Otherwise, people are in good spirits when they are happy and have done things, and along the way, Zhang Han feels that even the air he breathes is extraordinarily sweet.

and Lin

As the location of the Mongolian Khan's court, it is not surrounded by walls like other cities, and at a glance, the continuous tent group is very characteristic of the steppe people.

It's not that there is no building other than tents. It was true that when Mongolia did not have a state.

Later, with the conquest and expansion of the Mongol Empire in Eurasia, subjects from other regions came to live in the capital of Helin and built a variety of buildings with different styles on the grassland that originally only had tents.

"Let's take a walk and take a look! Freshly steamed steamed cake out of the pot. ”

"Guest officer, I've got you inside! A batch of Shaoxing's daughter red just came from there, and the guest officer is right today......

"Linen garments, strong and durable! Honored guest, come and give you a beautiful lady, and God will praise her! ”

“......”

Zhang Han and two guards were walking on the largest commercial street in the south of Helin City.

There are Handi wine shops with red tiles and cornices, Central Asian commercial halls with domes and white walls, and Eastern European dessert shops with white columns and sharp corners.

To tell the truth, although Zhang Han has been coming to Mobei Khanting for almost half a year, except for when he first came to live in Subutai Mansion, he and Li Xiaohu, Wang Da came here to purchase some daily necessities. The rest of the time is either the upper value or the practice of martial arts. I have a lot of time every day, and I don't even have time to go shopping. Zhang Han, a commercial street in Nancheng, has only come for the second time.

Zhang Han, who had been here once, still felt very strange about everything in front of him again.

It's hard to imagine that in a 13th-century shopping street, you could see people of most races in the world today.

Europeans with high noses and deep eyes, Arabs with black eyes and curly hair, black Africans who can only see teeth, Han people with long hair in long shirts and long shirts, Mongolians with high felt hats, and so on.

All kinds of people are doing their own work, and the harmonious Zhang Han even has a feeling of crossing hundreds of years again and arriving at the dream of the Han people, Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.

This is not Chang'an, the Tang Dynasty of the Han Chinese, but the capital of the Mongol Empire.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhang Han felt empty in his heart, even the light yarn man dance in front of him, and the performance of the orchid in his body, Zhang Han was a little lacking in interest.

Due to the regulations in the city, the city did not prohibit horses, so Zhang Han and the two servants behind him did not gallop as usual, but led the horses slowly in the commercial street one after the other.

Xu saw that Zhang Han's two servants were carrying sabers, and the three of them were not dressed like ordinary people. When the people on the street saw it, they all made way to the sides for their masters and servants to pass.

So although Zhang Han and the others led the horses, they didn't walk slowly.

Unconsciously, the commercial street in the south of the city gradually faded away behind the three of them, and the hustle and bustle of the street hawking also left their ears.

Zhang Han and the others got on their horses one after another and ran to the east of the city.

The east of the city is different from the south of the city, if the south of the city is the commercial center of Horin, a prosperous area. Then the east of the city is the pickled place where the three religions and nine streams converge, and the place where the filth and dirt are hidden.

The reason why I say this is not because most of the people who live here are low-level coolies, but because the east of the city is dominated by three industries;

Cattle trade, slave trade, weaponry.

Let's not talk about the livestock trade and weapon building, mainly because of the slave trade engaged in here that makes Zhang Han respond.

In his previous life, the feudal society was broken, and after crossing over, he actually saw the bad habits of the slave era.

Zhang Han should not be in a rut, there is a market means that there is demand, and there seem to be more people in the east of the city than in the south of the city, Wuyang and Wuyang.

With a huge demand and a huge flow of people, a well-known profession is active here. Oh! The current name should be Tooth Man.

The history of the Ya people is very long, and it is recorded in the Western Zhou Dynasty of China. At that time, this kind of intermediary was called "hostage", and in the Western Han Dynasty, it was called "Tan Yu", and it was unified after the Tang Dynasty to be called "tooth people".

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, with the further growth of the commercial economy, the number of tooth people increased greatly, and a special guild was formed, called "Yaxing". During the period of the Republic of China, the tooth people further developed, and some of the tooth people who resold foreign goods were given a new name "compradors" by the Chinese people.

Due to the natural profit-seeking, the tooth people are mostly cunning, and there are harms such as invading the fishing people, bullying and dominating the market, extorting and coaxing, drilling for profit, charging high commissions, and harming the interests of both parties. The people's government began to rectify and ban the dental industry. After the establishment of the exchange, the tooth shop and the tooth man gradually disappeared from the public eye.

After that, the commercial intermediary organizations that replaced the dental bank mainly existed in the form of various exchanges, trust companies, brokers, etc.

The purpose of Zhang Han's coming to the east of the city today is also inseparable from the three major industries here.

