Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 165 The Surprised Khitan Man
"Thank you, Dudu, thank you, Dudu." Mohui couldn't be more moved, knowing that the eight tribes of Khitan only have a total population of 30 and [-] stone fish and meat, one can imagine how much kindness this is.

"In the past, the Khitan had many things that were wronged by the Tang Dynasty. The governor did not think it was disobedient. It really made us feel ashamed. From now on, the whole Khitan family has obeyed the Tang Dynasty and obeyed the commander's orders. If there is any disobedience, the wolf god will hate it." Mohui pulled out a small knife from his waist, cut his palm and swore.

Regardless of whether he was sincere or not, Feng Daiwen was very happy, and quickly asked the guards to bring medicinal materials, bandaged his hands, sat down with Mohui and said: "It is really a great thing for the two clans that the patriarch can do this. From now on, Datang We are separated by a strip of water with Khitan, and we will prosper together.”

Mo met with Feng Daiwen to accept the kindness, and happily took two boxes from the attendant and said: "The governor is a life-saving item for the Khitan people. Even in cold weather, eating a small piece can keep you from starving to death for a few days. A person can hang himself for a few days with a piece of it."

Feng Daiwen heard that it was so miraculous, and quickly thanked him for the result. When he opened it, he was shocked. It turned out that there were two boxes of ginseng, the largest one was as thick as a baby's arm, and it was at least tens of thousands of years old. Thinking that it was eaten by the Khitan people, he couldn't help I am very distressed.

Feng Daiwen rolled his eyes and decided not to let the Khitan people starve anymore, so as not to spoil the good things, he said to Mohui: "Thank you patriarch, this thing is precious, so I will be disrespectful, but I can't just get the benefits, I have a It is suggested that the patriarch can think about it."

"Please tell me, Commander!" Mo Hui said respectfully.

Feng Daiwen thought about it and said: "Liaodong used to be the place where you live now. The winter was extremely cold. Why don't you join the Tang Dynasty and become the Khitan clan of the Tang Dynasty? I will protect you. The Tang Dynasty will not interfere with your internal issues. .”

"The Tang Dynasty also promises to treat you equally with the people of the Tang Dynasty, and enjoy the same treatment as the people of the Tang Dynasty. Before you develop, you will not collect taxes. You can go and see the General Zhishisili who has taken refuge in the Tang Dynasty. They The tribe is now living in great abundance."

"This is a big matter, let me go back and discuss it, and give the governor an answer." Mohui said with a serious expression.

"Of course, as long as the nobles agree, the Holy Majesty will issue a decree to announce to the whole country that the Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. You don't have to worry about the Tang Dynasty going back on its word. To express your sincerity, I can make the decision and send you a batch of cold clothes and porcelain to help you. Get through the cold winter." Feng Daiwen said generously.

Anyway, there will be a lot of cotton picked this year, and there is no need to go out in winter, so it is not a big deal to support a batch. Porcelain is even simpler. It is just a few wages, but it is a good thing for Khitan.

Needless to say, cotton clothes to keep out the cold. Porcelain and pottery are used to hold food, which can preserve more and last longer, and Datang’s porcelain is more exquisite and durable. Don’t worry about the pottery pots they burned themselves, which will be broken with a little force.

Mo Hui showed a sincere smile and said happily: "In any case, thank you Governor, I will try my best to persuade the elders in the clan to facilitate this matter."

"Okay, stay a little longer and see how powerful and rich the Tang Dynasty is, and you will make the right decision." Feng Daiwen invited with a smile on his face.

"Haha, don't bother me so much. Everything is at the discretion of the governor." Mohui originally wanted to investigate the purpose of Datang, but when he heard Feng Daiwen say this, he hit it off and agreed with a hearty smile.

Next, Feng Daiwen hosted a banquet in honor of Khitan's group, and then asked the guards to arrange for them to rest, and took them to the seaside to have a look when they set off tomorrow.

…………

"This, such a big warship!!" Feng Daiwen brought his family and the Khitan people to the seaside the next day. Mo Hui saw the boats driving to the rudimentary pier, said dumbfounded, and followed him all the way. The Khitan attendants who got up were also stunned.

As a nation that relies on mountains, I have seen such huge ships there, and it is good to see Goguryeo's fishing boats occasionally.

Feng Daiwen said with a smile: "This is just Datang's fishing boat."

"Fishing boat?" Mohui looked at Feng Daiwen in disbelief and asked.

Feng Daiwen smiled without saying a word, motioning him to continue watching.

Then Mohui saw an even more astonishing scene. Dozens of fishing boats mentioned by Feng Dawen really started to fish, and not just a little bit, they kept moving down for an entire hour.

Visually, thousands of people are constantly busy, sorting and selecting the lively fish, killing the fish with a knife sharper than the warriors in the tribe, breaking open, piled up like a mountain of fish heads, internal organs, and moving them to a distance for feeding Those pigs in captivity.

Farther away, it is densely covered with dried fish meat. When you walk in, you can see that all the fish are covered with salt that is usually reluctant to put in. The dried fish meat is put into the box, and some folks are rushing to fill it with fish meat. The carriage headed for the distance.

Feng Daiwen also looked at the orderly crowd and was very satisfied. The children of the aristocratic family are indeed extraordinary, and he can be a small official if he just pulls out one.

"Captain!" Zheng Yong, who was supervising the construction of the village, saw Feng Daiwen saluting, and turned a blind eye to the Khitan people on one side. This is the arrogance of the people of the Tang Dynasty. They feel superior to all other races.

In Chang'an City, even a beggar would not beg for money from a foreigner. If a foreigner dared to give alms, the light one would throw away the copper coins and dismiss them, and the serious one would think that the foreigner insulted him and would fight desperately. In the end, Chang'an Guards will also think they are doing the right thing.

In fact, at this time, Confucianism had not been castrated so badly by later generations. Although Dong Zhongshu proposed the divine right of the king, he only supported the royal rule, and the main idea was the Spring and Autumn Period.

Advocating self-cultivation, the six arts of a gentleman, because of the integration of Mohist thought, the same will be happy and kind, and these thoughts have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after hundreds of years.

In addition, Confucianism itself believes that the Central Plains is China and the center of the world, and they look down on barbarians at all. Even the remote places in the Tang Dynasty are barbarians, let alone foreigners.

Feng Daiwen talked with Zheng Yong for a while to get acquainted, expressed his satisfaction, and explained that he would leave soon and start planting new agriculture not far away.

Zheng Yong said that he understood, and then walked away, without paying any attention to the Mohui group during the whole process.

Mohui didn't take it seriously, and after Zheng Yong left, he sighed: "I know Datang is rich, but I didn't expect Datang to be so rich." After speaking, he looked distressed at the thick salt smeared on the fish.

Feng Daiwen naturally saw Mohui's gaze and explained: "For the people of the Tang Dynasty, this salt is quite cheap, but the price is slightly higher when sold to foreigners. It's just that they don't make much money now, so there are few people who are willing to transport salt and sell it."

Mo would know that Feng Daiwen was tempting him, but he couldn't help it. To be honest, he was very tempted.
