Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 231
[Chapter 228 There are too many goods in Dongcang City…]
Dongcang City, the meeting hall.
at noon.
“Qin Chengshou, that’s not what you said. I heard rumors that Dongcang City bought these barbarian goods by name, and it was also to support you, so it gathered enough goods to pull the caravan from thousands of miles away.” The old man wearing a small hat said, “Now that our people and goods have arrived, but you say no more, isn’t it a waste of our trip?”
“Yes! If so, we won’t come to Dongcang City in the future.” Another middle-aged man with a big mole at the corner of his mouth also said.
Several other people nodded.
Qin Dangguo frowned tightly as he looked at the people in front of him.
These people are not the single-gang dealers like Lao Hu before, but the so-called “sit on the ground”. To put it bluntly, these “sit on the ground tigers” are second-hand dealers. They buy those barbarian items that cannot be seen from various channels, and send them to Daxuan for resale.
You may not be able to get any high-quality goods, but the advantage lies in the stable supply.
The old man in the cap was called Ma Xingxian, and he was the head of the Ma family in Lanzhou. The Ma family is not a wealthy family, the pillar of the family is just a great Confucianist with three qualities. But it is said that the Ma family had a good relationship with several barbarian bandits on the barbaric plain, so they could often get enough barbarian items.
Everyone else has a similar background, but the stall is not as big as Ma’s.
Qin Dangguo took a sip from his teacup, thinking about countermeasures.
It was true that he did not think carefully before and released the news of the acquisition. According to Qin Dangguo’s knowledge, that is, several small caravans nearby would take the risk of visiting Dongcang City. But who would have thought that there was Chen Luo’s gold-lettered signboard, and the news spread along the “Da Xuan Min Bao”.
As a result, a large cart of half-blood grass that used to be traded in bundles suddenly appeared, and Chen Luo was emptied in an instant. Now that other caravans delivered the goods to the door, he said that he had no money and would not accept… To put it bluntly, Dongcang City has no strength, entertaining people, which damages the reputation of Lord Hou for nothing; if it gets bigger, it means breaking its promise.
Moreover, if Dongcang City develops in the future, the support of these people will still be indispensable. After all, their supply of goods is stable.
But right now, there is indeed no money…
Qin Dangguo has some headaches. Even though he has countless strategies to govern the country and stabilize the country in his mind, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. What should I do if someone puts the goods they named at the door and asks for money?
Goods are okay!
Apart from Chen Luo, Dongcang City doesn’t have any available replacement resources!
Otherwise, let the city lord write a few manuscripts for them?
No, no, no, what is the difference between exchanging manuscripts for property and selling calligraphy and paintings on the street?
If it gets out, do you want to lose face in Dongcang City? Do you want the majesty of Lord Hou? Master Bamboo Sage, do you want Shengwei?
Ma Xingxian saw that Qin Dangguo was silent all the time, although his face was extremely anxious, his heart was extremely happy.
Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly this time.
That’s right, he came here for Chen Luo. When he heard that Dongcang City needed to purchase barbarian items, he immediately summoned his friends to lead the caravan to Dongcang City.
Originally, I thought that this time I could only get acquainted with each other, but I didn’t expect that it was the right time.
Perhaps, my own idea can succeed once!
Cough…” Ma Xingxian coughed dryly twice.
“Qin Chengshou, this old man has a suggestion! ” Ma Xingxian said.
Qin Dangguo’s eyelids twitched, did you want to see him?
“In this way, since these goods are requested by name, they must also be urgently needed by Dongcang City. Since I have brought all the goods, I will stay in Dongcang City and will not bring them back.” Ma Xingxian said with a faint smile, “However, Marquis Wu needs to agree to one condition.”
Qin Dangguo put down his teacup, “Master Hou’s manuscripts are extremely precious, please don’t…”
“No, no, no…” Ma Xingxian interrupted Qin Dangguo, “I don’t want to ask for anything. The manuscript of Lord Hou.”
Qin Dangguo frowned slightly: “Then what is your suggestion?”
