In the barracks Yuanmen, the guards dressed all over were vigilantly looking at more than a dozen people outside the Yuanmen, especially the man with deep eyes and high noses, although there were already business contacts in Xiyang City, Huangzhou, but the people of this state did not look like good people. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Anturo stood with fatigue, he set off from Yecheng and rode all the way south to Xiyang, Huangzhou, Shannan, and then rushed all the way west to Jingzhou and Wuguan Road to come here, and he was tired day and night.

I walked at least 200 miles a day, and it took less than 20 days to travel from Yecheng in the north to the vast Qinling Mountains, which was not much different from the messenger who delivered the news.

The price was that many horses were killed, and in order to facilitate the journey, he even tied himself to the saddle and drove half-asleep, so that now Anturo and his entourage were so sleepy that they could fall asleep on their feet.

Tiredness welled up, Anturo took out some herbs from his waist bag and wiped them on his nose, the spicy smell entered his head through his nostrils, and instantly refreshed himself, this is his ancestral secret medicine, which is used to refresh himself during long journeys.

The Sogdians have been doing business for generations, and the habit of doing business has been integrated into their blood, from the Central Plains in the far east to the "Great Qin" in the far west, there are traces of Sogdian caravans.

When you go out with your belongings and goods, armed guards are essential, and refreshment is the key to vigilance, and now Antura is to refresh yourself so that you can do business later.

Buying and selling, buying and selling, there is buying and selling, today's buyers and sellers, Anturo is the buyer, and someone in the barracks is the seller, if the other party does not see him, then there is no need to think about anything.

I can't help but think that I have come all the way here to do business, and no matter what, this business must be done.

Several people came over from the camp, and Anturo recognized that the person who was the leader was Zhang Yu, who was close to Duke Diguo, and there were a few more armor soldiers around him.

Only when entering the barracks, there will be soldiers to follow, this is the necessary vigilance, to prevent the fine work from mixing in, of course, more barracks of their guard system is in vain, small merchants and hawkers can enter the camp to do business.

Seeing that Zhang Yu nodded at him, he said that he was only allowed to bring one entourage inside, and after explaining a few words to his entourage, Anturo whispered a few words to his entourage, and walked into the barracks alone.

After walking in the barracks for an unknown amount of time, he came to a large tent, Zhang Yu entered for a while and then turned out, leading Anturo into the tent.

"Anturo, son of Anga, what wind blew you to Shangluo?"

"Dear Guogong, it's been more than half a year since we last met, so don't you come here well?"

"My father is fine, sit."

"Thank you."

Yuwen looked at Anturo in front of him with interest, the other party is a pure businessman, economic animal, came to Xiyang last year to talk to him about cooperation, this time as an "uninvited guest" suddenly appeared, let him smell the smell of business opportunities.

"Shopkeeper An, how is Yecheng now?"

"Returning to China, Yecheng is as prosperous as ever..."

The two began to talk and talk, Anturo was not in a hurry to express his intentions, and Yuwenwen didn't care what the other party wanted to do, anyway, he was bored in Shangluo, and now someone chatted with him, and he couldn't ask for it.

The topic started with the bookstore of the Huangzhou bookseller in Yecheng, and then the cooperation between the two sides, the books and fabrics of Huangzhou sold well in Yecheng, and the cooperation between the two sides achieved a win-win situation.

The branch of Ruixing in Yecheng was guaranteed by local wealthy merchants such as Antuluo, and the credit was initially established, and the appearance of bills of exchange saved the merchants who traveled between Yecheng and Xiyang a lot of trouble, and directly stimulated the desire of merchants from the north to do business in Shannan.

Northland merchants opened bills of exchange in Yecheng, easily went south to Xiyang, purchased goods and transported back to Yecheng, if they went to other states and counties in Shannan to do business, they could also be cashed in Anlu, Xiangyang and Jiangling Ruixing, which was much more convenient.

Therefore, not only the products of Huangzhou, but also the production of other states and counties in Shannan have also been sold, and convenient payment methods have brought more business opportunities.

The topic is getting farther and farther, and even all kinds of things that are pleasing to the eye, the two foxes are now more patient, and obviously Anturo is not confident enough, and finally said what he meant:

"Guogong, An is here this time for the people of Guanzhong Tongzhou, and I want to ask Guogong to help."

