Chapter 8 Matchmaking (1000 First Orders and Updates)

"I'm here again, Miss Zhang!"

Before the person arrived, the voice arrived first, compared with the song in front of Li Mu, Ergou's voice at this time seemed full of energy, full of confidence and confidence.

He is a tooth man in Chang'an West City, a famous person in the West City Bureau, not to mention how much money he makes, looking at businessmen from other places, he is still the kind of businessman who has no foundation at all, and he still has an arrogant energy.

And the people in the house changed their faces as the second dog entered the house. The bitter hatred is gone, the yin and yang weirdness is gone, and the scarred face who stood next to Zhang Tianai and just spoke for him also squeezed out a smile that he thought was kind, as if he was afraid of leaving a bad impression on Ergou.

If you want to talk about these leaders in the house, which one is not a murderer who has followed Zhang Tianai's father, Zhang Xun and Zhang Zhai, for many years. In a place like Longyou, every day is a day of licking blood from the knife edge, and in the hands of these people, without twenty lives, they will definitely not survive today. Take out any of them, and they are all countable characters. Now, when they come to Chang'an to sell furs, it is really difficult for them to be kind to a tooth and a good face.

But there is no way, with the Tang Dynasty pacifying the Turks, cut off the border troubles. Their smuggling business could not be done, and it became a thorn in the side of the Tang Dynasty, maybe when the imperial court would send troops to level their stockade, it was the time when people were panicking. As the owner of the village, Zhang Xun originally thought that he would continue the relationship with Li Ji and ask him to help make Zhangjiazhai turn bandits into soldiers and clear his name. But he didn't expect Li Ji to use a Tai Chi technique and ignore his stubble.

This incident made Zhang Xun lose face in front of the leaders under his hands. Zhang Xun also got angry because of this, became ill, and lay in bed humming all day long, unable to be a director.

Dazhai is young and strong, plus women and children, more than 2,000 people, can not be left alone for a day, and Zhang Xun has no son, only Zhang Tianai, a daughter. Although the leaders were unconvinced, they were even more dissatisfied with each other, and finally pushed Zhang Tianai to temporarily become the owner of the village.

The smuggling channels are gone, and the backlog of leather goods in the village is increasing, and it has reached the point where it can no longer be put on hold. Seeing that winter is coming, the fur of this village can not be exchanged for money, the grain and rice are less than a day, there is no money to buy, and the whole village is in a hurry. Zhang Tianai really had no choice, so he decided to take the leaders to Chang'an to sell furs. Relying on the relationship between Zhangjiazhai and the Mayi County Commander for many years, the Mayi County Commander took the risk and sent Zhang Tianai a road guide. As soon as Zhangjiazhai waited for the people, they formed a caravan, took one-third of the fur in the village, and came all the way from Mayi to Chang'an.

Although the people in Zhangjiazhai are all from horse bandits, the majesty of horse bandits on their bodies also has to be divided into places. After entering this Chang'an City, the people were dazzled by the prosperity of Chang'an, and after encountering walls everywhere in the West Market, these fierce-tempered horse bandits became more docile than the people. I just wanted not to cause disaster and not cause trouble, so I sold all the furs I brought, and bought some grain to go back to the village for the winter.

They dealt with Ergou yesterday and knew that he was just a tooth man, but even if Ergou was just a tooth man, he knew a lot of news that the leaders didn't know, and he couldn't be offended. Moreover, the horse bandits also have a rule, no matter how their own people argue, only the leader and the horse leader must be seen in front of outsiders. This simple truth is also one of the most important reasons why Zhangjiazhai can survive in the cracks and gain a foothold in Longyou to the present.

"Miss Zhang, I'm here to say hello to you." Ergou arched his hand and said with a smile: "Yesterday, when I helped you lease this yard, I heard a few gossip, and it seemed that I was worried about the sale of fur. Coincidentally, today I met a noble man who was about to buy tanned skins. People are talking, as long as the things are good, money is not a problem, pay in person! Do you think I have to say hello to you? ”

When the people in the room heard this, they all showed joy. Zhang Tianai hurriedly asked: "I don't know what you said about the nobleman, how much skin does he want?" Our skins are the best, and he will definitely be able to take a fancy to them! ”

When Ergou heard this, his eyes rolled, and he said ambiguously: "This nobleman, he is busy with affairs, and he handed over all the matters of buying skins to me." As for how much, people didn't say, even ten cars and eight cars might have to get it. As for the quality of the things, you naturally have to say that your things are good, but whether they are good or not......" Ergou cleared his throat for no reason and didn't say anything more. Zhang Tianai didn't react, and was about to ask, Lao Hu had already understood the meaning, took out a piece of silver from his arms, stuffed it into Ergou's hand with a smile, and said: "Big brother, our skin is indeed the best, don't you say?" ”

