Chapter 262 The Three Great Tang Empresses Are Also Jealous...

Murong Shun's surrender without a fight really caught many people off guard.

For example, Lou Ning, if he died fighting for the Ming court, he could win a rich political legacy for the Lou family, not only that, but also make it easier for the tribe to integrate into the Daming court.

You know, when Li Chengqian was just trying to test them back then, some clansmen stood up knowing that they were going to die. Although he said that these people died without guilt, he didn't know how painful it was.

And what did Lou Ning do, doesn't he understand?Therefore, he who cannot die on the battlefield is ultimately a hidden danger to Lou.

Does Murong Shun know this? In fact, he also knows it.

He did it on purpose. In his opinion, Lou Ning's betrayal was extremely contemptible.

If it wasn't for the betrayal of Lou Ning and others, how could he have been defeated so thoroughly?
As an extreme egoist, he doesn't think it's his own fault. In his opinion, everything is caused by others.

"King Gaochang, please." The visitor said, "Your Highness has told you that you must send King Gaochang back to Water River County."

Murong Xiaojun understood what this meant, so he didn't say much at the moment, gathered his own people and turned away, heading towards Water River County.

The visitor looked at Qiu Bowen, and then at Lou Ning curiously. Didn't he say that this guy is dead?Why are you still here?

Of course, this is not something he should be concerned about, so he said immediately: "Let's go together, the two generals. Your Highness also has arrangements for the two generals."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Murong Shun again, and said, "Come here, except King Daning and others, all the others will be escorted to the north together."

As for Murong Shun and others, there will naturally be special personnel responsible for escorting them back to Riyue Mountain.

……

Not long after, Riyue Mountain also received the news.

Gao Chunxing said awkwardly: "Your Highness, this Lou Ning..."

Li Chengqian was also embarrassed. Before he had said that Lou Ning would die this time, but...but he was also thick-skinned, so he said immediately: "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that Murong Shun would surrender without a fight. It's okay, since God wants to keep him alive, so let him keep it, or let him sit and guard Tubo himself."

Just at this time, Li Qinjian came.

"Your Highness, the deal with Western Turks has been finalized." Li Qinjian said, "The price has increased a lot compared to before, and it is roughly estimated that the profit will be at least [-]%."

Li Chengqian smiled and said: "You are an official now, don't just focus on business interests. It's not that business interests are not important, but that you have to change your thinking.

Business, in fact, is a great science, and to achieve the ultimate in business can also have the effect of stealing the country.

Just like our Daming Royal Court, what is the most urgent need of the Daming Royal Court today? "

"Food?" Li Qinjian replied immediately, everyone knew this.

Li Chengqian nodded, and said: "Yes, it is grain, and now more than [-]% of the grain of the Ming royal court depends on imports from Datang, but if Datang blocks the export of our grain, what should we do?
Why do you think those people on the grassland are willing to surrender to us?

In the final analysis, it is because we can make them full and not hungry.

If you let them starve for one day, they may still be able to endure it, and they can persist after two days of starvation. How about three days of starvation?They will become who we used to be.

Then let me ask you, if this kind of thing really happened, are they at fault? "

Li Qinjian was silent in thought.

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "That's right, it's all for having enough to eat and for surviving in this world, how can it be wrong? People, being born and living, this is already the minimum requirement, this requirement Nothing can satisfy them, you have to accept whatever they do.

Don't use righteousness as an issue. When a person is about to starve to death, his only righteousness is to survive. "

"But can't we buy food back from Datang now? This problem shouldn't be difficult to solve, right?" Li Qinjian said, "Now the population of our imperial court of Ming Dynasty is only a few hundred thousand, even if the food from Datang is supplied to them , there will be a surplus, whether it is for Datang or for us, it is actually a win-win situation.”

Shaking his head, Li Chengqian said: "You, your thinking still hasn't changed, and now we do have a good relationship with Datang, and everyone knows the reason for that.

But what if we have a conflict with Datang?In other words, our actions have threatened the interests of certain interest groups in Datang?
Why do you really think that people don't mind and keep bringing food to our Daming royal court?Isn't this a way for Datang to control our Ming court.

Not to mention far away, right now, it is extremely easy for Datang to deal with us, cut off the trade between the two sides, and the Ming court will be in chaos. This is business seeking the country! "

"Will such a thing happen?" Li Qinjian was a little disbelieving.

Don't tease me, okay, you are the prince of Datang!

Li Chengqian smiled: "Why do you use interrogative sentences for this kind of thing? This means that we have no conflicts with Datang, and there are no conflicts with those interest groups in Datang. If there is one, just watch it!"
Remember, there is no family relationship between countries. Don't think that the status of the king is really a profit. Now that Datang is willing to do such a thing, do you think they regard us as a country?

People are sure that we are a state capital in their eyes, and this is why they are willing to do so. "

After hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Qinjian was a little at a loss.

