Chapter 1459: A visit to Fusang

"Thank you Dong Lao for reminding me." Pan Niandu bowed to Dong Lao seriously, if it weren't for this old thing's reminder, he would probably go down this road, and he might end up with a good death, but he would definitely not be rewarded by Li Jing.

"Hey!" Dong Lao shook his head, and he heard a burst of footsteps slowly leaving.

Pan Niandu's whole person seemed to be fished out of the pond, his face was pale, standing on the Pan Tower, looking at the white patch in the distance, the gorgeous palace in the past was covered by white at the moment, and the entire Bianjing City became quiet, faintly visible that there were many soldiers patrolling the city wall, looking at it from afar, you could feel a murderous aura. Pan Niandu's eyes flashed with a trace of fear, looking at Dong Lao behind him, his face was cloudy, and finally turned into a long sigh, even if he lived a little aggrieved, it was better than losing his life.

In the palace, in the imperial study, the lights are bright, and the earth dragon has already been lit, making the room warm as spring. Li Jing was wearing a single coat, and Cao Jing on the opposite side was also full of smiles.

"Thirty million taels of silver, what a fortune!" Li Jing leaned on the soft couch, looking a little proud, killing people and setting fire to the gold belt, this kind of family and extermination is the same, more than 40 properties are either confiscated, or half of the fines are confiscated, so that Li Jing makes a lot of money, the original full treasury, at this moment the silver coins are piled up like a mountain, Cao Jing's face looks much better.

"Your Majesty, this kind of thing, the minister thinks it's better to do less in the future." Cao Jing smiled bitterly. Although it is an open and honest money from other people's pockets, if you do too much, I am afraid that it will also make others gossip, and it will also hit the heart of a businessman.

"Naturally." Li Jing is not a fool, even if he cuts leeks, he can't cut them often, he can only selectively make a few clicks to bring himself some money at a critical time. In the long run, it can only bring adverse effects to the imperial court, and it will bring bad habits to the monarchs of later generations, and in the end, it can only be a bad etiquette, and all the merchants in the world will oppose it.

"Your Majesty, what about this bond?" Cao Jing asked again, with a base of 30 million taels, it is naturally a good thing not to use bonds, and the pressure on the Ministry of Rites will be much less. Although some bonds are issued, but again,

"It's still released, is this also a benefit to the people? It doesn't have to be some big businessmen, even ordinary people can buy it. Li Jing waved his hand and said: "This kind of bond should be made to look better, delicate, durable, and solid, not only easy to store, but more importantly, it can also be circulated." This is covered with the big seal of the political hall, which was written by Zhao Ding and others, and the words of these people are now worth a lot of silver, and after a few years or even decades, are these people's words more valuable? ”

"With this money, it is impossible not to do without, and the minister believes that there must also be a charter for use, and education, water conservancy, and transportation are the main uses of money. Militarily, it is really only necessary to have bonds. Cao Jing glanced at Li Jing cautiously, he was afraid that Li Jing would use all this money to recruit troops and buy horses, which would be a bit of a reckless feeling.

"The imperial court has been using troops every year for these years, and then, for a long time, it is to resume production, the climate in the south of the Yangtze River is mild, and the agriculture and mulberry are suitable, and it will be a large grain producer of the imperial court, and this place must be managed well." Li Jing thought for a while and said: "I have already decided, Jiangnan produces more rice, and some places plant sericulture, when, after I take Zhancheng and other places, I can specialize in this place to grow grain and supply the Central Plains, so we must send people to build roads in these places and prepare in advance to enter Zhancheng and other places." ”

Cao Jing didn't speak, but a trace of fear arose in his heart, he knew that Zhancheng and other places were suitable for planting rice, and even some of the rice seeds in the south of the imperial court were from Zhancheng and other places, but Zhancheng and other places could not specialize in planting rice! Li Jing is like this, obviously thinking about squeezing everything on the peninsula such as Zhancheng. However, isn't this what Coco Li has always been like? As long as your people live well, you don't care about other things.

"Also, it's Goryeo, it's really a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, the Jin people have retreated, and there is not even a little news coming from them, it's really damn good." Li Jing's face was gloomy, this time Brother Xiao Wei's defeat was of course due to Brother Xiao Wei's own factors, but more importantly, Gaoli, as a subject country of the Tang Dynasty, actually did not notify the Tang Dynasty, it was a great crime, he didn't believe that Gaoli didn't know the news of the Jin people's evacuation.

"How is Your Majesty going to deal with Goryeo?" Cao Jing's eyes lit up, every attack meant that the imperial court would have a lot of money coming in, and Cao Jing, the head of the household, would become more free in money.

"If you want to deal with Goryeo, you must first wait for Han Shizhong to find time." Li Jing found a book on the side and said with a smile: "When Zhao and Song Dynasty were in the past, they set Qiongzhou as the state of sin, but they didn't expect that their descendants would actually fall into the state and rely on the state to resist the attack of the Tang Dynasty. Until now, Zhao Huan didn't even dare to enter Qiongzhou, but just stopped on the big boat. "Qiongzhou and the Central Plains are separated by a sea, until now, it is still an undeveloped wild land, miasma, some indigenous people are still stopped at the point of drinking blood in Rumao, although for more than 100 years, the officials who were exiled to Sinzhou by the Zhao and Song Dynasty courts have also reluctantly opened up some territory, but for Zhao Huan, it is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket.

"The minister took a look at Qiongzhou, Qiongzhou is divided into one state and three armies, but there are some soldiers and horses. I don't know if these soldiers and horses can be of great use. Cao Jing Zhengrong said that he is not an ordinary businessman now, he is an important official of the imperial court, and he is also strict with himself on weekdays, and he reads a lot, but he can express some opinions.

"Han Shizhong's sailors are advancing very quickly, I believe that the battle will be resolved soon, and Han Shizhong can be sent to Han Shizhong, after solving Zhao Huan, lead the army to the north and go to Goryeo to play, I believe that those soldiers like to go to Goryeo very much." Li Jing said with a smile.

"The minister also heard that the Goryeo women are white and beautiful, and they are more obedient than the women of the Central Plains, and they are deeply liked by the soldiers." Cao Jing also smiled: "Although the soldiers under Han Shizhong's command feel tired, I believe that if they go to Goryeo, the soldiers will definitely like it." ”

Li Jing moved when he heard this, stood up, looked at the map in front of him, and said: "You send someone to the Ministry of Rites, look for the sea chart of the Fusang envoy's tribute, and then let Han Shizhong go to the southeast coastal area, there must be merchants to go to Fusang, let Han Shizhong go to Fusang for a walk, Fusang women are more super Goryeo, and Fusang has a lot of gold, I believe a lot has been collected over the years." "Li Jing has long wanted to do something to Fusang, and after cleaning up Zhao Huan this time, he just has such an opportunity, how can he miss it.
