Yang Rong asked again: "How is the market going?"

Shopkeeper Liu said with a wry smile, "The price is 250 cents per catty?"

Yang Rong calculated silently in her heart. If the thick quilt is packed in 530 catties, it would not cost [-] yuan, plus transportation and labor costs. As long as the price does not exceed [-] guan, it is estimated that most people can afford it. .

"That's right." Yang Rong smiled, and said, "Naturally, you can rest assured. Our Yingguo Mansion's business will never be faked. Then you just need to bring cotton to the warehouse, weigh it and put it in the warehouse, and you will get a lot of money."

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head and said, "Mrs. Wu, don't blame the old man for talking too much. I have something to say. Although Brother Ling has already been served by Zhongshu, our Taiyuan Wang family...haha."

He didn't say the rest, but the meaning was very clear.Don't think that you can embezzle Taiyuan Wang's business by adding a Zhongshu servant and a minister of the Ministry of Industry.There are no doors.

Yang Rong raised her eyebrows: "I'll give you three hundred Wen per catty!"

Shopkeeper Liu said, "It's not about money!"

"Five hundred Wen per catty, no more. Shopkeeper Liu, you can't be too greedy!" Yang Rong said: "We don't talk about other things in the business field, just ask whether you want to do this business or not!"

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head and said, "Madam Wu, forgive me, this is really not about money!"

"As long as I leave this door, there is no room for redemption!" Yang Rong got up and walked to the door, then turned to look at shopkeeper Liu and said, "Or, you can send a letter to your family and find someone who can make the decision? "

Shopkeeper Liu said with a wry smile: "There is really no way to accommodate this matter, and Madam Wu please don't embarrass me!"

"Haha!" The smile on Yang Rong's face became wider and wider, and she stepped towards the door.

Shopkeeper Liu thought for a while and said, "Mrs. Wu, if the family needs quilts, I can make the decision and send three sets to the Wu family!"

"No need, let the Taiyuan Wang family find someone who is worthy to talk to me in the future!" Yang Rong left without looking back.

Yang Rong just made sure of one thing, the cotton was produced in the Western Regions, and that was enough.

Chen Ying is her cousin, so she will definitely not treat this cousin badly!
PS: I got together with my friends today and came back a little late.There will be more later, today, no matter how late, don't write the third watch, don't sleep!
