"This is already the fourth convoy of goods sent by the horse bandits from the Tiger Flag."
Several Han people dressed in young and strong clothes unloaded the goods from the car and carried them into the yurt behind them.
There was a lot of grain packed in sacks on the cart. Two young and strong men, one carrying it in front and the other carrying it in the back, unloaded it from the cart and carried it into the yurt.
"Brother, when were you captured?" The young man walking in front tilted his head and asked the person behind him who was carrying the sack with him.
The man carrying the sacks behind said in a muffled voice, "A little earlier than you."
The person walking in front said again, "I came to the grassland with the convoy last time and was arrested by them. Brother, were you the first group to be arrested or the second group? I heard that the first group of people arrested were all members of the Fan family. .”
The Fanji Chamber of Commerce sent a fleet of trucks to the grassland on more than one trip, and there were more than just the Fan family members accompanying the truck. There were also guys sent to the grassland by other members of the chamber of commerce, and many of the guys didn't know each other.
"Yeah." The person following behind responded.
The man in front continued, "Fan Ji Chamber of Commerce has already robbed four fleets of vehicles by the Tiger Flag. How come the proprietors of Fan Ji Chamber of Commerce haven't made any movement at all? Maybe they don't know that all the goods have been robbed?"
"No." The man behind said two words.
While the two of them were talking, they had already reached the yurt.
As soon as the sacks were placed on the grain pile, the man behind him turned around and walked out.
"Brother, walk slower, we have to carry the sacks together." The talkative man hurriedly chased after him.
However, this time, the other party did not carry the sacks with him. Instead, he picked up some tea cakes on the cart and moved them to the yurt alone.
"What a weirdo." The man muttered, and had to find other people to carry the sacks containing grain with him.
In front of a yurt not far from these people, Li Shuheng stood in front of the yurt with a smile and said to the Mongolians who came over, "General Jamuka, why are you free to come here today?"
"I am following the orders of the Great Khan," Jamukha said.
"Come in quickly, it's too cold outside. General, please go inside the yurt to warm yourself up." Li Shuheng enthusiastically invited Jamuhe into the yurt.
There is a large stove in the yurt, and the briquettes inside are burning red. As soon as you open the thick curtain at the door, you can feel the heat inside.
"It's quite warm in your yurt, warmer than Dahan's sweat tent."
As soon as Jamuhe entered the yurt, he felt that it was warmer than any other yurt he had been to before. He only stood in the yurt for a while, and most of the chill in his body was driven away.
The space in the yurt is not too big. There is a low couch on the innermost side, which takes up nearly half of the space.
"What is this?" Jamuka's eyes were attracted by the stove placed in the center.
Li Shuheng pointed to the stove and explained with a smile, "This is a coal stove developed by our Hu Zi Banner. It burns briquettes. You can keep warm while boiling water or cooking at the same time."
"No wonder your yurt is so warm. It turns out there is such a good thing." Jamua surrounded the coal stove and felt the warmth radiating from it, and was amazed.
I thought that if I brought this thing to the Great Khan, the Great Khan would definitely like it.
Li Shuheng smiled and said, "If the general likes it, I will have someone prepare one to take back. Then my people will teach the general how to use this thing."
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Li. I really like this thing."
Jamuka did not refuse. The winter in their grassland was too cold. With this thing to keep warm, the winter would be easier to endure.
Li Shuheng smiled and said, "Haha, you're welcome, general. It's a pity that we don't have many tiger flags like this. Otherwise, I would have someone prepare a few more for the general to take back."
"One is enough," Jamukha said. "I have long been used to burning dried cow dung in my yurt. I will bring this coal stove back to the Great Khan."
Li Shuheng said with a smile, "Don't worry, general. We have already made preparations for the Great Khan. The general should keep it for himself."
"You also prepared a coal stove for the Great Khan" Jamukha looked surprised.
Li Shuheng said, "These coal stoves were delivered only in the past two days. When the general returns, I will send someone to go to Qingcheng with the general to present the coal stoves that have been prepared to the Khan."
Jamukha smiled and said, "You Tiger Character Flag has a heart."
"General, you're welcome." Li Shuheng said with a smile, "Our Tiger Flag would also like to thank the Great Khan and the General for their continued care. Now that we have something as convenient as a coal stove for heating, we naturally have to dedicate it to the Great Khan."
Jamuka smiled with satisfaction.
He was satisfied that the people of the Tiger-Character Banner could respect their Khan. Although the Great Khan wanted to take back the Tiger-Character Banner's shop on the grassland not long ago, that was because he was forced by Su Nang and many Taijis. He was not allowed to have talents. Do this.
Now the Great Khan has promised that he will not interfere in the struggle between the Tiger-Character Banner and the Fanji Chamber of Commerce, nor will he take back the Tiger-Character Banner's shops on the grassland.
"The general usually stays with the Great Khan. Is there something important when he comes to the tribe this time?" Li Shuheng looked at Jamuhe and asked.
"There is something." Jamukha said hesitantly, "This matter has something to do with your Tiger Flag."
Li Shuheng said curiously, "General, please tell me."
"This" Jamukha hesitated for a moment and said, "The Great Khan heard that your Tiger Banner bought a lot of things from the Fanji Chamber of Commerce, and your Tiger Banner also saved a lot of goods yourself. Now the herdsmen can no longer buy them. I have received too many goods from the Fanji Chamber of Commerce, and the Great Khan hopes that you can sell some things to the herdsmen."
"We can't sell it now." Li Shuheng shook his head slightly.
He naturally knew that the herdsmen could no longer buy anything from the Fanji Chamber of Commerce. Now that Fanji Chamber of Commerce had four convoys transporting to the grasslands robbed by their tiger-character flags, the few goods that the Fanji Chamber of Commerce stored in Banshengdi had long been The sales were about the same, and most of them were collected by their tiger-character flags.
Unlike those herdsmen who bought them piecemeal, Huziqi always bought them in large quantities. In addition to ironware, they would buy whatever was brought to the grassland by the Fanji Chamber of Commerce.
Because they bought a lot of goods, Han merchants in Bansheng City were also willing to sell things to them. Unlike selling to herdsmen, it would take a while to sell out all the goods. After all, herdsmen only bought what they needed at a time.
When selling goods to Huziqi, the Han merchants in Banshengcheng can completely get the goods from Fanji Chamber of Commerce and sell to Huziqi. They can earn money by switching hands in the middle without having to wait for too long.
"Now the herdsmen can no longer buy things from the Fan Family Chamber of Commerce, so the Great Khan hopes that your Tiger Banner will stop hoarding goods and sell your inventory to the herdsmen as soon as possible." Jamukha said seriously.
"What about the price?" Li Shuheng asked.
Jamukha hesitated for a moment and said, "What the Khan means is that the prices for your goods collected from the Fanji Chamber of Commerce are not high. I hope you can sell them to the herdsmen at the same price as the Fanji Chamber of Commerce."
He felt a little embarrassed when he said this, but there was nothing he could do if the Khan asked him to say this.
