Going north from Jicheng, all roads have now been occupied by the Wuhuan people.
The two county towns of Pinggang and Wujing have now been looted by the Wuhuan people.
Not to mention whether they would be attacked by Wuhuan people if they went north along the way.
The supply of food and grass alone is already a problem. With the attitude the Yan people are showing now, how dare Liu Deng hand over his back to them!
Anyone can see that occupying these two places will indeed put a lot of pressure on the Wuhuan people.
Because if the Wuhuan people want to continue going south, they will easily be outflanked from both front and rear.
In particular, the terrain of Pinggang is very dangerous. As long as ten thousand troops are guarding here, none of the Wuhuan people can escape.
Although Tuoba Lie was stupid, he didn't even send someone to guard his own retreat.
Letting Luan Bu and Liu board the troops would mean fighting for them.
"So the general didn't agree, he just said everything is waiting for the king's decision!"
The emperor personally agreed in the Xuanshi Palace. If Liu Deng and King Yan disagreed, Liu Deng's will would prevail.
In other words, although Liu Deng was a guest army, Liu Deng could control King Yan.
"If he comes to see the general again, just put all the blame on me. I'll leave it to His Highness King Yan to do it himself for the army's march north to Pinggang! As for the movement of our army, everything will be left to King Yan." We’ll talk about it after His Highness’s supplies of food, grass and weapons arrive!”
"promise!"
After hearing what Liu Deng said, Luan Bu immediately agreed.
"Let's stop here today. The general is also on his way, so let's take a rest below the city for the time being!"
"promise!"
After meeting Liu Deng, Luan Bu's heart became much brighter. Anyway, he just had to obey Liu Deng's orders.
As for the matter of wrestling with King Yan, let it be left to Liu Deng.
After coming out of the military camp, Liu Deng took Shunzi all the way to Jicheng.
Although the situation is tense now, Jicheng is still as prosperous as ever.
The shops on both sides of the road are still lively. Looking at this place alone, there is really no atmosphere of war.
"Let them go back first. You can take a few people to follow me around the city!"
The central urban area of Jicheng was approximately outside Guang'an Gate, the capital of later generations.
So Liu Deng has different feelings towards this city...
However, while Liu Deng was wandering around, a black-covered carriage quietly made a large circle in Panyu City.
"The South Vietnam Kingdom looks ordinary, but the city of Yu is indeed quite big..."
In the carriage, Zhao Wengu whispered to a middle-aged man next to him while looking at the scene outside.
"Yes, I never thought that such a large city could be born in this Lingnan land..."
"Not only is the city vast, but there is also an endless stream of business travelers along the way, and all the shops are really dazzling. It is worthy of someone who started out as a sea trader..."
After probably walking around Panyu City, coupled with constant observation over the past few days, Zhao Wengu also had a general understanding of this capital of South Vietnam.
"They have all been targeted by King Dai, so what if they are richer?"
"Mr. Qin, you can't say this. If you say it like this, it seems like we are all robbers on the road..."
Zhao Wengu pursed his lips and smiled as he spoke. Although what Mr. Qin said was true, it did sound a bit harsh.
"It's the one who's below, it's no longer the one who's below, it's the one who's below, it's no longer the case!"
Even though Zhao Wengu was a woman, Mr. Qin did not dare to show any disrespect to Zhao Wengu.
Although he is a popular person around the eldest princess, it turns out that he has been taking charge of various businesses for the eldest princess.
But compared with Zhao Wengu, the businesses he did were really inferior.
Just one Splendid Bank is now enough to make all the merchants of this great man look up to him.
Coupled with the training Zhao Wengu has given them in the past few months.
Compared to the plan they were about to launch, the previous transactions they had made were like children's play house.
"Okay, we should have almost all the manpower here. I think after finishing this lunch, let's get started..."
Zhao Wengu chuckled lightly, then looked at Mr. Qin and said.
"promise!"
Mr. Qin smiled and arched his hands towards Zhao Wengu, and then agreed.
"Then we have to have a good meal today, and I think this Baifeng Tower is the best!"
“The name is really good, but I don’t know how the food is!”
Mr. Qin also said with great fun.
"Would you know if you go in and try it?"
Zhao Wengu chuckled lightly, and then knocked on the carriage.
The coachman immediately pulled over the carriage and the two of them entered the most luxurious Baifeng Tower in Panyu City.
The food in Lingnan is indeed different from that in the north, but compared with the food in Prince Dai's Mansion, it is indeed not a bit different, but the good thing is that it is fresher.
An hour later, Zhao Wengu's carriage finally stopped at a manor outside Panyu City.
"Send the order and let everyone start!"
After getting off the carriage, Zhao Wengu ordered with a serious face.
"promise!"
Mr. Qin responded and then headed towards the backyard.
Moments later, hundreds of homing pigeons took to the air.
Since then, the Lingnan countries have been in dire straits and are out of control...
As the earliest pioneer of the Maritime Silk Road and the earliest beneficiary of maritime trade.
The most profitable businesses in the entire South Vietnam country are naturally lacquerware and silk weaving.
As the capital of South Vietnam, there are more than 70 shops selling raw lacquer in Fanyu City alone.
Hu Jianping's lacquer shop is one of the famous ones, but the situation in the past two days has made him a little confused.
Now is the time for raw lacquer harvesting. Logically speaking, the price of raw lacquer should be at its lowest at this time of year.
But this year is different. In just two days, the prices of all raw lacquers near Yucheng suddenly increased by 20%.
This made many lacquer merchants complain, but it made all lacquer merchants overjoyed.
"Shopkeeper, it's gone up again! It's gone up again! The price on the Deheng has gone up another 10%!"
When Hu Jianping was about to post today's price, the boy outside the door rushed over again.
"It's gone up again? This is already more than the price in winter!"
Hu Jianping was a little confused. The Deheng was the raw lacquer signpost in the entire South Vietnam, and their prices were the weathervane for everyone.
Not only because of their strong background, but more importantly, the quality of their raw lacquer is absolutely the best.
However, raw lacquer is a commodity after all. As long as it is a commodity, it will naturally have a recognized price.
Under normal circumstances, only when orders surge and supply exceeds demand will Dehenghao choose to increase prices.
The approximate price of raw lacquer almost always has its own set of rising and falling rules. This year's situation is something that has never been seen before.
"Shopkeeper, shall we increase the price?"
