Chapter 41: The Ambition of the Wolf Rider

Back in the mansion, Su Chen sent Su An to inquire about the news of Cai's family, Cai Yong did not live in Taishou Mansion, but borrowed to live in the post station in Jiuyuan County. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The direction of the post station is in the opposite direction to the Su house, so the two sides are not on the same road.

It wasn't until the third watch in the middle of the night that Su An came over late, and Su Chen, who was waiting anxiously, didn't wait for him to drink saliva, so he hurriedly asked, "Come on, how is everyone Cai?" ”

"Ahem!" Su An stared at it all night, but he didn't get a drop of water, grabbed the kettle on the table and took a few gulps, and then hurriedly replied: "Back to Gongzi, Cai's side was just a little frightened, and it was fine." ”

"That's good, that's good!" Hearing the news, one of his hearts finally returned to his stomach, and then he reacted again and asked, "Frightened?" Are you saying that Cai's family was also attacked? ”

"Yes!" Su An nodded and described: "It is said that when Gao Duwei led people over, the men in black had already surrounded the Cai family, but I don't know why, those people couldn't get close to Cai's carriage for a long time, and when Gao Duwei arrived, he led the army and killed the group of black-clothed people. ”

"Do you know if there are any living mouths?"

"No!" To say that Su An's work is still reliable, he learned the details from Gao Shun, so he rushed home, for fear that his son-in-law would not be able to answer his questions.

"yes, I see." He looked at Su An, who was covered in dust, and said: "I've worked hard for you tonight, but I have to work hard for you, before you rest, you have to arrange the guards in the house, tonight is different, let the guards on duty cheer up, don't lose your life in your sleep." ”

"Don't worry, Childe, I'm awake!"

"That's good, okay, I'm okay here, you go down first."

"No!"

After Su An went down, Su Chen punched the table in front of him, and the table broke in half.

This time, he was really angry, he didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant, and he dared to set up an ambush halfway, if it weren't for the master on his side, maybe he would have succeeded.

Especially when he just became Cai Yan's fiancé, the other party dared to attack his forbidden body, but this touched his reverse scales, at this moment, where did he not know that the person who helped him break through from Guo Wen's fantasy at the banquet was not Cai Yong.

Those black-clothed people couldn't get close to Cai Yong's carriage, presumably Cai Yong also used his spiritual power to arrange the enchantment, but I don't know why he didn't take the initiative to make a move.

This is what he doesn't know, in the face of so many black-clothed people besieging him, Cai Yong only has the power to protect himself, how can he fight back, he can hold on to Gao Shun to rush, it has already consumed seventy percent of his spiritual power, you must know that arranging such a large-scale enchantment, without the help of any magic weapons, its difficulty can be imagined.

Su Wei settled the affairs of the family and came to the hall, as soon as he entered the door, he suddenly exclaimed: "Chen'er, you actually broke through?" ”

"Huh?" His father's voice pulled him back from his fantasy to reality, this view, isn't it, his cultivation has broken through, and he has truly entered the realm of marrow washing.

"It's... What's going on? "How did he break through in a daze? It's a little weird.

Different from his doubts, Su Wei said excitedly: "Today is really a double happiness, Chen'er, you have become the son-in-law of the Cai family, this is a joy, today has broken through to the marrow washing period, this is another joy, double happiness, it seems that God really favors my Su family, we have to put on a good show when we worship our ancestors this year, thank you for the protection of our ancestors, my Su family has such glory." ”

Su Chen didn't take his father's words to heart, but wondered why he broke through in a daze, and he couldn't think of a name for himself after thinking about it, so he simply stopped pursuing it, and instead talked about tonight's night attack.

Unlike his reaction, his father didn't think that the Cui family did it, or that he thought that the Cui family didn't have such a big foundation and could send such two groups of masters to assassinate at the same time, maybe someone wanted the Cui family to take the blame, so he took advantage of the grudge between him and Cui Hao to make such a show.

"Didn't the Cui family do it? So who does my father think is behind today's assassination? Su Chen originally decided that it was the Cui family who did it, after all, the Cui and Su families had already secretly become opponents, not to mention that today he defeated Cui Hao, and it was not impossible for the other party to be angry.

However, Jiang is still old and spicy, and his father's analysis also calmed him down, let me ask if the main messenger behind the scenes who can send fifty assassins in the realm of the Skin Refining Period will be the Cui family of a mere Wuyuan County?

Think about it, if the Cui family really has such a strong strength, then why did he stop at Wuyuan County, I am afraid that he would have already developed from Luoyang.

What's more, the Cui family is just a side branch of the Boling Cui family, and it is the kind of follow-up side branch, which slowly rose by relying on the reign of the previous Taishou Cui Wei, and its rise time is still short, and it is impossible to cultivate such a group of masters.

Even if the Su family is a century-old family in Wuyuan County, the inherited heritage cannot cultivate fifty foundation building warriors, let alone a Cui family that was not as good as the Su family before, thinking about it this way, the Cui family is indeed unlikely.

So what if there is a shadow of the Taiyuan Wang clan behind it?

This assumption was also denied by Su Wei, Su Chen, as a person of later generations, may not be very clear about the methods of the family, but Su Wei knows deeply that the Taiyuan Wang family, a famous family in the world, will never use such means because of such trivial things as the jealousy of the younger generations.

If you want to send fifty assassins above the skin refining period, it must be the head of the family to nod in person, if you want to invite such a force to make a move, the price paid is immeasurable, at least ten thousand gold, such a large amount of money, it is not something that can be taken out casually, so it is impossible to Taiyuan Wang's means.

