Chapter 620: Eighteen people are enough

When Li Xian, Ye Huaisleeve, and Zhang Xiaodi stood by the Weishui for a while, about to return to the big tent, they suddenly saw a horn sound from the north side of the naval division's camp, which was a warning, and there were immediately four or five centipede speedboats on the naval division's side going upstream, and the speed quickly disappeared behind the big ship in a blink of an eye.

Li Xian looked over there and frowned slightly, the sound of the horn was not urgent, obviously it was not an enemy attack, if it was, Chen Qi'er and Lai Yuan would never just send a few centipede clippers to go up to check, he walked in the direction of the sailor. Ye Huaisleeve followed behind him and whispered: "It shouldn't be a big deal, maybe a fishing boat accidentally broke in." ”

Li Xian nodded, and before he reached the camp, Lai Yuan walked over with a few personal soldiers.

"The Lord"

Lai Yuan bowed and saluted, and then explained: "A lot of huge wooden rows were put down from the upstream, and they almost collided with the big ships on the periphery. Merchants who trafficked timber from the north generally used this method to transport the giant logs, tying the timber together and going down the river like a big ship, which was convenient and labor-saving. ”

"Such a big deal, is it a businessman of that family?"

"It should be a samurai"

Lai Yuan said: "The vast majority of the timber business in the north is in the hands of the samurai, since Li Tang established the country, the samurai family has been designated as the imperial merchant power is much greater, and the cost of transporting such a large number of giant trees is very huge, and ordinary people and merchants can't afford it." In this way, the teachers mobilized the crowd, and estimated that the giant trees that were put down by the river were all sent to Chang'an City to build Yong'an Palace. ”

"Samurai?"

Li Xian's heart tightened slightly, and he subconsciously asked, "Samurai Tong?" ”

Lai Yuan said: "I didn't expect the lord to hear about this person, when this person was in Huaiyuan Town, Liaoxi, he was an official under Li Yuan, and then after the defeat of Liaodong, he returned to his home to continue to do business, and then Li Yuan raised troops, he donated a lot of money and grain, and the identity of this imperial merchant was specially rewarded by Li Yuan." With this identity, the samurai's business is getting bigger and bigger. Construction is being carried out in Chang'an City, and the wood should be transported by the samurai. ”

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan thanked the original generosity of the martial arts, and named the warrior Tong as the prince of Taiyuan County, and was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, which was highly valued. The construction of Yong'an Palace was presided over by the samurai wok, and Yu Wenkai was the master craftsman. ”

"It's a capable one."

Li Xian commented.

Speaking of which, the development of the martial arts family is indeed a miracle, and the status of merchants in the Great Sui Dynasty can be described as extremely low. Unless it is a desperate person, it will choose to do business. But anyone who still has a bite to eat would rather live on a few acres of thin fields than surrender his status to business, even if he makes a fortune, he is still inferior to a farmer. And it is precisely because the samurai woks have unparalleled political vision and see that Li Yuan will achieve great things sooner or later, so he supports his family property.

Born as a businessman, he became the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of Datang in just a few years. Such a history is also admirable in any case, and it can be said that he is also a masterpiece, and he has established a family with his own hands.

"Wu Shi Tong served in the Tang Dynasty, the eldest son Wu Yuanqing has also entered the office, and the second son Wu Yuanshuang is now the head of the martial arts shop. Speaking of which, the three fathers and sons of the Wu family are all very capable, and this time such a big gesture, I think it was Wu Yuanshuang who personally escorted it, after all, these timbers were used to build Yong'an Palace. ”

Lai Yuan explained seriously.

Li Xian nodded, and said in his heart that no matter how great this warrior's ability is, his daughter's ability is not as great. Today's day does seem to be a little unusual, first I met the famous eunuch in history, and now it is difficult to see that Wu Cao in advance? As soon as I thought of this, I was suddenly shocked in my heart, and finally knew that I always felt that something was wrong just now.

Feng Yuanyi is from Panzhou, and over there in Guangdong, why is the shepherd boy he met from near Chang'an? And Feng Yuanyi in history was a person who was born decades later, why did he appear so early? Could it be that after I arrived in this era, I changed not only some details, but even the time was messed up? If it is true that the character who should have appeared decades later appeared so early, then is that Wu Meiniang also an adult?

Thinking of this, Li Xian couldn't help but shudder.

"Bring the man to Lonely."

Li Xian gave an order and then turned around and left, but what he was thinking about was what he should do if he really met Wu Yue (Wu Meiniang)? Could it be that just because he knew that she was going to be the empress in the future, he killed her with a knife?

Not long after he walked back to the big tent and sat down, Chen Qi'er and Lai Yuan led a sturdy man with a dark face to the door. This man is extremely humble, his walking posture is slightly leaned over, and the smile on his face looks sincere and humble, but the femininity deliberately hidden between his eyebrows and eyes can still be seen if he looks closely.

"Xiaguan Wu Yuanshuang, meet Your Highness!"

As soon as Wu Yuanshuang entered the big tent, he immediately bowed and saluted, holding his hands in front of his chest and making a big gesture. He is also a famous person, and he is the only one in the world who does business as an official.

"Get up."

Li Xian glanced at him, and then couldn't help but smile. This Wu Yuanshuang is not tall, if compared to Li Xian, it can only reach his shoulders. He has a dark complexion, thick eyebrows, but a pair of small eyes, a collapsed nose, a big mouth, and a beard, if you don't look carefully, he looks like a bearded person.

