In the city of Luoyang, the capital of God, there was jubilation.

At this time, Zhuxia still maintained a strong pioneering heart, before the arrival of the wind of the two Song Dynasty rites, the people of Zhuxia were the most pioneering spirit in the world, holding a horizontal knife, a horse dared to break out of the world.

Zhang Qian chiseled the Western Regions, Ban Chao 36 rode across the Western Regions, Zhao Tuo opened Lingnan and so on.

After the ceremony of presenting the prisoners of the Victory Mission, Wang Jing directly rewarded the warriors with wine and meat. The missions that came to report the victory were naturally all meritorious in battle, and at the same time, they also let them come to receive rewards.

Wang Jing reprimanded King Qiuzi at the court meeting, and finally named him a disobedient uncle, with 100 households. Keep him for a walk every time it's a holiday.

After the victory ceremony, these warriors rushed home to share the fruits of this victory with their families.

Wang Jing is also as good as a stream, and specially ordered people to send wine and food for them to take home to enjoy. Wang Jing did this in order to take these soldiers as role models. Let others see that although the distance is far and hard to go to the border of the Western Regions, the benefits obtained are also very real.

I want to encourage more people and soldiers to go to the Western Regions and other places to explore.

The Li family also returned with the wine and meat rewarded by His Majesty the Emperor, and there were some merchants who came back with him. These merchants had already noticed it when the mission returned.

All the soldiers returned with a large amount of booty, including jade, precious stones, gold and silver vessels, and so on. Although it is worth a lot of money, it is not used by ordinary families, and it is better to sell it to those merchants.

After each victory, the soldiers who participated in the war would reap a large amount of booty, but sometimes, because the loot was too large, the merchants would band together to lower the price. The vast majority of these businessmen are supported by officials and nobles from the DPRK and China.

Otherwise, they would not be able to afford such a big deal, so these merchants had many of them, and the soldiers returned victorious, and the money earned with their lives was wantonly lowered by those merchants. How could those warriors be so angry that they almost chopped up the merchants on the spot.

The worst of them almost caused a riot, so at a very early stage, the caravans of the royal family joined them. Give a reasonable purchase price for these loot.

If the soldiers felt that the price offered by the other merchants was low, they could sell their goods to the royal caravanserais, and the children were not deceived. With the royal caravan as the backing, other merchants can only accept it even if they are unwilling. As for making small moves again, then don't blame the emperor for his hot hands.

Wang Jing can allow those nobles, officials, and local tycoons to make money, but he is absolutely not allowed to bully the soldiers.

With the royal caravan dragging the bottom, the other caravans no longer dare to join forces to oppress the soldiers, and without the unified alliance, it will be up to their own abilities. Therefore, it is usually several merchants who bid together, and the highest bidder wins.

After the many loot brought back by the Li family Dalang were sold out, they got a full 200,000 yuan, you must know that at this time, one stone of rice is only fifty yuan, which is enough for the Li family to live a prosperous life.

After collecting the taxes, the officials of the inspection department issued a contract to the orchid of the Li family, and then said goodbye to him.

These orchids are now in high demand, as long as they are willing to sell, they can easily sell for 100,000 yuan. Those dignitaries are now flocking to these orchids.

Wang Bo sent 500 orchids, and Wang Jing divided a batch of these 500 orchids to the children of the royal family, another batch to the princes, and a batch to the ministers and nobles of the court.

Luoyang City is now very sought after after these exotic and glamorous orchids, especially since these orchids can basically dance and sing, which is even better.

The Li family did not intend to sell the orchid, and the merchants who wanted to do the orchid business had to leave disappointed.

Although he has not yet married a wife, it is good to leave a orchid to warm the bed.

That night, because of the imperial gift of wine and meat, the Li family was very lively, and after the wine and food were full, the Li family gave the old man Li a look.

Old man Li understood instantly, and immediately motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then said to Li Dalang: "What do you think?" ”

Li Dalang rubbed his chin, and then said: "Today's saint is wise and decisive, the saint is incomparably bright, and he has been forging ahead. ”

"Speaking of which, this 200,000 yuan is enough for our family to live a prosperous life, even if it is more than enough for a few younger brothers to marry a family, but what about after that? Have you ever wondered? ”

"Isn't that good? What does Big Brother want? The third brother asked a little stupidly.

Li Dalang glanced at him, as if to say why he was so unambitious, and then said: "Seal your wife and son, and seal the marquis immediately!" ”

"Shhh Everyone gasped, and then the room immediately became lively, and they all said: "Feng Hou! Feudal marquis! ”

A group of people were all excited after hearing the marquis, they couldn't help but be excited, if it was really a marquis, and the family tree would be compiled in the future, he would be written in the front side by side with the ancestors, and the ancestral hall in the family was also the top one.

The temptation of this man is almost at the top, even if it is the compilation of the county chronicle in his hometown, he must write it for him, and pass it on independently.

