Wang Xiang originally only planned to establish a trade market in Xizhou, but later he had a whim to create a Tang Chamber of Commerce, which was several times larger than the trade market, and set up in the middle of Chinatown on the shore of Peacock Lake.

The commodity trade of Datang and Gaochang is all carried out in the Datang Chamber of Commerce, and Datang officials and Xizhou officials serve as the presidents and vice presidents of the Chamber of Commerce respectively, and the Chamber of Commerce also has a special account room and quality inspection personnel, so as to avoid many unnecessary disputes.

Chinatown is also Wang Xiang out, because Xizhou has always implemented the policy of preferential treatment of Tang merchants, so there are many Tang people settled in Xizhou, and then think of the market outside Huaiyuan Town, he suddenly had the idea of establishing a Chinatown, Lao Liu mutton soup noodles must be very popular if there is a shop in Xizhou.

This idea was absolutely supported by Ju Wenya, who was bent on letting the people of Gaochang live a prosperous and prosperous life like the people of the Tang Dynasty.

With Ju Wentai's support, Wang Xiang immediately asked people to clear out a wide street on the shore of Peacock Lake, and build shops on both sides of the street, which could be rented to Tang merchants or to Tang people like Lao Liu.

"With the strength of the Tang Dynasty, it is completely easy to conquer the countries of the Western Regions, why bother so much?"

Chu Niang has been helping Wang Xiang these days, and finally couldn't help but ask the question in her heart, she had the opportunity to follow Tang Jun back to Chang'an and then take the opportunity to escape, but after following Wang Xiang for a few days, she decided to stay here temporarily.

Hearing Chu Niang's words, Wang Xiang smiled, this is not the first time that someone has asked him this question.

"I have never believed that force is the fundamental solution to problems, and the Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette. His Majesty is the King of Wisdom. Walk the king's way. And not overbearing. ”

Chu Niang asked curiously: "What is domineering, what is kingship?" ”

"Domineering is the way of conquest, it is fast, you can win a temporary victory, but it is not a long-term solution, and when the opponent is full-fledged, it will naturally fight back. The royal road is the way of integration, although the effect is slow, it can subtly integrate the other party, and in the long run, the two are not divided between you and me. Since there is no distinction between you and me, why is there any chaos? ”

Chu Niang nodded thoughtfully: "So you built Chinatown here?" ”

Wang Xiang smiled noncommittally.

"Deputy Envoy Wang!"

Hearing this voice, Wang Xiang showed a helpless wry smile on his face.

Turning around, a heroic woman in military uniform ran over like a gust of wind.

"Miss Begonia, aren't you going back to Chang'an?" Wang Xiang also learned a few days ago that Begonia secretly stayed in Xizhou, just to learn martial arts from Tie Dan, although he didn't have a good impression of Hou Junji, but Begonia and Hou Junji are completely different, and Wang Xiang, a lively girl who is enthusiastic and cheerful and has no scheming, still likes it very much.

After listening to Wang Xiang's question, Haitang flicked his ponytail and raised his head slightly: "I won't go back, I still have to practice martial arts with Tie Dan, my father and Uncle Cheng, plus General Fang and Captain Duma, can't beat that Tulu, Tie Dan can defeat him alone, it must be very powerful." I want to learn the most powerful martial arts from him. ”

Looking at Begonia's serious appearance, Wang Xiang smiled and said, "What are girls doing when they learn such good martial arts." ”

"I want to be a general like my father!"

"Aren't you afraid that your father will send someone to arrest you back?" Wang Xiang shook his head and chuckled.

"Don't be afraid, Tie Dan said that if someone comes to arrest me, he will help me drive people away." Begonia grinned: "Sister Akinu helped me say it." I think Iron Egg seems to listen to Sister Akinu. ”

Aqinu is actually not much older than Begonia, but Aqinu's martial arts are good and she takes care of Begonia, so Begonia calls her sister, perhaps because both of them like to practice martial arts, although Aqinu and Begonia have only met for a few days, they have a good relationship.

"Why do you have time to come to me today, and you don't practice martial arts with Tie Dan?"

"Oops, I forgot, it's King Gaochang who wants to find you." Begonia stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.

Ju Wenya looking for me? Wang Xiang was a little puzzled, in fact, he didn't have much contact with the new King Gaochang, and anything before was discussed between the eldest grandson Wuji and Ju Wenya.

Came to the Xizhou Mansion with doubts, Ju Wenya sat on the throne with a smile on her face, and Ju Yiya sat next to him, with a face towel on her face, and when she saw Wang Xiang coming in, she hurriedly lowered her head, her eyes flickered and seemed to be a little nervous.

Below sat Mora and the other generals of the Western States, apparently discussing something.

"I wonder what Your Majesty is looking for me?" Wang Xiang saluted Ju Wenya, no matter what, Ju Wenya is now the king of Gaochang, and the etiquette that should be there is still indispensable.

Ju Wenya said with a smile: "Deputy Envoy Wang, please take a seat, I invited Deputy Envoy Wang to come over today to discuss the marriage of my daughter." ”

Ju Yiya is going to get married? Wang Xiang was about to find a place to sit down, and when he heard Ju Wenya's words, he was suddenly a little surprised, and wondered in his heart, it turned out that he was discussing marriage, but Princess Gaochang's marriage asked me to discuss what's going on? I don't know why, when I heard the news that Ju Yiya was going to get married, Wang Xiang still felt a little lost, and the expression on his face looked a little unnatural.

If it is said that Ju Yiya is not moved by such a beautiful woman in the Western Regions, it must be fake, and Ju Yiya is still the only person who knows Wang Xiang's secret, and the relationship between the two has also undergone subtle changes along the way, but I didn't expect Ju Yiya to suddenly get married.

Ju Wenya saw Wang Xiang's doubts and said: "Our custom in Gaochang is that the princess's wedding is a golden knife as a token. ”

Golden knives? Wang Xiang finally remembered that the golden knife that Ju Yiya bet on him was still in the warehouse, and after arriving in Xizhou, Ju Yiya didn't take the initiative to find herself to get the golden knife back, and she forgot about the golden knife as soon as there were many things, it turned out that the golden knife was a token of the princess's wedding, no wonder her expression was so strange when she staked the golden knife to herself before, and she asked herself to keep it secret.

But looking at the current appearance, Ju Wenya seems to know that the golden knife is here.

"Oh, yes, yes, it's the princess who has temporarily stored the golden knife with me, so I'll go and get it."

What is temporarily stored, it is obviously mortgaged to you after losing playing cards. Ju Yiya's pretty face hidden behind the face towel turned red for a while.

Ju Wenya raised her hand and smiled: "No hurry." ”

Not in a hurry? Wang Xiang didn't understand the meaning of Ju Wenya again.

"I have already asked the priests of Xizhou to see the date, and after half a month it will be an auspicious day, and the marriage between the deputy envoy of the king and my daughter will be set for half a month later, and the golden sword will be taken out again when the time comes."

Ay? Wang Xiang thought he had misheard.

"What did Your Majesty just say?"

"I said that the priests of Xizhou have seen the days, and after half a moon it will be an auspicious day."

"It's not this, who did Your Majesty just say about the princess's marriage?" (To be continued......)
