Datang romantic little landlord

Merchants on the Silk Road mostly carried silk, pearls, precious stones, gold coins, etc., which were expensive and relatively light, so they were easy to transfer and sell stolen goods, and they were the most attractive "fat meat" in the eyes of bandits.

In order to protect themselves, the caravans traveling to and from the Western Regions are not small, and they all have certain armed forces.

The monkey is an animal that is smart, alert, and possesses great energy.Most caravans in the Western Regions will raise monkeys to watch at night to prevent wild animals or bandits from attacking the caravan.

This is why archaeologists of later generations unearthed many monkey-carrying camel figurines on the Silk Road in the Western Regions.

And Wu Chengen wrote "Journey to the West", the prototype monkey of Monkey King is actually derived from the monkeys raised by caravans on the Silk Road.

Among Bai Mobi's caravan, there are naturally monkeys, and because this monkey is quite clever, Bai Mobi likes it very much.So on weekdays, wherever he goes, he likes to take this monkey with him.

"Haha, don't worry, this monkey is very well-behaved and won't cause trouble."

"That's good." The driver nodded and didn't say much, he waved his whip and the carriage moved forward slowly.

Bai Mobi and the servant sat in the carriage, looking around curiously, feeling that everything was very novel.He didn't expect that such a novelty as a public carriage would appear after he didn't come to Chang'an City in just half a year.

The carriage moved forward, and soon, Bai Mobi discovered something new...

655 Don't Be Messy

On the stagecoach, there was a pile of ink-printed paper, but I didn't know what it was for.

When Bai Mobi was really surprised, he saw the carriage stopped slowly again, and some guests in the carriage got on the carriage.

The passenger who got on the bus was a young man dressed as a scholar.Seeing Bai Mobi, the barbarian merchant, in the carriage, he bowed his hands to him politely, as a greeting.

"Yufu, today's football newspaper is out? Great, I'll buy one, and I put it into the cash box including the fare." The scholar threw out the copper coins, grabbed a football newspaper, and sat down on his seat. On the way, regardless of the bumps of the carriage, he began to read with relish.

Bai Mobi couldn't bear to be impatient and curious, he hesitated for a while, but couldn't help asking: "My lord, dare I ask you what article you bought?"

The scholar said with a smile: "This is the ball newspaper, oh, it is the report and analysis on batting matches."

"A polo match?" Bai Mobi was a little puzzled. Of course, he knew that polo was also the favorite sport of all countries in the Western Regions.However, it is very difficult for him to understand the special "ball newspaper" analysis report for the batting game.

Seeing his perplexed expression, the scholar explained, "It's the Royal Fighting League of the Tang Dynasty, which was created by Hu County Bo. There are 22 Forbidden Army fighting teams participating, and they will fight against each other on holidays every ten days. It’s wonderful. And this newspaper is reporting these games.”

Huxian Bo again?

This is already the second time Bai Mobi has heard of the earl's name today.He secretly recorded the name of the earl in his heart, it seems that this earl of Hu County is also a great honor in Chang'an City.

After Bai Mobi thanked the scholar, he also invested a penny and bought a ball newspaper from Yu Fu.

As the royal family of the Kucha Kingdom, he naturally knows Chinese characters, which is also a compulsory course for the nobles of the vassal states around the Tang Dynasty.It is not uncommon for many vassal states that do not have their own scripts to directly use the Central Plains scripts as their own.

Bai Mobi flipped through the football newspaper with relish, and he was very interested in the content published on it.

"Excuse me, where is the Dazhao batting field above?" Bai Mobi looked at the information about the batting competition in the ball newspaper, and asked the scholar curiously.

"Haha, talking about the Dazhao batting field, it's amazing. This is the batting field built by Bomi of Huxian County at a cost of 2 taels of gold. It can accommodate [-] people to watch the game at the same time. Call it a miracle. If you have free time, you must go and see for yourself. This Dazhao Strike Field is where the original Da’an Square and Zhaoxing Square are located.”

Speaking of the Dazhao Batting Field, the scholar is full of pride.

When Bai Mobi heard the words, his astonishment and shock were beyond words.

Is that Hu County uncle again?

2 taels of gold to build a batting field?Tsk tsk, even a wealthy businessman like Bai Mobi was stunned to hear this amount.It is so incredible what kind of character this earl is.

