Early in the morning, Yang Shiqing rode a horse to Liren City. Although the court was busy these two days, Yang Yuanqing had nothing to do. Emperor Yang Guang allowed him to rest for half a month before going back. The order of the Ministry of War was immediately taken back. Yang Yuanqing had his own plans.
In three days, Princess Leping's birthday will be. He plans to go to Jiangnan after his birthday to find his aunt and Niu Niu. It has been more than a month since he returned from Dali City, but he has not gone south for a long time. This time, he wants to
Go to Jiangnan.
Today, Yang Yuanqing came to Liren City to look for Combas, and then asked about Fat Yu and the others. After he came back from Taiyuan City, the three of them had no news and did not leave him a letter, which made him quite worried. He was worried.
He Ruo's mansion refused to let them go.
Yang Yuanqing had already learned that He Ruobi was executed, but he had no guilt. He could only say that He Ruobi had brought it upon himself. He had obviously spared his life in the school life and death battle. If he had any idea of himself, he shouldn't go back on his word.
If you continue to murder yourself, but fail to kill someone, you will give your life. God will not let him down.
Yang's mansion is about seven or eight miles away from Liren City. Soon, he rode his horse into the gate of Liren City. The streets of Liren City are bustling and noisy, not only are some shops related to the rice shop and meat shop.
The guests were full, and the rest of the shops were filled with guests.
Silk shop, gold bank, jewelry shop, musical instrument shop, etc., there are friends in every shop standing at the door and shouting loudly, attracting business. Some time ago, the emperor was in funeral, and there were many restrictions, which directly affected the business in the capital, and with Yang
The chaotic rebellion subsided, and the business in the capital gradually recovered and became lively again.
Yang Yuanqing led his horse into the gate of Liren City. Liren City has thousands of shops, so he couldn't ask one by one, let alone hundreds of shops in the metropolitan city. The most effective way is to find the village of Combas.
party.
He urged the horse to come to dozens of shops in Bos Palace, rolled over and got off the horse, and walked towards the largest shop. Bos Palace refers to the business opened by Hu Business, with a main business of operating jewelry, and a total of three shops.
More than a dozen companies were basically opened by Sogdian merchants.
Sogdian merchants had two harmony, one was that they lived in the Central Plains for many years... They had been naturalized in the Sui Dynasty, and they could speak fluent Chinese. Like ordinary Sui Dynasty merchants, they could open Tang Dynasty property, marry and have children in the Sui Dynasty.
These Sogdians still mainly do business, and the most common ones were Hu people's taverns and jewelry stores. The more than thirty shops in Bosida were their industries.
There was also a Sogdian merchant...these were travelers who were traveling on the Silk Road...they transported Sogdian jewelry, bos carpets, Roman gold and silverware and spices from big food to the Sui Dynasty, and then the Sui Dynasty
The silk, porcelain and paper were transported back to the West. In the capital, they would not stay for too long. They usually sold goods directly to the shops in Bos Palace. They were all Sogdians, and they had a common language and
Belief.
The shop found by Yang Yuanqing is called Samojian Old Store..." Samojian is also the transliteration of Samarkand. You can tell at a glance that it was opened by Kang Guoren... It is also a jewelry store, and Kangbas is Kang Guoren.
There may be news about him in the store.
As soon as I walked to the door of the store... The middle-aged Sogdian man wearing a rolled-brim hat came up and bowed to him with the etiquette of the Sui Dynasty and said, "Dear guest, welcome to the shop, I don't know I can provide you with it."
What kind of help?”
But Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, put his hand in front of Xiong and bowed to him, and said in a not-so-skilled Sogdian language: "The revelation of the Lord God of An Ahuramazda, come and inquire about someone.
Yang Yuanqing's Sogdian and Turkic language were both learned from Combas. He was relatively proficient in Turkic language, and his Sogdian was much inferior. Despite this, it still surprised and delighted the Sogdian. After all,
There are very few Han people who can speak Sogdian, and they are also inspired by the Lord God.
The estrangement disappeared in the common language, and the guests became friends. The Sogdians greeted each other enthusiastically and used Sogdians instead, "Guests are kindly asked to sit in the inner room."
Yang Yuanqing walked into the inner room. This was the place where Sogdian merchants were entertaining distinguished guests. The room was bright and the walls were snow-white. Several gold-edged velvet blankets from Eastern Rome were hung. The small cabinets against the wall were filled with Damascus.
The silverware made by famous craftsmen is covered with thick bos carpets on the ground, and is arranged very gorgeously.
He sat down on Hu's couch, and the Sogdian merchant presented him a bowl of butterfly and asked curiously: "Does this general also believe in the Lord Ahuramazda?" g, believe in light and hate darkness, but
But I lost his news."
The Sogdian merchant understood, and he smiled and said, "I am also here in Samarkand. I wonder if I know the general's friend?"
"His name is Combass, do you know the shopkeeper?"
The Sogdian merchant laughed knowingly, "The general's surname is Yang, he is the garrison of Dali City, yes!"
Yang Yuanqing was overjoyed, and it turned out that the news came here, "I am Yang Yuanqing, here to find Combas."