Because he knew that the war was about to be fought, Zhang Han wanted to choose a group of loyal guards to protect himself, that is, the kind of "family ding" in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Now that Zhang Han has held the position of a thousand households in the cowardly Xue army, does he still lack the protection of his own soldiers? The answer is "missing".

The reason why Zhang Han wants to recruit family members is because family members have three qualities that are pro-soldiers; "Loyalty", "Force Value" and "Growth".

What kind of person can have all three of these conditions at the same time?

Zhang Han already has a draft in his heart, that is, a young man, to be exact, a young man over 15 years old and under 20 years old, with strong blood.

And Zhang Han is going to get 30 at once, and take advantage of the time before the Western Expedition to practice well.

As soon as I entered the slave market, I saw that the periphery of the tents, large and small, was full of people, and from time to time slaves were brought out of the tents by human traffickers. For onlookers to pick from. These slaves, men, women, old people, and children, all of them, dazzled Zhang Han.

After dismounting, Zhang Han handed the horse to the servant behind him, and after he picked the place with the most people, he got into it through the gap in the crowd.

I saw that a man dressed in black with a centipede-like scar on his face was breaking the mouth of a blonde woman and introducing it to the onlookers in a loud voice;

"Authentic white slave girl, the spoils of the Roman Empire in Europa, at the age of fourteen.

Look at this pretty appearance, look at this fair skin, and look at this neat tooth mouth. Everyone is an insider, so there is no need to say more about the quality of the goods, right? ”

As soon as the scar-faced trafficker's words fell, several people immediately walked out of the crowd and stepped forward to grope the slave girl up and down. The man with the scar was not only not annoyed, but also grinned and let the guests inspect the goods.

In Zhang Han's eyes, in the face of strangers' touching and judgment, the young white girl didn't have the slightest intention of resisting, and in her eyes during the whole process, Zhang Han could only see one emotion - numbness!

Suddenly, a fat man dressed as a Han among the inspectors shouted loudly;

"Isn't that right? I said Scar, this woman is not a child at first glance. You can only be regarded as a red man when you get it back, you want twenty taels of silver, and it's a little darker! ”

When the scar man heard this, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and he sneered at the fat man with disdain; "Twenty taels can only buy this grade, you go and inquire, when did I, Kosajian, make a guest suffer?

Dong shopkeeper! If you can't see it, don't block the eyes of other guests, and if you want to look for children, you can look elsewhere.

Don't blame me for not reminding you that the price of a childish child with the same appearance like this will increase tenfold. ”

After Scarface finished speaking, he stretched out two fingers and shook them at the other party with a tenfold gesture.

The shopkeeper Dong was about to open his mouth to say something, but he saw the man with the scar, his eyes glared at him fiercely, and when he saw that he couldn't take advantage, he had to flick his sleeves and squeeze out of the crowd.

Zhang Han glanced curiously in the direction the other party left.

I saw that after the shopkeeper Dong came out of the crowd, he spat in the direction of the man with the scar, and then walked towards the tent next to him with a stagger. It seems that we will continue to look for new products.

In the end, the white slave girl was bought by a guest dressed as a Hu merchant, and after watching the two settle the money and goods, and Hu Shang left with the newly bought female slave with a smile on his face, Zhang Han immediately opened his mouth to stop Scarface, who turned into the tent.

"Xhosajian, yes! Don't be busy yet, this thousand households are looking for you for something. When Zhang Han spoke, his voice was quite arrogant.

His arrogant posture quickly attracted the attention of everyone in the audience to himself.

Scarface heard the shouts and stopped. Maybe it was a business just now, or maybe it was the identity of a thousand households that Zhang Han said.

The trafficker, named Xhosajian, turned around and stopped talking to the shopkeeper Dong with a grim expression. I saw that his scarred face quickly squeezed out a trace of an ugly smile, trotted over and saluted Zhang Han with a fist, and asked;

"The general's eyes are tight, where do you serve? What are the instructions for finding villains? ”

Zhang Han glanced at the other party and said lightly; "Zhang Mou served in the army of thousands of households in Cowardice, and he is the forehead of the climax princess, it is clear enough! I'm coming to you today for a deal, so hurry up and find a secluded place. ”

Scarface was shocked when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed.

At this time, how can you still see the slightest bit of viciousness just now, after knowing Zhang Han's identity, there is only flattery left on his face;

The villain guessed that there was good luck today in the morning, but he didn't know where this good luck came from, but he didn't expect that there would be a noble person coming to the door, and the noble man would come with the villain. After speaking, he bent down and stretched out his hand and asked Zhang Han to enter the tent with him. Before leaving, he turned around and made a gesture to the crowd behind him;

"I'm sorry everyone, that's all for today, you can come back tomorrow with your guests."

Zhang Han turned to the servants outside the crowd and gave an order, and followed Xosa Jian towards the tent. It wasn't until the backs of the two disappeared into the tent in front of them that the crowd of onlookers exploded.
