"Spend money to buy?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wo Ezo and the others were taken aback for a moment.

They ate and never spent enough money to buy them.Moreover, they have no money in their hands now.

Subconsciously, he turned his eyes to Inugami Mita who was beside him.

Inuami Mita was overjoyed, he was familiar with this matter!

He hurriedly bowed his hands to Li Xuan, "Dare to ask His Royal Highness King Jin, I don't have any money in my hand now, so I don't know how to buy it?"

"One hundred guan for a chicken, one hundred guan for a duck, one hundred guan for a catty of pig meat, one hundred guan for a catty of yak meat, one hundred guan for a catty of dried pickles, and one pack of seasonings for one guan... As for the iron pot and firewood, as well as the rice, it is a gift from the king to you!"

Li Xuan said slowly.

"Thank you, Your Highness King Jin!"

Inugami Mita quickly beamed with joy, and then translated to Soga Ezo and others.

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others on the side couldn't help but open their mouths again, the master is too dark!

And here, after discussing with Suga Ezo, Inugami Mita and others, they quickly agreed.

In one breath, I ordered five chickens, five ducks, and five fish, as well as a pound of dried pickles and a pound of dried yak meat.

Although they knew that these meats were very expensive, they were used to extravagance and didn't take these prices to heart.Moreover, there are many lice, and I am not afraid of itching.

Anyway, Suga Ezo and the others are in this state now.

Ever since they saw that the warriors who were chasing up from the Wa country were easily repulsed by Cheng Chusi and others in a playful way, they had already resigned to their fate and just wanted to live comfortably!

The Datang people with bombs are so powerful that they can't beat them at all!

But soon, they were wrong.

The chickens and ducks that Datang gave them were freshly thawed out of the ice, raw!There are only fish, which are fresh sea fish caught from the sea, but they are also raw, and they are not even slaughtered and cleaned!

Su Wo Ezo and the others couldn't help being angry again.

But Li Xuan was indifferent.

"You are captives, this king is already very kind to sell these precious meats to you, and you want my chef to make delicious food for you?

However, if you want to eat ready-made ones, you can ask for a price!Every fish, or every chicken, plus a hundred! "

"Thank you, Your Highness King Jin!"

Su Wo Eizo and other Japanese envoys readily agreed.

Soon, pots of delicious fish soup or chicken soup were served in front of Suga Ezo and the others.

Seeing this, Su Wo Eizo and Lord Shu Ming were full of excitement.

Immediately, there were tears in his eyes, and he gobbled it up for a while.

At this time, they finally understood why these Tang people were so disdainful of their Japanese food.

Compared with the delicacies of the Tang Dynasty, the food of their Japanese country is indeed pig food, and even pigs don't want to eat it!

"Master, the homes of these Japanese people have been copied by us. Now you sell these Japanese people so much money, how can they pay back?"

Cheng Chusi, Li Chengqian and others looked at Li Xuan with doubts on their faces.

As for Gao Biaoren at the side, he had already pricked up his ears and listened quietly.

……

Chapter 541 Your Majesty, King Jin is back!

"They have run out of money, but Wa still has so much land and so many people!"

Li Xuan laughed lightly and said slowly.

Suddenly, everyone opened their mouths wide again.

Looking at Li Xuan, his face was full of weirdness.

My wife is really far-sighted!

This King Jin is so black-bellied?

Let an entire country make money for you?

This kind of thing, just thinking about it, everyone feels very exciting!

Moreover, there is no resistance to Li Xuan's operation!

In the hearts of Tang people, all feudal states are barbarians, so there is no need to treat them as human beings!

Along the way, I passed by Tsushima Island, passed by Baekje, and then turned in. After drifting on the sea for more than a month, I finally saw Datang and Qingzhou Harbor.

The Datang Mission went to sea, and returned within less than four months.

The governor of Qingzhou led a group of officials to meet him at the harbor.

Regarding these, Li Xuan didn't pay attention to them, and threw them all to Gao Biaoren. He himself brought people back to his residence in Qingzhou, and fell asleep. He slept for two full days and ate vegetables for two days.

Then, it started to set off, heading for Chang'an.

Along the way, it was mighty, and this time it was directly hundreds of large carriages, galloping towards Chang'an.

And in the past two days in Qingzhou, Suwo Xiyi, Lord Shu Ming and others owed Li Xuan thousands of guan.And these two days, these Japanese hozens finally know what is enjoyment?What is eating!

In addition, since Li Xuan didn't speak in Qingzhou, Gao Biaoren didn't dare to make the decision without authorization, revealing to the outside world the matter of the king of the Wa Kingdom and all the important ministers.

Therefore, all of them are the Japanese envoys sent by the king of Jin to the Tang Dynasty.

As for reporting to Li Shimin?

Although Gao Biaoren is the envoy, there is still a Great Tang King Jin and a Great Tang Prince, and it is not his turn to report.

