Although a group of Hu chiefs from the Xihe Xingshe swept through the West Market and were extremely arrogant, they still did not belong to the main target group of this World Expo, and even the West Market, which had made such a big battle, did not belong to the main venue.

After all, the handicraft industry has become quite large-scale nowadays, and these industries are not as constrained by the weather as farming, except that some raw materials have a certain seasonality, which can be said to be constant. In order to maintain long-term and orderly development, there are also high requirements for the stability of business relations.

Although the Hu chiefs of the Xihe Xingshe swept the goods fiercely, they more or less belonged to the category of passionate consumption. Moreover, in view of the fact that the Xihe Xingshe itself is an armed organization, Xingtai will not deal with commercial and trade matters as soon as possible, and from the very beginning, the Xihe Xingshe has been classified as a supplier and maintain its true character as a thug.

The place used for negotiating bulk trade is still located in the main building of the Social Supervision Department of Yanshoufang. And unlike the West Market, which is just a random arrangement of shops along the street, the Social Supervision Department is divided into large and small courtyards, which are exquisitely arranged according to the customs of houses in various parts of the world, and the various products provided by the platform are arranged according to local conditions.

Of course, the products produced by the various factories in Xingtai are far more than daily utensils, and there are many other aspects, but most of them are related to the military state, so it is naturally impossible to provide them in large quantities and sell them in the market.

As for those who can come to the main venue, they are all invited by the Social Supervision Department to take the initiative to post. Of course, this invitation is not aimless, and one of the criteria is a high-roller who has saved more than 100,000 yuan in Baoli Bank for a long time.

Since the development of the flying money business, it has already been a very mature system, and of course, it has accumulated a large number of high-quality customers.

Therefore, this World Expo is essentially a rectification and restraint of the overly prosperous and chaotic business, bringing together businessmen from all parties with considerable capital to standardize the supply of goods.

Of course, not only businessmen from all over the world participated in the meeting, but also handicraft companies or private individuals around Chang'an who can provide high-quality products, and they were also invited. After all, although the handicraft industry has become quite large-scale, it is still in a stage of development, and it cannot fully meet the two major markets of foreign trade and domestic demand.

Previously, the Social Supervision Bureau solicited equipment from Baiye Xingshe, and this is precisely the purpose. It's just that because the World Expo was launched temporarily, the preparation and momentum were not long enough, the impact on the people was not deep enough, and many folk craftsmen had a kind of self-cherishing skills and did not want to leak the idea, so there were not many private suppliers who were really invited by the Social Supervision Administration.

Because the admission standard has not low requirements, the order in the venue of Yanshoufang is much more orderly than the lively and noisy West Market. The attendees are good and have a clearer purpose? Wandering around the various residential care homes arranged by the Social Supervisory Services Department? Pick the product you are interested in and ask questions about price and availability? We have our own dedicated person to answer the questions.

Shangguan Wan'er is wearing a beard with a lapel and narrow sleeves? And wore a white sable felt hat to cover his head full of green silk, strolling among the homes of the Social Supervision Department? He was followed by Liu Anzi and several servants.

The reason why she was invited by the Social Supervision Department to enter the main venue of the World Expo was naturally not because of her wealthy family. Is it not easy to live in Chang'an? In addition to your own consumption? was blackmailed by Li Shenzhi, who was also given money plague, and the family property shrank even more, and smashing pots and selling iron could not meet the standards of the Social Supervision Bureau to invite guests.

The invitation she was holding was from the East City Xiangxing Society, and she had previously made a living? The incense makes people enter the market and sell. With his prowess? All kinds of spices are quite sought after in the city, so they have attracted the attention of the East City Incense Society, and people have taken the initiative to invite them to join the Incense Club and become a co-fragrance master of the Incense Society.

The above official Wan'er personality was originally unwilling to have too much contact with the world? I just want to live quietly behind closed doors. It's a pity that the livelihood is urgent, plus after joining the incense club? Raw material procurement, incense sales, etc., can rely on the channels of the incense company? It is far more efficient than groping from scratch with a family of strangers.

The Xiangxing Society is a large shrine in Chang'an, almost second only to the Old Clothes Society, the Stonemason Society and the Weaving Society. So in this World Expo, it has also received great attention from the Social Supervision Administration? Dozens of invitations were sent out alone. Although Shangguan Wan'er has not been in the company for a long time? But his skills have been recognized and respected by the whole society? So I also got an invitation.

Of course, even if you get an invitation, there is no requirement to attend. The reason why I still came, in addition to the idle and boring Fangju, I also wanted to seriously feel the scenery of Chang'an City, and by the way, take a look at what tricks Li Shenzhi had done with the money plague.

While walking, suddenly there was the sound of drums and bamboo in a hall, accompanied by the singer singing: "Tile a brocade feast to open ......"

"It's His Royal Highness King Yong's old work "Zhezhi Song"! Lady, do you want to take a look? ”

Liu Anzi has been waiting for a long time in the interior, and he is naturally no stranger to His Royal Highness King Yong's old works, and when he heard the music, he couldn't help but want to join in the fun.

"Then go and have a look!"

After living in the square for a few months, Shangguan Wan'er's mentality and emotions have gradually calmed down, and she neither deliberately caters to the old people and things hidden deep in her heart, nor does she deliberately avoid them.

The direction from which the sound of singing and music came was a richly decorated hall, and the layout was similar to that of the home hall of the eunuchs in Beijing today.

After a tour, Shangguan Wan'er also had a good understanding of the layout intentions of the Social Supervision Bureau, and when she saw the beautifully furnished hall utensils and draperies, she felt a little funny in her heart, and also felt that Xingtai really did everything to collect money.

