Dajin royal family
Chapter 181 Blood Ruby
Chapter 181 Blood Ruby
Qinglefang.
Hu Gebao was running a grocery store in the Western Regions as usual, holding a white cloth in his hand and carefully wiping the imitation enamel porcelain vases. This thing can deceive those Jin people who don't know the way to thousands of taels of silver.Thinking of this, he habitually squinted his eyes, there is no businessman who does not love money.
It's a pity that he shouldn't have lured wolves into the house last year.Now the money doesn't belong to him anymore, he is just a dog making money for others.Although he was very unwilling, there was nothing he could do, because that person could crush him to death at any time.
At this time, a chubby man in white clothes with green eyes walked into the shop with a smile and saw Hu Gebao wiping the porcelain vase. Be careful and get caught that day, the adult behind you will not be able to save you. There are many powerful people in Chang'an City."
Alidos is Hu Gebao's real name. Only his compatriots who are merchants in the Western Regions know his name, and the man in white clothes, Conjoli, is just one of them.
Hu Gebao knew who it was when he heard the voice, without moving his eyelids, he said, "The last batch of goods is coming back? Didn't those officials ask you for tea money?"
It is nothing new for Jin officials to bully and blackmail Hu merchants. It has been like this since they entered the Central Plains more than ten years ago. Office officials, and finally discriminated against.
The reason is simple, they are uncivilized barbarians, they look different from the Han people, the most important thing is that they are businessmen.Yes, a simple identity makes them an inferior person.Even a visit to a Han Chinese brothel is not welcome.
Revolt?
Dissatisfied?
I'm sorry, as strong as the Turks were slaughtered by the Jin Dynasty, the mother country behind them can only obediently surrender at the foot of the Jin Dynasty.The emperor of the Jin Dynasty was unhappy that day, maybe he would find an excuse to attack their small country in the Western Regions.
Conjoli walked in, and picked up a small wooden sculpture on the wooden stand, "It's just a few goods. If you can use this to climb up to a big man, wouldn't these things be saved in the future?"
With some kind of special expectation in his eyes, he looked at Hu Gebao, hoping that he could give him the answer he wanted.
Hu Gebao was well aware of what Kang Qiaoli was up to, but he still pretended not to know, "Big man? The emperor of Jin Dynasty is the biggest person. If you can get the praise of the emperor of Jin Dynasty, all problems will be solved easily. Maybe you will come back later. After leaving Tocharia, you can still become the king's diplomatic envoy."
Hearing this, Kang Qiaoli was not angry either, he came to ask several times, but Hu Gebao didn't give the answer he wanted, but he was not in a hurry.Because he is very sure that Hu Gebao must have climbed up to a certain important person in Chang'an City. He doesn't know when he started. Inspection by Chang'an guards.
Said that there is no one behind him, so go ahead and lie to the ghosts!
Since Hu Gebao can climb up to that one, why can't he? He doesn't need to be inferior to Hu Gebao, let alone poorer than Hu Gebao. As long as he is given a chance, he believes that the big man will trust him more, and then he will be able to earn more money. many things.
Kang Qiaoli walked up to Hu Gebao and blocked his way, Hu Gebao said angrily, "Don't ask, I don't know anything."
"You're obviously hiding it from me." Conjoli said, "Aridos, we are all Tocharians anyway. In the words of the Jin family, we are the township party. We are in a foreign country. You don't care about this matter." Don't you want to help me? I just asked you to introduce it for me. Whether it can be done depends on me. What are you afraid of? Besides, can I treat you badly?"
As he spoke, Conjoli took out a small box from his sleeve and handed it to Hu Gebao.
Hu Gebao also knew that he couldn't hide from Kang Qiaoli, so he said, "Don't ask, I don't know anything."
Dare he say it?
The answer is no, he can't afford to offend that son of King Zhao at all, even if he doesn't want that son's protection now, it's impossible, he has too many handles in the hands of that son, only one. No, maybe that son didn't need a reason to kill him at all.
