Liu Tan was a little strange after hearing this, and always felt that Lu Xuan seemed to have some backhand, but he was too embarrassed to ask more, because no one would really tell the whole story about his own plan.

He also hides the address of the new city.

Lu Xuan continued: "So I just want to talk to Ah, if you want to make a move, send someone to notify me, when the time comes, we will mobilize together, at least to ensure that Che Shiguo will not go back to make trouble for you."

Liu Tan nodded: "Alright."

Lu Xuan has already talked to this point, and he refuses again, as if he is on guard against others.

However, Liu Tan still let Huo Guang and the others discuss the details.

He is just an ordinary person engaged in infrastructure construction, so he doesn't know how to fight.

Huo Guang...at least in theory, and the other two are also from his family. As for Jiang Chong...well, Jiang Chong can only keep a blank expression by his side.

After the negotiation was almost done, Liu Tan politely sent Lu Xuan away, then turned around and asked Huo Guang, "Is there any problem?"

Huo Guang looked a little tired: "This little Kunmi is really not a fuel-efficient lamp. Maybe we should be glad that there was no little Wusun among the robbers who looted before, otherwise we might not be able to get out of this Gobi."

Liu Tan's eyes widened: "Is he so powerful?"

Huo Guang shook his head: "How many people in the world can destroy a country with lightning?"

Li Buyan who was at the side suddenly asked: "How is it compared to Marquis Jing Huan?"

Liu Tan stared instantly after hearing this: "Stop talking nonsense!"

Even though he knew that Lu Xuan was very powerful, Liu Tan just subconsciously felt that Huo Qubing was even more powerful.

Think about Huo Qubing's achievements at this age. If you compare the scale of the war, Lu Xuan is definitely not comparable, but the resources of the two sides in the war cannot be compared. It seems inappropriate to say that Lu Xuan is not good.

Li Buji shrank his neck. He was really curious. In this day and age, although everyone thinks that Jing Huanhou is a talent, and regrets his early death, not many people have a deep understanding of his achievements, so they don't know. What admiration for him.

This is true even if Li Buyan was born as a general. They regard Huo Qubing as a goal, a goal that can be surpassed, not a unique young genius in the world.

Compared with Liu Tan, Huo Guang's reaction was very calm. He said directly: "This is incomparable. After all, the national conditions are different. However, it is said that Xiao Kunmi was brought up by his mother since he was a child, and all Chinese characters and Chinese were taught by his mother. So from the perspective of the Western Regions, it should be a rare young hero."

Huo Guang glanced at Liu Tan while talking. He intended to remind Liu Tan that Lu Xuan and him might only be a pity after all, but unexpectedly, Liu Tan nodded in agreement, and then said: "Okay, since everyone It has been discussed, let's go back first, I heard that the people sent by the father have arrived, let's go to see the gold mine first."

Hearing what he said, everyone immediately cheered up.

To be honest, except for Li Buyan and Wei Buyi, none of the people present may be interested in fighting, and everyone is more interested in gold mines.

When Liu Tan and others returned to the new city, they found that houses had already started to be built in the new city, and the first to be built was Liu Tan's house.

In Liu Tan's design, his house is not very big. After all, it is only a temporary residence, and he doesn't want to make it so luxurious. If there is such a place, it is better to build more ordinary houses so that more people can live in it.

But he had just left for a few days, and when he came back, he found that those people had enlarged his house abruptly.

If his house was just a single-family villa without a yard before, it has now become a Chinese-style garden. Although it may not be as big as his Suiyu Palace, the size has already surprised him.

Liu Tan frowned and said, "Who did this? Did I ask you to change it?"

The people below were stunned, and they didn't dare to speak for a while. No matter how gentle Liu Tan was usually, his identity was still there.

What's more, Liu Tan himself didn't know it. After experiencing the baptism of Lu Xuan's killing in front of him two days ago, Liu Tan's whole temperament also changed a little. In a word.

Jiang Chong said in a low voice: "Your Highness, this is the meaning of the captain."

Liu Tan's expression eased a lot and he asked, "What did the captain say?"

Jiang Chong's heart was almost sour, just now he watched the fifth prince clean up your posture when he couldn't understand, but when he heard Huo Guang's order, his aura softened immediately, and he didn't even say the reason!

No matter how sad Jiang Chong was in his heart, he had to explain honestly: "The captain said that even if His Highness doesn't live here in the future, there must be someone stationed here. It can't be too small."

Liu Tan was a little surprised: "What do you mean? This is only a temporary opening, is the captain going to use it for a long time?"

Jiang Chong nodded: "The captain means that since the little Wusun is involved in Che Shiguo, it shouldn't be difficult to take down Jieguo, and when Jieguo is defeated, Cheshiguo may not dare to make trouble, so expanding this city is also a big deal. Nothing is impossible."

Liu Tan frowned: "But this place is located in a remote place, and the reason for death in a remote place is better than I understand."

