The southern city of Khotan is naturally not as idiotic as Liu Mingjing thought.

Thousands of fully armed soldiers outside the city, and no matter which Western Region country was placed in, they dared not take it lightly, let alone let them enter the city.

You can do it if you want to enter the city, and they can't stop it.

So in the end, it was Liu Mingjing, Liu Mingqi and his group of about a hundred people who entered the city, and the rest were on standby outside, and at the same time they had the opportunity to do business for the merchants and vendors in the southern city of Khotan.

A carefree person like Liu Mingjing is a good PR outside.

Just a few half-baked Tubo dialects, Uighur dialects, and Dakang dialects, a group of his fans appeared at the dinner party held by the city lord.

Everyone surrounded the little prince of Banqu Danzeng, listening to him telling the beauty of Luobo City, the prosperity of Chamdo Prefecture, and the various fairylands on earth in Dakang, all kinds of flowers and cultural styles.

In fact, there are many Dakang caravans in the Western Regions doing business.

However, due to the high degree of risk here, when they came to the Western Regions, they only went to some familiar routes and never ran around.

For example, in the Kingdom of Khotan, two or three groups of Dakang merchants came to buy things a year, and they were very arrogant and strong, so they basically didn't say much.

How could I be like this little Tubo prince who is close to Dakang. He speaks nicely, is generous and generous. Everyone presents the meeting gives you a big white rabbit milk candy. Can you encounter such a good thing elsewhere?

As for how many languages ​​are spoken in another way, and it mainly focuses on Dakang dialect, everyone can understand this.

Pretend to compete!

This is the most familiar to the nobles!

During this period, Liu Mingjing also took everyone to make a few small games, such as soap, flower essential oil, toilet paper, sugar, etc., and a lot of them were distributed as prizes.

Prince Banqu Danzeng was playing with the nobles. As his "steward", Lord Songbuma gathered with the merchants.

Liu Mingqi, the best restaurant in the southern city of Yutian, has taken a floor, and everyone is talking and laughing, talking about doing business.

This year, Dakang refused all transactions with outsiders, and even the big businessmen in Dakang were not allowed to go abroad.

Occasionally, some merchants who take risks and come out of difficult paths sell much more expensive than in previous years.

This has caused a headache for a group of foreign merchants, especially some Hu merchants. They were originally traveling through the Silk Road, but because Dakang did not do business with others at all, they were stopped when they arrived at the checkpoint and had to return.

Not to mention the merchants of the Western Regions and the Uighurs and the Western Qiang merchants, they now only have internal transactions between them, but the quality, type and quantity of goods are completely incomparable to the past.

The people are a little better. The quality of life of the rich and nobles has greatly reduced, which has caused them to complain.

The businessmen are even more anxious.

There is demand but no supply, what do you want us to do?

So at this time, the Tubo caravan that arrived in the Western Regions became the most beautiful boy in everyone's mind.

When Liu Mingqi brags, it’s not vain.

Not only did he promise to give these merchants some share, he also shouted loudly after getting drunk.

"Did you see the escort army outside our city? This time we brought hundreds of trucks of goods and prepared to go to Kucha, Quli and Loulan to sell!"

"If the business is done well this time, then we will definitely bring more products next time! Let everyone make money!!"

Immediately, a group of businessmen were also excited and quickly toasted Lord Songbuma, thanking him for bringing everyone to wealth.

So the host and the guest had fun until the end of the show.

...

The drunk Liu Mingqi and the same drunk Liu Mingjing returned to the inn they booked and immediately became energetic.

After hearing the performance of the group of merchants Liu Mingqi said, Liu Mingjing also talked about the lively city guarding the palace.

Then he said, "Now they all believe that I am a super rich man and a prodigal person... I gave out tens of thousands of taels of silver. This is a deal!"

"But it's not just the rich, we are also big fat sheep!" Liu Mingqi smiled, "You didn't see it today. There are many businessmen's eyes, which are very dangerous! Maybe they have other thoughts!"

"Isn't this what Mingqi did you mean to mislead them on purpose?" Xiong Dabao said with a funny look: "I said why did you get a hundred carriages in Qule Country, filled with sand and soil, making it look like it is loaded with a lot of weight. It turns out that you are waiting for them here?"

"But your Highness, you induce them, and these people don't have the strength to steal things!" Zhang Qin asked, "Is it necessary to let these officers and soldiers from Khotan play the role of robbers, and then we will kill them and give them a warning?"

"It's not them."

Liu Mingqi shook her head, "I asked Jinbabelko, the prime minister of Qule Kingdom before. He said that Khotan is not overbearing and the army is not strong, so he should not cause trouble. The fish I want to catch are more vicious than them... For example, the horse bandits who are rampant in the Western Regions!"

The Western Regions are the intersection of the East and West of the Silk Road.

Usually when Dakang merchants come to the Western Regions, the end of their itinerary.

It’s not that they are unwilling to go further west, but that there are too many horse bandits rampant everywhere after passing through the Western Regions, and the caravans are in danger of being wiped out in the past.

The Uighurs and the Western Qiang kings had a brain and knew that they could not offend merchants, otherwise they would not be able to sell their own things and would not get good items from Dakang.

Therefore, they not only do not bully the caravans, but also protect them and do not allow robbers and robbers to injure these caravans.

