Chapter 296: Infernal Affairs

Xiong Xiulan grabbed Zhang Feng's arm tightly, her little face was pale, and she asked in a low voice, "Brother Feng, will there be something?" ”

"No, it won't!" Zhang Feng pretended to be calm and said: "That's my second brother, does he dare to come nonsense!" ”

But your dad doesn't know! Zhang Feng sneered, he pulled Xiong Xiulan, and when he arrived at the gate of the small courtyard, Shen Yue was looking at it with a thin head. ↑ Top Novel,

"Hey, how's it going?"

"Ahh Shen Yue swept over the two of them in surprise, his eyes widening wider than a cow.

"This, this is, yes, Mrs. Sister-in-law, right?"

Zhang Feng's old face turned red, and he hurriedly said: "I haven't married yet, I don't know if it's my sister-in-law or my younger sister......"

Before he could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his arm, which was worse than a shot with a bow and arrow. Xiong Xiulan puffed out her cheeks and glared angrily.

"What nonsense, where are the brains?"

Zhang Feng finally realized the slip of the tongue, his face turned purple, and he glared at Shen Yue fiercely, looking like he looked like you!

Shen Yue couldn't cry or laugh, "Lao Tzu is more wronged than Dou E, Brother Zhang, I can tell you, Yongzhen has been talking in it for a while, how can he not talk, ask for more blessings!" ”

After Shen Yue finished speaking, he ran away, leaving Zhang Feng and Xiong Xiulan to look at each other, their faces full of horror.

"Alas! Isn't horizontal and vertical just death, go! ”

Young Master Zhang took out a gesture of generosity and righteousness, gritted his teeth, and walked into the small courtyard with a majestic and high-spirited attitude.

Step by step, when he arrived at the door, Zhang Feng took a hard breath, how much he loved!

Squeak, the door opened.

Looking inside, Zhang Feng thought about many situations, whether it was a quarrel or a mess of harmony, he could accept it, but the scene in front of him still greatly exceeded Zhang Feng's expectations.

I saw Zhang Ke crossing Erlang's legs and sitting on the circle chair. Xiong Ruoguang was on the side, burying his head, crackling and planning to plate, faintly sweating from his forehead. It's really a brine point tofu, one thing drops one thing!

Zhang Feng thought about it, but he couldn't figure it out. At this time, the old man Xiong suddenly raised his head, his sharp eyes were like knives, which frightened Zhang Feng, and Xiong Xiulan was even more ashamed, and hurriedly took his hand back. Like a frightened fawn. Neither standing, nor sitting.

"Girl, don't come here yet!"

"Yes!" Xiong Xiulan lowered her pink neck and hurriedly ran over.

Xiong Ruoguang grabbed a stack of manuscripts and threw them in front of Xiong Xiulan.

"Do the math, two hours to get results!"

"Oh!" Xiong Xiulan didn't know why, so she sat down obediently and counted with her father. She didn't use an abacus, her eyes swept over. I silently wrote down the numbers in my heart, and soon calculated a lot, and even Zhang Ke was frightened and didn't see it. The future sister-in-law's skills are not bad!

Zhang Ke gave the eldest brother a look, and the two brothers retreated to the west room.

"Hahaha, big brother, see it. My sister-in-law has the ability to never forget, she is talented and good-looking, and her eldest brother's vision is not bad! ”

"That's it!" Zhang Feng laughed proudly. But then his face collapsed, and he said with a sad face: "Second child, what did you say to Old Man Xiong, I have been staked all my life!" ”

"Hehehe, it's nothing, it's just a little business, let him calculate how much food he can mobilize."

"Just business?" Zhang Feng's eyes were as big as a cow.

"Second brother, your eldest brother has been happy all his life, you kid dare to be so sloppy, believe it or not, I'll fight with you now!"

Zhang Feng stretched out his big hand and made a gesture to catch Zhang Ke.

"Alright, big brother, what a big deal." Zhang Ke said nonchalantly: "As a general, you want Mount Tai to collapse in front of you, and your face will not change, understand?" ”

"I don't understand, don't sell me guanzi, you kid!" Zhang Feng raised his eyebrows, so anxious that his hair stood up.

Zhang Ke said with a smile: "Big brother, you are a fan when you encounter trouble, with the status of our family, what is so difficult to say about a family business!" Old man Xiong couldn't see Uncle Qiu in the past, after all, marriage pays attention to the right family, do you think the Zhang family is not as good as them? ”

"Of course it's comparable, but I've messed with the old man again, I'm afraid ......"

"Don't be afraid! I told him that I would let Lord Wang be a matchmaker for you, and when the war on the grassland is over, I will immediately give you a visit to the church and get married. ”

"Hahaha, there you have it!" Zhang Feng suddenly grinned, "Second brother, I knew you could do it!" ”

Zhang Ke smiled: "Old man Xiong is a little pedantic, but he is not bad. ”

"That's, that's!" Zhang Feng instantly threw all the words slandering the old man out of the clouds, and only a bunch of New Year's greetings remained.

"By the way, second brother, since the negotiation has been agreed, you still let Xiong, what is Mr. Xiong?" Zhang Feng asked suspiciously.

"How to deal with the Tartars, naturally!"

Zhang Ke sighed, paced back and forth on the ground, and said: "Someone just sent a message, it is said that there are too many Tartars this time, we must discuss a solution!" ”

Zhang Feng didn't worry at all, but patted his chest and laughed: "How good it is, wait for me to kill a few thousand more, and come back with a general soldier, and marry Xiulan is not decent." ”

Zhang Ke has nothing to say to the eldest brother who is carried away by love, to be honest, the situation is indeed worse than imagined.

