Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

The third thing is that families of soldiers continue to move over from Guanzhong to take refuge with their sons and brothers who are soldiers in the Anxi Army.Each soldier can obtain 150 mu of fertile military land, which is incomparably attractive to farmers. All of them are moved by the whole family. One hundred acres of Dingkou field.

The Anxi Army has more than [-] soldiers and tens of thousands of land.However, for the Western Regions, the reclamation of this field is less than one-tenth of the reclamation of later generations.

As a result, the population of Xizhou Road has risen sharply, surpassing the peak period of one million people, and it is still growing steadily. In addition to the Han slaves rescued from the Tubo Plateau, it is very easy for the total population to break through the 150 million mark. .

All in all, everything is moving in a good direction. With everyone working together, it is not impossible for the Western Regions to become the West Dacang.

Chen Ying was even more excited. He led the army and marched long distances, training while marching. At the same time, he was inspecting the six counties of Populus euphratica, Hewan, Jingjue, Hongta, Miquan, and Weihu, and watched the houses stand upright. From then on, Chen Ying was overjoyed to watch the new towns change their appearance every day.

When Chen Ying inspected Miquan County, Miquan County had become bustling with people.There is a lot of rice spring water, so the grass is lush. The industrious Zhao Boying led his people to use their skillful hands to not only build a new home, but also use these worthless weeds to weave straw hats, straw sandals, straw mats, and coir raincoats. Tables, boxes, beard beds, and all kinds of work furniture, using these handicrafts, exchange sheep and leather goods with the surrounding nomadic tribes...

Chen Ying was about to enter Miquan City accompanied by Zhao Boying. At this moment, Li Daozhen came on horseback. When the galloping horse arrived within three steps of Chen Ying, Li Daozhen got off his horse and said to Chen Ying: "Chen Lang, there is a Big merchants are looking for you to buy cotton!"

Despite the spinning mills, cotton is still not consumed cleanly.At this time, there are merchants who want to buy cotton, and it is almost dozed off, and someone sends a pillow.

This was a major event, so Chen Ying naturally didn't dare to neglect it, and hurriedly led the people towards Mulan City.

……

In Mulan City, in the guardhouse of the capital of the Western Regions, a woman in white with long sleeves fluttering was sitting in the living room drinking tea upright, behind him stood a few tall men in bare hands, their palms were covered with thick calluses , muscular, fierce eyes, obviously his bodyguard.

The lady in white turned her back to Chen Ying, even though she knew that Chen Ying had come to the hall, she still sat on the soft couch, motionless.

A businessman, so rude, Chen Ying felt a little displeased, if it wasn't for the generous gift she put on the table, Chen Ying would have invited her out.

"It's fragrant and refreshing. Before I drink it, my mouth and tongue are full of fluids, and I feel comfortable all over. Good tea, really good tea." After drinking a cup of tea, the woman in white reluctantly put down the teacup, clicked her mouth and said, "It's really good." I didn't expect my little cousin to be so proficient in tea ceremony, he is really a wonderful person..."

Hearing this, Chen Ying widened his eyes, looked at Yang Rong in disbelief and said, "Big cousin, why are you here?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Big cousin, why are you here?" Chen Ying looked at Yang Rong in surprise, this beautiful woman who was one in a thousand in terms of figure and appearance.Usually, a woman who can laugh is always pleasing to the eye, and Yang Rong is the best among women.

Regardless of age, Yang Rong is more than enough to be Chen Ying's mother. However, when she stood with Li Xiuning and said that Yang Rong and Li Xiuning were sisters, no one would doubt this.

Chen Ying also felt strange, Yang Rong and Wu Zetian in history are both monsters.In later generations, Yang Rong and Wu Zetian, the mother and daughter, are very famous, especially the wife of Rong Guo, Yang Rong. She and her grandson He Lanmin have a daughter-in-law relationship, which is a widely circulated bridge in the Miscellaneous Records of Unofficial History.

Chen Ying was very skeptical about this.Calculating from age, He Lanminzhi is the son of Wu Zetian’s sister, Mrs. Wu Shun from South Korea. The age gap between the two is very wide. It can be said that when He Lanminzhi was born, Yang Rong was already in her 40s.

