Guan Yu put on a face, didn't speak, and sat aside. Wen Han told Zhou Long what happened today, Zhou Long was full of cold sweat when he heard it, for ordinary people like him, the Runan Yuan clan is the sky, not to mention offending them, and he is not even qualified to say a word to them.

"Oops! Brother Xian, why are you so impulsive? What is it that makes this courage of yours so hard? I just offended the wealthy family 'Cui family' in this county, and now I offend the Yuan family in Runan! You! You! You! Hurry up and apologize to Brother Yuan, otherwise when they kill you, you won't even have a chance to beg for mercy! ”

Zhou Long's face was anxious, and he took Wen Han's hand and was about to go out.

"Brother! Why are you so scared. That Runan Yuan's dog looks down on people and treats me as an ant. Now, you have to go to them and wag your tail and beg for mercy. Could it be that you are really an inferior person as Yuan Highway said? ”

Guan Yu stood up and shouted. Zhou Long's body trembled suddenly, turned around, blushed and pointed at Guan Yu angrily: "I want to wag my tail and beg for mercy?" Do you know? The power of the Yuan clan in Runan is so great, the fourth world and the third duke, others can give orders casually, and they can kill extraordinary lives! Other people's families are powerful, what are we going to do to fight against them!! ”

Guan Yu and Zhou Long were arguing angrily, but Wen Han closed his eyes and listened quietly to their quarrel. This trouble attracted Lin, Li Qiang, and Pei Yuanshao.

"Enough! Shut up! Wen Han suddenly burst into a loud shout, and immediately stopped the two of them, and everyone present turned their eyes to Wen Han.

"We come from humble beginnings. The wealthy family despises us because of our weak strength. Because of this, we must work together, be angry, and accumulate steadily. In this world, the number of wealthy families is far smaller than that of Hanshi, why can wealthy families control the world?

It is because the Han Shi is afraid of the wealthy family, and they are willing to accept their fate, and in their minds, they think that the wealthy family cannot be hostile! But I believe that man will conquer heaven! Although I am extraordinary, although I am a small person, I am unwilling to accept my fate and am played by the wealthy family in applause! My life is in the palm of my heart, and I want everyone to be like a dragon and control their own destiny.

This is my grand wish, and for this, even if it is broken! ”

After Wen Han said this, he left freely.

There was silence in the hall, and Wen Han had something to say. Most of the people who make great wishes are the powerful ones who can change the dynasty. Pei Yuanshao and Li Qiang looked at each other and smiled, seeing that their master had great ambitions, this was their blessing. Although, Wen Han is now just an insignificant existence for those wealthy families.

However, Pei Yuanshao and Li Qiang, who had experienced the Battle of Black Wind and the Battle of Huang Le, knew that Wen Han was capable. So, both of them believe in Wen Han. This trust is truly killed.

As for Guan Yu and Zhou Long, they stood quietly for a while and then left. The two of them had different thoughts, and they were both thinking.

Zhou Long knew that Wen Han had great ambitions and was ready to help him, but every time Wen Han provoked a big person, Zhou Long was caught off guard for a while.

Zhou Long is the kind of person who thinks about the bad and has pessimism. And Zhou Long's pessimism is entirely because of his inferiority, he often thinks that he is incapable, and once he encounters a problem, he immediately feels that the sky is about to fall. Wen Han knows his character, and today's words are just to wake up Zhou Long.

And Guan Yu, he admires Wen Han. But it's just about appreciation. Wen Han's words have the flavor of looking for like-minded people to jointly fulfill the grand wish. Guan Yu heard it, but did not say that he should be observing Wen Han in his heart.

After a few days in a row, Zhou Long locked himself in his room except for doing things in the county government on weekdays. Wen Han once asked Lin, and Lin replied with a smile. said that Zhou Long was reading books in the room to strengthen himself, and he should not be an inferior person in Yuan Highway's mouth. Wen Han was very pleased to see that Zhou Long was willing to improve himself.

There are still two or three days before the horse crane competition, and the Lin family is very busy, even if Wen Han asks Li Qiang and Cheng Dong, two people who used to manage the gambling house, to help, they are still very busy. Lin counted the parameters, the number of low-grade participants, a total of about 3,000 people, except for the 1,000 people in this county, the others are gamblers gathered from various counties. Most of the participants in the mid-range were businessmen from various counties, with a total of more than 500 people. Finally, there is the high-end area, because some wealthy families have personally come to the Lin family, requiring this high-end area to limit the number of people and strictly check their identity. So after a round of screening, the number of participants in the high-end area is only about 60.

Because Wenhan's village is inconvenient as a venue, so Lin bought a house in Xie County, which is decorative, and Lin spent a lot of money to divide the house into three different areas, the more high-end the area, the more luxurious the furnishings.

However, the number of participants in this low-end area far exceeded Lin's expectations, and there was no room for so many people. Wen Han suggested that Lin divide it into a few days, which solved the problem. In order to avoid the people who participated in the competition, Wen Han did not understand the rules, and there would be a lot of bad luck with the accounts. Let Lin insert a wooden board in the venue, and the rules are engraved on the board.

Four contestants play a table and ten tournaments are played, and the one who wins the most money after 10 games is considered the winner of the first round, and the rest are eliminated. The winner of the first round of each table will gather four more people to hold the second round, and after ten games, the winner of the second round will be decided. In this cycle, the remaining four contestants are eliminated and the final ten competitions are played to determine the rankings.

