Neon Clothes and Iron Clothes

Chapter 542
Ijilian Bode didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and thought to himself that he might as well go back to Songzhou and report these things to Wang Wenzuo, and leave the matter of withdrawing money to Wang Ence.Thinking of this, he took a step back and let Wang Ence go: "This young gentleman is the brother of Wang Dudu. I have to go back to Songzhou first if I have something to do. If I can't make it back then, he will come here." Withdraw money!"

"Brother Wang Dudu!" Cai Dingshan and others were taken aback, and hurriedly pushed away and bowed down: "I didn't know the identity of Mr. Xiaolang just now, please forgive me for being rude!"

Wang Ence had been sitting by the side just now, and saw Cai Dingshan and others surrounding Ijilian Bode to compliment him, ignoring himself as a transparent person. He was a little annoyed at first, but was suddenly introduced by Ijilian Bode to all the merchants, and asked him to collect A huge sum of [-] guan was gathered around Luo Bai, he was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly smiled and said: "It's okay, I will trouble you all about the money!"

"It's only [-] guan, please don't worry, Mr. Xiaolang!" Cai Dingshan said with a smile, "It's just where does Mr. Xiaolang live these days?"

Wang Ence glanced at Yiji Lianbode, and said with a smile, "Stay in the post house in the south of the city temporarily!"

"Xiao Langjun, I have a house with three entrances and three exits not far away. Although it is not spacious, it is still clean. Why don't you stay there temporarily for a few days, and I will ask for advice and greetings day and night. When the time comes The money will be delivered to the mansion, what does Xiao Lang think?"

Wang Ence and Yiji Lianbode exchanged glances. Cai Dingshan's suggestion actually has a dual purpose. First, it can curry favor with Wang Ence, and second, the [-] guan money piled up is a huge pile. .Yiji Lianbode nodded: "Proprietor Cai is so thoughtful, thank you for your trouble!"

"Don't dare!" Cai Dingshan was overjoyed when he was praised by Yiji Lianbode. He immediately called a few assistants and followed Wang Ence and Yiji Lianbode to the posthouse to pick up their luggage. The figure disappeared before getting up and going back.

"Lord Cai! This time, you have become the younger brother of Wang Dudu, and I will rely on you from now on!" The man with the white cloth on his head laughed.

"The nobleman just lives in my house, and I don't own it alone! If you want to get close, you can go to visit sooner or later!" Cai Dingshan said with a smile: "It's not surprising that there are many people, are you right?"

"That's right!" The man with his head wrapped in a white cloth patted his head: "It's almost noon, I'll go to Jinxiu Building in the east of the city to order a banquet for delivery, everyone don't want to compete with me!" After finishing speaking, he hurried away up.

The man with his head wrapped in white cloth raised his head, and these merchants left one after another and went back to their own affairs.Only Zhuge Wen didn't leave, and said to Cai Dingshan with a smile: "Brother Cai, what are your plans for entertaining the nobles!"

"It's enough for a few of them to do this kind of thing. You and I should think more about what Wang Dudu entrusted!" Cai Dingshan said: "If this thing can be done well, the nobleman will naturally miss you and me. As for eating and drinking Enjoying this little thing, does he still know less?"

"Not bad!" Zhuge Wen's expression became serious: "Brother Cai is talking about fundraising? I will send the money as soon as possible!"

"It's about fundraising, but it's not all about fundraising!" Cai Dingshan said: "The person who can sit at my tea table can still afford a thousand guan. I can also make up for this part. But Wang Dudu raised funds for road construction, and road construction is not something that can be done with money. If we merchants can think about things ahead and make preparations, Wang Dudu and Xiao Langjun will be right. Let's see it differently!"

"Well, what Brother Cai said is that the younger brother has been taught!" Zhuge Wen nodded: "According to what you said, the younger brother will go back and make preparations!"

"You really should prepare well!" Cai Dingshan said with a smile: "Among the businesses of the few of us, your business is actually most closely related to Wang Dudu's road construction. If Wang Dudu's road construction is completed, your tea horse business will be doubled." Not surprisingly!"

"Yes, right now, many places on Songpan Road are difficult to pass, and there is no suitable campsite, so there are not many business travelers coming and going. If Wang Dudu's plan is realized, the number of mules and horses coming and going will increase seven or eight times at least. There are not many mules and horses, and most of them have to be bought from Qingkang, and this business alone can make me unable to eat it all!"

