Ankang is located between the two major mountain ranges of Qinling and Daba Mountain, and the narrow strip of the Hanshui River Valley, surrounded by mountains, heavy mountains, large and small clans and barbarian tribes are distributed among the mountains.

Not to mention the superior living environment, these clans and tribes are also full of competition between each other, and only by showing enough strength can they enjoy the resources and privileges in this area.

The Ankang Li clan is the leading force in the region, and its clan power and the population of people near and far are tens of thousands, distributed among the counties of Ankang and Weixing. Anyone who makes a living here can not know the Southern Liang and Northern Wei Dynasty, but they must not know the Ankang Li family.

The privileged position enjoyed by the Li clan in the territory of Ankang is reflected in various aspects, such as the narrow valley area on both sides of the Han River is all occupied by the Li clan, and if other forces do not have the consent of the Li clan, it will be difficult for a single piece of wood to enter the water in this territory.

But it was the head of the Hao Sect who had such a majestic local power that was quietly kidnapped in his lair, which was a great humiliation for the Ankang Li family, and at the same time, it also made other forces in the territory that had been suppressed by the Li family begin to move.

Li Qianzhe disappeared for several days, and when he reappeared in his clan's territory, he carried several bloody heads, all of whom were leaders of forces that had been in conflict with his clan in gold mines or waterways.

Only then did the crowd realize that the so-called disappearance was only to lure people to show their feet and launch an attack, and those who wanted to provoke the Li clan all died down, while some who still hesitated were full of joy.

Li Qianzhe's strong return shocked the hearts of all the people in the country, but he and his cronies understood what the truth was. In order to prevent such a thing from happening again, Li Qianzhe purged the personnel within the clan and added many repair measures.

Although this encounter was thrilling, it was an out-and-out shame for a powerful man like him, and he was ashamed to recall it, and some inconsequential insiders were also driven out of his sight for various reasons.

But when his family asked what to do with those who returned to Ankang with him, Li Qianzhe was still a little undecided.

"King Yueyang dared to send someone into the country to capture my brother, which shows that he despised my family to the extreme. He colluded with the enemy, humiliated the border generals, and acted wildly, and sooner or later disaster will befall him! My family is in this situation, and the mountains and fields are enough to support themselves, and my brother really doesn't have to work with such people. If there is really a calamity that comes, King Yueyang will never be sympathetic to my family, and it is advisable to stay away!"

After listening to his brother's experience, Li Qianzhe's brother Li Xian strongly objected to his brother's observance of that bullshit covenant.

In his opinion, the king of Yueyang showed contempt for their family from the beginning, and did not put each other on an equal footing, and if the matter really involved huge interests, he might not abide by the decision to divide the interests equally.

Especially in the eyes of people who are familiar with the current political situation in Southern Liang, the identity of King Yueyang itself contains a big crisis, and his people have done such a deviant thing.

For ordinary people who are eager to get ahead, they may be able to bet with their lives and follow others to gamble, but their Li family has been operating in Ankang for several generations and has their own way of life, so there is really no need to mess with this muddy water!

Li Qianzhe couldn't help but sigh after listening to it: "Today's Supreme is getting older and darker, and he used to be gullible in the north and lightly provoked and ventured into Huaibei, and used inhuman people, so that the army was defeated and humiliated the country. In the middle of the kingdom, the kings were assigned to each victory, trying in vain to control the heroes with their descendants, but they forgot the truth that chaos was born in the court.

Counting the previous dynasties, all the sons of the sect were in internal strife, each at war, and then taken advantage of by outsiders! There is no great virtue in the Liang family, and looking at the behavior of King Yueyang, I am afraid that it is not exempt from this. If you stay away, you can indeed avoid being implicated."

[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]

The mountain does not look like a vulgar stream, there are rules and regulations in words and deeds, and there is wisdom in handling things. Because of this man's work, I thought I might as well give it a try, and if it didn't go well and the results didn't go as expected, it wouldn't be a big harm to pull out.

Out of the mountains and wilderness, after all, there is an end, and the circulation of things can be endless. Although King Yueyang is full of thorns, he is also shrewd, and his people are still willing to listen to Li Boshan's plans, why don't I dare? If it really goes well, it can also open up another source of business for my family."

"The western region is narrow and poor, and it is subject to the Kanto region all the year round. That Li Boshan is just a lucky disciple for a while, he is not a powerful man in his country, and King Yueyang still has the dignity of bloodline in the country, this disciple deserves such attention from his brother?"

Li Xian heard his brother's praise for Li Boshan, and couldn't help frowning and said.

Li Qianzhe laughed again when he heard this, and then said, "It stands to reason that what you said is true, after the collapse of the Imperial Court, the Westerners succeeded them in poverty and weakness, and their struggles were just to protect themselves. Although Li Boshan is the choice of his country for a while, he cannot talk about the best in the world. But this time, I was quite impressed by it, and I wanted to work with him and watch them. It's not a good thing to be nice, but it's not a bad thing."

