Chapter 293: Morale is like a rainbow
"We're here to give a gift!" Li Ting smiled: "Come and give a big gift to Your Majesty." ”
"Hehe, now that the relationship has been opened up by itself, you can reach out to the front of the emperor without my help. Not bad. What kind of gift? Looking at these two of his own generals, he gave a punch to each of them, and hugged them with a smile, and the people who help him make money must be warmer.
"When the army went east, I heard that Liaodong was bitterly cold, and the roads were often closed by heavy snow, and the soldiers had no warm clothing. Last time, you said that cotton clothes have the best effect on keeping out the cold, so this time you donated 3,000 sets of cotton clothes and shoes to Your Majesty to see how effective it is. If the effect is good, the order for this military uniform will be ours in the future. Besides, when these soldiers go home, they will be comfortable in our cotton clothes, and they will sell well in the market at that time, haha. ”
Li Dongsheng just likes their hard work, which is the driving force for human progress. Without waiting to rely on self-reliance, he nodded and said, "Yes, even if it shows its loyalty to His Majesty, it also makes publicity." There's really nothing wrong with handing over this business to you. ”
Li Dongsheng also had to go to the emperor and ask them to wait for him at the inn. Wait for him to come out and get together again. It's a pity that he regards himself too seriously, the army travels, and all kinds of things are complicated, and Li Shimin is too busy to have time to see him. I had to go to Li Ji to report it, and then I went back to the inn and waited for the notice, as for the barracks, I won't go now, a group of men are messy, and he doesn't want to recall the painful life.
In the evening, I had a party with Li Tingmu Zhonghai and them, and learned about the current scale of business, and now Xiaoju is in charge of the family's business accounts, Li Dongsheng doesn't bother to ask, anyway, he knows that he is making money, and Li Dongsheng really doesn't care how much he makes.
"Master Hou, do you know? Our cotton cloth sells so well! Mu Zhonghai looked at the nobleman in front of him, this is the God of Wealth given to him by God, he used to think that the title of the richest man in the Western Regions was the pinnacle of his life, who knew that he would understand when he contacted him, this is the starting point of life.
Through the agent of perfume and other products in the Western Regions, he earned a lot of gold and silver, and also gained a great reputation, and he was a famous figure among the kings and nobles of various countries. It's all the result of believing in Him. When this Hou Ye let himself give up the agent of perfume and other goods in the Western Regions, he was so distressed and reluctant. But it turns out that he is right again, and now the business of cotton cloth is several times that of perfume, and no matter how good those goods are, they are only used by a few people, and cotton cloth is indispensable for everyone.
If it is extended further, what cotton shoes, cotton pants... The prospect makes him dizzy. In particular, the overseas trade specially pointed out by this Hou Ye is simply a boatload of cloth and a shipload of money back. Now the output is still not enough, now the Western Regions are full of cotton fields, those ordinary people in the Western Regions see him closer than their parents, if someone dares to touch their cotton fields, it will be desperate.
"Now we only hate that there are too few cotton fields, and after this year, it is estimated that the number of cotton plants in the Western Regions will be doubled, and our money will be doubled by then... Hehe, never thought the money would come so quickly. ”
"Money is just a number, you have to see the changes that cotton has brought to the Western Regions." Li Dongsheng said with a smile: "From now on, the countries of the Western Regions will no longer be able to do without the huge market of Datang, if there is no Datang, they will have no food, and their income will be reduced, and this kind of interest is the guarantee that binds them firmly to Datang." ”
Li Ting looked at Li Dongsheng who was speaking, he couldn't have imagined that his classmate would become a rich man in the Tang Dynasty like this, Master Hou, this change is too great, the son of a businessman of his own has also been brought by him to become a celebrity in the business world, and he has a high status in his own family, his brother who was afraid that he would divide the family property, now follows him every day, and wants to share some business to do, one of his decisions is tens of thousands of yuan, all of this is given by the person in front of him, and he will still stand firmly on his side in the future, and never waver.
Outside Luoyang City, the black oppressive army stood straight, the battle flag blown by the cold wind whirled, and with the sound of war drums, Li Shimin led a large group of people to the high platform built.
He didn't wear a dragon robe today, he wore a set of black armor with exquisite patterns and a dignified face. Looking at the rows of mighty and majestic divisions, my heart was surging.
Li Dongsheng hid behind a group of generals, Li Ji, the chief of the Liaodong Provincial March, and Zhang Liang, the general manager of the Pingyang Provincial March, stood in the front row, and then there were Niu Jinda, Cheng Yanjin, Li Daozong, Xue Wanche and other famous generals in the world, which shows that Li Shimin attached great importance to the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo, and the lion fought the rabbit with all his might.
Li Shimin didn't speak on the platform, and Li Ji came out and said loudly: "Today, my Tang Dynasty is ordered by heaven to crusade against Goguryeo and avenge my Han family's son. ”
This can be regarded as a departure ceremony with the characteristics of the Tang Dynasty, because he was afraid of Li Chunfeng's reputation, Li Dongsheng did not dare to contact him, but there are still various festivals, after a few years of seeing Li Chunfeng, this guy's ability to pretend to be forced is higher, a picture of fairy wind bones, very in line with the image of the master in the minds of the Tang people.
Wearing a cyan robe, his hair was tied up high, his long beard matched his thick eyebrows and big eyes, he held a peachwood sword in his right hand, and a sword trick in his left hand, and then after a while, a pile of yellow paper flew out of the cuffs, Li Chunfeng pointed with a peachwood sword, and those yellow papers burned out of thin air.
The straight soldiers standing below made a neat "ah" sound, and were shocked by this gorgeous shape, Li Chunfeng lifted the peachwood sword, and there was an extra white paper full of runes on it, he took the white paper down, and said something in his mouth for a while, and then turned around and knelt in front of Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, God has shown that this battle is unfavorable to our army Tang Daji, and the war is invincible!" ”
"Hahahaha!" Li Shimin's original solemn expression turned into joy, and he raised his arms and shouted: "God bless the Tang Dynasty, invincible!" ”
The soldiers below also shouted excitedly: "God bless the Tang Dynasty, invincible!" ”
Li Dongsheng saw Li Chunfeng sweat after stepping down, it is estimated that his psychological pressure is not small, this time is a show, what I want is to make those soldiers feel at ease, in fact, like Li Shimin, the generals on the stage know in their hearts that these are all fake, if Li Chunfeng says that the main culprit in this battle, there is no return, it is estimated that he will not survive tonight.
Li Dongsheng slipped to Li Chunfeng's side and said, "How did the white phosphorus used on the burning yellow paper, the white paper on the peachwood sword come out?" ”
Li Chunfeng was startled, and was relieved to see that it was Li Dongsheng: "Lantian Hou, see through it or not, this is for the morale of the army." Poor Dao can only be reluctantly done. ”
Li Dongsheng nodded, looking at the morale of the soldiers below, who were thunderous and laughing: "The first merit of this battle is you, the Taoist leader!" ”
Li Chunfeng sighed: "I am also a child of the Han family, there is only so much I can do, I hope they can go all the best, start victorious, and have fewer casualties!" ”
