From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 2592 Caravan Departure

"You have to come back quickly."

Zhang Qian and others stood nearby, feeling very happy.

"What's the rush? Why don't you have a few children? Are you coming together tonight?"

Long Chen said with a smile.

Bai Tingting immediately said: "I don't want it. The matchmaker is getting married. Forget about messing around with you before. The marriage must be hosted by the Ministry of Etiquette."

Bai Tingting also participated in the suppression of bandits in Qianjiang County, and she also participated in this operation.

"Okay, the matchmaker is getting married."

Long Chen smiled and helped pack things.

After Gongsun Linglong changed her clothes, Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi asked Dugu Jiali to take the military talisman to the camp to order troops and leave the next day.

Everything is ready and the palace has made arrangements.

The next day, Gongsun Linglong pretended to be Long Chen, and Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi led the generals out of the east gate and headed for Qianjiang County with five thousand elite troops.

Outside the east gate.

An ordinary-looking man looked at the leaving team, putting his hands in his sleeves and watching silently.

"I heard that the pirates in Qianjiang County have become rampant again."

"Hmph, the regent once pacified him many years ago, and he will definitely be able to capture him this time."

"Not necessarily. I heard it was even more violent this time."

"Hey, the last time we suppressed the bandits, the regent was just a eunuch in charge. What is he now?"

"It makes sense. We were able to eliminate them easily last time, let alone this time."

Watching the team go away, everyone slowly dispersed.

Qi Wenhai led a group of people, including those from the Ministry of Justice, Jingzhao Mansion, and the Ministry of Works, out of the east gate and headed south into the chaotic town.

The empress ordered him to plan the construction of houses outside the capital, and Qi Wenhai started to work on it.

The man next to Shou Shou slowly walked back into the city and entered a shop, which was filled with all kinds of goods from the Western Regions.

"The shopkeeper's..."

"The treasurer."

This ordinary-looking man is the shopkeeper of this shop. He usually sells goods from the Western Regions and has his own caravan.

"Is the caravan ready for departure?"

The shopkeeper asked expressionlessly.

"Shopkeeper, it's ready. Brother Hu said we'll leave in three days."

The shopkeeper nodded: "Okay."

West Factory.

Long Chen was sitting in the secret room, and Feng He came in from the outside.

"Sir, please inquire, that store will set off in three days, and the team leader will be a man named Brother Hu."

"Brother Hu has some martial arts skills, but not much. He has traveled four times on the trade routes in the Western Regions, and this is his fifth time delivering goods for Sitong Store."

Feng He informed the inquirer.

Feng He has already investigated Shen Wanjin's several strongholds in the capital.

The shopkeeper of Sitong Store was Shen Wanjin's subordinate and the assassin of Wanjin Tower back then.

"Shen Wanjin should pass the news through these people. After we set off, you can eradicate all the strongholds left by Shen Wanjin in the capital. There is no need to send any more news."

Feng He was a little worried: "Sir, after eradicating them, no caravan has ever passed by Shen Wanjin. Will he be suspicious?"

Long Chen said: "The desert is so dangerous. It's normal for the caravan to die on the way. Besides, it only takes a few months for me to handle it."

"Get rid of them all. There is no need to keep any tails. It is absolutely impossible for Shen Wanjin to come back."

"There are still some rogue bandits in the rivers and lakes, those half-ghosts who have not been eradicated completely. Xichang will continue to search. If you find them, tell Zhuang Ling'er and kill them all!"

Feng He nodded and asked with some regret: "Sir, are you really not going to take me with you?"

Long Chen said: "If I don't take you, you can just stay in the capital."

Feng He chuckled and said, "That's right. With two beautiful women, I feel uncomfortable around them."

Long Chen rolled his eyes at Feng He.

"Get ready, let's set off together that day."

Long Chen stayed in the secret room and never returned to the palace.

three days later.

The backyard of Jujintang.

