Shuofang and Li Yuanji found the head of the caravan returning from the Western Regions at the General's Mansion.

"Gourmet to His Highness, King Qi."

The Tang Kingdom did not have the habit of kneeling three times and bowing nine times. The greatest extent to which people came to bow was to bend down, and usually he would hold his fists.

The three responsible persons entered the General's Mansion, and they watched the dusty journey suffered a lot.

"How is this your trip?"

Li Yuanji was still impatient. He was already very patient when he could speak like this. If there weren't so many things before, how could he say a few more words to his subordinates?

However, at this time, Li Yuanji's heartbeat changes and the method of accidental changes is also changing. Although he is not considerate of his subordinates, he will not be given less rewards.

"Return to His Highness, the trip was 500 people and thirty cargo vehicles. During the trip, he encountered 32 horse bandits who had lost their cargo. The goods arrived safely in Yiwu, Gaochang, and Wuji Kingdom. The transaction successfully brought back thirty cargoes of fur, gold and silver and some local specialties, of which fifty horses were brought back."

"The transaction value with the countries in the Western Regions was 30% higher than that in the Tang Dynasty."

"Okay, it's great. I'll give you instructions to reward each of you with one hundred stakes, and each of your soldiers will have ten stakes."

"Thank you, King Qi."

After being sent by the caravan, Li Yuanji was reluctant to give him nearly 800 stagnants as soon as he opened his mouth. He calculated the cost and benefits of this trip and directly took one-third of them.

The first time the trade was so successful, we need to maximize the benefits and immediately order people to transport the fur to Youzhou to trade at least twice the benefits.

The most important thing is the fifty newly purchased horses. He wanted to build a cavalry. His previous battle was to suffer losses without cavalry. The so-called "learning one's mistakes lead to wisdom" and "being smarter in the Western Regions" is the key to his goal.

"Congratulations to His Highness King Qi for opening up the Western Regions' trade route." Cui Hao appeared and said in a compliment.

Li Yuanji was very happy. This trade route was provided by Cui Hao. When he thought of Zhang Qian's trip to the frontier, no one paid much attention to the countries in the Western Regions. He believed that they were all small countries and were far away and not worth mentioning.

Now it seems that there are many benefits to opening up the trade route.

"I will expand the caravan next time. I want Cui Hao to lead the team yourself. I wonder if you are willing?"

Li Yuanji asked directly, and the purpose was to value Cui Hao's knowledgeable knowledge. Such talents must have extremely high talent in business and cannot make his caravan suffer.

"Qi King's order should be completed with all his heart and strength."

Cui Hao is very smart. If you want to win the trust of the master, you need to achieve success. He also analyzed the intention of the King of Qi. The scale of the caravan will inevitably be very large next time.

"Okay, I'll ask you all about the king."

Li Yuanji's purpose was to let Cui Hao take goods to exchange horses. As for fur, all benefits can be put aside. It is useless to have no soldiers and horses.

Cui Hao knew it in his heart but couldn't say it directly. A smart person who is with the king is worthwhile and a smart person will cause trouble.

Li Yuanji's personality has always been straightforward. Although he is not cunning, he is trying to change his future achievements. It is hard to say that the current development of power requires such a leader to achieve success.

Decisive and unremitting efforts are the advantage of not being valued by the emperor and having no conflict of interest with all officials in the court.

The original impression I gave was that Li Jiancheng was a man, and everyone would feel at ease about being a general who led troops.

He was not involved in the dispute between the princes of the Tang Kingdom and was able to protect the border. Although he was not popular, the royal family gave a lot of gold, silver and treasures. This was the advantage of the King of Qi.

Li Yuanji began to prepare, and he sold all the money and treasures from the Prince Qi's Mansion in exchange for a large amount of money to purchase goods and carriages.

Although he had few soldiers under him, he was able to allocate 30,000 people to the greatest extent. This time he bet on everything and wanted to trade.

The support from several aristocratic families behind him made him feel confident.

Not long after, Cui Hao followed the caravan and headed for the Western Regions.

During the preparation process, the purchase of carriages was all from Youzhou, and the wide-body carriage allowed the caravan to load more goods.

There are many products purchased in Youzhou, and Cui Hao was the one who came forward to purchase them in the name of a caravan. No one noticed it when trading.

Procurement like them is common in Youzhou, and carriages are ready-made and sold in one day. Although it is rare, it is very common for newly established caravans.

In addition, the carriage shop purchased by adventurers has made a big profit in the carpenter's workshop. The profits have increased soon. The carpenter's workshop is studying the application for starting a company, and they are also very envious of the annual discounts.

The car business has some impact on the carriage business. In fact, the carriage sales are still very good. After all, the price of cars is too expensive and not everyone can afford it.

Li Yuanji didn't know that this time the caravan would meet the Youzhou Adventurers Alliance, and sometimes he was afraid of comparison.

When they met on the way to the countries of the Western Regions, they realized the difference between 30,000 guards and 30,000 escorts and 300 escorts.

Li Yuanji watched the caravan leaving in Shuofang, and he was nervous when he saw the soldiers leaving the city. Shuofang was on the border of the north of the desert, and now there were less than 5,000 guards in the city.

All of them are his guards, but elite does not mean how much they will play in the face of enemies that exceed their number of troops.

Li Yuanji was betting that blocked all his wealth, wealth and life.

If the caravan cannot come back, he will not even have a penny to pay the food and salary. Being able to do things so thoroughly shows Li Yuanji's determination.

In Chang'an, Li Yuan temporarily left Li Shimin in Tuyuhun and began to implement his plan, but he attached more importance to grain production than commercial development.

I have long believed that the requirement of large-scale cultivation of land based on agriculture has made all the people devote themselves to the cultivation of wasteland.

His idea was very simple to make up for the shortcomings of the Tang Kingdom, that is, the expectation of the family to meet the needs of grain was unrealistic, so he took this opportunity to start changing.

He did not restrict the people from cultivating more land. He even took out a new acre of land for each household to reduce the taxes paid. In order to reduce taxes, the people actively cooperated with more food.

Nowadays, every household has more than 100 acres of land to cultivate livestock according to the farming plan. The future income will be three times that of the Tang Dynasty’s grain production.

Not only did it expand the arable land but also used organic fertilizers. Chang'an's spending workshop played a great role.

There are also some wealthy businessmen who use high-end expenses purchased from Youzhou for farming. Although the price is more expensive, it is very worth the money.

Even Li Yuan sent people to purchase a large amount of high-end expenses to cultivate his farmland in the imperial village, but it was not allowed to popularize the current national strength of the Tang Kingdom.
