The First Family of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2917: This group of greedy, bottomless Tang Gu

Hehe, come on, this is more than 1,400 years ago, Chongming Island, which was quite large in later generations, Cheng Sanlang asked the relevant people, and only then did he know.

At the estuary of the Yangtze River, some unscaled long beaches and sandbars were formed due to the accumulation of sediment.

It was not until the first year of Wude that two stable sandbars appeared on the sea, which were called Dongsha and Xisha by the local people.

"Sword Comes"

This is why in ancient times, shipbuilding was mostly done in places such as Quanzhou, rather than at places like the mouth of the Yellow River or the Yangtze River.

After all, when the ground is not even stable, I am afraid that relocation will be carried out every now and then, so I will build a **** boat and move every day to play calculations.

Goguryeo and Baekje captured the territory of Silla, and the next step was to divide the land and population.

But whether it is Baekje or Goguryeo, they are still very interested in accepting the population of Silla, but for them, they will definitely only accept those who are honest and obedient.

And how to deal with those prisoners of war was also put on the agenda after the land of Silla was pacified.

Fuyu Yici, the lord of Baekje, brought the great achievements and prestige of destroying Silla, and finally returned to Sibi City.

Before I had time to enjoy it, I had to deal with this big problem. After all, Silla was destroyed, not defeated.

How to deal with the large number of prisoners of war in hand is not a small problem. It is obviously too wasteful to slaughter them all.

But it can't be released, after all, if those soldiers from Silla were released and returned to the countryside, then the Silla monarchs who had escaped would sneak back secretly.

Encourage them to raise their swords and guns. At that time, the Baekje warriors will have to pay a lot of blood and lives to suppress them.

Just when Fuyu Yici was worried about this and was in a dilemma, he heard the report from the guards that Dazuo Pingshaqianfu was summoned to come to see him.

Fuyu Yici immediately lifted his spirits, and raised his hand to signal for Sha Zha Qianfu to come in to discuss matters.

Sha Zhaqianfu's official position is Da Zuoping, which is the official name of the first rank in Baekje and the commander-in-chief of the country. In other words, this official position is equivalent to being the prime minister and the commander-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses.

Can be regarded as Fuyu Yici, the most important courtier next to the King of Baekje, Da Zuoping was in charge of Baekje's internal military affairs when Fuyu Yici personally led the army to attack Silla, which shows that he has won the trust of Fuyu Yici.

At this moment, after the gray-bearded Sha Zha Qianfu entered the palace, he bowed to Fuyu Yici, and then said in a deep voice.

"I see the king, I don't know if the king has summoned the ministers, what orders do you have?"

"Qing Sha Zha, hurry up and invite you into the palace. It's not because of how to deal with the many trivial matters in my newly occupied land in Baekje."

"Things are cumbersome, but we have to be careful..."

"What Your Majesty said is very true. Now, Baekje and Goguryeo have divided up Silla. However, Your Majesty must not only guard against the resurgence of Silla. You must also guard against Goguryeo..."

Fuyu Yici also sighed, stroked his frowning brows and sighed.

"Well, this king understands this matter. Goguryeo is powerful, and it is definitely not a good thing for Baekje."

But Silla had to be destroyed, and if Silla was destroyed, Baekje and Goguryeo were on the same boat, and they could be regarded as mutual help.

However, if the Tang Dynasty's pressure on the peninsula disappears, and Fuyu Yici can't guarantee it, can Goguryeo resist Baekje?

Today's Baekje has lost the former strong supporter of the Wa country, and is alone against Goguryeo, I am afraid...

"Forget it, let's get over the difficulties in front of us first. The main reason for Wang Zhaoqing's visit today is how to deal with the prisoners of war..."

"Baekje captured a lot of Silla prisoners, but when Goguryeo and our allied forces attacked Silla, it was agreed in advance that almost all the grain and grass stored in the cities of Silla would be captured by Goguryeo.

Now that the severe winter has come, the people of Silla also need a large amount of food and grass to survive the cold winter, and those prisoners of war... a little careful handling may cause disaster. "

Seeing Fuyu Yici's frowning expression, Sha Zhaqianfu cleared his throat.

"Your Majesty, before your Majesty returns to the capital, I have been thinking hard about a good strategy, but it is difficult to find a solution, but fortunately..."

"Fortunately what?"

"Fortunately, now, there is finally a solution that has the best of both worlds. It can not only solve the problem of Silla prisoners of war detained by us in Baekje, but also solve the crisis of food shortage by the way."

Fuyu Yici saw Sha Zha Qianfu in front of him full of confidence, so he couldn't help sitting up straight.

"Since you have a good strategy, come quickly."

"Just yesterday, shopkeeper Xue of the Hantang Commercial Bank found Chen and proposed a transaction condition for prisoners of war in exchange for food."

"Han-Tang Commercial Firm? Prisoners of war for food?" Fuyu Yici looked at Shazha Qianfu with a dazed expression on his face, and then asked the question in his heart.

"Isn't the Han and Tang business houses owned by Tang people? Why do you want to do this? What good does it do for them?"

"Your Majesty, the Han and Tang Commercial Firm is a firm of the Tang Kingdom. Your Majesty must also know what is behind the Han and Tang Commercial Firm, but it is a group of dignitaries from the Tang Dynasty."

"The minister was also very curious at the time, and personally asked the shopkeeper Gu."

"The shopkeeper Gu said that they are businessmen, as long as it is a profitable business, they will do it and dare to do it."

"Now that I am short of food in Baekje, this news can't be hidden from them, and they have a lot of business in the Han and Tang Dynasties. They lack a lot of labor. Men can go to farm and mine, and women can spin and weave. Even if they are children, You can also graze cattle and sheep..."

"If Baekje is not willing to sell those prisoners of war to them, then it's okay, but if Baekje wants food, it needs to pay a lot of money..."

"..." Fuyu Yici smacked his mouth vigorously, he was naturally very clear about the strength of the Hantang Commercial Firm.

Moreover, the backstage is extremely tough. In the old days of the Wa Kingdom, this greedy Han and Tang business house not only did business with the Wa Kingdom, but also dealt with the wealthy families of the Wa Island.

He even heard that ~lightnovelpub.net~ the reason why the Japanese kingdom fought against the powerful clans was because those wealthy clans had mines in their hands, and they were cooperating with Han and Tang merchants to develop them.

Thinking of this, Fuyu Yici couldn't help grinding his teeth and muttering. "This group of greedy, bottomless merchants from the Tang Kingdom..."

"The king..."

"I know that the shopkeeper of the Hantang Commercial Bank told you how much food and grass can be exchanged for a prisoner of war?"

"Treasurer Gu of the Hantang Commercial Bank said that a grown man can exchange rice for ten shi, and old and weak women and children can exchange it for five shi."

"A grown man is only ten stones?" Fuyu Yici was immediately displeased, he was a living person, how could he be worth ten stones.

"..."
