Chinese dining table

Hei Chi Changzhi glanced at Sha Zha Xiangru and said, "Some Baekje businessmen sent word that they live well in Dahang City, although they need to pay a heavy tax.

However, after paying the taxes, they can live in Dahang City, no one robs their property, and no one wants to hit their wives and daughters. "

Pei Xingjian continued to nibble on the naan bread in his hand and said with a smile: "We are in Changyuan City, which itself is by the sea. Now is the time when the northeast wind is strong. If the boat goes smoothly, we can reach Dahang City in a day and night. Do you want to go to Dahang City?" to see?
I think, after you have seen Dahang City and Yunchu, you will think that my old Pei is such a neat guy. "

"You will let us go?" Hei Chi Chang Zhi was a little surprised.

Pei Xingjian shook his head and said: "The two of you are too loyal, and you still can't do something like running away alone regardless of your wife and children.

You go to Dahang City, I will wait for you in Goguryeo. "

"Are you sure you want to let us go?" Sha Zha Xiangru, who never talked much, confirmed again.

"I will equip you with ships, entourage, and goods. You can pretend to be a businessman and go to Dahang City to see what it really looks like."

After speaking, Pei Xingjian drank the sweet tea in the cup and got up to leave.

Black-toothed Changzhi and Sha Zha Xiangru are two very ordinary Baekje people, two ordinary Baekje officials who were passed down by the Tang Dynasty and who were well trained in poetry, calligraphy and etiquette.

Since the king of Baekje surrendered, the two governors and generals who served as local governors also surrendered in order to rule the safety of the people.

It is the two who feel the importance of an account to the people.More than an important person who has an account to the King of Baekje.

Before sending the two on board, Pei Xingjian wrote a letter to Yunchu to prove their identities so that they would not be killed by Yunchu.

Seeing the two sail away, Wang Fangyi said worriedly, "So let them go?"

Pei Xingjian said: "The two of them now hate Onishi Fushin more than we hate us, and they were captured alive by us. Today's Baekje people have begun to distrust them, and the only way to go is to join me, Datang.

Now, I have given them great trust. Believe me, these two people will definitely come back after seeing Yunchu's behavior in Dahang City. "

Wang Fangyi sighed and said, "I just hope that Yunchu doesn't make Dahang City too horrible."

Pei Xingjian laughed and said: "Yun Chu is good at governing the region, so he is more familiar with how to exploit the people than we are. Therefore, today's Dahang City must be two extremes with his beloved Wannian County."

It was completely different from what Pei Xingjian and Wang Fangyi thought.

From the very beginning, Yunchu never thought of ruling in Dahang City in a style of exhausting the lake and fishing.

Only when Dahang City developed well and became a source of income for the imperial court would the imperial court attach importance to Liaodong, so that it would not feel that Silla had occupied the entire peninsula and that it was not worth fighting for those lands.

It would not be a case of a rebellion in Yingzhou, and Yingzhou was allowed to become an optional land.

From now on, Yunchu is selecting suitable businessmen to enter Dahang City. He has no plan to build Dahang City into a city with comprehensive industries. If the industries are complete, the end will be to create another Goguryeo or Bohai Kingdom. . …

Therefore, Dahang City needs to become a city that focuses on the service industry. Iron smelting, armor making, and horse breeding must be strictly controlled by the government, and the scale must not be enlarged, as long as it is enough for its own use.

Therefore, shipping, fur, medicinal materials, gambling, brothels, and hotels are the industries that Dahang City should really vigorously develop.

What Yunchu needs is a city with extremely abnormal development, and through a deformed industry like Dahang City, it will be firmly tied to Datang's domestic market.

He believed that the ginseng industry alone would make Dahang City the most dazzling pearl in the land of Liaodong.

The goods that Heizhi Changzhi and Sha Zhaxiangru brought were ginseng antlers. Originally, Pei Xingjian wanted to hand over some tattered leather armor and weapons seized from Cong Goguryeo's army to these two people, so that they could contact Yunchu more easily. Because these things are sought-after good things no matter in Silla or Baekje.

Later, he felt that he couldn't create too good opportunities for these two people. Yun Chu, who was as cunning as a fox, might think of taking advantage of the opportunity that these two people could get weapons, so as to treat them courteously.

It just so happened that Wang Fangyi robbed a ginseng shop, so he packed all these things and asked Hei Chi Changzhi to bring them to Dahang City.

Based on Pei Xingjian and Wang Fangyi's understanding of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, this kind of precious medicinal material would basically be looted by the government soldiers immediately, so what happened to Hei Chi Chang Zhi and the two of them can be imagined. |7|4||Look at the latest chapter of Tangren's Dining Table.

Only by exposing Yun Chu's ugliest side to Hei Chi Chang Zhi can these two people accept their fate.

