Shi Liang hurriedly returned the salute.

An Chong, the name is somewhat familiar, he thought about it for a while, and thought of it.

Isn't that the one who does the kidnapping business?

Shi Liang's complexion changed slightly.

Although the trade of captivity is also a business, after all, he is not a serious businessman, not even a slave trader, but a villain who is like a thief.

Shicai's secret praise for An Chong was inevitably much weaker all of a sudden, and Shi Liangsheng started to stay away.

An Chong saw Shi Liang's changes, his expression did not move, and he said with a smile: "I heard that Shi Jun made a lot of military achievements when he attacked the Western Regions from the auxiliary general. Shi Jun's current position as Sima was obtained because of his military exploits? ”

These words scratched Shi Liang's itch.

Shi Liang's current official position as "Sima" is indeed due to merit.

And this "merit" is not Xin Er's "favoritism", false reporting, he really made it.

This merit is not the work of killing the enemy, but after the defeat of the King of Qiuci, Shi Liang made a clear picture of the big merchants and wealthy families in the city, investigated their family property clearly, and made great contributions to Xin Er's order to pay the "war expenses" for these people.

He replied, "A little bit of work, not worth mentioning." It is all the auxiliary generals who command like gods, and the Western Regions can calmly negotiate. ”

An Chong said yearningly: "Hearing that General Fuguo attacked Shanshan, set up a formation of Qiuzi, was not afraid of danger, burned Hu Cai, and defeated 100,000 enemy soldiers, it was really moving, just thinking about it, my heart was shaken." Shi Jun, I won't tell you, I can't wait to be there at the time and kill one or two thieves for the auxiliary generals! ”

Shi Liang smiled slightly, did not answer, raised his eyes, and looked at the main hall of the Zoroastrian Temple behind the corridor, intending to go in and worship the holy fire.

An Chong said: "Shi Jun, I know you probably don't want to deal with me. ”

Shi Liang didn't expect him to say it so directly, there is a way to make money with harmony, and the nature of a businessman makes him unwilling to offend people easily, but An Chong is notorious, he doesn't want to grudge with him, and reluctantly replied with a smile: "An Jun said this, where to start!" I don't mean to. ”

An Chong said: "I know that my reputation in Longdi is not good.

"But Shi Jun, I can't help it. My family used to be in business, but then it was not well managed, not only did the shop disappear, the business had not been done, but the family's land, slaves, cattle and horses, and valuable things were also robbed by creditors.

"My mother is old, and I have to support her. Shi Jun, to tell you the truth, I had nothing to do, so I embarked on the road of plundering and selling slaves. ”

An Chong's tone was very helpless, a pair of blue eyes covered the ferocity of a wolf, and in the blink of an eye, it revealed a decent sincerity.

Shi Liang said: "I haven't been in Wangcheng for a long time, and I have heard of the name of Jun Yongxiao and filial piety. ”

"Shi Jun, I won't tell you, I took the initiative to talk to you today, but I actually have something to ask for."

"What?"

"I have long had the ambition to join the army, but I have no way to advance."

"If you join the army, fame and fortune must be captured." Shi Liang asked him, "Since you have this ambition, why didn't you sign up for the martial arts exam some time ago?" ”

"When I signed up, I wasn't in Guyin, and when I came back and found out about it, the time for registration had passed. I regret it! ”

"It doesn't matter, the martial arts exam is held once every three years, and in the year after tomorrow, you still have a chance."

An Chong said sadly: "Shi Jun, I won't tell you, the reason why I have the ambition to join the army is because my mother has always hoped that I can glorify the lintel and revive the family's reputation. I am over thirty years old this year, and in another three years, Shi Jun, I can afford to wait, but my mother is now seventy, old and sick, lingering on the sickbed, I am afraid that her body is not good, I am afraid that she will not be able to wait for that day, I let her raise her eyebrows! ”

Shi Liangxin said: "You are Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, your mother is already seventy, was your mother born when she was forty?" The old clam gives birth to pearls, and he will spoil the young son, no wonder you grow up to be light and chivalrous, and use force to prohibit it. …… This An Chong likes to say, 'I won't tell you a secret'. ”

An Chong looked at Shi Liang longingly, and said: "Shi Jun is willing to help me, and after Chong, I dare to ask for Jun Niu Ma to go." ”

"How dare you, how dare you. An Jun, I'm just a little Sima, how can I help you? ”

"Shi Jun, I won't tell you, although Chong is stubborn, he has a little martial arts, if you can recommend Chong to the auxiliary general, with Chong's ability, you may be able to use it as an auxiliary general."

Shi Liang was silent.

An Chong said: "If you are willing to lend a hand and pull out of the quagmire, you will be rewarded for your virtue, and you will never forget it!" ”

Shi Liang thought: "An Chong is burly and powerful, and he is a warrior. When the general is now employed, if I recommend him to the general, he may really be of great use. All the officials in the general's palace, except for a few people such as Gao Chong, I am not familiar with them, and I often feel lonely. An Chong has been recommended by me, we are both of the same species, if he can be reused by the general, I may be able to get some help from him in the future? ”

Thinking of this, his heart relaxed, but Shi Liang didn't give a clear answer immediately, just said vaguely, "I'll do my best." ”

An Chong was overjoyed, took out a piece of jade from his arms, presented it to Shi Liang, and said with a smile: "I know that Shi Jun is rich and rich, and I have seen a lot of things, and I have nothing to offer." Only this treasure jade, which I got by accident, has a lovely color, seems to be a play, and dares to ask Shi Jun to accept it. ”

The jade is different from ordinary jade, the color is dark blue, and thick but not black, the spring shines, reflecting the luster of the luster.

Shi Liang recognized that the Tang name of this thing was called Liuli,—— which was a transliteration of Sanskrit. This thing is rare in the Central Plains, and its origin is mainly in the Western Regions, and its value is expensive. Most of the time, it is used as a decoration and inlaid on jewelry such as masks, rings, necklaces, etc.

The piece of jade that An Chong took out was not small, although Shi Liang didn't think it was rare, but it was rare to see such a big one.

Shi Liang refused to accept it.

The two pushed.

An Chong was also arrogant, and seeing that Shi Liang insisted on not accepting it, he just did.

He changed hands and gave this jade to Sa Bao of the Zoroastrian Temple, and explained loudly: "This is donated by Shi Jun to the temple." ”

Feeling the amazed eyes of Sa Bao and the believers in the temple, and hearing their words of praise, Rao Shi Liang was used to seeing the scene, and he couldn't help but be a little reserved.

Shi Liang and An Chong entered the temple hall together to worship the holy fire.

That night, Xin Er feasted on Ko Shuang, Cao Fei, Ling Huqu and so on.

At the table, Xin Er put forward Zhang Gui's suggestion and his intention to recommend Lilan as the main general of the reinforcements.

Koji Shuang agreed with both hands.

Cao Fei had no objection, but after the dismissal, he said to Xin Er drunkenly: "Ah Gua, although my brother's close relatives are gone, but I took two fake sons the month before last. These two fakes are all capable of fighting! ”

Xin Er heard the string song, knew the meaning of elegance, and said with a smile: "The tiger father has no dogs." Lao Cao, your false son is capable of fighting. Don't worry, your son, that is, my son, when I have the opportunity, I will definitely ask the king to send them into battle! ”

Cao Fei was satisfied.

Not to mention that Xin Er has decided to help Shuo.

However, it was said that in Puqin, Meng Lang and Gou Xiong led the troops north, and before they arrived in Shuofang that day, the two had a conflict first.
