MTL - Great Tang Broom Star-Chapter 32 Chang'an

  Chapter 32 Chang'an

   "My lord, the bamboo pieces should be threaded from here."

  A craftsman was teaching Xu Jingzong bamboo weaving very seriously, because Jia Ping'an said that if he couldn't teach it, his wages would be deducted later.

   A salary of 100 Wen per day!

  The salary was spread, and Xu Shijun became famous for his generosity, but some people said behind his back that Old Xu might be stupid.

  Xu Jingzong's fingers were cut in many places by thin bamboo slices. Looking at the wounded fingers, he picked up the half-woven basket and wanted to smash it.

   "Ahem!"

  The commander-in-chief of reforming "treacherous ministers" Jia Ping'an appeared, "Master, fame! Fame!"

  Xu Jingzong put down the basket, took a deep breath, "I want fame, I want fame!"

  For the sake of fame, Lao Xu is willing to endure hardships, which makes Jia Ping'an very admired. He originally wanted to do it with Lao Xu, but there are many things at present, which are all loopholes left by Lao Xu.

   "Everywhere in Huazhou is doing its own thing. There are too many baskets. It's not appropriate. I think it should be a guide."

   "What do you mean?" Xu Jingzong gradually weaved baskets proficiently with his white hands that wrote memorials and edicts.

   "Huazhou is a game of chess, and we can't go our own way, otherwise, how will the merchants buy it? It's all baskets, and there is no technical content at all!"

   "What technical content?" Xu Jingzong looked up, "Then how do you say it should be done?"

   "Unified planning, several villages make one type, and change according to external needs at any time, so that we can remain invincible."

  Xu Jingzong snorted, "Let Liao Quan accompany you to do it."

  Old Xu looked calm, Jia Pingan was a little surprised, thinking that you are not surprised by the overall planning of future generations? It seems that Old Xu has really been reborn. This is all thanks to someone!

  Thinking of his painstaking training of Lao Xu, Jia Ping'an felt overwhelmed with a sense of accomplishment, and decided to ask his cousin to make lamb chops to roast at night.

   Make some delicious sauces, grilled lamb chops that are charred on the outside and tender on the inside... It’s no good, my mouth is watering.

   After he left, Xu Jingzong sighed: "This young man is so clever that this old man has a headache. Many times he can only pretend to be stupid, otherwise he will be ashamed."

   "Don't tell it!" Xu Jingzong glanced at the craftsman next to him.

  The craftsman quickly agreed, and Xu Jingzong was satisfied.

   "Ahem!"

  Someone coughed outside the door, Xu Jingzong raised his head, and saw Jia Pingan with an innocent face: "I came back just to ask... Can the merchant get in touch?"

   "Did you hear what I said earlier?" Xu Jingzong couldn't help blushing, thinking that he was obviously shocked by Jia Pingan, but pretended to be calm, and was surprised when he left. It's really shameful!

   "No." Jia Pingan knew he was wrong the moment he opened his mouth.

  If he didn't hear it, his reaction should be to ask: What are you talking about.

  He turned around and ran away, "You should hurry up about the businessman's affairs!"

   Damn it!

  Xu Jingzong also reacted, and cursed: "Get lost!"

   I am so ashamed!

   It started to move. Thousands of people in Huazhou were making bamboo ware. For a while, those who dug bamboo, processed bamboo, and made bamboo weaving... The whole Huazhou was in a state of restlessness.

   Amidst this restlessness, several petty officials rushed into the state office.

   "Envoy!"

  Xu Jingzong was weaving a basket, he felt his heart was completely quiet, he only saw the bamboo pieces in his eyes, and only those vertical and horizontal structures in his mind...

   "What's the matter?" Xu Jingzong felt that his heart had never been so peaceful, so comfortable.

   "My lord, those merchants have said that we don't want to buy bamboo weaving in Huazhou!"

   "It's the same over there."

   "..."

   Deathly silence.

