Of course, the tricks played by Rome have nothing to do with the Han Dynasty. For Li You, this is a very good trade agreement.
We have no shortage of silk and high-quality war horses, but Rome does not need high-quality war horses but silk. Isn't this just complementary? So Li You found an outstanding young bureaucrat from Dahonglu and asked him to negotiate with the Romans about purchasing war horses.
Of course, this is just an agreement on how to actually conduct the transaction. Chang'an will send a formal letter to the Roman Parliament. After finalizing the main transaction model, the remaining details will be left to these diplomats to work hard to reach an agreement. However, looking at the situation this year, 80% It's not possible anymore.
After all, it is the end of September. Even if the Han Dynasty and Rome have agreed on a trading model, the transaction may not be possible until next year. However, I think that during the Chinese New Year, Rome will send a group of war horses as gifts, just like when Rome celebrates the New Year, the Han Dynasty will give It's the same as several carts of silk, just a courtesy exchange.
"Are you three planning to go to Fusang?" Li You said, looking at Li Jue and the others. At this time, the three of them nodded repeatedly.
"It's really time to go. The three of you have been stuck at the peak of Qi Qi Chenggang for so many years. You are almost fifty years old now. Even with Weixin holding you back, your condition is about to decline." Li You looked at the three of them. Nodding, Li Jue and the other three were already considered the oldest generals of their generation from the time they fought in Xiliang to today. They took the lead in every battle, and now those old injuries have had some impact.
"The condition is nothing." Li Jue and the other three looked at each other and shook their heads. The three of them had taken good care of themselves, mainly because Congling was the western gateway to the Han Dynasty. When Gai Wen, Hua Tuo, and Zhang Zhongjing went back and forth, they Go over there.
Those three people would check on the injuries of Li Jue and the others every time they passed by. Therefore, after so many years, there were not many old injuries left. Of course, the most important thing is that these three brothers can really fight, and they have not suffered many losses. So I never thought about ascending inner Qi and leaving the body before.
"Oh, does that mean you are dissatisfied with losing to Tachito after drinking?" Li You was like the brain of these three people. He instantly understood what was going on, and then the three of them nodded silently.
"Okay, I'll give you a letter of introduction. You take the letter and go to Donglai to take a boat to Shenxiang. There are rotating garrison over there. You give them the letter of introduction, and they will know what to do. With your With three qualities, promotion should be no problem." After Li You understood the thinking of the three idiots, he didn't think there was anything strange about this behavior and said it was natural.
"Donglai?" Jia Xu looked at Li You and said, "Let them go to Xuzhou. If they go to Donglai, it will be a little embarrassing in terms of face."
Li You thought thoughtfully and nodded. Indeed, there are some things that can be done, not only cannot be said, but like the three Li Jue, although everyone admits that these three are still alive and don't want to worry about those things back then, but If the three of them appeared in front of Liu Tong, it might be really difficult for him to step down.
After all, face seems to be of little use, but it still needs to be taken care of in many cases. As for Qingzhou being so big, it is not easy to encounter anything. For people like Jia Xu, it is best to avoid things that Don't talk about probabilities.
"In that case, let's go to Xuzhou." Li Youwei nodded and said, "You three must remember not to go to Qingzhou, go to Xuzhou, go to Fusang. When you come back, you can go to Qingzhou to avoid Her Royal Highness the Princess who is patrolling the east. "
The three of them, Li Jue, are all good. They don't care about this kind of face. Just like when Guo Si came to Chang'an to have fun, Guo Si sat outside the door to listen to the meeting. He should eat and drink, and there was nothing to be particular about. Ah, sometimes there's no need to be so obtrusive.
"By the way, after I went to Xuzhou, I wiped out the Zhao family." Li You flipped through the official documents from the side, "Qiu Hou Wenzhan thought too much and killed him directly. This is the official document. Take this with you. Also, this is the troop deployment document. With these two, you can take the soldiers on the road."
Zhao Yu's process has been completed, but Li You thinks it's too slow. He still has to wait for Autumn. Forget it, I'll send you an urgent document and let the Lord of Hell come to pick you up.
"No problem, no problem. I'm very good at doing this kind of thing." Li Jue patted his chest and said that he was a professional family exterminator. "What did this family do?"
"Corruption." Li You said concisely and concisely. To be honest, although Zhao Yu was convicted and the whole family was imprisoned and executed together in the autumn, Li You's way of sending the other party on his way in a hurry was somewhat unruly, but everyone present No one raised any objection to this.
In fact, except for Chen Xi who believed that he needed to wait until the end of the year to kill these guys, everyone else in the Government Affairs Department believed that they needed to send these people on their way quickly. However, they did not have a handy knife before, but now that the knife was handed over, Li You used it conveniently.
"Corruption kills the whole family these days?" Li Jue was a little panicked. The three brothers often used public funds to eat and drink.
