Episode 9: A trip to Sioux House

In fact, the deal Gao Yun made with Liu Xu, except for those thieves, I am afraid that Gao Yun dared to do it himself. Because these are official grains after all, if you don't know that the Yellow Turban Uprising is coming, then this grain is equivalent to buying it for the imperial court.

But it is precisely because he knows that the Yellow Turban Uprising is coming, Gao Yun has no fear, who will be able to check the accounts at that time, and these grains are not arranged as he says he wants.

After leaving the county office, Gao Yun explained to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei inside and out, and the two of them suddenly realized, so shocked that even such a calm person as Guan Yu even picked a thumb up, and what Gao Yun admired was the five-body throw.

Even so, Gao Yun couldn't help but guard against Liu Xu's fraud and sold the goods to two companies. Therefore, it is better to arrange a few capable nursing homes and secretly keep an eye on the official warehouse.

Because he knew that he was going to Su's house for a banquet tomorrow, after returning home, Gao Yun told Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to rest early and go back to his room to sleep.

The next day, Gao Yun was dressed in a white brocade robe, holding a feather fan, wearing a long crown, a white jade belt around his waist, and soap brocade boots under his feet. Yu'er was wearing a brocade purple lined fairy skirt, thirteen pearls wrapped in her hair, and a red gold crested hairpin on her hairpin. The two of them rode the most luxurious four-horse horse-drawn brocade horn carriage to Su Mansion for a banquet.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei opened the way in front, the two of them had the same brocade robe, and they rode a high-headed horse, majestic; The honor guards of twelve people are clustered in two columns in front of and behind the carriage, all of them are big men with tigers and bears, swords, axes and axes are generally tall and short, soapy clothes and trousers, animal skins and waists, brave and fierce.

This group of people was mighty, passing through the official road and driving out of the county seat of Luxian County, attracting pedestrians to stop and watch along the way.

Su Mansion is located in the north of Zhuo County, the architecture is exquisite, and the momentum is more magnificent than Gaofu. Su Shuang knew that Gao Yun was coming, so he brought his wife and daughter Su Su and greeted them outside the door early.

Seeing that Gao Yun and his party were majestic and awe-inspiring, Su Shuang and the others couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

When they arrived at the door of Sufu, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei got off the horse together, each grabbed a corner of the car curtain, lifted it up, Gao Yun helped Yu'er get out of the car, and the two bowed down together to greet Su Shuang and his wife: "The little nephew Gao Yun (nephew and daughter-in-law Yu'er) visited Su Shibo and Aunt Su, and wished the two elders a long life and good health."

It turned out that when Old Man Gao was alive, the Gao family and the Su family and Zhang Shiping's family had dealings, so Gao Yun called Su Shuang Shibo.

"Oh, good nephew, it's windy outside, please come inside and talk." Su Shuang and his wife hurriedly returned the salute and invited Gao Yun and his party into the house.

Since Su Su knew that Gao Yun was coming, she was looking forward to it with joy every day, but when she saw Yu'er like a flower like jade at this time, she felt very lost in her heart, and her face was stunned.

But Gao Yun and Yu'er naturally couldn't be rude, and went forward to greet Su Su together. Only then did Su Su come back to his senses and hurriedly return the salute.

Su Shuangled Gao Yun and his entourage to the front hall, the banquet had been set up, and everyone was seated separately. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are Gao Yun's sworn brothers, so naturally they sit at the same table with Gao Yun. Su Shuang also set up another banquet in the outer hall to entertain other entourage, coachmen, maids, etc.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and Gao Yun asked Guan Yu to take out a small box and put it on the table, and said to Su Shuang: "The little nephew came in a hurry, he didn't have time to prepare a gift, be careful, don't dislike the old uncle."

After Gao Yun finished speaking, he opened the box casually, revealing a wooden table clock inside, needless to say that this was Gao Yun's handwriting.

