Chapter 200: Cheap business!
In the south courtyard, Li Min was dressed neatly. Today was the day to receive the goods. He had to go back and bring back those artificial jewels. Cui Yingying was still lying on the bed at this time. It was much longer than before, and after Su Mo\'er tried the superior comfort of this set of beds, she pestered Li Yin to buy her a set. Li shipped a set to her.
Riding a horse and taking the guards to the Central Army camp on the south side of Yizhou, Li Yin ordered no one to disturb him and then went to his exclusive office building in the Central Army camp. Except for the Nanhe warehouse, he felt that this place It is the best place for him to transfer things.
Back to modern times, Li Yan successfully connected with the manufacturer, and hundreds of thousands of goods were loaded into four trucks, and each truck was filled with artificial jewelry packed in different cardboard boxes.
After the transport personnel from the factory left, Li Yin cut open the cartons with a knife and checked them one by one. The hundred or so large cartons were enough for him to toss around for a while.
Suddenly got Li Yin as a big customer, the manufacturer implemented Li Yin’s request meticulously, after inspecting the items, Li Yin felt very satisfied, white pearls, black pearls, sapphires, rubies, opals. Emeralds, agates, glass products, and jade bracelets are all available, and the sizes are also different. Among the sapphires, there are those as big as the palm of your hand and as big as the cover of your finger. So many jewels piled up make Li Min dazzled, but they are also pleasing to the eye. These things are worthless in modern times. In ancient times, they were priceless jewels, even priceless treasures. The ignorant people were astonished and overjoyed. Li Yin received these things in the ring, and Li Yin returned to the barracks.
Finding a chair in the room and sitting down, Li Yin took out an egg-sized sapphire from it and looked at it. The surface was smooth and blue like the sky. The crystal clear appearance is very beautiful, but from the appearance, this sapphire is exactly the same as the real gem.
Placing the sapphire on the table, Li Yin took out a small pile of jewels. Among them was a glazed ball with a diameter of six centimeters. This glazed ball was dark green, with traces of milky white mixed with the green, as if green had been added to the milk.
"Your Highness!"
Li Yan was admiring the glass ball when a voice sounded outside. It was Qin Huaiyu who was calling outside. Since the Zheng sisters stayed temporarily in the palace, the number of times this kid went to Li Yin has risen linearly. And every time I look for Li Yin, he is absent-minded, his words are out of tune, and his pair of thief eyes always wander around, obviously because he is drunk and not interested in drinking.
"Come in!" Li Yin replied.
After the Central Army was stationed in the south of the city, Qin Huaiyu and Zhu Youzhi, one of the commanders, often came to the barracks to inspect the training of the soldiers. After Niu Jinda returned to Songzhou, he politely declined Li Yin\'s decision to let him join the Central Army, and was still stationed in Songzhou. state.
In fact, Li Yin\'s letting Niu Jinda enter the Central Army was just to express an attitude to Li Shimin, so that Li Shimin could feel at ease. However, it may be because he thought too much. He thought that Niu Jinda would accept it, but unexpectedly he refused. But from another perspective, Li Shimin was also very relieved of him.
Qin Huaiyu opened the door and came in. He saw that Li Yin was playing with a beautiful green gemstone. There were also a pile of colorful gemstones on the table. Among them were pearls as big as pigeon eggs. There were twenty or thirty pearls. He was very surprised. Li Yin never liked it. These things, how to play this.
"The routine inspection is over?" Li Yin rolled the glass ball around on the table.
Qin Huaiyu nodded, he just came for a routine inspection, but after hearing that Li Yin was also here, he came over to say hello, "It\'s over, these recruits are really worrying."
In addition to the veterans from Songzhou, there are many new recruits in the Chengnan Camp. The veterans and recruits total 15,000 people. These people constitute the main force of the Central Army.
"You have to suffer for a while. After a while, some students from military academies will be selected to join the army. Some of them have good military accomplishments. There is no need to study for two or three years." The current situation of the army is A thousand soldiers are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. Li Min intends to let some outstanding students enter the army in advance, but they are still registered in the academy. They arrange a few months to come back to study every year, which can be regarded as practice and study.
Qin Huaiyu also felt the same way, and nodded repeatedly.
Li Yin was going to meet Murong Shun, so he found a piece of silk to wrap these things, and threw the glazed ball to Qin Huaiyu, Qin Huaiyu was startled and immediately caught it, he said: "Your Highness, what is this?" ?”
"I gave it to you, how can I not give something to please girls?" After finishing speaking, he left the room in a swaggering manner, leaving a sentence, "I still want to find Murong Shun, you can go to the palace by yourself!" Qin Huaiyu wanted to drop by and go back to the palace with Li Yin, but Li Yin\'s heart was clear.
