Li Shimin

Li Xuan was startled, then shook his head again and again.

"It's hard to come here, how can you leave so easily!"

"Master, then shall I continue fishing for gold in the river?"

Cheng Chusi said expectantly.

"Do you think it's enough for me to find these things?"

Li Xuan asked.

"Master, each of these things I'm looking for is enough to plant more than ten acres of land!" Cheng Chusi was a little puzzled.

"Hmph, it's only ten acres of land!"

Li Xuan sneered, "How can you guarantee that these things will be planted if they are buried in the soil?

Since we have come here and there are so many of them, we should look for a few more.Even if it can be planted, we can also use it as food and eat it on the road! "

"Eat on the road?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Chusi's eyes lit up immediately, looking at the sacks carried by the soldiers, his face was filled with longing.

"Baoding, after you go back, put these things in the box, so that they cannot get wet or be bumped."

Li Xuan ignored Cheng Chusi and said directly to Li Baoding who was beside him.

"Yes, Master!"

Li Baoding quickly responded.

One night, nothing happened.

However, after learning that the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn that came to search for this time had all been found, all the soldiers and crew breathed a sigh of relief.

morning.

Li Xuan took a few veterans on board and took out eight large boxes, each of which was filled with soil.

Then, peppers, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes were all planted according to the method in memory.

However, sweet potatoes seem to need to cultivate sweet potato seedlings first, and then plant those sweet potato seedlings into the soil.

After everything was arranged, several people started to set off again.

With the experience of yesterday's investigation, Li Xuan walked on the road of discovery.

Therefore, there is no hiding again.

After walking for two days, I met a few passers-by and a small village, but seeing Li Xuan's army, those passers-by and the people in the village were all terrified, and then hid far away. of.

Regarding this, Li Xuan didn't bother to pay attention to those natives.

"Master, I have been waiting for such an excellent army to appear here for two days. Since no local officers and soldiers have come to interrogate, the local government is so lax!"

Cheng Chusi looked puzzled.

At the same time, Xue Rengui and other soldiers had already started to be on guard.

And sent five teams of scouts.

Unfortunately, it seems that there is really no army to attack them.

……

Chapter 596 Small Town

"Maybe it's because the local government doesn't have a big army!"

Li Xuan said thoughtfully.

"No big army?"

Cheng Chusi, Li Chengqian and others were startled.

"The land is vast and the population is sparse. Naturally, there is not a big city. A city has only 2 people. With such a small number of people, how big an army can there be?"

Li Xuan laughed lightly.

"That's right, I've been walking for two days, and I only found two small villages. The population here is really small!"

Li Chongyi also thought of something, feeling a little emotional.

"See Your Majesty!"

At this time, a team of scouts ran from the front.

"My lord, I found a small city twenty miles ahead!"

"Small town?"

Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.

"how many people?"

Li Xuan asked.

"Back to the king, according to the villain's estimate, there are only 1 people at most!" The scout reported.

"Everyone rests in place for a quarter of an hour, and then enters the city!"

Li Xuandao.

"Yes!"

Everyone rested in place, and at the same time looked forward to it.

An hour later.

Li Xuan and the others entered the small city unimpeded.

It is said to be a small town, but in the eyes of Li Xuan and others, it is as big as a large village.

A circle of city walls made of piled stones, densely packed inside, are all small houses made of wood.

The streets are also very messy.

As Li Xuan and other people came in, the atmosphere in the whole small city suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at Li Xuan and others with a full face of wariness.

At the same time, some people were quietly running out.

What surprised Cheng Chusi and the others the most was that after they had come in for so long, no army came to stop them.

Instead, in the dark, someone was holding a round shield, a long knife, and a spear.

Unfortunately, they are all hiding far away.

In this regard, Li Xuan and others directly ignored it.

"Your Majesty, there is a corn shop here!"

"My lord, I'll find a sweet potato and potato shop..."

Soon, a group of personal guards had already found out all the shops in the small city.

"go!"

With a group of soldiers, Li Xuan first came to a shop selling sweet potatoes and potatoes.

There are not as many sweet potatoes and potatoes in this shop as Li Xuan expected, each up to five hundred catties.

And the shopkeeper with a yellow beard in this shop, after Li Xuan and others came in, was already standing vigilantly by the window of the house.

Now, there are signs of getting ready to jump out the window and escape.

However, the soldiers outside the house were covered in iron armor, and the bearded shopkeeper didn't dare to move.

"Bring out two bottles of refined salt!"

Li Xuan smiled slightly, and took two bottles of refined salt from the guard behind him.

Then, put it in front of the shopkeeper.

And the shopkeeper, when he saw the two bright small glass bottles, his eyes widened.

Seeing this, a trace of satisfaction flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Sure enough, these people have a special liking for transparent glass bottles.

Unfortunately, what Li Xuan wants to sell is not the glass bottle, but the refined salt inside.

Greeted the shopkeeper over, slowly unscrewed the glass bottle in front of the shopkeeper, tasted it first, and then signaled the bearded shopkeeper to let him taste it too.

Immediately, the bearded shopkeeper's eyes widened even more, his face full of surprise.

He had never seen this kind of refined salt in the main city.

Immediately, he looked at Li Xuan expectantly.

Li Xuan pointed to the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the shop, and then pointed to two bottles of refined salt.

The meaning is self-evident.

But what Li Xuan didn't expect was that the bearded man shook his head all over his face.

At the same time, he stretched out four fingers and wanted to ask Li Xuan how many bottles of refined salt.

"Humph!"

Seeing this, Li Xuan directly reached out, took two bottles of refined salt, and was about to go out.

Although sweet potatoes and potatoes are very precious in the Tang Dynasty, here, Li Xuan believes that these items are as common and common as the rice in the Tang Dynasty.

In Datang, just those two small glass bottles can be exchanged for several times the amount of sweet potatoes and potatoes here.

Now, he felt that it was a bit of a loss to exchange two bottles for these, but this bearded barbarian wanted more!

However, before Li Xuan took two steps, the bearded shopkeeper quickly ran up to Li Xuan, with a flattering face and hastily gestured.

See what it means, I agree!

On the side, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others all looked disdainful when they saw this.

Li Xuan snorted coldly, then handed the two bottles of refined salt in his hand to the bearded shopkeeper.

Then, he ordered a group of soldiers to come in and pack sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Immediately, go to the next shop.

Behind him, the bearded shopkeeper also directly closed the shop door, and quietly followed behind Li Xuan.

Corn shop.

Li Xuan spent a small bottle of refined salt and more than 1000 catties of corn.

Then, I spent another small bottle of refined salt and bought five hundred catties of dry-stir-fried red peppers.

Finally, Li Xuan found a surprise.

pumpkin!

Li Xuan spent another bottle of refined salt to buy out the pumpkins in that shop.

Finally, after wandering around the city and finding nothing good, he led everyone out of the city and prepared to return to the ship the same way.

"My lord, I'm afraid there will be no peace tonight!"

After setting up camp, Xue Rengui came to Li Xuan's side with a serious expression on his face.

"That's why I chose to camp here!"

Li Xuan chuckled, "There are only two roads here, and this is the best time for them to attack!"

"My lord, are you deliberately luring them here?"

Xue Rengui looked surprised.

"Why, are you scared?" Li Xuan asked.

"Please rest assured, even if everyone in that small city comes to attack, the last general will not be afraid at all!"

Xue Rengui said hastily.

"Everyone should take a good rest and occupy a favorable terrain. These barbarians are different from my Tang Dynasty, and no one knows when they will attack.

Therefore, at least half of the people need to keep vigil tonight, and set up traps, and set up more! "
