Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

After all, as a young man born in the 21st century, Zhang Yan's insights and decisions in many aspects far exceed most generals of this era.But only in the field of actual combat, it is the first-line generals like Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang who have been in battle for a long time who are more familiar with them.

Although it is written on the paper that one's sword and shield hand should be neatly equipped with a full set of fine steel long swords, and the iron-clad round shield with one hand and all members of the torso should be equipped with chain mail, but the long sword is different from the long sword. Every piece of chain mail is also different.Only with Pei Yuanshao and the others can Zhang Yan confirm which equipment he should buy and equip his subordinates.

Unlike the 1 people who were directly responsible for the deployment of the Hanling Emperor Liu Hong, he only needed to obtain equipment directly from the arsenal directly under the eunuch according to the requirements. For weapons and equipment, Zhang Yan needs to bring his own people to the market to buy them.Now that Zhang Yan brought Ye'er outside the city, he planned to take a few generals with him to the market in Luoyang city to buy equipment for his troops.

(ii) 6 5 ㈤ ㈥ ○ [-] ③

Hastily greeted the guards at the city gate, Zhang Yan didn't say much, and just led Ye'er to the large camp set up by his garrison not far away.He still has a lot of things to do today, so naturally he doesn't have much time to catch up with these defenders one by one.

When he arrived at the military camp, he would first take Pei Yuanshao and others to a market in the west of Luoyang City to buy horse weapons, and then go to the imperial servant's arsenal in the north of the city to receive the longbow and arrows belonging to his five thousand archers. arrow.Armor, like crossbow arrows, was still a non-tradable contraband in the Han Dynasty, so Zhang Yan still needed to think of a way to get all these things together.

After these things are completed one by one, he can send his subordinates to buy seeds and agricultural tools in Luoyang City, and at the same time sit down with peace of mind and have a good chat with Wei Xian about the moving of the people.

During the period of rest at home, Zhang Yan also considered whether to move all his series of industries in Luoyang to Lujiang.After all, he now has eight large-scale restaurants under his control, as well as two garment shops, a brewery, and a small paper mill that he taught the system to exchange for improved papermaking techniques.

If all these industries are relocated to the Xinzhi Wan City in Lujiang, not to mention the contribution I have made to the economic development of the Lujiang area. Gain a lot of goodwill among sub-groups.

In this era, although Cai Lun, the former Zhongchang servant, had improved the papermaking technique to "Caihou paper" with relatively low production cost, due to the blockage of information and the delay in technology dissemination, among the current Eastern Han scholars, there are still Only merchants near Luoyang have the habit of producing paper on a large scale.

In the Jiangdong generation, paper is still only a rare thing that the aristocratic families are lucky enough to try.

This habit of leaning towards the north, both economically and culturally, in the original world line, I am afraid that it will have to wait until the Jin and Yuan emperors travel south to have a certain degree of improvement.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yan decided to relocate all the industries under his command to Wancheng, the governor of Lujiang. For the shops, Zhang Yan only intends to take away the core management and technical personnel, while the rest will stay in Luoyang and continue to maintain the operations of these shops as branches.

Even in the next two or three years, these industries will inevitably be burned due to a fire in Luoyang, but considering that Zhang Rang and He Jin will officially tear their skins apart in a short time, keeping these people in Luoyang can serve as a Eyeliners and intelligence personnel continuously provided all kinds of intelligence to Zhang Yan, who was based in Lujiang.

Even after Dong Zhuo enters Beijing in the future, these people will be able to play a big role in helping him unite with the princes to fight for Dong in the future, and at the same time protect the safety of Zhongchang Attendant Zhang Rang.

After a rough estimate in his mind, even if those low-level workers were not taken away, Zhang Yan estimated that hundreds of people would move to Lujiang to work with him.And that's not counting those grassroots people on Wei Xian's side who are willing to go to Lujiang with him.

Silently making a plan in his heart, Zhang Yan led Ye'er into the camp outside the city.

……

"I've seen the general!"

……

"Good afternoon, General!"

……

The voices of people greeting him were endless, so Zhang Yan led Ye'er into the camp.Since it was already noon, these soldiers had already undergone hard tactical training all morning, and they were queuing up one by one, holding their own big bowls, waiting for a group of cooking soldiers to arrange lunch for them.

