Li Fan said coldly: "Brother Wei Chi, I don't think this is good, you also know that when the money is collected in the end, the stewards of the three of us must be present, and after all, it is a transaction in the Turkic territory, without our guards, I am not at ease." ”

Wang Huaqiang's eyes flashed: "Then what do you think of this, President Li took three stewards, and more than half of the brothers walked with us, the right to be guards, and they also followed together after crossing the border, my people are only responsible for pushing carts, to be honest, every car is overloaded from Daxing to here, and many cars are a little scattered, and only my handlebar style can push it well." ”

Li Fan sneered in his heart, presumably this surnamed Wei Chi was not worried about the transaction in the Western Regions, afraid that An Suiyu and himself would join forces to trap him, so he had to follow him anyway, but he also had the same mentality, this transaction excluded both parties from the receiving link, and they were a little unreasonable, thinking of this, he nodded and ordered to the guards behind him: "Five hundred people stay, push the car back to Guzang, and the rest of the people get on the horse and go to the border together." ”

Taking advantage of Li Fan's turn of his head to order, Wang Huaqiang's face showed a subtle sneer, this qiē was carefully arranged by him, he calculated the time and deliberately was late, the purpose was to force Li Fan not to change the car, not to order the goods, and directly let his subordinates push the cart out of the country, and only in this way could he find an opportunity to take Changsun Sheng out of the car together, and then find an opportunity to release him and let him sneak into the Western Turks.

This time he only brought 500,000 catties of goods, and he would follow An Suiyu back to the East - Turks, and the remaining 200,000 catties would be traded a month later, when his own people were not on the scene, and as early as the third year of the emperor's reign, Changsun Sheng, who had become an old acquaintance with Datou Khan in the war against the Turks, would inform Datou Khan of the time and place of the transaction, and Datou Khan would break the deal.

At that time, their own people had already arrived in the Turks, and the local tyrants in Guzang City had a big smuggling case, not only offended the Datou Khan and the Great Sui of the Western Turks at the same time, not only did they have to break a large amount of money to eliminate the disaster, but they would no longer be able to do business in the Western Turks for several years, and they would definitely hate themselves and the An brothers and sisters, and they could not go to the East-Turks to retaliate against themselves, so the only thing they could do was to quietly tell Liu Jushi that they were plotting against him.

Wang Huaqiang wants this effect, by the wealthy businessmen of Guzang to report Liu Jushi, and he happens to be in the Turks, it seems logical, the rest is to wait for the eldest grandson Sheng to come to the door to ask the master for guilt, and when he asks for someone from the Turks, and then take advantage of the secret business between Princess Dayi and the An Sui family, let Dye Gan break through the adultery and shake out this big killer.

Wang Huaqiang rode on the horse, thinking about the details of his entire plan over and over again, Changsun Sheng was mixed in the cart, it was not so easy to be recognized, and after the transaction was over, how to let him blend into the Turks depended on Changsun Sheng's own changes.

Li Fan was also silent all the way, he rode a yellow horse, and walked side by side with Wang Huaqiang, but he kept thinking about how to turn around and explain to Cao Zhen why he didn't bring his 10,000 catties of iron ore after the handover at the border for a while.

After traveling more than 30 miles, the convoy finally arrived at the southwest of Guzang City before dawn and left Tianti Mountain.

In the next period of time, the caravan set off from Guzang, day and night, and the pass checkpoints along the way had already been set up by Li Fan and others, and they were basically released all the way, and some muttered a few words The officers who were really long and the cars looked heavy were also stuffed with an extra money bag by Li Fan with a smile.

Wang Huaqiang had only been to Guzang on the Silk Road before, and had not been to the Silk Road in the west, which was full of Haohan sand sea, fortunately Li Fan had already prepared, and prepared a thousand camels in the southwest of Guzang City, and from that night, these camels transferred goods, and the guards of the two families also followed the Luo team.

Li Fan was already familiar with this route, and along the way, he sent people out early to supply the Luo team with food and water for more than 1,000 people, and his guards also spread out far to the sides, alerting any possible attackers in the desert.

