Chapter 800: Merchant

5days ago traverse Novels 2
At this time, the Dongdao Kingdom became a place where all countries frequently operated. When the Liao envoy was in Ping'anjing, Xu's native Zhang Yin and others also crossed the east again.

However, the number of people sent by all parties is small and the message transmission is inconvenient, so it does not cause too much movement.

The ship Zhang Yin was riding was a light boat ship of the Jiaolong Army. It was obviously much better than the ships of the Liao people.

However, this time he also carefully chose the route, starting from Huainan Haizhou (Lianyungang), heading straight east, and finding the land coast of Goryeo first... The advantage of this route is that it is not easy to go to the wrong place.

Then find Danluo Island (Jeju), follow the southern coast of Goryeo, and pass through Tsushima Island as the location reference.

The subsequent route went north along the coast of Japan... This time, Zhang Yin did not go to Heianjing, but to Shanyin Road.

This place is located on the west coast of Japan.

Under the guidance of the guide, they arrived at the entrance of a sea called Sanpingchuan in a few days.Liu Jin, a merchant who was sent by the Military Affairs Office two years ago, has been waiting at the ferry for many days.

The two did not know each other, but they felt extra kindness after showing each other's tokens.

Zhang Yin is from Shu, Liu Jin is from Guanzhong, and he is not a fellow villager, but he feels very different in this foreign country... After all, people are people living in groups, and in strange places, it is probably an instinct to survive in groups; therefore, the country and tribe are found.

Liu Jindao: The owner of Gaoqi, the best mansion in Gaoqi, likes medicinal materials and porcelain. Did Zhang’s family bring it?

Zhang Yin hurriedly turned around and pointed to the sailboat parked at the mouth of the river and said: Several big boxes were all heard by Mr. Liu.

Very good.Liu Jin sighed and said, "The Japanese doctors often learn Central Plains medical books, and some prescriptions require imported medicinal materials, so the medicinal materials are very beneficial."The noble officials living in Heianjing also like exquisite porcelain, and these things can make a lot of money when they are in the hands of the merchants.

Zhang Yin nodded and said: So that's it... But the Privy Council means that he wants to investigate the terrain near Yinshan and build a stronghold to gain a foothold.It may be difficult to get permission to win over only one owner.

Liu Jin said: This is a bad thing in the Zhang family. This owner is not simple. The family above is Fujiwara Asahisaki, a nobleman of Heian Kyo!The owner of Takasaki has a low status and official position, but he is not very powerful in the local area and has great care in Heian Kyo, so he is not afraid of the government.

The owner of the manor gave his territory to the lord and his family in order to obtain protection from the superiors, which was enough to fight against local government officials and county officials.

Zhang Yin seemed to be thinking.

Liu Jin talked happily again: This was also forced. In the past, Japan's national affairs and counties were unscrupulous. If local landlords did not offer their land to join the big clan, it would be unbearable.

After hearing this, Zhang Yin hurriedly took out paper and pen from the package, licked the tip of the pen with his tongue, and quickly wrote the record on the spot.

Liu Jin was very surprised to see this, and Zhang Yin did not explain. The people from the Military and Cao Si may not know that Zhang Yin had presented the file before and received the honor of seeing the emperor.

After talking, they asked the sailors to tie the medicinal porcelain to the horse's back, and led it under Liu Jin's belt to Gaoqizhuang along the road on the north bank of the river.

There is a forest in the east of the Sanpingchuan River estuary, and I really can't walk. Everyone walked north from the flat road by the sea, and then turned south to the north of the mountain, and bypassed the heavy mountain.

In the evening, Zhang Yincai was taken outside a manor at the foot of the mountain.Liu Jin obviously knew people from the Gaoqi family, so he first brought the horse in the camel box and asked Zhang Yin and others to wait outside.

Not long after, Liu Jin and an old Japanese man wearing wooden clogs opened the village door and came out. The old man bowed first and said a few words in a chat.Liu Jin said: Gao Qijun invites Mr. Zhang!

Zhang Yin followed them into the village and then arrived in the house.There are many houses in this farm, but each one is very small, especially the corridor inside, which makes him feel depressed.

Gugu!An unknown bird cry came from the mountain outside, which made the manor at the foot of the mountain flat and quiet, and there was also an inexplicable horror.

Japan has a large population, but Zhang Yin's trip to the east twice, except for Heian Kyo and important ports in the south, few cities always make him feel like he is in a wilderness.

Zhang Yin is still quite accustomed to living in big cities like Chengdu Prefecture and Tokyo.

Wow!A wooden door was suddenly opened, and Zhang Yin didn't expect there to be a door there, which made him shocked.

I saw a wide-body fat man sitting in the house with his legs holding his hands.

There were a few women kneeling beside them.

The Japanese man knelt down and leaned forward, leaning forward, and said in a pride: Jili!

Zhang Yin turned to look at Liu Jin: ...

Liu Jin said: This is Gao Qijun. He welcomes Mr. Zhang and thanks for the gift.He turned to Takasaki Jun and clasped his fists and said the bird song that Zhang Yin could not understand.

The owner of Gaoqi Manor asked Zhang Yin to sit in front of the table with wine and food, and the women came up to pour wine. The women kneeling beside Zhang Yin also watched him watch the autumn waves.Zhang Yin naturally looked like he was not squinting.

Liu Jin and the owner of Gaoqi talked about it in words that they didn’t understand, then turned to Liu Jin and laughed in a low voice: This is not in Tokyo, and no one cares about it. The girl next to him will accompany Mr. Zhang tonight. Look, if you are not satisfied, ask Gaoqi Jun to change one. He has raised many maids.

Zhang Yin said in surprise: What kind of decency is this?

Liu Jin smiled and said: We have to follow the local customs. This is also what Mr. Takasaki wants, and not everyone can play!

Liu Jin talked to the owner of Gaoqi again, and the two laughed loudly, with a lewd look on their faces.

At this time, the owner of Gaoqi said slowly in Chinese with inaccurate pronunciation: It is not a polite thing to come but not go. Mr. Zhang is giving the next big gift. How should I repay it?

It turns out that this guy understands Chinese, so it’s much simpler.Zhang Yin said: I was disturbed by a visit for the first time and was warmly treated by the owner of Gaoqi. It was just a meeting gift. Please accept it with a smile.

Takasaki was overjoyed and picked up the wine glass and said: Please.

Zhang Yin then got up and drank it all. He felt that the wine was not very strong and said: Do it first to be respectful.

He knew very well that the Japanese treated him so enthusiastically for profit.

Takasaki said slowly with a little difficulty: Is Mr. Zhang a businessman?

Zhang Yin pondered for a moment: He has an official position in Xu State, but he just does some copying, a small official.I sell medicinal materials at home. Not to mention ordinary medicinal materials, I can get them even if I am Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng and other substances.

Haha... Gao Qi picked up the wine glass again, Mr. Zhang's gift was disrespectful.If I can deliver medicinal materials in the future, I will definitely pay a good price.

Zhang Yin said: I don’t know how much Gaoqi Jun needs.One thousand pounds a month?

Takasaki's eyes suddenly glared like a lantern: I'm afraid I can't afford that much capital, but I will find a way.

Zhang Yin immediately said: As long as Takasaki Jun is interested, the payment can be paid on credit first, but...

Takasaki's face was flushed and said anxiously: But what?
