Chapter 421: Xuanfu Yimin
Li Hao learned from Cui Peng that the young woman in front of him was the leader of the Ziliu tribe, named Sayka, although she was a woman, but she was influenced by her father since she was a child, and her father dealt with the affairs of the tribe, her father had no sons, only two daughters, and Sayka was the eldest daughter, and she was very capable of doing things, so after the death of the old leader, Sayka inherited the position of leader, and after Sayka inherited the position of leader, the first decision she made was to make friends with the Tang Dynasty, and there were many people who opposed her decision at that time. However, three years have passed, and now everyone in the Ziliu tribe is praising her, because after forming a friendly relationship with the Tang Dynasty, their life is much better, they will farm, although the harvest is not high, but at least they will not worry about food, and they also have beautiful and comfortable clothes to wear, no longer need to wear animal skins or those clothes made of tree bark, those things are really uncomfortable to wear, stuffy and hot, and they will itch all over. Fastest updates
Sayka is indeed very discerning, although she knows that the arrival of the Tang people belongs to the invasion of their territory, but she knows that the Tang people are too strong to be stopped by their strength, this will be the general trend, instead of resisting, it is better to make friends, so that everyone's life can be a little better, and now it has been proved that her decision is very wise.
"Thank you!" Li Hao smiled indifferently, strode to the main seat and sat down, and then said slowly, "Leaders, I have summoned you here today to talk to you about cooperation. ”
Hearing this, the five leaders whispered for a while, and Saika took the lead and asked, "May I ask King Jonan, how do you want to cooperate?" ”
Li Hao said slowly: "What do you lack, what does this king give." ”
Hearing this, the five leaders exclaimed in surprise and began to talk in a low voice again, and after a while, it was still Saika who spoke: "Lord, what help do you need from us?" ”
Li Hao said slowly: "This king needs land, of course, this king will not squeeze your living territory, everyone is an ally, there is no need to dump each other." ”
Sayka Fox asked, "That's all there is to it?" ”
Li Hao said: "This king also hopes that you can move some other tribes, so that they can form an alliance with our Tang Dynasty like you, if you can gather more than 150,000 indigenous people, then this king will provide you with a magical rice seed, this rice seed yield is very high, the yield per mu is 700 catties!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the five leaders exclaimed, and immediately an old man questioned: "How can there be such rice seeds in the world!" ”
Li Hao smiled lightly: "You haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean that you don't, Datang is a big place, what kind of magical things are not, have you ever been to Datang?" ”
This sentence frightened everyone, yes, although they are indigenous leaders, they have grown up in the mountains of Qiongnan in this life, and their horizons are so big, when have they been to Datang, what a prosperous and powerful country Datang is.
Li Hao continued: "This rice seed is called Zhenguan Rice, the growth rate is fast, it can be three crops, with this rice seed, I believe that all your tribes will have endless food in the future!" ”
Everyone was shocked again, Saika knew that Li Hao's status was noble and he would not lie at will, so he hurriedly responded: "Lord Wang, we are willing to persuade other tribes, hoping that Lord Wang can keep his promise." ”
Li Hao nodded and said: "This king represents the Tang Dynasty, naturally he has a promise, and this king will also send special people to guide you on how to plant rice. ”
The leaders blushed when they heard this, although they learned from the Tang Dynasty to farm, but they only imitated a fifty or sixty percent, drawing tiger cats, and did not master the various essentials of farming, so the yield was very low.
Li Hao said: "Not only that, in the future, this king will set up a fleet at sea, often transport a large number of materials here, this king encourages you to trade with the people of the Tang Dynasty, exchange with each other, this king knows, you have a lot of precious animal skins, animal gall, animal whip herbs or something, these are things that our Tang people like, and our Tang people's ceramics, cloth, tea, toilet paper, toothpaste, soap or something, I think you will also like it." ”
Hearing this, Saika asked excitedly, "Will the prince really transport these things to Qiongnan?" Cui Dudu once gave his father some tea, soap and toothpaste, which were really good things, and Saika still kept them, and he was reluctant to use them. ”
Li Hao smiled proudly when he heard this, and said: "These things are the king's own business, how much you want, you will have it in the future, in the future, as long as you are willing to cooperate with this king, you will live no worse than the people of the Tang Dynasty." ”
An old man asked curiously, "Tea?" What is it, and what is toothpaste, soap? ”
Li Hao had already prepared, smiled and took out a piece of soap, toothpaste and toothbrush, and a small bag of tea from his arms, and then said: "Chief Saika, this king has brought tea, you have hot water." ”
Sayka got up excitedly: "Yes! She said that she went out to call someone to send hot water, and then put on a few black coarse porcelain bowls, made a few bowls of tea, suddenly, the fragrance of tea overflowed, the room was full of fresh aroma, especially refreshing, the leaders have not tasted the tea, they have even called magical, Li Hao brought the best tea.
Li Hao lied: "Tea is in our Datang, it can only be drunk by people with status and status, you are all leaders, and your status is not low, so you must taste our Datang tea." ”
Li Hao's words were a bit of a compliment to them, but they listened to it very usefully, at least they all smiled.
