"Taiji." Li Shuheng said, "I came here this time in the hope that Taiji would allow our Tiger Flag to open a store in Ulut."
"I'm just opening a shop in our Ulut tribe." Namul Taiji looked at Li Shuheng with a smile.
When Li Shuheng looked directly into the other person's eyes, it seemed as if the other person's eyes could penetrate directly into people's hearts, and all the secrets in his heart were exposed at once.
He knew in his heart that the old Taiji in front of him was extraordinary, and he felt more pressure than the fortune teller Khan in Qingcheng.
After gathering his thoughts, he said, "To be honest with Taiji, if possible, I hope that wherever the commercial road goes, there will be shops opened by Tiger Flag."
"But what good does this do to me?" Namu'er asked with a smile.
Li Shuheng said sternly, "If the shops of Tiger Character Banner can be opened on the grassland, as much benefit as Shitu Khan will get in the future, Taiji will also get as much benefit."
Namu'er stroked his white beard and said, "He is the Great Khan and I am Taiji. Your tiger-character flags must be the same."
Li Shuheng said, "Whether it is the Ming Dynasty or Mongolia, their strength speaks for themselves. I don't think the Great Khan of Fortune Rabbit will have any objections."
"You can make the decision?" Namu'er asked again.
Li Shuheng said, "Before I came down to the grassland, my proprietor had already set the rules. I will only pass the news on my proprietor's behalf."
"Your proprietor is very courageous." Namu'er said with a smile, "I am very curious about your proprietor. When you Ming people hear the name of the Great Khan, especially the Great Khan of our Tumote, you must I will give all the benefits to the Great Khan, not to an old and frail Taiji like me."
Li Shuheng clasped his fists and said, "Taiji is always strong and strong, and its reputation is still spread on the grassland."
Namu'er is the grandson of Ada Khan. Because Sanniangzi wanted to support her grandson Su Nangtaiji to become the king of Shunyi, he gathered seventy-three Taijis to attack Sunangtaiji and forced Sanniangzi to submit, which made Sanniangzi and Bu Shitu got married, and then Bu Shitu succeeded Tumut's throne.
It can be said that Na Muer helped him fight for the position of Bu Shitu, otherwise the people living in the Qingcheng Khan tent would probably be Su Nang.
Namur laughed twice and said, "I will send people to Qingcheng to tell the Khan that my Ulut Department supports your Tiger Flag to open shops on the grassland."
"Thank you Taiji." Li Shuheng cupped his hand.
With the support of Namultai Ji, he knew that the matter of Huziqi coming to open a shop on the grassland was solved.
In the evening, Namu'er summoned Taiji from all parties to attend the meeting.
These Taijis will all be the beneficiaries of the Tiger-Character Banner Trade Road in the future. Each one of them enthusiastically exchanged glasses with Li Shuheng. Even Tan Zaiwang drank cup after glass of the koumiss offered by Mongolian Taijis.
After a Mongolian banquet, Li Shuheng, Tan Zaiwang and others were drunk and unconscious. Only the two soldiers on duty at night remained awake.
When he woke up the next day, Li Shuheng said goodbye.
Namu'er didn't try to persuade him to stay, but just told him that he had sent someone to Qingcheng.
The next thing went very smoothly. With the support of Namur Taiji, Hu Ziqi's decision to open shops on the grassland was agreed by Shitu Khan and many Taiji.
"Is the Zhao family ahead?"
Li Shuheng left Qingcheng and took the remaining goods with him to Bansheng City, where Su Nangtaiji was located.
"Yes, this is the Zhao family." Tan Zaiwang said, "The leader of the Tumote Han merchants is the Zhao family, and the Zhao family has been doing business for the Mongols since the Anda Khan period, which has been more than fifty years."
In front of you is a house of a wealthy family. There is a plaque hanging on the red door with the two characters "Zhao Zhai" written on it.
"Go and call the door," Li Shuheng ordered.
Tan Zaiwang got off his horse, walked to the red lacquer door, and clicked the nose of the door with his hand, making a bang bang bang sound.
"Who is it?" Someone shouted from inside the door.
Tan Zaiwang stood outside the door and said, "We are businessmen from Datong and want to meet Mr. Zhao."
"Wait a minute."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps came from the Zhao family's residence.
Soon, the red-lacquered door was opened by someone inside, and half of a middle-aged man dressed as a servant was revealed from inside.
Tan Zaiwang cupped his hands and said, "We are businessmen from Datong. We would like to pay a visit to Mr. Zhao. Could you please tell me?"
"You guys wait here." After the servant of Zhao Mansion finished speaking, he stepped back and the door was closed again.
Tan Zaiwang was not knocking on the door, but was waiting on the stone steps outside the door.
After a short time, the door was opened, and a servant of the Zhao family came out and said, "Follow me."
Li Shuheng got off the horse, took Tan Zaiwang, and followed the servants of the Zhao family towards the house.
As soon as you enter the courtyard gate, you will see two pomegranate trees, surrounded by a circle made of stones, and further inside is a flower bed with many flowers and plants planted on it.
Underfoot is a road paved with bluestones, which leads to another courtyard.
After passing through a moon gate and walking less than fifty steps, a few people walked up a corridor, winding through several houses, and finally arrived in front of the pavilion beside the lotus pond.
"You guys wait here, I'll go report it." Zhao's servants warned him, then turned around and walked towards the pavilion.
In the middle of the pavilion is a stone table. An old man is sitting on it. Next to it are two young maids dressed as Han Chinese, waiting on him.
"Old Master, we are here." A servant of the Zhao family stood at the edge of the pavilion and said respectfully.
"Let them come over," the old man in the pavilion said calmly.
A maid nearby picked up a grape from the plate on the stone table, peeled it, and fed it to the old man.
"The score is really big." Tan Zaiwang, who was a little further away, muttered when he saw this scene.
After Li Shuheng heard this, he glared at him and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense."
At this time, the servants of the Zhao Mansion waved to Li Shuheng and others, motioning them to come over.
The place where they were originally was not far from the pavilion. After walking a few steps, they arrived in front of the pavilion. Li Shuheng was about to walk into the pavilion.
The servant of the Zhao family standing outside the pavilion raised his hand to stop him and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it here. There is no need to go over."
"Here." Li Shuheng was stunned, and looked up at Old Mrs. Zhao in the pavilion. He found that the other party didn't even look at him, and seemed to acquiesce to the servant's words.
"What do you mean by my family?"
Before Tan Zaiwang finished speaking, he was stopped by Li Shuheng, and he only heard him say, "It's the same standing here."
Mr. Zhao in the pavilion picked up the tureen on the stone table, stirred the tea inside, and asked, "Fan Yongdou asked you to come here."
"Mr. Zhao misunderstood." Li Shuheng said, "We are members of the Tiger Flag of Datong Prefecture."
