Rou Jiamo has relied on the Dragon Tiger Pill over the years, accumulated a lot of wealth, and now has his branches in various cities in Persia, and the Dragon and Tiger Pill produced by the Han Empire, Rou Jiamo has almost half of it. Relying on his wealth, Roujama met several of Ardashir's younger brothers and provided them with exquisite Dragon and Tiger Pills for free. With the protection of these princes, Śrīgamo was like a fish in water, and he could almost walk sideways in Persia.

Thinking about the source of drinking water, in order to ensure the supply of Dragon and Tiger Pill, Rou Jiamo spared no effort to have a very good relationship with Liu Ye. Liu Ye divided the Dragon Tiger Pill into several grades, and the price gap widened, so that with the efforts of Rou Jiamo, the Dragon Tiger Pill entered the homes of ordinary people. At the beginning of Ardashir's rebellion, the military discipline was strict and he won successive victories. The credit of Rou Jiamo is not small, it is because of Rou Jiamo's efforts that the soldiers of Vologis VI generally smoked the Dragon Tiger Pill, resulting in low combat effectiveness and almost all the loss of land. With the expansion of Ardashir's territory, the quality of the soldiers began to be uneven, and the army gradually began to smoke the Dragon and Tiger Pill.

As the saying goes: When the gun goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold. In this era of alternation between the old and the new, the richest ones are, of course, the generals who lead the troops, followed by the soldiers who take the sheep by the hand and make money with their backhands. The soldiers with bulging pockets soon fell in love with the fragrance of the Dragon Tiger Pill, and this trend began to prevail.

Rou Jiamo heard that the boss of the Western Regions had changed, and he was a young man, and he lamented the money he spent on Liu Ye, but the transfer of officials was a common thing, and it was the same in Persia, so he had to go out in person, carry a large amount of money, and re-count. In Persia, the names of the princes were revealed, and which one dared to strike against him; Entering Guishuang, he pulled up Liu Ye's banner, Liu Changshi's name, no one in the Han army knew it, and no one knew it, so Rou Jiamo successfully arrived in the Western Regions.

Zhuge Liang had a thorough understanding of the big merchants in foreign lands, and warmly welcomed Rou Jiamo's arrival, and after Rou Jiamo left several carts of gold coins, nearly 100 carts full of Dragon and Tiger Dan returned to Persia. When I came to Maracanda, I didn't want to meet an old acquaintance, Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang were waiting at the city gate.

Rou Jiamo traveled all the way, knowing that Liu Ye's status was very high, and after seeing it, he immediately gave Liu Ye a big hug and said loudly: "Lord Changshi, I miss me, I didn't expect to meet you here, do you have something to ask me for?" ”

Liu Ye said: "Old friend, you guessed it, I really have something to ask you." ”

Shaking his fat bearded face, Gyalma said, "I am a merchant, but I am also a Persian, and I will not do anything that is harmful to us Persia. ”

Liu Ye said: "Old friend, where do you want to go?" The two countries are fighting each other, and they want to fight against each other in a dignified manner, how can I take advantage of you? ”

Rou Jiamo said, "That's good. Say, old friend, for the sake of our many years of friendship, I will definitely help you. ”

Liu Ye said: "A nephew in my hometown, learning to do business, has a little goods in his hand, wants to sell in Persia, I don't know if my old friend can take care of it?" ”

Rou Jiamo said: "I should do something big, don't worry, old friend, with me, keep your nephew safe." ”

Liu Ye said: "Then thank you old friend, there is a car of wine here, which should be a little bit of my heart for my old friend." Liu Wei, come here, I've met my old friend. ”

Jiang Wei walked over, hugged his fist at Rou Jiamo and said, "Please take care of you along the way." ”

Rou Jiamo saw that Jiang Wei was tall and burly, and his body was strong, and he said with a questioning face: "Old friend, your nephew, doesn't he look like a businessman?" ”

Liu Ye said: "I won't tell you, my nephew used to be a soldier, unfortunately his leg was broken, and he couldn't go to the battlefield anymore, so he learned to do business." You take a few steps and let my old friend see it. ”

Jiang Wei limped a few steps, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, and Liu Ye hurriedly asked, "Is your thigh hurting again?" ”

Jiang Wei said: "Uncle clan, the wound is still not good. It hurts terribly when I walk. ”

Liu Ye said: "I prepared the gold sore medicine for you, go to Persia and talk less, and listen to my friends." ”

Rou Jiamo saw that Jiang Wei was really injured, put his mind at ease, and entered Marakanda City with Liu Ye and laughing.

Early the next morning, Rou Jiamo said to Jiang Wei: "Your uncle and I are old friends, you can also call me uncle." Though your goods are not many, but now that the two countries are at war, you and your retinue have put on our Persian clothes, bowed their heads all the way, and did not speak. Your wine, I'll take care of it for you. ”

Jiang Wei hurriedly nodded yes.

