Turbulent Times Chapter 1630: The magical story told by Nie Xiaoyu

"That's right, it must be like this." Li Jiancheng firmly believed that his idea was correct.

However, it didn't take long for Li Jiancheng to discover that the carriage was going all the way to the southwest, and Jinyang Palace was in the southeast of Taiyuan City. He clearly guessed wrong again.

"Perhaps Wang Junlin is not in Taiyuan County. After all, he just occupied the eight counties of Hedong, so it's normal to visit other counties." Li Jiancheng wondered again.

"It's just that there are no soldiers and horses to **** me after walking such a long way. Are you not afraid that I will be rescued?" Li Jiancheng thought so, opened the curtain and looked around. Maybe Tibetans, that is to say, there is no one in the secret Far East Army to guard him. There is really only a one-armed disabled old man and this... witch in front of him.

Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng glanced at Nie Xiaoyu secretly, but unexpectedly, Nie Xiaoyu, who had been silent and ignored him, suddenly said, "I'll tell you a story, do you want to listen?"

Li Jiancheng was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but feel flattered, and quickly said: "Listen, I am willing to listen."

………

Almost at the same time, Shen Guo'er was also escorted out from the gate guard, and left Chang'an City, heading northeast all the way.

However, compared with Nie Xiaoyu and Chunqiu Nu who escorted Li Jiancheng, the team escorting Shen Guoer was extremely large.

Not to mention the sword **** and Shen Guo'er in a carriage, besides hundreds of masters, there were a total of 5,000 elite riders blocking the carriage tightly.

"That is to say, King Qin An is willing to exchange the eldest son of King Tang with other heroes in the world for a subordinate, and a woman at that. It is absolutely impossible for him to do such a stupid thing." bottle, said with some emotion.

Shen Guoer didn't look at the Sword God, but fixedly stared at the glass bottle in the hands of the Sword God, to be precise, he was looking at the little silver snake in the glass bottle.

Glass bottles were produced by the Fanyang County Glass Factory under Wang Junlin's rule. In later generations, they were only the cheapest and most common things, but now they are real luxury goods.

Although it is in a hostile force, this does not prevent Li Yuan Group from being the main customer of Fanyang County Glass Factory.

No way, the Li Yuan Group has gathered most of the world's aristocratic families, and only these aristocratic aristocrats can buy a glass bottle with ten taels of silver.

Although Li Yuan, Li Shimin and others knew that Wang Junlin had earned a lot of money from various aristocratic families through various glass products, they had discussed with various aristocratic families and even ordered them not to buy glass products from Fanyang County, but obviously this This kind of thing cannot be prohibited at all.

Because under the joint operation and publicity of Xiaoyu Theater and Fanyang Chamber of Commerce, glass products have become a symbol of identity in the world. It can be regarded as the identity and family status of a great aristocrat and aristocratic family.

The aristocratic family who consider themselves the most noble and superior in the world will never allow anyone to despise them in this regard.

What's more, although many aristocratic families have always disliked Wang Junlin, this does not prevent Wang Junlin from becoming a living legend in modern warfare.

Under the publicity of the Rain Theater, there is a beautiful and catchy story about the appearance of this glass, but this story is related to Wang Junlin.

With Wang Junlin's current fame and status, even giants such as the Seven Clans and Five Surnames and the Dugu Clan have to look up to him, and things related to him have naturally become symbols of status.

In fact, the largest market for glass products is in Jiangnan.

Although most of the seven clans and five surnames and powerful families are in the north, since ancient times, the richest people have always been in the south of the Yangtze River. This has not changed even in the modern society of later generations.

According to the economic income ratio reported by Fanyang Chamber of Commerce to Wang Junlin at the end of last year, the income of the glass factory has exceeded that of the cement factory, brick factory, shipyard, backer winery, Lihua perfume workshop, Xiaoyu theater, etc. Among the many street businesses under Wang Junlin's rule, it is the most profitable business.

The reason for this is that, apart from the successful marketing strategies of Fanyang Chamber of Commerce and Xiaoyu Theater, the most important thing is that the cost of glass products is too low compared to other streets, and the gap between the selling price and the cost price is even impressive. The cost price can be ignored directly.

On this point, when Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu chatted, it was a pity that in a peaceful age, especially a prosperous age, the profit of glass products would be considered huge!

Seeing that Shen Guoer ignored him, the Sword God was a little annoyed, and snorted coldly, "Although I can't kill you, I can cut your little spirit snake in half with one sword."

Shen Guoer's complexion changed, and he said in a cold voice: "If you dare to kill my little silver, I can ask Master Xiaoyu to cut off one of Li Jiancheng's arms and one leg when we exchange for the heir of Tang Wang. Just make sure he doesn't die."

