Chapter 50: Preparing for Marriage

"Lao Cheng, what is the matter with you guys who are in such a hurry to find me back?" Zheng Bin shouted loudly as soon as he entered the door.

Cheng Lei didn't answer him, but teased him: "You can do it, Lao Zheng, I've learned to ride a horse in just a few days, it's not simple, it's not simple!" ”

Zheng Bin said angrily: "What's not easy about riding a horse!" ”

"This cleverness is about to catch up with me, you can tell me how simple you are!" Cheng Lei said with a smile.

"You said you called me back just to make fun of me? Hurry up and get down to business, you have nothing to do all day, and I still have a big mess on the construction site over there! Zheng Bin said glaring at Cheng Lei.

Cheng Lei saw that he couldn't tease him anymore, so he told Zheng Bin the truth that he was going to marry Qinglan. Zheng Bin kept letting out a sound of surprise and sighing while listening, and stood up when he heard the last lap on his thigh: "Lao Cheng, Lao Cheng, just now I said that you have nothing to do all day, but I didn't expect you to give me such a big thing in such a quick time!" ”

While talking, Zheng Bin paced in the room, and asked Cheng Lei for a cigarette and lit it: "Old Cheng, I think it's beautiful, you did this beautiful thing, which is tantamount to completely pulling the Tieji tribe to the point where it is inseparable from our interests." ”

"I said I would send someone to report on the cavalry of the Tieji tribe, and you told me not to worry about putting my heart in my stomach! It turns out that your kid has already been confident, Lao Cheng, you are not authentic, not authentic! But don't you have a crush on the daughter of the pastry shop owner, I think that little girl is very good-looking, what do you do now? ”

Cheng Lei sighed and said, "Alas, there is no way, for the benefit of our Lion King squadron, that matter ...... Alas, let's talk about it! ”

Zheng Bin joked to him: "You kid is really high-spirited this time, hey, by the way, tell me, how about the daughter of the leader of the Tieji tribe?" Pretty or not, how does it compare to the pastry shop owner's daughter? ”

Cheng Lei looked at the raging gossip fire in Zheng Bin's eyes, sneered and said: "Hmph, I won't tell you, you can figure it out yourself, it's boring!" But you have to hurry up and get down to business, prepare the dowry and clean up the camp, and get married to look like you're married, I'll go out and have a look! ”

Zheng Bin pointed to Cheng Lei's back and shouted: "Sample, don't you tell me that I can't ask someone else to ask, you kid still know how to be shy?" Oh no, is this TM you getting married or me getting married, I'll go and prepare things for you, you should be the shopkeeper? It turned out that you called me over just to be the shopkeeper, you come back to me, old Cheng ......" Zheng Bin chased to the door and looked out, Cheng Lei's figure was gone, he had to take pity on himself, and said in his heart that he was really bad fate, and he actually met such a top boss and partner!

Under Zheng Bin's arrangement, the camp became neat and clean in one day, and everything was in order. Red lanterns hung outside the camp gates and on the side of the camp road, and all the festive couplets and double happiness window flowers were ready. Cheng Lei didn't expect that the marriage customs in this world were so similar to their previous world.

As for the dowry, Zheng Bin bought a hundred high-grade war horses from the Dawang Horse Farm in Xicheng, each of which cost four Jinweik, which is three times the price of ordinary war horses, and can be said to be the best among war horses. Every horse that has been raised is fat and strong and very healthy, and they are all good horses that have just come of age, Cheng Lei wants to get one to ride by himself after seeing it.

In addition to these, there are also gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin discussed it, and added hundreds of ordinary war horses. These things alone cost more than 1,500 gold victors, which made Cheng Lei feel very painful. Later, Cheng Lei remembered that Dun Leha asked Duozan to get ammunition, so he sent people to the black market outside Vientiane City in the west overnight and spent more than 300 gold coins to buy the universal ammunition for the single-shot rifles of two large carriages.

However, how to go when greeting relatives has become a problem, Cheng Lei's horseback riding level is also a beginner's level. Zheng Bin rode back from the base for twenty kilometers, and the inner thighs of both legs were worn off, and when he thought of riding a horse to greet his relatives, Cheng Lei, Zheng Bin and the team members were grinning. This is really not a pleasant feeling, they would rather be beaten than be beaten all day long.

Just when Cheng Lei and Zheng Bin were worried about what they couldn't do, at this time, the sentry outside suddenly came to report that the young master of the Xingjiamen in Dongcheng asked to see him. Although they were bothering there with nothing to do, Xing Chenghui's son couldn't help but see him, so he ordered the sentry to invite him in.

As soon as he entered the door, Xing Junjie saluted and said, "Little nephew, please meet Mr. Cheng, Mr. Zheng." ”

Cheng Lei hurriedly helped him up and asked him to sit down: "The young master is really polite, you and I are no more than ten years old, how can we be commensurate with uncles and nephews!" ”

Xing Junjie said: "Before the little nephew went out, my father repeatedly told him that he and the two uncles were called brothers, so I must not lack etiquette in the next generation, after all, the little nephew will have to ask the two uncles to take care of him in the future!" ”

Cheng Lei glanced at Zheng Bin, both of them were a little helpless, why did this Xing Junjie suddenly change, become so knowledgeable and courteous, not as unstinting as before? Could it be that Xing Chenghui has changed his brain in such a short period of time, no, there is no such technology in this world! Even in their previous world, there would be no such powerful technology, otherwise the earth would have been in chaos a long time ago.

