Chapter 64 Four People
Chapter 64 Four people
Ye Zhao unexpectedly expected that the day after he arrived in Dihua, Gulishayier was taken to the police station as a suspect in the "smuggling merchant".
The so-called smuggling merchants are groups that secretly transport Chinese goods to trade with Tsarist Russian merchants, and are common in Dihua, Chaktu and other places.
The trade between China and the Oros has a long history. In the Treaty of Nebchu, it stipulated that "from the date of peace agreement, all peoples of the two countries will be allowed to cross the border and trade with each other." The Treaty of Chaktu regulates the geographical location of trade activities: "Those who trade sporadically at the junction of the two countries can choose appropriate locations in Chaktu and Selenge, to build houses, walls and fences."
Twenty years ago, the "Tarbach-Taiwan Trade Charter of China-Russia Ili Tarbach-Taiwan Trade Charter" allowed Tsarist Russian merchants to establish business stations in Ili and Tarbach-Taiwan.
However, after the empire was unified, all China-Russia land trade was closed because Russia intervened in the Chinese civil war. As a punitive measure, the empire interrupted China-Russia land trade. Of course, it was essentially to expel Russian merchants and prevent them from separatist and infiltration activities in *** and Outer Mongolia.
However, in the entire 19th century, before the rise of Indian tea, Europeans had no more dependence on Chinese tea, and Tsarist Russia was no exception. When they lost their direct source of land tea, Tsarist Russians could only buy Chinese tea from Europe at high prices, and naturally complained. Then, there was a smuggling campaign of Russian merchants cooperating with Chinese merchants to smuggle Chinese tea from *** or Outer Mongolia. In recent years, the variety of goods has become increasingly rich, including cosmetics such as sauce, chemicals, large items, and even cameras and bicycles. It can be said to be varied and all-encompassing.
When China and Russia first traded, most of them used barter. However, there were no industrial products in Oros that could arouse the interest of Chinese merchants. They paid more gold and silver coins, and even used "Belarus female slaves" to exchange for Chinese goods. In the capital, a secret underground trading market for "Belarus female slaves" was gradually formed. Rich businessmen who liked to raise white-skinned maids secretly bought female slaves through the black market. The market was very small, and only traded more than twenty female slaves last year, so they did not attract the attention of the government.
The most common strongholds of Chinese smuggling merchants are Dihua, Ulya Sutai and Chaktu.
Dihua City is a multi-ethnic mixed city, including Han people, Hui people, Uyghurs, Kazakhs, *** people, Kyrgyzs, Tajiks, Uzbeks, etc. There are even hundreds of Oros living in the city. Most of these Oros were immigrants who could not bear the oppression of the Tsar at the end of the last century, and a small number were immigrants in recent years, including some Tsarist merchants stranded in Dihua.
In fact, due to the rise of "white religion", there are more and more Muslims and non-Muslims intermarriages, and there are more and more people living in various ethnic groups, and this kind of ethnic community is gradually shrinking.
Unfortunately, when Gulishayier accidentally discovered the Kirgiz gathering area in the city and then wandered around curiously, it happened that because the emperor was stationed in Dihua, the *** Police Department issued a document to "camp down on smuggling activities" across the country. A raid by the Dihua Police Department was in the Kirgiz gathering area. Gulishayier was affected by the fish in the pond and became a suspect and was taken to the police station.
At the beginning of this year, the Imperial Police System was officially renamed the police system. Because the word "police" is too aggressive and does not mean to protect citizens, Ye Zhao had long wanted to change the name. After thinking about it, he felt that "police" was more neutral, so he used this imported noun that he was more familiar with.
At the police station, the female guard who accompanied them reported their residence addresses and showed their residence tickets. The patrol police released the two.
The road ticket is a certificate that the current empire migrant population must issue from the government office at or above the first level of the township. It describes the appearance of merchants, migrant populations, etc., because there is no ID card now and the communication is inconvenient. If a valid identity certificate is not implemented, many criminals will never be able to be captured.
Regarding Gulishayier's description, "beautiful as a flower, delicate facial features, and amber-colored eyes" was written by Ye Zhao. Except Gulishayier, there was naturally no one else. The policewoman who asked the question was stunned for a long time when he saw this description. The first time he saw a description of the road ticket could use beautiful and ugly words, but it did prove that the woman in front of him was no different, and then he let him go.
When Gulishayier returned to the palace awkwardly, Ye Zhaozheng talked with Bao Yuanshen, the governor of the *** Provincial Government. When Gulishayier was taken to the police station for questioning, he couldn't help but feel funny, thinking that you were still as honest as a monkey, and you wouldn't be so angry about it? But in front of the ministers, you wouldn't joke with your concubine.
When Bao Yuanshen heard that Gulisha'er was taken to question by the police station, he was startled and said, "Damn it, I'm not making things difficult for the Empress?"
Gulisha'er shook his head: "That's not." She sat in the empty seat next to the table of the main table, held up the teacup and savored the tea. She calmed down, and she was really dignified and noble, and extremely beautiful.
Bao Yuanshen knew that the emperor must have something to say to the Queen, and when he saw that the emperor had nothing to say, he asked him again, so he immediately stood up and left.
Ye Zhao thought about it and said to Zheng Aqiao: "Generate power to Ruisi, smuggling merchants can make good use of it."
Ye Zhao is not disgusted with the smuggling merchants today. They are all adventurous Chinese. They just violate the imperial ban and will naturally be punished. However, these people have close relationships with the merchants of Oros. If they use them properly, they can inquire about some information. Of course, it is just open information.
