Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Not to mention Li Ke, even Feng An next to him knows how expensive this thing is, but now looking up, there are mountains and plains everywhere.

Sun Simiao raised his legs and walked to the place closest to him. After picking a plant, Sun Simiao broke a short piece and chewed it in his mouth. After tasting it, Sun Simiao spat it out and said with emotion: "It's a waste of everything, it's all the top-quality Dendrobium candidum, and it's been living like this for I don't know how many years."

Standing next to Sun Simiao, Li Ke looked up, at least within the range of sight, almost most of them were this kind of dendrobium.

"This has been the territory of China since ancient times. My Tang Dynasty inherited the orthodoxy of China, so this place is naturally my territory of the Tang Dynasty. From today on, this place will be temporarily named Luzon Mansion, and Feng An will be in charge temporarily." Li Ke stood here opened the mouth.

"What Your Highness said is true." Feng An immediately straightened his face, and bowed directly to salute.

Sun Simiao next to him looked at the two shameless people with a speechless face, but of course he didn't say anything, he just looked at this place before he said: "A medicinal material processing plant can also be built here, just these Dendrobium officinale Made into maple buckets, it is enough to feed a small city."

"In addition, since so many dendrobiums can grow naturally here, it proves that this place is very suitable for the growth of this species. It is a natural medicinal planting base. Enclose a large area around here, and then hire people to pull out the weeds and carry out Take care, don't cut the roots like mining, this will be one of the most important medicinal material bases of Datang in the future."

"No problem, write it down." Li Ke waved his hand, and the two secretaries following behind Li Ke immediately recorded everything here.These two people were sent by Yuelai Trading Company, mainly because there were some things that other people wanted to record, but they didn't understand. Only they knew some knowledge taught by Li Ke.

"Follow our established route to investigate the surrounding environment." Li Ke waved his hand.

"Yes!" Huo Gang made arrangements immediately.

Li Ke and Sun Simiao are here to investigate the growth of these Dendrobium officinale, as well as to look at the surrounding environment. Not far from them, soldiers have already started to explore in the distance in a circle.

The weather in Luzon Island is very hot. It is estimated that the place where Li Ke and the others are currently is more than 30 degrees, so Li Ke and Sun Simiao are wearing thin clothes, so naturally they did not go deep into the island.

The environment here is still primitive, and no one knows how many poisonous insects and snakes there are.

As for the inspecting soldiers, Li Ke wore cowhide armor on their legs, and made them wear iron armor on their upper body for protection.

No one knows if there will be people from primitive tribes in the jungle. If these people come up, they will be given an arrow. People in primitive tribes are used to smearing some poison on the arrowheads.

Many of these soldiers are from the mountain people, and the mountain people and fishermen do not conflict, so many of them are familiar with these tropical mountain forest environments, and they will lead the way to explore the surroundings.

After walking around the island, Li Ke and Sun Simiao returned to the ship. The King of Qin was somewhat cooler on the sea, and there was nothing on the land. It was indeed not safe. Li Ke didn't want to suffer.

Feng An and Huo Gang stayed where they were and began to investigate the surrounding environment.

"There are a lot of medicinal materials here. If I want to find out these medicinal materials accurately, I have to keep them." Sun Simiao looked at Li Ke and said.

"No, the weather is too hot. If you suffer from heatstroke or something, it will be bad. I can't let you stay." Li Ke shook his head quickly and said.

"My body is much healthier than yours." Sun Simiao felt helpless, "I just discovered at least three kinds of Chinese herbal medicines. Without me, you might have wasted a lot of things. Although there are a lot of Dendrobium candidum here, since If you want to build a medicinal material factory, you must deal with other medicinal materials by the way, didn't you say that these are strategic reserves?"

"Where you need to be dispatched, your apprentice will do." Li Ke said quickly.

"Aren't you afraid that they will make mistakes?" Sun Simiao glanced at Li Ke.

"I prepared a book for them, which contains pictures of the appearance of various medicinal materials and their medicinal effects, etc., and let them follow the preparation when the time comes. Pick important medicinal materials to cultivate, anyway, there are many medicinal materials in our Tang Dynasty." Li Ke said.

"Alright." Sun Simiao thought for a while, but he could only agree. He could see that it was definitely impossible for Li Ke to let him stay here by himself.

"To be honest, although there are indeed many Dendrobium officinale and they are very valuable, you are not here just for this, right?" Sun Simiao looked at Li Ke and said.

"Of course, there are gold mines here." Li Ke replied very simply, there is nothing to hide about these things, if you throw a golden mountain in front of Lao Sun, he may not be tempted.

"Oh, no wonder." Sun Simiao suddenly realized, "But gold is not the main reason for you to come here, is it?"

"Compared to Jinshan, there are actually many valuable things here, such as precious mahogany, red sandalwood, etc., and it is also very good at growing rice. The most important thing is that with the development of ocean trade, this place may become an important place in the future. One of the ports. What I want is not the present, but the future, which is not so important to us now." Li Ke said with a smile.

"To put it bluntly, even without this island, Datang is still the most powerful country in the world, bar none. But what I want to consider is that with the development of technology, after hundreds or thousands of years, What can we leave for future generations? If I only consider my own hundred years, my life is more comfortable than everyone in the world.”

Sun Simiao nodded thoughtfully, and then praised: "Not to mention, Your Highness, I admire your far-sighted gaze."

"If you don't look forward, you can't do it. Who knows whether the things we discarded will be regarded as treasures for future generations after the development of the times, so even if this is a desert, maybe there are incomparably precious treasures hidden under it. Wealth! And as you have seen, old man, the ocean has a vast area in this world, which means that the amount of land is constant."

"Our population is large, so the land area occupied will naturally be large! So for my national policy in the future, not giving up an inch of land is a basic national policy." Li Ke said with a smile, "So, we can't just because we think Somewhere, something doesn't work for us, so we just throw it away."

Don't look at it, just talk about you, Daqing!
