Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2151 Mobei Meeting
Human beings are selfish.

Everyone thinks that he is the center of the world, born to shoulder great responsibilities, or to gather wealth and glory, or to gather power, fame and fortune into himself.When you end up lonely, wandering all your life, when your breath is dying, you just lament that you have a high fate and bad luck.

Therefore, people are often dissatisfied with life, resentful about fortune, and always feel that they are a "victim".

But I never really know myself and reflect on myself, and then resentment turns into hatred...

Righteousness, evil, goodness and evil have never been divided into boundaries. Those who oppose themselves will turn everything into medicine;One is to open up the path of goodness for all, and the other is to dredge up the source of all evils, so that they can go far away from each other.

*****
Xue Yantuo was destroyed, Bazhuo surrendered, and after the entire Mobei experienced a tragic massacre, all the tribes of Tie Le suffered almost irreparable damage, and people were panicked and sleepless. After the chiefs of the tribes comforted people at the request of Fang Jun Finally, when the first spring rain came, it gradually stabilized.

At the foot of Dujun Yu Mountain, the former place of Xue Yantuo's Yazhang.

According to Fang Jun's request, the entire Xue Yantuo tribe has already migrated to the south and settled on both sides of the Nuozhen River in the north of Wuchuan Town. The most populous tribe in the tribe.

Zhao Xincheng, Governor Yu Shanyazhang, and Longcheng, these three places will become the key places for troops to be stationed in the Hanhai Protectorate in the future. As long as these three places are firmly controlled, the entire Mobei will be under the control of the Tang army.

Of course, Fang Jun, who has seen too many invasions and being invaded, understands that blindly suppressing with strong force has always been the most entrusted method to occupy territory.

Maybe when you are strong and the enemy is weak, military force can have the effect of suppression, but no country can continue to be strong. When the country is weak, the Hu people will take advantage of the situation. How strong is the backlash.

Strengthening economic and cultural exchanges and promoting national integration is the way of expansion through the ages.

……

The spring rains are continuous, even though the mountains in the distance are already green and the grass sprouts have broken the soil, the temperature is still cold.

Inside the tent, hot boiling water was poured into the teapot, and the rising water vapor carried a faint tea fragrance, enveloping the entire tent.

In comparison, Hu people may be able to resist the temptation of wealth, beauty, and power, but it is really difficult to resist the comfort brought by tea.Almost all Hu people who eat meat all year round suffer from indigestion, and bloating and diarrhea have become chronic diseases that Hu people have to eat and sleep.

Tea has existed since ancient times.

In the Han Dynasty, tea leaves were made into tea paste.

Its procedure is very complicated, and consumes manpower very much.Most people at that time had not yet mastered the technology of planting tea trees, so the yield of tea was actually very low.If you want to make one catty of tea paste, you need at least ten catties of tea leaves to brew it, so ordinary people can't afford tea paste at all.

At that time, it was a very dignified thing for some small rich families to have some rough and old tea stalks in their homes to entertain guests.

It was not until the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties that tea-making techniques gradually became popular, and the art of "boiling tea" gradually spread and became the mainstream of society. Tea suddenly became popular, and it was also introduced to the Hu tribe at this time.When it was discovered that tea has the function of digestion, it immediately became a treasure that those chiefs and royal families rushed to, and even an indispensable necessities of life.

When Fang Jun's tea-frying technique became popular all over the world, the light and mellow tea quickly became popular throughout the grassland.

Of course, this is only spread among the nobles. Ordinary herdsmen absolutely cannot afford such expensive luxury goods.

More importantly, the production of fried tea has still not experienced a qualitative leap, and it is far from enough to supply the internal supply of Datang. How can there be any surplus to sell to the barbarians on the grassland?Even if some merchants obtained some tea through various channels and sold them on the grassland, it was still a drop in the bucket, far from being able to meet the huge consumption.

Therefore, on the grasslands, roasted tea leaves are almost as precious as gold, let alone drinking them, or even seeing them...

It was raining lightly, and the air on the grassland was a little humid, but Fang Jun still ordered people to open the windows of the camp, and the cool and humid air poured in, filled with the dense tea fragrance, and the water vapor wafted, which made people feel refreshed.

