Zheng Gao never expected that Ah Guda would dislike the price he gave was too low, and he also hung him alone outside the gate of Wanyanbu, and he didn't mean to invite him in from beginning to end, it was like asking for food, what made Zheng Gao even more angry was that he asked to see Ah Guta again later, and he could even make concessions in terms of price, but the other party's answer was that he didn't have time to see him now, so let him wait outside.

"Bastard things, don't fall into my hands in the future, otherwise you must make you look good!" Zheng Gao huffed back to his team, and then pointed in the direction of Wanyanbu and scolded.

"Master, don't be too angry, this Wanyan tribe is the largest Jurchen tribe within a radius of a hundred miles, and it is normal for the leader to be arrogant, and I heard an important news just now, master, you will definitely be interested." At this moment, a young guy came over with a smile and said, this guy is Zheng Gao's scholar Qiu Ming, he grew up with Zheng Gao since he was a child, because he is smart and clever, so he has always been very valued by Zheng Gao, and has been the most important assistant by Zheng Gao's side over the years, and this time the Jurchen naturally took Qiu Ming with him.

Speaking of which, Zheng Gao also brought a lot of people with him to trade here this time, except for him and Qiu Ming, the master and servant, the rest are all Goryeo soldiers who came with him, after all, Changbai Mountain is the territory of the Jurchens, and the Jurchens have always been synonymous with rudeness and barbarism, and they may draw their swords against each other if they don't say a word, so Zheng Gao has to be careful. Apart from these guards, there was nothing else in the ranks, and as for the food and supplies he needed to trade with the Jurchens, they were all stored in the rear, and he would take them to the rear to get them after he reached a deal with the Jurchens, after all, he was not that stupid. If he came to the territory of the Jurchens with supplies, it would be like breaking into the den of a group of hungry dogs with a bone of flesh and bones, and I am afraid that in the end he would not even know how to die.

"What's the news?" Hearing Qiu Ming's persuasion, Zheng Gao sat on the blanket angrily and asked, this is a small hillside not far from Wanyanbu, which is temporarily used by him as a temporary camp. Originally, he thought that after he came to Yanbu, he would be treated as a VIP, but he didn't expect to be able to even enter the door.

"Master, I don't know if this news is true or not, but it sounds so bizarre that it can't be believed." Speaking of the news he heard, Qiu Ming said with some hesitation, because even he couldn't believe that the news was true.

"What the hell is the news?" Zheng Gao said a little impatiently at this time, and he was even more irritable now. Naturally, there is no patience to guess with Qiu Ming.

"Hehe, don't worry, master, in fact, I also overheard the two Jurchens chatting, master, you also know that I understand the Jurchen words, so after hearing it, I went to inquire about it, and took out a few small things for this purpose, so I heard some news, according to the two Jurchens. There is no shortage of supplies in their tribe at all, because it is just over a month away. They had just defeated the Liao army, looted a Liao mansion, and brought back countless supplies, if they hadn't distributed some to other tribes, I'm afraid those supplies would have been enough for their tribe for ten years. Only then did Qiu Ming finally tell the news he had heard.

"What! This...... How is this possible? Hearing that Wanyan had defeated the powerful Liao army, Zheng Gao also stood up in shock. He didn't know that this news was actually normal, as soon as this war had just ended, coupled with the defeat of the Liao State, Yelujun was ashamed, for the sake of the face of the Liao State. So he ordered the news to be blocked as much as possible from the outside world, which also made the news spread very slowly, at least not yet, Goryeo has not received any news.

"Originally, the villain didn't believe it, but then the two Jurchens pulled out their sabers to show me, and I found out that it was indeed the standard weapon of the Liao army, I had seen the Liao army on the border the year before last, and they used that kind of saber." Qiu Ming spoke again at this time.

"Absolutely impossible, although Wanyan is the largest Jurchen tribe in the vicinity, but at most there are only thousands of soldiers to fight, compared to the Liao State at every turn of tens of thousands of troops, it is simply incomparable, not to mention that the Liao army is well-equipped, combat effectiveness is very strong, the Liao army invaded our dynasty several times, especially in the Xianzong period more than 70 years ago, the Liao State attacked our dynasty with a force of 400,000 troops, and even the imperial city was occupied by them, if it were not for the fear that the battle line was too long and took the initiative to retreat, I am afraid that our Goryeo would have been destroyed long ago, How could such a powerful Liao state be defeated by a small Jurchen tribe? Zheng Gao reiterated again in disbelief when he heard this.