"An Xin, the little captured food you three ate is not worthy of being killed at all." Li You glanced at the three fools. It is very normal for the army to eat captured food these days, coupled with the external policies and internal policies There is a big gap between control policies. As long as the three idiots do not cause harm at home, they can do whatever they want abroad. Of course, if they are beaten to death, they will only be considered unlucky.
"I've been greedy for 4.6 billion." Lu Su said quietly, "That's why I asked you to send them down quickly. I think the late Emperor who is under the Nine Springs can't wait any longer."
Li Jue and the other three were a little confused. How could they be greedy? How could they be so greedy? Have the three brothers ever seen so much money in their lives? It seems not. When they took over Chang'an, there was more or less money in the treasury, but Compared to this, it's far behind.
"Remember to send their family on their way." Li You waved his hand and said. For such a heinous act of corruption, it is better to be killed than to get a suspended sentence. Even if the King of Hell lets you die in the middle of the night, Li You will have to work overtime to get you on the road ahead of time.
"No problem, no problem." Li Jue nodded hastily.
"Zijing will give you a batch of living expenses and supplies, so that this group of people can go to Fusang as soon as possible, and then return to Congling as soon as possible. We will bump into each other again, and everyone will look bad." Li You turned to Lu Su and said, and then Lu Su After flipping through it, checking with each other, he made a note on the side, and then added hundreds of cavalry to Li Jue and the others, and approved a million living expenses on the spot.
"Okay, this is your living expenses for the rest of the year. You will be divided into cents. The fodder for the horses will be provided by the garrisons in the places where people live. Take the money and buy what you want to buy yourself." Li You said calmly, There are less than 500 people, with an average of 2,000 yuan per person.
To be honest, it's not much, just over two months' salary for a big worker, but the logistics have been arranged, and the amount of money paid is more of a living allowance.
Li Jue and the others took the money and ran away directly. After dividing the points among their men, they took the map and ran out of Chang'an towards Yanzhou. Although they felt safe with Li You and others protecting them, these three people were abroad all year round. God, my second brother is used to it and has a wild temper. Even if he still respects Li You, he doesn't like having an old leader in front of him.
Therefore, they gave some gifts to Li You, Jia Xu, Zhuge Liang and others, and after sending several boxes of very tacky gold bricks to Weiyang Palace, the three brothers went to visit Zhang Ji's widow and gave Zou a gift. The pile of gold, stone and jade articles means that they are still alive. If Zou is wronged in any way, the three brothers can give him an answer.
Zou has been playing the guzheng for several years, but she still has some doubts about the sudden visit of several assassins. After all, in so many years, Guo Bang has only visited once. Unexpectedly, this time three people actually came to the door at the same time. He did not want to see three people. But because of the late husband and the three brothers, they finally let the three people in, and these three brothers really came to see how Zhang Ji's widow was doing.
To be honest, if Mr. Zou had remarried, the three brothers would have ignored it. But if Mr. Zou had not remarried, then the three brothers would have come back after a long time to take a look, burn incense to Zhang Ji, and give some gifts to Zou. Stop by and give some small gifts.
As for coveting, these three brothers don't have much lust.
Mr. Zou had been silent for several years and was a widow at home. How could he really not be able to tell the difference between good and bad? San Sha carried several boxes of gifts, offered incense sticks to Zhang Ji, and was about to leave. Seeing this, Mr. Zou understood that the three brothers I really just came to see my sister-in-law in front of my old brother.
Therefore, Mr. Zou stayed with San Sha to have a meal, and after the meal he talked about Zheng music with San Sha. Of course, things like music, chess, calligraphy and painting were just a cloud to the three of Li Jue, but Mr. Zou’s skills were very powerful, even for San Sha Even if you don't know the melody, you will feel comfortable listening to it.
"I wish the three uncles a safe journey." Zou said, and the drunken Sansha nodded and said that there was no need to send her sister-in-law away. The three of them had other things to go to the east.
San Sha, who left Chang'an, had no idea that the song Zou played for them before leaving was not a farewell piece at all, but a real piece of good luck. Therefore, for a long time after that, San Sha originally The very weird luck became even weirder.
On Taishan's side, Chen Xi and others had already set off for Donglai, and not long after, Liu Xie, who had healed the arrow wound on his buttocks, seemed to have regained his confidence and swelled up again, and then under Zhongji's deception , headed to Xuzhou and prepared to make a comeback in Xuzhou.
As for Fenggao, Liu Xie has completely given up. Of course, Liu Xie will not take revenge or anything like that, because Dongwang Village has left such a deep impression on Liu Xie that Liu Xie cannot even mention it. Thoughts of revenge.
"There's really a lot of food in Yanzhou." Li Jue said with emotion while eating marshmallows that didn't match his style of painting at all. After staying in Congling for a long time, it's really hard to imagine Chang'an. Busy, "Everyone rests in Yanzhou for three days, and then we go south to Xuzhou!"
