Chapter 120
After the Tuyuhun envoy left, Li Cha glared at the special forces member who was acting as a buddy, and said calmly:
"It's a good thing to have compassion. But it depends on who it is used on. After this incident is over, I will apply for confinement for two days."

"Would they really spend three pennies to buy this briquette stove for their own people? Anyone with a discerning eye knows in their hearts that what they bought was iron."

"What do you buy iron for? It just means that these vassal states don't want to be controlled by the Tang Dynasty honestly. They don't want to kill me and the Tang Dynasty? Do you understand?"

"Yes! Captain, this subordinate knows it's wrong."

Hearing that confinement was going to happen, the faces of the special forces team members immediately collapsed.

"If you can no longer control your emotions and write all your emotions on your face, then you don't have to stay in the special forces anymore. Go and become a centurion in the Polu Army."

Li Cha's flat voice sounded again.

"No, Captain, this subordinate knows his mistake. This subordinate knows what to do."

This time, the special forces team member was really in a hurry.

"Well, go and get the exchange details, I'll change it. It's actually cheaper. Fortunately, this is the first fool. Otherwise, it will be a big loss."

"Okay, you go on to entertain the next idiot client."

After counting, in two days, this small briquette stove shop occupied by Li Cha ordered [-] pieces of briquette stoves.

As little as three thousand five thousand, as many as ten thousand and twenty thousand.

The so-called elder in Tuyuhun was the one who was tricked the most by Li Cha.

One hundred thousand pieces of briquette stoves were exchanged for more than 20 adult cattle and more than 20 sheep for Datang.

The only thing that makes Li Cha dissatisfied is that there are fewer horses, less than [-].Most of them are middle and lower horses.

From this point of view, these foreign envoys are not really stupid.Know the importance of war horses to Datang.

Seeing that the country that should be able to be cheated has almost been cheated, Li Cha announced the closure.

Of course it wasn't just his shop that was closed.

From the time he decided to make a fool of himself, all the shops selling briquette stoves in the East and West Twelve Squares of Chang'an City Street have been closed.

Until next month, the envoys of various countries ordered to leave.

Pretending to be the shopkeeper is enough to enjoy the addiction, and it's enough to make a fool of it.He still has a lot to do.

For example, let the blacksmith shops and workshops in Chang'an City and surrounding cities.Give him all orders for the production of these [-] briquette stoves.

For example, let his second brother, the emperor, quickly arrange for people to receive this batch of cattle, sheep, and war horses.

When Li Cha told his second brother the emperor all this, and asked him to find someone to take over these cattle, sheep, and war horses.

No matter how calm Li Shimin was, if he wanted to maintain the majesty of the emperor, he couldn't keep his mouth shut.

For a while, he even stuttered.

"Third brother, is this true? How many cattle and sheep do we have in the entire Tang Dynasty... Isn't this too outrageous?"

"Wait, let me do the math. A briquette stove costs 150 ren, and you exchanged 30 guan for [-] guan, or even more valuable cattle and sheep? Are these foreigners really so stupid?"

"Stupid? They are not stupid. It is more appropriate to use war horses, especially high-grade war horses. Why don't they trade them? Only cattle and sheep?"

"Stupid? Why would they be fooled? Seeing that they can bring back the iron, their IQs are all excited. What does this mean? It means that the heart of the Tang Dynasty is not dead."

"Just these sons of tigers and wolves, if I don't cheat them, who will I cheat?"

"Why don't those vassal states that really surrendered? Why don't you attack my heart of the Tang Dynasty? Why buy something that looks like a lump of iron with three pennies? Is it worth it?"

There was some anger in Li Cha's words.I feel that I have destroyed two countries, but I still haven't dispelled the wolfish ambitions of these people.

In fact, Li Cha was really wrong this time, and he can't say all of them, but most of them bought these so-called irons and went back, and they really weren't against Datang.It is against their surrounding tribes.

"The third brother is right, I will wipe out these white-eyed wolves who can't get enough to eat sooner or later."

"Third brother, this time it was a good trick. But second brother really convinced you this time. If you come here a few more times, your academy is definitely richer than my treasury."

Li Shimin said with a smile and a little envy.

"I'll come here a few more times. This kind of thing is only once, and I don't know how many envoys from the vassal kingdom will lose their heads because of it."

"It seems that you refused to accept me some time. Besides, my college is your college, and the money is yours. As long as you don't delay the scientific research funds, you can control it as you like."

Li Cha gave Li Shimin a white look, and said casually.

"Hehe, yes, it belongs to me, it belongs to you, and it belongs to the entire Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin laughed.

"Not yours, mine. Arrange people to go to the border between the two countries to receive those cattle, sheep and war horses. This is the list."

Li Cha handed over the detailed list to Li Shimin.

"Well, I'll arrange it later. It's just that there are so many cattle and sheep, how will the third brother plan to arrange it?"

After Li Shimin replied, he continued to ask.

"Ask me about this too? I don't care, arrange it however you like. Didn't you say that there is a shortage of cattle? Now that I've got it for you, you still want to bother me?"

Li Cha said angrily.

"That won't work. After all, it belongs to the third brother. It is neither my property nor the country's. How can I arrange it arbitrarily? This is the rule, and the third brother should talk about it himself."

Li Shimin also said bluntly.

Indeed, it is better to separate personal and national things.

Even if Li Cha doesn't care, he, Li Shimin, must establish this rule.

"What you do is troublesome."

"How about this, you just keep those 20 sheep in the big military camps in various places, and treat them as rewards."

"I don't need to talk about the war horse, you look at the distribution."

"As for the cattle, I don't know if all the cattle they send can be used to cultivate the land. If you can use them, you can send them to reclaim wasteland, and if you can't use them, you can raise them and kill them for meat."

"Is that okay?"

Li Cha was a little impatient, he had other things to do, and he didn't want to waste time on this matter.

"It's still not good, third brother. A prince who condolences and rewards the army in his personal capacity is a sign of rebellion. It means that you, Li Yuanba, dare to do this. But it is always bad to leave such a mark in the history books."

Li Shimin objected again.

"I said Li Er Er, are you annoying? This is not okay, that is not okay, what do you want? You don't want it, I will send it all to the college for me, can I let the students in the college eat beef and mutton every day? "

Li Cha was really impatient this time.

"Hahaha. Li Laosan, Li Laosan, you also have today, and you also have troubled times."

Li Shimin laughed.

I finally got back a round in front of this third brother.It's not easy.

"Go, go, go. When I'm not annoying, I'm annoying every day. Tell me, how do you want to arrange these cattle, sheep, and war horses?"

"It's not easy. According to the price of cattle, sheep, and war horses, my Tang treasury bought them, and then sent them to the soldiers. You can't even think of this, and you still have the face to say that I will obey you every time. This time I'm not convinced. Hahaha."

Li Shimin, who got back a round, was really happy.

"As for the money, just move it from the national treasury to my internal treasury. Anyway, what's mine is yours. If you want to use it, just ask for it."

Li Shimin said to Li Cha.

"Okay, you can do whatever you want. So decide."

Li Cha said angrily.

"Second brother, do you have any urgent matters to deal with? If not, let's go see Brother Qin."

Li Cha didn't want to look at Li Shimin's smug face anymore, and waited for him to answer, and spoke directly.

"Okay, then I will accompany you for a walk."

Li Shimin replied.
