It was better to have a common language when talking. The customer's expression was obviously much better than before.
"So, with our Emperor's character, can he tolerate this?" Qin Song said.
How could our Great Tang hide from them?
They were just Eastern Turks, a nomadic race that had little interest in land. Their goal in the south was to plunder.
Moreover, he did not want the Great Tang to grow stronger.
If he wanted treasures, he would just give them to him. He would endure for a few years to protect the people's livelihood and train his troops. This was the peace of the people.
Then, he would send a few spies to infiltrate the enemy's ranks and slowly divide them…
As the saying went, to resist foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the interior. After unifying the interior, he would then befriend Xue Yantuo and the Huihe before sending envoys to befriend the Western Turks.
In this way, the north, east, and south of Jie Li Khan will be allied with our Great Tang. This is the geographical advantage.
With these two, as long as the time came and the army set out, they would be able to capture Jie Li Khan alive and wipe out the humiliation.”
After Qin Song finished speaking, he patted Li Shiming's shoulder: "Follow His Majesty well. When you have money, come here and eat more.”
This was definitely the most expensive steamed bun Li Shiming had ever eaten.
But at this moment, he felt that this meal was too cheap.
It was simply a great bargain.
He hadn't been able to come to a decision on how to deal with the Turks.
He didn't expect that a meal of steamed buns would have such an enlightening effect.
As for how to govern the Great Tang, some people believed that they should imitate the Qin Emperor and Han Emperor, and others believed that they should expand their military power and show their might.
On the other hand, Wei Zheng believed that they should stop the war by resting with the people to restore the country's strength.
Li Shiming also felt that Wei Zheng was right, but this guy had only submitted to him for less than a month. Although he gave him a high position, he still did not accept his submission.
Now that the little shopkeeper had said this, Li Shimin felt that the little shopkeeper had said it better than Wei Zheng.
Looking at Qin Song's casual tone, Li Shiming felt that he was not simple. The behavior of ordinary people was different from ordinary people. Otherwise, who could sell steamed buns for fifty wen per tray? From this point of view, it was not simple.
If Qin Song knew what Li Shiming was thinking, he would definitely feel that he was not simple. Only a fool would eat a tray of buns worth fifty copper coins. In the end, this big fool ate six trays.
"Little Shopkeeper, what you said does make sense. War is nothing more than the right time, the right place, and the right people. Since our Great Tang has the right place and the right people, where is the time?”
"Do you really want to know?"
"Of course." Li Shimin nodded.
"Give me a few more trays of steamed buns."
Li Shi Min was stunned for a moment before he smiled." Alright, I'll have some more. It's so delicious. I'm sure I can eat it."”
Qin Song smiled as he served four trays of buns.""You eat first, let's talk slowly."
It wasn't easy for someone to eat buns, so he had to eat more.
"Little shopkeeper, tell me, where is the time?”
"What are the Turks most afraid of? It was a snowstorm. If the Turks were to suffer a snowstorm one day, they would lose a large number of cattle and sheep.
"At that time, Jie Li Khan will definitely plunder the surrounding tribes. It will definitely cause a huge commotion and make the world his enemy."
At that time, I will have the right time, the right place, and the right person. Wherever the Great Tang's sword points, I will be invincible!”
Li Shi Min slapped the table excitedly." Good, good! Little shopkeeper is indeed a capable person. You're so young, but you can see things so clearly."”
Li Shiming stood up and paced back and forth. His thoughts became clearer.
"In your opinion, how long will it take for His Majesty to wipe out the Turks?" he asked.”
Qin Song thought for a moment,"The slowest is six years, the fastest is three years."”
"Three years?" Li Shi Min thought for a while and shook his head,"Six years is possible, but three years is definitely not possible.”
"That's you, you're not His Majesty. How do you know it's impossible?”
"You're not His Majesty, how do you know that three years is possible?" Li Shi Min laughed.”
"I have four words. As long as Your Majesty understands the meaning of these four words, you will definitely wipe out the Turks in three years and wash away your shame."”
"Which four words?"
"A few more trays of buns?" Qin Song chuckled.”
"I haven't finished eating these."
"Go back and heat it up for your wife and children. How can you enjoy delicious food alone?"
Li Shi Min was stunned for a moment, then nodded." Alright, I have many children at home. I'll give you ten more drawers."”
"You see, it's easy to talk to smart people." You eat first and get it later. Don't let it get cold again.”
"Hurry up and tell me, which four words?"
Qin Song stretched out four fingers.”
Li Shimin thought for a while and said,"This sentence comes from the Biography of Liu De, King Xian of Hejian in Han Dynasty."'Cultivate ancient knowledge and seek truth from facts.'”
"Uncle Li is indeed a knowledgeable person. I don't even know where he came from, but do I know what it means?”
"Don't exaggerate, don't be perfunctory, don't be deceived, don't be complacent. This is the truth."
What a good explanation. Sigh, I sold a few less baskets of buns.
Li Shi Min ate the steamed bun while thinking about the matter. The more he thought about it, the more correct it was. He couldn't help but say,"Your words are really not bad. To govern a country, one must first seek truth from facts.”
After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh." You're a rare talent, little shopkeeper. Why don't you study hard and get an official position in the future? It'll bring honor to your ancestors."”
Studying? Are you giving me points for studying?
Qin Song shook his head." How can studying be better than selling steamed buns? In the future, before the ministers go to court, they will all eat breakfast here. Wouldn't that make them rich every day?"”
"Aren't you afraid that others will find trouble with you?”
"Who dares? Opposite them was the Imperial Palace. They were making trouble under the eyes of the emperor. They did not want to live anymore.”
Qin Song looked at the palace and smiled." Look at this position. This is the only way to go to court. All the princes and ministers will see that there is a breakfast shop here."
Slowly, they would be attracted by the fragrance. If they didn't eat and drink to their fill, how could they go to court?”
"It's really rare to have a bowl of porridge and some buns here, especially in the cold winter," Li Shimin said with a smile. It's just that the price is too expensive."
Qin Song waved his hand." Don't worry. You can buy 24 trays of buns. They will only buy more." By the way, sincerity is 730 wen."
"That can't be right. I have a total of 14 trays of buns, and it's only 700 wen at most.”
"Cut the crap. I'll get you another 10 Herbal Tea Eggs.”
