As the largest gem shop in Chinatown, the treasures from the store that were brought out are naturally the top gems. It is difficult to find gems of the same quality in the entire gem trading area, and even if there are, people may not be willing to sell them.

However, Li Yan's family has six women, and he is not a favor with each other, so he finally asked Xiao Lin to come forward, saying that he was a birthday gift for his cousin. Now, the merchants finally rushed to take out all the things in the box. After all, everyone knew that Xiaoba's cousin was Princess Qi, which was a good opportunity to make friends with the prince's mansion.

It was precisely through this method that Li Yan finally bought nine pieces of gem jewelry of the same level of quality. Both materials and workmanship were extremely rare treasures. In addition to the six women in the family, each of these nine pieces of jewelry, Yang Fei, Caier and Empress Xiao, from Chang'an City, also each of them.

After staying in New Buddha City for a few days, Li Yan wandered around other parts of Ceylon, but it was mainly concentrated in the southern region. This was mainly because the northern part of Ceylon was originally the sphere of influence of the Tamils. When Li Zhen and Li Yun occupied the place, they killed a lot of people, which also made the rule of the Tamils ​​not very stable. Last year, Tamil resistance happened. Although after Liu Rengui's pacification, the Tamils ​​had given up resistance, they could not be reversed for the time being. Therefore, for the sake of Li Yan's safety, they only went to a few more important cities in the north.

The development of Ceylon Island was generally carried out according to the plan formulated by Li Yan at the beginning. For example, the popular gem industry has entered a period, and many Han people with a dream of making a fortune overnight come here to explore the mine every day. Although not many people are truly successful, it does not damage the enthusiasm of these people. In fact, although most people have not discovered gem mines, they can rely on those who discovered gem mines. Become a senior migrant worker. After all, there are too few Han people in Ceylon. Generally, Han people who find gem mines naturally prefer to use their own tribes.

Now there are more than 100,000 Han people on Ceylon Island, and they are still growing. In addition, with a certain popularity, the tea planting industry has begun to develop. Many domestic tea merchants in the Tang Dynasty are willing to invest in Ceylon. After all, this place is closer to Persia, Dashi and other places. It is also very suitable for tea planting. I believe that you will definitely get rich returns in the future.

The gem industry and tea are two economic pillars tailored by Li Yan for Ceylon Island, which has been proven by later history. As long as these two industries are developed, Ceylon Island will truly become the most beautiful pearl on the Tianzhu Sea. Even the beautiful local environment is a highlight. When transportation is convenient in the future, the development of tourism can be put on the agenda.

However, the main purpose of Li Yan's arrival from Lion City this time was not Ceylon. It can even be said that he only visited Ceylon Island by the way. His main purpose was that Li Zhen and Li Yun were located in the continent of India.

Now the territory of Li Zhen and Li Yun is not just the original Kingdom of Jora. Just a few months ago, Li Zhen and Li Yun sent troops again and quickly destroyed several small countries around, such as the Kingdom of Sanjay, the Kingdom of Aola, etc., which resulted in the expansion of their territory by more than ten times, and they occupied a small half of the entire sharp corner area in the southern part of the Indian continent.

The Palawa Dynasty, which nominally ruled the sharp corner areas of the southern Indian continent, had been forced to the northwest corner of the sharp corner areas by them, and its land area shrank by three quarters. And if Li Yun and Li Zhen had not had the limited troops and were worried that the expansion would be too fast to be managed, the entire Palawa Dynasty would have perished long ago.

It was under this situation that Li Yan took a boat to Qiaola City where Li Zhen and Li Yun were. Qiaola City came to Qiaola City. After Li Yun's governance, the port was orderly, and various port facilities were gradually being improved. In addition, with the assistance of Wang Xuance and others, Qiaola City developed extremely rapidly. Now it has become a large port as famous as New Buddha City. There is no longer a big port in the entire South China.

After the big ship Li Yan was on the dock at Qiaola Port, Li Yan came to visit the city, but when Li Zhen and Li Yun heard that he was coming, they immediately rushed to the port and pulled him directly into the temple of the two.

Li Zhen and Li Yun had previously transformed the Brahmins and promoted themselves as the reincarnation of the God of Protection and the God of Destruction, so they naturally could not live in ordinary places. For this reason, they built a large-scale temple in the city of Chora and built a large-scale temple in the center of the city. After the temple, there were two separate mansions, living their families respectively.

