Frame by frame living picture scroll.
He stopped and walked wherever he wanted, and was finally dragged into the door by a woman with two braids.
"Young master, come in for a drink? My family's drinks are famous in this cool city. If you ask the neighbors, my family's drinks are the purest and strongest in the whole street." Hu Nu giggled, her voice clear and sweet. , holding Ming Yu and boasting about his own things.
"Really? Is it really that good?" Ming Yu was a little tired after walking for so long, so he just walked in.
Hu Nv's eyebrows and eyes were curved, and her eyes were full of turbulent waves. How many of the guards have seen such a formation, their faces are flushed, and they really go in when they see the master's face does not change, and they are in a dilemma for a while.
The Hu girl giggled, "How can you be so shy, the big gentlemen, how can you be as generous and respectable as this little boy?" She was blunt, and the few people she said just wanted to find a place to get in.
She also saw that this group of people were all Han people, so she started to tease. Han people are really interesting, and men are even more ashamed than women.
Ming Yu is also funny, these guards are all from the capital, and their knowledge is naturally extraordinary. However, the girls of the Han family are all dignified, elegant, and reserved and gentle. Today, when I meet a voluptuous Hu girl who is boldly dressed and shows snow-white arms and legs, I am afraid that I don't know where to put my eyes?
"Come in and drink some water and have a rest before going for a walk elsewhere." Ming Yu opened his mouth to relieve the siege, "Why does the girl make it difficult for them? It's the first time I come here, it is inevitable that I will be a little restrained."
Hu Nu pursed her lips and muttered, "Isn't it the first time to see Young Master here?" Having said that, she let them go, turned her body aside, and let them in. Only then did the few people breathe a sigh of relief and were busy. Like hiding from a snake and scorpion, he slipped in.
Seeing this, Hu Nu's little mouth was about to go to the sky. Is she so scary? Thinking about it, she felt funny, but when customers entered the store, she couldn't be neglected, and hurriedly went to greet customers to order wine and food.
The store is not big, there are six or seven tables, you can see everything at a glance, and there are two tables already seated with customers. Ming Yu chose a seat by the window and sat down. Several guards did not dare to sit at the same table with him, so they chose a similar position to form a protective circle.
Soon, the wine and dishes came up, which are the signature dishes unique to the Hu people. Ming Yu tasted it slowly, and it really had a different flavor.
"Buatan, you have to think about it, just let it have a good time. Tell me, what do you think?"
A voice came into Ming Yu's ears. He didn't care at first, but after hearing a familiar name, he looked over there.
It was quite a coincidence that sitting not far away with his back to them was the barbarian Bua Tan whom he had just met yesterday. He didn't intend to recognize the person, but their conversation later caught his attention.
"He Danhan, I've been thinking about it for a long time. You know my bread business is hard enough to support my family. Yesterday, I quarreled with your sister-in-law again. Last night, I thought about it for a night before I made up my mind. If you come up with an idea, you will have to fight it once, don't do anything else, just live a breath." Bua Tan took a sip of wine, his voice muffled.
After a pause, Bua Tan continued: "If you don't think about it, I won't come to you, how about it? In a word, would you like to follow my brother?"
He Danhan thought about it for a long time, and was a little tangled, unable to make up his mind. "Brother, have you really decided? This risk..." He paused and looked at Bua Tan, "You have to think about it, it's not as good as it used to be, since Boss Luo's caravan suffered five years ago. , how many people still dare to do it now?"
What he said was that five years ago, the largest caravan in the frontier was Boss Luo, with more than ten carriages and hundreds of guards. However, from a business trip five years ago, when I came back, there was no news for some reason. Finally, someone saw the broken carriages and horses of the caravan in the wilderness, but there was no one left alive, and the goods were looted. At that time, this incident caused a sensation in the entire Liangzhou. I heard that this caravan encountered bandits, and the whole army was wiped out. Afterwards, several waves of caravans were robbed one after another. Since then, the caravans have gradually become scarce. Who would risk their lives to travel to trade?
"To tell you the truth, even if you don't follow me, I have to do this business. Dayan's items are extremely rare in various countries in the west, and the items from there are also priceless. I only need If you go twice, you will definitely make a lot of money, and then how can you let your mother-in-law and children live a good life." Bua Tan said his plan.
Thieves are difficult to deal with, but as long as you are careful, if you encounter one, the thieves are also seeking money, and they may be safe and sound with money. Besides, he didn't believe that his luck was so bad. Under the circumstance of doing it secretly, he would encounter bandits as soon as he came. No matter how hard he fought, it wouldn't be worse than now, right?