He is a businessman, so he really doesn't understand these things, but from the standpoint of a businessman, it seems that there is nothing wrong with him. Who would do something that is not beneficial?
Immediately, he asked: "Then now we are dependent on Datang's grain, at least for this year, we will all be dependent on Datang's grain, so we can't stop importing grain from Datang?"

"That's what I want to say." Li Chengqian said, "No matter in what aspect, we must get rid of over-reliance on one party.

It’s true that we are inseparable from Datang now, but as a country, we should not pin our hopes on any one party at any time. It is true that Datang has food, does Tuyuhun?No Tubo?

We must be more than two-handedly prepared to face any environment and situation at any time, so as not to let people get stuck in our necks. "

"But Tuyuhun doesn't have enough food, and we don't know much about Tubo." Li Qinjian said, "But judging from previous contacts, the situation in Tubo is probably not very good."

Li Chengqian shook his head and said: "No one asked you to care about the well-being of their common people, you should remember that food will always be in the hands of a small number of people.

Even Datang is the same. Don't you know that the food that Datang comes over comes from someone?

Don't stare at the hands of ordinary people, look up, and you will find that they are not that poor.

In any place, there will be poor and rich people. If no one asks you to find food from the poor, how much is there? "

"Your Highness means to focus on those tribes and nobles?" Li Qinjian finally understood.

Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Yes, they actually have a lot of cattle, sheep and grain in their hands, it is not easy for them to sell to us, but it is by no means impossible.

Anything, in the final analysis, is nothing more than the word interest.

Why do you think the Western Turks are willing? "

"Western Turks are willing because they need our Liannu." Li Qinjian said, "But we can't trade weapons with Tuyuhun and Tubo, right?"

Li Chengqian sighed, and said, "You still don't understand. In this way, you should first understand what their demands are, and then we will talk about this topic."

He actually knew what the answer was, but he couldn't do everything himself, could he?
It was possible in the past, but not now. With such a large area of ​​Chishuiyuan, he was allowed to do it himself, and he could die of exhaustion.

Of course, he gave Li Qinjian a direction, and sooner or later he will gain something.

After Li Qinjian left, Gao Chunxing asked, "Your Highness, are you worried about Datang?"

"It can't be said that you can't worry about it." Li Chengqian said, "Always be prepared with both hands. It's better to be in trouble when things come to an end."

Regarding this, Gao Chunxing didn't say much. In fact, they were the same as Li Qinjian. Although they served in the imperial court of the Ming Dynasty, they still believed that they were from the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chengqian actually knew, but now there is no better way.

Moreover, this issue does not need to be dealt with specially. As time goes by, as their interests become entangled with the Daming royal court, they will naturally understand.

At that time, there is no need for Li Chengqian to say these things, they will think about it themselves.

No one will give up the benefits they have obtained easily.

Only at that time will Li Chengqian have the confidence to rebuild a dynasty comparable to the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Highness, Murong Shun and others will arrive soon, what should we do?" Gao Chunxing asked.

Li Chengqian said casually: "Get under confinement first, don't worry, Murong Shun's existence may be of some use to us in the future.

Leaving him alone, what is the situation in Chishui City now?Any news? "

"Not yet." Gao Chunxing said, "I'll ask Ma Ye later."

Li Chengqian nodded and said no more.

……

At the same time, in Chang'an City.

Li Ke and Li Tai were not idle after they returned to Chang'an. Anyway, Li Chengqian did benefit them a lot from this envoy.

As for who planned Taoyuan's assassination at the beginning, both of them are also investigating in private.

Although this matter has little to do with them, but to be honest, both of them are suspected.

After all, if something happens to Li Chengqian, both of them will be the biggest beneficiaries.

As for the behavior of the two of them, Li Er naturally knew about it, so he didn't say much.

Who the murderer is, he knows.

But he didn't mind.

Wanting to sit in that position, Li Chengqian had to face things like this non-stop.

Why didn't he meet him in the past?
He also wanted to see again, what kind of conspiracy was behind this.

In Changming Restaurant, Changle also met people from the Wu family.

The person who came was Samurai Xun's elder brother, Samurai Rang.

Of the four samurai Xun brothers, except for samurai Rang who continued to do business, the other three brothers have all entered official positions.

"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess." Samurai Rang was over 60 years old, and in this age, he could be considered a very old man.

Chang Le nodded, but didn't say much.

"This is a wish from the Wu family." Seeing this, the warrior took out an envelope from his pocket.

Xia Qing took the envelope and handed it to Changle.

Chang Le just looked at it, then waved his hand.

Changle did lack some experience in dealing with these old foxes.

After the warrior left, Changle opened the envelope and looked at it, good guy, the Wu family really made a big deal, this is at least half of the dowry.

From the looks of it, in order to be able to marry their daughter to the imperial court of Ming Dynasty, the Wu family also spent a lot of money.

Immediately, Chang Le got up and went back to the palace. She had to ask Empress Changsun about this matter.

Not long after, Chang Le returned to the palace and asked directly: "Mother, what is this Wu family doing this time?"

