After accompanying the emperor to watch the excitement on the city tower for nearly an hour, the emperor drove back to the palace to rest, while Chen Xu rode to Qinghe Shopping Mall under the escort of a group of guards.

Now the entire east gate of Xianyang City to the Keju Square on the south bank of the Wei River is simply overcrowded within seven or eight miles, crowded with people one after another, it is not very convenient to take a carriage, these days Chen Xu is riding a horse, as for the square to visit the market can only walk, thousands of stalls are densely packed together, forming a criss-crossing more than ten streets, in order to maintain the safety of shoppers and the order of the market, no large livestock is allowed to enter, this is Chen Xu's order, so not only he must abide by it, The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty must abide by it.

Therefore, after riding a horse to the edge of the square, Chen Xu threw the horse to the guards to take care of, and then swaggered through the dense stalls to the commercial building under the escort of a group of guards.

In the last period of this market, the goods brought by the Hu merchants were basically sold out, so these Hu merchants all turned into shopaholics, holding gold, silver, jewelry and Daqin coins sold throughout the market, and the Keju Commercial Plaza, which represents the top commercial complex in Daqin, has naturally become the main shopping target of these Hu merchants, and all the shops in the building are their first choice for shopping.

Silk, porcelain, tea, glass, enamel, hardware knives, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, linen clothes, mirror mahjong, grape wine, and even oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, as long as there are things that are not available in the Western Regions, these merchants in the Western Regions are the targets of these Western Regions merchants rushing to buy.

It took them three months from the snow-covered cold winter to Xianyang, and the goods they brought were all exchanged for Daqin's goods after they were sold, as long as these things were brought back, they would definitely become sought-after goods in the Western Regions, not to mention that there were merchants from Dawan Daxia Kangju in the west, and the Western Regions would become a transit hub that could not be bypassed by Daqin and the Western countries in the future, and these exquisite commodities of Daqin would definitely arouse great interest from the Western countries.

Businessmen have the keen eye of businessmen, and all businessmen all over the world have the same sense of smell, and there is not much difference in the idea and feeling of making money.

But there are so many good things in Daqin that almost all goods can't be chosen, and they are too expensive.

A large piece of warm natural Hetian jade, thousands of miles to transport to Daqin, jade merchants only offer a hundred and ten yuan a catty, dozens of catties of jade can only be sold for a few thousand dollars, but a porcelain bowl is hundreds of dollars, a bottle of wine is the cheapest is also hundreds of dollars, the palm size of the small mirror is also one or two hundred dollars, and because these things are hot goods, the price has been high, every time a new product is on the shelves before the bargaining is swishing between the countless Hu merchants who squeezed through the door to snatch up.

Under such circumstances, all the merchants of the Western Regions felt that they were about to cry out of poverty.

A dazzling array of good things just can't be bought, and these are still the cheapest daily necessities, if it's the thing called Qinghe shopping mall, you will vomit blood and retreat when you go in to see it, although you don't know the Arabic numerals on the label, but the long circle behind is based on the understanding of the past few days, we know that most of them can't afford it, and one more circle will increase the price tenfold, so many goods are tens of thousands of prices.

But as the most luxurious brand in Daqin, the reputation of Qinghe Store is now resounding throughout Daqin, so the people who enter and leave Qinghe Mall are all wearing fancy clothes and pot-bellied, and many Hu merchant envoys and even monarchs are admiring it, and it is reasonable that they can't afford to go in and see the excitement.

Chen Xu greeted the people who were visiting the market with a smile all the way, and it took half an hour to squeeze to the door of his shopping mall.

"Greetings to Master Hou!" Outside the door, a group of flowery welcome maids dressed in colorful ribbons greeted their boss.

"Haha, no courtesy, no courtesy, good life to take care of guests!" Chen Xu nodded with a smile and walked into the store.

"Qinghe Hou is here!"

Knowing that Chen Xu was coming, all the people who were shopping on the first floor of the mall came up to greet him with surprise and excitement.

"Haha! Hello everyone, thank you for visiting Benhou's mall, no need to be polite! Chen Xu bowed his hand to the crowd with a kind smile.

Among these people, in addition to the wealthy merchants of the Great Qin, there are also some Hu merchants from the Western Regions, and these people even knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Chen Xu, because they already knew that the young man with a kind smile in front of the Yushu Linfeng in front of them was the left minister of the Great Qin Empire today, and he was a great official whose status was second only to the Great Qin Emperor, and he heard that he would also call the wind and rain to attract thunder and lightning, and he was the immortal disciple who protected the Great Qin, and this Keju field that seemed to be a miracle in the world was designed and built by him. And the glass, porcelain, tea, red wine, and even all kinds of delicacies that I want to eat every day are all invented and made by this immortal disciple in front of me, so for Chen Xu, these Hu merchants and envoys are a little more respectful and afraid than they are to Emperor Daqin.

