Chapter 151: The Power of a Merchant
Kuaimeng slept tonight with this small jar that could see blood in his throat, until he was woken up by Li Wei the next day.
Seeing that the sky was not yet fully bright, as well as the remnants of the charcoal basin in the tent, and Li Wei with an excited face, "You kid, you can't have slept all night!" ”
"Hehe, Amon, do you know what's in there?" Li Wei excitedly shook the fragment of the Qianjin Fang in his hand, although he did not answer Kuaimeng's question, but Kuaimeng already knew.
"Isn't it just medicine?" Kuaimeng probably hasn't woken up yet, and his eyes are hazy and he doesn't know what Li Wei is talking about.
"Plague!" Li Jun smiled, "You must not have read this, this is the detailed annotation made by Mr. Zhang Zhongjing on the original Jingzhou plague, including how the plague was formed." ”
"Huh??" Kuaimeng raised his eyebrows, he was a little sober, "What about this story?" ”
Looking at the excitement on Li Wei's face, he continued to read the bamboo slips there, and his brows furrowed even deeper, "You called me up just to talk to me about this?" ”
"No!" Li Wei scratched his head and smiled, "Just now Zhang Shiping sent someone to say that we can go!" ”
As soon as Kuaimeng was about to continue to lie down and sleep, he was startled by Li Liu's words, "When?" ”
"Before I called you!" Li Wei said with an innocent face, "Didn't you see that I have washed up?" ”
Kuaimeng inhaled a cold air, and was almost carried away, "You guy..."
No matter what Kuaimeng thinks, now he has to hurry up to wash up and clean up, it's not dawn yet, and he doesn't know what Zhang Shiping wants to do.
A group of people packed their bags and took advantage of the night to walk down the mountain.
"Where am I going now?" Liu Fu hadn't sobered up yet, and asked the group of people around him with a confused face, "Could it be that we are going to Jiangdong?" ”
"Huh?" Kuaimeng was stunned for a moment, and was suddenly surprised by Liu Fu's IQ, "How did you know that we were going to Jiangdong now?" ”
This time it was Liu Fu's turn to be stunned, "Are we really going to Jiangdong?" I was blinded just now! ”
"Huh~Huh~" Kuaimeng tried to calm his mood for a while, and then calmed his temper, he knew that he must not have any hope for this reckless man.
When the sun rose in the sky, they finally walked out of the deep mountains, looking at the pipes that appeared again, and the horses that had not been lost, Liu Fu finally came to his senses, "Finally, you don't have to walk, let's go, let's enter Jiangdong!" ”
Watching Liu Fu rush forward, Kuaimeng's brows were furrowed, Li Wei rubbed his head, and only Zhang Shiping, who didn't know him yet, asked weakly, "What is this little brother going to do?" Jiangdong is not going that way, that side is going to Yizhou! ”
Kuaimeng smiled all over his face, and said to Zhang Shiping, "This, Ah Fu, Ping Suli is the most jumpy, hahaha, he will be back in a while, rest assured, rest assured!" ”
Zhang Shiping looked at the guy who had run away and didn't know where to go, and suddenly felt that he was a little reckless before, and then turned his head to look at Li Li on the side, and a smile changed on his face, which made Li Li Li very familiar and impressed.
"What are you going to do?" Li Wei's footsteps retreated slightly, he was already a little sensitive to this smile, "I'll tell you, don't think about it, a certain family has nothing now, don't laugh, a certain family is panicked, do you hear it!" ”
At the end of the day, Li Wei had already taken off his broadsword and placed it directly in front of him, as if Zhang Shiping in front of him was some kind of flood beast.
"Hey, little brother, don't be so nervous, I entrusted Xin'er to you at the beginning, but I inherited your great kindness, from the bottom of my heart, the old man is very grateful to the little brother, as for the original lied to you, there is really no way, the old man has no other way!"
