Wenyi shook his head: "How is it possible? Am I such a person?

Just discovered a silver mine."

Only then did Li Shimin become interested: "Go on."

Literary Art: "Our copper mines and silver mines in the Tang Dynasty are owned by the imperial court, but this one in Japan is our own! And according to my rough detection, the output of this silver mine is extremely high. If it is fully exploited, it will be enough to match the entire Tang Dynasty."

The silver output is comparable to that of China’s silver production! Uncle, do you know how much I brought back during this trip?”

Li Shimin's eyes widened and he said: "Stop talking in circles, tell me quickly!"

Wenyi chuckled: "I brought back 450 tons! That's 10.7 million taels!"

Li Shimin was really shocked now! More than 10 million taels of silver! What a huge amount! Li Shimin stood there for a long time before slowly coming to his senses, tremblingly picking up the tea cup, but no matter how hard he tried,

Neither could bring the cup to his mouth.

Wenyi couldn't stand it any longer, so he helped him hold the teacup steady. Li Shimin drained it in one gulp, holding Wenyi tightly with both hands and asked, "More than ten million taels?"

silver?

Pure or silver ore?”

Wenyi endured the pain in his arm and said: "Pure! I have already refined it.

This is the production in the past six months. When we went there, the Suga family had not yet transported the silver away, so we picked up the ready-made ones! Uncle, please put me down first, I can't stand it anymore."

Li Shimin said "Oh" stupidly, and then started to walk around in the study room, mumbling incoherently: "More than ten million taels, more than ten million taels! How should I spend it..." After a long time, Li Shimin became more and more artistic.

When he fell asleep, Li Shimin grabbed him again and hugged him, saying: "Xiaoyi, you are my lucky general! I will reward you well! By the way, Shu'er is yours, and my family doesn't need it."

Why are you meeting a foreigner? Well, let’s get married now!”

Wen Yi looked at Li Shimin, who seemed to be going crazy, and was speechless for a while. He quickly comforted Li Shimin with a few words of comfort and finally became normal.

Li Shimin said: "This news is a bit violent. I have to go back and digest it. I will talk about other things tomorrow. I will go back first."

After saying that, he walked out the door.

Wenyi finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time. It would be a big loss if the future Tian Khan went crazy because of more than 10 million taels of silver! Unfortunately, he was happy too early! As soon as Li Shimin turned around and stepped forward, his left foot tripped

His right foot fell to the ground gorgeously! Wenyi was shocked and quickly helped Li Shimin up and carefully carried him to the dormitory.

After personally handing Li Shimin into the hands of his eldest grandson, he truly left with peace of mind.

The next day, Li Shimin took a month's leave citing physical discomfort.

We brought literature and art to the dormitory early. Why dormitory?

Because the eldest grandson went crazy when he heard the news, the couple pressed Wenyi and asked in detail what happened.

Li Shimin then said: "Well, that's right, since you are pretending to be a pirate, then we can spend this money with confidence and boldness!"

Wenyi said: "Now our ship is parked near Dengzhou. Do you think we can transport the money back quietly?"

Li Shimin was surprised: "Why not transport it to Shanghai?"

Wenyi explained: "There are too many helpers there. I'm worried that there are spies from other families inside. Not to mention others, there must be a lot of people from the Xiao family, so it's not safe there."

Li Shimin thought for a while and said: "Yes, this is safer. Leave the money transportation to me. This is a small matter.

I will go with you."

On the same day, Li Shimin deployed the support of the King of Qin and marched out of Chang'an. He picked up ten trucks of special forces that were ready to go near Mei County and went straight to Dengzhou.

During the day and night, news spread that Li Shimin had heard that there were Kuns in the waters of Dengzhou and wanted to catch one and bring it back to celebrate His Majesty's birthday.

After rushing for fifteen days, Li Shimin and Wenyi finally arrived in Dengzhou. They found the docking point of the "Shu'er" overnight, and Li Shimin couldn't wait to enter the cabin to look at the silver.

As soon as Wen Yi boarded the ship, he heard a wolf howl erupting in the cabin. It seemed that Li Shimin was going crazy again.

It is said that people who get rich overnight will make several retaliatory impulse purchases. Li Shimin proves that this sentence is right.

Qin Wu and Qin Liu were asked to pick up a basket of silver. The special forces team members lined up. Li Shimin grabbed a handful of silver and stuffed it into the arms of the team member. He also patted his shoulder affectionately: "Thank you for your hard work! Give it to your wife and children."

Buy some clothes and good food."

The team members knelt down one after another to express their gratitude. On the surface, everything seemed so beautiful, especially the newly recruited team members who saw that money was given out in baskets, and they were even more determined to follow Li Shimin.

The fifty veteran team members who got off the boat thought to themselves that Boss Wen is still reliable. How come you only have two baskets, but each of us has one basket? Although we are also loyal to His Highness, His Highness is really stingy... Of course, Li Shimin is not responsible for all this.

You know, he is still immersed in the loyalty of his subordinates, and he cannot extricate himself from his sudden wealth.

After all the factors were packed into the truck, Li Shimin followed Wen Yi to the sea for a circle. After all, the news had been released. If he couldn't really catch a whale and take it back, he couldn't make up the lie.

After Li Shimin personally caught a whale with the eight-oxen crossbow, Li Shimin completely fell in love with the sport of whaling, which also led to Li Shimin no longer looking down on hunting. He believed that shooting rabbits and tigers were not as exciting as hunting whales! (Tang Dynasty)

During this period, the oceans were not developed at all, and the global population was very small, so there was no such thing as protecting animals.

Nowadays, whales are protected animals and cannot be hunted. Readers who have any ideas, please do not try! Doing so will make the price very low!) Finally, Wenyi returned to Shanghai by boat, and Li Shimin returned to Chang'an with his trophies.

After Wenyi arrived in Shanghai, he heard that the whale had entered Chang'an, which was a huge sensation. His Majesty Li Yuan, down to the 80-year-olds, all went outside Chang'an to admire the whale that was so big that it could not enter the city gate.

Li Shimin took advantage of this to gain another wave of popularity. The prince was so jealous that he promised to go out and catch a big roc.

Literary smiled and ignored it.

Shipyards with literature and art will immediately show unparalleled cohesion, and shipyards with money will unleash amazing potential.

The number of workers has expanded to 7,000, and 10 shipyards have been built. Wenyi had the foresight to build a staff dormitory five miles outside the factory. The staff dormitory, which can accommodate 10,000 households, is the first in the world! Small merchants and hawkers

People also came here because of its reputation, and soon a new town took shape.

Xiao Jingye, the governor of Wu County, came to Wenyi to discuss the establishment of the county.

I also thought about the name "Huating County", which made me happy when I heard it. Huating County was originally established in the tenth year of Tianbao of Tang Dynasty (751). The prefect of Wu County approved the establishment. I didn't expect that it would be advanced because of his arrival, but Wen Yi insisted.

Use "Shanghai" as the county name.

Xiao Jingye was covetous of the achievements here, and immediately agreed that he would report to the court the matter of establishing the county, and then Wenyi would select officials from the Xiao family to serve as county magistrates and other positions.

Although the matter was not serious, the signal was extremely clear, and there was a battle of forces in the court. In the end, the Xiao family led all ethnic groups in the south of the Yangtze River to completely surrender to Li Shimin and successfully established Shanghai County.
