Chapter 227 Capital destroys the country
Every late autumn of the farming people, because of the harvest, the people will have more money and food in their hands, so they are willing to drink a pot of turbid wine, buy half a catty of pig meat, and go home to enjoy the best time of the year happily.

The same is true on the grassland. The autumn is tall and the horses are fat. The happiest time of the year for the herdsmen has also begun.

They will sell some of their livestock in exchange for various goods and hoard food to survive the difficult winter.

And this time is also the harvest season for the grassland merchants.

They will wander around, buy herdsmen's livestock at the lowest price, and sell their own goods at the highest price. Once they enter and exit, they will not worry about it next year.

Grassland merchants are quite envious of their colleagues in Datang, because Datang merchants can do business all year round.

Yujing, who is in his forties, is one of the wealthy merchants in Jibobu, with a solid foundation and strong capital.In order to protect his huge wealth and his caravan, he has more than [-] elite cavalry who claim to be comparable to Khan's guards.There are more than [-] small businessmen and more than a hundred handymen below.

With the addition of these family members, a small tribe of more than [-] people has formed.

In the big tent, Yujing squinted and listened to the accountant's report.

"This year, the weather is good and the weather is good, the pasture is plentiful, so the cattle and sheep are also fat. In this way, the goods we have prepared in advance are not good enough."

The accountant looked up at Yujing, Yujing snorted softly, and the accountant continued: "We have a small caravan that was robbed."

Yujing still didn't move.

This is an expression of anger... The accountant sighed in his heart, not daring to hide anything, "Our people drank too much the night before, so they were defenseless."

Yujing rapped lightly on the table with her fingers.

Da da da……

The accountant lowered his head, sweat gradually appeared from his forehead, and after gathering, it slowly flowed down.The place where the sweat flowed was itchy, but the accountant remained motionless.

Yujing's voice is nice, mellow, echoing in his chest, "Slack."

"Yes."

"What about people?"

Chunlin, the think tank standing beside him, raised his head, "Bring it in."

The curtain was lifted from the outside, and Ning Han, the leader of the more than five hundred elite cavalry, easily carried a big man in with one hand.

Ning Han threw the big man on the ground, "Kneel!"

The big man got up and knelt down like flying, as if Ning Han standing behind him was an evil ghost.

Ning Han pressed the handle of the knife, "Master."

Yujing opened his eyes and glanced at the big man.

"You have violated my trust."

The big man was sweating profusely, kowtowing frantically, "I am willing to die for my master."

"There are as many people as stars trying to die for me."

Yujing asked, "Who did it?"

Ning Han was a little annoyed, "He said he won't speak until he sees the master."

There was a hint of cunning in the big man's eyes, "I know the master will definitely execute me, I just ask the master to spare my family and let them go for three days."

Yujing said slowly, "Those wolves have been hungry for a long time, but it's my master's fault. I brushed his family with honey and roasted them, and threw them in to feed the wolves."

"No!" The big man said in despair, "Damu did it, he did it."

Yujing looked at his fingers with several rings on, and said lightly: "He doesn't need to bake it, just throw it in."

"Master, spare me!"

Ning Han stepped forward, and slapped the big man's lips with his right hand. In an instant, all the teeth of the big man's mouth were knocked off, and the momentum continued, rushing down the man's throat.

Ning Han held the big man with one hand, and respectfully took his leave.

He walked out of the big tent, surrounded by dozens of guards.

"Take down his family, smear it with honey and bake it."

"Woooooo!" The big man shook his head desperately, his eyes full of despair.

Ning Han carried him to a tent on the edge of the camp.

There was a low whimpering sound inside.

Someone lifted the curtain, and Ning Han walked in.

The tent is not small, and inside is a huge iron cage.

There were more than a dozen wolves lying or standing in the iron cage.

Seeing the person coming, more than a dozen wolves stood up slowly, with bloodthirsty sharpness in their green eyes.

"Woooooo!"

The big man struggled desperately.

Ning Han opened a hole from above and threw the big man in.

As soon as the big man entered, he wanted to jump up, but a wolf leaped towards him, opened its mouth, and bit him on the throat.

Ninghan stepped out of the tent, and there were the sounds of biting and chewing, accompanied by the smell of blood.

A few riders appear from the left.

"Discover hundreds of rides!"

Ning Han's face changed slightly, "Assemble, I'm going to see the master."

Accompanied by Chunlin, Yujing had already walked out of the big tent. Before Ninghan could approach, he said calmly, "Look where it is from. If something is wrong, strike first."

"Yes."

Ning Han's eyes were bloodshot, and he was quite excited.

