Luo Kaixian's meeting with Ding Kui is actually very interesting, saying that a chance encounter is actually inevitable, talking about small talk but really not leisurely, if you talk about negotiations, the identities of both sides on the surface are not important members of the court, and they can't even mention the qualifications for negotiation.

But the two of them said very little about private matters, most of them were family and country affairs, which is very intriguing.

Others don't know, at least when Lao Ding Kui returned to the old mansion at night, he didn't stop all night, and in the first half of the night, he brought his old son to the front of him to teach, and in the second half of the night, he couldn't sleep and tossed and turned for half a night, just to think about the 'Wei Shiro' who came into contact during the day, and everything this 'Wei Shiro' said.

In Lao Ding Kui's eyes, the person who called himself 'Wei Shilang' himself had a lot of doubts about him, of course, he was not sure that Wei Shilang was Luo Kaixian, but thought that this 'Wei Shilang' was the real envoy of the Lingzhou Mission, after all, as far as he knew, the so-called envoy Alki had been busy with internal affairs and had not appeared in public.

And what made Lao Ding Kui's heart entangled was the words that 'Wei Shilang' said.

As a veteran nobleman who has experienced the war and the entanglement of power, Lao Ding Kui knows very well that although the number of Lingzhou missions is small, it is far from what Xingyang can handle. As an old soldier, he was not intimidated by the combat power shown by the mission, but he was not willing to transfer troops to fight with the mission in this Xingyang City, in the final analysis, there is only one reason, although Xingyang is not as good as Kaifeng Mansion, but it is the high-grade porcelain that his old man lives in, and the Lingzhou Mission is just a poor broken clay pot from outside, and the high-grade porcelain collides with the broken clay pot, who loses and who earns?

In addition, he is not without hesitation about the tough attitude and words of 'Weishiro'. In fact, when he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, what came to his mind the most was the overly calm face of 'Eishiro'.

Old Ding Kui is in the Xingyang Xungui circle, and it is not for nothing that he is called the old monster of the Ding family, and a pair of eyes that recognize people is his greatest strength, but he can't see through the cold and hard expression of 'Wei Shilang'. If it is said that he has not seen a person who has a hard face, but he did not find the slightest sign of weakness on the face of 'Wei Shiro'.

So, the question is? What is the confidence of this 'Wei Shiro'? With that mission of 400 men?

Old Ding Kui tossed and turned on the bed for a night, and he didn't figure it out.

When Tianming got up, he made a decision - to go to Kaifeng Mansion for a trip, as for the confusing guys in the Lingzhou Mission, who likes to deal with whom, anyway, his old Ding family is not mixed.

The top priority, the most important thing is to send this inexplicable mission to Kaifeng Mansion, otherwise his old man will not want to stop this Spring Festival.

There is also a promise about the 'tooth man', the old Ding Kui didn't take it seriously at all, and his old man's conclusion was that if he went to Kaifeng Mansion this time, he would be to bring the younger generation, and then later? The sky is high and the water is long, and it is difficult to say when you will see you next time.

So, on the second day of chatting in the Welcome Building, almost the most famous old monster of the Ding family in Xingyang City took an ox cart to Kaifeng Mansion.

……

Going back to Luo Kaixian, since he met with Ding Kui, the old proprietor of Fuguiju, he has fallen into a situation of idleness.

In addition to chatting with the two little ladies and rolling a Song-style wooden bed, the rest of the things that need him are only some trivial things, such as receiving the food delivered from the space every day, listening to the report of the situation from Kaifeng Mansion once a day, and asking if there are any accidents every day...... These things sound like a lot, but in fact, it only takes him an hour to sum up.

Because there are too many specific things, such as reviewing and screening the details of the unransomed captives, receiving their families, and disposing of the most vicious ones among them; For example, the details of the transaction with the Shi Guo family and the local general judge He Shouqing; For example, negotiations with local merchants in Xingyang, especially large grain producers; For example, the trivial things of daily soldiers' food, shelter and training...... There are a lot, but all of them are in the hands of his subordinates, and he doesn't have to bother dealing with them at all.

Luo Kaixian, who was idle, wanted to find something to do for himself, but what could he do in the here and now?

On the fourth day after the Yingbin Meeting, after listening to the messenger sent by Helton from Kaifeng Mansion, Luo Kaixian ordered someone to find Alki and Antiano together, "Alki, how are those captives handled?" ”

"Returning to the general, all the people of the Shiguo family have been redeemed, and the other nine people have also been redeemed at a high price, and there are twenty-seven people who have been found guilty of bad deeds because they have been testified, and after verification, the prisoners have been executed, and there are thirty-seven people who are willing to defect to us, and there are twenty-three people who have found their families with the help of the Shiguo family, and the families of the remaining fourteen have not yet arrived......," Alki replied seriously.

"Huh? How is the number different from the previous statistics? Seems like too much? ”

"Yes, Lord, to this day, there are thirty-three more in all...... For we have been tempted for the past few days, and many of them have been captured in these four days......"

