Chapter 668: Clues
Linjin, as the name suggests, is close to the original Jin Kingdom. The young man of Linjin Fu is a very hospitable person, and he likes to make friends with the outside world. Although he has always lived in the small place of Linjin, he knows all the major events in the world, especially the famous people, and he can count them like treasures. The young prince has money, and even the county order in Linjin has to give three points to him, so all those who come to the Jin, but anyone who thinks he has some ability must visit the young prince.
Su Ren's team rested overnight on the edge of Linjin City, and when they got up the next day, they found that there was suddenly a large group of people in the camp. The men were well-dressed, and each of them carried a plate in his hand, with copper coins, silver ingots, and even horseshoe gold.
Ying Guangji came to Su Ren's side: "I have a rough estimate, and the sum of these money is no less than three hundred gold. ”
"Who is so generous?"
Win Guang Ji Nunu mouthed, and motioned to Su Ren to look at the middle-aged man who was talking to Han Qing. This person is dressed in a gray cloth robe, and although the Jinxian crown on his head has no beams, it is inlaid with two pearls the size of pigeon eggs on both sides, which is awkward to look at.
"Who is this? Like a rich man! ”
Ying Guangji said with a smile: "Linjin is rich and has a young father, and all the miles are his, it is said that there are hundreds of servants in the family, and there are no less than fifty servants who sweep the floor, which shows how big his family should be." ”
"Young Father? I haven't heard of it, what is he doing here? ”
"What else can I do? Didn't you say it last night, who would dislike having a lot of money? Mr. Jia Su, the famous No. 1 businessman in the world, passed by, how could he not come to visit? People have given a heavy gift, does Mr. Su have to carry one or two? ”
As he was talking, Han Qing walked over with the young man. Standing in the distance just now, Su Ren didn't see the appearance of the young duke clearly, and was startled when he arrived in front of him. It's not ugly, it's too ugly, ugly and incomparable. Sometimes I think it's strange, but all rich and powerful people don't look very good, either with pockmarked faces or pits on their faces. Especially those nouveau riche, I don't know if God is giving them money to compensate for their lack of appearance?
"Young Duke Ji meets Mr. Su!" As soon as they met, the young prince made a big salute, respectful and humble.
Su Ren wore his hair loose, his face was not washed or combed, and the tone in his mouth could smoke people to death when he spoke. Looking at the face of the three hundred gold, Su Ren smiled: "Mr. Ji is polite, you are an elder, I should salute." ”
The young prince hurriedly supported Su Ren: "Mr. Su is polite, although the old man is a few years older, compared to Mr. Su, it is like Haoyue and fireflies, which is not worth mentioning." ”
In the open space in the middle of the camp, there was a table and four chairs, and Su Ren, Ying Guangji, Han Qing, and the young prince drank tea and chatted. Although this young prince is not very good-looking, he has a good conversation, and he is also very insightful in some things, which makes Su Ren a little surprised, and it also makes Su Ren's vigilance against this person even more. It is very dangerous to deal with people like the young prince who have a lot of money and are not stupid, this is the experience summed up over many years.
The chat was naturally nothing to say, and soon talked about this trip to Yanmen. Regarding Su Ren's going to do business with the Huns, the young prince was particularly active, and even said between the lines that he had someone among the Huns, but there was no famous word about the young prince.
"The old man has a little money in his family, I hope to help Mr. Su, and ask Mr. Su to accept it!" Ji Shaogong waved his hand, and the few housekeepers holding the plates hurriedly came over.
Su Ren smiled: "With so much money, Mr. Ji is not afraid that there will be no return?" You also know that this business is not guaranteed to only make money and not lose money! Three hundred gold is not a decimal number. ”
Ji Shaogong smiled slightly: "Who doesn't know that Mr. Su is the first businessman in the world, as long as it is something that Mr. fancies, there has never been a time when he misses, although the old man lives in Linjin City, he has also heard of the things in the world, although Mr. Su takes it, if he loses it, he will be treated as the blessing of not doing business with Mr. Su." ”
"If that's the case, then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"
"Huh! Mr. Su is really heroic, thank you Mr. for your success! ”
Su Ren would never let go of the meat sent to his mouth, although three hundred gold is a lot, it is not a lot of money in Su Ren's eyes, but it is also a reason to spit out the meat. With a wave of his hand, Shi Bao immediately ordered someone to take the plate away.
"Mr. Ji trusts him, and he also tells the truth, I really don't have much confidence in going to the Huns, if it really comes to that point, I hope Mr. Ji will not blame."
"Mr. Su is polite again, from now on the two of us are one, with Mr. Su's talent and popularity, there is nothing that cannot be done in the world, although the old man is dull, but he also knows that Mr. Su had an intersection with the Xiongnu prince when he was in Luoyang, and this alone can gain a firm foothold in the Xiongnu!" The young prince drank a sip of water: "It's not a secret, the old man also knows a few people in the Huns, if Mr. Su needs it, he should serve himself." ”
"Oh? Mr. Ji still knows the Huns? Han Qing pretended to be surprised.