He Danhan thought of the prospect that Buatan said, and it is false to say that he is not moved. It's just that it's more difficult for him to decide than Bua Tan wants to make a decision at the moment, "Then brother, please allow me to think about it."
Bua Tan was also very straightforward, nodded and agreed: "That's okay, you can think about it, but time waits for no one, you'd better reply to me as soon as possible."
He Danhan couldn't care about drinking at this time, and couldn't sit still. "Then I'll go back and discuss with my family and answer you in three days." After speaking, he got up and left.
Buatan didn't leave him either, and when He Danhan left, he was ready to settle the bill himself.
At this moment, someone patted him on the shoulder, and Bua Tan turned around and almost fell to his knees in fright. Isn't this the prince I saw on the street yesterday? How do you meet here?
He was about to salute, but Ming Yu stopped him, walked to the opposite side of him and sat down, and then motioned for him to sit down and talk.
Buatan didn't dare to disobey, and sat down tremblingly.
Ming Yu was very interested, "Do you want to go to Western countries to do business?"
Ming Yu only listened to it, and after a little analysis, he already knew Bua Tan's plan. So as soon as you open your mouth, you are ready to go straight to the topic.
Bua Tan's heart skipped a beat, and there was only one bad thought. It's over, it's over, now that this guy knows about it, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat and walk around.
But how could someone like him accept his fate so easily? His eyes rolled, and there was only one thought in his mind, which he must never admit.
In Dayan, foreign trade is not allowed. But the benefits are so huge that many people take risks for the sake of profit. Of course, this is only secret, and no one dares to mention it in the open.
Buatan made an appointment with He Danhan here today and stated his plans. One is that he is too excited, and the other is that this is a gathering place for the Hu people, and these things are commonplace here. Thirdly, he didn't expect the prince to come here at all.
With a shy face, Bua Tan said to him, "Hey! Your Majesty, I'm afraid you heard it wrong? How dare a villain..."
Ming Yu's slender fingers tapped the table lightly, staring at Bua Tan with a half-smile.
Buatan couldn't say any more what he said next, and shut up embarrassedly.
"Okay, this king doesn't talk nonsense with you, and I don't want to punish you. However, you have to reveal your plan in full." Ming Yu smiled, giving people a gentle and harmless feeling.
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Bua Tan thought that he had escaped the catastrophe, but when he heard the back, his face turned pale. When he is stupid? He also said that he will not be punished, and will there be any good results waiting for him after he has fully disclosed it?
Ming Yu tapped on the table casually, "It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't say it, you know that this Liangcheng is now the king's territory, and your every move can't escape the eyes of this king, unless you Leaving Liangcheng..."
This is naturally impossible. He has been here for more than ten years, his mother-in-law is from Liangcheng, and his children have grown up here. How can he lose his hard-working connections.
Bua Tan was weighing the pros and cons when he heard Ming Yu casually say, "Have you ever thought about what if your caravan was escorted by this king?"
Bua Tan's hand shook, and the wine glass on the table rolled to the ground and shattered, and everyone in the store looked over. Bua Tan embarrassedly smiled and apologized: "Slippery, slippery."
He called Hu Nu to remove the leftovers from the table, and ordered another table of dishes. At this time, Bua Tan's heart stabilized just now, and he pondered the meaning of Duan Wang's words in front of him.
12. Chapter 12
After all, he still hadn't figured out why, and he was stunned and asked directly: "My lord, what do you mean?"
Ming Yu no longer embarrassed him, and said with a smile: "This king is going to set up a caravan, which can do business with countries in the Western Regions, you should know it? That is, the tea, porcelain and silk products from the southern part of our Dayan Kingdom will be transported to the statue. Wan Guo, Di Guo, Ma Dan, Hu Hu... Well, then the spices and gems from other countries are also very popular to be sold in Dayan country."
Bu Atan was already stunned. He didn't expect that the dignified prince of Yan Kingdom could say such words in an open and honest way. He remembers that Dayan has not yet allowed trade with other countries, right? Or has the situation changed unknowingly?
He asked cautiously, "My lord, have the rules of the Great Yan Kingdom changed?"
Ming Yu shook his head, "Of course not, but who is this king? The rules are set by our family. Do you think this king needs to abide by such rules?"
"This..." Bua Tan was speechless, what Ming Yu said was the truth, and the rules were always followed by the people below.
"Now, this king is this