Li Xian couldn't help but think, with his appearance like this, how beautiful can his sister Wu be on a date?

……

……

Wu Yuanshuang's eyebrows were full of joy when he left Li Xian's big tent, he thought that the matter of ramming into King Yan's warship would not be solved too easily. Who would have thought that the rumored fierce god Yan Wang, who had at least hundreds of thousands of lives in his hands, turned out to be a young man with a bit of bookish spirit. And just casually asked about his family's business and family, so he ordered to let him go, and sent a dozen centipede clippers and hundreds of elite soldiers to escort him along the road.

Although this place is less than seventy miles away from Chang'an City, there will naturally be no robbers in Gyeonggi City, and the martial arts are not afraid of any robbers, but how could King Yan take the initiative to show favor to him? Thinking that the samurai family was just a merchant who trafficked timber, and that in just a few years, it had become a veritable official family, Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and admired his father's original judgment of the warrior wok.

Although he didn't enter the ranks, his father was a scholar of the Ministry of Industry, and his eldest brother Wu Yuanqing served in the forbidden army, how could he not have heard of the vague identity of King Yan?

King Yan is so polite, what he values is naturally the current status of the martial artist.

After he returned to the fleet, he personally selected a few of the treasures he had collected and sent them to the Great Tent of King Yan, including many beautifully crafted Persian gold and silver vessels, several of which were extremely precious. This was originally meant to be dedicated to His Majesty, but Wu Yuanshuang took it out and dedicated it to Li Xian without feeling that there was anything wrong with it.

Although he had just returned to Chang'an, how could he not know about the major event that happened in Chang'an City. King Qin rebelled, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was assassinated, if the identity of Li Xian, the king of Yan, is true, then he will inevitably be valued by His Majesty, and the most disadvantaged is also a big man on the side of the town, and the martial arts will definitely not suffer a loss when they make friends with such a person.

And what he didn't know was that not long after he left Li Xian's big tent, there was a burst of extremely cheerful and unbridled laughter in the big tent, and none of the soldiers standing outside understood why the lord was so happy today.

"Nope!"

Li Xian laughed, leaning back and forth.

"No, no!"

He said these words to himself while laughing, and Ye Huaichong, who was standing beside him, looked a little stunned, and couldn't help but ask softly, "What's not?" ”

"Nothing!"

Li Xian waved his hand, laughing so hard that his stomach hurt a little.

Seeing Ye Huai's surprised face, he immediately explained: "The warrior woks don't have a daughter at all, don't you think this is something worth laughing at?" It didn't, it didn't! I was surprised to meet Feng Yuanyi before, and now I know how I can not be happy without Wu Cao. ”

"Samurai Wok is worth being happy without a daughter?"

Ye Huai asked puzzled.

"Providence!"

Li Xian smiled enough and then sighed: "God has given me big gifts one after another, how dare I be arrogant? The old nun once said that I have 260 years of respect, too little and too little, there should be no, there should be something, there should be something, if God favors me so much, if I don't leave a thousand years of prosperity and prosperity, how can I be worthy of God to open such a big bug to me? ”

Ye Huaisleeve was even more stupid, he knew that Li Xian often said something inexplicable, but today's words, she really didn't understand, she didn't understand a word.

……

……

Li Xian sat on the edge of the table and wrote a few big characters on rice paper with a pen.

Gotta fart

After he finished writing, he looked at these four words, the corners of his mouth pursed, and his smile looked a little silly. He was the only one in the big tent, Ye Huaichong and Xiao Di had already left, and Chen Qi'er and Lai Yuan also went back to the sailor's big boat. No one shared his feelings when he wrote these four words, but Li Xian still felt that it was worth being happy.

These four words were given to him by him, and it is okay to be sure, but it must not be overdone. Now that the situation is very good, there are few problems that he needs to face now. Although the rest of the few are really extremely difficult to deal with, since he started preparing early, he will not allow himself to make any mistakes.

Writing such four words in a wild cursive style will make people speechless in shock if they see it. Speaking of which, Li Xian is not an elegant person, but how can he look so arrogant with the cheesiness in these four words. Speaking of which, Li Xian always thinks of himself as a layman.

In his eyes, people who have a desire for power, women, and money are cheesy, and the stronger the desire, the more vulgar they are.

"Vulgar!"

Li Xian whispered two words to himself, and then crumpled the rice paper into a ball and threw it aside. He sat down in a chair and began to think carefully about how he would deal with entering Chang'an City tomorrow and seeing Li Yuan. Speaking of which, although he had already thought about what kind of posture he would appear in front of Li Yuan, for dealing with the old fox who had calculated other people's lives, the slightest carelessness would reveal his feet.

It has come to the present, and Li Xian will never allow any more errands.

"Lord!"

Someone outside the door said softly: "The people of the Sword Guard Camp have already been picked out, do you want to explain a few words?" ”

It was Xie Yingdeng's voice, Li Xian thought for a while and said: "Sixty people seem to be a little more, choose one more carefully from these sixty people, and only bring eighteen people into the city." ”

"Cold is also counted as one."

He added.

Xie Yingdeng, who was outside the door, was stunned, and his face became a little ugly: "Only bring eighteen people into the city?" ”

"Eighteen fine riders, enough!"