But Li Xuan and Li Chengqian were both forgotten.

As a result, only one memorial from the Tang Dynasty envoy came back from the country of Wa, and it was handed into the Hall of Liangyi.

……

ten days later.

Tai Chi Palace, inside Liangyi Hall.

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Li Xiaogong, Cheng Chusi and others were all sitting on the sofa, each holding a glass of white wine, drinking happily.

Li Xuan was not in the village, and so much baijiu was brewed every day in Lijiazhuang.

Therefore, under the coercion and stalking of several unscrupulous old thieves, the old housekeeper Li Chang could only send more than 100 bottles of liquor to the palace every month.

"Hiss...comfortable! Your Majesty, how many bombs have been produced in the Weapons Supervisory Center now? Old Cheng has been waiting for two months. If there are enough bombs, I can take Goguryeo this year!"

"Your Majesty, it is not impossible to take down Goguryeo, Baekje, and even the three kingdoms of Silla!"

Cheng Zhijie and Li Xiaogong were replaced by Li Shimin.

There is no need for a king of a county or a duke of a state to spend all his time in Cave City and Stone City.

Even, deep in the hearts of Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji, there was still some hope that those Goguryeo people suddenly went crazy, and then took the cave city and Shicheng.

Then Datang really had the opportunity to send troops.

"Your Majesty, more than 2 bombs have only been built now!"

On the side, facing Li Shimin's question, Du Ruhui said hastily.

"Twenty thousand?"

Cheng Zhijie looked happy.

"Your Majesty, [-] bombs, [-] hand bombs, [-] arrow bombs, so many bombs, give me another [-] army, and I can take down Tuyuhun. Or, Baekje and Goguryeo can also try Give it a try!"

On the side, Li Xiaogong, Hou Junji and the others were all eager to try.

Now, after seeing the power of the bombs, the generals of the Tang Dynasty would not want to take them out and bomb them one by one against those disobedient barbarian countries.

Hearing this, Du Ruhui's face became anxious, "Don't worry, Su Guogong, a total of [-] pieces have been built!"

"what?"

"Du Xiang, why are there only [-] pieces? For such a long time, those brats in the Military Weapons Supervision have been lazy, haven't they? Or, if any brat dares to make trouble, my old Cheng will break his leg right away!"

In an instant, Cheng Chusi, Li Xiaogong and the others stared wide-eyed, full of anger.

"Keming, why are you so slow?" Li Shimin was also puzzled.

"Your Majesty does not know that there is not too much steel in the Tang Dynasty. In order to manufacture the giant ship in the Jinwang Palace and the bombs carried by the Jinwang when he went to sea, the steel in the prison has been accumulated and consumed. clean.

Now, they can only smelt iron and steel, and make bombs at the same time. In two months, [-] bombs have been made, which is already trying their best to compress other ordnance! "

Du Ruhui said with a sad face.

"It's hard for you to send people to mine, and also to make iron and steel!"

Cheng Zhijie stared straight at his eyes and shouted anxiously.

"Severely understaffed!"

Du Ruhui paralyzed his hands and said helplessly.

It's really not that the military supervision is not strong, but that the supply of smelting steel is not enough, and the manpower is also insufficient.

"We need to smelt iron and steel, but we also need to forge cement, sand, stones, and glass. In addition, we need to forge steel ships... With so many people, no matter how many people there are, it is not enough!

Although the old man has tried his best to mobilize those Turkic barbarians in these coolies, it is still not enough! "

Hearing this, Li Shimin, Cheng Zhijie and others sighed helplessly.

half an hour.

Cheng Zhijie's expression hardened.

"Old Du, don't worry, I will force those little bastards this year. Next year, old man Tang will bring all the food from Linyi to my Tang Dynasty. The old man will take my Datang bastards to beat down Goguryeo and put The hozens from Goguryeo were all captured to help you reclaim ore and make steel and iron!"

"Old man..."

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and the others couldn't help laughing and cursing, but they didn't say much.

However, subconscious calculations have already begun in my heart.

If Goguryeo is really defeated, hundreds of thousands of Goguryeo are young and strong, plus the grain of Linyi, maybe not only iron can be smelted in Datang, but steel and iron can be smelted directly in Goguryeo.

"His Majesty!"

At this time, Li Wei walked in from the outside with a happy face.

"What's the matter?" Li Shimin asked.

"Report to Your Majesty, King Jin and His Highness the Crown Prince are back." Li Wei hurriedly reported.

"What, came back so soon?"

Li Shimin was startled, and asked directly, "Where is he now?"

"It's still twenty miles away from Chang'an." Li Wei said.

"Twenty miles?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others subconsciously stood up.

"Go, go out and see!"

"Haha, Your Majesty is wise, just these two days, the idle is almost growing hair..."

Cheng Zhijie, Fang Xuanling and others also said.
