Huangfu Sisi was asked to release the news for fishing purposes and to let Tibetan merchants know that the special products grown on their land were valuable.

This is a very important step in the strategy of building a country.

First, let them realize the value of medicinal materials, then they will pay attention to it, and only then will they consider large-scale planting.

Once large-scale planting is carried out, and it gradually develops into occupying cultivated land to plant medicinal materials, Gu Qing's plan to build a country will be more than half successful.

Of course, there are more than just Raza Wang and the three Tibetan merchants in Qiuci City. Gu Qing treated Raza Wang and the three of them so favorably, raising prices to buy medicinal materials, and giving away free gifts to shops. His only purpose was to "buy horse bones for a thousand gold."

, made for other Tibetan businessmen in Kucha City to see.

Not only to make them realize the value of Tibetan medicinal materials, but also to falsely raise the personal value of Tibetan merchants. The purpose of raising the value of medicinal materials is to make them decide to plant on a large scale, and to raise the personal value of Tibetan merchants is to comfort the Tibetan merchants.

Heart, so as to make the trade of medicinal materials a long-term one.

After Gu Qing thought for a while, he immediately asked Han Jie to bring the two Tibetan businessmen over.

The Tibetan merchants arrived quickly, and the time for burning incense arrived. The two of them were dressed in loose leather robes, took off their felt hats and held their chests in salute.

Behind them were several camels loaded with medicinal materials, and Gu Qing could smell a strange smell from a distance.

"How dare you sell just this few medicinal materials?" Gu Qing showed contempt, looking down on him.

A Tibetan businessman bowed and smiled: "I don't know that Kucha City is buying Tibetan medicinal materials on a large scale, so I didn't have time to prepare. If the price given by the nobleman is right, I will return to Tibet immediately and bring more medicinal materials next time."

.”

Gu Qing boredly picked his ears with his little finger and said casually: "Okay, as much as you want, Han Jie, accept the medicinal materials and negotiate a price with them."

The Tibetan businessman immediately said: "I heard that a Tibetan man named Raza Wang was sold for three times the price. I wonder if it is true or false?"

Gu Qing glanced at him sideways and sneered: "Don't play tricks in front of me. I know what you mean. Kucha City is indeed in urgent need of medicinal materials, but I won't give you the opportunity to ask for high prices. The things belong to you, and the price is up to me."

Decide whether you want to sell it or not."

The Tibetan businessman hurriedly laughed and said: "Yes, the villain just asked casually. The price will of course be decided by the nobleman. You tell me the number, and the villain will definitely sell it."

Gu Qing thought for a while and said: "The last time I paid Razawang three times the price was a grudge move by my generals. It cannot be treated as a routine, and I will not bully you. Let's do this. I will pay double the price of the medicinal materials in the past."

, you can follow this example in the future. If you want to sell it, just sell it. If you don’t want to sell it, you can sell it elsewhere. I won’t force you."

The two Tibetan businessmen were a little disappointed. After all, some people had sold medicinal materials three times, and when it was their turn, they only sold twice. Naturally, there was a gap in their hearts. But after thinking about it, double the profit was high enough, especially for medicinal materials.

Most of the things in Tubo grow in the wild, which is basically like picking up money. You can pick up as much as you can, why not do it?

"Okay! If the noble said double, then double, the villain will sell it." The Tibetan businessman gritted his teeth, looking aggrieved that he had lost money.

Gu Qing looked down on small business from beginning to end. He glanced at the camels outside and said casually: "Han Jie, ask Li Sima from the Jiedushi Mansion to settle the bill with them and send the medicinal materials to the camp."

The two Tibetan businessmen were about to resign and leave. One of them hesitated for a moment and suddenly said: "May I ask your noble lord, how many medicinal materials are needed in Kucha City? Is it used by the military to treat wounds, or is it used by the people?"

Gu Qing said lazily: "It is used to treat injuries, and it is also used by the people. Recently, there have been rumors among the people that your Tianshan Snow Lotus can cure women's diseases. Officials from the Jiedushi Mansion asked several doctors, and they all said it was true.

Haha, it’s strange that a few pieces of rotten grass roots and petals can cure diseases. Since the people want to use it, the Anxi Protector’s Office plans to take over this business. In the future, Tibetan medicinal materials will be handled by the Protector’s Office. The price, of course, I won’t treat you badly.

.”

The Tibetan merchants were overjoyed. The medicine used to treat injuries in the army was only needed temporarily, but women's diseases among the people were traded for a long time. After all, women's diseases came every month. If this rumor spreads to the Datang Pass in the future, based on the data of the Tang Dynasty,

With the population and demand, the trade in medicinal materials is booming.

"I have one more thing to ask your noble lord. I heard that Razawang sold medicinal materials that your army urgently needed, so your noble lord gave them a shop? I also sold medicinal materials, I don't know..." The Tubo merchant's face was filled with tears.

He smiled, but there was a look of greed in his eyes.

Gu Qing glanced at him in surprise and said with a smile: "You are quite thick-skinned. You have been consecrated by your Tibetan Bodhisattva, right? You want a shop just for the few medicinal materials you sell?"

The Tibetan businessman said anxiously: "I can bring more medicinal materials next time. When I go back, I will raise money and buy medicinal materials for a hundred camels. How about that?"

Gu Qing chuckled and said: "To be honest, the appearance of your medicinal materials is too ugly. I don't know if they can cure diseases, but they look like rotten vegetable leaves in the ground. Next time you bring a hundred camels."

