"Didn't the empire have set up a Governor's Office in Myanmar? So have their lives changed?" Xiao Tang asked slowly while pondering.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head. Kapok and Shi Liu couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Xiao, if life could be better, who would be willing to leave his hometown and travel thousands of miles to survive? The Tiannan area under Lang Yongquan was also living in the southern part of the country. Their environment was not much different from that of Jinzhou before Lord Li entered the northwest. The Myanmar land is now under the control of Lang Yongquan. Although the Myanmar land is vast and sparse, they still discriminate against the Gaoyue people who live there. They strictly prohibit the Gaoyue people from moving out of the mountainous areas and stationed guards near the foothills to prevent us Gaoyue people from moving secretly into the plains."

Nodding silently, Xiao Tang also knew that the entire continent seemed to have no place except the northwest and northern Luzon, even if it nominally recognized the equal rights of the Gaoyue people, let alone truly granting actual equal status. Tiannan and Myanmar under Lang Yongquan's rule was no exception.

"Two elders, I want to ask again. I wonder how many Gaoyue people live in the eastern foot of Dahengduan Mountain, which is the territory of the empire, such as Xikang Prefecture in Guanxi, and Bashan Prefecture?" Xiao Tang asked slowly.

"Well, there are not many people from Gao Yue in these two prefectures. There are about 20,000 to 30,000 people in Xikang Prefecture, and about 30,000 to 40,000 people in Bashan Prefecture." Kapok felt even more nervous when he heard Xiao Tang's question, but at this time, he couldn't care about many.

"Well, do the Gao Yue people living in these two mansions have the idea of ​​moving to the northwest?" Xiao Tang asked immediately.

He nodded slowly, Kapok and Shi Liu exchanged their eyes and replied briefly: "Sure, too."

"Well, two elders, this is not a small matter. I think there are so many people coming here, it is indeed difficult to arrange. However, Lord Li has always cared about Gaoyue people. Although they do not belong to our jurisdiction, since they can trust our northwest and Lord Li, I think we cannot let them down. But you also know that the current financial situation of our northwest, including the Northern Luzon governments, is easy to come, but to reach the level of Gaoyue people who live in the current region.

It's unlikely, but we can't turn people away from the door and ignore them, so we have to come up with a way to get the best of both worlds." Xiao Tang looked at the two with a smile and said sincerely: "I think this is good. Lord Li is leading his troops now, and I'm afraid he won't come back for a while. Anyway, this matter is not in a hurry. I think I will discuss it with several other departments under the Jiedushi's Office, and then we will report to him after Lord Li comes back. What do you think?"

"Haha, that's natural. Let's wait for Lord Li to come back before discussing carefully." Kapok and Shi Liu also knew that no matter what method they were taking about this matter, Li Wufeng would eventually need to make a decision. Let's report first, like Xiao Tang, and hope that the other party can be prepared earlier, and it's best to come up with a proper plan earlier.

He ordered the servants to take the two to the inn to rest and to deliver them to the gate in person. Xiao Tang returned to the study thoughtfully, "Come on, please invite Lord Su to come to my place."

As a burst of hearty laughter rang outside the door, Xiao Tang knew that Su Qin had arrived, and his assistant and friend Wang Liao came with Su Qin.

"Haha, Brother Su, Brother Wang, please come in quickly, come coffee or tea?" Xiao Tang and the two were already quite familiar with each other and spoke quite casually.

"Hehe, come on coffee. I heard that the coffee you have here is the best, and you can't drink it?" Su Qin was not polite, and sat down carelessly, swaying the folding fan, looking leisurely and contented.

Xiaoxiao shook his head, while Xiao Tang signaled the servant to leave, briefly introduced the purpose of Kapok and Shiliu and the situation he had mastered. Finally, he said: "With my original intention, we must adopt a laissez-faire attitude. In the past few years, we have accepted countless immigrants from all over the world, and the number is far more than Gao Yue people who wanted to come this time. It would be inappropriate to refuse it, but Kapok and Shiliu must have hoped to obtain some preferential conditions for these people, such as advance subsidies or loans in building houses, living, working, etc., but now our finances are already stretched and we don't have much money to bear. We really can't help."

"Brother Xiao, it's not just this. You seem to have other meanings inside?" Su Qin twisted his fingers and spread the folding fan, staring at the other party.

"Well, I can't hide it from you. You and I are not outsiders. Everyone knows that Lord Li has a lot of thought, and these Gaoyue people are scattered on the foothills of the Hengduan Mountains, distributed in several countries and regions. According to Xiao Tang's view, if they can win over their hearts, they can keep them in their original place in the future. For example, they live in Myanmar, Guanxi and even the southern ends and in the Pasha people." When saying these words, Xiao Tang's voice unconsciously lowered a little.

