Chapter 284 Volume 3 Who is shameless?

In fact, many people don't understand what kind of place the Ming Dynasty Royal Court is.

Even Wei Zheng and Xiao Yu, who had been to Riyue Mountain, couldn't explain clearly.

The Imperial Court of the Ming Dynasty seems to have a magical power that makes people who come here not want to leave.

But if you ask them why they don't want to leave, they can't tell you one, two, three, four, five.

This is the Imperial Court of the Ming Dynasty.

…

The junction of Daming Royal Court and Chuihe County.

Now three cities have been built here.

Qiu Boyen's troops were stationed in the easternmost city.

Compared with the cities in the south, the cities in the north are much stronger.

There is no way, the planning here was earlier than that there, and there are more merchants gathered here, so the city is naturally more complete than that there.

The city where Qiu Bowen and the others were stationed was named Beiqiu. The name was chosen by Qiu Bowen. After reporting it to Li Chengqian for approval, the name was decided.

As for whether it has any meaning, Qiu Bowen himself probably knows.

Nowadays, Qiu Bowen serves as the general guarding the town of Beiqiu and also serves as the magistrate of Beiqiu County. He has all the civil and military power in his hands, so it is not an insult to him.

Of course, Qiu Bowen actually just wanted to be a county magistrate, and governing a county was actually a dream he had always had.

"General..." In the county government office, Qiu Bowen was handling official duties. When he saw his subordinates hurried in, he said displeasedly: "Call me the county magistrate, don't call me the old general. When I heard this title, this county thought of the old days again."

Conquests on the battlefield."

"Magistrate Qiu, the caravan sent by King Gaochang has arrived." the visitor said.

He was Qiu Bowen's subordinate and a member of the Qiu clan, so he was naturally loyal to his leader.

When Qiu Bowen heard what he said, he raised his head and said, "Oh, King Gaochang moved very fast. It didn't take a few days after the news was released, and their people arrived? Well, where are they?"

"

"We have already entered the city, and we should be settling down at Changming Restaurant now," his subordinate said.

Qiu Boyen asked: "Have you arrived at the Ministry of Finance?"

"They arrived early this morning." His subordinate said, "I heard that this business is very profitable. Whether it is the Ministry of Revenue or the King of Gaochang, it is a huge profit."

Humph...Qiu Boyen snorted coldly and said: "What do you want to do? Or are you not the only one who wants to use your brain? Don't you know that our people are still making a living on the grassland? Do you want to kill them?

Can’t they make it?”

"The county magistrate has misunderstood." His subordinates immediately said, "How could we do something that affects the safety of the tribe? I heard from the Ministry of Household Affairs that the imperial court allows us people to do business, but we cannot do business.

Do it with King Gaochang, and you are not allowed to do it in Beiqiu City.

It seems that the court and King Gaochang signed some agreement or something, and what kind of trading partners the two parties are, I will not understand.

But apart from these, we can still do business, so the general thought, how about our Qiu family also engage in this business, not to mention how much we make, we can always make up for it."

After hearing what he said, Qiu Boyen fell silent.

What does it mean?

Li Chengqian would definitely not do this for no reason. Since he did it, it must have a deep meaning.

However, he didn't think about what it meant for a while, so he immediately said: "Let's take a look at this matter again. Don't be anxious. Today is different from the past. Our Highness, Prince Ming, is not comparable to Prince Daning."

Yes, don't ruin the hope of the whole family just for a little money.

Nowadays, guarding the border and building border cities are our top priorities.

But since King Gaochang’s caravan is here, you can ask the people in the Ministry of Household Affairs what they want and do as they say.”

I have to say that Qiu Bowen is indeed a bit cautious now.

He couldn't figure out Li Chengqian, so he didn't dare to draw any conclusions easily.

But compared to Murong Shun, he was more optimistic about Li Chengqian.

Let’s just do this for now, there is no better way.

The subordinate nodded, said no more, and immediately left the county office to find someone from the Household Department.

The handover between the Hubu people and Murong Xiaojun's caravan went very smoothly. After all, the communication was completed early in the morning, so there were no setbacks.

But when Murong Xiaojun's people got those exquisite goods, one or two of them were shocked.

This thing can make money, and it can make a lot of money.

