History’s Strongest Shopkeeper - Chapter 14

[14. Chapter 14 Preparation for the War]

Crunch!

The door was slowly pushed open, and a man who looked about twenty-eight or nine years old walked in. He was covered in armor, wearing a light golden armor, with a long sword hanging on his waist, and two bright pieces on his chest. The breast mirror reflects the dazzling light.

“Name: Li Shimin.

Plane: Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.”

“What a coquettish man!” This was Zhou Yang’s first impression when he saw him.

“I’ve seen you, Emperor Tang.” Zhou Yang said with cupped hands to Li Shimin. He still admired this emperor very much. He was successful at a young age and could immediately go into battle to kill the enemy and govern the country. The Zhenguan rule he created will be China’s prestige has spread to the entire world.

“I’ve met the shopkeeper.” Li Shimin slightly cupped his hands and said anxiously, “I came here this time to ask for help, and I also ask the shopkeeper to help me.”

After Li Shimin finished speaking, there was a red nanmu box in his hand. Inside the wooden box was a long The lines on the dozens of centimeters of ginseng were clearly visible, and the beard and hair were intact, completely resembling a miniature old man. Zhou Yang even smelled a refreshing fragrance from it.

This is a spiritual ginseng that is far more than a thousand years old. Zhou Yang also obtained three thousand-year-old ginseng plants from the emperor’s private treasury in the late Han Dynasty. Although the three thousand-year-old ginseng plants were very similar to the ginseng in front of him, they lacked a fresh fragrance.

“I don’t know, what did Emperor Tang mean?” Zhou Yang asked, not taking the ginseng from Li Shimin’s hand. Although there was no estimate, the value of this ginseng was definitely higher than the thousand-year ginseng. The value of the thousand-year ginseng is 1,000 value points. If so, Zhou Yang was unable to complete the transaction with Emperor Tang, the consequences could be imagined, and he would definitely lose his life.

Li Shimin said coldly, “The Turks, Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan took advantage of the emptiness in the Tang Dynasty to send troops to Chang’an. This time, I would like to ask the shopkeeper to take action to repel the Turks.”

Defeat? rather than destruction.

“Li Shimin is really an emperor with strong self-esteem.” Zhou Yang secretly thought.

“Weishui Alliance.” Zhou Yang still knew about this, the Weishui Alliance, this was the second big stain in Li Shimin’s life after the Xuanwumen incident. Not long after he ascended the throne, he was attacked by the Turks near the capital Chang’an.

For the arrogant Li Shimin, it was a great shame and humiliation. After the Weishui crisis was resolved, the entire Tang Dynasty began to cut back on food and clothing. In the third year of Zhenguan, they directly sent troops to wipe out the eastern Turks in one fell swoop.

“Can the system directly enter the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties and conduct commodity transactions?” Zhou Yang asked in his heart. Even if he got some explosives for Li Shimin, he would not be able to rest assured if he did not take action himself and could only give up the transaction.

“You can only enter during the fixed trading period.” The system replied.

“I agreed to this matter, but it will take ten days to prepare.” Zhou Yang said excitedly. After Dong Zhuo was pacified, the historical direction of the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty had already changed beyond recognition. This made Zhou Yang, who wanted to participate in the Three Kingdoms’ struggle for hegemony, a little regretful, but now Just in time, he could gather the characters from the Three Kingdoms to clear other dungeons and fight a vigorous battle.

Li Shimin lowered his head and pondered for a while, then agreed. The Turkic troops were still some distance away from Chang’an and would not be able to threaten the city of Chang’an in ten days.

After handing the ginseng to Zhou Yang, Li Shimin left quickly. The Turks invaded, and the entire Tang Dynasty was in turmoil. Chang’an City needed him to be in charge at all times to appease people, otherwise he didn’t know what kind of panic it would cause.

