Enter the Tang Dynasty with space

Chapter 152
Si Yehu's decision was a helpless move, but what he didn't expect was that Datang gained great prestige because of it, and the Emperor Li Shimin of Datang won the title of "Heavenly Khan". Let's not mention it for now.

Fifteen days later, Kasang prepared all the gold, silver and jewels, brought his credentials, and escorted the convoy of Nushibibu Princess Ke Kelan, and set off for Alashan Pass again.Ke Kelan is Si Yehu's biological younger sister. She is twenty-eight years old, with a graceful figure and a cute face. She is a real Turkic beauty.

When he arrived at Alashankou, Kasang was shocked by the sudden appearance of Alashankou County.The city completely blocked the south side of the Alashan Pass and stood erect on the Shuanghe prairie.The height of the city reaches 20 meters, and the length from east to west and from north to south is 3000 meters. If the Turks want to attack the Western Regions in the future, it is better not to leave Alashankou, because this city is basically guarded by one man, and no one can open it.Unless you can fly over the mountains on both sides.

Checkpoints have been set up at the gates of the city, and the newly established border police are checking passers-by.Although the two countries have not formally established trade relations, Alashankou is a necessary place for many businessmen in the past.Under Yang Zheng's instruction, the newly established Alashankou County is still open to the outside world, but inspections are very strict, and new types of taxes → import duties are imposed on various commodities.

Import tariffs are aimed at all products that are going to be sold to Datang. This thing is definitely a big killer. If you want to make money, you have to pay taxes. Of course, if you have the ability, you can also pay the tariff money on sheep through wool Earn it back; if you have no ability, then you earn less, or lose money.

Kasan was a little dazed watching, the Tang people moved too fast, and his side had no reaction at all. No wonder the Tang army was able to expand suddenly. With this quality, the Western Turkic ministries are completely incomparable.

Kassan called a follower: "Yao Kur, you go back and report the situation here to Khan."

"Yes!"

Kasang hoped that Si Yehu would quickly go to the west of Alashan Pass to make arrangements, and also quickly build a city like Tang Jun's, and at the same time start border trade.Tang Jun can do it, don't we Turkic people know how to learn?As long as you work hard, the Turkic Khanate will definitely rise again!
The Turkic convoy was stopped, and a border policeman came for a routine inspection.

"Master, we are the envoys of the Turkic Nushibi Department. We are going to Chang'an City to meet the Emperor of Tang and present our credentials." Kasang revealed his identity and said this time in the form of submitting his credentials. He went to see Li Shimin instead of officials from the Western Regions Province, so he was full of confidence.

"Really? Where is the credentials? Who is sitting in this carriage?" The border police ignored Kasan and asked for credentials while lifting the curtain of the carriage.

"Master Jun, you can't do this. This car is my Turkic Princess Ke Kelan, who is also the future imperial concubine of the Tang Dynasty." Kasang complained in his heart. Li Shimin, isn't this person afraid of Li Shimin's crime?

Even so, the border policeman still insisted on inspecting the carriage. For him, sticking to his post is the greatest responsibility. Don’t say what you are bragging about the future emperor and concubine of the Tang Dynasty. Even if he really came, he would not be afraid. Because Yang Zheng was behind him.All vehicles entering the customs must be inspected to prevent tax evasion and avoid danger.

Kasang felt ruthless in his heart: Hmph, you stupid boy, when I get to Chang'an, I will give you a book in front of Li Shimin, so that you can't eat it and walk around.

The curtain of the car was opened, and the border police saw that it was indeed a woman, so they didn't go too far.Then he took a look at the letter of credence handed over by Kasang, and said, "Hey, it's really a Turkic mission. You go to the city and report to the county government. Then the Datang Western Regions State Hotel will welcome you."

Kassan was taken aback: Datang State Hotel in the Western Regions?WTF?

When the Turkic convoy entered Alashankou County, Kasan was even more surprised.There are various shops in the county town, which seems to be an ancient commodity wholesale market!Merchants traveling from south to north are choosing their favorite goods in the city, all of them are in high spirits.There is no doubt that Datang's tea, silk, ceramics and other commodities are the most in demand. These domestic products transported by Yang Zheng in space have made people in Central Asian countries rush to purchase.Yang Zheng is the general wholesaler, and the shops buy goods from Yang Zheng, and then resell them to wholesale to merchants from various countries to profit from it.The superiority of the border city was also seen by the merchants. Alashankou County was built only a few days ago, and merchants from all over the Western Regions who heard the news occupied the shops, and the business of Alashankou County was started at once.

The development of commerce and trade will get better and better with the stability of the border. According to Yang Zheng's vision, Alashankou County will become an important link connecting Datang and Central Asian countries. Once the status of this emerging city is confirmed, it will be given to Datang. It will bring huge benefits and bring the civilization of Tang Dynasty to the people of Central Asian countries and even the people of the world.

To expand Datang's influence, commerce is no less important than war.After all, war is not eternal, but business can last longer.

There are countless restaurants and inns in Alashankou County.Commerce and trade have brought a large number of floating population, so these industries have ushered in vigorous business opportunities.

