Both Aza and Andodow's lives have entered a new stage, and Youzhou's side began to accelerate towards a future like a barrel of dynamite when Hua Wenling set off......

Since the Moon Dynasty in Youzhou, successive dynasties have built continuous city walls in Youzhou to defend against attacks from the north, and later part of the city walls were also built in Yunzhou and Zezhou, but they are not as dense and continuous as Youzhou. These continuous city walls form a structure of five semicircles wrapped in turn, and finally Youzhou is firmly wrapped in it. This kind of wrapping formed a five-stage defensive structure, which meant that the enemy outside Kyushu would have to break through the long city wall five times to enter Youzhou.

Youzhou's mutual market is also under this continuous city wall, there are two places in the mutual market, one mainly receives the caravan of the Jiufang Kingdom, and the other is to receive the Jixian Kingdom, the caravan of the Water Moon Country, this year, the mutual market on the side of the Jiufang Country is in charge of the orange general soldier, and the Jixian Kingdom and the Water Moon Country are the Zhenbei King himself......

Originally, the place where a few small caravans were usually arranged to trade was suddenly expanded dozens of times, and the grass with the area of seven or eight football fields was fenced off. Every piece of land within the fence is clearly demarcated, and there is a large area on the periphery where herders and their cattle and sheep are gathered. Every caravan that arrives in advance in Youzhou is lined up in a regular manner to do registration, in addition to registering they also have to take out their own goods, so that the soldiers at the border can be inspected, for the perishable goods that are easy to perish, the implementation is the method of random inspection, the proportion of sampling inspection is different according to the different types of goods, generally speaking, most of them are between twenty and one hundred draws.

In the place where the mutual market belongs to the side of Youzhou, in addition to the caravans that arrived and registered early, there are countless soldiers guarding them. Some of these soldiers maintain order, some are in charge of registration, and some are inspecting goods. The soldiers who inspected the goods, they were divided into many teams, each team had two or three wolfdogs.

These wolfdogs have a keen sense of smell and will take their owners over whenever they smell something wrong, and then pull some of the prohibited goods out of the goods brought by the merchants. Over the years, due to the accumulation of various reasons, the classification of prohibited goods has also been varied, some are prohibited because they can be used for military purposes, some are prohibited because they are believed to help enhance the fertility of the opposite group, some are prohibited that will promote luxury, and some are temporarily banned by the royal family for some personal reasons.

Some of these things that are not allowed to be traded on the mutual market pose a small threat, and for objective reasons, the border army and the officials in charge of management will actually turn a blind eye, but now it is not such a time, even the metal copper pot will be personally sunk into the water by soldiers to see if the volume of the discharged water matches its weight, and those thick, one-piece goods, there are soldiers holding special sharp long needles pierced into it, leaving an imperceptible small hole to confirm whether there is a problem inside.

Feng Changling, who was watching this scene, and the leaders of the five other caravans gathered by him all had gloomy faces, but the reasons for their gloom were different.

And on the city wall above Feng Changling's head, the king of Zhenbei stood there holding the corner of the wall, looking at the mutual market that was about to open in an orderly manner, nodded, and then turned his head and asked: "Has the smell of the destroyed residue and poppy flowers made all the dogs smell it?"

"Lord Wang, I've smelled it all!"

"That's good!" King Zhenbei blamed himself in his heart, the last time he intercepted it, the number of ox carts destroyed was as many as dozens of ox carts, he actually failed to stop one, if he could prevent the destruction of one of them, then things would be very different, right!?

According to all inferences, the dependence on that drug should be extremely strong. You must be cautious this time, such a large amount, I am so blocked at the border, there must be a shortage of goods on the Demon Road side recently. It's a pity! I have come to the border secretly for so many days, and I still haven't caught the suspicious place! Now I look at this mutual market, I hope they don't go to the border of Yunzhou and Zezhou, if only those two states could be the same as here!' I thought so in my heart, but in terms of action, I would never take any action against Yunzhou and the king of Zezhou Zhenbei, the last time I intervened in Yunzhou, it was an order from the imperial court, and this time-

"Master Jun, isn't it a little too long for this inspection, we have brought some goods-"

"This shopkeeper, it's useless for you to tell me, I will do things according to the rules!"

"But there hasn't been anything like this in previous years!?" Pingshengguo said with a bitter face.

"Previous years are previous years, and this kind of scrimination began months ago. ”

"But that's only a few caravans, so many of us, so many goods. Master Jun, you don't wait for anyone at this time!" said Pingshengguo, who stepped forward and grabbed the soldier's hand, and secretly stuffed a piece of silver into the soldier's hand.

