Chapter 32: The Descendants of the Merchant

"Since receiving the guidance of the Dao Venerable Immortals, I have often thought to myself that people are in the world, and it is inevitable to experience some hardships and disasters. Liu Jixing also pretended to look at the scenery in the distance, with a deep and unfathomable look. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

There was the morning sun that had just been revealed. I only listened to it and then sighed softly and said: "But when the manpower is poor, not to mention that I have been stubborn since I was a child, I have no strengths, such as today, I have been blessed by the Great Han Kingdom, and I have been blessed with great gratitude, and I have the shame to ask the immortal to incarnate and live in the Great Han Kingdom for a long time to assist me in fulfilling my wish!" ā€

Fan Huzi almost feels a little fluttering like a fairy, and he is still very similar to this fairy! Sure enough! This young man still believes in himself! She was still a little confident in her ability to recognize people, but when she saw Liu Jixing, she was a little confused, because she couldn't see his fate from Liu Jixing at all. I only felt that Liu Jixing was like a mess of confusion, as if she felt that a treasure was deeply locked in the fog, she could feel it but couldn't touch it, her brows furrowed slightly.

If it were ordinary people who saw the expression of Fan Huzi, the immortal, they would definitely feel uneasy, because our immortal frowned. But our Emperor Liu Jixing said something that almost made Fan's beard fall off the stone.

I saw Liu Jixing say softly and respectfully: "Although the emperor has not slept for a long time, but if there is turmoil in various places today, I feel powerless and lonely!" And often blame myself for not yet getting married, I can leave the imperial vein for my Liu family, and now I am fortunate to have the immortal descend to the Han Dynasty, hoping that the immortal can incarnate a noble person to live in my palace, and accompany and assist me to create a great cause and save the common people. ā€

Hearing this bold naked words, everyone petrified on the spot. Xiao Yue and Changyang are now Liu Jixing's women, so they naturally know what Liu Jixing means, and naturally they didn't expect Liu Jixing to be so bold and unreasonable.

The two of them are the disciples of the land immortal Daozun Shi Zhenren, so they are naturally more sensitive and respectful to the immortals, otherwise they would not listen to the words of the Daozun immortals. Seeing that Emperor Liu Jixing couldn't help but look at each other so directly, but he looked at Fan Huzi with anxiety in his heart, although he was not very interested in Fan Huzi in his heart, but the awe of the gods in this era still made them nervous.

Liu Jixing naturally ignored the respect of the ancients for the gods, and all that came to mind was that this girl was too capable of pretending, and if Lao Tzu didn't slowly kill you, you wouldn't be considered a crossing boss.

As for what these people think, where can the gods control her, we are not afraid of thunder and thunder in the sky. Heavenly King Lao Tzu dares to give him a hammer now, not to mention that he is just so unreasonable to the so-called fairy who appears in the female body, but Liu Jixing knows that this Fan beard is a goddess stick.

If Xiao Yue and Chang Yang knew that Liu Jixing was thinking about it in their minds now, how to hold their beards and use various methods to fork and fork, the two of them would definitely vomit blood.

Wu Sihu, who has been guarding the driver on the side, is even more adoring of the five-body throw, oh my God! His Majesty our Emperor dares to speak like this to the gods of heaven and earth, cow! It's awesome! If there is idolatry, the emperor is my idol at this time!

Fan Huzi looked at Liu Jixing quietly, eager to fly down and slap Liu Jixing to death, but she always had a slight smile in her eyes, even if she was extremely angry with this shameless little genius in her heart, but she knew the identity she represented now.

Yang Jiong and Chen Hongjin both admired Liu Jixing, Fan Huzi thought about it, so he accepted this opportunity to get close to Liu Jixing, but he didn't expect Liu Jixing to be so virtuous, which also strengthened her confidence in controlling the overall situation. She only had a smile that didn't smile, because she saw Liu Jixing looking at her with a smile.

