Taking advantage of the opportunity of the alliance, Li Chao was very proud and signed land purchase contracts with several tribes. He bought a large area of ​​land in one go and bought a lot of forests.

The village heads and village leaders of Shanyi Village were all very happy and felt that they had taken a big advantage. Each of their tribes occupied a large area of ​​land and forests. If they sold some to Li Chao, they could get a large number of exquisite Tang people's goods. They thought it was very cost-effective.

Li Chao also thinks it is very cost-effective.

He did take out a lot of real money, but compared to the large tracts of land he bought, as well as mountains, mines, etc., it is not worth mentioning. Those forests can include a large amount of wood, mineral deposits, gold mines, coal mines, and copper and iron ore. I don’t know how much it is worth just these.

What's more, they bought money from these Shanyi and spent it on Li Chao's place, and returned to Li Chao's hands.

“Happy cooperation, cheers to the league!”

Li Chao raised his glass.

The chiefs wearing colorful aprons and gorgeous feathers on their heads would stutter and shout out cheers. They held the exquisite celadon wine glass and drank the sweet wine with ease.

"My friends, we form an alliance here to establish a parliament. The parliament is established. I suggest that in the future, the tribes within the alliance will no longer fight against each other and will no longer hunt each other. We will get along with each other in a friendly manner and develop together."

After hearing the translation, a chief of a large tribe frowned, "Getting out grass and hunting heads is our tradition, and this tradition cannot be abolished."

"I respect everyone's traditions, and did not say that I would abolish the tradition of grass production. I just suggested that the tribes here will be a family in the future, so there is no need to attack each other. It is okay to use grass production, but we are not on our own people."

Li Chao smiled and led everyone's eyes to other tribes that had not come.

"I respect everyone's traditions very much. For this reason, I suggest that we hold a great grass-making ceremony for the young men from more than 300 tribes in our alliance. We will also prepare some prizes for them. Those who successfully hunt heads in the grass-making will receive an excellent and sharp Tang Dynasty sword, and the top ten will also receive more exquisite gifts!"

A big grass comes out.

In fact, it was a joint tribe that came to form alliances but attacked the dozens of tribes that did not come. In the name of making grass and the reason for holding a ceremony for the young people, the party fought against the differences.

If this operation is successful, Li Chao can still take them to conquer the other tribes on the island in the future.

"The spoils won by the grass are distributed according to the amount of effort the troops are given." Li Chao said with a smile.

Li Chao's proposal is heart-warming.

Grass is indeed the tradition of the Shanyi tribe, but this tradition is actually due to the harsh living environment. In the future, if the tribes within the alliance will no longer hunt heads and fight against each other, and will unanimously make their living conditions much better.

In addition, Li Chao proposed the distribution of spoils, and now no one objected to the leaders of the tribes. Headhunting is a tradition, and they will hunt headhunting under all circumstances.

For example, they can compete for hunting grounds, such as adults in teenagers, such as to prove courage, such as hatred, and for various reasons, they can hunt heads.

But if we can destroy the enemy camp, rob their forest farms, and divide their spoils, we will naturally be happy.

After the establishment of the alliance, the first treaty law was also established. The tribal alliance attacked and defended the alliance, and was unanimous to fight against the outside world, and no revenge was allowed to hunt headhunters within. The alliance also set the first task to hold a big show, with the goal of the forty-four tribes that did not come.

Because Li Chao proposed to bear the expenses for this tide, Li Chao was naturally elected by the tribes as the leader of the alliance. The other tribe leaders became representatives of the parliament, and Li Chao was the speaker, and among the thirteen minor alliances within the alliance, they selected their chiefs as council members.

Li Chao sent his own liaison officers to each tribe, and the departments also entered the village. The liaison officer brought several assistants to him, which was actually a liaison team, including teachers, doctors and businessmen.

Li Chao asked them to set up liaison stations in various villages, set up medical and teaching points, practice free medical treatment and teach children to study for tribal villages, and set up commercial sites in various places to sell commercial goods and purchase goods to them.

In the afternoon, a grand banquet was held in the city, and the leaders of all tribes were happy to eat, drink and return home with a full load.

Li Chao had prepared a large number of liaison officers, teachers, barefoot doctors and businessmen, as well as they followed him back.

"I really didn't expect that these Shanyi would follow Wen Yuan's command in everything." Fan Lubing was amazed.

Standing on the gate tower of Liuqiu City and watching thousands of Shanyi leave one after another, the scene is indeed spectacular.

Li Chao smiled and said, "They did not follow my command, but followed the interests. When they interacted with us, these people benefited a lot, especially those chiefs. I have given them a lot of benefits."