After a while, the tea was almost brewed, and Li Hao said: "Everyone, please drink tea, although the tea set is a little simple, but this tea is definitely a good tea, this king himself is usually reluctant to drink, only used to entertain distinguished guests." ”
When the leaders heard this, they were even more excited, and they all picked up the tea bowls and couldn't wait to drink them, but they only took a sip and frowned, and the old leader asked unhappily: "This tea...... Why is it a little bitter? ”
Li Hao smiled and said: "Tea, contains the philosophy of life in it, when I first entered, I felt bitter, but after a careful taste, it was fragrant in both mouth and nose, isn't life the same, work hard when you are young, and when you are old, you can naturally enjoy your old age." ”
The leaders smacked their lips according to his words, and really felt that their mouths and noses were full of aroma, and some people couldn't help but take another sip, but found that the second sip was not so bitter, and even exhaled magically.
Soon, the leaders were conquered by Li Hao's tea, and then, Li Hao asked Sayika to show the use of soap and toothpaste and toothbrush in public, which once again opened the eyes of the leaders.
Next, continuing to talk about business, Saika said: "Lord, you said, what do we need, what do you provide?" ”
"That's right." Li Hao nodded.
Saika said: "We also need you to send someone to teach us the writing of the Tang Dynasty, and send a doctor to treat the people of our tribe." ”
"No problem." Li Hao nodded, "This king originally planned to open a school here, publicize the education of our emperor, and let all the natives of Qiongnan get rid of barbarism, and this king will also set up a medical hall, and welcome all the indigenous people to go for treatment, of course, this king still hopes that everyone is healthy and healthy, and it is better to get less sick." ”
Hearing this, Saika hurriedly discussed with the other four leaders, and everyone quickly reached a consensus, Saika replied to Li Hao, saying: "Prince, we have agreed to your request, we will immediately go to persuade the other tribes, and after the matter is completed, we will inform the prince." ”
"Well, this king awaits your good news." Li Hao got up slowly, and said with a smile on his face, "This king still has something to do, so let's go first." ”
"Send the prince!" All the leaders saluted in unison, and then sent Li Hao out of the tribe.
Li Hao walked out of the Ziliu tribe, turned his head to look at the Ziliu tribe, and said to himself happily: "Alas, this group of natives has been assimilated by half of our Tang Dynasty, and it is convenient to communicate, as long as they are dealt with, those diehards will be easy to handle, hehe." ”
Li Hao went back and waited for seven days, and Sayka sent someone to deliver the news, they had persuaded sixteen tribes, a total of 170,000 indigenous people, but they still needed Li Hao to go again, after all, without Li Hao's personal promise, the leaders of the other tribes were not at ease.
Li Hao immediately went to the Ziliu tribe again, and talked with the twenty-one tribal leaders again, and the content of the conversation was basically the same as the last time, but Li Hao used the means of grace and power this time, his meaning was very simple, if they still rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, then he didn't mind playing the Tang Emperor and mobilizing a large army to suppress it.
Those original neutrals immediately fell to Li Hao's side under Li Hao's combined means.
The propaganda work went exceptionally smoothly, and Li Hao soon began to fulfill his promise, sending a large number of rice seeds to the Ziliu tribe, and also sent dozens of skilled farmers to guide the farming of various tribes, and each of these farmers brought a ploughing ox over, which made those indigenous leaders excited.
Next, Li Hao sent people to buy all kinds of animal skins, animal galls, animal whips, herbs and other things from these natives, and flowed the currency of the Tang Dynasty into the indigenous people, at first these indigenous leaders were unhappy, they liked barter, and they didn't like the copper coins of the Tang Dynasty, after all, they were natives, and it was useless to ask for money, but Li Hao promised that he would open a medical center, and the indigenous people would only use the currency of the Tang Dynasty to go to the medical center for medical treatment, and the medical center would be cured.
As soon as they heard this, the indigenous leaders immediately compromised, so the currency officially flowed into the indigenous people, and Li Haoxuan's first step to appease the indigenous people of Qiongnan has been taken steadily.
Just when Li Hao was implementing the Xuanfu plan, the Yashan tribe also convened a meeting of various diehard tribes, and they were very unhappy about the behavior of King Qiongnan to appease the indigenous people, and decided to discuss a plan to sabotage.
The leader of the Yashan tribe, Chelo, was a rough man in his forties, who had been rebelling against the Tang people since he took the position of leader twelve years ago, and now he was the boss of the indigenous diehards, after all, his tribe was the most powerful.
The results of this discussion came out quickly, Chelo decided to act separately, the Moluo tribe quietly went to kill the planting instructors sent by the Tang Dynasty to each tribe, the Qiruo tribe took two tribes to attack Zhenzhou, the Dawara tribe took two tribes to attack Li Hao's palace and Qiongzhou, and Chelo led the other two tribes to bypass Qiongzhou to attack Yazhou.
Chelo is very confident in this operation, because they usually go to rob during the harvest season, but this time is different, this time it is a surprise attack that violates the convention, called attacking them unprepared, this time the Tang people are really angry with them, they want to retaliate, they want to kill, they want to teach the Tang people a cruel lesson!
