Since ancient times, civil and military affairs have different paths, and it has been difficult to reach an agreement on the opinions of civil and military officials.

Li Longji became emperor for seven years since the innate period.

This kind of disagreement between civil and military opinions is common, and the final decision made by the emperor is not uncommon.

Now that civil and military affairs are united, Li Longji is surprised, and he cannot see through the thoughts of military generals for a while. He is worried about whether Pei Min can withstand the attack between civil and military affairs.

The same words were unanimous, and he, the emperor, was not easy to refuse, so he could only say: "Mo Li Yi was obtained by Pei Qing through great hardships. I think my Tang soldiers are so powerful, Zhenguan and Yonghui have made great achievements, and they have expanded their territory to tens of thousands of miles. After decades of development, their territory has been lost and their military achievements have not been revealed. Now they have finally recovered their territory and seized the strategic important land of Tubo. If they send it back like this, it is probably inappropriate, and they will also be disappointed. Let's listen to Pei Qing's opinions before deciding."

Wenwu did not refuse after hearing what Li Longji said.

Although Pei Min was not the commander-in-chief of the troops this time, he was the commander-in-chief. As long as he was convinced, major events could be decided.

Li Longji asked Gao Lishi to call Pei Min.

The officials did not wait, but discussed how to develop the Hexi Jiuqu land.

Until Pei Min's arrival.

When facing Pei Min, Wang Ju did not seem aggressive. After all, Pei Min is famous! This guy went to the battlefield and went to the world. He could write poems and essays with his pen, and he could write sentences and curse people with his mouth. It was really difficult to deal with.

Before he had to force it, Wang Ju did not want to offend him, and said with a little sincerity: "Duke Pei Guo, my Tang Dynasty, two Zhangs of the country were disrupted, Empress Wei was in chaos, and Taiping and autocratic power finally came to this situation. Your Majesty is very talented and strategic, with the aura of Taizong, and is determined to develop. For the people of the world, they can settle down, reclaim wasteland, build rivers and canals, and also implement military system and horse politics. Each of them is a benefit to the country and the people!"

"However, the national strength is limited, and the manpower is limited! Just like Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. To be fair, Yang Guang opened the canal and built the Dongdu was really a ruthless act? In fact, it was not entirely true. Opening the canal and connecting the canal to the south of the Yangtze River to establish the status of the two capitals. It is understandable, but he ignored labor, ignored the livelihood of the people, and ignored the burden on the country. So much so that in order to escape labor, the people interrupted their hands and feet, and laughed as having enough blessings. It directly led to the fact that the people in the world had a hundred uprisings, and the Sui Dynasty collapsed and broke up and became destruction. Ignoring the people, ignoring the people's livelihood, and abused the people's power, they were traitors."

"Of course... Your Majesty is wise and powerful, isn't it comparable to Yang Guang? But now the treasury is not rich. Needless to say, recruiting troops and horses, there is also the development of the Jiuqu land in Hexi and the dredging of the Grand Canal. All of this needs to be allocated by the Ministry of Revenue. Don't be afraid of the jokes of the Duke of the State, the Ministry of Revenue's treasury is insufficient. Send troops and horses to defend Moliyi, and military pay, food, grass, equipment, etc. are all quite a lot. I think you can save as much as possible."

Wang Ju's attitude was so good that Pei Min didn't slap him in the face, and said with a smile: "Shangshu Wang's words are reasonable! A lesson from the past and a teacher of the future. As the experience of our predecessors, we should pay more attention to the experience of our predecessors. It's just..."

Wang Ju was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard "just" a heart was hanging in his mouth again.

Pei Min said: "Shangshu was fooling Tubo! If you don't understand the situation, do you think Tubo is located at a high place, the environment is harsh, deserted, and dilapidated?"

"A big mistake!"

He said these four words heavily and said, "Tubo is closing the door and making a fortune in a quiet voice. If you don't see it with your own eyes or see it with your own eyes, ordinary people can't imagine the wealth of Qinghai Lake at all."

