"It's a long way from Tang Dynasty to Japan, so it's safer to go with Xuanba!"
Li Shimin explained gently.
Li Xuan thought for a moment and then reminded: "Your Majesty had better send some envoys who are good at water warfare, and bring two thousand soldiers, five thousand hands to throw bombs, five thousand bombs, and ten thousand arrows to throw bombs!"
"Um?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin was stunned.
Immediately, he became furious.
"Then Baekje kid, you still dare to ambush my Tang Dynasty fleet?"
"Go out, just in case!"
Li Xuan chuckled lightly, "Moreover, not only must we prevent Baekje, we must also prevent Silla, and even Japan must prevent it!"
As he said this, he didn't know what he thought of, and Li Xuan's expression tightened again, "If the weapons supervisor produces enough bombs, they'd better double the number of bombs!"
"Um?"
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others were also stunned. So many bombs were enough to defeat the Japanese country.
"Xuanba is preparing to conquer the Japanese country?"
Li Xuan was stunned, was he the kind of warmonger who would attack other countries at every turn?
Waving his hands repeatedly, "Your Majesty misunderstood, I was just in case, just in case!"
After frowning and thinking for a moment, Li Shimin felt that he was overthinking, and said: "So, please rest assured Xuan Ba, I will prepare all the items Xuan Ba needs in the past few days!"
"Um!"
Li Xuan nodded slightly, then suddenly remembered something and looked at Li Shimin again.
"Your Majesty, I heard that an envoy from the Kingdom of Linyi came to Chang'an City?"
Li Shimin replied directly: "Exactly!"
Could it be that Li Xuan took the initiative to care about the government affairs? Li Shimin, who was in a good mood, also explained.
"These envoys from the Kingdom of Linyi are really a bunch of barbarian hozens. They are all black and have an unpleasant smell. And according to what Tang Jian said, these hozens haven't bathed yet!"
"Why does Xuanba want these hozens? These hozens have been wandering around Chang'an City for the past few days and have not returned!"
"I just heard that the food in these small Linyi countries is harvested three times a year, and the rain is very abundant. The Linyi hozens never lack food. These hozens only need to cultivate a few acres of fields around their houses, and then sow seeds at will.
Rice seeds can grow full rice in a few months.”
Li Xuan said slowly.
"What?"
"These Linyi hozens actually occupy such a precious land?"
"What a fool! These hozens can only grow one crop of grain a year in Guanzhong, the Tang Dynasty. But these hozens can actually grow three crops!"
"That's just a request. Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will capture the Linyi Hozen in a moment and torture it carefully. If this is the case, I will lead troops tomorrow to occupy the small country of Linyi and let those Hozens
, cultivate food for me in the Tang Dynasty for life after life!"
Immediately, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Hou Junji, Li Jing and others stared at the boss, their faces turned red, and they were extremely excited.
Although Datang had a good harvest this year, Datang was still short of food.
"Xuanba, is this true?"
After a while, several people calmed down, and Li Shimin asked Li Xuan eagerly.
"If there really is such a treasure land, our Tang Dynasty will really never be short of food again!"
As for the feelings of the people in Linyi, none of these old killers took it into consideration.
Now that there are opportunities around the Tang Dynasty, the small countries that bow to the Tang Dynasty are all small countries that the Tang Dynasty thinks are too far away and have no interest in them.
Otherwise, as long as there are some things that the Tang Dynasty needs, such as food.
The veteran killers of the Tang Dynasty could lead a group of screaming soldiers to cover up and kill them directly.
"This matter is most likely true!"
Li Xuan chuckled lightly and continued: "However, your Majesty, you can rest assured. These Linyi hozens are very lazy because they have enough food. It is normal not to take a bath. Even they only plant one crop a year."
After harvesting food, I spent the rest of the time in the house, sleeping in.
Your Majesty can send someone to inquire, and there is no need to torture him. He only needs to give a little property, and the Linyi Hozen will surely tell him everything.
Alternatively, Your Majesty can send a minister to set off from Dengzhou and take a boat to Linyi. If this happens, he can also purchase some grain from Linyi and return to Chang'an!"
"So good!"
Hearing this, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others nodded repeatedly.
Immediately, he couldn't wait to say goodbye to Li Xuan and went to the palace.
At the same time, Li Wei sent a group of guards to search for Lin Yi's envoys all over the city and sent them to the Liangyi Palace.
Envoy Lin Yi was a middle-aged man who was completely black. It was unknown whether it was because he was tanned or because he didn't take a shower.
However, at this moment, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others did not show any disdain. Instead, they stared at the Lin Yi envoy as if they were looking at some rare treasure.
"Upadong meets the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty!"
According to the teachings of Honglu Temple, Upatong performed the etiquette to Li Shimin in an extremely awkward posture, and then asked with expectation.
"I wonder if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has summoned his envoy, but what's the matter?"
"Upatong, I heard that rice in Erlin can be planted three times a year?"
Li Shimin asked directly.
"three times a year?"
Hearing this, Upatong couldn't help but frown slightly and said, "To the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I have never tried this. I, Lin Yi, don't have any solar terms for growing grain. Every year, I only need to put the grain after it rains."
Plant it and wait for it to mature and harvest!
Then, plant it again, and when there is enough food, plant it no more!"
After saying that, Upatong's expression tightened, and he could faintly feel that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the ministers of the Tang Dynasty were inexplicably breathing thicker, as if they had discovered some rare treasure.
"You hozen really didn't lie to me?"
Hou Junji stared at Upatong with his red eyes, and he would kill him if Upatong dared to talk nonsense.
Upatong was obviously shocked by this, and did not understand how he had offended the Tang general. He quickly saluted Li Shimin and begged for mercy.
"I would also like to ask the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to forgive my sins. I am telling the truth. The people of Linyi grow food based on their mood. As long as the food at home is enough to eat, they will no longer grow food, but hide in the house and sleep in the cool..."
Not yet. After finishing speaking, Upatong could not help but tremble.
He felt inexplicably that even the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty looked at him with a look that was suddenly similar to that of the ministers beside him.
It seemed like he was going to eat him.
These lazy barbarian hozens actually occupy such a precious land!
"Youpotong, if I send envoys to buy grain from your Linyi, how much can your Linyi sell to the Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin continued to ask.
"Buying food?"
There was a strange look on Upatung's face. In his mind, no one had ever bought food from others.
However, Upatong was not stupid, but said: "I, Lin Yi, can sell as much grain as the noble Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wants. But, I don't know what the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty wants to use to buy it?"
"What do you, Lin Yi, want me to use to buy food?"
Li Shimin asked directly.
"The noble Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, my envoy wants the white salt and glass of the Tang Dynasty, tea, and even some fairy wine like liquor!" Upatong said cautiously.
"oh?"
Li Shimin pondered for a moment and asked again: "How many kilograms of grain can one pound of white salt buy?"
Upatong was overjoyed and said quickly: "Honorable Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, one pound of white salt can buy fifty pounds of grain!"
