Chapter 252: Goguryeo Envoys
The end of the Hundred Flowers Competition, Shi Wannian's happy departure, so that the lively Chang'an City instantly returned to the original bland, but with the arrival of the New Year, the weather became colder and colder, so that the merchants on the streets of Chang'an have decreased by a few points, for Chang'an City, which is extremely serious, Jia Yi has not had much nostalgia, serious Chang'an City, will always make Jia Yi feel like living in a cage, and there are eyes full of surveillance smell everywhere, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Anyway, the location of the wedding will be 100% chosen in Jia's Manor, simply, Jia Yi returned to the manor after being busy with the affairs of Chang'an City, and spent half a day playing with his son, making and making ship models, and the days were leisurely, but she was about to get married, but she was no one, without him, hiding in her room and embroidering the wedding dress.
When Shi Wannian returned to Yiwu with two things that he thought were priceless, I don't know whether he intended or not, he actually presented the silver plate he exchanged from Jia Yi in front of the envoys of other countries, which made their eyes brighten and at the same time they began to think about getting something similar to the silver plate from Jia Yi, as for the kind of glazed horse given by the emperor, no one had any thoughts, after all, this kind of glazed ware can appear in one is already a rare treasure, No one would think that Li Er's home had other treasures.
Therefore, when Jia Yi was enjoying a rare leisure time on the manor, someone did come to see him very unsightly, and Jia Yi expressed great wonder about this, it stands to reason that he is a viscount of the Tang Dynasty, and the title is not high enough to make those envoys look at it, and after thinking about it for a long time, I can't figure out what they are looking for themselves.
It is not polite to refuse people to come out of the door, especially when people come to the door, so after a short period of hesitation, Jia Yi put the person in his home and asked for the identity of the person who came, but Jia Yi's eyes widened in surprise, because they were the envoys of Goguryeo.
As we all know, the stick always plagiarized various items from the Central Plains in later generations, and even threatened that Li Bai was from their country, so Jia Yi did not have a very good impression of the ancestor of Goguryeo, the stick more than a thousand years ago, and he firmly believed that the cheeky braggadocio would definitely be inherited.
"I don't know what you're looking for me?" Jia Yi immediately picked up his Fan of the Tang Viscount, sat on the high hall chair with a golden sword, and looked proudly at the Goguryeo Tang envoy sitting on the chair on the side.
"I heard that there are still some high-quality glass orbs in the hands of the lord, I wonder if the lord can cut his love?"
Looking at the humble smile on the face of the Goguryeo Tang envoy, Jia Yi sneered in his heart, and did not rush to answer their inquiry, but recalled in his heart about Goguryeo's time in Zhenguan.
It is said that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will win all battles, as a former angry youth, when the angry youth in the Central Plains had an online war of words with the angry youth of the stick, Jia Yi also knew some of the history of the stick at that time, and the person Yuan Gai Suwen also left a very deep impression on him at that time, because in the history of the stick, this person has this double evaluation, some people say that he is the hero of Goguryeo, because when Li Erqin attacked Goguryeo, it was this person who led the troops to successfully block the pace of the ** team, Some people also say that he was a bastard, that he was a brutal murderer, and in the end, it was because of his iron-blooded rule that it led to the demise of Tang Gaozong, that is, Goguryeo during the reign of Li Zhi.
Twelve years ago, Yuangai Suwen successfully killed the king of Goguryeo, King Rongliu, and then proclaimed himself the meaning of Da Mo Lizhi, that is, the meaning of the supreme regent, which is somewhat similar to the meaning of coercing the Son of Heaven to make Goguryeo, and became the de facto king of Goguryeo.
It is worth mentioning that Yuangai Suwen has a very strong mind, just take these Tang envoys sent by Jia Yiyan as an example, before the Sui Dynasty attacked Goguryeo, the killed piece of armor was not left, it stands to reason that Goguryeo and the Han people are already on the same footing, and there is no possibility of reconciliation at all, however, just in the Tang Dynasty, after defeating the great disaster of the Eastern Turks, it was like many countries, and sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to study. God knows if the people they sent will be directly clicked away by Li Er, if this kind of thing happens, what do you say let Yuan Gai Su Wen do, attack Datang to get back face? They don't have that power; Swallow your anger and act as if it hadn't happened? They have their pride.
