Li Yong and Li Er received the news of the suicide of the three peace messengers almost at the same time, Li Er was furious, such a good opportunity and clue was gone, can you not get angry, Tang Jian also told Li Er to return to his hometown again at his age, Li Er looked at Tang Jian kneeling below was almost full of gray hair, this is not that Tang Jian's age is really old, but that he has paid too much for this country, and it is caused by hard work, only a person in his forties, but a body in his sixties, Li Er can't bear such a loyal minister, It took good words to persuade Tang Jian to stay, and when Li Yong heard the news, he looked at Zheng Liwan sitting next to him without saying a word, Zheng Liwan gave him a peeled grape in his mouth and said.

"I know you're soft-hearted, but there are some things that still need to be done, don't worry, I've let people retrieve their bodies and they've been buried in the martyrs' cemetery."

"So what do you do next?"

Li Yong knew that there was no woman's opinion at this time, because he and Li Lizhen had a one-year appointment, Zheng Liwan continued to peel the grape skin for him and said.

"Chang'an's side can only be treated coldly first, and it is no longer suitable to send people in, but the three of them have sounded the alarm to the imperial court, as for the peace envoys to other countries, they have already set up a line with those nobles, and in the future, the goods of their line will be traded according to the passes they designated, and in the future, in addition to the caravan line, there will be another dark line, so that our goods can be dumped into these countries in larger quantities."

Li Yong also supports Zheng Liwan's iron-blooded wrist, after all, in this regard, she is obviously more talented than herself, so she lets it go.

"How's that cheap weaponry going?"

"I have placed an order for the military workshop according to your wishes, all of which are imitated according to the elimination system of the imperial army, and the quality is the worst craftsmanship, needless to say, it is not as good as our Xishan Army, and even the imperial court guards are not comparable, that is, it is a little better than those government soldiers, I believe those barbarians will be sought after."

"Okay, it's good for you to grasp this degree yourself, you can't go ahead of the imperial army as the bottom line, and you have set the price yourself, I believe you."

The two of them were feeding grapes in the living room, and the other was eating grapes and discussing how to be a weapon dealer, because Li Yong knew, but when was that dynasty, the most profitable thing was weapons and equipment, he had always wanted to do it before, but he was delayed by all kinds of things, and now many things are managed in an orderly manner by Zheng Liwan and Gaoda East and West, as long as their ideas are put forward, they can implement them well, so this matter is officially put on the agenda, Zheng Liwan used the guise of peace messengers to let them wander among the nobles of various countries, and in addition to the goods of Xishan, he did not intend to reveal to them that they could get the weapons and equipment of the Tang Dynasty, and the weapons and equipment of the Tang Dynasty at that time were the strongest in the world, because the imperial court was extremely strict, so they could only watch those with advanced weapons and equipment attack them, and now these peace messengers are like messengers sent by God, bringing them good news, and many nobles and tribes are very interested. Several messengers of peace had already sent messages back to their homes asking for some samples, and when the nobles and tribal leaders saw the "strong" armor and the "sharp" weapons, they all couldn't put it down.

"Honorable leader, this set of armor and weapons of the Tang Army is a gift from me to you, you can like it."

"Very good, messenger, you are the messenger of the tribe sent by heaven to save me, I like this gift very much, I don't know how many more weapons and equipment you have?"

"Chief, I don't have a lot of weapons and equipment like this, and you also know that Tang Guo has a very strict control over these things, so ......"

"Emissary, I know, but I urgently need a batch of these weapons and armor right now, and you know the situation of my tribe, and I hope you can help us."

"It's easy to say, I don't know how much you need for the chief?"

"A thousand sets, not much, I only need a thousand sets."

"Well, well, but the price might be ......"

"Don't worry, the price is easy to say, you open a price first."

"Chief, we are also friends, friends don't lie to friends, this armor is five hundred times, and the long knife is one hundred times, what do you think?"

When the tribal leader heard this price, his eyes widened, five hundred sets of armor, one hundred long knives, and one thousand sets would cost six hundred thousand, where did he have so much money, and the arrogant Wang Ba's aura just now instantly wilted.

"So expensive? Emissary, can you have less, I don't have so much money. ”

The peacemaker shook his head and said.

"Honorable chief, it's not that I don't give. Face, we are all friends, friends on the grassland will not lie to their friends, these things are made by me at the risk of losing my head, this price is also given to you, I don't give others money yet, as for the money, how much can you pay, and then it is okay to convert it into cattle and sheep gold and silver. ”

The tribal leader also believed it when he heard it, because smuggling weapons and equipment in the Tang Dynasty was a big crime, and he believed even more that if he didn't want it, then other tribes who wanted to annex him would definitely be willing to buy it, he gritted his teeth and agreed, such a situation happened in the Turkic, Xue Yantuo, Gaochang, Tuyuhun, and Tubo tribes, and after the military workshop in the valley received the order from the peace messenger, it went full speed to make those rags, yes, they were rags, these long knives and armor were not even looked down upon by the Tang army's government soldiers, But for those tribes who only hold rusty broken scimitars and don't even have leather armor, these are the heavenly soldier armor, but this price is not as sky-high as those peace envoys talked about, such a set of armor is only thirty times here, and the long knife is always money, so these arms dealers wearing the face of peace messengers are slashing at these grassland tribes with machetes, but those tribes are very happy to laugh and let them slaughter, just this order, let Li Yong make millions of yuan.