The temple is where Li Zhen and Li Yun convened ministers to discuss matters, and its function is the same as that of the Tai Chi Palace in Chang'an Tai Chi Palace. However, when Li Yan saw this temple, he was stunned because the entire hall was divided into two parts from the middle, the part on the left was pure black, and the one on the right was pure white, and the left was completely symmetrical, which looked very strange.

After entering the temple, you will find that the interior decoration is the same, with black and white on the left and right. However, opposite the front door, there is a high platform. The high platform is also divided into black and white. There are two chairs on it. However, the colors of these two chairs are just opposite to the left and right of the temple. There is a white chair on the left, and a black chair on the right.

At first, Li Yan was a little confused about the design of the temple. Later, after Li Yun's explanation, he realized that the entire temple borrowed some Taoist yin and yang theories. They interpreted the Yin and Yang yin as the Brahmin's Lord of Protection and the Lord of Destruction. Although the two seem to be opposite, they are actually interdependent. Destruction is nurturing in protection, and rebirth is nurturing in destruction. The two colors of the entire hall are to reflect this theory.

"Hahaha~, you two are really nonsense. Even the Taoist doctrine has been moved into Brahmins, and you are not afraid of our ancestors being blamed?" Li Yan said with a laugh after hearing this. He did not look at his two younger brothers at the same time. Li Zhen and Li Yun were much darker than when they parted, but they were also more mature. Especially Li Zhen, the aphrodisiac on his face had gradually faded away, and slowly turned into a kind of iron-blooded color of a general on the battlefield.

"How could my ancestors have a good understanding of us? Besides, if we can carry forward his theory, he might be very happy." Li Zhen also said with a smile. He is a soldier and never believes in the sayings of ghosts and gods, and even I dare to make fun of it.

However, when it comes to Li Yan and Li Zhen making fun of me, Li Yun next to him shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was a cautious person. He could not believe in the sayings of ghosts and gods, but he could not believe in them. He reported a view that was to stay away from him, so he would not participate in this conversation.

Li Yan and Li Zhen made a few jokes, and then asked Li Yun next to him: "Seventh brother, your territory has expanded so quickly. You, the lord in charge of government affairs, may be exhausted, right?"

When Li Yun heard this, he immediately felt bitter and said, "It's better for Sixth Brother, please understand me, but when it comes to this matter, Sixth Brother, you must tell me about Eighth Brother, otherwise I really can't do this job anymore!"

"Oh? What's going on? What did the Eighth Brother do to make you angry?" Li Yan asked in surprise, and turned his head and looked at Li Zhen, but found that Li Zhen was sitting there with dissatisfaction.

Next, Li Yun told what Li Zhen did, but Li Yan frowned after hearing this, because it was not big or small. The main reason was that during the expansion battle some time ago, Li Zhen slaughtered the armies of those small countries, and even some surrendered troops were not spared.

Li Zhen also had his reasons for doing this. One is that they had too few troops in their hands and could not control the large number of prisoners. If they were not careful, it might cause the prisoners to rebel. Therefore, for future rule, it would be better to kill them directly. Another reason is that he is known as the Lord of Destruction, and killing people will only increase his reputation. No matter which team sees him in the future, they will feel a sense of fear. In this way, if they are afraid before fighting, they will naturally be more likely to be defeated by them.

However, Li Yun held a different view, because in his opinion, these prisoners of war were very good laborers. If they could be kept, they would not only increase the population, but also make it easier to recruit soldiers in the future. In addition, Li Zhen's killing indiscriminately also led to many Indians being a little hostile to them. During this period, he had tried his best to appease the people in the newly occupied areas. However, even so, there were still several rebellions. Although they were successfully suppressed, they also had a considerable impact on the local economy.

Both of them have their own reasons, but after thinking for a while, Li Yan could not judge who was right and who was wrong. However, Li Zhen had to bear the consequences of the massacre of so many people, which was obviously unfair. At Li Yan's insistence, Li Zhen first admitted that Li Yun first, and then asked Li Zhen to take on more government affairs when he was fine, which was also considered to be a share of the burden for Li Yun.

Li Zhen is not a person who is unreasonable, and he believes in Li Yan the most, so he did as Li Yan said in the end, which finally made Li Yun calm down.
