Khurban brewed for a moment, looked towards Li An, opened the mouth and said: “Minister Li, I came to Chang’an City this time. In addition to being instructed to give gifts to Minister Li, there is an important task, which is related to railways. thing.”

“Railway thing? You Kingdom of Shi are also interested in railway?”

Li An pretends to be confused and poses with a high posture.

Khurban’s expression was tense, opened the mouth and said: “Do not hide the Minister Li, the railway is very important to our Kingdom of Shi, our Kingdom of Shi’s 100 surname is the best at doing business, and as long as the railway passes through our Kingdom of Shi, we In order to do business better, the railway is very important to our Kingdom of Shi. From the king to the 100 surname, everyone understands this. “

“Oh, it turns out that you Kingdom of Shi people value railways so much! However, Your Majesty and the ministers are more inclined to repair the South Line, go south from Shule County, pass the Tarim Basin, and enter the Tocharian District. Then, you are in the rivers. Work with the Tocharian countries to build a criss-crossed railway between you. “

Li An said.

“What, do you want to repair the South Line? How can this be done.”

Khurban was very nervous and said quickly: “Minister Li, the south line passes through Tarim Basin, the terrain is meandering, and the construction of the railway is very difficult. The north line should be built.”

Li An saw Khurban anxiously, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, opened the mouth and said: “But the North Line is not easy to build! The terrain of Badaling is dangerous and not so well built. Moreover, according to this official observation, Your Majesty means It seems that it is necessary to repair the South Line. After the South Line is repaired, another 7-8 years will be needed to repair the North Line. When the time comes, you Kingdom of Shi will naturally get on the train. “

Khurban hearing this anxious, nervously said: “Minister Li, is there no room for maneuver?”

“Your Majesty hasn’t made up her mind yet, there is still room for maneuver, but no matter whether you build the South Line first or the North Line first, for me Great Tang, simply does not make much difference, Your Majesty is more concerned about repairing That line is more beneficial to Great Tang, and from the current situation, it seems that the South Line is built first, and the benefits are even greater! “

Li An said, letting Khurban’s mood be greatly relieved, and also very curious. Why did Great Tang build the southern route first, and the benefits he gained were greater?

“Minister Li, I still understand the situation of the South and North Lines. The cost of building the South Line of the Great Tang is definitely much larger than that of the North Line. It is more cost-effective to build the North Line and spend less. Correct.”

Khurban comes from the west, and naturally knows the situation in the west of the Great Tang.

“Haha! Khurban, you are right. The cost of repairing the South Line is indeed higher. When Your Majesty first started, it was more inclined to repair the North Line, but the Tocharian countries also understand this, so they are right Great Tang made great concessions and made Your Majesty quite tempted, but your countries in the river did not have this kind of expression. Therefore, Your Majesty’s mind has changed and he is more inclined to repair the South Line. “

Li An said.

“The Tocharian countries have made great concessions. How big is the concession that actually makes Great Tang Emperor tempted.”

Khurban asked quickly.

As Emissary of Kingdom of Shi, he is very concerned about this issue. For so many days, he has never heard of any agreement between the Tocharian countries and the Great Tang Empire.

Li An thought for a moment, opened the mouth and said: “The Tocharian nations have agreed to Your Majesty. The railway to the Tocharian nations is all owned by Great Tang. The places they pass by are the land of Great Tang, said Simpler, the distance along the 2 sides of the railway line 3 miles each belongs to the Great Tang. All the benefits of the railway operation are also from the Great Tang Empire. They must not have any intervention, and they will provide it for free. A lot of manpower has helped the Great Tang Empire build the railway. The Great Tang can also station troops along the railway line. Khurban, do you think this condition is very attractive? “

After looking towards Khurban, I found that Khurban’s complex ashen seems to have a lot of sorrow.

“Minister Li, you wouldn’t be kidding! How could the Tocharian countries make such a big concession, impossible, this is an impossible thing.”

