The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

Chapter 206 Business (thanks to Meng Ziting fairy's monthly ticket~)

Li Sanniang listened to Li Kui and Wang Gui's discussion while eating soup cakes.

Isn't this the Longevity Festival to celebrate Emperor Wu's birthday?

The Wanshou Festival was firstly held to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Wu, and secondly to show the glory of the Heavenly Kingdom to the small affiliated countries around the Tang Dynasty, and then to a certain extent, it could drive the local economic development centered on Chang'an.

This is also one of the reasons why the Ministry of Household Affairs is willing to approve funds. Of course, it is to spend part of it first, and to recover more later.

Because Emperor Wu was relatively tough, he really killed a lot of people when he first succeeded to the throne, even those who were disobedient in the Tang Dynasty, regardless of whether you are a family of ministers or princes and nobles, who are disobedient Said to kill is really killed.

So, how does she manage the aliens who are making trouble in the frontier?
Emperor Wu insisted, I beat you to the ground, you surrendered, listen to me, you are a good man.

But Emperor Wu was a little different, she never let others encroach on her interests for the sake of fame.

For example, after the foreign race surrendered, it obeyed and violated, and it will rebel again in a few years, such as the recent Turkic rebellion case.

If this is to be placed on the emperors before Emperor Wu, they must send troops to beat them down, then surrender, and reward them with something, that's all.

Even the rulers of these small frontier countries are still the same group.

But, how could Emperor Wu do such a loss-making business?
For example, what happened in Goguryeo recently. It was obvious that he became a minister five years ago, but he didn’t pay tribute last year. Emperor Wu directly sent troops to kill the current king, the king’s direct descendants, and the rebellious ministers behind him. Seven or eight-year-old Xiao Lang will be the new king.

Originally, before Emperor Wu sent troops, there were civil servants in the court who said that such use of swords and soldiers was not in harmony with the heavens, and the people who provoked wars were the people who suffered.

Emperor Wu listened to him face to face, and when he turned around, he sent an urgent edict for eight hundred miles to the generals stationed in Linhai. I didn’t say the original words, but the vernacular said, “Beat them down for me, and kill everyone who should be killed. Don’t worry about food and grass. I will send it to you later, Aiqing, I depend on you for my dignity!"

By the time the courtiers reacted, the first seven days of the previous king of Goguryeo were over.

Since then, the surrounding small countries that surrendered to the Heavenly Power of the Tang Dynasty, such as the Wa country next to Goguryeo, Annan and Nanzhao in the south, and many tribes and small countries in the west, all hurriedly sent people to Chang'an with gifts. .

The envoys brought letters of credence written by their kings one after another, expressing a unified meaning, "Datang is the boss, we are all younger brothers, younger brothers should listen to the boss, whatever the boss says, we are very good, don't kill us. "

Therefore, this time Emperor Wu's whole life, although it can not be said that all nations will come to court, envoys from dozens of small countries and tribes will definitely come to present gifts, and Chang'an City will definitely be very lively at that time.

Li Sanniang didn't go to Dongxi Market, nor did she go to the Nine Gates of Chang'an City.

The queue at the city gate had been lining up five or six days ago.

Because of the curfew, some people were afraid that they would not be able to make it in time. After the curfew, those who had not yet entered the city set up tents outside the city, waiting to enter the city early the next morning.

Therefore, you can predict how much people will flow in Chang'an City during the Longevity Festival, right?
This is why Li Kui believed that if Wang Gui went to Zhuque Street to sell things, he would definitely be able to make money.

As long as there is traffic, your things will have a chance to be sold, and as long as they are sold, you can make money.

"So you want to sell fruit?"

"Yes, there is a mountain in the north of our village. There is a kind of sour fruit on the mountain. It is sweet and sour, and it is very delicious. Earlier, my fellow villagers and I collected a lot, thinking that each of us would bring two baskets to Chang'an city. selling."

Wang Gui smiled honestly: "The first time we came here, we didn't understand that we had to ask the Yamen for a number plate in advance to sell goods in the market, but we met Brother Li, who helped us out of the siege.

This time around the Longevity Day, we wanted to earn more money, so we decided to come to the city to sell fruit at that time. "

Li Kui, a dark-skinned and bearded man, is not a local either. Because of his strength, he used to carry big bags for others in the shop earlier, but later he managed a middleman business with his wit and brains, and got a few With no money, I started to do this middleman's work of pulling fibers.

Although Li Kui was tall and rough, but he was bold and loyal. He also knew a lot of government servants on the official side, he was generous, and he had a good relationship with them, so he could always get some news ahead of others.

This time I also learned about it from a yamen under the Jingzhao Mansion, so I approached Wang Gui and told him to sell it on Zhuque Street, and it would definitely make money.

After listening to the two of you talking to each other, Li Sanniang finished her soup and cakes, and drank all the soup at the bottom of the bowl cherishingly. Li Sanniang wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and turned to Li Kui and Wang Guier. The man smiled and said, "I do have some ideas. Listen to me, gentlemen?"

Li Kui felt that Li Sanniang was not that ordinary little girl just now, knowing his own appearance made him suffer a lot.

Not to mention the little girl, even a man would not think that he is a good person when he looks at him with big arms, round waist, dark skin and beard, and loud voice.

If it wasn't for doing this street-to-street middleman business, I knew a lot of people on the street, otherwise I would definitely be regarded as a villain by default.

Once, he saw a child accidentally knocked down by someone and wanted to help him, but the child's mother thought he was beating the child, and shouted out all the people on the street. The street patrolmen are here soon, the little boy is only three or four years old, and he was so frightened that he burst into tears, how can he come out and explain?
Li Kui was wronged and almost cried on the spot.

In the end, an old man who was sitting in a roadside teahouse rushed over and explained to everyone that he saw another person running into the boy and Li Kui was there to help him.

This cleared up the misunderstanding.

Li Kui saw the woman holding the child awkwardly and kept apologizing to himself, so he said nothing, waved his hand and left.

But since then, he will not be so reckless. If he encounters someone who needs help, he will mostly watch from the sidelines and call others to help, just to make sure that no one will have an accident.

This was the case when Wang Gui and his fellow countrymen came out to sell fruit. He walked around the market and saw a dispute with the yamen. Gui and the others got to know each other after they got out of the siege.

"Miss Li San has insight just by looking at it, and she is from Chang'an City, so she must have a good idea."

Li Sanniang smiled, and neither admitted nor refuted. When she first came, she had to worry about money because of the matter of He Li and needed to buy a house to establish a female household.

Thinking about earning more money, if it wasn't for saving people and wanting to practice medicine, this would not be a daily article about female doctors in the Tang Dynasty, but an article about the heroine traveling through farming and doing business.