And the batting field that can accommodate 10 people watching the game is beyond Bai Mobi's imagination.Their Kucha country, the total population of the whole country is less than [-], what kind of magnificent building will it be?

Bai Mobi remembered the batting league and the Dazhao batting match in his mind again, and planned to go to the batting match on the next match day to see for himself what kind of grand occasion the batting match would be.

He was talking to the scholar, and the carriage was already filled with passengers, and soon the carriage was not only full of people, but also many passengers stood in the middle of the carriage.

After many passengers get on the bus, those who can read will happily buy a football newspaper like the scholar, and read it with gusto.Those who were illiterate begged hard, asking someone to explain the content of today's ball newspaper for themselves and others.

Bai Mobi looked at the people in the carriage, talking about the game, it was very lively.

"Everyone, that Li Tianshou published an article again, have you read it?"

"Naturally, on the next game day, the old man can't say, so I will buy lottery tickets according to Li Tianshou's analysis."

"Hey, it's a pity. I didn't believe Li Tianshou in the last round of competition. Who would have thought that the young master of the Lai Kingdom only guessed the results of two games correctly, and he lost a lot."

"Isn't it? Who would have thought of this? I don't know who this Li Tianshou is, but he is four out of five, which is really amazing! Tsk tsk, in the last round of the competition, I saw someone who took five taels of gold. According to that Li Tianshou’s analysis went to buy lottery tickets. The old man persuaded him to come. Now, it seems that he is a smart person. Five taels of gold has become eight taels. I really admire others. Hey, why didn’t the old man follow that day Where is the person betting?"

There was a sigh in the carriage.

In the last round of the competition, most people bought lottery tickets after reading Du He's predictions, but unexpectedly lost quite badly.

For this reason, Du He's group of dandies were almost cursed by the people of Chang'an City.

No one expected that the analysis and prediction articles written by the little-known "Li Tianshou" who was ridiculed before were so accurate.Out of five games, he guessed four correctly. How amazing is this?

Some people who lost the game even guessed without malice, maybe it wasn't Huxian Bo who colluded with Li Tianshou to cheat?

However, this kind of speculation naturally has no market. After all, Li Tianshou's prediction results were clearly published on the football newspaper. If he had listened to Li Tianshou's words and bought lottery tickets, he would have won money.

Who cheats and tells others with drums and gongs?

Therefore, this can only be the little-known "Li Tianshou", who has a very high level of analysis and a unique vision for the attack.

For a while, the city of Chang'an felt a bit expensive in Luoyang, and the new issue of the ball newspaper was sold out quickly. Everyone was talking about Li Tianshou and the ball newspaper, discussing his next game prediction, and discussing what should be done. How to buy lottery tickets.

Who is Li Tianshou?

No one in Chang'an City knows, even the court officials are guessing and inquiring.Some people also speculated that this Li Tianshou might not be the alias of Li Wangyou, the uncle of Hu County, right?

Knowing who Li Tianshou belonged to, they all kept silent, even the dudes didn't dare to publicize that Li Er was Li Tianshou's affair.

In the big city of Chang'an, Li Tianshou has become a mysterious figure who can't see the end of the dragon.

The sullen and narcissistic Li Er was very proud after receiving the news from Baiqisi.In particular, Mi Tuo could not get tired of watching the public opinion collected by Baiqisi's secret agents in Chang'an City.

"In the two counties of Wannian in Chang'an, there was a heated discussion about a person named Li Tianshou. This person published an article on the ball newspaper run by Hu County Bo, predicting the outcome of the batting match. Li Tianshou's writing was sharp and he had a unique vision. , Accurately predicted four of the five games, which moved the public. Bai Qisi still doesn't know the details of this person, and has not yet verified it."

Li Er looked at the report presented by Baiqisi in his hand, then glanced at Mi Tuo beside him, and picked up the teacup: "Mi Tuo, tell Baiqisi not to meddle in his own business."

Mi Tuo naturally understood Li Er's meaning, and quickly bowed: "No, everyone, the slaves will warn them, don't worry about it."

Is not this nonsensical?

Li Tianshou is Li Er, Bai Qisi is going to find out who Li Tianshou is, isn't that full of food?Mi Tuo, who knew the inside story, naturally wouldn't let Baiqisi do such a stupid thing.

Li Er nodded in satisfaction, read the report of Baiqisi again, and then picked up the ball report at hand and read it carefully.

What happened in Tai Chi Palace naturally has nothing to do with the public.
