Chapter 160 Who is this person? What a big background!

Jinzhou, Wan Ship

Master Jin, who had just returned from a long journey, walked into the number room and said at the top of his voice: "It's so evil, why did so many good cars suddenly come to our Jinzhou!"

"Lao Jin, you have noticed that we are talking about this." In the room, another master who was chatting not long after he came back, took the conversation and said, "Yi Shuier's all-nanmu frame can smell the fragrance from all over the world. The curtains are made of top-quality lake satin, and the horse pulling the cart is the worst. Lao Qi has seen a double set of big-eating horses. How decent is this car to drive? How fast does it have to run?" After admiring for a few words, the master said again: "This car can be worth all the property of a medium-sized family. In the past, it was difficult to watch one in Jinzhou. I don't know what happened these two days. I just ran three cars on the way back!"

When he said this, the other masters agreed, but more or less, everyone had seen a few trash. After calculating this, the total amount was amazing. Then, the number room naturally began to discuss the origin of these carriages.

Those who can ride such a good car must be either rich or noble. What's wrong? These wealthy people ran to Jinzhou like they went to the market. Such a scene has never been heard of before.

Because Liu Heizi was an apprentice who had not yet started his master, he was not too busy in the room. After a long time when the masters came back, he had to play the role of a young man in the restaurant, responsible for adding water and making tea.

After all, the masters had no accurate explanation. Seeing that there was no answer to this kind of thing that had not happened in Jinzhou for many years, it was really uncomfortable for Liu Heizi, who was naturally curious.

After the masters in the room finally got rested and almost lost their feet, Liu Heizi waved to an apprentice who was later than he came. After a few words, he slipped out of the car along the wall.

As soon as he left the car, Liu Heizi ran straight to the city gate. After a while, he saw three carriages that could make a illuminate shadow enter the city.

Looking at the time, it was not long since he came out, so Liu Heizi stopped watching the fun at the city gate and followed the third carriage to the city.

Fortunately, this is in the city. Although the horse pulling the cart is a famous horse, it is not fast. Liu Heizi rushed to the scene so slowly that he could barely keep up.

Liu Heizi followed the carriage all the way to the best Wanfulou Inn in the state. Through the inn, he saw an extremely shocking scene. The yard of the Wanfulou Inn was neatly lined up with the luxurious carriages he had just seen. I was afraid that there were dozens of cars. The weather was sunny today, and the bright sunshine shone on these brightly illuminated carriages. From a distance, it looked bright and bright.

It is hard to see such a good car on weekdays. At this time, we gathered together and were in such a sky, which made us more and more shocking. After Liu Heizi sucked his mouth and rubbed his eyes, he turned his head to look at the gate of Wanfu Tower. Among the few people who were welcoming guests at the inn, the one who attracted his attention the most was the old man with deep eyes and high noses.

Poor Liu Heizi has never been able to go to the army, so he can't travel far. Speaking of which, it's been four years since Wanshing Train. In fact, he has been staying in Jinzhou City. This place is small and is not as good as a big city like Yangzhou. Therefore, although Liu Heizi heard the masters tell him that he had a lot of strange appearance of Hu people, this is the first time he saw the real person.

Well, that's right, the masters are right. These Hu Ke really have deep eyes, tall noses, and two kinds of people. I don't know how they grow up? In addition to their appearance, there is another thing that Persian Hu Guoya is the same as the masters said. He is a rich man. Looking at his outfit, he won't mention what he is wearing. The jewelry on his waist is so stunning. Just the little comb that specializes in cooking beards on his neck, it looks golden and bright, and it's pure gold. Mom! This little comb must be at least two taels. Just such a small object on him is worth half a possession of ordinary people.

It seems that what the masters say on weekdays is true. These Hu Gu all have a pair of noses that are more sensible than dogs, and can only smell the smell of gold and jewelry. Otherwise, how could their noses be so big?

