"Why should I leave early?" His wife Zhang said with a worry in her eyes, "Didn't she say she will leave next month?"

"I'm afraid of heavy wind and snow on the road. The wind and snow on the grassland will be a life-threatening person." Zhang Ziming answered, and then said, "The Master Zhang from Yusheng is here, and I've said a few words to me. Judging from his meaning, I'm afraid that the business road will be established on the grassland. He is the Master. Once the business starts, we have nothing to do. Let's go ahead and open up the joints in advance. The tribes along the way are familiar with each other first. Even if they can't reach Baicheng, they have to try to go east. The tribes and Jizhen there are not very peaceful these years, and there are many shortages of stocks. We can at least make some money."

If you are on the road in such a hurry and are not well prepared, you may encounter danger. Zhang Ziming's eldest son showed dissatisfaction in his eyes and said, "It's the one and Yusheng again. Our family told them to squeeze in so much. The owner wants to steal our jobs. Dad, why don't you find a few Tartars to kill him!"

"Bastard!" Zhang Ziming changed his color and cursed: "You know what's the point. He has dozens of guards. Who are you looking for to assassinate?"

Zhang said: "Don't scold him, he is also worried that you are in danger."

Zhang Ziming said angrily: "If I die, others will take out the goods for me, and you will definitely eat them."

Zhang said sadly: "Husband thinks we are just thinking about it for ourselves?"

Zhang Ziming knew that he had made up his words. Seeing that the three children's eyes were bright and each of them showed a look of worry. He sighed heavily and turned his face away, feeling a burst of sadness in his heart.

...

"Young Master, Young Master?"

When the update came, there were gusts of north wind blowing from the grassland. The low hills could not stop the polar cold coming from Siberia. The temperature on the grassland dropped very quickly. Not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the grassland in the middle of the night was as cold as the early winter in the mainland. Fortunately, Yinding's residence was like the wealthy Han family, and they were all brick-shaped houses. There were pits in the houses that could burn coal to keep warm. It was not cold to sleep on the pits.

Zhang Han had not taken off his clothes yet, so he soaked his feet in hot water before going to the pit. He was leaning on the quilt and reading a book under the candlelight, but outside the window, the sound of Li knocking on the window came.

He was shocked and thought to himself, was this woman really not obeying her wife's words, and she didn't get the wrong name.

Clear your throat and said, "Mr. Li, it's midnight..."

"It's easier to speak in the middle of the night!"

Li's voice was loud and he was shouting with a loudspeaker. Only then did Zhang Han realize that he was thinking about it. He immediately went down to the pit and opened the door and sat opposite Li on the outer chair.

"I know everything about the daytime." Li looked at Zhang Han and said with disdain: "Yinding is stupid, young master, although you are smart, you still can't understand the matter of the Tartars."

Zhang Han didn't show any expression, just said "Oh".

"I often joke with the people in Taiji's mansion. I have a lot of goods on hand, and most of them are good things like gold beads and jewelry. So after walking a lot, they don't avoid me. This time, it seems that the Su Nan pulls the cloth beads and sweats hard, but in fact the most important thing is still the Muer."

"Why?"

Zhang Han knew that Na Muer was in charge of the five routes of Taiji and directly managed many tribes. When Bu Shitu Khan and Su Nang competed for the Khan throne many years ago, Mrs. Jin Zhong, the third lady, supported Su Nang. At that time, Na Muer cooperated with many Taiji and gathered more than 100,000 people to demonstrate outside Bansheng City. The situation was about to break out. If the talk was inappropriate, of course, it was only possible to fight. Later, the third lady gave in and married Bu Shitu. Bu Shitu Shunyi King got the Khan throne and the Khan throne was stable, and the situation was settled.

It can be seen that Na Muer and Bu Shitu are very close ally relationships. At this meeting, Na Muer also supported Bu Shitu Khan.

Zhang Han told what he saw, but Li sneered, "These Tartars always say that we Han people are treacherous, but how good are they? Young Master, the tribe in Muer's hands is not under the sweat of the Great Sweat. The two of them joined forces to suppress the simplican and the cloth sack. Why did the meeting disperse? It was because Muer's attitude of support was limited, so the Taiji people who were attached to him did not speak out. He was not tough, and the Great Sweat could not be tough, so the things that were decided were disturbed so that they could not be decided on the spot... Think about it yourself, is it very obvious?"

"You're talking very well!"

Zhang Han thought about the situation during the meal, and it turned out to be just as Li said.

He couldn't help but say, "This guy Yinding is such a fool."

Zhang Han didn't know much about the specific situation in Mongolia, and now he started to make up for his homework. Yinding is a native Mongolian nobleman. He couldn't see any of them. It was the Han woman Li who saw the bottom of it. Yinding's "stupid" evaluation was not wronged.