"He went to Gaochang Country to purchase goods. Before leaving, he asked me to tell the general, so that you don't have to worry. I just came back from Luoyang and was about to go to Yang's mansion tomorrow. I didn't expect that the general would come first. I'm so ashamed."
The Sogdian businessman heard that Yang Yuanqing's Sogdian language was not very good, so he changed it to Chinese and smiled and said, "My name is Cornell. I met Conbas more than ten years ago, and later he
Missing near Yiwu City, everyone thought he was dead, but he didn't expect that he had become a Sui army in Dali City. It was really surprising and pleasant... "Yang Yuanqing took the butterfly and took a sip and asked strangely.
: "What goods did he buy in Gaochang Country?"
"He opened a wine shop and wanted to sell pomelo wine. The profit of this wine was very high, so he went to Gaochangguo to purchase goods. At the same time, he also wanted to learn the brewing process. It might take several months to come back."
Yang Yuanqing couldn't help but secretly praised Conbas for his business acumen and discovered a huge business opportunity. At this time, the brewing process of Pujiao wine had not yet been introduced to the Central Plains, and it was basically relied on long-distance trafficking, making it difficult for it to enter ordinary people.
Suddenly, he felt that the city of Dali is full of sunshine and the climate is suitable. The land is fertile sandy loam, which is very suitable for roe apples. If you plant a lot of roe apples there, and then use roe apple wine as the industry of Dali city, this is a
Very good way to make money, not bad, I want to stop Combas and leave the winemaking process in the city of Italy.
His heart became eager and he hurriedly said, "I want to leave a letter to him. Can the proprietor pass it to him for me?"
"Yes, I will definitely transfer it to him."
Yang Yuanqing immediately borrowed paper and spread paper and wrote a letter. Halfway through the writing, he suddenly remembered something and asked Cornell, "With Combass, there are two others, one of them is very fat..."
Before he could finish speaking, Cornell laughed, "General Yang is talking about fat fish!"
"Yes! It's him, where are they now?"
"They have left the capital long ago, but they are just going to Luoyang. The fat fish seems to be saying that they will send me some pensions. I don't know what kind of pensions they will give."
Yang Yuanqing understood that this was right. At this moment, a slight crisp sound came from the shop outside. 'Bang!, with a sound, as if something had broken. Almost at the same time, a young woman screamed.
The son was silent again.
Yang Yuanqing and Cornell looked at each other, wondering what happened? Soon a Hu guy whispered at the door: "Uncle, come on."
"General, please sit down and I'll go..."
Cornell was a little uneasy and walked out the door quickly, and he only heard him ask in a low voice: "What broke?"
The guy whispered a few times, "What!" Cornell exclaimed, and then walked quickly towards the store.
Yang Yuanqing quickly wrote a letter, blowing it dry, folding it, and then put it on the table. But after thinking about it, he was still not relieved. He had a few words that he wanted to explain to Cornell.
Yang Yuanqing got up and walked to the shop outside. There was no one in the main hall. There was a low complaint from a living room next to him. There was a place for trading. Yang Yuanqing walked into the living room, and there were more than a dozen couches in the living room. At this time,
The atmosphere in the living room was very depressing. There were three girls standing next to a couch, all of whom were nervous.
In a cabinet behind them, there was a beautiful red se enamel bottle. This was an enamel bottle from Eastern Rome. It should be a pair, and the other one had fallen into pieces.
Cornell said nothing, squatting on the ground and silently packing up the pieces. He was very slow, little by little, carefully putting the pieces into a jade plate, as if these pieces were worth a thousand gold.
This is actually a body language, which tells the three girls that the enamel bottles they broke are very expensive. A handkerchief was stalked uneasily in their hands, and the distant mountains were as green as a layer of light fog.
A trace of unconcealed worry flowed out from her beautiful eyes, and it can be seen that this enamel bottle was broken by her.
Yang Yuanqing suddenly felt that the pair of beautiful eyes looked familiar, and seemed to have seen them somewhere, but he couldn't remember them for a moment.
Finally, an older girl asked timidly: "How much does this bottle cost? We will compensate."
Cornell said with a smile: "If it is an ordinary enamel bottle, it would be fine, but this pair of enamel bottles were made by Mayer, a famous craftsman in the country of Fuji. It is very expensive. There is only this pair in my store, and someone once released one.
I don’t want to sell it for ten thousand yuan.”
"Ten thousand hang!"
Three girls exclaimed, and they looked at each other, and the embarrassment in their eyes turned into horror. The girl's face, which was as white as a autumn water man, turned pale, and beads of sweat oozed out from her plump forehead, and her charming eyes
There was tears in her heart, and she was raising her money for 10,000 yuan. How could she pay for it?
"But only one broken, right?" the older girl asked in a trembling voice.
Cornell sighed secretly, "This is a pair of enamel bottles. One is broken. What's the point of the other one? Just like a pair of shoes, only one is sold, who would buy it?"
He could see that even if he paid one, the three girls might not be able to afford it. He could only smile bitterly and said, "That's just one!"
