The efficiency of the No. 1 restaurant in Luoyang is extremely fast, and when an order was placed here, a few chefs were immediately sent over with a team of dozens of people to follow Dongzan.

Dongzan came in to report to the princess.

The princess has already changed into a set of clothes, and even her hairstyle has changed. She changed into a set of Tang costumes, Huang Luo silver mud skirt, five halo Luo silver mud shirts, and monofilament Luo red ground silver mud curtains.

Wearing a shirt, a skirt, a curtain, and a falling pony-style bun.

The princess's face was also washed off the ochre color of the dye, and even a closer look could see that her eyebrows had been trimmed, and her face was smeared with fat and lipstick.

Gardonzan could barely recognize it, and the princess Semaga in front of him who could ride a horse and shoot arrows was still alive, and this was a noble woman from Middle-earth.

"This is the Han clothes sent by the inner servants just sent by the Emperor of Great Qin, and also sent jewelry and rouge, etc., and there are palace people who change my clothes and makeup, I like it very much."

Dongzan suddenly had a feeling of heartbeat.

"The princess is so beautiful."

"Dongzan, how are you going?"

"I found the best restaurant in Luoyang North City, and ordered a 58-dish roast tail banquet, and also ordered a meal for the people in the mission, but the price was more expensive, a 58-dish roast tail banquet cost 580 yuan, and the mission's lunch was always served by one person."

The princess didn't pay much attention to it.

"We are from Tibet, we can't let the people of Middle-earth look down on us, take one hundred and twenty taels of gold from me and give it to the shopkeeper, the extra is considered a reward, don't do your best to do it."

A total of 880 taels of food money is only 110 taels of gold, but the princess gives 10 taels more, and she gives 80 taels as a reward, which is really bold enough.

Dongzan went to lure the shopkeeper over, but the shopkeeper did not come in person, but only sent a man to come, and invited a man from a big money bank to come and inspect the gold, and at the same time sent a few guards to escort the gold.

The gold was taken out, and the guy at the gold shop took a look, "This gold is a little miscellaneous in texture and shape, I have to take some time to check it, please wait." ”

Gold is not a circulating currency, and Great Qin also prohibits the flow of gold, silver, and copper out of the territory, but does not prohibit the inflow of gold, silver, and copper, but under normal circumstances, it is required that the envoys of the Hu Shang clan first go to the gold shop or money village to exchange for the currency of Great Qin, such as gold dragon coins, silver tiger coins, Kaiyuan copper coins, or silk silk.

Of course, the merchant is also more thinking about the customer, so the restaurant directly went to invite the money dealer to come over for inspection.

Gold ingots are not better than gold coins, Daqin's gold coins are minted and issued by the imperial court, the specified denomination of fineness, there is an anti-imitation relief design, and can be scratch-proof, as long as the gold coin is not damaged, it is directly traded at face value, and if there is damage, it can only be weighed, but the value is much lower than the face value.

However, the gold and silver brought by the Hu people, whether it was Persian gold coins or Roman gold coins, were all irregular gold coins, so they could not be calculated in denominations, but only weighed, and at the same time, they had to be checked for their fineness, which had to be valued according to the corresponding fineness.

The money dealer had a set of special tools to test the fineness of the gold by means of needles, cutting, melting, etc., and after a while, he gave his own results.

This weighing one hundred and twenty taels of gold can only be converted into one hundred and five gold dragon coins. Daqin's gold dragon coins are worth one tael each, but the gold content is actually only 88 percent.

"This batch of gold has a lot of impurities, and it is not pure enough." Dude said.

Now Dongzan can't help but be embarrassed again, just now he said that he would give an extra ten taels as a reward, and now the result is still five taels.

I have to make up more than five taels.

Dongzan said embarrassedly, "I'll make up ten taels." "The difference will be made up for if it is less than six taels.

