Finally enlightened, don't shout and kill all day long, people don't trade with you, it's not too late for you to fight people again, and at this stage, you can't send troops overseas on a large scale, Li Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"Of course, the saint still has to build ships, build military ships and cannons, after all, there must be some people who don't want to pay taxes, and once the maritime trade rises, there will inevitably be pirates who rob merchant ships."

This is said to Li Er's heart, it is necessary for the builder to set up a cannon, those big families definitely don't want to pay taxes, set up cannons to bombard them, and pirates? Who else dares to rob? Are you looking for excitement? However, his sailor has been abolished, and it is difficult to re-establish it! Li Er asked.

"Is there really that much silver in the Wa Kingdom? The country of Wa is not far from Datang, right? Didn't Cheng go to the country of Wa easily? ”

Still don't give up! But how many more people are there in your waterbreaker? Li Yong asked.

"Sage, has the dream come true?"

Dream? Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, this sentence is like a basin of cold water poured on Li Er's head, Li Er couldn't help but feel stunned when he heard it, even Goguryeo, which was close at hand, had not yet been defeated! is still greedy for the Japanese country far overseas, so Li Ersi still thinks that Li Yong's idea is reliable, so let's set up a city to collect taxes! Li Yong said in a deep voice.

"However, it is also necessary to rebuild the water division! It is more convenient to go to Goguryeo by sea than by land. ”

Hearing these words in Li Er's ears was like an enlightenment, he said suddenly.

"That's right! That's right! You're so right! The sailor must be rebuilt! ”

You can transport grain and grass with a water division, and you can contain the forces of Goguryeo with a water division, Li Yong said with a smile.

"There are also white stacked flowers, Goguryeo is too cold, if there are white stacked flowers, then there is no need to be afraid of the cold winter."

The more Li Er listened, the more excited he became, a big problem in the expedition to Goguryeo was that it was too cold in winter, and it was too difficult to transport grain and grass, now that I think about it, it seems that most of the problems have been easily solved by Li Yong, and Li Yong has also come up with a sharp weapon to attack the city, Li Er suddenly felt that even if he sent troops to Goguryeo now, he had a great chance of winning, no, he had to be stable, otherwise he would be choked by the officials in the court, even so Li Er was still agitated in his heart, and when he laid down Goguryeo, he would open up overseas while running the Western Regions, which was simply beautiful.

"There is still a long way to go!"

Li Er said leisurely, but Li Yong was very disdainful of Li Er's words, you have a fart to do, I feel a long way to go as a traverser, and my heart was surging for a while, Li Er's eyes were on these dozens of cars of spices, and he coughed dryly and said.

"Li Yong! This woman just likes these fragrant things, even the queen is no exception. ”

For Li Er, Li Yong already knows a lot, it's nothing more than gluttonous spices, isn't it just a few carts of firewood? Li Yong said with a smile.

"Since the queen likes it, let's pull a few carts back!"

Li Er listened to the ironing in his heart, nodded and said.

"Okay, you kid has filial piety."

"Let's pull four carts first!"

Li Er immediately beckoned the guards to drive, Empress Changsun and Li Lizhi were holding hands and talking, and then she looked up and saw the guards going to pull the carriage, although she had a premonition, but she still couldn't help blushing a little, and what made her blush even more was that the guards actually pulled four carriages, which was too much, right?

"Saints, isn't it too much? There are still a lot of spices in the palace! ”

Empress Eldest Sun asked with a little blush, and Li Er said with a wave of his hand.

"Is that more? Pull the four-horse carriage first! ”

Pull the four-horse carriage first? Empress Changsun's face was completely red, why didn't she notice that the emperor's face was so thick?

Li Lizhi also smiled politely.

"Queen Mother, there are many nobles in the palace, and there are all places where spices are used, and there are spice islands overseas, and spices will be worthless in two years."

Li Yong, as a son-in-law, of course flattered his mother-in-law, he smiled.

"Hey, it's just firewood for the fire."

Li Li said with a smile.

"Queen Mother, Lang Jun also said that spices can be made into perfume! Wait and test it to see if you can make a perfume. ”

In fact, Li Yong originally planned to send a few cars to the palace, but it was his mother-in-law, and he had to be filial to those who should be honored, and in a blink of an eye, there were eight cars missing, Li Lizhi suddenly felt a little empty again, and pouted.

"Lang Jun, there are only thirty-four cars left!"

What do you mean that there are only thirty-four cars left? Is thirty-four cars less? Li Yong said with a smile.

