Kou Jiuhui smiled and said: "Patriarch Zhang, don't be impatient, speaking of which, you and we are old friends, and the person Lord Yang is most familiar with in Dunhuang is actually you." ”

Fu Qiu and Yu Bao both had the idea of saying goodbye, but the two didn't dare, Yang Chong's means of killing in Gaochang were not covered, it was really those who followed me and those who rebelled against me died; If you leave with your sleeves brushed away, you will bring disaster to the family. Zhang Huaishan smiled instead, and said calmly: "If the adult has something to say, just command." ”

Yang Chong picked up a bamboo stick from the bookcase, signaled Yang Yanshan behind him to hand it to Zhang Huaishan and said: "This bamboo stick is returned to the original owner, I also learned in Dunhuang that the patriarch Zhang was a shareholder of Dunhuang Jinling Qianzhuang, when General Mai Tiezhu came to Dunhuang, it must have been Lord Zhao Hongsi who helped you, but I believe that in Dunhuang, I can find the remains of some workshops." Xie Linsheng once came out of your mansion before going to the Jade Gate, and now, I only want to know the five names of that hand. ”

Yang Chong was a little proud, Kou Jiuhui and Liang Shuo still found clues in the information of Rushan; Zhang Huaishan understood that Yang Chong was telling himself that Zhao Hongsi's workshop in the Tuntian army had been found, and that the channel through which he and Zhao Hongsi helped the Chijin Turks sell stolen goods had been discovered. ”

Kou Jiuheng nodded secretly, everything was in Yang Chong's design. News came from the Cui family that Pei Ju offered advice to Yang Guang and was ready to marry the youngest brother of Shibi Khan, Qi Jishe, with the daughter of the royal family, and worship Ji Ji as the southern Khan, so as to divide the Turks; Yang Chong expected that Qi Jishe would never dare to accept it, and there would be problems in the trade between the Turks and the Great Sui, which would be beneficial to Hexi, so Yang Chong wanted to give the Zhang family a chance, and it depended on Zhang Huaishan's own reaction.

Yuan Renhui and the others looked at Zhang Huaishan's attitude and understood that there must be a key secret, Yang Chong motioned for Zhang Huaishan to stand up and return to his seat and said, "I promise you." ”

Zhang Huaishan sat down again, thanked him and said, "Murong Xiaojun, Kang Sheli, Hun Guluo, An Wuzhao, Hou Mo Chen Yi." ”

Yuan Renhui was surprised: "But Hou Mo Chen Yi of Daizhou, the son of Mo Chen Rui, the Duke of Liang State? ”

Daizhou, that is, Yanmen County, the place where the Xianbei people rise, has equal interests and disadvantages in Yun, Shuo and other places, and is the key to Taiyuan; Hou Mochen is a tribe of Xianbei, originally living in Kuhu Zhenshui, and is now a large household in Daizhou. Hou Mo Chen Yi hereditary Yi is the same as the three divisions, but he has a higher reputation in the rivers and lakes, and is the first master of the Shaolin Temple layman. Zhang Huaishan nodded and said: "If you don't have the ability to reach the sky, where will you get the news and strength, how can you establish the Chijin Turks, Hou Mo Chen Rui was exiled to Lingnan, how can Hou Mo Chen Yi be indifferent." ”

Fu Qiu and Yu Bao secretly complained bitterly, Fu Qiu and Yu Bao are all snakes in Dunhuang, how could they not know that Zhao Hongsi and the Zhang family's workshops that deal with stolen goods, Yang Chong and Zhang Huaishan have the intention to let the two of them hear this secret, if something goes wrong in the future, they must not be able to eat and walk around, unless, unless they are the same as Zhang Huaishan, they take refuge in Yang Chong. Fu Qiu instantly made up his mind, immediately stood up, and Shi Li said: "Lord Yang, Fu has always wanted to do something for the people, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity. ”