"It's just some commercial goods, not much." Fan Lubing shook his head and smiled.

This time, he bought a lot of new land and forest deposits. The Li family could go to Liu to move more people. After this time, Li Chao could also buy the captured Shanyi from the Shanyi as a slave to mine the newly purchased mines for him.

The Shanyi people were covered in a mess. Although there were many people, the former Han people would not come, and they fought every day. Even the two neighboring tribes were all enemies. In the past, Liu Qiu had a big alliance or two, but it eventually collapsed. Li Chao gave him a little temptation to benefit, and these people were all taken to the trap.

In fact, they don’t even have the concept of a country, so there is no way to talk about the overall situation. Anyway, the Tang people are so generous and generous, so of course they have a good relationship with the Tang people.

"In the future, we will use this alliance to constantly conquer other tribes on the island. Through trade and education, we will slowly turn these mountain barbarians into mature families and our people." Li Chao told Fan Lubing that Li Chao spent so much effort to win over the mountain barbarians around Liuqiu City and implemented the strategy of incoming and long-term attacks.

Inbreeding is to avoid attacks and losses in immigrant areas and have room for stable and safe development. As for long-distance attacks, of course, it is to weaken the power of the island of Shanyi and ultimately prepare for the Li family to control the entire Liuqiu Island.

If Li Chao hadn't used Liu Qiu as a base camp to manage it, how could he be so polite to a group of Shanyi? Not to mention that Shanyi had hundreds of thousands, even one million, it would be just a source of slaves in Li Chao's eyes.

Li Chao did think so at the beginning, establishing several slave capturing teams and capturing the islands and transporting them out for sale. It can not only provide labor for the manors and territories in various parts of the Li family, but also secretly train private troops.

But now Li Chao has changed his mind. It is right for the court to include Liu Qiu in the territory, but this is also the fief of the Li family, and the entire island is the fief of the Li family.

The Li family enjoys one-third of the tax rights. At the same time, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. The Li family operates here, which is very convenient. It is close to the southeast coast and is also easy to get up.

Back at the castle, Zhang Zhongjian came to find Li Chao with wine.

"The emperor will know what we do sooner or later." said the bearded man.

"All I did is for a better tomorrow." Li Chao took out the cup and put one in front of him, "Another tired day passed."

"Actually, what I don't understand is that with your achievements today, you can enjoy wealth. Why do you have to work so hard or even take risks?" Zhang Zhongjian poured half a glass of wine for each of them.

Li Chao picked up the wine glass and gently shook the red wine in the glass.

The wine is scarlet, which is the best wine. It uses grapes grown by the Li family on the whale slope on the Bashang Chang'an. The grapes are from Gaochang, the Western Regions. The wine made from this grape is the purest and most delicious.

These wines from Bashang Whalegou have low yields, but they taste excellent and are quite precious.

"The Whalegou Vineyard in the sixth year of Wude has matured for the first time. The wine produced is quite small, and one bottle is less than one." Zhang Zhongjian smiled and sipped it, with an intoxicated look on his face.

Li Chao sipped gently.

"The situation is indeed very good now, but there is no flower of a hundred days of red. Who can guarantee that our great prosperity can last for a long time? The emperor can make a decision on the rise and fall of a word. Today, the emperor supports the development of industry and commerce. Maybe one day the emperor suddenly wants to suppress business again. If we are not prepared at all, we will just let it slaughter."

"If we want to maintain the current good situation, we must have the ability to protect ourselves, and even have a day to limit the imperial power in the future. My goal is to hope that in the future, we nobles and emerging industrial and commercial masters, we can compete with the imperial power and maintain the current good situation."

Zhang Zhongjian tasted the wine.

"Old man, I am so old that I have buried half of my body in the soil. Although it is not the first time I heard you say this, I still feel a little scared when I hear it. Throughout history, you are the first person who dares to plan such things."

He paused, put away his smile and said seriously, "I'll ask you a question seriously. All you have done is really just as you said. To keep this great situation, instead of secretly preparing for rebellion, wanting to be the emperor and be in the world one day?"

Li Chao shook his head.

"I never thought of becoming an emperor. If I thought that way, then I would succeed. So what? It's just repetition and repetition, and there will be no progress. What I want is to completely change this era. An era where the imperial power is bound by the charter, an era where the emperor and nobles and scholars rule the world together, an era where industry and commerce are prosperous, a country is strong and the people are rich, and an era where long-term stability is possible, rather than going through a turbulent cycle in two or three hundred years."

"Do you know? Your words made my old bones boil. It is an ideal country that people yearn for, and I, Zhang Zhongjian, are willing to fight with you. I hope you don't betray what you said today."
