Chapter 29 Interests come first

Yun Chu invited Helan Minzhi and his wife to dine in the county Yahoutang, not because he valued the couple very much, but because he wanted to know what they were going to do in the future.

No one can predict the future of the two crazy people, Yun Chu just wants to get a general idea from the interaction.

Other county officials generally do not repair the yamen, because repairing the yamen is equivalent to hopeless promotion, Yunchu is different, he himself has no chance of promotion.

Wannian County Ya may be the most arrogant county Ya in the Tang Dynasty, and even counting the Assassin Shi Mansion, there are few that can compare with Wannian County Ya.

If the front hall here is majestic enough, then the back hall is a good place for birds and flowers.

Yun Chu has always regarded this place as a good place to entertain merchants from all over the world, and even the chefs are masters drawn from the two large canteens.

In this extravagant back hall, there are countless transactions of large quantities of goods or trade routes connecting the north and the south.

Not only can you cook Chang'an cuisine here, but even some famous foods in the Tang Dynasty are not lacking.

There are not only a variety of dishes on land and water, but even the monks who pay attention to some of them, the vegetarian food eaten by the nuns is also the first in this place, especially a vegetarian duck, not a duck, but it tastes better than a duck.

The best food of the big cannibals in Chang'an City is also the first in the canteen of the Yahoutang in Wannian County.

At the beginning, when Yun Chu entertained the big food messenger in the back hall, the big food messenger who ate a meal recited poems on the spot, ate this food, and never felt homesick from then on.

The food in the canteen of the county yahoutang has never won by more, on the contrary, the dishes here strictly adhere to the imperial court meal system.

Entertaining merchants, generally no more than four dishes and one soup, entertaining officials at the same level, but also one more chicken, Shangguan comes, generally add another duck.

Of course, sometimes it depends on people putting dishes on the plate, if the other party can bring great benefits to Wannian County and Chang'an, there is basically no upper limit.

For example, the last time he entertained the merchants of the Great Food Country and the Western Regions, Yun Chu ordered a roasted camel, which was fully prepared, the process was cumbersome, and the scale was so large, there was no other thing for a while, and when the six wrestlers lifted the whole roasted golden camel from the huge pit stove with a wheel, Chang'an was shocked.

Originally, Helan Minzhi and his wife killed a lot of Chang'an people when they came to Chang'an, and Yun Chu was ready to be angry, but when he thought about it, with Helan Min's ability, since he killed his father-in-law's family, then, where is the accumulation of the sheep and the tribe for hundreds of years?

Needless to say, it must have fallen into the hands of these two people.

In this case, it is necessary to think carefully about this meal, Chang'an, as the burial place of the world's wealth, cannot have any unnecessary discrimination because the accumulation of sheep may be different from the Central Plains.

Although the Tibetans are not very clean, their wealth can still be used as long as it is washed with water.

It was because of this idea that Yun Chu looked at Helan Minzhi and his wife differently.

As for those who make mistakes...... Deliver it to the company for disposal.

Whether it is Master Liu or Zhang Jia, they are very clear about the trial process of the crime, and naturally know how to deal with it.

The incident of dead people in Ping'an needs to be put to rest as soon as possible.

How can it be calmed down as soon as possible?

It's good to catch the murderer and punish him properly.

Now, the murderer is in Wannian County, and the bitter masters have also come to the county government to complain, so things will be easy to do.

As for what Helan Minzhi and Dunzhu think, Yun Chu doesn't care, Master Liu, Zhang Jia doesn't care, and the county zun doesn't have an arrangement, which is the best arrangement.

One murderer, four accomplices, all in one.

In the Tang Dynasty, the power of the government is very large, and there are very few written judgments in the "Tang Law and Discussion", which generally depends on whether the circumstances are serious or not, and whether the case is bad or not.

Wannian County is said to be a county, but in fact, the Wannian County Order corresponds to the first level of local assassination, so Yun Chu felt that Huang Peng's son had no brains to do it, and he also made the locality, and the government was very passive.

As a result, a judgment was approved after Master Liu, Zhang Jia and the criminals discussed a stick of incense.

After letting the bitter lord see the murderer's appearance clearly, he confirmed it, and after another cup of tea, five heads were cut off.

The head was sent to the bitter masters of the paper workshop, and they were ready to take it back as a pig's head to pay tribute to the dead.

Master Liu also ordered that the Chang'an Li's family be copied, and the money and property sold were compensated to the bitter master.

On the contrary, Huang Peng's family wealth was not dealt with at the beginning, Huang Peng died in a fight, and the culprit was the chief.

As for the steward of the paper-making workshop, because he had committed suicide in fear of sin, he was given a light sentence and fined 500 copper.

Helan Minzhi was originally from Luoyang, and the four dishes and one soup arranged for him by Yun Chu were naturally mostly Luoyang flavors, but the characteristic of Luoyang was the soup water table, and every dish was very unpleasant.

However, when the first meatball soup was served, Helan Minzhi smelled the sour and spicy taste of the soup, and actually hid his face and shed tears.

After the five soups were eaten, Helan Minzhi held Yun Chu's hand and kept calling him a confidant, and he had to have another big bowl of noodles to relieve his homesickness.

This kind of Helan Minzhi is very normal, sociable, can disguise, there is no lack of sophistication at all, and even more cheerful than before, and there is more heroism unique to plateau people.

Looking at Dunzhu who was holding a roast suckling pig and gnawing on his mouth, Helan Minzhi showed a pampered face, and wiped the fat on the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief.

