Chapter Eighty-Five: Eating people with soft mouths and short hands with short hands

In a restaurant opposite the Kokuro in Tokyo.

Tang Long and Ling Zhen waited for a long time before a young man with a big belly, fat head and big ears came.

As soon as he saw the young man coming in, Ling Zhen immediately got up and introduced Tang Long: "Brother-in-law, this is Liang Yanei, the envoy of Liang Zheng that I told my brother-in-law, my immediate boss, the son of the Hidden Moth, and the grandson of the scholar of Su University." ”

It is said that when Su Shi was far away, he sent the maid to Liang's friends, and Liang Shicheng was born in less than a month, so Liang Shicheng called himself "Su Shi's son" and "Su's body".

Liang Shicheng's statement was not denied by the Su family.

It can be regarded as a confirmation that Liang Shicheng is the son of Su Shi.

And Liang Shicheng took into account the brotherhood, and even said to the account room at home: "If Xiao Su uses money, less than 10,000 yuan, you don't have to sue me, just pay it." ”

Su Shi's articles were banned, and those in the people were destroyed, and Liang Shicheng complained to Song Huizong about his grievances: "What is the crime of my ancestors? After that, Su Shi's article slowly became popular.

Therefore, Ling Zhencai said that Liang Shicheng's godson was the grandson of Su Shi.

Tang Long hurriedly greeted him and said, "I have long admired the name of the Yanai!" ”

Liang Yanei said impatiently: "I have something to do in a while, let's get to the point, what are you two looking for me to do?" ”

Tang Long heard the words and said: "My master wants to buy a batch of armor with the yamen and go back to the courtyard, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Hearing that it was to buy soldier armor, Liang Yanei was a little interested and said, "How much?" ”

Tang Long said the number he had thought of before: "Two hundred iron armor, five hundred leather armor, and one thousand paper armor, is it okay?" ”

Liang Yanei's eyes lit up!

However, Liang Yanei quickly concealed his true emotions and said, "Sit down and say." ”

Hearing this, Tang Long hurriedly asked Liang Yanei to sit down.

After sitting down, Liang Yanei asked, "Who is the master of your family?" ”

Tang Long said vaguely: "A member of Jingxi Road." ”

Liang Yanei did not delve into it, but said with a smile: "Jingxi Road is a good place, where there are hundreds of bandits and strongmen, and there are countless villages. ”

When Tang Long heard this, he immediately became vigilant!

Liang Yanei pressed down his hand and said, "Hugh should be nervous, I'm not interested in catching you, I'm interested in Qian Yin." ”

Seeing that Tang Long was still on guard, Liang Yanei shook his head and said, "You are timid, how can you do big things?" ”

Tang Long arched his hand and said, "Please speak clearly." ”

Liang Yanei was too lazy to go around in circles with Tang Long, and said: "My father has a meritorious service in supervising the cultivation of Mingtang, and he will soon be appointed as the envoy of the three sections of the country, Zhendong, and Hedong, and I will also have to go with him to help Ying, and when he is on the ground, he will be relieved of his post as the commander of the army, and there are 1,000 iron armor, 2,000 leather armor, 5,000 paper armor, and nearly 10,000 long and short weapons. ”

"This ......"

Liang Yanei said again: "If you buy these armors at the market price, I can also sell you a batch of war horses." ”

When he said this, Liang Yanei had been watching Tang Long's reaction.

Seeing that Tang Long didn't show that he couldn't eat so many things, but just doubted the authenticity of this transaction, Liang Ya was overjoyed in his heart!

Tang Long thought for a while and said, "How can I take these many things?" ”

Liang Yanei smiled and said: "You can hire a boat to leave, as long as you pay the deposit, I will have someone send the armor including the horses to the place you designate, and then the money and goods will be cleared." ”

Tang Long said: "Now Kaifeng Mansion is under martial law......"

