Chapter 346: A Greater War
In the twentieth year of Yuanheng, spring, the first month.
Li Er died, and to be honest, Li Chong was very happy.
Because death, in his opinion, is not a kind of relief.
Whoever is like him will suffer in this world.
After that, the funeral was held, and when this heavy funeral was over, Li Chong had a good rest in front of the five Japanese girls.
Li Er's death...... It can only be said that Li Chong never shed a single tear from beginning to end.
But everybody knows.
The saddest person is probably him.
After all......
Based on the relationship between the two before their deaths.
Even Li Chengqian came over and told Li Chong not to be sad.
Saying......
It's you who died Aye, not me who died Aye.
You actually came to tell me not to be sad?
Afterwards......
Li Chong also considered whether to build a small palace near Li Er's Zhaoling.
Li Chong's idea was put forward by Li Tian in the court, and this time, no one in the court objected.
It's really weird.
Why didn't any courtiers stand up and say, the Emperor Taishang and the Queen Mother have just entered the ground, and you are building like this, and it is next to Zhaoling, aren't you afraid that it will affect the rest of the two?
Probably......
It's because they also understand the friendship between Li Chong and the Emperor.
Although they know that this should be opposed.
However, there is a saying that 'legal principles are nothing more than human feelings'.
That's pretty much what it means.
Although Li Chong is building such a large number of buildings, it is definitely not right!
But!
From a human point of view, they don't seem to be incomprehensible.
……
Li Er's death still has a great impact.
For example, these four monarchs all sent people to attend the funeral.
Even......
Even as far as Persia, they sent men.
Although......
By the time they arrived, the funeral would have already ended.
Of course!
The Tang Dynasty still left some Persian envoys to live in the Tang Dynasty.
It is actually enough for only these people to participate.
Like Li Zhi, he also came back in person.
It's this Li Xin, who has a backlash at first glance.
He didn't show up in person, but just sent a representative.
But......
It seems understandable.
After all......
Originally, Li Xin and Li Er were not very close, and Li Xin obviously had some fears.
This seems to have left a foreshadowing for Datang to regain Jiaozhi.
It is also a disadvantage of the sub-envelope system.
That is, Li Zhi is not dead yet, if Li Zhi is dead, it is estimated that this Liaodong ......
Of course!
Let's wait for Li Zhi to die first.
When the dust settles.
Next......
The world is as it should be, and it is still as it is.
Nothing has changed at all because of the death of the two.
In June of this year, Li Chong's side ......
We have already mastered how to make potash fertilizer in batches.
And......
Over the years, the five Japanese girls have eaten so much black technology, and they haven't found anything wrong.
On the contrary, this one is growing quite healthy.
At least, undressed, well-proportioned, fair and pink.
In other words, this potash fertilizer can be used.
There is one point, this railway has not yet been built to Shanzhou, if the people of Tuyuhun are allowed to use horses and carriages to carry them, the cost should still be quite high.
All I can say is......
Let's continue to speed up this railway.
Other than that......
In Shanzhou, because it is relatively close to the place where it is made, you can try it first, and use it locally if it is produced locally.
It just so happens that when you plant winter wheat this year, you can try it.
For the time being, the matter of fertilizer is still a secret.
knows, that is, Li Chong and Li Chengqian, if you say it to the outside world, you will directly say that this is fertilizer.
This year, winter.
The fleet sent by Li Zhi returned from the Americas again.
In order to better bring back the seeds of various crops and even gold from the Americas, it is obvious that on this second voyage, they also left some people behind to carry out local dots.
If it was said that it was only two years before it could go back and forth.
Then the third time, the fourth time......
As long as the timing is right, you should be able to go back and forth at least once a year.
It is estimated that hundreds of thousands of catties of crops and crop seeds can be brought back for Liao every year, as well as tens of thousands of catties of gold.
Of course!
There should still be silver in the Americas.
It's just that......
At present, there should not be that person to refine the production.
Besides, there is a Japanese country that is producing silver, and now the Liao country does not need to go so far from the Americas to deliberately refine and produce it, and then transport it back.
Although, this brings back a huge amount of gold, which is a good thing.
However......
If there is more of this gold every year, it seems that it will be difficult to spend it.
After all......
Not everyone has the ability to exchange gold for copper coins to use.
This bad money is okay in Liao, it can only be said that it is not as serious as Datang.
The current word......
Datang's bad money phenomenon is still obvious.
There are many people who secretly mint coins, add iron to copper, and add other metals.
Especially now, economic exchanges have become more frequent, which has further promoted the development of bad money.
】
But......
There is no way around it.
After all, with paper money, that kind of harm may be even greater.
All I can say is......
Li Chong has not yet made up his mind.
This year, when he came back from the Americas, Li Zhi's people also brought more and fresher gadgets back.
For example, peppers, for example, pineapples.
After receiving the chili peppers, Li Chong immediately made a few spicy roasted chicken wings, chicken legs, and roast whole sheep for Li Lizhi and them to eat.
At first, several people couldn't help but drink water hurriedly.
But when you get used to it......
Not to mention, the chicken wings and drumsticks and roasted whole lamb are really delicious.
Li Chong also told them.
This is not a hundred times better than pepper.
Compared to pepper, this stuff is really good, but ......
It's not because Li Chong also added sugar to it.
The combination of sugar and pepper seems to go a better match than the combination of sugar and pepper.
Of course!
You can't eat too much of this thing, if you eat too much, you may have hemorrhoids.
It's a pity that Li Er has no mouth.
And then the words of the Western Regions.
Obviously, it's not very stable.
After the Tang Dynasty and the Turkic soldiers withdrew, uprisings of varying degrees broke out in various parts of the cannibal region.
And the Persian side can only be busy counterinsurgent.
Then the Eastern Turks and the Western Turks also broke out in the northern part of the Caspian Sea at this time, and confrontation broke out to varying degrees.
Even......
The Western Turks felt that the Tang Dynasty had planted other forces behind their backs.
This Li Huanwen was almost not taken hostage by the Western Turks over there.
In the end, it was a deputy general named Wang Fangyi from the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate who made a move, which stopped.
However, it is conceivable that this is only a temporary subsidence, and in the future, a bigger war should be inevitable.
