Zhao Ziliang was a little surprised when he saw that these soldiers actually knew this half of the troop transfer talisman, it seemed that the Tang army was still very good at popularizing some knowledge in the army.

Ignoring these soldiers kneeling and begging for mercy, Zhao Ziliang raised his right foot and put it on the bench, propped his right hand on his knee and pointed at the dozen soldiers who were kneeling on the ground begging for mercy and said, "What is this for?" Gambling money, count me in, come and come, come again, what, don't you give face? Believe it or not, General Ben ordered to cut off the heads of all of you? ”

"Huh?" The soldiers screamed in fright, and they stood up together, took out all the money, and put it on the table.

Zhao Ziliang was very happy to see this, and picked up the porcelain bowl containing the dice while shaking it and said with a smile: "Okay, bet, bet!" ”

The soldiers were a little hesitant, and they all looked at the big man who was the dealer just now, the big man looked at Zhao Ziliang, and sweat kept breaking out on his forehead, he thought about whether he wanted to deliberately lose to Zhao Ziliang, but the double odds promised by Zhao Ziliang just now made his greedy heart flourish, but he quickly woke up in his heart, this is the right guard general, the boss of his boss, the bosses of his bosses are all subordinates of this one, and if he wins this money, do you have a life to spend?

Thinking of this, Dahan saw that all the copper coins piled in front of him were pushed to the "single" area, and the other dozen or so soldiers saw this, and all of them pushed all their copper coins to the "single" area, they had not gambled with Zhao Ziliang, they did not know his number, nor did they understand his gambling nature, in this case, if they wanted to win, they had to bet with the most skilled gambling Han.

"It's all down? Is that going to be opened? Zhao Ziliang looked at all the soldiers around the gambling table and said with a smile.

Some of the soldiers didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and at this time, one of them urged loudly: "Hurry up, drive quickly, what are you rubbing?" ”

Zhao Ziliang was stunned for a moment, looked at the soldier who was talking, and said with a smile: "Okay, as the saying goes, there are no fathers and sons in casinos, let alone bosses?" It seems that you, a little soldier, have the essence of gambling and have a future! This one. If you win, it's okay, I don't care about you, but if you lose, run two laps along Chang'an City every morning, and run one less lap after three months, and you will be beheaded by someone! ”

The soldier was so frightened that his face was as pale as earth, and he hurriedly folded his hands and prayed: "Mantian God and Buddha, Sanqing Daozun, please bless me to win this handful, and the small characters will definitely give you incense and kowtow."

Everyone looked at each other. This person's gambling is too big, this is not as simple as addiction, I'm afraid that he has gone crazy.

"So-and-so is about to open, and they are all staring at it carefully!" Zhao Ziliang looked at everyone and said, after speaking, his right hand was slowly lifted and moved upward, and three dice were exposed in the porcelain bowl.

"Four, four, six, double! Hahaha, I'm sorry, this one won! Zhao Ziliang laughed and gathered all the copper coins on the table together. It's almost two-fold.

The previous dealer hurriedly said: "If the villain loses, all the money will naturally go to the general!" The general's luck is so good! ”

All the soldiers reacted and all agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, the general's luck is really good!" ”

Zhao Ziliang heard this. His face changed suddenly, and he said coldly: "What? Just want to get away with it? ”

"Ah-don't dare, villains and others know that they have made mistakes, and they are willing to be punished!" The soldiers were terrified and terrified.

"Humph!" Zhao Ziliang looked at these soldiers and snorted coldly. Chen Qing instructed the soldiers who joined the army in the later records: "Write down the names and numbers of these soldiers!" ”

"No!" Chen Qing agreed, and immediately took out pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from his bag, spread them on the table, and asked the names and numbers of the soldiers. And record them one by one.

Zhao Ziliang shouted again: "Gao Huaide, I don't want today's incident to reach the ears of other generals and soldiers, so that they can be prepared, I want to see the most real situation of the soldiers belonging to the left Jin Wuwei and the right guard in the process of duty, including you, no matter who leaks the news below, as long as he is found out, he will wait to go home and farm!" Do you understand everything? ”

Several generals, left and right street envoys, Changshi and Records all immediately agreed: "No! ”

Zhao Ziliang said to more than a dozen soldiers kneeling on the ground: "You don't go to patrol during the patrol duty, but gather people here to gamble, it stands to reason that the general will punish you heavily, but this is not entirely your fault, it has to do with the lax control of your superiors and the poor supervision of the right guard generals, now you all wear armor, take your weapons, and line up a neat line for the general to patrol, and then let the general find out that you have done things that have nothing to do with duty during the duty period, and will not be spared!" Besides, if one of you dares to speak out about today's events, and leaks the news, so that the other patrol soldiers are prepared, you will be executed for the crime of leaking military information, do you hear? ”

"Yes, yes, villains will never say a word!" All the soldiers trembled and agreed in unison.

A few minutes later, Zhao Ziliang and others watched on the side of the street as more than a dozen soldiers lined up in a long and neat line under the leadership of the strong man Shi Chang and walked along the patrol.

