In order not to be touted to death, Li Shen began to change the subject.

"Ahem,"

Li Shen coughed lightly and continued:

"For more than a month, I think Chen Dade should be ready. When the time comes, there will be civil strife, and the number of people harvesting grain will definitely not be much.

When the time comes, let the treasure king forcibly recruit men and compete with the people to buy food. Anyway, tell Chen Dade how to mess up and how to come.

We only need to prepare a batch of weapons and equipment and secretly transport them to the sea. ”

After Li Shen finished speaking, everyone began to think about the feasibility, and indeed what Li Shen said was feasible.

Civil strife is a precursor to the collapse of a dynasty, and when the time comes, Yuangai Suwen will definitely put down the civil strife first.

"Well, Li Shen, your idea is good, I am discussing it with the princes. You go back first. Li Shimin saw that Li Shen finished speaking, so he said to Li Shen, the details still need to be discussed.

"By the way, tell Chen Dade that the grain purchased from all over the country should be transported to our military camp stationed on the border of Goguryeo in batches, so as to avoid what to do if the people are robbed when they riot.

There is also money for the purchase of grain, it should be a lot, I don't think the treasury is rich, so let's do it, no matter how much it is collected, it is considered to be my Ji Wangfu, and this money is out of my Ji Wangfu.

When I return home, I will let Wang Xuance personally transport the money by sea. It should be regarded as the king's contribution to the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Shen's words made the ministers present puzzled, this King Ji is known as the master who wants money for death, why is he so generous today, these people are not good people, and there must be demons when things go wrong.

Especially Li Shimin, who knows Li Shen well, his first reaction was that there must be huge benefits in this. Otherwise, his son wouldn't be so kind.

"As a prince, it should be like this, but your house is not so rich, so I will give half of the money from the treasury, and half of your house. It's good to call someone to pull it later. ”

Li Shimin and Li Shen learned to take first and take it first. No matter how it is, take half of it first. Even if he loses, he will solve the problem of Goguryeo with half of the money, and he will not lose anything.

Li Shen looked at Li Shimin and smacked his mouth a few times, and finally said nothing and said goodbye.

After going out, he glanced back at the Liangyi Palace, sighed, and earned half less.

Li Shen has planned it, if this plan succeeds. When the time comes, he can sell the grain to Yuangai Suwen for ten times the price, or the Treasure King.

There are still some nobles at the worst, and the people of Goguryeo can also scrape a layer. It's a pity that Li Shimin intervened.

Li Shen returned to the palace and immediately called Wang Xuance.

"Xuan Ce, this time I will give you a task, let you go to Goguryeo, do you dare to go." It's a bit risky to go this time

"Don't worry, Wang Mou is also a general, and he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. There is still the power of self-preservation. ”

"Okay, I'll let you go to Goguryeo to send money to Chen Dade, and then you will stay in Goguryeo to cooperate with Chen Dade to buy grain, and you will also send people to Baekje to buy grain, as well as their native products."

Saying that, Li Shen told Wang Xuance about the plan he thought, which was actually a rough plan, and the rest was up to Wang Xuance to do it according to the situation after he arrived.

"Our ultimate goal is to allow the Treasure King to stabilize his foothold, the second is the food crisis, and the third is to make money. Got it? ”

"Don't worry, Wang understands" Wang Xuance nodded

On the same day, Li Shen sent someone to pull out 1 million guan from the inner garment, and Li Shen himself was sending out 1 million guan is 2 million guan.

Li Shen calculated that the price of grain in Goguryeo had not risen too much at this time, less than 20 wen a dou, and Li Shen did not plan to directly buy grain at five times the price, little by little, and first purchase grain at three times the price.

Two million guan can purchase more than 3 million stone of grain, one stone and ten buckets, one bucket of twelve catties, nearly 400 million catties of grain.

The population of Goguryeo is only about 3 million, and it is still a time when there is still a shortage of green and yellow, and Li Shen estimates that he may not be able to collect so much, but if the aristocratic families of Goguryeo also sell it, it will be possible.

The next day, Wang Xuance found dozens of large merchant ships at Weishui Wharf, and it took a day just to transport the money to the ships.

Li Shen prepared to transport 1 million guan to Goguryeo by sea and land. But Li Shen ignored the weight of the copper coin.

One million pounds and more than six million catties, Li Shen does not have an ocean cruise. So I had no choice but to find dozens of large merchant ships and barely transport them away.

According to Li Shen's plan, after entering the sea, these inland river transfer ships arrived in Dengzhou to change to sea ships and arrived in Pyongyang to join Chen Dade.

And Wang Xuance did not buy grain in the name of the imperial court this time, but in the name of Ji Wangfu.

Otherwise, it is easy to arouse Yuan Gai Suwen's suspicion that there is some purpose of Datang.

"Xuan Ce, this is dangerous, you must be more careful, don't force it if you can't do it.

For this king, you are more important than the whole of Goguryeo, this time it can't be done, we have a way, everything is safety-oriented. ”

At Weishui Wharf, Li Shen came over to give Wang Xuance a farewell.

"Thank you for your concern, Wang will pay attention, and please rest assured, this time I went to Goguryeo, Wang will do his best to complete the things that the prince explained, and he will never lose face to the palace."

Wang Xuance was very moved by Li Shen's words that he was more important than the whole of Goguryeo, and decided in his heart that he must complete the task assigned by the prince.

The so-called scholar dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases herself.

"Xuan Ce, if you can meet Yuangai Suwen, or if Yuangai Suwen is suspicious, you can vaguely reveal to him that this king is dissatisfied with the court and wants to establish himself as the king.

Of course, don't be too obvious, otherwise he will suspect it, since Yuangai Suwen can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, he should be a hero.

That way you'll get things done more smoothly. It doesn't matter if you want to buy more grain from the people first, arrange more people and go to every city to collect it.

After receiving it, the customs clearance document that let them pass through the customs was said to be bought by the prince of the Tang Dynasty and transported to the military camp at the border gate. ”

The reason Li Shen has thought about it for Wang Xuance, that is, King Ji wants to quietly store grain.

Yuangai Suwen himself started by rebellion, and he should understand what it means when he hears it.

At that time, Li Shen estimated that Yuan Gai Suwen would not only not stop it, but might also contribute to the trouble.

He thought that if the Tang Dynasty was in civil strife, there would be no way to control him attacking Silla.

Ambitious people often feel that others are ambitious, as long as there is a rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang court is too busy to take care of itself, and he will take this opportunity to increase the offensive against Silla and take Silla in one fell swoop.

This is human nature, and Li Shen has gained experience through the judgment of history by later generations.

"Don't worry, Wang will do his best and won't miss the prince's big event."

"Okay, it's not too early, this king wishes you all the best and success." Li Shen took two glasses of wine from Chunxiang's hand, and handed one to Wang Xuance.

Wang Xuance took the wine glass, followed Li Shen to drink it all, and then turned around and boarded the cargo ship.