Ma Xingxian laughed dryly: “In this way, all the things brought by my Ma family this time will be donated to Marquis Wu for free.”
“Other friends’ My Ma family also bought the goods and donated them to Marquis Wu.” “Take it as Shuxiu
, who is a teacher!”
Qin Dangguo was stunned: “A teacher? Shuxiu?”
Ma Xingxian said with a smile: “Isn’t my Ma family He is from a scholarly family, and the old elder brother in the family has entered the realm of Confucianism.”
“If Marquis Wu is willing to accept a direct descendant of my Ma family as a disciple, then my Ma family will fully support Marquis Wu’s reconstruction of Dongcang City.” Great cause!” To
have a relationship with Chen Luo is to have a relationship with Bamboo Sage. Besides, Chen Luo has no disciples yet, if he worships under him at this time, no matter what his name is, in the eyes of others, he will be the great disciple of Kaishan.
This deal is sure to make a profit!
It’s not that other aristocratic families can’t see this relationship, but that when Chen Luo was in Zhongjing, those rich families who were qualified to speak couldn’t save face, and always wanted to wait for Chen Luo to drive another three thousand miles before speaking.
That is to say, now that Chen Luo has just arrived in Dongcang City, his foothold is unstable, and his Ma family started as a merchant, and he doesn’t care about face the most, so they seized this opportunity.
Thinking of this, Ma Xingxian’s eyes lit up: “Not only this time, but every year in the future, my Ma family will be able to send a batch of barbarian goods to Dongcang City.”
“Master Qin, how about asking Marquis Wu for his opinion?”
…
The space of the tomb of the living dead in the backyard fluctuated, and Chen Luo jumped out of it.
It was a risk, and finally found the entrance at the last minute of the transformation effect.
Chen Luo stretched his waist. To be honest, he was still comfortable under the law of heaven. Although Mantian’s part didn’t affect him, he always felt uncomfortable.
Chen Luo had no intention of agreeing to Wuliangbucha’s invitation at all, and even planned to kill him.
Although it is very exciting to unite the barbarians to massacre the barbarians, Wuliang Bucha will definitely investigate his own details after returning to Tuogu City.
The military system of the barbarians is not as rigorous as Daxuan, but it is still possible to investigate which force expropriates the grain and fodder of the tribes in a certain area. In this way, Wuliangbu will know that he is not a grain collector at all after checking.
Well, take a break from the limelight.
Just as he was thinking, Chen Luo heard a sound of arguing in the main hall.
…
“Master Qin, why don’t you ask Marquis Wu for his opinion?” As soon as Ma Xingxian finished speaking, Chen Luo’s voice came from the backyard— ”
No way!”
Walking into the political affairs hall from the back court, everyone stood up and saluted one after another.
“I’ve seen Marquis Wu!” “I ’ve seen Lord Marquis!”
“I ’ve seen Lord City Lord!” Chen Luo waved his hand and told everyone to sit down. He sat on the main seat and looked at Ma Xingxian: “Old man, do you want to sit down?” Shall I accept your son as a disciple?” Ma Xingxian hurriedly stood up and saluted: “Old Ma Xingxian, dare to think about it, I don’t know if Ma’s son has such a blessing?” Chen Luo smiled faintly: “This Marquis is still young, so he didn’t accept disciples plan!” Ma Xingxian wanted to say something more, but Chen Luo raised his hand to interrupt Ma Xingxian: “Let’s talk about things one by one, let’s talk about the goods first.”
Chen Luo looked at Qin Dangguo: “City Guard, do they have a manifest?”
Qin Dangguo nodded quickly, and handed over a piece of paper, which recorded the goods and quantities brought by the Ma family and others this time. Luo took the bill of lading and looked it over.
Ma Xingxian quickly explained: “Master Hou, the goods we brought this time are all the items we need according to the name and need in the news handed down by Qin Chengshou. Now that it’s winter, apart from us, it may be difficult to have such a source of goods. ”
Chen Luo nodded, and put down the order: “I really want these things, but it’s a pity that we can’t get them now.”
