Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 414 Departure
"I promise you, but I don't dare to guarantee whether the matter will be successful or not. I just do my best!"

Hearing what Li Yan said, Zhang Yi and Xu Jingzong looked at each other and smiled.

What they wanted was Li Yan's words!
In fact, they don't need Li Yan to do anything else now, or in other words, besides the channels and contacts they need, they don't look down on other places in Li Yan.

"Let's make some arrangements at home. We'll bring the goods over tomorrow morning, and then we'll head straight to Qingtang."

As soon as Zhang Yi said that, he cupped his hands and wanted to leave. Li Yan also knew that Zhang Yi and others behaved like this, so he didn't try to persuade him to stay.

Walking out of Li Yan's mansion, Zhang Yi made a show, Wang Wu understood, and immediately arranged several people to watch around Li Yan's mansion.

Now they have arduous tasks, and nothing can go wrong. Although they have investigated Li Yan's background, there is nothing wrong with it, but they have been sailing carefully for thousands of years. Who knows if Li Yan, who has lost so much property now, will have any bad thoughts? .

After everything was arranged properly, Zhang Yi and other talents returned the same way.

When they go back today, they have to transfer the goods.

This time they went to Qingtang, they needed to bring a batch of salt to test it first, not only salt, but also other things, such as food, spirits and Tibetan mastiff.

However, when I went to Qingtang for the first time, considering that the risk was too high, Zhang Yi and Xu Jingzong discussed it. They took some of them in for a test first, and if they could stabilize, they would start to supply a large amount.

After going back, Zhang Yi and Xu Jingzong checked it one last time to make sure that everything was correct, and they had brought all their personal and personal affairs, so they were relieved.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Zhang Yi and Xu Jingzong took all their troops to Li Yan's residence.

Dozens of coachmen drove the carriage, and hundreds of guards escorted them back and forth. When they arrived at Li Yan's mansion, Li Yan was already waiting at the door with several servants.

Seeing this battle, Li Yan felt relieved. There are so many people, and these young and strong people are all Lianjiazi at first glance, and their combat effectiveness is no worse than that of ordinary soldiers. If they don't meet the Tubo army, they should not There's going to be big trouble.

And dozens of carts of goods look pretty good. What the Tubo people lack most is salt and grain. Of course, if calculated by volume, salt must be the most expensive. If there are dozens of carts, half of them are Salt, no, even if only one-third of it is salt, then this wealth is unimaginable.

You must know that three catties of salt can be exchanged for a good horse now, such a cart would cost hundreds of catties, and if there were ten carts of salt, they would have been able to exchange for thousands of good horses.

If thousands of good horses can be returned to Datang, what price would that be? Li Yan couldn't imagine. What he knew was that if thousands of good horses could be sold to the imperial court at a price lower than the market price, then a title would be worth a lot. I can't run away.

The knight title is not something that can be bought casually with money, it is also a status symbol.

Those with titles are the highest nobles in this society, and these businessmen, no matter how rich they are, their status is still not as noble as those nobles with titles, even the lowest county male is more noble than them. noble!
After reuniting with Zhang Yi and the others, Li Yan followed Zhang Yiyue and the others very consciously to the front of the team to lead the way, while Xu Jingzong supervised from behind.

The people brought by Zhang Yi and Xu Jingzong are basically veterans of the army, each of whom is a smart and capable person. Now they are transporting these things, and they are also transporting military rations.

Since it is the rule in the army, they will naturally send out scouts, so that they can respond to emergencies in advance.

Seeing Zhang Yi and others performing these operations so skillfully, Li Yan's heart slowly let go, but judging from the meticulousness of Zhang Yi and others' work, I'm afraid they are not good at it!
"Brother Li, just tell us something about Qingtang, so that we don't understand anything when our eyes are smeared in the past."

As the team moved forward, Zhang Yi chatted with Li Yan.

Li Yan knew that his greatest use was his contacts and knowledge, and his face was still useful in Qingtang.

So he didn't intend to hide anything, he almost knew everything. After all, in his eyes, Zhang Yi and his group were really ruthless characters, much more powerful than those bandits, or ordinary merchants. The real soldiers may not be as powerful as them.

Along the way, it was Li Yan who said that Zhang Yi was listening, and if there was something he didn’t understand, Zhang Yi would immediately ask Li Yan for advice until he understood, and there were some very important things that Zhang Yi would also understand. Write it down with special emphasis, he even had plans to ask Yue Eleven to make a record for him, but was rejected by Yue Eleven with a look.

At noon, the group found a place to camp and light a fire to cook. Since they set off early in the morning, they had already traveled fifty or sixty miles by this time and began to enter the area where Tibetan soldiers were more active.

"Brother Li, if we encounter a small army of Tibetans and we fight with them, will there be a large army of Tibetans chasing us?"

Zhang Yi asked Li Yan while eating barbecue jerky. The next conflict with the Tubo people was almost inevitable, but Zhang Yi and the others had to think of a strategy first.

Li Yan thought for a while and said: "It depends on the situation. Under normal circumstances, these small groups of troops are the private soldiers of the Tubo nobles. If we have conflicts with them, it is only a conflict with that nobleman. We will have conflicts with the entire Tubo, of course, if other nobles or lords are willing to help that noble, then we will be considered unlucky."

Li Yan's words made Zhang Yi a little bit pained. It felt like luck anyway. If you were lucky, nothing would happen. If you were not lucky, you would become the enemy of the entire Tubo.

But at this time, I can't say anything, I can only play by ear, watching while walking.

A lunch time passed quickly. After taking a break after lunch, Xu Jingzong stood up and signaled that everyone could continue on their way. Otherwise, they would not be able to walk halfway before dark, and they would not be able to reach Qingtang when it was dark the next day. .

In the current turbulent situation, everyone wants to reach their destination as soon as possible, because if they stay outside for a moment, they will be more dangerous!
