Li Shimin

As long as Li Xuan can pay, he can talk about anything in Japan.

Then, remembering the most important thing, Inugami Mita took a cautious look at Li Xuan, and asked, "May I ask His Royal Highness King Jin, how do you buy and sell the territory or islands of our country? What is the price?"

Hearing this, Li Xuan frowned and thought for a long time before raising his head, and said: "Around Chang'an City in my Tang Dynasty, one mu of land costs fifty guan. However, the farther away from Chang'an City, the lower the price. When you arrive in Qingzhou, a Mu of land can only be worth [-] guan, which is directly reduced by half.

In this way, the country of Wa is more than tens of thousands of miles away from my Tang Dynasty, and an acre of land can only be worth one at most! "

"One mu consistent?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Li Baoding and the others couldn't help but twitch their eyelids, as expected, the master is ruthless!

Even Inugami Mita couldn't help being stunned, and quickly and cautiously asked again: "Please forgive me, His Highness Prince Jin, one mu of land is only consistent, is it a bit too little?"

"A lot!"

Li Xuan shook his head with a chuckle, "Even if this king really buys the land from Niwa Kingdom, and this king can't send people to go all the way to cultivate it, it's not too valuable to this king!"

"and……"

Suddenly, Li Xuan seemed to think of something, so he looked at Inugami Mita again, and said, "Inugami, the price this king mentioned is only the price of your Japanese land. If it is a barren island, or those wild places , ten acres can only be given to Yiguan at most!"

"This……"

Now, Inugami Mita was dumbfounded again, and stared blankly at Li Xuan.

"His Royal Highness King Jin, ten mu is consistent, and the envoy can't..."

Before Inuami Mita could finish speaking, Li Xuan waved his hand with determination on his face.

"This kind of price is already the highest price that this king can offer. Your Wa country land is of no use to this king! If you hadn't seen that your Wa country is so barren, this king would not even plan to buy your Wa country's land!

In the eyes of this king, a thousand acres of land in your Wa Kingdom is not as good as a single mu of land in the Tang Dynasty. You can go back and tell the king of the Wa Kingdom about this matter. If you agree, you will sign the land sale certificate. Forget it, this king has always been very reasonable and never buys or sells by force! "

"Yes!"

Seeing that Li Xuan didn't have any intention of negotiating, Inugami Mita could only respond bitterly.

As the most impoverished country in Wa, not only Inugami Mita had no money to bargain with Li Xuan, but even Emperor Shu Mei of Wa and Soga Ezo came in person, and they had to be obedient to a powerful rich man like Li Xuan Please.

After Inugami Mitasu and the two Honglu Temple officials left with a map of the Japanese country full of marks, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others looked at Li Xuan with puzzled faces.

"Dare to ask Master, why do you have to buy the land of the Wa Kingdom?"

"I always pay for one mu of land, or even ten mu of land, do you think it's not worthwhile?"

Li Xuan asked with a strange face.

"But master, the country of Wa is thousands of miles away from my Tang Dynasty, even if you buy it, it's useless!"

Li Chengqian said slowly.

On the side, Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others nodded in agreement.

Indeed, in this era when the Great Tang Dynasty was the kingdom of heaven and the most prosperous in the world.Except for Datang, all the surrounding capitals are barren and useless.

Even, it takes a lot of manpower to manage.

Only the Western Regions, Turks, Tuyuhun, Goguryeo and other vassal states adjacent to the Tang Dynasty came to invade the border from time to time, and coupled with some feuds, the Tang Dynasty would take action against those vassal states.

As for the Wa country, it is far away and barren, and in the eyes of Datang, it is the kind of hozen in a barren land, and it is still uncivilized, so it is not taken seriously at all.

Even, because it's too far away, they don't even have the slightest interest in occupying its territory.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the nobles of the Tang family, only Li Xuan has some interest in the Wa Kingdom.

"Who said it's useless?"