He glanced at Gulishayer and smiled and said, "Go out for a walk?"
Gulishayier immediately smiled like a flower and said, "Okay." The little bird held Ye Zhao's arm like a man, and said, "You like this, do you?"
Ye Zhaoxin said that it is good to be able to hold the road like this, but it is too eye-catching. When walking out, he said: "In Beijing, there are still horse riding, you can do whatever you want. The palace is also lively and not so boring."
Gulishayer laughed and said, "Are you afraid I will go back to the grassland?"
Ye Zhao coughed dryly and walked out.
...
It was three days later that Jin Feng and Hua Ji came together. Ye Zhao had just signed a mobilization order to order the empire's millions of reserve troops to carry out large-scale martial arts practices.
That night, Ye Zhao loved Hua Ji very much. It was a great pleasure to hug Hua Ji's soft and helpless little body, which was like a honeypot. Every time he saw Hua Ji wake up the next day, leaning timidly in his arms and not daring to speak, Ye Zhao couldn't help feeling distressed.
Hua Ji may be the one who dresses the most close to Ye Zhaoxin among Ye Zhao's wives. She is originally an Yi people, and her clothes are different from those of the Central Plains. In addition, she listens to Ye Zhao's words very much. Now she is wearing a white lace dress, a pair of bare legs and a pair of small socks with beautiful milky white leather shoes with sapphires. She looks more and more petite. In fact, she has grown a little taller in the past few years, but among the concubines, she is still the softest and petite one.
She has always been unable to go out of the door, and her snow-white calves are attractive.
When Hua Ji put on her clothes, she was shocked to find that it was the lights. She knew it was the next night. Ye Zhao laughed: "Let's go, you're hungry, I'll take you to find something to eat."
The main room in the back house has two bright and three dark structures. When you enter the door, you will have the function of a restaurant. From the main hall, you can enter the east dormitory. Ye Zhao and Hua Ji live here. The east dormitory leads to the corridor north of the east dormitory. The three rooms are dormitory, study and toilet.
Jinfeng and Gulishayier are using snacks in the study.
When Jin Feng saw Ye Zhao coming in, he smiled: "I know you are sure of this. I just baked a thousand-layer cake. Master, please try it."
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "What are you talking about?"
Gulixia Yier's beautiful amber eyes were looking up and down at Hua Ji and Ye Zhao. Perhaps at this moment, she truly realized that Ye Zhao did not belong to her alone.
Ye Zhao stuffed the thousand-layer cake into Hua Ji's hand and said, "Eat it, you're so hungry?"
Hua Ji nodded, holding the thousand-layer cake in her little hand and gently biting it with her small mouth.
Jinfeng pulled her down and said with pain: "That's right, Hua Ji has worked so hard all the way, what's wrong with spending all night?"
Ye Zhao coughed dryly and said, "Go and ask the old mom to make some porridge."
In Dihua, Ye Zhao didn't want to live a life of crowded palace maids, so it was great to have fun with his wives, so he only made Harric choose two reliable mothers to do some hard work.
Jin Feng felt a little sorry for Hua Ji, and she complained casually. After saying that, she knew it was not good. She hurriedly said, "I'll cook it. The red date porridge is appetizing. Do you think it's okay?" Seeing Ye Zhao nodding, she hurriedly walked out, thinking about how to find out the verbal sensation later to see if Master Long lived to be angry.
Jin Feng has a lot of false feelings towards others, but she really likes Hua Ji, because Hua Ji is really heartbreaking.
Ye Zhao looked at Hua Ji who was eating snacks and couldn't help but feel that she was indeed a little beast sometimes, and smiled and said, "Hua Ji, go back and give birth to a big fat boy for me! Big fat girl is OK!"
Hua Ji nodded softly and said, "I'm afraid that Hua Ji will be stupid and will not be lucky enough to touch the emperor's dragon seed."
Ye Zhao said helplessly: "This has nothing to do with being stupid or not." He turned to Gu Lixia Yier and said: "Your temperament is better to be harmonious with Hua Ji. If you are brave, you dare to poke a hole in the sky. When will you give it to Hua Ji?"
Gulishayer blinked without saying a word.
Ye Zhao stretched out his hand and patted her hand gently. He thought that from yesterday to now, she was in a state of turmoil. After all, the status of Kyrgyz women is quite high, and as the patriarch, her husband does not have the qualification to take a concubine.
"I slept with Jinfeng last night?" Ye Zhao asked.
Gulisha Yier said: "Yes, I originally wanted to sleep in the study, but Jin Fengjie would not allow him."
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "The kang is wide enough, and Jinfeng has no bad habits when sleeping, but it is quiet, not like you, she even plays a handful when sleeping."
Gulisha Yier said, "I didn't sleep much, I'm chatting, Sister Jinfeng told me a lot about you."
Ye Zhao smiled and said, "I have anything to say." He paused and said, "Actually, it's great to have a family lively, you'll know after a long time."
Gulishayer stuck out his tongue and said, "Sleeping with Jinfeng Sister is better than sleeping with you. It's delicious. It's not like you, you know how to bully people."
Ye Zhao said speechlessly: "Since she is so good, you two might as well get married. I will issue an order to let us be legal in China and we can marry."
Gulisha Yier said, "Okay, after you divorce Jinfeng Sister, I will recruit her as my husband. It's still time to do so. My clan hasn't selected a new patriarch yet."