  Xu Jingzong waved his hand. Seeing his calm expression, everyone couldn't help secretly praising the envoy for his grandeur.

   and others went out, Xu Jingzong slammed it down, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground and shattered.

   "Twenty thousand guan! Twenty thousand guan!"

  Old Xu panicked and scolded: "Those low dog slaves, this is premeditated! Changsun Wuji, you old dog, I want to kill you!"

   Jia Pingan, who is coordinating the bamboo weaving industry in various places, is back.

"Someone made a move, and merchants are not allowed to buy Huazhou's bamboo weaving. It's safe, it's over! We're over!" Xu Jingzong slapped the table, "It must be the beasts in Guanlong, we must hurry up, or... let the bamboo weaving everywhere Stop? Not right!"

   "Officials are most afraid of changing orders overnight. If this is the case, the old man's prestige and reputation will disappear. Reputation!"

  Xu Jingzong walked around the room like a trapped animal. When it came to fame, the struggling expression on his face made people want to laugh.

   "Twenty thousand coins! Could it be all spent? Where will the old man and his family live? Could it be that they are looking for a broken thatched hut in the workshop?"

   "Why is the old man so upright?" Xu Jingzong was in pain, and when he saw Jia Pingan drinking tea leisurely, he said angrily, "You're gloating?"

   "Your Majesty, I am not this type of person." Jia Pingan said seriously: "I act upright, and I feel the same way."

  Xu Jingzong looked at him suspiciously, "Why does the old man feel that you are full of cunning?"

  The old man has been an official for many years, not to mention many, his vision of people will not be bad.

  So Jia Ping’an’s heart skipped a beat, and he felt that his “integrity” personality had been exposed somewhere, so he laughed and said, “This is intelligence. Sir, intelligence and cunning don’t matter.”

  Xu Jingzong didn't have the energy to worry about this, his eyes were red, "20,000 guan! If it's gone, how can I go home and meet people?"

  The fellow said while glancing at Jia Pingan, but Jia Pingan was still drinking tea.

  Training a treacherous minister is very difficult. Jia Ping'an feels that he is physically and mentally exhausted, the kind who can't get up without two beauties to beat his shoulders.

   "Xiao Jia..." Xu Jingzong saw that Jia Pingan was still indifferent when he saw that he had been miserable for a long time. But things need to be resolved!

   "Peace!" Old Xu's eyes were full of murderous intent.

   Okay, that's all for the presentation.

  Jia Pingan put down his teacup, took a look at Lao Xu, and felt that his patience was much better than before. He couldn't help but secretly comforted himself, but immediately felt something was wrong.

   I am much more patient, do I want to transform Old Xu into a turtle?

  Sin sin!

   "Businessmen seek profit, but they don't come, there must be pressure from someone. Needless to say, those are the envoy's enemies."

  This is a concept that must be clarified. Xu Jingzong nodded, admitting that it was his fault.

   This recognition is very fast!

   Jia Ping'an was more relieved, "They thought that blocking the merchants would make Huazhou's bamboo wares nowhere to be sold, but they were wrong!"

  Xu Jingzong's eyes were piercing, and he almost called out to his little ancestor, "Say it!"

"First of all, we have to build momentum." Jia Pingan thought of Yu Wen, and he felt that there was something wrong with this person, and he moved too quickly towards Old Xu, "Since those people are making things difficult for the emperor and Huazhou, we have to let people know. Shi Jun is loyal. How to do it? Obviously it won’t work, so let’s call..."

   "Call?" Xu Jingzong looked suspicious.

   "Yes, it's just shouting. Every morning, Shijun asked Yu Wen to lead them to shout, and leave the rest to someone." Jia Ping'an's eyes were full of mischief... no, it was the light of wisdom.

"good!"

  Xu Jingzong saw that Jia Ping'an was willing to take care of everything, so he agreed. As for Yu Wen, that guy has been showing some signs of licking the dog recently, and Old Xu just happened to test it.

  So the next morning, a group of officials stood outside the state government office, led by Yu Wen.

