Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 344 Salt Merchant Field Seven
"My lord, this big cloak..." At this time, Han Xin had changed from top to bottom, and the clothes on his body were extremely warm.

Therefore, Han Xin wanted to return the cloak to Fusu.

Fusu shook his head and refused, and gave Gao Chong a glance with his eyes.Immediately Gao Chong stepped forward and paid the bill.

The owner of the cloth shop was amazed at the scene in front of him. Han Xin's name was well known in Huaiyin City, so the owner of the cloth shop also knew Han Xin.

If you saw Han Xin in ordinary times, you would have a good attitude if you didn't rush outside with a stick!
It's just that seeing the noble son beside Han Xin, especially after he spoke, made the owner of the cloth shop smile.

This can be said to be the biggest business he has done since he opened the store.

And when he gave money, he was extremely straightforward, which made the cloth shop owner even more happy.Fusu asked Han Xin to take a hot bath here, and in this spare time, he also asked the cloth shop owner to cut the cloth into suitable clothes.

Naturally, the owner of the cloth shop fully agreed to Fusu's request, after all, no one was against money.

I also sighed in my heart that Han Xin had such good luck from somewhere, and was valued by such a noble son.

It's just that the noble young master is a bit unfamiliar, and his accent is not from here. He thinks he is a foreigner, who doesn't know the details of Han Xin, so he was deceived!

The owner of the cloth shop secretly speculated in his heart, but he didn't tell the truth. If he told the truth, would his business be done or not?After finally encountering such a big business, the owner of the cloth shop naturally did not want any accidents to happen.

The owner of the cloth shop breathed a sigh of relief when the money was finally counted.

As for Fusu and Han Xin, they found a big restaurant. The waiters at the restaurant didn't recognize Han Xin's attire at first.When he later recognized him, he was making things difficult for him, but when he saw Fusu beside Han Xin, he immediately gave up!
It was impossible for Fusu and Han Xin to talk about the art of war in front of a large audience, so Fusu asked for a private room, ordered a few high-quality wine and dishes, and the two talked while eating.

Just as he took a bite of the vegetable and put it in his mouth, Fusu chewed a few mouthfuls and spit it out.

But he didn't want to think that there was sand and bitter taste in the dish, so Fusu immediately called the waiter.

In Fusu's mind, even if the salt used in such a large restaurant is not as good as the fine white salt used by the court, at least it is high-quality salt, and it is definitely not this kind of coarse salt.

Seeing that Fusu's face was raw, the clerk suddenly realized, knowing that Fusu didn't know the inside story, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "My lord, to tell you the truth, this kind of salt is considered the best in my shop!"

"Excellent?" Fusu was confused by the assistant's words, and a touch of anger emerged in his heart, and he was determined to get the truth out of this matter.

The waiter explained: "My lord, if you want to add high-quality fine salt to your dishes, you have to add another gold."

Fusu immediately took out two pieces of gold from his pocket and slapped them on the table, saying: "Man, if you can explain the matter to us clearly, this gold is for vegetables, and the other one will be yours."

Seeing the gold that Fusu took out, the clerk's expression changed immediately, and then he said with a smile: "My lord wants to know anything, just ask, the young one will definitely know everything and talk about everything."

Fusu asked directly: "Okay, let me ask you, why do you need to add another gold for the fine salt?"

The clerk laughed and said: "My lord, I don't know. Although we are close to the big boy, there shouldn't be a shortage of salt, but all the salt is in the hands of those nobles, and the price of salt is extremely high. Only five hundred copper coins can buy a bucket of table salt. "

"As for the high-quality fine salt that you want to eat, ordinary people can't buy it. If our shopkeeper has some connections in the government office, this fine salt would not be available either."

"Even so, my shopkeeper has to spend a lot of money to buy this high-quality fine salt. Therefore, if you want to eat it, you need to pay more."

Fusu frowned slightly, and asked again: "So, most of the people in Huaiyin City can't afford salt?"

The clerk also sighed, and exclaimed: "It's not just Huaiyin City, where is there no shortage of salt in this whole area?"

"I don't know where all the salt went!"

This restaurant is also very famous, so many merchants from the north and the south rest here, and the news is quite handy here. As a staff member of the restaurant, I know a lot of the truth.

