Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

Changsun Huan also heard his father say that at that time, his father also praised Prince Ji very much, saying that the young prince's methods were brilliant.

None of the great scholars in the court, including counselors like Fang Xuanling, expected that King Ji would turn Goguryeo upside down with just a small amount of money.

After using Goguryeo's own grain to acquire a wave of money, the people of Goguryeo were left in dire straits, with corpses littering the fields.

According to the news reported by the court at that time, the phenomenon of exchanging children and eating people and cannibalism had already occurred.

How miserable this is. If not for this, how could the Tang Dynasty occupy half of Goguryeo?

During the war, most of the Goguryeo soldiers did not have enough to eat, and were already at a disadvantage physically and mentally. They were not in the mood to fight.

His father once said that if King Ji was born in the Sui royal family, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty might have captured Goguryeo.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Goguryeo hated King Ji, which meant that they had no chance, otherwise they would have chopped King Ji into pieces and eaten him.

"Gentleman, although what we are doing is against the law, His Highness Prince Ji is also the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

He has great favors to merchants like us. Zhao feels inappropriate when you talk like this. "

Zhao Derong's expression changed and he said sternly to Goguryeo.

Prince Ji is the god of the business world. Many merchants have placed longevity plaques in their homes for Prince Ji, and some even worship him as the God of Wealth.

"Humph, Commander Zhao, you have already done this kind of business with me to benefit the enemy, and yet you still defend the prince of the Tang Dynasty. Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

The Goguryeo commander snorted coldly.

"So what, King Ji is a mythical figure in the merchant world of our Tang Dynasty. He led us to prosperity.

We just don’t allow others to taint it. If you don’t want to do this business, it doesn’t matter if you find someone. Anyway, it’s not me, the Tang Dynasty people, who will starve to death. "

Zhao Derong spoke forcefully and did not flinch at all.

"You..." Goguryeo was furious, pointing at Zhao Derong and speechless. Now that he had something to ask for, he was really afraid that Zhao Derong wouldn't do it.

Although there were countless merchants in the Tang Dynasty, there were not many who really dared to do grain business with them.

They used to cooperate with aristocratic families, but only a handful of food could reach them in Goguryeo, and they were all intercepted.

Later, they analyzed that someone must be secretly watching their noble family, so they intercepted them accurately.

After losing several batches of grain, people from the aristocratic family stopped transporting grain to Goguryeo.

Now Captain Zhao is the only one who dares to do business with them. Anyway, it is cash on delivery, and they have no losses.

"Okay, Commander Zhao, calm down. Don't say that anymore, sir. Prince Ji represents the royal family of the Tang Dynasty after all.

The royal family represents the Tang Dynasty and we cannot be disrespectful to the royal family.

Captain Zhao, business still needs to be done, don’t act on impulse, aren’t we all just trying to make money? "

Seeing the stalemate between the two sides, Changsun Huan suddenly felt bad and quickly persuaded him, saying that he still expected to make a fortune from this business.

Zhao Derong's face was full of anger, but after hearing Chang Sun Huan's words, his face changed several times and finally he suppressed his anger and sat down.

His move made the Goguryeo commander sitting opposite see it, and something seemed to appear in his eyes.

"Hmph, everything goes according to plan. Tomorrow Zhao will go south to prepare this food supply. Remember, there are 12 million grains in total.

If we don't get the money then, don't blame us for being unkind and risking beheading, isn't it just for the money? "

Zhao Derong snorted and reluctantly said to the Goguryeo envoy, but whether it was unintentional or intentional, he also glanced at Changsun Huan, as if asking.

The Goguryeo envoy also smiled slightly:

"Captain Zhao, don't worry. We Goguryeo people are the most trustworthy. As soon as the food arrives, the money will be settled immediately, whether it is copper coins, gold, or jewelry.

If the transaction goes well this time, we will ask for more quantity next time.

You should also know that the food this time is not enough for us to last for a long time. "

"Okay, don't think that we don't know your purpose. There shouldn't be much of this food in the hands of your people.

Aren't you just stocking up and preparing to use them as materials to compete with the Tang Dynasty?

Everyone knows this well, we just want money, we don’t care about the other things, right? "

Zhao Derong disdainfully exposed his lies, and then asked Changsun Huan, who nodded instinctively.

"In that case, it's settled. I hope we can cooperate next time."

After the matter was discussed, the three of them stood up and prepared to leave.

Zhao Derong and Chang Sun Huan left the restaurant. Zhao Derong said to Chang Sun Huan:

"Brother Changsun, let's just say goodbye. Your money will be delivered to the old place tomorrow. I will send someone to transport it. I will have them transport their money to the Weishui pier.

In order to avoid being caught by them, it’s hard to say when the time comes. What do you think? "

"Okay, Commander Zhao is thoughtful, but how long does it take for Commander Zhao to come back this time." Changsun Huan asked.

"What? Brother Zhangsun is afraid that Zhao will embezzle the money? Does Zhao not want such a big property in the industrial park?

Or is it that Zhao is not planning to stay in Datang in the future.

You are the son of Duke Zhao. It should not be difficult to find Zhao. "Zhao Derong said contemptuously.

"Haha, that's not true, I'm just caring." Changsun Huan made a haha.

"Don't worry, you can come back in two months, maybe less than two months. My ships are all ready.

As long as Zhao arrives in the south, he will immediately take money to buy food, and he can reach Goguryeo in less than a month.

Goguryeo didn't even need to come to Chang'an for half a month. "

Changsun Huan made an estimate in his mind. At about this time, the water route was much faster than the land route.

While the two were talking, the Goguryeo envoy in the private room of the restaurant did not rush out. The small door next to him opened and a person walked out.

"Sir, do you think Captain Zhao of the Jinhai Regiment is trustworthy? I've been asking around in Chang'an for two days, but no one knows about the organization of the Jinhai Regiment.

Could he be a liar? "The man walked out and came to the side of the Goguryeo envoy and asked in a low voice. He was the counselor and the one responsible for making suggestions in the envoy.

"Why are you lying to us? We just want food. We will only give money when the food arrives. If it doesn't arrive, there is no loss for us.

It's better than that hateful King Ji who deceived our people and said when purchasing food, the food from Tang Dynasty would arrive soon.

But after the purchase, Datang didn't have a grain of grain. In the end, he sold the original grain to our people at a high price.

For being so vicious, God will punish him sooner or later.

As for Captain Zhao of the Jinhai Regiment, he should not be in charge. The young man who came with him is the mastermind behind the scenes. "
