Chapter 617: I'm for Your Good
"As long as Your Highness supports me! I'll take it! Su Yeli said directly without saying a word.
"It's okay for me to support you, but if one day, if I had some special request that you have to fulfill, will you agree?" Li Ke looked at her and asked.
"What special requirements?" Su Yeli was stunned for a moment, of course she didn't think that His Royal Highness King Qin had taken a fancy to her, her appearance was not even comparable to these maids around His Royal Highness King Qin.
"If one day, real wax comes into contact with people from other countries, for example, when you conduct bulk trade with people from other countries, you must use my Datang's currency unit as the benchmark, and your real wax has your own currency, but it must be linked to my Datang's currency."
"And when you buy my Datang materials, you must also use my Datang currency." Li Ke said lightly.
"Isn't that how it should be? I'm fine. Su Yeli was a little strange, although she was a little puzzled when she heard it, she didn't know much about things like exchange rates, but buying Datang's things, trading with Datang, and using Datang's currency shouldn't be?
"Well, you think it should be." Li Ke nodded, "Actually, I am also for the good of everyone, in order to make you better money, for example, the silk, porcelain, tea, etc. that you bought back from me, your real wax will definitely not be consumed, and you will definitely sell it to Mule Country and other countries at that time." ”
"If the trade between your country and the mule country is also in the currency of my Datang, won't this save you trouble? When the time comes, you can trade directly, lest you barter, and all things and values need to be renegotiated. ”
Su Yeli thought about it, it seems that this is the truth, the main thing is to trade with the currency of the Tang Dynasty, and after the trade comes back, it seems that you can still buy things with His Royal Highness, which is a good thing!
"I definitely support Your Highness!" Su Yeli agreed directly.
"Okay, since you agreed, then I must support you, of course, you also know that you can't eat the real wax yourself, after all, your strength is not enough for you to keep such a big fortune, so you will definitely have to give up some of these profits at that time." Li Ke nodded and said with a smile.
"No problem."
"Then we'll wait until the battle situation is clear, and we'll talk about it in a few days." Li Ke nodded, smiling and signaling that she could go down and rest.
At this time, Su Yeli suddenly realized that there was a conflict between True Wax and Datang, or rather...... There has not yet been a conflict, but it is already being prepared.
However, she is not worried, since His Highness said so, it proves that His Highness cannot completely eliminate the real wax, although Datang must have this strength.
On the third day after talking with Su Yeli, Qiu Lin led the Tang Dynasty border army of 8,000 to Xianglin City.
"Minister, Qiu Lin has seen His Highness." Qiu Lin naturally came over to see Li Ke for the first time.
"Excuse me, then the security work of the various cities in Linyi will be handed over to you, here will be the Xianglinyi of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and the Linyi country no longer exists." Li Ke waved his hand.
"Yes!" Qiu Lin didn't know what the emotion was, Lin Yi was indeed not big, but because there were important troops such as elephant soldiers stationed there, in fact, if the Tang Dynasty wanted to take it, there would be at least 20,000 or so elite troops.
After all, the impact of war elephants is really huge, no less than heavy cavalry.
But Your Highness, no one knows how Your Highness did it, it is said that Lin Yi himself rebelled, and then took the royal city, and wanted His Highness to be attached?
It's just that Qiu Lin himself doesn't think it's quite like it, it's too much of a coincidence, oh, if Your Highness doesn't come, you won't rebel, Your Highness will come and you rebel, what do you mean? Take the initiative to send a country to His Highness, right?
I've never seen anything so outrageous, but at least to the outside world, this is the truth.
Datang did not take the initiative to attack Linyi, but Linyi rebelled by itself, and after the rebels occupied the capital, they wanted Datang to surrender, and it was justified for Datang to accept it.
Li Ke thought about it for a while, all the current nobles in Linyi are dead, and it is quite suitable to be a pilot, so Li Ke is ready to directly transfer a large number of members of Li Dai's Yuelai Commercial Bank, and directly start appointing them, and added that among the officials at all levels in Linyi.
For example, the lowest-level village head, to the township head, the county magistrate is mainly supplemented by administrative officials, in addition to the more than 1,000 Linyi soldiers gathered by Shi Lang, combined with those soldiers who surrendered in Linyi before, all their numbers are disrupted, and then distributed to various counties and townships, each county is about 1,000 people on average.
Li Ke sent 200 men from his guards to give them a month's military training, and Li Ke would send ships back to Guangzhou to send another 500 soldiers he had trained, these soldiers had been trained by Li Ke before, but they were not suitable for serving as a navy, and seasickness was more severe.
But there's certainly nothing wrong with them acting as instructors.
In addition, all the soldiers in Linyi are in accordance with the navy that Li Ke organized before, and they all have monthly money, and the official provides food subsidies, free food and housing, etc.
Anyway, Li Ke is not short of food now, and after this series of policies, Li Ke wants to see how far the final result can be.
When Li Ke was making relevant plans, the south of Linyi and Kunnan City.
This is a military town in the southern part of Lim Eup, and it is related to the important land transportation artery to the north of Lim Eup.
Liu Yilong and Pei Xingjian arrived here about a day ago, and the remaining nobles in Kunnan City were gone, not that they were directly arrested in Xianglin City at the beginning, but the main families of the nobles here were in Xianglin City, and when the news of Xianglin City came, the soldiers here rebelled directly.
That's right, it can't be said to be a rebellion, but directly "responded" to the call of His Majesty the King, arrested the nobles here, and then directly executed.
And they waited in place, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up Tang army.
When Liu Yilong and Pei Xingjian arrived here, there were almost no high-ranking officials in the city, but there was no big disturbance, and even the original soldiers stayed in their respective barracks.
After taking over the entire city, Liu Yilong sent two or three lieutenants to temporarily manage the city, while their army went directly to the south of the city to hide.
According to the news they received, as well as the scouts released in advance, the army of True Wax was about to arrive.
In total, there were about 8,000 True Wax soldiers, and there were some troops from Linyi who were left to assist in transporting supplies to them.
Their purpose was simple, that is, to go straight to Kunnan City.
