    But at this moment, Li Min's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said eagerly to Wen Xin in his arms: "Wen Xin, how about you go to Sixian with me? The scenery there is good, and Buddhism and Taoism are prosperous, plus  Summer is about to enter, and the temperature in Si'an is lower than that in Dengzhou, so why don't I take you there to escape the heat?"

    "Me? Can I go too?" Wen Xin said in surprise.  She knew that Li Min had important matters to deal with when he went to Sixi. If she went with him, would she cause some trouble to her husband?

    "Of course I can go. I was confused before and didn't expect this. Now Sixian City is under my husband's control. Safety is not a problem. In addition, what I want to do this time is to target the Japanese country, but I will not personally  When I go to Japan, I will probably stay in Sixi City most of the time, so I will definitely be able to spend more time with you!" Li Min said with a smile.

    He was the one who got into trouble before. He used to do everything by himself, but he never thought of taking Wen Xin and the others with him. Anyway, Sixian City is not bad, so it can be regarded as a family trip, and if  If Wen Xin and Xijun can go, then I can seize the time to spread my branches, hahaha~

    Li Min smiled very obscenely. When Wen Xin saw Li Min's look, she couldn't understand what he was thinking. She was so embarrassed that she snuck into Li Min's arms and refused to look up again.

    Since he had made up his mind to take Wen Xin and the others there, Li Min did not waste any time. He informed Xijun of the news the next day and asked her to prepare some things, especially the supplies Chou Chou needed. This time he went with Li Min  Si Xian.  In addition, after Concubine Yang and Empress Xiao returned from Taiwan, Concubine Yang stayed in Dengzhou for a few days before taking her people back to Chang'an, leaving only Empress Xiao and Cai'er to live here. As a result, Li Min personally persuaded  Empress Xiao asked her to go to Sixian to relax. As for Cai'er, she wanted to go there as soon as she heard.  Naturally, he was very happy.

    After settling the matter in Dengzhou, Li Min finally took his whole family to Sixian again. But this time, in addition to his royal fleet, there were also more than a dozen troop transport ships. These ships carried  In addition to the 1,000-man musketry team and 500-man gunners on Perak Island, there are also more than 2,000 muskets and more than 100 artillery pieces, as well as a large amount of gunpowder, grenades, shells and other firearms.

    In addition to this small firearms force, there are also more than 3,000 Kunlun slave troops.  These Kunlun slaves were bought by Chen Gong from slave merchants in various ports at extremely low prices. They were only a little more expensive than ordinary slaves, which could be said to be extremely cost-effective.  In fact, the reason why the prices of these Kunlun slaves are so low is that as the maritime merchants of the Tang Dynasty moved further and further, there were more and more Kunlun slaves, and the price naturally dropped.

    There is another point that is also very critical, that is, a qualified Kunlun slave must undergo strict training. At least the wildness in him must disappear and he must understand Chinese.  Otherwise no one would buy it at all.  However, although the number of Kunlun slaves has increased now, the people who train Kunlun slaves are still the same as before.  As a result, those who trained Kunlun slaves were unable to eat so much goods, and all ended up in the hands of port slave merchants, so the prices were naturally low.

    In just over half a month, Chen Gong purchased more than 3,000 Kunlun slaves, and all of them were shipped to Dengzhou. According to his letter, this was only a part.  There should be more Kunlun slaves coming later.  However, Li Min asked him not to send him to Dengzhou anymore, but to send him directly to Sixi.

    With Silla and Baekje being conquered by Li Min, they were also divided into three Korean states: South, Central and North.  Among them, Sixi is not only the administrative seat of Nanhan Prefecture, but also an important city closest to Dengzhou among the three Hanzhous. Therefore, the route from Dengzhou to Sixiu is very busy. Li Min and the others saw constant merchant ships coming and going, or  Whether carrying people or cargo, the waterline of each boat is very deep, and it seems that the boat owners want to pack as much stuff as possible.

    On Li Min's Qi Wang, Queen Xiao looked at the fleet passing by from time to time, and asked with some confusion: "Liu Lang, I heard when I was in Chang'an that both Baekje and Silla were poor countries, and they had fought against each other before.  After fighting for such a long time, the country must be even more difficult, and in such a poor place, what are these caravans doing there?"

    After hearing this, Li Min smiled and said: "Grandma doesn't know something. After my grandson took control of Silla and Baekje, the two countries were in extreme poverty and the people couldn't even eat. Many places were starved to death. In order to help these victims,  , so Sun'er asked people to recruit workers there and implemented the work-for-food policy, which saved countless people. In addition, many businessmen set up various factories there, so Sanhanzhou has changed. These ships  If the team goes to Sanhan, it should deliver food and raw materials, and those who come back will bring various goods produced by the factory."

