Chapter Twenty-Seven: Pegasus Ranch, Buy War Horses
Lu Miaozi, known as the world's first craftsman, is an all-round genius, martial arts, medicine, gardening, architecture, art of war, astronomy, organs, disguise, calendar, etc., all of which are proficient in everything.
This character does not appear too much in the Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, but it leaves a deep impression.
Wang Xiaoguang asked Wanwan to go to Pegasus Ranch to invite Lu Miaozi out of the mountain, not because of his martial arts, or the art of war, but because of his ability to be the first craftsman.
Fighting for dominance in the world is not a dinner party, nor is it a triad fight, but a large army gathers to siege the city, so siege equipment is indispensable. If Lu Miaozi can be invited out of the mountain, then the siege equipment of the Xingyang Society will no longer be a problem.
Lu Miaozi is also a bastard-level character, not a good person, according to later generations, he is a scumbag.
When I was young, I met Zhu Yuyan and was shocked, so I chased after him. It's a pity that this guy's methods are not good, he didn't even mix the spare tire, and he also angered Zhu Yuyan and was almost killed.
Later, he fled to Pegasus Ranch, met Shang Qingya, and got Shang Qingya's love, but this guy thought that his true love was only Zhu Yuyan, so he always refused to accept Shang Qingya, and finally Shang Qingya died, so he regretted it all day long, feeling that he had failed Shang Qingya.
Of course, some people say that Lu Miaozi provoked Shang Qingya at the beginning, and gave birth to a daughter with her, and later met Zhu Yuyan who abandoned his wife and daughter to pursue him, but he was almost beaten to death, so he could only return to Pegasus Ranch in disgrace.
In short, regardless of that version, Lu Miaozi is definitely not a good man.
If he really has the strength, don't say that he will accept Zhu Yuyan and Shang Qingya together, even if he accepts Fan Qinghui, no one dares to say half a word of gossip, but unfortunately this guy claims to be infatuated, but in the end it became a joke.
Lu Miaozi's injury is nothing to Wang Xiaoguang, although he doesn't know medical skills, but he has divine power, which can be called a panacea, and there is no problem in curing Lu Miaozi.
As for whether Lu Miaozi will go out of the mountain and whether he will serve the enemy's disciples.
At this point, neither Wang Xiaoguang nor Wanwan has the slightest doubt, that is for sure. What is Wanwan's identity, that's the boss of the Demon Gate, you dare to say a "no", it will be a matter of minutes to kill your whole family.
Unless Lu Miaozi really doesn't care about Shang Xiuxun's life and death, there is no other way to choose in the face of the threat of the demon gate boss.
A group of more than a dozen riders, from Nanyang City towards Pegasus Ranch, these people are men and women, all of them are the new little brothers of the Wanwan boss in the past six months, and the young generation of masters in the major gangs in Nanyang City.
Pegasus Ranch is located in the southwest of Jingling County, the junction of Zhangshui and Fushui, two tributaries of the Yangtze River, the climate is mild, the soil is fertile, the products are abundant, surrounded by mountains, only the east and west two gorges can be entered and exited, the form is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In particular, there is a city tower at the exit of the gorge, the pit of three zhang wide and five zhang deep is dug out in front of the building, the mouth of the gorge is crossed, the following is full of spikes, the suspension bridge must be passed, there is indeed a husband when the pass, and it is difficult for ten thousand people to cross.
Pegasus Ranch, the high-quality good horses produced, famous all over the world, this time Wanwan came, made up his mind to want both people and money, swallowed Pegasus Ranch, and formed a powerful cavalry.
Jingling and Nanyang, both belong to Jingzhou, not far apart, more than ten horsemen travel fast for three or five days, arrive at the ranch into a building in front of the precedent, claiming to come to buy war horses.
These people almost cover the major forces in Nanyang, so the people in the Pegasus Ranch did not suspect it and led them into the Pegasus Ranch.
At this time, the world is in turmoil, and Pegasus Ranch, as a world-famous supplier of war horses, is a coveted piece of fat for many forces, but most of those gate valve anti-king forces are located in the Jianghuai region of the Central Plains, so even if they have the heart, they can't do it, so they can only come to buy war horses in business.
