The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

"According to what you mean, aren't we determined to eat Tubo?"

Li Chengqian said with some surprise, you must know that in the official circles of the Tang Dynasty, many people were afraid of Tibet when they mentioned it. They always felt that we had failed at their hands, so we did not provoke them when there was nothing wrong.

"You can't say that. There are too many variables. The biggest variable in Datang is these aristocratic families. If they cause trouble for us, we will be in trouble."

When Li Xiang talked about these aristocratic families, his eyes showed a sharp look. Because of the foreign war, he didn't do anything to them. When he was free, he had to weaken them step by step.

"They have become much more honest recently. Do you think we can do this? We send troops to defeat Tubo. Don't you think they are not strong? If I suggest to your grandfather that we defeat Tubo, then what will happen to our Tang Dynasty?" The territory is much larger.”

As long as a person has such thoughts, a few words cannot hide them. Now that Li Chengqian heard about the situation in Tubo, he wanted to defeat Tubo, so that there would be no threat around Datang.

"The land there is not very good. It is far from ours in Guanzhong. It will be of little use after being conquered. On the contrary, there are many people who need to live on it, and we may still have to support them."

Li Xiang shook his head. According to the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, it would be difficult to defeat Tubo. It would take at least three to five years of preparation. According to the rate of return, the rate of return for defeating Tubo would not be high. High, if we want to find a high return rate, we might as well defeat Goguryeo.

Of course, none of these things can be completed overnight. The most important thing now is the canonization ceremony of the emperor’s grandson. After working for a while, it’s time for us to reap the rewards. As long as this matter is not completed, other Everything can be put off later.

The father and son discussed other matters and went back to their houses to settle down.

"What have you prepared? Do you want to give it as a gift?"

When he returned to his yard, Li Xiang saw Miss Meng Ling preparing things. It seemed that they were all for girls. As the eldest grandson of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the person who could let him give gifts should be the princess in the palace. , but these things don’t seem to be for princesses.

"His Highness is busy with big things outside every day. How can he remember some things at home? Didn't His Highness get engaged to Miss Cheng? This is Miss Cheng's birthday gift. The day after tomorrow is Miss Cheng's birthday."

Miss Mengqin came out from the other side, holding two pieces of luxurious silk and satin in her hands. These things were prepared according to the rules, but this year is different. In the past, the birthdays of the daughters of the imperial princes were the same as the gifts we gave them. One share, but now that she is the daughter-in-law of the East Palace, the gift will naturally be three cents heavier.

Is my little wife’s birthday coming up?

Li Xiang has never met this Miss Cheng. If he had known that this was the case, he should have gone and had a look when he went to Cheng Yaojin's house that day.

"Add a mirror, and this perfume, with roses."

Li Xiang took out a glass bottle from his pocket. This was also the perfume he had just made. In the Tang Dynasty, the most precious thing was the glass bottle. There were no glass bottles at all. Glass bottles looked more precious than glass bottles. The main reason is that the light transmittance is relatively good.

"Oh my God, what kind of rare treasure is this?"

The maid next to Li Xiang had also seen the world in the entire Tang Dynasty. When she saw the glass bottle in Li Xiang's hand, she stared with two big eyes, as if she had seen some rare treasure.

Li Xiang is very satisfied with this effect. This thing is also a kind of luxury product. No matter what kind of business he is doing now, he is in urgent need of a lot of money. Li Xiang still needs to use luxury goods to make money, just like Datang Tianjiang.

"smell good!"

Miss Meng Ling smelled the fragrance. She had never smelled this kind of spice before. Although they used the most expensive spices in the Tang Dynasty, compared with this smell, it always felt a bit impure, or it could not be said to be this kind. The height of the liquid.

"You two have a bottle each. I have prepared it for you a long time ago, but according to your knowledge, how much can this kind of perfume be sold outside?"

Li Xiang took out two more bottles and applied them on the necks and backs of the hands of the two girls.

"Even if there is no such fragrant water, this bottle alone can be sold for a thousand guan."

Miss Meng Ling is telling the truth. Glass bottles can be sold for several hundred guan in the lobby, but the light transmittance is not very good. If it is this kind of glass bottle, it should be fine for 1,000 guan.

After hearing what these two girls said, Li Xiang knew how much it should be sold for, and the perfume inside would not cost him more than 2,000 guan.

Li Xiang thought about it carefully in his heart. With the few princesses in the palace, plus a few princesses in the palace, he only needs to take out a few bottles to advertise himself. The female relatives of the upper class in Chang'an City We all often play together. As long as one person has it, others will definitely be crazy to buy it. When the time comes, it will be available for sale on Zhidaobao.

Although the auction can bring more money to Li Xiang and bring about greater social topics, now Li Xiang needs a lot of money to enter the bank to help the court with the exchange business, so there will be no auction this time. What's more, the price of two thousand guan is already not low.

Cheng Mansion

Before dawn, the gift-giving team has already begun to line up. Today is the birthday of Cheng Yaojin’s youngest daughter. Normally, it won’t disturb so many people. If it were Cheng Yaojin’s mother’s birthday, so many people would come. It's fair to say that now it's just a child's birthday, so why is it like this?

The reason why everyone came to give gifts in unison was because they had just received news that the emperor had named Li Xiang the grandson of the emperor, and all kinds of clothes had been brought back.

Then the young lady of the Cheng family has also improved. She was originally the eldest grandson of the emperor, and now she is the grandson of the emperor. Although there is only one word difference, the status is very different.

There are some smart people in Chang'an City. If they don't understand this, they won't be able to gain a foothold in Chang'an City. Therefore, these people come early in the morning to give gifts so as not to be too late to flatter themselves and get up early then. If you catch a late gathering, it will make people laugh out loud...
