Datang first village

Finally, Li Yuanxing returned to Chang'an after ten days of the mahjong contest for noble ladies of the Tang Dynasty. .

had to come back.

Every time he thought that the Tang nobles seemed to have gone crazy, Li Yuanxing couldn't sleep peacefully.

But after returning to Chang'an, Li Yuanxing was even more upset.

Qinwangzhuang has still become a super casino, and there are not only mahjong tables here.When Wu Zhao came back from Yaozhou, he used baccarat, dice, Pai Gow, and even Texas Hold'em.

The rules were set by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and they were divided into four sizes: five, ten, fifteen, and fifty.Five is a tonnage of five guanqian, which refers to small boats.And fifty pennies a chip is a bet on a giant ship of more than [-] tons, the higher the cost of super-large, and the stronger the ocean-going capability.

Each chip has an individual number, which is marked in four colors: iron, copper, silver, and gold.

The chips are bought, but the bought chips cannot be exchanged for the tonnage, only the ones that win can.So when it comes to gambling, Prince Qin's Mansion is the croupier, and there is no commission.You can play various games, and then come to allocate orders for the whole year of next year, about 80 tons of tonnage, which is enough for Datang to wipe out Nanyang.

When Li Yuanxing returned to Qinwangzhuang, Wu Zhao and Li Er were playing Go.

When these two are chatting and playing chess, no one can get close.Of course, Li Yuanxing doesn't count.Wu Zhao and Li Er said in unison that Li Yuanxing is not human.

Li Erkou said that he was not a human being, but that Li Yuanxing was a star king in the sky.

When Wu Zhao said that Li Yuanxing was not a human being, he was talking about a beast.

"What are you talking about? Are you so happy?" Li Yuanxing sat beside the Go table.

Wu Zhao and Li Er laughed at the same time, and Li Er happily turned to Li Yuanxing and said, "Goro, last year's national treasury did not count your income in Wa Island, it was already three times that of the previous year. It’s very high. I heard that the Qinghe Cui family earned as much as the past ten years in one year.”

Wu Zhao also interjected: "Qinghe Cui used a bullock cart to pull more than 100 carts of silver and more than a dozen carts of gold. They went to Yinzhuang and exchanged them for a large amount of silver bills. They bought [-] tons at one time. The Lu family I also bought [-] tons. This time, the heads of the two families will go to the field in person, and we will compete."

"The loser should be miserable!" Li Yuanxing asked casually.

"No. It's not as miserable as you imagined. Every family has a bottom line. Brother Wei sent people to observe secretly. Take Cui and Lu's family as an example. First, they each lost several thousand tons to each other. Then they lost these in exchange for The actual tonnage. A family consists of two large ships of [-] tons. Then the real bet starts. That is, even if you lose, you will still have two large ships to guarantee the bottom line. The business in Nanyang can also be used with wooden sailboats of [-] tons. .”

Li Er gave Li Yuanxing an interesting explanation.

Wu Zhao took out a small tape recorder at this moment: "Listen!"

Li Yuanxing put on his headphones.What I heard was that the Cui family was teaching several small families who depended on them.

That was Cui Junsu's voice.

"Beat people, grab things, you pigs!" Cui Junsu actually learned to use pigs to describe people. This is an improvement, a huge improvement in language ability.Hearing this, Li Yuanxing already laughed.

"Read carefully, every word His Royal Highness Qin once said, and then carefully study the details of everything His Royal Highness did. Think about the Goguryeo clan, then think about the Japanese people. Then let's talk about Nanyang."

When Cui Junsu heard about Nanyang, Li Yuanxing couldn't help changing his sitting position, sitting really, listening very seriously.

"Nanyang is divided into three types of people. The first type is those who can spend money with us, the second type is those who want to use our influence to speculate, and the third type is those who want to deal with us. Therefore, we also need to prepare three types of weapons .”

"Those who don't understand my words, go back to study and learn what is the theory of sheep cannibalism."

"The first weapon is coins, silver coins, and gold coins. As Princess Mingyue often joked, silver, she likes silver. Wealth is the weapon in our hands. Do people in Nanyang want to live better? Then come and give it to us. If you listen to our Tang Dynasty people, if you are obedient, you will eat better, dress better, and become a master under the Tang Dynasty."

In terms of wealth strategy, Li Yuanxing has to say that the people from the big family are really smart.

"The second weapon is the leather whip. Let all the rebels know who is what they say. Of course, I don't want you idiots to beat people yourself. Once you do it, you will use the regular army of the Tang Dynasty to make those barbarians The lowly guys know what the real god of death is. If you want to fight, you have to scare them."

Good theory, Li Yuanxing did not expect Cui Junsu to summarize this to such an extent.

But Cui Junsu's words obviously didn't speak.

"Remember, when it comes to whipping people, let the Japanese Hong Kong guards fight, and let the Silla people do the tax collection. You must not let these two kinds of guys do the same job, let them have a kind of mutual restraint, Japanese thugs and Silla tax officials are absolutely indispensable in every port, what is the job of the Datang people?"

