To be honest, everyone is more or less curious about the last selected companies.
There are Jingzhao clans, and also related to Long nobles, including five families and seven surnames, and royal clans. At least on the surface, Li Tai seems to be very fair.
However, facing the reconstruction of the Silk Road, those who bought the quota may not be very happy at this moment, but more of them are nervous and confused. Those who did not get the quota are also envious and curious.
The Sassanid Dynasty is too far from the Tang Dynasty, and the Silk Road has to pass through the Western Regions and the Eastern Turks. The risks are endless. Even though we got the first batch of admission tickets, the future is still full of confusion for everyone, but it is seen from the past of the King of Wei.
The credibility makes everyone dare to gamble.
However, no matter what, since I bought the quota, everyone began to prepare the goods.
The goods that the Silk Road pioneer caravan can sell are divided into two parts.
Part of it is the transaction items between the court and Persia. This part requires ten companies to distribute it together with Li Tai, and each of them prepares according to their own share. This is also the part where the profits of the aristocratic families must be 30% or 70% of the court.
But each company also allowed to bring some goods privately, and the benefits obtained were purely their own, and the court turned a blind eye.
Each company has about ten cars. If any accident occurs, the organization will only pay the ten cars registered for inspection.
The transaction between Sassanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthesanthes in the war.
After Li Tai argued with reason and Li Shimin thought carefully, he decided to sell the weapons to be eliminated to Sassanid with this opportunity.
Of course, it is just weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds. Things like strong crossbows and armor are still not allowed to be sold.
Even Tang Dynasty's representative military equipment, such as Tang sword, is also on the ban on sale.
Li Tai also agreed with this. After all, he only hopes that Sassanthes can delay it for a while and that weapons can increase Sassanthesanthes’ lethality, but things like Agas may have the possibility of rewriting a war.
At the same time, Li Shimin also ordered Tian Changgeng from Xihai to take the Xuefu soldiers back to Chang'an, and when a new batch of Xuefu soldiers were supplemented, they would take them west.
For this reason, Li Tai also needs to let Luoyang Iron City work overtime to create a stomachache, so that the newly joined scholars can quickly arm the soldiers. Lu Cai can quickly master the adaptive talent through military musicians, and there is quite enough time.
At the same time, Li Tai also stuffed several Taoist priests who knew the celestial phenomena and searched for water veins, and made as much preparation as possible to deal with this long journey.
As for the things to be sold, in addition to some of the weapons and medicines that were expected by Blus that helped the war, Li Tai also brought new products such as iron pots, tea, sugar, etc., just to see if these things are good.
It's hard to sell.
The most technical one should be iron pots. Normally, iron pots have already taken shape in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and there were also a small number of them in the Tang Dynasty, but it still has to wait until the Song Dynasty.
A very important reason is that the Song Dynasty established a professional coal organization and had enough fuel to forge steel.
Even if the steel of the Song Dynasty was a little higher than that of the Tang Dynasty, it was not so qualified.
However, in the context of increased productivity, iron pots, such as people's livelihood, naturally came out in large quantities.
The most powerful left-handed evidence was that from the Song Dynasty, cooking gradually entered the homes of ordinary people, and even became more and more abundant.
As for Li Tai who can do this, it is because Li Tai has always mastered the coal industry and is constantly pursuing higher temperatures.
The blast furnace ironmaking technology in Luoyang Iron City has matured, and finally there is excess iron to create some iron products. Among them, the iron pot is something that Li Tai designated to study. After solving the mold problem, it was quickly realized.
Mass production.
Compared with agricultural products such as tea and sugar, iron pots, which seem ordinary but actually condense very superb technology, can best reflect a country's current industrial strength.
The reason is very simple. Iron pots, such as iron pots, first need to overcome the coal temperature, and then iron materials need to be solved.
Even if all these are solved, production efficiency determines that after a country's limited iron production is produced, it will give priority to supply weapons and gastrointestinal ash, followed by agricultural tools, and finally it will be the turn of daily necessities such as iron pots.
It can be said that iron pots are definitely products that can only be produced by improving productivity.
This is like in ancient times, why the tripod became a symbol of power, because the bronze tripod perfectly combined the power of steel with a bumper grain harvest.
When others see you cooking mutton hotpot with a bronze cauldron, they will clearly know that you are not short of metal or food.
And this was naturally a symbol of power in the era of slavery.
