Chapter 336 Dispel doubts
"Lack of money?" Yuengai Suwen started to make up his mind after hearing this.
Yeon Gaesumun knew that the fight for the throne in a dynasty was the most cruel and the most internally draining. Now that King Ji is short of money, it means that he supports many people.
He had heard that Prince Ji was very wealthy in the Tang Dynasty.
If there was also a rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, even if King Ji could dominate...
"Gong Lu, I don't know why His Royal Highness King Ji is short of money. I heard that King Ji is as rich as anyone in the country." Yeon Gaesumun asked tentatively. He needed to make sure.
"Well, since the king has asked about some things, Lu will not hide them. My family, King Ji, has great martial virtues, is talented, and loves the people like a son.
But it happened that he was only the tenth prince, and a concubine at that. The prince is unwilling to give in. Lu Wenxuan pretended to sigh, shook his head and continued.
"This world is inhabited by virtuous people, just like the king. How virtuous is the treasure king? He should have handed over Goguryeo to the king a long time ago.
Therefore, my prince does not want to be second to others, but he has more people to support, so he is short of money. "
"Okay, what Lu Gong said is absolutely true. This world should be populated by virtuous people. Prince Ji has a kind heart and should have succeeded to the throne in the future. It was only because of the Tang Dynasty's rule-breaking that he had no chance.
If my king is needed somewhere, I am willing to become an ally with King Ji for mutual help and mutual benefit. "
Yeon Gae Su Wen was so applauded that he especially liked Lu Wenxuan’s saying that the virtuous in the world will live there. He has always thought so.
The Gao family has ruled Goguryeo for so many years, but the past few generations have become more and more ignorant and unprincipled. He Yuan Gaisu Wen is the proud son of heaven, and the world should change.
Lu Wenxuan smiled and nodded in cooperation when he heard what Yuengai Suwen said;
“Don’t worry, Your Majesty, my Prince also cherishes the heart of your Majesty. If you need any help, just ask, My Prince is willing to help.
If my prince hadn't been in urgent need of money right now, this batch of grain would have been originally planned to be given to the king. "
After hearing this, Yeon Gaesowen cursed in his heart. He didn't believe what Lu Wenxuan said, but he still had a smile on his face.
"Hahaha, okay, Lu Gong is quick to talk. But there is really something that I need Lu Gong's help with. What do you think of selling this batch of grain to me?"
"Your Majesty, Lu just said that this batch of grain is to make money, so it is just sold to the people and wait for next time. Later I will inform the prince to transport some cheaper grain to the prince. What does the prince think? "
Li Shendu emphasized not to sell it to Yeon Gaesumun.
Yeon Gae Suwen thought about it for a while. The price of one hundred coins per dou was indeed too high. Even if he bought it himself, he couldn't afford it.
Moreover, the other party clearly wanted to plunder people's money, so it was impossible to give him an advantage.
"In that case, I would like to thank King Ji first."
The meeting between the two ended and Lu Wenxuan left.
When Lu Wenxuan left, Yeon Gaesumun fell into deep thought, wondering whether what Lu Wenxuan said was true or false.
If it is true, as Lu Wenxuan said, that King Ji really rebelled, then God is really helping him. When the Tang Dynasty is in chaos, there will be no way to take care of Goguryeo.
To be honest, what he is most worried about right now is that Datang will take advantage of the situation.
"Always pay attention to the Tang people selling grain in various cities to see if there are any other attempts." Thinking of this, Yeon Gaesumin ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty"
All the people in Goguryeo were crazy about buying grain, and the people selling iron were buying grain. In fact, people in the Tang Dynasty not only collected copper coins for grain, but also gold, silver, and jewelry.
It's just that ordinary people don't have these, most of them are copper coins. But if the local gentry has gold, silver and jewelry, this condition is mainly for them.
However, people in the Tang Dynasty also harvested Korean ginseng, and the older the year, the more food they gave. This provides many people with the opportunity to go to the mountains to dig ginseng.
In less than half a month, millions of stones of grain were sold out.
