Chapter 213: I'll bluff you

Throughout the ages, there has been no shortage of anecdotes of humans and beasts helping each other in the land of China. There are not a few people who are good at this way, and there are thousands of doors in which there is a method of acrobatic dog taming. And Xu Yangchen is also in the left door of the beast taming technique, pay attention to all things have spirits, life and restraint are orderly, non-destined beasts do not ambush, the entrance is the same way, so there is no reason not to receive.

When Xu Yangchen talked about the history of the rivers and lakes, he also mentioned that there was a strange beast in the world, and a strange book called the Beast Sutra was inherited in the portal. This book records the likes and dislikes of beasts and the secret recipes of the herbs related to them. It's just that the inheritance conditions are strict, and you need to choose a talented person with the power of a bear and a tiger to inherit.

The giant in front of him looks like a bear, with a lion nose, a catfish dragon mouth, and fiery eyes, like a giant beast. It is the typical physique of this portal character.

Li Muye looked at it for a long time before he denied it in a broken Mongolian language: "I came here from Ulan Bangtuo to do business. ”

The giant said, "What kind of business?"

"Buy a dog. Li Muye replied calmly: "I opened a dog meat restaurant over there." ”

The giant's thick eyebrows tightened, he looked at Li Muye with disgusted eyes, and said indignantly: "The Mongolians who eat dogs will be punished by the Immortal Heaven, are you Han?"

In the grasslands, the act of killing dogs, eating dog meat, skinning dogs, and sleeping on dog skin mattresses is regarded as an ungrateful and unforgivable sin by the steppe people. The men of the steppe are greedy for alcohol, and there are often cases of horseback riders getting drunk and falling off their horses and freezing to death in the snow. Some of them did not die because they had dogs. It was the dog that ran home, holding the hostess's leather robe, and called for the man to come home from the deep snow. In the Erlun grassland, every family has a life-saving dog, and there are men and women who have been saved by dogs.

Li Muye's friend Bai Peng is a Mongolian, and the Qi Tian brothers are also Mongolian, they have been friends for many years, and under the principle of respecting each other's customs, they know their national customs very well, and the reason why they deliberately say this is actually just to divert each other's attention.

Li Muye saw that this giant was a dog, and one intestine could not hold two taels of ghee. Deliberately provoked him, so I didn't look at him.

Seeing that Li Muye was disdainful of his questioning, the giant immediately became annoyed, pointed at Li Muye and said: "You must be Han, you Han people have no nomadic herding, and there are not many hunters, and you have eaten all the things you can eat, so you don't know the benefits of dogs." ”

"What's wrong with me being a Han?" Li Muye followed his words and talked nonsense to him, and after a little response, he asked rhetorically: "What's so good about dogs?"

The giant was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You Han people have a large population, they are not deserted, and they don't need dogs to accompany people to relieve their boredom, how can you know how good dogs are?"

Li Muye said: "Aren't you lonely when there are more people?" The words changed and said: "But what you said also has a little truth, sometimes people are indeed not as reliable as dogs." ”

The giant has a straightforward heart, and has been led to the ditch, so he thought it was true, and nodded: "That's it." He also said: "You Han people, not only eat dogs but also hate dogs, arrange a lot of bad things about dogs, I have learned skills in China for a few years, and I have heard more than a dozen kinds of words just scolding dogs: wolf heart and dog lungs, pigs and dogs are not as good, dog fart does not understand, dogs fight people, dogs jump over the wall in a hurry, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven, dogs look at people low, dogs legs, beat dogs in the water, dogs sit in sedan chairs and do not know how to lift ......"

"Have a glass of wine and speak slowly. Li Muye poured him a bowl of wine, handed it to his eyes and said.

The giant was not polite, took the wine bowl in his hand, drank it in one go, and said, "My name is Hulei Leopard, what is your name?"

"Coincidentally, my surname is also Hu. Li Muye said nonsense: "My name is Hu Mengyi, Meng is the Meng of Mencius, and Qi is the Qi of the Lion, which means lion." ”

"Humengyi?" the giant scratched his head, and said, "It sounds a little strange. He also said: "My call evolved from the Huledu clan, how did you, the Han people, come from?"

Li Mu said ambitiously, from his big fool. On the lips, he changed the text to Chinese and said: "My Hu originates from a legend, from the ancient times of the sage Hu Zixian, belonging to the name of the ancestors, recorded in the historical books of the immortals: there are immortals Hu Zixian." Among his descendants and disciples, there are those who take the name of the ancestor as their surname, call Zi and Zixian, and then Hu Zi Provincial Wen Jian changed to a single surname Hu.

Half of this is from reading, and the other half is nonsense. The whole recipe can be summed up in just one word: drag! In a thousand doors, this trick is often used. When it is necessary to avoid a sensitive topic, deliberately pull the topic away, the farther away the better. Procrastinate and extinguish the other person's interest in the previous topic. Even in an unfavorable situation, it was delayed until the arrival of reinforcements from this side.

Hulei Leopard didn't know anything about this, at this time he was chatting, and said excitedly: "I was born in Qiaobalshan, my surname is Hu, and your surname is Hu, although we are not of the same race, but we have the same surname, which is really too coincidental." ”

Li Muye then took the opportunity to beckon him to eat mutton, and then ordered another pot of mutton, ordered two large pots of wine, and ordered two pots of mutton and two pots of wine for the two people.

Mengxin's nature is simple and easy to make friends, and a bowl of wine is a friend. Hulei Leopard was very happy, and immediately toasted to express his gratitude, and praised Li Muye for being a friend enough. The two of them pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and the drink was lively. Li Muye asked casually, "Brother Hu, what are you doing?"

