Chapter Thirty-Four: Old Wine Changing Cities

Teng Yan's words made the lords' faces much better. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Does everyone know that Mel is Gray? Byrons's son had seen the princess of the Kingdom of Egus, who had become his fiancΓ©e, at the banquet, so there was a good chance that Teng Yan's words were true. If the Tengzi generation can pull the Elibi Alliance and connect with multiple Dugu kingdoms to deal with Xiaohu, the situation will be reversed in an instant. At that time, even if Xiaohu Liantong manages to start an all-out war between races, it will be difficult for the Tairong people to win in the case of two against one.

But in this way, the Tengzi family will be regarded as national traitors, and even if they seize the position of the head of the Xiaohu family, they will also be hostile to the Tairong nobles. So for now, the people of the Tengzi generation will only use Maier as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Xiaohu Lake, and keep Teng Yan as much as possible, and they will no longer have the luxury of other things.

"It's pathetic."

Just when the lords were in a good mood, Teng Yuan opened his mouth again.

"Maier, if I hadn't decided early on not to marry for life, I wouldn't have let you marry the daughter of the Tengyan family - don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to belittle them, those three children are all good children. It's a pity that they have a selfish and irresponsible father, so you have to face such a father-in-law, which is really pitiful. ”

The lords saw Teng Yuan's expression becoming very embarrassed when they saw Teng Yuan exposing Teng Yan's shortcomings in front of so many people. Teng Yan's face was red and white for a while, and he was so angry that he wanted to kill. But the guards are all outside, and Teng Yan's own strength is very weak, even against Teng Yuan, who is bare-handed, will be killed in seconds, and even if Teng Yuan doesn't kill him at that time, he will be very embarrassed. So he could only endure this breath and returned to his seat angrily.

After Teng Yan sat down, Teng Yuan changed the topic.

"Did Yun Xin tell you about me?"

"Mother often mentions Uncle Tengyuan, saying that you are a tough guy who is brave, resourceful and responsible."

"Haha! I love that! ”

Teng Yuan happily stroked the beard on his chin, accidentally pulled off a few of them, and threw them away with a disgusted face.

"I don't know if Yun Xin has ever told you about 'Tong Zi Gong'."

"Tong Zigong?"

"Yes, it's the kind of childlike skill that must maintain the body of a child."

Tengyuan grinned and smiled.

"It's the kind that can't touch women."

"Uh......"

Talking about this topic in public was a little embarrassing for the more conservative-minded Mel. Teng Yuan didn't care, and explained his childlike skills to Maier in a serious way.

"Some people say that Tong Zigong is superstition, but it is not. This child's skill is not as simple as not touching women, it is practicing a state of mind, a state of mind that can devote oneself to martial arts and leave no room for other things. Because only in this way can people who practice martial arts devote all their energy to martial arts, become stronger and stronger, and constantly break through their own limits. Although I have never touched a woman in my life, and I have never thought about that kind of thing, this worldly thing still gives me a lot of drag. ”

Today's Tengyuan is still the first fierce general of the Xiaohu family, and no one can match him in terms of personal combat power. But from his words, Maier could feel his love for martial arts, as well as his dissatisfaction with his own strength.

Gray once told Maier that Tengyuan would not be inferior even if he played against ten at the same time. You must know that Gray has an excellent talent for Leiting magic, he works hard, and he uses efficient heretical Leiting magic, which is a relatively powerful existence among Leiting magicians. And Tengyuan can deal with ten Leiting mages like Gray at the same time, and his strength is far beyond Myer's cognition.

But he is such a strong man, but he is still dissatisfied with his strength. He wants to constantly break through his limits, be strong and strong, and fight until the last moment of his life. This spirit gave Maier a great encouragement and touched him very much.

"Speaking of which, I looked like I was going to buy wine with you just now?"

Teng Yuan suddenly changed the subject again, and Mel almost couldn't keep up with his train of thought.

"That's true. I don't know how many jars of century-old wine Uncle Tengyuan wants? ”

"How much stock do you have?"

"About five hundred altars."

"How's that approximately? Don't have a quasi-number? ”

"Uh...... If I'm not mistaken, there should be 485 jars of old wine left in the storeroom. ”

"Oh? Not less. ”

Teng Yuan stroked his beard and nodded thoughtfully.

"If I take all this wine from you, how much are you going to charge me?"

"Uh...... This ......"

The hundred-year-old wine in the warehouse has not yet been sold, and Maier drinks but doesn't know much about wine, so he can't set a suitable price. He knew that Tengyuan was a person who knew wine, and the price of a high or low price might make him angry, so he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Don't you have a price yet?"

Teng Yuan saw through Maier's thoughts at a glance, and waved his hand disapprovingly.

"It doesn't matter, you can say as much as you want, even if you want a billion, I will pay it."

A billion guan!?

Tengyuan's words shocked everyone, and the lords were not calm. Everyone knows Tengyuan's temper very well, he will say one if he has one, say two if he has two, and if he has 4 Wentai Rong money in his pocket, he will never say that he has 5 Wentai Rong money in his pocket, and he will never buy things with 5 Wentai Rong money. Although Chunshan City is prosperous, the net income it brings to Tengyuan every year will not exceed 100,000 yuan. This is because Tengyuan has an elite army in his hands, and the size of this force is about 30,000 people, and Tengyuan has to burn a lot of money every year.

