When Lin Qingwan was escorted out of the mutual market by the guards, it was already almost dark, and Zheng Tingshi couldn't help laughing, "The county lord is still so popular. ”

Lin Qingwan smiled bitterly and said: "When Zhang Tingshi and Yan Tingshi arrive, I invited the envoys of the Liao State to come over to discuss the new rules of the mutual market, the new emperor ascended the throne, although the friendship between the two countries remains unchanged, but it is better to confirm it again." ”

Wu Shilang and Zheng Tingshi immediately bowed down.

Seeing that Lin Qingwan's face was tired, the two of them said goodbye and let her rest, as for the reception banquet, let's wait for Zhang Tingshi and them to arrive.

The Liao State tasted the sweetness from the mutual market, even if there were still people in the Liao army who wanted to fight, but the tribes below were unwilling, and the scattered herdsmen were even more unwilling.

Relying on the mutual market and the Liao merchants who traveled south and north, they could barely make ends meet, and they didn't want to fight anymore, even if someone tricked them into going south to loot countless wealth, there were very few people who were really excited.

And Liang Guo's side is not to mention.

The war of the Liang State has not really been broken, and now the Chu State has been destroyed, and their task is to ensure peace at the border pass and let the people recuperate for a while.

So I don't want to go to war.

What's more, the mutual markets of the two states of Youyun have to pay a part of the military tax for the military salary of the Northeast Army, after all, they have to ensure the safety of the caravan along the way.

They are not allowed to be harassed by bandits and bandits, so this part of the military salary is additional and is not included in the example.

Therefore, they do not make a fortune by war, but they can also make a fortune by mutual markets.

Under this mainstream thinking, Lin Qingwan and the Liao envoys soon reached a consensus, signed new regulations, and began to organize the Mid-Autumn Festival.

They plan to set the first mutual market event between the two countries in the five days before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

From August 15 to August 2, when the autumn harvest of Liang is basically over, a batch of cattle and sheep will be sold on the Liao side, and the leather goods and medicinal materials that have accumulated for half a year will also be sold.

Because the mutual market is still a little smaller, the two countries decided to expand the place a little more and only use it for the grand event.

There will even be tax incentives in the two countries, and restrictions on small traders will be relaxed, which can be regarded as enjoying the people.

Lin Ren and Lin Zhi, who originally wanted to hurry up and sell the tea in their hands and then buy some leather goods back to Suzhou, pressed it down again, planning to wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to barter.

Lin Qingwan was very satisfied with their caution, and she also knew that their character was not bad when she looked at them on the way, so she asked Lin An to talk to the two of them, if they wanted to become bigger, they could borrow a sum of money from her.

Lin Ren and Lin Zhi were moved, but after thinking about it all night, they still refused.

Their courage is not as good as Lin Chuan, and it is already a great courage to come to Youzhou, let them go into debt to do business, no matter what.

Lin An shook his head after getting the reply, and said with a smile to Lin Qingwan: "The two young masters are also too honest. ”

Lin Qingwan smiled, "Honesty also has the benefits of being honest, although you earn less and accumulate wealth more slowly, you are down-to-earth and your heart is stable." ”

Lin An asked, "Do you want a little one to help them secretly?" ”

"Then it's not interesting," Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "Only leave the small courtyard in the front yard for them to live in, and let them toss the rest." ”

Lin An understood what Lin Qingwan meant, this was not much interference, he should report other things later, "Young Master Chuan also built another courtyard in Youzhou, which is enough to have five entrances, in addition to his own caravan to live, he occasionally accepts small merchants from Suzhou." The caravans in the clan will also settle down in him, this Mid-Autumn Festival he came in person, and handed over the post early this morning, do you want to see him? ”

"No need, I will summon the rich merchants in the city in the next few days, he is also among them, and I will see you then."

Lin An took the post in his hand and began to report other things, "Gu Luo and Liu Hu borrowed a sum of silver from us and entered the Liao Kingdom, and now they are very comfortable in the tribes, what you have ordered is only a short time, and they have not connected all the tribes on the grassland." ”

"This is not something that can be done overnight," Lin Qingwan said: "Let them do it first, I don't have to look at the results now." ”

"But Auntie, our control over these two people is too weak, their wings are stiff, I'm afraid they won't listen to the command."

Gu Luo and Liu Hu were the leaders of the Hannu who followed Jiang San and Zhu Xuan back then, and after escaping, they took refuge with Lin Qingwan together.

At first, all four of them had to accumulate a certain amount of money before leaving.

But Jiang San wanted to stay by Lin Qingwan's side because of Xiao Shi, and Zhu Xuan had no ambitions, and he had a good relationship with Jiang San, and as soon as Jiang San stayed, he also stayed with him.

And Gu Luo and Liu Hu still decided to leave and work alone, but because of Jiang San, they mustered up the courage to borrow money from Lin Qingwan, intending to make the business bigger.

Lin Qingwan agreed, and even took the initiative to increase the money, without interest, as long as she was repaid after three years, there was only one request.

She told them to go to the grasslands, and it was better to do business to every tribe, as long as they sent some information back to them from time to time.

Gu Luo and Liu Hu agreed at that time, but the two sides did not make a very strict boundary about this, so in the first half a year, the two of them were very active in transmitting information to Lin An, no matter how big or small.

Later, the information was small and fine, and now, whether it is fine or miscellaneous, he hasn't received it for a long time anyway, and the reason given by Gu Luo and Liu Hu is that they have gone far away, and the message transmission is inconvenient, so it will be slower.

These two people and the Lin family are not masters and servants, and Lin An can't control them, so he can only express his dissatisfaction in the air.

At this time, I want my aunt to make an idea, should these two people be lighter or heavier?

Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "The goods they trade with the tribes also have to come out of the mutual market, I will mention it to Wu Shilang, what they do now should be the responsibility of the Li Fan Yuan, so you don't need to contact them anymore, in the future, the Li Fan Yuan will be responsible for it." ”

Lin Anxin was overjoyed, and he felt much better when he was treated slowly by the two of them.

Cooperating with the Lin family, with the benevolent character of the aunt and grandmother and the generous family style of the Lin family, those two people will never suffer, but it will be different if they are replaced by the Li Fan Yuan.

Hmph, do you think that when you leave the Liang Kingdom, they won't be able to control them?

Lin Qingwan knew that Gu Luo and Liu Hu were mostly testing, testing her bottom line and Liang Guo's bottom line, and then weighing the pros and cons.

Everyone has to consider their own interests, even she is not exempt from vulgarity, so she never thought of making Gu Luo and Liu Hu obedient, but they were just cooperating.

If they can't do it, then change it, not to mention that they also have their own eyes and ears in the Liao Kingdom.

Now the relationship between the two countries is peaceful, so she is not in a hurry.

But Gu Luo and they need Liang Guo's goods to build the foundation of their caravan, and they should be in a hurry.

Lin Qingwan lowered her eyes and thought for a while: "Transfer Jiang San and Zhu Xuan, they are familiar with Liao, and they are proficient in the languages of various tribes, you can train the two of them, and then divide them into two departments and hand them over, and they will operate in Youzhou and Yunzhou whether they go to Liao or not, in short, let them build news channels." ”

"Their loyalty ......"

Lin Qingwan smiled, "Xiao Shi is now an errand by my side, and Jiang San and Zhu Xuan have been following me for more than a year, so I can trust him." ”

Lin An breathed a sigh of relief and responded to this matter.

After arranging these important things, Lin Qingwan stretched her waist, and when she saw that the sunset outside was about to disappear, she closed her sore eyes and walked out.

Bai Feng came over with a plate of cold melons, and said with a smile: "Auntie, look, this is brought by a merchant in the Western Regions, I will let people buy it back if I look good, you can eat it to relieve the heat." ”

Lin Qingwan picked up a piece and said with a smile: "We won't eat in the house tonight, let's go out to eat, I heard that Youzhou is also very lively at night now, you should also go out for a walk." ”

There is no girl who doesn't like shopping, Bai Feng became happy, and began to count his fingers to calculate what he was going out to buy tonight.

Lin Qingwan looked at the smile and asked her to get a hat to bring it to her.

Nearly half of the people in Youzhou City recognize her, and every time she goes out, she is watched, so it's better to wear a hat.

Bai Feng also brought one to Yi Han, "It's only my aunt and grandmother who wear it, it's useless if Brother Yi doesn't wear it, everyone knows that my aunt and grandmother are there as soon as they see him." ”

Lin Qingwan thought about it for a while, and smiled and asked Yi Han to bring it too.

There weren't many people they brought with them this time, just three girls and five guards.

This is very common in Youzhou, and there are many more than her.

Although Yi Han had only been back in Youzhou for about ten days, he was very familiar with the streets and alleys here, and soon took Lin Qingwan to find a roadside stall and sit down.

Yi Han said: "His family's sheep scorpions and scones are very good, and my aunt may like to eat them." ”

Because he wasn't sure if Lin Qingwan liked to eat it, he only needed two servings and gave them a taste first.

Lin Qingwan tasted it, raised her eyebrows slightly, tore the scones into the mutton soup like the people around her, and nodded after taking a bite: "It's really good." ”

Yi Han smiled, and then waved his hand to ask the boss to bring one each.

Bai Feng and Bai Tang were a little unaccustomed to eating, and secretly said: "Usually my aunt and grandmother eat very lightly, but I didn't expect to love to eat such meat things." ”

After eating a meal of sheep and scorpions here, Lin Qingwan walked down a little further, and then bought a donkey meat to burn, looking at the weak Xiao Shi, maybe because he had been in Liaoying, he also liked to eat.

Bai Feng and Bai Tang silently decided that they must give their aunt and grandmother more fruits after they go back, how can they just eat meat and not eat vegetarian?

Just thinking about it, Lin Qingwan took them to a side restaurant to eat vegetarian food.

White Maple and White Begonia: ......

And when they were about to go in, a woman with a haul on her shoulders came out, and when she saw them, she stepped back and tried to let them go in.

But as soon as she turned her eyes and saw Bai Feng, she was slightly stunned, and then looked at the woman with a white hat surrounded in the middle, and was a little hesitant for a while.

Yi Han, who was also wearing a hat, glanced at her through the green yarn, paused slightly, and then walked two steps to Lin Qingwan's side and whispered, "Grandma, it's an old acquaintance." ”

Lin Qingwan turned her head to look at it, and met the woman's gaze.

When the woman saw Lin Qingwan coming over, she took two steps forward and was about to kneel down to salute, thinking that she was wearing a hat, obviously not wanting to be recognized, so she hesitated a little.

Lin Qingwan also recognized her, smiled slightly, took two steps forward to hold her hand, and said with a smile: "Madame, why don't you go upstairs and talk about it?" ”

The woman nodded again and again, and followed Lin Qingwan upstairs with some restraint, and when she entered the box, she was about to kneel and salute, Lin Qingwan hurriedly supported her and didn't let her kneel, "Mrs. Jicao, don't be like this, why are you here?" ”

The woman was Ji Cao, she looked two points younger than she looked more than a year ago, and when she saw Lin Qingwan take off her hat, she couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm here to send medicinal herbs to the restaurant, they need our medicinal herbs to make medicinal food." When I heard that the county lord was coming, Lanna and I always wanted to go to see the county lord, but we were afraid of disturbing you, so we didn't dare to go. ”
