As soon as Li Hong woke up late in the evening, he saw Wei Zhiqiang coming to report to him, saying that Dog Yanghu and Xue Feng had been waiting for him in the Chongjiao Hall for a long time. Li Hong got up to wash, drank another bowl of millet porridge, and then came to the Chongjiao Hall slowly.

He didn't plan to separate the two because it wasn't necessary. The people who will be in prison, except for the chief official who will be in prison, the rest of the people are just craftsmen, and they are not taken into account by the people who are officials at all, and Li Hong is no exception, of course, Li Hong, a talented person, still cherishes it very much.

Dog Yanghu and Xue Feng had been waiting for Li Hong in the Chongjiao Hall for three hours, and now when they saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince walking into the main hall, the two hurriedly stepped forward to salute Li Hong.

"No need to be polite, sit down." Li Hong said lightly, and walked to the main seat and sat down. When Dog Yanghu and Xue Feng saw Li Hong sit down, the two of them sat in their respective positions.

"I don't know what His Highness is doing when he comes to the ministers?" Xue Feng opened his mouth and asked, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't mind summoning him in front of the Fusang people, he didn't feel that he was hiding anything in front of dogs, sheep and tigers.

Li Hong glanced at Xue Feng and asked with a smile, "How is the embroidered spring knife casting?" ”

"Half of the tasks have been completed, and half of them will be completed in two months." Xue Feng replied. Because Li Hong gave him a lot of convenient conditions, and also gave him a lot of support in terms of money, his forging speed was also much faster.

"Is there a large number of craftsmen who are familiar with smelting steel and forging?" Li Hong asked, "If there is, you make a list for Gu, and Gu has other arrangements for them, so let's borrow them for a few days from you as a prisoner." ”

On the one hand, Li Hong plans to use these people to smelt steel in the newly opened iron ore smelter, and on the other hand, he wants to use these people to study artillery and fire in the manor. Gun. To be honest, he doesn't know if Datang has technical talents in this area now, but the general supervisor, the Shaofu supervisor and the ordnance supervisor are the core departments of Datang's technology, and it is necessary for him to poach people from here, if there are people he needs, it would be better, if not, he can only be cultivated slowly. Datang is still in the era of cold weapons, even if he invests a lot of manpower and financial resources, without more than ten years of research, it is estimated that it will be difficult to reach the era of hot weapons.

"Please rest assured Your Highness about this, the minister will handle it immediately after he returns." Xue Feng got up and replied.

"Are you familiar with the young government supervisor, the general supervisor, and the ordnance supervisor?" Li Hong asked, seeing Xue Feng nodding slightly, he continued to speak, "Do they have any talents in this area, if so, you can also recommend a few people to Gu, when people like to study KitKat tricks, Gu also likes it, you should pay attention to it in the future." ”

After hearing this, Xue Feng was stunned for a moment, and then bowed down and replied, "No! ”

"You did a good job this time, Gu is very happy, I will reward you with a thousand copper coins, and I will go to Yan Zhuang to collect it later." Li Hong said lightly. Everyone has **, and the ** of an official is nothing more than power and money, but now he has no ability to give Xue Fengquan, so he can only give him money. He did this, not to buy Xue Feng, but to think of rewarding and punishing clearly. Because only in this way can the people around him work harder to do things.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward!" Xue Feng said excitedly, and bowed down and exited the hall.

Dog Yang Hu has been listening to the conversation between Li Hong and Xue Feng, he doesn't know what Li Hong wants to do, but he needs to be so a craftsman, and he is also a blacksmith, Dog Yang Hu seems to understand a little, this has something to do with the study of weapons. With such a guess, the dog and the tiger were even more glad that they had climbed up to His Royal Highness the Tang Prince. Because after the matter of Li Hong fighting dogs with Tubo spread, the power of the embroidered spring knife also spread, and Sang Ying lost his life for the embroidered spring knife, which raised the power of the embroidered spring knife to a height, and the dog, sheep and tiger also knew the embroidered spring knife, and they were very greedy.

He climbed Li Hong, and the main purpose was to embroider the spring knife.

Now he guessed that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty needed so many blacksmiths, and it seemed that he was still researching weapons, and they were definitely more powerful than embroidered spring knives. Does this upset him? If he can really buy these weapons and give his Royal Highness the Tang Crown Prince a huge profit, then will his father be able to rule Fusang?

Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the dog's mouth. His own father ruled Fuso, and after his death, wasn't Fuso his own?

"Dog, sheep and tiger, do you know the purpose of Lone's summoning you today?" Just when the dog and the tiger were dreaming, Li Hong asked. The dog and the tiger immediately came back to their senses, and replied respectfully, "I don't know, and I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for guidance." ”

"There are a few fleets that have gone to your Fusang, and you write to your father to let him take care of them in Fusang in the future." Li Hong said lightly. It seems that this thing should be done by dogs, sheep and tigers, and it is the same thing.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will inform my father as soon as I go back." Dog Yanghu replied, can help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, let him owe him a favor, Dog Yanghu is happy to do this, because in his understanding, the kings of the Tang Dynasty like face, and they all like to be benevolent and righteous, the enemy rebels, and send troops to defeat the country, not to say that they ask for money to cultivate their own losses, but to send money, food and titles. Therefore, he is more willing to let Li Hong owe their father and son favors, so that if their father and son have any difficulties in the future, they can ask Li Hong for help with confidence.