Hearing the reason given by his brother, Li Xian couldn't help but be speechless for a while, but he couldn't help but be curious. He has regarded his brother as his role model since he was a child, and it is the first time he has seen his brother show such a respectful attitude towards a certain person, and he also wants to see what kind of style this Li Boshan is.

After Li Qianzhe and his clansmen and cronies decided on this matter, they arranged for people and horses to go north along the mountain road on the south side of the Qinling Mountains to wait for the caravan coming from Guanzhong to the south.

In late March, a well-armed caravan of more than 1,000 men finally crossed the Meridian Road and headed south. After receiving the news from the eyes and ears distributed at the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains, Li Qianzhe led his subordinates and Zhao Yan, a protégé sent by Li Tai, to meet this caravan together.

The leader of the caravan was Li Xiaoyong, who stayed in Chang'an, and now Li Xiaoyong is mainly responsible for personnel development and liaison outside the official face, such as going west to Longyou along the ancient road of Chencang to loot temples, and hoarding grain in various parts of Guanzhong.

Long before Lord Lang issued the order, Li Xiaoyong had already begun to arrange personnel to investigate several mountain roads from the south of the Qinling Mountains, and after receiving the news that Jingzhou had returned through the Wuguan Express Horse, he personally led a team to extract a batch of spot goods directly from Chang'an, and crossed the mountains and mountains along the Meridian Valley Mountain Road in the rugged area, and it took seven or eight days to come to the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains.

Li Qianzhe didn't know Li Xiaoyong, but Zhao Yan, who was traveling with him, knew him and several Longyou villagers who came south with him.

Li Qianzhe's family is powerful, and he also has a separate manor in the foothills of the Qinling Mountains, so he introduced Li Xiaoyong and others into the manor nearby, and then began to inventory the goods shipped this time.

Each of the four parties to each of these tasks was assigned to complete the task, and since it was the first time to cooperate, each of them was more cautious and took the value and quantity of the goods very seriously.

Rao is Li Xiaoyong did not carry many goods this time, and the entire inventory process took several days. As a landlord, Li Qianzhe was heroic, and after the total price of the goods was calculated, it was converted into gold, and he directly delivered more than 130 catties of gold cakes to Li Xiaoyong, and agreed on the time and place of the next delivery.

When the cargo was completed, all the goods were loaded onto the cargo ship, and Li Qianzhe sent his brother Li Xian to personally escort the cargo ship south, docked at Qixing County, and the Taishou Xi Gu took stock of the goods and certified them before continuing downstream. The journey from Ankang to Xiangyang, which is hundreds of miles, only took more than two days to arrive smoothly.

Xiao Jing, the king of Yueyang, was already impatiently waiting at the Xiangyang wharf, and as soon as the cargo ship went ashore, he personally boarded the ship to inspect the goods, and first expressed his dissatisfaction because the number of goods was too small. These goods have not yet filled a cargo ship, let alone sell them in the market, he can eat them directly!

However, when he heard that the next batch of goods would arrive before mid-April, with an interval of only more than half a month, and that the time would be further shortened as the trade route went smoothly, King Yueyang couldn't help but smile, and at the same time handed over the payment for the goods that had already been prepared to Li Xian, who had already secured the goods.

As Xiangyang is here

As a sales center, the goods must be realized here, so according to the agreement, the first few batches of payment are temporarily paid by Yueyang Wang, and after the sale is completed, Yueyang Wang deducts the cost, and the remaining profits are distributed by the families in proportion.

As for the sales channels, there are very strict and clear procedures for the delivery and warehousing of the stores in Xiangyang and the surrounding cities.

Although the Western Wei Dynasty was weak and simple compared to other regimes, when it came to various affairs and procedures, it was far superior to that of the Eastern Wei Dynasty and the Southern Liang Dynasty, which was also the basis for the implementation of the decrees of the early Sui Dynasty to rectify household registration. As an important adviser of the overlord, Li Tai has also made great contributions to this, so he naturally wants to use these excellent work experience in this transnational trade.

After Li Xian received the payment in Xiangyang, he could have returned along the original road of Hanshui, but he was too curious about what kind of person Li Boshan was, so he arranged for his family to return, and he led a team of troops to cross the river from Xiangyang to the north and go to the north.

There was no natural danger between Xiangyang and Chubei, and it was difficult to fortify between the wilderness of Pingchuan, so Li Xian and his party did not need to be very careful to sneak in, they only needed to avoid crowds and crowded places to enter Jingzhou in the Western Wei Dynasty.

However, their group did not have to walk for too long in the north, and even though they were surrounded in the suburbs by a team of knights with neat armor and knives, Li Xian did not have time to ask why his whereabouts were exposed, but he was busy revealing his identity.

After Li Tai, who was in the city, learned the news, he couldn't help but be puzzled, could it be that this Li family brother was tied up and addicted, and he didn't kidnap them and deliver them to the door?