"Yes! In fact, the [-] yuan is just an introduction. After we paid this money, we will have the opportunity to earn back the money, or even earn more. As for whether we can earn it or not, it depends on ourselves. That's what Wang Dudu should mean!" Cai Dingshan said.

Speaking of this, Zhuge Wen and Cai Dingshan were already very excited. Among the few people at the tea table just now, although the two of them were not the most wealthy, they were the most knowledgeable and tolerant. Cai Dingshan was older, so it was hidden Everyone in the world looked forward to Cai Dingshan's leadership.Others were still thinking of pleasing Wang Ence himself, hugging their thighs, Zhuge Wen and Cai Dingshan had already thought of the various benefits that Wang Wenzuo's road construction could bring to businessmen.

"Yiji, thank you very much this time!" After leaving the pharmacy, Wang Ence felt happy: "Thanks to coming to Chengdu with you this time, if I stayed in Songzhou, how could I be so happy!"

"Young Lord, don't thank me!" Igillian Bode said with a smile: "Actually, this is all arranged by the governor, I just obeyed orders!"

"His arrangement?" Wang Ence was stunned: "Why don't I remember? Didn't he tell me to learn more from you? He didn't say that!"

"Hehehe!" Yiji Lianbode laughed: "Young master, you are wrong to blame the Dudu. The ancients said: Parents love their children deeply, so they have far-reaching plans for them. The eldest brother is a father, and the Dudu treats you like He is like a child, that's why he said these words. If he doesn't want you to live more comfortably, why did he let you come to Chengdu with me? Doesn't he know that Chengdu is full of beauty?"

"Really?" Wang Ence was stunned.

"Of course!" Igillian Bode said with a smile: "As the governor, did he still tell me that he would treat you preferentially? Some things don't need to be said at all!"

Wang Ence fell into silence. He recalled his experience with Wang Wenzuo during this time. Could it be that Wang Wenzuo really regarded himself as a brother as the Japanese said?No, how is this possible?Obviously I have no blood relationship with him, not only that, but he was sent to Baekje as his scapegoat, so I can be regarded as his enemy.

"However, Mr. Xiao Lang still needs to pay attention to a few things in Chengdu!"

"Ah? What's the matter?" Wang Ence raised his head and asked.

"One is money, and the other is a waist card!" Yiji Lianbode: "Twenty thousand guan is not a small amount. Money touches people's hearts, and such a large amount of money is also a big trouble; the other is the waist card. Li Jin gave you the waist card." , but you are still a member of Songzhou Governor's Mansion after all, if you cause big trouble, the governor will also have a headache! Do you understand?"

"Yeah!" Wang Ence nodded, "Then I'll just stay in that house these days, and just don't go anywhere!"

"This is the best way!" Iggy Lianbode said with a smile: "I brought 40 people this time, and I will leave half of them for you. Give you an official status!"

--------------------------------

Yazhou, Dajianlu (now Kangding), the Tubo general's mansion.

"Lang Ri, you are really a rare guest!" Yang Jin picked up a sheep bone, and Kara broke it with force, as if it was a sugarcane, greedily sucking the bone marrow, and asked vaguely: "Why are you willing to leave Zanpu?" By your side, aren't you afraid that the place will be taken up by other sycophants?"

"Isn't it because someone lost two battles in a row that I had to give up the charming black-eyed girls in the palace and come to your wild place on a horse?" Lang Ri carefully picked up a piece of mutton with a sharp knife, while He said with a smile: "As for the position next to Zanpu, you don't have to worry about me. When it comes to pleasing women, no one in the entire palace can compare to me! As long as I want, I can take the position back at any time !"

"Hehehe!" Yang Jin laughed: "You are not bragging about this, the women in the palace will speak for you, as long as you want, Zanpu's ears will always speak for you. It’s nothing, it’s just two contact battles, luck is on the side of the Tang people, if there is a real fight, the Tang people will know how powerful we Tibetans are!"

"I don't think so!" The smile on Lang Ri's face disappeared: "Tang Ren is not from Tuyuhun, you should be very clear about my mission this time, if you can't give me a satisfactory answer, then I can only take you Back to the palace!"

