Nanzhang standard line.

Seeing more and more gentry and businessmen returning empty-handed, Guo Biao's urine was about to come out.

Because he had already sent people twice, but everything was returned intact, how could he not be in a hurry?

"Guo Zhi, have you seen that Xiao Hua Wang this time?"

"I met the master, and the other party was very polite, and gave me a cup of tea, just said that the master would go in person, it doesn't matter if there is a gift or not." The big apprentice on the side replied honestly.

"Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! It seems that Xiao Hua Wang is not as arrogant and reckless as he seems! Guo Biao touched his beard with a solemn expression.

At this time, Guo Qing rushed in from outside the door and said with an indignant face: "Dad, are you old and confused?" actually sent someone to give a gift to that little Hua Wang? ”

"You... How dare you scold your father for being confused? I'll beat you dead girl..."

"Master, what are you doing here?"

"You just beat our mother to death, now the business is already sluggish, that little thief not only arrested Qing'er last time, but also injured a few disciples, you still want to break the bank to make peace?"

Guo Qing followed the neck, but Mrs. Guo hurriedly rushed up from behind, protecting her daughter and yelling.

"What do you know as a woman?"

"Could it be that I, Guo Biao, am the only one in Nanzhang County, who is afraid of those little thieves? Tell you two that there are almost no people who don't send gifts to make amends last time. ”

"Ahh This... Are they all crazy? ”

"Dad, they want to farm, don't we go out of the city to farm, I'm afraid that those little thieves will do? Could it be that with their little men, they can still break into the city? ”

Mrs. Guo opened her mouth wide in surprise, but Guo Qing had a look of contempt and disdain.

"We really don't have to farm, but we have to go to the standard to transport goods, as the so-called not afraid of thieves stealing, afraid of thieves, now we are worried about that little Hua Wang, hey!"

Guo Biao said at the end, and sighed with his backhand.

"Sir, what happened?"

Seeing that her master was worried like this, Mrs. Guo couldn't help but be worried, and she also heard about the fate of the Qian family.

So she was still very afraid of those little thieves, she didn't want to be old, and one day she would have to warm the bed for those little thieves.

Guo Biao sighed again and explained the rejection of things.

"It's so hateful, it's so deceitful!" Guo Qing suddenly gritted his teeth and gurgled his teeth.

"Master, you must not go, if you have three long and two short, how can we live!"

"What are you crying about? I'm not dead yet, I have my own plans for this matter, and I'll go back to my room, and no one will be allowed to take half a step out of my heart in the future. ”

Seeing that he was really angry, the mother and daughter were also a little scared, and obediently went back to the inner house.

But Guo Biao was pacing back and forth in the hall.

Because he has been running around all the year round, he has a better understanding of the situation in various places than those gentry and landlords.

Although this Nanzhang county is tall, it may not be able to stop the thief army.

In the end, I gritted my teeth and decided to go secretly, otherwise I would not be able to do business in the future.

The only thing to worry about is that after Liu Xiaotian learns about it, he will hold a grudge against him.

After all, last time he helped himself out, and now he came to visit him in person, which was undoubtedly a slap in the face.

But as the saying goes, I'd rather offend the gentleman than the villain, and the lesser of the two powers, he felt that the little King Hua was much more threatening than Liu Xiaotian.

……

Guo Biao also chose to go at night, only brought two apprentices, and covered his face, which shows how cautious he is.

"King Qin, last time because of the little girl's matter, I caused a lot of trouble to Guizhai, and because the county ordered the adults to be forced to force each other, Guo had to send someone to participate in the first two things.

"Hey! It's serious, it's serious! ”

"It turned out that Guo Darttou came in person, and the previous unhappiness was written off, and no one was allowed to mention it again?"

"Then thank you Lord Qin for a lot, Guo is very grateful!"

Guo Biao hurriedly hugged his fists, looking at Qin Yu, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and at the same time he was amazed, but also sighed.

"Guo Darthead, it is said that the business of your dart bureau is not very prosperous now? I don't know if there is such a thing, and when was the Gui Dart Bureau established? ”

Qin Yu is still a little interested in the dart game at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and wants to know how this ancient express company developed.

"Let King Qin laugh, Guo is a rough person, except for some fists and kicks, nothing else, when he was young, he liked to make friends with some people in the rivers and lakes, and later opened a martial arts gym in Nanzhang City to make a living.

In the past few years, the world has become more and more unpeaceful, and some merchants saw that Guo and his disciples were not bad at fist and foot kung fu, and they were quite familiar with friends on the road, so they hired Guo and his disciples to accompany them.

Gradually, those merchants were troublesome, so they simply asked Guo to escort them alone, which formed today's standard, but in the past two years, the north has been in turmoil, and business has plummeted. ”

"I see!"

Qin Yu nodded, and then went straight to the point: "I invited Guo Daotou to come this time, just to ask Guo Daotou to purchase some things on his behalf." ”

"I don't know what King Qin wants to procure?"

Guo Biao is also single, he had already guessed that this would be the case, and he chose to come, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense.

"Okay, Guo Darttou is really fast-talking, this king likes to do business with cheerful people, I don't have many items to purchase, just three.

First, the more the better, I will be twenty percent more than the market price, second, copper, also two percent higher than the market price, as much as there is, and third, the little beggars or orphans between fourteen and sixteen years old, two taels each, the same more the better. ”

"Is King Qin's words true?"

When Guo Biao heard the end, he stood up in shock.

It was not surprising that this little king wanted to purchase sulfur, and it was normal for these little thieves to be equipped with a lot of firearms, and they knew how to prepare gunpowder.

Although it is a bit outrageous to buy a bronze cannon, this little king himself is a little demonic, and he can accept it.

But to his surprise, he was willing to pay a price two percent higher than the market price, and what shocked him even more was that two taels of silver was an orphan and a little beggar.

"This king does things, Tong Su has always been undeceived, say one or two, if Guo Dart is not at ease, I can pay you a deposit of 1,000 taels first?" Qin Yu waved his hand.

"King Qin's credibility, Guo naturally believes it." Guo Biao was overjoyed in his heart, but his face was silent and hurriedly replied.

Immediately, the two discussed the details and location of the delivery, and Guo Biao said goodbye and left.

Seeing that Qin Yu was more thoughtful than himself, Guo Biao was relieved and admired at the same time.

Moreover, Qin Yu also waved his hand and gave him a deposit of three thousand taels of silver in one go, after all, those silver were piled up in the warehouse, which was a pile of stones.

As long as he can buy what he urgently needs now, it doesn't matter if the price is a little higher, and he will raise it when the money is gone.
