Great Tang Idyll

Chapter 1378: The first time I see the king, it is negotiated

After all, the little tiger was the one who could not eat the tree, so he was unwilling to pass by.

Zhang Xiaobao waited for a while, then broke off a branch and threw it on the little tiger. Seeing that there was still no movement, he jumped to the ground and took out the rope to tie up the little tiger's limbs.

"The efficacy of the medicine is okay. I used to experiment on pigs and monkeys. For the first time, I used it on tigers. There are still tigers here. I must cherish them in the future and can't kill them."

The following words of Wang Juan were addressed to Cuan Moa.

Cuan Mo's disapproval, and justified: "Tigers eat sheep and people. There are also rhinos, which are also very destructive."

"No matter how powerful they can be compared to humans? Delineate the area later and someone will protect you. Only when there are a certain number of tigers and rhinos are you allowed to apply for hunting. Otherwise, it is a violation of the Law of Tang Dynasty. Go ahead."

Naturally, Wang Juan would not carry the prey. Zhang Xiaobao and Cuan Mo Adelao cut off a branch and threaded it onto the rope. The two one after the other, lifted the tiger and walked back. Today they no longer fight other prey. .

Wang Juan looked back at the dense forest, there was the sound of birds singing, and muttered: "Children in the future can't just watch the tigers and rhinos that once appeared in Yunnan on TV. Here, the beauty of Dianchi Lake is not only."

"Otherwise, India is pretty good, at least leave something." Zhang Xiaobao heard Wang Juan's words and followed.

Cuan Mo can't figure it out, why is India so good? What is left

What he cares more about is the thing about beating tigers. He supported the branch on his shoulders with one hand and asked curiously: "Can you kill a tiger if you hit a tiger? Can the tiger kill someone with a gun without feeling afterwards?"

"It depends on where you hit it. If you hit the heart, neck, and eyes, death will occur." Zhang Xiaobao said with a smile.

"I mean being close, hitting the legs and buttocks, sometimes hurting, there is pus and blood in the wound, it hurts to cut with a knife, and it hurts to hit someone with a tiger-beating thing, and then cut it again, doesn't it hurt? "

Cuan Moa thought of the practical aspect, which is reflected in the medical treatment.

Zhang Xiaobao was walking behind, unable to see Cuan Mo's expression, but he himself was surprised, regardless of whether the other party could see him or not, nodded: "It's already in use, no need to shoot with a gun, it's similar to anesthetic bombs. There is a small needle, which can be inserted into the body with a slight stroke.

There is also the inhalation anesthesia under study. After breathing, people are numb, and the knife doesn’t feel pain on the body, and the amount is not easy to control. They are experimenting with monkeys, poor monkeys, they have made a huge contribution to mankind. It's a pity that there are no guinea pigs. "

Cuan Moa didn't understand what effect the white mouse could have. He was surprised by Datang's methods. If the explosive thing that appeared before was used to attack, the anesthetic thing mentioned now is to protect the people.

Cuan Moah had never been to Datang, but only listened to the words spoken by the merchants, especially with regard to weapons, which was exaggerated after hearing it before, but now that he saw the real thing, he believed other things the merchant said.

"Xiaobao, is it troublesome for the tribe to return to Datang?" Cuan Moa finally couldn't help asking what was in his heart.

"It's no trouble, you admit it, and you are naturalized. We will set up the shelf immediately and send medical staff to the local area. I know what you need most is people who can see a doctor. Although the manpower over there is not very rich. The individual is still fine, and at the same time I can study local diseases and medicinal materials."

Zhang Xiaobao is very happy and looking forward to the integration of the local people. As a family, local resources can be used well, and future expansion can be used as a logistics supply base.

"There are gems too." Zhang Xiaobao thought of the local specialties, and said smoothly.

"Yes, I'll go back and give you some." Cuan Mo thought Zhang Xiaobao wanted it.

Zhang Xiaobao hurriedly replied: "No, just say it. You can't mine hard by yourself, especially if it is destructive. In order to get a gem and damage more gems, the underground wealth should be left to future generations as much as possible. If we want to use gems, you can. Grab it from other countries, oh, change it."