These four contestants, after deciding the rankings, received bonuses and could directly advance to the mid-range area and compete again. The rules of the mid-range area are the same as those of the low-end area, and the top four will be determined and promoted to the high-end area. Finally, in the high-end area, the person who won the final race was given the title of "horse hanging" by the county order 'Yang Hong'.

Regarding the matter of the horse crane competition, Wen Han did not interfere too much, but only guided Lin, Li Qiang, and Cheng Dong on the side. In my spare time, I am training.

However, a few days ago, Wen Han invited a group of blacksmiths, about twenty or thirty people, and arranged for them to live in the village. Then, according to their wishes, some useless rooms were converted into blacksmith rooms.

These people, Wen Han has secretly done investigations, and they are all blacksmiths whose innocence has nothing to do with the wealthy family. Wen Han handed them a handscroll with a saddle stirrup painted on it, and told them not to leak it. When the blacksmiths looked at the drawings, they were astonished, and knew that the matter was very important, so they immediately promised to keep it a secret, and began to make it.

Inside Yang Hong's mansion.

Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Xu You sat in the main hall of the Yang Mansion respectively, and Yang Hong was full of smiles, carefully serving the three sons. These three people, except for Xu You, the two Yuan brothers are more noble than Yang Hong in terms of identity and official position than Yang Hong, in order to keep the black gauze hat on his head, Yang Hong does not dare to offend a little.

"Yang Hong. Thou say it again. Who invented this horse crane? ”

Yuan Shu had a gloomy face, and a pair of vicious eyes stared at Yang Hong.

"If you go back to the mansion Lord Yin, this horse hanging is Wen Han, and Wen Bufan invented it."

Yang Hong was sweating profusely, nodded and replied.

Syllable!

Yuan Shu slammed the tea table and stood up.

"How can it be so extraordinary! It's really haunting and annoying! ”

Yuan Shu gritted his teeth, remembering the poems that Wenhan recited in Wangyue Tower that day, he was full of fire!

"Hey. Brother Shu, don't be angry. Yuan Shao saw that Yuan Shu was about to go away again, so he hurriedly persuaded, and then turned his head to Yang Hong and said, "It is a horse crane invented by Wen Bufan." Why did I hear that the owner of the gambling house that held the horse hanging competition this time was He Zhubo's adjutant 'Zhou Long', Zhou Zidan? ”

Yang Hong saw that Yuan Shu was angry, and his heart couldn't help but chuckle, and then listened to Yuan Shao's question, and responded cautiously: "My lord doesn't know anything." This Wen Han was originally chased and killed by the enemy, but he escaped by luck and was rescued by Zhou Long. The two are like brothers. So..."

"Alright. I see. Yuan Shao shook his hand, interrupted Yang Hong's words, pondered for a while, and then spoke: "We are the four young people of Luoyang, on the orders of General He. I came here to find the person who invented the horse crane, invited him to Luoyang, and gave him a fortune.

However, this Wen Han has a bit of intelligence, and he is very disgusted with us. I don't know what kind of high opinion Lord Yang Hong has, can relieve the boredom in my heart? ”

Yuan Shao did not hide his dissatisfaction with Wen Bufan in his words, Yang Hong guessed that Wen Han must have offended the two Yuan brothers, and the Yuan brothers not only did not want to give Wen Han the wealth that originally belonged to him, but also wanted to kill Wen Han secretly.

"Wen Bufan, don't blame this county order. Blame yourself for not offending those whom you cannot offend. ”

Yang Hong secretly slandered, and said from the heart: "This horse crane was first popular in Xie County, and it can be said that the people of this county are all proficient in this. The county ordered to find a person and ordered him to consider him the inventor of the horse crane and give him a fortune.

As for Na Wenhan, he was bold enough to dare to speak disrespectfully to adults. This man must be the one who is evil. However, Wen Han is a bully in the county, and there are 500 private soldiers in his hands, all of whom are extremely violent. If he sent troops to attack his village, he would surely have suffered countless casualties. Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu are so noble, there was a dispute with Na Wenhan the day before yesterday, if Wen Han suspects the head of the adult's brother, then he will talk nonsense, and it will hurt the adult's reputation. ”

"Good! No wonder this Wen Bufan is so arrogant, he, he actually has private soldiers! I will immediately send my generals Lei Bo and Chen Lan to kill him! ”

Actually, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is not uncommon for non-court officials to have private soldiers, diners, and staff, but they are generally wealthy families or wealthy merchants. The court knew that these scholars gathered private soldiers, diners, and staff members to protect their family business, and the scholars were powerful at that time, so they could only turn a blind eye.

Yuan Shu's eyes narrowed, and he was about to call someone. At this time, Yuan Shao stopped him and said, "Brother Shu, don't be impulsive. The red-faced man who came with Wen Bufan that day was extraordinary in martial arts. Moreover, if we want to be extraordinary, it is inconvenient for our subordinates to show up. Let's listen to it first, what is the clever plan of Yang County's order. ”

Yuan Shu listened to Yuan Shao's words, so he suppressed his thoughts. snorted coldly, and didn't want to lose face, so he immediately put on a face.
