Chapter 1142: Finally to Chang'an
I have to say that the deal proposed by Li Qinzai is indeed of great interest, and he is sure that Cui Linqian will not be able to refuse.
Datang is a human slave market, and the laws and regulations are not disgraceful, but as long as the people who sell are not alien people with Datang household registration, the government often turns a blind eye.
So in just a few decades since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, in the super large cities of Luoyang, Chang'an, many powerful and powerful families travel with Kunlun slaves carrying sedan chairs and leading horses to fall, and these big families also show off their strength with the number of Kunlun slaves and orchids in the Western Regions.
The so-called "Kunlun slaves", of course, are not produced in the Kunlun Mountains, their composition is very complicated, descendants say that they were sold from Africa, this statement is not accurate, and now the era has not yet begun to sail, where to sell people from Africa?
In fact, Kunlun Nu is from Southeast Asia or South Asia, that is, the Philippines, Indonesia and other countries in the previous life, where it is a tropical country, people are tanned all year round, so in the Tang Dynasty handed down the text and picture records, Kunlun Nu is the image of the dark body.
Now the emergence of Li Qinzai has opened up a new world for Datang's population market.
The Japanese people are not strong enough, and their personalities are generally cunning and sinister, but they ...... That's a lot of people.
As long as they are trained well, are you afraid that they will work secretly and cheat?
Today's human slave market price is also considerable, a healthy male human slave is worth about 100 to 200 Wen, and for women, the face and body determine the price.
The profit from selling is not a big one, the important thing is that after these laborers come to Datang, they can create immeasurable value, reclaim wasteland, cultivate and harvest, and the abundance of labor force means that the income of the powerful landlord class in Datang will rise every year.
As Cui Linqian, who represented the interests of the gate lords and the landlord class, Li Qinzai did not believe that he would be indifferent.
If the young and strong labor force of the Japanese country is handed over to Cui Linqian, in the form of this agrarian society, whoever controls the labor market will have the right to speak, and I believe Cui Linqian can also see this intangible benefit clearly.
Today's son-in-law broke up unhappily, it doesn't matter, there is tomorrow.
was pushed back to the wing room by the maid in the backyard, Cui Jie and the maid carefully carried Li Qinzai back to the bed, and then helped him undress and wipe his face.
"There was a lot of quarrel in the backyard just now, and the concubine heard it in the house, what did my husband and my father talk about? You didn't fight, did you? Cui Jie asked worriedly.
Li Qinzai said softly: "Silly mother-in-law, I am your father's son-in-law, how dare I fight with my father-in-law?" ”
"I just had a very happy chat with your father, your father kept praising me for being a talent, and said that it was too wronged to marry you to me, the more your father said, the more inferior he became, and then he simply gritted his teeth and said that he wanted to worship a brother with a different surname with me, and in the future, you will call me uncle, and he will call me a virtuous brother, let's talk about it."
Li Qinzai sighed and said in a deep voice: "Your father is as enthusiastic as a desert, I really can't bear it, you go back and persuade your father, general enthusiasm is enough, don't go too far." ”
Cui Jie gasped and looked at him dumbfounded.
With this serious expression, how did you do nonsense without changing your face?
After a long time, Cui Jie came back to her senses and began to look left and right.
Li Qinzai was curious: "What is Madame looking for?" Uncle help you find ......"
"Li Qinzai! You're going to die! Cui Jie was furious and pinched his arm hard, blue and purple, and Li Qinzai's eyes widened in anger.
Sometimes he really hates himself, knowing that the consequences of talking nonsense are miserable, but he still can't control his mouth......
The next day, Cui Linqian really came again.
This time, Cui Lin was much calmer.
Everyone sat together to lay out the facts and reason, Cui Linqian insisted on dividing it into three percent, Li Qinzai and Xue Ne resolutely refused to agree, and there was no son-in-law in the business field, and the two sides quarreled again.
After the quarrel, they compromised and made concessions, and finally agreed that Li Qinzai and Xue Ne would each be divided into 40%, and Cui Linqian would be divided into 20%.
A hurtful deal, and a consensus was reached in the happy smiles of the three of them.
Without further ado, Li Qinzai's treasury was emptied, and now he was anxious to return to the blood, so even if Xue Ne was asked to immediately send a letter to the Xue family steward who was in charge of the Japanese State, and asked them to send the first batch of Japanese laborers to Dengzhou, and Cui Linqian would also send someone to receive it in Dengzhou Port.
If nothing else, when Li Qinzai and his party returned to Chang'an from Qingzhou, the first transaction was about to be settled.
After resting at Cui's house for two days, Li Qinzai and his party set out on the way home again.
Cui Linqian led the Cui family to send them ten miles away, but he didn't have a good face for Li Qinzai along the way.
Obviously, the results of the sharing between Weng and his son-in-law still made Cui Linqian feel dissatisfied and felt that he had suffered a loss.
Of course, Li Qinzai can't increase his share for the sake of his good face, and the virtuous son-in-law's family has no surplus food.
At the intersection ten miles away, Weng and his son-in-law looked at each other and said goodbye.
Cui Jie wiped her tears and said goodbye to her father and clansmen, and the group headed west.
The rest of the road was windless and calm.
Such a team is too conspicuous, attracting the attention of countless traders, along the way through every city, the officials have already been notified by the Dengzhou Assassin History, basically welcome out of the city ten miles away, after eating and drinking and socializing, continue on the road the next day.
Worried about the bumps on the road of Li Qin, the speed of the carriage and horse walking was much slower than that of ordinary business travelers, and after walking for nearly a month, he finally arrived outside Chang'an City.
Looking at the towering Chang'an city wall in the distance, Li Qinzai took a deep breath.
A farewell in recent years, it is like a world away.
"Husband, we're home......" Cui Jie hugged his waist tightly in the carriage.
Li Qinzai sighed: "In the future, let's live a stable life and never play with our lives again." ”
Cui Jie hugged him tighter: "Hmm! In the future, if the Son of Heaven entrusts you with a dangerous errand, the husband will never agree again, in order to serve the king's family and country, the husband has already lost his life once, which is enough. ”
"Don't worry, if the Son of Heaven asks me to do dangerous things in the future, I will fall to the ground and pretend to be dead on the spot, and I won't wake up when I stick a knife in my thigh."
The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, and the carriage slowly moved towards Chang'an City.
When they were about to arrive at the city gate, the Li family tribe was surprised to find that a pair of middle-aged men and women in Chinese clothes were standing outside the city, and there was a group of servants behind them, tiptoeing from time to time, obviously waiting for someone, the cold wind in the wild made them shiver, but they still stood straight.
Approaching, Feng Su looked carefully and was immediately shocked.
"Fifth Shaolang, Erlang and Mrs. are waiting for you!" Feng Su said loudly.
Immediately, the Li family dismounted one after another and saluted the middle-aged couple.
Li Qinzai was also startled, and hurriedly ordered someone to carry him out of the carriage, and the two subordinates carried him forward with difficulty and came to the middle-aged couple.
The two are Li Siwen and Li Cui.
Seeing that Li Qinzai was being supported all the way, and every step was very difficult, the couple stepped forward quickly, one left and one right to support him.
"My son...... Suffered! Li Cui's heart was so painful that he cried.
Li Siwen's eyes were also red, and he took a deep breath from time to time to hold back his tears.
"Father, mother, the child is still alive, and he is already very lucky." Lee Chin-jae smiled and helped Lee Choi wipe his tears.
