Datang first village

There are hundreds of tribes, big and small, but the biggest tent in the middle is always empty.

Until dawn the next day, a group of people came here. After accepting the gift from Datang, they walked into the middle and largest tent without the slightest hesitation.

As for setting up the middlemost and largest tent, Li Yuanxing just wanted to see if there was a tribe recognized as the strongest by everyone, or a tribe that had become the king of the island.

After the sun rose, Li Yuanxing got on and off the flying boat wearing the King Qin robe.

Right on the beach, all the tribe was crowded in the back except for the three women, who alone stood at the front.The woman in the lead was about 50 years old, and she was wearing silk. Although it was a bit old, it was indeed silk.

Li Yuanxing sat down and pointed to the chair in front of him. There was only one chair there.

The 50-year-old woman saluted Li Yuanxing according to Tang-style etiquette. Judging from the etiquette, it was a man's etiquette, and it was the kind of etiquette used by subordinate officials to meet their superiors.

Li Yuanxing bowed slightly, which was considered a return of the courtesy.

"I, Fu Xingzhu!" It turned out to be in Chinese, and then there was a long string of languages ​​that Li Yuanxing couldn't understand. It was a bit like Baekje, but it didn't look like it.Instead, the young woman next to her said: "My name is Fu Qinghua, and I am the heir to the first Star Lord. The Star Lord said to His Royal Highness King Qin, it is the honor of our Jiyi tribe to have a great man like you visit us, Datang The king of Qin is the star king in the sky and the god in the world!"

Li Yuanxing nodded slightly again: "This king is a little surprised."

"I, a Jiyi, originally attached to Baekje, the princess, I paid Tsinghua. I studied in Baekje for six years and only returned to this island three days ago. So I know His Royal Highness King Qin!"

Li Yuanxing smiled and waved his hands: "This king is here, no matter what you think. In fact, it is good for both parties. Datang needs this island, because the construction of a port here has huge benefits for Datang."

"His Royal Highness King Qin came here alone. There are no large soldiers to overwhelm the country. We Jiyi people believe in your sincerity!"

Li Yuanxing clapped his hands, and Lu Maofeng placed a box on the guest's table.

The star master is equivalent to the king of the Jiyi people.

Before Fu Xingzhu opened the box, Li Yuanxing said: "You Jiyi people believe that sea water is the tears of stones, and it is also the tears of sea women. Sea water is salty, like tears. However, the gift I gave you is very simple, that is, Let your ama no longer cry, let this beautiful island, only joy!"

After hearing his daughter's translation, Fu Xingzhu opened the box in front of him with doubts.

"Ah!" Xingzhu Fu exclaimed and stood up. She could hardly believe her eyes. It was a box of pearls with a diameter of 100 centimeters. They were golden pearls. Their divers might not be able to get such pearls even after [-] years. Get this plate out.

"Are you surprised?"

"Isn't that surprising enough?" Fu Qinghua asked back.

Li Yuanxing clapped his hands lightly, ten personal guards lined up, each of them opened a box, ten different colors of ten plates of pearls with a diameter of about [-] to [-] centimeters.

Fu Xing advocated having a big mouth and holding objects with both hands.

Li Yuanxing clapped his hands again, those pearls were taken away, and ten boxes were replaced, but the ten boxes had different descriptions, such as triangle, star, rhombus and so on.

"No, it's not real."

"Continue!" Li Yuanxing sat on the chair calmly. Twenty personal guards brought out ten boxes. After opening, there were ten boxes full of pearls. In Fu Xingzhu's eyes, they are the pearls that normal people can see.

Fu Qinghua inserted her hand into the box, she really suspected that this was only the top layer of the box.

But in fact, it is a full box.

You know, such a box of pearls is a box of pearls of such fineness that the [-] divers on the island may not be able to save enough for a year of hard work. They risked their lives and used these pearls to exchange food and clothing with the Baekje people.

Li Yuanxing clapped his hands gently, Qiuxiang stood up, took out a notebook and read: "Last year, Tamna traded with Baekje and got 550 pieces of silk."

"One year, your income for the entire year is only these 550 pieces of silk."

Li Yuanxing stood up: "I know what Princess Silla asked the king for when she offered Silla as the state capital of the Tang Dynasty. She asked for [-] pieces of rainbow brocade, [-] pieces of cloud brocade, and [-] shi of three kinds of grain seeds. Thirty thousand catties of refined steel."

"We understand that the Silla people were attacked by Goguryeo. In order to protect themselves, they might as well become a land of the Tang Dynasty. The Kim family can also guarantee their wealth. The Tianwei of the Tang Dynasty will destroy Pyongyang in one day, and Silla knows that They can't resist, and we Jiyi people are also afraid, afraid that our entire island will become slaves of the Tang Dynasty."

"Have you heard of Jin Manqing?" Li Yuanxing asked with a smile.

Fu Qinghua shook his head.