Although the Liao State has been weakened over the years, but for Goryeo, which is adjacent to the Liao State, the Liao State is still an invincible behemoth, they Goryeo did not even have the courage to resist under the oppression of the Liao State, and in recent years, they have relied on the rise of the Great Song Dynasty to give them a chance to breathe.

"Master, the villain feels that the words of those Jurchens are somewhat credible, first, the saber in their hands cannot be fake, and the villain has also secretly observed, the Jurchens on guard outside are almost all uniformly used this kind of saber, and some Jurchens are wearing the armor of the Liao army, and some armor is very broken, which shows that the Jurchens have a large number of Liao army equipment in their hands, these weapons cannot be sold by the Liao State, they can only be captured from the battlefield, and if it is really like they say, They have just defeated the Liao State and plundered a large amount of supplies, so they are not short of supplies, so their leaders will be so rude to your master, because they don't need our supplies at all. Qiu Ming analyzed very calmly at this time.

After listening to Qiu Ming's analysis, Zheng Gao couldn't help but show a contemplative expression, he seriously recalled the situation he had just seen A Guta, and found that the other party really looked fearless, and he was not interested in this transaction from beginning to end, which was absolutely very abnormal for the Jurchens who had always lacked everything, and the only explanation was that Qiu Ming's analysis just now was correct.

Thinking of the above, Zheng Gao's face couldn't help but show a little frightened expression, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "If this news is true, it is not a good thing for us Goryeo, the Jurchens can defeat the army of Liao, and they can also defeat our Goryeo army, and in comparison, our Goryeo seems to be easier to bully, so whether this transaction can be successful is secondary, you must confirm the news you heard before, It is best to be able to figure out the process of the Jurchens fighting the Liao State. ”

"The villain understands, that Ah Guda doesn't want to see us, I guess he doesn't really want to trade, but dislikes the price we give is too low, in this case, the master, you might as well stay for an excuse, put on a very eager to trade with the Jurchens, and then negotiate the price with them, and then the villain will find out the news from the secret, and strive to figure out what happened as soon as possible, so that after you go back, you will definitely be a great achievement!" Qiu Ming also spoke again with a serious expression at this time.

"That's it, if you can find out the exact news, you will also have a share of the credit after you go back, and then I will promote you to be a small official, with your ingenuity, maybe you can become an official in the future, and then you will be considered to have a background." Zheng Gao said very excitedly at this time, he also agreed with Qiu Ming's plan, after all, compared to the purchase of ginseng, if he could be sure that the Wanyan Department in front of him could defeat the powerful Liao State, then the credit would be even greater.

It was also the above reason, so Zheng Gao immediately ordered the whole team to camp on this hillside, this time it was not a temporary camp, but a camp tent that was intended to be stationed for a long time, and then Zheng Gao went to Wanyanbu again after lunch, asking to see Ah Guta, and deliberately made an anxious look, as if he was really unable to hold his breath.

For Zheng Gao's request to see, Ah Guta still didn't see him, not that he was playing a score, but that it was still early after he met Zheng Gao in the morning, so he personally led the hunting team and left the tribe, this time he may not come back for three or five days, and even Wu Qimai followed, so Zheng Gao naturally couldn't see Ah Guta.

Regarding the fact that Ah Guta was not in the Wanyan Department, although Zheng Gao was very disappointed on the surface, he was happy behind the scenes, because Ah Guta was not there, so it would be more convenient for him to collect intelligence, and at the same time, he would have more reason to stay near the Wanyan Department until Qiu Ming had collected the information.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and Ah Guda went out hunting and finally came back, using these few days, Zheng Gao's master and servant finally confirmed one thing, that is, Wanyan seemed to have really defeated the Liao army, and they also heard one thing, that is, Wanyan had defeated the Liao army three years ago, and ransacked Huanglong Mansion.

In just three years, the Liao army was defeated twice, and the strength of the Wanyan Department was not weakened, but became stronger, which made Zheng Gao more worried, and then he asked to see Ah Guta again, but Ah Guta still refused to see him, but he chose to acquiesce to Zheng Gao and others camping outside the tribe, which also made Zheng Gao more sure, Ah Guda must also want to trade, after all, ginseng is not easy to preserve after digging out, and it will become moldy and spoiled if you are not careful, such ginseng is not worth much.

Just when Zheng Gao was about to make a breakthrough in the transaction with the Jurchens, he didn't expect that on the sea not far from them, the merchant ships from the Great Song Dynasty also came slowly. (To be continued......)
