Originally, it was a condition to talk about business, but Ashdezhi said the problem prominently, for this condition, which had no psychological preparation at all before, Tang Cheng was initially stunned, but carefully thought about whether Ashdezhi's request could be agreed, he was thinking more about why this businessman surnamed Hu would make such a request.

Tracing back to the source, only after thinking clearly and thoroughly about the root cause of the problem can we make the most accurate, or most beneficial decision.

After thinking for a long time, Tang Cheng had an eight-word judgment on the sudden request of Asdezhi: unexpected and reasonable.

Unexpectedly, the settlement of the nine surnamed Hu is a civil affairs issue in the pure sense, and it is not something that Ashdezhi, a businessman, should worry about; Unexpectedly, because of the embarrassment of the Hu people with the surname of Jiu, they cannot be recognized in the northern land, and their search for a stable settlement is destined to be persevering.

Because of this request, Tang Cheng finally seriously examined the nine surnamed Hu people for the first time, and the result of the examination was that he was very similar to the Jews seen in later history books.

The Jews, the "slaves of God", have been exploited in the complex political, economic and social context of Europe because of their differences in faith, and this group has been subjected to discrimination, persecution and murder for nearly 2,000 years, with as many as six million Jews being genocide during World War II alone. Until the end of World War I in 1922, when they had their own place of residence, the Jews could not live in any country or city in a stable place, and they longed for a stable and non-discriminatory life for 2,000 years, and they also wandered for 2,000 years.

The only difference between the nine surnamed Hu people and the Jews in the northern land of the Tang Dynasty is that the Jews have become "outliers" because of their faith, while the nine surnamed Hu people bear the original sin because of their blood, and other than that, their constant discrimination and displacement are no different.

Perhaps another difference is that the Jews relied on religion to bind their tribesmen scattered across various cities and cities, while the Hu people relied primarily on a common means of livelihood. Their status determines that it is difficult for them to have fixed farmland and pastures, and engaging in business has almost become the biggest external feature of this ethnic group, so that they have another title of "Nine Surnamed Shanghu". Then in such an ethnic group, the status of the great merchant is naturally the highest, and if you consider it from this specific situation, it is normal for Ashide to make such a request.

Tang grew up silent thinking is the biggest torture for Ashdezhi, after saying that request just now, he was very surprised, after all, Tang Cheng did not refuse as soon as he heard this request like many officials in the past, and not refusing means that there is hope, this hope is for the nine surnamed Hu people, how important it is to him, not the nine surnamed Hu people can never really understand.

Compared with those mature counties in Yangguan, Longmen County is very large, which means that there is enough land to accommodate the nine surnamed Hu; In addition, the current Longmen County Commander is a very strong person, strong enough to subdue Longmen Xi, and even a state assassin can't overturn him, which means that once the nine surnamed Hu moves in, he can have enough ability to suppress the possible backlash of public opinion; Last but not least, this Longmen County Commander's attitude towards Shangjia's affairs is different from that of all the officials he has encountered before, he can take the initiative to contact Shangjia, he does understand the importance of Shangjia's affairs, or from the perspective of the sophistication of negotiations, he is a businessman who has accumulated many years, which is especially important for the Jiuhu people who make a living from business.

To sum up the above points. Longmen County, where Tang Cheng sat in the hall, was the most suitable place for the Hu people to pursue after being disappointed again and again. As long as you can do it in the middle...... Just think about the result. Asdechi felt blood boiling all over his face. It would be the biggest business of his life. If he succeeds, he will become a hero who saves the people in need. It is worshiped by many clansmen and even future generations.

These days I have been thinking about it every time. Asdezhi always unexpectedly came up with the names of the places recorded in the history books of the Tang Dynasty. Zigong, Lü Buwei, Fan Li...... It is not in vain to be able to do the things of businessmen to their kind of realm, and they have worked hard all their lives. Small businessmen make money. Dajia seeks fame. Profit goes with the name. Compared to such an immortal in front of and behind him. What is the gain and loss of these small money, grain and land at the moment?

The greater the expectation, the greater the fear of disappointment. The more you eagerly gain, the more you can't afford to lose. This is the case with the Diastdz now. And Tang Cheng, who determines the success or failure of the biggest business in his life, has been silent for too long. After a long time, he came to the land of Ashid and clutched water out of his hands. A heart hangs and is about to be out of breath.

After the public case, Tang Cheng was still silent. But Astech couldn't hold back any longer. "Adults ......". Quietly inside the business room. The cry was so dry with a shudder. As if he was terminally ill, he whispered before dying.

Tang Cheng, who had been silent, finally opened his mouth after glancing at Ashdezhi's face. "Leader Asid. You've really created a big problem for this officer." He sighed in embarrassment. He got up, took the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and handed it over. "Let's have a cup of tea. How many people with the surname Hu live in various places? ”。

Listen to Tang Cheng ask this. Asdezhi was taking the tea cup and his hand shook suddenly. The shallow cup of tea in the mainland suddenly rippled

The endless ripples, just like his mood, "I don't have a specific plan to be around 200,000."

