The tribe leader was stunned and said, "What, what did you say?...How could you, the high-ranking official of the Ming Dynasty, be so rude?"

Huang Laifu looked at him coldly and said, "If you, a barbarian, dare to make a noise again, just beat me up!"

Governor Yang whispered: "Huang Junmen, isn't it a bit inappropriate to do this? My Heavenly Kingdom treats people with courtesy. If this is spread, will the foreigners in the Great Wall make the joke uneasy?"

Huang Laifu said lightly: "Duke Yang, our Shanxi Town can open a market with the enemy, which is already a great kindness for them. If you still want to make unjust thoughts, it will be in vain."

He said, "Mr. Yang, you must know that the silver that is rewarded is derived from the commercial tax of the city. If every barbarian wants to reward, where do we get so much silver?"

Governor Yang thought about it and made a point. He coughed and said, "Then let's do what Huang Junmen said!"

Only the young master of Taipu Temple looked at him coldly. When he heard Huang Laifu's words, he thought to himself: "It's really a rough man. He refused to even give up the silver for rewards. He really lost all my face in the Ming Dynasty."

What else did the tribe leader want to say? Huang Laifu waved his hand and Xie Qingkui drove them away with a group of soldiers who were like wolves and tigers. This person will also be listed as an unpopular person in the city and will not be allowed to enter the pass and trade in the future.

At this time, the surroundings were filled with Han and Mongolian merchants watching the fun. Only then did they realize that it was the general and the governor who came. For all this, the Han merchants and merchants were just watching the fun.

Although the Mongolian merchants felt a little uncomfortable, no one dared to say anything. Some Mongolian merchants mentioned the issue of rewards after the transaction was completed, but they were rejected by the Ming general of the official market. Yan Dao General had an order, and then the people traded without rewards. Anyway, the mutual market is free and profitable, so there would be no rewards without rewards. Especially after today, they even stopped thinking about rewards.

After some minor storms, Huang Laifu and others continued to inspect some places in the city. Although the market opened shortly after, it was quite impressive. Not to mention various civil goods, it was just horses. Today, more than 500 official horses were traded a day, and the average price of each horse was 7.07 taels of silver. Taipu Temple only reselled more than 200 horses of slightly inferior quality to merchants and civilians, and they could earn a generous price difference between the transfers.

Huang Laifu was secretly jealous. The horse transaction was really a source of wealth. Unfortunately, he returned to Taipu Temple. When the Taipu Temple Shaoqing saw the prosperous and lively city, he would probably get a lot of commercial taxes in a year and did not need to pay any rewards. In this way, the Taipu Temple Shaoqing was more money to pay for Huang Laifu's pocket. When the Taipu Temple Shaoqing was surprised, he was also jealous and his eyes kept turning.

After that, Huang Laifu and others stayed in Shuiquanying Fort for a few days. Every day, they saw endless merchants and people coming and going. The news of the opening of Shanxi Town was free trade, and there was no time limit. For a moment, not to mention that the merchants and people from the Altan tribes rushed to trade, even the rest of the grassland tribes and the merchants from the mainland of the Ming Dynasty came to the scene when they heard the news.

The wool trade that Huang Laifu was concerned about was also underway. After the market opened, the number of merchants from Shuicuenyingbao every day increased. The wool carriages and horses purchased from outside the Great Wall passed through the pass every day, which also brought a large number of tariffs to Huang Laifu.

Due to the demand for wool in Wuzhai Fort, in previous years, many Han merchants came to the grassland and transported trucks of wool back to Wuzhai Fort, but this kind of trade was still a bit sneaky. After the opening of Shanxi Town, the two sides could openly trade, without restrictions, and the number of Han wool merchants operating outside the border increased rapidly.

In the grassland outside the border, the men sheared their flocks, usually starting from early summer. At this time, large-scale shearing scenes appeared on the grassland. Each tribe built large tents, and sheep gathered here from all over the grassland, and grouped into stone pens. The shearing hands dragged a sheep out of the sheep pen and put it down. The shearing hands grabbed the sheep head with their legs, and started to cut it down from the head. The wool was quickly cut off.

In addition to hand-cutting, many Mongolian tribes also use a special scratching of hair. This scratching is made of several thick iron wires more than one foot long. The front of the wire is bent with a hook of nearly a half inch and a sharp tip. The Mongolian herders lie down and tie the sheep's limbs and start scratching from the sheep's calves. Soon, the scratching is filled with thick wool, and then stroke it into the bag one by one. Sometimes they accidentally scratch the sheep's skin, and blood suddenly overflows, and the herdsmen will apply some soil on their hands.