Currently responsible for the meals of these 1 people is a special cooking team with more than 100 people.These people usually live with their main combat soldiers, but in terms of arms, they are the same as the supply soldiers, they are a special kind of auxiliary soldiers, and they don't need to step on the battlefield in person during non-emergency times.

It's just that on weekdays, this group of soldiers needs to carry iron pans and other cooking utensils to act together with ordinary soldiers, and they also go to train together in their spare time, so the strength of this group of people is even much stronger than Zhang Yan's main battle soldiers.

If one can find a handy weapon and equip it, at a critical moment, this group of people can serve as a large force for Zhang Yan to use.

But now, Zhang Yan has ended the war in the Central Plains and brought them back to the vicinity of Luoyang, so the cooking soldiers in his camp are a little free.

Taking a general look, Zhang Yan only saw that most of the soldiers today were holding two steamed buns in their hands. At the same time, the food was also rich in meat and vegetables, but they did not obey his orders, so they also Feel free to find a messenger, let the other party find Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang, and go to the inside of the big tent in the camp to find himself.

As for Zhang Yan himself, he took Ye'er and entered the camp of the Chinese army first.

"I have seen the lord!"

Pushing open the curtain of the tent, Zhang Yan first let Ye'er in, and then he followed behind into the inside of the big tent.And with just a glance, Zhang Yan saw Yang Feng and Han Xian playing with the general seal in their hands and talking to each other with joy.

"I have seen the lord!"

……

"I have seen the lord!"

……

They waved their hands to Zhang Yan who came in one after another. Yang Feng and others saw that there was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl beside Zhang Yan, so they took a second look in surprise.And considering that Zhang Yan did not wear the general's armor today, but came to the barracks in ordinary clothes, so he didn't pay too much attention to it, as long as the girl was Zhang Yan's personal maid, she didn't care about it. Too much attention.

Chapter 11 Market in Fangshi

Entering Luoyang City, Zhang Yan didn't ride a horse on the street, so he led Ye'er, Pei Yuanshao and others on foot to the largest square city in the city located in the west of Luoyang City.But when he plunged into the deepest part of the city, Zhang Yan didn't pay attention to the blacksmith shops that kept yelling along the street. Instead, he led the crowd along the way, and soon came to a relatively clean alley. .

It's not that Zhang Yan doesn't like the blacksmith skills outside or something. He ignored those private shops this time, just because the things he needs really don't match the works of those individual blacksmiths.

As for Zhang Yan, who has been to this city several times and has some knowledge of the distribution of merchants in it, he naturally knows what kind of merchants can truly meet his needs.

Quickly skipping a few noisy alleys, Zhang Yan's ears gradually became quiet.

"Huh, probably this way?"

"The last time I came here, they took it with me on the road, but I can't remember the location..."

"I just hope that I won't find the entrance for a while."

Silently muttering a few words in his heart, Zhang Yan led the crowd straight to the west of Fangshi, which is also the deepest part of the market in Luoyang City.

After all, although he needs to purchase a large amount of weapons and equipment for this trip, for Zhang Yan, what he needs is the standard equipment that can satisfy him to deploy a large number of troops at the same time, instead of looking for those skilled blacksmiths to customize or build .

According to his quantity requirement of tens of thousands, in Luoyang City, only those merchants who specialize in bulk purchases, or even the top merchant families in Luoyang, are likely to take all the weapons orders. .

It was precisely because of this that Zhang Yan didn't care about the blacksmiths who were yelling at him and others, so he led the crowd into the deepest part of Xifang City in Luoyang City.

Taking the lead and leading the crowd across a huge stone archway, Zhang Yan could clearly feel that all the noises in his ears disappeared in an instant, and at the same time, the entire street on both sides quickly quieted down.And it wasn't until Zhang Yan came here that he seemed to recognize the road suddenly, and the direction under his feet gradually became firmer.

Passing through three huge archways in a row, soon, a market that was larger than the previous auxiliary road, but seemed a little quiet, came into everyone's eyes.

……

"Master, is this?"

Looking around curiously, Ye'er first looked around at the shops around that were only open for business but without any clerks coming out to shout, and then asked Zhang Yan aloud.She buys things on weekdays, at most she trades in the square market outside, and has never entered the deepest part of this market. Naturally, she never thought that there is such a special street in the deepest part of the market, even It can be said that there is a hole in the sky.

