When he came back from the market, Zhou Yu did not have the joy of rejoicing with the people at all, he had a gloomy face and was silent.

Yi Kuan and Yi Rong soon discovered the abnormality of the second brother, and the two little girls shrank their necks and went back to their yard.

"Second brother, what's wrong? It's not like I'm upset because of what I said, right? Yirong asked.

At that time, she said that whether the drum was made by the Korean people or the Daqi people, she liked it all.

It doesn't seem to be to the point of making the second brother angry, right?

Yi Kuan comforted: "Don't worry, the second brother won't be angry with you, he loves us like a sister." ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, Yirong waved his little fist: "If the second brother is really angry with me for this, I will write to tell my sister!" ”

Yi Kuanwan, it's good, they also have someone to rely on now, and they are no longer the two poor little girls back then.

Soon, the entire palace was covered with dark clouds, and except for the courtyards of the two county lords, everything else was depressed.

Therefore, when all the officials in Yanbei City were called to the Yin'an Hall of Yanwang Mansion to discuss matters, many people had their legs and stomachs trembling.

This young Yan King is not as simple and amiable as he seems on the surface, when he stepped on the Tartar, blood stained his battle robe.

In Yanbei, as well as in Tarata, there are many, many legends about the sisters and brothers of Yanwang, killing one person in ten steps, and not leaving a line for thousands of miles.

The Yanbei people believe that these legends are true, because they are the children of the old Yan King, and the Tatars also believe that they are true, because their mother is the heroine Yun Qi!

The officials didn't know what King Yan had summoned them for suddenly, and they had reminded themselves and their families about what they had done recently, and some were calm, while others were even more uneasy.

King Yan slowly walked into the Yin'an Palace, he sat on the throne, and the officials bowed. King Yan's gaze swept over them one by one, and his face was uncertain.

There was silence in the hall, so quiet that everyone could hear their own heartbeats.

Suddenly, King Yan said: "Lord Wang, may I ask how many shops of tea and wine are there in Yanbei City, how many of them are opened by Yanbei people, how many are opened by Guannei people, and how many are opened by Tartar, Antar, Dangxia, and Goryeo people?" ”

That Lord Wang is the parent official of Yanbei City, and when he heard this, he was stunned, and said hesitantly: "There were originally sixty-five tea and wine shops in Yanbei City, and many more have been opened in the past two years, and now there are one hundred and ninety-four, as for how many people are from other places...... The lower official still needs to go back and check. ”

King Yan looked at everyone again and asked, "Do you know anything that Lord Wang doesn't know?" ”

There was silence in the hall, and everyone bowed their heads, but no one answered.

King Yan looked at the eunuch beside him and said, "You go outside and ask." ”

Those who can enter the Yin'an Palace are all of the grade, and some of them don't even have a grade, and they are all waiting outside the Yin'an Palace.

The eunuch went out for a spin and brought back a young man.

When Lord Wang saw this young man, he frowned, and was about to say something, but King Yan had already spoken: "Do you know the question that this king asked?" ”

The young man stepped forward and said: "There are five shops in Yanbei City about outsiders, one is a winery, selling home-brewed wine, the family's surname is Mo, in Yanbei for a year, I heard that after the death of the family, the people in the clan could not tolerate orphans and widows, so they simply went out to ask for a living, and now the main thing is Aunt Mo, she has two sons, the eldest is eighteen years old, and the younger one is only ten years old; The second one is also a year ago, it is a craftsman who eats by hand, making some fresh style of gadgets, and the surname of the head is Tang ......"

As the young men came one by one, there was no other sound in the hall, and even Lord Wang pricked up his ears to listen.

After the young man finished talking about the shop in the pass, he continued: "There is only one Tartar shop, which sells horse harness, this person was originally working in the Tartar horse farm, after the death of the first prince, the horse farm gradually could not be opened, and then there was a son from the northwest who came over, and even brought people and horses to the northwest, this Tartar dragged the family with the mouth, and did not follow the east family to go, a few years ago he hid in the mountains as a hunter, and in the past two years, it was a little peaceful, he came to Yanbei City to open a harness shop. ”

King Yan's eyebrows moved, the son and brother from the northwest, thinking that it was his brother-in-law Xiao Ren, okay, no wonder A-Niang refused to come back when she entered her brother-in-law's racecourse, it turned out that it was from Yanbei, and A-Niang had a sense of intimacy.

"What about the Korean shop, is there one in Yanbei?" King Yan asked.

The young man said, "There is one, but it cannot be said to be Korean. The man in that family is Han Chinese, and he is a native of Yanbei City, and he has lived in Yanbei City for several generations. And the woman of that family is a Han with Goryeo ancestry. The prince may not remember, in the early years, there was a Goryeo dancing girl in the palace of the king of Yan, the first prince gave this dancing girl to the princess, the princess was merciful and let her out of the house, the lady in this shop is the daughter of this dancing girl, her father, is the musician in the palace before. The shop they opened sold all Korean objects, but these objects were not from Goryeo, but they hired people to make them. ”

King Yan's eyes lit up, and he said, "What's your name, where is your errand?" ”

The young man said: "The villain's name is Liang Song, and he is currently the secretary of the tax department. ”

The history of the tax department, the business tax, has not entered the stream, and there is no product.

This young historian not only treasured the shops in Yanbei, but also told them their origins and identities, and King Yan was very satisfied, and he left Liang Song and several staff members behind.

The next day, a copy of King Yan's excerpt was sent to the capital.

King Yan said in the excerpt that in order to recruit businessmen from all over the world, Yanbei was willing to reduce the tax interest of foreign businessmen by another one.

This is to let the imperial court order that Guang Merchants Jia go to Yanbei to do business.

After the excerpt was sent away, King Yan's brows finally stretched, and the dark clouds in King Yan's mansion for several days finally dispersed, and the sun was shining!

"Liang Song, which street is the shop selling Korean goods you are talking about?" King Yan asked idly.

Liang Song said: "Speaking of which, the place is actually not difficult to find, it is in Sandao. ”

King Yan had only heard of Erdaoli, which was the Rouge Lane of Yangliu Hutong in Yanbei City, but it was the first time he had heard of these three roads.

Ke Yi'er on the side said with a smile: "It turns out that the broken street now has a name, but I don't even know it." ”

Liang Song smiled: "It's no wonder that Lu Ye doesn't know, these three roads are Xiao Ke himself, there was no shop there before, and he didn't need to register to make accounts, but now that he has a shop, Xiao Ke has to register on the account, and he can't write it as the broken street behind the second road, so he named it Sandaoli." ”
