There is a small fishing village on the north bank of the Meilinchu River near the sea, and the name of Rongbu is Haiqizi. The official records of Dayan call it Haishu, where the water is deep and the waves are quiet, and it has always been a place for ships to take shelter from the wind. Hailizi has always been a fishing village controlled by the Rongbu, and since the fall of the far northeastern coast, the Rongbu have built a port here. However, after the Great Yan Naval Division blocked the channel, few large fleets arrived here. Less does not mean no, smuggling is a profiteering industry in any era, which makes some people take risks and bring the materials they need to the Rong Department. Although it is a lot less than before, it is better than nothing. Therefore, the commercial tax department set up by the Rong Department in Hailizi is still more polite to the merchants who come to Hailizi.

A merchant ship full of goods slowly approached the port trestle, and after the merchant ship stopped, the gangplank was lowered, and a young man stepped down from the ship, looking dressed as from Dayan. The steward of the Department of Commerce and Taxation greeted him, and he looked at the young man and asked suspiciously: "Mr. is from Dayan, why haven't I seen you?" ”

At this time, the captain of the boat ran over and greeted the steward with a smile.

"Hello Butler Abulun, wow, do you still know Lao Cui?"

"Oops, isn't this Boss Cui? What good things did you bring this time? ”

"Hey, cloth, silk, spices, and iron."

"Well, these are all we need. I wonder if there is any ordnance? ”

"That's no, it's too strict now, and once you get caught, you'll ...... with those easts."

Boss Cui made a head-cutting gesture on his neck with his hand.

"Hehe, it's okay, just dismantle the ordnance next time you come. Come, give me the manifest, and I'll do the paperwork for you. Who is this? ”

"This is our young owner, this time I came to see if you have any big business here."

"Oops. It turned out to be a young owner, disrespectful and disrespectful. There is a big business, as long as you can get it, I guarantee you can make a lot of money. ”

"Hehe, Lord Steward, I don't know what you all need?"

"That's too much. What is needed most now is Dayan's ordnance, as long as you can transport it, as much as you want, the price is as you like, and you will never bargain. ”

"What do you want so much ordnance for?"

"Alas, in the battle of Meilin Chu River, we suffered heavy losses and urgently need to be replenished. Especially thunderbolts and large ballistas, if the young owner has this ability. That's definitely going to make a lot of money. ”

"Well, I'd like to figure it out. By the way, Lord Steward, I want to go around and see if it's okay. ”

"Okay, I'll get you a paperwork, and I'll give you a waist card, and you can go around and have a look." This place is not far from our Dongrong country, do you want many owners to go there to see? ”

"You have a national capital?"

"Of course, we have established a country in Dongrong. Don't you know? Also, Dayan does not recognize us. Hehe. Whatever. Whether I admit that we have also established a country, look at the full moon golden wolf flag, I like it when I look at it. Young owners, we welcome people like you who are willing to do business with us. What we have in Dongrong is money, and how many goods are sent here by the young owner. Definitely more than you can ship elsewhere. ”

This young owner was disguised by Niu Tianci, in order to conduct a field survey to see if there was a suitable place to land. Niu Tianci took the paperwork and the waist card and greeted Lao Cui.

"Urging heads. Young Master Ben goes shopping, you unload the goods. Let's see if there's anything we need, and I'll be back in five days. ”

"Come back early."

Tianci nodded and led Zhao Zilong, Qin Suo, and Niu Zhong to get on their horses and go. The steward turned to Lao Cui and said, "Boss Cui, don't worry, your young owner must have gone to the Great Khan City, and no one will be embarrassed by him with the paperwork and waist card I opened." ”

The four of them turned onto the road but did not go to the Great Khan City, the capital of Dongrong State, but walked all the way along the coastline, and after carefully looking at the terrain, Tianci chose the landing site in Hailizi. It is too suitable for the rapid deployment of the brigade of men and horses, as long as the entire sea is quickly controlled, the team of men and horses and equipment can be transported in place, it is extremely convenient to attack the Great Khan City from here, and as long as you can hold the hill in front, the advance and retreat are guaranteed.

Tianci marked the map with satisfaction, and led Zhao Zilong and them to the Great Khan City, the capital of Dongrong State. The Great Khan City, formerly known as Jingyuan City, was the largest city on the far northeast coast, and after the Rong Department captured the north bank, it was changed to the Great Khan City as the capital of Dongrong State.

