Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 373 is too good
The bleak autumn wind hangs across the boundless wilderness. Under the setting sun, a convoy of dozens of people is slowly moving forward. The knights are strong, and the horses are fat and strong. Delicate, you can tell that you are from a rich family at a glance.

Not far away, a cavalry team of hundreds of people approached. The leader shouted a few words, and the team slowly stopped.

"Lang Jun, the father-in-law of Jiangxia County welcomes you."

The curtain of the carriage was pulled up by a fair hand, revealing the face of a middle-aged man. After getting out of the carriage, he swept the sides of the road casually. After a while, he suddenly looked carefully and smiled at Li Gaoqian who was striding forward. Said: "I have heard the name of Guantao county magistrate for a long time. Unexpectedly, in addition to shocking poetic talents, he also has a lot of skills in governing politics."

"Brother Huaiyi, why did you say that?" Li Gaoqian laughed and said, this is Pei Huaiyi from Wenxi Pei's West Family House, who was invited by him to go north to Daizhou.

"The field is empty, it's obvious." Pei Huaiyi praised: "Although it's a trivial matter, I can see that this person is very diligent in managing the government."

Although Li Gaoqian was not from a powerful family, he was also a son of a rich family in a county. In this regard, he was not as good as Pei Huaiyi, who took care of the family's general affairs. After the autumn harvest, the fields needed to be harvested, such as straw, which could also be used as firewood.

Pei Huaiyi remembered that he came to Daizhou once a few years ago, and it was also this season, there were ruins everywhere, and the fields were in disarray, which was very different from what it is now.

In fact, on the one hand, it was indeed Li Shan who explained that he was originally a farmer’s son; All got away.

After the two chatted for a while, they got on their horses and headed north along the road, and turned east after a quarter of an hour. Pei Huaiyi quickly noticed something strange.

During the reign of Emperor Wen of the former Sui Dynasty, the official roads were repaired. Later, during the reign of Emperor Yang of the Daye Dynasty, Emperor Yang moved his capital to Luoyang and went south to Jiangdu. The official roads have not been repaired on a large scale for decades.

But the official road that turns to the east is flat and wide, and it is divided into two, one to the east and one to the west, separated by a half-person-high mound in the middle, and there are special personnel in charge of every section of the distance.

After walking for five or six miles, Pei Huaiyi watched from a distance from the horse, and at the end of his sight was a crimson. The red was brighter, just like the sun above, which was impressive.

When I got closer, I found that this is a Zhuangzi, which is full of houses built with red bricks, and the outside of the Zhuangzi is built with a long wall of red bricks.

But the most surprising thing is that inside and outside the gate, merchants wearing all kinds of clothes are almost crowded with no place to stay. Pei Huaiyi couldn't help but tilt his head and said: "I heard someone mention it on the way, it is almost comparable to Chang'an things." In the two cities, this Li Huairen is not afraid of being sued by others!"

"It's just a small matter, Huairen is favored by the sage, and Princess Pingyang is there to help." Li Gaoqian chuckled, "Five days ago, the first batch of caravans returned. At that time, the city had already been built, and merchants gathered here."

Li Gaoqian is so attentive... Of course Pei Huaiyi guessed that this old friend probably has a part in it, otherwise he would not have written to invite him to come.

However, in such a grand occasion, Pei Huaiyi is also ready to move.

But even though he was about to move, Pei Huaiyi was not in a hurry, but asked about various things in detail.

Li Gaoqian didn't quite understand this aspect, so he simply pulled Ma Zhou over... During this time, Ma Zhou was being used by Li Shan like a donkey, hitting the back of his head with his heel every day.

"Mr. County, this is..."

"Oh, it turns out that Wen Xi Pei's family." Ma Zhou saluted, and his heart skipped a beat... Huairen really has a trick, which can be regarded as dragging Pei's family into trouble!

Pei Huaiyi... Hearing this name, one knew that Pei Huaijie and Pei Huaijie who was stuffed into the Tiance Mansion by Pei Shiju were brothers, at least direct cousins.

Ma Zhou accompanied the two into the gate, and introduced: "The south is full of warehouses, storing all kinds of goods. After all, goods such as tea and salt cannot be exposed to moisture, let alone rain."

"The north side is full of separate houses for everyone to negotiate the price of goods, register and make books, convert and pump..."

Li Gaoqian glanced to the north, his face beamed with joy, and his head shook... You must know that although it is only [-] out of [-], but the amount is huge, he can get [-]% of the profit.

Going further, Pei Huaiyi heard the neighing of horses, pointed to the east and asked, "Is the stable over there?"

"Yes." Ma Zhou moved closer, "Back from Yunzhou, good horses are the best..."

Pei Huaiyi couldn't help nodding his head repeatedly. Now that Li Tang lacks good horses, the price of a horse is quite expensive, but horses are the most profitable and relatively convenient for carrying goods back from outside the Great Wall.

Li Gaoqian suddenly said seriously: "Nowadays there is a shortage of horses in the court, and Huairen has set up a city to store horses for the court. This is a state affair."

Pei Huaiyi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, there was no outsider here, who would he listen to such high-sounding words?
After chatting for a few more words, Pei Huaiyi asked the most important question, "Is the restaurant here too?"

Ma Zhou led the two of them to the northeast corner, where the walls were high and the alley was deep, and they walked around a few times before they saw a place from a distance, where there were a few young men patrolling with swords outside.

"I've heard the name of Yuhuchun for a long time." Pei Huaiyi's eyes flickered, "I just don't know how the output will be..."

Ma Zhou made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile, "Then you have to rely on your feet."

Pei Huaiyi smiled reservedly, not being modest... It is impossible to set up a private winery and buy food through open channels, but in Hedong Road, only a big family like Wenxi Pei has such ability and channels.

Guided by Ma Zhou, the three of them arrived at a mansion on the east side. As soon as they entered the door, Pei Huaiyi heard a familiar voice shouting.

"Everyone in the world says that Dongshan Li Shan's benevolence and righteousness come first. I saw him today, but I was very disappointed!"

Pei Huaiyi paused, then smiled and said, "Brother Zhishang is here too!"

The middle-aged man sitting on the stool cursed bad luck, got up and bowed, "I didn't expect that Huairen and Pei Shi of Hedong also have friendship!"

Ma Zhou's eyes collided with Li Shan's, and he wanted to laugh a little... Well, in fact, what he said was not bad.

This friendship is so deep that I can't say it!
Pei Huaiyi glanced at everyone, and immediately determined the target. He took two steps forward and said with a smile: "Shandong has made great achievements in poetry, superb medical skills, and now he has administrative skills. Third uncle is really good at recommending people."

Is this a good word?
It should be saying that I love Aduwu, right?
The corner of Li Shan's mouth twitched, and he saluted, "Don't dare to do that."

In addition to Li Shan, there are three other people present today, namely the children of the Wang family in Taiyuan, the Liu family in Xie County, and the Xue family in Hedong... All of these three families have children who are old friends with Li Shan.

Needless to say Wang Renbiao, during the Shandong war last year, Li Shan rescued Liu Jun and Xue Zhong, and the uncles and nephews Liu Shi and Liu Heng also had a good relationship with Li Shan, and they met many times in Pingkangfang.

But none of these families could compare with the double-faced Wenxi Pei family during the Wude period. Pei Huaiyi grasped the situation as soon as he entered the house. , sometimes mentioning the price of the goods.

Li Shanxiao watched this scene, and occasionally exchanged... this guy's eyes with Ma Zhou.