Hulei Leopard said: "I am an orphan, originally for the rich to herd horses and grass to live, a few years ago I met a Han man, said that I was suitable for him as an apprentice, so he took me to China to live in the Yin Mountains for a few years, and then my master was old, so he wrote a letter to introduce me to Uncle Sen, to help him raise animals or something." As he spoke, he pointed to the two strange beasts and said, "That's the Yinshan Snow Leopard, and the other one is the Mane Hound, all of which I raised." ”

"It's scary to watch. Li Muye said.

"This is nothing, Uncle Sen has encircled a stocking base in the mountains to the west, specializing in cultivating all kinds of wild beasts for the nobles to hunt, there are thousands of catties of wild boars and brown bears, as well as tigers and lions. Hulei Leopard said while eating: "Anyway, there are all the water flying in the sky and swimming on the ground." ”

"Raising so many animals, how much money do you have to feed that year?" Li Muye said: "Your Uncle Sen must be a big boss." ”

Hulei Leopard said: "That's for sure, Uncle Sen is a noble man in Mongolia, in charge of the land that can't run away from a few tired horses, he lives in a house where three airships are hoisted, I went there once, and the things used in it are all made of gold, and there are beautiful women from all over the world in that house, all skin tones, one is more beautiful than the other, his thoroughbred horse farm has the best thoroughbreds, and the forage he eats is airlifted from Australia." ”

"Brother Hu, you're blowing a little bit boundless, aren't you?" Li Muye was almost finished, teasing him slowly and unhurriedly.

"We Mongolian men don't like to brag like you Han people, and I'm telling the truth. Hulei Leopard said: "Uncle Sen's business has been done all over the world, those Middle Eastern bigwigs will come to Uncle Sen to do business in the spring every year, and those European and American tycoons like to come to Uncle Sen's territory to hunt, and I have served several times." ”

What he said was much more detailed than the information provided by Timov, and although it inevitably tinged with a bit of personal speculation, it was more intuitive and three-dimensional in comparison.

This is a master who didn't open the door after drinking wine, Li Muye deliberately took his words, and said: "Then according to what you said, you should be very busy, why did you come all the way to this small place where birds don't?"

Hulei Leopard said: "Uncle Sen sent a job, ordered me to take the beast corps to cooperate with Uncle Sen's guards to catch a Han man." ”

Li Muye said: "No wonder you asked me as soon as you entered the door if I came from the west, it seems that you haven't caught this person yet? What bad thing did he do, this Uncle Sen wants to catch him? Why don't you ask the government mounted police for help?"

Hulei Leopard smiled and said: "The mounted police in this area within a radius of 200 kilometers are all raised by Uncle Sen, let them do whatever they want, they really need to use it for a long time, but that Han man is not simple, we didn't catch the net we laid out last night, and those ordinary mounted police can't help at all." ”

The radius of 200 kilometers is more than 120,000 square kilometers, which is larger than the area of some provinces in the interior. It sounds a bit exaggerated, but it is not beyond imagination for Li Muye. The Mongolian Plateau is vast and sparsely populated, with an area of about 1.6 million square kilometers, equivalent to less than 3 million people living on the land of more than 40 Taiwan provinces.

The country is rich in mineral resources, animal husbandry is developed, the vast majority of resources are controlled by a small number of people, the gap between the rich and the poor is huge, and the social class is very polarized. There are both destitute families like Ulanzhu and business tycoons like Huo Sen, who occupy many social resources.

Now that he is on the same page as the Huo family, as an opponent, the more he knows, the better.

Li Muye glanced at the time, there was less than an hour before the agreed time with Xiao Fen, and it was rare to meet this muddy and stuffy rectal giant, so he wanted to take advantage of this time to get more inside information from his mouth. So he ordered another pot of mutton and called for four large pots of wine.

"Brother Hu, my trip is really not in vain, meeting you is an eye-opener, not to mention anything else, just those two animals are enough for me to increase my knowledge. Li Muye continued while toasting: "I have been doing business here for a few years, and I didn't know that there were such great people as Uncle Sen in the Mongolian steppe, I heard you say this, I feel that this Uncle Sen is amazing, his business is so big, it must take a lot of people, how much does it cost people to eat horses and feed them for a day, this is big business." ”

Hulei Leopard picked up the bowl and drank it all, poured another bowl himself, and said: "You Han people's brains are spirits, I will tell you a few words casually, and you will immediately think of the way to do business." ”

Li Muye said: "No way, it's not easy to mix the job now." ”

Hulei Leopard said: "You are opening a restaurant, Uncle Sen's place is called Sleepless City, which has its own canteen, as well as its own fruit and vegetable planting base, chickens, ducks and fish are also farmed, and there is no problem in supplying tens of thousands of people, so the food needs to be purchased from Russia." ”

This person is full of thaumaturgy, and he is loyal and brave, and it seems that he is deeply relied on by Huo Sen, but he is not a high emotional intelligence, and he does not use this trust to seek some fame and fortune for himself. Li Muye pondered while listening, and when he heard this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, as if he had grasped something, and hurriedly asked: "Why don't you buy grain from Russia? Why don't you buy it from China? Isn't it much cheaper?"

"A friend of Uncle Mori has a relationship with Lao Maozi and can buy cheap and good grain, so we all import grain from the north. ”

"The grain in Russia has been very tight in recent years, and the export controls are very strict. Li Muye said slowly, and suddenly asked casually, "Do you know what Uncle Sen's friend is called?"