In fact, since Gao Yun received the invitation, he was worried about what gift to give Su Shuang. Since it is a request for others, it is very important whether this gift can impress the other party.

But Su Shuang's family is rich and rich, and the gold and silver treasures may not be eye-catching, Gao Yun came up with such an idea after a series of meditations, and rushed to make a winding elm clock as a gift for several days, which can be regarded as applying what he has learned.

But Su Shuang and the others had never seen such a thing, and they were all at a loss, "Virtuous nephew, what is this?" Su Shuang asked suspiciously.

"Oh, this one is called 'non-stop running', with these two hands, you can know the time accurately, I'll show a few of you." Because the word "Zhong" is avoided in this era, Gao Yun casually fabricated a name.

After Gao Yun finished speaking, he turned the clockwork of the wooden clock, pointed to the twelve hours on it, and explained them to Su Shuang and the others one by one. After everyone listened, they all applauded.

"This treasure of the virtuous nephew is very exquisite, it is too valuable, I..., how can I accept such an expensive gift from the virtuous nephew." Although Su Shuang said that he didn't dare to ask for it, he was reluctant to put it down when he held it in his hand, which showed that he liked it quite much.

"Shibo doesn't have to be polite, please accept it, since the little nephew brought it, how can there be any reason to bring it back." In fact, in Gao Yun's opinion, this thing is worth two yuan at best, if you can really buy Su Shuang with this rough thing, it will really make a lot of money.

As soon as Su Shuang heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows, "Oh, this..., this..., since the virtuous nephew said so, then I will be disrespectful, thank you virtuous nephew."

Gao Yun looked at Su Shuang's expression and knew that he had been completely taken down by himself emotionally, but Gao Yun did not immediately express his intentions, but first tried to test the words, this is Gao Yun's consistent routine, the more information you know, the more you can be sure.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Gao Yun saw that Su Shuang had almost drunk it, so he began to knock on the side.

"The little nephew heard that Su Shibo and Zhang Shibo have been in the horse business all the year round, and often walk between Middle-earth and the northern barbarian states.

Su Shuang smiled and said: "Hehe, thank you for your kindness, in fact, it is still very peaceful from Zhuojun to the north, and the road is smooth, so the virtuous nephew doesn't have to worry too much about me."

"Oh, that's good, since the road is smooth, how can Shibo run ten or eight times a year, right? That's pretty objective." Gao Yun found out the road conditions and began to explore the trip.

Su Shuang shook his head, "Virtuous nephew, I don't know, this road is indeed smooth, and it only takes three or two months to run back and forth." But it's easy to sell horses, but it's not so easy to sell. If you come in and don't have a buyer, you have to put on forage to feed, and I'm afraid you'll lose money after a long time. Most of the horses on the grassland are good horses with good leg strength, although this kind of horse is good, but the price is also expensive, and there are not many buyers. And we sell mainly those horses that can pull the neng, most of these bad horses are used for carrying or farming, the price is cheap, the market is wide, but the supply is small, we run two times a year at most more than 2,000 horses, how can we use ten trips and eight trips."

As soon as the amount of this wine arrived, Su Shuangke couldn't control his mouth, and told Gao Yun in detail inside and out.

Gao Yun smiled, "According to what Shibo said, the price of these good horses must be much lower than the horses purchased by Shibo." After finding out the itinerary and source of goods, Gao Yun began to inquire about the price of goods again.

"No, these bad horses are of little use on the grassland, they can be bought for only fifteen or six hundred dollars each, but those good horses are different, the general ones are more than three times, and the best ones are more than one gold."

"Oh..., that's a pity." Gao Yun asked about the situation, and began to calculate in his heart, of course, what he calculated was not the profits of these good and bad horses, but his own manpower and purchasing power.

Through this period of understanding, Gao Yun has become very clear about the currency of this era. At this time, the main currency was five baht, and when the amount was particularly huge, it was often converted into gold, and the conversion ratio was that one gold was equal to five thousand yuan, that is, five yuan.

