There are two markets in Chang'an City!

West City and East City!

One is located in the southwest of Chang'an City, and the other is located in the southeast of Chang'an City!

However, both markets are markets, but the two markets are different in terms of positioning!

Due to its proximity to Taiji Palace, Daming Palace, and Xingqing Palace, the East Market is surrounded by the residences of dignitaries and dignitaries, so there are many luxury goods in the city, and the main services are also a few people such as dignitaries!

The West Market is popular, civilian, and there are a large number of merchants from the Western Regions, the Wa Kingdom and other international markets, the value of things is relatively low, there are no luxury goods, but the goods are wide and miscellaneous, almost in Datang and the surrounding countries of Datang, can be bought here.

Of course, due to the chaos in the world in the past two years, it is difficult for many "foreigners" of this era to come to Chang'an City, so there are slightly fewer foreigners in the west city of Chang'an City in the past two years, and the west city seems a little lonely!

But no matter what, this is still one of the top and largest markets in the world in this era!

Entrance to the West Market!

The little nurse came here with Li Kuan in her arms!

A group of guards guarded them, and Li Kuan's uncle Zhao Shi followed alongside!

"Is this the West Market?" Li Kuan looked at the scene of people coming and going in front of him, and was a little surprised!

This is the first time in his life that he has come to West Market!

I haven't been here for two years before, at first because I was still a baby and had no ability to move, and the eldest grandson Wujian didn't bring him here, and then after coming to the Chu Palace, it was because I didn't dare to come!

You must know that the sanitary conditions in this era can basically be said to be no, and the market itself is considered a relatively dirty place, plus his current identity is a young child, and his resistance is extremely weak, so he doesn't dare to come!

He's afraid of some kind of germs in this hellish place!

But now after seeing it with his own eyes, Li Kuan found that Xishi was much better than he imagined!

All the vendors are neatly set up on both sides of the street, there is no problem of messing around, although the ground is a little dirty, but it is only a little, although there is a little smell in the air, but it is not a dirty smell, but the aroma of different foods after cooking!

Moreover, from time to time there are patrolling soldiers walking by on the streets, and if there is any quarrel, they will step forward in time to deal with it!

Overall, it's even better than the ordinary vegetable market before Li Kuan's crossing!

After being surprised for a while, Li Kuan came back to his senses and said to Zhao Shi on the side, "Uncle, take me to buy a dog!" ”

"Buy a dog?"

Zhao Shi was stunned, Li Kuan hadn't said anything about it beforehand!

But then, he reacted, nodded immediately, and said in a deep voice, "Okay! ”

Zhao Shi has a loyal and obedient personality, and as long as he is not too embarrassed by Li Kuan's order, he basically won't ask why!

Little things like buying a dog, not to mention!

It was because of his character and his background as a businessman that Li Kuan decided to develop him into his first loyal subordinate after thinking about it for a long time!

To develop power, money is bound to be indispensable, so Li Kuan must find a way to make some money.

Although there is no shortage of money in the palace, Li Yuan rewarded a lot of fields, a lot of money, a lot of cloth, and the Qin Wangfu also gave a lot of things, but those who feed the people in the palace and let Li Kuan live a luxurious life is not a problem, but it is not enough to form a force!

In this regard, Li Kuan is still short of money!

However, in this era, it's not Li Kuanchui, if he wants to make money, it's as easy as picking up!

Although he graduated from a foreign language department with the necessary distilled spirits, salt, papermaking, glass-burning, etc., which are necessary for those travelers, he has far more insight and business means than this era!

Once in order to prove that he is not only a rich second generation, he has also done business, opened a company, and even made the company from zero to a monthly turnover of tens of millions!

Although he later sold the company because he felt that it was not as cool as being a rich second generation, he sold the company, bought dozens of houses, and returned to the carefree life of the rich second generation, but the business means and insight are still there!

As long as you carefully understand the business rules of this era, Li Kuan is confident that he can find a way to make money that is suitable for this era!

It's just that he's too young to do a lot of things, so he needs a white glove to do it for him!

Combining these two things, his cheap uncle walked into Li Kuan's eyes!

As a merchant family, Li Kuan's cheap uncle is certainly no stranger to business, and he is loyal and obedient, which also reassures him!

As for how to accept it...

Li Kuan has not thought of it yet, and he needs to think about it in the long run.

---

For the West Market, Zhao Shi, who used to be a businessman, is very familiar!

Under his leadership, the group walked into the West Market, and after turning around, they soon came to a store!

"Wangwang~"

As soon as I arrived at the door of the store, I heard a dense barking of dogs.

"Yo~ Brother Zhao, a rare guest! It's been a long time since I've seen you, and I heard that you entered your nephew's palace as a steward? Why, you have time to come here today? Before Li Kuan and the others entered, a middle-aged man with a big belly in the store greeted him with a smile.

"Ahem!"

Seeing this, Zhao Shi didn't speak, just coughed lightly twice, and then glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him and asked him to look to the other side!

"Huh!?"

The middle-aged man was a little confused, but he still subconsciously looked aside!

A human cub that looks like it's only one or two years old!

A beautiful woman holding a child in her arms!

Ten guards with serious faces and majestic looks!

These three entered the eyes of the middle-aged man, and he immediately reacted!

I'm afraid it's not Zhao Shi's nephew?

Thinking like this, the middle-aged man's chubby and smiling face hung up an extremely flattering smile with lightning speed, and then bowed respectfully and said, "See the prince!" ”

"Excuse me!"

Li Kuan waved his hand.

"Thank you, Lord Wang!"

