Lin Dangfeng saw that Li Chongjiu didn't say what the opportunity was, so he meant to attack Yi County, so he didn't ask anymore.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu deduced that things were going very smoothly, and immediately said: "Shopkeeper Lin, if it weren't for your help this time, I wouldn't have a clue about attacking Yi County." ”

Lin Dangfeng laughed and said, "Taishou, what did you say, we didn't have a friendship once or twice." ”

"Yes, it's not a friendship once or twice," Li Chongjiu thought for a while, had a plan in his heart, and asked, "Which counties are your Lin Family Chamber of Commerce mainly doing business now?" ”

Lin Dangfeng listened to Li Chongjiu's inquiry, and said: "It turned out that it was mainly Yanmen, Taiyuan, and Shangdang three counties, and occasionally walked up to the valley and Zhuo County, mainly out of the grassland to trade with the Xi people, and the farthest time was to Mobei, after the vast Gobi, after coming back, the caravan was lost in half because of the horse thieves, and the wind and sand were lost, and they will not leave in the future." ”

"But after Yanmen was plundered by the Turks, Liu Wuzhou took advantage of Mayi, and now the business of the three counties of Yanmen is not easy to do, not to mention the Yanmen County out of the customs to Huaihuang Town, where there are Hu people now, Liu Wuzhou's cavalry, easy to be plundered, now to get out of the fortress, we mainly go out of Shanggu, Zhuo County, to Yuyi Town to find Xi people to trade, or directly unload in Yuyi Town, hand over to local sellers."

After listening to Li Chongjiu's inquiry, Lin Dangfeng said 1510. Li Chongjiu nodded, the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce used to be the most powerful chamber of commerce that traded with the Xi people. They opened a five-bay two-storey shop in Huaihuang Town, specializing in selling tea bricks, brocades, medicinal herbs, needles and threads from the Central Plains, and at the same time buying horses and raw hides from herdsmen and selling them to the mainland. Now all the ministries on the grassland, many herdsmen, and herdsmen have heard of the name of the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce.

Li Chongjiu said in his heart that if the head of the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce continued like this, maybe one day he would become the great Shengkui of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in the future. At the moment, it depends on Lin Dangfeng's ability and whether he is willing to support. Talking about business matters, Li Chongjiu unconsciously talked a little more, although he was not in this industry in the past, but in terms of management, logistics, and cost utilization, there is always a place for business to be bypassed.

Li Chongjiu talked casually, but he could always poke at Lin Dangfeng's key point, and occasionally Lin Dangfeng could not solve some business difficulties, Li Chongjiu said casually, which often made him open his house. Lin Dangfeng couldn't wait to write down every sentence of Li Chongjiu with pen and paper.

Lin Dangfeng was extremely convincing to Li Chongjiu, and said: "Taishou, it's good that you don't do business, otherwise we will all have no food." ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and asked again: "Joke, my knowledge is just talk on paper, where is the experience of the shopkeeper Lin over the years." ”

Lin Dangfeng said heartily: "Taishou, I really don't think you have never done business, you just said that, even if we have been doing it all our lives, we haven't even thought about it." ”

Li Chongjiu diverted the topic and said: "Since Shopkeeper Lin sells goods to the grassland, but he has his own shops in various counties? ”

This is a bit of a trade secret, Lin Dangfeng did not hide it and said directly: "Taishou, in the past, there were crude medicine shops, leather shops, whip cane shops, etc. in the three counties of Yanmen, Jinyang, and Shangdang, but now the shape over there is not good, and now it has been transferred to Zhuo County, Bohai County, and several counties in Zhuo County, we all have business, and we have four or five shops in Jixian County, and we have bought hundreds of acres of land, and there are special people to collect rent, as for Bohai County, it is now a little messy, but we still have three boats along the coast, which are specially used to transport some silk goods from Jiangnan. We also have a few procurement offices in Shudi, specializing in collecting Shu brocade and tea bricks. ”

Li Chongjiu nodded, which means that the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce has stretched out its hands everywhere. At that moment, Li Chongjiu asked: "It is not easy for your chamber of commerce to open such a big shop in Jixian County, so how do you get a relationship?" ”

At first glance, this question seems a little confusing, but the specific operators all understand that this is asking who is the person behind the Chamber of Commerce. Since the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce has invested a lot of industry in Jixian County, there must be officials above who are taking care of it.

Hearing Li Chongjiu's question, Lin Dangfeng shook his head, sighed, and said: "It turns out that we have opened up the joints of Guo Tongshou of Zhuo County, but unfortunately it is ...... now."

Li Chongjiu suddenly realized that Guo Tongshou was Guo Xuan, and when he led more than 10,000 officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress the anti-thieves a few months ago, he was defeated and killed because of the other party's fraudulent surrender. Guo Xuan was finally beheaded by Dou Jiande. Li Chongjiu understood in his heart why the Lin family was increasing their investment in themselves now, it turned out that after Guo Xuan's death, they lost the support of an official, and now in order to maintain their business, they have also increased their investment in Li Chongjiu.

In the case of Lin Dangfeng and Li Chongjiu, the emotional investment between the two is very crucial, but more importantly, Li Chongjiu is now the biggest support of the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce. After Li Chongjiu understood, he said; "Since Shopkeeper Lin has traveled from south to north and has industries in various counties, then I also want to ask Shopkeeper Lin to do me a favor."

