Chapter 161 After processing, set off for Li Mansion
After finishing the matter, they rested here for a while, and the housekeeper and his team rushed over.
This time they bought more than 20 horses in total. After paying the money, they signed and deposited the money.
Zhao Mu said that there were so many rules for buying things in Datang. Why didn’t he remember that there were such rules before?
If you are buying something big and need such a process, you can understand it.
It's just an ordinary horse, why does it need so much trouble?
"Mr. Zhao, you don't know something. In fact, this only appeared half a year ago.
Long ago, buying horses didn't need to be so troublesome.
It's because there was a businessman in Chang'an who didn't follow martial ethics.
I took the money from others and sold the horse. The next day I reported it to the official and said the horse was lost.
Under the guidance of the government, his horse was found according to its appearance.
At that time, the government came over and the person who bought the horse also looked confused.
It wasn't until he heard what the official said that the man understood that the businessman was planning to cause trouble.
He had already paid the money and paid off all the goods he owed, but he didn't expect that he would report it to the authorities and claim that he had stolen something.
The lawsuit started, and as expected, the horse seller won and the horse buyer lost.
Because they bought the horse without any evidence to prove that they paid for it, nor did they have any evidence that they had ever bought the horse.
In the end, the man was not only punished, but the horse he bought with money was also returned.
This person used this method to blackmail several times, and everyone who bought it could only swallow this sigh of relief.
Until one day he blackmailed a particularly low-key big shot.
The big man was very angry and took strong measures to arrest the businessman and the businessmen who were involved in the scheme.
After an interrogation, I learned about their methods of trapping people.
Later, they found the money given by the big man in their home.
The silver had the mark of their royal palace, and before they had time to deal with it, they were all found.
The Lord reported this to the court, and His Majesty was so angry that he directly killed those businessmen as punishment.
After that, everyone comes to the horse market to buy horses, and both parties like to sign and pledge their names to avoid falling out and not recognizing each other after the purchase!"
"I really didn't expect that blackmail has been around since ancient times. These people can be said to be worms in the business world, so just deal with them!"
"Yue'er, besides buying horses, what about other things?
For example, what about buying grain, cloth and other commodities?"
"Mr. Zhao, that's not the case!"
"Hahaha, I was shocked."
"Xiaoyue, I was also shocked. I was thinking that even if I just wanted to buy a few candied haws, would I have to go to such trouble?"
After the purchases were completed at the horse market, two guards were arranged to take the horses back to Zhuangzi.
The remaining people accompanied the young master to have a good tour of Chang'an City!
"Master, it's already noon, let's go eat first."
The group of people left here and came to a restaurant, ordered some of the restaurant’s special dishes, and started eating!
After lunch, the housekeeper and others waited quietly in the restaurant, while Zhao Mu took Linglong and Li Yue and started wandering around Chang'an City!
I hold the candied haws in my left hand, and other delicious things in my right hand, with a big bag hanging in the middle.
"Xiaoyue, don't you want to eat?"
"Sister Linglong, you better eat it."
After all, she is also a dignified princess. Although she has often been with them for such a long time, walking on the street and acting like this is still a bit unaccustomed to her!
Oh, that's a pity. The young master doesn't eat it, and you don't eat it either. I can only enjoy such delicious candied haws.
The three of them walked around for more than an hour, and Linglong also ate for more than an hour. Zhao Mu was particularly curious, what is her belly made of? Why is she so hungry?
"Master, I really can't eat anymore!"
After walking around for a long time, we returned to the restaurant.
"Let's go to Lao Li's place. Xiao Yue, you will lead the way."
I go, here?
Li Yue felt very embarrassed. She just sent someone to Chang'an City to tell her father that Mr. Zhao was coming.
But now, my father's people have not shown up. Is it possible that my father is not prepared?
Just when I was wondering, several people suddenly walked over and stood in front of them and saluted.
The leader was the one who went back yesterday to report the news!
"I have met Mr. Zhao, ladies, Mr. Zhao, yesterday my lady arranged for me to go back to Chang'an City and tell the news to my shopkeeper.
My shopkeeper has been waiting at my house for a long time."
"As soon as we entered Chang'an City, I knew there were several people following us. Are they your people?"
hiss.
The guards around Zhao Mu entered Chang'an City with shocked faces. They did not find anything strange. As expected, the young master is still the young master. It is so terrifying, so terrifying!
"To be honest with Mr. Zhao, my shopkeeper has arranged for me to wait at the back of Chang'an City, waiting for Mr. Zhao's arrival.
My shopkeeper knows that Mr. Zhao and others are coming to Chang'an City for business.
So I’m not allowed to disturb you rashly, I’m just asked to follow you quietly, and if anything happens, let me come and handle it!”
"He, Lao Li, is really interested."
After the man finished speaking, he took a deep breath in his heart.
Fortunately, I adapt to circumstances, made up a random reason, and handled the matter.
It's just something that he didn't even think of. They are very secretive. How did Mr. Zhao know about it as soon as he entered Chang'an City?
After thinking about it, I realized that Mr. Zhao was actually called an expert. He must have his own methods, so he didn't dwell too much on it.
