God-level Governor of the Tang Dynasty

He couldn't help sighing: "I feel that even if these people know the purpose of the lord, that is to drag them into the water, they will not back down."

The word "benefit" is the most harmful.

Throughout the ages, how many people can really ignore interests, very few.

"If you knew that there was a gold mine in a place that was rich in gold, but there were many poisonous snakes around it, would you dig the gold mine?" Hearing what he said, Wang Xiu waved his hands and smiled.

Zhang He's eyes turned green, and he immediately jumped up.

"Damn it, it's said to be an incomparably rich gold mine. Why don't you care about poisonous snakes? Prepare realgar or something, just go straight to it."

"Hahaha."

Everyone couldn't help laughing, even Wang Xiu couldn't help smiling, Zhang He seemed to be a money fan too.

No wonder this time back from Chenla, Chenla almost paid a huge price to settle it.It is said that after Zhang He left, Chenla was so happy that he sang a song.

It can be seen that this guy in Chenla is definitely at the level of Zhou Papi.

But what he said was the truth. In the face of the wealth that can rival a country, everything else seems relatively unimportant.

Li Shimin naturally understood this truth.

So he made a move, and divided the huge Yanhe income into four parts, one part was given to himself, one part was given to the emperor's relatives, one part was given to the princes and ministers, and the last part was given to Wang Xiu.

This can be said to be the same as the rain and dew, and anyone can gain something.

Obviously, Li Shimin is well aware of the interests of this salt river, and if it is eaten by several families, it may be possible to win them over in a short time.

But after a long time, the tail will be too big to drop.

Because once the money has accumulated to a certain point, his ambition will also expand. This is not good news. He is not stupid and naturally he will not let his subordinates have this opportunity.

As for Wang Xiu's share, there is really no way.

First of all, this Salt River was discovered by Wang Xiu, and Wang Xiu needed force to control it, so Wang Xiu couldn't avoid it.

Based on this alone, it can be seen that Li Shimin is a smart person, who can control them perfectly without making others feel dissatisfied.

Wang Xiu is not very interested in what Li Shimin thinks. What he needs is time. With enough time for development, he doesn't have to worry about Li Shimin and Tubo in the future.

On the other hand, Pang Tong thought about it, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, this strategy is not bad, but it is a huge benefit. It would be a pity to give up like this. Can we find new salt wells and develop them alone?"

How much table salt does this salt river need? That is definitely a terrible amount.

It would be such a pity to give up like this.

"Haha, it's just a salt river, and I, Wang Xiu, can still afford it. Salt is not the only thing that makes money in this world."

A smile appeared on the corner of Wang Xiu's mouth. For him, making money couldn't be easier.

Just because table salt is just a bigger cake doesn't mean he's the only one.

"Just a salt river?"

Everyone couldn't help opening their mouths, and looked at Wang Xiu with a dumbfounded look on their faces. My lord is too arrogant.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this Salt River is a real gold mine, but it is nothing more than that, it is too unreasonable.

"My lord, do you have any new business?" Pang Tong said excitedly, his eyes lit up.

Wang Xiu nodded and said with a smile, "Of course, do you know the origin and name of the road leading to Tubo?"

Hearing Wang Xiu's question, everyone couldn't help looking at each other, this road has a ghostly name, it's really a place where birds don't shit.

If Wang Xiu hadn't invited Tubo this time, it would be difficult for anyone to leave for the rest of his life.

Everyone shook their heads, only Xiaojiu on one side's eyes lit up. She thought of what Lang Jun said last time when he took her to Erhai Lake, and she immediately remembered it.

"I see, Mr. Lang said this should be called the Ancient Tea Horse Road!"

Xiaojiu was triumphant, but he alone knew about such an important matter.

"Tea-Horse Road?"

"Tea and horses?"

"It should be tea. The horses here are not very good."

Everyone frowned slightly and began to guess.This tea is easy to explain, but this horse is very scarce these days, obviously it is not a war horse.

Wang Xiu nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, it's tea. For nomads, tea is an indispensable thing for them."

"Indispensable?"

"Yes, because their diet is beef, mutton and milk. These are greasy and smelly things, and they are not good for digestion. They need tea to reconcile them. Once they taste the benefits, they can't give up."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but suddenly realized that it was so.

In this way, not only Tubo, but Turks and other places also need a lot of tea.

Pang Tong couldn't help crying and laughing, and said with a wry smile, "I said last time how the black-toothed people laughed so happily. It turns out that they got rich this time."

That's right, this time Wang Xiu Nanzhao established a super large tea garden base.

Except for a small number of paddy fields to keep rice, most of the rest of the mountainous areas have been planted with tea trees, directly opening large tea gardens.

Soon these tea leaves will enter Tubo and become their sacred drink.

Chapter 208 Both Shengyu and He Shengliang

At this time, the door was knocked suddenly, and Qinglong's voice came.

"My lord, Taoist Yuan Tiangang asks to see you."

Yuan Tiangang?

Wang Xiu's heart moved, it seemed that the position of the Hero Tower had been fixed, otherwise he would not have come here, this old guy is a cunning master, he knows how to seek good luck and avoid bad luck.

After winking with everyone, Wang Xiu directly asked Qinglong to let him in.

But what Wang Xiu never expected was that he wasn't the only one who came, there was someone who he didn't expect at all.

"Daoist Yuan, why are you here with Brother Liang?" Wang Xiu asked with a strange expression on his face.

The other person was actually Liang Yucheng, who followed Yuan Tiangang, and he didn't know what his purpose was.

Shouldn't this guy be busy building a cotton base now? Why is he here in Jiaozhou now? The cotton seeds produced by this system are not afraid of the weather. He should be very busy now.

