"No, no." Smiling and waving his hands, Gu Qing went on to explain, "In fact, a big city was built there. The geographical location of this big city can be advanced or retreated, and it can be used as a barrier in the future. In fact, what you said is not true. Wrong, it can be built into a military town, but apart from the military town, it can’t just be used as a military town, it can go down to the South China Sea through the land of Shu, and do business.”

For the Nanhai generation, Chu Suiliang finally understood what Gu Qing meant when he heard this, and a smile appeared on his face. It turned out that Gu Qing had already been thinking about Nanzhao and Tianzhu.

Speaking of which, we both understood each other here, Fang Xuanling picked up some memorials and went to find Li Er, Gu Qing held the memorials in his hand that had not been approved and said to the small official of Zhongshu Province next to him, "Go and write the memorials. Anyone who has passed this memorial please come to my house."

"But, this..." The little official at the side felt a little troubled, this Gu Qing was the minister.

"Go ahead and do what Shang Shuling said." Chu Suiliang said to the little official beside him.

The other party just started to do things, Gu Qing waved the fan in his hand, "You people from Zhongshu Province are really difficult to control."

"They are just doing their duty faithfully." Chu Suiliang said, "Gu Qing, you said that you want to build the land of Shu, so who should build the land of Shu, and the court may not necessarily provide money for this matter. In the eyes of ministers in the DPRK and China, that place has been ignored."

"To redevelop a place, the money, food and manpower needed is not a small amount." Gu Qing also nodded thoughtfully, "Of course I can understand that the money and taxes of the court will not be spent on such a place, right?"

"Yes." Chu Suiliang also nodded, "That piece of land has always been at the border, and the mountains and forests are too dense. In many cases, there is some chaos there, or after being invaded, the court will send people to rehabilitate. It’s good to come back, it’s good to calm down if there’s a mess.”

"This is a good place." Gu Qingchang sighed, "Donghai and Liangzhou are both good places."

Chu Suiliang watched Gu Qing leave with surprise in his heart, Donghai, Liangzhou, Shu?

Back home, the Tian Renkun who wrote the memorial was here, and Gu Qinglai came to this young man who was busy with the world and said, "You are the patriarch of that part of Shu."

"This is Lord Hou." The other party also said with a smile, "I have admired Lord Hou for a long time, but I have always wanted to see him but there is no way."

"I've seen your memorial, it's very good." Gu Qing looked at Tian Renkun.

"Actually, I also have some Meng Lang." Tian Renkun went on to explain, "Maybe a little offended, in fact, this time I came to Chang'an to meet Gu County Marquis. There have been many rumors about Gu County Marquis in Guanzhong, and I have heard about them until now. Seeing the village under Gu Xianhou’s rule, I had an idea. In fact, I am just a small patriarch of a small village, not a big clan. I submitted the memorial to Zhongshu Province in the name of a big patriarch because I heard that Hou The Lord is the Minister of the Book, and he often goes to Zhongshu Province."

"I just want to let Gu Xianhou see this memorial. If it fails once, it will be twice or three times. I just hope that Lord Hou can see the location of Shu."

"What if I'm not interested in your memorial?"

"Then I have no choice but to come to Guxian Hou's house to ask for advice." Tian Renkun smiled wryly, "I just hope that Lord Hou can see the situation in Shu, and I hope that Shu can be better. At least there are Chang'an and Gu County. Waiting for 01:30 in the village is enough."

Looking at him, Gu Qing also realized that there were such twists and turns, and said to the servants at home, "Call me Zhang Jie."

The servant went to work immediately, and Gu Qing then said to Tian Renkun, "What do you want your Shu land to be like?"

"In fact, as long as it's better." Tian Renkun continued, "In recent years, there have been frequent fights among the various ethnic groups in Shu, and they fought violently because of some things, so I think someone needs to take care of it."

"Don't worry, I will arrange it." Gu Qing nodded, "Go back first."

Tian Renkun nodded and left.

This era is no better than the future. In this era, wanting to change many things is not a matter of a few words. There are many, many things that need to be done.

"Master Hou, did you call me?" Zhang Jie walked lazily with a grass root in his mouth, "By the way, the factory is running out of money recently, so you can transfer some money over here."