"Brother Yuchu, the younger brother came this time, of course, for the sake of the clumsy production, in addition, a certain family also wants to complete the trade between Xiaobolu and the Western Regions through Brother Yuchu."

Yun Chu put down the chopsticks in his hand and nodded: "Whether there is communication or not has always been the thinking of a certain family, but how to trade, I don't know if Brother Helan has any regulations." ”

Helan Minzhi said with a smile: "Xiao Bolu is very poor, and there are no special specialties, such a country wants to trade with the Tang Dynasty, it is always a little overwhelmed, but what about it, Xiao Bolu is good because of the geographical location."

In the south of Xiaobolu, there are many rich countries, as long as Brother Yu Chu is willing, we can even join forces to go south and go to Tianzhu, the golden country in the mouth of Master Xuanzang. ”

Yun Chu shook his head with a smile and said: "The big cannibal also has the same idea, but he was rejected by His Majesty, since it is something that His Majesty does not agree to, in my place, I will naturally not agree." ”

Helan Minzhi said: "In fact, there is no need for Brother Yu Chu to send people, the manpower under the command of a certain family is enough, but a certain family is now short of gold and iron, armor, and weapons, if Brother Yu Chu can move the court and provide us with these things, in the future, but if there is something gained, a certain family will naturally double the compensation of the court." ”

Yun Chu smiled and said nothing......

Dunzhu dropped the roast suckling pig in his hand, wiped his greasy hands on his robe, and said to Yun Chu: "I know that you Tang people are greedy for money, what I have in my hands is gold, agate, I give gold, agate, you give armor." ”

Yun Chu ignored Dunzhu and looked at He Lanminzhi with a smile; "What does Brother Helan think? Do you think that with useless things such as gold and agate, you can exchange for my Datang's armor and blades? ”

Helan Minzhi sighed and said: "Today's Tang Dynasty is rich all over the world, gold, silver, pearls and jade, hungry and thirsty and thirsty, it is indeed presumptuous. ”

Yun Chu pointed with his finger in the direction of Zhuque Street outside the county government and said: "Gold, silver and copper, there is no shortage in Datang." ”

Dunzhu looked at Yun Chu and said, "Is your money really so much that it's useless?" He actually took copper to cast oxen. ”

Yun Chu smiled and said to Dunzhu: "There are twenty-four now, and there may be one hundred and eight in the future, or even more." ”

Dunzhu picked up the roast suckling pig again and took a bite and said: "You are indeed very rich, the food is delicious, well, the clothes on the women outside are also beautiful." ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: "Since Madam likes Chang'an, haven't you thought about settling in Chang'an?" ”

Dunzhu turned his head to look at Helan Minzhi, and it could be seen that the prosperity of Chang'an was very attractive to this Tibetan woman.

Helan Minzhi shook his head slowly and said: "Back then, a certain family sold their wealth and left Chang'an, if they came back to live in peace, wouldn't it become the biggest joke in the world?"

The ancestral house that was sold at a cheap price in the past has now risen more than five times in market price, and people can't help but sigh at the impermanence of the world. ”

Yun Chu looked at Helan Minzhi and said with a smile: "Aren't you going to go to Luoyang to meet Your Majesty?" In any case, the sheep will change together, as the son of Datang and his relatives, you are a meritorious hero to Datang. ”

Helan Minzhi said with a smile: "I once met Princess Wencheng in Luo, and the princess said that I am afraid that I will never be able to return to Chang'an in this life."

And ask me that if she dies, I hope I can take care of the Tang craftsmen she brought with her.

Before the Yangtong was born, I had sent people to snatch back some of the craftsmen, but unfortunately, when I crossed the Kunlun Mountain Tunnel again from Yangtong, I lost a large part.

So, after I left, Princess Wencheng's situation was very bad, I heard that she had moved to the Jokhang Temple to worship the Buddha, and she hadn't come out for a long time, and she didn't know whether she was dead or alive.

When Princess Wencheng returned to Chang'an, she originally intended to retire in Chang'an, but the emperor did not allow it, so she had to return to Luo, and there was no good end after all.

If I go to Luoyang again, not only will Your Majesty not like it, but even my aunt will not like it, and they all say that the water spilled by the married woman, if you can't do something beneficial to Datang, it will be difficult to return to your home after all. ”

Yun Chu stood up and said, "I am very happy that you came to Chang'an to look for me, but I am just happy."

Today's Tang Dynasty is invincible in the world, whether it is His Majesty or courtiers, they have lost interest in expanding their territory.

Even the people think like this, if you want to use the power of Datang to lay a world for yourself, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. ”

Helan Minzhi sighed and said, "Even a character like Yuchu is no longer enterprising?" ”

Yun Chu said with a smile: "Today's Datang is different from the Tang Dynasty in the past, non-profit will not move troops, and non-Dali will not go on an expedition.

Therefore, if Helan still has ambitions unpaid, he must come up with benefits that can move the hearts of His Majesty and courtiers. ”

Helan Minzhi smiled bitterly and said, "Sure enough, people's hearts are not ancient. ”

Yun Chu, who is not ancient in the Tang Dynasty, only knows that the current Datang has entered a wonderful balance, and the force that maintains this balance is various interests.

In the past, the Tang people were relatively short-sighted, and all they sought were the benefits that could be seen in front of them, but now it is different, everyone has unconsciously become rich, and their horizons are much higher.

If Helan Minzhi can't get the benefits, then he can't take anything from Datang.