Khurban shook his head again and again. He felt that the concession Li An had said was too great. The land along the 2nd side of the rail track 3 mile each was the land of the Great Tang. This is a proper traitor! As a result, they will lose a lot of rights and interests, and the Great Tang Empire will get great benefits.

However, thinking about it the other way around, Khurban seemed to understand something. He suddenly felt that something might happen. After all, as long as Great Tang put the railway to the Tocharian countries first, then Tocharian District would replace the land trade in the river. The location of the station has greatly benefited the economy. In this way, even if no profit is obtained in the railway, even a small amount of land is lost. When the benefit is obtained, it is still very huge.

Although later generations are regarded as extremely important state-owned resources, they are sacred and inviolable. However, in the era of Great Tang, the surrounding weak countries did not have too strong territorial awareness. After all, their power is too weak Only when Great Tang admits which piece of land is theirs, they can legally own it. Otherwise, even if you think that the land of the whole world is yours, what is the point of not having the strength to defend it?

Moreover, in the final analysis, land is also a matter of interests. Land can contain minerals and produce crops. Even, it can provide a strategic buffer for an empire. In short, land can get a lot of benefits, but if a small amount of land is lost, it can be exchanged for greater So, what is wrong with it?

For the small country in the Tocharian District, there is the possibility of losing land at any time. As long as the Great Tang Empire needs it, they can be conquered at any time. Therefore, losing part of the land and giving it to the Great Tang Empire, not at all, what ’s wrong, and, yes In the way of losing land and part of the benefits, let Great Tang take the lead in repairing the railway to where they are, so that they can replace the countries in the river and become a transit point for East-West trade. In this way, what they get The benefits are always greater than the losses. For the people of small countries who value the benefits, they make a lot of money.

Once the Tocharian countries gain the status of the East-West trade transit station, their economic strength will inevitably be greatly enhanced. Similarly, other strengths will also be strengthened, and along the Great Tang Garrison Railway, Hezhong The nations did not dare to provoke incidents at will, otherwise, they would not be able to get along with the Great Tang Empire, and as a result, the nations in the river would completely lose their status as a transit point for East-West trade, thereby losing huge economic benefits.

Aware of the seriousness of the problem, Khurban began to get nervous again. When he went to Chang’an City, the king had given him a death order. He must try his best to let the Great Tang’s railway take the north line into the river. The land, and also through Talas, the capital city of the Kingdom of Shi.

This is the king ’s death order. If Khurban cannot finish it, it will be difficult to explain after going back, but the king gave him the condition that money Beauty can be sent casually, not at all said that it can be sent to the territory, so that the entire railway system belongs to the Great Tang. If he dared to make such a condition silently, the king would only be angry.

But the current situation is already here. If you don’t spit out some blood and give all the benefits of land and railway to Great Tang, they really can’t compete with the Tocharian countries.

Seeing Khurban’s nervous expression, Li An smiled easily, opened the mouth and said: “Khurban, my friend, how could I lie to you, Your Majesty told me the conditions of Tocharian countries in front of me I asked if there would be any technical difficulties in repairing the South Line. Of course, I am more inclined to repair the North Line, but the conditions developed by the Tocharian countries are too tempting. Your Majesty has been a little bit emotional, but it has not been determined yet. If your countries in the river can give the same conditions, Your Majesty will definitely change his mind. After all, it is easier to repair the North Line. “

After looking towards Khurban, observe Khurban’s expression.

Khurban hearing this, embarrassed, opened the mouth and said: “Minister Li, this thing, I really ca n’t do it. Our king really did n’t think that the Tocharian nations would actually open such a condition, this The condition is too high, it cannot be lowered. “

“Khurban, the Tocharian countries have already set such conditions, and Your Majesty is also very tempted. You should go back to Kingdom of Shi and ask your king! But you only have half a month, half a month later , Your Majesty will decide which railway to build. “

Li An said, it’s an ultimatum. Anyway, the railway has now reached Anxi. As long as you go back and forth at the fastest speed, half a month is no problem.

“Half a month, is the time too tight, Minister Li, please tell Your Majesty, let Your Majesty not rush to make a decision, then return to Kingdom of Shi, and discuss the matter with the King.”