"Late autumn is a good time to kill people." Yu Jing touched his nose and said lightly.

Ning Han rushed out with four hundred riders.

Yujing had already seen those hundreds of riders.

A small piece of blackness came towards this side without haste.

"There is no flag." Chunlin smiled and said, "Most likely they are passing by. Maybe they are old friends who specially came to visit the master."

Yujing said coldly: "I don't like this unannounced visit, I hope he brings good news, otherwise I don't mind driving him out of my sight."

"No." Chunlin was startled, "Ninghan drew his sword."

Ning Han drew out his long knife, "Strangers, report your names and purpose, otherwise your heads will become my goods!"

"Goods?" Li Han felt like he had seen a ghost.

Wu Da said: "Some people on the grassland like to use the skulls of their enemies as urinals, wine vessels, or funeral objects. Generally speaking, the higher the status, the more valuable the head."

Li Han touched his head, feeling a little palpitated.

Yang Xuan brought three hundred Lin'an cavalry, and Wu Da followed with one hundred guards, and the four hundred cavalry were evenly matched with the opposing team.

The eyes of Wu Shunze next to him shone with a light called "eager to do meritorious service", "Sima, let's attack!"

After being beaten up and eating a bowl of unsalted Hoto from Yang Xuan, this guy became more and more kind to Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan said dissatisfiedly: "Calm down! We are here to make friends, how can we do business while shouting and killing?"

"Yes."

Yang Xuan raised his eyebrows, "Jianming."

Li Hance stepped forward immediately, and said in a low voice, "If the situation is wrong, hurry up and save me."

King Wei said indifferently: "This king will light three sticks of incense for you."

Li Han pointed his middle finger and walked away freely.

On the opposite side, Ning Han also rode alone.

"Why are you waiting here?"

Li Han showed a reserved smile that Yang Xuan and King Wei hated, "We are from the south, bringing friendship and wealth. I hope to meet the most outstanding businessman on the grassland."

"What do you mean by meeting?"

Li Han: "..."

"It means meeting."

Ning Han looked at the cavalry behind him, his eyes especially swept over Yang Xuan and the others.

"Doing business?"

"Yes."

"You come alone."

Ning Han steered his horse back.

Li Han laughed loudly, "Hahahaha!"

"This stick, when he meets a fool, his methods are a bit too much." Yang Xuan said: "My lord, go and have a look."

King Wei stepped forward immediately.

Ning Han turned around, "Do you want to fight?"

King Wei said coldly: "There is no reason to go alone..."

"Five people." Ning Han seemed straightforward, but every time he caught Li Han and King Wei by surprise.

"It's interesting." Yang Xuan smiled, "Follow me."

Four hundred cavalry slowly approached.

Ning Han returned to the team and shouted: "Let the master go first."

Four hundred riders began to draw their bows and nock arrows, preparing to cover a wave with arrow rain first.

But the price after drawing the bow and setting the arrow is that it is too late to draw the sword, and the remaining opponents will rush into the formation.

"Ninghan!"

Yujing is here.

He cupped his hands at Yang Xuan, "But a guest from Datang?"

Wu Shunze scolded: "If you don't eat a toast, you will be fined."

Yang Xuan nodded, "I need a business partner who knows how to respect friends."

Yujing looked at him, "I like straightforward partners, not secretive strangers who refuse to reveal their identities."

"Are you sure you want to know my identity in front of these people?"

Who is this person?Yujing said indifferently: "Of course I said it in private."

Old fox!
Yang Xuan dismounted, carrying a bundle.

Yujing dismounted.

The two went to a remote place.

Coming closer, Yujing squinted at Yang Xuan, "Young man, I've never heard of a big businessman like you nearby."

"I'm from Chenzhou."

"Oh! That's a good place." Yujing looked the same, "Young man, report your name."

"Yang Xuan."

"It's a good name..." Yu Jing took a few steps back meaningly.

Ning rarely shouted, "Protect the master!"

Two horses came galloping.

A giant knife whirls past.

The four corpses fell off the horse's back, and the horse neighed and jumped on the spot, apparently terrified.

King Wei put away his saber, and said calmly: "One more person, all of them will be slaughtered!"

"Stop!" At the critical moment, Yu Jing stopped his subordinates, then looked at Yang Xuan, "I need to verify your identity."

A seal was thrown over.

As a wealthy businessman, Yujing had a lot of research on the culture of the Tang Dynasty. He carefully looked at the seal, and then at the hundreds of cavalry in the tense formation, bowed slightly, "Dear Sima Yang, please follow me."

"You are very well informed." The news of Yang Xuan's appointment as Sima in Lin'an is estimated to be unknown to Wynn.

