Chapter 210 It's time to pretend
Naturally, I was excited.
The businessman immediately resigned and took a boat to Lingnan to talk to Zhang Han about business.
All countries in Southeast Asia have roughly experienced such things.
Every country is in great need of coal.
Although they were somewhat uncomfortable selling their own coal mines, they would not be able to make good use of these coal mines without digging for Zhang Han.
So I can only agree to Zhang Han's conditions.
Zhang Han immediately dispatched his own army and brought many people from various major tribes to dig coal in Southeast Asian countries.
On the one hand, you can dig coal to make money,
On the other hand, people from these major tribes will also find women locally and slowly infiltrate them. When the time comes to unify these Southeast Asian countries, there will also be a breakthrough.
Soon, the coal business was up and running.
Huge quantities of coal are brought up and down from ships every day.
Maritime trade has become more developed!
Correspondingly, there is a shortage of manpower.
However, because the living conditions of people in Lingnan are much better, the population has also surged.
There are so many newborns that every household has several children.
It can be predicted that Lingnan will enter a period of rapid development.
Both Zhang Han and Meng Huo were very excited.
Recently, I have been working harder and harder.
It's really cool to only have the coal mining technology at your fingertips.
Others know that such important materials are very important, but they can only let themselves dig them, and they can't move them.
You only need to pay a small price to receive a lot of wealth.
You can also control the lifeline of other countries!
It's really cool!
In Lingnan and even Southeast Asia, what Zhang Han and Meng Huo did was in full swing.
On the other side of Taoyuan Country in the north, naturally because of the coal, the cost of living has been reduced again, and the lives of ordinary people have been better.
East Turkistan itself has less fuel, which can be regarded as a major factor restricting the development of East Turks.
Although Taoyuan Country has the technology left by Li Hao, it is difficult for a smart woman to cook without rice, and it is barely enough to cook on weekdays.
Now that Taoyuan Country possesses the sharp weapon of coal, it is really even more powerful.
I don't know how much greater the advantage over East Turks is.
It is also very fast development.
Li Hao's two major territories, one in the south and the other in the north, are both developing rapidly.
And Li Hao himself.
Li Hao is in the outskirts of Chang'an. Apart from digging coal, he builds houses.
According to Li Hao, his residence must be comfortable.
According to the various comfortable living requirements of the previous life, Li Hao also built a garden, a swimming pool, a small beach, and a court.
Anyway, the place is big, and Li Hao is planning to plant trees here and get some animals. Then he can get some bows and arrows, and take a few people to hunt together.
Anyway, with such a large open space, Li Hao has so many skills, it can be said that he can do whatever he wants.
Life can be extremely comfortable.
With coal and other fuels, many building materials can be refined faster.
Li Hao is also planning to build a [-]-meter-high building for sightseeing.
At that time, the entire Chang'an City can be seen almost in a panoramic view.
The taste is also quite good.
Of course, even Li Hao couldn't complete such a big project all at once, but it wouldn't take too long. Li Hao had enough money to hire craftsmen, so he just had to work overtime day and night.
Just when Li Hao was busy transforming his territory.
Li Shimin is busy with a big event.
In recent days, due to the great strength of the Tang Dynasty, many small countries around the country have paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty.
In history, the Tang Dynasty ruled by Li Shimin was indeed the dynasty of all nations.
There are already signs of this.
Li Shimin naturally did not dare to neglect such important diplomacy.
After discussing with the ministers for several days, how to deal with these small countries, they finally decided that it is better to show the national strength of the Great Tang at the same time.
In this way, these small countries can be convinced and willingly worship under the banner of Datang.
He, Li Shimin, can also become a figure like Tian Khan.
this day.
According to the previously planned schedule, Li Shimin summoned envoys from various countries today.
He wants to shock the messengers.
In front of Chengtian Gate.
All civil and military officials have arrived.
This can be said to be the first time in the history of the Tang Dynasty that envoys from many countries came together to pay tribute. The significance is naturally extraordinary, so all the ministers attach great importance to this matter.
Therefore, everyone who gathered in front of Chengtianmen looked extremely solemn.
A total of eight families came from the surrounding small countries.
After the envoys of these eight families came to Datang, they all admired them one after another.
After all, Datang is a big country, and the weather everywhere is extraordinary, how can ordinary small countries compare with it.
So there was a look of yearning on their faces.
After coming over according to the rules, they bowed down to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin saw that these envoys were genuinely afraid of him, and he was very proud.
Who can be unhappy?
Isn't it the feeling of trying to make everyone in the world obey me when you are the emperor?
Li Shimin smiled slightly and signaled the envoys to get up.
These messengers respectfully offered their gifts one by one.
It's not an expensive gift.
All are native products of each country.
According to the rules, Li Shimin should give back at this time.
Li Shimin and Fang Du looked at each other.
It's time to pretend.
At this time, the national strength of Datang was displayed.
Li Shimin said with a smile:
"Since your tribute is so earnest, I will give a hundred bottles of alcohol, a thousand catties of salt, and ten thousand sheets of paper to each country!"
Li Shimin didn't give Tudou Quyuanli these things.
the reason is simple.
Potatoes are easy to grow again, and it is easy to leak if it is spread, so Li Shimin gave up giving potatoes.
As for alcohol, salt, and paper, only Li Hao has the technology to make them, and even the royal family doesn't know all about them, let alone these small countries.
The envoys of these small countries all looked confused.
"A thousand catties of salt?"
"Datang Khan, you are really generous!"
What is the concept of a thousand catties of salt?You must know that many small countries may not use a thousand catties of salt a year.
All of a sudden, the small country was given a year's worth of salt, and this reward was not insignificant.
The envoys of these small countries asked doubtfully:
"I don't know what this alcohol is? Is it a fine wine?"
"And this paper, why haven't I heard of it, what kind of treasure is this?"
Li Shimin smiled and said:
"This alcohol has a disinfecting effect. Let's put it this way, if you are traumatized, use this alcohol to smear the wound to prevent infection and prevent the wound from deteriorating."
The envoys of the small countries were astonished!
Can wound deterioration be prevented?
This effect is too great!
Who doesn't know that wound deterioration is extremely prone to accidents, and if you are not careful, you will be separated from yin and yang.
Therefore, no one wants to be injured on the battlefield.
To be wounded is to die.
Now with this alcohol, wouldn't it be possible to take one's life away from Hades?
All the envoys from the small countries were very excited.
"Kneel down and thank Datang Khan for giving us the life-saving medicine!"
Li Shimin enjoyed the flattery, was very satisfied, and said with a smile:
"And this paper can be used for writing, it is very light, you see." Li Shimin motioned an eunuch to take out a piece of paper as white as snow, and handed it to the envoys from the small country.