In this way, this puddle of water will become mixed, and for a while, the Su father and son can't analyze the reason, so they can only wait for Gao Shun to come tomorrow and then make plans.

The next day, the anxious Su Chen came directly to Gao Shun's mansion, for safety reasons, he not only brought Hao Meng and Cao Xing, but also brought ten family private guards to accompany him.

Since Su Jiu's business brought a lot of gold and silver to the family, after Su Chen discussed with his father, he gradually began to help the potential family private soldiers build a foundation, and so far, more than 20 people have successfully built a foundation and become a martial artist in the skin refining period.

With the support of sufficient forging bone powder and medicinal wine, once these people successfully build the foundation, it will only be a matter of time before they break through the Yijin period, but so far, all his means can only help them break through to the Yijin stage at most, and there is no way to go further.

These ten people are all warriors in the skin refining period, and some are even about to break through the bone forging period, under the training of Cao Xing and Hao Meng, they can be called the elite of the elite.

In his plan, at least a thousand Tsukiji warriors will be trained in the future, and then these 1,000 people will be trained by Gao Shun into an infantry phalanx and a cavalry phalanx, and by that time, the wolf cavalry may really be the strongest army in the world.

However, it is still far away to realize this ideal, and he is not in a hurry, he simply has enough time now, if there is no accident, the Yellow Turban Rebellion will break out in five years, as long as a thousand soldiers in the foundation building period are trained before the Yellow Turban breaks out, then he will have enough capital for the Su family to reap dividends in this war.

In the next five years, it is only necessary to train these 1,000 people into an infantry phalanx or cavalry phalanx before the princes discuss Dong, and the name of the wolf cavalry in that state will resound throughout the Han Dynasty and become the real strongest army in the world that overwhelms the Xiliang cavalry.

The strongest army in the world!

This goal is not small, it requires him to train at least two hundred foundation building warriors every year, and to train so many foundation building warriors, it will cost twenty thousand gold, to say the least, and this is still under the condition of 100% foundation building.

According to the previous statistics, with the assistance of the best Jiuyang Flower, the probability of success in building the foundation is about eighty percent, which means that it costs at least twenty-five thousand gold every year, and it almost takes such a large amount to maintain the cultivation and breakthrough of the next two hundred people, that is, fifty thousand gold.

50,000 gold per year, five years later, he will be able to have more than a thousand martial artists above the Skin Refining Realm, if it weren't for Su Jiu's strong ability to absorb gold, it would be almost impossible to realize this wish, but now Su Jiu is limited to production, and it can bring up to 100,000 gold to the Su family every year, so this expenditure is more than enough.

The limited production of Sujiu is mainly due to the lack of food, after all, food is a strategic resource, and the family will reserve enough grain to cope with the disaster year, so the food that can be purchased on the market is limited, and the output of Sujiu cannot go up.

There is a surplus of grain in the south of the Yangtze River, which can be transported to Bingzhou, which costs people to eat and chew along the way, and the price is not cheap, so this is not a good way.

In fact, Su Chen had already considered this problem, almost all the wasteland in Wuyuan County was bought by the Su family, and then recruited displaced people outside for reclamation, of course he didn't do any tuntian, because he didn't want to challenge the authority of the family before he grew up, and then be strangled in the cradle, but collected these displaced people as tenants and cultivated for the Su family.

The grain planted is not anything else, but sorghum, sorghum was not popularized in the Han Dynasty, although sorghum was cultivated in the Yellow River valley as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, but the real large-scale cultivation was after the Ming Dynasty, largely because sorghum can make wine.

As recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica": "It is planted in the north of Shu to prepare for grain shortage, and the surplus is cattle and horses, and it has been cultivated for 4,900 years." ”

In fact, sorghum is a good thing, it is suitable for cultivation in saline land, drought tolerant, and it is a rare cash crop for the already poor soil of Bingzhou, after all, corn is not in the Americas.

The residue of winemaking can also feed livestock and provide meat, and wine vinegar is not separated, sorghum can also make vinegar, sweet sorghum can also squeeze sugar, but the production of sorghum is still small, and the two industries of sugar and vinegar are not involved.

For an industry that can bring such great economic benefits, how could Su Chen not lay out it in advance.

But he is also a master who is allowed to enter but not to go out, watching the gold and silver flowing out like water in Baihuahua, his heart is not a taste, he should have started the horse business a long time ago, but because he couldn't open the situation before, so he put it on hold for the time being, but now he has a chance, but he has to figure out the matter in front of him, otherwise it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

To his disappointment, Gao Shun had no clue and could only investigate slowly, but it is said that after Wang Zhi heard about the assassination last night, he didn't say a word, as if he didn't know, and passed without mentioning it, but this made Su Chen suspicious, could it be that this old boy knew that it was boring?

But whether he knew it or not, it was impossible for Su Chen to ask him personally. After saying goodbye to Gao Shun, he went to the post station where Cai Yong was.

Before leaving, he reminded Gao Shun that the top priority now is to improve his strength, turn passive into active, now the enemy is in the dark, they are in the light, only if the strength is improved, can it be just in case.

Gao Shun said that he would be in retreat soon, and as for the investigation of the assassin, he could only let Su Wei check it himself, Su Chen said that it didn't matter, after all, it was important for him to break through.

When he came to the post station, he saw a beautiful shadow when he entered the door, perhaps because he had a reputation, Su Chen had an inexplicable affection for this fiancée who had never been in contact with him.

When Cai Yong saw him enter the door, he hurriedly beckoned him to sit down, and saw the two of them flirting with each other, with a smile on their faces, but they seemed to suddenly think of something, and frowned in an instant, shook their heads and sighed.
