Chapter 326: The Tibetan Merchant

If you don't control your emotions well, it is easy for those who fight to fight to turn into fights.

The Tibetan merchant cried out with his finger in his hand, his index finger bent at a strange angle, and this finger was probably useless.

The other two Tibetan merchants were silent, looking at Gu Qing with a frightened expression, and didn't dare to say a word more.

Han Jie stood aside with an innocent expression, looking at the excitement, as if what happened just now had nothing to do with him at all, and there were already many onlookers outside the inn, including the people of the city, and some foreign merchants, many people gathered outside the door and whispered.

Gu Qing was a little unable to get off the stage, after all, the big strategy of Qiuci City now is to attract investment and create a harmonious and safe business environment, and such a trouble at this moment will have an impact on the business environment and the reputation of Qiuci City.

To put it bluntly, it affects revenue.

So Gu Qing suddenly raised his voice to the people and businessmen who were watching outside: "I suspect that these merchants are spies sent by Tubo, you don't have to worry, this matter has nothing to do with you." ”

Gu Qing's prestige in Qiuzi City grew, and the onlookers and Hu Shang suddenly believed it, and they all showed their expressions.

"Han Jie, take these monkeys to the backyard of the inn, so that the onlookers outside will disperse." Gu Qing commanded.

The crowd was quickly dispersed, and the three Tibetan merchants were also half-dragged and half-dragged to the backyard.

Gu Qing sat on the stone bench in the backyard, Huangfu Sisi poured him a glass of wine, and then stood behind him, looking at the businessmen in front of him curiously.

Several Tibetan merchants knelt weakly in front of Gu Qing, the one with the broken index finger was still moaning intermittently, and the other two merchants looked angry and did not dare to speak.

Gu Qing drank a glass of wine and looked at them with a smile: "Today's incident is not a misunderstanding, you deserve to be beaten, please raise your hand if you agree with my words." ”

The three Tibetan merchants looked at him in astonishment, they understood the first half of Gu Qing's words, and they were very angry, but they were under the eaves, as for the "raise your hand" that was said later......

Han Jie, who had been standing quietly behind him, suddenly stepped forward with an arrow, kicked over a businessman with a slam kick, and said viciously: "Don't you understand what Master Hou said? Hands up! ”

The three of them immediately honestly raised their hands in a standard surrender posture.

Gu Qing glanced at Han Jie appreciatively, quiet as a dead pig, moving like a mad dog, this guy is so violent.

Huangfu Sisi suddenly sneered, and immediately turned his face to the side.

Gu Qing ignored her, and was very satisfied with the performance of the three Tubo businessmen in understanding current affairs, and spread out his hands and smiled: "Look, even you all agree that you deserve to be beaten, has this matter reached a consensus?" Walking out of this inn, if you talk nonsense to outsiders and say that our Anxi army is bullying, then you will be in big trouble......"

The three merchants nodded obediently.

The scope of truth is within the radius of the fist, and this is not a deception.

Within this radius, everything Gu Qing said was correct, and he could easily reach a consensus. If you leave this radius, can you still reach a consensus?

Yes, Gu Qing still has a sharpshooter battalion.

The matter was not a big deal, and the three Tibetan merchants felt that the generals in the front hall were too noisy when they were drinking, so they rushed into the front hall and scolded a few words without even seeing the people, and then were cleaned up by the generals.

After Gu Qing finished saying this, he could be regarded as giving the generals a good aftermath, and then waved his hand, intending to let them leave.

However, a Tibetan merchant looked indignant, and stopped talking, seeing that Gu Qing had no interest in communicating with them, the Tibetan merchant couldn't help but say, "We are not spies!" ”

It was said in Guanzhong dialect, and the tone was a little weird, but Gu Qing still understood, and said with a smile: "I know that you are not spies, and it is impossible for spies to be stupid enough to take the initiative to get beaten up, rest assured that you will do business in Qiuzi, and the government will not trouble you." ”

The Tibetan merchant said stiffly: "But this nobleman, you just told the people outside that we are spies, and if we go out of this door, we will be killed." ”

Gu Qing sighed, turned his head to Han Jie, and said, "Send a personal guard to explain to the crowd of onlookers outside, just say that the government has made a mistake and it is a misunderstanding." ”

Han Jie reluctantly agreed.

The Tibetan merchant hurriedly thanked him, and the merchant with his broken index finger also bent down.

"Thank you for your help, I haven't asked your noble name yet."

Gu Qing smiled: "My name is Gu Qing. ”

The three Tibetan merchants were stunned for a moment, and then they were shocked, and their expressions became more and more respectful: "But Gu Houye, the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu? ”

"That's right, Benqing is in Chang'an, and this is Anxi Fenqing." Beautiful

The Tibetan merchants spoke reluctantly, and naturally they couldn't understand the snack, but they still bowed respectfully, crossed their hands on their chests and saluted respectfully.

"The true god blesses the most brave and resourceful general from the Heavenly Khan Empire, Gu Hou Ye fought with Tubo, and his reputation shook the world, and I and other merchants from Tubo also heard of Hou Ye's prestige."

Gu Qing laughed, this sycophant shot directly, but it was very comfortable, mainly because the rhetorical techniques were used well.

I hadn't been patted for a long time, Gu Qing's mood suddenly became happy, and she pulled up her family routine with a pleasant face.

