Jiang Liuyi sat in the carriage with his legs spread apart, leaning on his thigh with one hand and pulling the collar with the other, revealing a small piece of flesh on his chest.
"Mom...bah!" He couldn't help but say a saying. After cursing, he still felt that it was not satisfying enough, so he raised his hand and pounded the carriage hard.
"Bang bang bang!" After hitting three times, he shouted: "Hurry up! Hurry up! Catch them!"
The coachman was about to cry without tears, so fast enough! But he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to raise his whip high, whip his horse's butt "slap", and shouted a few times: "Ga!Ga!" to show that he really did his best.
Wu Yang, who was beside him, smiled softly, quickly served hot tea, and Xiaoyi lowered his head and said, "Please use tea for your son."
"Hmph!" Jiang Liuyi took the teacup and complained: "It's all your fault. I'll delay you so much time. When I see Chen Kang and the others later, you can explain it to me."
How can I blame me...
Wu Yang replied with a smile: "Today, these Xu Shichens have allowed the young man to truly see the young master's official skills. The young master said a few words and frowns and moved, which made the Ningling County Master both shocked and frightened, and made him helpless. Even if he saw the cabinet minister of the current dynasty, he might not be like this."
He gave a thumbs up, as if he didn't think it was flattering enough, and said exaggeratedly: "Young Master is so smart, really so smart!"
What a person Jiang Liuyu is
Haha, the personality of being arrogant when you get power seems obvious at this moment.
He was still a little angry, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but straighten his back, smiled and shook his head, and said, "That's natural. With my master's ability, I can't handle a small county magistrate."
He said proudly: "However, you have heard about his brothers who are doing mutual trading in Chamdo. What do you think about this?"
Jiang Liuqi turned his head slightly and looked at Wu Yang.
Wu Yang was shocked. The Ningling County Master just mentioned it casually, and the young master actually cared about it.
What Jiang Liuyan cared about was the business that the magistrate of Ningling was doing in Chamdo, but Wuyang thought that Jiang Liuyan looked down on the magistrate of Ningling who was doing business in the clan. What the two thoughts were really different and completely different.
Jiang Liuyu pursed his lips and said, "I heard that all the merchants in Chamdo have made a lot of money."
As he said that, he touched his lips and thought about it himself.
Speaking of Chamdo, we need to start with the tea and horse market. This is a bit long, so please savor it slowly.
The so-called tea-horse market flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties and flourished in the Ming Dynasty.
Its meaning is a commercial channel among civilian countries that exists in the southwest and northwest regions of the Ming Dynasty, with horse gangs as the main means of transportation.
The ancient tea and horse road mentioned today is the tea and horse market at that time.
The tea-horse trade is divided into two routes: Sichuan-Tibet, Yunnan-Tibet, and Yunnan-Tibet, connecting Sichuan-Yun-Tibet, extending into Bhutan, Nepal, and India (this is the ancient tea-horse trail in Yunnan-Yun), and ending at the Red Sea coast of West Asia and West Africa.
There are three main routes for the ancient tea-horse road: the Qinghai-Tibet Line (Tang-Tibet Ancient Road), the Yunnan-Tibet Line and the Sichuan-Tibet Line. Among these three ancient tea-horse roads, the Qinghai-Tibet Line rose in the Tang Dynasty and developed earlier.
The Sichuan-Tibet Line later had the greatest influence and was the most well-known.
All three roads are closely related to Chang. Among them, the Yunnan-Tibet Line and the Sichuan-Tibet Line must pass through Changdu, and their development is closely related to the tea-horse trade.
Speaking of this, the importance of Chamdo can be seen.
In the world at that time, these paths of tea and horse trading rely entirely on Chamdo. The development of Chamdo's economy also relies on the path of mutual trading.
In the past, Jiang Liuyu only heard about the tea and horse market in the words of others, but in this aristocratic circle, he knew more than others.
Everyone knows that in the Ming Dynasty, the children of merchants were not allowed to take the imperial examinations. But this does not mean that the aristocratic circles do not like money. Let me ask you, which noble person does not have the ability to wear rags and clothes. Which high-ranking official is not piled up by millions of yellow and white things they disdain.
Jiang Liuyu knew the importance of money. He could spend a lot of money generously, but he also hoped to rely on his own abilities to give some support to his family, and more importantly, to his father who was an official in Beijing.
He had no chance in the past, but recently he heard that Ningling County Magistrate mentioned that his clan brothers in Chamdo were making a fortune, so he became interested.
However, if you really want to do this, you have to think of a perfect solution, cover up the traces and send someone who is trustworthy to Chamdo to manage, then there is no reason not to make money.
He thought about it himself, and his eyes were involuntarily looking at Wuyang.
Wu Yang was confused and frowned slightly and whispered: "Although this person is an official now, he is a bit humble. It is reasonable for the young master to get tired of him. Next time, we will just take a detour."
Jiang Liuyu smiled softly and asked, "Do you want to go and see it if you have been to Changdu?"
Wu Yang smiled and said, "Reply to the young master, the villain has always been with the young master since he is sensible. Where have you been to Changdu? Isn't you confused?"
"Hehe, too." Jiang Liuyi did not say further. He needed to find someone to discuss this matter so that the matter would go smoothly.
Somehow, when he thought of finding someone to discuss making money, the first thing that came to his mind was Shen Kang.
He himself didn't understand what was going on, but it was reasonable.
Look at Wang Lucao, who has a noble background and a noble spirit, is a natural pedantic. How could he be the master of money? It's different. He comes from the bottom, his mind is active and full of bad water. Although he doesn't see him making money, no one has seen Shen Kang spend money.
So the question is, where does Shen Kang's money come from
A rice crab breeding made the entire Xianan Village and even the Runing Mansion rich. If such a person is said to be without business mind, who can believe it?
Jiang Liuyu smiled softly. The people around him really do their own jobs and are very useful.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, oh yeah." Jiang Liuyu stretched out his body and said with a smile: "The weather is really good, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."
Jiang Liuyu was in a good mood for no reason, which made Wu Yang feel uncomfortable. What's wrong with this person
But he could only smile and said, "Young Master encountered something good, so happy that the young man was at a loss and was very scared."
Jiang Liuyan kindly raised his hand and patted Wu Yang on the shoulder, and replied, "It's okay, there's nothing wrong for the time being. In a few days, you'll have a good thing."
Wu Yang's back was unconscious and his scalp was numb, and a bad premonition surged into his heart.