Lin Dangfeng showed a serious look at the moment, with Li Chongjiu's status today, it is generally not easy to say that it is difficult to help. Lin Dangfeng said immediately: "Taishou, please say, I will definitely help if I can help." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "I want to ask the Lin family caravan to travel in various counties, it is accessible in all directions, has many ears, and also inquires about the news of all parties for me along the way, how about being my eyes and ears?" Lin Dangfeng showed a sudden look, understanding that Li Chongjiu wanted his own chamber of commerce as his meticulous work.

Li Chongjiu's eyes narrowed, as a businessman, it is a matter of course to go south and north, and it is effortless to find out the news. For example, others may not know how many officers and soldiers are stationed in a city, but a merchant who specializes in buying vegetables and rice for officers and soldiers can deduce the exact strength of officers and soldiers by using how much rice and grain they sell every day in a month.

Moreover, businessmen also have a set of meticulous means of messaging, where the price of goods is reduced, where there is an urgent shortage of goods, they will immediately know the news. In ancient times, when the news was blocked, a major event occurred in Luoyang, and it took more than ten days to reach Hebei. And the businessman is the second most well-informed after the government, Li Chongjiu wants to do a big thing in the world in the mansion, and it is the fastest to learn the news from the businessman. Li Chongjiu now wants to use the Lin Family Chamber of Commerce to first set up a set of his own intelligence network in Hebei to spy on the military intelligence of various forces, and then slowly expand.

Lin Dangfeng knew that if he agreed, he would be completely on Li Chongjiu's boat, and the two sides would be completely tied together. It's a risky one, but it's an extremely rewarding opportunity. Lin Dangfeng did not agree immediately, but said: "Taishou, this matter is very important, there are two brothers in the Chamber of Commerce, and they are in charge together, I will ask their opinions, and then reply to Taishou." ”

Li Chongjiu knew that he couldn't be too anxious, so he said immediately: "You can ask Shopkeeper Lin to discuss slowly." When the two were talking, someone outside the door suddenly said: "Taishou, I want to see you!" ”

Li Chongjiu was surprised, why did he suddenly come here when he was originally in Yuyi Town. Immediately, after the two sides sat down, he said to Li Chongjiu impatiently: "Great Khan, according to the Mukun tribe, the two tribes of Mohefu and Qili Han have already surrendered to the Turks, and they have also handed over hostages, and they are now training men and horses, and it seems that they are invading the pastures around our Wuhou Qinshui. Now the elders have demanded that we withdraw our troops from the south and return to the steppe immediately to deal with the two possible attacks. ”

Li Chongjiu secretly said that it was not good, what he was most worried about finally came, and now Song Jingang is still not calm, and there is a change in the north, isn't this a two-sided situation. It was not sudden that the Mohefu tribe and the Khi tribe were now subjugated to the Turks, and Shibi Khan moved the Khan's court from Yudujin Mountain in the north of Mobei to Tieshan Mountain north of Yinshan in Monan (Note 2). When Li Chongjiu heard about the relocation of the Turkic Khan's court, he knew that Shibi Khan's move was comparable to Emperor Xiaowen's determination and courage to move the capital to Luoyang, and the opposition and pressure within the two clans were very strong.

This move requires absolute courage, but now Shibi Khan has moved the Khan's court to Monan, and is showing the Turks to the steppe tribes that they will move south in a big way and enter the Central Plains. Therefore, many of the grassland tribes who were originally unconvinced now went to Tieshan to meet Shibi Khan and show their loyalty to him.

Li Chongjiu asked, "Is this news reliable?" Did the elders just go to understand the situation at all? ”

After hearing this, Mu Defeng said: "This matter came very suddenly, and the elders were all panicked when they heard it, and they didn't ask for more verification, so they immediately asked the Khan to immediately transfer troops and return to the grassland." ”

Li Chongjiu secretly scolded that this was simply a one-sided statement, and it was all from Qiu Lihan's mouth, and this was the disadvantage of not having an independent intelligence system. Lin Dangfeng, who was on the side, said: "Taishou, if we transfer troops now, then our attack on Yi County will be a failure, not only Fan Yang, but the entire Shanggu County may not be able to keep it." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Right now is the coldest time on the grassland, even if the two departments want to send troops, they have to go through this period, and since Qiu Lihan said so, the Mukun Department must have been prepared for a long time, and go back to tell Elder Sù that he can't transfer troops now." ”

"This," Mu Defeng said at the moment, "Khan, the elders unanimously asked for this, and please forgive the Khan." ”

Li Chongjiu knew that those elders were a big trouble. The gang was like creditors, thinking that the men and horses of the 9,000 cavalry were lent to them, and if they were not careful, they would lose their capital, and they always wanted to take back the men and horses from the south. They are more concerned about the safety of their cattle, sheep and livestock, and as for the Han people in the south, it is also Li Chongjiu's own business, and they will not worry about it.

Li Chongjiu said, "Okay, go back and tell Elder Sù to withdraw the army within a month." ”

"A month?" Room Defeng suddenly changed color.

Li Chongjiu said: "I am a khan, don't you even have this one-month deadline?" ”

"But within a month, maybe two of them have already called."

Li Chongjiu said: "Sue the elders and let them move south, if this really happens, I will compensate them for the loss of cattle, sheep and livestock." ”

Mu Defeng thought for a while and said: "Khan, a month is too long, I will delay it for half a month at most, if it doesn't work, the elders won't be able to get through." ”

Li Chongjiu thought about it for half a month, and then thought of other ways to delay the army, so he said: "Okay, half a month, for the time being." ”
