Chapter 108 Han and Qiang Exchange
The junction of Beidi County, Xinping County, and Dongqiang Tribes.
The setting sun is like blood, and the wind and sand fill the sky. Such damn weather always appears here in the deserted sand city from time to time.
"Horrrrrrrr~~"
The heavy war horse snorted leisurely, and a ghostly rider appeared on the rolling mountain ridge. The knight was dressed in a Han costume, with a sword on his waist, a spear on his horse, and a long bow slung over his shoulder. A feathered arrow poked out from behind his shoulder and pierced straight into the sky.
If Xiao Tian, who was engaged in scouting, was present, he would be able to tell at a glance that this person is also an excellent scout.
"Appreciate~"
The knight stopped his horse, and stood on the mountain beam like a wolf, staring down the mountain with sharp eyes.Not far from the foot of the mountain, there is a bustling market.The Qiang people peddled furs, livestock, authentic medicinal materials, and exotic jewelry here, while the Han merchants traded things such as silk, salt and iron, and tea from the Central Plains.
This trading office was the exchange that Meng Da had set up with funds from Fufeng County when Ma Chao entered the grassland.But later, because Fufeng County experienced the turmoil of Li Kancheng and Yin, Ma Chao hurriedly transferred Meng Da back to Fufeng to take charge of government affairs, so the construction of this exchange was put on hold.
It never occurred to me that in the days when Meng Da was away, the Qiang people of the Eastern Qiang, the people of Xinping County, and the Liu family of Beidi County would take the initiative to complete the remaining projects, and open up a mutual market here to trade with each other. Here, the initiative slowly sprouted, and the border market town unexpectedly prospered rapidly.
At the market, a Qiang man looked left and right, took off the tiger skin as if nothing had happened, waved it three times in the air, and shouted loudly: "Tiger skin, the best tiger skin, buy it early~~"
The Han people saw that the tiger skin was really good, and after a while they gathered together in front of the Qiang people.But when they saw that the Qiang people did not have a fixed booth, they all shook their heads and left.
The Qiang people were very puzzled. They thought that the tiger skins they had laboriously obtained could be sold for a good price, so they would buy some new things from the Han people here for their mother-in-law and son. Unexpectedly, those Han people actually saw a lot of people and sold them. There are few people.This made the man puzzled, and while there were no buyers around, he quickly found a Qiang man who had a booth and asked about it.
It turned out that this place has been in operation for more than a month. At first, the Han people were short of money and cheated, so the Qiang people almost led their troops to sweep up the exchange.Later, the Qiang people also learned to pass off the bad as the good and the false as the real, which made the county soldiers of Beidi and Xinping counties almost take over this old nest again.
Helpless, both sides were afraid of the power of the Ma family in Fufeng County. Finally, Ma Chao, the eldest son of the Ma family, gave an idea to establish a chamber of commerce composed of Han and Qiang people to adjudicate trade disputes that occurred in the exchange. .If a small matter is directly judged, if a major matter rises to the point where someone dares to deliberately damage the good and normal trade of the exchange, they will have to accept the collective crusade of Xinping County, Beidi County, and the Dongqiang tribe. Wan Xiliang's iron cavalry is on standby and will help the chamber of commerce to suppress illegal traders at any time.
This Xiliang, who has the ability to provoke the alliance of the three counties and two races?Therefore, those reputable vendors gradually set up fixed stalls here in the name of their masters: for example, the white horse stall of the leader of Baima Qiang Zhongjian, the Tsingyi stall of Qingyi Qiang Rigu Deji, and the north. Liu's stall, Fu's stall and so on in Dijun.
And for this kind of Qiang people who only come to buy and sell occasionally, they can go directly to the chamber of commerce to sell them. If they think the price is unfair, they can also go directly to the stalls they need to sell them. Those stalls are not only selling items, but also responsible for purchasing.And someone like him who peddles on his own has no credibility at first glance, so people naturally don't want to buy from him.
The Qiang man suddenly realized, and immediately went to the chamber of commerce.The good news is that the price given by the Chamber of Commerce was also suitable, and the Qiang people were too lazy to run away, so they sold it directly to the Chamber of Commerce.Later, he also learned to be smart, and went directly to those stalls with famous names, bought some Han clothing, food, and children's wooden horses and wooden swords, and happily carried them away.
On the mountain ridge, the Hanfu knight saw all the actions of the Qiang people, his eyes turned cold for a moment, he turned his horse away, and quickly hid behind the mountain ridge.
Half an hour later, a knight in brightly armored Hanfu appeared on the ridge again like a ghost, and the scout beside him whispered: "General, this exchange has been in business for a long time, and its assets are very rich. Pens can not only supplement our grain and grass, but also make a lot of money.”
Poor scout, he can only see from the scale of the exchange and the behavior of the Qiang people that the exchange is very prosperous, but he can't figure out why the exchange can operate so smoothly.
And the general in bright armor didn't seem to be a guy who was good at thinking. Hearing the scout's report, he raised the sharp sword in his hand impressively, and swung it forward heavily.Afterwards, a group of cavalry appeared like shadows behind the general, all holding long spears, and the sharp blades of the spears cast a dazzling cold light against the slanting sun.
"Number woo woo~~"
On the watchtower outside the bazaar, the sharp-eyed garrison immediately spotted the cavalry on the mountain ridge, and immediately blew the horn as a warning, and the deep and loud horn rang through the sky.
"Hey~~"
A feathered arrow shot through the air, icy piercing the throat of the police officer.
"Uh~~"
The officers and soldiers uttered half a scream, fell from the watchtower, and the low and desolate horn sound stopped abruptly.
"The thieves are coming~~The thieves are coming~~" The sharp-eyed vendor shouted: "Damn, if I let me know which tribe cut off my money, I will let the leader kill these bastards!"
And a clerk in the Liu's booth next to him was also very angry: "You Qiang people are arrogant and unreasonable, and you don't respect credibility. You are not satisfied with how much food this exchange has made you!"
The Qiang man fell into a slump, but after a while he jumped into a rage and shouted: "Fuck your mother, open your eyes and see, that is our Qiang army? It is you treacherous Han people who made a poisonous plan!"
The guy stretched out his eyes, and sure enough, he saw that the bandit soldiers were all in Han costumes, and he was speechless immediately.He whispered in his mouth: "Who blind guys dare to provoke Mao Xiliang Ma's family?"
At this time, the shopkeeper of the stall was in a hurry, and he had to slap the guy: "It doesn't matter if it is a Han or a Qiang, if he dares to rob the trading office this time, he will not live long! You are not happy!" Come on, hurry up and inform the Sheriff?!"
After the Qiang man heard this, he was also stunned, and he didn't want the goods. He immediately led his horse and galloped towards the north: "Damn it! I won't let the leader destroy you bastards. I will be a Han Chinese from now on!"
It wasn't until this time that the residents and merchants in the center of the market finally came to their senses, who was the first to shout.In an instant, the whole bazaar exploded. Panicked people rushed for their lives and ran wildly. The vendors were overturned, the tables of teahouses and wine tables were overturned, and the supplies and goods were scattered. The whole bazaar was in a mess~~