However, unlike last time, he is full of vigor at this moment, and people can't help but pay attention to him.

Yuan Tiangang smiled and said: "It's just a coincidence that the governor of Liang seems to have something to do with the governor, so let's talk first."

"happen?"

Wang Xiu nodded and looked at Liang Yucheng.

Embarrassment flashed across Liang Yucheng's eyes, and he smiled and said, "Brother Wang, to be honest, I have something to ask you for help this time, so I have to come here."

To be honest, he was still a little embarrassed, because he stole his business.

Now that the mysterious businessman turned to him, Jiaozhou has been quiet for a long time.

Ask me for help?

Wang Xiu glanced at him, and said quietly: "Which one of us brothers is with whom, you can just talk about anything, I have absolutely nothing to say."

"I want to borrow someone!"

puff!

Hearing his words, Wang Xiu took a sip of tea and said dumbfounded: "What do you want to borrow? Your Guangzhou is the place with the most Taoists in the whole of Lingnan, right? Are you asking me to borrow someone?"

What are you thinking about?

"Hehe, isn't it my brother's supernatural powers? You have a lot of Kunlun slaves in your hands. Lend me to grow cotton. I can give you money." Liang Yucheng rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed and said.

Wang Xiu was stunned for a moment, and said strangely: "You don't need so many people to grow cotton, do you?"

"Yes, absolutely!" Liang Yucheng said solemnly.

"How much?"

"fifty thousand!"

Wang Xiu rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Brother, you don't mean to rebel, right? Fifty thousand Kunlun slaves, what do you want to do?"

Liang Yucheng's face turned pale, and he quickly shook his head, not daring to say such nonsense.

The princess is here now, if he goes back and tells the emperor, he will never even think about going back to Chang'an for the rest of his life, maybe he will be taken away.

"Brother, don't worry, I'm definitely not rebelling, but I want to grow too many things and need labor. I can rent them at twice the price."

Hearing these words, Wang Xiu suddenly regained his energy.

"Okay! But Kunlun slaves are very energetic, and their work efficiency is not high. Don't blame me."

Liang Yucheng became ruthless, and sneered, "Then eunuch them, and naturally they won't be prosperous."

"Damn, you're still ruthless, that's fine!" Wang Xiu couldn't help giving a thumbs up. This is definitely a ruthless person, and he is about to eunuch.

Liang Yucheng chuckled, and wanted to thank Wang Xiu for his righteousness. This time, he had made a huge contribution.

But at this moment, he saw the golden fish talisman in Wang Xiu's hand at a glance, and his eyes almost popped out.

Golden Fish Talisman!

"Brother, is this a fish charm?"

For a moment, he had the urge to cry.

The so-called fish charm is actually the work card of ancient officials. It has two fish charms on both sides, one side is kept in the bottom and the other side is worn.

When necessary, the two are combined to determine the identity.

The fish charm is not only an ID card, but also a symbol of the ability to deploy troops. This is not an ordinary thing.

Although he is the governor of Guangzhou, he can be regarded as a third-rank official. The emperor didn't give him a fish talisman, but he actually gave Wang Xiu one. This is simply envy and hatred.

This kid has only been in office for less than half a year, this is too unfair.

It was simply crushed ruthlessly.

He comforted himself silently in his heart, as long as he completed the cotton base this time, he would definitely be able to enter the eyes of the emperor, and maybe he would be rewarded with fish charms and fish bags.

Seeing Liang Yucheng's gaze, Wang Xiu couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, this fish talisman is a reward from the emperor, I believe Brother Liang will get this reward soon."

This goldfish talisman is what Li Shimin rewarded last time!

Of course, he also had a fish talisman before, but it was just a copper fish talisman.At that time, his rank was not high, he was acting as the governor, but he was only a fifth rank, and a copper fish charm was already good.

After all, Li Shimin didn't expect Wang Xiu to sit still and prepare for the next distribution.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiu resisted and even soared into the sky.Now, after several upgrades, he has become the governor, and has officially entered the sequence from the second rank.

This means that he has the qualification to wear the Goldfish Talisman, which was bestowed by Li Shimin himself, which is not ordinary.

In fact, Liang Yucheng is also qualified to wear the Goldfish Talisman, but it is a pity that Li Shimin probably forgot about this person, so he was not rewarded, which is too sad.

It's also because Guangzhou Mansion is too remote, otherwise, it would definitely not have been forgotten to this extent.

"Hey, since Shengyu, why Shengliang!"

Liang Yucheng smiled wryly, and after he sighed, he immediately disappeared.

When he came, he was full of spirits, but at this time, he left dejectedly like an eggplant beaten by frost.

This can't be compared, this guy Wang Xiu is really too strong.

Seeing his back, Yuan Tiangang said with a smile: "Governor Liang Yucheng has worked hard this time, contacted many aristocratic families to participate, and covered most of Lingnan Road, and they will follow him to plant cotton and other crops. Naturally, it will take a lot of money." Manpower."

Hearing his explanation, Wang Xiu couldn't help being dumbfounded.

"Holy shit, this Liang Yucheng really has a lot of courage. Most of Lingnan Road is too big. Planting all of them at once is going to be crazy."

This kid is a ruthless man who can do great things.

I just got the state capital under the governor's mansion. This guy even counted other state capitals in it.

However, the Guangzhou Metropolitan Government has many jurisdictions, which is no less than that of the Zhennan Metropolitan Government, and there are not many problems.

Pang Tong couldn't help smiling wryly when he heard the words: "Actually, this matter has something to do with you, my lord."

"It has something to do with me?"

"That's right, Jiaozhou has now become the granary of the Tang Dynasty, and it has fought a huge turnaround all at once. Can other state capitals not be in a hurry, and naturally they must seize this opportunity."