"Same state? Although Bengong has not yet gone to Chang'an, Tongzhou has not been affected by the war, why is the shopkeeper so worried? ”

"It's not a secret, most of An's family is in Chang'an, and many clansmen have also settled in Chang'an, and now the official army is at war with Yang Yi, and An wants to ask Guogong to say a few good words in front of Daxingtai to keep the clansmen safe."

Nonsense!

Yu Wenwen drank a glass of water and complained in his heart, what the other party said sounded reasonable, but in fact, it was a superfluous move to take off his pants and fart.

Most of the industry and people are in Chang'an, so they want to keep safe? It's easy to do, those people in Chang'an pay their own protection money! Where to use your Anturo to come all the way to Shangluo.

The Sogdians are a somewhat special group, they can eat well in all dynasties of the Central Plains, and they rely on their ability to do business, like a chicken that lays golden eggs, and is exploited at most, and under normal circumstances, no one can get along with them and want to be exterminated.

Seeing Yuwen Wen smiling and silent, An Tuluo was extremely helpless, this Duke of Di Guo seemed to be unable to fool, so he could only be open and honest: his family voted for the nobles of the Sui court, which can be described as both glory and loss, and now it is at the end of the road.

Who is the nobleman? Yang Xiong, the king of Guangping, who is known as one of the four nobles.

The Zhou army entered Chang'an, Yang Xiong was killed in battle, and the Yang clan was basically finished, but the Sogdian An clan who voted under it did not want to finish, even if they took refuge in Yang Xiong, it was only for the convenience of doing business, and of course the money earned had to be "tribute".

Anturo, who was far away in Yecheng, learned the 'good news' of the official army taking Chang'an for the first time, and he knew that the situation was not good, and his family was a little close to the Yang family, and he was afraid that he could not solve the problem with money.

There are many Sogdian groups in Guanzhong, and there is no shortage of the An clan in the same state, if the commander of the Zhou army liquidates the Yang clan and even clicks the An clan, then there will be only one single seedling left in this vein.

Anturo did not receive a letter from the clansmen asking for help, but the reaction was very fast, his backer was able to speak in the court, but the county officials were not as good as the current management, if they wanted to save their families and clansmen, they could only ask the commander of the Zhou army, Yuwen Liang, the prince of Qiguo, to raise his noble hand.

Yu Wenliang couldn't speak, so he thought of his "partner" Yu Wenwen, but Anturo rushed to Xiyang City, Huangzhou, Shannan, but he was empty.

Fortunately, Yuwenwen's whereabouts after leading the army to the expedition were not deliberately kept secret, and Anturo learned that he was stationed in Jingzhou Prefecture to govern the city, so he rushed over non-stop, and learned that he had moved to Shangluo, so he rushed here without resting.

"Guogong, as long as you can protect An's relatives in the family, An is willing to do anything."

Anturo made an offer, but there was no substance, this was waiting for a counteroffer, Yuwenwen thought for a moment, and began to analyze the "project situation".

First of all, as of today, Yuwen Wen doesn't know what the situation of An's clansmen in Chang'an is, if it has been clicked, then don't talk about it.

Secondly, the last time An's leaked the news, let the Sui people fish in troubled waters and enter the Xiyang City Yiguo Mansion to rob people, this matter has been settled, he can ignore it, but if there are other evil things, if Daxingtai wants to kill it, he can't help it.

Again, depending on the difficulty of the project, the charges are different.

"In this way, the shopkeeper An is an acquaintance, so he will have a ninety-fifty discount..."Yu Wenwen is very direct, as the third generation of black-hearted officials, he must have the consciousness of collecting money to do things, "To what extent do you want to protect it?" ”

What Anturo was waiting for was this sentence: "Naturally, I want to save everything..."

"That's the price..."Yu Wenwen began to rub his fingers, openly asking for bribes, "Shopkeeper An knows, if Daxingtai wants to be punished, it will be difficult for this father..."

You are a profiteer, and I am also a profiteer, so isn't it natural for profiteers to cheat profiteers?

An Tuluo did not hesitate, since the other party "asked for bribes", it means that the transaction has to be done: "Guogong, An has a piece of news, I don't know how much it is worth?" (To be continued.) )