Liu Jixing didn't have a trace of obscenity in his eyes, and that smile was a kind of confidence and appreciation, because if it weren't for Fan Huzi's beautiful appearance, Liu Jixing felt that he didn't need to be verbose with this kind of goddess, so Liu Jixing looked at Fan Huzi quietly, and his expression made others seem to feel confident.

Fan Huzi chuckled in his heart, vaguely grabbed a trace of something else, and didn't know what he had done wrong, and was caught by Liu Jixing, the bastard, by the tail. The original slight advantage is nothing at the moment, if it weren't for Fan Huzi's years of cultivation and firmness, I'm afraid that he would have been at a loss at this moment.

She also looked at Liu Jixing quietly, and after trying her best to calm her mood, she said in a light tone: "I have one day from the nine heavens, stargazing occasionally, comprehending the heavenly opportunity, a cause and effect is planted, and you come down to the mortal world to assist the Son of Heaven in the Nether Realm, and according to the chance, you naturally want to live in the palace, but the Young Son of Heaven in the Nether Realm!" Now the opportunity for you and me has not yet come! ā€

Liu Jixing completely ignored her words, knowing that she was a goddess stick, he felt that she was as hard as a duck that had been cooked, and couldn't help but completely ignore the content of her words. gave her a dose of fierce medicine and said: "If you want to talk about immortals, I also have the enlightenment of Daozun immortals, although there are some differences between Daozun immortals and heavenly fairies, but it is enough in the mortal world here!" If you want to talk about the force around me, at this moment, Xia Qinghou, who is white-clothed and silver-armed, and Yang Jiong, a sick tiger and a mad lion, is enough to laugh at the rivers and lakes! Hehe! As for the ghost hand and the overlord sword, it is a general who is one against ten. If the fairy feels that I can be trusted, he can naturally move to the palace at any time, if he wants me to promise something or let my people approve of something! Then I'm sorry! Hehe, I don't need this kind of immortal yet! The fairy is welcome to enter the palace this time, you can also choose to go to Shuzhong or Zhou, I am absolutely happy to say goodbye! ā€

Everyone looked at Liu Jixing in amazement, this is a bit too big! Dare to talk to the gods like this, everyone is collectively petrified again!

Even Fan Huzi was also boldly reshaped by Liu Jixing, and she met an emperor who did not respect immortals for the first time. originally wanted to hurt Liu Jixing for a few words, but looking at Liu Jixing's confident eyes, she felt a little powerless for the first time. She didn't know what she had done wrong, or if this emperor Liu Jixing was stupid!

But look at Liu Jixing's actions at these times, where can he be a stupid person, if he is a stupid person, I am afraid that most people are stupid pigs! This guy with a confident face will only be a guy who is smarter than anyone else!

Fan Huzi knows a few words, she has fallen to the downside, but she can't show weakness! So he waved his sleeves and said: "If the opportunity does not come, it will affect the fortune of heaven!" Needless to say, the Young Son of Heaven in the Nether Realm will naturally look for an opportunity to meet you in order to complete the cycle of days! I will also do my best to assist you in completing the great cause! When the opportunity comes, I will come! I'm gone! With a wave of her sleeves, she fluttered up, riding the wind on the green leaves at the top of the trees!

Liu Jixing looked at Fan Huzi in the distance lightly, looked at Chaoxia quietly with a smile on his face, and said softly: "It's so good!" Look at how beautiful the horizon is! It's dawn! Let's go and eat porridge together! ā€

Leave three people looking at each other! Seeing Liu Jixing's speechless and shocked face, he followed helplessly!

In the first year of the sixteenth year of Dabao, the sixteenth day of the lunar month, Xingwangfu West City!

Today, the whole West Market is very lively! Because the imperial court, in the name of the three divisions and the city envoys, held an auction of Han specialty commodities in the West Market!

The people of Xingwangfu are no strangers to the word auction, this is a grand event launched by Emperor Liu Jixing!