And things like iron pots are to some extent the successors of the bronze tripod, and are also a combination of steel power and joy of harvest.
In the feudal era, it was naturally impossible for many regimes to say that they could not make iron pots, but if they could make iron pots and trade with neighboring countries, it was not something that an ordinary country could do.
First of all, they need to be sufficiently productive, and secondly, they need to be civilized.
Therefore, daily necessities such as iron pots are really convenient for ordinary people. A repair and repair of an iron pot may be used for a lifetime.

But if the country's productivity does not increase to a certain level, this thing will really reach the homes of ordinary people.
Of course, Li Tai's things did not compete with the things taken out by other aristocratic families.
Because the first batch of goods they prepared were mainly silk and porcelain, after all, these two things are real hard currency.
In contrast, the iron pot, tea and sugar prepared by Li Tai seem strange compared to the silk and pottery they prepared.
Li Tai didn't say anything about this. After all, Silk Road, Silk Road, and Silk is hard currency.
However, although silk in the Han Dynasty did make the whole West fanatic, it is a pity that this technology was stolen into Italy in the 5th and 6th century, so the West broke away from the monopoly of Eastern silk and had the ability to weave silk itself.
However, the rise of the Arab Empire caused the Western Silk Road to be cut off, which made it impossible for Western silk to be sold to the Sassanian Empire. In this case, it can only be said that it will not lose money.
All in all, before the June departure time arrives, everyone is as prepared as possible to set out for this unknown journey.
As for when we will come back, it will be at least next year and the next year.
Of course, Li Tai's shareholding behavior attracted all kinds of families to establish the Silk Road, which made Li Chengqian extremely tired.
Li Chengqian naturally knew that the Silk Road was not so easy to build, and even if they came back, it would be a year or two later.
But Li Chengqian knew better that Qingque was best at using his interests to win over people.
"We need to fight quickly!" Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai's way of winning over the aristocratic family, which was more painful than severing his relationship with the aristocratic family!
Li Chengqian naturally hoped that it would be better for sand storms in the desert, or that they encountered Western Turks on the way and were attacked.
Anyway, it is naturally the best to be wiped out by the entire caravan, but Li Chengqian knew that this was unrealistic.
Because the Tang Dynasty has killed Gaochang and is intimidating the Western Regions. Even if we take a step back, this time we encountered a sandstorm and the entire caravan was destroyed. However, with Li Tai's plan, the next group of caravans will be
I think it will be reorganized soon.
Li Chengqian knew that as long as this caravan made profits, Li Tai’s network of relationships in Chang'an would be truly established.
It is an extremely pure but extremely strong interest relationship established with the cute Kaiyuan Tongbao.
Even when Li Tai opened the second or third quota, all families of all sizes would be crowded towards Li Tai like moths to the flames.
Li Chengqian could imagine that he wouldn't have a chance at that time.
When Li Chengqian thought of this, he couldn't help but feel fear. But whenever Li Chengqian was afraid, he became more and more transparent and calm.
Li Chengqian thought in his heart that he still had enough time. After all, Wei Zheng had just become the crown prince's grand tutor, so Aye could not suppress him at this time.
And this is the time for you to plan, and you will get into the position that should belong to you.
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian ordered Helan Chushi to say, "You go and arrange your time and invite Duke Chen to the mansion!"
"As for the order!" Helan Chushi heard Li Chengqian's order and immediately went to Hou Junji to arrange the next meeting.
"I don't have much time left for me, one year or two years!" Li Chengqian couldn't help but murmur.
At this time, Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Shiji, Li Jing, and Cen Wenben were in the Tai Chi Hall.
It was originally Wei Zheng who came, but Cen Wenben did nothing, but who made Wei Zheng sick and left the vacancy and let Cen Wenben take over.
Since Wei Zheng became the crown prince and magistrate, he has become ill and rarely attends court. Even Sun Simiao has visited Wei Zheng, but he can only say that medicine will not kill anyone.
If Wei Zheng could survive this winter, he might be able to survive for a year, but if he could not survive the winter, he would have no choice.
When Li Shimin heard Sun Simiao's judgment, he was actually very sad and hoped that Wei Zheng could survive.
"Qingque wants to use this reconstruction of the Silk Road to allow the Tang Dynasty to penetrate west of the Western Regions.
The place where Sassanthemum is now located is used as a future ban, so as to alleviate the population limit of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
Everyone spoke freely and expressed their opinions on this matter!”
