Chapter 111: Tea Horse

Because of the poor management of the owner of the rouge shop, he has lost a lot of money in recent years, and the family is noisy, thinking about going back to his hometown, and is anxious to recover the capital, so he put out a sign of low-price transfer, and Xia Yuzhi just caught up, turned around and ordered Xiao Luochen. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Xiao Luochen did things neatly, and immediately left his henchmen to operate this matter, pretending to be a businessman, and the price offered was very fair, because he saw that the boss of the rouge shop was a little ineffective, and promised to transfer some of his goods and told him to travel lightly.

The owner of the rouge shop got cheap, so he was very cooperative with the delivery procedures, and it was only ten days and eight days before and after, and the rouge shop changed hands years ago.

Now that the rouge shop has been delivered, it is just a big man in Xia Yuyi, who has no one to run it, and he is afraid that his people will come and go here frequently, which will attract a cold awakening on the other side.

Privately inquired about the meaning of Luo Nayan, who said that he wanted to return to Xia Mansion to continue to work for Xia Yuzhi, and also wanted to open a pharmacy in Beijing, hoping to take the opportunity to find his sister.

Luo Nayan said to Xia Yuzhi that the Luo family has been practicing medicine for generations, hanging out their own signboards and prescribing their own prescriptions, if my sister is really in the capital, she can see it one day, and she can also follow these prescriptions to find it.

Not only can he inherit his father's medical skills, but also add hope to find his relatives, Luo Nayan pleaded with Xia Yuzhi to help him gain a firm foothold in the capital.

The title deed of the real estate of the rouge shop, Ronyan felt that the gift was too heavy, and he was ashamed of it, so he was only willing to rent it. Where did Xia Yuzhi put a little money in his eyes, he was too lazy to worry more about the nerd, and only asked someone to take him to see the location of the Rouge Department first.

Pedestrians one after another, traffic like weaving, is a first-class bustling place in Beijing shelved, Ronyan is very satisfied with the shop in this downtown area, immediately by the Xia Mansion to help operate, just a few dozen days, the pharmacy has been opened.

At a clever angle to the cool side doors, two new windows hung in pale Hangzhou silk were opened. The light of several mirrors hidden in the dark is refracted, and the field of vision is very wide, that is, you can glimpse the staircase leading to the second floor, and you can glimpse the long and cool corridor.

Xia Yuzhi buried two secret agents in the pharmacy, openly doing chores, and secretly monitoring the movements of Blind Liang, which is very convenient.

"Do you want to go and see, now there is a small door at the back of the pharmacy, and there is a secret room in the medicine store, so you can do it cheaply", Xia Yuzhi spread the floor plan of the pharmacy on the case and pointed to the location in the southwest corner.

This direction is a dead end relative to the blind sight, and if there is wind and grass, it cannot be transmitted to the teahouse.

Murong Wei followed Xia Yuzhi's fingers and looked at the remodeled pharmacy, and nodded with satisfaction: "Although Massachusetts is small, it is a good place hidden in the city. ”

The layout of the pharmacy adopted Song Weiyuan's suggestion, and the mirrors that could spy on the movement were also Song Weiyuan's handiwork, Xia Yuzhi had seen it with his own eyes, and praised Murong Wei for the mystery.

There must be something strange behind the coldness, as for the woman surnamed Mei, Murong Wei was a little curious, she didn't find the secret of this teahouse in her previous life, and she didn't know who the owner behind it was.

The hair in front of his forehead slipped down, covering his eyes, Murong Wei pinned the strand of black hair to his ear, and his crystal eyes showed the calmness of deceiving the frost and snow: "Third brother, talk well about your people, don't startle the snake, otherwise, the small fish bites the hook, the big fish sinks, and it will be even more difficult to stir it again." ”

Xia Yuzhi nodded again and again, he understood that Murong Wei's words were very reasonable, and several things were implicated in Yiliang in a row, whether it was the other party's flaws or the abandoned son deliberately thrown out, at this time, Xia Yuzhi had already faintly felt the pressure.

Out of Xiu was anxious to expand his power, Xia Yuzhi still kept it in the dark, and unconsciously, he remembered Murong Wei's previous suggestion not to stick to the restaurant in Qingyang Building, Wuling Lane.

Since you want to do it, you should naturally weave a dense net, whether it is a teahouse, a theater, a restaurant, or a brothel, the people around you will make up an identity, and they will all be hidden in the three religions and nine streams.

As for the visitor from Yunnan who was mentioned by Su Duhan again, Murong Wei sneered, and tapped the jasper filigree on Xia Lanxin's book case with her fingers, and her eyes were sharp ice edges.

She played with a few branches of white camellia blooming in the dendrobium in her hand, and there was a hint of chill in her words: "I suspect that this person is not very simple, and if he makes a casual move, he will have tea bricks sold on the ancient tea horse road." ”

Tea, silk, salt, ironware, these are all mouth-watering profits.

Salt and iron tools need to be guided, all in the hands of the government, if someone sells it privately, it is a capital crime to turn around if they are caught. If it weren't for the collusion between officials and businessmen to seek violence, ordinary people would not dare to ask about it.

There are three ancient tea horse roads, one in Shaanxi and Gansu, most of which are exchanged for tea for Tibetan horses, most of which are in Jian'an, and a small part of them are connected to the Silk Road. There is no shortage of pastures in Jian'an, and there are good horses in hand, and the road has basically been repurposed.

More and more people took this Shaanxi-Gansu-Tibet Ancient Tea and Horse Road no longer to sell horses, but to sell silk to the Western Regions in exchange for higher profits.

Because of the border with Jian'an, the two countries have been mutually beneficial and interconnected in recent years, and this road is safe, relatively, there are more government harvests, and the profits are not too high.

Su Duhan did not mention whether his cousin's friend took the ancient tea horse road in Sichuan-Tibet or Yunnan-Tibet, or it was simply a pretext, not any of his friends, but he himself had been going back and forth on these steep ancient tea horse roads, so he didn't care about those old tea bricks at all.

And no matter which way you go, with tea and horses, as far as an ordinary merchant is concerned, this business is a bit big.

And these two ancient tea horse roads, you have to trek through mountains and rivers, climb over many high mountains, and cross the Brahmaputra River, and there is no group of people with real skills under your hands, and you will never be able to walk this road.

can take the tea brick and give it away, Murong Wei doesn't believe that the visitor from Yunnan is so rich, there must be another shortcut.

In front of the two of them, spread out a complete map of the whole of China, carefully scrutinize the map, no matter how you look at it, draw a circle with Yunnan as the center, in the territory of Kangnan, and border with Nanzhao, a number of ethnic tribes are mixed, the terrain is dangerous, and everywhere is the land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

Murong Wei analyzed it thoroughly, and Xia Yu's heart also had an iron abacus crackling. Both of them were sure in their hearts that this visitor from Yunnan was afraid that it would not be so simple. Walking all year round, not to mention dealing with many tribes in the ancient kingdom of Nanzhao, where are the horses he sold from Tibet, and whose hands are he going to go into in the end?

Xia Yuzhi had already followed Murong Wei's advice before, and sent a few elite people from Xiu to Yunnan to find out the origin of this person. It's just that the mountains and rivers are long, coming and going, and there is no news for a while. Now that it looks closely, Yunnan is only afraid that there is a bigger wind and rain brewing, and more manpower is needed. (To be continued.) )