"Don't talk about thirty-four cars, even three cars are enough for you for several years, let's divide it tomorrow, relatives and friends will send a bag of spices, oh, send a bag to Yingguo Mansion too."

Wu Cao next to him said repeatedly.

"Why do you give it to Wu Yuanqing? Don't give it to him! I don't give it to him if I keep the smoked dog! ”

Li Li said with a smile.

"It's not for Wu Yuanqing, it's for the old lady."

Wu Cao opened her mouth and didn't say anything after hearing this, in fact, she knew in her heart that there were not many spices that fell into the hands of her mother in the end to Ying Guogong's mansion, it was better for her to send them to her mother in private, but she also knew that it would make her mother better, if it was before, then she would not give it to Ying Guogong if she was hard-hearted, but now her attitude has eased, because her heart has gradually been influenced by Li Yong, and more importantly, Wu Yuanqing is really good to her mother and sister now, whether it is because of Li Yong's relationship or really changing her mind, She wants her mother to live better, Wu Cao's heart is very grateful, because a sack of spices is dozens of hundreds of catties, and now the down-and-out Yingguo Mansion is really reluctant to buy it, this is to give her face, just when Li Lizhi took the maid and the maid to place the spices, the news of dozens of cars of spices appearing in Chang'an has spread far and wide, and this news has also completely caused a sensation in Chang'an, because spices have been very precious since ancient times, and the price is more expensive than gold, the reason why they are precious is because they are scarce, who has seen dozens of cars of spices? Don't say I've seen it, I've never heard of it, so when I heard that Huatinghou went to sea and brought back dozens of trucks of spices, the people of Chang'an were immediately stunned, unbelievable, and discussed, some people believed, some people didn't believe it, and the people who didn't believe it spit on the preciousness of spices, and the people who believed in it took the trouble to count the magic of Huatinghou, and the most unbelievable thing was the merchants in the East Market, dozens of cars of spices? What's the trouble? They haven't seen dozens of truckloads of spices in the spice business for so many years, and Huatinghou has pulled back dozens of truckloads of spices twice? Are you a spice or a cabbage on the side of the road? It can't be too outrageous, right? A few carts of spices are still possible, but even a few carts of spices are a lot of wealth, even if the Huating Hou Mansion can be used, how can a few carts of spices have to be used for decades, right? So they are all thinking, I don't know what Hua Tinghou thinks, I don't know if Hua Tinghou will sell two carts of spices, they are very much looking forward to it, but they think it is unlikely, because Huating Hou is a huge rich man in Chang'an, how can he sell two carts of spices? Most of the people in Chang'an will be skeptical when they hear it, but some people are convinced, Li Chongyi and others were stunned when they heard it, dozens of cars of spices? What a spectacle! They are involved in the family's fleet business, the business does not know this, plus Li Xiaogong They break up the spices every time and sell them to various places, so it is safe, in Li Chongyi's opinion, this is a spectacle They suddenly ran down from the sea, land and air restaurant, jumped on the horse and then went straight to Lijiazhuang, dozens of cars of spices, you must go to see the long insight, Li Jiazhuang is still hotly discussed, Li Chongyi They ran into the house and smelled a strong smell of spices, following the smell of spices, they went straight to the West Courtyard, and then they saw a very spectacular scene, The ground is full of spices, a large number of maids and women are regrouping spices, Li Chongyi and they have opened their mouths widely, although they have already believed it in their hearts, but they are still shocked to see this scene, this scene is too extravagant!

"Hey, why did you guys get here?"

Li Yong asked.

"We heard that your family hauled dozens of carts of spices, so we came over to see it."

Li Chongyi said with an excited face, and Zhang Zhilong also shouted.

"We were drinking in your restaurant, and we heard all the people around us talking about it, saying that your family had pulled dozens of truckloads of spices, and everyone was crazy and couldn't believe it! Li Yong, where did you get so many spices? ”

As soon as Li Yong heard it, he knew that his family hadn't told them about them going to sea with himself, and Li Yong explained with a smile.

"Didn't Cheng Chusi and Yu Chi Baolin go to explore the Japanese Kingdom, but when they came back, they encountered a hurricane and were blown to a small island, which was full of spices, so they casually picked up a boatload of spices and brought them back."

