Yipin Tang

Chapter 200 Turks Come to Korea
During this period, the thousands of Buddhist scriptures accumulated by Linglong Bookstore were quickly robbed, and there was even a fight because of this.

The price of one hundred pens made many onlookers secretly click their tongues, but no one felt that the price was unreasonable.Books are originally luxury goods. Usually, buying the most common "Analects of Confucius" costs several thousand dollars, which is the monthly income of many ordinary people. These Buddhist scriptures are many times more exquisite than those crude "Analects of Confucius", and these The Buddhist scriptures are also the textbooks of the School of All Nations.

In addition to the fanbang envoys who are snapping up frantically, there are also some people who believe in Buddhism who can't help but buy a copy. Seeing that a cart of Buddhist scriptures has become hundreds of thousands of money in just a short time, it is Li Chengqian, the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Also stunned for a moment.

The speed at which this kind of wealth is accumulating is really appalling!Those foreign envoys seemed to be scrambling to send money one by one.

Seeing Li Chengqian looking at him in shock, Wang Xiang said with a helpless expression on his complacent face: "I just said that these foreign people are stupid people with a lot of money..."

Although Li Chunfeng expected that Wang Xiang's move would be extraordinary, he still didn't expect it to be so astonishing. Hundreds of thousands of pennies, not to mention ordinary people, is also a huge sum of money for aristocratic families.

"This... I'm afraid there must be hundreds of thousands of guns?"

Seeing the golden light in Li Chengqian's eyes, Wang Xiang knew what he was thinking, and quickly said, "These Buddhist scriptures belong to Linglong Bookstore. His Royal Highness should know whose property Linglong Bookstore is, right?"

The golden light in Li Chengqian's eyes disappeared when he heard the words, he naturally knew that Linglong Bookstore was owned by Empress Changsun.

"You mean that these Buddhist scriptures belong to Linglong Bookstore?"

Wang Xiang nodded and said: "Yes, so you don't have to envy me, you should envy the empress."

Of course, Wang Xiang would not tell Li Chengqian that he was a part of Linglong Bookstore.

Although the hardcover version of Buddhist scriptures looks luxurious and exquisite, the cost of holding them is a little higher than that of ordinary books. In other words, because of advanced papermaking technology and movable type printing technology, the actual cost of printing these Buddhist scriptures is lower than that of other bookstores. The cost of ordinary books is high.

The cost of all the Buddhist scriptures added up is only a few hundred guan, which is nothing compared to the income of hundreds of thousands of guan, Wang Xiang has long been happy in his heart.

After the Buddhist scriptures were sold out, those foreign envoys became concerned about the enrollment quota of the Wan Guo Academy. After all, this was their main goal.

"I wonder what hobbies Marquis Jiayuan has?"

"This is a small gift prepared by our Khitan for the Marquis of Jiayuan, and I hope this little brother will pass it on for you."

"Our Baekje also prepared a small gift for Jiayuanhou. Also, the most beautiful Kamel girl in Baekje admires Jiayuanhou very much. I hope to have a long talk with Jiayuanhou..."

"Our Silla..."

Words like these vaguely reached Wang Xiang's ears, which made him secretly happy. He believed that the sum of these small gifts would definitely far exceed the money he earned from selling Buddhist scriptures.

Just when Wang Xiang was secretly happy, and Li Chengqian and Li Chunfeng shook their heads with emotion, a soldier suddenly came in to report.

"His Royal Highness, the Turkic mission has already arrived outside the city. In addition to the Turkic first warrior Tulu, the little Turkic Prince Ba Tuo and Princess Danqier are also here."

Li Chengqian was refreshed when he heard the words, put down his wine glass and said to Wang Xiang, "The Turks have finally come, Zixin will come with me to greet him."

Since the Tang Dynasty, this was the first time that a Turkic came to participate in the great pilgrimage. For the Tang Dynasty, this was the most proud and proud event of the great court meeting. No wonder he was so excited when Li Er asked Li Chengqian to be in charge of the affairs of the great court meeting.

There are only two days left before the Great Court Meeting, and the missions from various countries have arrived in Chang'an early, only the Turks have come late, obviously pretending to show their differences.Just after a big defeat, Wang Xiang had already seen them upset. Seeing that Li Chengqian planned to meet the Turkic mission in person, he shook his head and said, "You are the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, and the Turkic is just a subordinate of our Tang Dynasty. Defeated general, why does a small mission need to be greeted by the prince himself, just send someone casually."

After finishing speaking, Li Chengqian continued to sip the hot pot, seeing Wang Xiang's nonchalant expression, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face: "This is not good, my father told me that this year's court meeting must not lose the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, Moreover, Turkic is different from those small foreign countries outside, they are the most powerful country in the Western Regions after all, and the little prince and princess of Turkic are also here."

Wang Xiang looked up at Li Chengqian and asked, "So what?"

Li Chengqian was taken aback, and Wang Xiang continued to ask: "Who do you want to compare between Turkic and Datang?"

"Of course Datang is strong!"

"The little Turkic prince and princess, who is more honorable than the prince of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Of course it's my king..." This answer was a bit boastful, and Li Chengqian was a little embarrassed, but he already understood what Wang Xiang meant in his heart. If he went to greet him in person, he would really lose his status as the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

Wang Xiang is not interested in meeting the Turkic mission. Sitting here while eating hot pot while watching foreign envoys scrambling to give him gifts is a pleasure. Seeing that Li Chengqian gave up the idea of ​​meeting the Turkic mission in person, Wang Xiang continued I bury my head in the hot pot.

Then who should be sent to meet the Turkic mission?Li Chengqian sat down again, picked up his wine glass and frowned. He knew that Li Ke and Li Tai would definitely not be willing to listen to his orders, and he also didn't want Li Ke and Li Tai to show off. As for the other princes, they were not mediocre. Wuwei is just too young to make a decision...

"Zixin, who would you like to send to meet the Turkic mission?"

Hearing Li Chengqian asking himself, Wang Xiang raised his head and looked around, pointed to the soldier who came in to report and said, "Let's just go to him."

……

The Turkic mission had already arrived outside Chang'an City, and was stopping outside Yanping Gate at this time. Tulu rode a tall horse and looked at the tall Chang'an City Gate, with a more ferocious look on his face than before.The Tang Army defeated 30 Turkic cavalry in the First World War, and he was captured in Chang'an. A disgrace, Tulu secretly vowed in his heart that one day he would let the Turkic cavalry step down to Chang'an to wash away these disgraces.

But now, he had to endure, and he didn't dare to act rashly until he understood the terrifying Tianleizi.

"Tulu, why don't you go in?"

A childish yet arrogant voice came from the carriage behind him, seeming a little impatient.

"Prince Ba Tuo, please be calm, the Han people will send people to welcome us grandly."

This is the dignity of the Turks. Based on Tulu's understanding of the Tang Dynasty, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will at least send a prince with a high status to greet the Turks when they come to the Great Court Meeting. Maybe it is the prince. He heard that this year The Dachaohui is in charge of the prince of the Tang Dynasty.
