Tang Dynasty good brother

Chapter 420 A country as powerful as Tang Dynasty
In Luoyang, Feng Chan's army will naturally stay here for two days on their return journey. Qin Hao has a property here, and it's not small, so naturally he won't crowd them into the palace.

This night, the people who came to offer condolences were almost lined up, as if the Demon Sect demon hadn't attempted an assassination attempt, but he was about to die himself.

After finally getting the correct answers from those who will visit in the future, Qin Hao can finally have a peaceful meal with his savior.

After chatting with Qin Hao, he found out that this person is called Mo Yu. He has been in Honglu Temple for more than ten years, and he has not even been an official.

During the dinner, Mo Yu was very nervous, his hands holding the chopsticks were trembling slightly, and he didn't know whether it was because of nervousness or excitement.

Generally speaking, the difference in status between the two is so great that Qin Hao doesn't really need to care about him too much. As far as he is concerned, a few casual words to help him are enough to make his life a few steps up. Even if he repays the grace of saving his life, Qin Hao doesn't think so. This guy doesn't have too many class thoughts in his mind, and he is extremely afraid of death. He is always polite to this little official, and the polite people are flattered I can't take it anymore.

"Brother Mo."

"Don't dare, sir, if you show your love, just call Lao Mo."

"That can't be done. I'm talking about personal friendship with you now, but I'm not talking about justice with you. You saved my life and are older than me. How can you not be called an elder brother?"

As he said that, Qin Hao personally clipped a Dongpo elbow that he 'invented' for him. After being a leader for such a long time, he still knows the basic tricks of buying people, not to mention that he was sincere.

When Mo Yu's mood finally stabilized, Qin Hao said with a smile, "Brother Mo, do you have plans for scientific research in the future?"

Mo Yu shook his head desolately and said: "No, I'm already thirty-six this year, and I don't have any foundation. If I really start from scratch, I'm afraid I won't be able to learn anything in ten or eight years. This official Heart, I'm dead."

Qin Hao nodded when he heard the words, and said, "That's what I mean too. If you want to be an official, I can arrange it, but at most it is eighth rank and ninth rank. Even if you are willing to go to Liaodong, it is at most around seventh rank, and I am afraid that there is no hope for promotion in the future.”

"Yes. I was not born with such a rich life. If I had been born 20 years earlier, I would have asked my father-in-law to reward me with an official position. Now, I don't want to. My father-in-law, why don't you reward me with some gold and silver? Come really."

"Hehe, you're straightforward. I want to arrange for you to join the Qing Gang. What do you think? Although the Qing Gang has been completely incorporated by the imperial court, I think it is not difficult to put someone in. It's just that the Qing Gang is a military post after all. If you can't go to battle and kill Enemy, the official career is actually limited, but you can still earn some money."

"Thank you for your arrangement, I will obey you."

"Okay, I heard from Ying Guogong that the squirrels have been active in the area of ​​Xining City recently. It seems that they plan to get a foot in the land besides the waterway. It happens that you can speak Persian. I will write you a recommendation." Next, let him arrange for you to be in charge of business communication and communication in Persia, if you behave well, it will not be a big problem to be promoted to hall master in two years, but you will go to Xining far away, I wonder if you are willing."

Mo Yu was overjoyed after hearing this. After the restructuring of the Qing Gang, the current hall master is a real captain, and who knows that the Qing Gang has the most oil and water. A hall master may not have much power, but his money is by no means better than the average General less.

"I am willing, I am willing, thank you for your arrangement, my lord, thank you for your arrangement."

After sending Mo Yu away, Li Xin said worriedly: "You want to support the trade between Persia and Datang?"

Qin Hao smiled and said: "Prince of Persia came with auspiciousness when he enshrined Zen, and now the world is spreading rumors, the saint also ordered me to handle this business with full authority, and take this matter as the top priority, I care about Persia The business is normal."

Li Xin said: "My old lady is not a lady in the middle of the night, don't use this kind of prevarication to me, how much trade can auspicious seeds support, even if you exchange gold, you can get a few taels of gold. It’s no secret that the Prince of Persia wants to replace the Sogdians as the largest transit country in the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty. I know he saved your life and you are very grateful to him, but the more you do this, the more you can’t hold any excuses! You Aren't you afraid that the censor will sue you?"

Qin Hao hugged Li Xin with a smile and said: "I do have the idea of ​​supporting Persia through trade, but I am not using it for private use, and this idea is not a day or two. I will do the same when I have an auspicious opportunity, besides establishing trade ties with them, we must have more substantive strategic relations, and even dispatch troops if necessary."

Li Xin was puzzled and said, "Why is this? I heard that Persia is in the far west, far away from the Tang Dynasty. If the two countries don't ride fast horses, it will take half a year to get from them to Chang'an." Time, for such a barbarian country, what use is it for Datang?"

Qin Hao laughed and said: "You just know one thing and don't know the other thing. Although Persia is far away, there is a lack of water all the year round. There is a large area of ​​desert, and there is a kind of dark oil under the ground, so that More than [-]% of the citizens of their country are merchants, and they are warriors with machetes. Their most elite camel cavalry is not even much worse than our Xuanjia cavalry, so such a trading partner is actually far more powerful than Sogdian People need to be big, and the Sogdians are too few after all, so they can’t do business very far, especially in the far west, even if they sell to the Sogdians, the Sogdians will sell them to the Persians, why? Let them take a slice of it? This is only economic, and what is more important in Persia is actually strategic."

"Strategy? What kind of strategy can Datang have with them?"

"Hehe, it is true that Datang is very powerful, but you have to know that Datang is not the only powerful country in the world. In the far west, there is a country called Dashi. Who is stronger, Dashi or Datang? It's not easy to judge, I feel like I'm awesome, if I don't really fight, God knows who is the real god."

Li Xin was obviously hearing about this country for the first time, and he couldn't help being surprised: "There is still a country as powerful as Datang? My God."

"Economically, it should be inferior to ours, but it's really hard to say in terms of military affairs, but now the expansion of Datang's power on land is already obvious. To the south, it's all mountains and plateaus, and it must be dominated by maritime trade, while to the north , it’s all ice and snow, land powers can only go west if they want to develop, and Dashi’s situation is actually similar to that of our Tang Dynasty. Now there are only a group of barbarians left in their west, and their focus is also on the east. Let’s go west , they go east, it won't take many years before we should meet."

"You mean, there must be a battle between Datang and this big food? But what does this have to do with Persia?"

"Because I want to place the battle in Persia."
