Chapter 678: Uighur Khan
After a beautiful sleep, Zongxin and his party got up to eat. A large number of people gathered around the three tables, because Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin's true qi was restored, their injuries would heal faster, and their bodies were no longer in serious trouble, so their appetite increased greatly, and they were not afraid of wasting the dishes one by one.
This is also one of the great advantages of Zongxin, he doesn't know how much money he has, and he doesn't care how rich he is. Thousands of taels are just a number for him, and he has no concept of money at all. And I always think that the people around me spend too little money, and I always worry about this matter, when will the money be spent?
The reason why Zong Xin is so generous is not only because he is rich, but also because Zong Xin makes money every time he goes out, whether he encounters robbers or bandits, or pits some rich people. As long as Zong Xin went out once, instead of spending the money he originally brought, he would earn a lot of money and go home...... This also made Zongxin's money more and more spent.
In the restaurant, Zong Xin and his entourage had no etiquette at all, a large group of people were drinking with their fists, and the other people around them were annoyed by these Central Plains people, and the movement of eating was too big. In fact, the Uighurs are similar, and they are happy as well, but there are some regional prejudices in each place, so they are not used to looking down on these Central Plains people.
Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin drank a lot of wine, because they would use the drunken and carefree heart method, no matter how much they drank, they would not get drunk, but it would be beneficial to their own skills.
"The amount of wine is good...... Suddenly someone at the table next to him admired: "This two have drunk two jars of wine, their faces are not red, and they can speak clearly." Dare to ask the two heroes, can the people of the Central Plains drink like this?"
"Didn't a group of Central Plains businessmen come a few days ago? Don't you know how much people from the Central Plains can drink?" Zong Xin said with a smile: "We people can't drink enough, but it's no problem to drink ten or eight altars." ”
When Zongxin said this, those who knew him cast contemptuous eyes. Knowing that he has a drunken and carefree mind to protect himself, no matter how much he drinks, he will not get drunk, at most his stomach will swell. Zongxin deliberately said this, saying that the Central Plains people were very powerful, and how many Uighurs would desperately toast the Central Plains people in the future? Who will suffer it then?
"Can you drink ten altars and eight altars?" don't believe ......it," the person at the table next to him said: "I am very confident in the amount of alcohol I drink, anyway, I am alone today, why don't I fight for wine?"
"Come on, come on, drink from this table. Zong Xin only noticed at this time that this person was quite handsome, and suddenly felt a little regretful. What if he takes a fancy to his wife? Even if it's not his wife, it's not good if he takes a fancy to Zhao Kuangyin's wife. Of course, there is another possibility, and this possibility Zong Xin has already encountered it, what if he takes a fancy to himself?
Zongxin's words have been exported, and it's too late to take it back now, this kind of thing is really troublesome. Zongxin has always believed that it is definitely not a good thing for a young handsome guy to take the initiative to talk, and he must pay attention to it in the future.
When you drink and drink happily, you will always make a little mistake whether you are drunk or not, and the same is true for Zongxin. directly called others to his table, this person was quite shameless, and sat directly between Zong Xin and Zhao Kuangyin, looking at these two people with great admiration.
"Let's do three bowls first. After finishing speaking, this person directly picked up the wine bowl and poured himself three bowls in a row. In terms of the amount of alcohol that the average person drinks, this person is indeed quite powerful, and he drinks like water.
After drinking three bowls, he immediately arched his hand and said, "Dare to ask what the two of you are called?"
Zong Xin said: "Under Lei Tianxin." ”
Zhao Kuangyin said: "Under Zhao Jiuzhong." ”
"In Xia Jingqiong, I am fortunate to be lucky. ”
"Fortunately, there will be bribes. ”X2
A few people took the wine and started drinking, you have a bowl, I have a bowl, no one leaks, no one too much. In this way, the three men drank ten more jars of wine and ate two roasted whole sheep.
The whole restaurant was watching them perform, and these three people could indeed drink, but except for Zheng Ziming, everyone else in the audience also drank, and none of them showed any traces of getting drunk, and everyone was very sober. The Uighurs in the restaurant are stupid, is this the amount of alcohol that the Central Plains people drink? It's terrible, the Central Plains people drink like this, and the grain they harvest is used to make wine, and the others have to starve to death.
Jing Qiong admired: "Okay, the two of you have a good amount of wine." I am very impressed under the next, and this meal is under the please. It should be regarded as a wine for the guests of the Central Plains. ”
"Then it is better to be respectful than to obey. Zong Xin didn't stop either, because judging by how this person was dressed, he should be a very rich person. After the severance of the Silk Road and the fall of the Tang Dynasty, the Uighurs did not have the ability to make silk brocade silk on their own, so the people here generally wore cotton and linen products, and the high-grade silk clothes worn by this person were very rare in the Uighurs.
This kind of silk is common in the Central Plains, although it is a high-grade silk, but the price in the Central Plains is not high, but the price of silk outside the customs has skyrocketed, and it has reached the extent that ordinary rich people can't afford it.
