Chapter 0594. Turn the target, Mecca!
It is said that the princess has a precious daughter, and now Wu Yuanqing really gave an actual price, and paid a total of 100,000 dinar gold coins for Hou Jie's promise that he didn't know where Princess Laoshizi was. [ads:This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]
Even Li Que didn't expect that Wu Yuanqing would really take it out, of course, it was impossible for this fat man to hide the gold coins in the meat, and there were a lot of boxes for 100,000 dinars, which were heavier than Wu Yuanqing, but he took out the seal gold pen, wrote down a check, and sent someone to sneak out of the city to run to a dozen nearby cities, and on the third day, ten small boxes were neatly placed on the table.
The entertainment effect of the Third Street is really unprecedented, relying on his reputation, Wu Yuanqing forcibly lent 100,000 dinars of gold coins, which almost emptied the vaults of more than 100 merchants in several cities along the Silk Road, including Tai Xifeng, and was almost worth one-third of Wu Yuanqing's property.
With these IOU checks, these merchants who traveled long distances to Fujian could easily exchange silk, gold, silver and copper of equal value from Wu Yuanqing Commercial Bank, consumption, and carrying money and goods in ancient times was also a heavy carrying work, and there were many crises, with the credit of Wu Yuanqing and the King of Fujian, and also avoided the pain of running around with silver, many merchants can be said to have made a lot of money, no wonder the borrowing was so smooth.
But Wu Yuanqing needs to pay for all of this, if he hadn't almost thrown his life in the salt desert to come here, if it wasn't for Yu Leye's obsession, he would have to have an imperial princess to match the name of the first wind and moon field in Fujian, and he would not have agreed to kill Wu Yuanqing. Li Que, who had a chubby face, really couldn't bear to look at it, looking at it as a small box, each with 10,000 gold coins, Wu Yuanqing trembled and almost squeezed out a few words from the root of his teeth.
"Little monkey, I hope the princess you said can be tied up is worth this money, otherwise, otherwise, ......"
"Don't worry, when did the little brother pit you, that princess, it's definitely worth the price!" Hou Jie still had a calm face and replied easily.
Seriously, Hou Jie really didn't deceive Wu Yuanqing, this mission they really went to get the Byzantine princess Anna, and at the talks with Fujian, Anna opened her mouth to propose an annual tribute of 50,000 gold coins, and Anna's worth was higher than 100,000 dinars.
The only question is whether Wu Yuanqing dares to take her back to Third Street to sell herself if he robs Anna from Galatai Fort, that is two words.
With the servants to move away a heavy small box, watching Hou Jie leave, even Li Que temporarily forgot her duties, and looked at the trembling Wu Yuanqing full of sympathy and pity.
It wasn't until the incredulous Arabic shouts from the side room came back to their senses.
"Allah, this, this is unbelievable, Lord, you have really appeared!"
The two great imam Jafar elders who have been serious and solemn for the past two days, Elder Nizar, are all staring at the dim old eyes of this time, and they are fishing around in ten boxes in disbelief, and the hands are full of golden light, until Hou Jie on the side is a little unbearable, and he coughed lightly and reminded: "Elder, these are the will of Allah, go and do what you should do." ”
"Yes, yes, Brother Hou, you are right, everything is for the justice of Allah, it is the old man who is like it." The change of face was really instantaneous, and he immediately regained his sanctimony just now, and the two elders put down the gold coin and patted each of them on the shoulder, and then performed an Islamic ritual quite sincerely.
"Brother Hou, we are still grateful to you, you are our Shiite best friend."
"No, it is the responsibility of every true Muslim to overthrow the false caliph and put the blood of the great sage Ali on the throne of the caliph, so that the glory of the Lord can come to the earth, and the two elders need not thank you." Bow down. Hou Jie said with compassion on his face.
This time, the two Arab bearded men were stunned again, but they didn't say anything more. After arching his hand, he waved his hand to the few sect juniors who were looking stupid behind him, and after putting on the big cloak, the group hurriedly walked out of the mansion of the rich Persian merchant who had been staying for several days with the box, and disappeared in the earthy yellow house of Ctesiphon in a blink of an eye.
"Just left, Lao Tzu's 100,000 gold coins, just took it away?"
On the balcony, looking at the figure of the group moving away, Wu Yuanqing really raised his chest as if he was watching his little wife being carried to bed by other men, crying for his father and calling his mother, and Hou Jie, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but smile with him.
"Brother Wu relaxes, I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf!"
Before he finished speaking, a pair of hands had already been slammed on his collar, and the next moment the cold silver mask was directly in front of Hou Jie, even through the mask, looking at Li Que's black eyes shining with anger, Hou Jie could still feel her monstrous anger.
"Zhonghujun, do you owe us an explanation?"
These days are busy raising funds for Hou Jie and running around, in the general direction, Li Que did not disobey Hou Jie, the leader of the team, but it does not mean that she understands, after enduring it for a few days, this woman's anger has been suppressed at a critical point, and half of her body was lifted up by the collar, and Hou Jie was suddenly full of helplessness.