When the silver arrived, Ergou gently weighed it, and it was the same money, and he was happy in his heart, and immediately said: "Naturally, how can I come and find it?" I'll come over tomorrow morning, you prepare the samples, and I'll take you to your nobleman's house." The ugly words are ahead, I took this piece of silver, and I will try my best to help you say good things, but I can't guarantee whether people can match each other. If the deal fails, you can't complain, and the money won't be returned. ”

Lao Hu hurriedly said: "This money is for my brother to eat and drink, and it has nothing to do with anything else." Brother can help pull a line, I am already grateful. Whether it succeeds or not, it has nothing to do with the brothers, and if it does, there will be a reward. ”

"Well, my brother is an open man." Ergou smiled, and arched his hand to Zhang Tianai, and said, "Then it's decided, everyone, Miss Zhang, I'll see you early tomorrow morning." ”

Ergou turned around to leave, Lao Hu hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "Brother Ergou, can you tell me which noble person you are talking about, what is he going to buy so many tanned skins for?" ”

Hearing this, Ergou smiled, broke away from Lao Hu's hand, and said, "We are just tooth people, but we don't dare to ask about nobles." If you're so inquiring, we'll not dare to make your money. As he spoke, he took out the silver and handed it to Lao Hu: "You take back the silver, just treat it as if we haven't come!" ”

"What is this for?" Lao Hu was afraid of losing his business, so he quickly pushed the money back and said, "That's it, I won't ask, just wait." I hope that my brother will keep his word and don't fool us. ”

Ergou took the money back, snorted lightly through his nose, and said: "Let's be a tooth person, what we pay attention to is a letter, I know that you are from other places, and your heart is a little unsteady." You can go out and inquire about my second dog, what is the reputation of the West Market. Besides, our Ya people in the West City are all famous in the West City Bureau, if I deceive you, you can go to sue the official. ”

After speaking, the two dogs strode away. Lao Hu didn't come back until he was sent to the door, and as soon as he entered the door with one foot, someone complained: "Lao Hu, don't talk if you can't speak, this tooth man is kind enough to take care of business, what do you think of others?" ”

"I'm too lazy to tell you, we are new to the city, and we are not familiar with the place, who can believe everything? We even have three or four thousand skins and furs, which noble family can eat it with such a big appetite? ”

"And you're going to give him back the money?"

"Nonsense, can he do his best to help without giving money? What if it's true! ”

Seeing that he was about to quarrel again, Zhang Tianai stood up and said, "Don't care if it's true or not, let's take it seriously." Cut out samples from the goods they brought with them, and bring them tomorrow, and whoever chooses them is whoever, don't complain. Let's all go, rest early after cutting, and ...... tomorrow If you want to go tomorrow, you will go all together! ”

This arrangement was very fair, and no one had any objections, so they all went their separate ways. Zhang Tianai rubbed his swollen temples, and suddenly his father's words rang in his ears when he was leaving. I got up and went back to the bed, and opened the baggage I was carrying.

Inside the baggage is a complete tiger skin, and when hunting this tiger, the arrow is shot through the tiger's eye, so there is not a single broken place on this tiger skin, and it is a rare treasure. The three cars of tanned leather may not be as valuable as this tiger skin.

"Cao Guogong's Mansion ......" Zhang Tianai sighed and muttered: "Father, my daughter has been looking for him many times, he has no intention of helping, it has been so long, do you want your daughter to come to the door with her cheekiness to beg?" ”

The leaders were worried that Ergou was lying, and they didn't get a good night's sleep. When it was almost dawn, I squinted for a while. Unexpectedly, as soon as the sun rose, the second dog came to call the door. The leaders hurriedly got up, took their samples with them, and freed up an ox cart to pull them. Under the leadership of Ergou, he came to Anyifang with Zhang Tianaima.

Before he arrived at the Zhulu Hou Mansion, he met Feng Si at the corner of the street, and the two dogs hurriedly said hello, and the two talked a few words. It turned out that Feng Si had already withdrawn the money and was about to talk about the acquisition of the paper mill. Knowing that Li Mu had already gotten up, Ergou's heart was also relieved, he originally thought that he had come early and planned to wait at the door.

When the two were talking, they didn't carry anyone behind their backs, and Zhang Tianai and the leaders next to them naturally heard something. Zhang Tianai was closest and heard the most clearly. Zhulu Hou, Hou Ye, Iron Striker, White Lady...... Several unrelated words were linked, and somehow, Zhang Tianai's mind suddenly flashed the shadows of Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Mu.

Could it be them?

This time Zhang Tianai came to Chang'an, in addition to selling furs to buy grain and rice, and asking to see Li Ji again on the order of her father, catching up with Bai Qiaoqiao was also in her plan. Although she and Bai Qiaoqiao have not been together for a long time, the two get along very well and are like sisters. Dingxiang said goodbye, and the contact was broken, this time when she came to Chang'an, she planned to find Bai Qiaoqiao. When they parted that day, she knew that Li Mu and Bai Qiaoqiao were going to follow Li Ji's army to Chang'an, and it happened that she was also going to see Li Ji, and she had been thinking about finding an opportunity to inquire where Bai Qiaoqiao was.

Could it be them?