    After listening to Li Min's whitewashing explanation, Wen Xin and Cai'er did not doubt it, but praised Li Min for doing the right thing. After all, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. However, Empress Xiao and Xijun had different opinions.  He gave Li Min a deep look, his faceThey all showed half-smiling expressions. Different from Wen Xin and Cai'er, one of them had gone through many vicissitudes of life, and the other was in charge of the business affairs of the palace, so they could naturally hear the meaning of Li Min's words. This little bit of internet mindedness and still young age  Naturally, Cai'er cannot compare with them.

    Dengzhou and Sixi are not far apart. Li Min's fleet quickly arrived at its destination. After arranging Wenxin and Queen Xiao to the palace in Sixi City, the first person Li Min wanted to see was not  Wang An and Lu Hong, who were in charge of government affairs in the city, instead called Hu Li and Zhou Long over, and then handed over the three thousand Kunlun slaves to them, asking them to try their best to train these Kunlun slaves into a capable force in the shortest possible time.  Soldiers of war.

    Zhou Long is a veteran in military training. Although most of these Kunlun slaves do not speak Chinese and it is a bit troublesome to train, it is only a little troublesome for Zhou Long. He has many ways to make these Kunlun slaves obedient.  In addition, Li Min also asked Hu Li to mobilize all available Silla soldiers and train with these Kunlun slaves. He would be of great use then.

    After seeing Zhou Long and the others taking orders to go out, Li Min asked Lu Hong and Wang An to be found, intending to ask if anything happened while he was away from Si Xian.

    "See you, Your Highness!" Wang An and Lu Hong entered the palace side by side and bowed to Li Min together.  They hadn't seen each other for more than a month, and there hadn't been any big changes between the two of them, except that their eyebrows looked a little tired. It seemed that they were both very tired during this period.

    "No need to be polite, nothing major happened in Sanhanzhou during this period, right?" Li Min asked with a smile.

    Upon hearing Li Min's question, Lu Hong and Wang An did not answer immediately, but hesitated for a moment and looked at each other, and then Wang An stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, I have something I want to report!  "

    Li was stunned for a moment. Looking at the expressions of Wang An and the other two, he could guess that there must be something big going on. But he had only been away for such a short time. What kind of big thing could happen?

    At this time, Wang An continued to report: "Your Highness, during this period, Wei Chen and Mr. Lu combined the situation in Sanhanzhou and the development of the power in your hands, and finally came up with a plan that is very beneficial to Your Highness. Now it is  I would like to ask Your Highness to agree to implement it!¡±

    Li Min was very surprised when he heard Wang An's words, and asked with some confusion: "Wang Fu, when I left Sanhan Prefecture, didn't I already give you full authority to handle all the political affairs of Sanhan Prefecture? Since  If you say you have a plan that is very beneficial to me, then go ahead and implement it, you don¡¯t have to ask for my consent for everything!¡±

    Li Min is a lazy person, and he also knows how to delegate power. Usually he only controls the general direction and leaves the rest to his subordinates. But since Wang An and Lu Hong were responsible for the affairs of Sanhan in the first place, he is absolutely responsible for it.  Believe them, Wang An should also understand this. Ordinarily, he should not ask himself for advice on these matters.

    But after hearing Li Min's words, both Wang An and Lu Hong smiled, and Wang An continued: "Your Highness, although I have full authority to deal with the three Hanzhous, this plan involves too much.  And without His Highness¡¯s consent, we still can¡¯t execute it with just the two of us, so I waited until Your Highness came before asking for instructions.¡±

    "What is the plan?" Li Min's appetite had been completely whetted by Wang An and Lu Qing, and he asked with interest.

    "Your Highness, this plan is actually immigration!" Wang An said with a smile on his face.

    "Immigration?" Li Min couldn't understand it now. Where did the immigrants come from?  If we talk about immigrating from the Tang Dynasty to Sanhan Prefecture, although the population of the Tang Dynasty is large, the area is also large. In addition, after the chaos of the late Sui Dynasty, the population has been greatly reduced. It will be difficult for him to immigrate in the south. In fact,  There¡¯s no need to immigrate to a barren place like Samhanju, right?

    Seeing Li Min's puzzled expression, Wang An and Lu Hong laughed, and then told him their plan in detail. After listening to it, Li Min realized that it was not what he thought at all. These two people  They did not intend to immigrate from the Tang Dynasty to the Three Koreas, but to immigrate within the Three Koreas. To be precise, they mainly moved all the people from the South Korea state where they were located to the North and China states.

    After hearing this, Li Min was a little puzzled. The three Hanzhous are all about the same area. Most of them are the homeland of Baekje and have a large population. Although the population has dropped a lot after recruiting workers, if the entire  If all the population of South Korea were to be moved out, it would definitely be a big project. Moreover, after vacating South Korea, what do Wang An and the others plan to do with this land?

    Li Min was proud of his intelligence, but he couldn't think of a reasonable explanation for the above questions. He had to look at Wang An and Lu Hong again in confusion.  At this time, Lu Hong, who had been silent, took a step forward and said with a firm expression: "Your Highness, Wei Chen and Wang Fu decided on this plan for two main reasons!"