Gao Yun wants to equip elite troops, so he naturally has to buy good horses, according to what Su Shuang said, plus other expenses, a horse is about one gold, Gao Yun feels that with his own financial resources, there is not much pressure to buy three thousand.

Gao Yun thought for a while and said to Su Shuang: "A few days ago, a friend who was a local official occasionally chatted with his little nephew, talking about buying 3,000 good horses, and bidding 6,700 for each horse, but the little nephew didn't know anything about the horse business, and wanted to ask Shibo, can this business be done?" ”

"It's done, it's too good, this one, to say the least, there are five or six million dollars. If the virtuous nephew is interested, he might as well come with us, those Donghu people are familiar with us, and they can also talk about the price for the virtuous brother at that time."

Su Shuang originally wanted to thank Gao Yun for saving his daughter, but now he received a big gift from Gao Yun, and he naturally felt ashamed in his heart. I heard that Gao Yun wants to buy a good horse, and it will not affect his own supply of goods, just to be a favor, which can be regarded as a reward for Gao Yun.

"The little nephew is really grateful, the little nephew respects Shibo with a cup, if this business can be successful, the little nephew will not forget Shibo's kindness." Gao Yun knew that the vast grassland was sparsely populated, and if he didn't have Su Shuang with him, he might not be able to find the tribe in a year and a half.

"Huh! What are you talking about, what are you and I talking about, come! We drank this toast."

Su Shuang felt that he had finally found some balance in his heart, and his expression also rose.

This banquet was originally for Su Su to thank Gao Yun, but Su Su didn't say a word from the beginning of the banquet to the present. She didn't even dare to raise her eyes to look at Gao Yun, or rather, she didn't dare to look at the jade beside Gao Yun.

In fact, Gao Yun didn't dare to look at Su Su from beginning to end, he knew that falling in love with a woman who rejected him would make him miserable, and he was afraid that too much contact with Su Su would make him unable to extricate himself. So he tried his best to focus on Yu'er, just to cut off this feeling.

But the two of them can't even understand each other's thoughts, let alone others. Since it was to thank Gao Yun, Su Shuang naturally wanted Su Su to toast Gao Yun.

Su Su couldn't disobey his father's order, so he had to stand up with the wine cup, but he didn't dare to raise his head, and said timidly: "Su Su thanked Brother Gao for his rescue, and asked Brother Shi to drink this cup."

At this point, Gao Yun couldn't avoid it anymore, so he had to stand up and say, "Miss Su is too polite, I'm ashamed to accept kindness."

After speaking, he went to pick up the wine cup in Su Su's hand, but accidentally touched Su Su's finger. Just this touch, Su Su didn't know why, as if he was being electrified, he suddenly withdrew his hand, if it wasn't for Gao Yun's quick connection, the wine cup would have to fall into the dish.

Su Su glanced at Gao Yun in a daze, and suddenly felt that the tip of his nose was a little sour, "I..., I'm a little uncomfortable, forgive me." Su Su didn't finish speaking, hurriedly walked out, and tears welled up as soon as he turned around.

"Didn't you just touch it, I didn't mean to, as for it, there really is a set." Gao Yun was very dissatisfied in his heart, he felt that Su Su was like that because he hated him.

Gao Yun is not a narrow-minded person, but somehow, Su Su's actions made him very resentful.

So seeing that the matter had been completed, Gao Yun was no longer in the mood to stay, and after a few words of dealing with Su Shuang, he got up to say goodbye on the grounds that the distance was far away. Su Shuang didn't doubt it, and personally sent him out of the mansion and told Gao Yun that he would send someone to Luxian County to inform him when he and Zhang Shiping agreed on the departure date.

Gao Yun thanked Su Shuang, and then got in the car with Yu'er and returned to the county.

Gao Yun was very depressed along the way, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Su Su was arrogant, and he couldn't help complaining. But Yu'er sat in the car, not saying a word, with an unusual smile on her face.