Li Yuanxing motioned Qiuxiang to talk about it, and when Qiuxiang talked about the lawsuit in Chang'an City, Fu Qinghua shouted: "That slave who is not a princess but is better than a princess, a high-ranking Goguryeo slave girl, just because of her Become a Datang man!"

"Do you know what this king said to Silla Kinderman?"

Fu Qinghua shook his head again.

Li Yuanxing said with a smile: "This king told her, whether she is about to marry my prince of the Tang Dynasty, or as the princess of the Jin family of the peninsula, she will lose her identity by talking about those things. This king will give her a hundred times. Now , this king wants to tell you, 550 pieces of silk, hahaha!"

Li Yuanxing's laughter was confident, but a little crazy.

But the person in front of him is His Royal Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty. He has the qualifications to be crazy, and there are no more than three people who don't bow their heads in front of him.

"This king will give you a thousand times to help the barbarians."

"One, a thousand times!" Fu Qinghua suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Li Yuanxing sat down again: "My king will do the math for you. The silk of Baekje is the lowest silk product in Datang. Datang no longer produces it because the people don't need it. All the silk products traded with foreign countries in the market It is an old stock in stock, and one horse is worth about two pennies. 550 horses are one thousand one hundred pennies, right?"

"Yes!" Fu Qinghua nodded heavily.

Li Yuanxing laughed to himself: "Miscalculated!"

Just when Fu Qinghua thought that what Li Yuanxing said just now was a thousand times too high, and that he would regret it after calculating the accounts, he heard Li Yuanxing say: "I knew it was 100 times, and a mere thousand times is really not much. But it is There are about 40 to [-] residents on this island, and there is only one penny per person on average. This king thinks that each person can earn at least ten pennies per year."

"This!" Fu Qinghua didn't know how to translate. The more Xingzhu Fu listened, the more he felt that his daughter had heard it wrong. How could it be such a number? It's 550 times that of [-] pieces of silk. Is this a myth?

Li Yuanxing turned his head and said a few words to Qiuxiang. Qiuxiang called out the guards who knew Baekje, and then loudly said what Li Yuanxing had said to the leaders of the Jiyi tribes standing behind.

Many leaders had already disregarded the rules and rushed to Fu Xingzhu, shouted a few words and then ran back.

Fu Xingzhu's eyes were dull.

Fu Qinghua gritted his teeth and shouted at Li Yuanxing: "Datang is a big country, we are just a small island. We don't have an army, and we don't have enough men to fight. Don't lie to us, we Jiyi people are willing to serve Datang. "

"Do you think my words, Li Yuanxing, are not enough?"

"No, we dare not!"

Li Yuanxing stretched out a finger: "Don't worry, I will settle the score for you." After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he said to Qiuxiang: "Go and get some coins, as well as food, silk, etc., as long as you have something on the ship, take some and put them here. , and then ordered to prepare lunch, it seems that this negotiation will take some time."

Qiuxiang nodded, and immediately ran back to the flying boat.

Wang Yuyan was watching from the window, and she finally understood that Li Yuanxing came here to merge this island into the big island.This will be negotiating conditions, promising benefits.After calling his maid to whisper a few words, the maid ran to Li Yuanxing's ear and whispered a few words in a low voice.

Li Yuanxing was stunned, but after thinking about it, he smiled.

Although Wang Yuyan's suggestion sounds childish, it is very reasonable.

Things are on display, a lot of supplies, all kinds of items, it can be said that most people on this island don't know each other.Li Yuanxing smiled and lit a cigarette. He was not in a hurry, because what he wanted to convince was the whole island, not just one person. "Lieutenant Lu, go and arrange for someone to explain to the tribes, what is the king asked to put there? Especially how much it is worth in Chang'an, and how much it is worth when it is sold to foreign countries. In particular, what is a coin and what does its value represent?"

"Understood, this is the arrangement." Lu Maofeng picked someone up and explained. Hundreds of people gathered around and listened carefully.

Li Yuanxing has already set up a pergola here and tasted tea.

At lunch time, the Jiyi tribes sent tens of thousands of catties of sea fish, which is also their sincerity.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the leaders of each tribe returned to their original positions, sitting on the beach.Li Yuanxing was sitting under the awning, but this time the person sitting in front of him was Fu Qinghua.

"I am the Star Lord now, and I represent the Jiyi people to accept the gift from the Tang Dynasty!"

She even used the word gift, this girl's Chinese is pretty good, and she's quite smart.The gift is not only a flattering language, but also a gentle threat, that is, you, the Tang Dynasty, cannot bully our Jiyi people who are almost all women.

"Although I dare not say how many there will be, but there will be many men here soon. What I want to declare is..." Li Yuanxing was about to say that he didn't treat this place like a brothel in Chang'an, but the audience behind Fu Qinghua The hundreds of people who had been translated shouted, and Fu Qinghua also stood up: "Will there be 1 men?"

Li Yuanxing was stunned... (To be continued.)
