Chapter 416: Nanzhao's 'Aid' Plan

After a period of ideological struggle, King Nanzhao finally chose to believe in Qin Hao for the time being, because Nanzhao is now facing almost a dead end, even if it is a dead horse as a live horse doctor, he has to gamble.

"I don't know how Rong Guogong plans to help me unify Nanzhao, what do I have to pay for Nanzhao?"

Qin Hao smiled and said: "Simple, your country is originally the strongest among the Nanzhao countries, and it is the most respectful to the Tian Khan among the Nanzhao countries, you directly start a war on your side, we don't care who you fight, the reason is that you think about it yourself, my Datang can directly send troops to help, as for the military food supply blade equipment, all of them are borne by my Datang, I think, at most, it is three or five years of hard work, Nanzhao can be determined." ”

King Nanzhao was stunned for a moment, he thought that at most it was some support in materials, but he didn't want Qin Hao to directly propose to send troops, such a big thing was only done by a county magistrate? Besides, it's easy to invite God and it's hard to send God, if the army of the Tang Dynasty really enters Nanzhao, what if it doesn't leave.

"This... Datang is now preparing to seal Zen, which... ”

Poof, Qin Hao was amused by this lovely king.

"Brother, you don't think that the little Nanzhao, I Datang still need to drive the army to help, the Guanzhong soldiers will not move, they have eaten enough meat in the past two years, and it is almost the same to use the Jiangnan soldiers to help you, we will help you unify mainly to curb the slave capture team, you can rest assured, Datang will never want your Nanzhao land."

"That'...... What does Datang want. ”

"What do you want? Friends, of course! Why do I have so many slaves? In order to grow sugarcane, if after reunification, you Nanzhao grow sugarcane by yourself, and then transport the sugarcane out and sell it to us, won't it be okay, don't you worry, sugarcane does not pick land, will not occupy your rice fields, and I Datang can also pass on Champa rice to you to increase your grain production. ”

King Nanzhao pondered for a long time in his heart, and said: "Rongguo Gong is not taking this king as a fool to coax it, your sugarcane is planted in Lingnan, where the terrain is flat and easy to manage, not to mention, there are supporting facilities for sugar making and winemaking, the most important thing is that there is a coastal and excellent port, and most of the output can be sold directly from Quanzhou to the Hu people's maritime merchants or transported away, at present, the land reclamation law is not high, and the profit of buying slaves is far higher than buying sugar with us, I don't understand it, besides, as far as I know, those ownerless wastelands in Lingnan have been distributed to the local government soldiers, hehe, help me fight, and then I will plant sugar cane, who will want these government soldiers? Rong Guogong, you seem to be making fun of me. ”

Qin Hao smiled, the geographical conditions of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau were almost incomprehensible to the feudal society, and it was really difficult to die if he wanted to pick money from it.

However, compared to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, how can it be stronger, so Qin Hao thought about it for the past two days, and finally came up with a way that was not a solution.

"So, in addition to planting sugarcane, my Datang naturally needs some other things to compensate, Nanzhao has one thing that is actually good, but you haven't paid attention to it."

"Oh? Then you have to ask Rong Guogong for advice, what is it? ”

"Tree."

"Huh? Tree? What kind of treasure is this? ”

The Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau is full of mountains, and the mountains are naturally full of trees, and the climate in this place is hot and rains, which will hardly be developed, and the red sandalwood flowers sold in the 21st century are everywhere, and the quality is quite good, this is really the only natural resource that Nanzhao can get his hands on, and the main sale of this piece in the future is flowers and cigarettes, but the special cigarettes are still in the Americas and have not been obtained, as for flowers, who spends money to buy this.

However, King Nanzhao obviously didn't understand what the relationship between the tree and the treasure was, so Qin Hao explained:

"Datang is now too much work, the daily need for wood is gone, but you know, really high-quality good wood, Guanzhong is not much, and then cut down Guanzhong will be cut bald, let me tell you a situation, now Datang shipbuilding, the main material must be transported from Sichuan and Shu, alas, Shu Road is difficult, it is difficult to go to the sky, and as far as I know, the quality of Sichuan and Shu wood is actually not too good, the real ancient trees are far less than Nanzhao, if you are willing to cooperate with my Datang, Nanzhao will be my Datang after that, Especially the main source of wood south of the Yangtze River, then, we are friends, friends, naturally no one will bully you, how? ”

King Nanzhao thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't understand how wood was valuable.

In fact, this is really no way, the tree thing, it seems to be a lot, but once it is cut down on a large scale, it will not take long to cut it down, and once it is cut down and then want to plant, it will be difficult.

If you want the Tang Dynasty to buy the trees of Nanzhao, this difficulty is actually not small, you have to popularize the concept of soil erosion for them first, and it is forbidden to cut down the trees in the pass, Qin Hao has long wanted to do this, this is also just an opportunity, if it weren't for the fact that the Tang Dynasty cut down the trees in the pass too much, the Yellow River would not have become the beep of the later generations.

Although it is also very troublesome to transport wood on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, although it will also kill people, it is better than Sichuan and Shu, and it is not the Tang people who died, and it may be more troublesome to transport it to Guanzhong, but it is still more convenient to transport it to Jiangnan Lingnan.

However, this practice is actually quite pitiful to the people of Nanzhao, although their trees grow quickly, and they don't have to worry too much about soil erosion, but the old trees are always limited, and once they are cut down, future generations will suffer.

When he was in Liaodong, in order to find coke and steel, he had almost cut down the Great Xing'an Mountains, and now he is fighting the idea of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, which is somewhat lacking in morality.

But Qin Hao really can't help it, even if there is a little mine in that place, he won't pay attention to the trees, but unfortunately there are no big mines over there in his impression, oh, a little rare earth, at least Qin Hao doesn't think that the scientific and technological development of Datang can be used one day in his lifetime.

There may still be some coal, but the amount of this thing Datang is not large, and Jinju is on the edge of Guanzhong, and you can knock cinders on your heels, who will buy coal from you.

So Qin Hao, who really has no choice, can only make this decision, at least I hope that this can save the fate of the people of Nanzhao as slaves, this is doing a good deed.

Of course, in order to facilitate the annexation of the Nanzhao regime in the future, the establishment of a concession and the opening of the Tang Federal Reserve are also necessary conditions, and the specific location and detailed rules can be discussed again, and this general policy must first be finalized.

After getting the king of Nanzhao, Qin Hao took a simple plan and went to Li Shimin, but he didn't count this kind of thing. ()
