On the golden Silk Road, there is a hub city. He was located in the heart of the Western Regions. The fertile soil and convenient transportation in the watershed gave birth to the people here, and also brought countless wealth to this land.

This city was the capital of the Kang Kingdom, Samochen.

Samojian is what people called it in the Tang Dynasty. The other name bestowed upon it in later history books was famous in history and even in the world-Samarkand.

If Great Tang Chang’an was the most magnificent and spectacular city in the world, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it the number one city under the heavens. As the core city of the Silk Road, Samojian was the richest city in the world.

It is said to be home to more than half the wealth of all countries across the Silk Road. If one gathered the wealth carried by the merchants walking here, it would be enough to be equivalent to a Great Tang Empire!

There were rumors that it was exaggerated and untrue, but it was enough to show how wealthy Samuel Jian was.

At this moment, Wu Meiniang and her large caravan were sailing into the rumored number one “city of commerce” in the world.

“Boss, why did we come all the way here?” Su Lianqing, who was sitting in the same carriage as Wu Meiniang, opened the window and looked out. She muttered a little unhappily, “There are big bearded ghosts with big noses, green eyes, red hair, and blue hair everywhere. They smell like sheep. These city walls and houses are too weird. It’s just uncomfortable to look left and right.”

Wu Meiniang, who had traveled a long distance, looked tired. She tilted her car and said indifferently, “I didn’t ask you to follow me.”

“Hey, that’s not kind of you to say that!” Su Lianqing said angrily, “Didn’t I think about your safety? I left my precious son behind less than three months ago to travel with you to this damned place. You didn’t even have a good word for me!”

This sentence seemed to pierce through Wu Meiniang’s heart. She lightly knitted her brows and said, “Am I not?”

“I really don’t understand!” Su Lianqing said, “Could it be that in the eyes of the merchants, there’s nothing else but money? It’s been more than a year since you met Qin Mubai. You just gave birth to your precious son, and you have the heart to abandon them and run to this damn place thousands of miles away to mess around?-I really don’t know what you’re trying to do!”

“You’ll know in the future.” Wu Meiniang heaved a sigh of relief and patted the carriage board loudly, “Find a merchant post to settle down as soon as possible. Everyone will rest for a good day!”

“Yes, master!”

Su Lianqing curled her lips and continued to glance out of the window. “This place is really lively. There are even more people in West City of Chang’an.” The streets were piled up with goods like mountains, and there was no way to get through the mountains and seas of people. This was still a period of chaos–wow, was that Dawan Horse? How beautiful! I want to buy one for my man! –No, two! Boss, can you lend me some money? That man in my family has no other hobbies. He loves horses! ”

“Alright, stop nagging!” Wu Meiniang said impatiently, “Luckily, you’re also an old martial artist. It’s rare!”–This trip is special, don’t be reckless! ”

“Isn’t it just doing business to earn money? What’s so special about it?”

“Anyway, don’t run around if you’re fine. Follow me obediently and don’t cause any trouble! If anything happens, I will definitely not care about you. Let’s say the ugly words first!”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you!”

After a while, a large caravan of more than three hundred carriages from the Wu clan firm settled down in a Scottish-owned merchant post.

After getting off the carriage, Wu Meiniang personally stepped forward and spoke fluent Sogdian to the stewards of the Shang Yi. Su Lianqing was confused. After Wu Meiniang finished talking, she asked, “Owner, what did you say? Why can’t I understand a single word?”

“You’ve been following me all these years, and you can’t even speak a word of Sogdian.” Wu Meiniang smiled and said, “I speak Sogdian.” The owner of this shop is from Scotland, which is what we often call ‘Zhaowu Nine Surnames Hu People’. If you want to walk on the Silk Road of the Western Regions, it is impossible not to understand Sogdian and Sogdian. It is like the Mandarin of our Great Tang. Not only that, but there were also a large number of Sogdian merchants living in the interior of the Great Tang Dynasty. Sogdian and Sogdian were things that merchants had to learn. “Of course, the exception is for unscrupulous peddlers.”

“Is it so mysterious?” Su Lianqing rolled her eyes and said in confusion, “Zhaowu Nine Surnames Hu? … Oh, that sounds familiar! It seems like there are quite a few Hu people with Zhaowu Nine Surnames in Chang’an, Luoyang, and other places!”

“You really should read more!” Wu Meiniang shook her head and smiled. “The nine surnames of Zhao Wu are the descendants of the Great Moon People, and some of them have mixed Xiongnu blood left behind by Qin and Han Dynasties. The name ‘Zhaowu’ originated from Zhaowu City in the Hexi Corridor. Originally, it was the capital of the Great Moon Clan. Back then, when the Xiongnu forced the Ju Clan to move westward, the name of the capital also moved westward. Zhaowu originally meant’capital ‘. After moving west, the Great Moon Country was gradually divided into nine countries, and Kang Country was the sovereign country of the nine countries. The nine surnames of Zhaowu, Hu, were best at doing business-the capital city of Kang, Shamo Jian, was the place where all the merchants in the world gathered. “If a businessman doesn’t come to Samoa and leave, he will have wasted his life!”

