Li Jun has been subjected to all kinds of ridicule and ridicule from his grandmother when he was a child, and when he knew what these ridicules and ridicule represented, there was such a speechless problem.

It is precisely because of this problem that he later moved out of his mother's room to live alone, and was able to read and write and learn the way of the saints, which can be regarded as a blessing and a curse.

His rash came quickly, but it didn't go quickly, and it would itch for days. It's just a pity that so many people didn't get drunk with him, but his image was going to be ruined at the hands of this young girl.

Who will tell him that the female status of the Karma people is not low, but why can she represent a tribe of her to come out and drink with men? Is this normal? Won't her father and mother be worried?

What a bad moral!

Li Jun took advantage of the girl's surprise to leave the big tent, found a small corner and put water, which was much easier, and prepared to go back to the big tent to settle the drunk colleagues.

"Ahh Li Jun turned around and was startled. "You woman is so shameless, actually, you actually look at me ......"

Li Jun was ashamed and wanted to die.

And the face of the girl was red. She chased the Han man out and wanted him to go back to the tent, but he found a meadow with no one and lifted the hem of his clothes......

“&*%&￥%……#%#！” (I swear I didn't see anything!) ）

She closed her eyes!

"I don't understand what the girl is saying. But it was rude for the girl to do so. Li Jun frowned and turned his head to leave, this precarious girl really doesn't know what to say, and Tana of the Suluk tribe is not the same type at all.

Tana at least knows etiquette.

“*&*&*%&…… ￥%￥￥！ (I don't understand what you're saying, but I didn't mean to.) ）

"Girl, please get out of the way, I'm going back to the tent."

She was willing to look at the puddle of water stains and showed her a good look.

“&……%…… ￥%&##！ (Where are you going?) ）

“&……*￥……##！” (You Han Chinese are so rude!) ）

Li Jun returned to the tent, held back the itching on his face, and continued to drink with the remaining members of the Mutu tribe.

There are three major tribes, all named after the most prominent leader of the tribe, just like the Suluk tribe of Suluk.

It's just that Suluk led small and medium-sized tribes with only more than 300 people, and each of these three tribes had a few thousand people, scattered in the depths of the steppe.

In terms of numbers, this group of people is not much, but what is commendable is that Da Chu used to buy horse breeds from the people close to Fenzhou, and the money and grain exchanged for the transaction helped them survive the most difficult year, so the attitude of the people towards Da Chu was very friendly. Many of the Suluk tribes in the south can speak Chinese, and it is easy to communicate with the Han Chinese.

Mutu is a tribe in the north, with more men than women, and women of very high status. Originally, the clan was determined by matrilinealism, and whether a clansman was their descendant or not depended on whether the mother was a Karma.

This time, there were fifteen envoys from the three tribes, and among them were two women, in addition to the sister of the patriarch of the great tribe of Holun, the other was Douling, the daughter of the leader of the Mutu tribe.

Douling is a transliteration, Tana asked her to choose a Chinese name similar to her own Chinese name, and Douling found her favorite Douzi and Lingzi among the many Chinese characters, which became the Chinese name of her name.

In fact, she herself doesn't know what these two Chinese characters mean, she has just learned Chinese, she just thinks these two are interesting.

Drinking is no stranger to Li Jun, but he is not an alcoholic, and he is not good at drinking. Li Jun's grandfather had to drink wine every day to eat, and he used wine to accompany his meal, and after Li Jun was a little older, his grandfather developed a drinking amount, and he was never drunk by others, and this time was no exception.

What surprised him the most was that the girl was still standing, her eyes shining and scary.

He was worried that this girl would get drunk if she drank it again, and after all, the other party was a woman, and he really didn't know what to do with it, so he had to buckle the wine bowl upside down on the table with a big red face and arch his hand.

"The girl has a lot of them, and she admits defeat in the next."

It's not that Douling isn't drunk, the more drunk she gets, the more sober she becomes, and she looks like she has a look in her eyes, but in fact she doesn't have any consciousness.

"Girl?" Li Jun sighed, "Girl? You win! ”

Do you have to fall?

Li Jun pushed the bowl farther away, leaned on the table, and made it look like he had already drunk it.

As soon as he lay down in front of him, he heard a "bang" behind him, and secretly looked up to see that it was the girl who was already lying on the table.

These Karma people...... It's really stubborn.

Li Jun stood up, and in the huge tent, there were many people lying horizontally. He resigned himself to moving Wang Yiguan's arms and chest out from under Zuo Shaoqing's head, so as not to let Wang Yiguan wake up first and be scared to death, or Lord Zuo Shaoqing would wake up first and punch Wang Yiguan. Then all the officials who were lying down in strange postures in Honglu Temple were helped to sleep on the carpet, so as not to get up with pain all over their bodies.