Jiang Chong looked around, leaned into Liu Tan's ear and said, "Your Highness doesn't know yet, the gold mine has already found preliminary results, and people there have to drill at least 150 holes."

Liu Tan's eyes widened immediately: "So big?"

Jiang Chong actually didn't quite understand it, but when he saw everyone talking about it, he half-understood it and wrote it down. Seeing Liu Tan doing the same at this time, he couldn't help being a little surprised: "His Royal Highness knows?"

Liu Tan nodded: "If it has this scale, then this city...is still small."

Liu Tan actually doesn't know much about gold mines, but he does know about history books. He vaguely remembers that it was once recorded that a mine with three hundred holes was considered a big mine. For example, a big mine in Shandong has been around since the Tang Dynasty. Mined in the Ming Dynasty, no matter how low the ancient productivity is, the mineral content that can last for four dynasties is already terrifying enough.

Liu Tan felt a little unbelievable. He didn't remember that there was such a large gold mine in the Western Regions. It was not recorded in history. When it was recorded, it was dug or it was never discovered?

Of course, if it was discovered by later generations, it is normal for Liu Tan not to know about it. He only reads about the gold mine from ancient books, and he doesn't pay attention to how modern minerals are distributed or what they are like.

Liu Tan looked at the sand table and said, "We can't delay."

Before Jiang Chong could ask, Liu Tan turned to Miao Rui and said, "Has the money I asked you to bring here?"

Miao Rui immediately said: "It's already part of it, the rest... there are too many, and we have to beware of thieves, so we have to slow down."

Liu Tan asked, "How much did you bring?"

Miao Rui said, "40 yuan."

40... It's not too little. Roughly speaking, it can be worth one-tenth of a big man's annual tax.

Liu Tan turned to Jiang Chong and said, "You find a few reliable people from the Western Regions to buy cattle and sheep from neighboring countries. The price doesn't matter, as long as it's less than twice the normal price. As for how to trade it, you can decide."

Jiang Cheng was stunned: "Your Highness, we have military rations."

Liu Tan said with some distaste: "That's what kind of military rations. Now it's just doing engineering work on weekdays. Next, there will be a war, and people will fight with their lives. Why don't you give them some delicious food?"

What's more, Liu Tan also has his own ideas. He once remembered that someone used this method to make the people on the grassland think that raising cattle and sheep was very profitable, so they all went to raise cattle and sheep, and no one farmed land or did other things. Over time, when the Central Plains suddenly stops buying cattle and sheep on a large scale, the economic form of the grassland countries will collapse very quickly. At that time, the Central Plains will not need to do anything, and their own country will start a war.

Liu Tan didn't intend to count on a war to achieve this goal, but just wanted to plant a seed first.

Jiang Chong didn't quite understand Liu Tan's thoughts, or most people in this era couldn't understand his thoughts.

Although Confucianism today was vigorously advocated by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it did not really cover everyone. The idea of ​​benevolence is not available to everyone.

But since Liu Tan ordered so, Jiang Chong listened. Anyway, he found that listening to Liu Tan was much better than not listening.

As for Mrs. Gouyi's mother and son's piece of jade...he had already written to the trustee to return it.

A fool who doesn't know if he can have it can tell whether it is more important than the military skills that are basically available now.

His Majesty the Emperor is in the prime of life, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not lost his morals. In addition, the fifth prince was born out of nowhere, and the hope of the sixth prince being able to compete for the throne is already very slim. A person like Jiang Chong who is good at speculation is also the best at analyzing, how could he not see it? ?

When Jiang Chong was about to leave, Liu Tan added: "Little Wusun's cattle and sheep will not be purchased, or purchased at a par price."

Jiang Chong was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked, "What about the Great Wusun?"

Liu Tan said, "Big Wusun will follow what I just said."

Jiang Chong was a little confused. According to him, such a good thing Liu Tan should not leave Xiao Wusun behind. After all, the relationship is good. Could it be that the friendship between His Highness and Xiao Kunmi is only on the surface, but they are actually guarding against each other?

However, what Liu Tan thought was that a good friend should not be cheated, but it is not easy for him to explain all these plans to Lu Xuan, thinking about it is also very bald.

As for Princess Danyang, it’s very easy to explain. Before, he told Princess Danyang to raise cattle and sheep before reclaiming wasteland. Judging from the letter that Princess Danyang wrote to him last time, he should have started buying cattle and sheep. Mi didn't think it was wrong for her to do so.

Now that the Central Plains suddenly started to buy cattle and sheep on a large scale, it can prove Princess Danyang's vision. If it is not possible, she can also add a well-informed princess to her position in Wusun.

As for the money, part of the money for buying cattle and sheep from Wusun went to Princess Danyang, wouldn't that be more comfortable?

Just when Liu Tan felt that his plans were starting to unfold, Princess Danyang sent a letter: Brother, help!Liejiaomi is not allowed to reclaim wasteland now, and has to do his best to raise more cattle and sheep!

Liu Tan:? ? ? ? ? ?Faint king!
