The next day, the sun had not yet risen, and there was just a glimmer of light in the eastern sky, but at this time, the people of the camel team had already woken up, and the weather was relatively cool in the early morning, just suitable for hurrying, if it wasn't for the need to save Zhao Tiancheng yesterday, these people might have set off, and their destination was Xixia.

In the morning, Zhao Tiancheng had already recovered a lot, although he couldn't recover the absorbed internal force in one night, but the internal force of his own cultivation had also recovered somewhat, at least the pain disappeared when his body moved.

The three girls also came to their senses, but their situation was much better than Zhao Tiancheng's, at least there was no problem in moving after they woke up, but even so, the camel team still vacated two camels for Zhao Tiancheng and the four of them to ride.

While hurrying, Zhao Tiancheng chatted with the middle-aged man in the lead. This middle-aged man's name is Li Minggong, the second in the family, because he often has a very high prestige here, everyone calls him the second master at will, and the two brothers are one in Xixia and the other in Heihan, both of whom have a trading house, and he is responsible for reselling goods back and forth.

The rest of the people are all guards of the trading house, and there are a few single merchants who partner with the merchants, as well as a few translators, the young man is the child of his third brother, this is the first time to set off from Black Khan with their caravan, although he is only thirteen years old now, and when he was a teenager, Li Minggong looked proud.

Zhao Tiancheng could see that it was estimated that this young man might be in charge of this firm in the future. And these people didn't expect Zhao Tiancheng to dare to cross Lop Nur, in fact, this Silk Road should go north after reaching the oasis. Bypass the Tarim Desert and pass through Yizhou, Gaochang. Finally arrived at Yanqi, thus bypassing the desert of death.

After walking for two days, the group was finally able to see Sandbank City from afar. At this time, Sandbank City was an important distribution center for goods, and merchants from the East and West had to stop here, because in addition to the sandbank, they would have to walk a long way and have to be replenished in this place, which also caused the sandbar to be very prosperous. Although the walls of the sandbar are all made of earth, the height of a few zhang is enough to make the enemy fearful, but unfortunately this is now the place of the Tangut people.

When they entered the city, the caravan paid a lot of taxes. After that, Zhao Tiancheng followed Li Minggong to the location of their Li family firm, and the two or three single merchants in the team had already left with their goods at this time, turned the two main streets, and finally saw a very large mansion at the end. But the outside is not very luxurious. At least before entering, Zhao Tiancheng had always thought that this was just a place for them to stay.

But after passing the brown wooden gate, it turned out to be a very large courtyard inside, in which a lot of goods were placed, and on the other side of the open space were some stone locks for martial arts training, plum blossom piles, and so on.

Next to the courtyard is a very large living room, and Zhao Tiancheng feels that there should be a lot of construction area behind it, otherwise how can so many people be arranged.

At this time, a rush of footsteps came out in the back hall of the hall, and a middle-aged man with a good appearance and a scribe's robe walked out with a lot of guards. After seeing Da Li Minggong, he immediately laughed heartily and hugged him tightly.

Doing business on the Silk Road was very dangerous every time. Although they are relatively large trading houses like the Li family trading house, they all have private transactions with the big sand thieves in this area, there will always be some small sand pirate organizations that break the rules.

The middle-aged man immediately walked to the young man's side, hugged the young man tightly, his eyes were a little moist, and he said with a little choked: "It's good to come back!

Li Minggong introduced to Zhao Tiancheng with some embarrassment: "This is my third brother Li Mingliang." ”

Although Zhao Tiancheng didn't have any children himself, he could understand Li Mingliang's feelings, so he didn't care, shrugged his shoulders, and didn't mean anything.

This is Li Mingliang only found out that there are outsiders, usually Li Mingliang would not be so rude, but the young man is the first time to go to business, and he is a little excited to see his son come back safely, you must know that the danger on this road is not only sand thieves, sandstorms, poisonous snakes, poisonous scorpions, they may kill people.

Li Mingliang immediately clenched his fists and said, "It's rude, please come in!" hurriedly beckoned Zhao Tiancheng and the others into the hall.

The host sat down, Li Mingliang immediately ordered people to serve tea, he saw that the second brother was very respectful to the people who came, and he knew that it must not be an ordinary person, although tea is not a rare thing in the Central Plains, but it is a high-priced luxury here, and it is not something that anyone can drink.

Although Zhao Tiancheng has learned a lot of ancient knowledge, he is not very good at tea tasting, so he just took a sip and put it down.

Li Mingliang secretly glanced at Zhao Tiancheng and the others a few times when they were tasting tea, and according to their movements, his demeanor immediately knew, "These people are from the rivers and lakes!"

Li Minggong asked with concern: "I don't know what Shaoxia's plans are?"

