It wasn't until the evening that the two sides finished the exchange. The Tubo people took out more than three hundred yuan to compensate for the bad cloth and copper coins.
This was more than three hundred thousand yuan. The farmers' hard work was worth it.
Therefore, Li Yi stir-fried the river snail meat in sesame oil and some boiled in salt water.
The stir-fried meat was eaten by Third Brother, Big Brother, and Sister-in-law.
The shells were boiled in salt water and given to the children in Zhuangzi to play with.
After cooking for a long time, all the parasites were killed.
There were two ways to eat this. The first was to use a toothpick and stick it into the meat. Then, the meat would come out by spinning the river snail with the fingers of the other hand.
The second way was eaten by Li Yi when he was a child. Using the hole behind the key, insert the tip of the river snail into the hole and break it.
Then, put the big part of the river snail into the mouth and suck. The meat would go into the mouth.
The children in the village chose … both ways.
They found a workshop to make a metal plate with a small hole and inserted it with a bamboo toothpick. This way, the meat would come out easier.
The reason why they didn't suck was because sucking too much would make the mouth tired. When chewing, the mouth would become numb and the taste wouldn't be enough.
Now, the children also paid attention to the quality of the food they ate, although it was a little troublesome.
"Big Brother, Third Brother, the money we earn still has to go to the Ministry of Works. Minister Wei must be tired. Help me talk to him."
While drinking, he said to Li Chengqi and Li Longji.
He indeed had to spend more than two hundred thousand yuan on Zhuangzi.
Li Yi didn't need to use money to raise his status. He was a third-rank civil official.
He took out a lot of technology that was helpful for farming. He also put in a lot of effort to deal with the locust plague.
Putting himself in Li Yi's shoes, Li Yi felt that he was the emperor.
The annual revenue was less than eight million yuan. There was a Zhuangzi next to the capital. Today, there was more than two hundred thousand yuan.
How could he not be tempted? That was money. It could be used to arm the army and build roads and bridges.
Just like Shen Wansan … No, no, no, Shen Wansan's story was fabricated.
According to the information, Shen Wansan was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang during the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty.
"Brother Yi, you are really willing." Li Longji sighed.
He had just received more than two hundred thousand taels and was about to take them out.
It wasn't buying land or partnering with others to do business. It was just throwing it away.
Seeing that Brother Yi still had the leisure to cook river snails to go with the wine, she knew that he didn't take the money seriously.
"Third Brother, I like the feeling of making money, especially when I'm cheating Tubo.
If I succeed, I'll get the money. I don't want that money anymore.
Speaking of which, their investment in Chang 'an was not small. All the foreign countries' offices in Beijing, no, embassies, no, envoys.
They brought a lot of valuable jewelry with them. Last night, they sold them overnight, which benefited the businessmen of the Tang dynasty.
I estimate that we can still squeeze out five to six hundred thousand coins worth of good stuff from them. "
Li Yi was calculating. There were a lot of jade, ivory, rhinoceros horns, tiger bones, tiger penis, and crocodile skin from the Japanese. They were all good stuff.
Of course, those tigers were South China tigers and Bengal tigers, not Siberian tigers.
Wu Song also didn't fight Siberian tigers. Wu Song was a Siberian tiger. Even if he drank stimulants, he would still be defeated.
In the Tang dynasty, there were only three situations where a hunter could escape unscathed from a Siberian tiger.
First, the Siberian tiger didn't see him or smell him.
Second, the Siberian tiger was too full and didn't want to move.
Another thing was that the hunter had at least three Chinese field dogs with him. Moreover, they were field dogs that were known as mountain guard dogs.
Together with the hunter's bow, the three mountain guard dogs could cooperate with the hunter to charge forward.
After the hunter's bow and the three mountain guard dogs, the two sides confronted each other and then each side took a step back.
The snow dog dominated the plateau alone. It was the only mountain guard dog in ten thousand miles.
When the Tang dynasty and Tubo were at war, there were dogs involved.
Tubo was naturally a Tibetan mastiff, a real Tibetan mastiff, not the kind that was kept as a pet.
The Tang dynasty sent mountain guard dogs. Usually, they would fight with numbers and not let go.
Tibetan mastiff's skin was good at keeping people warm, but Tubo would rather sell other things than Tibetan mastiff's skin.
They didn't have mastiff's skin in their own tents, and it had never appeared on their clothes.
This was what Li Yi learned. He judged that Tubo's Tibetan mastiffs didn't form groups, otherwise, they would be used to charge forward.
The Tang dynasty had too few mountain guard dogs, so they couldn't complete the task of charging forward.
Now, what the Tibetans had was not money, but all kinds of luxury goods.
The more funds they could mobilize in Chang 'an, the deeper their infiltration into the Tang dynasty.
Therefore, Li Yi, who had thought of many possibilities, said to Li Chengqi and Li Longji, "The Tibetans might continue to bribe Tubo.
But it seems that the Turks and other tribes were deceived and didn't know the situation.
They will get the other non-critical blueprints of the hot air balloon through the Works Supervisor, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ordnance Supervisor. "
"Well, it's possible." Li Longji thought seriously and admitted.
Li Chengqi said, "Report to His Majesty and keep an eye on it."
"No, not keep an eye on it, but use that blueprint again. If it can be sold at a good price, then they will come to buy alcohol."
Li Yi didn't think that the officials would be bribed at all. He thought that the other party still had something to sell.
Tubo did it once, so why couldn't others do it again?
There were so many Turkic tribes. The Turkic tribes were Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia, and the northeast.
The Lantian jade of Lantian County was good, but he couldn't get it.
The Hetian jade of Xinjiang was also good, and there were many local specialties.
The specialties of Inner Mongolia and the northeast were also good.
Since they could sell Tubo alcohol once, why not sell it a few more times?
Li Longji and his brother understood. Empress Wang paused for a moment.
She was breastfeeding. She insisted on breastfeeding.
When she was breastfeeding, there was a stand on both of her shoulders.
Then, a cloth curtain hung down. When she lowered her head, she could see the baby drinking milk. To others, it was a small tent.
Li Yi designed it for the breastfeeding women in Zhuangzi.
It was very convenient. When she wasn't feeding the baby, it could be rolled up, folded, and slung over her shoulder.
When she was breastfeeding, she adjusted it slightly and it became a big cover.
"Uncle, if we operate it well, can we make hundreds of thousands of yuan?" Empress Wang was always interested in money.
"That depends on how many valuable things they have with them. I'm going to use alcohol to squeeze them dry.
Then, I'll take out new things and let them have no choice but to exchange with livestock or bring livestock over. "
Li Yi wasn't very sure about the specific situation of the Brahmins.
For example, some tribes only wanted to live and were not willing to take the initiative to fight, so their demand for hot air balloons was small.
What they needed was not hot air balloons, but the judgment of the strong in the battle.
The one who emerged victorious in the end would bring more danger to himself.
If they were sure that the Tang dynasty would win, they could even migrate their tribes. Let's go, we don't want to mess with Tubo anymore.
For example, the Shatuo tribe was originally threatened by Tubo, but they didn't want to be enemies with the Tang dynasty, so they migrated.
Therefore, when the Tang dynasty ended, they occupied a place as a neutral country for the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.
It was said that the direction of history had nothing to do with individuals, but in fact, it was the outstanding leaders who changed the dynasty.
The turning of the world's history was completed by a certain person or a few people.
