The old shopkeeper said quickly.

"Very good!"

Cheng Chusi nodded in satisfaction, and walked up with Li Chengqian and others.

"Wait for me with a pot of good Longjing, and then a plate of dim sum and a plate of dried fruit!"

"Yes!"

The old shopkeeper quickly responded.

The waiter behind him hurried to the back kitchen.

The teahouses in West Market are even more luxuriously decorated, and green plants can be seen everywhere, but the consumption is also higher.

The fourth floor is the highest floor of the teahouse, and it is also the floor with the highest consumption of the teahouse. It is only the cost of a private room, which is consistent money.In addition, drinking tea and eating snacks are another matter.

However, after listening to Li Xuan's teachings, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others have long since lost their distress for the price of the teahouse.

Anyway, the teahouse also has members of their family.

No matter how much it is spent, it will be returned to them in the end.

Moreover, the money in their family has long been too much to spend, and it is enjoyment to eat it in their stomachs.

Therefore, this time, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others were very peaceful, which surprised the old shopkeeper.

When the fragrant tea came up, the old shopkeeper hurriedly cupped his hands and asked: "Dare to ask a few young men, come to West Market today, but what can I do for you?"

"In your building, are there Hu merchants coming to drink tea at this time?"

Cheng Chusi asked.

"Hushang?"

Hearing this, the old shopkeeper was a little suspicious. If he hadn't seen the peaceful faces of Cheng Chusi and the others, he would have thought that it was that unscrupulous Hu businessman who offended these young men.

"A few young men, there are some Hu merchants, but those Hu merchants are full of coquettish smell, and they are a bit vulgar. I don't know what is the use of looking for those Hu merchants?"

"how many?"

Cheng Chusi ignored it and asked directly.

Hearing this, the old shopkeeper smiled sarcastically, and hurriedly said: "A few young men, there are more than ten on the first floor, four or five on the second floor, three on the third floor, and only one on the fourth floor!"

"Is there anything else on the fourth floor?"

Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and the others were all taken aback.

You must know that the top floors of all the teahouses in Chang'an City are not accessible to ordinary people, even if they have money.

The average Hu businessman, who can go up to the third floor, is already considered extremely rich.

"Back to Xiaolang, I heard that the Hu merchants on the fourth floor came from a land of barbarians thousands of miles away, and they are inviting Steward Wei of the Wei family to drink tea and talk about things!"

The old shopkeeper quickly replied.

"Big food?"

Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and the others were all taken aback for a moment, and then said hastily.

"It's him, call him to me!"

"But the young men, the guest invited by the merchant Hu is a direct descendant of Jing Zhaowei's family!"

The old shopkeeper said cautiously again.

Although Jingzhaowei's family is not as powerful as the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, it is still a powerful family, and there are countless disciples in the family who are officials in the court.Moreover, there is now a daughter of the Wei family, who is Concubine Wei in Tai Chi Palace, who is deeply loved by saints.

"It's okay, I'm not going to trouble those Hu merchants, but there are some things that I need to ask these Hu merchants for advice!"

Cheng Chusi said indifferently.

Afterwards, seeing that the old shopkeeper still looked embarrassed, he couldn't help but said directly: "Treasurer Cui, can you do it? If it's difficult, I'll go and call that Hu merchant here!"

"Xiao Lang, don't worry, the villain will go and invite that Hu merchant over!"

Hearing that Cheng Chusi wanted to go there in person, the old shopkeeper's face changed slightly, and he quickly said with an apologetic smile.

If this person were to go there in person, there would be no big deal at all, but something big would happen!

"Don't go soon!"

Seeing this, Cheng Chusi snorted directly.

It's really a mess who can't be dragged away, but who wants to go away.

On the side, Li Chengqian, Li Chongyi and others watched all this with smiles on their faces.To deal with these servants who always like to have other ideas, it takes an unreasonable and muddled person like Cheng Chusi.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Lang, please wait a moment!"

The old shopkeeper hurriedly saluted, and then walked out quickly.

After a while, there was a commotion outside.

Afterwards, the old shopkeeper knocked on the door again and entered, followed by a Hu merchant with an eagle nose and blue eyes and a circle of white linen wrapped around his head.Behind him was a middle-aged man with a square face.

However, when he came in, seeing Cheng Chusi and others, the Hu businessman panicked subconsciously.

"Several young men, this is a Hu businessman from Dashi Kingdom, Ariani Walter!"

"Little man Ariani Waters has seen some noble boys!"

Food businessman Ariani Walter hurriedly saluted Cheng Chusi and the others in skilled Tang language.

Immediately afterwards, the old shopkeeper introduced the steward of the Wei family who followed behind him, "You guys, this is the steward of Jing Zhaowei's family in the West City, Wei Sen!"

"Ok!"

In this regard, without waiting for Wesson to come forward to salute, Cheng Chusi and the others nodded directly, and then looked directly at Ariani Walter, a big food and barbarian merchant.

"Water, you really came from Dashi?"

Hearing this, Ariani Walter was taken aback. Although his name was called wrong, he quickly replied respectfully: "Return to the nobles, the villain really came from the Great Food Kingdom thousands of miles away."