"What's your name? When did you come to Qiuzi City? ”

The Tibetan merchant who spoke was obviously more outgoing, and when he heard this, he said: "My name is Lazawang, they are my companions, we are from the city of Luoqi in Tibet, and we have been trading between Tibet and the Western Regions for many years, and this time we only arrived in Qiuci City yesterday. ”

Gu Qing sighed and said, "The last time the Tang Dynasty fought with Tubo, did it have any impact on your businessmen's trading?" ”

Lazawang smiled bitterly: "Of course there is an impact, since the start of the war, the Tubo army has blocked the border, the Kunlun Mountains and the Qilian Mountains have laid heavy troops, we came from Xiaobolu detour, and it took an extra month to come to Qiuzi City." ”

Gu Qing asked again: "Your Tubo is located on the plateau, and the products are quite barren, what kind of goods do merchants usually buy and sell?" ”

Lazawang said: "There are really not many products in Tibet, we mainly buy good things from outside and transport them back to Tibet, so as to earn money from the magnates and landlords of our country, such as silk and porcelain from the Tang Dynasty, gold and silver utensils from Dashi, cattle and sheep skins and fur from the Turkic tribes, and so on. ”

"You have to bring some products from Tibet to the Western Regions, right? Coming empty-handed is a bit of a waste of manpower and material resources. ”

Lazawang smiled bitterly: "The products of Tubo cannot be sold at a good price in the Western Regions, and most of them are ornaments carved from medicinal herbs and ox bones......

Saying that, Razawang felt a little faceless, so he added: "The decorations are all blessed by the Bodhisattva in the temple, and they are very effective." ”

Gu Qing said perfunctorily: "Ah, yes, the miracle, I already feel the miracle, so sharp." ”

Lazawang was overjoyed, and hurriedly untied an unrecognizable beast totem ornament carved from a cow bone from his waist, and held it to Gu Qing with both hands respectfully.

"The Bodhisattva blesses the Hou Ye and the Hou Wan generations, and the descendants are prosperous. This thing is many years ago in Jasa Temple Mingjiu Dorjee Buddha statue in front of the incense offering, I have been with me since I was a child with the talisman vajra object, I would like to dedicate to the Hou Ye. ”

Gu Qing was confused, what "Jasa Temple", what "Mingjiu Duoji" Buddha, he didn't understand what he was talking about at all, but he still took it with a smile and looked at the so-called "talisman vajra magic object" in his hand.

A small piece of beef bone, not light, covered with scratches and grease, in the jargon of the collecting world, this thing has a thick pulp, but the condition is slightly damaged, as for this so-called "magic object", maybe Gu Qinghuigen is not enough, and he has not realized its wisdom at all.

"Haha, thank you, you and I don't know each other, well, long live the unity of the people of all ethnic groups across the country." Gu Qing casually stuffed this magic object into his arms.

It was another snack, and Razawang didn't understand it at all.

Seeing that Gu Qing had accepted his talisman, Lazawang was very happy, and suddenly jumped in place, and then ...... actually danced, and while dancing, he sang foreign songs, singing and dancing.

The other two silent Tibetan merchants also followed Lazawang's rhythm, and the three of them stood in front of Gu Qing and danced together, making Gu Qing at a loss, not knowing how to respond to their enthusiasm.

Huangfu Sisi has opened an inn for many years, and he is used to seeing the different customs of various countries, so he smiled and explained in Gu Qing's ear: "Master Hou, they dance the dance of blessing distinguished friends, and the Tubo people are like this, they sing and dance when they are happy, they sing and dance when they are sad, and they also sing and dance when they make new friends." ”

Gu Qing squeezed out a smile and said softly: "They dance so ugly, like three pigs rolling in the mire, can you make them stop, I'm afraid I can't help but beat people......"

Huangfu Sisi sneered and said, "Hou Ye wait patiently, they are almost finished." ”

The corners of Gu Qing's mouth twitched, has this guy been to Ah San's Bollywood? When did singing and dancing without saying a word become a contagious disease?

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Gu Qing's patience to run out, and the three Tibetan merchants finally ended their singing and dancing, dancing red one by one, and even the merchant with his broken index finger didn't look so painful.

"You Tibetans are good...... Hehe, so enthusiastic, I'm very impressed. Gu Qingyan praised insincerely.

Lazawang crossed his hands and touched his chest, bowed and said, "Lord Hou's magnanimity and generosity are the most generous gifts for us Tubo people. ”

Gu Qing smiled and said, "You do have the talent to be a businessman, and every sentence is so good, I can't help but want to take care of your business, let's talk about it, what goods did you bring with you from Tubo this time?" ”

Lazawang snapped his fingers and said: "Most of the medicinal materials brought are plateau grown, and the most products in Tubo are only medicinal materials, such as Tianshan Snow Lotus, Hu Coptis chinensis, Gentian grass, Rhodiola rosea, etc., each of which has brought a lot of ......."

Gu Qing seemed to have a glimmer of inspiration in his mind, but the inspiration flashed away, and it was too late to grasp it.

So Gu Qing had no choice but to continue to ask, "Are the medicinal herbs naturally grown or are you planting them yourself?" ”

"Of course, it is naturally grown, and the Bodhisattva has given the most precious gift to Tibet......

Seeing Gu Qinghu staring at him suspiciously, Razawang quickly changed his words: "There are also those that are planted by themselves, some medicinal materials are too precious, given by the Bodhisattva, we must cherish it, plant more, and the Bodhisattva will not object......"