Su Qin sighed in his heart that the other party's foresight and excellence did make him feel pressured. With just such a thing, the other party can make such judgments based on his boss's possible future actions. It is a pity that he has a keen and unique feeling in this regard.

"Well, this is indeed worth discussing. Hundreds of thousands of Gaoyue people can generate such huge energy that can be used well, which is enough to turn the world upside down." Wang Liao also nodded fiercely, and a hint of excitement appeared on his high cheekbones. "Especially, the Xikang Prefecture and Bashan Prefecture of Guanxi County, which are close to the northwest, are both realistic and huge, and perhaps it is what Lord Li dreams of."

Seeing that Xiao and Su were listening carefully to their opinions, Wang Liao was even more excited, "This time, Lord Li entered the east to Geroke. Once the situation in Molington stabilized, he would inevitably return. Lu Long and Queqiao Pass were already in our hands, forming a pincer attack on Longdong. Even if the enemy restrained in the Anyuan direction, it would be enough to suppress the enemy in Longdong from acting rashly. On the other hand, if Lord Li wanted to march into the Central Plains, he would have to start from Queqiao Pass and look east of Queqiao Pass. The Longdong Prefecture City was strong and difficult to overcome. If you want to capture this city, you would have to spend a lot of money. Then the other way was to march southeast into Xikang!"

"Brother Wang, you said it well, please continue." Xiao Tang and Su Qin were also very interested.

"So let's take a look at the geographical situation of Xikang Prefecture. Xikang Prefecture is located in the northwest corner of Guanxi County, with Bashan Prefecture to the south, Hanzhong, the capital of Guanxi County to the east, and the vast Great Hengduan Mountains to the west, and Longdong to the north. To talk about geographical location, Xikang's location is not very important. It is neither a transportation rush nor a must. However, the terrain here is high in the west and low in the east, especially the eastern and central areas are very flat, mostly grasslands and grass mountains, which are easy to attack and difficult to defend." Wang Liao carefully twisted a few beards under his jaw, and he analyzed carefully.

"If Lord Li wants to march south into Xikang, the Gaoyue people living at the foot of Hengduan Mountain will truly become a secret person, and may be able to perform unexpected miraculous effects." Wang Liao's face was filled with excitement.

"Well, Brother Wang's analysis was indeed thorough, but there were not many Gao Yue people living in Xikang Prefecture, and they had not received any organizational training, so it would be difficult to play a big role." Xiao Tang did not agree with the other party's point of view very much.

"Brother Xiao, if you are about to take this step, it will be difficult to play a big role, but if there is some time to buffer, then we can borrow this period of time to do a good job. It's just that I don't know what Lord Li's strategic intention is. This must be decided by Lord Li himself." Wang Liao was full of confidence in his opinion.

"Oh, I hope to have more time to buffer. It's not that I'm considering the matter of Xikang Prefecture, but that our finances really can't support such frequent wars. I saw that Rao had lost two laps two days ago. No wonder he had limited funds, but he had to prepare all the supplies within the specified time and transport them to the designated location. It was really hard for him." Xiao Tang could not help but sigh as if he was thinking of something.

"Brother Xiao is discussing with Moron to increase the tax standard for slave trade? If this standard is raised, it might be better." Wang Liao also smiled and comforted Xiao Tang.

"I can only say that the food is better than nothing." Xiao Tang shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Haha, I see that those slave merchants are also moving around, and even His Highness Seventeenth Princess is crowded with people. Maybe the slave merchants want to take this line to deal with the upcoming consultation meeting." Su Qin glanced at his colleagues and said lightly.

"Oh? Your Highness Seventeenth Princess?" Xiao Tang was stunned. This was a new thing. Even the slave traders had the idea of ​​Seventeenth Princess or did Seventeenth Princess intend to come to them? A trace of doubt immediately arose in Xiao Tang's heart.

Just as the three of them were talking, the protagonist in the words was busy receiving visitors coming and going. Although he was a little tired, Situ Yutang felt very relieved. At least someone had noticed his existence and knew his influence. He had to eat one bite at a time. As long as he accumulates slowly, there would always be forces willing to rely on the empire to serve. Although this first group of people knew slave merchants, Situ Yutang still did not feel ashamed of warm reception.

After sending off the last group of slave merchants, Situ Yutang sat back into the chair with a little tiredness, and the maid gently massaged her shoulders.

"Your Highness, these are all slave merchants. How could your Highness be so polite to these people?" Looking at his master in confusion, all the outsiders on his shoulder had left, and the captain of the guard couldn't help but ask.