Naturally, Yang Zheng won't stand by and watch. The Alashankou Hotel is Yang Zheng's property. This hotel integrates catering, accommodation, and wholesale of vegetables, fruits, and livestock. Yang Shi, Yang Shishi, and Yang Twelve are in charge. , After practicing in Chang'an City for so long, these guys can now be independent.

Whether it is the scale of the hotel or the quality of the operation, the Alashankou Hotel is superior, so the business is not bad.And the livestock wholesale that Hu people are most optimistic about is limited in supply every day, which makes the number of Hu people waiting every day countless.

At this time, the Turkic convoy happened to pass by the Alashankou Hotel, delicious and fragrant, and Ke Kelan in the carriage couldn't help but lift the curtain to look out!
"Stop! Kassan, let's rest in this restaurant for the night, the princess is tired." Ke Kelan couldn't restrain the temptation of delicious food, so she decided to go in and try it.

"Yes, princess." Kassan couldn't bear to contradict Ke Kelan's intentions. Besides, he wanted to taste such a delicious taste, so that he could learn some experience and open a similar restaurant in Turkic China to make money.

When the convoy arrived at the entrance of Alashankou Hotel, the doorman had already come to greet them.Yang Zheng built the Alashankou Hotel in full compliance with the standards of modern society. The hotel had an underground parking lot, so the doorman had to enthusiastically drive the Turkic convoy's carriage to the parking lot.

"What are you doing?" Kassan hurriedly stopped him. There were valuable gold, silver and jewels in the carriage. Naturally, he wanted the guards to watch at the hotel entrance.

"Sir, the rule of our hotel is that no vehicles can be parked at the entrance. You see there are so many people here. How can we do business if everyone parks their carriages at the entrance? Don't worry, our parking lot is very safe. You If you have valuables, you can register them at the counter immediately. If they are lost, you will be compensated according to the price. However, do you know who runs this hotel? Hehe, let alone no one dares to steal things here, even if there are, it will only take a minute I caught it." The doorman explained with a proud face.

Kassan asked curiously, "Whose restaurant is this?"

"The restaurant of Grand Marshal Dai Guogong! Who do you think dares to cause trouble here? Oh, Marshal, why are you here?" The doorman just said something, and suddenly saw Yang Zheng coming, and hurried forward to salute.

"What's the matter? What's the matter with this man?" Yang Zheng couldn't help feeling upset when he saw a convoy of motorcades blocking a lot of roads at the entrance of the restaurant.

"Commander, it's like this. These Turkic people are afraid that the things in the car will be lost, so they want the carriage to stop at the entrance of the hotel. The villain will go and talk to them." The doorman was already complaining about Kasang and the others. No, I lost face in front of the commander-in-chief, so I took the broken carriage, who cares.

However, Yang Zheng reached out to stop the door boy and walked over in person.

"Are you Turkic people? Don't worry, I'm here. You can't lose your things. Go to the counter to register, and then go in to eat with peace of mind." The visitors are customers, and Yang Zheng naturally wants to appease and solicit.

Kasan was a little excited. He didn't expect that the man in front of him was the Great Marshal of the Tang Dynasty. He looked like an ordinary young man, but he didn't expect it to be a Turkic nightmare.

Kasang hurriedly said: "It turned out to be the Grand Marshal, and I am Kasang, the emissary of the Turkic Nushibi Department. This time, I brought the letter of credence that I Khan gave to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and at the same time escorted the princess to Chang'an for a marriage. Come to exchange papers."

"Haha, it turned out to be Your Excellency the Messenger! The one sitting in this carriage must be Her Royal Highness the Princess! Hurry up and invite someone to come and clean up one of the upper rooms. This commander will personally entertain the Turkic Princess and the Messenger!" Yang Zheng thought to himself. I'm happy, it turned out to be a Turkic envoy. It seems that the Turkic people are powerless to fight anymore.

Kasang was also very happy. Yang Zheng received him in person, and he should have saved money on meals and accommodation, and he could also take the opportunity to make some Turkic requests. Can vigorously develop the national strength.

"Since the Generalissimo is so kind, we will be disrespectful. Princess, the Generalissimo of the Tang Dynasty has invited us to be guests, what do you think the princess would like?" Kasang accepted Yang Zheng's invitation, and at the same time asked Ke Ke who had not had time to get out of the car. Lan asked for instructions.

"That's very good, thank you Generalissimo." Ke Kelan's voice was pleasant, and then the curtain of the car was lifted, and a wonderful person came down.

"I've seen Your Highness the Princess!" Yang Zheng cupped his hands slightly, giving Ke Kelan a lot of face.

"Generalissimo, you are welcome. The name of Generalissimo is very popular. This princess has heard about it in front of her brother many times. When I saw her today, she is indeed a young hero, and her reputation is well-deserved." Ke Kelan's eyes lit up, and she obviously liked Yang Zheng's image. Good impression, young hero, handsome and unrestrained, if the person in front of me is the person in front of me, how great it would be.

Yang Zheng smiled and said: "Princess, you are too flattering. The hotel has prepared rooms. Princess, everyone, please come!"
