Chapter 171

The queen was so excited about playing cards today that she seemed to have a good temper. As soon as she opened her mouth, she rewarded each of her retainers and servants with a golden vase (weight one pound).

In addition to being rewarded with a unique "golden vase" in Goryeo, Li Luo was also given an additional Dzi bead bracelet.

The female official who was attending the service immediately recorded the types, quantity, and personnel of the reward.

When you return to Goryeo, all the recipients in the records can go to the Queen's exclusive jade warehouse and receive the reward according to the records.

Although Li Luo can't get the golden vase now, he has obtained the "trade token" he won and the Dzi bead bracelet he gave him for extra rewards.

The female official recorded the record on the spot: "On September 15, 17th year of Zhiyuan, a Li Luoxing Merchant Token was awarded Renzhou for a period of one year. It should be paid back on this day next year."

After the female official recorded the record, she asked Li Luo to check it out and reminded him to take the initiative to pay it back a year later.

When Li Luo saw that the token was the size of a jade pendant, it was made of green jade. The front was engraved with Tibetan Mongolian text (Basi Eight Characters): Princess Anping of the Great Yuan Dynasty, the mother of Goryeo.

The opposite is engraved in Tibetan Mongolian text: special license is given to conduct business activities at a cheap price.

This privileged business token is actually a means by which the queen converts power into wealth. She rewards business privileges to her confidants, allowing her confidants to make money without any taboos and make huge profits.

Then, I would like to respect her again. I have to say that this method is very clever.

With this "business privilege", even if Li Luo openly "sells" a large number of refugees going to sea in the Central Plains, it will be unimpeded.

The Yuan Dynasty was a semi-slave and semi-feudal dynasty dominated by Mongolian slave owners and nobles, and supplemented by bureaucrats and landlords of other ethnic groups.

The barbaric and rough rule model allows the power of the great nobles to override the rules. Even the will of the great nobles is often the rules or replace the rules.

This is the queen's "trade token".

This thing is very useful to Li Luo and is used as a "chicken feather" to be used as a commanding arrow.

Isn’t the deliberate "currying" the queen just to use her power? This token is the harvest. But it is not enough.

As for the string of Dzi bead bracelets, although the queen took them off from her hands and gave them to him, Li Luo didn't care.

The team's itinerary was carefully arranged. It was almost dusk and it was just around the corner to reach the first stop along the way: Jinchuan City.

The county magistrate of Jinchuan County had long led his subordinates to welcome the king's deportation outside the city.

The team entered Jinchuan City, and the Goryeo Wang and his wife naturally moved into the palace. Officials above the third rank moved into the county magistrate's mansion, while Li Luo and others moved into the guest hall.

Today is September 15th, the full moon night. Li Luo and Cui Xiuning enjoy the moon together rarely.

"I just discovered today that the moon in ancient times was really beautiful. No wonder so many poets could look at the moon and write poems." Cui Xiuning looked at the night sky with an indescribable blur.

Li Luo knew that she remembered her family again. He held her hand and half a joke interruption: "It's more than the moon. This water, air, food, and the whole world is natural, and it's good."

Cui Xiuning squinted her eyes and looked at Li Luo, "It's just that people are not good."

Li Luo suddenly pulled her hard and pulled her into her arms. He hugged her firmly, pressing her forehead against her, "Why are you not good at? You haven't fulfilled your husband's obligations?"

"I'm spitting on you, what are you talking nonsense? Ouch... I'll go! There are horns on your head!" Cui Xiuning pressed her head against her and was not willing to be outdone.

"I'm so mad...you're awesome!"

"You are so awesome...hey...where are you touching your paws?"

"Not this can do it?"

"No! I can sue you for molestation, add another attacker..."

"Okay, okay, I'm Liu Xiahui now. Let's sit in my arms and stay away from walking. Come on, I put my hand in the open and talk about the important things now."

"Let me go and talk about the serious matters."

"If you hug you, you can't say it? For the sake of the revolution, you just sacrifice it."

"Speak serious!"

"All right."

While discussing a big deal, the two of them showed their food to the moon, half serious and half flirting. They didn't go back to their room to rest until late at night.

…………

Early the next morning, the delegation set out again and continued north along the official road.

On that day, Li Luo and several princess retainers played Paijiu for most of the day.

Although Li Luo knows how to bet, he is actually not good at gambling and does not like it. Therefore, when the queen who is addicted to gambling becomes proficient in Paijiu, his "teacher"'s advantage will gradually be lost.

By the afternoon, Li Luo had already lost eighteen gems. His face turned a little green after losing.

The only gain was that she became familiar with the queen and the people around her, and she was considered to be in the "Queen's Circle".

"Princess, I am like a poor shepherd who has lost all the lambs. There is no good stuff on my body to bet on it." Li Luo said to the queen with a wry smile.

I'm... Think I'm Kaizi?

He has many gems, but he doesn’t carry many gems this time. He still needs to use them in the Central Plains. How can he lose them in vain?

The queen laughed and Kaisen died. Because she couldn't win the gold and gems today, and all the rewards from yesterday were regained.

Of course, she has too much wealth to spend, but who would think she has too much money?

"If you don't have gems, don't play. Get out of here quickly and change Zhang Shunlong to come up...hehehe!" the queen said with a smile.

Li Luo thought to himself, Princess, you smile like a little hen!

Li Luo was "driven" out of the car and said to Zhang Shunlong: "Zhang Zhige, the princess asked you to play for me!"

Zhang Shunlong laughed softly and said, "Brother Li, just lose the habit."

According to Cui Xiuning's information, this semen is ignorant and relies entirely on his ability to tell stories to win the favor of the princess and becomes a third-rank senior.

Judging from his appearance, he should be a West Asian.

When Zhang Shunlong entered the queen's car, Li Luo breathed a sigh of relief. ww

His mother's, you can't bet with them anymore, otherwise you will lose all the things you brought before you even arrived in Dadu.

Li Luo took the opportunity to return to Cui Xiuning's carriage. As soon as his expression fell into Cui Xiuning's eyes, Cui Xiuning knew that he had lost a lot.

"How much did you lose?"

"Eighteen sapphires." Li Luo was a little embarrassed.

What? Cui Xiuning's face suddenly turned cloudy due to property losses.

These sapphires were carefully selected, and each egg is the smallest of the best quality. At the current price, these eighteen sapphires were worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, but Li Luo lost in one afternoon.

Cui Xiuning felt sorry for her.

No woman knows that a man will be happy if he loses money.

"So, you lost half of our best sapphire." Cui Xiuning said dryly.

Li Luo smiled and said, "Don't forget, I won a token yesterday, a pasture of three hundred horses, and a manor of three thousand acres."

When Cui Xiuning heard this, her face looked good.

"The gambling has ended here. I guess your queen won't keep playing Paijiu. She needs to change her strategy." Cui Xiuning said.

Li Luo nodded, "What strategy do you think is the best to change now?"

Cui Xiuning thought for a while, "She is very interested in Tibetan history. Don't you understand this too? Just be her teacher of Tibetan history for a few days."

Li Luo smiled, "Okay, if we take it together again, our plan will be halfway."

Cui Xiuning hugged her arms, and was wearing a long Korean dress, but her posture looked like a modern white-collar worker. "Don't hurry, take it slowly. This woman lacks character and needs to be repeatedly consolidated to guide her."
