Chapter 661 Qiuxiang has been very quiet(1/3)
Buck was quietly listening to his subordinates' reports at the residence.
"The merchants of the Tang Dynasty were discussing affairs in the city. They wanted to eat our goods, but they were a little dissatisfied with the price and thought we were too greedy."
Several big cannibals sat opposite him, sneering.
"Then let them go to the West and buy it yourself."
"They cannot cross the strait. In addition, the Byzantines will intercept the caravan... Dashi is in civil strife, if the caravans of the Tang Dynasty dare to go..."
"They will die under the scimitar!"
Buck said lightly: "Business needs to be done. This is Anxi, and further forward is the Hexi Corridor. I have always wanted to go and see Chang'an... They said that Chang'an is the most shocking city in the world. The whole city is huge. Those people have money. If we go, we will definitely make amazing money."
"Buck, how should I reply to them?"
Buck said coldly: "Free buying and selling."
A follower came in, "Bak, Kucha, the country of Kucha mainly held a banquet. The palace officials said that only ten thousand yuan would allow us to see Bushbi... In addition, there were many honorable guests who would go."
Buck had a hot look in his eyes, "If you do business, you must meet noble people. Maybe just one word can bring us endless wealth... Give him money!"
...
In another place, a group of Tang Dynasty merchants also received the news.
"It's said that one person has five thousand dollars."
"Is Bu Shubi crazy?"
"No, no, no, it is the greed of the people in the palace."
"Go and give him money."
"Qiu Xiu, what should I do with Buck?"
Everyone looked at a middle-aged man.
Qiu Xiu said lightly: "He is too greedy and tell us that we should not buy Buck's goods!"
"If you don't buy it... our batch will make less money!"
"Make less money, make less money." Qiu Lin said: "This is the Tang Dynasty. With him and Hu Shang, he dare to show off his power here? Suffocate him to death!"
...
The banquet begins in the afternoon.
Buck and others came outside the palace and happened to meet Qiu Lin and others.
The two of them slowly approached, and Buck said lightly: "My goods are not short of buyers."
"But it won't be the buyer of Datang!"
Qiu Lin smiled and said, "Businessmen are greedy, but endless greed will only make people disgusted."
The two smiled at each other and then went in.
A servant took them in.
There were some cushions placed outside the palace. Qiu Lin just took a look and knew that this was prepared for them.
It would be nice for a businessman to have a seat outside.
This is also in line with the current status of a businessman.
Buck's companion whispered, "Why can't you go in?"
Buck glanced at Qiu Lin, "Dang Dynasty thought that merchants were lowly, so... Bu Shibi also followed this, otherwise we would definitely be able to go in."
Dashi is in chaos now, and through bribery, he successfully became a guest of honor for the officials in his hometown.
But here, he could only humiliately blow the cold wind outside.
“Too bad.”
He couldn't help but sigh.
Headed by him, the cannibals sat opposite the Tang people.
There is the aisle in the middle, which is clearly divided.
Qiu Lin narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "This is the Tang Dynasty."
"But the king prefers money." Buck retorted.
The Tang Dynasty must give Bu some face, otherwise the indigenous people and the military of Kucha would not return home and could cause trouble for the Tang Dynasty at any time.
This is true.
Qiu Lin smiled and said, "I forgot to tell you that the Tang Dynasty merchants will not purchase goods from you."
"I can sell it to Kucha people." Buck shook his head slightly, "We do business not rely on a certain country or force. If it doesn't work here, then we will go somewhere else."
You're crazy enough!
Qiu Lin hopes that he can keep going wild, "By the way, Zhang Changshi of Anxi Protectorate will come."
"I do business." Buck said lightly: "The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said that merchants from all over the world are welcome. I can come here and go to Chang'an."
"He doesn't eat the hard and soft food."
The companion behind Qiu Lin whispered: "Don't bow your head."
Qiu Lin nodded, "How could the Tang people bow to such people? Don't even think about it. Even if you buy less goods."
He smiled slightly, "There are many things that are more important than money."
When Buck heard this, he said sarcastically: "I forgot to tell you that I have presented several foreign beauties to the king, and no calculations of yours can be carried out in Kucha."
"Marquis Wuyang!"
A greeting outside.
When Buck saw Qiu Lin and others stand up with a solemn expression, he turned his head and looked outside.
The official who received the guest smiled and wrinkles on his face were piled up. It was a pity that when they came, the official just nodded slightly...
Smile, you're thinking too much.
Even if they nodded, it was due to the admission fee they paid.
"who?"
Buck was a little curious about the person's reaction.
A young man walked in.
Buck's eyes shrank.
No, no, it's not him!
He was waiting for the distinguished guest.
But the official bent down slightly and smiled flatteringly: "Marty Wuyang, the king has been waiting for you, please follow me."
The young man looked up and did not pay attention to the officials.
His expression was calm, his eyes turned, and he swept past Buck and others.
Qiu Lin stood up and bowed, "I have met Marquis Wuyang."
Jia Ping'an nodded and smiled.
Marquis Wuyang is indeed approachable.
Qiu Lin smiled and said, "I learned that Wuyang Marquis was coming, so I came early to wait. Wuyang Marquis stepped on the Turkic tent, which was admirable. I immediately donated 100,000 yuan when I heard the news, which was considered to contribute to the Anxi immigrants."
Jia Ping'an smiled and said, "All people are from the Tang Dynasty. If you have the Tang Dynasty in your heart, you are a good person. As the saying goes, you dare not forget your worries about the country when you are low, and you do well!"
Qiu Lin said happily: "Thank you, Marquis Wuyang for the praise."
"Marty Wuyang, we are not willing to fall behind, and we donated money. We just thought that we could make Anxi more stable."
"It will definitely be as stable as Mount Tai!" Jia Ping'an walked into the middle of the aisle and said confidently: "If you are happy to do business here, Anxi will only get better and better."
"Marty Wuyang, please!" the official smiled.
Jia Ping'an's words were a vague statement: Kucha would no longer exist.
Since all have immigrated and appointed officials, I will put shackles on Kucha.
Jia Ping'an entered the hall, and Qiu Lin said happily: "Marty Wuyang is indeed kind. The saying that the low-ranking position dares not forget the country is refreshing, which makes people feel energetic."
"Wuyang Marquis rode three hundred horses in the joint camp, and one horse was a thousand. Ashinahelu was spared only by himself!"
"They said that Wuyang Hou is a killer."
"That's what the Tubo people said." Qiu Lin sat down and said proudly: "The Tubo army raided Tuyuhun. The Marquis of Wuyang not only defeated the enemy, but also captured the Tubo general alive, saying that he would not keep the prisoners... Those Tubo people were afraid of being killed."
"And Jingguan!"
"Yes." Qiu Lin smiled and said, "This time, it was said that Wuyang Hou defeated the enemy in Yecheng, killed more than 30,000 people, and built Jingguan. Jingguan with more than 30,000 people! It was said that it was towering into the sky and could be seen hundreds of miles away."
This sentence...
It's only a few hundred miles to see it.
Not to mention hundreds of miles, you can't see it ten miles away.
But Qiu Lin's words are used to show off.
Are you afraid?
He looked at Buck.
Buck was shaking.