Zhao Tiancheng had nothing to hide, and replied: "I have to stay in the sandbank for a few days, and when I have recovered from my internal injuries, I will go south to Tubo." ”

Li Minggong and Li Mingliang glanced at each other, and the light of excitement in their eyes flashed, and Li Mingliang immediately said: "Seeing that Shaoxia is not familiar with this place, it is better to live here for a while first! ”

Zhao Tiancheng saw that the two of them might have something to do and needed his help, plus after all, Li Minggong saved their lives, Zhao Tiancheng couldn't refuse, and replied politely: "Then it's a lot of disturbance!"

Li Mingliang immediately ordered someone to quickly clean a room and arrange a kitchen to make a banquet.

At the wine table, Zhao Tiancheng learned a lot about the Western Xia, although the lord of the Western Xia did not welcome the Han people very much, but he needed Han merchants, which also caused the outbreak of wars between the Western Xia and the Northern Song Dynasty from time to time, but there were not a lot of people-to-people exchanges, and the Han people also accounted for a large part of the entire Western Xia population. However, after going to the street, you can clearly distinguish the difference between the Central Plains and the Tangut people, because the Central Plains people are wearing the traditional costumes of the Central Plains, and when merchants do business with each other, if you are a Han but you dress as a nomad, you will generally be looked down upon, so although Li Mingliang has been living in the Western Xia, the dress on his body is not beneficial to the Central Plains.

The Li family firm is mainly doing the tea business, in the surrounding countries of the Northern Song Dynasty, the demand for tea is very large, but the tea that flows out every year is not much, so here tea is a high-end commodity, only some nobles or big businessmen's families can drink tea, as for the more expensive porcelain business, it is not the Li family firm in the middle of the business can do.

There is no very large network, and it is estimated that if you transport porcelain here, there will be no dregs left that will be swallowed by the people here.

Although he knew a lot of things, he didn't say anything about what he needed Zhao Tiancheng to do, which may be the reason why Zhao Tiancheng's injuries are not good now.

Zhao Tiancheng is really drunk with this meal, Zhao Tiancheng has never been drunk since he was promoted to the congenital, as long as the alcohol enters the body, even if it is not deliberately controlled, it will be dissolved by the internal force, this time the internal force is seriously depleted, and now there is only some internal force in the dantian, which is not enough to spread all over the body.

However, one thing that made Zhao Tiancheng very happy was that the three daughters never slept separately from him again, in modern times, they were all alone in one room, and in ancient times, except for sleeping in the same bed with Huang Rong, Zhao Tiancheng never enjoyed the three daughters when they were together. However, Zhao Tiancheng, who was supposed to be very happy, could only lie on the bed and fall asleep.

When he woke up the next day, Zhao Tiancheng felt like his head was about to crack, and at the same time, his mouth was dry, and he just wanted to get up, but he felt several arms pressed on his body. Zhao Tiancheng looked at it and found that the third girl was lying next to him, smelling the aroma seeping into his nose, Zhao Tiancheng was a little nervous, the demand was relatively strong in the morning, and the three girls were still wearing relatively thin at this time, and the smooth skin was connected.

Turning his head to look, Huang Rong's eyelashes beside him were trembling slightly, he should have woken up, Zhao Tiancheng unceremoniously leaned his mouth over, grabbed Huang Rong's soft lips and kissed them, and the tip of his tongue pried open Huang Rong's teeth, and mixed with her little fragrant tongue.

It wasn't until Huang Rong couldn't stand it anymore and her face was already flushed that Zhao Tiancheng let her go. I stretched out my hand and wanted to climb the peak, but the sky did not fulfill people's wishes, and I was held down by Huang Rong, and said a little shyly: "There are still people!"

Then Zhao Tiancheng felt that the back of his hand was pinched fiercely, and Ren Yingying, who was sleeping next to him, sat up and shouted a little coquettishly: "Don't bully Rong'er!" But when she spoke, Ren Yingying's face was a little red, her eyes flashed, and she didn't know what the real reason was.

Since he can see it and can't eat it, Zhao Tiancheng doesn't want to be offended, he closed his eyes and exhaled deeply, forced himself to lower his lower body, quickly got off the bed, and said, "If you are tired, rest for a while, I'll go out and have a look first!" and then walked out embarrassed.

After leaving the room, he leaned against the door and calmed down before tidying up his clothes and walking towards the front hall.

Behind this is a very large building complex, at least Zhao Tiancheng walked three courtyards to guess the back of the front hall, but at this time, he could hear the shouting sound from the courtyard in front of the front hall very clearly.

The whole front hall is actually divided into two parts, the second half is the place to entertain guests, the decoration is very elegant, there are a lot of calligraphy paintings hanging on the wall, on both sides of the room is the passage to the front half of the front hall, after turning around, it is the front half of the front hall facing the courtyard, it is the place where the business house meets, a Taishi chair is on the main seat, there are a lot of chairs on both sides, the surroundings are also very empty, two very thick pillars support the roof, there are no doors and no windows, just facing the very wide courtyard in front.