“Ding dong! Found a three-thousand-year-old spiritual ginseng, estimated value: 8,000 value points.” Zhou Yang took the spiritual ginseng and heard the system prompt, and his heart suddenly tightened. 8,000 is ten times, which is a full 80,000. Once, Failure to complete the deal would definitely kill him.

Zhou Yang knew that he could not put all his hopes on the Three Kingdoms at the end of Han Dynasty. He had to make two preparations. After all, Li Shimin’s request was to repel the Turks. If the Turks refused to retreat, it would be a big trouble.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yang drove directly out of the villa. After parking the car in a parking area in the city, Zhou Yang walked towards an unmonitored area. Soon after, he saw a man about 1.6 meters tall. Ordinary men in suits and leather shoes walked towards “Tianxing Mining Co., Ltd.”

“Bone Shrinking Technique!” is

a very powerful skill in the Nine Yang Manual, which can directly change the height and appearance.

“Is the boss of your company here?” Zhou Yang entered the front desk and found a female customer service member playing with her mobile phone. He walked up and asked.

Before entering this company, Zhou Yang spent twenty value points to investigate and find out that the general manager of this state-owned enterprise had abused his power many times and misappropriated minerals. Once discovered, he would definitely spend his life in jail.

“Who are you? Do you want to see our boss whenever you want?” The female customer service officer looked at Zhou Yang with contempt, lowered her head and continued playing with her mobile phone.

boom!

“This is for you, go call your boss.” Zhou Yang took out 10,000 Huaxia coins from the system space and threw it on her face.

“I’ll be there right away.” Not only was the female customer service person not angry, but she also looked flattering. She quickly picked up the Huaxia coins scattered on the ground, put them in her arms, and ran to the second floor with a smile on her face.

Zhou Yang walked into the reception room nearby, sat down, and waited quietly.

After a while, a middle-aged man came over.

“I am Li Hou, general manager of the company.” Li Hou said politely.

Zhou Yang stretched out his hand to shake his hand and said, “There is a special item. I hope I can buy some from Mr. Li.”

“What special item?” Li Hou asked doubtfully.

“Explosives.” Zhou Yang whispered.

“Do you want a license?” Li Hou’s expression changed slightly. If it was a mining company, he wouldn’t mind reselling some explosives.

“No.”

“Hurry up and leave. Our company is a serious company. Be careful as I call the security guard.”

“You don’t know about the Sanfeng Mine, do you?” Zhou Yang said calmly.

Li Hou’s pupils shrank, and his body couldn’t help but tremble. He was naturally familiar with the Sanfeng Mine. He had used his position to directly resell ore worth three million. This was done very secretly, how could it still be discovered?

“No, explosives are items strictly prohibited by the state. We have a certain amount of explosives here.” Li Hou’s tone trembled slightly.

“Ten million in reward.” Zhou Yang continued as if he didn’t hear Li Hou’s words.

“How much do you want?” Li Hou was obviously shocked by this number. He had never made so much money after being a general manager for four years, and he couldn’t help swallowing and spitting.

“The more, the better.” Zhou Yang said.

“I can only misappropriate 100kg of explosives at most, otherwise I will definitely be discovered.” Li Hou looked around and said softly.

“I want a ton.” Zhou Yang said.

“One ton, our company only has more than one ton of explosives in total. If one ton is missing, it will definitely be discovered.” Li Hou said anxiously.

“I’ll add another ten million, half a ton can’t be less.” Zhou Yang knew that he couldn’t ask for more, otherwise Li Hou would definitely not agree.

Li Hou gritted his teeth and said, “Okay.”

After a while, Li Hou drove Zhou Yang out of the city in a van and stopped in a suburb.

“The goods are all placed here.” Li Hou put down the explosives and left in a hurry.

Seeing no one around, Zhou Yang thought and came to the Three Kingdoms with explosives.

After placing the explosives in a safe house, Zhou Yang went straight to the palace and asked for some imperial edicts to mobilize troops.

At the same time, Zhou Yang also asked Liu Bian to draft several edicts for conquest, and Liu Bian did not hesitate at all.
