More than 300 miles, the journey was not just one day, and at noon on this day, Wang Lun and his party finally arrived at the Daimyo's Mansion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info one of the four capitals of the Great Song Dynasty and the first important town in Hebei.

According to the address, a few people looked at the south gate of Beijing, and there was no mile, but they saw the city gate early, and they were good at Beijing! But see:

The city is high and dangerous, and the trench is wide and deep. A week back to the antlers, four rows of forks densely packed. The drum tower is majestic, colorful flags; The road is flat, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds are clustered. The drums in the east and west courtyards are noisy, and the north and south stores are full of goods. At this time, thieves appeared everywhere in the world, and all state capitals and counties had military horses to guard them. However, Beijing is the first-class existence in Hebei, and no one dares to provoke strong soldiers and horses.

At this time, the gate of Beijing City was wide open, and there was a barrage of horses in the center, and a team of officers and soldiers held hands on both sides, and from time to time checked pedestrians for a few words.

When it was Wang Lun's turn to enter the city, the officers and soldiers originally wanted to check the carriage and luggage and take the opportunity to collect money.

Wang Lun took out the road guide issued by the Jeju Yamen and the certificate of the Jeju Wuju people and handed them to the officials and soldiers led by him. "Jeju Wuju Wang Lun traveled here!"

The soldiers were naturally afraid of those who read and had a good reputation, and waved their hands to let them go.

Thinking of the future martial arts in his hands, the generals led by him were jealous. If you have the fame of martial arts, where will you eat sand here.

Jiao Ting raised his whip and drove forward, muttering a sentence in his mouth. "The soft eggs of the fox and the fake tiger!"

People had to bow their heads under the eaves, and Wang Lun signaled Jiao Ting not to cause trouble.

Wang Lun and the others should go first, and the people behind them passed by one at a time. Behind came an old man and a young man, two of whom were about to enter the city, and they were driving a dozen horses.

Wang Xin turned around and inadvertently saw these dozen horses, and his eyes lit up. "Brother, look, the best steed!"

Wang Lun looked back and saw that these horses were indeed good, they were long and strong, and their coats were shiny, and the horses he sat on couldn't compare at all.

When the officers and soldiers guarding the gate saw these two men driving horses, they looked at each other and smiled, and the sale came to the door. The head of the gate guard also saw the comer, and smiled and motioned for his subordinates to come forward.

The two officers and soldiers stepped forward to stop them, and took the road guide of the two and looked at them casually. One asked, "Where do you come from?" What to do in the Daimyo's Mansion? ”

The old man asked the young man to look after the horses, and he stepped forward to answer. "Master Huijun, a little old man from Jiangnan, went to the north to sell horses and passed by here."

The officers and soldiers looked at the horses behind the old man, and said casually: "This is a lot of money, and you have to pay half a tax to enter the city." ”

When the old man heard the words of the officers and soldiers, his flesh ached, but he still took out half of the money. "A few military masters laughed!"

Who knew that the officer and soldier pushed at the old man, and said loudly: "You old man can't play tricks on us, I'm talking about half a dollar per horse." ”

was pushed by this officer and soldier coldly, and the old man couldn't stand on his feet and fell back. Wang Xin was close at this time, and took the first step to support the old man.

When the young man who was walking with the old man saw the officer and soldier move, his face flashed with anger, and he rushed over and grabbed the officer and soldier by the collar.

What if this was to beat the officers and soldiers, Wang Lun stepped forward to stop the young man and grabbed the young man's fist. I never thought that this young man still had some strength, Wang Lun didn't use his strength, and this young man's hands didn't move at all.

The old man stood up and nodded to Wang Xin in thanks. Seeing that his nephew was about to cause trouble again, he hurriedly stopped him. "San Lang, don't be reckless!"

Listening to the old man's words, the young man was indignant and snorted coldly at the officers and soldiers. The young man withdrew his hand and stood beside the old man, glanced at Wang Lun, and did not speak.

Each horse can earn three or five yuan by deducting taxes and fees, and the expenses and injuries on the road can be earned, and he will not pay half a yuan for this city.