Cen Wenben widened his eyes when he heard this. Is this the highest level of the country's political discussion? What kind of feudalism is implemented at every turn?
What is the feudal system? Cen Wenbian is naturally clear, but it alleviates the population limit of the Tang Dynasty. Why can you understand these words by yourself when you disassemble them, but you can't understand them at all when you put them together.
Cen Wenben's heart was full of complaints and looked around. The ministers present, except for Li Shiji, were taken for granted.
Obviously this is the top secret of the Tang Dynasty court. I was lucky enough to come in because Duke Wei was sick and replaced this position. I should say less and make mistakes. See how other people say it is better.
Fang Xuanling silently glanced at Cen Wenben and said in detail, "At the time when the King of Wei said that wheat was planted in the whole country, the maximum population of the Tang Dynasty could accommodate was about 12 million households. After that,
From prosperity to decline, there will inevitably be chaos.
Therefore, when the population reaches a certain level, the excessive population will be resolved through the feudal system.
But now our Tang Dynasty calculated that only 3.5 million households were calculated a few years ago. Now it has only been three years. Even if we calculate a little more, it will only be about 3.7 million households. Now we think about whether it is too early to enfeoffment.
Now!"
Fang Xuanling knew very well that although King Wei proposed to enfeoff, Li Tai was not a messy person. On the contrary, he liked to take steady steps.
Normally, to implement ceasing, it is best to promote this matter when the population of the Tang Dynasty reaches about 6 million households.
Anyway, it was too unrealistic for Zhenguan to implement this plan once. Even if Li Tai succeeds the next day, Fang Xuanling felt that it was a bit far away if he wanted to implement the feudal system.
After all, if you want to recover from population, you really have to rely on people to live.
The biggest cost of cultivating people is actually time. Even at the current recovery speed of the Tang Dynasty, it will take at least fifty years to restore the population of the Tang Dynasty to six million households!
Therefore, Fang Xuanling felt that the enfeoffment plan was not enforceable for at least a short period of time. It was not that he was unhappy, but that the population of the Tang Dynasty really could not support this plan.
"But west of the Western Regions, since the Dashi and the likes of Persia can be born, their land must be fertile.
If we only establish the Silk Road and explore countries like the Persian Food Festival, then we will not object!" Fang Xuanling said seriously.
Li Shimin nodded when he heard Fang Xuanling's words. Fang Xuanling did not oppose the establishment of the Silk Road to understand the countries west of the Western Regions, but at least at this time, Fang Xuanling did not support the enfeoffment.
"Pharmacist, what do you think?" Li Shimin knew Fang Xuanling's opinion and looked at Li Jing.
To be honest, generally speaking, Li Jing, who has retired, will not attend such meetings.
But in fact, Li Shiji, like Cen Wenben, did not understand the upper-level enfeoffment plan of the Tang Dynasty.
When Li Shimin supported the ban, and the ministers persuaded surrender to oppose it, Cen Wenben and Li Shiji had heard of it, but they didn't know that Li Shimin did not give up the ban, but Li Tai used mathematical data to directly prove that the Tang Dynasty wanted 300.
If the national destiny is above the year, it must be enfeoffed, and the enfeoffment must be further away.
Therefore, Li Shimin no longer continued to argue with the court officials about the issue of feudal division, but instead worked hard to restore the population of the Tang Dynasty to prepare for feudal division.
But the problem is that these things were the first things in Zhenguan, and the old ministers of Zhenguan have changed batch after batch.
At that time, Li Shiji was eating wind and sand in Bingzhou. Cen Wenben was a secret scholar who managed books, and they didn't know the details.
This is also the reason why Li Shimin didn't ask them. Today's news was enough for them to digest.
However, after knowing this plan, they also had a little understanding of why Li Tai has been doing the country and the people so far.
In fact, the plans of King Wei may mean to increase his own strength, but more importantly, they still have to complete the top plans of the Tang Dynasty.
Li Jing looked at Li Shimin and asked himself respectfully, "I don't understand political management very much, but I have been studying the essence of heaven and earth these days.
It is discovered that the essence of heaven and earth will not only make people more powerful, but even livestock seem to know how to use this power.
In other words, under the nourishment of the essence of heaven and earth, horses seem to run faster and farther.
If this situation continues, the west of the Western Regions may not be as far away as we expected!”