"Don't be afraid, we have a lot of troops this time! And look at the top of my head!" the soldier smiled, holding the silver nude in one hand and pointing to the top of his head with the other.

"What are you looking at?" Pingshengguo was a little puzzled.

"Do you see the man standing by the wall?"

"I see! There are indeed people, but this seven-zhang high city wall, I can't see people's faces clearly!"

"You can't see clearly that it's your martial arts realm, it doesn't mean that the people above can't see it, but now the prince is personally patrolling the border, what do you say I should do?"

"But isn't the prince exercising the army?"

"How long has it been since this happened?

"This ——, when did this prince come over?"

"That is, two days ago! It was said that the drill was over, and there were many herdsmen wandering on the border recently, and it was a good thing that the prince came over!" The soldier said in his mouth, but he didn't know that the king of Zhenbei had already come, and the reason why he didn't expose it was that he was suspicious of the movements of the three countries opposite this winter, and he didn't want the three countries on the other side to notice it for the time being, and wanted to see what the other side was going to do? It's just that the progress has not been much so far, and in the face of the opening of the mutual market, the king of Zhenbei can no longer continue to stay behind the scenes, Fang Wenqing and Tongwenguang were dragged by Liu Wenwen in Youzhou City, and the mutual market that started in advance must have him in charge!

"Master Jun, you see us coming-" Ping Shengguo said this, and suddenly out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a new team, looking at this team, his words unconsciously weakened!

This new team, one by one, they were dressed in armor and covered with thick snowflakes, and everyone followed closely to the previous one, lined up neatly, like an army. This is a team stationed at the border, established by the border guarding sect, look at the coarse cloth linen clothes on their bodies, the straw sandals under their feet and the ink-colored Lijian on their waists, tell everyone that this is a team formed by a sect with the concept of Mohist! Over the years, it has been difficult for the Mo family to gain a foothold in the court, but they still have a force on the rivers and lakes, like this kind of sect that gives full play to the advantages of the Mo family and has been recognized by the court. Due to the ascetic-like style, it has been relatively difficult for the ranks of these Mojia border guarding sects to expand, except for those near their station, people from other places generally do not join, and there is only one reason, no one is willing to take the initiative to endure hardships.

Seeing this team, Pingshengguo frowned, these Mo family children are not easy to fool, admit death.

"Okay! If there is any contraband, hand it over quickly or send it out of here the same way before being inspected, rest assured! As long as it is not too much, we will only confiscate it and fine some money. The soldier looked at Ping Shengguo, who seemed to have stopped talking suddenly for some reason, and said.

"Thank you, Master Jun. Ping Shengguo said and returned to the heads of several caravans and shook his head at them: "The military master said, either send it back yourself before the inspection, or confiscate it and fine the money." ”

"It's not a big deal, just send it back, I think you might as well take out any inconvenient things and send them to the post warehouse we last encountered, and pay some money to put it away!" Liu Jin of Lang Sword Pavilion opened his mouth and proposed.

"Yes, since there is still some time to search our goods, we might as well send them back. ”

"That's all!"

"yes, why is it so strict this year?"

Feng Changling and Liu Jin, who were with the leaders of these caravans, also nodded.

As a result, five of the six caravans together with Feng Changling's caravan reloaded some of their goods and pulled them back......

"Shopkeeper Martha, you didn't bring prohibited goods?" After the repackaging was completed, a very fat person in charge looked at Feng Changling and said with some surprise.

"There, I originally wanted to bring it, but after all, it was the new big shopkeeper, so I thought it was better to be careful. ”

"Yes, then please trouble the shopkeeper to take care of it more, don't let the good stalls be occupied!" What the fat man said also makes sense, in order to settle those goods that cannot be sold, they have to send people, but they can't weaken the momentum by grabbing a good position here!

"It's easy to say! It's easy to say!" Feng Changling smiled and nodded, and at this time, the Mo family's team also joined the team to inspect the goods......

"Lord Wang!"

"What's wrong?"

"This Mo family's team has never asked them to help search the caravan before!"

"Our army must maintain a certain combat strength at all times, and it cannot all be mixed with these caravans, and now we can only speed up under this strict inspection. What's more, the Mo family and the greedy merchants who admit death are exactly the opponents of chess!" "King Zhenbei is very clear about the movements under the wall, these Mo family disciples have been guarding the border for many years, and they don't need to say many rules, they themselves know it, not to mention that this kind of protection of the frontier is one of the beliefs of the Mo family.

Thinking of some books that the Mo family had recently read on the education and propaganda of their border guards, King Zhenbei's eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes revealed a kind of precaution against the children of the Mo family.
