With a smile on his face, Chen Qing rolled up his trouser legs.
Xiang Li Ling dipped some dark brown ointment with her fingertips, and carefully applied the wound.
She complained in a low voice: "The front door is blocked, you can go through your own door. Court officials, what is the proper way to climb over the wall? If you spread it out, you will be laughed at."
"In a hurry, I forgot."
Chen Qing's heart was warm, and he said firmly: "If others laugh, they will laugh, as long as Miss Ling doesn't laugh at me."
"I'll laugh at you too."
Xiangli Ling leaned forward and carefully checked whether there was any uneven application.
Chen Yang's gaze suddenly looked like a fully automatic radar, aiming at her staggered skirts.
Although it is covered by the inner coat, it is difficult to get a glimpse of the real face, but its scale is really breathtaking.
The living standard of the common people in Daqin is not high, and an ordinary woman is the size of a melon, which is already rare in a hundred.
Xiangliling is at least as big as a melon!
The attractive appearance of two fleshy and heavy melons squeezed together made Chen Qing almost salivate.
"My lord, are you feeling better?"
"Well, it's huge."
Chen Qing nodded absently.
Xiangli Ling raised her head and met Chen Qing's eyes.
rub!
She clutched the front of her clothes suddenly, leaned back and fell to the ground.
"My lord, you...!"
Xiangli Ling's face was flushed red, both ashamed and angry.
"A Ling, I'll prepare a gift tomorrow, how about asking a matchmaker to come to your house to propose marriage?"
Chen Qing helped her up with distress and pity.
"Good~"
Xiangli Ling lowered her head shyly, her voice was soft and weak, completely lost the heroic spirit and sassyness of the past.
"Give me another look."
"My lord, how can you do this!"
"I haven't seen enough, let's check the goods first."
Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Qing's lust suddenly became high.
Xiang Liling is a girl born and raised in Daqin, how dare she obey him.
"Cough cough."
"Master Shaofu, Bashu Chamber of Commerce sent an invitation card."
The steward was still seven or eight steps away from the door, when he heard something wrong in the room, he coughed heavily and shouted loudly.
The room fell silent immediately.
Chen Qing winked, pointed in the direction of the back room, and asked Xiangli Ling to go in and hide first.
The other party nodded, glared at him reproachfully, and then tiptoed into the back room.
"come in."
Chen Qing sat upright and shouted softly.
"Please post here."
The steward handed over an exquisite wooden box, and after bowing, he turned and left.
"Bashu Chamber of Commerce?"
Chen Qing looked at the box inlaid with gold and silver, and hesitated to open it.
"Zhuo family, Cheng family."
"What are they looking for me for?"
Chen Qing felt baffled.
He didn't know many people in Xianyang, and he had never dealt with the Bashu Chamber of Commerce.
Why would an invitation be sent all of a sudden?
"My lord, the Zhuo family and the Cheng family are both wealthy merchant families in Bashu, they are extraordinary."
"Except for the official camp, most of the iron wares in the world come from these two families."
"It's well-known in Bashu."
Xiangli Ling came out from the room and said with a serious expression.
"Oh?"
"Didn't the imperial court ban folk ironware? There are big figures behind these two families?"
Chen Qing asked curiously.
Xiang Liling shook his head: "It is said that the Cheng family has a close relationship with Li Xiang, and the Zhuo family is even more powerful. It has been an iron merchant designated by the royal family for a long time, and it has been nearly a hundred years now."
"what……"
Chen Qing was puzzled.
Xiang Liling stood beside him and explained patiently: "In the old days when Ba and Shu still existed, the Zhuo family was already a world-renowned iron merchant. Qin was warlike and lacked iron wares. The Zhuo family often sent The caravan crossed Zhongnan Mountain and transported weapons to Daqin for thousands of miles."
"After the Qin State conquered Bashu, the Zhuo family naturally made great contributions. The imperial court granted the Zhuo family permission to operate iron smelting, and this is a reward."
Chen Qing slapped his thigh: "Isn't this a Shanxi businessman! A proper traitor from Shu!"
Zhuo knows that Qin is warlike and covets the land of Bashu, but for his own self-interest, he provides weapons to the other party.