Cuan Moa couldn't keep up with Zhang Xiaobao's thinking. He didn't understand why he had to leave it to future generations. The gems were in the ground and could be dug at will. Many of them were exchanged from other places.

But he didn’t refute. Since they asked not to dig, they didn’t dig at first, and the gems could not run away after putting them there. The only thing that worries him is how to exchange valuables with other places in Datang without taking the gems out. .

As if guessing Cuan Mo's thoughts, Wang Juan said to him: "Your wealth is not just gems. To me and Xiaobao, your gems are nothing. As long as they are measurable in value, they are nothing more than money. problem.

We care more about you than gems. People are the most precious. You are just missing an opportunity. When our people guide you to do things, you don't have to worry about exchanges with other places in the future.

You can form a caravan by yourself, eat more after the fight, and have slaves come to help build the road. If there are fewer slaves, we will spend money to hire Indians to work, as well as Zhenla and other places. "

"Don't spend money on others, we can fix it on our own, let the money be spent on us." Cuan Moa's idea is very simple, and many people are like him.

"You have jobs that make more money, such as being a supervisor, and seeing if others are lazy when they are working, you will get far more money than those doing the work." Zhang Xiaobao explained.

"If we work and supervise the work again, don't we take more?" Cuan Moa said to Zhang Xiaobao.

"Do you have so many people? I need the road to be opened up as soon as possible and smoothed out. It is suitable for the brigade to pass quickly. I won't wait for you to fix it bit by bit. Your life is not as good as that in the prosperous place of Datang. It's not because You are born poor because of the inconvenience of transportation.

Many resources cannot be shipped out, and many resources cannot be used, and the outside world still needs your resources very much. One way is a hope. People who have never experienced it will never know. "

Zhang Xiaobao is influencing Cuan Moah, and I hope he can change his mind as soon as possible, don't always guard his little thoughts, there is a broader world outside.

Cuan Moah recognized it again. Although he didn't understand it very well, he believed that Xiaobao could not lie to himself. I used to think that there were more than 10,000 people in Xiaobao and Juanjuan, and it was easy to fight their own tribe. There were no old or weak in the team, and there were many people who could fight when they hit their own tribe.

Now I understand that they don't need to send too many people to fight over, dozens of people can kill all the people of their tribe. If you have such an ability, you still need to deceive yourself

When considering the use of force, Cuan Moa recalled the things mentioned by the businessman, as long as the people of Tang Dynasty were bullied, Datang would directly send troops to help the people of Tang Dynasty retaliate.

Thinking that he will be a member of Tang Dynasty in the future, he intends to ask more clearly, and then said: "What if people in my tribe are bullied by people from other tribes? Can you help fight them?"

"Look at what tribe is it? It’s an internal problem. In the future, you need to cooperate with them and have the protection of the law. Instead of killing you alone like someone from India, we will kill hundreds of people in India right away, and even some of them The king of a small country will be pulled down."

"Where is Liuzhao?" Cuan Moa asked again.

"This... I haven't figured out how Liuzhao planned. In fact, you should be able to find that many habits in life are not much different between you. My cuckoo and I are thinking about returning Liuzhao. Enter Datang.

There are more of them, and after they are incorporated, a large number of people will need to be scattered all over Datang, including you and the ethnic groups with the Meng surname. To put it bluntly, it is to assimilate you, otherwise it will take more time to slowly influence, we can't wait.

Otherwise, it would be easy for us to rely on the local area as a place for logistical supplies, and you will bring us a backyard to catch fire. How sad should I live? "

Zhang Xiaobao didn't conceal his purpose in the slightest, and he frankly said to Cuan Moah to listen to and communicate, and sometimes he could be more sincere. Putting it on the face is better than doing bad things behind his back.

Although Cuan Moah could not understand some vocabulary, he was able to guess the meaning, and nodded and said, "I am also very afraid that I will lead the warriors to fight in front and someone betrayed behind me. When you move people over, can you come back?"

“It’s not migration, it’s the method of recruiting workers to call people to work, pay more, take their family with them, and let them see the outside world. If they have more time, they will come back and see if they are willing to come back. It’s not forcing. Don’t worry, the cuckoo and I will never do anything to harm you, and tell you that you don’t understand. Anyway, we are a family."