Just the day before Zhang Ke came, a Mongol found Xiong Ruoguang, and he told the old man that this time several tribes of the Tartars joined forces, with a total strength of more than 150,000, and they were bound to drive all the Han people out of the grassland!

The battle of Guangning was only 50,000 Tartars, and the Ming Dynasty still had a strong city to rely on, but this time there were 150,000 Tartars, isn't it fatal!

"Second brother, is your information reliable?" Zhang Feng's head cooled and he asked in surprise.

"Naturally, it's reliable, let's go meet the messenger!"

Zhang Ke took Zhang Feng to a delicate cross-courtyard, and as soon as he pushed the door in, there happened to be a big man sleeping soundly on his back.

"Brother Zana, an old friend is here!"

As soon as the big man heard this, he turned over suddenly, got up from the kang, rubbed his eyes, and saw that it was Zhang Ke, and immediately grinned.

"It's Brother Zhang Ke, it's been a long time!" Zhana gave Zhang Ke a sturdy bear hug, and after a long time the two were separated, Zhana suddenly grabbed his beard and asked apologetically: "I heard them say that you have been promoted, it seems that you are older than our Taiji, I, I ......"

"Hahaha. No matter what official position, we are all friends and brothers! ”

As soon as these words came out, Zana danced excitedly.

"I know that when the time comes, Zhang Ke is an honest and trustworthy good friend, a good brother worth dating!"

Zhana said this sincerely, he did a business in Guangning at the beginning, and later An'er joined the gang, and Zhana helped Zhang Ke escape the catastrophe.

Later, Zhang Ke fulfilled his promise. Zhana became a merchant appointed by the Ming court himself, giving the best price to everything he sent, and allowing him to act as an agent for cloth, porcelain, ironware, furniture, and so on. Later, he was made to act as an agent for the purchase of wool.

This is a terrible thing, not to mention the ordinary people, even those old ministers, even Xiao Taiji, have to look at his face. Respectfully Zana!

In two years, the wealth in his hands reached 50,000 taels of silver, and he was an out-and-out wealthy businessman. In the summer, Zhanatha cost eight thousand pieces of silver. Bought a famous prostitute. Others ask for piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he only asks for a plan and can help settle accounts. The Mongols could no longer calculate his wealth.

Today's Zhana wears Hanfu and speaks Chinese. He lives in Liaodong for most of the year, and he is very affectionate with his wife, like a wealthy businessman.

Of course, Zhana knew who gave him all the qiē. When he learned that the Mongols were attacking the Ming court, he immediately came to report the news.

Seeing the truth in adversity, Zhang Ke took Zhana's hand with relief and sat side by side.

"Brother Zana, don't say anything else, I will thank you again in the future!"

Zhana sighed: "Brother Zhang Ke, to be honest, this level is not easy? ”

"What? Too many people coming? ”

"That's right!"

Zhana immediately introduced to Zhang Ke, he knew that there were Karaqin Department and Wuliangha Department, but after listening to Zhana's introduction, there are also Dongtu Mote Department, Wuban Department, Sujianghai Department, and even Lin Dan Khan has already sent people, and finally there is the Fried Flower Department!

Combined, there are more than 200,000 people who control the strings, and even if they don't arrive at this time, there are more than 100,000 people!

"Damn, why are there so many?" Zhang Feng's head was sweating.

Zhana continued: "Brother Zhang Ke, the main force of this expedition is the Eastern Tumut Division, they have always wanted to get the grassland beyond the Great Wall, and their combat power is the strongest. Shan Bataiji of Uliangha did not want to oppose the Ming Dynasty, he only wanted to trade equally, but his power was too small. The rest of the Karaqin and Sujianghai tribes are all predatory wolves, they are the most greedy and shameless, and they are a bunch of out-and-out fools! ”

"Brother Zana, to put it mildly, don't you Mongols always like to loot?"

"That was before!" Zhana blushed and argued loudly: "As long as a fool wants to rob with his life, with that energy, hundreds of more sheep can be exchanged for the desired qiē with wool!" How much can you grab by breaking a city, only trade can live a steady stream of wealth! ”

"Good!" Zhang Ke felt a little relieved, and finally some Mongolians understood the benefits of trade!

"Brother Zana, no matter how many there are, I firmly believe that victory will be ours! If they win, there will still be endless fighting on the grassland, rivers of blood will flow, and there will be no chance to change! And if we win, trade on the steppe will be more prosperous. Raising sheep alone is enough to make all Mongolians rich and never have to worry about hunger and cold! ”

Zhana knew it deeply, and a few words made his blood boil.

"I believe in Brother Zhang Ke!" Zhana said angrily: "Those bastards, I can't wait to pick up knives and guns, fight with Brother Zhang Ke, and kick their butts hard!" ”

As soon as Zhang Ke heard this, his eyes suddenly rolled, this Zhana may be able to help even more! Thinking of this, Zhang Ke stared at Zhana with his eyes tightly, and asked word by word: "Brother Zhana, I have something I want your help with!" ”

"Did you deal with those guys?" Zhana took out the dagger from the boot and pampered him for more than two years, and Zhana was not as ruthless as before. He gritted his teeth and didn't dare to cut his wrist, but just scratched his little finger, blood dripping out, and he hurriedly put his finger in the wine glass next to him.

"Brother Zhang Ke, just say something."

"Good!" Zhang Ke nodded and said solemnly: "Brother Zana, you must let the coalition army know that the grain and grass are hoarded in Yingzhou, and you must induce them to attack Yingzhou!" (To be continued......)