While Liu Heizi was thinking about it, more and more people were gathering around the street to watch the fun. These people were marching at the row of dazzling carriages in the inn, and pointed at Durach, wondering curiously why there were people who looked so good, and why was his nose so high?

"A group of local buns, I don't even know the nose of this special treasure." Listening to the discussions around me, Liu Heizi felt a sense of superiority in his heart. At this moment, the old Hu guest seemed to be impatient and turned to the inn.

Seeing this, a sigh of disappointment sounded from the crowd who had been watching the fun for half a street, which greatly reduced Liu Heizi's interest, who had seen enough, looked up at the time of the day again. After Liu Heizi screamed with a strange "ah", turned around and ran to Wanliu. While running, he suddenly realized his heart and realized, "By the way, that old Hu must be Durah! Isn't this the twenty-sixth? It turns out that these rich and noble customers were invited by that invitation."

Liu Heizi, who understood the whole story and was satisfied with curiosity, was in a very comfortable mood. But it would be different if he didn't drive the horses in the Jinzhou Prefecture.

At this time, Lao Ma was stunned at the famous thorns in front of him in his office. These famous thorns were sent here in a while in the morning, saying that they wanted to visit him tonight or tomorrow.

It is normal for someone to visit this for a horse, but what is abnormal is that all the famous thorns in front of you are mud gold seals. Not to mention anything else, just this thorn itself is worth at least a sum of money, which is enough to reveal the identity of the master of the thorn.

When Ma Biega turned on the famous sect, he was not interested in the owners of these famous sects. As a Jinshi in the Mingjing cadet, he had never had a good impression of businessmen, but not interested in it was one thing, and having to socialize was another thing. After all, the owners of these famous sects were not as good as those small vendors. They were all powerful men in a state with a huge wealth. Behind such merchants, one or two governors were always standing, not to stand, Sima, or even Zhongzhen generals, and so on. There were even more hard relationships that could be linked to the observation envoy and the marching ambassador's office.

Lao Ma could not compare with Yao Rongfu, who had just arrived in Beijing. He was a real person from Shannan Dongdao. He had never moved on this road for decades. He had contacted other prefectures over the years. But now, he could not ignore these connections.

The problem is. So many famous sects who are invited to see you suddenly came. How should we arrange the time? Even if we split him in half, we can't handle it.

After such troubles lasted for a while, Lao Ma then thought of a question: How could these wealthy people from various states suddenly come to Jinzhou together? This was simply unimaginable in the past.

After flirting with the famous sect in his hand for a while, Ma Biejia picked up the thick stack of famous sects and went to Yao Rongfudi's office. After a while, Yao Envoy and Ma Biejia, who were also surprised, were both surprised and confused. They followed the addresses written on the famous sects to Wanfu Tower.

Suddenly, there were such people in the place. As an envoy and the other party, you must take it to heart. Since you don’t understand, then go and take a look!

"Two guests, do you have an invitation? I'm really sorry, this building has been booked by someone since the previous one, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry..." The waiter of Wanfu Building was explaining with a smile on his face, and the servant who followed the two of them had already stepped forward to say a few words to him. When the waiter heard this, he changed his face. "Please, please, the young man, please come here to invite the shopkeeper."

Wanfulou is the best inn in Jinzhou. This place is not cheap. Who can pack it with such a big deal? Or has it been packed since the day before yesterday! Yao and Ma stepped into the inn gate, and what came towards him was the bright and bright black car.

Yao Rongfu looked surprised and withdrew his eyes from the large carriage, turned to look at Ma Biega, "Dongyang, so many wealthy people gathered in Jinzhou. As the chief officials, you and I don't know, and I really realize it later."

Just at this moment, the shopkeeper of Wanfu Building hurried over, bowed with a smile on his face, "I don't know that the other party and the envoy are coming to this building. I have no choice but to welcome you. I'm sorry!"

"Forget it", at this time, it was a question of lower status. Ma Dongyang waved his hand and raised his hand to scan the dazzling car. "What's going on?"