When Emperor Liu Jixing was still the crown prince, he held an auction of treasures in his mansion in Xishi. Later, in order to make a lot of money, Emperor Liu Jixing successively held no less than 20 auctions.

But today's auction seems to be very different! The Spring Festival is coming soon, although the first emperor passed away this year, but the prince has done a lot of measures to benefit the people since he ascended the throne, which really makes the people of Xingwangfu very happy.

It turned out that at today's auction, not only Emperor Liu Jixing had to attend in person, but also invited merchants from various countries to the auction, and it was said that the entrance fee alone would have to pay 200 taels of silver. As a result, many businesses from various countries stopped and could only gather outside the large venue to wait for news.

Even if the threshold is so high, there is no shortage of big businessmen from all over the world in Xingwangfu, a place where merchants from all over the world gather!

Abbas, as the new envoy of the Great Han Kingdom, was appointed by Emperor Liu Jixing as the chief auctioneer of this auction, and now there are more than 500 merchants registered in his hands! Thinking about these entrance fees alone, many people feel the handiwork of the Han court!

Looking at the emperor Liu Jixing sitting on the main seat on the left side of the venue, Abbas was a little glad that he had chosen that day! Now his sister Anadai is Liu Jixing's concubine, although she has not been canonized as a concubine, but now everyone in Xingwangfu knows that Emperor Liu Jixing has a wife from Persia.

Although Abbas was a shrewd businessman, his talent in navigation and ship construction made him greatly appreciated by Liu Jixing, and he himself knew this deeply, so he was especially grateful to Liu Jixing. His success in the Dongfang Han made the family continue to send people to help him, and his status and prestige in the family chased the patriarch, and became the object of worship of most young people.

The family's help to Liu Jixing has now been classified as a secret party organization in the Han Kingdom, and Abbas himself has joined the secret party, even if Abbas is only as a city envoy, but he is now protected by the same specifications as the six new regimental training envoys of the Han Dynasty! This is something that Abbas is proud of!

This auction was handed over to Abbas, who has always been busy, and in Liu Jixing's words, this auction is no less than a key regional war between the two countries! So Liu Jixing wants to come to cheer in person! Cheer up Abbas, the god of wealth of the Great Han Kingdom.

Although the Liu dynasty claims to be a descendant of the Han family, everyone knows that Liu Anren, the ancestor of Gaozu Emperor Liu Yan, is a businessman. And there are half of the descendants of the Hu people, so Liu Jixing is actually a mixed-race descendant of a Hu businessman, and going back to four generations is a standard mixed-race child.

Looking at the prosperous business development of Xingwangfu, as a person who has traveled in later generations, Liu Jixing has become clearer and clearer, and he likes his current identity more and more. Strong national strength naturally needs and knows the importance of economic development, and Liu Jixing also deeply knows the importance of materials for Lingnan. If everything goes according to the trajectory of history, Liu Jixing should be a traitor and a mischievous little genius now, but will Liu Jixing allow himself to do this?

Even if the Southern Han Dynasty was destroyed by Zhao Kuangyin more than ten years later, the treasury of the Southern Han Dynasty and the successor Liu Gang himself were not short of money, but why did they destroy the country?

Liu Jixing thought that it must be that Liu Gang, the original owner of this body, was too greedy for money, and would rather burn his property by himself than give the soldiers and the people a way out, think about how anyone would be willing to give you his life! Liu Jixing naturally wouldn't do this, so since he grasped the power, he began to buy people's hearts.

Originally, the Jiedu envoys in various parts of the Great Han Kingdom were literati, and the military power was manipulated in the high-ranking positions in Beijing, and there was no real power in the hands of the generals and emperors, unlike the soldiers of other countries who were loyal to the Jiedu envoys in various places, and the soldiers were all private soldiers of the Jiedu envoys, and the soldiers of the Great Han Kingdom were actually still in the hands of the emperor, so that when Liu Jixing ascended the throne, everything was on track and under control.