   "We are loyal to His Majesty and have no second thoughts!"

   "..."

   Shame!

  Yu Wen wanted to die.

  The people passing by would stop for a while to watch the excitement, and someone murmured: "I'm afraid I'm sick."

   "Just sick."

   "..."

   These words made Yu Wen feel uncomfortable, but what was even more uncomfortable was that Lao Xu asked him to take the initiative to admit that it was his own idea to shout, which was very inappropriate.

  The new Sima is actually His Majesty's licking dog, this...

  Yu Wen gritted his teeth and agreed, and his heart was full of people who endured humiliation, such as the humiliated Han Xin...

  He led the people to shout, and inadvertently saw a familiar face in the crowd.

   Isn't this a messenger dedicated to contacting myself?

  The courier looked dazed at the moment, unable to believe what he saw.

  Yu Wen even led someone to show his loyalty to His Majesty?

  Yu Wen wanted to take advantage of the situation, but everyone was watching. He was inexplicably sad and angry, and wanted to roar, but what he finally shouted was: "We are loyal to His Majesty, and we have no second thoughts..."

   At this moment, Jia Pingan took Liu Jia to find Liao Quan.

   "Go to Chang'an?" Liao Quan couldn't help being stunned.

  If you want to travel far this year, the villager in the village must submit an application to the county. The number of people, what things you have, whether there are large animals, etc. will be recorded. After the county review is correct, it will be sent to the state for approval.

   It is impossible to go out on horseback to have fun together when you are interested, at least not in this era.

  If you go out without applying, the checkpoints everywhere will take you directly, and then torture and interrogate the origin, and finally you will be sentenced according to your own judgment...

  You said that brother has martial arts and can run rampant.

  Sorry, this is Datang, and there are Zhechong Mansions everywhere. Once the soldiers of Zhechong Mansion are dispatched, you will be a dragon or a tiger.

   "Yes." Jia Pingan said: "There are no merchants to buy bamboo, so let's sell it ourselves."

Well!

   This thought was like a flash of lightning passing through Xu Jingzong's body, making him tremble all over.

   "What? Sell it by yourself?" Xu Jingzong only felt that his mind was lost, "Why didn't I think of it? Stupid!"

  Liao Quan stood below, looking at his boss worriedly, feeling that he was haggard.

  Why is the old man telling the truth again?

  Xu Jingzong was very embarrassed, and then said with a straight face: "It's just that there are so many bamboo wares, how can they be sold? It's better than nothing. Also, who will he let?"

   "Liu Jia."

   "Two people!" Xu Jingzong nodded, "He is a broom star. If he goes to Chang'an, he will definitely attract attention. Tell him that he is not allowed to wander in Chang'an city, but only in Dongxi City and his residence... Do you understand?"

  Liao Quan nodded, "Xiaguan will go with them."

  Xu Jingzong saw that he knew the opportunity, and couldn't help but praise: "As expected, you are the most considerate, this trip... If you can sell 50% of it, it will be a great achievement, and the remaining 50% will be covered by the old man."

  He clenched his fists in pain, but his face was still calm, which made Liao Quan secretly praise him.

  The prefectural government personally made the customs clearance document, that is, the pass, and the speed was scary.

   On the second day, Jia Pingan, Liao Quan, Liu Jia, and several village representatives set off.

   A few days later, Jia Ping'an saw Chang'an City.

   BIG!

  He just took a look at the spacious and ridiculously straight street, and was dumbfounded.

  This... a street width of more than 100 meters, is this a street? Is it the square?

   "This is Chang'an?" Jia Ping'an only felt his heart beating faster, and a kind of passion to witness history made him blush.

   "Yes." Liao Quan said proudly, "This is Chang'an!"

  …

  The big man wrote a bit more serious, so the new book Jazz decided to tell the story with a sinking heart, not in a hurry, please take your time.

  Master Jia left Huazhou and entered Chang'an City, and the story just... began. Sprinkle flowers, vote, support... Shout out.
