Chapter 561: Liaodong Contact Point
Li Daozong nodded and said: "This is reasonable, the general has also thought about the problem of Anshi City, for Beisha City, try to defeat it in a battle, do not give Beisha City a chance to ask for help from Anshi City, and try to make arrangements with Liu Hongji before attacking Beisha City."

Xuan Shijing nodded and said no more.
Soon, Li Daozong's handwritten letter was sent out, and Liu Hongji's fleet came to Pingzhou City, no matter how it took two days, Xuan Shijing said to Li Daozong's branch, then took off his armor, put on the soft armor he brought, and went to Pingzhou City.
Today's Pingzhou City is still calm as usual, and it seems that there is no sense of the atmosphere that the war is coming, but think about it, the battlefield in Liaodong will only advance to Goguryeo, and will not affect Pingzhou, and once the war is over, the people of Pingzhou City will have an additional way to get rich.
Xuan Shijing needs to find the location of the Houfu Chamber of Commerce in Pingzhou to collect the materials sent here, the carriage of the Chamber of Commerce must be faster than the speed of the army marching, especially Xuan Shijing still sent things to Liaodong more than ten days in advance, how to calculate that the things should have arrived now.
Walking on the streets of Pingzhou City, even if it is just wandering around like this, it is also a kind of relaxation for Xuan Shijing, who has been on the march for several days, Xuan Shijing took out the letter handed to Xuan Shijing before leaving, the letter said that as long as Xuan Shijing arrived in Pingzhou City, found the Four Seas Inn, and showed the seal letter of Dongshan Hou, the shopkeeper of the inn would take him to the contact point of the Chamber of Commerce, and only the people at the contact point knew where the materials were hoarded.
Because the materials contained a lot of gunpowder, they could not be stored in ordinary places.
The Four Seas Inn is not a small inn in Pingzhou City, just ask someone to inquire, you will know where to look, walked for about a quarter of an hour, Xuan Shijing stood at the gate of the Four Seas Inn.
The little twenty in the inn was very enthusiastic, and when he saw Xuan Shijing standing outside and looking inside, he immediately greeted him.
"Guest officer, are you playing a sharp game or staying in a hotel?" The little second brother stood in front of Xuan Shijing, bowed down and asked with a smile on his face.
"I want to see your shopkeeper, and I will say that Chang'an is coming." Xuan Shijing said with a smile.
When the little second brother heard that Xuan Shijing said that he was from Chang'an, he didn't dare to delay, and immediately ran in, and Xuan Shijing also followed the little second brother into the Four Seas Inn.
After a while, the shopkeeper greeted him, walked up to Xuan Shijing with arched hands, looked at Xuan Shijing, and found that Xuan Shijing was not very old, and seemed to be the same age as the legendary head of the family, and his heart immediately understood.
"I don't know if the nobles are coming, I miss the distance, and I still hope that the nobles are in the sea." In the hall, the shopkeeper did not dare to blatantly reveal Xuan Shijing's identity, this time his own marquis came to Liaodong with troops.
"Find a place to talk." Xuan Shijing said.
"Yes, noble man, please." The shopkeeper invited Xuan Shijing to the second floor, and instructed Xiao Er to hurry up and prepare tea, pastries and food.
Entering the room, Xuan Shijing found a place to sit down, and the shopkeeper stood in front of Xuan Shijing, saluting respectfully.
"Subordinate Jiang Yuandao to see Hou Ye!" The shopkeeper's hand bowed to Xuan Shijing.
"Excuse me, this time I came here to let you take me to the contact point of the Hou Chamber of Commerce in Pingzhou City, there is a batch of things I asked the people of the Chamber of Commerce to transport to Liaodong, now I want to go over and take a look, this is the letter from the money pile, and the seal of Ben Hou, you can check it." Xuan Shijing took out the letter and his own seal from his bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper Gong stepped forward, took the letter and the seal letter with both hands, carefully checked it, and returned it to Xuan Shijing.
"Master Hou, let's go now, or do you finish eating here before you go?" The shopkeeper asked.
Xuan Shijing put away the seal letter and said to the shopkeeper: "Now, now after the inspection is completed, I will bring someone over to accept some in the evening, and the rest will still be stored in Pingzhou, and then the people from the Chamber of Commerce will wait for my news." ”
"Yes, Master Hou, then please come down with your subordinates." The shopkeeper said.
Xuan Shijing came out of the army this time and asked Li Daozong for leave for only two hours, and the rules in the army were strict, even Xuan Shijing was no exception.
The shopkeeper left the inn through the back door of the Four Seas Inn, and then turned into an alley, turning around, and then walked into an inconspicuous house.
"Master Hou, this is the contact point of our Chamber of Commerce in Pingzhou City, our Chamber of Commerce also has a façade in Pingzhou City, and the unloading of caravans outside is generally carried out in the storefront, and this is the place where the shopkeepers contact and live and rest." The shopkeeper explained to Xuan Shijing.
This place is low-key, according to the treatment of the shopkeeper of the Houfu Chamber of Commerce, even in Chang'an, there can be a good house, but now, whether it is Pingzhou City or Chang'an, these shopkeepers do not have the meaning of buying some high-profile houses, how to be low-key on weekdays.
It's no wonder that the money pile and these shopkeepers can spread the stall of the Chamber of Commerce in the Hou Mansion so big, and the business is doing so well, and after so many years, I haven't heard of any accidents in the shopkeeper.
Pushing open the gate of the courtyard, the shopkeeper invited Xuan Shijing into the courtyard.
The people in the courtyard didn't react when they saw the shopkeeper of the Four Seas Inn coming in with a young man, since it was brought by Jiang Yuandao personally, there was no problem.
"Ah Fang, call your captain out, Master Hou has arrived." Jiang Yuandao said to the young man in the courtyard.
As soon as the young man heard that it was the Hou Ye who had arrived, he hurriedly bowed to Xuan Shijing and entered the backyard.
"Master Hou, let's go to the hall first." Jiang Yuandao said.
"Yes." Xuan Shijing nodded.
Xuan Shijing walked into the hall with his front foot, and the captain from Jiang Yuandao on his back foot also walked into the hall.
"Liaodong caravan guards Chen Ce, see Hou Ye."
"There's no need to be so polite, Captain Chen, where is the stuff that was transported from Chang'an to Liaodong two months ago now?" Xuan Shijing asked.
"Back to Hou Ye, those things that were transported from Chang'an, the shopkeeper said that those things were more special, so let the small ones find a place to store them separately, so those things were stored outside the city by the small ones, but Hou Ye rest assured, now the warehouse outside the city is guarded by more than a dozen guards from our Chamber of Commerce, and they have been waiting for Hou Ye." Chen Ce said.
Xuan Shijing nodded and said: "Yes, since I have manpower, then I don't have to take someone out to go out alone, Captain Chen, please bring Ben Hou over now, let the people of the escort team bring the carriage, and transport a batch of supplies to my camp for the time being." ”
"Yes, Master Hou." Chen Ce responded.