"Today there are three guests in this building. These carriages are brought by the guests."

"Cheers?" Ma Dongyang exchanged a surprised look with Yao Rongfu when he heard this. The guest knew that the host could bring these individuals together, so the host... there is no such person in Jinzhou!

Thinking of this, both of them looked terrified, and Ma Dongyang emphasized and asked, "Who is the host of the Yankee?"

"When I say to you, the invitation was signed by Zhang Keguan from the capital, Zhou Keguan from Xiangzhou, and another one was Hu Kedulah from Yangzhou."

"Xiangzhou? Is the surname Zhou?" Ma Dongyang pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then asked, "Is that guest named Zhou Jun?"

"That's right".

"Has he arrived in Xiangzhou?" Ma Dongyang was stunned and turned sideways to explain to Yao Rongfu: "I don't know when I came late. Zhou Jun is the largest lacquerware merchant in Xiangzhou, which is rich enough to rival the country. Especially in recent years, the popularity has become more popular. Not to mention the original Taoism, even if you look at the entire Tang Dynasty, you are also a first-class numeric merchant."

"Yeah", Yao Rongfu nodded after hearing this, and said nothing.

"Who is Durah?"

"This Hu Ke from Yangzhou is the leader of the Hu people in Yangzhou." Before Ma Dongyang asked again, the shopkeeper had already continued: "But the young man doesn't know what Mr. Zhang Liang's origin is, he only knows that he comes from the imperial capital Chang'an."

"The leader of the Hu merchants!" When Yao Rongfu heard the name of Durah, his face changed. He was not unaware of his identity. Yangzhou maritime merchants are richest in the world. He had been lingering in the imperial city for a long time. He also knew clearly that these Hu merchants used to be the former deposed prince, and the person who was in charge of them was directly under the Inner Palace and the Ministry of Civil War. Once the business reached this point, people like Durah could no longer be simply regarded as merchants. Who knows who is standing behind them now?

Thinking about the person surnamed Zhang from the capital, Yao Rongfu suddenly looked shocked. It seemed that this trip was really right. Although he was not sure what the Zhang surname was for, the fact that he could treat him together with Zhou Jun and Durach was enough to show that he was very small.

The Ma Dongyang that Yao Rongfu thought of was no exception. His face became more and more serious. "What are you doing inside now?"

"The guests are now chatting in the lobby."

Upon hearing this, Ma Dongyang glanced at Yao Rongfu and ordered the shopkeeper: "Take us in and have a look."

As the shopkeeper walked in, Yao Rongfu, who had never spoken out, asked casually: "Shopkeeper, you just said that the invitation was signed by these three people, what does this mean?"

"Return to the words of Lord Envoy", the shopkeeper who led the way slowed down and explained softly with a smile: "These three people were treating guests on the spot, but in fact, the host of the invitation was Lord Tang, the governor of the State Yasi."

"Tang Cheng?" Added all the surprises just now and didn't resist the words said by the shopkeeper. Hearing this, although the two of them could still remain calm, the shock in their eyes could not be hidden from others.

Shocked, indeed shocked! It turned out to be Tang Cheng! With his little Jinzhou Sitian Cao Juesi, it was surprising enough to meet people like Durah, and he could even use their place to treat him...

The shopkeeper didn't understand why he turned black after saying a word, and Yao Jun's face was extremely solemn. Although he didn't understand, he was always good at watching the style of the waiter and the beauty of the people was tactful and didn't say anything else, and led the two to the hall silently.

This is the largest main hall in Wanfu Building. At this time, the main hall is decorated with magnificent flowers, from the lichens covered to the top celadon tea sets in Yue Kiln. Then to the brand new silk satin wardrobe worn by people who travel through the ground, it can be seen that Wanfu Building today is really exerting all the energy to eat.

