A large group of Western Turks was eating ferociously. Ever since Khan Mozi had killed Suo Ge and Suo Ge's younger brother and obtained absolute power, he had begun to wantonly bully the other smaller tribes.
The ten surnames of Western Turks ran to the Tang Dynasty one by one.
Li Longji had arranged for the first batch of people to stay in Henan Province. Later on, they were settled at the border.
The whole Turks were in a mess. They ran to the Tang Dynasty to ask for help.
When they settled down, they turned around and ran to other places to fight the Tang Dynasty.
Tubo was there. Tubo also fought the Tang Dynasty and sometimes joined forces with other Turks.
At this time, only a part of them went to the Tang Dynasty. There would be more coming.
Those who could go to the Tang Dynasty in person were naturally the representatives of various tribes. Some tribes with the same surname chose their own representatives.
The tribes had a hard time, but it didn't mean that those with high status also had a hard time.
They had "money". When they saw the good things of the Tang Dynasty, they wanted them.
Soap, toilet water, glycerin, dried oysters, dried sea cabbage.
And the newly seen fireworks.
"Leader Jinshan, do you want to move out of Honglu Temple?" Li Yi mentioned the building of the house again.
"It's troublesome to move out. It's better to live there." Zhuya Jinshan shook his head and refused, but he knew it was dangerous to move out.
"In that case, you can order meals with Earthly Paradise. I'll give you a card." Li Yi changed a benefit.
"After the New Year, will a large number of businessmen go to the border between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty?" Zhuya Jinshan was concerned about trade.
"There are also at the Turkic border." Li Yi agreed. He was responsible for providing the important goods for the caravan and shared it with Li Longji.
The weather was warm now and there was no snow to block the mountains.
Whether it was Tubo or Turks, they had changed from a simple animal husbandry to a combination of farming and animal husbandry.
The most powerful Khan Moqi always wanted to propose. As long as the princess of the Tang Dynasty married outside, he would give a lot of things.
Wu Zetian once gave a lot of seeds, farming tools, and iron to the Turks.
They used it for farming. Without good farmers, they killed and robbed the people of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Yi also knew that if he allowed Mojo to develop, Mojo would be assassinated next year.
As long as he died, the new Turkic Khagan would ascend to the throne and kill each other.
"There doesn't seem to be any difference whether Moxie is dead or alive?" Li Yi said as he thought about it.
"Mochi?" Zhuya Jinshan repeated and shook his head, "This person is too vicious, he doesn't care about the lives of other clans."
"That's why there are so many tribes coming to the Tang dynasty when he's alive. If he's dead, they won't be in a hurry to come to the Tang dynasty."
Li Yi felt that the current situation was very good. According to the records, there were still many people rushing over.
"Li Dongzhu, can you give the Shatuo Clan some weapons?" Zhuya Jinshan couldn't care less about other people's lives. He had to think about his own clan.
The Shatuo Clan was not included in the ten clans of the Western Turkic Empire. The Shatuo Clan struggled to survive. If it wasn't for the Tubo Clan forcing them to migrate, they would have been wiped out in the battle between the Tubo Clan and the Tang dynasty.
Li Yi looked at Zhuya Jinshan and didn't say anything. "You want to ask me for weapons? I, Zhuangzi Clan, can forge weapons for myself and sell them outside … "
Zhuya Jinshan smiled embarrassedly. He forgot that Li Yi didn't know that his third brother was Li Longji.
"Is there anything else that can help my clan?" Zhuya Jinshan changed the topic.
"Good things for weaving wool and cotton shouldn't be exported. Oh, it shouldn't be sold outside. But the Shatuo Clan is on good terms with the Tang dynasty, so it's okay."
Li Yi said that the wool felt of the new three-spindle treadmill used by the capital government was not as good as wool.
Wool that couldn't be woven into sweaters was suitable to be made into felt.
Sweaters were better at keeping people warm than ordinary silk. Zhuangzi Clan didn't lack leather clothes. They planted a lot of cotton this year and also had cotton-padded clothes.
Other people couldn't stand it. The cold would consume heat, and heat had to be replenished with food.
"Is there any harm?" Zhuya Jinshan was more worried that Li Yi would cheat his people.
"No, but the wool needs to be steamed and degreased with plant ashes. Otherwise, it can't be woven." Li Yi promised.
"Is there anything harmful?" Zhuya Jinshan rolled his eyes and asked.
"Do you want a mirror?" Li Yi also asked.
"A mirror is harmful?" Zhuya Jinshan wanted to know more.
"Remember to tell your son not to pursue luxury. Seeing what you have done to the Tang dynasty recently, I will help your people live a good life. "
Li Yi said some friendly words.
"Thank you, Li Dongzhu." Zhuya Jinshan vaguely guessed what was going on.
"Don't mention it. If the Shatuo people betray us one day, our friendship will be gone. When we meet, don't blame me for killing too much, although I don't want to kill too much."
Li Yi warned that he needed the Shatuo people to help him run the business there.
As long as there was no major turmoil in the Tang dynasty, the Shatuo people would be fine.
In normal history, this clan was a powerful force in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
Who would have thought that the Shatuo people who were struggling at death's door would have such a glorious day?
Zhuya Jinshan was in a bad mood when he heard Li Yi's straightforward words. He showed it on his face.
"After dinner, Chief Jinshan and I are going to see something." Li Yi didn't say anything else.
The people of the Ten Western Turkic Clans were big eaters. They kept adding dishes and rice. Fortunately, they knew the rules and ate as much as they wanted.
After everyone finished eating, Li Yi asked Song De to discuss the business with them. He took Zhuya Jinshan to the back.
There were 25 more craftsmen in the back workshop. The craftsmen who had researched the gunpowder and released the fireworks were sent to Li Yi's Zhuangzi.
They knew that they had made a mistake and lost a lot of things. At the same time, they scared the people in the palace and thought that they would be severely punished.
However, when they found out that they were sent to Li Yi's Zhuangzi, they went home happily and asked their families to move. They had a good life ahead!
They were there when the fireworks were released. When they saw the beautiful fireworks, they felt that they were not good enough.
Li Yi brought Zhuya Jinshan to see a row of fireworks. To be precise, it was a row of fireworks.
One by one, they were placed on a large shelf and connected to each other with medicinal threads.
"Chief Jinshan knows that I don't sell fireworks. He said that they can be used in the military. Here they are." Li Yi took out a lighter.
He asked someone to adjust the direction of the fireworks. There was an open space in front, and then he pulled the long fuse to the back.
He pointed in that direction. "Take a look."
After saying that, he picked up the fuse and lit it. The fuse burned quickly.
Soon, it burned to the back of the first fireworks. "Whoosh!" The fireworks flew out.
Then the second, the third … There were 20 fireworks in total.
By the time the fifteenth one landed, the first one had already landed.
"Boom!" There was a loud boom, and then there was another boom.
The fireworks exploded in a certain area. Smoke and dust rose.
When the last explosion ended, Zhuya Jinshan stood there and swallowed his saliva.
"Sigh!" Li Yi sighed. "It still flew close, and the direction was not accurate enough. But it's okay. It will be better in a few days. "
He turned to Zhuya Jinshan and said, "Are the fireworks beautiful?"