He often travels between the Great Food Kingdom and the Great Tang, and he also knows Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others.

These little nobles are all the sons of the nobles at the top of the Tang Dynasty, and they will also be the top nobles of the Tang Dynasty in the future. Foreign merchants like him can only be seen on weekdays, and they can only take a detour. Not qualified to come forward to chat.

Moreover, even if he offends these people and kills him, no one will help such a Hu businessman to complain for his injustice.

And Wesson on the side also looked cautious.

He can't afford to offend these dandies in Chang'an City.

As for Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the East Palace, Cheng Chusi and others did not show any respect and courtesy to him from the beginning to the end, and it was Cheng Chusi who spoke all the time, so Wei Sen and Ariani didn't recognize him. The Crown Prince stood before them.

"Is there really a big food country?"

Hear from Ariani Voight.Cheng Chusi, Li Chengqian and others were all overjoyed.

"Exactly!"

Speaking of the Great Food Kingdom, Ariani Walter couldn't help showing a trace of pride on his face.

"How big is the territory of the Great Food Kingdom?"

Cheng Chusi asked again,

"Back to my little nobleman, the territory of the Great Food Kingdom is thousands of miles away, almost as big as the Tang Dynasty!" Ariani Walter quickly replied.

"It's so big?"

Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others looked at each other, then quickly looked at Ariani Walter, and once again believed in the map drawn by Li Xuan.

"Do you have a map of the Great Food Country?"

Cheng Chusi stared at Ariani Walter closely and asked.

……

Chapter 396 Comparing Maps

"Returning to the nobleman, the villain came to the Tang Dynasty to do business, and he did not bring the map of the Great Food Kingdom!" Ariani Walter replied quickly.

In fact, according to Ariani Walter's status in the Great Food Kingdom, he couldn't get a map of the Great Food Kingdom at all.

"You came all the way to Datang to trade, how long does it take you to travel from Dashi to Datang?"

Li Chongyi asked again.

"Returning to the nobleman, the villain set off from the Dashi Kingdom with a lot of goods, and came to the Datang, at least two months!"

Ariani Voight replied.

"Two months? Even if you walk eighty miles a day, that's five thousand miles? How far is the Great Food Kingdom from the Great Tang?"

Now, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and the others could not help but subconsciously opened the map in their hands and began to study it carefully.

On the side, Ariani Walter, Wesson and the others were stunned, looking curiously at the map in the hands of Cheng Chusi and the others.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Cheng Chusi, who was looking at the map for a while, quickly raised his head and stared closely at Ariani Walter.

"You bird man, from Dashi to my Tang Dynasty, such a long distance, you have to go through Tuyuhun, Tubo Kingdom, and so many countries in the Western Regions on the way, if you don't have a map in your hand, how can you walk over? "

"Forgive me, my lord. The villain really doesn't have a map of the Great Food Kingdom. When I come to Datang from the Great Food Kingdom, I will trade with the kingdoms I pass by, and then draw maps along the way!"

Ariani Walter's complexion changed drastically, and he said in a panic.

At the same time, subconsciously looked to the side of Wesson.After these Hu merchants came to Datang, they would find a big force as their backer, otherwise they would not be able to leave Datang, and all the money and goods they brought would be robbed.

The Wei family, which is related to the royal family, is Ariani Walter's backstage in Chang'an City.

"Hmph, don't look at him, Yeye and the others want to kill you, even if the head of the Wei family comes, they can't stop them!"

Cheng Chusi snorted coldly, "Hurry up and give Jeyna all the maps of your Dashi Kingdom!"

Hearing this, Wei Sen's expression froze and his face was full of anger, but remembering what the Patriarch told him, these dudes are all idiots, even if they win the quarrel, they will lose, and maybe they will be beaten in vain.

"Return to your lord, the map we are waiting for is on the inn attendant."

Ariani Walter trembled and hurriedly replied.

"Hurry up and get it, I want to borrow it!" Cheng Chusi said.

"If you have any other maps, bring them together, yeah, there will be a lot of rewards!"

"Yes!"

Ariani Walter responded quickly, and walked out quickly.

"Li Si, take someone to escort this Hu merchant, go back quickly!"

On the side, Li Chongyi suddenly shouted.

Hearing this, Ariani Walter paused, and quickly turned around to salute Li Chongyi.

Li Si in the room hurriedly cupped his hands to Li Chongyi, and followed.

"Treasurer Cui, go and call those Hu merchants on the third floor!"

Afterwards, Cheng Chusi said to the old shopkeeper again.

This time, the old shopkeeper didn't dare to delay, he quickly responded and walked out quickly.

Soon, the three merchants on the third floor were called up.

As soon as they entered the door, the three Hu merchants also looked bitter, and hurriedly bowed their hands to Cheng Chusi and others.

"The villain Aragorn, Marcie, Bohr and others have met some nobles!"

"Where did you all come from? Do you have a map on your body?"

This time, Cheng Chusi didn't delay and asked directly.

"Return to the nobleman, the villain is from Persia."

"The villain is from Sogdia."

"The villain is from Linyi."

Regarding Cheng Chusi's words, these three Hu merchants dare not hide anything.

"Stop talking nonsense, do you have a map in your hand?"