After Abbas looked around and spoke a more fluent polite official to the guests at the venue, he made a general statement about the value of some of the things to be auctioned today, and also revealed the approximate auction method and the merchants in the venue.

Sure enough, it is worthy of this entrance fee, and the starting price of the cheapest thing is also 5,000 taels of silver! Everyone is not surprised by this price, because the things auctioned by the three divisions today are not one by one, but batches of goods!

Liu Jixing didn't mean to get up and speak, he sat on the left side and watched Abbas arrange, Abbas got Liu Jixing's signal, and there was no need to go over to ask for instructions, everything was arranged by himself. This also made the people in the field even more impressed with Abbas, believing in his rights in the Great Han Kingdom.

Abbas actually found a beautiful female partner, who was the famous singer Danxia Mountain in Xingwangfu. She originally had many fans in Xingwangfu, and her words were clear and attractive. As soon as the two of them sang and harmonized, they ordered the first batch of goods to be carried out, which was a batch of edible items, and each merchant had a brief description of the goods in his hand.

These goods include soy sauce, rice, dried fruits, brown sugar, white sugar, and wine, which were commonly used in later generations! They are all transformation specialties that Liu Jixing can handle.

Each merchant didn't hear Abbas say the beginning, but took Danxia Mountain to stand respectfully by Liu Jixing's side. Everyone was a little strange, so they saw Danxia Mountain's jade palm lightly struck, and after a while, they saw one by one attendants, carrying a square tray out. There were a few items of food on the tray, and there was a faint smell of it. These squires have a copy in front of everyone! The merchants looked at each other, not knowing Abbas. Danxia Mountain and the Emperor What does this mean!

Abbas stood up triumphantly and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is His Majesty the Emperor's order to let the chefs of the five most famous restaurants in the West Market Market take action and cook food for everyone together. And these delicacies are made with ingredients that are unique to our Han Kingdom! You can taste the food first, and then talk about the auction later! ā€

The seats in the venue are divided into separate spaces for two or three people, and the spacing is not more than one meter high, and there is no such thing as a private room, and the people sitting together are either acquaintances or partners. Of course, there is a small one in the middle, so that everyone can put things.

In the middle of the crowd, an old man in a silk robe and an extraordinary beard in a fifty-year-old brocade shirt tasted a snack. Looking at Hu Yuezhen, the respectful owner of Guanxiangju beside him, he pointed to the various small foods on the tray and whispered: "Is this really the case?" ā€

"How dare you deceive the second master! At this moment, our family is manipulating a spoonful in the official shed over there, and there is no restriction on the masters of our five families in the palace, let them operate in public in the market! It's just that people don't get close to each other after a dozen steps, for fear that too many people will squeeze over and affect the operation of these masters! Look at this tender warehouse, it looks like it is from the hands of our family to slaughter a spoonful, it is definitely not fake! Yue Zhen dares to guarantee that there is no one in Xingwang's Mansion yet, and serving this fish can surpass slaughtering a spoonful! Hu Yuezhen looked confident and careful!

"That's just as well! Since the last time I ate a spoonful of fish, the old man has felt tasteless about any fish he eats since he went back! The old man in brocade, who is called the second master, gently picked up the chopsticks, slice a piece of fish meat on the belly, and gently approached and sniffed it and opened his mouth to eat, but saw a few plates of dipping materials on the plate in front of him, so Yi Danxiashan introduced what he said on the side, and dipped the oil in the dish that was deeper than rice wine, and then slowly put it in his mouth!

"Hmm!" I only heard a low sound of surprise around me, and the old man in brocade who called the second master couldn't help but look to the side, and everyone looked surprised. The old man in brocade who called the second master motioned to Hu Yuezhen to try it too, and Hu Yuezhen also dipped the fish in front of him and tried the oil, his face was full of surprise.