The people were even more drunk, and all kinds of nonsense and snoring shook the sky.

The people of Lingyuan County did not agree with the Hu people to live in the city, so at the suggestion of Lord Zuo Shaoqing, the people of Lingyuan County set up a large tent group in the area designated by Dachu outside Lingyuan County as a temporary residence.

The people were accustomed to living in tents, and they were very satisfied with the fact that there was a water source and horses nearby.

Li Jun's face was uncomfortable, and he ran to the stream to wash his face, thinking that he would have to "see people without face" for several days, he really couldn't cry or laugh.

This banquet made all the people admire Li Jun's drinking, Suluk's tribe had already been drunk by Li Jun, which was not surprising, but the most unexpected was Zuo Shaoqing's group of officials, who looked at Li Jun like a monster.

"You drink like this, don't you have a headache and a bad stomach?" Wang Yiguan rubbed his head and asked weakly.

"It doesn't hurt, I drink too much and have a small abdominal distention, it's always convenient, it's not very comfortable." Li Jun scratched his face.

"Your face? Do you have it after you drink? ”

If the result of drinking alcohol is disfigurement, he is still drunk.

"No, I'm sick, I'll be fine in a few days." Li Jun was embarrassed to say that he was afraid of women, so he had to bring it over lightly.

Zuo Shaoqing sat up with the support of his subordinates, and he really had a headache.

He drank a lot of alcohol, and he also knew that on the first day of the big tent, the people of the Daoist Karma had to welcome guests, and they would not return if they were not drunk, and many things in this big tent were sent by their Honglu Temple, and it was normal for the Karma people to entertain them.

But it was too uncomfortable to drink themselves with the wine they gave them until they couldn't get up.

"Looks like it's a bit useful to keep you down." Zuo Shaoqing said softly, "You are not useless. ”

Li Jun smiled innocently.

They stayed in the place where the Karma people lived, just to take counsel about the mutual market.

This is also for the purpose of sending so many supplies.

At the beginning of the establishment of the mutual market, there was nothing to trade with the people. They also have cattle and sheep Han people, Fenzhou produces horses and cattle and sheep, and there are many kinds of vegetables that the people don't have, so there is no need to change their things.

The people of Keqi need Han tea, iron pots, wooden bowls, and cotton cloth......

They need everything from the Han Chinese.

But they didn't have anything to change.

Suluk's clan learned to knit sweaters at the Shinkoku Mansion, but it's early summer and no one is going to buy a sweater. The sheep will only lose their hair in spring and summer, and they also have to collect wool and cashmere yarn to spin and weave clothes, which is a problem of how to price.

They have to sell their things cheaper and better than the Han people in order to sell them. Even so, the Han people are very reluctant to deal with them, they don't even understand the language, how can they trade?

How do you buy and sell? Han people manage Hu City, do Hu people have to pay taxes? Do Han Chinese have to pay taxes? Is the tax collected to the local government or to the national treasury? The people have no money, and they have always bartered, so how should they pay this tax?

Sell a sheep for a leg of lamb, or sell a sweater for a scarf?

Zuo Shaoqing has been arguing with them here for half a month, and now even the big tent of the people has been set up, and it has not been discussed.

Li Jun only listened to Zuo Shaoqing a few times, and his head was very dizzy. He admired Zuo Shaoqing's ability to slap the table and speak silently in the Chinese language.

But the lack of words does not prevent him from shaking his head.

The people just insisted that it was not good, no, no, the Han people bullied people, and the Han people were cunning.

They have an innate aversion to "collecting taxes".

Everything on the grassland is born and raised, where is there such a thing as collecting taxes?

"Can this be?" After a quarrel, Li Jun had a flash of inspiration and proposed: "At the beginning of the Hu market, it is better for the imperial court and the merchants who purchased the Hu people's goods to jointly evaluate the Hu people's goods, and then use this valuation to be guaranteed by the imperial court to find merchants who are willing to provide Hu people's goods for trading. In this way, even if the Qiang or other Hu people do not have the money to pay for the goods, they can buy what they want first. ”

"Goods such as horses are exactly what the Great Chu needs, and the imperial court can openly choose one or several of the merchants of the Great Chu to obtain the right to 'monopoly', and the taxes that the Hu people should pay in the trade of horses, cattle and sheep are paid by the monopoly merchants who obtain the bulk goods. On the one hand, this can prevent merchants from lowering prices for the Hu people, and on the other hand, the Hu people no longer need to pay taxes. ”

Let the merchants pay the taxes for the Hu people, and the merchants are naturally unwilling. However, in terms of pricing, Da Chu can lower the price of cattle, sheep and horses of the Qi people, and the merchants will be willing to pay as long as they calculate the accounts and find that even if they bear the commercial taxes of the Hu people, they are cheaper than those of Da Chu. In this way, the people do not have to averse to the matter of collecting taxes, and although it is included in the actual price, if they sell things quickly, they will not have much objection even if they find out.

