The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1038

Xuan Shijing asked Gao Jun to stay in the military camp for the time being, and he took the team back to Minzhou for the time being. The army definitely couldn't put so many things in the army, and the things he got from Tuyuhun had to be temporarily stored in the government office. Only by looking for opportunities to cash in can they be distributed to the generals of the Minzhou army one by one, and this task is most suitable for the Minzhou caravan.

Although the exchange of things this time is not a lot, it is also a good start. Naturally, the government does not have much oil and water. The real oil and water are the nobles of Tuyuhun. Back then, the nobles of Tuyuhun let the army plunder in the desert of the Western Regions. I also bought a lot of good things, and I hid them in my own home. This time, if I didn't take out something from their treasury, I would be sorry for the soldiers who worked so hard to fight the war.

The Western Regions is a good place. Although the Silk Road is full of yellow sand, this place is a famous golden zone. The sixteen countries in the Western Regions, it is said to be sixteen countries, are actually the most powerful robbers in the desert. The leader made his fortune by robbing the caravans on the commercial road, recruited soldiers and bought horses, and built a city by himself to live the addiction of being an emperor.

One side of this road is connected to the powerful Tang Dynasty, and the other side is Europe, which is very mysterious to the Tang people today. The trade is very frequent. After the founding of the sixteen countries in the Western Regions, even if they only collected business taxes, they all became rich. It's oily.

Not to mention the fact that the nobles of Tuyuhun went to the deserts of the Western Regions to fight the autumn wind, the current king of Tuyuhun, Nuohebo in the east, is the king of Heyuan County who was named by the Eight Classics of the Tang Dynasty. In the 14th year of Zhenguan, he married Princess Honghua , became the son-in-law of His Majesty Li Er, and Xuan Shijing's handwriting was sent to Nuo Hebo's desk. Just thinking about it, you can know how interesting Nuo Hebo's expression is.

As early as the 15th year of Zhenguan, Xi Junmai made a name for himself in Tuyuhun, and quelled the Tuyuhun Rebellion with 120 people. At that time, Tuyuhun sent troops to invade the border of the Tang Dynasty. It is said that there were more than 1 people.

One hundred and two against ten thousand, Xuan Shijing couldn't figure out how Xi Junmai fought this battle
Of course, this may have something to do with the civil strife in Tuyuhun. Tuyuhun was divided into two long ago. Fuyunzi Dayanmangjiebo in the west led him and lived in Shanshan. Later, he surrendered Tubo. "Or "A Jurisdiction".The eastern part was led by Fu Yun's eldest son, Murong Shun, who lived in Fucheng, and was named the king of Xiping County in Tang Dynasty.Not long after, Murong Shun died, and then his son Nuo Hebo succeeded him, and he accepted the canonization of the Tang Dynasty, and he was regarded as defecting to the Tang Dynasty.

Xuan Shijing's letter was also meant to ask, this time seven thousand Tuyuhun soldiers invaded the Tang Dynasty, what does this mean?
If the military incident this time was not started by Nuo Hebo, but by Dayan Mangjiebo, then it would be a different matter. You don’t need Xuan Shijing to lead people to fight, and you will lose the lives of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty for nothing, and let Nuo He Bo and Dayanmang made waves to argue, but as for the war of words and the beginning of a real war, as long as they don't invade Datang, it's easy to say.

Moreover, should Xuan Shijing make money or make money, if two people fight or something, it's the best
This is the highest state of making war money, learn from the American emperors.

Xuan Shijing looked at the team transporting the goods behind him, and suddenly felt funny in his heart, that's how it came to steal chickens and lose money.

Whether it's the east or the west, these people like to add some drama to themselves every year. Is the border of the Tang Dynasty a little Tuyuhun who can provoke it at will?
Before Li Zhi discussed with them, did he want to take advantage or what to do, why didn't he have any brains?In the end, no matter what you do or not, it's you A Chai who get beaten up.

After walking for two days and one night, they camped on the side of the road and rested for one night before transporting all these materials to the government office of Minzhou.

And the county magistrate who was in the government office was so happy when he saw this batch of goods. Minzhou and Tuyuhun have been at war for so many years. How could they have been so stubborn and let the people of Tuyuhun buy back their own things? , It's really worth it.

A civil servant couldn't help the excitement in his heart and silently swears, how refreshing it is.

A separate warehouse was set up in the government office of Minzhou to store these things, which will be sent to the army for distribution in the future, so naturally they cannot be mixed with the original things in the government office.

"Bingyue, go out for a walk and call the steward of our family's caravan in Minzhou. These things have to be handled by them." Xuan Shijing ordered.

"Yes, Lord Hou." Qin Bingyue responded, then turned and left.

"At the beginning, Benhou called many businessmen from Minzhou to this government office, and wanted to cooperate with them to make a fortune together. Looking at it now, I still have a long-term vision." Xuan Shijing laughed.

The county magistrate also laughed: "It's just some short-sighted people. Getting something from them is like cutting their flesh with a knife. It's not surprising that they would react that way."

The county magistrate has dealt with these people for more than ten years, so he naturally knows what kind of piss they are. Most businessmen value profit and are not benevolent for the rich. Therefore, from the court to the people, they look down on businessmen, and their status is also low.

"Now, they only have to be jealous." Xuan Shijing laughed.

Let the merchants deal with the goods from Tuyuhun, and there must be a commission, but Xuan Shijing's own caravan has the final say on how much it takes, but at least one thing, the caravan will not If you are in a loss-making business, if you sell the same thing personally, the price will always be lowered, but the caravan is different. They have channels and connections, and the price is [-]% to [-]% higher than the market price. All of them are possible, and the extra is naturally the benefit fee of the caravan.

The goods sent by the Tuyuhun government cannot be all copper coins, there must be other treasures and the like, and the caravan makes money from this.

When Xuan Shijing opened the box to check, he still underestimated Tuyuhun's generosity, a box turned out to be some copper pieces.

Good thing, although it cannot be cast into copper coins, it is much more valuable than copper coins when cast into bronze wares, and after being cast into bronze wares, they will be sold to Tuyuhun or the countries of the Western Regions, which is another huge sum of money. price difference.

"It turned out to be copper." The county magistrate was also a little moved when he saw the things in the box. When he talked about the price with the envoy, he only talked about gold, silver, jewelry, antiques and jade. copper.

There should be no large copper mines in Tuyuhun. Where did they get so much copper?Xuan Shijing was puzzled.Judging by the texture of these coppers, it doesn't look like it came out of a small mine.