Contrary to the decoration of the hall are the luxurious rich people inside. The monoseluo, which is gold-sized in a row, has become the norm at this time. The waist is fitted with the ground and the hand is on the door. As soon as Yao and Ma feel a strong pearly aura coming to their faces, it makes Yao Jun suddenly seem to have returned to the Imperial Capital City. The rich scene in front of him can only be seen in the Chang'an Palace in the past. In a remote place like Jinzhou, it is truly rare to see it in a century!

"No need to sing the name. Let's go in by ourselves." He stopped the shopkeeper who was about to sing the name loudly. Yao Rongfu stepped into the hall, followed by Ma Dongyang. At this time, the guests in the hall, which had as many as dozens of people, were having tea and greetings at will, and the chaos in the coming and going, so no one cared about them.

After entering the hall, Yao Ma and his wife found an inconspicuous corner of the hall and sat down. They were eating tea while listening to the surroundings.

"Lao Qian, since you left Xiangzhou that day, four years have passed away. Your old Qian has become younger and younger. Looking at your red face, you must have made a lot of money in the past two years of floor varnish business."

"Brother Wu is not the same," the old Qian laughed and said, "Brother, you are close to Jinzhou, so let me tell you a little bit about the news. What does this invitation mean today?"

"If I know, even if I don't tell others, I can't tell you, brother," the merchant surnamed Wu turned the bloodstone ring on his finger and said, "I have been thinking about it all the way since I received the invitation, but after thinking about it, I have to come to the name Durah, the leader of Haihu merchants in Yangzhou. What is that position? If you can join him, it will be amazing if you just miss a little in your hands! The same is true for your brother. Who dares not to sell the face of the Zhou Dangjia in the south of the mountain? "

"Yes," Lao Qian nodded, "These two are the top figures among our Tang Dynasty merchants. How did they get together? If they get together to treat them, they don't talk about Yangzhou. No matter how they choose a place, they must be Daocheng. How could it be this remote Jinzhou? And Zhang Liang on the invitation, who is the origin of him?"

"I haven't heard of it, but when the invitation was signed by the three people, Zhang Liang was ranked first. Just this one, brother, think about it." At this point, the merchant surnamed Wu was obviously excited, "Brother, look at the people in this hall. This situation is just for this trip. It's not unfair to run this time! Brother, I have a premonition, I'm afraid there will be a big business this time."

Listening to the two of them, Yao Rongfu and Ma Dongyang exchanged a glance silently. Just then, four people came into the open hall door.

As soon as the four of them came in, almost half of the people in the main hall stood up and bowed and said, "Hello, the Zhou family."

"Okay, okay", Zhou Jun clasped his fists to everyone and returned the salute, following the other three people to the table set up in front of the main hall. Although he had never seen a real person, everyone in the hall knew that the old Hu Ke must be Durah.

Overseas trade has the greatest profit and a large amount of foodies. It is the most outstanding industry among merchants, not to mention that Du Lach is the leader of the Hu people and sea merchants who dominate overseas trade. Now that he can see this legendary figure in the Tang Dynasty merchant business with his own eyes, the guests in the hall were a little excited for a moment, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became more and more enthusiastic.

At this time, Yao Rongfu and Ma Dongyang both focused on one person.

Tang Cheng, it is indeed Tang Cheng!

Seeing Tang Cheng laughing and whispering to Zhou Jun and others while walking, and then seeing his natural and casual patting Durah's shoulder, Yao Rongfu's heart skipped a beat, and Ma Barbara's eyes suddenly shrank.

At this time, the guests in the hall also noticed Tang Cheng and Zhang Liang walking between Zhou Jun and Durah. Among these two people, Tang Cheng, who is less than twenty, is even more eye-catching. Who is he? He can stand shoulder to shoulder with Durah and Zhou Jun at such a young age?

The four of them arrived at the previous plan and decided to stop. After talking and giving in a few words, Zhou Jun both reached out and invited Tang Cheng to speak. Seeing that Durah and the other two were so polite to Tang Cheng, they saw that Tang Chengshi the first of the four people walked forward. The guests in the hall sighed and the hall was in an uproar.