"Even if Longmen and Rao Le are counted together, the entire Xi people are only more than 600,000, 200,000...... This is too much, and even if the official grants you this request, he will not be able to accept it."

Tang Cheng shook his head and just finished saying this, Ashdezhi immediately took over and said: "They are all dragging their families, maybe 200,000 people can still come over?" Don't worry, at most, it's only a number of forty-one."

"It's a 'just'", Tang Cheng continued to shake his head and said: "According to the April 1 plan that Leader Ashid said, it is also about 50,000 people, and Longmen County is only such a number now, which is equivalent to one more county to govern ......."

Tang Cheng stood up as he spoke, took his teacup from the public case, and after filling it with water, he still sat next to Ashdezhi, sipping tea and continuing: "The resettlement of one family by one, the compilation of household registration, the collection of taxes, the arrangement of local thieves, as well as lawsuits and sentences, how much more will these 50,000 people do, and which one is easy?" ”。

After hearing Tang Cheng start to complain, not only did he not get depressed and panicked, but he felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, as an old businessman who traveled south and north, he understood better than anyone that all large businesses must always start with complaining first, otherwise how would the price be raised later?

In this matter, the anxious Ashdezhi really did not have the patience to bend around, and he was afraid that the business would collapse in the process of circumambulating the ground, this business was too important to him, so important that he could not afford to collapse at all.

"Everything is up to Lord Lao", Ashdezhi put down the teacup in his hand, and stared at Tang Cheng with two leopard eyes, "As long as this can be accomplished, the adult will never dare to quit if he has a life."

"You're forcing me, but the official still likes your cheerfulness", when he said this, Tang Cheng shook his head with a wry smile on his face, "That's it, the official just gave up his body to take this matter!" After all, they are all the people of Tian Khan, and the official really can't bear to let the nine surnamed Hu people not live in peace. However, the stakes are serious, and the leader of Asid is afraid that he can't afford it alone."

"This is a major matter involving the whole clan, and it is naturally difficult for one person to decide, but you can rest assured, my lord, I can speak to the principals of my clan in various parts of the north, and I can consult with them on this matter. If Tang County has something to say, please speak up."

"Okay, refreshing", Tang Cheng put down the teacup and stood up from the Hu stool, pacing in the official room with his hands behind him: "As long as the number of people is within 50,000, the nine surnamed Hu people who are willing to come to Longmen to settle in this county have all been accepted, but there is a condition for this."

"Speak, sir."

"The poor households with no permanent property in this county cannot accept them for the time being, and Longmen is barren and poor, which cannot be complained of by the officials. In addition, all those who come to Longmen are not allowed to buy and sell land with the original people of Longmen within five years, if you really want to, you can go to the front of the East Courtyard Si Tian Cao to buy a hillside to build terraces, and the county government every ten out of one, and the Tang people are treated equally; Third, the nine surnamed Hu people who settled in this county need to bear more than 20% of the taxes, 15 men and 13 women are counted according to the number of people in their columns, which is also about five years, and after five years, the rent and Yong adjust the three taxes are the same as those of the people of Longmen. What objections does Team Leader Ashide have to these three points mentioned by this official? ”。

Hearing this condition, Ashide was full of bitterness, "The adults have stipulated so much, but I don't know what to give?" ”。

"In all the northern prefectures and counties, which yamen allows more than 5,000 people with the surname Hu to live together? But in the dragon gate can! And the county Zhun Er and others are self-selected in the settlement, and the county Yazhong will also recruit nine people surnamed Hu to take charge of the affairs of the gathering place, all in all, what this official can give you is a safe environment, and there is no need to worry about the Yamen discrimination and arbitrary exploitation environment", at this point, pacing in front of Ashide's body, Tang Cheng deliberately leaned down and stared at his eyes and said in a deep voice: "The most important thing is that this official can give you the exclusive right to operate the goods of Longmen Xi, In the future, all the products of Longmen Xi and the Raole grassland that came south through Longmen Xi were sold by Er and others."

"What?" , Ashide bounced up from his seat violently, "Is this true, my lord?" ”。

"Not only that, but this official can also give a gift, all the nine surnamed Hu merchants who hold the 'passing office' issued by the Longmen County Ya, their caravans, whether it is the Suoyang Pass in charge of Tianchengjun or the county gate pass in Hebei Province, in addition to the regular tax set by the household department, will not let you spend an extra penny", after taking a sip of the tea that had been cooled down on the small table, Tang Cheng smiled slightly and said: "How much can this article save you every year along the way?" You don't have to settle this account again."

"Is that true?" At this moment, apart from this, Astechi didn't know what to say.

"There is no lie", at this time, even the tea that had cooled down Tang Cheng still drank it deliciously, and the expression on his face was smiling, "Everything that the official can give has been made clear, as for what you can give...... Leader Ashid will go back to discuss with someone as soon as possible, and only after the sincerity of the Longmen County Ya is satisfied, can he continue to do the rest of the work."