The princess said, "Dongzan, take another twenty taels, and the more is still considered a reward, and my Saimaga is not a person who does not believe in his word." ”

The hotel guy smiled all of a sudden, twenty taels of Tibetan gold, according to the color just now, can be exchanged for seventeen and a half golden dragons.

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess, for the reward!"

The guy in the gold shop checked the twenty taels he had made up very seriously, and nodded after confirming that it was correct. The guy at the restaurant wrote a note to him, the one hundred and forty taels of gold were first collected by the gold shop, and then the gold shop paid one hundred and twenty-five and a half gold dragons to the restaurant.

This is also to abide by the imperial court's industry management system, merchants are not allowed to use non-gold dragons, silver and tigers other than gold and silver as direct transaction currency, violators will be punished severely, so they must first find a gold shop with exchange qualifications, and they will collect it first, and then exchange it into gold and silver coins or money to the restaurant.

Of course, the gold and silver shop will not run in vain, and at that time, the one hundred and twenty-five and a half golden dragons, they will still have to take a commission to get a commission.

The gold shop guy took the gold away, and the restaurant guy started to let the chef team start cooking in the kitchen.

"Dongzan, just now the emperor's chamberlain sent something and said that after the Shangyuan Festival, he would welcome me into the palace."

Dongzan nodded, "After the Shangyuan Festival, we will also return to Tibet, and the princess will be left alone in the Han Palace in the future." ”

"Princess, Zhangxiong's envoy arrived earlier than us, and I heard that they had reached an agreement with the Qin people to go from Qinghai Lake to Jimo, and then enter Zhangxiong, and the trade route to Tianzhu and Persia was fully opened. These damn elephant heroes, Li Mixia is really a coward. ”

The princess only shook her head, and she held a bronze mirror in her hand, looking at the somewhat strange self in the mirror.

"Don't care about Zhangxiong, now the Qin people are using troops in Xishan, and the tens of thousands of people of the Party Tuoba Department have been taken captive as slaves by the Qin people, and their land has also been granted a fief by the Qin Emperor.

"Dongzan, you must tell my father when you go back, the intention of the Qin people is obvious, they want to sweep away all the Qiang tribes, push Qin Xinjiang to the foot of the Great Snow Mountain, and no longer give us the opportunity to conquer the Qiang and collect their subordinates to seize their land. Tell my father that the Tibetans can't offend the Qin people openly, can't conflict with them again, can't fight with them, but we can't let the Qin people eat away at Zhuqiang step by step, we have to send people to contact Zhuqiang, so that they can unite against the Qin people. ”

"We don't dare to fight hard with the Qin people, can Zhuqiang do it?"

"Build forts and guard pillboxes, according to the dangers, don't take the initiative to fight a decisive battle with them, just guard those high mountains and dangerous valleys, guard the bunkers, and wait for the opportunity to attack and disturb their grain supplies, then it is difficult for the Qin people to quickly extinguish Zhuqiang, as long as they can't fight quickly, Zhuqiang will have a chance."

Along the way, this princess has become more and more familiar with the Qin people, and gradually knows the combat mode of the Qin army. The Qin people are good at fighting big battles, fighting head-on, fighting decisive battles, with a large number of generals and well-equipped, it is almost difficult to have their opponents.

But such a powerful Central Plains army has also suffered many defeats outside the pass in Liaodong, and the Goguryeo people who have suffered such losses are precisely because of the distance outside the pass and the inconvenience of the Qin people's supply, and then defend the mountain city and fight a defensive counterattack.

The princess believes that Tubo can't directly fight the Qin army head-on now, but it can't give up Zhuqiang, Tuyuhun has already given up, if Zhuqiang gives up again, then the Qin people will really go directly to the plateau, and then Tubo will be in danger of destroying the country at any time.

We have to find a way to resist the attack of the Qin people and keep Zhuqiang, and Tubo will have a buffer zone.

"The Han people have a word called cold lips and teeth, and they must not give up Zhuqiang, remember."