Of course, this is not to say that there is no attention to the Pegasus Ranch in Jingling, in fact, whether it is the Dominating Mountain Villa that controls Jingling, or the notorious Four Kou, they are all eyeing Pegasus Ranch, especially the Four Kou, who do not hide the peeping of the ranch at all, and collude with the personnel in the ranch, intending to swallow the Pegasus Ranch completely.
"Old man Shang Zhen, I've seen a few young heroes, but I don't know how many of them need to purchase war horses?"
Shang Zhen, the general manager of Pegasus Ranch, smiled and spoke after seeing Wanwan and his party.
"How many horses do you have in your pasture, and I don't know if it's enough for us?"
Hearing Shang Zhen's words, Wanwan asked with some curiosity, the Pegasus Ranch is actually not very big, only a few dozen miles, so she is more curious about how many war horses can be in the ranch.
"Haha, the girl laughed, if today, at least one-tenth of the war horses are from our Pegasus Ranch, and I dare not say that if there are more, thirty or fifty thousand horses can still be enough."
Shang Zhen said proudly, Pegasus Ranch can be famous all over the world, naturally has his heritage, such as today's chaos, all major forces need war horses, and the source of war horses, in addition to the grasslands in the north, is also his Pegasus Ranch.
Who knew that after hearing this, Wanwan was not very satisfied, she originally thought that there would be 180,000 war horses in the Pegasus Ranch, but now it seems that it is still a lot worse.
"It's a little less, but it's okay."
"Get a price, I want it all!"
Wanwan waved her hand and said indifferently, it seems that thirty or fifty thousand war horses are all trivial to her.
In fact, this is also the case, not to mention the accumulation of wealth from the Yin Sect for generations, the money obtained from Yang Gong's treasury alone is enough for her to raise a cavalry of more than 100,000 people. So the thirty or fifty thousand war horses said to her that there was really no pressure.
Now it was Shang Zhen's turn not to know how to answer, if it weren't for the fact that he had already found out the identities of these young boys and girls, he almost thought that this group of little guys had come to make trouble.
Other forces, even if they are Li Valve, Wagang Army, etc., buy three or five thousand war horses, they are already bleeding profusely, this girl in front of her is good, she opens her mouth is thirty or fifty thousand, and it is too little to look at that appearance.
"What, what's the problem?"
Wanwan looked at Shang Zhen, who was stunned and didn't speak, her brows furrowed, and she asked a little unhappily.
"Girl, do you know the price of a war horse?"
"Thirty or fifty thousand war horses is not a small number."
Shang Zhen took a deep breath and said calmly, in this era, a war horse costs at least fifty or sixty taels of silver, and such a price is enough for an ordinary family of three to live for ten years.
And the war horse is not an old cattle, it is very delicate, after buying it back, feed feeding, etc., are a big burden and consume a lot, otherwise those big forces will not be reluctant to buy it wantonly.
When Wanwan heard Shang Zhen's words, she was immediately angry, what do you mean, do you think she can't afford it?
It's just that Wanwan is also a person who respects the old and loves the young, and she doesn't want to surrender her identity to argue with an old man, so she glanced at the little brother behind her unhappily.
"What do you mean by the business manager, do you think that our eldest sister will still lack your little silver?"
"Yes, just a few million taels of silver, our Nanyang Gang Alliance can afford it."
"Our eldest sister said to buy it, she will definitely buy it, what are you worried about..."
“......”
Seeing that the Wanwan boss was unhappy, the group of junior brothers behind her suddenly stopped doing it, and said loudly one by one, look at the look, if Shang Zhen doesn't give an explanation, it will definitely be over.
Seeing this, Shang Zhen also had a headache, in the past, it was already a big deal for these gangs to buy hundreds of war horses at a time, but now this group of little guys in front of him is thirty or fifty thousand, and he believes in it.
"If the business steward can't make up his mind, you can ask your owner to come and discuss, this time our Nanyang Gang Alliance came to buy war horses, and we must have received the consent from above, how can we play with the steward."
Just when Shang Zhen wanted to open his mouth to teach this group of little guys a lesson, Wang Xiaoguang behind Wanwan opened his mouth slowly, full of indifferent tone, which made him a little surprised, and he couldn't figure out the true intentions of the group of people in the Nanyang Gang Alliance, so he finally thought about it and spoke.
"In that case, please wait a while, and I'll go and invite our owner to come."