In fact, these two kinds of ginseng are very new and precious medicinal materials, and their origin has a lot to do with Yunchu.

It was Yunchu who found out that the Pingzhun medicine store he had set up in Jinchangfang was not making any money after giving too many medicines to ordinary people.

Naturally, this is impossible.

Therefore, Yunchu told the old god about the effects of the ginseng and deer antler he had found. After the old god tested it, he found that the effect was very good, so he praised it casually. The price of drugs with similar effects has increased a hundredfold.

Anyway, ordinary people would not touch such expensive medicinal materials if they had nothing to do. Even if they needed it, there were plenty of other cheap medicinal materials that could be substituted.

Because it was a medicinal material, the guards guarding Haihaibing Wharf naturally did not send Hei Chichang and his party to the so-called Black Wharf, but sent them ashore from the White Wharf in a serious manner.

There are many merchants from various countries coming ashore from the White Wharf, although when seeing the bouncing Japanese merchants, Black Tooth Changzhi frowned.

Baekje and Wa Kingdom are closest. He doesn't like this group of people who are servile in the face of powerful tribes and arrogant and powerless in the face of weak tribes.

There was nothing to say about the process of carrying the goods ashore on a horse-drawn sledge. The soldiers of the Datang government neither showed enthusiasm nor showed any special disgust. , Seeing how I used to be a general of Baekje.

If one had to come up with a metaphor, it would be a businesslike face.

The government soldiers searched the goods he brought, but they were just inspections, and there was no such bad phenomenon as black-toothed Changzhi thought of snatching or stealing. …

The government soldiers seemed to be accustomed to seeing Baekje businessmen like them for a long time, so they had nothing to say to them along the way. After sending them to the port, they drove back with the sledge.

Sha Zha Xiangru said: "I can't see anything yet."

Black-toothed Changzhi said: "I hope that everything comes from Pei Xingjian's jealousy.

However, this is just the beginning, there are still many things to see and many things to experience. "

The two carried the goods ashore with their hands and shoulders, and saw many people queuing behind a fence.

Hei Chi Changzhi only found out after asking a Baekje merchant in front of him that the first thing merchants face when they go ashore is to estimate the value of the goods, and then pay taxes according to the value of the goods.From the bitter face of the Baekje businessman, Changzhi with black teeth knew that this place should be the place where the Tang people plundered and squeezed the businessmen.

After experiencing the cruel environment in Baekje, Changzhi Heizhi even thought that if he only lost a part of his money, it would be far better than staying in Baekje and accepting the burning, killing and looting of the Tang people.

When Hei Chi Changzhi came to the front, when he reported that he was from Baekje, the soldiers guarding the fence impatiently asked him to go to the Baekje passage to handle the matters of leaving the harbor .

Hei Chi Changzhi didn't expect this, and he came before a guy with a strong Baekje merchant aura.

At this moment, Hei Chi Chang Zhi felt like an animal, being fattened and thinned by the guy in front of him, estimating the price.

"It's a pity that someone as strong as you doesn't want to be a soldier."

The guy in front of him, who has changed from a Baekje merchant to a small official in the Tang Dynasty, once opened his mouth, Hei Chi Chang Zhi didn't know how to answer.

Unexpectedly, people didn't seem to expect him to answer.While asking his subordinates to inspect the goods brought by Hei Chi Chang Zhi and others, he said to himself, "They all ran over, what else is there for Baekje?"

Sha Zha Xiangru couldn't help but retorted: "Didn't you also come here? How can you blame others for your own injustice?"

The little official laughed, pointed at Sha Zha and said, "It's not easy to come to Dahang City alive, so let's stop laughing at each other."

Black Tooth Chang Zhi said: "Can Baekje people survive here?"

The little official pointed to his nose and said, "Am I dead?"

Hei Chi Chang Zhi smiled and said, "No."

"I was originally a merchant in Baekje. After I lost my money, I came to Dahang City. I thought I would starve to death. Unexpectedly, Datang gave me a job and a meal. People like me who have no money are in Dahang City. A city can live, and a luxurious person like you can naturally live too.

It's just that half of the goods have to be paid as city entry tax. "

Hei Chi Chang Yi didn't understand the meaning of the little official's words for a while, and wanted to ask again but was urged by the Baekje people behind him, so he had to watch the little official take away half of his goods.

He could see clearly that exactly half of the goods were taken away, neither more nor less.

From the looks of it, Dahang City is a place with rules.

In troubled times, as long as there are rules, no matter how unreasonable the rules are, people can survive.

When Hei Chi Chang Zhi left the port with longing and entered Dahang City, he suddenly found that the soldiers guarding the port did not chase after them, nor did they take a second look at them.

Standing on the street of Dahang City, looking at the busy pedestrians and the shops doing business, Hei Chi Chang Zhi said to Sha Zha, "If I am not blind, then Pei Xingjian is talking nonsense. .”