When Ashide came, he was led in by a small servant, just because of this, he really felt a little bad at the time, but now when he was accompanied by Tang Chengqin and sent out of the ya, he didn't expect it to come.

When Ashide was in a trance, Tang Cheng was in a relaxed mood, if there was no big accident

Heaven is a big problem solved. As early as a few days ago, he went to Jinyang to ponder the shortcomings of Niu Zude's business methods, not to mention anything else, but the Niu family caravan was enough to make him scoff.

Maybe it was because of the limitations of the business philosophy, or Niu Zude was simply careful that people were afraid that people would make money from it, and in the trade with Longmen, from the purchase to the transportation and then to the final shipment, his Niu family caravan was tightly controlled, so it seemed that the final shipment price was high, but he didn't expect how much it would cost to raise such a huge caravan.

Even in later generations, logistics was a big expense for those large manufacturing companies, let alone the current Tang Dynasty. A caravan that covers almost the entire territory of Hebei Province will cost a day of capitation alone, not counting the miscellaneous expenses such as the purchase of livestock and forage, not to mention the benefits of the handler in the process.

No matter how it is calculated, the cost of feeding this Niu family caravan is by no means more than 20% of the total profit, which is also where Tang Cheng dared to make a bid in front of Min He that day.

Since he took over this business, he has never thought about what kind of caravan he wants to run by himself, it is thankless, and it is really embarrassing to be so hard to do a monopoly business? Wouldn't it be better to take the goods with your left hand and sell them directly with your right hand after increasing the price? Professional distribution is handed over to professional people to do, so that not only can you save worry and money, but also the goods can go faster.

Tang Cheng looked at the "professionals" who were these nine surnamed merchants, the transportation capacity of their caravans, the local channels they owned, and the associated terminal shippers of long-term cooperation have been accumulated for decades, which is far from being comparable to the formation of their own caravans, how many goods can not be sold with such a huge business network? Where is there where the goods can't go?

Holding monopoly resources, and then cooperating with the most powerful channel providers, no matter in that era, strong alliances are the king of doing business!

This was originally a transaction that complemented each other's advantages and took what they needed, but now thanks to this specific era, they can take out the resources that should be cooperative and sell them again, and it is difficult for Tang Cheng to be unhappy when encountering such a good thing.

After sending the trance-stricken Ashide branch to the gate, Tang Cheng stopped, "Leader Ashide don't forget the food he just mentioned, if the batch of grain has not been shipped to Longmen within five days, it will be difficult for the team leader to meet next time."

"Merchants are based on letters, adults can rest assured", as Ashid raised his hand to greet, his car parked not far from the front of the ya, as soon as the coachman stopped the carriage, he saw a man jumping inside, this man is more than ten years old, although the appearance is rough but the person is very flexible, put the car pedal, deliver the hand stove, and obediently salute Tang Cheng, the piles and piles are made with a plank and an eye, it is really fast and good.

Seeing all this, Tang Cheng casually asked Ashdezhi, who was about to give up his hand, "This son is good, who is this?" ”。

"Kang Rolling Mountain is good", Ashdezhi looked at the little man and said with a smile: "This is the son of one of my clan sisters, his father died early, and now follow me to learn some merchant trade and make a living."

Hearing this name, Tang Cheng felt strange and faintly familiar, "Kangshan? ”。

Seeing that Tang Cheng was puzzled, the little Ding Nan who had just been praised by him waited for a while and saw that Ashdezhi didn't speak again, so he obediently stepped forward and bowed his waist and said respectfully: "This name is indeed awkward, but the little one has a Tang name, and it sounds smooth."

It's been a while since he came to Longmen, and when he was wearing an official robe, a ten-year-old child dared to talk to him like this, and this was the first time, and for a while, Tang Cheng became more and more interested in him, "Then what's your Tang name?" ”。

"With his stepfather's surname An, his name is Lushan", the little Ding man with a rough face smiled at Tang Cheng and smiled: "The little one is called An Lushan."

"Tang County Order ......", Ashdezhi didn't understand what happened to Tang Cheng, he lost his mind after hearing An Lushan's self-reported name, and he had never seen him like this when he talked about how big a business he was.

"There are officials to have Lu, and Lu Rushan really occupies all the official positions and money, a good name, this is a good name!" , Tang Cheng, who had turned his senses, looked at An Lushan who was smiling at him again, and said with a slight smile: "An Lushan is good, but it is quite suitable for the eyes of this official, don't forget to bring him with you when you come next time."

Ashide laughed: "This is his creation, he can't ask for it, dare to disobey his fate?" ”。

As soon as he finished saying this, An Lushan obediently bowed to Tang Cheng again, "Thank you, Lord County."

Tang Cheng looked at An Lushan and nodded lightly, with a genuine smile on his face that did not have the slightest hint of greetings, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" ”。