Sluggish, Li Chongyi and the others were all sluggish, blown to the island by a hurricane, and then it was all spices? Just pick up a boat? I always hear Li Yong say that overseas is full of wealth, and they have never had an intuitive impression, but now they finally have it. It's like picking up money! This doesn't even need any nautical charts, just put the ship out to sea and drift with the wind!

"Li Yong, when do you plan to go to sea again?"

Li Chongyi: All of them had bright eyes.

"Out to sea? Let's talk about it! ”

Li Yong replied lightly.

"Don't, let's go to sea to pick up spices! If you don't pick it up, you don't pick it up! ”

Li Chongyi and the others tried their best to instigate Li Yong, but Li Yong had no good temperament.

"Do you have a boat?"

"It's not easy to get a boat? Just get a few grain ships! ”

Li Chongyi shouted innocently, and Li Yong said even more speechlessly when he heard it.

"That's not a sea ship, it's different, it's not so easy to build a sea ship, especially the production of the keel takes a long time, and the keel is hard to find!"

Li Chongyi and they immediately wilted when they heard this, since Li Yong said so, it must be the case, Li Yong pointed to the spices over there and smiled.

"Since they're all here, let's carry a sack for each person!"

A sack of spices is at least dozens of catties or hundreds of catties, which is not a small amount, Li Chongyi and they waved their hands again and again.

"We came today to see the excitement and have a long experience, but we are not here to ask for spices, a sack of spices is too valuable."

In fact, these spices were specially placed, and they were originally intended to be used as gifts, Li Yong said with a smile.

"You really don't want it?"

Li Chongyi and they twisted.

"We, I really don't!"

Li Yong shrugged slightly.

"Alright then, I'll keep the fire myself."

What's that? Burner? Spice fire? It's just a violent thing, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning? As your brother-in-law, how can you sit back and watch Li Yong being struck by lightning? How can you watch these precious spices being burned as firewood? So Li Chongyi and the others stepped forward with an arrow, and a very sharp sack of spices was carried on their shoulders, and then they raised their eyes to look at the spices in this yard, and suddenly felt that even if Li Yong burned it as firewood, it would have to be burned for a long time!

"Li Yong, then we really carried it away?"

Li Chongyi asked.

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Carry it away, these were originally put together to be sent to your family, you can carry them directly, and it will save me the effort to send them."

Li Chongyi and the others suddenly became calm when they heard this, they thought that Li Yong saw them coming, thought that they were here to ask for spices, it turned out that Li Yong had already prepared! Li Chongyi and others said excitedly.

"Okay, then we're welcome!"

"Alright, alright, take it back quickly!"

Li Yong said with a smile, Li Yong is very happy and generous, in fact, the relationship is like this, so it will get deeper and deeper, just like Li Er pulled a four-horse carriage of spices, but since Li Yong and Li Lizhen got married, even if Li Yong moved to Lijiazhuang, the tributes in the palace were also pulled to Lijiazhuang by carriage, like the palace of Hejian County. Li Yong's share is indispensable, Li Chongyi and they ran away with a sack, although the sack is a hundred pounds small, but they are carrying it like flying, outside the door Li Chongyi and their guards saw Li Chongyi and they ran out with a sack, they were all dumbfounded, the prince of the dignified county and the prince, why did one person carry a sack? That's too inconsistent, isn't it? Aren't you afraid that the sack will stain your clothes? Also, the dignified Huating Hou Mansion, what is it that is actually packed in a sack? complained in their hearts, and they hurriedly greeted them.

"Shizi, what is this?"

While asking them and about to take it, Li Chongyi and the others waved their hands and said.

"Go, go, I'll carry it myself, it's all spices, it's precious!"

Spices? A sack of spices? The guards were stunned again, they had also heard that Huating Hou had pulled dozens of carts of spices back, but that was spice! Precious spices! How can it be packed in a sack? How can you treat spices like that? The guards were powerless to complain, it was unbelievable, but they had to believe it, because they had already smelled the smell of spices through the sack, it was really a sack of spices, and after complaining about the sack in their hearts, they were shocked by the generosity of Huating Hou again, a sack of spices! At least dozens or even hundreds of catties! How much is it worth! Many spice shops in Chang'an City do not have a sack of spices, of course, people's spices will not be packed in sacks, but with delicate porcelain boxes, delicate wooden boxes, anyway, they will not use sacks, knowing that it is a sack of spices, the guards suddenly retreated silently, this sack of spices is too valuable, even if they are allowed to carry it, they don't dare! Look at this sack is about to burst, this is so bumpy on the horse, what if the sack is broken?