Gyalma left the city of Mulu and rushed to Nissa, preparing to take the route of northern Persia. Outside Mulu City, the Persian army was all over the sky, people were shouting and horses, and there were Persian soldiers guarding the road crossings. Rou Jiamo came to the Persian soldiers without care, handed over the road guide, and said loudly: "I am Rou Jiamo, I bought the Dragon and Tiger Pill from the Western Regions and came back. ”

None of the soldiers knew the name of Rou Jiamo, so they hurriedly opened the barricade and said with a smile: "Mr. Rou Jiamo, can we have our Dragon Tiger Pill?" ”

Rougamo scolded: "You stupid dog, when I see Prince Ardar, I will not be able to do without the benefits of you rabbit cubs." ”

When the soldier heard Rougamo mention the prince, Ardar was the commander-in-chief of the troops this time, nodded and said, "The prince's tent is outside the city of Nisa, you can go quickly." ”

Jiang Wei sat comfortably in Rou Jiamo's sedan chair, his face covered with a sun-shading scarf, seemingly careless, but his ears had already been erected, and he remembered the conversation between Rou Jiamo and the soldiers one by one.

Rou Jiamo went all the way, came to the outside of Nissa, stopped the caravan, carefully selected hundreds of boxes of Dragon Tiger Pills, twenty jars of fine wine, and Shi Shiran came to find Prince Ardar.

When Aldar saw Rou Jiamo, he laughed and came to a bear hug, and then said, "At present, we are at war with the Han Kingdom, and the Han army has not embarrassed you, right?" ”

Rou Jiamo said: "I am a businessman, I do not interfere in national affairs, besides, on the Han side, I spend a lot of gold and silver every year. ”

Aldar said: "Old friend, do you know the situation of the Han army stationed? ”

Rou Jiamo hurriedly shook his huge head with a good face, "Your Royal Highness, I am a businessman, I only do my business, you fight, I will not help anyone." Besides, the camp of the Han army is not accessible to us outsiders, and if you ask me, it is like asking a blind or deaf person. ”

Aldar laughed: "Get out, you cunning old fox, next time you come, remember to get more wine, the wine of the Han Kingdom is much better than wine." ”

Rou Jiamo agreed, and walked out of the barracks in a hurry, unaware that Jiang Wei and the others had already seen the Persian camp.

After passing through the Hundred Prison Gates, we came to Ecbatana, where the base camp of Jogamo had been moved to the capital Ctesiphon. Jiang Wei had already heard that Vologis VI's men and horses were trapped in the Armenian region, so he said to Roujiamo: "Uncle Roujiamo, thank you for taking care of you all the way. I don't have a lot of goods, so I won't go to Ctesiphon, and I'll sell them here in Ecbatana. When I have saved up enough money, like you, I will take hundreds of carts of fine wine and go to Ctesiphon. ”

Rou Jiamo did not doubt him, and said with a smile: "I think you are a very smart kid, and along the way, you have learned Persian dialect well. Well, I also have a branch in Ecbatana, if there's anything going on, just go to the branch and they'll let me know soon. ”

Jiang Wei thanked Rou Jiamo again and parted ways with him.

Vologis's 100,000 horses were huddled in Armenia, and food was a problem, and outside Ardashir, Ardashir's 200,000-strong army was eyeing him and would attack him at any time. In the city of Artashat, Vologis VI frowned, since the infighting with his younger brother Aldaban, the national strength declined, although he worked hard, killed his younger brother, and regained the land, but after the melee, the people's livelihood withered, and the originally prosperous Persian Empire has gradually sunset. The hateful Ardashir, the descendant of this damned priest, has rebelled, he and his father have been in operation in Stahel for too long, and my troops are no match for him. Now there are only 100,000 loyal to me, and no more than 500,000 people, how can I compete with him?

After Jiang Wei and Rou Jiamo separated, they pushed the cart loaded with fine wine to a secluded place, opened the mud seal, took out the weapons hidden inside, and thirty people dressed in wide Persian clothes rode towards the Armenian region. When he came to the edge of Armenia, he saw a dense joint camp from afar, so he ducked and looked for a gap between the barracks.

A group of Persian troops surrounded him, and the leader of the army shouted loudly: "Who are you? How dare you snoop on the barracks? ”

Jiang Wei motioned to his subordinates to be calm, and said loudly in Persian: "We are the people of Roujiamo, and we are about to rush to the city of Albil, but we didn't expect to get lost in the desert. ”

When the general heard that it was Rygamo, he did not embarrass them, but said in a loud voice, "The city of Albil is in the west, and you have taken the wrong path, how did you come to the north?" ”

Jiang Wei said: "Thank you for the general's guidance, if you arrive in Albil City, I will invite you to drink." Now I am the proprietor of the Grand Merchant of Jogamo in Albil City. ”

The general was surprised and delighted, and said with a smile: "You are so young, you have become a great treasurer, amazing, amazing." It's getting dark, so let's hurry. ”

Jiang Wei made a look, thirty people ran west towards the sunset, and when they couldn't see the figure of the Persian soldiers, they reined in the war horse, Jiang Wei said: "We will break through tonight, as long as we enter Armenia, there will be a way to see Vologis." ”

It was getting dark, and the thirty men were well fed and drunk, cleaned up neatly, and wrapped their horses with hooves, and quietly marched north. The target of the thirty men was not very obvious, and occasionally the Persian scouts passed by, and the thirty men had already fallen down and disguised. There was no danger along the way, and when I was about to pass through the Persian camp, hundreds of people suddenly stood up in the darkness ahead. The horse was frightened, and the law let out a long neigh.