It was the first time I came here with Zhang Yan today, and Ye'er was naturally curious about the rows of shops with open doors facing her, wishing to go in one by one to see them one by one.

"Chihiro" ②0б8

Hearing Ye'er's question, Zhang Yan first smiled, and then explained to everyone behind him.

"Ye'er, it's normal that you haven't been here on weekdays. After all, you can buy all the things you need to buy in your daily life at the market just outside..."

"The street in front of us now is the 'li market' of the former Nafang City, and it is also a special market where wealthy businessmen specialize in large transactions. Few people usually know about it."

"Not to mention you, Ye'er, even I was led by others before I realized that there is such a special place in Luoyang City."

Smiling, he explained a few sentences to Ye'er. Although Zhang Yan was talking about his personal maid, his eyes occasionally glanced at Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang who stood behind him like two door gods. people.Both of them were from poor peasants, so they were naturally very curious about this kind of place that only the top rich people would use for business, and they were also filled with a faint desire to find out deep in their hearts.

After explaining the general situation here to everyone, Zhang Yan didn't say any more, and just led the people behind him into a storefront at the front of the street near the archway.

We must know that this "li market" is an indispensable part of the Fangshi culture that has lasted for more than a thousand years in Chinese history, and it is also a specific place for big merchants to buy and ship goods wholesale.In this city, almost all the core members of various families or the spokespersons of these members appear, and the prices of the goods are mostly wholesale prices, which are much cheaper than the foreign markets that specialize in small transactions. .

If it wasn't because Yuan Shu brought him here a few days ago, Zhang Yan might not even know that there is such a place in Luoyang City, where he has lived for more than half a year.

You must know that at the very beginning, in order to build those damn wonders, Zhang Yan bought grain in bulk at the outside market, and he would wipe out the stock of those grain shops for a day or even a few days. It provoked anger and resentment all over Luoyang.

After repeating this behavior several times, Yuan Shu, who happened to come to see the fun with him, really couldn't stand it anymore, and brought Zhang Yan to this special place for bulk purchases.

It was also after that time that Zhang Yan knew that there was such a very useful place for him in Luoyang city.

This time, Zhang Yan brought everyone to this market, and Zhang Yan planned to see if he could buy enough standard weapons in bulk from these top merchants.

Leading the crowd into the first store in Nare City, Zhang Yan has been here before, so he is naturally familiar with the road.But following behind him, Ye'er and the others had a faint look of curiosity in their eyes, and looked at the interior decoration of the store just like that.

Different from what everyone expected, there is no product display area inside the first store, instead, there are a lot of benches, tables and chairs like a tea house.At this moment, under Zhang Yan's leadership, everyone found an empty table for four people, and sat down like this.

The collision of the armor kept causing some slight noises. Just after Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao sat down one after another, the atmosphere inside the store suddenly became a little stagnant.

Chapter 12 Inner Market

The so-called Fangshi, that is, the separation system of Fangshi, is a trading system that has run through the history of China for more than 1000 years, from the Qin Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty.It divides the residents' living area and trading area inside the city into two mutually unrelated locations. When residents want to conduct transactions, whether they want to buy or sell, they have to go to the dedicated Fangshi streets.

And this kind of system lasted almost until the middle and late Tang Dynasty, and it was gradually abandoned because it was only possible to conduct transactions during the daytime, which could no longer meet the growing consumption needs of the people of Chang'an.

When the curfew system is relaxed, people can gradually conduct transactions anytime and anywhere on the streets in front of their homes, which is already a thing in the Song Dynasty.

Undoubtedly, when factors such as public security were relatively backward in the past, the Fangshi system did reduce the buying and selling problems encountered by many residents, and at the same time reduced the probability of theft and other behaviors to a certain extent.However, considering the relatively rigid flaws of this system, Zhang Yan still intends to try to cancel this system in advance in the future, in the territory of the "Wan Kingdom" where he can make his own decisions, and at the same time loosen the curfew requirements appropriately. .

