Prince of the Tang Dynasty: Signing in began with harming Li Shimin

Chapter 755 Restructuring the Gambling Game

The Western Regions are rich in materials, and war horses and other things are ten times better than those in the Central Plains.

Since Zhang Qian was ordered by Liu Che to go to the Western Regions, woolen products from Wusun, Yuezhi, Anxi and other countries have continuously flowed into the Central Plains through the Silk Road, and have been deeply loved by the nobles and common people of the Central Plains.

And when Zhang Qian returned to Chang'an from the Western Regions, Wusun Kingdom also sent envoys to follow Zhang Qian back to the court to thank him.

Along with them came not only gold, silver and jewelry, but also dozens of precious Wusun horses.

It should be known that at that time Wusun horse was a fine breed and well-known all over the world, and was called Tianma by the world.

It was not until General Li Guangli found the Dawan Horse from the Dawan Kingdom that the title of Tianma was replaced by the Dawan Horse.

Although Wusun horse is slightly inferior, it is still called Xiji horse by the world.

In the next ten years, these high-quality horses were transported to Guanzhong in batches for breeding, which greatly improved the combat capabilities of the Central Plains war horses.

If not, Liu Che would have to spend at least ten more years of hard work to defeat the Xiongnu.

During the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, Kang Juguo in the Western Regions also trafficked maiko to the Tang people.

Because it is good at dancing a kind of dance that turns left and right, and has a strong sense of rhythm, it was loved by the powerful and dignitaries at that time, and it naturally became a repertoire at noble banquets.

The world sees her as beautiful and incomparable, so she is also called Hu Xuannv, and she is not far behind the Silla maidservants at that time.

However, this is only the land Silk Road. In Jiangnan, which is far away, there is still a sea channel competing with it.

It’s just that it’s different from the countries in the Western Regions, the maritime merchants are more from Dashi and Persia, that is, Arabia and Iran in later generations.

People from the two countries mainly sold luxury goods such as gold and silver, jewelry, jade, and spices.

And not only that, the Japanese slaves, Goryeo, Silla and other countries also actively trafficked special products to sell in Tang Dynasty.

For example, during Tang Xuanzong's Dazhong period, "the Queen's Kingdom once paid tribute to the dragon oil silk, which has a unique shape and is not similar to Chang Zong".

It is said that this kind of silk is woven with a certain kind of oil-dyeing silk thread, which can prevent rain and water leakage, and is deeply loved by the royal family and nobles.

During the Jianzhong period of Tang Dezong, Dalin Guo also sold a Huojing sword to Tang Dezong.

According to folk rumors, the sword has light like electricity and the ability to cut gold and jade like mud, which is indeed very powerful.

As for the famous slaves of Kunlun slaves who have been passed down from ancient to modern times, they have been spread during the Zhenguan period.

Although his appearance is dark and thin, and his stature is short, he is also loved by nobles and merchants.

After all, as slaves, Kunlun slaves had no human rights in the Tang Dynasty.

No matter what the slave owner wants to do, the laws of the Tang Dynasty will not control it.

And the fun of people playing with people has not faded for thousands of years.

As a result, slave trade was prevalent around the Tang Dynasty, which was nearly a thousand years earlier than the European barbarian trade in blacks.

The sadness and blood and tears in this are naturally more serious than it.

Of course, these are all crimes committed by the big cannibals and the Persians, and have nothing to do with the well-educated Tang people.

After all, the people of the Central Plains, who were deeply educated by the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, did such things that both humans and gods were angry with.

In addition, Japanese slave merchants also transported their own gold, silver, bronze, pearls, antler, pine, fir, Luomu, Poria cocos, sulfur, etc. to the Tang Dynasty for sale.

Merchants from Silla and Baekje also shipped ginseng, bezoar, seal skin, morning glow oil, wood, charcoal, fish tooth brocade, medicinal materials, copper and other materials to Datang.

Although lucrative luxuries such as gemstones and spices were occupied by Persia and Persia, these remaining profits alone were enough to make businessmen from Silla, Baekje and other countries earn a lot of money.

Just looking at the transactions of the Tang court at that time, the import volume of goods to Silla ranked first, and this can already be concluded.

