The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 708 690 Seven: Three Brothers Discuss Business
Following the sound of a horse neighing in the yard, Tie Niu's father rode his horse to the city of Taiyuan Prefecture.

Duan Wuji and Tieniu waited for Chai Shao and the meal, they drank tea and chatted.

Duan Wuji looked at Tieniu and asked: "Brother Tieniu, how much is our porcelain in taels of silver for a cart!

For such a long time, I have never inquired about these things! "

Tie Niu laughed and said: "The price of the porcelain has already increased, and the old yellow head insisted on asking for 250 taels of silver a cart, and we paid back the price for a long time before it was reduced to 220 taels of silver a cart!

well!That old yellow man really knows how to do business! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "220 taels a cart, 2000 taels, that's 54 carts!

In addition to tea and cloth, it would take more than a hundred carts!

This time we have all invested a lot of money, but don't lose it!

If we lose, the three of us will have to cry!

It seems that this business is becoming more and more difficult to do, alas!There is really no way!

It seems that it is getting more and more difficult to make two money. Fortunately, we all have a small background. If this is the case at the beginning, then we will be really hard to die. "

"Who says it's not! All three of us took out so much money all of a sudden, who wouldn't be worried!

It seems that after making money this time, I have to buy another ten or twenty hectares of land from him!

Farming is still safer!There is food all year round, which is much more secure than doing business here! "

The two were talking when Hou Yinping came in.

"Master, the meal is already cooked, shall we serve it?"

Tie Niu laughed and said: "Wait a little longer, our father has gone out!
Let's wait for him a little longer!
When he comes back, let's eat together again! "

"Well! That's fine!"

With that said, Hou Yinping turned around and went out again.

Not too long, there was a neighing sound outside the door, Duan Wuji laughed and said: "They are back, let's go, let's go out and greet them!"

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu stood up and walked straight outside!

As soon as the two of them walked into the yard, Tie Niu's father and Chai Shao came in from the outside leading the horse.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "Brother Chai, we haven't seen each other for more than a month now, what are you doing at home during this time!"

Chai Shao laughed and said: "What can I do! Besides practicing martial arts every day, I still practice martial arts!

We who are military generals, how can we throw away our martial arts training!

Brother, to tell you the truth, my kung fu has improved a lot!

Two virtuous brothers, what are you doing all this time! "

Tie Niu laughed.

"Brother Chai, we brothers are just like you, we also practice martial arts!

It is very dangerous to go there to do business in the Turkic country. If you don't have superb martial arts, how can you do it!

Brother Chai!Hurry up to the house please!Let's go eat quickly!
Our brothers are just waiting for you! "

The three of them walked towards the house while chatting gossip.

After entering the house, then Hou Yinping hurriedly brought food and rice into the house!

It didn't take too long, dozens of dishes were served, and these dishes were placed on a large table!

Chai Shao saw it and said with a smile: "This meal is really rich!

Sure enough, the same as I guessed!

This is much better than my life at home. "

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"My brother Chai, if you don't mind being ridiculous, I can't eat this normally!

Isn't this you coming!How can I entertain you if I don't cook something delicious!

Now that the conditions at home are better, it’s no longer a big deal to prepare this table of food, Brother Chai, hurry up and sit down! "

Chai Shao laughed when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pulled Duan Wuji to his side and sat down.

"Uncle, old aunt, you all sit down quickly!

Let's all have a meal together!

Why!Brother Tieniu, where are your younger brothers and sisters?
Hurry up and ask them to eat together! "

Tieniu's old lady laughed and said, "I'll call them over!

I don't know where these kids are playing like crazy! "

After a short time, Niu Tie's old lady brought the few of them back, and they all sat down and ate together.

Hou Yinping took down the dishes again, and then brought the tea.

Chai Shao said with a smile: "You two virtuous brothers, I just now knew that the tea leaves have been brought back.

You brothers called me over, what's the matter? "

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Isn't it just 20 days before the Chinese New Year?

I mean let's do business again after the new year.

That way we can go with more peace of mind.

My brother insisted that we leave in two days, and our two brothers disagreed.

Brother Chai, we brothers would like to hear your thoughts.

Today you can show your meaning too. "

Chai Shao laughed when he heard this.

"Brother Wuji, why are you planning to leave in two days? Tell us both of your reasons!"

Duan Wuji smiled.

"Brother Chai, you also know that it is cold in the Turkic country now, and many people are too lazy to go out of their tents, and even if they go out of their tents, they still move around the tents.

I think it is safer to go for business at this time, and if I go there after the new year, maybe the horses will be cheaper, but I always feel that it is not very safe.

Our Great Tang Dynasty has been established, but our relationship with our neighboring countries is very delicate!

You said that country is willing to have a powerful neighbor around itself!

No one wants this, right?

I think that sooner or later, the Turkic people will have a battle with our Tang Dynasty!

Before our two great powers go to war, the Turks may first arm Liu Heita's Northern Han Kingdom and come with us for a while, then the Northern Han Kingdom can't stop them before they make a move!

You said that in such an environment, can we not be more careful!

If the people we lead suffer casualties, how unlucky it would be!

Brother Chai, what do you say! "

Chai Shao listened and nodded.

"Hmm! Brother, your analysis really makes sense!

It is indeed such a thing, and I also feel that the relationship between the two countries has become more and more delicate.

To be honest, those Turkic people don’t have a good thing. Damn, these bastards have repeatedly violated our borders, but they are actually a major external threat to our Tang Dynasty!

It's just that these bastards are good at riding and shooting, and they have a large population and a large territory!

In a short time, my Great Tang Dynasty may not be able to confront them head-on.

Brother, what do you think? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Chai, your analysis is very correct, I also think so!
Damn, they can ride a horse and gallop across the prairie with a little bastard, which our people are far from reaching.

This point is also very clear in my heart! "

Chai Shao patted the table.

"Brother Tieniu, our Brother Wuji's analysis is absolutely correct.

Let's not wait for the Chinese New Year to be over, let's just leave the day after tomorrow.

Let's not find that bad luck.

Brother Tieniu, you can go there tomorrow with the money, load the goods tomorrow, and let’s go the day after tomorrow!
Why is Chinese New Year not Chinese New Year!Do we buddies still care about this!

As long as we earn back the money, we can celebrate the New Year every day!

Brother Wuji, bring your money tomorrow too!
I'm waiting for you two at home. "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "The boss of my silver tea shop has already taken away 2000 taels, and there are still 3000 taels of silver left. I will take it there on horseback!"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother, this thing you did is pretty quick, that's good, then I'll get the money there tomorrow too!"

The three chatted for a while, and Chai Shao and Duan Wuji went home after leaving Tieniu's house.
