Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 888
Yuan Gai Su Wen thought very clearly that the relationship between the Wa royal family and the Baekje people is too close, and they will change their marriage every few years. In the past two years, because of the troubles in Silla, the Tang people borrowed Chikuzi Island. , the minds of Baekje people seem to be more active.

However, Wa Kingdom is similar to Goguryeo.

Soga Ezo should be doing the same thing as he wants to do, so he might consider forming a union with Soga.

First cut off the marriage exchange between Baekje and the Wa royal family.

Yuangai Suwen sent someone to ask Liumu, just to hear Liumu's opinion. If Liumu agrees, Yuangai Suwen intends to use Liumu's hand to help him get the support of the Soga family, and cut off Baekje and the Wa royal family. The relationship between.

However, what Yuan Gai Su Wen didn't know was that Wo had disappeared and was now called Fusang.

Not to mention the royal family in Wajima, all the nobles are dead.

Yuan Gai Suwen's messenger left Pingcheng and went to Xinjin Port, and Yuan Gai Suwen took a few cronies and entourages to Pingcheng Tangfang.

Tangfang, in Pingcheng, is also called Tangrengang.

It has a fatal attraction for the nobles of Goguryeo, and the goods here have countless novelties.

There are only things you can't afford, and nothing you can't imagine.

Of course, this does not include some goods that are forbidden to be sold by the Tang people. The prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is like a kingdom of heaven to ordinary nobles in Goguryeo.

Not only Goguryeo nobles, but also Baekje nobles often came to Goguryeo Pyeongseong from Baekje.

Even if the entry fee for a carriage is as high as [-] Wentang, and the cost of berthing a ship reaches a huge fee of [-] Wen each, the nobles of Baekje continue to come to Pingcheng Tangfang.

Yuan Gai Suwen brought people to Tangfang, the small shop at the entrance of the market changed its owner.

Yuan Gai Suwen stood in front of the station door and asked, "Where is the original sachet shop owner?"

"My dear guest, shopkeeper Wang's business is doing well. I bought a courtyard with three entrances and two floors on the newly built Second Street over there, and started to do some perfume business."

Yuan Gai Suwen nodded, he came to Tang Fang for a purpose, but he would also buy some gifts for the women in his backyard along the way.

Sachets are one of the items that must be purchased.

After the shopkeeper answered, he began to arrange his own shelves, and there were some novelty objects that Yuan Gai Suwen had never seen before.

Picking up a fragrant wooden object like a ruler, Yuan Gai Suwen looked at it curiously.

A store clerk came up from behind holding one in a brocade box: "Dear guest, that is just an ordinary fan. This one is made of rosewood wood, and the fan surface is also painted by a first-class painter. The painting depicts one of the eight scenes in Guanzhong. One's Tyrant Willow Wind and Snow."

The guy slowly opened the folding fan, revealing the painted side of the fan.

There are three theories about the origin of folding fans, namely Han, Jin, and Southern Qi.

Regardless of any of these three periods, it was before the Tang Dynasty.

Liu Mu had never seen a folding fan in Tang Chang'an, so it can only be said that the origin does not necessarily mean that it is all over the Central Plains.

It is also said that the folding fan originated from Koryo or Wa Yamato, and was introduced to the Central Plains in the late Tang Dynasty or Song Dynasty. It was originally called Wu fan.

In this time and space, the folding fan was invented by Liumu.

Not only fans, but more importantly, the art of fans, whether it is text or painting, has created a trend.Celebrities will never buy fans with words and paintings.

Yuan Gai Suwen liked this folding fan very much, and asked the store to send over a few.

After picking and choosing, Yuan Gai Suwen said: "Wrap them all up, I want them all."

While wrapping the brocade box neatly, the partner presented several white fans with different skeletons and sizes as if they were treasures.

"Why is there no calligraphy and painting here?"

"This white fan is no less expensive than the one with calligraphy and painting, and the materials used are more refined. The fan surface is either high-quality paper or high-quality pure white silk. I got drunk four years ago during a banquet with a guest. University scholar Yu jumped on the fan with his drunken orchid pavilion preface."

Of course, Yuan Gai Suwen knew the identity of the Yu University scholar.

In terms of calligraphy, he is definitely a master of calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty.Only Da Ou and Ouyang Xun can be as famous as him.

Yuan Gai Suwen motioned to install twenty white fans for himself, and he also planned to ask celebrities, or write and paint a few copies by himself.

"Order some more for me. You need high-quality wood and high-quality white silk. The fan pendant should be made of silver and have my Yuan family crest." Yuan Gai Suwen signaled the guards around him to hand over his badge. Leave.

The store issued a formal order form.

Yuan Gai Suwen asked his entourage to take out a stack of money rolls (notes). Yuan Gai Su Wen's entourage once told him that such money rolls could be directly exchanged for goods. The top-grade Tang Hengdao shipped here.

The shopkeeper took the money roll but said: "Dear customer, according to the law, money rolls cannot be traded directly, and the money rolls are only used to facilitate settlements between banks. Just wait a moment!"

The two shop assistants trotted towards the bank in Tang Fang.

A follower whispered beside Yuan Gai Suwen: "Whoever goes to the bank can exchange the money roll, it doesn't matter who holds it. It has to be troublesome to exchange."

"No, what you said is not entirely correct. The Tang people have considerations for the Tang people."

Yuan Gai Suwen explained to his entourage: "First of all, this is printed on paper. I heard that there is a method of identification, so it is difficult to fake it. However, this store went to the bank to exchange it, probably because the Tang law strictly prohibited the transaction of money rolls, and they also went to verify the authenticity. false idea."

At this time, two fellows were carrying a box out of breath.

There are many silver coins on the top of the box.

After clearing the coins in front of Yuan Gai Su Wen, before Yuan Gai Su Wen left the store, the two clerks carried the box and ran back to the bank, put the money in the bank, and exchanged it for a stack of money roll.

Yuan Gai Suwen's entourage smiled: "Isn't this just looking for trouble?"

"That's right." Yuan Gai Suwen couldn't understand what happened just now. From Yuan Gai Suwen's point of view, even if Tang Law does not allow direct transactions with money rolls, then he can let his entourage follow the shop assistants to the needle. Zhuang, after the verification, it will be settled at the bank, and there is no need to carry a box of coins weighing nearly [-] catties so far back and forth.

"Let's go, this is the rule of the Tang people and has nothing to do with us." Yuan Gai Suwen was a little confused, but he was unwilling to waste more brain power.

After Yuan Gai Suwen walked away, the two store partners ran back to the store covered in sweat.

The two guys sweated a lot, and their backs were soaked. This is the land entrance of Tangfang. There are two banks, one near here and the other near the pier.The nearest one was more than 300 steps away. It was very hard to run back and forth carrying a one hundred catty cash box.

No one complained, the shopkeeper just calmly handed over two glasses of water.

It is strictly forbidden to use banknotes directly as money when trading with Goguryeo people. This is an iron law issued jointly by several yamen gates in Chang'an against Tangfang.

　To all my friends, Happy New Year's Day.
