Chapter 117: Are You Going to Get Rich?
(The list of people has a lot of money left to collect a week, and it hasn't reached the one thousand and five that I hope to achieve, but I'll try to do three more this week, I'll work hard, ask for collection)
"Yan Yun?"
The young man frowned, and then an intriguing smile appeared on his lips. He turned to the middle-aged man and said, "The proprietor has never forgotten it, but his subordinates have forgotten it." ”
The middle-aged man laughed and said, turned his head sideways and asked Li Xian, "Have I ever misremembered your name?" ”
Li Xian pretended to be vigilant and clenched the black knife, looked into the eyes of the middle-aged man and asked, "How do you know my name?" ”
The young man named Ren Ren chuckled, and his laughter seemed to be a little disdainful of Li Xian's reaction. When it was said that the black-armored knight on the east bank of Liaoshui killed people and snatched corpses, as fast as lightning, he inevitably had curiosity about that person in his heart, and even imagined that the person was at least a calm and resolute man. However, Li Xian's posture now is a little too cautious, which will inevitably make him feel a little disappointed in his heart. It's just that he smiled, Li Xian also sneered in his heart, this guy called Renren looks very shrewd, how can he be so easily deceived by superficial things?
The middle-aged man seemed to like Li Xian's caution and honesty, and the sentence How do you know my name made him smile on his face.
"You just have to answer me, yes, or no."
He said with a smile.
"Why should I tell you?"
Li Xian asked again.
Seeing that the other party was so careful like a hedgehog, the smile in the middle-aged man's eyes became stronger.
"You can not tell me, but don't you think you have already admitted it? If you're not Yanyun, it's okay to say no, why bother saying why should I tell you? Huh"
The middle-aged man pointed out the loopholes in Li's gossip, and looked at the expression on his face with a little smugness.
Li Xian pretended to be suffocated, took a step back and said, "So what?" ”
Seeing him so vigilant, the middle-aged man laughed: "Young man, why are you so careful? I'm not a wicked person, can I still hurt you? ”
Li Xian said: "Who knows if you are a wicked person?" There is a war going on in this place, and you are haunting here, what kind of good people will it be? ”
"Bold!"
The young man named Renren shouted loudly, looking at Li Xian's eyes with a coldness.
A few men behind him took a step forward, just waiting for the order to step forward and take people. It's just that the middle-aged man was not angry, waved his hand and said: "Renren, he is alone here, there are many of us, it is inevitable that he will be careful, there is no need to make such a fuss." ”
"Yes."
Renren took a step back, under the cover of the cold expression on his face, there was clearly a bit of a smile in his eyes, although Li Xian only swept over his face, he could detect that this person was actually not hostile to him, his face was cold, his eyes were sharp, in fact, he was just making a show. He quickly calculated in his heart, guessing the identity of the middle-aged man opposite. Seeing that he has a kind of natural superiority in his gestures, it is expected that he must be a person of great status. Now on the east bank of Liaoshui, there are far more Sui people than Goryeo, and the few Goryeo people are still blocked in Liaodong City and can't get out, is this person a lieutenant general of the Sui army?
"Young man, don't be so hostile, you're from Sui, right?"
Without waiting for Li Xian to answer, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "I am also a Sui person, so we are friends rather than enemies." ”
Li Xian thought for a while and said, "That's right, the Goryeo people shrank their heads like turtles and curled up in the hard shell of Liaodong City and couldn't get out." Are you...... People in the Great Sui Army? ”
The smile in the middle-aged man's eyes became a little thicker, and he chuckled: "Even if you still have some eyesight, speaking of which, I do come from a military background." ”
He stretched out his hand and gestured, and said with a smile: "The Koreans look like turtles with shrunken heads? Liaodong City is a hard shell? That's a good thing, it's a good thing! Hahahaha! ”
Li Xian put the black knife behind his back, and said to the man: "Please forgive the kid for being rude before, but he is in the east of Liaoshui, and he did something to make Goryeo angry and vomit blood a while ago, so it is inevitable to be careful." ”
The middle-aged man smiled at him and said, "It's okay, if I hadn't seen you snatch General Mai's corpse with my own eyes, and I saw the black knife in your hand and your big black horse, I wouldn't have recognized you." Your name is Yan Yun, and your surname is Yan ...... It should be from the surname Ji of the Zhou royal family, but it is also a famous family, not bad, not bad. ”
Hearing that the middle-aged man opened his mouth and gave Li Xian'an an an amazing ancestor, the young man's eyes changed, and he knew that his noble proprietor had a heart of love for talent again, and he couldn't stop it. He turned his gaze to Li Xian, and said in his heart that as long as you are smarter, this chance encounter will not become a great fortune for you. The surname Yan, from the Great Zhou royal family surnamed Ji, is true, but since the descendants of the surname Ji established the Yan State and was destroyed by the Qin State, the descendants of the surname Yan moved south to the south of the Yangtze River, and after so many years, I have not heard of any great characters, even the Yan family in Jiangnan can barely be regarded as a small rich place, and the surname Yan in the north is not famous.
He knows the surname of the proprietor, and he likes to promote the children of civilians, such as the man from Youzhou, who has only been promoted to the general of the third grade in just a few years!
He looked at Li Xian with a bit of expectation in his eyes, and said in his heart that as long as you follow the proprietor's words, I am afraid that there will be a six-grade lieutenant who will be in hand, and the fame will be taken immediately, which is true, but chance is sometimes the key factor. In a word, it may be able to save three or five years of desperate climbing.