Duo Mozhi drank the tea, felt the comfortable feeling after the sweet and hot tea soup slid down his throat into his stomach, and the residual sweetness in his mouth, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he asked: "Marshal Fang, Now all the land in Mobei belongs to the Tang Dynasty, you and I are the ministers of the family. Mobei is bitter and cold, and it is not easy for all ethnic groups to survive, especially the demand for this tea is increasing day by day, and the total amount is huge. Why don't you open up a place? What about selling tea to Mobei? It should be noted that on the grasslands, tea is a necessity, more important than Tang people’s leisure drinking, and I assure you, the profit will naturally be more than doubled.”

He is in a very embarrassing situation now.

Originally, he thought that he could become Xue Yantuo's next chieftain by completely relying on Fang Jun. While receiving the full support of Datang, he would help Datang maintain his rule in Mobei.But there are thousands of calculations, but the only thing that has not been counted is that Ba Zhuo, who is usually arrogant and arrogant, can put down his weapon so quickly and simply surrender on his knees, so that he can't get up and down now, and he doesn't know how to deal with himself...

It was inevitable to hug Fang Jun's thigh tightly.

The best way to hold your thighs tightly is to show your usefulness. Both falcons and hounds can help hunters hunt wild animals, so they can be raised by hunters without having to withstand the harsh natural environment.The same is true for people, if you want others to value you and protect you, then you must show your abilities and uses.

He knew that the technique of frying tea was invented by the commander of the Tang Dynasty in front of him. Today, five or six out of ten of the fried tea produced in the Tang Dynasty come from the name of Fang Jun. If he can help Fang Jun act as an agent for tea in Mobei Sales can not only help Fang Jun grab a lot of wealth, but also win over those small tribes with tea and become a small interest group around him.

Only in this way can we protect ourselves.

Otherwise, maybe Fang Jun will leave Mobei and return to Chang'an tomorrow, and Ba Zhuo will be able to lead the soldiers to break through his camp at night and chop off his head...

Ba Zhuomang is really reckless, but he is definitely not stupid, otherwise it would be impossible for him to listen to Tu Midu's persuasion and surrender to the Tang army decisively when Fang Jun's soldiers approached the city.

Hearing Duomozhi's words at this moment, he immediately understood what the traitor was up to, and said immediately: "Marshal Fang, as long as you entrust me with the responsibility of the tea trade, I want you to promise that not only will you gain more profits than before. More than twice as much, and from now on, there will never be a catty or two of private tea flowing into the grassland, and all tea trades will only recognize your tea!"

This is to monopolize.

Dumozhi closed his eyes in pain.

After all, he is only a child of Xue Yantuo Khan's family, how can he compare with Bazhuo?What's more, Bazhuo's reputation is so powerful on the grasslands that anyone would be afraid of this tyrannical man. If he is determined to help Fang Jun monopolize the tea trade in Mobei, maybe he can really do it arrive.

An opportunity to hug her thigh was snatched away by Bazhuo just like that...

Dumozhi was both resentful and helpless.

Fang Jun sipped his tea, smiled lightly, and said, "I'm afraid I will disappoint you all. Now tea has been classified as a strategic resource by His Majesty, and all trade must be controlled and distributed by the empire. claims."

Because tea can digest food very well, dissolve the fat accumulated in the stomach and intestines, and eliminate various diseases caused by it, it can completely improve the physical fitness of Hu people and even greatly prolong their lifespan.

And the more and stronger the Hu people, the greater the threat to Datang.

This can also understand why tea, like salt and iron, has become a strategic material, and it is definitely not included in the trade between Datang and the various tribes of the Hu nationality.

All the barbarian chiefs in the camp showed disappointment...

Even for the chiefs on the grassland, it is still difficult to drink tea with enthusiasm.

Fang Jun looked at the disappointed expressions of everyone with a smile, and said with a smile: "But you don't have to be disappointed. Even though tea is a strategic resource, it is controlled by the imperial court and private sales and trade are not allowed, but it is not restricted by the imperial law for the chiefs to drink for themselves. In the end, the big deal is that I don’t charge money and give some to you every year, and the Emperor of Tang Dynasty won’t care about it.”
