Chapter 82: It's All a Routine
"It's Li Zhenlangjun, the eldest son of Jin Ziguanglu's eldest husband Li Shiji, who handled the first gold membership of Youma Mall for his father." Tian Meng said seriously.
"Li Shiji?" Li Ke was a little confused, Li Shiji is Li Ji, Li Ji was renamed Li Ji after Li Ke's father Li Shimin died of illness, in order to avoid Li Shimin's name.
He has nothing to do with Li Shiji, Li Shiji has not yet been crowned a British duke, and the intersection of the two is just a nodding acquaintance. And Li Shiji is not from a family of gate lords, Li Jing was born in the Danyang House of the Li family in Longxi, and he is the same Li family in Longxi as Li Ke.
But although Li Shiji's background is ordinary, this one has experienced the three dynasties of Tang Gaozu, Taizong, and Gaozong in his life, and has also avoided Wu Zetian's attack on various courtiers of the Tang Dynasty.
This...... The problem is that Li Ke is a little confused, is he optimistic about himself? The current requirement for Gold members is to maintain at least 50% of the amount in their account.
Forget it, since he has filled this gold membership, he can't let these gold members down. Meet, the last time his father came, he said that Li Jing went to attack Tuyuhun? Li Ke's thoughts were a little confused, he remembered that Tuyuhun was not destroyed until the late Tang Dynasty, but since he was fighting now, it was impossible to return without results.
In the early stage of the Tang Dynasty, there were almost no failed wars, and Li Shimin's Heavenly Khan was not blown out, but fought in real terms.
So...... It may be that the leader of Tuyuhun has surrendered, just like although the Eastern Turks have been destroyed, the Turks are still there, but the Turks are now submissive to the Tang Dynasty and submit to the Tang Dynasty.
As long as you are weak, I will immediately reflexively bite you, but one thing that must not be said is that the deterrence of the Tang Dynasty towards the nomads can also be said to be very strong, at least when these ethnic minorities who submitted to the Tang Dynasty weakened in the late Tang Dynasty, there were still many loyal ministers, which is also magical.
Hey, that's the difference between historical records and real ones, history only records the results, and the approximate process, but what happened in between, no one knows.
However, if he remembers correctly, Tuyuhun's royal city seems to be on the shore of Qinghai Lake, because it is a grassland, and for Tuyuhun, who is also a nomadic people, it is a land of abundant water and grass.
Since Wangcheng is near Qinghai Lake, it is not far from Chaka Salt Lake, and getting Chaka Salt Lake means that a large amount of salt can be used, similar to the drying method of sea salt in later generations.
The drying and production method of sea salt first appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty, but due to the poor technology, the decoction method was still used, so the salt production in this era was difficult and costly.
The real success of the drying method was in the late Qing Dynasty, but it was naturally not difficult for Li Ke, he had a complete set of books on the drying of sea salt, lake salt, and the production of refined salt.
In this way, it seems that you can kill more than one stone, Li Ke touched his chin, let his business house cooperate with Li Jing, Li Ji, or Hou Junji, and then cooperate with some local soldiers to dry a large amount of salt, and the massive amount of low-cost salt will inevitably bring terrifying profits.
In this way, Datang has a reason and financial resources to garrison troops in Tuyuhun, and part of the profits in it, whether it is cooperation with Li Ji, Li Jing or Hou Junji, in fact, the final benefit is the low-level government soldiers, which means that he has attracted a group of low-level soldiers.
There were many ancient Chinese dynasties that defeated nomads, but the reason why they were repeatedly uncontrollable was not because these dynasties did not want to garrison troops, but in this era, the cost of garrisoning troops was too great for various dynasties to afford.
But a Chaka salt lake is enough for Datang to eat for hundreds of years, and the salt of Chaka salt lake is still a rare high-purity sodium chloride salt lake, unlike other salt lakes and sea salt, after drying, there are many other salt components in it, and these are difficult to eliminate in this era.
There is a difference between salt lakes and salt lakes, although many salt lakes are also salty, but that thing is not even sodium chloride, for example, Lop Nur, which has not dried up in this era, is also called Peacock Sea, which is a potash salt lake.
Although potassium salt can be eaten, it takes a lot of work to become a potash that people can eat, and there is no such thing in this era.
