Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 891 New Agreement
Liu Mu asked about the blanks filled in on the official document about the area of ​​Tang Fang.

Wen Luoda replied: "That's right, it's random."

"Okay." Liu Mu put the official document on the corner of the table. "I have received Mo Lizhi's sincerity, how should I thank you for this kindness?"

"Mo Lizhi heard that Prince Consort Xie Liu has a deep friendship with the Su family."

"En." Liu Mu nodded slightly, and said in his heart that it was true as Su Gazi said, the Goguryeo people didn't even know that Wa Island had become Fusang Road.

"The relationship between the Japanese royal family and the Baekje royal family, Mo Lizhi believes that it will affect the friendship between Tang and Goguryeo."

Liu Mu was slowly washing the tea, without any expression on his face, and naturally he couldn't speak a word.

Wen Luoda continued, "May I ask Concubine Liu to intervene?"

Liu Mu asked: "How to intervene?"

"By the end of this year, Baekje will send people to Tang Chang'an to pay tribute, and will also send people to the Wa royal family to give gifts. Can the Su family block the one going to the Wa royal family?"

After Wen Luoda finished speaking, she bowed and waited for Liu Mu's reaction.

Liu Mu asked: "Last year, did Baekje and the Wa royal family send any gifts?"

Wen Luoda replied: "Yes, Baekje sent two ships last winter. Both of them went to Yangzhou first. One ship went to Chang'an to pay tribute, and the other ship detoured to Hangzhou. After a lot of goods were exchanged for silk, they went to Yangzhou. Give a gift to the Japanese king."

Liu Mu was taken aback, luckily he didn't attack Japanese nobles last year, otherwise the secret would have been leaked.

I just stared at the north of Tamna Island, and did not check in detail the ships going from Jiangnan to Wa.Looks like it's time to change.

Not to mention the timing, Liu Mu said to Wen Luoda: "Then, what level do you think this matter should be done?"

"The foreign minister doesn't understand."

"It means to let the Baekje ship disappear without a sound, or pretend to be dead in a storm, or let the Su family take a stand. This is what the Su family did. Or, the Su family took people down. , Yuan Shi went to kill people."

Liu Mu's words are equivalent to agreeing to Yuan Gai Suwen's request.

It's just that there is no final plan on how to do it and to what extent.

Wen Luoda also made a decision on such a matter, so he could only talk back and ask for instructions.

Liu Mu said again: "I have another proposal. Many trees will be destroyed when mining, and I plan to buy these trees."

"These trees, Concubine Liu, feel free to use them. If they want to use them in other places, then according to the rules, a calculation should be made at the pier, and a standard should be established. It is good to pay the amount of money for the amount of wood on board. Mo Lizhi has already dealt with this matter. There is authorization for foreign ministers."

Hearing this, Liu Mu immediately said: "In this case, I will send someone to write an official document and send it to Pingcheng as soon as possible."

"The foreign minister will leave."

"Okay, tell Mo Lizhi (Yuan Gai Su Wen's official name), I will send my trusted guards to accompany Su Ga's family, and no matter how many boats from Baekje want to see the Wa royal family, I will block for him. I will make another request on this matter, and give me another [-] records of slave labor."

After Liu Mu made the request, Wen Luoda, who was about to leave, sat down again.

Wen Luoda heard from Yuan Gai Suwen that he hoped to have a career that was really worth investing in.

Since Liu Mu proposed to ask for someone, you can try it out.

Wen Luoda said: "Mo Lizhi has prepared [-] households for you, Concubine Liu. These are people who lived on the barren land before. Their land output can't even support themselves. The amount they can hand in every year is pitifully small. .If it is placed in a mine, it can add a touch to the friendship of Tang Min and Goguryeo."

"Very well, just speak up if you have anything to say."

Liu Mu never thought that his brain could be compared with these extremely cunning people, so Liu Mu always thought that the method he used was simple and direct.

Wen Luoda said: "Mo Lizhi is interested in investing in something that can make money."

"It's easy to say." Liu Mu smiled and poured a cup of tea into his mouth.

Wen Luoda hurriedly said, "I would like to ask Concubine Liu to give me advice on what business is better."

"Three businesses can be considered. First, I can send the hides from Yanzhou over, and find a place in Pingcheng or the surrounding area to tan the hides. The profit will be very good."

The fur business is a big profit, and the number of Goguryeo's leather is very small.

Shiwei, Heishui Mohe, and Khitan all have a large amount of fur goods, but their processing capacity is insufficient, and there are no big rivers where they are located, and the only streams they have can process fur goods in large quantities, and there will be no water downstream.

Wen Luoda felt her heart beating faster just by dealing with the skin.

Liu Mu said again: "The second item is the hemp weaving workshop. I will provide the hemp materials and weave clothes or sacks here."

Wen Luoda felt his mouth dry, this business was too attractive.

Liu Mu stretched out three fingers: "The Silla Pu family seized the steel cylinder workshop of the Jin family. Because the craftsmen fled, it has now become a very ordinary farm tool workshop. There is a huge demand for steel cylinders for cans in the peninsula. If If you have to rely on Datang for transportation, the cost will be too high."

"Liu Concubine, are you saying that you are going to rebuild the Steel Tube Workshop?"

"Yes." Liu Mu gave a very affirmative answer and said: "You go back and report, no matter which one you choose, it is easy to discuss. Then I will arrange the slave labor of [-] households, and when they arrive, there will naturally be someone in the mining area who will take care of them. .”

"Yes, yes, yes." Wen Luoda's tone was full of excitement, she stood up and saluted twice before leaving.

When Liu Mu was alone in the tea room, Liu Mu lifted the table.

When several guards came in to help clean it up, Liu Mu said, "Tell them, just say that I overturned the table. The reason is that last year Baekje sent people to meet the Wa royal family. I didn't know about it."

Who should be told? Liu Mu didn't say anything, just told them.

The guards immediately spread the news that Liu Mu had lifted the table.

In a day's time, Qiu Qianshi of Tsushima Island had already received the news. Hearing the news, Qiu Qianshi had one head and two big heads.

What happened before was Niu Jinda's fault. Datang didn't pay much attention to overturning old accounts, but after all, someone from Baekje entered Wa Island, and this matter was very troublesome.

Qiu Qianshi sent someone to deliver a letter to his old boss Qin Qiong, and at the same time personally led people to inspect the land defense area and coastal defense area of ​​Tsushima Island.In particular, I went to the two dry ports under my own management to take a tour.

Fukuoka, Kumamoto, Laizhou, etc. received the news one by one.

Ten days later, when Zhang Chuchen, who was planning to return to Chang'an, heard the news, he took advantage of the East China Sea military training days to bring all the spies from Wenyue Pavilion. The entire East China Sea was swept over.
