"Food is the most important thing for the people. Every seed is a gift from God to mankind. This has nothing to do with the nation, let alone grudges. No country has the right to monopolize it. It should be the gospel of everyone.
Including the Han people, including the Tubo people. The Tang Dynasty had a broad mind, founded the country on benevolence and righteousness, and was willing to popularize these food crops that would benefit people all over the world, so that everyone in the world could benefit from them. If the Prime Minister could stay in Chang'an a lot
After some time, when the corns had grown, I gave some seeds to the Prime Minister."
Fang Jun was upright and his tone was sonorous.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that it would be impossible to keep this thing secret, even if he were killed, he wouldn't be able to share it with all mankind!
When the Five Husbands invaded China, who talked about humanitarianism to the Han people? When the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry ravaged the Central Plains, who talked about humanitarianism to the Han people? When the Eight Banners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties killed many people in the Central Plains, and "left their hair but not their head", who talked about it?
Did they talk about humanitarianism to the Han people? When Western countries opened the country with powerful ships and cannons, who talked about humanitarianism to the Han people? When the little devils brazenly launched a war of aggression against China, and 35 million soldiers and civilians were slaughtered, who talked about it?
Did the Han people talk about humanism?
The so-called humanism is just a body covered with a barbaric soul!
If possible, Fang Jun would rather raise a million soldiers, kill all the Hu people to clear the world, and drop dozens of nuclear bombs to sink that vicious island country!
Fuck humanitarianism!
…
Fang Jun scolded his mother in his heart, but Lu Dongzan was moved to tears.
No one knows better than him what kind of life the Tibetan people live!
It seems that the area with herds of cattle and sheep is vast, but because the land is barren and the climate is bitter and cold, it is very difficult to grow food. And beef and mutton are what ordinary people can eat every day? The vast majority of people live on the pitiful highland barley.
As food, highland barley wine is now very popular, and all tribes have tasted the benefits of it, wishing that every grain of highland barley was used to make wine. The people of Tubo could only buy food from Tang merchants at high prices.
It looks fine for the time being, but in the long run, there are many hidden dangers.
One country's food is controlled by another country. Once a war breaks out and Datang cuts off the food supply, how many Tibetans will starve to death regardless of victory or defeat?
Lu Dongzan simply did not dare to go to the scene of people dying of hunger everywhere...
In his opinion, Fang Jun can be regarded as a "wonderful person". As long as he wants to study something, there is nothing he can't succeed in. And now that he attaches so much importance to this "corn", he must have more crops than before.
The advantages.
And he also noticed that Fang Jun said "the new continent at the end of the ocean", but Tubo is located on a plateau, surrounded by mountains, and is thousands of miles away from the sea. Even he, the most wise man in Tubo, has never seen the sea.
, we can only imagine the majesty of the sea from books, but it is difficult to get a glimpse of the true face of the sea from the books left by those sages who have never paid attention to the sea since ancient times.
In the past, he thought that the sea had no end, but now that the Tang Dynasty fleet had reached the end of the sea, in his opinion, it was just the much larger holy lake Namtso...
At this time, the man carrying a hoe straightened up, his tendon flesh shining brightly under the sunlight through the glass, he glared at Fang Jun and said dissatisfiedly: "This thing is the weapon of Erlang of the Tang Dynasty who suffered countless casualties.
The disaster of life and death was brought back from the distant New World. This is a treasure that belongs to the people of the Tang Dynasty. Why was it given to the Tubo people so easily? Not only did I not agree, the officials present would not agree, and the people outside would not agree.
I will agree!"
When he popped up and said this, the expressions of the officials in the greenhouse also changed, and they all looked at Fang Jun.
Although Fang Jun was dissatisfied with the power he had taken earlier, he did not dare to say anything more. This corn was brought back from the New World by someone sent by Fang Jun. Naturally, he has the final say on how to distribute it. Who dares to do anything in front of this stick?
Accusation?
However, now that Xue Wanche stood up, these people had a backbone and immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.
"The general is right. These are the seeds brought back by the people of Tang Dynasty after all the hard work. It is naturally a gift from God's blessing to the people of Tang Dynasty. Why should they be given to the Tubo people?"
"Are we going to wait until the Tubo people are full before riding horses from the plateau to kill them?"
"Consort, you must never give your house to the Tubo people. This is an act of supporting the enemy and will be punished by national law!"