Xing Junjie saw the suspicious appearance of the two of them, so he smiled and said: "In the past, the little nephew was ignorant, so the two uncles laughed, and the younger brother will live up to everyone's expectations in the future, please rest assured that the two uncles are relieved." My father is ready to hand over the position of the head of the Xing family to me, he is an old man and retired to the rivers and lakes, I still want to cooperate with the two uncles in the future, I don't know what the two uncles think? ”

Cheng Lei said: "If this is true, I still congratulate the young master on becoming the master of the door soon, but I don't know if the master of the Xing door is unwell or what, why did he step down in such a hurry?" ”

"It's not convenient for me to tell you two of you now, but I'll ask two Haihan ......"

Cheng Lei waved his hand and said: "No, no, no, it's nothing, it's nothing, I'm just asking casually." I wonder if the young master is here today? ”

"Send gas." Xing Junjie said confidently. It seems that he knows everything about the Lion King Squadron's urgent shortage of gas, otherwise he wouldn't be so confident.

Cheng Lei's expression changed greatly, and as Xing Junjie expected: "What, the gasoline came so quickly?" ”

Xing Junjie said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted the B-shaped caravan that left for the West half a month ago to bring you back gasoline, but I'm afraid it will take more than half a year for them to come back, after all, there are five or six hundred carriages along the way, and the distance back and forth is so far, even if you trek through mountains and rivers, it will take five or six months to come back at the earliest, and won't the daylilies be cold by then?" ”

"As soon as I got the news that Mr. Cheng was going to get married, I didn't come over right away, our oil mine uses mining machinery driven by gasoline engines, so I directly asked people to load 500 liters of gasoline! Or according to the original price you and my father set, don't help the poor, I will only do this kind of thing in the snow! Xing Junjie said proudly.

Cheng Lei asked solemnly at this time: "Young master, does your father know about this matter, if he doesn't know, we really don't dare to take this batch of gasoline." After all, the head of this Xing family is your father, so ......"

Xing Junjie smiled: "Mr. Cheng, what are you talking about, of course my father knows about this, and he is very supportive of my approach." Now my father has given me a small half of the power, so I can still do this kind of thing, Lord, don't worry! After saying that, he took his leave and left, not dragging his feet at all.

After sending Xing Junjie away, looking at the gasoline barrels that had just been delivered in the camp, Cheng Lei said: "Lao Zheng, tell me, why is this kid so capable as if he has suddenly changed as a person?" ”

Zheng Bin said with a smile: "Maybe he deliberately pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger before." Have you forgotten that the novels we read before have such stories of the rich second generation pretending to be pigs and eating tigers? But now that we've got gasoline, we don't have to worry about horseback riding! ”

Cheng Lei suddenly thought that Duke Duozan was so worried that he would unite with the Tieji tribe, and his position would not be stable. So is Xing Chenghui also particularly worried that his marriage will be detrimental to his business and have an impact? It must be like this, otherwise a person like Xing Chenghui would not have sent him so much gasoline for no reason.

Xing Chenghui, the overlord of Dongcheng and even Yinta, who no one dared to provoke, also had a fear of himself, and he felt very proud when he thought about Cheng Lei. With all this gasoline, they don't have to worry about riding a horse that grinds their thighs. Then Cheng Lei sent people to the base to give all the migrant workers a holiday, leaving only the Night Lion team to be stationed there, mainly to prevent any ill-intentioned people from making trouble and destroying the machinery that built the city wall.

All the people in the War Eagle Squad returned to the city to follow Cheng Lei to greet their relatives, after all, this was a marriage with a large tribe of tens of thousands of people, so of course they should pay special attention to it. For Zheng Bin and the team members, this is the first time that their squadron leader has gotten married, and of course it is also a particularly important thing, so everyone's mood is very high.

The chariots in the team are all hung with red flowers and color stripes, and they are also pasted with the word "happy", how to say that they are also wedding cars, of course, they must be dressed up beautifully. The chariots have been short of fuel for a long time, and after filling up the fuel, Cheng Lei tried it, and these gasolines are still very good in other aspects except that the power is slightly insufficient compared to the previous oil!

Pan Jin and Yin Kaicheng both competed to be Cheng Lei's best man, and Li Changcheng also put down the training of the recruit company and came over to shout that he should also be the best man. was pushed back by Zheng Bin's words: "This best man is mine, if any of you fight for me to punish him to run in circles, don't think about going to greet your relatives tomorrow!" ”

The three of them all drooped their heads in frustration, but they were saved by Cheng Lei's words: "Lao Zheng, what do you have to do, as soon as you are married, you still want to be my best man, get out of the way, just like that, all three of you in Kaesong will be my best man, Lao Zheng, what should you do!" ”