Khurban begged.

“Khurban, you don’t have to worry. Now that the railway has been connected, half a month back and forth is enough, you just have to work harder.”

Li An said with a smile.

The reason for not giving Khurban more time is to prevent long nights and dreams. By setting the railway line earlier, you can start construction earlier and control the land in the river earlier.

“Since that is the case, then go back here and prepare, Minister Li rests earlier.”

Khurban finished speaking, saluted Li An, and turned to leave.

Watching Khurban walk out of the gate of the other courtyard, Li An smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and then walked to the backyard, ready to enjoy Little Loli from King of Shi.

‘Mei’er, it’s very interesting to hear the name, but I don’t know the technology? ‘

Li An grinned, there was an unspeakable comfort in his heart.

In a restaurant in Chang’an City, Khurban sat in a small room with a bitter look on his face and came out of Li An’s other courtyard.

When he set off from Talas, he was full of confidence, thinking that his trip will definitely be very smooth. After all, Emperor provided him with a lot of money and Beauty, and he could buy a lot of great Tang dignitaries, but the progress of the matter was unexpected To his surprise, he never dreamed that Tocharian countries would put forward such attractive conditions, not hesitating to sell their land in exchange for the Great Tang railway line.

However, until this time, Khurban was not sure whether Li An said it was true or not. Although, he did not see any falseness in Li An ’s expression, the Tocharian countries are likely to do it for the benefit of the future He sold some territories, but he still had some doubts. After all, the conditions proposed by Tocharian were too surprising. Among them, Li An could not rule out his probability.

A cup of spicy wine, keep pouring into his mouth, maybe only in this way, his heart can be more comfortable, although the time is very tight, only half a month, but do n’t hurry, at least, he must first think clearly, things Is it true?

And while Khurban was drinking spicy wine, the person arranged by Li An was already in place in the private room next door, and he talked about the railway while drinking, but the sound was not loud or small, but it was guaranteed that Khurban next door could see If Khurban is interested, he needs to erect his ears and listen against the partition wall. After all, if the sound is too loud, it will cause Khurban to doubt.

“Zhao Langzhong, you can rest assured that as long as the Great Tang railway passes through our Kingdom of Feiniao, we can extend 5 miles to the left and right along the rail line. As the land of Great Tang, all the revenue from the railway operation is owned by Great Tang, our Kingdom of Feiniao ’s 100 surnames are willing to repair the railway by Great Tang. “

A voice rang next door.

“Relax, rest assured, Your Majesty is now inclined to repair the South Line, and the South Line is bound to pass through your Kingdom of Feiniao, but it is easier to repair the North Line. If the countries of the North Line have made the same request, Your Majesty may have to change her mind and repair the north line first. “

A man with an official voice said.

“The countries in the river will definitely not exceed our conditions. Your Majesty decided that the railroad would be repaired as soon as possible, and it would benefit the Great Tang and the 100 surnames of the various countries.”

“Relax, you must persuade Right Chancellor a lot, let Right Chancellor urge in front of Your Majesty, set the route earlier, as long as there is no accident, you will definitely pass through your Kingdom of Feiniao. Now. “

“Oh, then many thanks Zhao Langzhong, here is a little meaning, please also Zhao Langzhong smiled.”

“No no no, this is a lot of sorry.”

Another very false voice of excuses.

“Zhao Langzhong, you have said so many good things for our Kingdom of Feiniao, this meaning must be accepted, otherwise, you will look down upon our Kingdom of Feiniao.”

“Cough cough cough, how can this Official look down on Kingdom of Feiniao? Since the hospitality is difficult, this Official will be accepted. By the way, this Official and the official business have not been processed, so I will leave.”

“Zhao Langzhong walking slowly.”

“No delivery, no need to send.”

With the creak of the room door, Khurban next door completely froze. He overheared all the conversation. Except for a few words that were not clearly heard, most of the words were clearly heard, that is, Tocharian The great concessions of the countries are real, not false.