And based on this alone, it is enough to see that the profits of maritime merchants are more important than the benefits brought by the land Silk Road.

But all of this was before Li Jing appeared. Now that he had his pair of butterfly wings, the Haishang family would no longer be dominant.

Since the Jiangnan merchant wanted to play a game of hedging with him, he didn't mind turning the tables and restarting the game.

And after the lesson of treachery by Yangzhou businessmen, he naturally wants to sit in the manor this time.

Although it will be a little harder, at least it will not let people break free easily.

When he completely controls Datang's economic lifeline, even His Majesty Li Er will definitely not dare to touch him easily.

"The matter of the fallen soldiers will be handed over to Xiao Guizi.

Wang Xuance, sit down and talk. "

After arranging the compensation and pensions for the fallen soldiers, Li Jing called Wang Xuance to sit beside him.

It seems that such disrespectful behavior is a disaster rather than a blessing in the eyes of others, but Wang Xuance has already understood Li Jing's disposition, so naturally he doesn't care too much about it.

"Master!

Dawan Kingdom has already agreed to your request, and only those who hold the seal of the Eastern Palace can buy horses in Dawan Kingdom in the future.

Gaochang has also agreed to your conditions, and now the people have been recruited to plant a large number of Baidizi, which will be shipped to Chang'an next autumn.

The black oil apprentice you asked the apprentice to look for has also been found, but it is too difficult to dig out.

But things are rare and expensive, so I don't know whether it is good or bad.

And Hu Xuan's female disciple has already..."

"Stop!!!"

Wang Xuance talked eloquently.

Li Jingchu was very satisfied at first, but when he heard Hu Xuannv's name, his expression changed instantly and he waved his hand to stop.

There are certain things that can be done but cannot be said. How can he, with such a noble status as Li Jing, engage in disgusting activities such as human trafficking like the western barbarians.

At least in his opinion, everything he needs is bought with money, so what does it matter to him if the supply is not clean?

As long as you are out of sight and out of mind, there is nothing wrong with being an emperor wearing an invisibility cloak.

It's just that Yan Lingbin, Su's mother and others must not know about this matter, otherwise his magnificent and glorious image may be destroyed in an instant.

"Hu Xuannv can be handed over to the local horse bandits. You can get out of this matter as soon as possible and don't mention it again."

Li Jing thought for a while, and ordered very solemnly.

Hearing this, Wang Xuance frowned, and replied in embarrassment: "Master told me to do it naturally.

But master, the local horse bandits once robbed us, and 12 soldiers died in the hands of the horse bandits this time! "

"Oh~

Hehe~”

Li Jing sneered repeatedly when he heard the words, squinted his eyes and said viciously: "I have already told you just now:

Anyone who has a blood debt with my Tang Dynasty, no matter men, women, old or young, will be killed without mercy!

If there is one person, one person will be killed, if there is a family, the family will be copied, and if there is a family, the whole family will be destroyed.

In short, you have to remember that there is no secular etiquette when dealing with foreigners, only a sword in hand.

As long as your fist is big enough, you will bully his wife and daughter in public, and he will take it for granted. "

Hearing the words, Wang Xuance was thoughtful, and after a while he bowed his hands and said, "Master, don't worry, this disciple has made a note.

In the future, whenever someone dares to bully the people of the Tang Dynasty, the disciples will lead the army to destroy their country and slaughter their people! "

"Ha ha……

Wang Xuance, you destroyed a country by yourself, could it be taught by me? ! "

Li Jingwen's heart was shocked, and he suddenly found that he seemed to have become a part of history.

But if that was the case, wouldn't he want to find an unknown tomb to hide in the future?

Otherwise, after more than a thousand years, there will inevitably be a group of robbers in the name of archaeology, who will open his coffin for an autopsy.

He didn't want to have no peace after death, and be harassed by these grandsons who disrespected their ancestors.

It's just that this is a matter of decades later, and what is more important now is to find a proper person to lead Shanxi merchants.

As for the person recommended to him by the samurai, it seems that there are some troubles that need to be solved now.

This Dali Temple sky prison is not so easy to enter and exit.