"Da Lang is sure to be a marquis?" Even the old man of the Li family couldn't help it and asked.

Li Dalang said: "Yes, you also know that the difficulty of sealing the marquis now, after the Huns fled north, there is no big war, even if you have the strength, there is no enemy to fight you, how to seal the marquis?" ”

"Fortunately, this time I went to the Western Regions to defend it, which made me see hope, coupled with the attitude of the Son of Heaven, it is possible to obtain the title of marquis!"

"Boss, tell me carefully!" Old man Li got serious.

Although Old Man Li is over seventy years old, he has a clear mind. I also know something about the court, this Luoyang City will be Chaoyang District of Beijing in the future, and it can almost be said that it is a clear door for the affairs of the court.

Li Dalang said in a low voice: "The Son of Heaven has been immigrating to Shibian all these years, yes, you also know that the Central Plains has a large population now, and if it goes on like this, the fields will definitely not be enough, what should I do when the time comes?" Only go to the newly opened states and counties. ”

"But don't you have to use a large army to conquer the state and county? However, the Western Regions are thousands of miles away from the Central Plains, and the cost of the army to go to the conquest of logistics is huge, and it is not cost-effective. Therefore, the imperial court mostly sent elites and expeditionary sons. ”

"And in order to encourage these sons and daughters to go on an expedition, Your Majesty is naturally willing to give a generous reward, as long as you make meritorious deeds, even if you can't be a marquis, you can become an official or a county magistrate."

"If you are really lucky, you will definitely be a marquis when the time comes. Even if the merit is worse, His Majesty will give the title of marquis in order to encourage development. This is the best opportunity for our old Li family to become a noble official! ”

Everyone listened to Li Dalang's words, and they were all very excited, eager to prepare weapons and armor immediately, sign up for the expedition athletes, and then fight one to seal the marquis immediately.

"Big brother, what is the strength of those barbarians?" Saburo next to him asked.

Li Dalang laughed and said: "The strength can only be said to be okay, most of those barbarians have no armor, most of them are leather armor, and there are few iron armors, just this Qiuzi country, His Royal Highness King Liang personally led an army of 8,000 people, and broke through the 20,000 Qiuzi army in one battle." There were few casualties. ”

"Almost everyone who goes to the Western Regions has armor, and even if there is no armor, and when we get there, we can shoot arrows behind the armor, and we can get a piece at that time."

"The Qiuzi Kingdom is already one of the strongest countries in the Western Regions, and the other small countries in the Western Regions are not worth mentioning at all."

"The Huns were able to suppress the Western Regions back then and make the countries of the Western Regions submit, it makes no sense that we can defeat the Huns, and we can't defeat the Western Regions people in turn!"

"That's right!" Everyone laughed.

The strength of the Huns They knew very well that the imperial court in order to defeat the Huns, but they recuperated for forty years, and then the war was decided.

These are just goods that were beaten by the Huns, how can they compete with the Great Qian.

"Da Lang, it is said that the Western Regions are full of yellow sand, and there is no grass." The old father asked with some concern.

"Father, there is indeed yellow sand in the Western Regions, and even many places are desert Gobi, but it is by no means like those people say!" Li Dalang shook his head and said.

"It's like the city of Qiuzi, with a population of 100,000, and it is surrounded by fertile fields and all kinds of fruits. There is also the city of heaven, it is said that the fertile land is one million acres, and its heavenly spring water is said to be given by the king of astronomy, and often drink the spring water to prevent all diseases, and prolong life. ”

"There are many oases in the Western Regions, among which the abundant products are not inferior to our Central Plains. Nine times out of ten, those who promote the barren land of the Western Regions have bad intentions, if it is really a barren land, where did I get these trophies? ”

Li Dalang said with a smile.

"Hehe, I know this." Master Li glanced at everyone and continued: "Those merchants said this because they wanted to intimidate others not to go to the Western Regions to do business, and their caravans would be able to monopolize the Western Regions. ”

"Da Lang, do we have a lot of people in the Western Regions?"

Li Dalang shook his head and said: "It's not much, there are about 100,000 in Tianci City, plus the Western Regions Protectorate and the expeditionary athletes, there are almost 150,000." ”

"Good grandson, you go and tell your general, let Erlang Sanlang go with you, and then there will be a response, just like the so-called tiger brothers, father and son soldiers, the three of you go together!" Old man Li pretended to be happy and said.

He knows that his grandsons have been dancing with guns and sticks since they were children, not a peaceful temperament, even if they are stopped now, he will definitely go if he dies in the future, and it is better to go late than early.

If you go early, you can choose more locations.

When everyone in the Li family heard Old Man Li say this, their faces were sometimes solemn and sometimes excited. After all, this is going to the Western Regions thousands of miles away, and once you go, it will be difficult to come back.

But Hao'er Lang is ambitious in all directions, and the Son of Heaven strongly supports it, since the grandson wants to give it a go, then give it a go!
