Two months later,

Didao City, Longxi County

A long convoy stopped outside the city gates.

An attendant dressed in coarse linen ran to a carriage and bowed his hand. "Family Master, Di Dao has arrived!"

With a "sand la", the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a chubby middle-aged man poked his head out.

After a long journey, his face was very vicissitudes.

The middle-aged man trembled and took out a small cloth bag from his arms.

With a gentle movement, he slowly opened the cloth bag, and stacks of square silk appeared in front of everyone.

He tuged the cloth bag back into his bosom and opened the silk.

Although he has been reading it for more than two months, he never gets tired of looking at this piece of silk full of words, and he can't wait to blend it with silk.

A total of one hundred and eighty-six gold.

Place of collection: Chang'an - Sanghong sheep.

Departure visa issuing agency: the right deputy general of the Nanzhong Army - Li Fu.

In the upper left corner of the content of the document, there are four big characters printed "Taiyuan Jun Yin".

At the bottom left of the document, there is a blank space, which is where Longxi was stamped at that time.

Tong Mufeng took a deep breath, patted his chest with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Help me get out of the car!"

"No!"

The house slave on the side hurriedly lay on the ground and supported it with his back.

Tong Mufeng stepped on the back of the house slave, and with the support of his entourage, he staggered down from the carriage.

He patted the dust off his body, straightened his hair in a bun, clutched the silk paper tightly, took small steps, and walked towards the gate of the city of Didaoxi with a worried heart.

Whether the businessman can turn over a little depends on this time!

The thought of the quality of the salt pulled up the carriage gave him confidence suddenly.

He had never seen the salt of the white flowers in his life!

He believes that Longxi is too guarded and will definitely take all the salt.

Led by his entourage, he came to the city gate.

More than thirty paces from the city gate, a row of crossbowmen raised their crossbows and shouted at the leader of the armor-clad generals, "Stop! The caravan that comes, show the name! ”

Tong Mufeng motioned to his entourage to stop and wait in place, and then he personally held the famous message, bent over, and walked forward.

Li Jiao raised his right hand, signaled his subordinates not to release the arrow, and then stood in place.

Tong Mufeng stepped forward with a smile and held the name with both hands, "General, this is a pariah name." ”

After Li Jiao took the name, Tong Mufeng held the silk in his hand again, waiting to read, "General, this is the handover document issued by Jiaodong County." ”

Li Jiao nodded slightly, looked at the name, and then grabbed the silk again and began to verify the contents of the two.

When he saw the visa agency and the familiar font, he suddenly smiled, "Li Fu, this guy still has a conscience, he went to Nanzhong Army, and he didn't forget about Longxi." ”

Li Jiao closed the name and returned it to Tong Mufeng, then kicked the silk document into his arms, looked at the long convoy, and said in a cold voice, "There are no prohibited items in this car?" ”

The prohibited items he mentioned are, of course, weapons, armor, etc.

"Don't worry, general, absolutely not." Tong Mufeng arched his hand, "Except for the self-defense equipment carried by domestic slaves and entourage, there are no other weapons." ”

"Even though I have Brother Li's paperwork, I still need to send someone to check it." Li Jiao waved his hand and motioned to a group of soldiers to immediately gate the city, "Let your subordinates all lay down their weapons and stand aside!" Someone who loses someone doesn't obey, don't blame me for the ruthlessness of my Longxi crossbow arrows! ”

Tong Mufeng wiped the sweat from his forehead, "No! ”

Then he quickly turned around and shouted, "Everyone lay down their weapons and stand aside!" ”

After doing all this, he honestly stood aside, bent over, clamped his legs, and waited for Li Jiao's orders.

After a stick of incense,

A captain came to report, "General, everything is normal. ”

Li Jiao squinted his eyes, "Have you checked it carefully?" This is the first batch of transport caravans to Longxi, if something goes wrong, not only General Li Guang will be investigated, but Chang'an, will also be investigated. ”

The captain insisted: "General rest assured, everything is safe." Any clues, subordinates did not let go. ”

"That's good!" Li Jiao walked aside, led his horse out, and ordered: "Let them put their weapons at the city gate before entering the city, and I will first go and explain to General Li Guang and let them wait at the military warehouse."

"No!"

After Tong Mufeng received the order, he smiled and waved his hand, signaling the caravan to follow.

……

Li Jiao rode quickly, used about half a stick of incense, and arrived at the mansion where Li Guang worked.

Before the person enters, the voice exhales first.

He shouted excitedly: "My lord, my lord, just now, the first caravan from Jiaodong has entered the city."

Li Guang raised his head, looked at his son who rushed in, and coughed, "It's noisy, what kind of system." ”

After blaming, he asked in a deep voice, "What did this caravan transport?"

"Five thousand stone salt, three thousand stone salted fish."

"Salt, there is no shortage in Longxi at present, you should go and see the quality of this batch of salt. If the quality of the salt is better than that of Longxi, then seal it up, and then let the clever subordinates contact a few Xiongnu tribes to sell the old salt to the Xiongnu and make some money. Although Taiyuan Jun is young, the method of business warfare makes me feel a sense of openness. At the beginning, even Zhou Yafu didn't let me feel this way. ”

"As for the salted fish...... The granary of Wulongxi is not satisfied, and I don't know how many days the salted fish can be stored. Li Guang groaned, weighed it, and ordered; In this way, let the fire head camp take a thousand stone of salted fish as a meal for the next meal. Although the fish is small, it is also meat, so that the soldiers can open the meat and adapt to the life of eating fish! ”

"My lord, the one who writes the receipt document needs to be too sealed by Longxi." Li Jiao smiled, and his eyes were on the seal on the desk.

Li Guangmeng waved his sleeves and said, "Go and put things into the warehouse first!" Don't be in a hurry to write the receipt paperwork, let's see the state of the soldier after eating the fish. In case after eating, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers drops significantly, it is better not to eat! ”

"Jiao'er, don't forget, this salted fish method is an expedient measure for Bai Mingzhe to protect himself. Soldiers' major events, not child's play! We must be cautious! ”

Li Jiao patted his forehead, suddenly realized, and arched his hand, "Your Excellency is wise!" Subordinates will do it! ”

"Wait a minute!" Li Guang stopped his son.

"Your Excellency?"

"Remember to send someone to bring some salt, I want to see the quality with my own eyes!"

"No!"

……

Two days later,

After Longxi returned the silk to Tong Mufeng, Tong Mufeng's hanging heart finally landed.

He took the original team from Longxi to the south and rushed to Chang'an, and now he needs to go to Chang'an to get money.
