One billion Datang coins, there are still several families here that can come up with, not to mention that this money does not need to be delivered at once, only 20% needs to be paid first, and it will be raised slowly in the next three years.

But it still can't be denied that this is a big gamble.

After all, thousands of miles away I haven't seen a place that I have never seen, and I have to pay so much money for real money.

Not everyone has that kind of courage.

The scene was silent for a while, and they all looked at Cui Zhongqing.

Then an elder of the Li family sighed and said, "The third elder of the Cui family, if you have courage, let's give up!" ”

Everyone can see that there are many places outside the land of this auction, and the Tang Dynasty Government should still sell them in the future.

Although the price may be higher in the future, it is less risky because they can see a lot of things from the people who bought the land this time.

"Deal, one billion Tang coins!" Tang Ping made a direct decision.

This five pieces of land were sold for a total of more than 2 billion yuan, and the Datang government government could receive 200 million Datang coins just by collecting the deposit, plus the amount of donations raised by the people recently.

It can be said that the pressure on military spending is almost gone.

Looking at the Tang Dynasty merchants with different expressions below, some of them were photographed and some of them were not, Tang Ping gave them another reassurance.

"You should know that I have a pickup truck and a nanny car, and these two cars use not a steam engine but a gasoline engine. This gasoline is made from petroleum. ”

"In the future, the development direction of Datang is that all vehicles will slowly turn into gasoline engines and give up steam engines, so I don't think you have to worry about the prospect of oil."

Now Datang's car-making industry is also developed, in addition to the government, many wealthy businessmen and families have more or less bought a few steam engine cars.

Compared with Tang Ping's pickup truck, the gap can be said to be clear at a glance.

Listening to Tang Ping's words, a few people who photographed the plot were happy.

Now there are a lot of steam engine cars, and there will only be more and more in the future, and all these vehicles will be replaced by gasoline cars, then the consumption of gasoline will increase significantly.

In the same way, there are also those huge steam engine warships and merchant ships are large consumers of energy.

They also know that some inside information is that Datang has been developing generators that use these fuels to generate electricity.

If you can generate electricity as long as it can be burned, then so can oil.

Tang Ping showed them the prospect of the oil industry, although there is still nothing, but at least the future is very bright.

After signing contracts with several wealthy merchants, they will hand over the deposit to the Datang Mansion within a week, otherwise it will be regarded as giving up the auction, and it will even affect their qualifications to participate in various auctions of the Datang Mansion in the future.

So these wealthy businessmen all quit one after another and went home to raise funds.

Tang Ping returned to the palace with the contract and map, and handed over everything to Li Shimin.

"All sold?" Li Shimin asked in disbelief.

He still doesn't know enough about businessmen.

Businessmen pursue profits, as long as there is a 20% possibility of making a profit, there are many people who are willing to gamble, not to mention that this time in their opinion the profit may be more than 20%, and the profit margin is even higher and scary.

The only thing is that the cycle will be relatively long, and they don't know when Tang Ping's gasoline engine will start to be popularized.

This is also the reason why many people do not continue to increase the price, which is completely to use their own liquidity to bet on a future, and everyone has a psychological price point for this future in their hearts.

"Sold, and more than originally planned." Tang Ping gave all the contracts to Li Shimin.

At the beginning, he planned that five pieces of land could be sold for more than 1.5 billion, but he didn't expect that the psychological price of these Tang wealthy businessmen was higher than he imagined.

Li Shimin opened a few contracts and counted them, and there were nearly two billion Tang coins.

As mentioned earlier, the current annual tax revenue of Datang plus some fees paid by the subject countries adds up to just over 6 billion Datang coins.

Just a few pieces of land were sold for one-third of Datang's tax revenue a year, how could he not be shocked.

"This thing...... So profitable? Li Shimin looked at Tang Ping suspiciously, and then looked at the green non-sale area: "If you want to calculate it like this, how much can my piece be worth?" ”

Tang Ping shook his head: "I can't figure it out, if it is really developed, with our current level of science and technology and energy consumption, the oil in it will be enough for hundreds of years, so in the future, as long as the Tang royal family can grasp the control of this area, then it will feel that there is no need to worry economically." ”

Li Shimin's eyes were burning

Looking at those places, although this place does not belong to Datang now, he believes that it will be soon.

"Someone, file and put away these contracts, and then ask the military department, how is the expeditionary force assembled? Do they still want me to teach the truth of the speed of soldiers? ”

Li Shimin couldn't wait to be crushed all the way directly, so he hammered to his hometown in the Arab Empire, and then took all those lands in his arms.

The current Tang Dynasty can be said to be the whole country is united in preparing to attack Arabia.

Because of the need for war, the preparation of materials made many workshops start to rush to work, and the income of the people increased.

And then the merchants, in addition to making a fortune in such a transaction, are also waiting to make a fortune from the war.

There were also soldiers waiting to go on expeditions to the Arab Empire to earn military merits.

All the strata of the Tang Dynasty's Shinong, industry and commerce seem to be able to profit from this expedition, how can they not support it?

Under such circumstances, the entire Datang began to rotate rapidly.

The forces of the entire Datang began to gather towards the coastal areas.

Some of them are farther away from the nearest river wharf, and then sent by troop carriers to the sea in batches.

In the entire East China Sea area between the mouth of the Yangtze River and the mouth of the Yellow River, a large number of warships and civilian ships were assembled.

Among them, there were those who transported troops, those who carried food and supplies, and those who went directly to participate in the battle.

Datang took out all the best weapons, except for tanks, hot air balloons, airships, firearms, and artillery.

There were also light guns and locomotives that were built in a hurry.

At that time, such a light self-propelled artillery position would become the most critical weapon against the heavy cavalry of the Arab Empire.

Datang can see all kinds of slogans hanging everywhere.

"One person goes on an expedition, and the whole family is glorious!"

"This battle will be won!"

"Down with the Arab Empire!"

At this time, those vassal countries were all in a cold sweat, and now they can see how terrifying the Tang Dynasty is that they are trying their best to fight.

And then in my heart, silently expressed condolences to the distant Arab Empire.

Ping Guogong was right.

"Whoever offends me Datang, you wait for me, Lao Tzu will come to get you in a few days!"

He's really going!
