Auctioning a country, not to mention that everyone present didn't react for a while, even Tang Jin, who prides himself on being well-informed, didn't react. It is true that in the world in which he lived in his previous life, as long as you have money and weapons, it is not a big problem to build a country in some backward areas.

But the point is, I've never heard of a country that would auction itself off. Is this a joke about all the people of the whole country?

"I believe that everyone will definitely have some doubts about this lot, and then this prince will explain it to you." Maybe it was planned a long time ago, and when everyone was talking, Tang Gou walked up. His appearance instantly silenced the people who were still talking.

I saw that he pulled the timid princess of Liuli Kingdom forward and said: "Five years ago, Liuli Kingdom was on the verge of extinction because of financial inadequacy. I received a million taels of silver from my Datang to suspend the situation, and when I borrowed money, Liuliguo claimed to pay off all the money within five years, and if I didn't pay off the debts of a country within the time limit, the land of a country was fully displayed with my Datang. As the time comes, my Datang will receive the land of Liuli Country according to the agreement, but because my Datang territory is vast and Liuli Country is on the far sea, it is difficult to govern. It is specially handed over to my royal family to be sold in the form of auction, and the buyer can be crowned viscount and obtain the glazed country as his fief. ”

Tang Gou's explanation, and everyone below suddenly showed a clear look. This is said on the surface, but it is not difficult to hear through the meaning of his words, Datang is there because it is too far away, and everyone doesn't want to care about him, but it is really because Liuli Country is poor.

A country that was poor five years ago and had to borrow money, now the royal family can eat is a problem, right? This is better if it is a barbarian tribe, after all, the barbarians are strong and strong, even if the poor can't eat, but as long as they put in a little food, they can do the work of a dozen people alone. But what about this glazed country? There is no gap between the people and the people of the Tang Dynasty in terms of physical fitness, and there are no cherished resources in the country.

Just because it was a loss-making deal, Datang didn't want it, so he released it to see if there was anyone who had the money and had nowhere to spend it and was willing to buy it back and play with it, and he carried a false title of viscount with it. The name sounds quite loud, but it's real

In the world, the viscount of the Tang Dynasty is the most meaningless title, and if the whole country is counted, there must be 8,000 if there is not 10,000, which is not worth anything at all, and it may not be as deterrent as a county guard.

A false title plus a piece of land that is 100% smashed in his hand, exchanged for 10,000 taels of silver, and a regular tribute every year in the future, the court is definitely a profitable business.

Everyone below understood, and Tang Jin naturally understood it even more. But it's clear and clear, but he is bound to get his hands on this glass country, maybe in the eyes of others, this is a money-losing goods, but in Tang Jin's opinion, this thing is the cornerstone of future development.

Just bought the so-called woman of the Returning Ruins Country, Tang Jin will definitely build a dock and go to sea in the future. But Datang itself only faces the sea, and because of the small demand for shipping, the development of ships is very backward, and there are not even a few docks, and there is not a single dock that can build large ocean-going ships.

This is extremely unfavorable to his ocean-going plan, people start to build ocean-going ships, and he has to start building from shipyards, which is basically a zero-based start. And he could imagine that in his capacity, he would suddenly have to build a large ship on the sea, and what would be the reaction of the imperial court, not to mention, what about those maritime neighbors? The first thing I thought about was whether Datang was going to kill them, right? When the time comes, if one of them is not good, it will be an international dispute.

But if he can buy this glazed country, a country that is so poor that he bought himself, for the surrounding countries, it doesn't matter how big the move is, is it possible to threaten himself? In this kind of heart, Tang Jin can build his own ocean-going ships unscrupulously, and as for Liuli Country, there is also no corresponding dock and wharf...... Anyway, they all started from scratch, is there any gap there?

"Uh...... You won't ...... Want to sell this glass country, right? Looking at Tang Jin's increasingly eager gaze, Tang Xu didn't know what to say for a while.

"Of course, this thing will be of great use to my future plans." Tang Jin said as a matter of course.

"Hey! Don't be delusional! Anyone in the world can buy it, but you can't do it, even if you take it today, the emperor won't give it to you. Tang Xu slapped Tang Jin on the shoulder, "You analyze your current situation yourself." Yes, you are the first powerful minister of the Tang Dynasty, the prince of Dongxian Wang,

There are some hot existences in the succession, but again, these identities give you not only glory and power, but also countless suspicions. No matter how much the emperor believes in you, he will definitely be wary of you in his heart to prevent you from plotting to usurp the throne. If you were honest, he might not do anything yet, but if you bought the Glass Country...... He should be suspicious......"

Tang Xu's words suddenly sobered Tang Jin up, he only thought about what he was going to do in the future, but forgot his current position. Just like Tang Xu said, once he buys the Liuli Kingdom, what will the emperor think?

Ready for the back road? It's lightweight. But if the emperor is suspicious, he will definitely think of things like an intention to rebel or an intention to commit treason. It's like the head of the propaganda department of a company suddenly becomes the chairman of the company next door, and the original company has ghosts if you don't suspect you. No matter how much you say that you are just going to see it, it is impossible for people to believe it if you are just curious.

"This ...... That's right, then let's do it......" Tang Jin's eyes didn't have the slightest intention of moving away from the girl, and there was no thoughtful glint in his eyes.

Tang Xu couldn't help but sigh when he saw this, he really knew Tang Jin too well. Once this guy encounters something related to the so-called "technology" and "future", he will never stop trying to achieve his goal.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm too lazy to persuade you." Tang Xu waved his hand helplessly, "I just hope that when you are going to be beheaded that day, you can tell me in advance, I will run away." ”

"Funding the barbarians, and helping them establish a force beyond the Tang Dynasty, your crime is no less than mine." Tang Jin casually responded to Tang Xu's ridicule.

"That's the blueprint you gave." Tang Xu retorted.

"But you sent it and oversaw it." Tang Jin said casually.

"I was forced!" Tang Xu said.

"Oh? Datang Law did not say that forced treason is not treason. Tang Jin sneered and patted the other party's shoulder, "Dude, from the moment you got on the thief ship, your head was already on the guillotine." ”