“But because of the silver issue? As long as Lord Hou…”
Chen Luo waved his hand: “It’s not the silver The problem is that you guys came late…We have too many of these things in Dongcang City.”
“There is no need to buy any more.”
When Chen Luo said this, everyone was stunned, even Qin Dangguo was surprised Looking at Chen Luo intently.
Ma Xingxian frowned slightly: “Master Hou was joking… As far as I know, Hu Leshan seems to be the only one who has brought a car and a half of blood grass at present, right?
” Let’s do what we can. Let’s take the goods back and say goodbye!” Ma Xingxian cupped his hands, and the others got up to salute, planning to leave with Ma Xingxian.
Qin Danguo looked anxiously at Chen Luo, and refused so bluntly, fearing that it would be difficult for Dongcang City to do business in the future.
“Wait a minute, everyone.” Chen Luo said.
“I, Chen Luo, am not the kind of person who perfunctorily amuses others. Since you don’t believe me, let me show you, do I have these goods in Dongcang City?”
Chen Luo said, walking directly to the meeting hall, Ma Xingxian also asked in doubt. Follow behind Chen Luo.
Chen Luo took out the storage order and patted it twice. Immediately, the square in front of the meeting hall was filled with all kinds of supplies, and a unique aura of barbarian spiritual materials rushed over.
“This…is this wild blood grass? My God, this is a wild blood grass that was pulled out within three days, and it is several times better than the one we brought.”
“Blood shadow fruit? Lord Hou, what are you doing?” Got such a large amount of Blood Shadow Fruit? Can you sell me two hundred pieces, no, one hundred pieces, I will buy it at a high price!”
“Luofenghua! It is actually Luofenghua! This is the main material of Luofeng Pill. Specific tribes can only be planted, and I haven’t received a hundred flowers for a year, and there are… not ten thousand flowers here!”
“Master Ma, come and see, is this the meat and bones of the hump beast? My holy man, this hump beast meat, even the elite of the barbarian army, can only eat once every seven days. Lord Hou, what are you… I’m talking too much. Master Hou, how about selling me a hundred catties? I’ll take what I brought this time All goods are exchanged!”
Looking at the densely packed barbarian spiritual materials in the square in front of the hall, only two people were dumbfounded and remained motionless.
One is Master Qin. He doesn’t know where his city lord got so many barbarian spiritual materials. There are so many, why do you want me to buy them?
I am a talented prime minister, and I bargain with these merchants every day, I am not clean anymore!
angry!
The other one was Ma Xingxian. Based on his experience, the moment these spiritual materials appeared, he knew that these were barbarian spiritual materials with excellent appearance.
Often only military tributes to the Khan can have such a appearance.
Could it be that Lord Hou robbed the barbarian grain transport team?
What a joke!
Ma Xingxian swallowed, compared with the barbarian spiritual materials all over the place, the goods they brought were nothing worth mentioning.
I really am still delusional.
After all, the Ma family’s vision is too low, and they don’t even know what a saint’s background is.
Ma Xingxian sighed, and bowed deeply to Chen Luo: “It’s the Ma family’s recklessness, trying to use a small profit in vain to gain a fortune.
This old man admits his mistake like Lord Hou.” “The Ma family’s goods, the right to make an apology!”
Ma Xingxian sighed, stood up, and was about to go out, but was stopped by Chen Luo again.
“Mr. Ma, wait a minute!”
“There will be a martial arts academy in Dongcang City, and the Marquis himself will be the head of the mountain!”
“If there are disciples from the Ma family who are willing to practice martial arts, you can come and try.”
“The students of the martial arts academy are all I’m a student of the Marquis.”
Ma Xingxian was taken aback, looked at Chen Luo, and after a while, bowed again: “The Martial Academy has needs, and the Ma family will do their best!”
Chen Luo smiled lightly.
Leader get!
I fell asleep from 8:00 pm yesterday to 10:00 am this morning.