…
In an instant, there was opposition in the entire greenhouse.
As the only Tibetan, everyone stared at him with unkind eyes, as if he was a weasel that had entered the house and wanted to take away the hens that laid eggs in the house...
Lu Dongzan was very embarrassed.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Everyone, Tubo and the Tang Dynasty are separated by a strip of water. They have always been harmonious neighbors. How can it be possible that because of the conflicts in recent years, they have reached a state of eternal life? Tubo is not a warlike country. If the people are not lacking
If you can't survive with little food and clothing, why would you want to provoke a war? Furthermore, in all conflicts, the Tang people were not entirely at fault..."
This is indeed true.
In order to compete for warmer land and plunder more people, Tubo launched wars from time to time, inflicting irreparable wounds on the people of the Tang Dynasty. However, how did the Tang people treat the Tubo people as people of the same class? Historically, the Han people
There were not a few wars provoked, and the ubiquitous discrimination and ubiquitous oppression also caused great harm to the Tibetan people.
However, in this greenhouse, who would listen to him exaggerating the pain of the Tibetan people?
"Bah! Tubo brought it upon itself. Since God gave you a vast territory, your ancestors have guarded it for generations and thrived on the plateau. Why do you covet the land of the Han people?"
"It's ridiculous! You are so lazy that you will starve to death, so you come to rob us. What kind of logic is this?"
"The barbarians who disobey the king will deserve to die!"
…
Lu Dongzan's face was as dark as water and he stopped defending.
The hatred between the two countries has become deeper and deeper, especially among the people. Both sides wish that the imperial court would immediately send a large army to kill all the enemies. Where can there be any good words?
He just stared at the strong man carrying the hoe with a sullen face.
The dignified general of the Sixteenth Guards, the emperor's consort, and the Duke of Wu'an, not only worked in the fields like an old farmer, but also willingly prepared ridges for Fang Jun...
Is Fang Jun's prestige so high?
It seems that even though I have already raised Fang Jun's influence in the Tang Dynasty to several levels, I still underestimated him.
The emperor treats him like a humerus, and the ministers obey his words... This is simply a big boss!
Fang Jun didn't expect these people to react so violently. He didn't want to "capitalize the enemy" but felt that sooner or later he couldn't cover up something. Why not be a favor?
At this moment, he had no choice but to spread his hands at Lu Dongzan and said: "The Prime Minister has also seen it. Tubo has repeatedly provoked wars, and the resentment in the Tang Dynasty has deepened day by day. There is nothing I can do. If the Prime Minister really wants to
To obtain corn seeds, it would be better to ask Zampu of your country to personally present his credentials to His Majesty and discuss it formally. Otherwise, I would not dare to give corn seeds to Tibet without authorization, just in case these people throw rotten eggs into my yard at night
, calling someone a traitor, my father could break someone’s leg... I’m sorry that I can’t help.”
Lu Dongzan was so angry that his teeth itched.
In his opinion, Fang Jun clearly mentioned the gift of corn seeds in front of so many people on purpose. He calculated that these people would object in groups, and then went down the road and made the matter known to everyone.
to the level of meetings and discussions between the two countries.
As a result, public opinion was very unfavorable to Tibet, and the ministers in the DPRK who accepted his large bribes could not openly speak for Tubo. Moreover, once it rose to the national level, if they wanted to get corn seeds, it would be empty talk.
Is that okay?
That must be something of equal value in exchange...
This boy looks harmless, righteous and cheerful, but in fact he is cunning and cunning, and he is not worthy of being a son of man!
Where did Fang Jun think so much?
So looking at Lu Dongzan's angry eyes, I was very puzzled...
*****
"Erlang is really treacherous!"
During lunch, Lu Dongzan felt angry and spoke frankly.
Fang Jun, who was holding a large bowl of noodles and was slurping away, looked confused. He didn't know why he got the "treacherous" comment. He lowered his head and looked at the noodles in the bowl and the floating green vegetables, and said suspiciously: "
Doesn’t the Prime Minister think that someone is treating you harshly, giving you noodles, and then secretly eating delicacies by yourself? Hey! You are such a boring person! What kind of delicacies have not been eaten by people like us?
Are you tired of eating? Sitting on the threshold with a bowl of noodles, breathing in the wind of Guanzhong and looking at the beautiful scenery of Lishan Mountain, this is life!"
Lu Dongzan's dark old face turned darker and darker.
