After getting out of the carriage, the first impression of the samurai was, is this the East Market or the West Market?

On both sides of the wide and flat street, there are shops one after another, and there are almost all kinds of signs selling them.

Behind the shops, most of them are wide and tall warehouses, and many horse-drawn carriages are loaded with all kinds of goods, constantly shuttling back and forth between the shops and the warehouses.

The streets were equally lively, with teams of horse-drawn carts, ox carts, and even manpower carrying queues on their shoulders, carrying goods purchased from Lijiazhuang along the road.

In front of the shops, there are also stalls selling breakfast, repairing wheels, selling hot tea, kneading candy, running horses and selling tricks, selling sugar skewers, and so on.

There is no management here in Datang, and it is encouraged to set up a stall to do business to support the family in Hukou.

People come and go, cars are like flowing water, hustle and bustle, shouting, greeting and laughing, bargaining and many other sounds come together, but it is not the appearance of the West Market.

"Dare to ask, but in front of the Duke of Yingguo?" Zuo Hong, whose face was full of flesh and made the wound on his face more hideous, stepped forward with a smile and saluted, "I am the housekeeper of the village, and I came to greet him on the order of the owner." The carriage and the horse can be deposited here, and I will come with me at the request of the Duke of the Kingdom. ”

The food in Lijiazhuang is so good, you can eat meat every day, not to mention, and you are even more full when you eat.

Zuo Hong works as a housekeeper in Lijiazhuang, not to mention other aspects, this figure is definitely a horizontal development, and he has obviously gained a lot of weight.

Wu Shi Tong looked at the smiling Zuo Hong, looked at the horizontal flesh and wounds on his face, and felt that it was better not to laugh, because it was scary to laugh.

"Hmm." He nodded and motioned for everyone to follow.

Wu Yuanshuang looked around and shouted unhappily, "Since you haven't arrived yet, why don't you let me wait for the horseback?" ”

Zuo Hong glanced at him in surprise, but still explained, "There are many people, cars, and goods here, and riding a horse will only increase the traffic pressure." ”

Wu Yuanqing followed and shouted, "We are honorable, let them give way." ”

Zuo Hong, who said this, sank his face, "It was Lu Guogong and others who came, and they also dismounted in the previous place." ”

Wu Shi Tong hurriedly shut up his stupid son, then changed the topic and asked with a smile, "This place is so prosperous, even the west market in the city is not too much." Why don't you see a powerful work? ”

Laborers are those who carry big bags, helping people transport goods and deliver goods or something to earn some hard money.

"There is no labor force in Lijiazhuang."

Zuo Hong said proudly, "Everyone has a job to do, they are well fed, clothed and warm, and no one can do labor." ”

After speaking, he also explained slightly: "Most of the people who come here to buy things are from various villages and towns, and some of them are idle laborers who come to carry goods during their slack time, and they don't need help from others." ”

"Ayer."

Wu Hua tugged at the hand of the warrior and gestured to the stall of the candy man on the side.

Samurai Tong smiled slightly and pulled the sisters over.

While waiting for the craftsman to do his work, Wu Shi Tong looked around and asked Zuo Hong, "When the old man was in Lizhou, he saw many people in the rivers and lakes making trouble, and there are so many people in the rivers and lakes here, but he has never seen a quick catcher, isn't Zhuang Shang afraid of making trouble?" ”

Zuo Hong was slightly surprised, how is our village, it's your business.

But after all, he was a guest who came to visit, and he still explained, "Guogong may know that there are too many good things in Zhuangzi, not to mention the people in the rivers and lakes, even the Turks and Tuyuhun people have come quietly. His Majesty attaches great importance to Zhuangzi, so he secretly arranges it

There are many people who are guards, and it is impossible to say that this candy pincher is a good man of the Hundred Horsemen. ”

"As for those who dare to make trouble, they have already been arrested and sent to the coal mines, and there is a great shortage of coal in the winter, and the number of people sent to the coal mines is not enough. Those who remain now are cautious for fear of being arrested and going to the coal mine and not being able to get out. ”

Samurai Tong suddenly said, "I see. ”

With the emperor's attention, he secretly sent elite guards to protect it, of course, there was no need to catch it quickly.

Wu Hua and Wu Shun got the candy man, laughed and followed Wu Shi Tong and the others to move forward.

When everyone gradually moved away, the man who pinched the candy man stared at Zuo Hong's back and spat fragrantly, "You are a naggard, you almost cheated Lao Tzu." ”

I don't know if he is a hero, but he is really a hundred horsemen.

Finally came to the end of the road, this is the mansion of Li Yunze, the owner of Lijiazhuang.

It is said that the environment affects people, and Li Yunze is basically in the atmosphere of Chinese culture to be edified, so he is naturally inclined to this environment.

As for what European style and what this move and that posture are, I don't bother to look at it at all.

The renovated mansion is completely in Chinese style, with pavilions and pavilions, withered beams and paintings, red bricks and green tiles, rockery gardens, and everything.

"Is there still living water in this weather?"

Passing by a garden, the samurai was amazed to see that there was not only living water flowing in the pond in this weather, but even fish swimming in the water.

Even if he was surprised by the fact that he had seen too many guests visit, Zuo Hong still nodded proudly and responded, "This is the thermal circulation system designed by our owner, and the whole Zhuangzi is as warm as spring in winter." ”

Over there, Wu Yuanqing pouted, "Isn't it a hot spring, I didn't know what to wait for." ”

"Shut up!"

