Nara Castle was very strict in investigating, but they did not dare to investigate the Tang Dynasty envoy, so Tang Ping easily followed the envoy into Nara.
After being away for a few months, Nara has not changed much. The biggest thing is that a department store has just opened in the center of Nara. Within a few days of the opening event, it is said that most of the people in Nara came to rush to buy it.
"Brother Ping, you did this too, right?" Cheng Chumo knew without even looking that this must have something to do with Tang Ping.
Tang Ping nodded: "It is not easy for the people of the Tang Dynasty to do business in a foreign country, so we should pay attention to them."
Cheng Chumo smiled and said, "Then let's go support them today."
The envoys followed the provincial officials who received them in Fusang and entered the post house to settle down.
This Ministry of Administration is similar to the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty, and external affairs are also under their charge.
Cheng Chumo and the other two were the heads of the envoys. They left after saying that they wanted to visit Nara Castle.
Officials from the Ministry of Administrative Affairs quickly sent people to follow them, saying that they would be their guides.
So Cheng Chumo and Tang Ping took several provincial officials to the streets.
Tang Ping had stayed in Nara for a while, and the city was not big, so he took Cheng Chumo and the others from the front.
The guides from the Administrative Department couldn't get a word in, so they could only follow closely behind.
"To be honest, after coming to Fusang, my performance is no different from that in Datang." Cheng Chumo said.
"Yes!" Fang Yiai also said: "Whether it is their houses, the clothes they wear, or the words they speak, they are exactly the same as ours in the Tang Dynasty."
"Even among the vassal countries, they are considered the only ones."
After chatting, a few people came to the opposite side of the department store. It couldn't be said to be a huge crowd, but it could also be said to be packed.
The shopkeeper's sharp eyes actually recognized Tang Ping from a distance, and he walked over excitedly: "Shopkeeper Li, where have you been on this trip? Everyone wants to thank you!"
"Shopkeeper Li?" Cheng Chumo and the other two looked at Tang Ping strangely, and they understood after Tang Ping winked.
Tang Ping said with a smile: "It seems that your business is doing well!"
He completed the task of turning a profit at the convenience store branch more than half a month ago, so he no longer has to compete with these businessmen for profits.
"It all depends on shopkeeper Li's advice for everyone, and the way to get the goods from Tang's Trading Company." The shopkeeper said with a smile: "Did shopkeeper Li bring guests here today?"
"Hahaha, that's right." Tang Ping nodded at the two of them: "They are officials from the Tang Dynasty's envoy to Fusang. They come to see our Tang Dynasty people doing business in Fusang."
The shopkeeper felt weak at his feet. When he was in the Tang Dynasty, he had only seen the county magistrate in the county town at most, but here he actually saw the envoy from the Tang Dynasty to Fusang.
Just as they were about to receive the gift, there was some commotion in the department store. A man knocked away several people and ran out with his things in his arms.
"What's going on?" Tang Ping asked in surprise.
The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment, then said: "Business is so good, and then every few days these people come to make trouble. They pretend to be guests first, and then run away after choosing something to pay. It's really hard to guard against."
Fortunately, the man who had robbed things ran across the street. When he saw that Tang Ping and the others were crowded, he turned to run towards the street again.
"Brother Xue, help keep someone here!" Cheng Chu said quietly.
He naturally knows Xue Rengui's shooting ability.
Xue Rengui glanced at Tang Ping, who nodded. He took the bow and arrow directly from his back. He didn't even need to aim at this distance. He shot the arrow through the thief's calf.
He was already angry when he heard what the shopkeeper said just now. Now that Tang Ping agreed to let him keep the people, it was up to him how to keep the people.
And he also chose the most direct method.
The thief was holding his calves and wailing on the ground, and the things he had stolen were scattered all over the place.
The other Fuso people looked at this place in horror and did not dare to approach, leaving a large area of space around the thief.
"Sir, you...what are you...what are you doing?" The officials who accompanied Najibe were frightened.
No matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty is, you are still in our country of Fusang. Using bows and arrows to kill Fusang people in the street is... outrageous.
He just thought that Xue Rengui wanted to shoot the thief and missed.
"What are you doing? Can't you understand?" Cheng Chumo led the people over and picked up the scattered goods on the ground.
"These things were sold by our Datang merchants. If he hasn't paid for them yet, they belong to our Datang merchants."
"When will it be someone else's turn to snatch what belongs to us, the Tang Dynasty people?"
His face, which had inherited the ferocious look from Lao Cheng, widened with eyes. Not to mention the Fusang people who were watching, even the officials from the Ministry of Administration were frightened and took half a step back.
For a dandy like him who came from Chang'an City, when he heard what the shopkeeper said just now, he knew that it must be because the business was so good that it blocked the financial path of some Fuso nobles in Nara City.
These Fuso nobles obviously did not dare to go too far, but such disgusting things left Datang merchants with no good solution.
Even if I go to the official to sue the matter, I'm afraid that in the end I'll just leave it alone.
So he got the idea today!
"No one can rob the things belonging to the Tang Dynasty. If anyone dares to rob them, they must be prepared to suffer the consequences."
"If Fusang's government can't take care of it, then we, the Tang Dynasty people, will naturally take care of it!"
"No matter where we, the Tang Dynasty people, are in this world, we, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, will be there to protect us!"
On this street, only Cheng Chumo, Tang Ping and the shopkeepers were from the Tang Dynasty. There were probably hundreds of Fusang people gathered around to watch the excitement, on the three floors inside and outside.
But after Cheng Chumo said these powerful words, the Fusang people watching beside him fell silent, and no one dared to raise any objections.
Only the shopkeepers were shaking with excitement, and two dark-skinned men even shed tears.
Those of them who had traveled across the ocean to work hard in foreign lands finally felt the happiness of having a powerful Tang Dynasty as their backing.
Cheng Chumo and Fang Yiai picked up all the goods on the ground, returned them to the shopkeeper, and then carried the wailing thief to the officials of the Ministry of Administration.
"This is you Fusang. According to Fusang's laws, what should you do with this kind of person?"
The official from the Ministry of Administration lowered his head and said: "According to the Fusang Law, anyone who robs other people's property will be punished with a thirty-year rod and will be punished with three years of hard labor."
"Louder!" Cheng Chumo roared.
"According to the Fusang Law, anyone who robs other people's property will be punished with thirty rods and three years of hard labor."
"Okay." Cheng Chumo threw the thief at the feet of the provincial officials: "Remember what I said, if I, a merchant from the Tang Dynasty, are wronged again by you, if I don't come, someone else will come."
"Remember?"