After all, a small Chang'an guard could blackmail him, not to mention the prominent Prince Zhao's son.He didn't dare to casually introduce someone to that prince without his consent. If he was unhappy, he would be the one to suffer.
"You should see what this is before answering me."
Conjoli slowly opened the box, Hu Gebao glanced at it disdainfully, there was something he hadn't seen before, everyone is a businessman from the Western Regions, don't I have what you have.
However, his vision seemed to be fixed on the items in the box, his pupils gradually expanded, and a voice came out from his throat, "Blood ruby?"
Conjoli smiled triumphantly, and unhurriedly took out a gem the size of a baby's fist from the box. The stone was blood red and crystal clear, like a celestial eagle.
"This is impossible, the blood ruby has been inlaid on the royal staff, you are a fake!" Hu Gebao suppressed the shock in his heart, and said in disbelief.
Concholi chuckled, he knew how powerful this thing was for Hu Gebao, "If you don't believe me, let's try it and we'll know."
"How to try?" Hu Gebao put down his work and asked.
"Are you sure you want to be here?" Conjoli asked.
Hu Gebao glanced at the blood-red gemstone, and then led Kang Qiaoli to the secret room on the second floor.The two sat on the ground with a basin of water between them.
Conjoli gently placed the blood ruby in the copper basin, and said slowly: "It is rumored that the blood ruby will become hot after soaking in cold water, and it will last for a long time, and it will not cool down again until it leaves the human body. And , the water soaked in the blood ruby will turn blood red."
"I know." Hu Gebao swallowed, staring fixedly at the water in the copper basin.
After a while, the water in the copper basin slowly turned blood red. Hu Gebao reached out and touched it lightly, and found that the cold water became warm.He looked up at Conjoli, who nodded.Hu Gebao carefully picked up the blood ruby, and a warm feeling immediately spread from his palm.
"This is actually a real blood ruby!" Hu Gebao's voice trembled.
Conjoli was very satisfied with Hu Gebao's reaction, he proudly said: "How about it, are you willing to talk now?"
Hu Gebao's face turned cold, "Where did you get the blood ruby, I remember that this thing has always been in the hands of the royal family."
"I can't tell you that, as long as you are willing to introduce that lord to me, I can give you this thing." Kang Qiaoli's words were not astonishing, and Hu Gebao was stunned on the spot.
In Langya County's mansion, in the study, Jiang Chengxiao bowed his head in thought.
Although the visit of Zheng's mansion didn't let him figure out what Zheng Shanyuan's plan was, but one thing did make him understand, it seemed that Zheng Shanyuan wanted to get too close to other Shandong aristocratic families.Hearing that he had seconded people from the Pei family, he immediately sent Ruyi over to help him.
He thought of a word: win over.
When a person wins over another person, he must have value that is valued by the other person.Jiang Chengxiao picked up a pen and wrote "value" on the paper.
What value can he have that is valued by the Zheng family?
Gold, silver and wealth are completely impossible. The Zheng family does not say that they are the richest in the world, but as a family that has been passed down for a long time, there should be no shortage of wealth in the family.
Thinking about it carefully, the only thing about him that attracts the Zheng family is his status as the son of Prince Zhao.Perhaps the Zheng family wanted to continue to maintain this connection with Zhao Wangfu, and draw themselves firmly to the Zheng family.
For now, this explanation makes the most sense.
At this moment, Nan Jiyun's voice came from outside the study: "Master, I have something important to do."
"Come in."
Jiang Chengxiao unhurriedly threw the papers into the brazier one by one, and watched them burn up.
Nan Jiyun walked in, bowed and said: "Master, Hu Gebao has something very important to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chengxiao asked indifferently.Hu Gebao's side has basically been charged with death, as long as he is willing, Hu Gebao will quietly evaporate at any time.He was kept because he was still obedient for the time being, and he could earn money for him, and open up trade routes in the Western Regions by the way.
"He said that the matter is too important, and he must meet you in person before he can speak." Nan Jiyun said.