Of course, when Wu Zetian ascended the throne and the brothers Nafeng Xiaobao and Zhang Yizhi were male favorites, they were also in their 70s.Even if Yang Rong is really lustful, the key is that He Lanminzhi can really eat meat and vegetables?

I am afraid that the truth of history is that He Lan almost defiled Princess Taiping and seduced the Crown Princess. Perhaps this made Wu Zetian unbearable, so he ordered the killer to enumerate all his crimes, so that he could die convincingly.When she couldn't do it, she put a big hat on her mother.

While Chen Ying was thinking about it, Yang Rong smiled slightly and said, "Why...you don't welcome me, little cousin?"

"No...No, absolutely not!" Chen Ying smiled softly: "Since my cousin likes it, let's play for a while, and the autumn harvest will be in a while. In the Western Regions, there are millions of acres of grain fields." You won’t be able to see the scene in Hongdae in the customs, and then you can feast your eyes!”

Yang Rong said with a smile: "I've heard of the pleasant scenery in the Western Regions for a long time. The local customs, food, and cultural atmosphere here are all fascinating. I really have to stay here for a while. Is it convenient?"

Chen Ying waved his hand and said: "There are not so many stinky rules on Xizhou Road. If you are interested, you can buy one in the Western Regions, build a castle of your own, and become the owner of the castle behind closed doors!"

Yang Rong said happily: "That's great, I really have such an idea, your Chenjiabao is well built, I also want such a castle..."

"You can walk around, and I'll send you a team of guards. If you like a place, I'll approve it for you!" Chen Ying exchanged pleasantries with Yang Rong for a while, and slowly got into the subject: "Big cousin, I don't know what you're doing this time." What are you planning to do when you come to the Western Regions? I heard that you are interested in cotton from the Western Regions?"

Yang Rong said lightly: "Yes, this is the main purpose of my coming to the Western Regions. In fact, I want to buy cotton. Cotton is good for keeping warm, but they say that the output is insufficient, but the Western Regions are my little cousin. You are promoting , I will definitely spare some of it for me, of course, if you can also sell me the planting technology, that would be even better."

Chen Yingdao waved his hands and said, "Don't think about planting techniques. Now all the fields in the pass are mainly used for growing grain. Even if it is sold to you, you have no place to grow it. What's more, the yield of this kind of thing is extremely low. Cotton is only fifty or sixty catties, and the cotton velvet that has been plucked is only twenty or thirty catties, and they are all used to grow cotton. What do ordinary people eat? However, it is easy for you to ask for cotton. Tell me, how much do you want?"

Yang Rong raised her palm, stretched out five fingers and said, "At least..."

"50 catties!" Chen Ying said straightforwardly: "50 catties is 50 catties, right? No problem! It won't exceed three months, I guarantee you will have enough!"

Yang Rong didn't dare to expect so much. She thought that even if Chen Ying gave her face, it would be good to have five or sixty thousand catties.You must know that the Wang family in Taiyuan only got 50 catties of cotton.However, Yang Rong is also a smart person. She heard the meaning behind Chen Ying's words. He still has a lot of cotton.Yang Rong was a little surprised and said: "[-] catties is not a small amount, is it really okay?"

Chen Ying said domineeringly: "I said there is no problem, so it's okay. By the way, do you want cotton cloth? High-quality cotton cloth!"

Yang Rong suddenly became excited.In addition to cotton, she needs cotton cloth that is strong, smooth, breathable, and absorbs sweat, especially for underwear, which is very comfortable to wear next to the body.She also thought of a lot of ways in advance, including buying money, seductive sex and so on, but she never expected that before she could use these tricks, Chen Ying would ask her if she wanted cotton cloth. !She was so excited that she said, "Yes! Yes! Of course!"

Chen Yingdao: "What are you going to pay for?"

Yang Rong said: "Will [-]% of the shares of Datang Tongli Bank be made?"

Chen Ying smiled brightly: "Okay, of course there is no problem!"

