Datang's strongest super god army

Chapter 1829
Chapter 1829
"With these middlemen earning the difference, the porcelain sold from Datang to the Western Regions and even Europe is naturally less."

Chen Qiao said with certainty:

"But in fact, it's not a lot. The last time the Black Dragon Army went out, they found a batch of porcelain and silk cloth under siege, and the amount was quite a lot!"

As for Chen Qiao's words, several people present also heard it.

For the people of Datang, the profit is actually small, but they need to sell more, so the smugglers from Datang to the Western Regions either have none or have a large amount.

Now we can temporarily crack down on smuggling in Datang, because the Western Regions are under martial law, and Datang does not know the real situation. When those bold middlemen come to Datang to contact vendors, I am afraid that even the Silk Road has already been opened. up.

"So, the opening of the Silk Road is imminent. Firstly, we can increase exchanges between the Western Regions and Europe, and strengthen the control of the situation there."

"Secondly, let the merchants of Datang also taste the benefits of Datang's expedition to the Western Regions, so as to transfer domestic pressure and grab gold and silver from the Western Regions and Europe, and Datang can also benefit from it."

When Chen Qiao said this, his eyes were a little red, and he said excitedly:
"As long as we set up a tax system and let the merchants in Datang trade their own porcelain and silk cloth, etc., we only need to ensure that the Silk Road is smooth and safe, and then we can lie down and collect taxes."

As for those permanent residences, of course they can be regarded as intermediate footholds, which can be used for temporary residence for traders, and secondly, they can also be used to garrison troops.

"Okay, I think it's so good!"

As soon as Chen Qiao finished speaking, Li Zhi stood up and said hello, making everyone present laugh.

They are princes, and there is no rule that princes cannot have business. Besides, this business can be considered to be facilitated by Datang and the Black Dragon Army, as long as they pay taxes.

For this kind of profiteering business, the princes have no intention of giving up.

"Actually, we can help promote this kind of business!"

Li Ke said with a smile.

Not only him, but also the other two princes. Although they don't have to worry about food and clothing, who would think they have less money?

And it's all free money, so there's no need to give up.

"In fact, we can also ask for food and other materials to cover the customs duties deducted from the hands of the traders. In this way, the time for Datang to recuperate can be reduced, and Datang can recover quickly."

After all, this national struggle, the expedition of the Black Dragon Army, and the flood in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have reduced Datang's national strength a lot. With this way of transferring economic pressure and seizing resources, Datang will soon be able to recover come over.

"Actually, I think this is a deal that kills three birds with one stone!"

Li Tai stood up and said that he was obsessed with merchants in the early days, and he was quite proficient in business. Coupled with his identity, he had to be more sensitive about it.

Chen Qiao and Li Zhi looked at each other and motioned him to speak out.

Li Tai didn't hide it either, instead he said openly:

"The first aspect is to let Datang recover earlier and pass on the pressure!"

"Secondly, the recovery of the Tang Dynasty can actually speed up the dispatch of troops to the Western Regions, more firmly control the throats of the Western Regions, and have a firmer control over your silk and the Silk Road!"

"In the third aspect, we can also strengthen our penetration into the Western Regions and Europe, and prepare for our Datang to enter the depths of the Western Regions and even Europe!"

Here we can see Li Tai's ambition, but it is not for Li Zhi, he analyzes it from the perspective of Datang, so Chen Qiao also maintains a sweet attitude towards this.

"very good!"

Chen Qiao applauded, because Li Tai considered these points from the perspective of the court of the Tang Dynasty, that is, from the perspective of Li Zhi, not from the perspective of the entire Tang Dynasty. It was more detailed than Chen Qiao, but Be decisive.

Li Zhi smiled and said:
"It seems that the Silk Road really needs to be opened up. This can't be postponed. I'll give instructions to the Ministry of Forces and the Ministry of Households to make them prepare quickly!"

Chen Qiao nodded and said:
"In terms of the Western Regions, although our Black Dragon Army has returned, our spies are still there, and our control over those countries can still be guaranteed."

"In this way, the opening and development of the Silk Road will be smoother!"

"Okay!" Li Zhi nodded with a smile, then stood up, picked up the teacup, and said with a smile:

"Then, I would like to congratulate our Great Tang for continuing to make it bigger and stronger, and to create greater glories!"

Ok?Why does this slogan feel so familiar?Chen Qiao was puzzled.

Regarding the Silk Road, Chen Qiao must have joined, otherwise, with so many people in Chen Shuai's residence, it would be impossible to expect to rely on their laurels or use their own meager salary.

Therefore, Chen Qiao naturally intends to take advantage of the convenience and seek some benefits for Chen Shuai's mansion.

In fact, everyone knows about this, but it has nothing to do with the laws of the Tang Dynasty, as long as this reasonable solution is written into the laws of the Tang Dynasty!

……

While Chen Qiao was still discussing in the palace, the actions of the Black Dragon Army in Chang'an did not decrease at all.

It's just that Brother Han, who just came out of the Black Dragon Army barracks, took over the handling of Chang'an's spy, because the Black Dragon Army's military affairs have been dealt with, and he can relax for a while.

However, there was someone who wouldn't let him relax, and that was Chen Qiao.

When Brother Han rode his horse into Chang'an, a group of Black Dragon Army officers and soldiers came in front of them. Looking at their attire, one could tell that they were the spies of the Black Dragon Army. Only in Chang'an can the spies of the Black Dragon Army be upright. The emergence of light.

"What's the matter?"

The black dragon army spies came from the front, and after passing the inspection of the grassroots guards in front, they finally approached Brother Han, who asked.

"Is there any gain?"

"Reporting to the young marshal, there are indeed some gains, the west city and the east city..."

"You don't have to tell me!" Brother Han waved his hand, and directly thought about what he said, saying:
"Although I am the young commander, it is not my turn to make the decision at this time. You don't have to tell me that you should be responsible to the commander!"

Brother Han's heart tightened. He always felt that nothing good would happen. He had just put down his military duties in the army, and now he had some free time. Wouldn't it be nice to go home and spend time with his wife and children? own behavior.

It has to be said that Brother Han is very similar to Chen Qiao in the area of ​​fishing. Both of them like leisure and neither like military affairs. They have instinctive thoughts about fishing.

Chen Qiao didn't like military affairs in his early years, but he was forced to do nothing. He could only let the Black Dragon Army become bigger and stronger, and then he could relax and fish with peace of mind after making great achievements.
