"Greetings to Your Highness."

About sixty miles away from the army of the Tubo court, Xiao Liuzi was already waiting here with his people. He also collected a lot of goodies there. This time he wanted to transport them back with Li Xiang's team, mainly because There are too many good things in this batch. If we transport them all by ourselves, the road will be uneven.

"I have already negotiated with Songtsen Gampo. They need a batch of grain. I guess the grain warehouses of these chieftains are about to burst, right?"

After Li Xiang finished speaking, Chang Sun Chong and the others next to him were even more surprised. Are you not planning to transport grain from the Tang Dynasty to this place? You have reached a deal with Songtsen Gampo. Do you need to use Mr. Toast's food?

"Going back to Your Highness, their grain depot has long been out of capacity. Now the slaves are working day and night to put all the grain in it. Originally, their grain was used for trading with various parts of Tubo. Now the price It’s almost the same as Chang’an City, and even cheaper than Chang’an City.”

Xiaoliuzi heard Li Xiang say something before, but he was not very clear about this plan. Anyway, if you buy food now, it is basically a cabbage price.

"You purchase grain according to this amount. After purchasing the grain, send people to transport it to the border of Tuyuhun and Tubo. Then you don't have to worry about the rest."

Hearing what Li Xiang said, everyone finally understood. You guys are really good at playing. You bought the grains of the toast masters and then sold them to Songtsen Gampo, but the price in the middle has already doubled by dozens. It's twice as much. We also saved money on transportation. I don't know how much we made inside and outside. It can be regarded as the Tubo people who are unlucky to be like this by you.

"I obey my orders."

Xiao Liuzi didn't know what was going on here, but he knew what to say after he returned, that is, our young master saw that your food was almost rotten and moldy. Although our Tang Dynasty was not short of food, our young master still gave some of it. Money, if you want to buy your food, the price cannot be at the normal price. If you want all this food to rot, then you can continue to throw it here. If you still want to sell it for some money, then you can only It's three pounds for one penny.

Xiao Liuzi can be regarded as a business wizard. After just discussing with Li Xiang, he already knew how to operate this thing, but he was still a little unsure. When he said this, everyone around him He laughed out loud. It’s not that he didn’t join the family, Li Xiang was a top-notch profiteer, and the apprentices he taught were even more profiteers.

The master and the apprentice reviewed all the plans again, and then they were ready to part ways here if nothing happened. Xiao Liuzi took his people back to buy grain, and Li Xiang also left him 300 guards. You have to rely on yourself. Anyway, there are many people in Li Xiang's system. Rather than idle in the system, these people might as well come out and do some serious work.

As for Changsun Chong and the others, they had known that the master and the apprentice had something to say, so they went to the front to wait. As for the people in Luhatai, they had no idea what Li Xiang was doing here, and he didn't know what he was doing here. Remember what Songtsen Gampo said and what Li Xiang said is the imperial edict. You should listen to it honestly in the future and never violate it.

The next journey is relatively smooth. Because of the emperor's decree, General Qin Qiong will continue to stay here. Of course, Li Shimin's considerations and Li Xiang also understand that according to Li Xiang's idea, there must be a general in the border area. OK.

The situation in Tubo is a bit chaotic. No matter who wins or loses, we have to prepare for the worst. Once something irreversible happens, we must intervene with force. If there is no general, maybe Many things are not done well.

"Will you guys follow me back to Chang'an? Or will you stay? The choice is yours. No matter how you choose, I will find a way to help you move around after returning to Chang'an."

When we arrived at General Qin Qiong's tent, Li Xiang took a look at how these people were selected. They are all outstanding young generals of the second generation of the Tang Dynasty. Whether they stay here or go north to Goguryeo, they should all have their own abilities. , and they can all get credit. According to Li Xiang's idea, there should be two talents left here. General Qin Qiong cannot do everything.

"Your Highness is right. Chang'an City knows you are here and won't send anyone here for me. You have to leave two of you behind. Huaiyu is not allowed to stay."

After General Qin Qiong finished speaking, there was no choice. Li Xiang only had three men. Changsun Chong and Yuchi Baolin had to stay. Qin Huaiyu might have to follow Li Xiang northward. This was also a rule of the Tang Dynasty. , Qin Huaiyu is Qin Qiong's son, and cannot stay in Qin Qiong's military camp, mainly because he cannot grow up with his own father, and can only grow up with others.

"I will obey my orders."

Yuchi Baolin and Changsun Chong didn't say anything. They knelt down in a daze. For them, there was basically no difference between going north to fight and garrisoning here. If they had to choose, they would still stay here. The Tuyuhun Prairie is better. After all, the two of them have learned about things on the plateau. We have acquired a hundred miles of land from the Tubo Kingdom, which is just right for our soldiers to exercise.

"Father……"

Qin Huaiyu actually wanted to stay with his father. What would it be like to go north to fight? Qin Huaiyu didn't know yet. The reason why Qin Qiong asked Qin Huaiyu to follow him to the north was because he wanted the boy to have some experience and see more of the great rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty, so that he could have greater ambitions in the future, not to mention following Li Xiang. Around you, are you still worried about not having any merit?

This time the three young generals followed Li Xiang to Tubo. They had already received rewards from above. All three of them were awarded the title of Baron of the Founding County, which is the title of Baron. Although they are the lowest among the noble titles, at least they are already the highest. There was a start. This title was not an ordinary title, but one that could be passed on to his son.

After these people have achieved meritorious service, they already have a unique taste the day they are born, but the title is for life. When you die, the people below cannot inherit it, but now you are awarded the title because of military merit. It can be passed on to sons, which is equivalent to earning a future for future generations. How can the three of them be unhappy? This is the benefit of following Li Xiang...