The old man trembled and stepped forward to salute the officers and soldiers, and then said: "Master Jun, there are too many half-penetrated horses for each horse, and the little old man can't take it!" ”

The officer and soldier shook their heads like rattles, very horizontally. "If you don't pay, you won't be able to enter!"

When the young man heard this, he was about to step forward and use force, but was stopped by the old man. Then the old man stretched out his hand and saluted again, and said to the officers and soldiers; "This entry tax commission is too high, the military master is relaxed!"

Wang Lun, who was on the side, saw that the old man was a lot older and was still working so hard, so he helped and said: "There are already regulations for the city tax and commercial tax yamen, how can you sit on the ground and raise the price?" ”

The leading general saw that Wang Lun was standing for others, his face was not good, and he shouted: "Wang Lun! Don't meddle! ”

His voice made all the heroes lively, Wang Xin Du Qian hadn't moved, Jiao Ting and Han Bolong showed their whistle sticks one after another. "Your brother's name is what you can call me!"

The general was pointed at by Jiao Ting and Han Bolong's whistle sticks, and involuntarily took a step back. Meaning that he had lost face, he beckoned to surround Wang Lun and the others.

Wang Lun didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he stopped Jiao Ting and Han Bolong. He stretched out his hand and took out five taels of silver, and said with a smile: "It's a big deal, it's not good for anyone, buy this silver for a few brothers and eat it!" ”

Hearing Wang Lun's words, the general accepted it when he saw it, and stretched out his hand to take the silver, which was the most real in these years.

Wang Lun saw that the general had collected the money, and said, "This time, let the two horse merchants enter the city!"

The general swept the silver in his hand, looked at Wang Lun and said, "Let's go in!" ”

The old man should have been happy to be able to enter the city, but who knew that he would refuse. "Little Lao'er is not going to enter the city!"

The old man's words shocked everyone, and the generals led by him looked at Wang Lun and smiled silently.

Wang Lun could vaguely guess the old man's thoughts, and comforted: "Don't worry, the old man, I don't want you to pay back this money!" ”

Listening to Wang Lun's words, the old man's face turned red.

The young man who followed the old man complained: "Which one wants you to help!" ”

The old man glared at his nephew and saluted Wang Lun.

Wang Lun didn't care about this, and the two groups entered the Daimyo's Mansion together.

After entering the city, Wang Lun had the intention to buy two good horses from the old man, so he asked, "Do you want to sell these horses, old man?" In the next place, you need to buy two good horses. ”

When the old man heard that business had come to his door, he was very happy. But he was afraid that Wang Lun would kill him for the five taels of silver just now, so he said: "Little Lao'er's horse is to be sold, and I don't want to delay too long on the road and break a few horses." ”

Wang Lun didn't care about the old man's words, pointed to his two horses and said: "My two horses are also expensive, but they are not as strong as my husband's horses, and I am not afraid of my father's high price."

Without waiting for the old man's offer, the young man spoke first: "Two horses are only two hundred and twenty for you!" ”

The price was much lower than usual, and the old man's face changed.

Wang Lun was very satisfied with this price, and knew that the young man's offer was low, so he asked Wang Xin to take out two hundred and forty taels of silver and give it to the old man.

At this time, the old man was overjoyed and personally chose two of the best horses for Wang Lun.

The money and goods were begging, and Wang Lun gave it up. "If my husband has time to sell horses to Jeju and find Zhu Gui of Drunken Immortal Building, he will say that Wang Lun will let you go. Such a good horse, you should buy a few more! ”

The old man took note of Wang Lun's words and promised to go to Jeju if the horses could not be sold in the Daimyo's Mansion this time.

After separating from Wang Lun and others, the old man took his nephew and walked towards the Daimyo Mansion Horse Market. The old man said to his nephew as he walked, "San Lang! When we go out, we control our temper, and we pay attention to making money in business. ”

The young man was very respectful to his uncle and humbly taught. But the thought of earning Wang Lun's money made me unbearable. said: "We made too much money just now!" ”

The wind was strong in the north, and the old man coughed. Said helplessly: "My body is not as good as day by day, I just want to save more money to watch you marry a daughter-in-law!" ”

The young man was moved and helped the old man to drift away.