After some greetings, many people knew Chen Xu's temperament, and they all continued to shop in the mall after rubbing a hot face, and several Hu merchant envoys and monarchs followed after glancing at each other.

"Master Hou!" An envoy called Chen Xu in a broken Central Plains dialect.

"How many of you have something to look for?" Chen Xu walked to the staircase leading to the second floor, stopped, turned around and asked.

"Master Hou, I have admired you for a long time, and I hope to be able to visit Master Hou alone......" It was still the envoy who opened his mouth and bit his tongue to say the Central Plains dialect that sounded very uncomfortable, but he still understood it, as for the rest of the group, it is estimated that they will not be able to speak in the Central Plains, and can only look at Chen Xu with little stars in their eyes.

"It's okay, since you met today, you will go to the third floor with Ben Hou to drink tea!" Chen Xu waved his hand and took the lead to go up the stairs, and a group of people were overjoyed, all of them cautiously followed behind Chen Xu's buttocks, and they didn't dare to come out.

When I arrived on the third floor, I entered the tea restaurant, and asked the steward to help arrange a quiet window seat, bathed in the warm breeze of mid-spring, condescendingly looking at the riverside garden that had been repaired on the embankment, witnessing the dense stalls and bustling crowds on both sides of the entire riverbank and Keju Square, as well as the mountains of ships and wharves piled up on the Wei River.

This trip to Daqin completely opened their horizons, and this horizon also completely struck their little arrogance at once.

They never imagined that there would be such a huge city as Xianyang in the world, which is so prosperous that it is simply indescribable.

The name of Qin, the Western Regions is not unheard of, because the Qin State has bordered the Western Regions since ancient times, and has been fighting with the dog Rong Qiang Hu for hundreds of years, and the reputation of Great Qin has already spread to tens of thousands of miles away, even if the transportation is extremely inconvenient, but not only the Western Regions, but even the countries of Dawan, Kangju and Daxia are poisonous, they all know that there is a super powerful country in the East, but it is difficult to travel between east and west, and everything is just heard through the mouths of merchants and migrants who come and go to Yue's Wusun and other countries, and it is also very vague, I don't know how powerful, prosperous and rich the Qin State really is.

The year before last, Great Qin suddenly conquered the Yue Clan, and a large number of Yue Clan people fled to Wusun and even the Western Regions, bringing with them the prestige of the Great Qin Army that could not be resisted by tigers and wolves.

Last year, Daqin dispatched a large army again, and in just half a month, he crushed and killed Wusun, a powerful tribe with a population of hundreds of thousands, collapsed in an instant under Daqin's strong bow and crossbow and iron hooves, and the king of Wusun and more than ten tribal leaders were killed.

And the next two months, is the most terrifying time for the countries of the Western Regions, the 20,000 army of Daqin plus more than 20,000 servant troops of the Yueshi Wusun, rushed like a bamboo, swept the desert north and south of dozens of tribes and states, the army everywhere, the banner that covered the sky and the sun and the black pressure suppressed the mighty army no one dared to be, more than 40 countries could only bow down and almost dare not have half the courage to resist.

At the moment, the several monarchs who followed Chen Xu up to drink tea even remembered that the Great Qin army swept by the galloping horses like a black tide, and then they were all frightened, and they even ran to kneel several miles away and beg for submission.

The order forbade the neat and majestic army, the neat armor, the snow-bright Changge sabers, the sharp bows and crossbows, and the delicate stirrup saddles, even in the scorching summer sun and the scorching desert, this majestic army was instantly like a god descending, directly shocking the Western Regions to the point of wanting to be in the mountains.

After receiving the emperor's order to trade with the Western Regions, Jiang Hu, Li Xin and others began to convene the monarchs and leaders of the Western Regions to discuss the matter from the beginning of last year, and almost forcibly ordered the departments to prepare sufficient goods and wait for them to be transported to Xianyang after the beginning of spring.

Although these tribes and states had to do it under a forcible order, and finally came to Daqin after months of arduous trekking, the moment they saw Xianyang City, the only remaining trace of illusion and dissatisfaction collapsed like an avalanche.

Great Qin's strength and wealth were a situation they could never have dreamed of.

Even the most common concrete roads, they couldn't imagine how they were built.

This is not the existence of an era at all, Great Qin, more like a legendary country, it seems that it should not exist in the same world.

Soon after taking her seat, the maid brought fragrant tea in fine porcelain.

These tea leaves are new teas that have just been delivered by Shui's Tea House not long ago.

"Everyone, please!" Chen Xu picked up the teacup and tasted it gently, the hot tea was full of mouth, and the tangy aroma instantly made him forget the hustle and bustle of the outside world.

A group of Hu merchant envoys and monarchs who were invited to drink tea also carefully held this exquisite teacup with both hands, and then learned to take a sip gently, and they were instantly intoxicated.