"So, how can this situation be broken?"

Li did not answer directly, but smiled and said, "I heard that the young master would set up some points in Qingcheng and Bansheng City, and then set up some points along Baicheng and Liaodong. Forget it, just the point in Qingcheng, I want to do the next one."

"The silver ingot was originally..."

"He is him, I am me!"

In Zhang Han's layout, silver ingots are still a very important piece. Most of the bulk goods smuggled from Xinpingbao and the forts along the border will go west, and some will come to Qingcheng. Zhang Han himself plans to open a semicolon here to take action on some goods that are inconvenient to sell in the official and Yue markets, such as iron and other prohibited weapons. This point has been set up and planned to be taken care of by silver ingots. According to the proportion of the shopkeeper, the silver ingots are given dividends. Zhang Han sent the shopkeepers to take charge of them, and only the silver ingots occupy a name to eliminate the covetousness of other Taiji. This is a good business that both sides are cost-effective. In addition, silver ingots are still kept abreast of the words. He is responsible for escorting and caring for the smuggled goods from both sides. There are many more calculations. Silver ingots are also very generous to the Li family, but this woman is really greedy and even needs to get benefits.

"Young Master must think I'm greedy." Li seemed to see what Zhang Han thought, and smiled and said, "I do like silver, money, and silk, silk, and silk, and even more flamboyant. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have been sent to the grassland by the young master..."

"Well……"

Zhang Han was embarrassed. At this time, Li was indeed much more stable and mature than when he was in Xinpingbao. It seems that the climate on the squat is not only dangerous, but I am afraid that if you want to survive here, you will also have to put in some effort. Sure enough, if people change their environment, will they grow a little...

"Whether it is Qingcheng or Banshengdi, there are many displaced Han women, most of which are plundered... These sluts snatched the women and put them in the tent. The ones who gave birth to children were just slaves, and they also had to herd sheep and mow grass for them. If they could not give birth to children and were old, they would drive them out and ignore their life and death, and even reselled them a few hands until no one was willing to buy them."

Li said, his expression on his face became excited, and he stood up and said, "Young Master, come with me."

Zhang Han's heart was also a little shocked, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

He went out with Li, and the Jiang brothers outside the door hurriedly followed him. Li's face showed a disapproving look, but he didn't say much. Everyone walked forward with Li, late at night. Fortunately, the moonlight was still bright, and the Yinding Mansion was said to be similar to the Han mansion, but Hu Feng was very strong and the planning was very chaotic. Several buildings were random buildings in the east and west. When everyone arrived in front of a courtyard, Li stopped and pushed open the gate.

"Young Master, look."

Before Zhang Han was approaching, he smelled a foul smell. When he walked closer, he saw an old and dull woman sitting in the yard, dozens of people crowded together, her robes were torn and dirty, and she couldn't see the original color. There were some old women with a blank expression around him, all of whom were grey and grey. They were cooking porridge in a big pot and putting it in a bowl, and assigned it to the women sitting on the ground to eat. When the porridge bowl was handed over, the women's faces showed some vivid colors and reached out to pick up the porridge bowl.

"This is?"

Zhang Han's face was full of shock. He had never seen such a desperate look and such a dirty woman.

Li's face was full of sympathy and clapped his hands: "These are women plundered by the Tartars. They are sold to no more. I bought them when I saw them and asked them to do some rough work. But now there are so many people who buy them, so there is no such thing as to ask them to do it. Now the people of the silver ingot have a lot of opinions about me, so I want to ask you for a job to settle some people. Otherwise, if I meet such a person again, I will have no choice."

Only then did Zhang Han understand a little why the Li family changed so much.

She was also a maid and resold it a few times. The rudeness and nonsense were probably a kind of self-defense and defense, and she had to do so. Later, she was sent to Yinding. Not only was the place changed, but she even had different ethnic groups. Although Yinding loved her, she was inevitable to fight openly and secretly. She was alone and had no support. Then she found that this group of miserable women had different experiences from Li's family, but they were similar in essence. They were sold around and had no freedom. In this case, Li's family had a great change. Not only did they help others, but they were also very different from the past.

Zhang Han nodded silently, this time he had straightened out the things in front of him.

He looked at the situation in front of him and said a little, "How old are these women, and where are they from? How did they come here?"

"The stolen, the stolen, the scammered, the scammered, anyway, this is not easy to come."

Li said coldly, "The dead Tartars said they were settled. In the past few decades, they did not commit any offenses. Some of these women have been robbed for more than ten years, and the longest has been robbed for thirty years. It is really hard for her to live here for thirty years in this way!"