Millions of Goguryeo coins were transported to the Tang Dynasty one after another. East Goguryeo coins from Yeon Gaesumun were transported to Dengzhou via waterways.
The treasure king's treasures of West Goguryeo were transported overland to the military camp on the border through Liaodong City.
There were officers and soldiers guarding them along the way, and both Treasure King and Yeon Gaesumun were afraid of giving Datang an excuse to attack.
This would never have been like this if the unified Goguryeo were still unified. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty's millions of troops conquered Goguryeo three times without victory. How could they be afraid of you, the Tang Dynasty?
"General, let us pick up the carriage again." They have been stationed here at the military camp outside Liaodong City for half a year.
Cheng Mingzhen didn't know why the imperial court insisted on letting them station here but didn't attack. However, one thing was good after arriving here. The supplies were much better than in the Dongyi Protectorate.
He often sent some cattle and sheep over. Anyway, the training was the same everywhere, and the soldiers could eat well, so he didn't write a memorial.
"Which batch is this?" Cheng Mingzhen asked.
"Back to the general, this is the eighth time here in Liaodong. I heard that they all traveled together deliberately, otherwise they would be too scattered. And they said there would be more in the future," the deputy general replied.
"The eighth time? That means there should be 80 or [-] coins now. His Royal Highness, Prince Ji, is planning to scrape off a layer of Goguryeo's land." Cheng Minzhen said, stroking his beard.
"General, although 80 is a lot, it's not that much."
"What do you know? Do you think Goguryeo is our Tang Dynasty? They have less copper to begin with, and their copper-smelting technology is not as good as ours. I heard that their annual tax revenue is only 600 to [-] million guan.
According to the experience of harvesting grain last time, King Ji must sell it on the east and west sides, so he will make at least 200 million yuan this time, which is really a big deal. "
Cheng Mingzhen began to sigh. In fact, Cheng Mingzhen was a distant relative of Cheng Yaojin's family. He also followed Cheng Yaojin's path when he joined the Tang Army. Every year he sends gifts to Cheng Yaojin's house, so he certainly knows more than others.
"Go ahead and send someone to bring it back. Remember, it's just like food. Whoever reaches out will be unlucky. This is a prince's money. I don't dare to touch it. Don't blame me for not warning me when the time comes."
Cheng Mingzhen gave another instruction. He had heard that Prince Ji was a money-hungry man, and if he dared to touch his money, he would be repaid.
The same is true here in Dengzhou. Ships dock almost every day, and boxes of copper coins are taken off the ships and put on the dock.
Because the box had no lid, the people watching here all saw boxes of money in the box. Of course, no one dared to touch it. Didn't they see that there were thousands of soldiers here?
The money will be put on a carriage and escorted by the government soldiers back to Prince Ji's Mansion in Chang'an.
"Your Majesty, all the Tang people have left, and they have also taken away all the money." A close aide of the Treasure King came to report.
"They finally left. Do you think that Tang man was telling the truth?" Treasure King said with a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, I think most of it is true. I heard about this King Ji when I was in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty. He already had huge wealth at a young age, and I heard that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty liked him very much. .
It is reasonable for him to make preparations now. After all, the Tang Dynasty talks about ordering the elders and younger ones, and establishing the eldest son as the prince. Rather than establishing a virtuous person. "The confidant minister analyzed.
"Well, that's fine, if they themselves..."
"Your Majesty, General Jin is asking for an audience." Before the Treasure King finished speaking, a eunuch came in from outside to report.
"Let him in."
"The king is in trouble. Several groups of rebels robbed our granaries. After being blocked by us, they launched rockets. Several of our large granaries were burned down." A general came in to report in a hurry.
(I have an idea. The platform gives you permission to change the name of the fan level. The current names are Hall Fan, True Love Fan, and Die-hard Fan.
I'm going to change it and give you a suggestion. My plan is to change the die-hard fans to Wu Jing, the true fans to Wu Neng, and the palace fans to Wukong.
How about it. )
