Jiannan Road, Songzhou, Anjung City.

This place has become the transfer hub of disaster relief materials in Jiannan Road, the gold and silver will go out, the official and civil caravans are endless, the yak and pony from Nanzhao and Tubo are crowded in the road, these livestock are loaded with a lot of sacks, there are highland barley red potatoes on the plateau, there are all kinds of mountain goods and dried vegetables of Nanzhao, but everything that can be full, all of them are collected at a high price, and there is everything.

Zhang Cambodia was in charge of Anjung City, once he was in power, he put the order to carry out, and the true meaning of having money to make the ghost grind was run to the extreme, set the rules, designated the purchase share, and did not determine the expenses, and the merchants who did not complete the share were immediately eliminated from the purchase list, arrested and criminalized, and beheaded with a rod at the lightest, and severely blamed for the extermination of the family, and completed the share, even if he was regarded as a wronged leader and profited from it, he did not care.

The materials soon piled up, the transport manpower was insufficient, Zhang Cambodia used a lot of money to mobilize the Qiang people in Xiqiang Prefecture and even the natives of Nanzhao, breaking the boundaries of administrative divisions and household registration, and issuing temporary passage documents in large quantities, so that all kinds of people in Jiannan Road were mixed, people came and went, and the teams passing through the state came and went, like a pot of boiling eight-treasure porridge.

"Shilang, the fourth batch of seventeen caravans returned, this time, only eight teams have completed their share" The governor of Songzhou respected this big official from the center as a god, "Listening to these merchants, it is becoming more and more difficult to prepare supplies in Tibet, and some tribal leaders are vigilant, counting the footsteps, there are five or six caravans that should have come back a long time ago, but they didn't see anyone, and they wanted to come...... It should have been an accident."

He said embarrassedly, Zhang Cambodia glanced at him, the corners of his mouth were cold, and there was no trace of fluctuation on his face, "People die for money, birds die for food, the road of business, you can make a fortune, and you can also bury your life, it is a big gamble, the court is in power, and you can't tolerate the love of children"

"Yes, yes, the squire taught yes" The governor of Songzhou responded in a loud voice, and his expression turned excited, "Squire, the lower officials have already taken stock of the materials, this batch is relatively small, but there are more than 6,000 yaks, more than 10,000 dwarf horses, with the grain and straw transported, piled up like a mountain, our affected people in Jiannan Province should be able to eat enough for the New Year."

Zhang Cambodia smiled, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, "Eat enough?" It's good to eat well, the people of the Heavenly Empire, they should be rich and prosperous."

The Governor of Songzhou hesitated and asked tentatively, "Squire, forgive your presumptuousness, at present, Jiannan Dao is rich in materials, and there are too many piles, which is not conducive to storage, but it is still necessary to make the caravan go back and forth to take risks?" ”

Zhang Cambodia turned around and dropped a hard sentence, "The gold and silver of this official will not stop for a day, the greed of merchants will not be extinguished for a day, and the adventure will not stop for a day."

The governor of Songzhou swallowed his saliva, retreated out of Zhang Cambodia's signing room, took a breath, and felt ashamed of himself for a while, he was also a court official, even if the local official was a grade higher than his own Songzhou governor, but the gap should not be so big.

Zhang Cambodia stood silently for a while, took out a map of the Tubo Plateau from his bosom, lifted the pen, and sketched a few more strokes on the map that was already densely lined, where the purchase quota was completed, where the place where the purchase quota was not completed, and where the merchants disappeared, drawing one area after another, according to the situation and frequency of completion, he could almost guess where was the stubborn Qinling family power, where was the sphere of influence of Zampu Chidusong, and where was the wavering place.

Yes, he knows that the success of the merchant's purchase is not only their responsibility, but more related to the place where they go, but he still firmly punishes those merchants who do not complete the purchase, the rules are great, and they should be executed.

