Chapter 202 Holding a golden rice bowl to beg
When they heard someone knocking on the door, the two Tuluhun people in the room were so scared that they stood up together. They were all very scared. This place was in the territory of the Dafang Kingdom, and they were Tuluhun people. They did not pass the pass, did not pass the pass, and they directly crossed the border. However, they had to be treated as a meticulous disposal. The result of the meticulous disposal was to be cut off. This was not a joke.
Wang Duoniu stood up and said, "Two, don't panic. The person who came is my acquaintance. He came to discuss business with me. He did the same thing like you... he did the same thing!" He did not say what the other party was, but said that he was doing the same thing, vaguely speaking.
The two bald people were still scared, and they strongly asked to hide first. Wang Duoniu had to let them go to the woodshed in the backyard. After they hid, Wang Duoniu then went to open the yard gate.
Yang Ze entered the yard and said, "Why did you open the door so long?"
Wang Duoniu quickly whispered: "Two bald people came. They were very brave and insisted on hiding first. In order to stabilize them, the villain had to let them hide in the woodshed." He pointed to the backyard.
Yang Ze nodded and laughed, "Just keep it steady. If they try their best to escape, to be honest, I am really in a dilemma. Even if I catch it, they will not cooperate. Let's go and see them."
Wang Duoniu took Yang Ze into the woodshed in the backyard, and then pushed the door open.
In the woodshed, two bald people were waiting trembling. They have been in Zhenxi County for more than once or twice, and they have been secretly entering Zhenxi County for countless times, but this is the first time they are afraid of being discovered. How can they not be afraid?
As soon as the door of the woodshed opened, the two bald men pulled out the scimitar and blocked the knife in front of their chests. One of them said, "You go first!"
The other one was not polite, and said no, and was ready to rush out at any time.
Yang Ze was exposed outside the door. When the Tuluhun saw Yang Ze's official uniform, they immediately shouted, and one of them shouted, "Master Wang... Wang Duoniu, you bastard, actually betrayed us!" He rushed forward and chopped Wang Duoniu.
Another Tuluhun man rushed out the door and wanted to escape, but neither of them dared to attack Yang Ze. They were not stupid either. He knew that if he injured an official, he would not be able to escape even if he wanted to!
Although Wang Duoniu looked like a little mouse in front of Yang Ze, it was because the people were afraid of officials. But if he was in front of Tu Luhun, he would have no fear expression!
Wang Duoniu picked up a stick from the ground, blocked the scimitar with a silence, and shouted loudly: "Stop it, kneel down for the master, otherwise the master will destroy your tribe!"
Yang Ze took a step back and thought to himself: "What's wrong? These two bald people didn't say anything when they saw me, and they just started to do it!"
When the yard started, soldiers who had already prepared outside immediately climbed over the wall. Not only were there many soldiers, but the level of fighting was significantly higher than that of the Tuluhun people who did not ride horses. After a few hits, two Tuluhun people pressed the ground and punched and kicked them. The two Tuluhun people rolled their eyes, let alone escape, and they couldn't even breathe!
Yang Ze waved his hand and asked the soldiers to let go of them, and said strangely: "Why did you take action as soon as you see me? I have no enemies with you and have never robbed you? Why are you like enemies?"
Tuluhun was lying on the ground, in pain, and could not answer, Wang Duoniu had to whisper: "Master, you have never snatched them, but the ex-masters have all snatched them!"
Yang Ze couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When he was in Ningbei Province, he always heard that people suddenly came to grab Dafang, but now when he arrived in the west of Zhen, he actually went to grab Tuluhun. The Tuluhun people were too weak. They were all nomadic tribes on the grassland, so why are they so much different?
The two Tuluhun who were pressed to the ground were frightened and shouted together: "Master, please spare your life. The villain is a good person who is a polite person. Please give us your kindness!" Their Central Plains words were spoken in a straight voice, and they were a bit Chang'an, even more authentic than Hao Weifeng's words. If you listen with your eyes closed, you will think that they are really people of the generous empire.
Yang Ze coughed and said, "You are the kind-hearted people who are obedient? Well, it really looks quite good. You are all Tuluhun people, why did you come to our Zhenxi County?"
His tone was very kind, without any rebuke. Just from the sound, he could not tell what he wanted to kill, but it was like a neighbor talking about home.
A man from Tuluhun hurriedly said, "When you say that to the master, we are indeed Tuluhun. We usually do small businesses. If the master wants to charge taxes, we will pay immediately, pay more, pay more immediately!"
Yang Ze said, "It's good if you are willing to pay taxes, so I won't be able to collect them from you on the grassland. Okay, let them go and take them to the house... and talk to the county government!" He originally wanted to discuss business at Wang Duoniu's house, but looking at the Tuluhun person now, it would be more appropriate to go to the county government government to say.