"They are Shiite elders, and when I was in Xinhan Valley, I learned about their unique characteristics in the process of compiling information, which is that they must sit in an open-top car, and when I met them on the street that day, I deliberately gave a speech in favor of Shiites in the street, attracting their attention, and helping the Shiites here to raise funds in exchange for a pilgrimage to Mecca."
"Give these bearded men 100,000 pieces of gold, and make the city stormy for several days, so that we can be afraid of you, just to make a pilgrimage to Mecca?"
The voice barely maintained calm, the anger was already obvious, Li Que calmly took Hou Jie's collar and leaned forward again, half a head taller than Hou Jie, she easily lifted the dignified Khorasan Demon King over the balcony.
It's impossible to kill him, throwing it into the pool below to make this bastard comfortable is probably a must, seeing that Li Que's eyes were a little stiff and cold, these dignified Punjabi guards finally lost their composure, Ling shouted sadly in mid-air: "Wait, I haven't finished talking yet!" ”
"Say!"
Full of helplessness, Hou Jie hurriedly shouted: "After the pilgrimage to Mecca, I will be able to take the identity of the Shiite Great Mullah, and then I can borrow the port of the Arab Empire in Cyprus and take a ship to Byzantium, without going to the war-torn Asia Minor, which can save a lot of time!" ”
Wu Yuanqing and Li Que suddenly lifted Hou Jie for a few seconds, and Li Que snorted coldly and threw him back.
"What an expensive ticket!"
Seeing Li Que turn around and go back arrogantly, Hou Jie couldn't help but wipe his cold sweat and sighed: "What a strong woman, I really don't know that Li Jie's guy found this substitute there, it's too similar, it's too similar to her......"
didn't wait for Hou Jie to finish sighing, but he couldn't help but have a pair of fat slaps on his collar, his eyes were blood-red, and Wu Yuanqing was also murderous and squeezed his fat face up: "What about the princess I want?" 100,000 gold coins! What did Lao Tzu do in Byzantium? ”
More cold sweat broke out on Hou Jie's head......
On this day, the chaotic Tessifon was surprisingly calm, and the city gate was opened again, allowing the Fujian expeditionary team to leave the city smoothly.
This time, the salt sellers' attire changed dramatically, and the group of fifteen people completely transformed into devout Muslims, and left the city in a caravan with Islamic symbols such as the stars, moons, and suns, which from a distance seemed to be indistinguishable from other Persian pilgrims to Mecca.
But looking closely, you can still see the difference, despite the veil, Li Que took the lead, and the silver mask still looked nondescript.
Under the guidance of the fifty-year-old mercenary in gorgeous armor, the few remaining mercenaries guarded the team in a fan-shape, and Paul and his only remaining stupid apprentice stayed in the carriage with an uncomfortable face, piled up with Wu Yuanqing, leaning against the door of the car, the blind old man and the blind old man were still leaning there half-dead, and Hou Jie lost his majesty and rode a horse to the side.
But before he could walk a few miles, suddenly the blind old man raised his right hand coldly and drank violently: "Stop!" ”
"What's wrong again?" Li Quanman was impatient to come back, but he didn't want Hou Jie to ignore her, but instead helped the blind old man get out of the car with a serious face, and accompanied him to lie on the side on the avenue, listening to his ears for a long time, the blind old man stood up abruptly again, and said in a dull voice: "Ten miles southwest, at least five thousand cavalry, heavy cavalry!" Two pillars of incense time here. ”
Without any doubts, Hou Jie directly waved his hand and ordered: "Push the carriage off the road and avoid it for the time being!" ”
The carriage was covered with a meadow, and Hou Jie and the others were also hiding in the grass, looking at the road through a pair of dark eyes in the hole in the silver mask, but Li Que was still full of suspicion.
It was just the time of the two pillars of incense, the rumbling hooves of the horses even shook the earth, the men and horses were all dressed in armor, and the heavy Persian ironclad cavalry trotted all the way with at least two meters long riding spears, and the long helmet armor curtain even covered the face, only revealing a pair of eyes, and even the war horse was covered by heavy horse armor.
The long banner of Islam and some standard numbers that Li Que couldn't understand were erected high, and the cavalry team ran a full stick of incense before the time passed, and after waiting for a long time, Li Que ran to the road in disbelief and looked at the end of the cavalry team and exclaimed: "I saw it just now, the bearded man who followed the cavalry commander, yes, what is that Elder Jafar!" ”
"You gave them 100,000 gold coins, what kind of agreement did you reach?" Filled with anger, Li Que ran back again, but Hou Jie shrugged innocently: "I only promised to provide gold coins to buy ferry tickets, how do they spend it, how do I know?" ”
"You!"
Looking at Hou Jie's innocent appearance, Li Que's cheeks suddenly puffed out in anger, and the silver mask was propped up......
