Cheng Qing just didn't go into the city, and businessmen were not allowed to enter the city.

Even those who were wounded were healed outside the city.

The businessmen were so angry that they dared not speak, Cheng Qing sneered: "This official suspects that there are spies in the crowd, and whoever wants to make trouble entering the city will be the most suspicious!" ”

Cheng Qing's dozens of servants, not only were some injured, but two were too seriously injured to be rescued, and they followed her out and couldn't bring people back safely, Cheng Qing's temper is very irritable now.

Wu Da was stabbed in the arm, and a lot of blood was shed, and Wu Da's face looked even paler - can Cheng Qing not be angry, since Wu Da was rescued from the Ghost Gate Pass that year, how long did he recuperate before he barely regained his body, if Wu Da died in the hands of the Northern Qi cavalry, Cheng Qing might have to abandon Wen Congwu under impulse, and follow Yu Xian and them to kill the enemy.

Cheng Qing thought for a long time and was not sure why these two or three hundred Northern Qi cavalry suddenly appeared, he didn't believe it was just a coincidence, it was these traders who were unlucky, these Northern Qi cavalry had a mission in their bodies, and they happened to encounter so many fat sheep, so they wanted to grab a vote temporarily, right?

Horse bandits and robbers, they all know that they must make arrangements for the aftermath, the people of Northern Qi are just burly, but their minds are not stupid, so they can get benefits from robbing temporarily, in addition to exposing their whereabouts!

This inexplicable looting seems to be deliberately creating chaos.

Is it attacking the east and the west, wanting to attack Anding County, or is there anyone who wants to take the opportunity to sneak into Anding County?

Anding County is in the rear of Lanzhou City, and the Northern Qi people have been unable to attack Lanzhou for a long time, so they may want to change their thinking.

Cheng Qing now looked at these people who were stopped outside the city, all of them looked like spies.

The traders were grateful to her before, and now they are going to scold her to death, and they want to leave regardless of it, the goods have been transported into Anding County, if they leave the goods behind, but they will even lose their capital, and no one is willing to leave.

They were afraid that their goods would be swallowed up, and they were afraid that if they stayed outside the city, they would be killed by Northern Qi people, and their inner anxiety could not be described in words.

The merchant who looked like a slave took the initiative to come over, he seemed to have come back to his senses, and accosted Cheng Qing:

"My lord, are you afraid that there are barbarians hiding among us?"

Cheng Qing looked this person up and down, wanting to say that she thought he was quite like a fine work, this person approached and took a closer look, and his facial features were quite characteristic of the grassland people.

The merchant smiled bitterly: "Adults don't have to look at the villain like this, the villain has half of the barbarian blood, his mother is a Wei person, and his father is a barbarian, but the villain has not seen his father since he can remember, and he has not fulfilled much responsibility except for leaving the villain with a look of being excluded everywhere." ”

Before the first emperor succeeded to the throne, border trade was not prohibited in the northwest, and there were many intermarriages between the grassland people and the people of the border cities.

Later, the first emperor succeeded to the throne, afraid of the power of Ye Wangfu, and ordered the closure of the border trade, and some grassland women who married to the northwest stayed, but most of the grassland men who married women in the northwest abandoned their wives and children and left.

Women are more soft-hearted, settled in the northwest, reluctant to men and children, after the first emperor banned border trade with the grassland tribes, the grassland women who married here simply returned to the Great Wei and became the children of the Great Wei.

Men are different, anyway, they don't need to work hard to have children, between returning to the grassland and staying in the northwest, most of them choose the former, and when they return to the grassland, the wives and children in the northwest can't catch up, and they can still marry another grassland woman as a wife.

The merchant's surname is Jiang, his name is Jiang Ziji, and he is a person from Pingliang Mansion.

Pingliang Mansion is in the north of Qin'an, next to Qin'an County.