"I'm not a famous family, although my family is barely well-off, but I'm just a pawn of a peddler in a remote corner, just an ordinary person who goes to Cyprus to trade abroad."
Li Xian replied seriously.
The young man named Ren sighed in his heart: What an idiot...... A wealth is gone.
The middle-aged man obviously didn't expect Li Xian to answer like this, and his face suddenly showed a little disappointed. It was only soon that he regained his smile: "Although you people surnamed Yan have not produced any amazing characters in recent years, they are worthy of the four words after the famous family." Fame but take it right away, you have this good ability, it is difficult to guarantee whether the lintel will be glorified in the future, you ...... Why didn't you join the army in the first place? ”
The young man called Renren was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise in his heart: Your Majesty is still thinking of promoting this idiot boy! He glanced at Li Xian again, and couldn't help but quietly wink, and said in his heart, you idiot don't say the wrong thing again.
That's right, standing in front of Li Xian, this year-round man who looks kind and slightly blessed is the master of today's Great Sui, Yang Guang, the Emperor of the Great Cause! And this young man called Renren is the second son of Yu Wenshi, the general of Zuo Zhenwei, Renren, who is his cousin.
Yu Wenshi looked at Li Xian and quietly strengthened him.
However, Li Xian turned a blind eye to his floating eyes, and still replied very seriously: "My family has been in business for generations, and His Majesty has gathered the children of good families in the world to gather in Zhuo County to crusade against Gao Yuan clown and relieve the people from hanging, and it happened that at that time I was going to Saibei to collect a batch of goods, which was related to the livelihood of the family. When I returned home, I rushed to Zhuojun, and the army had already been launched...... In desperation, I had no choice but to take my children to chase all the way through Liaoshui. We were in too much of a hurry to know where the army was, and we thought we had crossed the Liaoshui, so we crossed the river from Wuli Luocheng and went directly to the east bank. ”
Eight points of what he said were false, and only the part where the Xi and Khitans fought on the grassland was true.
It's just that he has a delicate face and a sincere tone, and it doesn't sound like a lie.
Alas!
Yu Wenshi sighed in his heart again, and said in his heart, Are you really a fool this young man? In order to make a trip to Saibei to earn a few small money to support the family, he delayed reporting to Zhuo County, which is already a big crime. Even if Your Majesty wants to promote you again, I'm afraid I won't be able to find a reason. Seeing such a young man lose his future because he couldn't speak, Yu Wenshi also felt sorry for him.
Sure enough, Yang Guang's face sank, and his expression was extremely disappointed.
He stood stunned for a moment, and finally just said, "Fortunately, you didn't arrive too late." ”
The sense of disappointment in these words was extremely strong, so thick that Yu Wenshi couldn't help but glance at Li Xian. In his opinion, this young man is too honest and wooden. Since you can guess that Your Majesty is a powerful person in the army, don't you know that a great general can also give you a fortune? A sucker! What a big idiot!
Li Xian said: "It's still too late, if you go to Liaoshui a few days earlier, you can also rush to kill with General Mai, even if you die on the battlefield, it is worth your life." It's a pity ......"
He said a word of pity, but it was really a pity for the death of the wheat rod.
Seeing that the expression on his face didn't seem to be fake, Yang Guang was also a little sad: "General Mai's loyalty to the country is indeed admirable. I'm still able to speak in the army, you...... If you want to join the army, you can say to me, how about I arrange for you to do things in Zuotunwei? ”
Aha!
Yu Wenshi and his heart screamed in surprise, His Majesty has not given up yet! This kid is so lucky, and I don't know why His Majesty is so fond of this stunned fool.
And the next moment, he was disappointed again.
Li Xian shook his head seriously and said, "Since you have missed it, then you have missed it." If you can catch up with the army, you will have no regrets even if you die on the battlefield. But if you miss it, how can you still enter the army? I delayed my trip because of private matters at home, which is a great crime of disrespect and deception. Even if you enter the army, what face is there to be with the robe? The reason why I haven't returned home yet is to see if I can do more, now that it's autumn, I can't make a contribution here, I plan to go home in a few days to support my parents. ”
Yang Guang heard him tell him sincerely, although he was extremely disappointed, he still couldn't help but nod and said: "If you make more merits, it is good to make meritorious contributions, as far as I know, the army will divide its troops to attack other places, see that you are good at plain field warfare, but you are willing to go with the army, if you have made a lot of military achievements, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be a good future." ”
Li Xian sighed in his heart: You idiot two hundred and five, Lao Tzu is so pushing, why don't you give up? If it weren't for the large number of you, if it weren't for the crossbows of the dozen or so guys behind you who haven't been put down, Lao Tzu would have slashed you and run away.
From his words, he had already guessed the identity of this chubby middle-aged man, his biggest enemy stood in front of him and talked eloquently, and repeatedly asked himself to work for him, Li Xian felt that this was a very cold joke. I didn't guess his identity before, because Li Xian knew that Yang Guang had not returned from Wanghaidon, and he didn't expect that Yang Guang would dare to run back from Wanghaidon Weifu with only a few dozen guards!
Suddenly, he had an idea.
Could it be that the division of the army that this idiot emperor said was that Yu Wenshu and others led 300,000 elite army commanders to attack Pyongyang, but because the food was exhausted, they were completely annihilated by the 300,000 troops besieging from all sides? So...... Do you want to follow along?
That's right, this trip is bound to be dangerous, but if you seize the opportunity, you may really make a fortune!
