My wife is Wu Zetian

Li Siwen covered his head, feeling depressed.

Brother Li is becoming more and more violent, and his little fists are becoming more powerful.

I really don't know how her small body can explode with such power.

"This is a lesson to you. If you don't listen to me, you dare to go to sea privately.

Regardless of whether you live or die, all your money with me will be confiscated. "

After glaring at Li Siwen, Li Yanran also issued her own threat.

"Brother Li, can we stop doing this? If I don't want to go, I won't go. You always deduct my money. You are too authoritarian!"

Li Siwen was also frightened now. Even he didn't know how much property he had in Li Yanran's.

But he still has 10,000 + [-] yuan. If this is confiscated, he will be in trouble.

"It's good to know. You can go to Pei Xinqi later and tell him to postpone the development of canal boats and gather all efforts to develop sea-going ships.

You must build me the strongest ships. I will use these ships to smash open the gate of Japan and open the way for the empire. "

Originally, Li Yanran felt that shipping could be postponed later, but now it seems that shipping must be prioritized.

The most important thing for trading with Japan is strong ships and experienced sailors.

These will be left to Pei Xinqi.

"Here!"

Li Siwen saluted and left directly.

"Come in, eavesdropping outside all the time, this is not what a scholar should do!"

As soon as Li Siwen left, Li Yanran also looked out the window.

"Your Highness, it was not Di Renjie who wanted to eavesdrop, but he happened to be passing by!"

When Di Renjie entered the room, he also scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Okay, you have listened, but you can't listen in vain. Tell me what you think."

Li Yanran waved her hand, signaling Di Renjie not to be more polite.

"Your Highness, I think you are right. Although Japan is a small country, it must be guarded against.

The so-called plan for a rainy day is exactly the case now.

The Japanese country was poor, and the wealth of the Tang Dynasty was unimaginable to them, so they had to guard against such evil neighbors. "

Di Renjie is not a pedantic person, on the contrary, he is also very far-sighted.

He understands what Li Yanran is thinking very well.

If I were a native of Japan, I would be salivating over the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

If Li Yanran hadn't brought it up, he would have really underestimated that it was a barbarian land.

"It's good that you understand, but Datang!"

Li Yanran sighed. It's not that no one in the entire Tang Dynasty had foresight, but that the Japanese country pretended to be too good.

Such are the limitations of the times.

"Your Highness, the Tang Dynasty is strong and powerful, and the Japanese countries are not enough to cause trouble.

Besides, since you are already on guard, tell His Majesty more when the time comes, it will be very easy to capture Japan! "

Seeing Li Yanran sighing, Di Renjie also quickly spoke to express relief.

Compared with the Tang Dynasty, the Japanese country was more than a step behind. Even if this evil neighbor suddenly attacked, the Tang Dynasty could deal with it.

But there is no need to be too unfounded.

"Well, you're right."

Li Yanran nodded. Without his intervention, the Tang Dynasty could defeat the Japanese in a single battle at Baijiangkou.

I really think too much.

"Your Highness, Luoyang is now on the right track, and the water transport of Luohe River has returned to its previous prosperity. Is it time for you to return to Chang'an?"

Di Renjie saluted Li Yanran again and urged him to return to Chang'an quickly.

"You said this again, my affairs here are not over yet, I will go back when it's time to go back!"

Li Yanran also had her head trembling, why did she bring this matter up again.

That's really weird. You really want me to go back to Chang'an right away?

Or are you saying that you don’t want to stay in Luoyang anymore?
"Your Highness, as a princess of the Tang Dynasty, you must not leave the fiefdom privately. If those officials and censors find out about it, will you have to make a big fuss in the Jinluan Palace?"

Di Renjie was depressed, what do you mean it's not over yet.

You just see how new this place is and want to play for two more days.

As long as you are not a princess, it is up to you.

"Who said I left the fiefdom privately? I came here under orders. Anyone who dares to chew on his tongue will naturally be given a thumbs-up by his father."

Li Yanran smiled disdainfully, she was here to make money for her father, no one dared to talk nonsense.

It would be weird if my father didn't give them a big mouth.

Moreover, now she has captured people from four major aristocratic families. For this credit alone, her father will have to cover it for her.

"Cocoa!"

Di Renjie was also a little shy. Why didn't His Highness listen to anyone's advice at all?

I really don’t know what magic power this Luoyang has that keeps this princess who has seen the world lingering here.

"Okay, just do whatever you have to do, and leave me alone!"

Li Yanran stood up directly, tossed her sleeves and left, leaving Di Renjie alone in a mess.

Time passed little by little, and the battle for Luohe also quietly began. Previously, the boatmen were afraid of the Sanhe Gang and could only dig the bottom of the bowl under their hands.

