However, since Qi Le wrote a letter and asked him to go to the grassland king to meet him, he would naturally arrange it for her to come to her, and there should be a will in the capital in the near future.

Song Chongjin didn't have much time left, so he let out the rumors, so that the waiting businessmen could start to prepare.

Those merchants had been preparing privately for the New Year, and during this time, a steady stream of goods and merchants from all over the country came to Chicheng County after the journey was better.

Nowadays, Chicheng County is more lively than ever, the streets are full of caravans, speaking different accents from the south and the north, everyone has a smile on their faces, and when they see familiar people, they also shout hello to each other.

There are also merchants from the Western Regions who heard the news, and for a while, in addition to the dialects of Tiannan, Haibei and Beibei, there are also the gurgling Western Regions dialect.

In Chicheng County, because of the arrival of caravans from all over the country, many people have been used as brokers in recent years, introducing places to stay and running errands for new caravans.

Now is not yet the time to be busy with farming, and the people of Chicheng County have nothing to do, and the men or older children in the family are all guarding the gate of the city or the market, or the door of the inn, and as long as there is a caravan coming, they will gather around to introduce themselves.

When the caravan first arrived, it was necessary to find a local to introduce the situation, so that I could have a bottom in my heart, and I would naturally be happy to have such a professional broker.

After a few conversations between the two sides, it can basically be negotiated, one side contributes money, and one side contributes, but everyone is happy.

With the help of these brokers, the caravan will soon find a place to live, and it will know where to register, so that it will not be deceived if it does not run the wrong way.

These brokers, after a busy day's work, are lucky, meet those who are generous, give some rewards, and can almost earn enough for the family to chew for a month.

The ladies of Chicheng County are also busy, and so many people, even the mother-in-law who washes clothes or does rough and short-term work for others, can also earn a lot.

And those small vendors, nothing else, the food stalls are blooming all over the place, and snacks with a little name can be found here all over the country.

The taste may not be as authentic as the local area, but for these merchants who are far away from home, it is already very satisfying.

Coupled with the newly appointed county magistrate, the first thing to do when he took over was to build an inspector's office, and he also had to hire people to do the work.

As soon as the people of Chicheng County heard that this was an inspection mansion built for Lord Song, who didn't think of his goodness, if it weren't for the credit of him and his wife, where would the people of Chicheng County live such a good life?

For a time, not only the strong laborers of the family came to help, but also the women who came to help cook and do some odd jobs.

And who wouldn't be happy to do this, not only to cover dinner, but also to pay wages and offset part of the forced labor?

Song Chongjin is still working in the county office for the time being, and the new Cui County Commander is working the front line every day to supervise the construction of the inspection office.

During this period of time, Changnan was preparing for the so-called bidding, and the first time he went to the grassland, the caravan he brought with him must be carefully selected and passed by strict review.

There are not a hundred or seventy or eighty caravans in this Chicheng County, and it is not easy to screen out suitable caravans from them.

Li Changnan was so busy every day that his feet did not touch the ground, you must know that after the first batch of caravans reviewed the quota, they also had to check their goods and register the quantity by category, these things, after they sold them all the way to the grassland, after returning to Dachu, they had to pay taxes.

How to pay, Song Chongjin has asked the household department and has approved a standard, and everything must be implemented in accordance with this standard.

These things are cumbersome and careful, not only Li Changnan is busy, but his subordinates, as well as Yao Dahe Shi, and Wang Yongzhu's shopkeepers in several shops in Chicheng County, have all been arrested to help.

This is a very important income, and the emperor in the capital is staring at this piece, so it can't go wrong.

And after the New Year, he took his subordinates, saying that he was going to find a new source of goods, and he rushed back when he heard the news.

This time, he followed a lot of people, including an old acquaintance, Zhang Yinbao.

Zhang Yinbao chose the Li family between the Li family and Li Jiushao, so naturally the connection with Li Jiushao and Wang Yongzhu faded.

To be honest, he didn't regret it, he was blinded by the fame and power of the Li family before, although he didn't have a grudge against Li Jiu Shao, but he was dealing with Li Jiu Shao at the beginning, and he was able to have a relationship with the Li family because of Li Jiu Shao.

Later, the Li family and Li Jiu Shao disagreed, but he fell to the side of the Li family, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.

Moreover, even if Li Jiushao was expelled from the house, because of Wang Yongzhu's relationship, he caught up with the queen again and opened his red sleeves to add incense, and he knew that this bet was in the wrong place.

But at that time, he had already boarded the ship of the Li family, and no matter how much he regretted, he could only endure it, seeing that the business of adding fragrance to the red sleeves was getting more and more prosperous, and Li Jiu had the queen's own eyes, and he also got an idle job, and his eyes were red with envy.

I couldn't help but ask myself countless times, if he had stood firmly on the side of Li Jiushao and Wang Yongzhu at the beginning, would he also have a chance to get an official position? It's an idle job, how many businessmen can't get an idle job in their lifetime!

Therefore, after knowing that Li Jiushao and Wang Yongzhu bought the mountains near Qilidun and Yingzigou to grow tea, he was very interested in not annoying people, and quietly introduced new acquisition channels to the Wang brothers, and quietly withdrew from the mountain goods business in Shiqiao Town.

This time, the grassland opened a trade route, and after learning the news, Zhang Yinbao really regretted his intestines.

In the end, he refused to let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, or tentatively acquired some goods, thinking about coming to Chicheng County to see if he could find an opportunity to renew the relationship with Wang Yongzhu and Song Chongjin, not to mention anything else, it would be good to give a place to go to the grassland.

Thinking so, I went all the way north, but I was lucky to encounter the golden pot.

The golden pot can come to this day, although Zhang Yinbao was looking at Wang Yongzhu's face, he also cultivated a lot of golden pots.

Jin Hu was naturally grateful in his heart, and the two talked happily for a while.

Of course, Zhang Yinbao doesn't dare to underestimate the golden pot now, not to mention that the golden pot now has its own caravan, and he is already an extremely sophisticated businessman when he speaks and acts.

is Wang Yongzhu and Song Chongjin behind the golden pot, and he doesn't dare to slack off.

Not only did he not take Joe when he spoke and acted, but he flattered the golden pot a lot.

The golden pot is not stupid, and he soon noticed that the attitude of this silver insurance was a little too much, and he asked someone to inquire.

Zhang Yinbao was waiting for the golden pot to inquire, and the steward who took the golden pot to the Western Regions was entrusted with an important task, and told Zhang Yinbao about the difficulties and regrets on his side, and then revealed a meaning, wanting to get a place to go to the grassland.

Where is the golden pot willing to be contaminated with this matter, but in the end, Zhang Yinbao is kind to him, after thinking about it, he only promised to help Zhang Yinbao bring the words of regret, as for how Wang Yongzhu reacted, he couldn't help it.

Moreover, if Zhang Yinbao is willing, he will be wronged and the caravan can be hung in his name, which can not only increase the strength of his caravan, but if nothing else, when he gets the first batch of qualifications to go to the grassland, Zhang Yinbao can also follow him and earn the first pot of gold.

Zhang Yinbao knew that this was already the greatest sincerity of the golden pot, so naturally he didn't agree.

Why doesn't he lose anything? Even if you can't get the understanding of Wang Yongzhu and Li Changnan at this moment, as long as you have a good relationship with the golden pot, and let more profits to the golden pot at that time, this cooperative relationship will continue, and the broken relationship will be renewed over time.