In this way, after coming out of Guzang, the convoy turned back to the northwest, bypassing Zhangye County, Jiuquan County and other big cities along the way, specifically looking for a desolate and remote no-man's land to pass through, after a long journey of 14 days, finally rushed to this thousand-mile business journey, came to Yangguan on the border.

It's October, and the desert has become less hot than usual, Wang Huaqiang feels okay along the way, he has also walked the Silk Road for two years, even in the Tengger Desert in the east of Guzang City, he has suffered a lot, but this time, it is relatively easy.

With a cheer from the scout in front: "The sun has arrived!" Some of the listless people in the caravan came to the spirit one by one, and Wang Huaqiang was also in good spirits, holding a canopy with his hands, looking at Xiongguan in the distance.

Yangguan, located in the southwest of Dunhuang County more than 70 miles on the antique beach, the antique beach is a sea of sand, after entering Yangguan, the caravan must pass through this Gobi desert, scattered here treasures and ancient money are countless, so the people in Dunhuang have "into the antique beach, empty-handed do not return" said.

And on the Dundun Mountain in the north of the antique beach, there is a majestic Xiongguan, sandwiched between the valleys, and the beacon towers on the surrounding hills are dotted around, and the Sui character flag flutters high on it.

From the current position of the people, there are still about ten miles away from Yangguan, and the sand beams are like the crest of the waves in the sea, standing on the Gobi Desert, a few miles away in the empty desert, you can see a group of caravans dressed in the distance, with camels, the number seems to be thousands, and hundreds of Sui cavalry, under the leadership of a heavily armed general, stand with this caravan.

Li Fan looked happy and said to Wang Huaqiang: "Brother Wei Chi, it must be Brother An Xian and Brother Cao Xian who are answering us, let's go over quickly." Then he caught the camel in his legs, and the camel flew on all fours, and galloped.

Wang Huaqiang rarely rides camels, and he was still a little uncomfortable at the beginning when he changed camel rides in Guzang City, but he has already mastered the trick in the past ten days, and the camel has a docile temperament, and he sits up very steadily, which is far easier to control than riding a horse, but after all, he is not as good as Li Fan who has crossed the sand sea for many years, and his ability to control the camel has already been perfected, and he can make it run with a camel between his legs, so he can only slowly drag it behind.

I saw Li Fan running over, and Cao Zhen wearing a helmet and An Xinggui, who was dressed as a merchant in the Western Regions, muttered for a while, and the three of them looked at themselves from time to time between words, Wang Huaqiang knew that they must be discussing the next action, and it was impossible for him to hear, so he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and slowly rode in front of the three, smiling, and bowed: "Brother An, Brother Cao, don't come unharmed." ”

When Cao Zhen saw Wang Huaqiang, she didn't return the salute, and snorted heavily: "Wei Chiqin, such a big business, you can go wrong, not only is it less than 200,000 catties, but it is also late, if it weren't for the big brother's risk to ignite the fire, this transaction would be yellow." ”

An Xinggui on the side also complained: "Brother Wei Chi, you must be thorough in business, and you can't change the things you agree with others." ”

Wang Huaqiang knew that Cao Zhen was still angry with him last time, and wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge, so he laughed: "Two, I'm really sorry, it's the first time I went shopping outside Guzang City, time is tight, and something went wrong in my unfamiliar place, and I won't be in the future." ”

The corners of Cao Zhen's mouth hooked, and the two mustaches on his lips moved: "Don't talk about it, let's hand it over on the spot now, from here to the various beacons in Yangguan, they are all replaced by our people, Wei Chiqin, after this batch of goods is handed over to Brother An, your people will go home." ”

Wang Huaqiang put away his smile and said coldly: "Cao Xingshou, this transaction is a matter between me and Miss An, in order to express respect for your Chamber of Commerce, I took over this business through your Chamber of Commerce, don't you think that there is no one present at the time of the transaction, doesn't this feel wrong?" ”