Meet, no, I helped Lao Li solve the trouble, and I have to ask him for benefits when the time comes.
Two days later, Yang Anning and the four of them are going back to Chang'an City, and it is not okay to leave them at today's party.
"You are very important today, I will ask Tian Meng to find a few people to act as nurseries and give you rewards. Bound to be someone else, you can just take it when the time comes, and the money is your own income. Li Ke said.
"Your Highness, we ......" Yang Li originally wanted to say that His Highness has already given enough, and we don't need these incomes.
But halfway through her speech, Yang Anning pulled her clothes, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness Xie." ”
There is a shopping mall Shanhefang store, there are many people who have received invitations today, without exception, all the members have come, after all, His Royal Highness the King of Shu has said that today is for them to perform for these members.
And the money is spent, so naturally I want to see the difference between this member.
In the same way, the number of non-members who came today is also higher, and in fact, there is a mall that has appeared so far, and although it is the products that attract a lot of people, the food and the performances every night at the mall attract more people!
There is no entertainment in this era, otherwise Pingkangfang would not be so popular.
And after Li Ke's adjustment, the songs sung by Yang Anning and them attracted too many people, because these compositions are very novel, completely different from the repertoire of this era, especially the music played by the whole band, highlighting an atmosphere!
Other Qinglou wants to imitate, but this era is different from later generations, if you want to imitate here, first you have to see who the imitation object is. Second...... If no one teaches it, the bar for this thing is not that low.
So this has created a mall's daily evening performances, which are even more popular than the original Huiyue Building.
Ah Shilu tidied up his makeup at the moment and arrived at the door of the mall, he is now a Hu merchant from Dashi, and he has come to Datang to do business. No one knew that he was actually a member of His Highness, and after their tribe was slaughtered by another tribe and his mother was snatched away, he was taken in by His Highness's people who escaped by luck.
Since then, Ah Shilu seems to have come to a new world, he has never felt that life is so bright, before that he believed in the Immortal Heaven, but after that, he only believed in His Highness!
There are several important tasks today, for example, he personally invited a lot of Hu merchants from the Western Regions, some nobles from the 36 countries of the Western Regions and others to come here, for the sake of naturally the money in their hands, so that they can "willingly" offer the money in their hands to His Highness, and contribute to His Highness's cause, which is for their good.
Otherwise, would they have the privilege of seeing His Highness's means of doing business?
In the respectful greeting of several maids, A Shilu entered the hall and arrived at the performance venue, and when he came here, he saw that many of the Hu merchants he had invited, as well as some Hu Shang who had not been invited by him, had already come.
As soon as he entered, several maids in the hall immediately bowed respectfully, and the maid who took the lead said in a loud voice: "Hello respected Ashilulangjun, are you sitting in the hall or the box today?" ”
All the Hu merchants, the envoys of the West Lake countries were surprised, how could these maids respect this Hu merchant so much? You must know that the Tang Dynasty is the upper kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, and they, the nobles of the Western Regions Kingdom, came here, and the maids here did not look down on them, but they were different for this person.
"The hall." Ah Shilu said lightly.
"Please." The maid who took the lead immediately led him to the front row and the best position in the hall to watch the performance.
And that position was already full of many powerful people of the Tang Dynasty, but they wanted to sit there before, but they were all persuaded by the maid to retire on the grounds that someone had reserved it.
And now, it's actually a Hu businessman?! All the Tang magnates were immediately furious! In the Tang Dynasty, it is different from later generations, in the Tang Dynasty, even the people on the street look down on these Hu people, this is still the Zhenguan period, and so on until the Gaozong period, and then it will be the real dynasty of all countries!
"Why is he sitting in the best position here?!" A scholar disciple was not convinced, and said loudly.
"Back to Mr. Hui, he is a distinguished silver member of a mall, His Royal Highness the King of Shu said that here, in a mall, he and other members are the most distinguished guests, because they believe in His Royal Highness the King of Shu, His Royal Highness said, if you have any questions, you can find him a theory." The maid said softly.
Looking for the theory of King Shu? Belch...... Forget it, this scholar disciple sat down decisively, although he was not happy, but he was ...... with the King of Shu Forget it.
And he didn't notice that the eyes of those Hu Shang next to him, who could only sit in the corner, were getting brighter and brighter!