Li Wei still didn't have any relaxation, and he was still cautious, "I know, a certain family doesn't blame you, but it's better for you to stay away from me!" ”
"Hey, can the little brother give the old man a chance to remedy? The old man deceived the little brother, but he was very sad! Zhang Shiping still had that gentle smile, "Little brother, looking at your appearance, I want to be running around a lot these days!" ”
"Hehe, thank you for your concern!"
"Have you ever been married?"
This sentence made Li Wei stunned, and he didn't reply for a long time, in fact, Li Li had a marriage contract, or Guan Ning personally said that the matchmaker was a girl from their village, at that time, the relationship between Li Li and the villagers in the village had just improved, and he could have had a good family, and he was indeed a good girl, but when he returned to the camp that day, the girl had been....
Seeing that Li Wei didn't speak, Zhang Shiping seemed to realize that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, and smiled awkwardly.
In the embarrassment of a group of people, Liu Fu finally brought the war horse back.
"Hehe, I was so excited just now, so I went to walk on the horse!" Liu Fu found a very reasonable reason for himself, "Let's go, you guys are in front, I'll follow!" ”
Seeing him like this, Kuai Meng shook his head helplessly, and said to Zhang Shiping, "Why don't you Boss Zhang, let's ride together?" ”
"No!" Zhang Shiping shook his head arrogantly and pointed into the distance, "One of the old man's guards went to buy the things needed for this trip last night!" ”
As Zhang Shiping's voice fell, Kuaimeng and the others also heard a squeaky sound in the distance.
"Boss Zhang, you bought a lot of things!" Kuaimeng smiled, listening to the faint voice, he knew that there were a lot of things, and the weight was not light!
"Let's go, let's take it by the way!" Zhang Shiping smiled, took his subordinates and walked in that direction, and at the same time, Kuai Meng also waved his hand and followed with a few lands.
Soon they saw a convoy, although there was only one person, but it was a real convoy!
"This...."Liu Fu couldn't help but swallow when he saw the long convoy, "Where did you get this from?" ”
"Those who dare to do this business always have their own way, and they can't see the light of business, and they all take the night road with black lights and blind fire." Zhang Shiping laughed, "All your outfits, dress up, our journey will not be easy!" ”
After finishing speaking, the bento went over first, took a small baggage, and went straight to change clothes.
Kuaimeng and the others looked at this scene, but they were not polite, time was pressing, if it dragged on for a while, it would be more embarrassing if someone came after a while, it was better to take advantage of no one to hurry up and change it.
When everyone changed into new clothes, everyone changed their appearance.
Zhang Shiping wears gold and silver, and looks like a high-ranking officer, and he is still the kind of person who is extremely rich.
The guards have not changed much, but the dress of this body, including the blades in their hands, is brand new, and it is very sophisticated, Kuai Meng touched the leather armor on their bodies, to be honest, it is not worse than that of the Jingzhou army, or even better.
And the three of them have changed a lot.
Let's talk about Kuaimeng first, a clean and refreshing green shirt, white jade hairpins and hairpins, a good Hetian warm jade hanging around his waist, a small incense burner with green smoke in his hand, and with his noble son's bearing, the whole is a born noble son.
Liu Fu is accustomed to armor, and the knife in his hand is still the big knife sent by General Guan, but the BMW under the crotch has been replaced by a good BMW horse, and there is a saber pinned to his waist that looks very sharp, and the one that wraps the war knife is also a good leather, as for the bow and arrow on the war horse, it is even more weighty, and it can be seen at a glance, and the cost is expensive.
As for Li Wei, he didn't look like he had changed much, but he just put on a tough short fight, and the good cowhide was sewn inside, which not only did not affect his activities, but also his protection was not low at all. But only he knew that he had never been so fully equipped as he was now.
He knew that it might be dangerous to go down to Jiangdong this time, he didn't regret it, this is what he promised his friends, although they really haven't known each other for a long time, but their group of people has made them feel at home again, so he is willing to work hard for this group of people, not for anything else, just because he is still young, or a crazy age.
