Chapter 1344 Meet Yao Yuanguang again

Xintei's spirit is indeed different from ordinary people.

After briefly paying homage to Emperor Gaozu's cemetery, the new emperor had already set off for Liangdi.

There was food on the carriage, and many cavalrymen also wore supplies. This allowed the convoy to not stop at major cities, but to run continuously for more than eight days.

This almost made Zhang Xuezhou's time in this world run away.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't like to waste time on travel. In the real world, he went to the Thousand Islands Alliance lying down. It was rare for him to sit on a carriage and sway like this.

This inevitably made him think about traveling to the north with Dong Zhongshu a few years ago.

At that time, they traveled for several months.

At present, they are traveling through official roads. Some local officials have even summoned a large number of civilians to build roads in advance to ensure smooth passage.

"Yangxin County!"

When the convoy stopped for a rest for the first time, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but step out of the carriage and take a look at this small city.

"Actually, this is my first time here," Sang Hongyang said, "The fiefdom of our eldest princess is in Yangxin County, so I know something about it!"

"Brother Hongyang is really knowledgeable!"

He observed many of his colleagues around him and found that he didn't know many people, and it was even rarer that he had close friendships. Most of them looked like strangers, and there were many people who were checking out their peers.

Only after Sang Hongyang said a few words did he have a vague sense of direction.

"This Yangxin County is in Bohai County," Sang Hongyang said: "If you go further north, you will reach the northern boundary, and to the southwest, you will reach Liangdi!"

After the carriage stopped, Sang Hongyang also came to the city gate to watch the excitement.

"Brother Hongyang!"

Zhang Xuezhou immediately understood why the motorcade stopped at this place.

No different from Zhang Xuezhou, Sang Hongyang also sat in the carriage for eight days, eating, drinking and sleeping in the carriage. Only then did he have time to walk around.

In this case, Sang Hongyang could only find old friends first, and rarely get to know anyone new.

The eldest princess Sang Hongyang mentioned was the biological sister of the new emperor and the daughter of Emperor Jing.

Zhang Xuezhou looked at the completely unfamiliar city and felt that he had not yet found his direction.

Many people have a hint of vitality and maintain a certain distance and caution.

For Sang Hongyang, it is very important to find out the place as soon as possible.

At this time, Zhang Xuezhou stared at the words on the tower for a while, and then Sang Hongyang came up.

The new emperor brought with him all his cronies, most of whom were young people.

"I see!"

He walked around and walked near the city gate before seeing Zhang Xuezhou.

"Brother Dongfang!"

It took many days for Zhang Xuezhou to meet Sang Hongyang, whom he had interacted with before.

The other party's title is like that of a smaller Dou Taizu, but the power of the Empress Dowager is too great, and the Empress Dowager is not conspicuous, which also makes the reputation of Princess Yang Xinchang not obvious.

Today's new emperor came to his sister's house, and it was natural for him to stay temporarily.

Everyone is arranged to camp outside the city. If you have money, you can go to the city to stay in a hotel or go shopping in the city. All you need to do is report clearly or return to the camp on time. The rules of the convoy in Yangxin County are not strict. There are almost no restrictions. Zhang Xuezhou took Rong Tianding and invited Sang Hongyang, and everyone entered the city together.

Compared with the bustling and crowded Chang'an City, Yangxin County is indeed much more deserted, but it is much better than Chengdu.

This is the fiefdom of the eldest princess, so naturally it won't be too poor. There is no shortage of food and daily necessities on the streets.

"The ground here is cold, and coarse cloth can still be produced and sold by ourselves, but finer cloth has to be transferred from other places. The price is 60% higher than that of Chang'an and 50% higher than that of Luoyang. If we can bring some cloth, If it’s sold here, it must be great!”

Everyone bought some snacks along the way and observed the customs and customs of Yangxin City. Sang Hongyang was extremely sensitive to prices, and casual words were business opportunities.

"Cousin, should we bring a few carts of cloth to sell?" Rong Tianding whispered: "This is much more cost-effective than selling seeds!"

"Brother Hongyang's price comparison is of course accurate, but if we want to do this cloth business, we need to consign the cloth for thousands of miles. The carriages and horses are a sum of money, the manpower is a sum of money, and the food, drink, escorts, and city crossing expenses along the way, etc. It's all expenses." Zhang Xuezhou said: "When we get to Yangxin County, if the price of this cloth is too high, no one wants it, if it is too low, we won't make any money. Judging from the number of people coming and going in this city, we probably won't be able to sell it all in a while. , if you are sniped by the cloth merchants in this city, you may have to pay for it."

"There are many connections in this, and this business seems difficult to do," Rong Tianding said suddenly.

"Only those who specialize in this business can make money. If you buy a large amount of cloth rashly, you will definitely lose money," Zhang Xuezhou said.

"I thought this was like buying millet in the West Market!"

"There's no way to move in and out quickly. Even transporting Luoyang City to Chang'an City will be difficult to do business!"

Zhang Xuezhou laughed.

In reality, with developed transportation, it is difficult to transport goods to various places for sale, let alone when transportation is inconvenient.

In the past, they had transported salt and other items from Shu County to the Northern Territory for sale, but lost most of the salt along the way. By the time they arrived in the Northern Territory, they had lost both their people and money.

Sang Hongyang's price comparison business opportunity is only suitable for some people as a reference, and it is almost impossible to make a quick fortune.

"Brother Dongfang is very insightful" Sang Hongyang agreed: "Price is only an important factor in business behavior, but whether it can achieve business success requires the cooperation of many factors. If you cannot achieve the ultimate fast in and fast out, you will be staring at it. Most people who do business with price differences cannot make money..."

Sang Hongyang strongly agrees with what Zhang Xuezhou said.

As long as it involves mathematics and business, Sang Hongyang is undoubtedly very interested and will discuss it almost endlessly.

With such a young companion who likes to do business in the stall, Zhang Xuezhou had no choice but to cooperate. After all, he talked about everything, and he would not kill anyone if he said a few more words.

"Cousin, look and see if that person is taking us to Mount Tai!"

Only when Rong Tianding touched Zhang Xuezhou's arm did Zhang Xuezhou shift his attention.

"Li...it's actually him?"

There were not many people who could interact with Zhang Xuezhou and others in Taishan. Zhang Xuezhou originally thought that Rong Tianding was talking about Li Shaojun. When he looked in the direction that Rong Tianding pointed in a low voice, he immediately saw his cheap uncle Yao Yuanguang.

"He has already obtained the longevity elixir. What is he doing here now?"

The direction Rong Tianding pointed was a restaurant, and Yao Yuanguang was eating and drinking in the restaurant at this time.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't expect to see Yao Yuanguang in such a place.

Taishan is located in the Bohai County area, so it is not surprising that Yao Yuanguang is nearby.

But if Yao Yuanguang wants to find a place to eat and drink, he doesn't need to come to Yangxin City.

Zhang Xuezhou was slightly alert. He felt that Yao Yuanguang was more likely to be waiting in advance, as if he was waiting here to do something.
