Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

This isn't an exaggeration on Nanxi's part.

There are a lot of people here, all kinds of clothes, and even some people from the Xiao Kingdom who come to do business.

This is the person Xiao Ce summoned through Wang Shouyi.

Xiao Ce knew that many of the Tiger Legion's families lived with Wang Shouyi, and their lives were not very good after they moved there.

Therefore, Xiao Ce asked Wang Shouyi to talk to Lin Yao and let their families do business with Wang Shouyi.

Tell them to go to the Kingdom of Xiao and bring the goods over to sell to the people of the Western Regions.

Lin Yao, being a member of the Tiger Legion, also thought it was a good thing when he heard the news.

Once the soldiers' families are treated well, the soldiers will naturally be very grateful to him.

He was naturally happy to do something that involved currying favor.

Of course, Lin Yao still went to talk to Lin Bang about it, and Lin Bang agreed again.

All that's needed is for Lin Yao to do his job of supervising.

Therefore, you can see merchants from all over the world here.

Of course, the reason why so many people have been attracted here is entirely due to the excellent policies.

Xiao Ce completely adopted the model of Taobao in later generations, only changing it to an offline model.

He set up a trading center here, where people can put their goods to sell. For example, if person A wants to sell a sheep, they can hand the sheep over to the trading center.

Then the trading center at Sanguandao will inspect the sheep and give an appraised price, plus or minus 15%. The trading center will then put all the above information in a special area for selling sheep, and make it available for people to choose from.

Once someone makes a purchase, they hand over the money to the transaction center. After confirmation, the transaction center will release the funds to Party A.

One advantage of this is that sellers no longer need to search for buyers everywhere. Buyers also don't have to worry about buying diseased sheep or overpriced sheep, because the trading center here handles quality inspections and pricing!

Not only that, sellers don't need to put in any effort anymore. They can simply list their items in the trading center, wait if they want, or leave if they don't. They can collect their money directly next time they come back!

At first, people didn't quite accept this model, so Xiao Ce hired some shills.

After the sellers tasted the benefits, they were naturally happy to do so, since some of them were small businesses and the cost of going out was very high.

Now that everyone has experienced the benefits of these items, everyone is thinking about quickly acquiring some good stuff and listing it on the Sanguandao Trading Center to make money fast.

Xiao Ce has recently started trading futures in the Three Passes Pass!

Of course, Xiao Ce didn't use the most complicated futures contracts, but rather the most basic ones.

Let's say A needs 100 sheep in three months. B has exactly 100 sheep ready for market in three months. The two parties can then agree on this and complete the transaction three months later.

Both the buyer and seller need to pay a deposit and agree on the price!

Of course, Xiao Ce would not tell them the purpose of setting up this futures contract.

...

At this moment, Nanxi looked at the endless stream of people and the soldiers patrolling everywhere.

The soldiers here all stood tall and proud, exuding an air of confidence and dignity.

To be honest, Nanxi had never seen so many soldiers with such high spirits and energy.

Even the soldiers trained in Da Lei didn't have this.

Of course, what Nanxi didn't know was that Xiao Ce had paid a huge sum of money.

After all, what Xiao Ce wanted to create was a place where these merchants could feel safe.

After wandering around for a while, Nan Xi said to General Dan beside him, "General Dan, the people I found are quite good, aren't they? In such a short time, could you have imagined that so many people would come to our Shanshan Kingdom?"

General Dan shook his head at Nan Xi and then said, "That's true! But Your Majesty, there's no need for you to be too happy. After all, you've already bestowed this Sanguandao City upon His Highness the King of Mobei, and you also said that all the revenue here goes to him... It has nothing to do with us whether it's booming here or not."

"On the contrary, His Highness the King of the Northern Desert has practically brought all the business from the entire Northern Desert to China! This is bound to cause envy among other countries... In the end, we'll take the blame, and he'll reap the benefits!"

General Dan is a straightforward and outspoken man.

Nanxi listened and laughed, saying, "General Dan, isn't your relationship with General Da Lei getting warmer quickly? Why do you still have such a big problem with the King of Mobei?"

General Dan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't. I was merely explaining the implications..."

Nanxi smiled and said, "You still underestimate His Highness the King of Mobei. He is not short of money! If he wanted to make money, he wouldn't use such a tiring method! Moreover, the King of Mobei will never be here. Once this Sanguandao Trade City is established, the entire Shanshan Kingdom will benefit."

General Dan nodded and said nothing more.

After wandering around the area several times, they noticed that the pace of life here was very fast, and everyone was busy making money.

With more people, there are more businesses.

Even the capital of Shanshan Kingdom is not as lively as this place.

After they finished their tour, they went to Xiao Ce's residence.

Xiao Ce was busy in his study when Hu Yidao rushed over and said something to him.

"Your Highness, the Empress has arrived."

Xiao Ce was not surprised to hear Hu Yidao's words and nodded: "Go and invite him in."

Seeing Xiao Ce's composure, Hu Yidao asked with some surprise, "Your Highness, aren't you surprised at all?"

Xiao Ce nodded to Hu Yidao and said, "Of course, didn't we receive the latest news? Wuwei led an army of 150,000 to the border between Gaochang and Uzbekistan. War is imminent! At this moment, Bairda is like an ant on a hot pan, and still sent someone to find Nanxi. Nanxi is definitely in a dilemma now, not knowing what to do."

Hu Yidao nodded, then said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, what would you suggest we do?"

Xiao Ce said, "Of course, we should choose the one that best serves the interests of Shanshan... You've been with me for so long, tell me what you think."

After a moment's thought, Hu Yidao said, "We should choose: disagree, but not refuse!"

Xiao Ce waved his hand and said, "Of course not..."

Hu Yidao looked at Xiao Ce strangely, and Xiao Ce told Hu Yidao to go and invite Nan Xi in first.

Xiao Ce straightened his clothes and walked to a reception hall on the side.

As soon as I sat down, I heard Nan Xi's familiar, silvery laughter.

"Your Highness, the King of the Northern Desert, you've built this place up so well, why don't you renovate your own residence? It's too simple here."
