The news was spreading everywhere in Chang 'an City.
In the end, it was said that Tubo was going to attack Chang 'an City!
Just as the whole Chang 'an City was engulfed in this rumor, a group of government soldiers arrived in a hurry and put up notices all over Chang' an City.
The notice indicated that this was purely a rumor, and the matter slowly died down.
However, the people who had just lived a good life were still in a state of panic.
They were still whispering in twos and threes.
There were even people who were crazily fighting for food and daily necessities.
Even the place set up by the officials to sell official salt had countless more people than usual.
Zhang Feng had a headache as he bought about five kilograms of salt. He was wondering if he should buy more when he saw Old Sun and Lao Li coming out of Yong 'an Lane in a hurry.
The two of them seemed to be very serious, and they were discussing something along the way. Lao Li's face was so dark that it was about to drip water.
Zhang Feng scratched his head, feeling a little confused.
But he still waved his hand. "Hey! Lao Li! Over here! "
Li Shimin, who was busy rushing, was stunned when he heard that. But the next moment, when he saw Zhang Feng, his dark face softened a little.
He went forward and clasped his fist.
Zhang Feng looked at the two of them suspiciously.
"Are you … Are you being chased by thieves or something? Why do you look like that? "
"Sigh!"
Li Shimin sighed deeply.
"Isn't that so?"
"We were thinking about whether we should tinker with a thousand more water wheels and sell them to the diplomatic mission. But then we heard that Tubo is going to attack! What should we do? "
"Oh, right!"
Li Shimin pulled Zhang Feng to the corner and asked, "Didn't you say yesterday that this would work? This … Look at this Chang 'an City … I might even lose my life here! "
Zhang Feng understood.
He laughed and said, "So it's about this! Go, go, go! Let's go to my shop. I just happened to come out today to buy some salt. Let's go back to the shop and I'll tell you everything in detail! "
When Li Shimin heard that, he signaled Zhangsun Wuji with his eyes.
Then, she hooked her arms around Zhang Feng's neck and complained as they walked.
On the other hand, Zhangsun Wuji also subconsciously ordered the Jinwu Guards hidden among the commoners to follow them in secret.
At this moment, the Golden Guards with killing intent in their eyes put away their Mo Swords.
Today, they were discussing where the lowest price should be.
However, he received a message from the Chamberlain of Dependencies.
Last night, two members of the Tubo diplomatic mission secretly left Chang 'an City. Then, early this morning, the news spread throughout Chang' an City!
Li Shimin was originally very happy this morning. However, when the civil officials in the imperial court asked this question, Li Shimin was so angry that his face turned green.
He was prepared to come out and listen to it personally before going to the Chamberlain of Dependencies.
But on the way, he met Zhang Feng who came out to buy salt.
Zhang Feng's tavern was not very far from here. It was just two turns away.
As soon as he entered.
Zhang Feng took out a bag of fried food wrapped in lotus leaves from the counter, and then opened a jar of wine. He said slowly, "Old Li, you're the best! About this! Don't be anxious! I know you want to make money, but what about this? You have to take it slow. Don't be alarmed by a little rumor! "
"Eh? I'm … "
Li Shimin was stunned and wanted to say something.
Zhang Feng pressed his hand and said, "About this? I also heard that this is all a rumor! We can spread it. Do you think the Tubo people are fools? "
"Then what do you plan to do? Could it be that this matter was really a misunderstanding? If that's the case, does it mean that we still have a chance? "
Li Shimin was so worried about this that he pulled out a bunch of hair.
If the rumor was true, then he had really screwed up!
If he had known about this price, he would have just said a few words yesterday and the matter would have been settled. But now …
He was scared!
Zhang Feng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, don't worry. Listen to my analysis!"
"Think about this! Yesterday, I heard that Lord Zhangsun and Lord Wei Zheng were going to cheat Tubo of 50 million taels of gold! I think this matter is too small! "
Huh?
Li Shimin was dumbfounded.
What kind of situation was this?
You still want too little?
Zhangsun Wuji's mouth also twitched. This was too little? Then what was the proper amount?
Zhang Feng said calmly, "If Tubo really rejected this matter, then it wouldn't be spreading rumors and pressuring the Emperor!"
Li Shimin was stunned.
"Why?"
Zhang Feng chuckled. "Let me ask you. If you want to buy something, and the price is too high to the point that you can't accept it, will you do it?"
"Then what's the point of doing it! Isn't this obviously bullying! If I … "
"Cough cough!"
Li Shimin slammed the table and blurted out. But just as he said the word 'I', Zhangsun Wuji coughed violently. Li Shimin then reacted and couldn't help but break out in cold sweat.
"If that's the case, then what's the point of doing it! I'll just turn around and leave! "
"That's right!"
Zhang Feng clapped his hands and said, "If you can think of this, why can't you think of this?"