He has been opening this Guanxiang residence in this prosperous Xingwang Mansion for almost 20 years, and he has long been a well-known figure in Xingwangfu. Because the dishes of Guanxiangju may be one of the best five restaurants in addition to the imperial kitchen in the palace, and the fish of Guanxiangju is second to none in Xingwangfu.

The fish is still made by slaughtering a spoonful of fish, but because of the taste after being stained with this oil, there is no miscellaneous taste at all, and it is fresher and sweeter, which is amazing!

Everyone tasted all the food on the plate almost at the same time, and in the end everyone didn't squeak and almost all looked at Abbas!

Liu Jixing looked at everyone quietly, did not let Abbas speak, nodded to Danxia Mountain and stood up by himself. The merchants present were really shaken, and some of them had seen the emperor at the big banquet in the palace.

Liu Jixing smiled slightly and said: "I like food since I was a child, and when I was free, I went into the palace to dabble in the ancient books of the past dynasties to find it, and sure enough, the emperor lived up to his wishes, I actually found a few secret recipes for concocting food in ancient times, and after continuous improvement experiments, I got these delicious production methods that you just tasted!" ā€

Few people present would believe Liu Jixing's nonsense, but they also knew that Liu Jixing was a second ancestor before he ascended the throne, and he secretly despised Liu Jixing in his heart, but there was still a voice of hypocritical praise and compliment.

People who understand think that they don't know that Liu Jixing has taken it again, and the achievements of which master in the palace are hanging on their heads! Although I despise Liu Jixing, I still feel good about these delicious foods!

"My country now has more than 70 states, but there are still many people who are not well fed and clothed, and I often can't sleep in the palace! Therefore, I can only keep spurring myself in my heart, how to let the people everywhere live a good life! But you should know that construction and development requires a lot of money, so I have to keep learning every day, hoping to make what I have learned useful, and now it seems that what I have learned is still useful! I'm really looking forward to seeing how well my people can live in the future! ā€

Listening to Liu Jixing's words, everyone in the audience had different expressions. Abbas Danxia Mountain and the others around him naturally complimented the emperor for his wisdom and martial arts, and there were no overflowing words in the field, of course, most people did not squeak! I was scolding Liu Jixing in my heart that he must have wanted to make money, and he said it so shamelessly.

Liu Jixing secretly scolded these people in his heart that he would not agree, and continued with a thick face: "You are all big businessmen, although these things are insignificant, but they are also unique in the world now!" Anyone of insight can bid as much as you like, and the highest bidder wins! As for the food you have just tasted, they are all from the famous chefs in the capital, because these chefs are all invited by Lord Abbas for personal face, hehe, in order not to let Lord Abbas pay out of his own pocket, the food you taste is only enough for one or two silver! Please pay at the master of ceremonies when you leave! ā€

Facing this young lord who had just ascended the throne, the envoys and businessmen of various countries were dumbfounded, looking at Liu Jixing's calculating appearance, which looked like an emperor! Everyone felt a little crying and laughing, this is the emperor! Even Danxia Mountain on the side also laughed secretly, he was simply a profiteer who was more treacherous than these people in the field.

But some people felt a different breath, and as for what it was, it was a little indescribable. Or no one has sensed anything yet, because the smiling Liu Jixing is like a harmless good person!

As for the goods that the imperial court put out in the name of the three divisions, and the envoys of the city personally held the auctioned goods, these shrewd merchants naturally knew how much of a sensation they would cause in various places, and how much they would change the lives of the people of the world. But businessmen are unprofitable and don't get up early, and no one wants to open their own mouths to let others get benefits, so no one takes the initiative to start shooting.

Abbas had already been appointed by Liu Jixing as the city envoy of the Han Dynasty's Xingwang Palace, and was also the main official in charge of this important auction. This is undoubtedly an honor, so he almost contacted many businesses in his own country early, as well as major businesses that have had business with him for many years, even if he shoots it himself, he has to make a good impression on Liu Jixing.

