Chapter 1925

Just as Ji Congyou and Li Yuanshu were standing in the gate building talking and laughing, a figure stepped up the stairs with a hurried pace. This is Li Huai, the inner court manager.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yuan Shu, director Liang of Liu Guo's Department of foreign affairs of the Ministry of Security reported that Liu Guohai merchants were detained in Qufu. It seems that he was talking about arms business with Xiao Guang before."

In fact, the security department newly established by Ji Congyou has great power. The internal affairs department is equivalent to the royal guards and the Imperial City Department. It supervises hundreds of officials, and the foreign affairs department supervises foreign countries. Of course, with the size of the state of Lu, their Liu Guochu, Zhao Guochu and Shang Guochu are estimated to be within the state of Lu's own chassis in the short term, The ability to spy on those foreigners.

Even so, after hearing this, Ji Congyou was still in front of him, and even Li Huai couldn't help laughing. "The first director of the foreign affairs department is an official who was personally discovered and promoted by the king. In just two or three days, he not only noticed the existence of Liu's business, but also speculated about the general goal."

We are all of the same kind. In fact, if you don't deliberately show your own characteristics, it's not difficult to enter other countries and pretend to be the people of other countries.

Thousands of miles of different sounds? Don't be funny. Who can run international routes in HNA can't speak authentic Mandarin inherited from the ancient prosperous Tang Dynasty?

After laughing, Li Yuanshu looked at Ji Congyou, but Ji Congyou also looked at Li Yuanshu, "Sir, this involves foreign war, mainly depends on what you mean."

Most of the property of the Xiao family was naturally confiscated. During the three-day construction period, all the property of the gentry and haos were seized. Some of the dandies and evil people recognized in the past were mercilessly killed.

Therefore, whether to do this international business or not depends on Li Yuanshu's statement.

Li Yuanshu was silent for a moment before he said reluctantly, "although I also think that the East and the West should be roughly peaceful, it can't stand... The merchant jackals, tigers and leopards are rampant. If he refuses Liu, he will help the Principality of ventra invade our Chinese Miao people."

"Sell, as long as Liu Guo's price is appropriate, he must trade."

Unlike the state of Lu, which is backed by a big business and has a broad background, the state of Liu is too far away from both Shang and Tang, and it is not an important traffic road on the sea, so it can be called barren and barren.

A small and weak country like Liu Guo can survive now by a steady stream of wars and war profits.

A country with a total population of more than 1 million has a weak hematopoietic capacity, regardless of agriculture and industry. Liu Guoneng has lived well for 200 years since the founding of the people's Republic of China. The main reason is that before the founding of the people's Republic of China... That is, a pirate leader with a fleet robbed the caravans and even the army of Western principalities and kingdoms.

The robbed goods were sold to the state of Lu or the state of Zhao and so on.

Each generation of heir to King Liu's office is a wolf king killed by the former state Lord.

But that's how the Principality of ventra was established.

These two countries that are close to each other can be called bandit groups in essence.

As soon as Li Yuanshu's words fell, Ji Congyou and Li Huai's expressions gradually became subtle. That subtle gesture made Li Yuanshu a little strange, "why, what did I say wrong?"

Ji Congyou smiled bitterly, "Mr. Yuan Shu, what do you think of the hundreds of thousands of Roman descendants in Lu?"

Li Yuanshu was dumb. He really didn't pay attention to this group before. After all, the state of Lu with a population of 56 million has only more than 100000 Roman descendants and 10% mixed race. He never faced up to this group.

Li Huai smiled strangely. "It's normal for Mr. Yuan Shu not to understand. In fact, the transaction between Liu Guo and Lu has always been based on population as the main settlement resource."

This made Li Yuan stunned.

Li Huai smiled again, "in China's Shandong Province, the current more than 100000 Roman descendants are basically women. Some of the most attractive are the dancers and concubines in the major aristocratic families. The common beauty is the Western mirror in the brothel held by Haoqiang."

Nearly 10% of the mixed race, that's how it comes from.

Liu Guo bought food, materials, swords, guns, armor, ships and cannons from Lu state, all of which were settled by white women.

Male? Don't be funny. Liu Guoke can't bear those big animals. After training, throw them into the mine for mining. Unlike the geographical environment where the three islands of Lu are almost all plain, Liu Guozhong islands are mountainous and rich in mineral resources.

How are those veins reclaimed? Naturally, the descendants of Rome were plundered, tamed and enslaved.

Li Huai couldn't help sighing, "it's said that the second son of the Xiao family had a beautiful white woman in his family. He bought it back at the cost of a thousand ton ship."

"Although they will also trade minerals with Lu, all kinds of iron and copper mines dug up by Liu will turn into armor, knives, guns, artillery and so on in exchange for white women."

"Therefore, when Lu used to trade with Liu, only the population ended up in his hands..."

Li Yuanshu heard about the small collapse and buying and selling people. In fact, he also knew that there were several people who took this business among the gentry. It was no surprise, but he really didn't think that Liu could carry out this kind of trade all over the country with the size of the country.

White women are not uncommon. Xue Chengfu had them before. I heard that there were several singers who took the exotic route in a brothel, which was very popular, but he didn't expect that this was the content of international trade!

Do you agree or not? No? If Liu lost the material support here, wouldn't he be beaten by the bandit group in ventra? The dead and injured are still the Chinese and Miao descendants of Liu Guo.

Promise? This is against his heart.

After sighing helplessly, Li Yuanshu said with a green face, "these things should be handled by the king."

Ji Congyou also has some egg pain, but he still motioned to Li Huai, "continue the transaction. There are still many strong men in Lu who are alone. This transaction will give priority to the soldiers of the Ministry of war."

Li Yuanshu heard it again. Is this for those big soldiers' daughter-in-law? It has to be said that at present, there is no imbalance in the proportion of men and women in the state of Lu. There is basically no difference in the total number of adult men and women. Even so, there are still countless bottom men who can't afford to marry a daughter-in-law at all.

In aristocratic families, it is normal for a young master to occupy dozens of women's resources. There are countless servants, not to mention wives and concubines. In addition, many aristocratic families operate brothels of different sizes. Where do the women come from?

In this case, where else should the civilian men at the bottom go to find someone?

Li Yuanshu suddenly felt that the officers and soldiers in Qufu still have the treatment of a daughter-in-law. Even if you don't marry as a regular wife, you can be a concubine. As soon as this condition comes out, the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers in Qufu is estimated to soar by several percent, which is more combat effectiveness than the New Army established by his Li regime in Xuecheng!