Thinking of the stunning girl who chased and killed him a few days ago, the sword **** touched the wound on his left arm that hadn't healed, his face suddenly became gloomy, he snorted coldly and stopped talking.

A few days ago, while Nie Xiaoyu was fighting with the No. 1 King of Assassins, he suddenly appeared and snatched Shen Guoer away. Wan Jingqi responded to himself.

Although Nie Xiaoyu and No. 1 Killer King were forced to retreat by ten thousand fine riders, Nie Xiaoyu shot thirteen arrows in one breath before the ten thousand troops, killing hundreds of people, including thirteen general.

In order to protect one of the generals, the sword **** was caught by Nie Xiaoyu and shot an arrow in the arm.

Sword God is a very vengeful person, so for this revenge, he made some preparations for the hostage exchange between the two sides three days later, and even made a deal with a certain existence.

He didn't expect to be able to kill that enchantress named Nie Xiaoyu, but at least he had to kill her to get rid of the hatred in his heart.

………

Fifteen years of great cause, March 7th.

The intersection of Hedong and Guanzhong, Tongguan.

Tongguan is adjacent to the Yellow River in the north and on the mountainside in the south. "Shui Jing Zhu" once recorded: "The river flows south in the pass to Tongjiguan Mountain, because it is called Tongguan."

Tongguan City was built in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It is the real east gate of Guanzhong since ancient times, and it has always been a battleground for military strategists.

Since Tongguan is located at the ferry of the Yellow River, it is located at the hub of Hedong, Guanzhong, and the Central Plains, and the hub of the post road from Chang'an to Luoyang.

It is the must-pass and defensive pass of the west entering the Guanzhong and the Western Regions. It has always been a place for military strategists to contend for. "Four Towns Throat", "Hundred Two Passes" and other reputations.

In fact, this is true. The Far East Army's army from the river or attacking Guanzhong was firmly blocked here. If Wang Junlin wants to send troops to Guanzhong, he must first capture Tongguan City.

However, today's Tongguan City is no longer the Guancheng established in the Eastern Han Dynasty, but built on the loess plateau. In the fourth year after Yang Guang became emperor, he was obsessed with patrolling the world, but he didn't know the damage to the place and the people. Not to mention the huge burden, every place he goes likes to point fingers, change something, and leave a place that can be passed on for many years or that future generations know that he has visited here, so as to show what he thinks he is.

In that year, Yang Guang traveled through Tongguan City. He heard that Tongguan City was the place where the emperor personally decided to build Guancheng in the Eastern Han Dynasty. How much people's fat and anointment will be spent on the decision, and with one order, 50,000 people were mobilized, 300,000 taels of silver and 500,000 shi of grain were collected from the local area, and the entire Tongguan City was moved several miles to the south.

At that time, the Sui Dynasty was still building the Great Wall in the north, the new capital of Luoyang, and the Grand Canal. It recruited millions of people from all over the world, left barren fields, and started infrastructure projects.

Now, the reason why Li Yuan and Wang Junlin chose this place to exchange hostages is not because it is a dangerous pass, but because it has something to do with the specific terrain of this place.

The situation in Tongguan is very dangerous, surrounded by mountains and peaks, deep valleys and precipices, high mountains and narrow roads, and a narrow narrow path in the middle, which can only accommodate one car and one horse. In the past, people often compared the danger of the situation here with "the danger of thin roads and the struggle of apes" and "the danger of Tongguan on the road of the world".

In such a place, it is difficult for both sides to spread out their armies and prepare more manpower, so they don't have to worry too much about ambush or other means.

So, Nie Xiaoyu only let Chunqiu Nu drive a carriage, and brought Li Jiancheng here.

As for the Li Yuan Group, after leaving Tongguan City, Shen Guoer was carried forward by the sword **** and a coachman. Five thousand cavalry and more than a hundred masters stayed in Tongguan City.

After arriving here, looking at the majestic Tongguan City from a distance, if Li Jiancheng still doesn't understand that he will be exchanged and rescued by his father, then he might as well just bump his head to death in Tongguan City, and go back to be some kind of Tang prince's son.

It's just because Nie Xiaoyu never talked much except telling him some strange stories and doing some strange things along the way, and he didn't dare to ask more.

So, Li Jiancheng still doesn't know how important his father has captured the Far East Army, so that Wang Junlin is willing to exchange himself, the heir of the Tang Dynasty.

However, Li Jiancheng thinks this way most of the time, and sometimes deep down in his heart, Wang Junlin doesn't take himself seriously at all, and doesn't take himself seriously. And every time he had such thoughts, he was very depressed, which was even more depressing and painful than when he was disappointed by his father since he was a child.

So, up to now, Li Jiancheng is still secretly regretting and upset that Wang Junlin didn't meet him from the beginning to the end, and he is also very curious about the person he exchanged with.
