I'm about to become an immortal, do you want me to be a prince?

Chapter 347 Li Shimin, get out of the way, I'm going to start pretending!

Qixi State.

"Brother, a Turkic envoy asked to see him, saying that he was recommended by the county king."

In the government office of Qixi Prefecture, formerly Shule King City, Li Mu was working and suddenly heard that there was a Turkic envoy seeking to see him, and it was recommended by Li Simo, an old lunatic.

Li Mu raised his head and pondered for a while, then said, "Bring him in."

After all, Li Simo's face still has to be given. He has been a partner for many years, although this guy is more and more likely to join forces with Li Shimin on the same front to cheat him.

But the friendship is relatively solid, so you can't take his face off.

After a while, a strong and solid Turkic warrior was brought in.

"The little villain is...by the order of Master Ye Hu, to come to see Lord Changshi."

Li Mu glanced at him, it wasn't that this guy couldn't speak well because he was afraid, it was purely because his Chinese was a bit clumsy.

"Bo Bu sent you here, he must have something to ask for, let's talk about it."

The Turkic warrior took a deep breath, then sorted out his words, and replied respectfully, "Master Ye Hu heard that Master Chang Shi was looking for a woman, so he sent a villain... sent a villain to ask, yes... can you exchange slaves?" slave?"

"What the hell? Slave for slave?"

Li Mu couldn't turn his head around for a while, what kind of trick is this Turkic guy?

I've heard of bartering things, but what the hell is this slave-for-slave thing?

After some bumpy explanations, Li Mu finally understood what the Turkic guy meant.

It means that the Turkic people exchange female slaves with Li Mu for young and strong male slaves.

What the hell!

Li Mu couldn't find an adjective to describe his mood at this moment.

Maybe Sun Dog can barely describe his mood at the moment.

Especially when I heard that this crazy idea was given by the bastard Li Simo to those idiots of the Western Turks.

At this time, Rigou can no longer describe Li Mu's mood.

Nima, this is a dog day!

Li Mu waved his hand to let the Turkic envoy go down first, saying that he had to think about it.

After the Turkic envoy withdrew, Li Fengjie hurried over and asked, "Brother, is this Turkic barbarian cheating?"

"It's not that there are frauds. On the surface, they are now the dogs of the family. They have won a few games against the trash in Persia, but so what, they don't have enough troops to keep winning like this, so they need to replenish the source of troops. , I was tricked by Li Simo to do something like slave-for-slave."

"What does the county king mean? Is it an enemy?"

"Hehe, no, it's just an overt conspiracy to exchange slaves for slaves. It's just drinking doves to quench thirst and show off for a while. After all, it hurts the root. Now the Western Turks can only advance but not retreat. They have to continue to live , you have to move forward all the way, and there will be times when you can’t do it.”

After a pause, Li Mu continued, "If the enemy and we are evenly matched, the Western Turks may be able to use this to counterattack, but in the current situation, our army can go to the river to destroy them at any time, but they can only bite the bullet and continue westward until Exhausted."

"Then brother intends to agree to them?"

"Why not, there are fat sheep delivered to your door, and if you don't slaughter them, you won't slaughter them."

In Li Mu's view, this shit is a no-cost business, purely for profit, because the slaves he traded with the Turks can be transported from other battlefields, and it doesn't cost money at all. Can promote domestic demand.

Only with demand can we continue to expand the battlefield.

The Western Regions are so big, and the weak and small countries will sweep away a lot of them, and they will be very afraid.

Anyway, Tang Jun is like Kai Wushuang in the Western Regions.

Even Tang Jun didn't need to make a move, just a few thugs could suppress the audience.

Like the endorsement country like Bolu Xiangxiong, the folk righteous like "Taishangjiao", or Li Simo has a bunch of "militia regiments", any one of them can suppress most of the weak and small countries in the Western Regions .

Otherwise, you can get some indigenous people from Southeast Asia to make up for it.

Not to mention, Li Daoxing has been doing really well recently. It is said that the population trade at Guangzhou Port is very prosperous.

Thinking of Li Daoxing, Li Mu asked casually, "I heard that the imperial court is discussing the method of enclosing land, have you heard of it?"

"It seems that there is such a thing, but it is not sure yet."

The so-called "Law of Enclosure" is actually something derived from the previous "Great Tweet Order".

Just ask Lao Cui how powerful the "Great Tweet Order" is.

In response to the "Great Tweet Order", the imperial court planned to introduce the "Law of Enclosure" to ease the pain.

What is the "law of enclosure"?
To put it bluntly, it is to encourage those younger generations in the big family to go out and start a business.

Whether it is the Western Regions, Liaodong, Monan, or overseas, as long as you can lay down a territory, that territory is yours.

In order to preserve the complete inheritance of the family, big families usually give some start-up funds to those who are not the eldest son or the first son, so that they agree not to inherit the family business voluntarily, and then send them out to start a business.

Among them, the one with the least difficulty in starting a business and the greatest benefit must go overseas.

Because most overseas sites are unclaimed land, the difficulty is relatively small.

Sometimes you even just need to buy a boat and go out to sea to make a few waves. If you are lucky, you will come across a piece of unclaimed land, and then you just need to go ashore and build some foundation on it, whether it is planting a few vegetables and raising a few. Just a chicken, or build a latrine or something, and then build a fence to enclose the land, and then you can go to the government to register the property rights.

So easy!

Therefore, Li Daoxing can be said to have taken advantage of the imperial court's policies recently, and Annan's career has gone smoothly.

Even Li Mu's shipyard business is booming day by day.

"In addition to the land enclosure order, it is said that His Majesty seems to be preparing for Fengchan Taishan."

"Hehe, based on what I know about Lao Li, he probably not only wants to enshrine Chan Taishan, but he might even have to conquest himself."

"cough cough"

Seeing that Li Mu was so rebellious, Li Fengjie called the emperor Lao Li, and immediately couldn't help coughing, reminding Li Mu to pay attention.

"What are you coughing, Ann, there are no outsiders here."

Li Fengzhang had an embarrassed expression on his face, wishing he didn't hear anything.

So quickly changed the subject.

"Where does that brother think His Majesty will conquer?"

"It's either Monan or Liaodong, where else can it be? You won't come to the Western Regions to eat sand with us, right?"

Smiling, Li Mu continued, "Xi people, Khitan people, Goguryeo people, these are all diehards who have no ability to resist, and they can't be better used to recruit and pretend to be coercive."

Li Fengzhang: "."

"Wait a little longer, there will probably be news from Luoyang soon."

"Then isn't Your Majesty afraid that the family will take the opportunity to counterattack?"

"I'm so afraid. The current population of money and food, the emperor directly dumped the five surnames and Qiwang by several blocks. This year's tax alone, the emperor's side may have exceeded [-] million. What counterattack will the five surnames and Qiwang take? Take the lead?"

"hiss--"

What is the concept of breaking [-] million?
As a military general, Li Fengjie hadn't paid much attention to the country's taxation issues, but when he heard it suddenly, it exceeded [-] million, which was really shocking.

He took several breaths of cold air.

"So, do you know why the emperor is so anxious to go to Mount Tai to pretend to be tough?"

Li Fengzhang: "."