Zhang Xiaobao assured Cuan Mo.

Cuan Moah really couldn't figure it out. He clearly had a strong force, and even discussed and talked with him when he came to him. He had the same weapon and had already conquered the Meng surnamed person and Liuzhao.

And it seems that this little treasure and the cuckoo are not stupid, why do they treat themselves like this

Cuan Moah, who couldn't figure it out, stopped thinking about it, and promised: "Okay, when my king comes, I will persuade."

"Okay, this time I will give you five long guns. I will give you a pistol, 1,000 rounds of long gun bullets, and 30 rounds of pistol bullets. I will train you for a few days. The bullets will count on us, the small guns... If you are not proficient, it will be uncomfortable if it blows up to your own people. It is a benefit for you."

Zhang Xiaobao mentioned the weapon, which Cuan Mo very wanted to possess. He hadn't mentioned it before, but he didn't think he would agree to replace it with himself.

I didn't expect Xiao Bao to speak so well, so he gave it to him before he spoke.

Considering that there will be weapons to protect the tribe in the future, Cuan Mo'a is happy at first, and then asks Zhang Xiaobao suspiciously: "Aren't you afraid that we will hit you with a weapon?"

"We are a family, if you really shoot us, don't blame me and the cuckoo for being cruel." Zhang Xiaobao told her frankly.

"Just ask, family." Cuan Moa was relieved, thinking that the weapon would be available instead of Xiaobao casually talking about it.

Wang Juan suggested: "Xiaobao, let's give them some money. Give them a few thousand sticks, enough to buy things for them and the merchants, such as advanced farming tools. I think their plows are all made of wood."

"No, Xiaobei will definitely give it. I know the little guys too much. Their money has never been used up. I always want to find a reason to give it to others and use it on children. Fortunately, our education has not failed. They only care about my children in Datang, and don't care about them in other countries."

When Zhang Xiaobao talked about his younger siblings, the smiles on his faces brightened up.

The corners of Wang Juan's mouth are also upturned. Whenever he thinks of his younger brothers and sisters, he feels very happy.

Cuan Moah also likes the nine Xiaobei very much. At a glance, he feels that he is stronger than other children, and they look good. He hopes that he will be like Xiaobei and others when he has children in the future.

So he asked: "Xiaobao, the children taught by Datang Academy are the same as Xiaobei and others? Are they rich?"

"Ah? The same? Ha ha, do you know how much effort I and Juanjuan put into their education? If I use this energy to make money, I can sell half of the land in Datang. Speaking of which, others can teach well. , But it's too difficult, not your own child, who wants to teach this way

As for money, they have their own business. In fact, they are all managed by the inner courtyard of the family. They just made an idea, but the cuckoo and I support them. You can get less than six million pennies a year, and more will be thereafter. About two million sticks are used up.

More than 700,000 of them have been used in children's medical research. This is really expensive and they have to invest themselves. But in the future, the money spent will increase, and the merchants cannot always pay all the school money. There was no way before, but now we are free. "

Speaking of education, Zhang Xiaobao is still very conceited. He and Wang Juan used knowledge beyond this era to teach their younger brothers and sisters, and the results achieved were quite good.

Cuan Moa’s most concern is not education, but money. Unlike his son, he has no knowledge of Datang money. He knows how much Data Tang money can buy, knowing that the nine children can make money every year. After millions of pens, he even had the thought of robbing.

Even if only a fraction of the money they earn every year is snatched, it is enough for the people in the tribe to enjoy them for a few lifetimes.

"Don't you take their money?" Cuan Moah puzzled.

"It's hard to think of a way to make money. How can we use it? Actually, they put the money in the bank and I use it. Besides, there is no shortage of their money at home."

Zhang Xiaobao said with a smile.

"That little money? How much money do you have?" Cuan Moah was even more surprised.

"Not much. It’s less than Datang’s treasury income, and it’s spent a lot. After disaster relief, you have invested in research. Also, you have to pay for the dam and artificial canal in Dianchi Lake. Your majesty. Wherever we go, we will never give us a penny of construction costs. It is sad to say it."

Zhang Xiaobao said casually, not forgetting to complain.