If the medicinal materials are still in such an ugly condition, we won’t even want them, let alone send them to shops.”

The Tibetan businessman was shocked. From Gu Qing's words, he discovered another important piece of information. Kucha City not only needed medicinal materials, but also the medicinal materials had to be good-looking, otherwise the trip would be in vain.

"The villain understands what the noble one means. Don't worry, noble man. The medicinal materials that the villain brings next time will definitely be in good condition."

The Tibetan businessman never mentioned the offer of a gift to the shop again and resigned in a sensible manner.

Huangfu Sisi personally sent the two Tibetan businessmen to the door of the inn.

After the Tibetan businessmen left, Han Jie whispered in Gu Qing's ear: "Master Hou, what do you mean by the appearance of medicinal materials?"

Gu Qing smiled maliciously: "Wild medicinal materials are ugly. Only artificially grown medicinal materials look good. What I want is artificially grown."

Artificial planting means that cultivated land must be occupied. Gu Qing promoted the Tibetan people's progress in planting medicinal materials and occupying cultivated land in one sentence.

Huangfu Sisi came back after seeing off the businessman. Both Gu Qing and Han Jie were silent.

Neither of them had forgotten that this woman was a bit suspicious, and it was inconvenient to say something in front of her before finding out her origins.

After Huangfu Sisi came back, she sat opposite Gu Qing and stared at him with lingering eyes.

Not long after, she suddenly noticed two unkind eyes focused on her. When she looked up, she was surprised to find two strange teenagers behind Gu Qing looking at her, with a hint of hostility in their eyes.

hostility?

Huangfu Sisi was stunned. She had never met these two young men. Why were they hostile to her?

"The bodyguards behind the Marquis have changed again? These two are quite familiar to each other." Huangfu Sisi said with a sweet smile.

Gu Qing turned to look at Duan Wuji and Feng Yu, and said in a loud voice: "They are my fellow villagers and have come to seek refuge with me. Let them be my personal guards for the time being. They can be regarded as my younger brothers."

Huangfu Sisi smiled and said: "The two of you are extraordinary and worthy of being fellow countrymen of the Marquis."

Duan Wuji's face was expressionless and he didn't say anything without answering the courtesy.

But Feng Yu smiled and pointedly said: "Brother Gu, when Brother Duan and I left Chang'an, Sister Huaiyu asked us to send a message and told Brother Gu to eat well and take care of himself. Don't be too tired.

, if you are in ill health, Sister Huaiyu will feel sorry for you."

Gu Qinghunruo said unconsciously: "I have always been very serious about eating well, but you said she would feel distressed..."

Zhang Huaiyu's indifferent face with a distressed expression suddenly appeared in his mind. The picture was too beautiful to think about.

Huangfu Sisi looked sad.

She understood what Feng Yu said.

Is "Sister Huaiyu" his fiancée?

We met by chance, but we didn't agree with each other, so why did I still feel uncomfortable in my heart?

…………

Having been in Anxi for more than ten days, Duan Wuji and Feng Yu have gradually become familiar with the Anxi Army Camp.

Different from Duan Wuji, Feng Yu's familiarity with the camp is embodied in the personal guards around Gu Qing. In the first two days after arriving, Feng Yu could clearly call out the names of each of the guards. After a few more

By the end of the day, Feng Yu had gained an understanding of the personalities of all his personal guards.

He knows what kind of jokes are harmless in front of certain people, and he knows what words should not be said in front of certain people because that is his taboo.

If Duan Wuji was observing the camp as a whole, then Feng Yu was observing people and things, and their observation angles and standpoints were different.

Within a few days, Feng Yu became very acquainted with Wang Gui, who was recovering from his injuries. Wang Gui was also a smart man. Feng Yu hit it off with him and went into Wang Gui's barracks every day. The two chatted all over the world.

Feng Yu had read books, and Wang Gui had experienced life and death. The two of them chatted with each other, and they admired each other. The more they chatted, the closer they became, and they almost became brothers with different surnames.

When the love between a man and a woman becomes strong, the love turns weak. What about between a man and a man?

When men and women get along well, they can do all kinds of crazy things when their love is strong.

When Wang Gui boasted to Feng Yu about the orchid in the brothel in Qiuci City with green eyes and yellow hair, a charming figure, and an exotic feel to the bed, Feng Yu was immediately tempted, and he wanted to have a taste in the blink of an eye.

, but when he saw Wang Gui who was lying in bed recovering from his injuries, he couldn't help but hesitate.

How could the righteous Wang Gui disappoint his new confidant?

He stretched out his big hand and said, "Help me up, I can do it!"

So Feng Yu helped Wang Gui, who was seriously injured, and they staggered out of the camp and walked hard to the brothel in Kucha City.

In the middle of the night, Gu Qing, who was sleeping in the handsome tent, was woken up by Han Jie. Gu Qing threw a wine glass at him with a look of displeasure. Han Jie deftly dodged it, and then told Gu Qing with a face of shame that Feng Yu and Wang Gui were having sex for free.

They were reported to the police by the brothel owner of Kucha City. After the officials found out that the two were the marquis' personal guards, they politely sent them back to the camp, but also left a message, asking the marquis to discipline his subordinates well.

, by the way, please ask the Marquis to reimburse the prostitution money owed by your family for visiting the brothel...

The words were polite, but Gu Qing could also hear the unfinished meaning in the words, which was probably to ask the Marquis to restrain his subordinates and stop doing such embarrassing things.

Gu Qing, who was so angry that he woke up, leaned weakly on the futon, raised his head and sighed.
Chapter completed!