Liang Yanei smiled "haha" and said: "It's just a few roads, what's the difficulty, I'll do it with all my might...... It's just that the price can't be cheap. ”

For such a major event, Tang Long naturally can't call the shots.

Tang Long said: "I will consider the content of the yaya for one day, and then decide tomorrow, how about it?" ”

Liang Yanei also knew that such a big deal, Tang Long, the person who made the response, could not be decided, and said, "Wait for good news." ”

After speaking, Liang Yanei left.

After sending Liang Yanei away, Tang Long and Ling Zhen returned to the restaurant.

After sitting down, Tang Long began to ponder the truth of Liang Yanei's words......

Ling Zhen stared at Tang Long for a while, and said, "Brother Yi, you honestly tell me, who are you?" ”

Tang Long was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "I'm Tang Long, the money leopard Tang Long, it turns out to be a blacksmith." ”

Ling Zhen said: "Brother Hugh wants to laugh, what is your identity, how can you buy so many armors?" ”

Tang Long felt that the heat was almost over, and it was time to have a showdown with Ling Zhen, so he said: "I am now the leader of Shuibo Liangshan Supervisor to build military armor, and this time I came to Beijing to recruit craftsmen and buy armor for the mountain, and the craftsmen you helped me Gu Qian have all arrived in my Liangshan at this time." ”

"You hurt me!" Ling Zhen was shocked and angry!

It turned out that before Tang Long went to Beijing, Li Yan gave him a task - to earn the world's first gunner Ling Zhen to go up the mountain.

Therefore, as soon as he came to Kaifeng Mansion, Tang Long asked a friend to meet Ling Zhen.

After that, Tang Long would entertain Ling Zhen every once in a while, and occasionally take Ling Zhen to the Qinglou for a visit.

It didn't take long for Ling Zhen to marry Tang Long at Tang Long's suggestion.

Tang Long told Ling Zhen that he was the governor of Lijiazhuang, Jeju Prefecture, and that he had come to Beijing this time to recruit craftsmen and buy soldiers.

At this time, there were many family-style gangsters like Zhujiazhuang, Gujiazhuang, Lijiazhuang, and Fengyunzhuang in the Great Song Dynasty.

If you are a private soldier, you naturally have to buy armor.

Ling Zhen, who was on an errand in the Jiazhan Library, had long been surprised.

The deputy gunner of the armor warehouse is an idle man, except for the salute released during the New Year's holidays, Ling Zhen has nothing else to do, so he took the initiative to help Tang Long recruit craftsmen to buy weapons, after all, eating people is soft-mouthed and short-handed.

Before and after, Ling Zhen helped Tang Long recruit dozens of craftsmen with his acquaintances, plus Tang Long's own recruitment, in the past few months, the two have sent more than 150 craftsmen to Shuibo Liangshan, and Ling Zhen also helped Tang Long buy thousands of armor, which have now returned to Shuibo Liangshan with those craftsmen.

A few days ago, Ling Zhen's old father had a big birthday, and Tang Long cast a three-pound golden Buddha for the old man.

Ling Zhen was both long-faced and a little reluctant, so he cheekily introduced his top boss Liang Yanei to Tang Long, and wanted to return Tang Long's favor.

No, Tang Long's appetite is so big, he wants tens of thousands of soldiers!

What kind of Zhuangzi needs so many armor?

If this still doesn't show that Tang Long has a problem, then Ling Zhen has also lived for more than thirty years in vain.

Therefore, Ling Zhencai interrogated Tang Long's identity and learned that Tang Long was a thief from Shuibo Liangshan.

Tang Long said: "I don't expect that Liang Yanei will not personally trade with us, on another day, even if this transaction is found out, he will not be able to bring him, and someone will excuse him, and brother, you don't have a powerful person like Liang Xianggong, and you are the person who connects this large transaction...... Brother, I don't think your petty official who fires the salute will stop doing it, just go up the mountain with me to eat meat, drink wine, and do the right thing for heaven......"