As she spoke, she also told what she had just met Samurai Rang.

Empress Changsun heard the words and said with a smile: "This Wu family is generous, so they didn't ask for anything else?"

"I didn't mention it." Chang Le said, "I just sent this letter, and I let him leave."

"If they didn't make a request, it means that they are still probing." The eldest grandson said, "It's okay, as of now, they can't make much waves."

Hearing Changsun's words, Changle nodded immediately, and said: "That's true, when we arrive at the Ming court, eldest brother has plenty of ways to deal with them."

After finishing speaking, the little guy started laughing.

In her impression, there was nothing Li Chengqian couldn't do.

The eldest grandson also laughed.

She is still very satisfied with her pair of children.

"By the way, what's the matter with Qingque and the others?" the eldest grandson asked, "I heard that after going to the Ming court, they all made a lot of money."

"Hey." Chang Le said with a smile, "Daming Royal Court has a lot of good things, so where is it? Now, the businessmen who went to Daming Royal Court have made a lot of money."

Speaking of this, Changle is very happy.

In the past, she always thought that Chang'an was very prosperous, but after returning to Chang'an this time, she unexpectedly found that life in Chang'an was far less convenient than that of the Ming court.

Not to mention anything else, just say that the juice she used to like to drink is not available in Chang'an.

There are also some strange little things made in many workshops. I didn't think much of them before, but now I feel that although those things seem insignificant, after they are gone, I always feel that something is missing.

"Since you can make money, why didn't you see that the mother's caravan is making money?" The eldest grandson pretended to be displeased and said, "You two are heartless, thanks to the fact that the mother is worried about you all day long, it turns out that you two have forgotten the mother. Followed, right?
Now, the internal funds controlled by the queen mother can starve the mice to death, so you two brothers and sisters have the right to pretend that you didn't see it? "

Chang Le flung herself into the arms of her eldest grandson, and said, "No, the elder brother said that these temporary businesses are not suitable for the empress. Don't worry, I heard from the elder brother that after returning this time, the empress's caravan will have business to do." , will definitely make money."

"You guys still have a bit of conscience." The eldest grandson said with a smile.

In fact, she also knows that the current business is indeed not suitable for her to do, but when she thinks about the few thousand coins left in her internal funds, and then thinks that Qing Que and the others have made thousands of coins in one transaction.

Well, Empress Datang was also jealous.

Chang Le said with a smile: "It's actually very simple to make money."

"What do you know?" The eldest grandson touched the little guy's head and said, "That's why Gao Ming's business can't be done by others, so you think it's easy to make money.

You ask all over the world, how many people think making money is easy?

If it were really easy to make money, how could there be so many people without food and clothing in this world? "

Chang Le thought for a while, and said: "That's not it, I don't know anything else, anyway, if I want to make money, my elder brother said that I can become the richest little rich woman."

"You child, why are you talking?" After hearing Chang Le's words, the eldest grandson slapped her lightly. Of course, it was neither painful nor itchy. ?”

"Originally." Chang Le continued, "I have a shop in Riyue Mountain, which was given to me by my elder brother. I discussed it with my elder brother before. When I go back this time, I will open a shop to sell juice.

The elder brother has said that this business can make a lot of money if it is done well.

Well, they earn more than Third Brother. "

The eldest grandson became interested and asked, "What is fruit juice?"

"It's fruit juice." Chang Le said, "Brother said that all juices should be collectively referred to as drinks, which are suitable for any group of people. Unfortunately, the current juicer is not convenient to carry, otherwise I will let my mother have a taste of that taste."

Hearing what Changle said, Changsun smiled.

Left and right are just a matter of tongue, she doesn't care too much, but this is the child's wish, and she said immediately: "It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future."

"That's right." Chang Le said, "Brother said, only I own the juicer, so I am the only one who can do this juice business. In the future, I will be able to sell this juice to any place in the world, and I will make a lot of money by then. A lot of money."

"You are a little girl, why do you become a fan of little money?" the eldest grandson joked.

But after finishing speaking, the eldest grandson seemed to realize something, and asked, "What is this juicer?"

"It's a machine that can extract the juice of fruits to the greatest extent." Chang Le said, "The entire Daming Royal Court now has only one juicer, and it is dedicated to me. Help me make a few, and it is estimated that after I go back, my juice shop will be able to open."

"Your elder brother made this too?" the eldest grandson asked.

Chang Le said: "Yeah, when my elder brother came back from the war, he got this for me. In fact, it is far more than this, and there are many, many more, such as a Trojan horse that can run by itself, and a box that can broadcast music, many, many, many more. "

After listening to Chang Le, the eldest grandson didn't speak, she seemed to understand the method of the Ming court to make money.

They never do things that everyone is familiar with, but they do things that others have never heard of or seen.

Even the previous paper is the same.

Although paper is not a rare item, but at that price, it is really a rare item.

Novel things always arouse the interest of many people.

While the eldest grandson was worried, he was also a little jealous. This kind of business really makes money...
