Chapter 30: Windfall (Collect, Recommend)
"Yan Xing?"
Wang Chong was taken aback, obviously he didn't expect that the big man in front of him turned out to be the famous Yan Xing.
"Do you recognize me?" Yan Xing was a little surprised, now he is only a young general under Han Sui, and his reputation is not obvious, but he never thought that someone in Yangzhou would hear his name.
"It is rumored that you almost killed Ma Chao, I don't know if this is true or not?" Wang Chong had a lot of impressions of Yan Xing in his previous life, and it was because of this rumor.
Yan Xing's face was a little not good-looking: "There is such a thing, but there are too many objective factors on the battlefield, and it was purely a fluke that I was able to win that battle, when Ma Chao wanted to take my spear with his bare hands, but the spear was accidentally broken, so I took the opportunity to hit Ma Chao's neck with a broken spear, in fact, in terms of martial arts alone, I am indeed not Ma Chao's opponent." ”
"I see." Wang Chong nodded thoughtfully and looked at Yan Xingdao, "You are a gentleman!" ”
Ordinary martial artists are very proud, and few people admit that they are worse than others, not to mention that in that battle, it was Yan Xing who won the battle, and it can be seen from this point that Yan Xing is a frank gentleman, if he loses, he will lose, it is better than that, he will not find many excuses for his failure, and will only make himself stronger through more diligent efforts.
"Thank you." Yan Xing's reaction was flat, because it didn't have anything to be proud of for him, "What about you?" Is it Wang Chong or Gan Ning? ”
"In Xia Wang Chong, the word Shaolin, when did you learn my identity?"
"From the time you first got on board." Yan Xing glanced down at the bell pinned to Wang Chong's waist, "During this time, your Jinfan's deeds in Poyang Lake have been spread in Chaisang City, and we have naturally heard about it. And I also heard that the two leaders of Jinfan, Wang Chong and Gan Ning, both have the courage of ten thousand people, so I wanted to try your skills, but I didn't expect ......"
Yan Xing shook his head bitterly: "I'm also humiliating myself, right?" ”
Seeing that Yan Xing was still very concerned about losing to himself in one move, Wang Chong persuaded: "You northerners are all good at horse archery, maybe I can defeat you in foot combat, but horse combat is still unknown, at most we have our own strengths." ”
How could Yan Xing not know that Wang Chong was just comforting himself, and he didn't want to dwell on this issue more: "Okay, don't say so much, come in, I'll take you to see Mr." ”
"It's good!" Wang Chong nodded, turned to Li Tao and said, "Boyun came in with me, and the others waited outside for the time being." ”
Li Tao stepped forward to pick up the package and followed Yan Xing into the cabin with Wang Chong.
The gentleman in Yan Xing's mouth was a young scholar in his early thirties, with a thin figure and a small goatee on his chin, and he looked very ordinary, but his eyes shone with wisdom.
"Leader Wang, let me introduce to you, this is my husband, surnamed Cheng Gongming Ying, the table character Zhongyuan (in history, Cheng Gongying's appearance is ominous, this is apocryphal), and he is the first wise man in my Liangzhou (okay, where do you put Jia Xu)."
"Cheng Gongying!?"
If Wang Chong was just shocked when he learned of Yan Xing's identity, then when he heard Cheng Gongying's name at this moment, Wang Chong could be said to be shocked.
You must know that Cheng Gongying is a confidant under Han Sui, such an important person, but now he secretly appears in Chaisang, which is simply too appalling.
Horse traffickers? Are you kidding? Does Han Sui lack that money? And even if you are really short of money, you don't need Cheng Gongying to go out in person, right? As for the external claim that they came from the Northland, it is nothing more than to hide people's eyes, so what is their real purpose?
"The leader of the king, the leader of the king?" Yan Xing called out twice in succession before Wang Chong came back to his senses from the shock.
"I'm sorry, I accidentally got distracted, and I hope Mr. won't blame me." Wang Chong smiled apologetically and saluted Cheng Gongying.
"It's okay!" Cheng Gongying waved his hand and glanced at Wang Chong deeply, "Today, Yanming and I both met the leader with our true identities, which shows our sincerity, so I hope that the leader can keep the secret for us, and don't pass on our true identities." ”
That being said, in fact, Cheng Gongying is also very helpless.
Yan Xingshan took the initiative to tell Wang Chong their real names, if Wang Chong didn't know them, it would be fine, judging from Wang Chong's reaction just now, the other party obviously already knew their origins.
Wang Chong's martial arts are strong, plus when he goes out, Cheng Gongying doesn't want to make extraneous branches, not to mention the success rate of killing people and destroying mouths, and he may be retaliated by Jinfan, and the gains outweigh the losses, so far in the matter, Cheng Gongying can only persuade with good words.
"Sir, don't worry, I will be tight-lipped about this matter." Wang Chong paused as he spoke, "However, about the ...... of war horses"
Wang Chong was already a threat in disguise, and the faces of Cheng Gongying and Yan Xing became a little unnatural at this moment.
Cheng Gongying thought for a while and said: "I know that the leader won the bet with Yanming, if it is placed in normal times, it doesn't hurt that this batch of war horses is given to the leader for nothing, but we have an important task when we go south this time, so I'm sorry, we can only sell a hundred horses at most, and I hope the leader will forgive me." ”
"Too little!" Wang Chong shook his head, "That's it, I don't want much, how about two hundred horses?" ”
Bargging, one begging, one returning, Cheng Gongying opened his mouth for a hundred horses, obviously this is not his bottom limit.
Cheng Gongying looked embarrassed, struggled for a long time before gritting his teeth and said: "Okay, two hundred horses are two hundred horses, and I have the right to make a good relationship with the leader!" ”
Seeing that Cheng Gongying agreed, Wang Chong's first reaction at the moment was to be less, but the matter had come to this point, and he didn't want more, in the final analysis, he was already satisfied if he could buy two hundred war horses this time.
"In this way, thank you sir, if General An Qiang (Han Sui's official position) has a place to find our Jinfan in the future, just open your mouth, as long as you can, we will not refuse!"
Cheng Gongying casually said a perfunctory sentence, covering his forehead with his hand: "I'm sorry, I'm a little tired, Yanming, and then the leader of the king will be entertained by you, don't be lazy!" ”
Cheng Gongying gave an eviction order, and Wang Chong didn't want to be bored, so he immediately got up and said goodbye.
Two hundred war horses, ten experienced horsemen and a merchant ship carrying horses, Yan Xing symbolically only received one hundred gold from Wang Chong.
The best war horses are priceless in Jiangdong, one is enough to sell for a gold, Yan Xing opened such a low price, and also has his own apologies in it, after all, according to the bet between the two, all their war horses should be sold to Wang Chong, but unfortunately, as he said before, this matter is not for him to decide.
However, for Wang Chong, the biggest gain of his trip to Chaisang was not these war horses, nor his friendship with Yan Xing, but one of the grooms that Yan Xing gave him.
This is a fierce-looking young man, he still looks very immature, but he is strong, and at the age of sixteen or seventeen, he is already half a head taller than Wang Chong, Wang Chong symbolically asked the name, but the result surprised him.
"Villain Wang Shuang, I've seen the leader!"
Wang Shuang, the word is complete, the general of Cao Wei in the Three Kingdoms, nine feet tall, infinite strength, not only outstanding martial arts, but also a meteor hammer in one hand makes it superb, which makes people guard against it.
Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, one general is hard to find, and getting Wang Shuang is definitely more pleasing to Wang Chong than buying two hundred war horses.
"Very good, you will follow me in the future and be my personal guard."
"No!"