Yang Chong smiled with satisfaction: "Xiaogu Tuntian is preparing to build a city, and a county will be set up in the future, Patriarch Fu is a local, and I am ready to ask Patriarch Fu to be the deputy general of the Tuntian Captain and the lord of Xiaogu City." Lord Yu Bao succeeded Yang Ji as Shi Cao Shen Military, and Patriarch Zhang served as the deputy supervisor of Dunhuang Border City, you can contact Kang Sheli, Hun Guluo, and An Wuzhao, as long as they promise not to harass my Great Sui, I can consider doing business with them; Kou Jiuhui is the chief supervisor of the Governor's Mansion and your immediate boss. ”

Zhang Huaishan hurriedly said: "No problem, they plundered the merchant travelers just to increase their strength, and Lord Zhao Hongsi had to cooperate with them considering the safety of Dunhuang." Now that Tuyuhun has been defeated and the Sogdians and Tiele have retreated northward, the Turks may have no choice but to change their course, and if the adults have given them a way to live, I will arrange for someone to inform them. ”

As a result of Yu Bao's visit to Yang Chong, the Dunhuang scholars fell to the ground, Zhang Huaishan handed over a brocade workshop and a handicraft workshop, Yang Chong accepted the twenty looms of the brocade workshop together with twenty weavers and three maintenance craftsmen, and returned the workshop specializing in copycat Persian handicrafts to Zhang Huaishan. What Yang Chong needed was the attitude of the Zhang family, so he told Zhang Huaishan that he would be a business partner in the future, and the two commercial houses under his name would buy goods from the Zhang family.

Yang Chong's actions relieved the Zhang family, and also relieved all walks of life in Dunhuang, who could let go of the Zhang family, which was considered an enemy, for others, it is estimated that as long as they did not take the initiative to meet and provoke, Yang Chong would not ask. As Zhang Huaishan handed over the land deed of the workshop, Xie Linsheng followed Xie Yingdeng and left, and each family expressed their willingness to join the Western Regions Governor's Mansion and send people to serve as officials. Zhao Wenzhong knew that the previous business must have been broken, so he simply gave Yang Chong a gold and silver jewelry workshop.

The Governor's Office of the Western Regions was located in Zhangye City, and Yang Chong ordered Wei Yuanzhao to serve as the deputy governor, Sikong Xing as Sima, Liang Shuo as the chief historian, Du Yan as the county guard of Zhangye, and Yuan Renhui's uncle Yuan Wei as the county guard of the Western County; Fang Xuanling and Yuwen Chengdu were all detained by Yu Zhongwen in Gaochang, and only Wang Jun escaped stunned.

Yang Chong expected that Zhongwen would not take Fang Xuanling and Yuwen Chengdu, so he arranged for Meng Kunpeng to be in charge of the plan to establish an industrial base in Jiuquan County. Any group must rely on money to support, otherwise the military salary will not be settled, and there are countless military, civilian and other expenses, Yang Chong believes that his knowledge can solve the problem, and there is no need to scrape the people's fat and ointment like others.

Liangjiang has begun to build a blast furnace for the iron factory, Perth Limi is responsible for building a glass workshop, and Tianjian is in charge of personnel, and continues to recruit various craftsmen from Zhangye and other places, all of whom were bought as Yang Chong's slaves. Tian Gui was responsible for the construction of the entire industrial zone, the original kiln factory was handed over to Fang Chou to manage, and the construction team was in charge of Yang Ba. Yang Ba, like Yang Yan and Yang Jiu, lacks ability, but there is no problem with loyalty, and it is very suitable to be a supervisor-style steward; Yang Shuang and Yang Yu stayed in Chang'an and did not come.

In addition, the four workshops of brocade, carpet, jade, and gold and silverware bought in Dunhuang were moved to Jiuquan, and the jade, gold and silverware were merged into one jewelry workshop, which was in charge of Yu Jianzi; Brocade, carpets and weaving workshops moved from Chang'an formed a branch of the commercial bank, which was handed over to Dongfang Baida. The Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo and the Central Plains caused the business of the Dongfang family to plummet, and after the last shipment was robbed by Lu Xingxing's men, Dongfang became insolvent; Tianqi helped Dongfang Bai clear his debts, and Dongfang Bai joined Baijiangzhuang and followed him all the way to Hexi.