But he has always wanted to find time to build some equipment, he had nothing else on his body before except short knives and broadswords, but he didn't know how many blacksmith shops in Changsha, but he didn't find one that satisfied him, and he couldn't rest assured that they could help him build equipment.
Now he didn't say anything, but in the baggage handed to him by the guards under Zhang Shiping, there was everything he knew, its exquisiteness, its smallness, and its sharpness made him frightened.
At the same time, Li Lian was also a little shocked in his heart, not to mention anything else, just said that Zhang Shiping's eyesight made him a little admired, although Li Lian and him are old acquaintances, but it is not familiar to meet him in a hurry, Kuaimeng has never seen him, this glance can know what he needs, it must be said, he is worthy of being a man of the year who went south and north.
"Why didn't Boss Zhang let me wait and pretend to be a guard in the accounting room, wouldn't this be even more inconspicuous?" Kuai Meng looked at this dress, and he estimated that he would probably be able to be noticed as soon as he entered Jiangdong.
Zhang Shiping smiled and shook his head lightly, "If you want to pretend to be your own people, it seems appropriate, but in fact, you can't hide it from someone with a heart, if it is a real spy, you only need to look at it for a while to find loopholes, instead of covering it up, it is better to pretend to be a person on the same road, so that it will work wonders if you don't hide it." ”
Kuai Meng nodded, "Boss Zhang is so experienced, admire!" Admire! ”
"Let's go, it's not close." Zhang Shiping beckoned, and then stepped on a horse first, and at the same time, the guards also got into the car and walked away with the convoy, and after the three of them also packed up, they followed behind, really like people on the same road,
On the way, Liu Fu was still a little uneasy, "This guy was chased and killed by Jiangdong before, and although our two faces are not famous in Jiangdong, we know a lot, why don't you let Hanlong give us a beating?" ”
Li Wei slowly turned his head in front, "Don't think about it, I didn't bring the tools, this thing is unreliable!" ”
Kuai Meng also said, "It's okay to fool the layman with his skills, fool the real spy, forget it, the ability of the school council, I don't believe that people in Jiangdong won't, it's time to look at this Elder Zhang... Mr. Zhang, what can be done? ”
Liu Fu didn't speak in silence, he was still a little uneasy, he was different from others, these people were taking risks for themselves, he was always worried that as soon as he opened his eyes one day, this group of people would be gone, this kind of scene, he had dreamed many times.
The group walked from day to night, they did not go through the forest to climb the mountain, but took the widest pipeline, entered the city, ate the best restaurant, lived in the best inn, this kind of enjoyment, so that Liu Fu and Kuai Meng, who have lived a hard life for more than a year, are really a little nostalgic.
Looking at the wine and meat dishes on the table, it was already midwinter, but there were fresh vegetables and vegetables, this kind of enjoyment, Li Wei, who had been poor since he was a child, was dumbfounded.
"Time is pressing, it's too late to give you a little bit!" Zhang Shiping looked at Li Wei's appearance, shook his head and said, "Remember, your identity is from the Central Plains, Kuaimeng is a child of a big family, among which Liu Fu is a strong martial arts guard, and Hanlong, you are a capable man who protects your son." ”
After finishing speaking, he also looked at Li Wei, this was the one who did not reassure him the most, "Boy, both of them have been rich and noble, so they only need a little memory to recover as before, but you can't, you may have suffered too much since childhood, although you are not inferior, but you are not proud, this is not good, as an assassin, you must change!" ”
"Also, you not only have to be arrogant, but you also have this bearing, if you are asked to pretend to be a common man, pretend to be a beggar or something, you are vivid, but you have to be a staff member of a rich and noble family, hehe, people will not look down on this appearance!