Qin Huaiyu picked up the glazed beads in his hand and looked them over carefully. Although he didn\'t understand this very well, the beauty of colored glaze beads was unquestionable, and he had also seen those glazed products displayed by rich and noble people. They were ugly and expensive. The glazed ball that Li Yin gave him surpassed all the colored glazes he had ever seen. Even the glazed ball that was said to be bestowed by the emperor in Yi Guogong\'s mansion was not as big or as beautiful.
Qin Huaiyu was very moved. Since meeting Li Yin, Li Yin has been helping him all the time. Now, in order to win Zheng Binglan\'s favor, he even gave him this priceless treasure.
Li Yin couldn\'t see Qin Huaiyu\'s expression at this time, but he probably felt ashamed when he saw it, because such a glazed ball cost more than ten yuan in modern times.
Under the **** of the palace guards, Li Yin entered the mansion. Wang Gui will take Murong Shun to Chang\'an tomorrow, and the slave trade must be implemented today.
Murong Shun in the mansion was thinking about what price Li Yin would exchange for his servants, when Li Yin came in with his guards.
"Your Highness!"
"Famous King Murong!"
Li Yan saluted back, put the cloth bag in his hand on the stone table in front of Murong Shun, and opened it layer by layer.
Murong Shun stared at Li Yin\'s movements until the last layer of silk was lifted, and a pile of egg-sized gemstones appeared in front of him. There were more than 20 large pearls on the gemstones, dazzling the eyes under the sunlight.
"Your Highness, what is this?" Murong Shun was amazed that Li Yin brought so many jewels. As a prince, he had never seen gold, silver and jewels before, but the things Li Yin brought were all quite big. In terms of understanding, the absolute value is priceless, some of them are even priceless.
Li Yin smiled and said, "Are these things enough?"
"Your Highness intends to trade these jewels?" Murong asked.
"That\'s right, you should know the value of these things, and Tuyuhun is close to the east-west trade route, and very close to Persia. These gems are the favorites of Persian nobles. Selling them to those Persian merchants will definitely make a lot of money. Enough You have recruited a group of troops, haven\'t you?" Li Yin sat down and said.
Tuyuhun is very close to Persia, and he can reach Persia in a few days on horseback, and he also heard that the Persian nobles are very fond of colorful gems, these gems can quickly be turned into money, and pearls are of great importance to both Tang Dynasty and Persia. It is an expensive jewelry.
Murong Shun sat down slowly, staring at dozens of egg-sized gemstones of different colors, he said: "Deal, Murong Shun will hand over the servant to you."
Li Yin smiled secretly in his heart, but said on his mouth: "So happy to cooperate!"
Murong Shun nodded excitedly, and reached out to grab the gemstone, but Li Yin\'s hand was faster than him, and put it on the gemstone again.
"Has Your Highness regretted it?" Murong Shun was a little sullen.
Li Yin shook his hand, and gave Murong Shun ten of the dozens of precious stones, "This is the deposit, and the one just now is all. If you follow the rules, the rest will still be yours. If you don\'t follow the rules, then the rest will be yours." That’s another matter.” Those who drink enough from the spring often leave the well, and the half-fed and half-starved tiger will listen to the animal trainer, and Li Yin took out these gems as bait, proving that he can provide these gems.
Murong Shun is like a hungry person at this time, but Li Yin gave him a piece of bread, but it turned out to be one-third. After eating this piece, he will definitely stare at the rest.
"Then how can Your Highness give me the rest?" Murong Shun only had gems in his eyes at this time, because gems can be exchanged for soldiers, horses and food, and soldiers and horses, money and food can keep the throne.
Li Yin said: "It\'s very simple. The transaction place is outside Songzhou City. Every time you trade, the king will pay you gems according to the number of slaves and servants until the transaction is over. Of course, if you want to continue the transaction, the king will continue to pay. There is no deadline for this deal."
Li Yin\'s doing so was tantamount to blocking Murong Shun\'s source of income. He had to do things for Li Yin because of gems. After thinking about it, although he doubted whether Li Yin would be able to fulfill his promise, it was obvious that he had no better way.
"Okay!" After pondering for a while, Murong Shun agreed to Li Yin\'s condition.
The sun rose to the middle of the sky, and the golden light reflected on the gemstone, as if a raging flame was burning in the gemstone. Li Yin smiled and left. From now on, Murong Shun will be completely reduced to Li Yin\'s slave trader.
After successfully completing the task of the transaction, Li Yin returned to the palace. As soon as he entered the south courtyard, he saw Cui Yingying and Zheng\'s sisters gathered together. Cui Yingying was playing with glazed beads in her hands. But he looked at the glass beads enviously.
Obviously, Qin Huaiyu had already been here, and even gave the glass beads to Zheng Binglan as a gift. In an instant, Li Yin felt that he was really evil. (To be continued..)
