Chapter 21 Xijing Datong Mansion

Datong Mansion of Xijing Road, Liaoguo.

This was the first time that Zhao Xuan set foot in the Liao State as a businessman, and the sixteen states of Yanyun had made Song Taizu and Taizong dream of the soul, and they had launched a northern expedition in order to recapture this fertile land but returned in vain. Now there is no power to take it back. Is Zhenzong really a master and faction that people say in the history books, a coward?

Only Zhao Xuan vaguely understood that the reason why Zhenzong concluded the Tanyuan Alliance was to use the economy to drag down the Liao State, rather than using pure force, but this time Zhenzong was willing to send him to the Liao State to do things, it seems that the change of power in the country has been obvious, and it is very unfavorable to Zhenzong and Zhao Benefit. The empress's power is already very large, and as soon as she comes to power, she may overthrow all the national policies that Zhenzong has set before, including trade with Liao.

Since the Tanyuan Alliance, Xijing Road Datong Mansion has become an important economic and trade place in the Liao and Song dynasties, which is close to the Hedong Road of the Song Dynasty, and the commerce is developed, the furs and horses needed by the Song Dynasty can be bought here, and the tea required by the Liao nobles can also be purchased here.

Zhao Xuan bought a large amount of food with money on Hedong Road, money is not rare for him, and he has received a lot of rewards in the palace over the years, all of which have been brought out by Zhao Xuan, and he has become a wealthy businessman.

Rare is expensive, why Zhao Xuan didn't buy the tea that the Liao people need, but bought the ubiquitous beef and mutton as goods, which is puzzling.

Only Zhao Xuan understands that the plague of locusts in the sky is about to cross the border to Datong, and then grain will become a sought-after commodity, as expensive as gold.

Datong is a place where Han Chinese and Khitan people live together, so Zhao Xuan's identity does not arouse suspicion from others. This Datong post house is also mixed.

"Have you heard of it all? Datong Mansion is haunted, and now as soon as the sun sets, the city gate is closed and there is no one on the street, so there is no way to do business like this. ”

"But it's not, I heard that Datong Mansion invited the Tianluo Archmage to suppress the ghost hunting, which is good, the ghost was not caught, but he died."

"I think I have to go to the Song Dynasty to find a Taoist priest, I heard that there is a person in Bianjing City, who can manipulate the overwhelming locusts! That scene scared people to death! ”

"Let's talk about it, this Taoist priest is more powerful than the monk and mage of our Liao Kingdom? Can you still manipulate locusts? You're not kidding me, are you? ”

"It's not good to reach the ears of Lord Xiao Xunxiao, I just heard that the fire and locusts in Bianjing City were caused by that person, and the emperor wanted to arrest him, and he disappeared in a flash! Now he is nowhere to be found. ”

"Oh my God, the ghost in this Datong City can't be the ghost made by that Taoist priest!"

"Ouch, I think it's very possible, this Song Dynasty originally wanted to defeat Da Liao through the Taoist haunted method."

Zhao Xuan listened to everyone's discussion in the post station, and laughed in his heart, it seems that the matter of performing secret techniques in Bianjing has spread to the Liao Kingdom.

It's just that Datong is haunted, what's going on?

Of course, there must be no ghosts, there must be someone making trouble here, who wants to cause chaos in Liao like himself? Who is Xiao Xun in their mouths? But listening to this surname, it must be a nobleman of the Liao Kingdom.

Just as Zhao Xuan was about to get up and leave, a man in a wool wrap sat in front of Zhao Xuan.

"This little brother looks at the eyes, isn't he from Da Liao?"

Zhao Xuan carefully looked at the man in front of him, with a beard, a high nose bridge, deep eyes, a tall man, and a full Liao appearance.

"In the next Zhou Geng, you came from the Song Dynasty to do trade, are you?"

"The little brother is from the border of the Song Dynasty? I have been doing business in Datong Mansion for ten years, and I have never seen you. ”

Zhao Xuan thought to himself, this person was obviously doubting his identity, what did he want to do?
