"Bukhara is to the west of Yarkand, across the green hills from Yarkand, Kazakh is to the north of Bukhara, to the northwest of Yarkand. They are the descendants of the authentic Mongolians, and they look like our Han people. Especially in Kazakhstan, there are vast grasslands, and horses are their important income." Li Xian tried to make the content brief.
"Congling?" Zhu Youjian knew that it was the Pamirs of later generations, and now, Daming is not in touch with it.
"Yes, Congling. This is probably the highest place in the world except Wusi Zang. The roads are also difficult and difficult." Li Xian really didn't understand why Zhu Youjian was interested in these places. In Daming, everyone's eyes are fixed on the rich places in Jiangnan.
Xiao Er served dishes, interrupting the conversation between the two from time to time, until the table was full of various dishes.
"Dongzhu Li, now I can tell you who I am." Zhu Youzhen knew that he did not reveal his identity. It is impossible for Li Xian to talk endlessly. A person who refuses to say his name still hopes to gain the trust of others
"The guest officer is..." Li Xian's eyes suddenly brightened.
"Da Ming Xin Wang Zhu Youjian." Zhu Youjian said quite neatly.
"Believe in the king?" Li Xian stared at Zhu Youzhen closely, he was trying to figure out what Zhu Youzhen said.
"This is my token, Li Dongzhu can take a look." Zhu Youjian handed his portable token to Li Xian.
Li Xian took a look and found that there were four characters "Da Ming Xin Wang", and the time engraved below was "September 12, Fourth Year of Apocalypse". Looking at the back again, it was a flying dragon. He was in a cold sweat with fright, his legs softened, and he knelt down unconsciously: "The Caomin has seen His Royal Highness Xin Wang."
"Get up, Li Dongzhu." Zhu Youjian gave a hand and pulled up Li Xian who was kneeling on the ground. "Now Dongzhu Li can understand why I don't reveal my identity?"
"His Royal Highness, Caomin deserve to die." Li Xian kept wiping sweat with his cuff.
"Proprietor Li does not need to be like this. It is also fate that you and I met in the horse market.'Xuehuo' is our Yuelao. Haha, now Proprietor Li believes that I will not go to Yeerqiang to sell horses and ruin the owner's business?" Zhu Yu Jian laughed, personally poured a glass of wine for Li Xian, and filled himself with it, "Come, meet is fate, don't be formal."
"Yes, Your Highness." Li Xian drank a glass of wine tremblingly.
"Proprietor Li, you and I met in the horse market, not because of identity; the owner gave horses, and not because of identity. The owner is like this, and he is not like a bold person. In fact, I have something to ask the owner for help." Zhu Youjian tried his best. Close the identity distance with Li Xian.
"His Royal Highness, please give instructions." Li Xian was a polite.
"Does the proprietor have a stronghold in Ye Erqiang? I want to send a few people over." From the moment Li Xian said Ye Erqiang, Zhu Youjian planned to let Zhou Wenqi send someone over. Daming's eyes should not always be fixed. In the country, the surrounding area is the hidden danger for Daming. Moreover, there are already Jinyiwei in the country, but the surrounding area is completely blank.
"It's not stealing your business." Zhu Youzhen laughed. "They pretend to be your subordinates, but they don't do business. I hope they can learn Ye Erqiang's language and learn more about Ye Erqiang's situation."
"His Royal Highness wants..." Li Xian hesitated.
"I have no idea now. Ye Erqiang is Daming's neighbor. We can't help but understand them." Zhu Youzhen doesn't know if there will be any intersection between Da Ming and Ye Erqiang in the future, but he spies on Ye Erqiang's national conditions and will work in investigations. Do it in the front, you can be prepared for it.
"Caomin, but according to His Royal Highness's orders." At this point, Li Xian couldn't refuse.
Zhu Youzhen knows that Li Xian still has concerns, "Leader Li, even if something happens in the future, we will notify your people to evacuate as soon as possible. Besides, my people are also in Ye Erqiang."
"The Caomin knows that Caomin can arrange it at any time." Li Xian regained his energy, and his body also regained its flexibility. Regardless of whether Zhu Youjian's words are credible or not, he has no way to refuse.
"Dongzhu Li, although I am a believer, I can't help you. I'm really sorry." Zhu Youjian is a politician. Apart from abusing public power, he doesn't know where he can give Li Xian some convenience.
"His Royal Highness led the army to pacify Shaanxi, and return to Shaanxi's Langlang for the greatest help to our merchants.
"Hahaha..." Zhu Youjian laughed.
"Hahaha..." Li Xian also laughed.
With this smile, the psychological distance between Li Xian and Zhu Youjian really shortened.
"Your Highness, if you shouldn't ask, your Highness in Xi'an is not for Ye Erqiang's business, right?"
"Of course not," Zhu Youjian did not intend to conceal Li Xian. "I want to buy a shop near here. I will sell soap in Xi'an soon."
"Soap? Caomin has been in business for twenty years and has never heard of what soap is." Li Xian felt that although the identity of the king of faith was revealed, there were still many unrevealed mysteries in him.
"Well, it's used to wash clothes." Zhu Youjian said in a short speech, introducing the function of soap.
This talk took more than half an hour. Wang Mujiu and others had been waiting outside the door for a long time, but when they heard Zhu Youjian talking about Feng Zhengxing, they didn't dare to bother and had to wait outside the door.
"His Royal Highness, there is a jeweler from Nanzhili on Dongguanzhong Street. He is about to check the shops and go back. Caomin will accompany the hall to take a look." The door to the room finally opened, and Li Xian went out of the private room first.