Because the customers for these items are all the nobles of Tuyuhun. This has been the case in all dynasties. If you want to make a lot of money, you have to put your hands into the pockets of the rich.

Immediately, Murong Xiaojun's people returned to Chuhe County with the goods.

The people from the Ministry of Revenue also took the money and food back to Riyue Mountain, and everyone needed to go back to pay errands.

That night, when Murong Xiaojun saw the items brought back by the caravan in the royal tent of King Gaochang, he was also amazed.

Especially the dressing mirror, the princess couldn't put it down.

"This item from the royal court of the Ming Dynasty is indeed outstanding. Even if I am a concubine, I have never seen such exquisite items." The princess said while looking around in the dressing mirror.

Murong Xiaojun said with a smile: "Let's not talk about anything else, just in this aspect, the Ming Dynasty Royal Court is indeed much better than us, but it's okay. In this way, we can make a lot of money and food. I believe that this year, Chuhe County can

Get through this winter.”

Successive years of snowstorms have really given them a hard time, and no one can guarantee that this winter will be better than previous years.

"I heard that the Imperial Court of the Ming Dynasty also has a kind of return air stove. After it is lit, the whole tent will feel like summer." The merchant under his command said, "If we had that thing, we would be able to survive another snowstorm this winter.

Get through it.”

When Murong Xiaojun heard that there were such things, he immediately asked: "Then why didn't you buy some this time?"

"The Ming Dynasty said that firstly, the season has not yet come, secondly, the price is relatively expensive, and thirdly, transportation is not convenient." The businessman said, "This time, they also shipped one, saying it was for the prince.

of."

"Bring it in quickly." Murong Xiaojun said eagerly.

If such a thing existed, it would be a great weapon for the winter grassland.

When the businessman heard this, he immediately ordered people to bring in the return air stove.

The stove is square and looks like a table.

The entire stove is wrapped in iron sheets. In the center of the stove are iron rings one after another. In one corner, there is an air outlet.

Murong Xiaojun said: "Quickly demonstrate it to me."

"Your Highness, after using this thing, the accounting room in winter is comparable to midsummer. Is it appropriate to use this thing on this day?" The businessman was a little embarrassed.

Murong Xiaojun said: "Don't be nagging, hurry up, I want to see if it has the effect you mentioned."

If the wind furnace really had the effect he said this time, it would definitely be an artifact-like existence for wintering on the grassland, and he couldn't tolerate it without paying attention to it.

When the businessman heard this, he stopped insisting and immediately started following the instructions taught by Ming officials.

In fact, the most troublesome thing is getting the iron pipe out, and the rest is nothing.

After a while, after the preparations were completed, the businessman called the servants to light the cow dung in the stove.

It is not surprising that cow dung is the most common fuel on the grassland.

After the fire started, Murong Xiaojun was a little disappointed and said: "It's not as evil as you said."

"People in the Ming Dynasty said that this stove will take effect after burning for a while." The businessman was not in a hurry.

While the stove was burning, Murong Xiaojun chatted with the merchant about other things. Basically, they were talking about where to sell the items purchased from the Ming Dynasty and at what price.

Logically speaking, Murong Xiaojun, a prince, should not have to worry about these things. No matter how difficult Tuyuhun has been in recent years, it cannot be difficult for him.

But Murong Xiaojun must also have a heart that cares about the country and the people. In recent years, although Chuihe County has suffered small losses, it is not without losses. He also wants to give a way of life to the hundreds of thousands of herdsmen under his control.

The most important thing is that Murong Shun's lessons learned from the past are there. Does he still dare to watch the herdsmen suffer disaster?

If he really gets to that point, he will most likely become the second Murong Shun.

During this time, not only was he thinking, everyone in Tuyuhun was actually thinking about how Murong Shun lost.

They thought for a long time and couldn't figure it out. Finally, they were surprised to find that no matter how Murong Shun lost, there were only so many people brought by Li Chengqian from the Tang Dynasty. Even if the Tiele tribe came from thousands of miles to join him, it was still not enough compared to Murong Shun.

look.

In the end, they discovered that the reason why Murong Shun lost was because of the popular support.

Well, their conclusion is actually a bit unreasonable, because none of them said that the reason why Murong Shun lost was because he lost to Murong Fuyun.

But no matter what the reason was, Murong Xiaojun also realized that people's hearts are very important.