"Lone told you before that I was going to send you a batch of books to Fusang, and now you can go and do it immediately." Li Hong said, "In addition, Gu is also going to send a group of senior monks to your Fusang, to help you Fusang people, so that they can do less evil and do more good deeds." At the same time, I am also going to send a few cultivators to your Fusang to promote the Taoist culture of our Tang Dynasty. You should also inform your father and the king of Fuso in this regard, and let them receive them well. ”

The eyes of dogs, sheep and tigers are straight, is there such a good thing?

"Of course, because this group of people go to Fusang and need classic books when they preach, so the books that will be sent to you in Fusang this time, in addition to the Buddhist scriptures, are the Taoist classics "Tao Te Ching", in addition, Lone will also send 10,000 copies of the "Analects" of Confucius to Fusang, Lone hopes that you can treat these books well, so that they can play a role in promoting the Tang Dynasty culture in your Fusang." Li Hong Chunchun induced the dog and the tiger to say.

Sending Buddhism and monks to Fusang, Li Hong is to let the Buddhist idea of compassion envelop Fusang, and at the same time he is a little uneasy, because many Buddhist monks have very deep cultural knowledge, and they know a lot, if this knowledge is passed on to the Fusang people, it is very unfavorable to the Tang Dynasty, so what should I do? Li Hong's method was to send a few Taoists to Fusang, called teaching teachings, but in fact to supervise and monitor, once they found that Buddhism was suspected of imparting other knowledge, they could use the pretext of Buddhist symbolism to eradicate these people...

As for sending the Analects, it was a plan in Li Hong's cultural aggression. Because his academy has not yet been established, and no talents in this area have been cultivated, so his plan cannot be implemented, but once the academy is established and talents in this area are cultivated, he will definitely be sent to Fusang to educate the people of Fusang...

However, for Fusang, which is poor in knowledge and scarce in books, it is already very good to be able to send books, no matter what type of books it is, but also to send monks and monks to Fusang, which is something that dogs, sheep and tigers dare not think of!

It is normal for dogs, sheep and tigers to have such a mental reaction, because at this time, Fusang's worship of Datang has reached the point of no return.

After being shocked for a moment, the dog and the tiger finally came back to their senses, knelt down to Li Hong and said, "Thank you to His Royal Highness the Prince, the ministers and the father, and Fusang, I don't know how to thank His Highness for his great kindness." ”

Half of what he said was out of flattery for Li Hong, and half was sincere.

"No thanks, I heard that your Fusang is rich in gold, and when your fleet comes to Datang next year, let them pull a few boats of gold." Li Hong said lightly, it seems that the gold of Fusang is like Chinese cabbage.

The dog and the tiger were stunned, but still agreed, "No! ”

The reason why he was stunned was not that Li Hong opened his mouth widely, judging by his current way of thinking, Li Hong gave them so much, and it was not much to ask for such a little gold. What really stunned him was that Fusang was rich in gold, and only their Fusang upper-class nobles knew about it, how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty know it so clearly?

"By the way, I forgot the most important thing I told you." Li Hong suddenly remembered something and said.

"Your Highness, please." The dog and the tiger said respectfully.

"In the future, Gu is ready to send more talents to your Fusang to assist your Fusang King to develop the Fusang country, so that Fusang will become more powerful like the Great Tang, but because of the incomprehensible language and writing of the two Chinese, there will be many problems, and it may hinder the development of assisting you Fusang, so Gu means that from now on, I want you Fusang people to learn the words and languages of the Great Tang, what do you think?" Li Hong said meaningfully.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, we in Fusang have already had a lot of people learning your Tang Dynasty writing and language, but it has not yet been popularized, but since His Highness said so, the minister must report to his father and ask him to convey His Royal Highness's words to the king, so that the whole country of Fusang can learn the Tang Dynasty language and language." The dog and the tiger said respectfully.

At that time, Datang was even stronger than the current United States, just like the current Chinese people were desperately trying to learn English for a green card, and the Fusang people at that time were also desperately learning the culture of Datang in order to come to Datang to gild or live.

Now many people say that the Tang culture is in Japan, this sentence is very biased, but there is also his truth, that is, the Fusang people did worship the Tang culture to the point of almost fanaticism.

Therefore, for the current dogs, sheep, tigers and Fusang people, it is normal for Li Hong to let them learn the culture of the Tang Dynasty and learn the language of the Tang Dynasty, there is no such thing as so-called cultural aggression, they are sincere and willing to learn...

The dog and the tiger got a lot of benefits from Li Hong, so he nodded and left.

Only Li Hong showed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth when he left. Because this is just the beginning, in the future, when Wang Fangyi sits firmly in the position of the protector of the Western Regions, the policies he implements for Fusang will also be implemented in the Western Regions. In his plan, it is not his goal to occupy the Western Regions, he wants to completely integrate the Western Regions into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and it is a real integration of culture and land, rather than superficial submission...