As soon as Li Jun's words were spoken, Suluk's eyes lit up. He began to explain Li Jun's words in the Chinese language with the people. When the other people heard that the Han people were willing to give them a guarantee, find a merchant, and ask the merchant to help them pay their taxes, they all shouted that this method was good, so they used this method!

Zuo Shaoqing's brain was extremely flexible, and after a little thought, he knew what Li Jun's proposal meant. He thought for a moment, and then said to Suluk:

"The merchants of Da Chu are cunning, and we ourselves have a headache, if you trade on your own, you will inevitably be deceived. After that, the money that the merchants of Dachu have to pay for buying things from you will be begged for by the imperial court, and then the imperial court will help you find merchants who are willing to sell things to you cheaply. The Hu market is open regularly, and after buying what you want to buy, how about you take the rest of the money and the supplies you need from Dachu? ”

If the imperial court becomes a complete middleman, there can be a lot of control.

First of all, the household department and Honglu Temple can be used as intermediaries to select the merchants of Dachu, control the use of horses as a strategic material into Dachu, and keep the good horse breeds by Dachu. Horses are goods that everyone is fighting for, and if big merchants intervene, it is believed that it will be much faster than Hu people selling them to the common people one by one.

Merchants who want to obtain the right to "monopolize" horses, in order to win among their peers, will naturally lower their conditions, and even buy cow wool to win favor. After the merchant bought the Hu people's things, the money was handed over to Da Chu as a guarantee, and with Da Chu as a guarantee, the Hu people did not have to worry about the situation that the merchant had nowhere to recover his debts.

When Da Chu got the money, it was equivalent to controlling the Hu people in disguise. In order to prevent the money from selling cattle and sheep from being wasted, they would not do anything that harmed the interests of Dachu or harass the people.

In this way, the Hu people do not need to have their own money, and they do not have to worry about the backlog of goods, and Da Chu can control the materials purchased by the Hu people, and do not let them have the opportunity to obtain a large number of weapons and tools.

As a country, Dachu will also play a role in the credit and regulation of the two sides, as long as fairness can be guaranteed, at least for a few generations, there will be no turmoil among the Hu people who exchange markets with the Han people.

As for small transactions, they privately want to sell them to the people of Da Chu, and Da Chu doesn't have to stop them.

After discussing some details on both sides, the Qiang people said that they would ask the leaders of their respective tribes for instructions, and hoped that Hu people would also be represented in the institutions that managed the transactions in the Hu market.

Zuo Shaoqing Qi Xuan explained that at this time, it is necessary to start the Honglu Temple, the household department and the imperial court, and whether this method can be allowed to be used depends on the opinions of today's son.

For calculating gains and losses, how to profit in the mutual market, this is the specialty of the household department.

The Honglu Temple Mansion is responsible for the dispatch and management of the Hu City, and it is also necessary to make a count of the items that the Hu people in the surrounding areas can provide. Some of them are not needed by Da Chu, so they can only be sold by themselves, and cannot be used as hoarding materials.

None of this can be decided in a day or two.

The people who come here to negotiate are also ready to stay here for a long time.

Now it's just a Qianren, and when Fenzhou Hu City is operating well, mutual markets can be opened in Liangzhou, Youzhou, Yanzhou, and Yazhou in the south. At that time, ginseng and fur in the north, spices and gems in the west, and pearl fish and rice in the south can all be used as goods for the mutual market.

It is conceivable that the merchants of Dachu will rush to these things.

At that time, Honglu Temple will also become a yamen with weight in Dachu's speech, rather than the current tepid situation.

Qi Xuan, whose political ambition is "Honglu Temple", is burning with a raging fire in his heart, and his attitude towards Li Jun has become more and more gentle and amiable, which makes everyone in Honglu Temple envious, jealous and hateful.

Li Jun's "middleman" was inspired by his grandmother's "Monopoly".

He was very impressed by the role played by the "bank" in "Monopoly". It's a pity that there are no coins made of paper yet, otherwise the merchants would not have to bring silver money from all over the world to pay for the goods, and then transport them back to Beijing for thousands of miles.

Zuo Shaoqing planned to return to Beijing that night, and Li Jun also began to be called by Zuo Shaoqing like a donkey. He was left by Zuo Shaoqing in the residential area of the Liang people, and was specifically responsible for collecting the opinions of the Qi people on the mutual market, as well as understanding their thoughts. He went back to Lingyuan County every three days to report his progress to Zuo Shaoqing, and in his spare time, he learned the Chinese language from the people, and his life was very fulfilling.

The only thing I can't adapt to is the girl called "Douling", I don't know what is wrong with her, and she comes to him twice in three days for trouble.