The tribes who got these Heavenly Soldiers and Divine Armor couldn't wait to launch a war against the surrounding tribes, and those tribes that did not buy from the peace messengers were beaten and had to leave the pastures they relied on to survive, and then those kind peace messengers found these tribes again, and began to tempt them like demons, many tribes did not have such a temptation, and bought weapons from them, so that the tribes in these countries began to have different degrees of civil strife, this is what Li Yong proposed, why are you fighting me? Because I have a weapon, and you have a weapon, don't I have one? The arms race will never end, and because you have it, I must have it.

"Khan, the Yabru tribe has annexed the Qingkoye tribe again, our army can't stop it, their weapons and equipment are better than ours, Khan, what now?"

"This group of damned hungry wolves, thinking that they have bought the weapons of the Tang Dynasty, dare to ignore the majesty, inform the army, destroy the damn Yabru tribe for me, and find the messenger of peace and bring him to me."

"Khan, this is?"

"Hmph, I've long seen that Ashina Simo's useless waste is not pleasing to the eye, and I thought that they surrendered to the Tang people and became the dogs of the Tang people, so they won't be afraid of us, I want to buy a lot of weapons and equipment for the Tang Army this time, and then it's time for us to annex Ashina Simo and them."

A big man with a beard on his face laughed, in the same way, those countries originally thought it was just a small-scale civil strife in the country, and they didn't care much at first, but then they found out that something was wrong, when those tribes attacked and annexed other tribes, they found that their weapons and equipment were better than their own army, and under several waves of suppression, they found that they couldn't beat people, and these kings and khans were in a hurry, and they sent large armies to suppress them, and also found those peace messengers who lobbied and sold weapons and equipment everywhere, Those tribes who take the weapons and equipment provided by the peacemaker, as if they have been blessed by heaven, even their own khans and the king's army are not spared, and if they dare to suppress it, they will fight against the suppression with their own advantages in armor and military advantages, which also makes those who have not bought the weapons of the peacekeeper eagerly look forward to them to hurry to themselves and sell them those heavenly soldiers and gods, the orders of the military workshop are increasing in batches than a batch of geometric numbers, why, when a tribe is beaten and can't stand it, the peacemaker will appear in front of them, With all kinds of preferential conditions, let them continue to buy weapons, so that they can successfully resist, the peacemaker instigated the tribes that were about to win, telling them that victory is in sight, and adding more weapons and equipment will win. Plus the big orders placed by the leaders of these countries are the big ones. Fu Yun, the self-contained king of Tuyuhun who was beaten by Li Yong's black army two years ago, found a peace messenger who was lobbying everywhere and took him to his tooth tent as a guest.

"Honorable messenger, I am very glad to have invited you to my tent at last."

"Your Majesty, I wonder why you invited me to your tent?"

The peace messenger sat down under Fu Yun, holding the glass wine glass of Xishan, drinking the first line of heaven in Xishan, and there was a Tuyuhun beauty waiting on both sides, this kind of treatment has long been accustomed to him, because he has been treated like this every tribe he goes, but for Tuyuhun's No. 1 person, he is still a little nervous, because he knows that this is a big order, if the negotiation is completed, how much commission will be paid, think about it is very happy.

"I'm not going around in circles with you anymore, it's like this, we know that you have Tang Jun's armor weapon in your hand, and I want to buy some from you, I don't know how much else the envoy has in his hand?"

When the messenger heard Fu Yun's words, his heart blossomed, but there was a very embarrassed expression on his face, and when he saw the embarrassed expression of the peace messenger, Fu Yun's heart chuckled, thinking that he wouldn't sell it to himself, right? Or is it already sold out?

"Your Majesty, this matter is indeed a bit difficult, because I only have five thousand sets in my hands, and I don't know how many you need?"

"Five thousand, five thousand, it's too little, I wonder if the envoy can find a way to make more? I'm probably going to ask for 10,000, no, 50,000 sets. ”

"Huh? So much? Even if I could, I wouldn't be able to deliver it once. ”

As soon as Fu Yun heard it, there was a play, and if you can't send it at one time, then send it in batches.

"Messenger, don't worry about this, as long as you have it, you send it in several batches, I won't embarrass you."

"Then please let me think about it, and give you an answer tomorrow?"
