Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Legend of Undefeated - Bewitchment

The wooden stake was half a foot above the ground.

The woman pushed the stake to where it was supposed to be, and the boom rotated in the direction she was pushing, looking easy.

"Go away!"

The woman yelled at the Tibetan men, who had just figured out that they had caused her to work more.

The ferocious Tibetan people left the place in terror, watched the woman dig the pit with a shovel, watched her steadily plant the big wooden stake into the pit, finally filled the soil, removed the pulley from the boom, put away the rope, glared at them, and then went back to the kitchen.

The Tubo people from Qingtang touched the relocated big wooden stake with their hands, and prepared to leave without saying a word.

No one raised the question of the ownership of spices, for them, these spices were of high value, and it was not for people like them to give away at will.

"This brother, please stay!" Tie Xinyuan left the hotel and shouted to keep these Qingtang people.

The naked man led by the big man looked at Tie Xinyuan viciously and said, "Don't give spices!" ”

Tie Xinyuan smiled: "No one wants your spices, I just want to ask you about an old friend." ”

When the Tubo people saw that he was not here to ask for spices, the expressions on their faces looked much better, and Tie Xinyuan invited them to sit down at the table again.

Instructed the guys to bring some food and drink, and after the Qingtang people repeatedly made sure that these things didn't cost money, they devoured them.

As always, I can eat it, but a pot of noodles disappeared in a blink of an eye, not everyone eats a pot, but one person eats a pot.

Tie Xinyuan looked at it with a face full of relief, and poured wine for the Qingtang people and said with emotion: "When I grew up two years ago, a pot of soup cakes was not a problem, but now I don't work." I can't eat those......

I heard that you also have a Han warrior in Qingtang, named Li Qiao, I don't know how many of you know? ”

The naked man put down the rice bowl and looked at Tie Xinyuan, and then looked at his Qingtang brothers, and laughed loudly.

"You're talking about "flower slaves", this guy fought bravely and killed a lot of Tangut people. even infiltrated Western Xia alone and killed the three commanders of the Gansu Military Division and captured Lanzhou.

was supposed to be a member of my Qingtang, but because he was walking around behind our Qingtang's flower buttocks all day long, he was not a good man. ”

Hearing that Brother Qiao personally went to the enemy camp to assassinate the three commanders of Western Xia in order to capture Lanzhou, Tie Xinyuan's heart was inexplicably sour, and tears almost fell out, and Jincheng County was on the edge of Lanzhou......

"I can't imagine that my friend, who I haven't seen for many years, has now become a big man in Qingtang. I have prepared some gifts below, I don't know if I can entrust a few brothers to help deliver them to Li Qiao's hands, and there will be heavy thanks below.

When you come to Hami again in the future, whether it is to do goods or sell, you can do your best. ”

Several Tibetans agreed one after another, knowing that the Qige soup cake shop had a high prestige in Hami, and even secretly collected all kinds of taxes and fees. It's just that these taxes and fees are collected in the name of eating and drinking at the Qige soup cake shop.

The reason why they came to eat at the Qige soup cake shop was also for the purpose of exploring the way. It's just that the money on his body is not enough, and he lost someone once.

Qingtang has a fertile grassland, but there is a very lack of all kinds of materials, and the neighboring Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia seem to have bad intentions towards Qingtang.

The Song people had closed the market since the beginning of the year before on the grounds that Humado had harassed them.

Even fools know that neither the Qingtang people nor the Xixia people will touch a finger of the mutual market, but will carefully cultivate it.

back then. Li Yuanhao's soldiers and horses were less than thirty miles away from Yinxinghe City, and they could obviously continue their march through Yinxinghe City, but in order not to disturb the normal spring wool trade between Yinxing and the city, they would rather make a detour of one hundred and forty miles to conquer the Suide army than to conquer the security army that was close at hand, which had much worse combat effectiveness.

The Song people closed the mutual market with Qingtang. The Qingtang people wanted to continue trading, exchanging their own leathers, horns, medicinal herbs, salt, cattle and sheep for various materials of the Song people.

It's a pity that the Song people don't seem to be very interested in these, and they are only willing to exchange the Qingtang people with the Qingtang armor for the tea, grain and cloth they need.

This is unacceptable for Qingtang, Qingtang's battle armor is iron-colored and black, cold-forged, crystal like a mirror, and a strong crossbow cannot be entered within fifty steps.

Such armor Qingtang people's own warriors are not equipped much, how can they be willing to take it out and exchange things.

Entering the hinterland of the Song people to do business with the Song people, I don't know why, it is obviously a very profitable business, and when I come back and carefully calculate the accounts, I will find that the Qingtang people work hard to do business, and the rewards they get are really not comparable to the hard work they have paid.

The leader of the Jiaoguo Luo had no choice but to find a new source of supplies along the vast Qaidam area......

