Li Chengji watched from the car and sighed secretly. In the end, no matter what era it is, the common problem of a dog looking at people with low eyes cannot be changed.

Like this little guy, he is just a janitor, just because he saw a lot of dignitaries and dignitaries when he parked. So the mentality is inflated, and I think I am great. Therefore, when he saw Yarulda dressed as a farmer, he was full of disdain and contempt.

He whispered a few words to Rabi Lasi and asked him to help.

So just as Jarurda's face was flushed to the point of her neck and she was embarrassed, Rabi Lasi stepped forward and said loudly, "I bought his car!" ”。

It may be that Rabi Rasi's sudden intrusion catches people off guard! So the little guy was stunned, and didn't know how to speak for a while.

Seeing this, Rabi Lasi didn't even look at him, so he walked up to Yarulda and said, "You still have watermelons in this car, our lord wants them all." As he spoke, he took out two dinars, which were the money to buy a car and a watermelon.

The onlookers immediately let out an exclamation! But it was two dinars to buy a cart of watermelons, which was really a big loss.

"Ahh No way! No way! Yarulda looked at the two golden dinars, shook his head again and again, and said: "My car and watermelon, where are the two dinars." ”。

"Yes. Where is his broken car worth so much money, you don't deliberately put it in front of me! ", the little guy glanced at Rabi Lasi a few times and snorted coldly.

Rabi Lasi glared at him! The fierce eyes immediately made the little guy close his mouth timidly.

Then he said softly to Yarulda: "My lord ate your watermelon, it's big and sweet." It just happened that there were a lot of people in the house, so they all bought it, so that a large family in the house could try it. ”。

"But my car?" , Jaruda knew that Rabi Lasi was helping herself, but the car and watermelon were really not worth so much money. And he is loyal and dutiful, and even a little wooden. So in the bottom of my heart, I don't want to take advantage of Rabi Lasi.

Sinada stood next to her, a little annoyed by Arorda's reaction. After all, this watermelon was meant to be sold! Nowadays, someone buys it at a high price, but it is hard to find. So the grinding made her dissatisfied. urged a few times in a bad tone, eager to take the money and leave early.

In the end, being watched as a joke by so many people, I really don't have the face to stay.

"This watermelon has to be loaded in a car! Look at our car, it can't fit it. Therefore, I bought it with your car and saved the hassle. Rabi Rasi continued to persuade. used to be a low-level person, and I also experienced being looked down upon. So for Yarulda, a little more care.

"But ---," Jaruda hesitated.

Rabi Lasi didn't have time to spend here, so he put the two dinars in the palm of his hand and ordered the guards to send the watermelon back to the governor's palace first.

Jaruda couldn't help it, so he had to return to a dinar. And with the guards, he had to personally send the car and watermelons back to the house.

Rabi Rasi refused, and took the returned dinar. And by Yarulda, led by the escort, drove away.

Subsequently, under the cold gaze of the little guy, Li Chengji and they prepaid three Fahs. Park your car and get out of the parking lot.

When I came to the street, I saw men and women dressed in all kinds of clothes, rushing straight to the street in front of me. Persian, Turkic, and Huihe, who speak in various accents, also keep echoing in my ears.

In fact, Turkic and Huihe languages are the same language. It's just that the two are different due to different regions, so there are quite a few differences in pronunciation and vocabulary.

Because there are too many people, the guards who protect Li Chengji, Li Chengxue and Zhang Zhiqin. I had to slowly squeeze through the crowd under the leadership of Rabi Lasi and slowly move forward.

When passing the intersection with stone piers, the crowd instantly dispersed a lot. Li Chengji held Li Chengxue in his arms and looked at everything around him.

Although the Central Grand Bazaar was deliberately built under his direction, the commercial functional area. But due to his identity and official duties, he has never had the opportunity to come here to have a look.

So today, for the first time.

The current location is the gastronomic area of the Central Grand Bazaar. It is also close to the mosque and has a large number of believers. Therefore, the building near the water can attract them to spend here to the greatest extent.

A variety of signboards with regional characteristics are lined up on both sides of the street. The architectural style is also full of exotic customs.

There were Sogdians, Persians, Gusi, Qarluqs, Arabs, Jews. There are also Huihe people, Han people, and Khitan people. Even the Byzantines appeared.

They all run their own gourmet shops, which are not very spacious. Also, the shops in this place are not cheap! From the perspective of operating costs, it is naturally the best to save money.

When passing by a small bakery, Li Chengxue was attracted by the variety of breads and desserts in the glass window.

"Nicaean Bread Shop!" , Li Chengji muttered that the signboard was spelled bilingual in Greek and Persian, and then took Li Chengxue in.

Nine out of ten of these bakeries were owned by the Byzantines, because Nicaea was the city of the Byzantine Empire. And five years ago, in 1204. During the Fourth Crusade, the Venetians instigated the undisciplined Crusaders to storm Constantinople, tearing the Byzantine Empire apart.

Nicaea was captured by Theodore I, the son-in-law of the Byzantine Emperor Alexei III, and formed the Nicaean Empire. Along with this, there were two principalities of Epirus and Tribizon, founded on the Asian Peninsula.

The Latin Duchy established by the Latin Constantinoples in Western Europe is now at war with the three Duchies established by the Byzantines. At the same time, the Sultanate of Rum, established by the Seljuks on the eastern side of the principality, was also regained under the leadership of Kaihosru I, and the state rose to prominence.

Therefore, the entire Asian Peninsula was in flames. Many Byzantines were lost and enslaved by Syrians and Seljuks, or fled to Bulgaria, the Italian Peninsula and other European countries.

Byzantine slaves in the land of Persia have also prospered in recent years. In the city of Malu, there were thousands of Byzantine slaves. In the entire territory of the Khorasan Governor's Palace, there are more than 50,000 people.

As a result of the abolitionist decree imposed by the Governor's Palace, the Byzantine slaves who had been sold were abolished and regained their freedom. Then, according to some of the arrangements in the Governor's Palace, they either worked in agriculture or in workshops. It is also possible to stay in the home of the original employer and continue to do some work as a waiter, but as in the workshop, you must sign an employment contract.

In the case of weddings and funerals, neither the employer nor the workshop manager has the right to interfere. In addition, it is necessary to ensure their personal safety, and the employer is also responsible for the death or disability of the employee in the event of a major accident.

Such a policy attracted slaves from the surrounding lands to flee to Khorasan on a large scale. Among them, the Kipchaks are the most numerous.

They were brave and skilled in battle, and they were trained by the local lords' guards. So it has always been very popular with slave owners.

After becoming free men, many took the initiative to join the border army. It is also the current apologetics that do not expand their recruitment, so they can only retreat to the second.
