Follow-up to the end of Chapter 160

His hero, my enemy, my hero, his enemy.

Between countries and between nations, only strength is believed, and there is no emotion.

As the saying goes, the murmur of the strong is deafening, and the anger of the weak is meaningless.

Li Kuan, who has crossed over, is always grateful that he was born in Datang.

Li Kuan, who stepped on the grassland again, obviously felt the change in status, and the scattered Turkic people he met on the way to Dingxiang showed fearful eyes when they saw Li Kuan's Tang aristocratic costumes.

Li Kuan still remembers the scene when he presided over the grassland market before, when the Turks looked down on the Tang Dynasty and wanted to beat them at every turn, and opened their mouths to ridicule wantonly.

Now, with Li Jing leading his troops to defeat Dingxiang and capture Jieli alive, the pride of the Turks has been shattered, and after the pride of the Tang Dynasty has been established, the status of the Tang people has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Li Kuan thinks this change is very good, and he likes it very much.

The steppe was taken, the Turkic Empire fell, a large number of materials prepared by Li Kuan and Yu Zhining were transported into the steppe, and the Turkic people were gathered together to listen to the speeches of the Tang people.

After the end of the war to destroy the Turks, Li Shimin severely reprimanded Li Jing for his disobedience and sabotage of the peace talks, and then rumors of Li Jing's title and position spread in Chang'an City.

Li Jing will become the second military general to become a civilian boss in the Tang Dynasty after Li Shimin.

Along with these things, there were also officials at all levels sent by Li Shimin to the grassland, and they were all people who were responsible for managing the grassland.

The reason why Li Kuan followed the team transporting materials to the grassland this time was very simple, that is, to dig up treasures.

Originally, in the intermarket of the Prairie Bank, Li Kuo led the craftsmen to the location of the vault.

"Dig it."

"All the treasures are under the vault."

Li Kuan said with a smile as he stood in the middle of the large pit that had been dug by the Turks.

The soldiers who followed listened to Li Kuan's words and dug one after another.

Sure enough, after digging for a long time, I finally dug up the bottom treasure spot.

Li Kuan's vault was built with three floors, the top one was on the surface, and the second layer was used for deception.

Li Kuan knew that his transport team was being monitored, and the fact that he did not take the gold and silver away would definitely be guessed.

And those who can't find other treasure places will inevitably dig deeper.

Dig to the second layer, and they'll probably boast about being smart.

But at this time, it is often not necessary to continue digging, after all, no one can guess that Li Kuan also made a third layer.

When the third layer was dug out, the Tang generals who had invested in the grassland bank became excited, this was their wealth.

"If the generals didn't kill the depositors, we wouldn't be able to happily divide the money now, so the generals are the real pillars."

At the celebration banquet, Li Kuan praised the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty headed by Li Jing.

When digging for treasures, Li Jing had already told Li Kuan that all the Turkic nobles who had deposited money before, in the name of Jieli, had been killed.

Now they can already happily divide the money.

For this decisive way of doing things, Li Kuan resolutely praised it.

If you don't get rid of these Turkic nobles, after the steppe is incorporated into the ruling area, these people who originally saved money will have to find them sooner or later.

Therefore, while at the banquet, Li Kuan asked another question.

"What should the depositors of the Western Turks, the Western Regions, the Hui and other places do?"

"Have you thought about it, the generals?"

Li Jing was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Why do you think Zhang Shigui killed the Xue Yantuo, Hui Hui, and Western Turkic tribes?" ”

Li Kuan and Li Jing laughed, so it was, worthy of Li Jing, who deeply understood the importance of settling accounts.

As for the Western Regions, neither of them mentioned it, anyway, it would not be able to be included in their Tang rule for a while, as long as it was not the existence of the Tang Dynasty, they could not rely on the laws of the Tang Dynasty to negotiate and talk with their group of people.

If you want to talk to them, at least you have to be a Chinese person.

Replacing wine with water, Li Kuan saluted Li Jing and the others, and said with a smile: "Then we need to put the responsibility of the grassland bank on Jieli and Princess Yicheng." ”

"At that time, I still had a backup for today's conversation with Zhizhi Sili, and Zhizhi Sili can testify that Jieli and Princess Yicheng are the spokespersons and responsible persons."

"At the same time, the grassland bank can also do non-performing assets, bankruptcy property disposal, and property confiscation."

Li Kuan smiled and said the follow-up.

Li Jing and the others didn't care about these operations, they had already divided the treasures dug up by Li Kuan equally, and divided them evenly according to the earliest investment share.

Everyone had enough wealth, more than plunder.

The generals who have plundered know that no matter how they rob, they have to divide it equally with the people below.

Now it's okay, their generals have got a lot of wealth, and let the subordinates grab the rest, and this time their generals won't share the spoils, as long as the subordinates hand over what should be handed over to the state.

This is also the reason why Li Jing and other generals are willing to accompany Li Kuan to drink, this time after the fight, it is really cool.

Everyone got a lot.

Li Shimin was also very satisfied, and the large amount of wealth transported back to Chang'an from the grassland directly filled the treasury, which made Datang ruthlessly replenish his blood.

At the same time, it also pulled down the aristocratic prices of the Tang Dynasty.

Yes, it's aristocratic prices.

Prices have always been divided into two kinds, one is called aristocratic prices, that is, the prices of luxury jewelry, and the other is called civilian prices.

In the Central Plains, everyone never turns everything into luxury, and everyone chooses to classify such things into two categories: civilians and luxury.

A large amount of wealth poured into the treasury of the Tang Dynasty, and the first thing Li Shimin did was to imitate Li Kuan's situation in Chunzhou, build various projects, and distribute money to the people in the form of subsidies, so that the people could make a lot of money.

Then they sold some batches of civilian goods that had been backlogged in the government treasury of various localities to the people.

After turning around like this, part of the money was recovered, some of the backlog of civilian supplies was consumed, and Datang also obtained the finished product.

Water conservancy, roads, etc., many things Li Shimin wanted to do, but he never did.

Now that I have money, it's natural to do it.

Theoretically, the only thing that is unlucky is the grassland.

Li Kuan looked at the wealth that his family had finally shared, and he was satisfied, and he had money to invest in new research.

His personal research institute can invest more research funds.

The happiest thing for Li Kuan is that he doesn't have to go back to Chang'an to report on his work, Li Shimin has ordered him to continue to stay in the grassland, and Dingxiang will be his office in the future.

His boss hasn't changed, it's still Yu Zhining.

At this time, Li Kuan, who was a year older, didn't think there was anything about it.

It's good to stay in the grassland, there are many thieves in Chang'an City, and it is dangerous, and the most important thing is that there are eight less kings in the depth, and there are many crocodiles and sharks.

Just like now, there are already rumors in Chang'an City that Li Tainai is the reincarnation of an immortal, and he can already gather a group of literati to repair books at a young age.

Thinking about the few poems written by Li Tai, Li Kuan couldn't help but want to complain: "Please, you accept your fate, the Tang Dynasty did not have a literati who could handle it during the Zhenguan period, and what was popular in this era was full of martial virtues." ”

"The literati romance of the Tang Dynasty began gradually from the Gaozong Dynasty, and became completely brilliant by the time of Xuanzong."

"And the reincarnation of the immortal, it should be Li Taibai, as soon as that little wine is drunk, it is the existence of half of the Tang Dynasty when he opens his mouth."