"Let's not talk about this first, when the accounts come down, you will naturally give you the money your factory asks for, and my girl will be watching." Gu Qing looked at Zhang Jie and said, "Choose a few from the factory who are willing to pay you." People who have traveled long distances to Shu, remember to be capable, charismatic, and capable."

"Yes." Zhang Jie nodded, "There are so many people here."

"That's good." Gu Qing said, "You pull these out separately, I'll be useful."

"I'll do it right away." Zhang Jie nodded and said, just as he was about to leave, he said, "Master Hou, that... Thank you for making my marriage possible."

"Thank your lady for going, it's all arranged by the girl." Gu Qing waved his hand, "Hurry up and go back and do your work."

"Okay." Zhang Jie hurriedly left.

Li Zhi kept hearing from the beginning to the end, "What happened to Shu?"

"It's nothing." Gu Qing returned home and planned to continue looking at the blue sky in a daze.

"There must be something." Li Zhi stuck to Gu Qing, "Did you find something, and you don't want us to know."

"Nothing." Gu Qing said again, "His Royal Highness, I want to rest, can you give me some space?"

"There must be, you are a person who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles." Li Zhi stared at Gu Qing, "If you don't say it, I'll expose the fact that that guy submitted the memorial under a false name."

"..."

"Okay." Gu Qing said compromisingly, "I do have a plan. I want to open a foreign trade base somewhere. The real purpose of building there is because its geographical location is particularly good, and it can become a hub from the South China Sea to the Central Plains. I'm done talking, can His Highness King Jin let me go now?"

"Go, let's go." Li Zhi was still suspicious as he said, is there anything in the South China Sea that deserves Gu Qing's attention?No, it's too wrong, this Gu Qing kept half of what he said, so he must have other purposes.

"Trade, trade, trade is all for trade." Gu Qing said leisurely while lying on the bamboo chair.

Sure enough, it's still for business!Li Zhi glanced at Gu Qing in disgust, couldn't this guy actually do something for Datang?

Chapter 422 Enlighten Li Zhi

"Gu Qing." Li Zhi walked to Gu Qing's side, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do, and is there anything I can do."

"His Royal Highness, just keep breathing." Gu Qing closed his eyes and enjoyed the coolness here.

"Huh..." Li Zhi stomped his feet anxiously, "Gu Qing, in your eyes, am I just an idle prince who only knows how to eat!"

"I still know of a kind of Fanbang delicacy called pizza." Gu Qing nodded thoughtfully, "Does His Royal Highness want to eat it?"

"Think..." Li Zhi immediately came back to his senses, "Gu Qing, you...you talk! I'll just..."

With a dry smile, Gu Qing changed his posture, "Actually, His Royal Highness Jin Wang doesn't need to think about doing too many things. In fact, you are still young, and you should be in charge of innocence now."

Li Zhi sat down beside Gu Qing, "Everyone has something to do, but I am the most free."

"And me." Gu Qing smiled and winked at Li Zhi.

"Hmph!" Li Zhi glanced at Gu Qing with disgust, "I don't want to be like you."

"After experiencing the parting of life and death, people will know that life is short." Gu Qing put away the folding fan in his hand, "Besides, I plan to retire in a few years, what do you like, His Royal Highness needs to see more now Learn, don't rush to do it."

"But!" Li Zhi said unconvinced, "I just do something to show my father and my brothers."

Did the little guy have been stimulated by something? Gu Qing stretched out his hand to check the temperature of Li Zhi's forehead, and muttered to himself, "No, it doesn't look like he's sick."

"You are the one who is sick!" Li Zhi jumped up angrily and pointed at Gu Qing, then left angrily, and after the anger disappeared, he sat at the door of the house in a daze.

This is a troublesome child, Gu Qing got up and took a peach and sat beside Li Zhi, "His Royal Highness, you are still young, there is a saying that haste makes waste."

"I know, I know, it was said by an unknown hero with profound martial arts." Li Zhi lowered his head decadently.

Gu Qing handed the peaches to Li Zhi, watching the snack eat the peaches, "His Royal Highness, is it delicious?"

"..." Li Zhi stopped eating peaches abruptly.

"Actually, I have a big plan in mind." Gu Qing whispered, "The big plan in my heart is maritime trade, ocean trade."