Fusu recalled what Shifu said in his mind. When Shifu said that day, Fusu was still skeptical, after all, he had never seen it with his own eyes.

During Shi Fu's narration, it is very likely that there were exaggerated words, but now that I can see it with my own eyes, Shi Fu has already said very lightly about such a situation!
Fusu collected his thoughts, and then asked: "Who sells this salt in Huaiyin City?"

The guy who got the money had nothing to hide, and said: "There were originally five salt sellers in this city, but after the Qin army entered the city, four of them closed down one after another, and only one remained. Prices have skyrocketed since then.”

"As for the remaining one, the owner's name is Tian Qi, and people call him Tian Qiye..."

When the name of this person was mentioned, Han Xin clenched his hands involuntarily, his body trembling a little, as if he remembered something.

"This Tian Qiye, over the years, the salt seller has earned a lot of money, and he is a first-class wealthy businessman in Huaiyin City."

Fu Su chuckled, and said: "This Tian Qi is so arrogant, presumably there is someone behind it?"

The guy shook his head and said: "I don't know about that, but it is rumored that behind Tian Qi are some old royal families of Qi."

"Oh?" Seeing Fusu's interested expression, the assistant hastily denied it, saying: "My lord, this is just a wild guess made by us in private, you must not pay attention to it, lord."

Fusu rubbed a piece of gold cake in his hand, but didn't speak, when the clerk saw that piece of gold cake, his eyes immediately showed struggle.

The man whispered: "Young master, let me tell you, please don't pass it on outside."

"Back when the Qi State was destroyed, Qi Wang Tianjian left the city and surrendered, and was later exiled to the common land. But even though the Qi State was destroyed, there are still many royal families here."

"Before this, these salt industries were in the hands of these royal families, but we don't know what happened afterwards."

"We're just making wild guesses in private..."

Fusu threw the gold cake in his hand to the buddy, and said: "Don't worry, buddy, I'm here today to listen to a story, it has nothing to do with you. This gold is considered as a reward for you, give me some more Good food and wine."

Fusu thought for a while, and kept this matter to himself.Looking at Han Xin, he found that Han Xin was thinking about something in a daze.

When he came back to his senses, Han Xin looked at Fusu, stood up immediately, cupped his hands and said, "Han Xin has something to ask, and I ask you to agree."

"What's the matter?"

"Han Xin wants to ask the young master to borrow some money to redeem a confidant." At this time, Han Xin stared at Fusu with a burning gaze, his eyes full of tension.

Fu Su laughed, this was not a difficult task for him, but just as he was about to agree, he heard someone calling Han Xin's name outside the window.

Hearing the shout, Han Xin hurried to the window, saw two familiar figures, and went downstairs immediately, followed by Fu Su, wanting to know what happened.

"Aunt Yun, Wen Xing, what happened?" Seeing the anxious expressions on their faces, Han Xin hurriedly asked.

Aunt Yun and Wen Xing barely recognized Han Xin at first, but when they did, Wen Xing hurriedly said, "It's Xiang Ji! Today Tian Qiye came to Tianxiang Tower and asked Xiang Ji to accompany him by name, and he was going to spend three hundred Jin, let Xiangji be his concubine."

Han Xin's face was red, and anger immediately surfaced, and he wanted to go straight to Tianxiang Tower, but was stopped by Aunt Yun, who said: "Xiang Ji said, no matter what happens, you must be patient and never Can be angry."

"Leave a useful body and show off your ambitions. You must not disappoint Xiangji's expectations!"

"You can't save her now, you'd better bear with it!"

Han Xin pushed the two of them away, and just wanted to explain something, but he knew that he couldn't explain in a few words, so he left in a hurry.Therefore, there are not many people who go straight to Tianxiang Tower.

Fusu scratched his head, it seems that this Tian Qi has a bad luck today!
Originally, even if there was no such incident, Fusu planned to find a good time to visit this Tian Qiye, but now it is too coincidental!

Thinking of this, Fusu immediately followed with big strides, walked briskly for a long time, and finally came to the front of Tianxiang Tower.

When Fusu arrived, he happened to see Han Xin surrounded by three or five strong men. A middle-aged lady who still had a charm saw Han Xin and sneered, "Han Xin, the clothes you are wearing today are as old as It's pretty good!"