At first, the Uighurs received high-end goods from the Central Plains from the Silk Road, but later because of the Anshi Rebellion, the Uighurs were rewarded with a silk horse contract. Every year, the Uighurs paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty with 100,000 horses, and the Tang Dynasty gave the Uighurs one million pieces of brocade silk.
Later, however, the Tang Dynasty often defaulted on the payment of brocade silk, which also completely offended the Uighurs. Because this was the only way for the Uighurs to obtain the brocades, which were sold at a sky-high price to the Uighurs, whether they were used for their own use or sold to foreign nations, the Uighurs could make a lot of money. It's just that at that time, the Tang Dynasty couldn't give the Uighurs millions of brocade silk due to the Anshi Rebellion, so they could only be in arrears.
The Uighurs did not agree and broke with the Tang Dynasty unless they handed over the brocade silk they owed. Without the support of the Uighur war horses, coupled with the internal and external troubles of the Tang Dynasty, it even perished. Although the demise of the Tang Dynasty was not directly related to the Uighurs, it can also be seen from this that the Uighur people loved the Tang Dynasty brocade silk. Therefore, the Uighur people welcomed the re-entry of the Silk Road.
In fact, at this time, Zongxin and his party were still wearing Central Plains costumes, and they were all very high-grade silk products, and these clothes on them alone were enough to attract attention, because the Uighurs knew very well the benefits and value of silk, and they were enviable when they looked at it.
The good things could be seen at a glance, and Jing Qiong also knew that silk was not a high-end commodity in the Central Plains, but it was very expensive in the Uighurs. This is just the first stop after the customs exit, the further west you go, the more expensive it becomes, which is why the Silk Road has such a strong attraction.
"This brother, I look at your face, your temperament is by no means ordinary. If I hadn't looked at me...... Zongxin suddenly whispered: "You have the order of a human king and a landlord. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present turned black with fright, but Jing Qiong, after all, was a local, and he was a person with status, he was just frightened and his face turned white.
"You...... How do you see that?"
Zong Xin said: "There is a technique of face-to-face fortune-telling, this place is not too far from the Central Plains, you shouldn't have heard of such a thing." ”
Jing Qiong was really taken aback, it was clear that it was the first time they met, and she took the initiative to find them, and she just wanted to fight with these people...... I really didn't expect to be broken by someone.
Jing Qiong wanted to leave just now, but when he was so frightened by Zong Xin, all the alcohol emanated from his pores, and at this time Jing Qiong's brain was very clear, and he could be sure that he had heard correctly.
Why? Why can you know a person's identity and future by looking at your own face? Jing Qiong knew about this kind of magic in the Central Plains, but she didn't understand what was going on at all. And I heard that people who can do this kind of magic are either masters or liars.
Jing Qiong took a closer look at Lei Tianxin's state, he didn't look like a liar, but he didn't look like a master either. Looking at his state, he should be the one who was left behind by the big caravan last time, although I don't know what the reason is, but he doesn't look like he is in a hurry to catch up with the Central Plains caravan last time.
What is he saying this for? Jing Qiong looked at Zong Xin with a different expression.
Zhao Kuangyin directly arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty...... This place should be called Khan, right? Since my friend said that you can be the emperor of this place, then it must work. My friend has never failed to speak, and your identity should be very special. ”
Jing Qiong whispered, "You trust him so much?"
"If I hadn't believed him, I'd have died a long time ago. Zhao Kuangyin said: "What is your identity, and by the way, what is the name of the current Uighur Khan?"
Zong Xin said: "Yizhou is similar to Shazhou Dunhuang, which used to be under the jurisdiction of Hexi, so this is the scope of the Hexi Uighurs, and the current Khan should be sealed by the Later Jin Dynasty, Fenghua Khan, right." ”
"That's right, the vicinity of Yizhou is under the jurisdiction of Ge Renyu, the Khan of Fenghua. Jing Qiong said: "There is still a big difference between my name and Ge Renyu, why can I be a khan?"
"I don't know about this...... Zong Xin said: "Anyway, you have the order of the king and landlord of the dynasty, and it is fate to meet today, and I am afraid that I will call you a khan when I see you in the future." ”
"Good eyesight, it is the seventh son of Fenghua Khan Ge Renyu, Ge Tiancheng. Jing Qiong admired it very much, because he had not introduced his true identity, and these Central Plains people rarely came to Yizhou, so it was the first time he met this group of people, and he had no chance to know his true face before that. The most important thing is that this time they took the initiative to talk, and they were not willing to talk to each other, so they didn't come for themselves.
The most important thing is that Jing Qiong is very confident in being a khan, because the khan has arranged ten major problems, and the person who can complete all these ten problems is the next khan. Jing Qiong's wisdom and martial arts are better than those of several elder brothers, but there are still some difficult problems that cannot be completed.
But since this can be seen, it proves that this person is not simple. I haven't heard of the name Lei Tianxin, after all, I don't have much communication with the Central Plains, but look at the appearance of this person...... It should be quite powerful, otherwise how could there be so many beauties around?