The closer you get to the Great Khan, the more people there are on the road. Tianci took a closer look at most of these Rong tribes and other tribesmen, and looking at their elated appearance, as well as the brand-new clothes on their bodies, he could guess that today must be an important festival for the Rong tribe. Tianci wanted to ask the people on the road what day it was today, but he didn't expect that the Rong tribesmen looked at Tianci and the others, turned around and beat their horses without saying a word. Only then did Tianci notice that the people on the road were avoiding the four of them, and some even threw cold glances at them.

It seems that the Great Yan people are not welcome here, and Tianci believes that if the four of them were not armed and put the waist card in a conspicuous place, these tribesmen might have pounced and killed the four of them.

Thinking of this, God gave Zhao Zilong a look, and the four of them rushed to the Great Khan City together. In order to prevent mistakes, Tianci left Chiyan in the camp and only rode an ordinary horse. When the four of them saw the outline of the Great Khan City from afar, they were attracted by the grand scene on the grass outside the city.

"The Sky Wolf Festival turned out to be the most important annual festival of the Rong Department, the Sky Wolf Festival. No wonder these people are wearing new clothes. Zilong, let's go join in the fun, Qin Suo and Niu Zhong follow closely and don't get separated. ”

When the four of them came to the edge of the grand event, they were stopped by a group of Rongbu cavalry, and pointed a scimitar at the four of them. A centurion said loudly, "Yan Guoren, what are you doing here?" Who brought you here? ”

"I'm a merchant, and my cargo ship is unloading in the sea, so I'll take a look here first, this is the paperwork."

The fluent Rongbu language made these cavalrymen relax their vigilance a little, and the centurion took the paperwork and looked at it and said, "Oh, it turned out to be the young owner of the Cui family. Then you are our friend, and we welcome friends. Don't lose this waist card one by one, just give it to the nearby sentry when you leave. Don't clash with the people here, I won't say the reason, you know. ”

Tianci arched his hand at him in understanding, and the four of them walked towards the venue.

The annual Heavenly Wolf Festival is the most important festival in Rongbu. During this festival, tribesmen gather for horse racing, wrestling, archery, and exchanging daily goods with caravans from afar. Men and women in love will also determine their relationship with each other on this day, and this day is also the day when the Great Khan of Rongbu chooses warriors. Looking at the young men of the Rong Department who were rushing to the arena with bows and arrows on their backs and scimitars, Tianci decided to go over to see the excitement.

When they came to the outside of the playing field, they saw groups of ragged people tied together with ropes for the Rong tribesmen to choose. I watched the Rong tribesmen break open the mouths of those people like they were buying livestock, pinching their arms and legs. Tianci and others knew that this was buying and selling slaves.

Although those people were dirty, they knew that most of them were Yan people, and they must be the people of Dayan who lived on the north bank of the Meilinchu River, and when their homeland was invaded, they also changed from a dignified person to a slave who could be bought and sold at will.

Niu Tianci and the four found that there were no old people among the people of the Great Swallow who were bought and sold separately according to the young and strong, women and children. Regardless of the question, it can be seen that those old people were either killed or tortured to death. Looking at the desperate eyes and mournful cries of these big swallow people who were forcibly separated from their families, the anger in the hearts of the four of them could not be suppressed.

The heavens urged the horse to go over to a fat-headed, big-eared slave trader and said, "I want all of them." ”

The slave trader couldn't help but be full of joy when he saw Niu Tianci's gorgeous clothes and the waist tag that Tianci wanted to see.

"My friend. You mean you want all these wooden towers? ”

"Yes."

"Oh, you're such a generous person, I wonder what you're doing with so many wooden towers?"

"I'm a businessman, and I'm going to set up a merchant in Hailizi, but it's not okay if there are fewer people."

"It turns out that you are a big businessman, may I ask your friend's surname."

"This is the young owner of our Cui family's firm." Zhao Zilong hurriedly said.

"Oh, it turned out to be the young owner of the Cui family, disrespectful and disrespectful. I am good friends with the Abulon steward. He often mentioned to me that the Cui family was our friend of Dongrong. Young owners, you can choose these wooden towers at will. You see, although these young men are thinner now, as long as they are fed, they can do anything. Look at these female wooden towers again, there are really a few of them that look good, dress up well, and warm the bed for the young owner's house. How about less owners. I'm looking good, right? ”

"Well, don't talk nonsense, I want it all. How about I trade with you for gold? ”

"Sirius God, you are too generous, young owner, and it is too pleasant to do business with you, so let's hand it over."