“…… Can you help us see the spices we brought back? I always felt that the Uighur merchants did not look right. ”

Tie Xinyuan sighed and said, "You are all simple heroes, how can you think of doing business with the Hu people?" Isn't this a clear sign that you have been deceived?

The Western Regions itself does not produce spices, many spices come from the big food country, cumin is not worth anything that grows on the Gobi Desert, and what you camels carry on their backs is actually the powder ground from this thing.

Valuable anise, nutmeg, cinnamon, grass fruit, cloves, suhe, fragrant, ambergris at all.

However, those cumins can be grilled when you take them back, and they taste very chic, but don't get them again next time. ”

In the past, even the Qingtang heroes who did not change their faces in the face of thousands of troops and horses, hearing Tie Xinyuan say this, the naked man fell to the ground with a bang, and twitched for a long time before he said to his partner with red eyes: "Let's go back to them to settle accounts, obviously all we see are whole spices, and they always sell us some powder...... He also said that the fragrance would be stronger, and he would kill them......"

Tie Xinyuan shook his fan and said regretfully: "If you find out during the transaction, with the combat power of the Qingtang warriors, it is not difficult to rob them.

Now, if you look for it again, I assure you, the Uighur merchant who sold you the goods will not be found, they have cheated you out of a great deal of money, and now God knows where you will be happy. ”

The naked man was so angry that he beat his chest and shouted, "O Uighurs, Phuntsok, take my head of Gesang to the general, this may be able to calm the general's anger." ”

The rest of the Tibetan men knelt on the ground, grabbed the dust from their sides, sprinkled it on their heads desperately, and then used saliva to melt away the dust stuck to their faces, smearing strange patterns.

Tie Xinyuan turned his head to look at the poor camel team of seven or eight camels over there, and then at the dozen or so fools in front of him.

Buying spices for long-distance trafficking would actually buy ground spices, and send their fierce warriors out to do this kind of businessman's thing, I am afraid that only the Tubo people from Qingtang can do it.

Tie Xinyuan scratched his head, thinking that this was a good opportunity, so he knocked on the table to attract the attention of all the grieving Tubo people.

Whispered, "What are you best at?" ”

Gesang said dejectedly: "Fighting and grazing cattle and sheep. ”

Tie Xinyuan smiled: "If you are a real warrior, then you have chosen the wrong way to do business in the Western Regions. ”

Gesang frowned and asked, "Is there any difference in doing business?" Isn't it just that I give you green salt and you give me spices...... That's how we do business with the Song people, but the Song people's things are too expensive. ”

Tie Xinyuan smiled: "Things are expensive, but the things you buy back are real, they are cheap here, but the things you buy are fake."

In fact, doing business in the Western Regions requires the cooperation of force to complete, and the reason why your general sent you here is because he took a fancy to the fact that you are all warriors, but it is a pity that you gave up your force and chose an ordinary transaction. “

Gesang said angrily: "It turns out that people bully us as fools, Phuntsok, you go back, Lao Tzu will go back to the Uighurs, and if you don't go back to see the general with the head of the profiteer, you will give your own head." ”

Tie Xinyuan glanced at this vulgar Tubo man, although this guy looked stupid, but just a moment ago, he forgot about cutting off his head immediately, and went back with the head of a profiteer.

In other words, seeing that the mission failed, it is better to slip away now than to go back and be beheaded by the general.

As for his words about recovering the Falcon profiteers, Tie Xinyuan didn't believe a word.

"It's not practical, in the Gobi, your goods, my goods are not so clear, the general more powerful warriors, even if they don't have one in their pockets, people are still eating and drinking spicy food on the Gobi Desert. Even my small shop can be opened to eat. ”

Hassan glanced at Tie Xinyuan deeply and said, "Where is there such a good thing?" ”

Tie Xinyuan said with a smile: "I was talking too much just now, a few heroes can't do this kind of thing, I will help you make up for the spices that your general needs, after all, I have to ask you to help me bring gifts back to Qingtang, it's not worth taking risks easily." ”

Hassan approached Tie Xinyuan and whispered: "We don't want your things, you just need to tell me where to find the goods I want, and after the matter is done, I will divide half of you." ”

Tie Xinyuan said with some embarrassment: "This time the strength of the other party is very strong, and more than fifty Uighur warriors with a small team of officials transported the goods of one hundred and twenty camels. In three days, you will reach Hami and finally enter the desert.

In other words, this cargo was a gift from the Uighurs to the Khitans, and you will know the value of this cargo if you do the math. ”

"Is there any spice?" Hassan still has a lingering interest in spices, but he doesn't care about the affairs of the Khitans, after all, the Khitans are too far away for them.

"There are no ordinary spices, only the best ones like Suhexiang, if you really need spices, I have them here, if you get them, you can ask me for them, the goods of a hundred camels, in exchange for the spices of a hundred camels."

Tie Xinyuan put away the folding fan and said to Hassan seriously. (To be continued.) )
