Datang first village

Yuan Gai Su Wen also approached.

Every shop here has a small flag representing its own shop raised high on a bamboo pole. There are almost thirteen or four houses, and they all use bamboo poles to prop up their own clothes, and two people carry them.

Each family has at least ten different kinds of clothes.

There are more than 200 of these merchants alone.

There were hundreds of people watching the excitement, and some women were actually asking about the price of clothes, among them, many women dressed in Silla, Baekje, and even Goguryeo were asking here.

A small door has been opened, and people carrying clothes are entering the door one by one.

But there are too many clothes, and within half an hour, these clothes and the boxes piled up like a hill can't be lifted at all. Besides, there are no less than [-] carriages here, and some people are packing clothes beside the carriages. Support it with bamboo poles and join the new queue.

"This is the big family that buys clothes. Why do they buy mostly Goguryeo clothes?" Yuan Gai Suwen found a man dressed as a businessman who was directing the queue to enter the courtyard and asked.

The businessman didn't even turn his head: "Didn't you read the newspaper? Yaozhou chooses merchants. Only four garment shops are qualified to sell garments in Yaozhou."

"Then this is?" Yuan Gai Suwen is not a modern person after all, he doesn't understand business, so naturally he doesn't understand this rule at all.

"Quick, quick, hurry up and carry that box in, and everyone can rest for a while." The businessman in charge watched the last box enter the yard, and then heaved a long sigh of relief and wiped the box. After Khan turned around, he saw that the other party was dressed in Goguryeo costumes, with an expression that you didn't understand.

Yuan Gai Suwen did not dare to say that he was a member of the Goguryeo envoy, but only said: "I am a businessman from Goguryeo who came to Datang. Seeing your beautiful clothes, I wonder if I can consider trading."

The businessman took out a refined card from his body.

This is the ancient business card, which is about four times larger than the modern one. It is exquisitely crafted and printed in a pure woodblock printing method. It not only has text, but also exquisite pictures and the logo of the shop.Assuming that one printing plate can print [-] sheets, these three business cards are worth one Qin Wang's money.

Yuan Gai Suwen took the piece of paper

It has the name of the shop, the street number of Dongshi, the name of the merchant, and the business scope of the shop.

He secretly praised in his heart, this Datang businessman is really good.

Yuan Gai Suwen asked again: "I really haven't heard of this theory of business selection!"

"Yaozhou is a big business. The population of a state is almost half that of Chang'an City. There are nearly 60 people, including 39 Goguryeo women, and some say 43. These figures we Ordinary people naturally don’t know the accuracy, but it’s definitely not a minority.”

Hearing this number, Yuan Gaisuwen was not surprised at all. At first when the Khitans and Mohes harassed the border villages of Goguryeo, it was women who were taken away.

Originally, Goguryeo had experienced wars with the former Sui Dynasty, and with Silla, men were only half of the number of women, or even less.

In addition to robbing people, men may resist, so it is not surprising that most of the slaves captured and sold are women.

Datang occupied Liaocheng and Jian'an in Goguryeo. These two are not considered borders, but they are big cities in the territory. Together with the surrounding villages, they also attacked individual small cities. Before and after, Goguryeo lost nearly 12 households.

According to Yuangai Suwen's calculations, more than 40 Goguryeo women are in Yaozhou, which should not be nonsense.

In fact, there are more women in Yaozhou because of the road construction in Luoyang, more than 5 strong male slaves were taken to Luoyang, which makes Yaozhou more women.

But after thinking about it, no, these captured Goguryeo women should have been slaves in the Tang Dynasty.

Just as Yuan Gai Suwen wanted to ask, he heard someone shouting something from the other street, the businessman hurriedly cupped his hands: "Apologize, apologise!" After saying that, he ran over in a hurry.

The envoy of Goguryeo said to Yuan Gai Suwen: "Quickly ask to understand!"

Yuan Gai Suwen also followed the businessman, turned a corner, and saw a group of carriages parked in front of the magnificent gate, the main gate was not opened, and the side gates were all opened.

"Here we come, the honored guests have arrived!" Someone shouted.

Some businessmen also ran back and shouted at their subordinates: "Hurry up and carry it into the courtyard, be careful not to break one and you will be punished heavily!"

The businessman who was talking to Yuan Gai Suwen stopped at the corner of the street: "It seems that there will be no competition in a day or two. There are quite a few people who come here. I'm afraid this review will take a few trials!"

Another businessman smiled and stood beside this businessman, and handed over a pack of small store hearts: "If I am selected, I will share this huge profit opportunity with my brother." The woman in gorgeous clothes winked, and the woman walked forward quickly with a small bag.

"Thank you!" The businessman who took the dessert cupped his hands.

"I and you have the same master. There are no branches!"

Yuan Gai Su Wen also stood up, bowed his hands in the etiquette of Tang Dynasty: "These are the judges, they are the ones who decide whose clothes can be sold in Yaozhou, but I don't understand, I heard that all the girls of my Goguryeo in Yaozhou are Slave, the owner of the house is so generous, not to mention, I saw a lot of gorgeous clothes!"