The soldiers followed Yang Ze to the county government. After entering the main hall, Yang Ze personally stepped forward, loosened the two of them, asked them to sit down, and brought them a bowl of tea to each of them, which was steaming and some goat milk was placed inside.
The two Tuluhun were a little shocked and felt that Yang Ze was different from the former Zhenxi County Magistrate. They drank hot tea soup while thinking about how to beg so that Yang Ze could let them go. As for resistance and escape, they did not dare to think about it. After entering Zhenxi County, they wanted to escape after being caught. Both of them knew that it was impossible.
Yang Ze also drank a sip of hot tea and looked at the two turtle people while drinking. He found that there was still a difference between turtle people and sudden people, and the difference was quite large.
When he was in Ningbei Province, Yang Ze had seen people who were dressed in Chinese. The rich people liked to wear silk and satin, and the utensils used were similar to those of the Han people. This was mainly because people had a generous and business relationship. But the Tuluhun people here in Zhenxi were different. The two Tuluhun people in front of him were wearing shoddy black sheepskin robes, which were very worn and had no ornaments on them. It can be seen that they were very poor, but the scimitars used by the two were extremely sharp and shining. Even those who did not know weapons could see that these two scimitars were first-class weapons.
Now these two knives are in the hands of the soldiers. Yang Ze waved to the soldiers to send one. When he took it, he felt a sank in his hand. The weight of the scimitar was really unclear.
Yang Ze did not talk about the wine for now, but said, "You two have good knives. Where did you buy them? But I bought them with a generous price, so it should cost a lot of money! What are your names? Which tribe are you from?" He really hoped that Tuluhun people would be rich, so that business would be easier to do.
These two Tuluhun people are brothers. The older brother is called Shuluochai and the younger brother is called Shuluozao. They are both herders of Tuluhun Shuluo tribe. They are just because they are smart and often bring cattle and sheep to the west to sell, and they can buy a lot of things from the west. Therefore, they can be considered clever figures in Shuluo tribe. In the words of Yang Zelai's era, the two can be regarded as big names or bigwigs among herders, and are very important roles.
After answering their surnames and tribes, Shuluo Chai said: "The scimitars of the villain are made by themselves in the tribe. They don't cost much, they are just a few sheep. The territory of the villain tribe produces iron and copper, even gold. If the adults can let the villain go back and the villain is willing to send the ransom, the bigger our heads are, the bigger the gold nuggets they send!"
Shu Luochai was afraid that Yang Ze would kill them, so he immediately told the price of the ransom. Anyway, there was gold in their tribe, and because of inconvenience in circulation, it could be considered begging for food with a gold rice bowl.
Yang Ze was shocked. Isn’t this Tu Luhun very poor? Judging from their appearance, they can’t even get along with the rich. Why are they gold, iron and copper? If there are these minerals, how can they be poor?
Yang Ze pretended to be your situation, and I knew it, and said, "Do you think you can live a good life by having gold and building weapons? I tell you that as long as we are generous and don't do business with you, no matter how much gold you have, it will be useless!"
Shu Luochai and Shu Luozao immediately became dejected, and Yang Ze was right. Because the Dafang Empire prohibited business with the Tuluhun people, no matter how much gold they had, they could not exchange for commodities. If gold and copper could not become currency, what was the difference between stone? They could not eat or drink, and they were really no different from stone.
Seeing their appearance, Yang Ze thought to himself: "I guessed right, I will cheat them again." He said: "Do you know why I am generous and don't trade with you? If you want to drink some wine, you have to buy it so secretly. You won't know the reason!" As he said that, he darkened his face.
Shu Luochai showed a hatred expression on his face and said, "It's not because of the Chuju people. In order to occupy our Tuluhun's territory and annex our tribes, they used tricks to provoke our relationship with Dafang, and did not allow us to trade with Dafang, and wanted to force us to surrender. But we Tuluhun people have backbone and would rather die than surrender to their Chuju people. We are swearing to be incompatible with the Chuju people!"
Yang Ze raised his eyebrows and immediately understood that he must have suddenly realized that he wanted to swallow Tuluhun, but Tuluhun's bone was smelly and hard, and it was too difficult to chew. So he took advantage of the time when he was repairing with Dafang, and then added an additional condition to prevent the Dafang Empire from communicating with Tuluhun. In order to deal with Tuluhun, the biggest enemy, Dafang had to sacrifice Tuluhun. Besides, it was just not communicating with Tuluhun. For the Dafang Empire, which was based on agriculture and despising merchants, it didn't matter to do less business. Not to mention the ministers, even the Queen Dugu herself did not think that she had lost anything, as long as she didn't fight.
Yang Ze put down his scimitar, called the servant, and said, "Take out a jar of fine wine I brought from the Central Plains, and I want to invite these two good friends from the grassland to drink!"
