Datang: Abducting the eldest princess at the beginning

Chapter 29 29. Do you understand what it means to enjoy life?
  "Why?" he asked in broken Chinese.

"Please tell me why?"

At the door, there was a tall and burly man wearing bright armor, with a brand new Tang Hengdao hanging on his waist.

He looked at the Tyuhun man with a cloth wrapped around his head and a red beard to protect him from the wind and sand.

I glanced at it and wow, this ring is actually inlaid with jade!

This is a big caravan, and very rich!
  The fat captain snorted coldly: "You don't have to go this way!"

"You can retreat from here and walk the Silk Road!"

That Tuguhun manly man could jump on the silk trade route, but Tuguhun's caravan did not dare to do so.

King Tuyuhun had robbed the trade routes for so long. If anyone found out that they were Tuyuhun's caravan, they would definitely be robbed.

"Our king robbed many people there, and we didn't dare to go there for fear of being retaliated against."

"But the king is the king, and we commoners are all doing business, so you can't use force, right?"

The chubby officer said proudly: "Your king wants to eat, why don't you ask for it from the emperor?"

"Why do you want to rob the people of Liangzhou?"

"you……"

His words left the people of the Tuyuhun tribe speechless.

The fat captain then said: "How about you return to Tubo first and then take the Yizhou trade route?"

"you you you……"

Is there any more humanity?

Instead of having an extra two thousand miles of land, it would be better to just pay 10% of the money to buy the road!
  The fat officer looked like he was not buying it, and said, "Otherwise, you can take the path of Jiepai Mountain."

The generals of Shanzhou were like this, and they did not hesitate to give their advice.

The deal is fair!

The officers and soldiers of Shanzhou have always been selfless and will never use force.

There is more than one way to go to Chang'an. You can take whatever way you want.

"Buy road money!"

The captain saw the Tuguhun businessman looking like he was about to cry without tears, and his heart was filled with energy!

"Come here, search carefully for me and estimate the price."

That's how you collect tolls, do a full inspection of their stuff, give their stuff a value. For a valuation of one thousand cash, one hundred cash must be paid.

No money? Then use goods to pay for it!
  In fact, the price is not expensive. You can earn more than 10% from a trip to Chang'an, Luoyang, and Jiangnan.

But barbarians are barbarians after all, how could they know such a thing.

Isn't this road construction free of charge?
  Li Lizhi and Leng Yue saw this scene at the city gate. When they saw the caravan and were about to cry, they burst out laughing.

"This damn governor really knows how to make money!"

"What does he make so much money for?"

The captain of the government office said: "Don't ask so many questions, go to the city head quickly!"

City Gate Tower, on the third floor terrace.

There are two parasols made of fabric and two beach chairs made by carpenters!
  Of course, this beach chair was something Jiang Chen only had in his previous life.

Between the two beach chairs, there is a small table filled with fruits, red wine, and juice!

Jiang Chen and Wu Yong, each dressed in silk and satin, were lying on the recliner, both of them had expressions of enjoyment on their faces.

"Sir, your experimental fields made of soil have sprouted. Do you want to go and have a look?"

Jiang Chen sat down on the ground, "Look at it, it grew on its own." "Use a little harder, a little harder."

He turned around and said to the girl from the best local brothel.

The girl smiled slightly, and her hands became stronger.

The warm sun, blocked by parasols, makes people feel very warm.

Comfortable, harmless to skin, and dehumidifying!
  The girl's little hands, with a hint of coolness, blended into the warm sunshine.

This feeling is so wonderful!

"grown ups!"

"Mingguang armor, Tang Hengdao, silver spear, horn bow, reinforced crossbow, these things are all very expensive."

“We’re still a long way from making enough money!”

Jiang Chen said lazily: "When will the iron ore and other raw materials from Tubo be shipped?"

"We'll be there in two days!"

Jiang Chen smiled proudly and said: "Don't worry, when these things arrive, we can implement mass production on the assembly line ourselves, and the cost will be lower."

"But, my lord, what does assembly line mean?"

Jiang Chen was so angry that he roared: "Sir, you are so big!"

"Do you know how to enjoy life?"

"You know, don't talk about work when you're enjoying life."

Wu Yong turned his head and glared at the girl: "Be gentle, are you pinching me?"

The woman smiled and said: "Wu Zhoucheng, I just want to remind you that the master is angry now."

Wu Yong shook his head and whispered: "But we are on duty now, on duty! We are not enjoying life!"

"Too much!"

"Too deceiving!"

"No, this is true, and he deserves to be punished!"

Li Lizhi stood on the steps, her eyes falling on the balcony at the end of the corridor. She bit her lip secretly, clenched her fists, and her chest heaved.

This scene was completely different from what Li Lizhi had imagined.

The terrace on the tower was originally prepared for the generals.

That is to lead the adults to stand on a high place and look into the distance. It is a very serious occasion!

She originally thought that the Sheriff, who was usually as lazy as a pig, but actually had outstanding abilities, treated people well, and was handsome, would suddenly change.

After the yamen servant showed her the way, she walked over on tiptoe to get a look at that figure.

The energetic young man wore a suit of iron armor, a sword at his waist, and a silver spear in his hand.

There was a strong wind at the border, and his cloak rustled.

That figure should be very handsome, very tall, very
  The governor of a state is just a normal position. During the war, he was a guard general!
  This was what Li Lizhi's father, the current emperor Li Shimin, told him.

Therefore, before escaping, she studied the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty. Especially the governor of a state.

If there are 40,000 or more households in a state, he will be the governor of Shangzhou in peacetime, and in war, he will be a general of the third rank Yunhui.

A state with a population of 20,000 to 40,000 households would serve as the governor of Zhongzhou during normal times, and during war, he would serve as a general of the fourth rank, Zhongwu.

Shanzhou has a population of less than 20,000. Jiang Chen is the governor of Xiazhou on weekdays. During the war, he was a strong military general under the fourth rank.

But the so-called wartime does not only refer to the time of fighting!
  From the moment he puts on the armor, he is a general, whether he is training in the military camp or patrolling the city walls.

She felt that no matter how lazy Jiang Chen was in ordinary times, when he was on duty, he would not be lazy anymore!
