There was a clicking sound, and a carriage also stopped in the carriage yard of Guanyi. Ye An was a little strange. According to this time, there would be no carriage coming, but what surprised him even more was the sound coming from outside the carriage.
sound.
"Honorable master, you have had a hard time on your journey. Please go to the post to rest as soon as possible and leave this place to the humble Bayi!"
"You are tired too. Go to bed early. You have to rush to Tokyo City every morning... Remember, don't be too anxious to find that hateful boy after entering the city. He bought so many sweet radishes for us and then went back to Tokyo.
I haven’t bought it either, so it seems that he probably grew it himself, but I don’t know how he brewed the stone honey, otherwise we will definitely be able to explain it to the party members!”
"Master, do you want to sell these kapok to him? Maybe he can make huge wealth from it! Then we will suffer another loss..."
"Of course I have to sell it!" the woman's voice became louder, and she even gritted her teeth and said: "Not only do we have to sell it to him, but we also have to sell it to him at a high price! A high price! The sweet radish thing has made us a joke in the East Market.
This time we have to make him spit out the money with interest!"
Ye An saw Roxana's pretty face that flickered in and out under the lantern and was extremely "ferocious". He couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. When had he offended someone so miserably? He didn't do anything extraordinary!
Oh! By the way, the fact that she was "cheated" by a Gaochang businessman has spread in Tokyo. It was Qin Mumu who did the public relations... Although I didn't ask about the result later, since Qin Mumu took action, Rosanna
The situation is definitely not optimistic...
Ye An was very dissatisfied when he heard Rosanna's cursing outside the carriage. He frowned and sneered in the carriage: "I didn't believe it when I heard about the feud between Shengmi and others, but I didn't expect to see the shamelessness of Gaochang Uighurs recently!"
Scared! Bayi immediately raised the lantern in his hand, pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and tightly protected Rosanna with his fat body.
When the light dimly shone on Ye An's face, the master and servant exclaimed: "Ye Hou?!"
Ye An held on to the mahogany arms on the carriage and jumped out of the carriage. He looked them up and down and said, "Do you think this is retribution? You are so lucky that you met me when you were heading to Tokyo City! Still here?
In the shed, I originally planned to move the carriage away due to the smell here, but it is an "unexpected surprise" that you have come! Is it like meeting an old friend in a foreign land?"
"Forget it! Of course it does!" Rosanna said with a smile as if she had changed her face: "Being able to meet Ye Hou in Guancheng is truly a blessing from a loving father!"
Only then did Ye An remember that the Uighurs believed in Manichaeism, which was a strange combination of Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism and many other sects. Even its teachings were divided into two sects and three realms.
"We went to the Western Regions specifically for Ye Hou to bring you the kapok you asked for. What's the quality of the cotton? It's much easier to pick than the kapok from the Han family!"
She is worthy of being the most profitable woman in the Western Region. She was able to put aside the embarrassment of being exposed by Ye An in an instant and turned into a shrewd businessman. She also did not forget to show Ye An the cotton on a carriage.
Under the dim light, the quality of the cotton could not be seen at all. Ye An was very dissatisfied with Bayi's attempt to commit suicide by handing over the lantern.
Perhaps knowing the power of cotton burning, Bayi suddenly retracted the hand holding the lantern in shock, and also put away the scimitar that shone coldly in the dim light.
He grabbed a few pieces of cotton with shell seeds entwined together and flattened it in his palm. Ye An blew it gently, and the snow-white cotton wool was blown and swirled like soft fur. Ye An couldn't help but be a little jealous of such a good thing.
It happens to grow in the land of the Western Regions.
Ye An threw the cotton on the car. Although he was reluctant to part with it, he still said against his will: "Xinjiang...the cotton in the Western Regions is good, but it is a pity that it cannot be provided by our Han family on a large scale! This trip of yours
How much does it cost? How many pieces of silk can be exchanged for the same price?! Don't think about making huge profits from me, it's useless. I want this load of cotton, but unless you can lower the price, I won't do it in the future.
Will want it."
"Ye Hou, we agreed at the beginning that you were willing to buy cotton at three times the price of sweet radish! As much as you want!"
Facing Bayi's dissatisfaction, Ye An nodded seriously: "That's right! That's what I said at the beginning, but you insulted me first, even if I break the contract, it's not an exaggeration, right? What's more, I am willing to do the same
If I buy your cart of cotton at such a price, it will definitely make your misfortunes on the road in vain, right?"
"But we still have five cars..."
Rosanna's eyes were already a little red. Thinking that she had traveled thousands of miles to transport cotton back, the young man in front of her was actually trying to lower the price again. She could only hold back the tears in her eyes and forced a smile: "Ye Hou doesn't need to do this.
To lower the price, just state your price."
Ye An looked at Roxana strangely: "Do you think I'm kidding? No, this cotton is valuable in my eyes, but how can it be compared with silk in the eyes of wealthy people in Tokyo?! You can only sell it to me, don't think about it
Sell it to others, don’t you know, cotton can be compacted, compacted! It doesn’t even take off the shell, so how much less cotton will you transport along the way?!”
So Rosanna burst out with a "Wow" cry, and she felt that she was once again driven to a dead end by this hateful young man.
As Ye An said, the price of these cottons is not very expensive in Uighurs. Although there are not many people selling the seeds, no one knows what they can do besides twisting them into threads.
But the cost they spent along the way was so high that Rosanna herself could hardly imagine it, but she knew that Ye An would definitely want these snow-white, long-staple kapok if he offered a high price.
I just didn't expect that he would shamelessly use trivial matters to suppress himself. Just one cart! According to the price Ye An offered, a cart of cotton could only cost her a round trip!
As a Uighur princess, she did not hesitate to spend several months transporting cotton back and forth thousands of miles. Who knew that this would be the result, but the time limit set by the Party members for Gaochang was about to come.
Bayi looked at Rosanna in shock. This little master he had served since childhood had never shown such a weak side.
How did he know that Roxana's grievances and urgency did not come from Ye An's pressure, but from the party members and her distant hometown.
It's just that her crying made Ye An panic. A girl crying in front of you in the middle of the night, or in the palace of the imperial court, how... is this inappropriate?!
There were already a few probing soldiers nearby, especially after seeing Rosanna who was crying, a "Master Marquis is domineering" expression immediately appeared on his face, and he shrunk with a lewd smile.
go back.
When he saw Chen Lin walking around with a "strange smile" and disappearing from the door of the carriage yard, Ye An couldn't help but said: "That's enough! I want it!"
"Chenghui, one thousand three hundred guan, does not count as a province!"
Looking at Rosanna's smiling face with tears, Ye An felt that he should slap himself to death......
