Chapter 122: Chang'an Comes
After Liang Luoren left, Li Kuan dealt with some affairs of the mutual market and the grassland bank, and then took the initiative to go out and head towards the small market in the pasture mutual market.
Behind him was Fang Ping and a chivalrous man named Luoyang.
Both came out of the assault battalion.
In the small bazaar, there is not a lot of movement of people, and many businesses are bought by their own people, and only a small number of people are Turkic.
The Turks now look more directly at the warehouse for what kind of goods, a whole tribe buys a warehouse.
To put it bluntly, it's about shopping in bulk and then going for internal distribution.
The reason for this is that Li Kuan has reduced the price of their bulk goods.
Li Kuan came to the bazaar and looked at the men in the bazaar, and his mood was a little unhappy.
"Sure enough, in this grassland market in the feudal era, there are very few women who appear."
"I just don't know if someone will take a risk and drive the Qinglou here, it should be quite profitable, after all, the men stationed here will stay for a month or two, and the pressure is quite high."
As he walked, Li Kuan was thinking about other things.
After seeing Li Kuan, many shopkeepers in the bazaar gave instructions to the guys, and left alone from the trail.
Li Kuan came all the way to the end of the market, where there was a house with the name of the market neighborhood committee written on it, and pushed the door in, dozens of shopkeepers had already gathered inside.
Li Kuan was not polite, he went straight to the innermost main position, and directly commanded: "Two things, the first thing, gather all your raiding teams on the grassland, I have sent a message to Chang'an, they will send a general to Hushi here in the name of a private business trip to take charge of public security, I will form a public security brigade." ”
"The second thing, I will tell the grassland people, you only accept the redemption of the grassland bank now, and if you want to get the redemption, they can only go to the grassland bank to make a deposit, you don't tell me to leak."
"If you say something leaked, I'll blast anyone out of the market."
These shopkeepers looked at each other, understood their own situation, and responded to each other.
They themselves are the people in charge of the house within their respective families, and they still understand how to operate on the grassland.
However, among them, the shopkeeper of the Cui family couldn't help but ask: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, the general sent by Chang'an, will not use our privateer team as cannon fodder, or directly absorb it." ”
The look of worry about the aspect made Li Kuan can't help but scold angrily in his heart,, Lao Li, the reputation of you and your horses is really stinky.
Li Kuan felt that since the other party had such worries, he must have been cheated by someone who lacked morality.
Li Kuan hesitated, and when he was about to explain in embarrassment, the shopkeeper of a small family surnamed Bai next to him said with a sad face: "Also, you won't say that you will train the privateer team well, and then replace us with a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people." ”
The distrust on his face, as well as the situation that came out of his mouth, made Li Kuan so embarrassed that he couldn't do it.
With the leader, the rest of the people also opened their mouths one after another, raising various situations, basically distrusting Li Shimin, fearing that the imperial court would do things that lacked morality, and they would be severely pitted.
In response to their worries, Li Kuan had no choice but to sign the signature, saying that the situation they said would never occur.
Li Kuan even patted his chest and said, everyone, don't you trust them, don't you trust me? When have I ever cheated you.
I, Li Kuan, have always chosen a win-win situation and never gambled on my reputation.
The shopkeeper of the Cui family helplessly apologized to Li Kuan.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu, we don't believe you, we have been cheated many times."
"You've heard what we've just said."
"If you don't pay it back, you will replace the disabled population with a high-quality population, use our people as dead soldiers, and create population damage, and then secretly transfer the population."
"We know that our family is hateful, but we have been cheated many times, so we have to be careful."
Li Kuan nodded, expressing his understanding, it doesn't matter if he signs and draws the charge, anyway, he uses the royal family King Chu, not Li Kuan's name, when something really happens, he doesn't care, there is still the royal family who is behind the blame, who made him sign the royal family King Chu.
Who is called the royal Chu king, who will call such a strange name.
When the time comes, there will be no accidents, nothing will happen, and the plundering team will be honestly returned to this group of families, then he, Li Kuan, as the king of Chu and a royal family, will not gain a lot of reputation for honesty and trustworthiness.
Li Kuan's small abacus clanged.
The security general sent by Chang'an City came quickly, and it was Zhang Gongjin.
This is very fierce in history, and he was his deputy when Li Jing fought the Turks.
One of his greatest achievements in life was to guard Li Shimin's Qin Mansion when he was in Xuanwu Gate, and he overturned Xue Wanche by himself, and guarded Li Shimin's relatives in Qin Wangfu.
He is still handsome who can fight and resist, can be a marshal who can lead the army, can also lead the troops to charge, and is loyal.
Zhang Gongjin is not arrogant yet, and his character is the same as Li Kuan, which has been identified by everyone.
The shopkeepers of the family were relieved to see that the person who came was Zhang Gongjin, this person is good, he can fight and be handsome, and most importantly, he is the only one with good character among Li Shimin's horses.
Zhang Gongjin is smiling at everyone, and he is reasonable.
The only thing that is not good for Li Kuan is that as soon as he came, he took the assault battalion away, became his personal guard, and arranged for people to take turns to protect Li Kuan every few days.
In Zhang Gongjin's words, in order not to affect the senses of the Turks, he brought a few guards when he came, and if he didn't get some loyal guards, he would not be able to command the family's privateer team.
In the face of Lao Zhang's reasonable words, Li Kuan chose to accept it, and he believed Zhang Gongjin once.
The family's privateer team was summoned from all over the world to the mutual market, and Zhang Gongjin personally took over, reorganized and conducted special training.
That's right, Lao Zhang directly started training.
It doesn't matter if he is a private soldier of the family or not, anyway, he has to practice and be able to protect the safety of the mutual market.
Seeing the scene of Lao Zhang's training, the whole person was shocked, and then he couldn't sit still and rushed over to question.
"If you Datang want to provoke a war, you actually led troops to the grassland, and there are 10,000 people with you, it's too much."
He didn't know Zhang Gongjin, he knew very few generals in the Tang Dynasty, basically three, Chai Shao, Xue Wanche, and Wei Chigong.
The first two confronted him on the grassland all the year round, and it was difficult to know him or not, and the latter shaved his head and captured him.
Faced with the questioning of the stubborn mindlessness, Li Kuan sneered: "Which eye did you see that those people had the word Datang official written on them." ”
He was stunned, and then he was even more furious, and he said angrily: "They are wearing armor and training. ”
