Li Ji is not only the prime minister of the dynasty, but also a rich man in the Tang Dynasty, he has a lot of land, especially a lot of people. As early as the Sui Dynasty, there were thousands of servants in the family, and at that time, the Li family was just a local powerhouse.

And now, the Li family is the prime minister's house, the leader of the upstarts in Shandong, and I don't know how many slaves there are in the family. Li Xiao encouraged Li Ji to go to Baekje Tuntian, but in fact, he just wanted to take a boat with a tailwind.

Although the Lanxi Li family is now also squeezed into the ranks of the Tang Dynasty nobles, they are still too small after all. If Li Ji is also willing to go to Baekje Tuntian, then there will not only be policy support, for example, Li Ji said that he could let the Zhengdong Sailor sell the captives to the righteous merchants of Tuntian, then the slaves in Tuntian would have a source.

In addition, with Li Ji's relationship, it will definitely be convenient and cheap to buy land over there at that time. Moreover, after buying land over there, if the Li family can be next to Li Ji's Tunbao, it will be safer to be able to get rid of it at that time. Even if you go to Baekje, you can take their boat, or follow their fleet.

"Yinggong, don't look at the fact that Baekje is still at war, but in a few years, Baekje will inevitably destroy the country, and then it will be my Tang Dynasty's state and county. Baekje is no more bitter cold than Liaodong, although it is located in the east of the sea, but the climate there is no different from Jianghuai, and the fields are also very fertile. Li Xiao tempted Li Ji.

The land has a special allure for the people of this era. What kind of livelihood is not as simple as buying land, and buying land is to ensure income in drought and flood.

You may lose money in everything you do, but buying land will not lose money, it is also the most stable income, and it can also benefit from generations to generations, and land is the lifeblood of people in this era.

The emperor is the biggest landlord in the world, and the princes, nobles, and bureaucrats, which one is not a big landlord. People who have no land are the most miserable people of this era.

However, even if Li Ji is now a Taifu, a British duke, a third product under the Tongzhong Shumen, and a Zhongshu order, it is not said that he can buy land if he wants to buy it in the Central Plains. After all, the world is stable, and no one will sell land easily. The sale and purchase of land is also strictly regulated, and it is even more likely to cause accidents by stealing.

But Baekje is different, this is an undeveloped virgin land.

Before there are no restrictions from the imperial court, it is the most cost-effective to hurry up. Now to buy land, it is cheap and easy to buy, you can buy as much as you want, you can pick the best hands, you can buy land in a row, which is the most suitable for cultivation and management.

It's better than a small piece of broken ground here.

If you want to buy such a good land in the Central Plains, dream of it.

And as Li Xiao said, the land on the Baekje side is indeed better than the land west of the Longyou River, the climate is pleasant, and the land is fertile, especially if the imperial court conquers Baekje, there is no need to worry, after all, the Samhan Peninsula is just a peninsula, except for the south there is also a Fuso, there is no threat.

It is a good land like JAC, but there is no price of one hundred of JAC, there are no restrictions, if you don't start now, you will indeed regret it in the future.

Li Ji finally reached an agreement with Li Xiao, and the two Li went to Baekje Tuntian together. Li Ji actually doesn't have much motivation to make money, after all, the Li family's money is too big to count, and there are piles of copper coins in the treasury, and many of the ropes that tie the money are rotten because they have been useless for too long.

The Li family's silk piles can't be counted.

But Li Ji attaches more importance to the land, he has many children and grandchildren, but not all of them are successful. According to his words, after the Tuntian over there is a little better, he will arrange for a son who is not a good person to take care of it, in fact, it is to arrange a son to spread the branches and leaves there, so that the Li family will have one more Baekje house from now on.

This can be regarded as a century-old plan for the Li family.

Li Xiao talked so much to Li Ji, firstly, he wanted to use Li Ji's position to pull some policy support, and secondly, he still wanted to borrow some people and money from Li Ji.

It was a very risky business to go to Baekje Tuntian and hunt slaves, buy ships and weapons, and recruit outlaws, all of which cost money. In addition to these, you have to take advantage of the opportunity to buy as much land as possible, and then you have to buy slaves, ploughing cattle, farm tools, etc., which are not cheap.

Li Xiao has some money in his hand now, but not much, it costs a lot to buy cattle, and it costs a lot to set up a workshop, so he wants to borrow some from Li Ji first.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, isn't it just to borrow some money, just say how much you want." Li Ji is rich and rich, and the Li family is very rich, but Li Ji can't say exactly how much money he has, anyway, he is very rich.

"Ying Gong, not only to borrow money, but also to borrow some people from you. This going to Baekje Tuntian is not like just catching slaves, you have to ask for people in all aspects. You also know that my Lanxi Li family used to be just a small family, and there was no clan family, so there were not many credible people. ”

"No problem, just tell me how much you want to borrow, and I'll arrange it for you."

Li Ji wanted to arrange for someone to go to Baekje Tuntian, which was for the sake of the Li family's hundred years and millennium. Although the Central Plains is large, it is inevitable to divide and merge, and every two or three hundred years must experience a division and merge, and establish a branch for the Li family in Baekje, which is also for the Li family.

In case something happens to the main trunk of the Central Plains, there will be branches of the border areas in the future, and the continuation of the Li family can continue.

"Baekje Tuntian is a strong group of people, if more aristocratic families can go to Baekje Tuntian, the safer it will be for us."

Li Xiao is not worried that there will be more people going and there will be conflicts of interest, now that Baekje is blank, everyone can go to enclosure as much as they want, even the imperial court will acquiesce, after all, the imperial court does not have the ability to bring the entire Baekje into direct control, and the imperial court also hopes that with the help of these wealthy families, it can stabilize the newly controlled Baekje.

For Li Xiao, if there are more aristocratic and wealthy families, then there is no need to worry about changes in the imperial court's policies. Everyone has invested so much, even if the imperial court wants to withdraw at that time, it is estimated that everyone will not be willing. With them speaking out in the court, long-term interests can be guaranteed.

What Li Xiao has to do now is to show everyone a way, and then follow this torrent into Baekje and go to the staking land to your heart's content.

"The Cheng family, the Xue family, the Su family, etc., contact a few more. If you have money, everyone will earn it together, and if you have a good land, everyone will circle it together, even if it is the Son of Heaven, we can also persuade Your Majesty to send a lieutenant official to set up a few imperial estates in the circle. ”

Li Xiao looks like I am a loyal minister, and I am thinking about His Majesty the Emperor everywhere.

"Hahaha." Li Ji laughed, "There's nothing wrong with this, it's just a hello." However, Xiangrui, if you go to Baekje to preside over it in person, I will be more relieved. ”

Li Xiao hurriedly waved his hand, pull it down, my Lanxi Li family is just such a single seedling as me, this Baekje has only conquered one city now, who knows how much time it will take to completely conquer those sticks, and I will not go to such a dangerous place.

"How can I, Li Xiao, be qualified to preside over the situation, naturally I still have to send my children from the UK to preside over the overall situation."

"Let Jingyou go." Li Jidao, Li Jingyou is Li Ji's grandson and the second son of his eldest son Li Zhen. Li Ji still has a few concubines, but he finally decided to let his second grandson go instead of picking a concubine, and his idea is more traditional.

After all, Li Jingyou is a large family, on the other hand, Li Jingyou is also relatively young, and young people have nothing to worry about, so they can just go and break through.