After Bashu destroyed the country, he suddenly became the Emperor Shang of the Great Qin Dynasty!
"Then they came to me today because they want to throw a grand banquet?"
Chen Qing thought about it immediately.
He told the people with great fanfare that ironware would be cheaper than wild vegetables in the future, and Zhuo and Cheng naturally couldn't just sit idly by.
"My lord, what is Hongmen Banquet?"
"I'm worried that these two companies may come from bad people."
"Their backgrounds are not trivial, you..."
Xiang Liling couldn't help showing a worried look: "Qin Mo once helped Zhuo's family build an iron smelting furnace, which can be regarded as some kind of friendship, why don't I go and turn things around."
"Oh, what's the matter?"
Chen Qing showed disdain.
"It's just a powerful place, it's nothing more than a bigger business."
"Dou Chen Qing with me, do they have the strength?"
Chapter 132 Is it still called a young man if you are not arrogant?
The lights are on.
Chen Qing and Xiang Liling, who was dressed in men's clothes, rode in a carriage and rushed to Guangju Pavilion for the banquet.
The night was dim, and the restaurants and brothels were brightly lit.
Luxuriously dressed businessmen and nobles lingered here, eating, drinking and having fun before the curfew.
"Yo, what a pretty little gentleman."
"Come and play, the girls are staring at you!"
"Xiao Langjun, don't be ashamed!"
When passing by a brothel, the bustard waved a maroon silk handkerchief and tiptoed enthusiastically to solicit business.
Xiangli Ling was ashamed and angry, she gave the other party a hard look, pouted and sulked.
Without squinting, Chen Qing lightly pressed the back of her hand.
"Look at me later, don't panic and don't be afraid."
"Ah."
Xiangli Ling saw that he didn't look sideways, and he was not at all moved by the brothel girls who were posing on the street, and his affection for Chen Qing increased a bit.
"It's unprofessional to stand on the street. Daqin's customs industry is really backward."
"I don't have any black stockings, big white legs, or short skirts, so let's forget about it. Can I at least be more serious about my makeup?"
"A dead face, come out in the middle of the night to scare ghosts?"
Chen Qing whispered.
"My lord, what are you talking about?"
Xiang Liling asked puzzledly.
"I said that there is a miasma here, which is simply insulting."
Chen Qing said solemnly.
"Ah."
Xiangli Ling nodded suddenly, feeling the same way.
Pass through the famous Flower Street in Xianyang City, and there are two rows of restaurants and restaurants in front of you.
Guangju Pavilion sits in the middle, three floors high.
Colorful lights hang high in front of the gate, and guests come and go in an endless stream.
"It's here."
After Chen Qing got off the car, he looked up at the third floor of Guangju Pavilion.
A few people there seemed to be looking at him, and after whispering something, they quickly backed away.
Xiangli Ling held a wooden box as a companion, and followed behind him step by step.
"Chen Qing is here."
"Only brought one follower."
In the best private room of Guangju Pavilion, four or five people sat down again.
"This person has recently gained fame in Xianyang, and he has a close relationship with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so it should not be underestimated."
The person who spoke was a handsome middle-aged man in his thirties, named Zhuo Tianlu, who was the nephew of the head of the Zhuo family and was in charge of the family business in Xianyang and its surrounding areas.
"I heard that His Royal Highness allocated a piece of Yichun Palace to build him a mansion. This kind of favor is unprecedented. Let me wait..."
The tall young man sitting opposite showed hesitation.
Cheng Ji, the second son of Cheng Zheng, a wealthy merchant in Shu.
Because of escorting a batch of supplies, I happened to come to Xianyang.
The two families of Zhuo and Cheng have always been connected with each other, they are related by marriage, and they are both leaders in the subway industry in Shu, so naturally they cannot stand idly by.
"What are you afraid of him!"
"Brother Cheng, if you are afraid of him, keep quiet for a while, I will meet him!"
Zhuo Tianlu has a gentle face, but his temper is not very good.
"The Zhuo family's operation of iron smelting was ordered by King Xianhui Wen. It has been more than a hundred years, and it has been hereditary."
"How many iron objects has the Zhuo family made for Daqin in these years?"
"How much tax did I pay?"
