A small trouble in the diplomacy of the Tang Dynasty, an extremely vicious incident in the eyes of the Goguryeo people, and the helplessness in the hearts of the rest of the states!

In the entire Yingbin Garden, there are more than 80 envoys, nearly 1,000 people, large and small. The food and drink of these people alone can bring at least fifty percent of the turnover to the shops in Chang'an City every day.

In addition, these envoys are also to be consumed.

The big officials will naturally have the rewards of the Tang court, but what about the small officials, they also want to bring back the precious goods of the Tang Dynasty for their families. Bring a silk cotton to your family, or Chang'an's tea, or have some Chang'an specialties.

The fact that the Baekje people helped the Goguryeo people buy rice was a very small matter, but it caused a mess in Chang'an City. But whoever comes out of the Welcome Garden can't buy anything. Unless, you can prove that you have nothing to do with the Goguryeos.

"Silla, declare war on Goguryeo!" A small official stood at the gate of Yingbin Garden, shouting in Chinese, and then found a wooden board with the words Silla declaring war on Goguryeo.

After the little official finished shouting, he shouted loudly: "We Silla people don't go out to buy, and if there are merchants who are willing to come to the door, you can see if we Silla people will help the Goguryeo people buy a grain of rice!" Buy a foot of cloth! ”

At that moment, the Goguryeo people came out to quarrel. It's messy, it's not just a messy word.

Honglu Temple Zhengqing had a heart attack, fainted on the spot, and took leave.

In the palace of Admiral Tiance, the slave workers from Goguryeo demanded that a Tang character be embroidered in a conspicuous position on the Goguryeo clothing they requested to show that they were from the Tang Goguryeo tribe. And not the Goguryeo.

Qinghe Cui's family, the head of the family's study.

Choi Junsu finally came back to his senses, and he could feel Li Yuanxing's determination to attack Goguryeo.

"Uncle, Yuxian!" Cui Yingying handed over another picture, which was a simple map. Its location is the location of the modern Tianjin Port in the later generations. Cui Yingying continued: "The first pier must have the ability to prevent wind and waves, and it can dock thousands of large ships, which His Highness wants!" It must be completed within half a year. ”

"Rest in peace, I don't know what will happen the morning after tomorrow?" Cui Junsu carefully put away the two pictures.

Yuxian County. There is a side branch of the Qinghe Cui clan. It is not difficult to add another side branch from the canal to the sea, where there are already several river estuaries to the sea, but it is necessary to choose a suitable one and use 10,000 laborers. It can be completed in three months. Dock arrival is not a big hassle.

It seems that the progress of the cement mill needs to be accelerated.

Originally to the ジュア of the cement. There are also changes.

Cui Junsu suddenly found out. It seems that there is not enough cement, if you have 100,000 catties, you will have a place where 100,000 catties can be used. You have 10 million catties, it seems that you can still use them up, you really have 10,000 catties, I'm afraid you want to build a very beautiful straight.

It's noon.

The whole Chang'an was agitated because of Li Yuanxing, but Li Yuanxing was holding a fishing rod and was leaning on a boulder while taking a nap, while enjoying the afternoon sun, the sun in the mountains was soft, warm and warm made people want to sleep beautifully, the fish had bitten away the food on the hook, but Li Yuanxing did not move.

"Your Highness is so elegant!" Xiao Yu sat next to the stone.

Li Yuanxing stretched out his hand to help the straw hat: "Has Xiao Lao figured it out?" ”

"The old man still thinks that the big state against the small state will either be appeased by virtue or thundered."

"Old Xiao can know that he is wrong!" Li Yuanxing asked.

Xiao Yu didn't speak, he read history, how he didn't know who Li Yuanxing was talking about. How do you not know what Li Yuanxing is referring to.

Li Yuanxing said: "This king is young, and some words may be too heavy, but the combination of rigidity and softness is the right way, and the success of water is what I pursue." Unless you have to do something, you will never force yourself. Reluctantly is to gamble, to bet on the fortune of the country. At present, the Tang Dynasty is not enough to conquer Goguryeo. ”

"I am towering ...... the Tang Dynasty"

"Xiao Lao!" Li Yuanxing interrupted Xiao Yu's words: "Xiao Lao can learn arithmetic? ”

"Although I dare not say that I am proficient, I know it!" Xiao Yu is still very polite to Li Yuanxing, at least he approves of what Li Yuanxing has done, but he doesn't accept the process of doing things.

Li Yuanxing sat up and first withdrew the fishing rod.

"From Chang'an to Jian'an, how does Xiao Lao think to transport grain?" Li Yuanxing asked something that seemed unrelated.

Xiao Yu didn't answer, although he knew arithmetic, he didn't understand this.

Li Yuanxing let out a long sigh: "The grain ship was transported by river, passed through Luoyang, and then went up to Youzhou against the current. It takes half a month, a boat can transport 200 stones, and there are seven shipwrights on each ship, and these seven people can eat one stone of grain in half a month. I'm crude, but that's probably how it should be! ”

Xiao Yu nodded, he recognized Li Yuanxing's algorithm.