Jiang Ziji not only has household stickers, but also can speak authentic Pingliang words, and he went to Lanzhou to sell fur, and there seems to be no doubt.

This man also knew that there was a store specializing in wool fabrics in the city of Lanzhou.

"I heard that it is produced in Qin'an County, and there are many merchants in Pingliang Mansion who send wool to Qin'an County."

Cheng Qing always had a cold expression, Jiang Ziji didn't think so, and was still willing to stick a hot face to a cold ass - there is nothing to be ashamed of, although the businessman is rich and has a low status, he should be careful and courteous in front of officials.

If it weren't for Cheng Qing's tough attitude and making other businessmen mad, Jiang Ziji would definitely not be the only one who is surrounding her now.

Anding Zhixian hurriedly came and introduced each other to Cheng Qing, Jiang Ziji exclaimed beside him: "It turns out that you are Cheng Qing of the sixth yuan and the first!" The villain and Master Cheng fell together, but it was the honor of the villain. ”

What an honor there is to be in distress.

Jiang Ziji can shoot the sycophants so naturally, this person is really able to stretch and bend.

Anding Zhixian saw that Cheng Qing ignored Jiang Ziji and acted as a peacemaker, "It turns out that Master Cheng has already met Jiang Xiandi, although Jiang Xiandi is a businessman, but he cares about the affairs of his family and country. ”

Anding Zhixian seemed to be afraid that Cheng Qing would be prejudiced against Jiang Ziji, so he hurriedly introduced Jiang Ziji's righteous deeds.

For Anding Zhixian to say this, half of the family business donated by Jiang Ziji must be a large sum of silver.

Cheng Qing's face immediately eased a lot, Jiang Ziji didn't care about Cheng Qing's coldness just now, he had a foreign appearance, and he was a businessman, others didn't know who he was, so they would naturally guard against him.

"The villain is a Wei person in life, and he is still a Wei person when he dies, but he is just doing a little bit of his best, and I just hope that the Great Wei will defeat the barbarians as soon as possible."

After a few words of greeting, Anding Zhixian asked Cheng Qing what he was going to do, if the goods accompanying Cheng Qing were transported to Lanzhou in a hurry, Anding Zhixian was willing to send someone to escort him.

"Lord Cheng is busy with affairs and can't afford to delay, if there is a problem with these caravans, this official will not let them leave the city, and will verify their identities one by one."

Anding Zhixian put forward a suggestion, but Cheng Qing was noncommittal.

This magistrate seems to want her to leave quickly!

Cheng Qing smiled and received the kindness of Anding Zhixian, "In this case, there is labor." ”

The woolen socks and gloves she transported, a truckload of them were transported into Anding County, and now they were transported out as they were, and the officials who escorted the car felt that the chalk mark was a little shallow, and the amount of goods was a little wrong, but a bag could be untied, and it was woolen socks.

Is it because you are too suspicious?

The official suppressed the doubts in his heart.

The merchants outside the city gate looked excited, wishing that Cheng Qing and his party would leave quickly, without Cheng Qing present, they would be able to get the goods back if they wanted to find a way.

Maybe they can't get all of it back, and some of the losses are still within the range of their acceptance.

Before leaving, Cheng Qing suddenly remembered something, and asked Wuda to order two thousand four hundred taels of silver tickets and hand them over to Anding Zhixian.

"This is the reward that the official promised to give to the warriors who killed the enemy."

Cheng Qing has paid for it, and the businessmen must also pay for it immediately, and they secretly scolded Cheng Qing for being troublesome.

Those guards didn't expect Cheng Qing to speak like this, saying that killing a barbarian would reward one hundred taels, then there was really no one tael.

When Cheng Qing said this, he deliberately went to see Jiang Ziji, and found that the other party had a natural expression, and he was not sad at all for the dead Northern Qi cavalry.

- This man, as he said, has long regarded himself as a citizen of Great Wei, or he is extremely ruthless and can watch his compatriots die in front of him.
