Chapter 579: Gift-giving, no official and no greed
The shopkeeper went down to arrange, in Jian'an City for so many years, the officials here in Jian'an City often greeted each other, if not, how could the business be done smoothly under the protection of these people, although it was a little more expensive in terms of money, but over the years, the relationship between the two has been established very well, and the shopkeeper personally brought things to go, and it would not make them suspicious.

The shopkeeper took the two men and went to the government office of Anshi City. After waiting outside for a while, someone inside came out to spread the word and let the shopkeeper in.
The shopkeeper left the two men outside the door, walked into the mansion by himself, and when he arrived at the palace hall, he saw the general of Jian'an City.
That's right, it's a general, and the people in charge of Jian'an City are generally military generals, because of the sea, facing Silla and Baekje, as well as the Tang Dynasty, military generals are much more reassuring than civilian officials, and the internal affairs of Jian'an City are taken care of by generals or civilian officials in the army, and the taxes paid are directly into the general's treasury.
So in this way, the people in Jian'an City are also a fat difference, and they can make people squeeze their heads to grab the fat difference.
Such a position, installed, is naturally Quangai Suwen's person, long ago, the contradiction between Quangai Suwen and Gao Jianwu was already irreconcilable, no emperor would let a minister be on his couch, not to mention, this minister's talent is no worse than himself.
On the surface, Quangai Suwen, who is empty and wrong, is secretly making his own arrangements at night, such as placing people everywhere or something, and Jian'an City is also a place that Quangai Suwen fancies.
Linhai, developed commerce and trade, high taxes, this shows that Jian'an City must be quite rich in the future, with money, there is capital to raise soldiers, there is capital to confront Gao Jianwu.
With these capitals, Quangae Suwen won in this infighting in Goguryeo.
"General Han, long time no see." The shopkeeper greeted the general warmly.
The shopkeeper in private sent things to General Han, and this General Han also knew that this shopkeeper was one of the few wealthy businessmen in Jian'an City, so he was also very eager for him.
The person who can bring more wealth to himself has to treat others with a straight face, he is not one of those officials in the Tang Dynasty, one by one hypocritical to death.
"Oh, shopkeeper Lin, long time no see, rare guest." General Han was also very enthusiastic about the arrival of Shopkeeper Lin.
When this shopkeeper comes, how can he come empty-handed, and he must have something to get his hands on.
"General Han, it's not like I'm going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I came here today, in fact, there is something to discuss with General Han." The shopkeeper smiled.
"It's easy to say, shopkeeper, sit down and talk slowly." General Han said to the shopkeeper, and at the same time instructed the attendants around him to hurry up and serve tea to the shopkeeper.
"Then let's get straight to the point?" The shopkeeper looked at General Han.
"Shopkeeper Lin, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
"In the past few days, the guards of the caravan have been coming back from outside, and I think the general also knows, and I accidentally learned that our sailors in Jian'an City are fighting with the Tang Dynasty?" Shopkeeper Lin directly threw the problem to General Han who was sitting at the top, and it was enough to pick up the words, and the next right to speak should be handed over to this general, and he could adapt himself.
"This ......" Hearing the shopkeeper's words, General Han began to hesitate, this matter can be regarded as a secret for the army, but this person's guards have seen it with their own eyes, is this still a secret?
For a while, this General Han really didn't know how to talk about this 'old friend', people came to inquire about this, I'm afraid it was also for the Chamber of Commerce under his command, this battle has started, how can the Chamber of Commerce be able to do business in this area with peace of mind, this point, General Han himself made up for it in his heart, and he understands it.
"Shopkeeper Lin, we have been friends for so many years, some things, the general will not hide from the shopkeeper, the sailor did fight with the sailor of the Tang Dynasty at sea, but the shopkeeper don't have to worry, let's build Ancheng, it is as stable as an iron bucket, the army of the Tang Dynasty can't fight here, even if Liaodong really fights, we still have Anshi City and Beisha City in front of us, and the shopkeeper's business will definitely not be affected." General Han said to Shopkeeper Lin.
This is also to fool people again, the war has started, how can Jian'an City not be affected, but this General Han thought, such a big fortune is mainly gone, how much less taxes in Jian'an City, and how many things will he take in private, and if he withdraws from Jian'an City, the rest of the merchants will definitely ask around for news, and he himself will send people out of the city to investigate, isn't Jian'an City a mess, the merchants are gone, the taxes are less, the taxes are less, how to raise soldiers, can't raise soldiers, How to deal with the army that has not yet reached Liaodong in the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty raised troops to conquer Liaodong, this Han general knew that the army had already reached the halfway point, and it was impossible for Quangai Suwen not to receive the news, and after receiving the news, he would also send someone to pass it down. Pyongyang has become a struggle on that side, but on the Liaodong side, whether it is Gao Jianwu's party or Quangai Suwen's party, they all have to work together to resist the invasion of the Tang Dynasty.
"I see, but there is a brave person like the general in Jian'an City, there is definitely no need to worry." Shopkeeper Lin said.
Thousands of clothes, sycophants are not worn, words are picked up to listen to the other, so that the other party is happy, why not?
"Hahahaha, the shopkeeper said yes." General Han laughed.
"But these days, I see that the soldiers defending the city at the head of our Jian'an City are also working hard, so I prepared some small gifts for you, General Han, and the soldiers in the city." Shopkeeper Lin said.
"Oh? The shopkeeper has a heart, I don't know what kind of things the shopkeeper has prepared? The degree of use in the military camp is very strict, and the general has to test it. General Han stroked his beard and said.
"Of course, the things are given outside the palace, and the general can have people pass orders to bring them in." The shopkeeper smiled.
"Good, good." General Han said three good words in a row, and then ordered left and right, go out to deliver the message, and let people carry things in.
For this operation, the shopkeeper paid a lot of money, and carried two large boxes to the hall of the government, which was very face-saving.
Things were brought in, and as soon as the two big boxes were put on the ground, General Han was already overjoyed, this Lin shopkeeper's gift has always been real, this time, good guys, two big boxes, how many things do you get, I have made a fortune now.