"Good!" Luo Kai praised first, and then asked, "How did the corpse of the executed person be disposed of?" ”

Orji replied: "According to the Lord's instructions a few days ago, I handed it to He Shouqing, the judge of Xingyang Tong!" ”

Luo Kai pondered for a moment and ordered: "In this way, Alki, you can find someone who writes neatly, write a few big-character notices and post them at the entrance of the outer wall, the content...... Just write ...... Whoever comes in uninvited, die! ”

"Obey, Lord!" Olki agreed.

Antiano on the side proposed: "General, this ...... Notice, should I discuss it with the innkeeper? ”

"Not necessarily! Guarding the safety of the guests should be the duty of the inn, but now that the thieves have entered the wall, it is benevolent and righteous not to trouble them, so why discuss? Luo Kaixian categorically vetoed it, but after the words came out, he felt that his attitude was a little too blunt, and instead said: "However, Antiano, what you said is also reasonable, tomorrow you will send someone to inform the shopkeeper and the general judge He Shouqing, this matter is not allowed to be questioned by them!" ”

"Obey!"

"How much food hasn't been shipped yet?"

Antiano took out a sheepskin notebook from his robe, looked through it, and then replied: "The amount promised by the Lord and Shi Guo has all been in place, and the grain transported by He Shouqing is still twenty percent, and the other 23,000 stone of grain that helped to contact has been paid as a deposit, and it is expected to be delivered in two days......

After calculating it in his heart, he raised his eyes and looked at the sky outside the window, Luo Kaixian said: "It's about the end of the afternoon, Antiano, you send someone to He Shouqing later, and ask him to order someone to speed up the delivery of grain, and it is best to finish it before dark today...... Well, you can consider giving some copper coins as a reward to the person who transports the grain, and the amount is up to you. ”

Antiano did not answer immediately, but asked with a little hesitation: "Lord, the two thousand three hundred stone grain will be transported in half a day...... Time is short, why can't we wait until tomorrow? ”

"Because...... I'm going to leave for Kaifeng Mansion early tomorrow morning! Luo Kaixian gave a straight answer, and then explained: "As for the grain merchants you contacted through He Shouqing, let them transport the grain to Kaifeng Funan Manor, and pay the consumption and freight on the way at that time!" ”

"Understood, Lord! I'm going to find someone to inform He Shouqing! Antiano answered, and turned to walk out.

"Slow, busy, I still have something to say!" Luo Kai hurriedly shouted.

Antiano, who has a lively temperament, hurriedly turned around again, "Hey, ...... the Lord"

Luo Kaixian didn't bother to deal with this guy, and after glaring at it, he said to the two people: "Tomorrow, I'll take a song of people to go first, and now I'll confirm the personnel...... Well, just Glass's song, and the captives who returned to him are also training under him, right? I took them all with me, including the families of the captives...... Do you two have any questions? ”

"General, and the ......families of the fourteen captives," Orki reminded.

"Those people are easy to do, go back and send someone to send them away once, or when you two go to Kaifeng Mansion, take them with you!"

Antiano also asked: "General, if you want to go to Kaifeng Mansion, what is the schedule of me and Olki and the three hundred people?" ”

"You stay here for two more days, if the officials of Song Guohonglu Temple can't come, don't wait any longer, let Jin Qian leave a guide for you, and go straight to Kaifeng Mansion Manor!" When it comes to the details, Luo Kai has already calculated it, "There are still ...... Alki, the parchment scroll handed over to you before is a letter of state, if you see the envoys greeted by the Song Kingdom, just hand it over to them, it is estimated that the day after tomorrow at the latest, the envoys of the Song Kingdom will arrive, your itinerary is still two days later, don't listen to the Song people's ...... Well, and there is also the question of where to live in Kaifeng Mansion, which I asked Helton earlier, Song officials usually place their missions on Waiguan Street near Honglu Temple...... As for the security matters in the future, do you need to remind me again? ”

"Understand, kill the Lord, those who have sinned against me!" Alki and Antiano shouted almost at the same time.

Luo Kai nodded first, this is the subordinate he needs, three hundred guards, I dare not say that each one is ten, at least not panic in battle is the most basic quality.

After giving all the details, Antiano turned around and went out to get busy, and Alki took advantage of Luo Kaixian's failure to return to the backyard, approached him and asked softly: "Lord, the grain has been transported in the past few days, and I have not seen it piled up in the house, let alone transported out...... The Fu Guiju shopkeepers and the surrounding Song people privately discussed where we hid the grain...... It is rumored that we Lingzhou people are all monsters, and everyone has to eat at least ten stone of grain every day......"

"Well......" Listening to some ridiculous rumors, looking at the strange expression on Olki's face, Luo Kaixian held back the idea of laughing, waved his hand and said easily: "Whatever people say, we are not their grandmothers, we don't need to explain to anyone!" ”

Alki continued to be busy with a strange face, and the rest of Luo Kaixian stood in the courtyard, feeling a burst of relaxation, and also felt a fighting spirit surging in his chest - Kaifeng Mansion, what should the most prosperous city in this era look like?