"It's just that I won't let you step into Tianxiang Tower today. Tian Qiye promised to give me three hundred gold. If you go in, it will definitely disturb Tian Qiye's good deeds. What will I do in Tianxiang Tower in the future? Business?"

Seeing this, Han Xin became even more irritable. In the panic, he seemed a little at a loss.

Fusu motioned to Gao Chong who was beside him, and Gao Chong immediately understood, and several guards immediately stepped forward to rescue Han Xin.

With just three strikes, five divisions and two divisions, several strong men who besieged Han Xin were knocked to the ground.

"Who are you?" The procuress of Tianxiang Tower is also very experienced, knowing that these people in front of him are not simple people.

It's just that these people suddenly jumped out to rescue Han Xin at this time, which really confuses her. In her memory, Han Xin is just a poor boy who can't do anything and can't even take care of himself. How can he make friends with these people.

"Tian Qi, get out of here quickly!" Gao Chong yelled at the top of his voice, regardless of the old bustard's face, after dealing with the people in front of him.

"Tian Qi, get out of here!" Several soldiers beside Gao Chong also shouted loudly along with Gao Chong.

At this time, in front of Tianxiang Tower, a large number of people had surrounded them, and they began to point and point when they heard the shouts of Gao Chong and others.

Who doesn't know Tian Qi's name in Huaiyin City?But there is such a group of people who dare to pull Tian Qi's face off in front of everyone, then throw it on the ground, and even step on it a few times.

Tian Qi in the Tianxiang Building looked at the beauty in front of him, and was about to make a move, when he heard the shouts from outside, and opened the window to look at it, but saw a few people standing there unscrupulously, and the words uttered by those people were even worse. The seven orifices that made him angry smoked.

It has been a long time in Huaiyin City, no one dares to talk to him like that!
"What a disappointment!" Looking at the tears hanging from the corners of Xiang Ji's eyes, Tian Qi felt even more unhappy.

Going out immediately, for him, it is more important to recover the damaged face at this time. As for Xiang Ji, Tian Qi thinks that the future will be long, so he is not in a hurry at this time.

The old bustard looked at the people in front of him yelling these words unscrupulously. He didn't know whether these people were bluffing or really confident.

The old bustard reminded: "Guys, from the looks of you, you seem to be foreigners and don't understand the rules of our place..."

Fusu interrupted the old bustard's words directly, and said with a sneer, "What rules?"

"Is this the rule?" Fusu glanced, and immediately a soldier took out a bag and put it on the ground, and then spread the bag on the ground.

The eyes full of gold made everyone short of breath, and they could hardly hold on to themselves. For them, it was rare for them to see so much gold in their lifetime.

"Outsider, why did you offend Tian Qiye in Huaiyin City?" The bustard looked at Han Xin and said, "Are you worth it for such a worthless?"

The old bustard had a delicate mind, and just now, from the eyes of Fusu and the others, he could already see that Fusu and the others came out for Han Xin.

"Is he a wimp, it's up to you to judge?" Gao Chong walked up to the old bustard, and slapped his big palm.

Gao Chong is also a sensible person. On the way here, Gao Chong also eavesdropped on the art of war between Fusu and Han Xin, but after listening for a while, Gao Chong realized that there was too much knowledge involved. !
For him, the content of Fusu's conversation with Han Xin is like a heavenly book!I also know in my heart that Han Xin is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface.

The young master is also very good at judging people, he has never looked past him!
At this time, Gao Chong couldn't bear to hear someone cursing Han Xin as a wimp.

Immediately, the old bustard screamed and lay on the ground, covering her cheeks with blood oozing from the corner of her mouth.

Gao Chong shook his palm, spat and said, "You're so thick-skinned!"

Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone was completely stunned, not understanding why the group of people in front of them were so arrogant and domineering.

Tian Qi came out from the inside, saw the scene in front of him, his face was completely gloomy, and he said slowly: "I don't know who these people are, how many places did Tian Qi offend?"

Fusu stood aside and didn't speak. In such an occasion, it is obvious that someone like Gao Chong who has traveled the rivers and lakes is more suitable to deal with. Gao Chong himself belongs to the type of extremely hot-tempered, even a bit reckless.

Gao Chong pointed to Han Xin, and said, "You didn't offend us, but that Xiang Ji upstairs is his close friend, and today he came here to redeem her."