Ji Shaogong hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, Mr. Han misunderstood, the people he knows are all Han Chinese, but they just stay outside the Saiwai." ”
"Han Chinese? Although many Han people were plundered by the Xiongnu, I have never heard of Han people being able to get ahead, and if they were ordinary Han people, I am afraid that ......"
Ji Shaogong smiled: "Mr. Han is surprised! Lao Yu likes to make friends with the world's heroes, you should have heard of it, and this Linjin is the only way out of the jam, and the people you know will naturally not be ordinary people, please rest assured that Mr. Su and you are here. ”
Han Qing wanted to ask again, Su Ren smiled and said: "This is very good, although I know Yu Dan, but it is impossible to go to Yu Shan when I first arrive outside the Saiwai, since Mr. Ji has someone I know, can I recommend it?" ”
Ji Shaogong arched his hand and said: "Mr. Su, forgive me, although the old man has a relationship with those people, it is not easy to make decisions for others, but those people said that as long as Mr. Su needs them, they will try their best to help!" ”
"That's good! That's more precious than three hundred gold! Come, I salute Mr. Ji, Mr. Ji is really my Su Ren's nobleman! ”
As he spoke, everything was put in order. Politely rejecting the young prince's insistence on letting them stay for two more days, Su Ren and the others re-embarked on the road to the north. Talking with the young prince, Su Ren seemed to understand something, as for whether it still needs time to verify. The young prince had been standing on the side of the road watching Su Ren and the others walk away, when a gust of wind blew, and the dust mixed with the period covered the figure of the team.
He was accompanied by an ox cart, which was parked outside the camp. If it weren't for the two coughs coming from inside, no one would have noticed that there were people inside. Uncle Yao leaned on the car, gently lowered the corner of the curtain, and hurriedly took a sip of water. Since the beginning of the year, he has had problems with his body, always coughing, and many doctors have been asked to check on them and say that they are incompetent, and no one can be sure what it is.
The young man got into the car, and when he saw that Uncle Yao was coughing and was about to lose his breath, he hurriedly sat next to him and helped stroke his back: "Mr. Yao, are you okay?" ”
"Ahem, cough, cough......" coughed for a long time, and Uncle Yao stopped coughing, his whole face turned pale, and he leaned on the car gang and panted: "It's okay, it's old!" Su Ren didn't see anything, right? ”
Ji Shaogong nodded: "No, as Mr. expected, this Su Ren really loves money, agreed to my request, and thanked me for introducing him." ”
Uncle Yao took another sip of water, and his throat was a little more comfortable: "You still have to be careful, the defeat of Chang'an is that we underestimated Su Ren, this time we must be careful." ”
The young prince nodded again and again: "No!" Sir, do you want to send someone to deliver the letter now, so that Childe and the others can get ready? ”
Uncle Yao shook his head: "What should be done has been done, doing more will cause Su Ren's suspicion, don't worry about us, son, you can send someone to send a letter to the king, and ask him to beware of Su Ren and Yu Dan meeting, so as not to cause trouble." ”
The young prince said contemptuously: "It's not that serious, right? The king is determined to win, although Yu Shan is the prince, he is not liked by Shan Yu, Su Ren can change if he goes? ”
Uncle Yao glanced at the young prince, and there was a fine light in his eyes. The young prince was taken aback, hurriedly took a step back, and knelt down at Uncle Yao's feet: "No, the villain will do it!" ”
"Ahem, cough, cough......" There was another violent cough, and when I heard it, I knew that the man's time was short.
The further north you go, the stronger the wind becomes, and the cold wind blowing from the Loess Plateau carries the cold air and the sand and dust. Su Ren covered his mouth and nose with a black cloth, although it didn't look good, the effect was not bad. The others naturally followed suit, and soon the entire team was dressed up like Su Ren. Although this can withstand the wind and sand, it brings problems to speech, and the voice is too small to be understood like humming.
Ying Guangji used a piece of red cloth, which looked like a belly pocket in appearance. This became Su Ren's laughing stock: "If you like a woman, you like a woman, and you tie a woman's belly pocket to your face, is it interesting to show it so blatantly?" ”
Ying Guangji glared at Su Ren: "I like it, can you manage it?" You don't want to get one yet! ”
"Humph! I'm not as ** as you! Say, it's the girl's? I know that the women on the plateau never use these things. ”
"Then you can't take care of it, you still have to think more about your own affairs, in my opinion, that young prince is not like a good person, three hundred gold to a person who has never met, who will believe it?"
"Hehe, I'm so capable, you're red-eyed, right?"
"Red-eyed? I'm afraid that you will have a life to take the lifeless flower! Ying Guangji leaned into Su Ren's ear: "Do you really believe in that young prince so much?" ”
"It's better than you, the remnants of the previous dynasty, right? They are serious Han people. ”
"Humph! Good intentions are not rewarded! Ying Guangji was squeezed by Su Ren and lost interest in speaking, and turned around to go back to the carriage. The wind and sand outside are too big, and his skin has become rough after staying on the plateau for more than a year.
Looking at Ying Guangji's angry back, Su Ren laughed: "Little gold, why are you walking so slowly?" I have to go to Taiyuan City tonight, I don't want to eat sand anymore, let's go to the city to live! ”