Of course, in the past few months, especially after joining the Xiangxing Society, she has learned more about the political measures of Xingtai's people's livelihood, and she no longer just secretly complains that Li Shenzhi recognizes money but does not recognize people, and the money plague is going crazy.

The division of Taiwan into Shaanxi has not only borne the heavy pressure of border affairs, but also the restoration of people's livelihood. Although Shangguan Wan'er has lived in the deep palace since she was a child, she knows little about the sufferings of the people, and she has no way to judge the difference between this life and the past life.

But just through a short exchange with the members of the Xiangxing Society, every time they talk about the Taiwan Rules, these people's admiration and admiration for His Royal Highness King Yong are overflowing. It is already an obvious fact that this kind of private and ordinary exchanges between the people does not tend to become inflammatory, and it is already an obvious fact that Taiwan politics is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Thinking back to the side of the meeting earlier, the man said before leaving that he could no longer do soft words and grind with each other, and then there was no news. Thinking about it occasionally, Shangguan Wan'er will also feel her affectionate resentment from time to time, but after living in the square for a long time, it is inevitable that a faint pride will be born in her heart.

Although they are now two worlds, they no longer have anything to do with each other, but after all, their love is not vulgar.

There is no shortage of time inside and outside the hall to watch the singing and dancing in the hall, Shangguan Wan'er and others were led into the empty seats in the side corridor when they entered the room, and when their eyes turned from the singing and dancing in the hall to the upper seats, their pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly.

There are a few people sitting at the upper table in the hall, and you can tell at a glance that they must be VIPs. And the person in the middle seat is a purple-robed nobleman, Shangguan Wan'er happens to know, it is Wu Youyi.

Wu Youyi appeared at the venue of the Social Supervision Department, which was not surprising to Guan Wan'er, Wu Youyi was in the Xingtai branch to lead the Social Supervision Department, which she understood when she joined the Xiangxing Society, and now she is sitting in the main seat, naturally because the World Expo was originally organized by the Social Supervision Department.

It's just that Wu Youyi in the main seat is talking sideways with a woman who is also dressed as a man at the opposite table, and there is even a bit of flattery in that smile, which inevitably makes Shangguan Wan'er a little curious.

"Who is the woman on the table, who actually accompanied King Lao Jian'an and Duke Pingyang in person?"

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but whisper and ask lightly while looking at it secretly.

Liu Anzi on the side took a few steps back after hearing this, made a little inquiry on the left side of the corridor, and then hurriedly returned and reported in a low voice: "That woman is Queen Xikang, a VIP of the Social Supervision Bureau, and it is said that several big deals have been made, and millions of dollars ......are involved in money and goods."

"Queen Xikang?"

Hearing this somewhat unfamiliar term, Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but still be puzzled.

Liu Anzi continued to explain: "It is the princess of the Eastern Regions who was presented by Tubo last year......

Not long ago, the imperial court officially canonized the princess of the Eastern Regions of Tibet as the queen of Xikang, and Shangguan Wan'er was busy making incense in Fangju, and she had neither the mood nor the channels to understand these changes in the situation at the upper level.

At this time, hearing Liu Anzi's introduction, she couldn't help but think of what Her Majesty the Queen Mother said about this Tubo princess in the Shangyang Palace of the Divine Capital in the old days, and when she looked at her again, her eyes were a little different and slightly sharp.

The princess of Tubo was dressed in a plain scholar round-necked robe, sitting in the banquet without any conspicuous ornaments to show her noble status, although her facial features were not delicate, but she was carved like a carving, handsome and handsome, her posture was straight and slender, and her gestures were quite majestic, but her eyes were flowing and her smile was revealing a bit of exotic women's flattery.

In the hall, Ye Ali, the queen of Xikang, was talking with Wu Youyi about some purchasing matters, and suddenly had a rather obvious sense of being peeped at in her heart, and turned her eyes to look at the hall at will, but she didn't see anything, and when she turned around, she saw Wu Youyi asking with a smile, smiling and shaking her head, and continuing to talk.

Shangguan Wan'er leaned slightly sideways behind the pillars, and there was no interest in watching the play in her heart, seeing that Liu Anzi and the others were still fascinated, she smiled and said: "You guys are watching the play here, I'll go to other places to visit, and we'll meet in the exhibition hall of the Xiangxing Society later." ”

"Huh? Don't you see it? Then I won't watch it either, it's all a repetition of the old tune, and it's better to ...... Yunshao Mansion in the palace."

Liu Anzi hurriedly said after hearing this, but while following Shangguan Wan'er out of the hall, his eyes were still firmly fixed on the hall.

As if in response to Liu Anzi's complaints, the music in the hall suddenly changed to a more cheerful and unrestrained turtle music, and there were plump and glamorous orchids entering the hall, dancing and singing: "Orchids look like flowers, when the spring breeze is smiling......"

The unrestrained music and dance suddenly made the atmosphere in the hall warmer, Liu Anzi glanced at it a few times, grabbed Shangguan Wan'er and walked out: "Lady, let's go, those orchids are really not ashamed, one by one they are bare their chests and shake their buttocks, they are fishy and coquettish, and they have to wash their eyes if they look at it more!" I don't know where the prodigal son makes such a thin play! ”

Hearing Liu Anzi's complaint, Shangguan Wan'er looked back at the hall, raised her hand and pointed and said with a smile: "Isn't that song card written, Jingxi University Hall, Sanyuan Li Tong ......"