Samurai Tong was really angry, and when he said this kind of thing in someone's house, he had a problem with his brain, "The hot springs smell of sulfur, and most of them come from the mountains." What kind of hot spring is this, if you don't understand, keep your mouth shut and don't speak! ”

Over there, Zuo Hong snorted, led the way in front with a calm face and stopped talking.

Coming to the living room, Zuo Hong signaled, "The owner of my family is entertaining distinguished guests, and you are here to rest for the time being." ”

Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers wanted to complain again, but they were glared back by Wu Shitong's gaze.

After all, he is a gentleman, he was complimented and grew up in Lizhou, and after coming to Chang'an City, there are many nobles, and it is inevitable that he will be disappointed.

It is natural to regard Li Yunze, who has only a county man, as the target of venting his dissatisfaction.

After all, although the title is low, the face strength and financial resources are far superior to the son of the prince, how can he not be jealous.

Zuo Hong left, and someone brought tea.

Looking at the tea leaves in the glass that were loaded and floated and gradually unfolded, Wu Shitong exclaimed, "When I was in Lizhou last year, there was a caravan that transported this kind of fried tea, and it was said that Lijiazhuang was from Lijiazhuang at that time." I didn't know until now that it was actually sold from here.

”

Seeing the admiration on the old father's face, the Wu Yuanshuang brothers became more and more unhappy, "It's just a small county man, but the shelf is so big." I waited for a visit, but I didn't even show my face. ”

Samurai Tong was also a little puzzled, he was sent in advance, and it stands to reason that he shouldn't be so lazy.

It doesn't look like that kid is a person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat, he must really have a distinguished guest in front of him.

Wu Hua, who was licking the sugar man, was not interested in caring about her brother's careful thoughts, but she was very interested in the many decorations in this room.

The floor was a thick plush carpet that was as soft as stepping into a cloud.

The tea utensils on the table are all transparent glass, which is crystal clear and pleasing to the eye.

She had seen this thing before, and when the daughters of many nobles gathered, there were many female rolls holding glass cups and drinking juice to show off.

Wu Hua pretended not to see it at the time, but he was extremely envious in his heart.

She also has what others have, and she wants to be better!

In this cold weather, the room is as warm as spring, and there are many blooming flowers around.

Not only is the blooming delicate, but the fragrant fragrance is also like a spring breeze.

She was not interested in or understood antique calligraphy and paintings, but the large skylight on the roof and the glass window on the wall attracted her attention.

Crystal clear and beautiful things, she likes them all.

After waiting for a while, I didn't see Li Yunze come out to receive him.

In the past few days since returning to Chang'an City, the Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang brothers, who were angry because of the difference in status and treatment, were already about to be unbearable.

It's really hateful that a county man is so good!

Li Yunze finally came out, still accompanied by an old Taoist priest wearing a shabby Taoist robe.

Wu Yuanqing, who was holding back his anger, immediately clapped his anger and stood up: "Li Yunze! You really have enough support, our martial artist came to visit, and you actually ignored us and went to accompany an old Taoist priest..."

Before he finished speaking, the slap of the warrior over there had already slapped him in the face.

Unable to scold Sha Wither's son, Wu Shi Tong hurriedly stepped forward and saluted the old Taoist, "I have seen Daoist Sun, the discipline is not strict, forgive the sins." ”

Sun Daochang is naturally Sun Sixiang.

He took the materials sent by Li Yunze, and the cattle were sent to the Qinling Mountains to develop smallpox vaccines, and he fought for a long time and finally achieved results.

It was determined that it was completely effective, and after the quarantine period, he came to Li Yunze to discuss the promotion.

Regarding Wu Yuanqing's words, Sun Simiao didn't pay attention to them at all.

He's so old, he's really seen what kind of gentleman he is, this kind of stupidity is not worth mentioning at all.

After waving his hand at the warrior Tong and signaling that it was okay, Sun Simiao smiled at Li Yunze and said, "Then the old Taoist priest will enter the palace to meet Your Majesty." ”

"Hmm."

Li Yunze smiled and nodded, "Such a major event that benefits the country and the people and benefits the world can only be promoted quickly and on a large scale with the support of His Majesty." ”

Sun Simiao, who had a tired face but was in an excellent mental state, nodded and left.

Li Yunze, on his side, glanced at the martial arts family and motioned for everyone to sit down.

"I already know the intention of the Duke of Ying." After Li Yunze sat down, he directly said frankly, "The matter of going to sea to find the Spice Islands is now divided into two situations. ”

"One is to pay money, and the minimum is 10,000."

"Ten thousand?" Wu Yuanshuang couldn't help shouting, "Why don't you grab it?" ”

Glancing at him, Li Yunze said to Wu Shi Tong in a surging voice, "Ying Guogong dotes on his children." ”

The black-faced samurai turned his head and scolded, "If you dare to say more, you will break your leg directly after returning home!" ”

Waste is ignorant and doesn't say anything, and you still want to participate and want to show yourself, who do you think you are?

Samurai Tong muttered slightly, "If you have 10,000 yuan, can you take one percent of the shares?" ”

"Hehe~~~"

Li Yunze immediately laughed, "Ying Guogong, don't be joking, 10,000 guan can only account for one centimeter." ”

"What?!"

At this time, even the samurai Tong was shocked, this is ten thousand.

"The total investment amount of this overseas investment is 2 million guan, Your Majesty accounts for 50%, and I account for 30%. The rest of the nobles account for 20%. ”

"This, this, this..."The samurai didn't know what to say.

The huge amount of money with thousands of dollars in his pocket is not worth mentioning at all in this event.

"If you don't have enough money, it's okay." Li Yunze quietly glanced at Wu Yuanqing and Wu Yuanshuang, the brothers, "You can contribute, that is, you can help." ”