"Let's go, let's go to West Market!" Zhao Ziliang said and walked towards the West Market across Jinchun Street, behind him Gao Huaide, Jia Mingyuan and others looked at each other, all of them looked worried, only Chen Qing did not react, he and Gong Ren were transferred by Zhao Ziliang from the left prison guard to the left Jinwuwei two days ago, and they had just taken over the official business, and Zhao Ziliang couldn't get him to clean up. And Yang Yuhuan was curious and excited, this was the first time she had seen how people in the yamen handled official business, and it was also the first time she saw Zhao Ziliang actually make a private visit, which made her full of curiosity.

The West Market is relatively close to the common people, and the goods and goods here are much cheaper than the things in the East Market, and the East Market is a place of consumption exclusive to the aristocracy and the upper class of Chang'an, and the goods sold are basically luxury goods.

In the West Market, you can see all kinds of Hu people, people of all colors, and even white people in the West and black people in Africa can be seen selling goods in horse-drawn carts or mules and horses.

The West Market, like the East Market, is divided into nine areas according to the types of goods and commodities traded, there is a release pond in the northwest corner of the North Left District, a small river connects the release pond from northwest to southeast through the West Market, and the horse shops, wheat bran shops, saddle stirrup shops, mill shops and charcoal shops are distributed in between, and there is also a merchant residential area; In the northern central district, there are Persian Hu merchants' residences, as well as shops run by Hu merchants, jewelry shops, and almost all foreign merchants are concentrated in this area to do business, and there are Chang Ping positions in the south of the area; There is also a place where businessmen live in Beiyou District, where there are fruit shops, pepper shoot shops, grocery stores, leather goods stores, Wang Huishi shops, money sellers, and medicine sellers; There are more than a dozen restaurants and restaurants in Zhongzuo District, most of the merchants or merchants who come to buy things in the West Market eat and drink here, there are restaurants and wine shops with lower consumption, and there are also wine shops that serve the Hu people, in addition to slaughtering shops, meat shops, grain shops, white flour shops, rice shops, japonica rice shops and so on; In the middle area of the West Market is the location of the Municipal Bureau, where some garment shops and wardrobe shops are also located, and the Municipal Office is the yamen specializing in the management of the West Market; In the middle and right areas, there are boot rows, mantle rows, scale rows, bow sac bowstring rows, gold banks, mat hat shops, pig iron shops, knife and axe shops; There are silk shops, silk shops, silk coat shops, big silk shops, silk shops, silk shops, silk shops, cloth shops, dyeing shops, and a commercial and residential area by the street in the south left district; In the north of the Nanzhong District, there are the Leveling Bureau, the Small Silk Shop, the New Silk Shop, the Small Color Shop, the Charcoal Burning Shop, the Exposed Cloth Line and the Oil Indigo Shop; In the Nanyou District, there are pawn shops, mail shops, drinking pharmacists, medicine shops, pen shops, ink shops, fish shops, fortune shops, etc., all in all, everything can be bought here.

There are two streets in the east-west and north-south directions in the west city, a total of four streets, and the street patrol is also under the control of Zuo Jinwuwei, although there is a city bureau and a peace permit management office, there are few public security problems, but the necessary street patrol is also indispensable.

Zhao Ziliang This is the first time to visit the West Market, his purpose is not to go shopping and buy things, but to inspect the patrol situation of the Zuo Jinwu guards here, but Yang Yuhuan is different, women want to buy beautiful things and things they like when they see them, but it is obvious that in her identity, she must be the master who does not bring money, no way, Zhao Ziliang can only pay out of his pocket, fortunately, he knows that he must bring some money with him before going out, so as not to have no food at noon.

just walked around two or three areas, and among the people in this group, including Zhao Ziliang, everyone carried two bags of things, all of which were bought by Yang Yuhuan, and these generals and officials all became Yang Yuhuan's followers.

Zhao Ziliang saw that it was not a way to go on like this, these people specially carried things for Yang Yuhuan, but they came here to secretly inspect the work of the soldiers on duty, and they couldn't specifically carry things for Yang Yuhuan, so Zhao Ziliang asked Chen Qing to go to the gate north of the West Market to let Yang Yuhuan's groom drive the carriage over and load all the things she bought into the carriage.

In order to protect Yang Yuhuan's safety, Zhao Ziliang had to let Bai Xiaode take two people to follow her closely, and his main focus was on patrolling the soldiers.

It wasn't until noon that Zhao Ziliang and others finally walked around the entire West Market, and walked through every inch of land, and the Zuo Jinwu guards on duty here were basically leaning against the wall at the traffic intersection and chatting, and there was no team of soldiers patrolling, and even some of the soap officials in charge of the West Market of the City Bureau were lazy with sticks, or sitting in the wine shop and drinking, or drinking tea and listening to books in the teahouse.

Along the way, Zhao Ziliang had already gotten used to it, and he was not angry, but the faces of the other generals and officials were very ugly.

"It's not early, the restaurant is nearby, it's the first time to visit the West Market, I'll have a meal in the West Market today, let's go together! Miss Yang, if you don't dislike some vulgarity, let's go together, a treat."

"Okay, the slave family also wants to taste the taste of the food in this West Market" Yang Yuhuan agreed without hesitation, she bought a lot of things today, and she was happy in her heart.

Eating outside, this is the first time in Yang Yuhuan's life, even if she is not married to Li Mao, she is also a lady, and she has never eaten in a restaurant outside, Zhao Ziliang's invitation made her heart pound and eager to try, and she was looking forward to the food in the restaurant.