More than 200 slaves were all bought by God. God gave him a deposit to help the slave traders send him to the sea, and he had to send him to the sea. Of course, the slave trader agreed, it was really lucky to meet such a bold big buyer, and the slave trader said to Tianci: "Shaodong, I still have a batch of wooden towers in my hand, all of which are captured Yan Jun, if you want me to give you half the price." ”

"Yes, as much as you want."

"Okay, you wait."

When Tianci waited for the slave traders to transport people here, he told Zilong and them to buy some food to distribute to these slaves, and the slaves knew that they had been bought by a Yan countryman, and their hearts finally settled down.

Zhao Zilong, Qin Suo and Niu Zhong bought a lot of meat and fragrant milk tea and distributed them to the slaves. The slaves, who had been hungry for many days, gave food to the women and children after thanking the four gods, and the young men consciously waited behind.

"Everyone can eat with confidence, they all have them, and I will buy them if they are not enough." Eat, eat slowly, don't choke. ”

Zhao Zilong, Qin Suo and Niu Zhong kept comforting everyone while handing out food. The slaves couldn't help but cry when they heard their native dialect.

"Damn the wooden tower, crying here, shut up for me. If I disturb the high priest's sacrifice to the god wolf, I will cut you all down. ”

An arrogant voice sounded, and Niu Tianci looked back and saw that it was a thousand-commander. Looking at his iron armor and the golden tassels decorated on his helmet, you can know that he is a golden wolf guard. After Tianci hurriedly waved his hand to stop the crying of the slaves, he turned to the commander and said, "This general, below is the young owner of the Cui family, I have bought all these wooden towers, and I will take care of them so as not to cause trouble." And, when another batch of wooden towers comes, we'll go. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be someone from the Cui family, that's okay, but don't let them cry, disrupt the sacrificial ceremony, all these wooden towers will be killed and sacrificed to the Heavenly Wolf God, and even you will be punished." Leave them in check. ”

"I see, we'll leave in a minute."

After saying that, Tianci stopped paying attention to the commander, and he turned around and told the slaves to be patient for a while, and wait until they left here. The slaves all understood this truth, agreed in unison, and kept saying, "Thank you, Shaodong." ”

The slave traders brought more than 300 people, and Tianci saw that these people were all wounded Yan army soldiers, their military uniforms were broken, and the wounds on their bodies were still bleeding, and many people needed the support of others to act. None of these people were seriously wounded, and Tianci believed that those seriously wounded soldiers were afraid that they would be beheaded on the battlefield, and the Rong troops did not have the habit of treating the enemy's wounded soldiers who were dying.

Although these soldiers were embarrassed, their heads were still up, their waists were still straight, and their eyes were full of hatred. Tianci nodded, and he was very satisfied with the performance of these soldiers.

"You are all my servants from now on, don't say anything, hurry up and eat to recover your strength, and I will take you out of here in a while."

Tianci said loudly to the soldiers, and the soldiers looked at Niu Tianci with a sense of trust in their eyes. They sensed a hint of familiarity in the heavenly gifts, as if they were facing their general. The soldiers lined up silently, waiting to receive the lost food assigned to them.

"Giggles, this person is so stupid, buying so many wooden towers and giving them food so well, he really has money and nowhere to spend, do you think he is stupid?"

"Hee-hee-hee, silly, so stupid. But it looks good-looking, not really stupid. ”

The one who spoke was one of the women in a group of women under the protection of the golden wolf's personal guard, and she was the one who just said that she was stupid. Tianci turned around and saw that this woman was dressed in luxurious clothes and ornaments, riding on a snow-white horse with a golden saddle. The woman's face is like a full moon, her skin is like condensed fat, her eyebrows are like distant daisies, and her eyes are like a phoenix. A smile is as striking as a blooming cuckoo.

"Hahaha, fool, what do you think I'm doing?"

"Shaodong, hurry up and salute, this is our sister of the Great Khan of Dongrong, Princess Sumeduo, hurry up and salute." The slave trader whispered a reminder of the cow.

"Hehe, it turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I met the princess in Xia Cui Ci." (To be continued.) )