"Don't underestimate Yaozhou!" The businessman pointed to those who were getting off the bus. Although they were not gorgeously dressed, they were definitely not slaves, and even dressed higher than ordinary Goguryeo women.

Yuan Gai Suwen looked over, and a woman carrying a bundle was walking over.

Who is this woman.Even the shopkeeper who made Jin Manqing's custom-made clothes that day is also half the owner of that shop.At this time, I went over with a burden, although I didn't dare to cheat by giving gifts, but I wanted to get acquainted.

"Dear guests, I don't know that distinguished guest is from the Yaozhou Pharmaceutical Bureau. The gold plumber ordered the clothes."

At that moment, a woman who seemed to be in her early 20s came out, holding a note in her hand, and said in unfamiliar Chinese: "I am planning to go to Dongshi tomorrow, thank you very much!"

That note was the slip for Jin Manqing to pick up the clothes.

Unpacking the package on the spot, 68 Goguryeo female butlers, [-] male foremen, and two officials in charge of Yaozhou came here. The officials didn't bother to take care of these trivial matters, and the butlers stood aside to watch the hot spots.Instead, all the housekeepers gathered around and helped to open the clothes.

"Datang Rainbow Brocade!" Yuan Gai Su Wen exclaimed.

"It's a pity that there is no brocade in the small shop. The Yaozhou gold pipe worker has the position of a seventh-rank official, and he manages more than 5000 people. I heard that one month's reward is not counted, and there is also an income of three pennies. And it's Qin Wang's money, isn't that true?" Miscellaneous money!" As soon as the businessman opened his mouth, several people standing beside him took a deep breath.

This is the family of the little rich in Datang.

We must know that for one mu of land, three loads of grain are harvested in a year, and one load of unprocessed grain is only more than 50 Wen, and one mu of land is only 150 Wen.Twenty mu is only three pennies, and this is still the price of old money, so Jin Manqing's monthly income is equal to the annual income of 25 mu of land.

She is only alone, how can this not be considered a rich household.

"The female slaves of Goguryeo in Yaozhou of Tang Dynasty are so rich?" Yuan Gai Suwen couldn't believe his ears.

The businessman said with a smile: "Accordingly, there are tens of thousands of female slave workers in Yaozhou, and no one has come out to make clothes. But now that I think about it, I can understand what kind of place Yaozhou is. Anything that is produced there is worth it." Good things with a lot of money, it’s a waste of manpower to make clothes, and it just makes us more business for these tailors!”

Another person said: "The poorest handyman slave girl in Yaozhou also has a guarantee of [-] Wen a month. If you work harder, you can get [-] Wen a month steadily, and the fine linen autumn dress in the small shop only costs [-] Wen. , and a pair of shoes as well.”

"This store has [-] Wen rainbow brocade, [-] sets of inside and outside, free belt and shoes, there are at least tens of thousands of female workers in Yaozhou with a monthly income of [-] Wen, and the clothes in this shop are also competitive enough!"

"See you at the review meeting!" The businessman cupped his fists, turned and left.

At the gate, a group of Goguryeo women looked at the clothes and smiled happily. From their expressions, it can be seen that they like it and can afford it.

Those who come, the lowest one also has a monthly income, they can afford it.

Women in the Tang Dynasty were not like modern people, they had more clothes.They may wear a good set of clothes for many years, so it is indeed a very cost-effective price to spend two or three months of income on a good set of clothes.

Yuan Gai Su Wen's heart has sunk to the bottom, he knows that his first wife doesn't even have a set of Tang Rainbow Brocade clothes, let alone a concubine.In Datang, there were female slaves in Goguryeo, and tens of thousands of them became the target merchants of rainbow brocade clothing shop merchants. Such a gap made him blush.

"Yunjin, Yunjin!" A businessman yelled wildly and rushed out from the small door on the side where he had just entered.

All the people were attracted by his shout.

The businessman yelled loudly: "The order for Yunjin has been increased, and the jewelry store will participate in the election in three days." After finishing speaking, he ran towards Dongshi like crazy.

Now, everyone couldn't care less about surrounding here, and some merchants brought sufficient manpower and immediately arranged for people to report back.

Some just ran back by themselves, but halfway through the run, they couldn’t move. They left for a while and began to judge what would happen if they weren’t there. It’s not okay to go here, or not to go, just like beating their chests on the street. Make people sympathetic.

But in Yuan Gai Suwen's heart, he felt a kind of shame.

He went back and reported what he knew to the Goguryeo envoy. The Goguryeo envoy didn't say a word, got on the carriage and waved to turn around, avoiding this section of the road.He was thinking about it even more.Even if you walk ten more streets, don't go from here again, and don't go from here again in the future.

Yuan Gai Suwen's face was also dark, and his heart was even colder.

He originally planned to come to Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty to bring back a piece of brocade to his wife, so as to make his beloved wife happy, but now all the female slaves in Goguryeo of the Tang Dynasty are wearing brocade, and he hasn't even seen it with his own eyes. I have seen what kind of brocade brocade looks like, let alone bought it.

Wei Zheng, who was sitting on the guard tower of Tiance Admiral's Mansion, watched the whole scene, and just smiled coldly.

"Little baby, you are worthy of guessing what my King Qin is thinking!"
