Bao Qing was very satisfied with the transaction, but the question arises again. How to deal with these twenty trucks of grain?

"Sir, are these Liao people really crazy? Not only is this food precious, but this horse is also an important military material. The Liao people usually prohibit selling horses to the Song Dynasty. I didn't expect that there will be so many good horses when I get it." Zhang Long said.

Bao Qing really didn't realize this problem. Twenty carts of grain were basically carts pulled by two horses. If this is the case, his business would be a big profit. This pound of tea could be exchanged for such military supplies. I am afraid that those important officials in the court would never think that they could do business like this when drinking tea.

"Please contact Commander Li to find a way to transport the food and horses back. At the same time, inform him and let him scramble to get close to Yizhou Grain Road, so as to support us at any time."

"Yes, sir! I'll do it now!" Zhang Long replied.

"Brother Bao, I really didn't expect that they actually used food to exchange tea." Cao Yun sighed.

"Drinking tea can make you addicted, especially the Liao people who eat meat all day long. I believe that too much gastrointestinal fat can help them clean their stomach and intestines. Of course, the tea tastes good too. Haha, I also think it is a drink!" Bao Qing said in anonymously, and Cao Yun was fooled and stunned.

Although the weather was cold along the way, Cao Yun was obviously a little excited and kept asking about this and that.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves came over.

"What did you find? So panicked!" Zhang Long couldn't help asking when he saw the detective cavalry's very anxious look.

"Sir, I found a Song caravan not far away, but the scouts sent by the caravan also saw us, and the other party seemed very scared, and when he found out, he turned around and ran away!"

"Since the Song people's caravan saw the Song people, they were all their own people anyway, so they should not be afraid. Is there any problem? Zhang Long, take some people to see it, and at the same time, they will be told to everyone to prepare for battle." Bao Qing said.

After the commander sent the order, all the soldiers immediately put the crossbow on the arrow box and placed it in the carriage to hide it.

Zhang Long pulled out a long Mo Dao from the horse's back, pulled off the cloth wrapped outside hard, clamped the horse's back with both legs, clamped the Mo Dao with one hand, and the horse neighed, and took more than a dozen crossbowmen and galloped away.

...

Let’s talk about the reconnaissance cavalry sent by the Thirteenth Prince, who reported that he had discovered the Song people’s caravan. As soon as the words fell, Zhang Long could be seen from afar, and he had already rushed up with a team of men.

"Where is a caravan? It's a cavalry! Take a look at the guys and prepare for the battle!" Hu Fei shouted.

"No, if the other party is in an army, there will definitely be reinforcements nearby. If we are discovered, we can't escape at all. Now we can only continue to pretend to be a business trip, and everyone hide all their weapons! Hurry up." The Thirteenth Prince said anxiously.

After a while, Zhang Long and his soldiers arrived.

"Who are you? Where are you going?" Zhang Long immediately held his sword and asked loudly.

Upon hearing this, the Thirteenth Prince had to drive him forward and answer.

"We are merchants near Bazhou. We took the goods to Yizhou for sale, and wanted to change the price."

"Don't you know that Song and Liao are fighting? Are you afraid of any accidents? Open the cargo box and take a look." Zhang Long shouted.

Although the Thirteenth Prince was a little reluctant, he opened the box. Zhang Long looked at it and it was just some cloth. Without checking all the boxes one by one, Zhang Long waved his hand and said, "Let's go, be careful on the road!" After that, he took people away.

"Looking at the appearance of this young general, he should be a border army, and there are more than a dozen people behind him, all of them are crossbowmen. Fortunately, we were not exposed, otherwise we would be in trouble." said the Thirteenth Prince.

Zhang Long returned Bao Qing, just an ordinary caravan.

"Why are the merchants of the Song Dynasty so desperately making money? The two countries are at war, and they still have the interest and courage to directly cross the war zone to sell goods!" Bao Qing couldn't help but think that if it were in his own era, once the two countries fought, they should evacuate their overseas Chinese quickly and stop all commercial activities, so they would not have to exchange their lives for money.

Of course, the more dangerous it is, the greater the profit the goods sold will be. Just like myself, sell some luxury goods such as tea.

"Have you checked the goods? They ran to Yizhou to do business with cold and war all the way. What did they sell?" Bao Qing was a little curious.

"It seems to be a cloth," Zhang Long said.

"oh."

"Haha, what a fool. What money can I make when I get cloth in Yizhou? The profit is too thin. Why not sell some porcelain and tea?" Cao Yun laughed after hearing this.

Bao Qing heard Cao Yun laughing. At first, he felt that Cao Yun was saying something, but then he realized it immediately and hurriedly said, "No, this caravan is strange! Let's go and go and take a look. Let's see what caravan it is!"

The Thirteenth Prince just thought he had gotten rid of the trouble, but he never expected that the trouble that had just left was now chasing again. Zhang Long received Bao Qing's order and knew that he had been negligent, so he chased him again and ordered the soldiers to surround the caravan.

"What does this mean?"

"I'm sorry, you wait a moment and wait for our adults to come and ask questions!" Zhang Long replied.

"Your sir?"

Suddenly, there were more cavalrymen behind the soldier. A young man dressed in a merchant drove forward and laughed loudly: "Their master is me, Bao Qing! Is the prince okay?"

Bao Qing recognized the Thirteenth Prince at a glance and was overjoyed. As the saying goes, he searched for something without any effort. This time the transaction of tea exchange for grain was really worth it, and there was an unexpected gain.

"It's you? Lord Bao, the imperial envoy?" The Thirteenth Prince was really shocked.

His guard Hu Fei and a group of guards showed off their weapons and protected the Thirteenth Prince.

"Protect the prince and prepare to rush out!" Hu Fei roared.

"Don't move, you don't want to live anymore? I'm a hundred or so people are all crossbowmen. As long as you dare to move, you will be shot into a hornet's nest immediately." Bao Qing said.

"I have put down my weapons, and I admit defeat. But I really didn't expect that Lord Bao had such skills and kept chasing him out of the border. Since the imperial envoy received the emperor's order, I don't want to make things difficult for you. Do whatever you want! I just hope Lord Bao can spare my followers. They worked hard to follow me for many years, but I don't have anything left for them! Alas!" The Thirteenth Prince sighed.

"Prince!" the guards shouted sadly.

"Prince, I, Bao Qing, also want to ask you something! Can you persuade the Liao army to leave! Let General Cao be released."

"I'm afraid I don't have this ability."