Zhang Cambodia took the map, his sharp eyes swept along the lines, and a smile appeared on his stone-like cold face, "Quan Langjun, worthy of the military machine and ghost, the temple is unparalleled, and there are fewer and fewer diehards in Qinling...... The Tibetan pseudo-sinister and cunning, killing each other, for the gold and silver dead things one after another, but a bunch of fools, only pity the Qinling generation of heroes......"

At the same time, Yao Chong, another local official, set the place of residence in Hanzhou, so the Jiannan Provincial Observation Envoy and Yizhou Assassin Shixian Shijian had to temporarily move the official office to Hanzhou to cooperate with Yao Chong to dispatch Jiannan Road.

Yao Chong's task is to settle the affected people in various places, and at the same time distribute the materials transferred by Zhang Cambodia to various places, which is light, but it involves countless intrigues and yin and yang balances, local officials are naturally profit-oriented, they all want more materials, fewer victims, and many want to profit from it.

Fortunately, Yao Chong was good at this, and Xian Yu Shijian fully cooperated, and in the spring breeze and rain, he suppressed the governors of the state capitals to obey and obey, stretched out their hands to be greedy for ink, did not punish them, and made meritorious contributions to the crime, and acted vigorously and resolutely in response to the decree, and there was no hindrance.

Stealing half a day of leisure, Yao Chong took Xian Yu Shijian, climbed Lutang Mountain, passed the Jade Concubine Spring, saw the workshop of Jiannan Burning Spring, and went to the Jian Gut Villa of the Quan family to rest.

"The big officials, please use tea" The steward Quan You received them, arranged for the maid to arrange for refreshments, and the waiter stood aside to accompany them.

Yao Chong picked up the tea cup and took a sip quietly, "The tea in the mountains is extraordinary, it is sold by the gods, and there are too many fireworks and fireworks."

What Yao Shilang said was" Xian Yu Shijian didn't understand the true meaning of Yao Chong's words, and echoed with a smile.

Quan You bowed, "The big official praised it, the master realized the tea in the Sichuan Temple, so that the temple incense was prosperous, the old monks in the temple were grateful, and they sent tea to the villa every year, compared with the fried tea next to it, there was only one more mind."

Yao Chong smiled, quietly sipped tea, and said no more.

"Pull it, pull it," came the noisy sound of a boy in the courtyard, and several sturdy servants were pulling a basket of dirt, and a child stood in it, happily picking hawthorns from the low trees.

Quan You hurriedly confessed, Yao Chong waved his hand, but he seemed to be interested, "This official has time today, and he also meets the schoolchildren in the mountain dwelling, and looks at the edification of the envoys."

Xian Yu Shijian was confused, and he couldn't grasp the thoughts of this Yao Shilang, so he said a few words humbly, just watching.

Quan You couldn't shirk it, so he turned around and called a group of children to him.

There are high and low statures, and the age span is not small.

Yao Chong's eyes rounded, fixed on the tallest and strongest child, he was about ten years old, and he was dressed decently, staring at strangers, but he was not stage frightened, but there was a little green stunned between his eyebrows.

"What's your name?" Yao Chong asked gently.

"Peace be upon you," the child replied aloud.

"The hawthorn is picked, how should it be distributed?" Yao Chong didn't have the knowledge to take the school exam, so he asked a very strange question.

The boy tilted his head and said, "Take it and make hawthorn cake for its mother."

"Do you want some of your companions?" Yao Chong smiled, as if he was chatting.

"They're going to trade things for me," the boy said very well.

"What about them?" Yao Chong pointed at the servants, "They have made great efforts, if you don't have them to escort you, you won't be able to pick hawthorns."

"I don't give it to them, they are adults, and they are servants, they should make a living from this, they should contribute, if I don't go up, they will take it off, and they will still give it to me" The child was a little proud.

Yao Chong's smile gradually put away, and soon reappeared, "Good boy, the hawthorn is yours, go ahead"

A group of children laughed and ran away, Yao Chong's eyes were cold for a moment, and then shook his head meaninglessly.

The hawthorn is yours, but it cannot be given to you.