Wang Ju looked at Pei Min for no reason.

Pei Min said: "For example, the eight hundred-mile plain in Guanzhong, our Tang Dynasty is known as the country of Tianfu, and the Jiangnan is known as the hometown of fish and rice. The resources of Qinghai Lake are by no means inferior to Guanzhong, and the Jiangnan is a little bit."

Some people were moved after hearing Pei Min's words, while others were unbelievable.

Pei Min continued: "Tubo produces salt, everyone knows it! But you don't know how rich their salt resources are! A salt field can meet the needs of all the people in the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years, which is far beyond your imagination..."

As soon as he said this, all the civil and military officials in the court were staring at each other.

When Pei Min went to Qinghai for a trip, the tour guide told him that there were more than 100 salt lakes of all sizes in Qinghai. One of the larger salt lakes had a salt storage capacity, which was enough for the whole world to use for decades or hundreds of years.

If we include the Charhan Salt Lake in the southern part of the Qaidam Basin in Qinghai, it will be enough for 7 billion people around the world to eat for thousands of years, and we can't finish it...

So the so-called salt cut during the SARS period is actually a joke!

Because the salt in Qinghai Salt Lake is almost endless, and the amount of salt that is not as regenerated as it has.

Pei Min ignored the expressions of civil and military officials and said to himself: "There is a small salt lake to the west of Moliyi, which should be enough for the people of the Tang Dynasty to eat for fifty years. After passing Dafeichuan to the west, there is a Chaka Salt Lake. It is the smallest of the four major salt lakes. Not many, it is enough for me to eat for a thousand and eight hundred years in the Tang Dynasty. It is incomparable to the Charhan Salt Lake in the hinterland."

The civil and military officials were a little unable to keep up with the rhythm. Salt is a strategic material. People in the world can never leave salt, but the huge profits are huge.

It is also because of this that Emperor Wu of Han issued the appointment of the official salt and iron camp, and it has been used to this day.

Salt tax was a major source of the economy of the Tang Dynasty. The endless salt was the endless gold and copper coins!

"So!" Pei Min raised his voice and said, "I have long-term thinking and close considerations when I take Moliyi. Several major salt-producing bases in the Tang Dynasty are all on the seashore, and the closest ones to us are also in the East China Sea. The salt in the East China Sea is supplied to the north, which is insufficient. The salt used in Guanzhong, Longyou, and Liangzhou comes to Jiangnan, and is thousands of miles away. The transportation costs can be imagined. Moreover, the Western Regions lacks salt, and Tubo has mastered salt resources and sold it in the Western Regions at a high price to make huge profits. In order to save trouble, our Western Regions Protectorate had to buy it. Now the salt in Moliyi can be used in Guanzhong, Longyou, Liangzhou, and even the Western Regions. How much transportation costs will be saved and how much money will be earned? I wonder if you have thought about it?"

"For the little double tribute of Tubo, withdraw from Moliyi?" Pei Min said with a little ridiculousness: "That is the biggest idiot, the stupid act of throwing watermelon for the sake of sesame."

Malt is also sesame!

The first person to react was Wang Ju, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who opposed the garrison of Mo Liyi, who said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I am ignorant and do not know that Qinghai Lake is so rich. I suggest that I should immediately increase troops to Mo Liyi, and the Ministry of Revenue is willing to summon craftsmen to invest in the construction of Mo Li City."

The Minister of Revenue immediately changed his attitude.

The military officer was stunned. Ge Fushun said: "This is afraid that it will cause panic in Tubo and start another war!"

Pei Min was about to speak, but Wang Ju said sternly: "As a military officer, General Ge said so fearful of war, and he was not ashamed! As a general in the court, the enemy attacked and he was to lead his troops to fight. How could he retreat!"

Ge Fushun almost spit out his old blood.