After all, in the future, if there is an opportunity, Zhang Yan may use night markets and other things to promote the consumption of residents under his command. At the same time, for some key production institutions, Zhang Yan may use three shifts to carry out increase in production.If that's the case, for him, this curfew has changed from a law and order measure of last resort to a somewhat different kind of restriction and confinement.

……

Leaving aside the analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of Fangshi Yizhi, as Zhang Yan and others entered the store and sat down, the relatively peaceful atmosphere in the store suddenly became stagnant, and at the same time, many people were talking in low voices. The businessman also cast suspicious eyes on Zhang Yan and his party. He wondered what the purpose of this group of strange-looking guys appeared here.

It's not to blame this group of people for thinking too much, but because among the four people present, except for Zhang Yan and Ye'er who looked relatively normal, the rest of them, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang, were all of the five big and three rough types.At the same time, in terms of clothing, the two of them did not wear the same robes and other services as everyone else. Instead, each of them wore that kind of armor with rattling iron plates, which looked like a typical military style.

In this era, whether it is a soldier or a general, their equipment is uniformly deployed by a special arsenal.In daily consumption, ordinary soldiers have no ability to consume at all, and even if military officers want to eat meat alone and buy something they want, most of the time they go to the "outside market" of Fangshi to purchase, and they will not come to Here in the city.

Therefore, after a large number of the four people present with their eyes, those merchants turned their eyes to the one who said nothing, but was faintly in the master's position among the four people, and at the same time was served by the young girl beside him. On young men.

Obviously, among the group of four who looked a little special, Zhang Yan, who was dressed in ordinary clothes, was obviously the real talker.Before waiting for a moment, a man with the appearance of a servant appeared from the back hall and walked towards the direction of the four people present.

……

"Hey, isn't this... isn't this Mr. Zhang? I haven't seen you for a long time!"

Looking at the crowd from a distance, the young man just glanced around the scene and then focused on Zhang Yan.However, he hadn't reacted when he was far away before. It wasn't until he got close to the crowd that he suddenly recognized that the leader of the group of four was actually an acquaintance of his shop, and also an old man from Xifang City in the city. Customer, Zhang Yan, the fourth son of Luoyang, whose pocket money is worth more than many people's family property.

"Well, it's been a while."

Smiling and nodding towards the boy, Zhang Yan recognized the identity of the boy from a distance, so there was no surprise on his face.

To be honest, this person should be regarded as a waiter who is specially used to deliver news and receive the children of the aristocratic families in this square city. He is somewhat similar to a guide or a shopping guide.

And the first shop in this city is not a place for buying and selling at all, but a few wealthy merchants in Luoyang City, according to Zhang Yan's suggestion, set up a special place for visiting The place where buyers and sellers in Fangshi provide services.

As early as a few months ago, when Zhang Yan came to this city for the first time, the streets in the inner city were not as quiet as they are now, but the same as the outer city outside, without any special places.In addition to the relatively well-dressed people who conduct transactions in Lishi, there are also various shops displaying their own goods everywhere on the street. At the same time, buyers and sellers bargain face to face on the street to determine the content of the transaction. It can be said that it is very noisy. .

For a buyer who wants to buy a specific product, although such a trading atmosphere is very good, it is relatively difficult to find goods that meet his requirements, especially a sufficient quantity of goods that meet his requirements. very difficult thing.

After all, Fangshi is neither Taobao nor Amazon. Buyers cannot find the products they want to buy by entering keywords and searching with one click. Even if they finally find the products they want, the products from the supplier The quantity is difficult to meet my own needs.

Whether it is a bulk buyer who finds that the other party's inventory is insufficient, or a large-volume shipper who finds that the other party's purchase demand is far lower than his expectations, it will make the previous efforts of the two parties to complete the transaction go to waste.

Therefore, in the eyes of Zhang Yan, who came to Fangshi Neishi for the first time at that time, although this place had some rudiments of wholesale markets in later generations, the transaction efficiency was unavoidably low.

I still remember that at that time, Zhang Yan was sending people to build a bridge-type spectacle, so a lot of craftsmen and coolies were used to work at one time.Whether those people eat and drink during the construction period, or the food paid by Zhang Yan as wages, it is not too small a waste.In order to find a businessman with enough food, Zhang Yan traveled almost every corner of the city that day, and finally bought the food he needed in the hands of a businessman surnamed Chen from another place. Amount of food.