In previous years, the wool cut by various Mongolian tribes was piled up there and rotted. However, since August this year, Han merchants have continued to go out to buy wool. After the opening of Shanxi Town in October, the acquisition of wool has become even more large-scale. Not to mention that many Han merchants have come to various tribes, even among many Mongolian people, many wool dealers have also appeared, and each tribe purchases wool.

In previous years, things that were worthless turned into white silver. Everyone in the Altan tribe, from clan leaders to ordinary herdsmen, was very happy. After getting the money, they came to Shanxi Town to purchase what they needed, and suddenly, the economy became circulated.

Of course, when those Han and Mongolian wool merchants came to purchase wool, they calculated the money according to the wool level, packaged it according to different levels, then gathered it to a certain place, and finally transported it to the pass, forming a intensive procurement outlet and transportation outlet.

As a holy place in the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Mongols of Altan, Guihua City is naturally the best place to concentrate wool. Since Huang Laifu reached a cooperation agreement with Sanniangzi in August, a large number of Shanxi merchants have obtained care and license from Huang Laifu, and are scrambling to open shops in Guihua City. Since the opening of Shanxi Town in September, more Shanxi merchants have flocked to Guihua City, most of which are business operations such as warehouses, camel transportation, grain trading and livestock fur.

For a moment, there were many business names in Guihua City. The city's Danan Street, Dabei Street, Dadong Street, Daxi Street, Dazhaoqian, Xiaozhaoqian, Beimen, Nanchafang and other places had initially formed commercial blocks, with various "guidings", "pinnings" and "brands" swinging with the wind.

This made Sanniangzi and others in the city extremely excited. So many Han merchants came, and they only collected taxes and had a lot of money. After the acquisition of wool from surrounding tribes, most of them gathered in Guihua City. The "Yangqiao Camel Market" had been formed in the south gate of Guihua City. Many cargo warehouses were built here, and a lot of wool gathered here. After some simple processing, they were then transported to Wuzhai Fort, and several packs appeared accordingly.

After October, the weather outside the border became colder day by day, and the grass on both sides of the road became yellow.

The camel bell rang, and a line of camel caravan came here. The camel caravan was not big, with only dozens of peaks, and each camel carries a huge leather bag, needless to say, it contains wool. The leader were three middle-aged people, and the rest were some Han and Mongolian guys. These three middle-aged people seemed to be used to walking outside for many years, and each of them wore old sheepskin coats, and under the fur hood, they were all weather-beaten faces.

Looking at the long road ahead, a guy sighed. After a day, his whole body seemed to be falling apart, and several bosses were still tireless. He couldn't help but say to one person: "Shi Dongjia, I've been walking for a day. Have you gone to the grass slope in front of me for a rest? It doesn't matter if we are cheap, but you, don't be tired of your body!"

The middle-aged man named Shi Dong's family was tall, with long hands and long legs, and a bronze face. He was the oldest of the three leaders. Hearing this, he said, "Don't worry, go to Zhenlu Fort in front to rest. In this way, we can go more ways and arrive at Wuzhai Fort as soon as possible."

Seeing everyone's expressions, he sighed and said, "The owner is urging me to the point of being urged. Our Jishengtang is just starting to start, and it is small and profitable. If the goods cannot be delivered on time and there is no owner to come to ask for the goods, don't think about having a business."

Another person said: "Brother Shi said that there are several camel teams from Guihua City to Wuzhai Fort, all of them are rich. Shuangxingde has 700 camel peaks, Yuandekui has 500 peaks, Tianjude has 400 peaks, even Tianxingheng has 300 peaks, and our Jishengtang has less than 100 peaks. If the goods entrusted by the cargo owner arrive on time, they can only wait to close the door."

Another person said: "What the two brothers said is that the exchange market is just beginning. As long as we survive this level, our Jishengtang will only become more and more prosperous in the future!"

These three middle-aged people are Wang Xiangqing from Taigu County, Shi University and Zhang Jie from Qi County. Among the three, Shi University is the longest year. Because Huang Laifu cooperated with San Niangzi, merchants purchased a large amount of wool and transported the wool from outside the border to Wuzhai Fort, a large number of camel caravans were transported. Seeing this business opportunity, in just two months, several camel caravans, Shi University, Wang Xiangqing and Zhang Jie had appeared in just two months. Seeing all this, the three of them were attracted to build this Jishengtang camel caravan. However, they were not big, and so far, there were dozens of camel peaks.