"I am also sad." Cuan Moah followed, finally knowing what the words "rich is the enemy of the country" mean. According to this, the little guys don't have much money, and he has kidnapped Xiaobao and the cuckoo again. Cuckoo's idea.

As they walked, the three said that time passed quickly. When they came to the negotiated place, the others hadn't returned yet, but the King of Cuan Gui was waiting there.

Cuan Moah was surprised again, put down the tiger who had opened his eyes, and ran to the king of Cuan Gui, and asked, "Wang, are you here so fast?"

"As soon as Xiaobao and Juanjuan arrived here, I received a letter. I met the person you sent out soon when I got there. God, it's going to change."

Cuangui Wang said weakly, with a sigh in his words. Unlike the locals, he lived in the capital for a period of time. He knows the strength of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. Can he not come in person

Zhang Xiaobao heard the words of Cuangui Wang, and knew that the other party did not want to return to the Tang Dynasty. He is the king here, and his status will decline after he truly submits.

But Zhang Xiaobao will not make any concessions or compromises for the other person alone.

Zhang Xiaobao clasped his fists and saluted: "Envoy Bohai Jiedu has seen Cuangui Wang."

Wang Juan followed: "Bohai Deputy Jiedu, I have seen Cuangui Wang."

In terms of their actual positions, the two people have the first grade of Cuangui Wang. The King Cuangui is the lord, first-rank. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are third-ranks as Jiedu ambassadors, but the Bohai Governor’s Mansion is too big. It is a product.

The king of Cuan Gui returned nervously: "Xiaobao, Juanjuan, the next official pays homage to the two."

The king of Cuan Gui didn't dare to pretend to be big. The two people in front of him were not sheep. When they were in the capital, they knew that people and the emperor of Tang Dynasty were not courteous. The man was civil and military. Who would dare to be presumptuous in front of them? Those who are qualified to accept their ceremonies, except for the Shangshu Zhang Zhong of the Ministry of Industry, who is the general Gao Lishi, that is one dad and another dad.

Now that I was saluted by others first, Cuangui Wang sighed and said, "The one that should be here is here."

"It's not that I said you, just such a small population, how do you live compared to the people in the capital? You can be a king, and I will let you be completely independent now. Are you willing? You want me to live as a country The identity of the country speaks to you?"

Zhang Xiaobao is not polite at all, and points directly to the topic, he has no time to circle with the opponent.

King Cuangui suddenly smiled: "On the way here, the king has already thought about living around a powerful country. Even if the powerful country does not attack, it is a kind of existence in a crack, uncomfortable, but I have a request, I think..."

"You think I will discuss with you when I send the people left to govern the place, to ensure your absolute interests, and at the same time teach you more things, but also to provide you with comprehensive support, especially in terms of force. It crushes you, isn't it?"

Zhang Xiaobao didn't wait for Cuangui Wang to finish speaking, and then continued with the other party's words.

"Little Treasure is indeed Little Treasure. There is no vacant seat under the prestigious name. After you have learned, you will say that you are good at calculating. I am relieved to hear what you say at this moment."

The king of Cuan Gui looked at Zhang Xiaobao and bowed again. Zhang Xiaobao accepted it calmly, and Wang Juan stepped forward and accepted it at the same time.

The king of Cuangui laughed, and Cuan Moah was confused. What are the two parties talking about

"Wang, you..." Cuan Moa asked.

"Since Xiaobao can tell me his plan for me, it means that his plan is more perfect and better than I thought. Compared to building a place, I am far behind Xiaobao. They accept my respect, and naturally they want to be sincere for me. The clan does things. They can seize the power of the Tang Dynasty without seizing it. Why should I care about this nominal power

Have you seen their weapons? You have never been to Datang, and you haven't seen how their lives are. There is a powerful country by the side. The return of my Cuan clan has little impact on them, but it has a big impact on us. I don't want to be attacked by them. We There is not even the strength to resist at all. "

Cuangui Wang said to Cuan Moa.

Cuan Moah sighed. He had seen that kind of weapon, but he felt sorry for his king. After all, he wanted to give up power and at the same time be happy for his clan. With the support of Xiaobao and the cuckoo, his future life will be Better, very conflicted.
