After Li Kuan's words were finished, the scene did not fall into a warm atmosphere.

On the contrary, it's a bit cold.

It's really a bit different from what everyone imagined.

"Take us to get rich?"

Chun Yunan, as the assassin of Dengzhou, is also the largest businessman in Dengzhou, so he naturally can't let it go on so coldly.

"That's right! Take everyone to get rich! ”

Li Kuan emphasized it again.

Chun Yu was embarrassed to feel that his brain was a little insufficient, and tried to ask, "Lord Wang, aren't you going to take a large army to Goguryeo this time?" Could it be that when you return triumphantly, you will stay in Dengzhou to call everyone and take you to explore new opportunities to get rich? ”

"Do you think that fighting a war costs money and can't make money?"

Isn't it?

I was embarrassed and wanted to say what was in my heart.

In the end, however, it was an awkward but polite smile.

Don't look at Chun Yu's family as a tyrant in Dengzhou, but in front of the Chu Wangfu, it is still not enough to see.

"Goguryeo is just across the street from Dengju, and everyone here should have some understanding of it. In addition to the familiar things such as ginseng and mink, the wealth accumulated by Goguryeo over hundreds of years is actually not a lot at all. ”

Goguryeo was officially founded in the second year of Jianzhao, that is, in 37 BC.

It continued to expand and reached its peak in the 6th century.

Especially in the years from the eighth year of the Great Cause to the tenth year of the Great Cause, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty made three expeditions to Goguryeo, and as a result, Goguryeo broke the army of the Sui Dynasty and left the huge amount of materials and a large number of craftsmen and soldiers carried by Yang Guang in Goguryeo.

has been accumulated for hundreds of years, and now there is Yang Guang, a pig teammate, to assist, so the construction of people's livelihood in Goguryeo has actually been prosperous in the past 20 years.

Otherwise, there would not have been the strength to build the Great Wall of more than 1,000 miles in Liaodong.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu is right. I have been to Goguryeo several times, although the common people of Goguryeo have a much worse life than our Datang people, and many people are still in a state of not having enough to eat; However, the nobles of Goguryeo actually had a good life, but all the luxury goods that our merchants transported in the past were quickly sold out. The most important thing is that there seems to be gold mines in Liaodong, and many nobles in Goguryeo have a lot of gold stored in their homes. ”

The shopkeeper Lu, who was engaged in overseas trade, couldn't help but stand up and echo.

"It is true that although the mining technology of Goguryeo is very poor, the amount of gold ore is really large; And not only do they have a lot of gold mines, but there seem to be a lot of iron ore and coal mines, but they don't know how to use them very well, so the scale of mining is not large. ”

Wang Xuance added on the side.

Although Li Kuan didn't discuss with him what to say about today's banquet, he probably guessed something.

"Your Royal Highness the King of Chu, do you mean that you want everyone to go to Goguryeo to mine deposits?"

I tried to ask.

Wealth is in danger, if the Tang Dynasty really defeats Goguryeo, he doesn't mind going to Goguryeo to get a handful.

Anyway, the slave hunting team under Chun Yu's family has long been infested in Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje and other places, even if there is no money from mining at that time, Chun Yu's family can make a fortune by other means.

"The matter of exploiting mineral deposits, I will talk about it later, and the opportunity to make a fortune that this king wants to talk to you about today is the supply of logistical supplies and the disposal of loot. After a while, the army will set off for Goguryeo, and when the time comes, we will completely destroy all the ships of Goguryeo, so that there will be no other forces on the water. If you are interested, you can transport the military supplies needed by the army to the designated location, and then bring back the loot.

You can rest assured that the price of military supplies, although it is sold at market price, the profit is average; But the loot you can take away at 20% of the market price. Of course, it was taken away from Goguryeo, not after the army was transported back to Dengzhou, you would come to the door and take it away. ”

In order to minimize the logistical pressure and minimize the viable forces of Goguryeo, Li Kuan was ready to mobilize all the forces of Dengju and let all the ships that could go to sea follow the army to eat a piece of the pie.

Anyway, as long as you don't go ashore casually and float in the water, there is no danger.

"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, can you be specific?"

Seeing that everyone's faces showed interested expressions, Chun Yu simply stood up and asked again.

……

Dengzhou is a lively city.

In the past few days, with the arrival of Li Kuan, this brand-new city has become more lively.

"Father, child, you are a broken fishing boat, although you can barely go to sea, why do you want to take risks with you?"

In a neighborhood in the southeast of Wendeng County, in an ordinary house, a woman with still charm is packing her things.

"Opportunity! Here's your chance! Haven't you heard it all? This time, as long as the ships that went to Goguryeo, they could follow behind the army and rob the Goguryeo people's property at will, and all the belongings only needed to pay 10% of the city tax when they returned! This kind of opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. ”

"However, you brothers, no matter how strong you are, can't fight so many Goguryeo people."

The woman was clearly worried about the safety of her man.

"You don't understand that! Anyone who went to Goguryeo could receive a big knife and a crossbow, and everyone went together, so they didn't have to be afraid of the Goguryeo people at all. Besides, isn't there a large army of the imperial court in front of you? We're just cleaning up the battlefield in the back and taking care of the Goguryeo people around us. ”

"That'...... Then you have to pay attention, if you can't do it, don't force it! ”

"Don't worry! I'm not stupid! ”

……

"Lord Wang, in addition to the ships of the City Sailor and the East China Sea Fishery, there are at least more than a hundred sea ships of various caravans, as well as hundreds of fishing boats following behind the army. As for the personnel, I estimate that there are more than 30,000 people. ”

At Wendeng Wharf, Li Kuan and Wang Xuance boarded a huge clipper ship.

"More than 30,000 people? So much? ”

Li Kuan was a little surprised, he didn't expect that there were so many darers.

"Lord Wang, if it weren't for the limited number of sea vessels, this number would have at least doubled! The people of Dengzhou basically rely on going to sea to live a good life, and they are bolder than ordinary people. This time, Lord Wang, you personally led the troops, and told those rich businessmen that you could make a fortune by following the army, and it was spread that there were naturally more people who wanted to get rich. ”

Wang Xuance is quite clear about what has happened in Dengzhou City in the past few days.

However, in his opinion, such a thing can only happen if it is sprayed on Li Kuan.

Otherwise, if another general says to a rich businessman to take you to make a fortune, it is estimated that no one will be willing to take the initiative to follow.
