Zhang Feng's tortoise had already been stewing in the pot for a long time.
Therefore, it didn't take long for him to prepare three dishes and two soups in front of Li Shimin.
The tempting aroma of the tortoise soup, coupled with the pepper and the taste of a green grass that Li Shimin didn't recognize, instantly made Li Shimin put down the wine bowl in his hand. He picked up the spoon, gently scooped up a spoonful of milky white soup, and took a sip.
Instantly, the strong taste opened Li Shimin's taste buds.
This time, Li Shimin didn't say a word, which was rare.
Zhang Feng could also see that Li Shimin had encountered something, but since Lao Li didn't say anything, he couldn't ask. He could only accompany Li Shimin. After all, he also had a basket of troubles.
In the end, the meal was finished.
Li Shimin touched his slightly bulging belly, smacked his lips and drank Zhang Feng's unique tea, and said, "Every time I come to your place, I feel that I'm still alive!"
Zhang Feng smiled.
"It seems like you've encountered something again?"
"Sigh!"
Li Shimin sighed deeply.
"Isn't that so? It's all because of the drought. "
Zhang Feng was stunned.
"Could it be that it has something to do with the little yellow gate yesterday, and the Tubo envoy?"
Li Shimin nodded.
"You still don't know, right? Because of the food shortage, there's now a civil rebellion in Tubo, which even lasted from Tuyuhun all the way to Tubo. I heard that the envoy brought news yesterday that as long as the Tang Dynasty is near Tubo, it's been looted. "
"You also know that after I started working with Zhen La here, the focus of my business is basically in Tubo. This time, I've suffered a great loss!"
Zhang Feng couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this.
However, Zhang Feng already had a premonition about this.
After all, this rotten idea came from him.
At this time, seeing Li Shimin like this, Zhang Feng patted Li Shimin's shoulder and smiled, "I thought it was something big. Isn't this the one? "
Li Shimin's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"This is a small matter?"
"You don't know. Yesterday, I personally went to ask Lord Zhangsun about business matters. Guess what Lord Zhangsun said? According to the Lord Zhangsun, the Tubo's Tuli Khan has mobilized one hundred thousand elite troops from Youzhou, while India is also eyeing covetously. The Tubo people are here to ask for help. "
"So what?"
Zhang Feng glanced at Li Shimin indifferently, clicked his tongue and said, "For such a small matter, your hair has turned white again? Is it necessary? "
Li Shimin was speechless.
"I say, Fengzi, you really don't mind watching a show. I heard that the Emperor wants to go to war. Why are you still making sarcastic remarks here?"
Zhang Feng pursed his lips.
"Who did you hear that from?"
"Lord Zhangsun!"
"Then you must have misheard. If you don't believe me, do you dare to make a bet with me? I bet that the Emperor will not send troops!"
Li Shimin was stunned.
His eyes flashed and asked, "Do you know that the Emperor wants to take the opportunity to completely include Tubo and Tuyuhun into the territory of the Tang Dynasty? And he doesn't want to send troops! "
Zhang Feng smiled mysteriously.
He clinked his wine bowl with Li Shimin, picked up a golden grasshopper and said, "I'm also talking about this! I can guarantee that as long as the Emperor is not crazy, he will never agree to this! "
"Are you so sure?"
Zhang Feng didn't say anything. He just looked at Li Shimin with a smile.
Li Shimin couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Why?"
Zhang Feng was speechless.
"You don't understand this? You're still a businessman. "
Li Shimin's face blushed.
"How would I know such a big national issue? I'm a businessman. I only care about my business. "
Zhang Feng patted the oil and salt in his hand and said, "Well, I'll give you a lesson today. There's a reason why I said that this war won't be fought. Do you remember the way to deal with Tubo that I told you before?"
Li Shimin thought for a while.
In the end, he shook his head.
He really didn't know about this matter.
He should have heard about it because he vaguely remembered that Zhang Feng seemed to have said it. But he was too busy and forgot about it.
Li Shimin couldn't help but ask, "I'd like to hear the details."
"It seems that you really forgot about it."
Zhang Feng sighed and continued, "Do you remember what I said when Tubo came to ask for a waterwheel last time?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin instantly remembered what happened last time. He nodded and said, "I remember, but this time is different. The Tang Dynasty is on the side of the right time and the right place. Can you guarantee that the Emperor won't send troops? And the Turks have this idea. If the Turks take advantage of the situation and invade, won't the door of the Tang Dynasty be completely open? "
Zhang Feng smiled.
"You don't understand this, do you?"
"When I said that we won't fight, I didn't mean that we won't help Tubo withstand the firepower. Let me ask you, if you want to buy a house and this house has just been burned down, will you buy it?"
Li Shimin shook his head.
"That's it. Now Tubo is equivalent to this house that has been burned into a mess in the fire. Now, this person asks you to help him put out the fire. Are you going to buy it at the lowest price at this time? Or are you going to buy it when you help him put out the fire and let him repair it? "
"…"