Even the Western Regions are.

Once you discover any large-scale horse bandits and do anything that is harmful to the truth, both countries will join forces with the Western Regions army to strangle them.

Over time, the horse bandits did not come to the Western Regions very much, but stayed outside the Western Regions most of the time, specifically robbing merchants from Persia, the Great Yuezhi or even further away.

Of course, what kind of entanglements and stories are there on that side, it is not what Liu Mingqi needs to worry about now.

Although these horse bandits do not come to the Western Regions often, they can hear news that the caravans are looted here every year - they did not kill people, they just robbed, which also avoided many subsequent troubles.

The young man didn't know whether these horse bandits were real horse bandits or were pretended by officers and soldiers from Western Regions, but it is well known that the restlessness of the Western Regions is well known.

Although the twelve countries in the Western Regions did not fight much, they were not very safe after leaving the city.

When Liu Mingqi and the others arrived in front of Qule City, their first reaction was to run into the city to hide and be prepared. This was a manifestation of the security situation in the Western Regions.

If it is for ordinary businessmen, it is certainly not a good thing to meet a horse bandit.

But for Liu Mingqi, it was a good opportunity.

Otherwise, he would not have tried his best to find a hundred carriages in Qule Country, filled with soil, and let the Qianniu Guards act as coachmen temporarily and set off with the team.

Then along the way, he and Liu Mingjing gave these valuable items from Prince Yu's Mansion everywhere, which proved that their goods were numerous and good, and the carriage was full of precious and precious things!

He just wanted to make others think that the caravan of this little Tubo prince was a super fat sheep.

To put it bluntly, Liu Mingqi is preparing to fish.

What he wanted to fish were the horse bandits rampant in the Western Regions.

And Liu Mingqi hopes that the more you come, the better and the more cruel you will make an appointment.

Just like picking up girls, I won’t conquer the hottest woman, how can I be called the fierce man who is invincible in the golden spear?

Zhang Qin didn't understand after hearing this: "Your Highness, shouldn't we be more low-key and discuss with these Western Region countries how to fight against the Uighurs and the Western Qiang? Are you a little bit of putting the cart before the horse when you come to help them fight the horse bandits? Besides, if we leak our whereabouts, we will be in danger again."

Speaking of danger, Zhang Qin was not afraid of it himself, but was worried about Liu Mingqi and the others.

Liu Mingqi replied after hearing this, "Brother Zhang, you don't understand. We are empty talk. How can we let the people of the Western Regions know our strength and how can we believe us? Only by fighting one battle can they face us and know our power!

As for the question of whether it is dangerous or not, we are not afraid! We are now very good at soldiers and food, and we also have hot air balloons to support at any time. If they were smarter, they would not have come to capture me again!"

Liu Mingjing laughed beside him: "Yes! Otherwise, Brother Zhang, do you think this kid asked Fang Lei and Mingyou to lead hot air balloons to Longxing Mansion respectively, and why did the Uighur Royal Court go around? Isn't it just to scare them and let them throw themselves into a jealous way?"

"Is it useful?" Xiong Dabao was also very interested. "I think these barbarians probably don't care much about this threat, right?"

"If it were before we fought that day's bloody battle, I'm afraid they wouldn't care." Liu Mingqi said: "But with such a painful lesson, as long as Mozang Haochuan and Ugala are not fools, they wouldn't dare to act rashly... After all, they should know the bloody lessons of the Tubo Palace now!"

Zhang Qin is now on the head.

The Tubo people may not be able to see the incident of Liu Mingqi burning the Tubo Palace, but the Western Qiang, who have suffered from hell cocktails and oil burning, must know clearly.

Such a whole palace was burned, and the guards had no reaction at all before, so there was only a disaster that fell from the sky.

If Mozang Haochuan and Ugala are a little brainy, they must also consider whether they can bear the consequences.

When you are poor, you will feel that this cheap life doesn't matter and you will do anything to make a name for yourself.

If you become rich, have a beautiful wife and concubine, have both children, and have endless wealth and glory, then you will be a beggar and you will never be beaten to death.

This is true for the Uighurs and the Western Qiang.

Finally, there was a little shadow of the Central Plains dynasty. The Western Qiang had two cities, and the Uighurs were preparing to build cities. Then you came to set fire and bombard the city all day long... Who can stand this horse-treading?

Then it was indeed Liu Mingqi and the others who were not afraid.

The hard journey of being chased has been persisted, and now with enough support, they have more confidence to deal with the enemy.

"Only tigers are worthy of people's followers." Liu Mingqi concluded: "Only when we let the Western Regions countries see that Dakang has this powerful strength and is willing to help them get rid of their exploited position, then they will bury the seeds of resistance in their hearts, and they will take root and sprout and bloom one day!"

Liu Mingjing and the other three said yes.

But they didn't know that Liu Mingqi had another idea in her mind.

This Western Regions is the inherent territory of our Chinese kingdom since ancient times, so we cannot let it fall into pieces.

In the future, I will definitely take over the people in my own territory. The people from the Western Regions are my Dakang people!

I am now taking the opportunity to cultivate some admirers and supporters in the Western Regions. The future path of annexing the Western Regions will not be so difficult.
Chapter completed!