After the middle-aged man responded happily, he stood up, and then quickly approached Li Kuan, revealing a licking dog appearance, and said flatteringly, "Little Wangye, what do you want, I will give you half price for everything in the store!" ”

Although Li Kuan is only two years old this year, he is the king of Chu!

Therefore, the middle-aged man wants to please Li Kuan!

As a businessman, he knows very well that in this era, if they are businessmen, if they don't have a good backer, it is easy to be bullied, and it is not impossible to be ruined by others!

"Lao Chen, you're enough!" Zhao Shi, who couldn't stand it, scolded with black lines.

"Uh..."

The middle-aged man known as Lao Chen listened, then touched his nose and put away the flattering smile on his face!

"Shopkeeper Chen, introduce your things, I want to buy a few dogs!" Li Kuan said with a smile.

He didn't react to Lao Chen's flattery!

Whether it was before or after the crossing, there has never been a shortage of such people around him!

He knew very well in his heart that although this kind of person looked disgusting, it was very easy to use!

Because they're realistic!

They know what you can give them, they know what they want, and as long as you can give them what they want, he will do everything he can to help you do what you want to do!

"Maybe I'll use it later!"

In his heart, Li Kuan labeled this shopkeeper Chen with such a label!

"Okay, little prince, please inside!"

After the shopkeeper Chen introduced the group into the store, he pointed to the dogs in cages on both sides of the store, introduced them, and said, "This is a roe deer, a Shiba Inu, a hunting dog, and a subordinate dog..."

After introducing the dogs in the store one by one, the shopkeeper Chen said proudly, "My dog, many wealthy families like to buy them back to care for their homes, and there are also some more petite, good-looking, and deep ones that many wealthy ladies and ladies like!" ”

Li Kuan listened to his introduction, nodded his head, and glanced at the various breeds of dogs in the store!

Ultimately!

He set his sights on the Shiba Inu!

Shiba Inu, commonly known as the earth dog, the scientific name is the Chinese pastoral dog, before Li Kuan crossed, widely existed in the rural areas of the rabbit country and Southeast Asia!

When he was a child before the crossing, Li Kuan also once raised one!

Unfortunately, he later passed away due to illness!

Li Kuan, who was less than seven years old at the time, cried all day!

And seeing this kind of dog again, he felt a little more emotion in his heart!

"That's it!" Li Kuan has a decision in his heart!

The reason why he made this decision, in addition to being partly because of memories, is more because Shiba Inu is really suitable!

Shiba Inu's ability and attack power may not be good, but the character is docile and loyal, easy to raise, and it will not hurt people easily, but it is very suitable for Li Kuan now!

He's only two years old!

If you choose a fierce dog, what if you bite him?

That's almost fatal!

There is no rabies vaccine in this day and age!

Moreover, compared with other dogs, Shiba Inu Li Kuan is more familiar with it, and only this is the only way he can be sure to raise it well!

Thinking of this, Li Kuan turned to the shopkeeper Chen and said, "Just Shiba Inu, bring me five... Well, it's best to be just born not long ago! ”

Considering the risk of plane exploration, Li Kuan can't just buy one, he must have a few on hand, so that if there is an accident, there will be a backup!

And the reason why I bought a puppy that has not been born for a long time is because the puppy is less aggressive, and it is more adaptable and easy to mature.

As for whether the puppy is too small and will cause problems to explore the plane later...

Dogs grow fast!

One year is enough time for them to grow to the best condition!

"Okay! A juvenile Shiba Inu is two runs, five ten runs, just charge you half the price to five runs! Shopkeeper Chen said after thinking about it.

To be honest, the price is a bit expensive!

In this era, five guan money is enough to buy seventy or eighty stone (Tang one stone is about equal to fifty-three kilograms) of grain, so that a family of five can live a peaceful life without worrying about food for more than a year!

However, considering that in this era of war and chaos, dogs can not only take care of the home, but also a source of meat, and the dogs sold by Chen Shopkeeper are indeed good in terms of coat color and posture, and the quality is superior, so although the price is a little expensive, it is still within a reasonable range!

At this time, Shopkeeper Chen flattered and said, "Then the little prince, do you need me to send it to the house for you?" ”

Generally speaking, his store does not include delivery, and additional money is required to send it!

But who is Li Kuan?

O King of Chu!

If others don't send it, Li Kuan will definitely send it!

Regardless of whether the package is losing money or not, as long as he can appear in front of Li Kuan, the king of Chu, a few more times and leave a good enough impression on Li Kuan, it will be worth it for the shopkeeper Chen!

If something unfortunate happens to him one day, a good impression may save him!

"Hmm!"

Li Kuan nodded and said, "Send the dog to the Chu Palace, and the money will be settled to you at that time!" ”

The mainstream currency of Datang is copper plates, and it has always been a thousand copper plates!

But seriously, no one would go out with that much money!

Why?

Because it's heavy!

A copper plate is about four grams, a thousand is eight catties, and five is forty catties!

Who would bring something that heavy on the street if they're fine?

Even if you are not afraid of being robbed, the weight alone is enough to exhaust people!

Therefore, when buying more expensive things, I usually ask someone to go to the mansion to settle the settlement, or read the things in advance, and then use a cart to transport the money over!

Of course, if you ask someone to settle the settlement in the mansion, ordinary people will definitely not be able to do it, and only people with heads and faces in Chang'an City can do it!

After all, stores are also afraid of people running orders!

"Understood!"

Shopkeeper Chen smiled and nodded.

"Alright, let's go shopping somewhere else!" Li Kuanzheng said.

It's hard to come out for a trip, and naturally he can't just buy a few dogs and go back!

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

And for his order, of course, the group could only listen!

Thereupon!

The group left the shop.