They haven't drunk less tea recently, there is tea in the Xianyang Quyuan Miscellaneous House, but most of them use the cheapest old tea, but after tasting the tea, this kind of thing is said to be made of a magical leaf to make their souls throb, not only the effect of refreshing the heart, but also the whole body is very relaxed after drinking.

After drinking a cup of tea, Chen Xu put down the teacup and said with a smile: "What are you looking for me today?" ”

"Master Hou, Daqin is prosperous and strong, let me wait for an eye-opener, I really want to bring more goods from Daqin back, so I specially waited in your business house for a few days, and today I am fortunate to be here for Hou Ye, so I want to beg Hou Ye for help!" It was the envoy who spoke.

"Well, the Western Regions have now subjugated Great Qin, and you will be regarded as my Great Qin people in the future, as the left minister of Great Qin, this Marquis naturally wants to be treated equally with the merchants of the Central Plains, what do you want me to help you with?" Chen Xu nodded slightly.

"Master Hou, the money I brought from afar is not enough, and the goods we sell are not valuable, so I want to ask Lord Hou and His Majesty to be accommodating, and give me some exquisite silk, porcelain, glass enamel and steel knives on credit to bring back and sell them......"

"And ...... There are also tea leaves and ...... and wine......" Another merchant stammered and added in a more lame Chinese dialect.

"How much cargo can you bring back?" Chen Xu did not answer positively.

As soon as he heard Chen Xu's words, the envoy suddenly trembled excitedly, crossed his fingers and counted for a long time and said: "Master Hou, we are from Loulan, Shanshan, and the end, Jingjue and other countries, although there are few people in the country, but they are all perennial walking in the north and south of the desert, and even have been to Dawan and Daxia, no matter how many goods we can guarantee to be able to sell, this time there are hundreds of camels brought by me Jingjue alone, at least thousands of pieces of porcelain and glass and other goods can be transported back, as long as Hou Ye is willing to help speak, wait until the autumn goods are sold, I will definitely send you a lot of gold and jade as a thank you! ”

"Thank you for not having to, the trade between the Central Plains and the Western Regions was originally the meaning of Benhou, you must know that your goods in the Western Regions are not even looked down upon by the people of Daqin!"

"Yes, yes, what Hou Ye said is true!" The elite envoy nodded repeatedly.

"But the merchant has the rules of the merchant, Benhou can promise to help you with this, but remember to come to repay the money after the autumn, otherwise you will lose your reputation, not only will it affect the business reputation of your merchants in the Western Regions, but it will also make the people of the Central Plains resentful of your tribe in the Western Regions, if you annoy the emperor because of this matter, you will be imprisoned!"

"Hou Ye rest assured, as long as we get the goods, we will return as soon as possible, and we will definitely come to Xianyang again in autumn, these exquisite porcelain, silk and glass, transported back, will be able to sell soon......"

"By the way, Ben Hou told you a good news in advance, Emperor Fang Cai has decided to open two large fairs in early spring and early March and mid-autumn and August every year, just like now, and this year is the first market, the preparation is a little hasty, I don't know about this grand event of commodity exchange in other counties and counties of Daqin, and when it comes to autumn, the scale will inevitably expand several times, and you will have to step up the preparation of more Western Regions specialties after you go back, especially spices such as pepper, medicinal herbs, musk and leather goods, etc., You can even buy some goods from Dawan and Daxia and other places to transport them, and you will definitely make a lot of money when the time comes...... Also, you can also widely publicize that the Great Qin Academy of Sciences has purchased a large number of meteorites, and one or two meteorites can be exchanged for at least one piece of porcelain......"

"Master Hou, are you serious?" The Elite Envoy almost jumped in surprise.

"Ben Hou is the left minister of Great Qin, how can he deceive you, wait, this news will be announced in the court tomorrow, rest assured!"

"Good, good, great!" After the elite envoy turned his head to a group of Hu merchant envoys and the monarch, everyone was excited, stood up and saluted Chen Xu to thank him, and Chen Xu didn't understand a word of the messy nonsense.

"Ben Hou has full authority to entrust you to communicate with the merchants of the Western Regions, count how many people still want to buy the goods of the Central Plains on credit, while the market is not over, tomorrow I will invite you to watch the play at the Qinghe Theater in the city, and at the same time will invite some merchants of Daqin to participate, when the time comes, Ben Hou will thread the needle from it, you wait for yourself and Daqin merchants to discuss the goods purchased on credit, as for the problem of insufficient payment, Ben Hou will help to tell clearly, sign the credit purchase contract, and wait until the autumn when you come to repay the ......money."

After the envoy excitedly muttered with a group of companions again, the faces of the group of people suddenly turned red with excitement, and several of the merchants couldn't help but start wiping their tears.
