The Zhenwa matter came to an end with the arrival of Li Xiaogong. Under the strong foundation of the Tang Dynasty, the nobles of Zhenwa were directly sold by Varman I without any resistance.
And not to mention selling it, they themselves have no way to resist, and not only have no way to resist, no matter what Datang does next, they can only cooperate, and even... they still watch and don't let others destroy it. If If the damage is blamed on them, wouldn't they be the unlucky ones?
The old and new masters alternated, and Zhenwa completely changed his master. For Datang, these people were completely dispensable, and it would even be better for Datang to kill them directly.
But Datang obviously didn't want to get off to a bad start, so it gave them a chance. What else could they do? We can only continue.
Otherwise, their results will be no different from those of the leftist prime ministers in the Queen Kingdom next door, and they will all be dead by the sword.
News about Zhenwa happened faster because Zhenwa borders Linyi and the Tang Dynasty. It is also the main target of trade between the Tang Dynasty and several Southeast Asian countries. Therefore, the people of Zhenwa reported this within a few days. The news was spread everywhere, and some businessmen running orders also brought the news to all directions.
However, this is not good news for these businessmen, because once the real wax belongs to the Tang Dynasty, the materials they sell will definitely have to be sold at the price of the Tang Dynasty, and then they will not have such high profits. .
Of course, their purchase cost is not that high. The problem is that even if the purchase cost has been reduced many times, their profits have also been reduced many times.
If they had a choice, they would rather choose the way it was before. Anyway, they don't care how expensive the purchase is, they can just sell it more expensively.
Now, if we can't find a better and more reasonable way of doing business, it is estimated that many people will give up doing business.
What makes them even more helpless is that after the goods were delivered, it was obvious that the biggest profit was made by Datang, but the bad reputation was all caused by them, real businessmen, who made them sell the goods directly. These common people may be sold to people in Zhenwa China.
At Guangzhou Port, Benli Shetai who arrived here naturally heard the news. When she learned the news, she was also a little speechless.
But while I was speechless, I was also a little impressed. This Varman I made a good choice. In this case, all the benefits would be taken away by himself, and the nobles of Zhenwa would be in trouble.
If a country is sold by the royal family, other things can be easily obtained. It is estimated that those nobles are stupid, and they did not expect that someone would actually sell their country directly.
Although these have nothing to do with Benli Shetai, life in the future will be different from before. People always have to have some fun, right?
In Chang'an City, Li Ke looked at the telegram in his hand. He was also surprised. He never expected that Zhenwa would be directly taken over by Datang. It seemed that there were many smart people in this world.
The so-called Sima Zhao's intentions are known to everyone. It seems that as the Tang Dynasty becomes more and more powerful, all actions of the Tang Dynasty will no longer be concealed, or it will not be easy to mislead others.
When your country is powerful to a certain extent, others will naturally be wary of you, but it doesn't matter. Now the rest of the Tang Dynasty are basically targets that need to be dealt with directly.
In addition, there is no one worthy of Datang's tricks. The reason why they played tricks before is because they all belong to the Cultural Circle of Datang. To be precise, these countries are deeply influenced by Datang, and they are also influenced by Datang. Tang's basic plan.
After taking over these countries, in order to rule better, Datang must of course consider its own influence.
As for the remaining places, Datang had plenty of time, and some impacts were insignificant.
But suddenly three more countries came out. It seems that the number of officials is still in short supply, but this is a good thing.
"Xu Song." Li Ke called Xu Song over directly.
"Your Highness."
"To give some motivation to the candidates for next year's imperial examination, we will draft a document on how to govern the three states that will join the Tang Dynasty: Zhenwa Prefecture, Taiyue Prefecture, and Burma Prefecture, and how to manage the local people so that the local people can more quickly Issues such as integrating into the Tang Dynasty and how to develop the local economy are left to Li Tai."
"Let Li Tai be responsible for adding these questions to the imperial examination next year. Of course, this news cannot be leaked, but I can give them a little hint. If they don't even realize this, you can't blame me."
"This document will be released tomorrow and it will be said that the three new states in Datang lack a large number of grassroots officials. In addition to the highest-level state chief executives, the remaining county officials and the main heads of various departments will Select from among the outstanding candidates in the imperial examination after the year." Li Ke touched his chin and said.
"Yes!" Xu Song immediately bowed and saluted.
"By the way, Ryukyu State will also be added to it." Li Ke added that Ryukyu will be the name of the future Japanese country after it is renamed. I heard that the war is probably almost over, and Datang will not be involved. Bumurashita can handle it himself.
Anyway, I heard that the nobles and the emperor of the Japanese country were at the end of their wars and were like caged birds. The main reason was that none of them had the advantage of the right time, place, and people. Although Monobe Murakata's methods were cruel and iron-blooded, he treated the grassroots Well done to the people.
Moreover, with the food support of the Tang Dynasty, Mononobu Village should not be too happy. There is no shortage of food in his hands at all. In the beginning of the war, some Japanese nobles played some tricks of mutual destruction. If you want to kill me, , I will burn all the food and other things.
But Mononobe Murakata doesn't care about these things at all. You can burn them as you like, and I won't be short of food at all. Will I care about these?
His Majesty the Tang Dynasty provided me with the food at cost price. As for where the money came from, the wealth of these nobles for hundreds of years was collected by the Mononobe villagers, but he didn't leave any for himself. They were all sent back to His Highness.
Anyway, Mononobe Murakata saw it very clearly. If he did well enough, he would never be short of money in his life. Why would he need so much? Sometimes you just need to grasp a goal and hug it hard. Don't think too much.
It is easy to get into trouble if you are half-hearted. This is how Mononobe Murakata behaves. In other words, this is how a considerable part of the culture of the entire Japanese country is like this.