Now that the Sanhe Gang has been wiped out, their little minds have become more active.I began to contact those companies privately, hoping to take over their transportation work at a lower price.

At first, those merchant houses gave the goods to them for transportation because of the relatively cheap freight. However, when the shippers actually transported the goods, they realized that this was not the case.

It turns out that all the big boats on the Luo River were monopolized by the Sanhe Gang. Even if the boat owners could get business, they were somewhat powerless.

Their boats can transport too little cargo at a time. Small trading houses are fine, but big trading houses like Lin Ling have problems.

The other party's transportation capacity cannot meet his needs at all. Often, Zhang Ming needs several or even dozens of small ships to transport goods that can be transported by just one ship.

Especially those bulk goods that the boat simply cannot hold.

Therefore, they can only continue to cooperate with Datong Logistics, even if the freight is slightly higher.

As Li Yanran said, time is money to those merchants, and these are inevitable.

Those small boat owners were not stupid either. Large ships were too expensive for them to buy on their own, so they shared a share with several companies and began to order large cargo ships from shipyards.

But when they went to the shipyard to inquire, they discovered that the orders for these shipyards would be scheduled for three months at the latest.

This made them dumbfounded.

I originally thought that the Sanhe Gang was wiped out and good times were coming for me, but in the end this was the result.

As a result, most shipowners accepted their fate, gave up large trading houses, and began to specialize in small and scattered transportation work.

Since then, shipping on the Luohe River has also been divided. Zhang Minggu's Datong Logistics controls the transportation of all large chambers of commerce, and the leftovers are handed over to the hands of small boatmen.

Of course, some people refused to admit defeat and began to go to wealthy places like Yangzhou to buy ships, hoping to get a piece of the pie from Datong Logistics.

But what they don't know is that it's still just Li Yanran's transition period, and they really have to wait until those [-]-stone cargo ships designed by Pei Xinqi enter the river.

By then, Datong Logistics will really have no rivals above Luohe.

More than a dozen people on fast horses stopped directly outside Li Ji's British public hospital. Seeing the other party's appearance, the nursing home at the door immediately became alert.

"This is the British Public Courtyard. If nothing happens to you, evacuate immediately!"

"I have something important to do with Special Envoy Li Siwen. Please go over and report it quickly!"

The knight dismounted and directly stated his purpose.

"Looking for Special Envoy Li? Wait!"

Hearing that the other party knew the identity of his young husband, the nurse at the door did not dare to neglect and hurried in to report.

"Looking for me? Let someone come in!"

Hearing this, Li Siwen was also stunned for a moment.

Although since his identity was exposed, many people have come to see him, but none of them dare to make such a big show of it.

"Here!"

The guardian left and came to the door to salute the knight.

"My young master, please come in."

"Ok!"

The knight flicked his cloak and followed the guardian directly in.

"You just want to see me?"

Looking at the person in front of him, Li Siwen also frowned.

This man looked like a member of the military at first glance, and his whole body exuded a chilling air.

But it seems that apart from my father's old team, I have no contact with other members of the military.

"Where is Princess Lishan?"

Glancing at Li Siwen, the knight was also a little confused.

Wasn't it said that Princess Lishan was in the British Public Courtyard?
Why can't I see anyone?
"Who are you? How dare you yell at me? Who told you that Princess Lishan is here!"

Upon hearing the knight's words, Li Siwen stood up immediately, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

Li Yanran is the biggest secret here. If this is revealed, he is really afraid that someone will have any thoughts.

If something goes wrong with Li Yanran, even if he is a nine-headed insect, his head is not enough to chop off.

"Li Siwen accepted the order and asked Princess Lishan to come over quickly."

The knight took out the gold medal in his arms and shouted at Li Siwen.

Li Siwen was excited when he saw the gold medal.

He was very familiar with this gold medal. Li Yanran had stolen it several times before, so it would be strange if he wasn't familiar with it.

"I'll go ask Princess Lishan right away."

Li Siwen said that and ran away, "My dear princess, I have sent someone here."

"What? My father's people have arrived?"

Li Yanran was also dumbfounded when she heard Li Siwen's words.

Why did my father, who was so good, send someone here? Could it be that the Dongchuang incident happened and my mother knew about my private trip to Luoyang?
Is he coming here now to summon him back to Chang'an?

"That's right, Brother Li, hurry up and meet someone with me!"

Li Siwen nodded frantically. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for the emperor to send someone here. His little heart was beating loudly.

"If I don't go, just say that I went out to play. I can just tell you if I have anything."

Li Yanran also felt guilty. Since she was afraid, she should leave this to Li Siwen.

Friends are meant to be betrayed, right? It’s time to test you at the critical moment.

"Brother Li, you can't do this.

Your Majesty's people have directly named you and want to see you. This burden is too heavy and I'm afraid I can't bear it! "
