Chapter 69: The Human World in the Western Regions
But although there are many slaves and maids in Chang'an City, there are slaves everywhere in the eyes, which is absolutely none. However, Li Chengqian ate beef tenderloin, but he was choked by Anu's words and had no appetite at all.
"Wuhan actually has such a merchant gang who has lost their conscience?"
"I don't dare to act in China, but now that the Western Army is winning every victory, I am ready to show my strength in the Western Regions."
Anu is not a brainless little maidservant, she is smart, and she has a cleverness that is rare for ordinary people. When I was young, I followed Zhang De, and of course I also had insight.
What's more, as a maidservant, she can see Xue Jieyu in the forbidden garden in the name of "visiting relatives". In the name of the exchange of porcelain-making skills, he went to talk to Princess Changle in the Dongguan kiln. It is the name of the market, there is a Wu girl in front of the lead, there is no arithmetic, there is always a small family.
"It's really surprising that Wuhan and the Western Regions, thousands of miles away, are closely related."
Li Chengqian was full of emotion, and when a thing is explored in series from different angles, it becomes a study.
Originally, it was rare for the warm male prince to pretend to be a member of the Standing Committee of the "Keyboard Politburo" and analyze various situations, so that his sister and younger brothers were ashamed of themselves. However, the younger brothers are all "come and come, dry this cup and three cups", "eat and eat, you're welcome, you can eat hard"......
It's all maggots in a pit, what kind of snow white and pure.
The merchants were naturally carnival, whether it was Chang'an, Liangzhou, or Dunhuang. The intuitive benefit does not lie in how cash crops are realized, nor in how food crops are stored, but in the legal and reasonable concentration of a large amount of labor.
If you gather it, you can do great things.
It's just how to concentrate and what happens in the process of concentration, but we don't know.
In fact, Wuhan did not have a merchant gang that "lost its conscience" in the mouth of the prince, and these merchant gangs who wandered to Wuhan were often for the "same dream", and then came together.
It's just that I just happened to find that starting from Wuhan, going to Chang'an, and then going to the Silk Road, you can realize the "same dream".
The merchant gang, horse team, and dart game from Wuhan, on the whole, just want to achieve a small goal. For example, make it 100 million dollars first.
100 million money, when the colleagues in Hezhong and even Persia heard this, they immediately showed a disdainful smile. In their eyes, why don't these Tang Dynasty brothers have any momentum at all?
After the Turkic tent withdrew from Sanmi Mountain, the Persians in Bakhana and Tsepa heard a news from their counterparts in the Tang Dynasty: Tulun was short of high-quality labor.
So the Persians, while returning home to plunder the untouchables, asked their enemies to buy slaves.
Originally, the Persians already felt that they were lacking in virtue enough, but across the Persian Gulf, the cattle on the opposite side found out that the Persian boss had placed a slave order, and immediately got more than 20,000 black slaves.
Moreover, they are more than 20,000 black slaves who did not die after castration, plus more than 20,000 white slaves made up by the Persians themselves, and about 50,000 huge slave trades, which have stepped onto the stage of history.
What the merchants of the Tang Dynasty pondered was not to stuff 50,000 slaves into the Tulun moraine, but to believe that in the next few years, the northern and southern kings of the Tulun moraine would hunt in Kangju.
If it weren't for the fact that this sudden strange trade was too cruel, Lao Zhang, who was tossing in Wuhan, almost named this commercial activity in the Western Regions for 16 years of Zhenguan "Singles' Day". After all, the cattle on both sides of the Persian Gulf really chopped up the stick in the crotch of the slave's pants, not just the broken eggs......
The carnival of Persian merchants is morbid, but an empire will always have a few people of insight. Although at this moment, in addition to the old rival "Rome" is still tossing, the west and south of the empire are suffering from new challenges. At this time, the carnival covered the eastern part of the empire, and the fierce Turks had left their lair, and the horses' hooves had stepped on the border of northeastern Persia.
These Persian wise men saw that the Tang Dynasty abolished the Lu script in the Western Regions, and merchants generally began to adopt somewhat strange Chinese characters. There is even a very strange alphabet from the book "The Original Book of Sound Training". And this book, which used a lot of expensive paper to print, is so popular that it is not at all something that Lu Wen can compete with.
Because of the practical needs of survival and survival, the remnants of the Western Regions who were attached to the sturdy body of the Tang Army, as well as those illiterate people in the Eastern Regions who came to the Western Regions with the camel caravan, couldn't help but learn as many "alphabets" as possible in the bazaar or city.
Then through these crappy tones, the road to making a living in the Western Regions began.
In Tulun Moraine, it is not uncommon to see the fangs of Jing Chu and a local Hu girl here who depend on each other or "love each other". It has become another melting pot like Hanyang Jiangxia, full of personality when you go in, but after precipitation, it is much the same.
The Persians watched the Western Turks flow into the river in silence, and they also quietly watched an inexplicable "preaching army" appear in Doljan. A small state on the border of Persia, the king of this small state, is thinking about whether to follow a strange Taoist priest from the east to say, the lid of the last can seems to have "another can", there is no time limit for this exchange.
It is not uncommon for the right-hand man of the Tubang Tuwang to suddenly change, and he ran to participate in the symposium on "how to pay homage to the Taihao Emperor elegantly" with the title of "Dharma Master".
This is like those barbarian tribal leaders who did not go to the "Battle Dragon Platform" to see miracles were killed, and everyone labeled his herdsmen as "ghost people", which is also very logical and common sense.
No matter how the broad masses of the people in the Western Regions, Hezhong, and even Persia enjoy the construction of spiritual civilization, for Cheng Chubi, the governor of the southern region, he now has to think about a question, that is: In this world, there is no Nanwu civil engineering Buddha.
In winter, Cheng Chubi was confronting the Shule people, digging pits and laying foundations to build cities.
In the spring, Cheng Chubi was confronting the Shule people, digging pits and laying foundations to build the city.
Summer is coming, and Cheng Chubi is still confronting the Shule people, still digging pits and laying foundations to build the city.
There were several egregious incidents of looting of grain in the city of Shule, which caused a commotion as well as a rebellion.
The woman who drilled the dog hole and ran outside the city to tell people that "she sells her art but not her body" has changed from a miscellaneous beard to a stuffed species. After the summer, the walled city of the transaction can no longer distinguish whether it is a miscellaneous hu or a plugged species, but after all, the comer does not refuse. As a "Confucian merchant" with noble moral sentiments, he naturally came to appreciate art rather than carcass.
As for why the concept of "Confucian businessmen" suddenly appeared, anyway, the party member who carried a copy of "The Original Book of Music Training" in Nan's arms also called himself so.
"After several batches of reinforcements from Xishule were intercepted and killed, they no longer rescued the royal city of Shule. Now that spring ploughing has passed, the city does not dare to waste a single grain. ”
An Bo originally thought that "a soldier who surrenders without a fight" was just a show of muscles, but he never expected that he could actually go hungry. However, he heard his Shangguan Nandu Lieutenant Cheng Chubi complain, in case the Shule people start to eat people, won't they be able to survive?
An Dalang's three views were washed again at that moment.