The muscles on Yang Jin's dark face twitched, his expression was ferocious, his eyes were full of hatred, and he stared at Lang Ri viciously. Few people could face this without fear, and it happened that Lang Ri was one of them, he was calm He and Yang Jin looked at each other indifferently.A few minutes later, Yang Jin snorted coldly and turned his head away: "As I said, it was just two contact battles. It was just a coincidence, and not many soldiers were lost. The most important thing is that the Tang people have sent envoys to , demand an armistice and exchange of prisoners!"

"The people of Tang sent envoys to ask for an armistice and exchange of prisoners?" Lang Ri frowned, "Are you sure this is not a trap? I have never heard of a victorious war asking for an armistice, and you who lost a war. How could you?" The Tang people who came here exchanged captives?"

"It's absolutely true that the envoys of the Tang people haven't left yet. If you don't believe me, you can take a look!" Yang Jin spread his hands, "As for the exchange of prisoners, the Tang people demanded that our captured soldiers be exchanged for Qiang slaves. Of course, it is not a one-to-one ratio." exchange!"

"Then how did you answer?"

"I haven't given an answer yet. I plan to hang him out for a few days and observe it! Anyway, it's winter now, and the road is slow, and it's normal to procrastinate!"

"Well, it seems that you are not stupid enough!" Lang Ri nodded in satisfaction, and then began to think: "However, Tang Ren's behavior is very strange, I suspect there is a trick behind it!"

"In my opinion, it's okay. Although the Tang people won the two battles, they suffered a lot of casualties, especially the first time. The Tang general didn't want to fight, so he sent someone to ask for an armistice and peace talks!"

"Yang Jin!" Lang Ri looked at Yang Jin, as if he was looking at a fool: "When will the war be decided by the generals of the Tang Dynasty? This is something that can only be decided by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, at least the prime minister. Don't you Have you heard? The Tang people have already increased their troops in Longyou to store food, and they will use troops against our country next year. At this juncture, the Tang generals in Songzhou have asked for a truce, how is this possible?"

"You mean he's lying to me?" Yang Jin said angrily, "I'm going to beat this guy to death with a whip!"

"It's not necessary. The two countries are fighting without killing!" Lang Ri laughed and said, "Besides, the most important thing is to find out the tricks behind the Tang people, not to kill a few people!"

Yang Jin nodded, and he looked at Lang Ri: "Then what do you think should be done? I remember that you went to Chang'an to study, and you should be able to see through Tang Ren's tricks!"

Lang Ri didn't speak, obviously he was thinking about countermeasures.Yang Jin didn't dare to speak, which disturbed the other party's train of thought. After a while, Lang Ri said: "It's useless to speculate here, it's best to meet in person!"

"It's simple, I'll arrange for you to meet with the envoy of the Tang Dynasty immediately!" Yang Jin laughed.

"No, no, that's not what I meant!" Lang Ri waved his hand: "I mean to meet Tang Ren's envoy as a bystander, so that he won't notice me, let alone be wary of me , I can know more things!"

"Then what do you mean?" Yang Jin asked puzzled.

"It's very simple, you find a guard who is about the same size as me, ask him to take off his clothes and put them on for me, and then ask me to pretend to be your guard when we meet the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, do you understand what I mean?"

"Understood!" Yang Jin nodded excitedly: "Lang Ri, it seems that in addition to pleasing women in the palace, you have learned a lot of other useful things!"

----------------------

After dinner was finished and the others left one after another, Lang Ri sat down by the stove and picked up a glass of scalded mead. The time of studying abroad in Chang'an had an indelible imprint on him. He liked Tang people's wine, Tang people's wine Clothes, poetry of the Tang Dynasty, and even women of the Tang Dynasty.The other Tubo nobles secretly said that he had become a complete Tang man, but Lang Ri didn't care.In his normal life, he said unabashedly that if he had a choice, he would prefer to be a Tang native and live in Chang'an or Luoyang.

As a result, when Mansong Manzan Zanpu questioned Langri about this matter, Langri said with a smile: "Dear Zanpu, if possible, wouldn't you also be willing to be the emperor of Tang Dynasty instead of Zanpu of Tubo? The emperor of Tang does not need to meet with the nobles once a year to keep the nobles submit to him!"

No one knew Mansong Mangzanpu's reaction at the time, but after this incident, Lang Ri became the most trusted servant of Mansong Mangzanpu.Many people thought it was the result of the women around Zanpu saying good things for the beautiful man Lang Ri, but those who were familiar with the palace knew that Mansong Manzan Zanpu didn't really love women that much.
