Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

After hearing this, Li Shen pretended to be in deep thought. Li Shimin, who was standing beside him, could vaguely see a smile on the corner of Li Shen's mouth.

He immediately knew that the suggestion just made by this rebellious son was just a decoy, and what he was going to propose next was his real purpose.

Sure enough, Li Shen pondered for a long time before raising his head and sighing.

"Alas~~~~~You are right, I am a little greedy.

Now that I have decided to fully support your Hashim family, I should show some sincerity.

Since you said that the Hashemites have connections to sell high-quality goods, then let's do this.

After our Ji Wang Palace transported the goods to the Arab Empire, we sold them all to your Hashim family.

After that, no matter how much you are willing to sell it for or how much money you earn, it will have nothing to do with me.

But you can’t let me suffer a loss, I will add 50% of the profit.”

"this......."

Amis was a little hesitant, as he was very tempted by King Ji's conditions.

Tang Dynasty's silk, porcelain, jade, and tea were all very popular commodities in the Western Regions.

The price is outrageous.

All buyers must be people of status and position.

It’s just that the distance is long, transportation is inconvenient, and the price is very expensive.

Therefore, the number of goods that can be brought back each time is not much.

It takes a year to bring back a shipload, which is not enough for them to sell.

It’s not that they don’t want to send more ships, but the shipbuilding technology is kept secret, especially the ships that can sail on the sea for a long time.

It requires even higher technology.

Each ship is very expensive to build.

Furthermore, the situation at sea is changeable, the weather is bad, and pirates are rampant, so losses can occur at any time.

It was already good enough that the Hashim family could give him three large ships this time, and they were transferred from other places.

If King Ji could transport large quantities of goods to Daqin, it would save them the cost and risk of a round trip.

However, although Amis is the leader of the fleet, he cannot make the decisions.

“Your Majesty, I cannot make the decision on this matter. I need to return to the Hashim Family and report to them. The final outcome still needs to be decided by the family.

But I think they should consider it carefully.

After all, this is also a testimony to our friendship.”

Amis replied truthfully.

Li Shen smiled slightly:

“Haha, of course I know this, so I said I would let you go back, and I will also return your ship to you.

But one of their ships accidentally hit a reef and sank into the sea, so you can only sail two ships back."

"Sunk? Oh, it sank, so it sank. This may be the Lord's arrangement.

Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ji, and the soldiers I brought with me......"

"Don't worry, your soldiers are all good. When you arrive in Guangzhou, they will follow you back to Daqin."

Li Shen seemed very generous.

Amis was a little excited when he heard that his ship had sunk, but he calmed down immediately and thought, "It's okay if it sinks."

There will be at least two more ships.

Although the loss of a ship was a huge loss, the most important thing now was that they could return to the Arab world.

Nothing else matters.

He didn't believe the nonsense that King Ji said. How could such a big ship sink just like that?

And there were three ships together, but one of them sank.

However, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Even if King Ji said he would not give it to him, he had to nod in agreement. Now he even made up a reason for him, which was the greatest respect for him.

Of course the ship did not sink. After Li Shen learned that he had obtained three ships from the Arab Empire, he immediately gave the order:

A ship from the Kingdom of the Arabs was brought to the shipyard in Fuzhou for the craftsmen there to observe and learn from, and the ship was disassembled and blueprinted.

See if there are any advanced features of the ships of the Arab Empire that can be applied to their ships.

The meat was finally in his mouth, so Li Shen had to take a bite.

Hearing that King Ji allowed him to take the soldiers with him, Amis bowed again to express his gratitude.

Li Shen waved his hand.

"No need to thank me. This is just my way of showing my sincerity. We can be considered as friends after fighting.

Here is a letter written by this king himself, with his personal seal on it.

It says in it that the king feels deep sympathy and regret for the betrayal suffered by your Hashimite family.

In order to maintain our legitimacy as a royal family, I am willing to support you, the Hashemite family.

Everything is written inside, and you can give it to your clan leader when you return."

Li Shen took out a letter. Wang De beside him did not give any instructions this time, but took the initiative to hand the letter to Amis.

By the way, I glanced at the cover.

There were a few words written on it, written personally by the patriarch of the Hashemite family.

It's neat and tidy and looks so familiar.

This Prince Ji is so shameless. It was clearly written by the Chief Secretary of Prince Ji’s Mansion, but he has the audacity to say that he wrote it himself?

Amis took it and took a look. The letter was sealed and marked.

He didn't understand what sealing lacquer meant, but he knew that this was probably a method used by the Tang Dynasty to prevent others from opening the letter and reading it.

"Don't worry, Your Highness Prince Ji. I will personally hand it over to the clan leader."

Amis carefully put away the letter.

Li Shen nodded.

“Very good, as a token of sincerity, I will give you two ships full of porcelain and silk.

Consider it a gift from the King to your HaShem family.

But this is not the kind of goods we trade, it's just something good for you.

But for my Ji Wang Mansion, it can only be regarded as a low-end product.

You go back and tell your clan leader that the top-grade products that I am talking about are things that you ordinary people have never seen. Only the great nobles of our Tang Dynasty are qualified to enjoy them.

It will definitely open your eyes, and it’s a hundred times better than what you transport.”

"Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness. I will definitely convey your words to you."

Amis was no longer surprised. There were too many surprises today, and what King Ji said was highly credible.

Everyone in the Tang Dynasty knew that Prince Ji was a prodigal son who was greedy for pleasure and always used the most expensive and best things.

It is rumored that even a brick in the toilet of Prince Ji’s Mansion is of the same quality that cannot be found anywhere else.

"Okay, we have discussed everything. You should get ready today. Tomorrow the king will send someone to escort you to the Guangzhou Governor's Mansion.

This king hopes that our cooperation this time will be successful, and I hope that your Hashim family can take back what belongs to you.

But until then, I hope you, the Hashemite family, will not forget me.

You should know that I only care about wealth. I will cooperate with whoever I can make money with. I don’t care about anything else.”

After Li Shen finished speaking, he stood up and took the initiative to step forward to support Li Shimin.

Li Shimin took advantage of the situation to stand up and walked out of the cell expressionlessly.

"Farewell to His Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness Prince Ji."

(Forgot to wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

I didn’t have a good Mid-Autumn Festival either. The mother of a childhood friend of mine passed away, and I was busy for several days.

Wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

Today is 918, let me say "Never forget the national humiliation" to make me look more patriotic.