"News is a sharp weapon for businessmen. If we lose timely news, we will become lambs of others."

Some news in these words is the taste of business opportunities.

When the two entered the camp, Yujing ordered: "Let Ninghan wait outside with someone, so don't disturb my distinguished guest. Chunlin, you follow."

The three entered the big tent.

Ning Han grinned grimly and said to Li Han: "Master will make that man prostrate and surrender, and you, if you dare to make a rash move, that man will become a delicacy for wolves."

……

"Before we talk about business, I don't want to drink if I want to come to Yang Sima." Yujing didn't have the self-consciousness of being a master.

"That's right." Yang Xuan cut straight to the point, "The three major ministries have been harvesting chestnuts from the fire of the Northern Liao Dynasty for many years, and life is not easy."

Yujing smiled, "My life is more luxurious than Khan's."

"This can be seen from the furnishings in the big tent." Yang Xuan secretly praised the layout in the big tent, "I just want to ask a question, is your caravan willing to trade with Chen Zhou?"

Yu Jing said without hesitation: "No one would dislike having a lot of money, but Khan issued a strict order not to trade with Chenzhou."

"For businessmen, I think you know better than me what a ban means." Yang Xuan said flatly, "The more the ban, the more it means high profits."

"But the human head is also a victim of the ban."

"As long as the profits are high enough, businessmen can offer their heads with both hands."

"Yang Sima seems to know a lot about businessmen."

"I just understand the greed of the human heart."

"But this business route will be full of risks."

"Chenzhou will only provide the goods there, as for how to take them away, that's your business."

"So, I don't think this business is suitable."

There was a smile on the corner of Chunlin's mouth, thinking that if you came here on your own initiative, you were passive.How can the master ask for any price, can you still refuse?
"you sure?"

"Of course, the Jibo Ministry knows that Yujing will do what he says."

There was a smile in Yujing's eyes, like a cat molesting a mouse.

When Yang Xuan came today, he would definitely leave clues.The nobles cherish their lives, so Yang Xuan must not dare to come to the Jibo Department to find businessmen for the second time.

Therefore, Yang Xuan must either agree to his conditions now, or...

"I am the biggest businessman around here." Yu Jing said reservedly, "If I leave here, I think Yang Sima will lose the business opportunities of Jibo Department."

Yang Xuan put the burden in his hand on the table.

He slowly opened the bag.

Yujing smiled reservedly.

Chunlin chuckled and said, "What could it be? Cloth? Daliao's cloth is not much worse than Datang's. Ugh!"

His throat seemed to be strangled by someone, and his eyes were rounder than bull's eyes.

Yujing raised his hands like eagle claws, trying to grab the burden.

He almost groaned and said, "Is this a cloud in the sky? God! I have never seen such a beautiful cloth."

Yang Xuan pulled the cloth away, and suddenly the tent seemed to light up for a moment.

"Beautiful and beautiful!" Chunlin walked over slowly involuntarily.

Yang Xuan rolled up the cloth and pulled up the burden.

He got up.

Yujing raised his head, the greed in his eyes seemed to be able to swallow everything in front of him, "Yang Sima, does Chenzhou have such cloth?"

Yang Xuan nodded.

"I want it all."

Greed can make people lost... Yang Xuan looked down at Yujing from above, "Who can get as much depends on the contribution."

"I know many generals, and I can open up business routes!" Yu Jing slowly got up, keeping his eyes on the burden, like a person who lost his mind and was being guided by the burden at the moment.

"Your family is not enough!" Yang Xuan carried the burden on his back, and instantly returned to Yu Jing rationally.

"How much do you want?"

This idiot who wants to monopolize the trade of Jibobu and Chenzhou!

No, it's greed!
"If you monopolize the trade exclusively, your strength will grow rapidly, and even threaten Wynn's status."

The color of madness came again, and Yujing growled: "Then I will be a Khan."

It's a pity, if there is no Tanzhou behind, Yang Xuan only needs to provoke, and he can cause chaos within the Jibo Department.

"Go and tell those people, of course, as No.1, Chen Zhou will give you a discount."

Yujing clenched his fists tightly and said for a long time, "Okay."

Then it was a grand bonfire dinner.

Li Han was slightly drunk, so he asked Yang Xuan to go with him for convenience.

"How did you make Yujing bow his head?"

"Take advantage of it."

"What profit?"

"Shu Brocade."

"Tsk tsk! This is a good thing, and you are going to make a lot of money."

"Jianming, do you believe it? I can use business to destroy the country."

"Use what?!"

"Business, also called...capital."

……

Brother Cheng, happy birthday.
