Chapter 570: I guessed
"Your Highness." A Shilu knelt down directly for Li Ke, more than 3,000 stones of gold, he wanted to cry, how high is His Highness's trust in him!
"His Royal Highness's trust in the minister, the minister is really unrequited." Ashilu was lying on the ground, and he wanted to cry.
"Okay, I know your loyalty, listen to me first, the current exchange ratio of gold and silver in the vicinity of Great Food and Persia is about 1:10, and after you go, exchange all the gold for silver." Li Ke said.
"Yes!" Ah Shilu said in a deep voice, he didn't know what His Highness was going to do, but he would do whatever His Highness told him to do.
"Your identity is not from the Tang Dynasty, you speak Turkic language, this time I will send 1,000 cavalry from Xizhou to accompany you, they are all Turkic faces."
"Don't divulge that."
"Yes!"
"If you go back and get ready, you can go directly, as for the gold, I will deliver it to you at that time, and I will let people follow you." Li Ke said.
"Yes!"
After Ah Shilu left, Tian Meng looked at Li Ke with some confusion and asked, "Your Highness, who are you?" ”
"It's nothing, since you make money, then before you do business, you should first make a profit through the exchange ratio of gold and silver." Li Ke said with a smile.
In fact, the method is very simple, the amount of gold and silver in ancient times is not as much as in modern times, and the current ratio of gold and silver in Persia is about 1:10, and Li Ke is ready to let Ashilu exchange gold for silver. 200 tons of gold, can be exchanged for 2,000 tons of silver.
2,000 tons of silver dare not say that all the silver in Persia and Arabia has been exchanged, but it must be able to exchange for one.
After the exchange is completed here, Li Ke will order all the Tang caravans sold to Persia and other places, and if they want to buy the goods of the Tang Dynasty, especially weapons and armor, I will only accept silver! I, Li Ke, like silver! I don't like gold.
When merchants in Persia and other places wanted to buy the goods of the Tang Dynasty and found that there was no silver in the market, the exchange ratio of silver and gold would naturally increase greatly.
At that time, this price may gradually rise to around 1:5.
At that time, Li Ke gradually exchanged the silver exchanged by A Shilu and slowly converted it into gold.
As long as the market is eager enough, this silver can be eaten up quickly, and at that time he can exchange it for 400 tons of gold, and when the time comes, Li Ke will gradually use commodities to earn back all the silver.
That's probably how it works, make a wave of price difference first.
Or if they don't want to exchange, they don't have enough silver, and they just want to settle in gold, so let them have to settle according to the gold and silver exchange ratio of Datang 1:5, I am the prince of Datang, I want this ratio of gold and silver is very reasonable, right?
Either you give me silver, or you settle me at a ratio of 1:5.
And if you settle the bill, I have to take advantage of the lack of purity of your gold and collect more from you.
Li Ke probably told Tian Meng about the relevant operations, and Tian Meng was speechless, Your Highness, you really have a lot of ways to make money, but this is to make money from the Persians, of course he has no problem.
After arranging with Tian Meng here, Li Ke tidied up his clothes, changed into a set of casual clothes, and asked Tian Meng to invite Lu Dongzan over.
Lu Dongzan sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty this time, he was fully prepared in his heart, although he is not currently a henchman of Songtsan Gampo, but he has also initially shown his talent, so Lu Dongzan can have the qualifications for this mission.
As long as he does a good job this time, then his position with Zampu will naturally rise in the future, and their family's territory will also be more stable.
And the envoy naturally wanted to see His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and he had already made the concert with His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, as for whether His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty knew about the transaction between Zanbu and His Royal Highness the King of Qin, Lu Dongzan thought that he knew.
Although the other party didn't know, with his understanding of King Qin, the other party should know, but there are some things that can't be put on the surface.
In order to solve the worries of Tubo for the Tang Dynasty, His Royal Highness the King of Qin put forward a very good suggestion this time, and it can only be said that it is not a loss to His Royal Highness the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty.
When he was thinking about how to ask to see His Royal Highness King Qin in his residence, Lu Dongzan suddenly received a notice from the guards below, saying that His Royal Highness the King of Qin was asking for a meeting.
Lu Dongzan was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, and hurriedly stood up and went out to meet the other party in person.
Although the other party is a housekeeper, you have to see whose housekeeper it is.
After seeing Tian Meng, Tian Meng directly handed Li Ke's invitation to the other party, and said that if he wanted, he could go to see His Royal Highness King Qin today, and if he didn't have time today, he could do it tomorrow.
Lu Dongzan immediately said that he would go to see His Royal Highness King Qin today.
When Lu Dongzan saw Li Ke, he couldn't help but look up and down, I have to say, it is not a loss to be able to overwhelm the ministers of the Tang Dynasty and make the gate valve family of the Tang Dynasty pay a huge price.
"Gar Dongzan has met His Royal Highness the King of Qin." Lu Dongzan bent down and saluted.
"Excuse me, envoy Langjun comes, presumably Songtsen Gampu Zampu has already had a good income?" Li Ke asked with a smile.
Lu Dongzan took a deep breath, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is really smart, he just felt that His Royal Highness the King of Qin is on par with Zampu, now it seems that Zampu may not be comparable, as far as His Royal Highness the King of Qin can guess the current situation in Tubo from the purpose of his visit this time.
For this alone, Zamp would definitely not have guessed.
You must know that after he came to Datang, except for the letter to His Majesty the Emperor of Datang, nothing else was leaked, and the current situation in Tubo, it is impossible for Datang to have spies to get the news, because the past winter was very terrifying on the plateau.
"Yes! His Royal Highness is indeed as wise as a torch. Lu Dongzan saluted Li Ke again.
"That's good, this shows that my previous suggestion was right, Tubo obviously has a better target for bullying, why do you have to go against Datang? And repeated defeats, repeated defeats, is it not fun to bully the weak? Or is it not fun to plunder the golden population? Or is exotic women not fun? Li Ke smiled and nodded.
Lu Dongzan: "......"
He was a little speechless, this ...... Although this is the case, is it really good for Your Highness to be so direct?
"Thanks to His Highness's guidance, before I came, Zampu explained to me many times, to thank His Highness for his guidance, I heard that His Highness likes gold, Zampu gave 50 stones of gold as a gift to His Highness this time." Lu Dongzan said seriously.
"So, did Zampu take Nibra (part of Nepal in later life) or Gundam (Bangladesh and northern India in Bangladesh)?" Li Ke asked with a smile
Lu Dongzan raised his head and looked at Li Ke in some astonishment, this time he was really shocked, "Your Highness...... Where did you find out? ”
"Guess." Li Ke spit out two words in his mouth.