“It’s so complicated, I don’t understand!” Su Lianqing curled her lips and said, “I only know that doing business means buying cheap and selling expensive, making money and leaving. How can I be like you? You’ve made a clear understanding of the eight generations of their ancestors. Are you tired?”

Wu Meiniang smiled and said, “If the public wants to do a good job, they must first sharpen their weapons. Business is actually like fighting a war. If you want to earn money from the other party, the other party also wants to earn money from you. How can you win if you don’t understand the other party first? I wanted to see the famous Samojian from the beginning of my business. For this reason, I spent several years studying Sogdian and Sogdian. Moreover, even if they were to do business in the Great Tang, they would have to deal with the Sogdians. The Sogdians were a miraculous, industrious, and intelligent people. Their merchants were all over the world, making all the wealth in the world. Wherever they went, they were bound to be rich. Even in places like Chang’an and Luoyang, Sogdian merchants were famous figures. The first wealthy merchant of the Tang Dynasty, Zheng Anshun, had six Sogdians as stewards. Everyone was able to handle the surroundings on their own, and it was truly astonishing how capable they were. The Sogdians are all merchants of genius! ”

“Ho! I’ve never heard you praise someone like that!” Su Lianqing clicked her tongue and said, “According to what you said, the Sogdians are really that amazing?”

As he spoke, a man, about forty years old, walked out of the main hall of the commercial post. He wore a tight white robe with narrow sleeves and a tall pointed brim hat. His blue eyes and beard were tall and his nose was straight. He was welcoming him with a smile on his face.

“I, Kang De, am the shopkeeper of the store. I warmly welcome the distinguished guests of the Great Tang from afar!” He actually speaks a fairly fluent Chinese.

“So it’s the Kang Clan. I’m Wu Meiniang. I’m so courteous.” Wu Meiniang returned the greeting and smiled, “Dongkang Clan’s Han language is very fluent, and his Han name is also very authentic. He must have been to the Great Tang, right?”

“I have been doing business in Chang’an and Luoyang for more than ten years. That is my second hometown. I have only recently returned to my hometown. Therefore, I am very kind to meet the distinguished guests from the Eastern Great Tang!” Kang Delai said affectionately and kindly, “It’s hard for distinguished guests to come from afar. Why don’t you go in and rest first?” Whenever there is anything important to do, the Wu Dong Clan only needs to give orders. Whether it was contacting the government to apply for a pa. S.sage document or the goods needed to be traded, the store could do it for them. “As for the fees, please rest assured that any price offered by the store is definitely the most reasonable in the entire Samoa!”

“Haha, the Kang Clan really knows how to do business. Let’s not talk about anything else, you guessed everything I wanted to do!” Wu Meiniang smiled and said, “How about this, we’ll talk about the business later. We’re tired from traveling thousands of miles. Let’s arrange a room for us to rest first.”

“No problem, Wu Dongjia is a distinguished guest when he comes. Please!”

Just as Kang Delai finished speaking, a group of soldiers suddenly rushed in from outside the courtyard. Everyone wore heavy armor with dazzling swords and sabers in their hands. On their heads, they wore large hats that looked like chicken crowns as they roared out aggressively to drive people away.

“What’s going on? What are you guys doing?” Kang Delai was shocked and stopped him from shouting.

“Get lost!” The leading military academy pushed him away and shouted, “I, Wang Yu, have an order that all Han merchants and Han people in Samoa City should be arrested!”

When Wu Meiniang, Su Lianqing, and the others heard this, their expressions immediately changed!

“Boss, what happened?”

“I don’t know either!” Wu Meiniang took a deep breath and said, “Samoa was a free-trade city that never refused to allow merchants from any country to enter or leave. Now, she suddenly wanted to capture Han merchants-could it be related to the war?”

As he spoke, the group of soldiers surrounded Wu Meiniang and the others.

“You are Han Chinese!” The leading military academy pointed its saber at Wu Meiniang and the others and shouted.

Just as Su Lianqing was about to make a move, Wu Meiniang pulled her and held her down. She took a step forward and said in fluent Sogdian, “Exactly. We are officials and businessmen from Lanzhou, Qin Xian Trading Firm!”

Wu Meiniang purposely said “Lanzhou” instead of “Chang’an”, moreover, she emphasized the words “Qin Xian Trading Firm” a bit.

