After thinking about it for a while, Li Kuan still didn't understand why Li Shimin had the confidence to come up with enough materials to buy the things left by the family.

That's right, it's not money, it's materials.

For the families who built the feudal country, what they needed was never copper money, but enough materials.

Winter clothing, food, weapons and armor, vegetable seeds, various technologies that can help survive, etc.

What the family really needs to build a feudal country is these things, not copper coins.

What is the use of copper coins, you can only buy things in Datang, and even if you go to the Western Regions, gold and silver are much more useful than copper coins.

And for the families who went out to build a feudal country, why did they buy things when they came out of the Tang Dynasty?

The enemy is my granary, and the enemy is my granary.

This phrase does not work better than anything.

For the family, Li Shimin exchanged the copper coins given to them for firearms is the best.

They rushed out directly with tens of thousands of troops, and made a sudden assault on the countries of the Western Regions, and then they had everything, how cool.

"The world is very big, I hope they can go to Central Asia to kill Sassanid Persia after they leave the Western Regions, and I hope they can go to Eastern Europe, defeat those barbarians, and occupy the vast land of the Eastern European Plain."

Li Kuan muttered alone.

After working hard for the family in his heart, Li Kuan decided that the core technology of some upstream and downstream industries would not be given to them.

Moreover, he wanted to project some of the properties under the name of the royal investment bank to the Western Regions, and at the same time, he wanted to trade with Sassanid Persia.

It is worth mentioning that Sassanid Persia at this time was still alive and well.

Li Kuan's idea was very simple, to incorporate the goods from those places into the industrial chain of the Royal Investment Bank, so as to form a business empire, as one of the pliers techniques after the future family went out, and to limit it economically.

"Forget it, let's get the money bank out first."

"Nothing else matters, what matters is the money."

"The large transaction between the money banks is still good, which is conducive to the development of business, and the only pity is that the wave of grassland bank has collapsed my character."

Li Kuan thought of the wave of Prairie Bank, and he regretted it a little bit.

He felt that the biggest obstacle to making money now was here, and his character had collapsed.

Especially in Datang, many people know that he is the manipulator behind the grassland bank.

Now there is a lot of vigilance about the banking system.

I'm afraid that the concept of money bank will be suppressed, and no one will cooperate.

Li Kuan had a little headache, and then decided not to think about this problem anymore, but to think about the present.

Li Kuan scratched through his recent work and found that he had nothing to do.

In the whole Dingxiang, he became the most idle person.

Li Kuan was a little stunned by this result, and he didn't expect this result at all.

In the spring of the fifth year of Zhenguan, Li Kuan sat in his home and found that he had nothing to do.

That's great news.

For this situation, Li Kuan chose to clap his hands and praise, and have fun for a few days first.

Let's go to the grassland.

Li Kuan made this decision.

The next day, before he could execute, Zhang Gongjin came.

Li Kuan was not very familiar with this general, who had been staying in Dingxiang since the end of the Turkic War.

The two have always maintained a distance, both for fear that the other party will pollute themselves.

Therefore, Li Kuan was very puzzled by this sudden general.

The two of them are really not familiar with each other.

"Hou Junji is coming to the grassland, and I am about to be transferred out of the grassland and go to Chang'an."

"Someone sent me a message, hoping that I could talk to you so that you can be mentally prepared."

Zhang Gongjin simply and neatly stated the reason for his arrival.

Hearing Hou Junji's name, Li Kuan's mood was really bad.

This master is very capable of fighting in history, and he was the one who destroyed Gaochang.

But this lord, he supported Li Chengqian in history, and his son-in-law was called Helan Chushi, who was Li Chengqian's guard in the East Palace.

Of course, the funny thing is that the rebellion of Li Chengqian and Hou Junji in history was also reported by Helan Chushi, the mediator of the two.

Hearing Hou Junji's arrival, Li Kuan was really a little uncomfortable, he was afraid that this master would come to him for Li Chengqian.

Although he was in a bad mood, Li Kuan still thanked Zhang Gongjin very solemnly, no matter what the reason was, people came over to tell him the news, that is, kindness, and he should thank him.

"Does the King of Chu have anything I need to bring back to Chang'an?"

After Zhang Gongjin accepted Li Kuan's thanks, he turned to ask about other things.

After hesitating, Li Kuan slowly spoke: "I hope General Zhang can help me bring some clothes back." ”

Bring clothes back?

Zhang Gongjin was puzzled, what could I bring with this thing.

Li Kuan smiled and said gently:

"I hope you can help me give these clothes to Your Majesty, it is the warm and cold season of spring, and these clothes can play a good role in keeping out the cold."

There is filial piety.

Zhang Gongjin said secretly in his heart, and then decisively agreed.

Zhang Gongjin has always been a good person and likes to do good deeds.

Otherwise, his son would not have been able to get a large number of his father's connections after his untimely death.

In the rest of his life, Li Kuan exercised every day, watched horse racing and so on.

It is worth mentioning that he wanted to make football out before, but because there were too many families in Dingxiang City who wanted to go out, everyone was not in the mood for entertainment and could not attract large bets, so it turned out to be gone.

"Horse racing and betting, these are the two best ways to make money, but I can't get it now, it's a pity."

Li Kuan is also an uncomfortable group.

Hou Junji came faster than Li Kuan thought, and this lord rushed directly with hundreds of light cavalry.

Yu Zhining, Li Kuan and Zhang Gongjin invited him to a meal together to pick up the wind and wash the dust for him.

At the banquet, Hou Junji talked and laughed and was gentle and elegant, not at all like a little hooligan and uneducated.

If he hadn't read history and knew some of the circumstances, Li Kuan would have felt that this was a funny and elegant general.

The day after the banquet, Hou Junji quickly handed over to Zhang Gongjin, and then Zhang Gongjin left quickly.

After Zhang Gongjin left, Hou Junji came to visit Li Kuan.

This visit made Li Kuan directly confused.

We don't know each other well, why do you want to visit me directly, this is more or less unreasonable.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, I heard that you have always liked to be a matchmaker, I wonder if you can hold a blind date meeting between the family and the army bachelors to help some single soldiers in the army get rid of their singles."

Hou Junji asked Li Kuan bluntly.

This question made Li Kuan silent, not wanting to answer at all, just staring at Hou Junji with a pair of dead fish eyes, waiting for his next words.

The silent Li Kuan did not affect Hou Junji, he continued: "I have just arrived, and in the face of this strange border army, I feel that I will get some benefits for everyone to help me master the army. ”

What Hou Junji said was reasonable and well-founded, but Li Kuan couldn't believe a word.