Chen Yingmaliu's offer...Of course it was the lion who opened his mouth, and Yang Rong bargained with him as a matter of course, picking at pennies for pennies, and finally settled the deal with cotton at a price of one hundred pennies per catty.The price of copper coins in the Tang Dynasty was almost equivalent to RMB 400 per penny (the forum data is not accurate). A catty of cotton was sold for more than 15 yuan, which is considered a sky-high price. You must know that the wholesale price of cotton tires in later generations is actually It is only 100 yuan, and a quilt is about [-] yuan.Now it is almost thirty times the price of later generations.

Make big!

As for the cotton cloth, it was sold at a price of [-] yuan a piece, which was more than three times the price of silk.In fact, buying cotton cloth is far worse than selling cotton, but Chen Ying thinks about it in the long run. Once the price is too high, the common people will definitely not be able to afford it.

In any case, 50 catties is about five guan.

One hundred thousand horses and one hundred thousand guan.With the money of 15 pennies flowing into Chen Ying's pocket, Chen Ying made a lot of money in one fell swoop!

……

When he first entered the closed room, Changsun Wuji wanted to laugh a little.It's just such a small shabby house, can you still make yourself surrender?Chen Ying was a little too naive.

Because Chen Ying didn't explain the pain to Changsun Wuji, the first thing Changsun Wuji did when he entered was to fall asleep.These days, he has been worried about what method Chen Ying will think of against him, so Changsun Wuji has been worried.It's all right now, Chen Ying has shown him the chariots and horses, and he only needs to stay in this small house for ten days and ten nights before he can be released.

Chen Ying was always the sharp sword hanging over Changsun Wuji's head in the Protectorate of the Western Regions where water couldn't get in, so Changsun Wuji couldn't eat well, and couldn't sleep soundly.

Even though it was nearly a year, Changsun Wuji didn't deliberately lose weight, and he also ate big fish and meat, but because he maintained a high level of mental tension, his body didn't recover.The fist landed on his body, but Changsun Wuji felt much more at ease, and he began to sleep carefree.

This sleep lasted for seven hours, and Changsun Wuji woke up naturally.Looking at the dark confinement room, he didn't know how long it had been now. He touched his shriveled belly, and Changsun Wuji patted the door of the closed room, which was wrapped in iron, and shouted loudly: " Ben Changshi is hungry, hurry up and bring some food over!"

I don't know how long it took, when Changsun Wuji thought that Chen Ying was going to starve him to death in this small confinement room, the one-foot-square grid above Changsun Wuji's head suddenly opened from it, and a ray of light came through from the outside.

Changsun Wuji's eyes could not adapt to the sudden strong light, so he covered his eyes with his hands.However, this glimmer of light disappeared in just an instant, and darkness returned to the confinement room.

Changsun Wuji groped in the dark and found that there was a large pot of boiled mutton in the tray, half a fat chicken, a large bowl of rice weighing a catty, and four steamed buns weighing half a catty. There is also a small dish of salted soybeans.

Changsun Wuji was not worried that Chen Ying would be poisoned, he ate a meal hungrily, and after he was full, Changsun Wuji lay on the small bed. For the time being, he couldn't feel the horror of the confinement room, but now he thought about it. Most of them are how to get revenge on Chen Ying when they gain freedom and power in the future.

"Killed with one knife?"

Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji shook his head.He felt that it was too cheap to deal with Chen Ying like this. He wanted to peel off Chen Ying's skin at this moment, and even thought viciously, find a fast horse, tie Chen Ying's hands, and let the fast horse drag Chen Ying away. , Let Chen Ying die of exhaustion.

Of course, this is just Changsun Wuji's wishful thinking. He can deal with Chen Ying, but Chen Ying must not die. If he kills Chen Ying before the relationship between Li Xiuning and Chen Ying breaks down, I am afraid it will not end. Seriously, Li Shimin will never be able to protect him.

otherwise?An idea flashed in Changsun Wuji's head, or else he would find a few prostitutes with heart disease to seduce Chen Ying, and let Chen Ying contract this heart disease?

In this way, Li Xiuning would definitely be angry with Chen Ying. Once the relationship between husband and wife broke down, Chen Ying's death would be imminent.

However, this idea is doomed to be just an idea, because the six concubines around Chen Ying, Li Daozhen, He Yueer, including Xu Erniang, all have their own merits and good looks.I'm afraid Chen Ying didn't fall for it so easily...
