The Qiangba leader came close to the ear of City Lord Fan Dun and whispered.
"City Lord, the reason why Shopkeeper Mo offers such a generous gift is because he is asking for it from the City Lord. Shopkeeper Mo has taken a fancy to the daughter of a Han slave outside the city, City Lord."
"I want to take her as my concubine and take her back to Tang Dynasty..."
Hearing what the Jamba-head said, Fan Dun couldn't help but laugh out loud while stroking his thick beard.
"This little thing doesn't matter. I promise you directly that you can take away the woman you like."
"The city lord's tolerance and kindness really make Mo Mou ashamed, but the girl Mo Mou likes is unwilling to leave her parents and brothers..."
"So, Mo boldly asked the city lord to reward that woman and her family to Mo."
The Qiangba leader came close to Fan Dun's ear and whispered, "The Han slave family has fifteen families, almost a hundred people."
Hearing this, Fan Dun couldn't help but hesitate. After all, although Lin Yi had begun to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, many leaders in the country strongly opposed it.
There were even many people who were dissatisfied with Lin Yi's actions and launched a rebellion, although they were suppressed in time.
However, there are still many people in Linyi Middle School who are very disgusted with dealing with Tang people.
Even Brother Wang has to be wary of those conservative forces. If it's just three or five families, that's it.
But if there are more than ten households, it will not only reduce the number of Han slaves to work on their fertile land.
What's more, if this matter spreads, I am afraid that my actions will be dissatisfied by the leaders in the country.
Seeing the hesitation on the face of the city lord, Shopkeeper Mo gritted his teeth and spoke to the city lord.
"City Lord Fan, you are the cousin of Lord Linyi, and this North City is your fiefdom with countless fertile fields.
There are only about ten households of Han slaves, Mo thinks, they should not embarrass the city lord."
Fan Dun glanced at Shopkeeper Mo, and his eyes fell on those brightly colored glass cups. Once these things were in his hands, he would definitely not return them.
But the problem is that Fan Dun was embarrassed to deny it directly and shook his head in embarrassment.
"No, there are too many...Those Han slaves are very good at growing food. It's not okay to lose so much all of a sudden."

"How about that, can Shopkeeper Mo do it?"
Wu Tunhu heard the noise coming from over there and couldn't help but crane his neck to look at it and murmured softly.
Li De was also very worried about the award, but he still had some confidence in his heart.
"Shopkeeper Mo is very talkative and has had many dealings with Lin Yiguo, so there shouldn't be any big problems."
"Anyway, our worst-case scenario is that we can only take away the girl along with her parents and brothers..."
Time passed bit by bit, until Li and Wu, both anxious and worried, finally saw Mr. Qiangba and Shopkeeper Mo walking this way.
Shopkeeper Mo first winked at the two of them, chatted a few more words with the strong-headed man, and stuffed some good treasures into his arms.
Only then did he lead Li Dejiang and Wu Tunhu out of the city lord's mansion.
"What about Shopkeeper Mo? Can the city lord agree?"
Shopkeeper Mo wiped the smelly sweat from his forehead and told the final result of his bargaining with City Lord Fan Dun.
"I agreed, but I only agreed to half of it, that is, seven families of close relatives can leave with us, but not one more family."
After hearing this, Li Dejiang couldn't help but be overjoyed and saluted Shopkeeper Mo.
"Qihu, that's not bad. Thank you, shopkeeper, for the hard work."
"If anything, it's all thanks to you, Mr. Li. If the treasures you brought out weren't so tempting, the city lord wouldn't have been able to agree so happily."
Shopkeeper Mo quickly returned the salute to Li Dejiang and said with a wry smile.
"Shopkeeper Mo, you have really made a great contribution this time. Don't worry, Li will definitely not forget Shopkeeper Mo's help."
"If it weren't for Shopkeeper Mo who took the initiative to come up with the idea, you would even take the initiative to ask Ying to come up with such a clever plan.
It is difficult for us to have sufficient reasons to take away these Han slaves who specialize in cultivating Linyi rice."
Shopkeeper Mo smiled sheepishly. In fact, he had his own plans to marry that girl.
The first is, of course, that the girl is indeed quite pretty.
The second is that he took the girl as his concubine, so that he could have sufficient reason to take the Han slaves away.
Of course, all this was not just to show favor to Li Dejiao, the second son of Duke Wei.
Seeing that Li Dejia, the second son of Wei Guogong, is on the line, he will definitely be able to bring huge benefits to himself.
Not to mention asking yourself to marry a beautiful girl, even if you ask yourself to marry an old woman, you can grit your teeth and be happy with it.

However, what to do on the return trip has now become the most troublesome problem for the Tang Dynasty Rangers.
After all, those unfriendly officials from the cities of Linyi State made things difficult for them all the way south.
Thanks to shopkeeper Demo, a seasoned veteran who has been through this trade route many times, for stuffing silk and making connections.
Only then can we safely come to the Beicheng area where there are various kinds of three-cropping rice.
It is also because these knights of the Tang Dynasty have always kept in mind their mission of being great knights and serving the country and the people.
Only then did he try hard to control his violent temper and not burst out.
Otherwise, I am afraid that if I enter the border of Linyi State again, I will have a conflict with the border officials of Linyi State.
"Going back all the way, we have to take care of our families. There are seven households, and there must be thirty or forty people, old, weak, women and children."
"And they are all Han people. What if we encounter those ignorant officials or generals of Linyi State along the way?
We are afraid it will be difficult to take them away from Linyi."
The rangers thought about it, but they couldn't find a perfect solution.
When I came here, there were just a lot of rough guys, and some local officials didn't even want to show off shopkeeper Mo's face.
In places like that, they always solve the problem by taking detours over mountains and ridges, but now, there are thirty or forty people in those seven households, including many women and children.
It is definitely unrealistic to ask them to go through the exhausting mountains and ridges.
"How about Brother Li, you and Brother Tunhu and Brother Tunjiao accompany the Han people and walk behind, while our brothers walk in front..."
"No, Brother Lu San, your method will not work if it is used in the desolate land of our Tang Dynasty. After all, those bandits and bandits will be punished."
"But this is the territory of Linyi Kingdom. If the news is leaked, even if it is not us, just because of our status as Tang people..."
Listening to the discussions among the brothers, Li Dejiao couldn't help but feel worried.
I saw these murderous and rough men thinking hard about ingenious plans, and couldn't even come up with a good idea for a long time.