Wang Mujiu fixedly looked at Li Xian.
"Mujiu, don't be nervous, I have already explained my identity to Dongzhu Li." Zhu Youjian followed Li Xian behind him and appeared in front of Wang Mujiu with a smile. "Go, let's go to the jewelry store."
Li Xian's head led the way, and Zhu Youjian and his party followed him.
They stopped at the junction of East Guanzhong Street and West Five Lanes, which were going east-west. This is the jewelry shop Li Xian said.
"Little Er, is your proprietor in?" Li Xian led the way into the shop.
"Yes, here. Li Dong is mainly looking for my proprietor?" Xiao Er bowed to the door of the shop.
"Yes, my friend wants to see your shop, you will let your owner know."
"Yes. Li proprietor, guest officials, wait a moment, the younger one will go and tell the proprietor." Xiao Er turned upstairs and went upstairs.
After a while, there was a "creaking" sound from the stairs, and a short man of about fifty years old appeared on the stairs, "Lord Li, the distinguished guest is here! This friend is..."
"Dongzhu Huang is so comfortable! This is a friend from Jingshi, who wants to see your shop." Li Xian and the Dongzhu Huang are obviously acquaintances.
"The structure of my shop, Li Dongzhu, is very familiar. What is the name of this friend? Please read it. Xiaoer, make tea." Huang Dongzhu arranged things very well in a few words, and he deserves to be an elite in the mall.
Just now Zhu Youjian had a large number of shops from the outside, and now from the inside, it turns out that it is a professional shop with wooden shelves and counters. It can be put into use as long as it is renovated a little bit. "Huang Dongzhu, do you want to sell the house upstairs? The accommodation is upstairs? How many rooms are there?"
"As long as the price is reasonable, of course it is sold. There are one large, two small and three bedrooms upstairs." Because of the friends Li Xian brought, Huang Dongzhu didn't dare to lie.
"Then, Mr. Huang, let's make a price!" Zhu Youjian was very satisfied whether it was the seat or structure of the store.
"Since I'm a friend of Dongzhu Li, I won't say anything, this number." Dongzhu Huang shook his three fingers.
Zhu Youzhen didn't know whether it was three thousand taels or thirty thousand taels. Maybe it was three hundred taels. He set his sights on Li Xian.
"Huang Dongzhu, everyone is acquaintance and familiar with the market. It would be unkind for you to make such a price." Li Xian sternly turned his eyes to the north outside the shop, where West Sixth Alley is located.
Dongzhu Huang was shocked in his heart, but on the surface he didn't change his expression: "For Li Dongzhu's sake, two thousand eight hundred taels, it is to invite Li Dongzhu to have a meal."
"Haha." Li Xian laughed, "Huang Dongzhu, this meal is too rich, right?"
"Two thousand four. Li Dongzhu, should I let my brother eat noodles?" Huang Dongzhu is already bitter, I don't know if he slept well last night.
"Huang Dongzhu, if it was a year ago, you might be able to buy it at this price, but now, you see, since the banditry, Xi'an has been more depressed than before. Even my brother’s horse market is less than 30% of the previous price. I don’t know when the previous prosperity can be restored--if your brother is not in a weak business, would he be willing to return to Nanzhili?" Li Xian is not in a hurry, neither is salty nor indifferent, as if he is having trouble with Huang Dongzhu.
"Dongzhu Li, I won’t eat my noodles anymore. Drink a bowl of noodle soup, okay? Two thousand and two, it can’t be lower." Dongzhu Huang was crying and almost kneeled. Until now, Li Xian hasn’t made any bids. .
"Well, my brother said a fair price, one thousand and eighty. Your brother's noodle soup and noodles are available. In recent years, the big families in Xi'an have taken care of your brother's jewelry, right?" Li Xian is not the owner of Huang. Moved by his performance.
"Dongzhu Li, then we don't have to talk about it. Knowing that my brother is going back to Nanzhili, I can't force my brother to death." Huang Dongzhu put on a posture of giving off the tea.
"Brother Huang, this is good. I will give two hundred taels for my friend, round up, and right to see him off-we have been friends for so many years." Li Xian finally showed a smile on his face.
"See you off? Yeah, your brother is going to take off your brother's trousers and serve as a silver treat--not to mention, who told me to rush back to Nanzhili before the new Yuan Dynasty? Besides, your brother's. Friend is my friend. Anyway, it is cheap and not given to outsiders." Huang Dongzhu shook his head mockingly.
"That's OK. Go to the Yamen tomorrow to go through all the formalities. Don't think my friend is young. He has some people in the Yamen. When the old man leaves Xi'an, if there is anything unresolved, just come to me... this friend ." Li Xian and Zhu Youjian exchanged glances. Seeing that Zhu Youjian had no objection, he made his own opinion.
"It's easy to say." Dongzhu Huang knew that he was eaten to death by Li Xian. Who told others to know his trump card? I just don't know who this young buyer is, who caused Li Xian to work hard for him. Is it really someone from the yamen? He can't take care of these anymore. Tomorrow, he will go through the formalities and get the money. He will leave Xi'an and return to his hometown to enjoy his old age.
Zhu Youjian also saw Li Xian's methods, which can be said to be worth a hundred dollars. It is no wonder that he can deceive the horses of the Western Regions to Daming. However, he should go to see Sun Chuanting after finishing the shop. It has been two days since he came to Xi'an, and the Laba Festival is coming soon.
