"Dongzhu. They've always lived in Haizhou. Seeing the situation in Haizhou, they took the train to Luoyang once. They stayed for less than a day before returning to Haizhou."
Li Guiheng continued to report to Li Yi. He was in charge of Luoyang's affairs, including intelligence.
Zhang Shuo said to Li Longji, "Henan's Honglu Temple is in contact with the officials. They pay more attention to the living conditions of the people of the Tang Dynasty, especially the fishing and railway transportation."
When he finished, Gao Lishi said, "They're working hard to learn the local language of the Tang Dynasty. The language of Guangzhou in the Tang Dynasty is different from that of Haizhou, Luoyang, and Chang 'an.
The official language is similar, but it also includes the accent. They pay attention to fishing nets, poultry, livestock, and prices. "
Yao Chong stood up. "Your Majesty, they've exchanged some small items, such as buttons, leather shoes, and leather shoe buckles. They seem to be more interested in auxiliary items."
The four intelligence departments of the Tang Dynasty gathered information from all sides. This was true for foreign merchants, and even more so for the Tang Dynasty.
The suffering of the officials of the Tang Dynasty! In the past, only one department investigated.
Now, the four departments were not subordinate to each other and acted independently. There was also a fifth department's inspector.
If you want to do something bad, you can't find a way to bribe someone when you know someone is investigating. There were too many ways.
Even if there were still people who took risks, most of them were reduced.
None of the officials in the main traffic areas were not afraid because they didn't know who was investigating.
The local officials who printed the newspapers knew that these people would snitch on them.
Sometimes, the relay stations might send information to the higher-ups through official channels.
The officials communicated with each other. There was no need to consider the officials. Send a message to the lower level to entertain such a group. Also, do you know where the other groups are?
Gao Lishi's group had physiological characteristics that needed to be identified carefully.
Perhaps someone in the group knew them and could provide information.
It was impossible to find the Li Family Zhuangzi's men. Even if they could find them, it was impossible to bribe them. Kill them? Try killing one?
For a time, the local law and order became better. No one dared to touch strangers. You didn't know if they were the Li Family Zhuangzi's men.
If you think it's true, maybe it's true. You're afraid. Find a hoodlum to kill the Li Family Zhuangzi's men, then kill the hoodlum and bury him.
No, Li Dongzhu has a good relationship with King Yanluo, and he always fights King Yanluo and Judges.
Zhuangzi had promised to ask the dead, and once he did, wouldn't he be able to find out everything?
It didn't matter how many middlemen he killed. It all depended on whether Li Dongzhu would investigate or not.
As soon as the twenty-two barbarian merchants arrived, all parties immediately reported the arrival of the barbarian merchants.
When foreign officials came to court, they had to go through the Honglu Temple. When doing business, they had to go through the Merchant Department.
The former belonged to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, while the latter belonged to the Customs.
"Xiao Yi, do you want to sell the seeds to them?" Bi Goo didn't forget that Li Yi wanted to trick them into selling the seeds.
Li Yi thought about it and shook his head. "That's not interesting. What's truly powerful is martial strength. Normal trade is enough."
Li Yi canceled his previous plan. It was meaningless, and he needed manpower to arrange it.
By the time the Tang dynasty planted all the seeds, would they still care about others stealing them?
"When the time comes, the inspection will be stricter. The coastline is long, and it won't be easy to guard against them. Ships have to be inspected at sea."
Li Yi changed his method. The Tang dynasty had many ships. When he went to inspect them, the other party would have to take them out for inspection and then allow them to board the ships for inspection.
He had other ways to limit the inspection, and the cost wasn't too high.
The barbarian merchant ships secretly took the seeds out. In order to avoid the inspection of the Tang dynasty, they would have to take unfamiliar routes.
The unfamiliar sea route was not close to the shore, and their ships would capsize.
Then, when the Great Tang army escorting the merchant caravans discovered crops that shouldn't have appeared in some place, the Great Tang army would go and eradicate them.
They didn't have to delay it for too long.
Ten years later, it wasn't certain who would own the land where the new crops were planted.
"Let's go take a look?" Lu Huaishen was curious.
"No, it's too far. Luoyang Palace is twenty-five miles from here. I'll go to the hospital."
Li Yi didn't want to waste time. Do I have to take action just because 22 barbarian merchants came?
It wasn't like the Tang dynasty didn't have foreigners. It was just these 22 people who came to Haizhou Harbor.
The 22 people who came from somewhere were rejected. No one met them.
No, there were officials from Honglu Temple who took care of them.
One of them was holding a tablet and was responsible for recording.
There were people from Honglu Temple who understood the language of the other party, but there were some problems with the dialect. They could communicate.
For example, the foreigners in Li Yi's time would say one word when they went to a restaurant: noodles.
Normal people wouldn't think that the other party wanted to eat bread, but noodles.
When Chinese people went out, needless to say, they would just use their hands to gesture and eat with chopsticks. The kind foreigners would take them or them to a Chinese restaurant.
It was easier in a Chinese restaurant. No matter where the restaurant was opened, at least the other party could understand Mandarin.
In fact, those who didn't know foreign languages had to find a tour guide who knew foreign languages.
It was easier with a mobile phone. Regardless of whether the translation was normal or not, everyone could understand the general meaning.
For example, if you wanted to eat breakfast, you would give two words: morning and eat.
This was definitely wrong, but when the other party saw it, oh, understood. Breakfast, right?
You could even point to the rising sun and shout "eat". The other party would definitely not think that you wanted to eat the sun. That thing was not easy to pick. The key was that if you ate it, what would happen to everyone else?
International communication turned out to be so simple. Nothing else was an obstacle.
When Li Yi's yacht set out and arrived at the island, there was even no such communication.
Human communication was intellectual. It could be completed through facial expressions and body language.
There were powerful people in Honglu Temple who could understand. They could even understand Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures. What was the difference in other languages?
The 22 people had just arrived and were taken to eat … breakfast by the "tour guide"?
Anyway, there was always food to eat. They didn't need to spend money. The Tang dynasty was in charge. The Tang dynasty could still afford it. It was within the budget.
There was a lot of seafood in Haizhou, and there was no shortage of rice, steamed buns, and wontons.
The officials of Honglu Temple didn't take the foreign guests to eat beef and mutton. They knew that there were places where people always ate.
They took them to the hotpot place. There was chili oil and a wide variety of dishes.
The key was that they plagiarized the Heavenly World's running water transportation hotpot. It couldn't be called plagiarism. This was another Heavenly World. It was a chain.
…
"Next, what's wrong recently? The number of patients with appendicitis has increased. The foreigners' eating habits and suddenly overeating after eating good food? "
Li Yi was dealing with a patient with appendicitis in the hospital. It was the third case. He did it himself in an hour.
There were too many cases. It seemed to be concentrated.
The nurses in the laboratory department were working hard. They had to know the situation of every case.
There were three other similar surgeries in progress. They were completed by the nurses, but the speed was slow.
Li Yi was thinking about the root cause, not the surgical technique.
He didn't want to cut the appendix if he could, because he needed to pay attention to the increase in the number of appendicitis.
He was not other doctors who could cut the appendix just because he said it was useless.
"Use lactic acid bacteria to control the foreigners' meat intake." Li Yi ordered.