“*（……&……&%##……&。”

(Tana said you're a big bargain, can you take me into town to buy something?) ）

Dou Ling looked at Li Jun with a helpless face and felt that teasing him was particularly interesting.

Everyone else would be happy to accompany her when they heard her invitation, but he was the only one with the expression of seeing a she-wolf.

Translator Wang, who was acting as an interpreter on the side, conveyed the words to Li Jun, and then squeezed his eyes at him.

"The boy is not shallow."

This girl is much hotter than the Han girl!

"It's really flawless to take on important responsibilities in □□......□" Li Jun saw that it was Douling again, and smiled bitterly in his heart.

Translator Wang passed Li Jun's words to Douling.

“&……&*…… ￥#！ (Talking to someone everywhere is also called being responsible?) ）

"Interpreter Wang, please tell her that chatting is also a very important task, which helps us understand the thoughts of the Karma people. What the Chinese and Han people need most today is communication. ”

Translator Wang had no choice but to communicate again.

'This kid, I don't want to enjoy this great blessing, I heard that the people are very arrogant, and they can like each other like this and that, this Li Jun still looks like a hairy boy, how can he not like women? Lao Wang, if he hadn't already married his mother-in-law...... Tsk, it's a pity, it's a pity."

“&*……&%￥……%？” (Are all Han men like you?) ）

"Translator Wang, please ask her, are all the girls of the Qianren people like this who invite others to travel together without knowing each other?"

“&……&……%&￥￥？” (Isn't that possible?) ）

"Translator Wang, please please tell her that Han women don't go out, and men ......and women don't kiss each other."

“……&%￥#￥%？” (But I didn't want to go skin-to-skin with you, I just wanted to go into the city for a walk)

"Translator Wang, please tell her that Han women are not allowed to walk side by side with men, and I am a Han man, so I have to ......"

"You can find a way to tell her yourself, I'm not here to help you fall in love." Wang Yiguan waved his hand again and again, and ran away as soon as he slipped through the smoke.

After walking far away, he turned back and shouted:

"Li Jun, this girl is the daughter of the largest tribe of the Qianren, and that leader has no son! You better treat her well, this is the responsibility of our Honglu Temple! ”

Li Jun couldn't say that he had a phobia of women, so he could only stomp his feet and look at the figure of Wang Yiguan running away.

"Hey, hey, hey! Translator Wang, you can't save you when you die! How can you run! When you come back, you go with her! Feed! Feed! Hey......"

Li Jun watched as Wang Yiguan disappeared.

Only Li Jun and Douling were left staring wide-eyed.

Douling saw that the middle-aged Han man had gone away, and only this Han man who could drink was left, and he was also happy in his heart.

She heard that this time the proposal not to let these aliens pay taxes to the Han people was also put forward by this Han person, and then Tana said that this Han people also helped them bargain in Beijing and bought a lot of things, so she had infinite curiosity and affection for him.

Although he is stubborn and timid Han and does not like her, he is still a good friend of the Qianren.

There is a saying among the people, "There is no best friend in this world who does not have fellowship." She believes that she will get along well with him and will definitely become good friends!

She admires the person who can bargain the most!

"Well, let's just think it's for this errand. Honglu Temple is also responsible for receiving foreign guests, and is friendly and friendly to foreign countries...... "Li Jun didn't know whether Lu Dao was convincing himself or cheering himself up, so he kept muttering quietly.

"Since Miss Douling wants to go to Lingyuan County to shop, she has to sacrifice her life to accompany the gentleman. It's just that you and I don't understand the language, so it's best to go to Tana and Lumo to accompany you. ”

Li Jun shook his head after thinking about it.

He speaks Chinese, how can this girl understand it?

“&…… ¥#塔娜&......&¥ Lummer. Li Jun said in the plain language he knew, "We, Tana, Lummer are going to find it."

Douling tilted his head and looked at Li Jun with a serious face.

“&……&*%￥……#……#？” (Am I guessing wrong, aren't you afraid of women?) You just get a rash when you touch me? Or was that time just an accident? ）

Dou Ling stretched out his finger and gently poked Li Jun's face.

The rash that Li Jun had just gone down was overwhelming again.

“……*&？ ……%…… ￥#！ ”

(Hey, if you really touch it, you'll become a monster!) ）

Li Jun looked at the fingers poked into his face in a daze, angry and anxious, and suddenly became angry, and fell straight down.

He's definitely having a fight with this woman!

Definitely stay away from her next time!

This is the most reluctant thought of Li Jun, who lost consciousness.

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Since then, Li Jun has lived such a life.

Douling: "Good morning! ”

Reach out and poke it.

Douling: "Good afternoon! ”

Reach out and poke it.

Douling: "See you again!" ”

Reach out and poke it.

Li Jun fell to the ground.