However, there are many merchants who go out to buy wool. Although they have little capital, their camel caravan's business is still good. They also know that the camel caravan is small and cannot compete with other camel caravans. They can only make up for it with diligence. Even Shi University, Wang Xiangqing and Zhang Jie are the owners, and they must accompany each time they ship goods.

Moreover, Shi University is also a smart person. Even if the barter volume is not large every time, he will try his best to trade fairly and provide considerate service, so he is very pleased by the owner. Many wool merchants entrusted the goods to them for transportation. In Shi University's plan, his clerks would live in the naturalized city in the future. After they learned Mongolian language, they formed several teams to sell goods to various tribes in the grassland. If the goods were sold in summer, they could be replaced by sheep and horses. If the goods were sold in winter, they could be replaced by skins. If this continues, Ji Shengtang will develop bigger and bigger. Wang Xiangqing and Zhang Jie are also very supportive of Shi University's plan.

After everyone cheered each other up, Shi Dao said: "Everyone, let's tighten up. After another hour, we can go to Zhenlu Fort. Then we can have a good rest."

Wang Xiangqing and Zhang Jie also said, "Let's go, work harder, everyone work harder!"

The camel bell rang, and the camel caravan went forward again.

Shi University is still ahead, although extremely tired, her eyes are still firm.

Of course he didn't know that "Jishentang" was later renamed, and it was the famous "Dashengkui".

In the original history, when the Dashengkui Company was in its peak, there were 6,000 employees and nearly 20,000 camels in the caravan, almost monopolizing the Mongolian pastoral market. Most of the Mongolian princes and nobles and herdsmen were its debtors. The company distributed dividends once every three years, and when the Shengsheng was in its share could reach more than 10,000 silver taels.

At its peak, it established branches, semicolons and bankers in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Hunan, Hubei, Zhejiang, Guang, Gan and Fujian provinces and cities, and was known as the "gathering of strange goods from the twenty-two provinces". It also opened a tea road with the activity areas including the four major Khalkha areas, Kobdo, Ulyasutai, Kulun, Chaktu, Inner Mongolia League Banners, Kuqa, Ili and Moscow, Russia. In addition, it also has business dealings with international merchants such as France, Germany, and Britain. Its capital is very strong, and it is said that it can use 50 taels of silver ingots to pave a road from Kulun to Beijing.

It turns out that in history, Dashengkui flourished in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, but due to the arrival of Huang Laifu, history changed. Dashengkui's predecessor Jishengtang appeared in advance, and it will be more brilliant than the original history. It will not only intervene in the entire Asian region, but also extend its tentacles to the European market. The clerks among them can answer with all kinds of people in Mongolian, Kazakh, Uyghur, Russian, Latin.

Of course, Shi University and others now do not understand that their "Jishentang" will achieve such a success in the future. After they finally transported the wool to Wuzhaibao on the delivery date, they each breathed a sigh of relief and were busy with their own affairs.

After being accepted by the owner, bags of wool were first sent to the Wuzhaibao wool washing factory. With a strong smell of sheep, the original wool was treated with grease, and then sent to the Wuzhaibao wool strip factory to make wool strips. Then, the wool strips were sent to the spinning workshop. Then countless female workers weave them into various wool fabric products. Of course, some wool cannot knit clothes, they only make some carpets and blankets.

After all kinds of wool clothes and wool products are formed, finally, the packaging market is labeled with the "Wuzhaibao" and it can be shipped. Next to the Wuzhaibao Wool Spinning Factory are rows of stores, and buyers gathered in various places are here to select and inspect the goods. Soon, these products will be shipped to various places and become one of the best-selling troops of Wuzhaibao products.

After several years of development, Wuzhaibao Wool Spinning Factory has formed a one-stop chain service such as purchase, transportation, and sales. It has its own raw materials and product outlets in the military fort counties around Wuzhaibao, and even far away. Officials and wealthy businessmen from all over the Ming Dynasty were also proud of using various products produced by Wuzhaibao Wool Spinning Factory, which also brought Huang Laifu a lot of money.

The wool trade between Shanxi Town and Altan's outside the Frontier also made the two sides closer, and both sides could be said to be mutually beneficial and mutually beneficial, forming a win-win situation. Starting from late August of the 22nd year of Wanli, from Guihua City to Wuzhai Fort, the camel bells were ringing day and night every day, and the grand occasion was unprecedented.