Moreover, Teng Yuan will spend a lot of money on martial arts every year, so that he can save even less money. Even if Teng Yuan saved all his net income, his assets would not exceed 10 million Guan Tai Rong money, so it was impossible for him to take out 1 billion Guan Tai Rong money to buy wine.

Some clever lords quickly realized what Teng Yuan wanted to do, and their faces immediately changed.

Just like Tengyuan just said, in order to improve his strength, he was unmarried all his life, which means that Tengyuan has no descendants. In other words, in the absence of an heir, Springhill Castle became borderlands after his death. Although there are many people in the Tengzi family who have the right to inherit, the head of the family also has the right to take the city into his pocket. As a result, the two sides will inevitably fight for the battle for Chunshan Castle, and war is almost inevitable.

However, if Tengyuan had appointed an heir, or had transferred Chunshan Castle to someone else during his lifetime, then the problem would not have existed. Now Tengyuan will spend a billion guan tairong money to buy maier's wine, although the wine in maier's hand is a hundred years old, but their actual value is at best hundreds of thousands of tairong money, far from the number of one billion guan. Therefore, Tengyuan's purpose is obviously not to buy wine, but to take the opportunity to transfer Chunshan City to Maier.

Although Maier is Teng Yuan's nephew and Teng Yan's quasi-son-in-law, his surname is Byron and he is a foreigner. However, the lords could only watch Tengyuan and Maier talk about this business, because Chunshan City belonged to Tengyuan, and he could give the city to whoever he wanted, which was also the legal principle of the Tairong nobles.

The lords now really want to pull out the guy who originally formulated the law to whip the corpse to vent their anger, these people are also quite innocent, they were born in the past and lived in the past, how could they think that in the future, there would be a descendant who would take the initiative to transfer the land to outsiders? Tengyuan didn't dare to say that there was no one to come, but it was certain that there was no one before.

Tengyuan did not do this on a whim, nor did it do it without reason. He knew the importance of Chunshan Castle, and once he died, the person he designated as the heir was likely to be attacked by other people who had the right to inherit, and a civil war would break out in the Tengzi lineage, and the act of transfer would lead to the same consequences. Unless he transferred his territory to a lord who was strong enough, Teng Yan was an ideal choice. How could Teng Yan be too bad in nature, Teng Yuan didn't want to hand over Chunshan City to him.

There is also the fact that Tengyuan has been operating in Chunshan City for a long time, and his prestige in the territory is extremely high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to control the scene. Although Maier is a foreigner, his father is kind to the Xiaohu family, and Tengyuan has a good personal relationship with Gray, so he will get the support of Tengyuan's subordinates after getting Chunshan City, so that he can calm the scene.

The most important thing is that Mel is now the rightful lord, with the support of the Ilibi League and the Kingdom of Egus, and even Xiaohu Connection does not dare to declare war on Mair easily. In this way, Chunshan City can be secured, and a civil war will not break out in the Tengzi generation, so Tengyuan will choose him.

In fact, after learning the news that Maier had come to Liangyue City, Tengyuan had the idea of calling Maier to Chunshan City and cultivating him as the heir to the territory, but before he could put it into action, Maier became the legitimate lord. Gray knew Tengyuan very well, so he didn't let Maier go to Springhill City. He wanted to let Maier have a little more experience among the people, because this experience was very valuable to the superiors.

In fact, Teng Yuan could directly stuff the territory to Maier, but he didn't do it, and he had to make a farce of "old wine for the city". It wasn't for nothing that he did thisβ€”he really wanted the hundred-year-old wine in Meier's hands.

Maier didn't understand what Teng Yuan meant, thinking that he really wanted to buy wine, so he calculated in his seat for a long time to come up with the most suitable number. His simplicity made Tengyuan like it very much, and he felt more and more that his decision was correct. So Teng Yuan interrupted his train of thought and said.

"A billion! That's it! ”

"Huh?"

Meier's eyes widened in astonishment, and before he could react next, Teng Yuan said with a sloppy face.

"But I don't have that much cash, can I use something else as collateral?"

"Huh?"

Maier couldn't keep up with Tengyuan's train of thought, and his expression was a little funny, but the people present couldn't laugh at all.

"What do you think of Springhill Castle?"

"Huh?!"

Hearing this, Maier finally understood what Tengyuan meant. Because of this, he made a louder voice than just now, and then the whole person was stunned.

Liquor for a city?! I'm supposed to be dreaming, right?

"I'm not in a hurry to drink those wines, so I'll leave them with you first. You can't accept this Chunshan City right away, so you will also leave it with me first. But I'm not at ease with this kind of unfounded business - so be it! I'll let you be the heir to the territory first, and when your wine is delivered, I'll officially transfer Chunshan City to you, how about it?" ”

Mel nodded unconsciously, and by the time he came to his senses, Teng Yuan was already laughing heartily in his seat.

"Hahaha! Joyfully! ”

Joyfully?

Maier felt the jealous gaze of the lords with hatred, and then realized that he seemed to have unconsciously completed this strange transaction of the so-called "old wine for city", and he couldn't help but smile and cry.