But as soon as he saw this situation that no one cared about, his face turned green, thinking that he would be out of the ocean at this exhibition, and he couldn't help but look at Danxia Mountain on the side.

Seeing that Liu Jixing's face was still calm, although Abbas didn't dare to speculate on Liu Jixing's heart, he was also anxious to look forward to Liu Jixing's methods.

Liu Jixing picked up the luminous glass in front of him with great interest, and gently tasted the wine he made, which was obviously better than the one in Tibet. Reminiscing about the elegance of the tasters of later generations, my mind seems to have returned to my own time, and I am not worried about this auction at all. These things of his own appeared in ancient times, no matter what era it was, it would cause a huge sensation, that is, without Abbas, a merchant-turned-city envoy, anyone would be a blockbuster.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Han Kingdom, Servant of Allah, Apdullah, pull the lamp to greet you sincerely! May Allah bless you! "Abbas's brother-in-law, a lantern from Abbas's hometown, stood up first.

Liu Jixing was not surprised, knowing that some of these people would definitely be unable to hold their breath, but when he heard his name, he still choked on a sip of wine and almost squirted out. I didn't expect it to be the foreigner who pulled the lantern so cooperatively.

But he still smiled happily at him, and waved his hand to signal him to speak: "Pull the lamp, what do you need, just say, the Great Han Kingdom is a hospitable country, my people are a hospitable nation, you have brought surprises to the people of the Great Han Kingdom, I thank you on behalf of the people of the Great Han Kingdom!" I will give you a 20% discount on the goods exported and the things here! Just talk to my city envoy Lord Abbas as much as you need! ā€

As soon as Liu Jixing's words were finished, the lantern was of course ecstatic, and Abbas was even more excited like a proud swan. The people next to him heard what Liu Jixing said clearly, and they couldn't help but regret it.

"O merciful and holy emperor of the Great Han Kingdom! Thou art the wisest Majesty in the world! Allah bless you! If you give me that delicious oil, the lantern will surely be shared with all the servants of Allah as quickly and as quickly as possible, and your name will be praised and respected by people for generations to come, just like Allah! Pulling the lamp, his face twitched excitedly, and his beard shook sincerely, he naturally knew the weight of Liu Jixing's words.

Liu Jixing's face twitched, this lantern is even more powerful than the person with the same sound in later generations! The benefits of this popularization of oil are undoubtedly incalculable, and he looked at the poor businessmen below with pity, and couldn't help but close his eyes slightly and take a deep breath. Then he replied lightly: "Yes!" In the future, I will only supply you with oil from overseas countries! And you'll get 20% more off than these people! Liu Jixing lightly pointed at the businessmen present.

"Thank Allah! Thank you, Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Han Kingdom, for your kindness and sage! "Pulling the lantern turned out to be a big gift to Liu Jixing!

The eyes of the merchants below are red, such a big, such high preferential and beneficial benefits, they will be willing to let these merchants do anything at this moment. I knew that Liu Jixing would be like this, who would wait so stupidly! As soon as I saw that the lantern came out and benefited, several businessmen squeezed out at the same time to bid!

"Wait! Wait! Abbas looked happy, watching his brother-in-law benefit first, it must be a great thing to go back, and he didn't care that the merchants who came together across the ocean looked at him pitifully. Now that so many people have come out, they can't help but stand up with their bellies, looking a little imposing, and politely led Danxia Mountain to the middle and said: "Come one by one, don't worry!" Everyone can sit down and bid, and don't be rude in front of the emperor! ā€

Liu Jixing waved his hand to stop it, looked inexplicable, stared at his businessman and said lightly: "These goods are all treasures that can only be produced by the Great Han Kingdom!" You are all famous rich people from all over the world, so as not to disappoint everyone! In the spirit of fairness, I decided to sell these goods in the form of auctions, and the highest price has the right to sell! Now Abbas, you are fully responsible! ā€
