Chapter 742: Involved

At this time, choosing to attack the city has a great chance of winning, but after winning, you will have to face the revenge of the entire Li family.

Pay for one's whistle.

If it is cooperation, the grain is sold to them, and the two sides can establish friendly relations.

Xu Maogong has investigated Li Shimin, both civil and military, and he is also very righteous, and he is even more wise and foolish, and he is not the eldest son, so he can cultivate the ability to forbear.

Just showing some abilities has made the Li family develop so fast, and it is a good place to be.

You can't blame him for being far-sighted, to be honest, people like him who rely on mental work need to meet the master to follow in order to have a future.

He has long seen virtue thoroughly, and has already selected a few people who know to follow, if you want to say that the brothers of Wagangzhai are not stupid, when people will think about themselves first.

Shan Xiongxin came to Wagang to seek refuge in Wagang in order to seek a great cause, to judge the situation, and to find a way back for him.

Li Mi can think of befriending Li Shimin, I'm afraid that he will fight with him, and Shan Xiongxin can completely persuade him.

"Now that the owner of the village has decided, I think it is feasible, and now that the Li family is powerful, they can make friends now, and they may be able to use it in the future." Xu Maogong said.

Li Mi is very concerned about Xu Maogong's words, after all, there are not many people with brains in Wagangzhai, and Xu Maogong is one.

Friending the second son of the Li family is asking for something now, and helping to solve the stability in advance can also reduce the Li family's dependence on Youzhou, and secondly, it can keep them from being remembered by the Li family.

Now that the Li family is rising, they must rely on conquest to continue to develop, and they don't want to face the Li family at this time.

I thought that Wagang's current strength was not sure to confront it.

Li Mi knew in his heart that the Li family seemed to be strong, but in fact, the hidden danger was that the sons and daughters of the Li family were so good, and they would be like a bamboo when they fought the country, but he could take advantage of it when he guarded the country.

As a royal agent, Tang Guogong knows the details of his family very well.

At this juncture, Wagangzhai chose to occupy Li Shimin's side.

After discussion, the generals of Wagangzhai decided to do what Li Mi wanted, anyway, they were qualified thugs, and they didn't use their brains at all.

It is late at night in Penglai City, Li Shimin is still working, there are many affairs in the city, and the Youzhou model is not easy to imitate.

Many workshops have already contacted businessmen to work together, and it is very effective to have the Li family soldiers and horses to escort them.

There is no industrial base, and the level of craftsmen recruited is very general, and he has to have a headache.

Who doesn't know that all the craftsmen and craftsmen who have some ability have been recruited by the people of Youzhou, and the level of the remaining craftsmen is not high.

Li Shimin also wants the blacksmith to build weapons.

What bothered him even more was that there was not much food left in Penglai City, and if he wanted to survive the autumn harvest, he had to buy food, otherwise the newly recruited soldiers and horses would not be able to raise it.

Youzhou's news has not been responded to for a long time, and he is a little upset.

The next day, Li Shimin got up early with dark circles under his eyes and continued to work, and just when he was yawning, he heard that people from Wagangzhai wanted to see him.

Penglai City is now under his jurisdiction, and everything is handled by him alone, why is he tired because the eldest grandson Wuji is helping to recruit troops and horses, and he has no time to share his work.

"Ask someone to come in."

Xu Maogong came to deliver food, and when he saw Li Shimin, he immediately reported his name.

"Wagangzhai Counselor Xu Maogong has seen the second son."

Now a city, a rule, a name, he doesn't know, can only be called ambiguously.

"Xu Maogong, I have heard of you, the think tank of Erxian Village, it can be said that without you, there would be no power of the single family, I don't know what you are here for?"

Xu Maogong thought about his statement, knowing that Li Shimin was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and he didn't dare to despise this person.

"I heard that the second son needs food, and Wagangzhai came to trade with grain, please forgive me for coming uninvited." Xu Mao is fair.

"So that's the case, after several battles in Penglai City, the people were implicated in the war, and if there was no food to last until the autumn harvest, they might become homeless."

What Li Shimin said is not a secret, since the other party knows that he is short of grain, he must know the purpose of storing grain, and there is no need to beat around the bush.

Then the two sides completed the transaction, and Xu Maogong sent the grain over, and purchased it at the market price to meet the needs of the expansion of soldiers and horses.

Xu Maogong did not leave immediately, and stayed in Penglai City as a guest at the invitation of Li Shimin, which shows that the relationship between the two sides is one step closer.

Li De was thinking about whether to sell grain, and when he heard that Li Shimin had reached a cooperation with Wagangzhai, he was relieved when he thought about it.

The stored grain is time-limited, Wagangzhai attacked the world's first granary, not only developed the team, but also opened the warehouse to distribute grain to the people, which is a good deed in the eyes of the poor people.

From the government's point of view, they are robbers.

The development of a country cannot be developed by handouts, and eventually it will set back development, and without food reserves, it will face more difficulties in the future.

Li De didn't think that Wagangzhai would still have a way to solve the food problem when the grain expired, and they didn't farm, so if they relied on robbery, they would be no different from the Turkic horse bandits.

The sudden rise of the Li family has affected the relationship between various forces, and if Wagangzhai and Li Shimin form an alliance, will other forces also choose to unite together.

Thinking about it negates this speculation, the rebels' purpose is to oppose the rule of Emperor Yang of Sui, and they all have an ambition to become emperors.

It is possible to unite, but unity cannot be spoken.

Will it have an impact on Youzhou?

Li De kept thinking that Youzhou is developing rapidly, but it still can't be said to occupy a place in the world.

He is very aware of the power of the noble gate lords hidden behind the Sui State, and has the strength to change the dynasty.

In the eyes of those people, the imperial power is used to protect their interests, and there may be their spokesmen in the court and the military.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty may have had the fear of being dominated, so he returned to eternity and accumulated several generations of royal power to contend with it.

Especially during the period of Emperor Wen of Sui, he was suspicious by nature and easy to kill ministers, so that the courtiers could not jump out of the problem, in Li De's mind, maybe this was to consolidate the throne, the power of the weak gate lords and nobles in disguise.

When it came to Emperor Yang of Sui, the way he acted was too extreme, or too young, and he ended up making a mess.

The conquest of Goryeo was fruitless and suffered heavy losses, and many forces within the Sui State rebelled, and their direct interests affected the national treasury and tax revenue.

The strength of the royal family was weakened, but there was nothing to do with the rebels.

The ten lieutenants under him were all selected from the children of the generals, and he didn't believe that with the background of the old country, he couldn't find ministers who could fight and recruit soldiers.

"Maybe it's time to dominate the world." Li De muttered softly.

Li Yuan was able to become the emperor in a few years, which shows that there is not much time to communicate with the rebels, and he Youzhou is not a big trick, and he will inevitably be involved.