A hunchbacked groom drove the carriage in, and Qian Cheng cursed loudly: "Old Bird Head, what time is it, and you just came."

This hunchbacked groom has a sharp mouth, a bit like a bird's beak, and is nicknamed "Old Bird Head".

Old Niaotou liked to drink and was always drunk, but he was familiar with the trade routes in the Western Regions, so Qian Cheng hired him.

"Don't be surprised, Hall Master Qian, he drank two more drinks last night."

The old man smiled and didn't care that Qian Cheng scolded him.

No matter what the criticism, I have good skills, and Jujintang is waiting for him to lead the way.

The business routes in the Western Regions are highly profitable, and larger shops want to visit them, and Jujintang is no exception.

"They say that if you drink, you will get into trouble. You are not allowed to drink on the road."

Qian Cheng threw a box angrily and said, "Your son has been born. Congratulations on having a son at an old age."

The old bird head smiled and picked up the box and said with a smile: "Thank you, Hall Master Qian."

Jujintang was not a good person before, but after the collapse of Wanjinlou, Jujintang was still very fair in doing business and never defaulted on its debts or cheated customers.

With Long Chen standing behind as a credit guarantee, everyone trusts him.

Qian Cheng's temperament gradually changed, and he still had to curse others, and he still gave a lot of benefits to others.

Lao Niaotou had just given birth to a son, and finally had incense. Qian Cheng was busy and did not go to drink, so he gave him many gifts.

"Hurry up, we must leave today."

Qian Cheng waved his hand, and Lao Niao Tou drove the carriage into the backyard.

The goods have been loaded, and a burly man is the leader of this trip. He is also from Jujintang. His name is Li Dajiao, because his feet are particularly big.

"Old Bird Head, congratulations."

Li Dajiao smiled heartily.

The old bird head smiled and said: "You already have five sons. Oh, I only gave birth to one, which is enough. I have to keep my mouth shut and make more money."

Li Dajiao smiled and said, "How much money is it worth if you drink a few glasses of wine?"

"Everything is ready, it's time for us to set off."

Li Dajiao went to Qian Cheng's room to get the list and said some more words. The caravan slowly left the Jujin Hall and walked towards the west gate.

Sitong Shop.

Brother Hu directed his men to pack up the carriage and shouted loudly: "On a good day and auspicious days, all directions will make you rich!"

With a crack of the whip and a snap, the caravan slowly walked towards the west gate.

A boy followed the convoy to the west, and the shopkeeper shouted at the door: "Go out to make a fortune, and come back safely."

There were also onlookers from the surrounding shops, and they all came forward to congratulate him.

"Shopkeeper Liu will definitely make a fortune this time."

"Good luck and good fortune, loads of gold and silver on the truck."

"Thank you all, thank you."

Shopkeeper Liu walked in with a smile. The others looked at it for a while and then dispersed.

They say good luck, but in their hearts they hope that something will happen and no one will come back.

Watching your peers and neighbors make money is more uncomfortable than dying yourself.

This is human nature!

The carriage slowly arrived at the west gate. The guard saw the goods and immediately let them go.

Brother Hu walked in front, with a scimitar in his hand, a bow and a barrel of arrows on his horse.

We set out in the morning and by the time we reached the evening, it was already getting dark.

There was no inn nearby, so Brother Hu ordered the carriages to be surrounded. People lit bonfires outside and slept in the wild.

"Brother Hu, there is also a caravan over there."

Not far away, there was also a bonfire lit. Brother Hu got up and forgot to take a look when he saw the flag of the caravan saying: Jujintang.

"Jujintang's caravan."

Brother Hu said this and felt much more at ease.

Jujintang has a royal background, and there are many good people in the caravan. It is safer to be close to the people in Jujintang.

"Oh, you guys from Jujintang, just follow them."

The boy stretched his neck and looked.

"Let's set out together tomorrow."

Brother Hu agreed with the young man's idea.

When running a business trip outside, safety comes first. Any method will do, so don’t be embarrassed.