It's a bit of a mess down there.

Cui Junsu shouted: "The job of the people of Tang Dynasty is to count money!"

awesome.

Immediately afterwards, Cui Junsu lowered his voice: "The last weapon was realized by a certain person. Whether it is Japanese, Goguryeo, Silla, or Nanyang people. Our last weapon is a bone. Throw a bone and tell them to bite. To rob, to fight. Only our Datang can remain undefeated."

The sound that came down was extremely quiet, and words such as the Holy One, the King of Qin, and the family could be faintly heard.

Seeing Li Yuanxing's frown, Wu Zhao said, "I can't hear clearly, don't underestimate these aristocratic families. They have already learned the tricks you and Brother Huang used, unless you have better ones."

"No, under absolute power, any scheme is useless."

Li Yuanxing objected to Wu Zhao's proposal.

Li Er also said: "Is it because of that iron guy?"

"What does a battlecruiser represent? Of course, only battleships are the overlords of the sea. Let them play, and after a few years of playing, we will start selling battleships. Open the era of big ships and cannons, and let the world hang the banner of Datang .” Li Yuanxing is full of confidence, he believes that the ultimate point of this game is global Sinicization.

"I hope that among my children and grandchildren, there will be such talents as the first emperor!"

Li Er sighed.

Through this sentence, it represents Li Er's aspirations.

The imperial court of the Tang Dynasty may not be able to control the whole world for hundreds of years.But once everyone's ambition is mobilized, it can be completed within a few decades, at least in name, it is all Datang's territory.

Just like the saying in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the general trend of the world is that if it is divided for a long time, it will be united, and if it is united for a long time, it will be divided.

Li Er's thoughts have risen to another level.

Sinicizing the world is also his great cause of being one emperor through the ages. As for global unification, these small fiefdoms are still the fiefdoms of the Tang Dynasty.It will be hundreds of years before he dares to rebel. At that time, he will not worry about it, and his children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.

"By the way, Wulang!" Li Er waved his hand to the side, and Eunuch Gao trotted over, and after listening to Li Er's instructions, he brought a file bag over.Li Er took out a document from inside: "Wulang, this is Lanyue's watch seal. It was originally intended to be given to Brother Wei after you came back, but Brother Wei only went to see it after hearing rumors about Chang'an. "

"I know this, we discussed it."

That copy is the badge of the whole species of mulberry in Wajima.

"Goro, how about giving Lanyue an official position, just like Mingyue has the title of Minister of the Ministry of Industry, how about giving Lanyue the title of Minister of the Ministry of Households?"

Li Er is asking, a seal is indifferent to him.

Right now, it depends on whether Li Yuanxing lets Li Lanshan walk to the front at will instead of just hiding behind his man.

"My brother thanked the emperor on behalf of Lanyue." Li Yuanxing's words agreed to Li Er's proposal.

Wu Zhao said: "I think that how to increase steel production is the most important thing. There is also the aluminum industry, which is not easy, but we have to do it. That thing may cause workers to be poisoned, and the Daoists are already studying the way to deal with it. You know that Daomen likes to deal with these weird things, so they have a way."

"En!" Li Yuanxing just nodded.

In the venue, many people clapped their hands suddenly, and Li Er hooked his fingers at Eunuch Gao.

"My lord, great wisdom poker at the nine-player table. Daibei Changsun's family won nine thousand tons, and they played life and death bets." After Gao Gonggong explained next to him, he saw Li Er waved his hand, and quickly retreated to the distance.

Such a magical term, Li Yuanxing couldn't understand it.

Wu Zhao explained to Li Yuanxing in a low voice, and Li Yuanxing understood.

In nine-handed Texas Hold'em, the life and death bet is that there is only one winner, and the table is considered to be over when there is a winner.One thousand tons of bets per person, the representative of Daibei Changsun's family is Changsun Wuji, the wisdom of this fox is definitely not small wisdom, this poker is about guts, luck, and more of a psychological contest.

So this is the most exciting game in the elite circle.

It is also because of this that it is named Great Wisdom Poker.The youngest person at that table was 50 years old.That one is the level of the best fox.

People like Cheng Motou and Heitan brother prefer dice, and the outcome depends entirely on luck.

Fighting wits is not their thing.

Li Er kept tapping his fingers on the table, and waited for Eunuch Gao to retreat a long way before he said to Li Yuanxing: "Wuji has publicly supported Chengqian, and Tai's financial resources have also been merged with Chengqian. I understand that it is impossible to accomplish great things with one person's strength."

"En!" Li Yuanxing just nodded, he didn't want to intervene in matters like the royal family.

"The last time Ke lost a store, the loss was not small. This time, the Xiao family has won [-] tons. This amount is the highest among all the companies. Of course, after everything is over, someone may surpass it, but Only Ke no longer gambles, the [-]-ton level allows him to dominate the Nanyang waterway."

"Then make the game circle bigger!" Li Yuanxing answered. . )