“Lanzhou, Qin Xian Trading Firm?” The military academy looked at Wu Meiniang with a ferocious but vigilant gaze. Gradually, a strange and colorful expression appeared in her eyes, and she even swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

“On the orders of my king, all Han merchants and Han people in the city built by Samoa will be arrested.” The military academy’s voice was clearly much softer, and it even moved closer to Wu Meiniang ambiguously. Its pair of eyes stared at Wu Meiniang’s towering chest and lowered its voice, “Sorry, this beautiful beauty. I also … obey orders!”

“Get lost!” With a loud reprimand, the military academy fell to the sky and screamed loudly, scaring the soldiers into shouting loudly. They all raised their swords and spears, and for a moment, they were at loggerheads!

Su Lianqing appeared in front of Wu Meiniang in a flash. Like a ghost, she stretched out her foot and stepped on the chest of the fallen military academy. At some unknown time, a short sword appeared in her hand, tightly pressing against his throat. She shouted, “Tell your men to disperse, or I’ll cut your throat!”

Although the military academy did not understand what Su Lianqing was saying, the bone-piercing chill of the short sword had already served as a translator.

“Su Lianqing, let him go. We are here to seek money, not to fight.” Wu Meiniang said calmly and quietly. Then, she changed to Sogdian and said to the soldiers, “Listen clearly, I am the owner of the Qin Xian Trading Company in Lanzhou. We are not ordinary Han merchants. My purpose here is not just to do business, but also to have other important purposes!”

“What purpose?” The Fallen Military Academy climbed up and took a few steps back. He asked angrily and carefully.

“You don’t deserve to know.” Wu Meiniang proudly squinted at the military academy. “Next, I will only talk to your three ministers and the king. If you are sensible, quickly go back and inform them!”

“In Samojian, there are 800 merchants like you without a thousand!” The academy was thoroughly enraged. He spat out a mouthful of hatred and prepared to draw his saber. He shouted, “Let me inform you, why are you here?!-Brothers, capture him! If you resist, kill him!”

“Just by that!” Wu Meiniang suddenly shouted loudly, “I can summon the hundreds of thousands of troops of Great Tang’s Western Expedition Marshal Su Dingfang! Is that enough?”

‘”Ugh!” The dozens of Scottish soldiers who were about to charge forward immediately froze as if they had been struck by a movement control technique.

The military academy widened its eyes and looked at Wu Meiniang up and down again. “You … Who exactly are you?” It said in a daze.

“Idiot! You’ve provoked the woman you shouldn’t have provoked in this world!” Su Lianqing angrily stepped out and stood in front of the military academy again. She pointed at his nose and shouted, “It doesn’t matter who she is, it’s her man!”

The military academy looked around in confusion, obviously unable to understand Su Lianqing’s words. Shang Yi Shopkeeper Kang Delai hurriedly went forward to translate to him and asked Su Lianqing, “Who is the man in front of this female shopkeeper?”

“Listen up!” Su Lianqing put her hands on her hips and said in a loud voice full of arrogance and pride, “Her man is the Great Tang Protector of Anxi, Qin Mubai Young Marshal Qin!”

“Hula!” The group of military academies scattered as they ran-“Quickly report to my king! The envoys of the Great Tang Empire have arrived at Samojian!”

“Woo! Qin Mubai is here! Su Dingfang is here!”

“Has the Great Tang reached Samojian yet?”

“Lord! Has the calamity of the Kingdom of Kang descended? Please save us!”

…

Su Lianqing was dumbfounded. She turned around and saw that Wu Meiniang was also at a loss. The two of them shook their heads in confusion.

On the contrary, Kang Delai, the owner of the merchant post, had already knelt on the ground and bowed to Wu Meiniang and the others like a pilgrimage. He said, “So it’s the Son of the True God! The Son of the True God has arrived!”

“What, what True God?” Su Lianqing asked, puzzled.

“According to the legends of the True Divinity spread in Gaochang Kingdom, Elder Qin of the Great Tang Dynasty, Duke Qin Shubao, is a true war god! He is also the patron saint of all the merchants on the Silk Road!” Kang Delai clasped his hands together and lowered his jaw. “I never thought that Wu Dong Clan would actually be the daughter-in-law of a True God!” He said sincerely. “You can go to every clan in Samoa and take a look. Every clan has the throne of a True God, just like every clan in the Central Plains that celebrates the Spring Festival.”

Wu Meiniang and Su Lianqing looked at each other and were stunned for a moment.

Kang Delai added, “In addition to the fact that the name of Helong Young Marshal Qin, the son of the True Divinity, has shocked the world in the past two years, especially after he calmed down Tibet, the countries of the Western Regions and large and small have heard his name like thunder.” Now, there are also many shrines in Young Marshal Qin beside the True God-in other words, the position of the Qin father and son in the hearts of the Sogdians is second only to Allah! ”