"Coupled with the handling and transfer, the reduction of 200 stones in Youzhou is not much. But Youzhou and then to Jian'an, 1,200 miles. A carriage, plus two people, can transport five stones, this thousand two hundred miles, to say the least, it will take a month, then to Jian'an, there will only be three stones, people eat horses also have to eat. ”

Xiao Yu seemed to understand.

"Your Highness, how much did you consume the grain from Youzhou last time and then to Liaocheng and Jian'an?"

"In fact, to Youzhou, the consumption is about 10%. Who would say there were no accidents on the road. But when it comes to Jian'an, there are only four achievements, and if it is in winter, then it is good to have three achievements. The former Sui fought Liaodong, and the real defeat was in this logistics, without a strong logistics, a fart battle! ”

Li Yuanxing actually said a foul word, which surprised Xiao Yu.

"Twenty percent is consumed to Jian'an, and if this is not reached, this king will not start a war against Goguryeo. How many people died on the way to transport grain in the former Sui, and how many soldiers had no combat power because they couldn't eat, and went on an expedition to Goguryeo, from Chang'an to Goguryeo, a full 4,500 miles. ”

Xiao Yu understood, got up and saluted: "It's old and confused!" ”

"This time, we will definitely sign an armistice agreement with Goguryeo, and we will definitely not form an alliance. Our reason is that you put forward the conditions, and naturally you can only form an alliance if you promise it, otherwise, go to war! ”

Li Yuanxing was full of confidence, and he believed that there would be absolutely no problem for him to complete the first step of remote Goguryeo after eight months of preparation.

Goguryeo has to bite one bite at a time, swallowing it step by step.

"The old man is puzzled, what can His Highness do when he arranges for the old man to be here?"

Li Yuanxing handed the fishing rod to Xiao Yu: "It's actually very simple, calm your mind." Three months later, he secretly went to Liaodong. There are some things that Lao Cheng can't do well, and this king needs a person of high morality, such as Xiao Lao. Come to help this king stabilize Liaodong, because there are not only my Tang soldiers, but also the Yan and Khitan tribes. ”

"Got it!" Even if Xiao Yu agreed, the specific task would naturally be arranged when he set off.

Li Yuanxing left the fishing rod and went to the mining area by himself.

Du Ruhui didn't come here to accompany Xiao Yu, he came to check the accounts.

There is no civil official in charge here, the civil official is just doing things, and the real person in charge is Wu Bin, a person who seems to be a martial artist, but he is a very calm person, not to mention the cunning Du Pisces helping him.

In terms of the security of the guards, Sheko trained a team of archers of the Night Forest Arrows.

The arrows of the forest in the night are heard not by the eyes, but by the ears. According to the sound of the enemy's actions in the forest, this archery team was only 300 men, and the rest of the sword and shield soldiers were 1,500 people, but the mine area was well guarded.

"With one knife, the output can be increased again?" Du Ruhui looked at the account book and asked slowly.

Wu Bin shook his head: "No, unless you give another twenty steam engines and thirty thousand fire detonators." Once dug into the main ore vein, the daily output of silver ore is 100,000 catties. How can you make tens of thousands of taels of silver? ”

Du Ruhan smiled and shook his head.

"Du Gong?" Wu Bin gave a salute.

Du Ruhui waved his hand: "It's difficult, there are more than 400 applications for steam engines here, pumping water, and grinding noodles." Those quarries turned out to be a hundred, and the fire detonator Yaozhou side had reached the limit, not to mention that His Royal Highness was preparing to make a move on Liaodong, so the fire detonator naturally had to be saved. ”

"Give someone a chance to play!"

"Stay here with peace of mind, and give you ten more eighty horsepower steam engines and ten thousand fire detonators. Before the end of the month, it must reach a daily output of 100,000 catties of silver ore and 30,000 catties of copper ore. You take care of it, and I recommend you to go to Liaodong. In the past few days, ten reliable captains have been selected from the guards to be sent to you, and you have an idea who will take over you when the time comes! ”

Du Ruhui said that at this price, Wu Bin had to work hard.

However, according to the rules of the Qin Palace, smart people are in a hurry to work, and stupid people are constantly working overtime.

Wu Binxin said that he had reached his limit, and the lieutenants who could be sent here were at least talents who could read dozens of books, and the abilities of these people could be put to good use.

(Note that silver ore is associated with copper ore, not separately mined)

Is this mine managed properly?

Li Yuanxing knew very well that he could at least triple the efficiency, but he would not come over to command it in person. These people need to grow, and the ten lieutenants sent are all management studies and have also interned in the workshop. Li Yuanxing cares about safety first, and efficiency secondly.

That night, Li Yuanxing spent the night in the Qinling Mountains.

The agitation of Chang'an City has reached the extreme, because of the radical remarks of some writers, so that the Goguryeo envoys actually ran to the palace after dark to ask for an audience with the Tang Emperor.

He couldn't take it anymore.

Li Er, who was eating dinner, received a report, ate a piece of purple potato, and tasted another wine very satisfied: "This purple potato should really be exclusive to my royal family." Someone came, gave Goguryeo envoys, 100 red-skinned yellow potatoes, and a bucket of rice porridge, and told them that they were tired. ”

A hundred sweet potatoes, plus a bucket of rice porridge! (To be continued......)
