Chapter 420 Entering the Qingtang

From the conversation with Zhang Yi, Li Yan knew very well that their purpose this time was not just to sell these goods and exchange them for war horses.

They also want to establish their own trading channels and find partners in Qingtang who can cooperate with them for a long time.

If I perform well this time, then I will definitely get a share of the pie in the future.

And the business that big names like Zhang Yi and others do is not something they can compete with.

Let me put it this way, the profit they had made before was not enough for Zhang Yi and the others to raise so many smart and capable subordinates. Look at the fat war horses, and then look at the war horses. One is not a big or a thick one, and the other is not a well-equipped equipment.

To be honest, even those with such strength, not to mention Li Yan, even those who are well-known in the Hehuang area may not be able to compare with. These people can be regarded as the top group of wealthy businessmen in the Tang Dynasty.

The caravan hung behind the Tubo soldiers and rushed towards Qingtang, and rushed slowly. Zhang Yi and the others were still unable to arrive at Qingtang before dark.

In one afternoon, they rushed almost a hundred miles, but now they have reached the junction of the Tang Dynasty and Tubo countries. Going a little further, they will enter the Qingtang territory.

During the war, although the Tang Dynasty did not have the habit of attacking Tubo, the Tubo people still did not let go of their guards, and there were still heavy troops guarding the border, especially in important commercial areas like Qingtang.

Zhang Yi asked someone to find a very remote leeward hillside and then let everyone start to rest.

Although it was night, they did not dare to make a fire. Everyone just ate dry food and then started to rest.

It was still a bit cold at night in Hehuang. Fortunately, they brought some cold clothes this time so they would not be frozen at night.

After sending a team of people to watch the night, Zhang Yi couldn't help but fall asleep in a deep sleep. He rode his war horse so far during the day. Although his body was already strong now, he still felt very tired.

Without a fire, there wouldn't be any Tubo people who would come to such places in boredom, so they would be fine all night.

Early the next morning, just as dawned, Xu Jingzong urged everyone to start rushing.

Zhang Yi woke up and ate something quickly and followed everyone on the way. To be honest, Zhang Yi was indeed a little uncomfortable with it when he woke up in the morning, but now it is a special period, so he doesn't care about it.

Under the leadership of Li Yan, the group bypassed the Tubo army and quietly walked into Qingtang from a small path.

I have to say that for generations of the Li Yan family ran to Qingtang, and they made a living by trading with the Tubo people, so they were naturally very familiar with these.

If it were Zhang Yi and the others, they would definitely not be able to find such a place. If they wanted to enter Qingtang, they would probably have to bribe the Tubo defenders there. However, according to the current situation, as long as they dare to bring so many things to the Tubo people, they would not wait for their words to kill all the people on their side and take the goods back as their spoils.

Before the sun came out, Li Yan and Zhang Yi and others spent more than an hour to spare for forty or fifty miles and finally entered Qingtang.

The Li Yan family has several elite elites in Qingtang, and they still have a lot of connections here. As soon as everyone arrived in Qingtang, Li Yan immediately took Zhang Yi and others to a friend's home.

A small house with two entrances and two exits is so ordinary that it cannot be found in ordinary houses in Chang'an, but in places like Qingtang, only high-gate and wealthy families can afford it.

Li Yan quietly took Zhang Yi and others to the back door to knock on the door. After a few regular knocks, the door immediately opened with a clang.

The person who opened the door was a Han man who looked like a housekeeper. When he saw Li Yan, he had a little joy in his eyes. When he saw Zhang Yi and others, his eyes were full of alert. If it were not for Li Yan's existence, Zhang Yi believed that he would have closed the door without hesitation.

"What are these?" the butler pointed at Zhang Yi and asked.

Li Yan looked around and said, "Manager Wang, I can trust you. Let us go in and talk first, we are bringing the goods."

When he heard the goods, the man named Manager Wang didn't say anything anymore and turned his body to let Zhang Yi and others in. It was obvious that he also knew what the situation was going on recently.

However, the back door was not big enough, so Zhang Yi had to ask Wang Wu and others to remove salt and other things and move them into the house.

Before entering the house, Zhang Yi made a gesture to Wang Wu. Wang Wu knew it and immediately sent a few young and strong men around to take a walk around.

There are dozens of trucks of goods, only two hundred bags of things, and more than one hundred people can handle them in a quarter of an hour.

While they were carrying the goods, the owner of the house had already come over.

"Brother, why are you here? I heard a few days ago that your goods were snatched away by these Tubo people. Is this true or false?"

The owner of this house is also a Han man, but he is still old, probably in his forties, and he patted Li Yan's shoulders familiarly as soon as he came over.

Zhang Yi can also see from Li Yan's expression that they are very familiar with each other, and they are not the kind of false.

"This matter is a long story, but it was indeed robbed by the Tubo people." Li Yan shook his head, obviously he was still worried about this matter.

"By the way, brother, let me introduce you to you first. These are merchants from Chang'an. This time my mission is to take them to Qingtang."

Li Yan pointed to Zhang Yi and others behind him and began to introduce it. At this time, the young and brave men who moved the goods also moved all the goods into the courtyard, and more than 200 bags of goods filled the Wang family's cellar and warehouse.

The young and strong men who had moved the goods were now standing behind Zhang Yi and others. Even though Wang Zaixu had seen many big scenes, he still felt very imposing.

"This is my eldest brother Wang Zaixu. The ancestors of our two families went to Qingtang together to travel together. Until now, our two families can be regarded as family friendship."

After Li Yan introduced Zhang Yi and others, he introduced Wang Zaixu to Zhang Yi and others. The two sides greeted each other and had known each other.

"Since it's Brother Li's eldest brother, we're welcome. We need your attention in the future."

Just after the introduction, Zhang Yi took the lead in going up to say hello. After all, this is someone else's house, and as a guest, it is worth taking the initiative.

"There is nowhere, Brother Zhang has seen each other. Now in Qingtang, it is not easy to meet Han people, especially those who dare to run here at this time, Wang admires them even more."

Wang Zaixu also bowed to Zhang Yi as he said this.

With such a big battle on Zhang Yi's side, no matter how stupid Wang Zaixu knows that his family background is definitely of a very strong category, so he plans to make friends with Zhang Yi now.