Li Xuan sneered, "Buying it is my king's land, and when the two giant steel ships in Qingzhou are built, I can take the ship to the country of Wa.

At that time, the king of the land of the Wa country can do whatever he wants!Moreover, even if it is [-] mu of land, it only costs me a thousand guan, which is the price of a bottle of liquor.This king sold a bottle of white wine to the Japanese country, and he earned it back!

And in Shonai, how much does it cost to brew a bottle of liquor?After careful calculation, isn't the land of these Wa kingdoms given away for nothing? "

"Besides, after Wa Kingdom sold the land to me, as long as I don't take over it for a year, do you think Wa Kingdom will really feel that those lands are mine? Maybe, they will still do anything wrong on this king's land. !

In this way, wouldn't the king have an excuse to attack the Wa country? ..."

"This……"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others couldn't help being stunned.

"But master, what's the use of conquering the Wa Kingdom? Could it be possible to sell those Wa people to serve as slaves for me in the Tang Dynasty?"

As he spoke, Cheng Chusi couldn't help but think of something, grinned, stared, and looked wretched.

"You bastard, the Wa country is a country after all, bigger than Goguryeo, why is there no point in attacking it?"

Li Xuan couldn't help but glared at Cheng Chusi.

"Master, is it possible to make money by attacking the Wa Kingdom?" Cheng Chusi was a little puzzled.

Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others all looked puzzled.

The country of Wa is so far away from the Tang Dynasty, if it sends troops, it will consume a lot of food and supplies.

Every time you send troops, you lose money, which is not worthwhile at all!

"As long as the Wa Kingdom is conquered, how much food and supplies will be lost, and cannot be taken from the Wa Kingdom?"

Li Xuan glanced at it with disgust on his face, these bastard apprentices he taught were all brains!

"Moreover, after the Wa country is destroyed, even if the country is far away from the Tang Dynasty, there is no need to send officials to manage the country. If any family is willing to take over, it can be sold to that family. As a fief, how much must be paid to the court every year?" Taxes and food.

Besides, the country of Wa does not have silver mines and iron mines, so the captives of the country of Wa can dig out those iron ore, silver mines, and gold mines and transport them to Datang.

If there is no aristocratic family or nobles to take over, you can also send an army to protect the country of Wa, and the king of the country of Wa will still rule the country of Wa, but the country of Wa must support that army every year!

Moreover, I have to pay taxes to Datang...

I don't need to go into details about this, but according to the nature of those bandits and murderers of you Aye, you are much more experienced than this master in doing these things! "

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others were speechless.

I waited for Aye to go into the city to grab some property after winning the battle, but I didn't think so, and started to calculate directly from the envoy sent by others!

"Master, what should I do if I am impeached by those censors?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others were obviously a little moved, but they couldn't help asking cautiously when they thought of something.

Chapter 490

"Impeach?"

Li Xuan was startled, and looked at Li Chengqian blankly. He didn't expect that Li Chengqian, a bastard, would still be so timid and pedantic after teaching by example for so long!

"So what about Yushi's impeachment, one of you is the prince, the other is the county king, and the other is the eldest son of the county king, and the rest are the eldest sons of the Duke's family, which one is not more respected than Yushi?

Moreover, not to mention the impeachment of one censor, even if all the censors are impeached, what can you do?Is it possible that His Majesty will blame you for such a great achievement in opening up the territory of the Tang Dynasty? "

"This time, Li Jing was impeached by the censor. His Majesty didn't punish him. He also named Li Jing as Dr. Zuo Guanglu, on behalf of the Duke, and gave him [-] pieces of silk, and even Shiyi added another [-]. household?

As long as you have contributed to the Great Tang and have not harmed the people of the Great Tang, what are you afraid of in the Great Tang? "

"Thank you master, I understand!"

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others hurriedly bowed their hands and saluted with joy on their faces. At the same time, their expressions flickered. It was obvious that the bad water in their stomachs was constantly bubbling!

