Turkic Smoke 168 A Gentleman Has No Overnight Enmity

Congratulations, Mr. Yinshan!”

Upstairs of Xihe, Cui Zhongqing bowed to Tang Ping.

"But I am just waiting for the newlyweds in Yinshan, so I shouldn't be at home..."

As he said that, he winked at Tang Ping.

"Ahem!" This is all about tears when I talked too much about this. Tang Ping didn't even raise his head when he had breakfast at home this morning.

Now he feels that his main goal is to break through the relationship between him and Wang Qingluan to the next stage.

But now...

What is there to say? A gentleman has no overnight revenge!

Well, that's what it said. This time, Lu Dongzan from Tubo came to cause trouble again. The other envoys from various countries gave him a generous gift. Tang Ping did not plan to settle for this account.

But Tubo is not that simple. If you are not kind, don’t blame me for being unrighteous.

"This time I came to see Brother Cui, I actually want to negotiate a big business."

"Oh, big business?" Cui Zhongqing was inspired. Recently, aristocratic families, especially big families like them, are basically doing things with their tails.

The powerful cannon of the Tang Dynasty is in the hands of the royal family. Apart from being intimidating the envoys of various countries, don’t think that these aristocratic families are better.

Now the Tang Dynasty officials are clearly trying to weaken the rights of major families.

And in this world, who always has the final say for who has the biggest fist.

The Li Tang royal family, who possesses the powerful cannon of the Tang Dynasty, is the person with the biggest fist now, so their rules are rules now.

These aristocratic families can only hide their strengths and maintain a low profile.

This is not the first time such a thing is a family that has been around for hundreds of years. Who has not encountered such an era of prosperity in imperial power?

Whenever this happens, these families will act in a low-key manner and slowly accumulate their foundation.

When the next time the royal power weakens, come out again to stand at the forefront.

Only those who cannot see the situation clearly in the Wang family will think of seizing the royal power and taking the position themselves.

Seeing that Cui Zhongqing was interested, Tang Ping did not beat around the bush. He said that among the aristocratic families, Cui Zhongqing was the one who enjoyed him the most.

"Now, Tubo nobles have a lot of money in their hands!"

Cui Zhongqing nodded. How could they not know that the Tang Dynasty bought wool from Tubo at a high price?

Even based on the amount of wool purchased, they even knew how much money Tubo received.

However, their Cui family has always been in the grain business. This time, the Tang Dynasty strictly prohibited grain exports, and the cultivation of potatoes has an impact on the traditional grain structure and industry.

The Cui family has been dealing with this problem now, so even if they know that the Tubo people are rich now, it is difficult for their Cui family to get a share of it.

"Yinshan Hou, just say it straight, what do you want our Cui family to do?"

"Just!" Tang Ping gave a thumbs up: "I want the Cui family's shipping channel!"

"The Cui family's shipping channel?" Cui Zhongqing looked at Tang Ping and asked, "How much does it cost?"

Tang Ping asked him for a channel for shipping goods, but he was not surprised, because Tang Ping could find him, and this is probably the only useful thing for the Cui family.

Even with Tang Ping's status, he did not believe that Tang Ping really dared to smuggle grain to Tubo, so the only thing left was their Cui family's transportation channels.

In the past, the Cui family also bought beef and mutton from Tubo for a long time, and then sold the grain from the Tang Dynasty to Tubo to make profits.

However, now the export of grain to Tubo is prohibited, and the route is cut off.

But those who distributors are still there.

But don’t underestimate these people who distribute goods. In ancient times, large goods on the highway were not sent away as soon as they were pulled.

That is all about traversing mountains and rivers, and the hardships in them are not worthy of being told by outsiders.

A mature caravan, if you go to Tubo, you will definitely be faster and more cost-effective than the newly built caravan.

Apart from the terrain, it is not easy to manage various forces along the way.

So what Tang Ping liked was the people who had traded grain with Tubo, that is, the Cui family's transportation channel.

Moreover, Li Shimin could not just suppress the aristocratic family, what he wanted was a balance.

If the aristocratic family is really suppressed completely, then emerging aristocrats like Cheng Zhijie and Yuchi Gong will have no opponents.

Therefore, the weakness of aristocratic families can only be weakness of a certain range.

A more obedient family like the Cui family should still support it.

This is one of the reasons why Tang Ping took the initiative to come to Cui Zhongqing.

"I'll ship it to you, and the price will be agreed upon first. Then you can only sell these things to Tubo, but how much you can sell is your business. Even if you sell something worth a penny, I will definitely not be jealous."

The government cannot print money endlessly, which will lead to society

Inflation, the Tang Dynasty spent so much real money to buy things in Tubo, so naturally it was necessary to find a way to make it back.

The Cui family is their agent, and the merchants are pursuing profits. If the Cui family is set, their enthusiasm is probably not very high.

Now that Tang Ping has spoken, how much it can be sold is their Cui family's ability, so the Cui family will definitely do its best.

"What are some of them?"

Cui Zhongqing asked, this is the key to the problem. Some things have high profits, while others have low profits. It takes a long time to travel back and forth in such a long distance. If the profits are low, the Cui family would not be so willing.

"Mirror, tea brick, perfume, soap, cardigan!"

Every time Tang Ping said that, Cui Zhongqing's eyelids twitched.

These are all luxury goods.

I won’t talk about the mirror anymore. When the envoys from all countries came, they all begged for something to buy.

Tea bricks are also a necessity for daily life over there.

As for perfume, soap is also something that local nobles are extremely popular with. It is not easy to take a bath on the plateau. In addition, their daily diet always makes them have a mutton smell, so there is a huge demand for perfumes and soaps.

There is also the new top-notch wool sweater in Chang'an now.

These clothes made of wool thread are not only beautiful, but also light and warm, and are much more comfortable than those wrapped in fur coats layer by layer.

Nowadays, there are many ladies in Chang'an City, especially some styles hand-woven by women in Shanghe Village, which are all popular in the royal family.

If they were selling these things, Cui Zhongqing believed that even if the price given by Tang Ping was twice that of Changan's retail price, their Cui family still had huge profit margins.

"We have taken this job with our Choi family."

Cui Zhongqing nodded directly and agreed.

The fool would not accept such a thing. I guess he could come to the Cui family because he had such a hint of incense with Tang Ping in the past.

"Okay, then we'll just say the price, let's give it to you according to the retail price of Changan!"

The quantity of wholesale and the price of retail sales are the capitalists of Tang Ping's era who have to cry when they come.

But Cui Zhongqing was so grateful that he grabbed Tang Ping's hand and said, "Brother Tang, I really read you right. I, Cui Zhongqing, have recorded this love!"