Don't care about your face, the real upper-class people value your gestures, you can see what you do at first glance, you assassin is half-hung at a glance, you ran out before you finished learning, if you want to go further, you can't just be good at martial arts! ”
In the end, Zhang Shiping, who said such a lot, also nodded at Li Wei, "Just like this, do you know how much money it cost the old man?" ”
Li Li looked at himself, except for the scattered objects on his body, looking at the materials, how could he get half a penny, but before he could say it, Zhang Shiping gave him the answer to his question.
"The material is from Yizhou to get out of the Shu brocade, the best Shu brocade, this thing was for the royal family, now it is not expensive, a dress is only about thirty times, but the cowhide sewn for you inside is the best bison skin, not polished, only one bison on a bison, five dollars, but the workmanship is expensive, the workmanship is more than three times the material!
Besides, the scattered ones on your body are all made of fine iron, and the people invited are all masters of the Yizhou Pu family, although they are inventory, but this does not affect their price, and the things in this body, not to mention the materials, are not less than 100 yuan in personnel and kung fu alone. ”
Zhang Shiping said a word, Li Li's face pulled out, and when Zhang Shiping finished speaking, Li Li was completely stunned.
However, Zhang Shiping didn't plan to let him go, and pointed to Kuaimeng and continued, "Do you know how much this kid is doing? ”
This time, without waiting for Zhang Shiping to answer, Kuai Meng said for him, "The incense is a good century-old agarwood, this thing is only available in Nanyue and Jiaozhou, this furnace should have twenty pieces, and this incense burner is exquisitely made, the white one on the top should be the best silver paste, and the top beads should be the best jadeite, this thing is no less than a hundred times."
Then there is the white hosta on the head, this texture and feel is the best white marble, if this thing is placed in Chang'an back then, if there is no good copper coin, it is not to think about it.
But this dress is average, the same as yours, it is all Shu brocade from Yizhou, but I am a long shirt, and a color of plain cyan, not very good, but this material is also good, now Yizhou Road is not passable, that is, fifty or sixty yuan on the line.
But if you really want to say that it is precious, it has to be my piece of jade, Lantian warm jade, the high-grade jade that came out of Lantian Daying, this thing is not a beam with money, if it is really to talk about it, I am afraid I can buy half of the small county town. ”
Kuai Meng analyzed the things on his body little by little, and then Li Wei's chopsticks were completely put down, he was already a little afraid to eat, and when he saw Liu Fu who was eating and drinking, he suddenly felt that the body on this guy would not be cheap.
Zhang Shiping looked at Li Li and smiled flatly, "Hanlong, if you want to do the next thing, you have to learn these, your bearing, your inside, you have to cultivate it!"
The old man does not mean that people can only have the bearing and intrinsic ability to have money, but those who are in the top position all the year round are naturally different from ordinary people, and in the same way, a child who grew up with thousands of family wealth and a child who has been busy for a living since he was a child, they are also different, this is no way. ”
Li Jun looked at Zhang Shiping who was smiling, and then looked at Kuaimeng who was drinking tea and soup plainly, at this time, he suddenly found that wearing this clothes and wearing this decoration Kuaimeng became more rich and compelling, and even drinking tea seemed so calm.
"Is this the inner and the bearing?" Li Wei looked at Kuaimeng and asked lightly, he had always heard others say that those sons of the family drank wine and tea, how comfortable and casual, how graceful they were, and so many rules, he had always been hypocritical, but when he saw Kuaimeng today, he suddenly felt that maybe those people did not lie to themselves.
Zhang Shiping also looked at Kuaimeng, and couldn't help stroking his palms and laughing, "Yes, that's what it looks like, it's not like how you learn, but at least you have to have this kind of bearing, otherwise no matter how luxurious you dress, in the eyes of those people, you are just a bun."
Ordinary dress, the wealth and talent revealed by gestures, and the extraordinary bearing of words and deeds will make people really look up to you, and you can do what you want to do! ”
"No!"