"There is one more thing, you need to explain to Honglu Temple!" Li Xuan said again.

"Please tell me, master!" Li Chengqian said.

"All the envoys of the vassal states who come to study in my Tang Dynasty must take a lesson in respecting and loving the Tang Dynasty.

For this class, it is necessary to invite a great Confucian who can speak eloquently, to quote the classics, and let the envoys of the vassal states learn to respect their teachers and respect their teachings.

No matter how much knowledge they have learned about my Great Tang, they must first make them respect my Great Tang, and even if they can make them feel that my Great Tang is more important than their respective countries, then Honglu Temple will make a great contribution! "

Speaking of this, Li Xuan looked solemn.

"Absolutely don't let them, the envoys of the vassal state, learn my knowledge and skills of Tang Dynasty, and use them to invade my Tang Dynasty instead!"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others couldn't help being dumbfounded.

Immediately, he bowed his hands to Li Xuan with admiration.

"Please rest assured, Master, I will definitely report this matter to Aye!"

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and then looked disgusted again.

"Stop talking nonsense, if you have nothing to do, go to practice against Xue Rengui, or manage your own Zhuangzi. My master is very upset to see your idle behavior!"

"Hey, the teacher's lesson is that I will retire!"

For Li Xuan's disgust, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and the others had already practiced a thick-skinned appearance, so they just laughed and ran outside in a hurry.

Li Xuan's words were enough for them to digest for several days.

At the same time, it also gave them a lot of inspiration!

……

Following Inugami Mita, he left Chang'an City with several carts of goods and headed for Qingzhou.

The news that the King of Jin wanted to use money to buy the land of the Wa Kingdom was also spread in Chang'an City.

All the dignitaries of the aristocratic families, after hearing this, only a small half of the aristocratic families were full of ridicule.

And more than half of the aristocratic families couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and then they took out the crude world map one by one, and began to look at it.

King Jin's operation opened a novelty door for them!

Not only can you use force to attack those vassal states, but you can also use money to buy them.

Moreover, they don't need to buy much, they only need to buy the last city!

But, how to buy the city?And who to buy from?

Thinking about it, the people of the family couldn't help but feel a little bit troubled.

They were reluctant to stay away from Datang, and they didn't have much money to buy those vassal states and cities near Datang!

Regarding these, Li Xuan did not pay attention to them.

However, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others did not let go of these new things.

Even if it is snowing heavily outside, if you hear something interesting, you will come to Li Family Manor and tell Li Xuan about it with great interest.

An elder from a certain family directly brought hundreds of people to buy an island in Baekje and Silla, but both Baekje and Silla offered a sky-high price, and the elder of that family came back full of anger; They actually took five thousand servants and households to report to the court and went directly to attack Goguryeo. It took only a month on the road, and then they saw that Goguryeo had begun to guard against death...

Regarding this, Li Xuan either sneered or said some strange remarks, but Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others, after a little thought, would be shocked!

The number of times you come to Lijiazhuang is more diligent!

"Did the Li family of Longxi send troops?"

On this day, Li Xuan didn't know what he thought of, so he asked directly.

"Longxi Li family?"

Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others on the side couldn't help but froze.

"Huh?" A trace of doubt flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

"Return to master, the Li family in Longxi sent [-] troops to attack Tuyuhun!"

Li Chongyi replied directly.

"How is it?"

Li Xuan asked quickly.

"Returning to Master, I heard that the Li family in Longxi captured the two cities of Chishui and Yuanhua in Tuyuhun, and captured more than 5 Tuyuhun people and more than [-] cattle, sheep, horses and other livestock!"

Li Chongyi said again.

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others at the side couldn't help but look envious.

"Sure enough, the five surnames and Qiwang family are the most powerful!"

Li Xuan praised directly.

"Master, you still praise the Li family in Longxi?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others couldn't help but be puzzled.