Therefore, in this most sensitive period, Yuangai Suwen was very keenly aware of Li Er's thoughts, and sent Tang envoys at this juncture when Li Er was very happy, on the one hand, to let the Tang envoys ask the Tang Dynasty for Taoist scriptures, and on the other hand, to let these Tang envoys secretly learn some advanced technology of the Tang Dynasty, and after they returned, they could improve the production level of Goguryeo, which could be regarded as half a spy.
Li Er's complacent attitude made Yuangai Suwen take advantage of a loophole, although after Li Er lost the Eastern Turks, what he wanted to do most was to kill Goguryeo, a country that had always been entrenched in the north of the Central Plains, but now he is successively accepting worship and tribute from various countries, and his eyes are narrowed into lines every day, and he really doesn't have the time and energy to deal with Goguryeo about one or two Tang envoys.
Li Er doesn't care, but Jia Yi is not ready to release these two ducks to his mouth, anyway, they will definitely let Li Er plant a big heel in the future, since this is the case, then start from the present, and make preparations for the Tang Dynasty's attack on Goguryeo in the future, it is estimated that after their own excavation, Goguryeo will not only not let Li Er return with a feather, but may also let Li Er directly run through the entire Goguryeo.
With this plan in his heart, Jia Yi directly began to work in this direction, squeezing out a smile on his face, and said to the two Goguryeo Tang envoys, "That, I still have a little bit of this, but it's not much, but if you are not in a hurry, you can say a number, and I will try to piece it together for you." ”
Jia Yi said that it was difficult, and directly made the two Tang envoys of Goguryeo not doubt him, glanced at each other, and began to think carefully, of course, they couldn't just get some glass balls back, even if the glass balls were in good condition, but if they got a thousand eight hundred back, they would lose the meaning of collecting it, so it was best to get more glass products, so that the glass ware would depreciate less.
The two of them discussed for a while, and then turned to look at Jia Yi at the same time, and said with a smile: "If the lord has the ability, you might as well get more glassware, no matter how much you get, we all want it, what do you think?" ”
The glaze in the Tang Dynasty is completely by luck to fire out of the thing, can burn a little yellow garbage glaze is already a treasure, can make a little Jia Yi provided the glaze ball, can already be regarded as a big luck, so, in this era, regardless of any country on the earth, glaze has a very huge market.
What else can Jia Yi say, since they like sand, then it would be good to have unlimited supply, Jia Yi nodded and said that there was no problem, and then he personally sent the two people away, if it wasn't for making money, he wouldn't even pay attention to them, let alone send them in person.
Exporting glaze is a big deal, after all, there is still a soldier's guard in the glaze manufacturing factory, if you want to achieve the purpose that Jia Yi wants, then Jia Yi must go to Li Er to discuss this matter now, otherwise all he can provide is glass balls.
The weather was cold, if it was possible, Jia Yi really didn't want to move, but in order to be able to pit Goguryeo fiercely, Jia Yi decided to go to Chang'an City.
Called Cui Zhuang, Wang Yanping, who had been resting in the manor for a long time, also got into the car, and the three of them sat in the car while roasting the fire in this charcoal basin, and slowly marched towards Chang'an City.
Wang Yanping and Cui Zhuang didn't know what Jia Yi was going to Chang'an City for this time, and at the same time, they were not people who could hide the curiosity on their faces, although they didn't ask, but the doubts on their faces still made Jia Yi see the true thoughts of the two of them.
"I can't tell you about this, and you can't know about it, so don't ask, you just need to know that it's a big deal."
Jia Yi didn't want to say, and the remaining two people had no way to ask, and Cui Zhuang, who was very interested, thought that he could ask the reason from Jia Yi's mouth, but it turned out that he hit a soft nail, and he didn't know where to open for a while, and the whole carriage suddenly became quiet.
"Jia Yi, why are you so keen on making money?" Wang Yanping finally broke the uncomfortable tranquility in the carriage and asked the question that had existed in his heart for a long time.
Wang Yanping has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't dare to say that he knows the news in the world very clearly, but he has also heard of Jia Yi's name, and also knows that some things are deeply related to Jia Yi, although he understands that Jia Yi is born with the ability to make money, but he really can't understand that Jia Yi now wants a knighthood, money and money, and it is definitely not too difficult to live a life in peace, but why he is still so keen on making money, this is a bit puzzling, Does he really plan to become a high-ranking official in Datang with his ability to make money?
