Chapter 236: Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
Chapter 236 Draw Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
The pro-soldiers of Xiangli led the carriage with hundreds of soldiers and headed towards Zhicheng.
"Is there any oil?" asked the soldier to the shopkeeper of a shop.
"Master Huijun, no, the oil has been sold out. ”
"What's the matter? This is already the tenth shop, how can there be no oil? If I can't buy oil, the commander will definitely kill me!" The soldier frowned, his face was very bad, and he walked out.
At this time, the shopkeeper spoke again, "Master Jun, maybe there is oil in the Weikai oil store, and the Weikai oil store was crazy about buying oil early this morning, and I don't know what they are buying oil for." They bought all my oil. ”
The soldier suddenly stopped, turned around, and said, "Oh?
"Yes, maybe the oil of all the shops in Zhicheng has been purchased by it now, if you want to buy oil, you can go there and have a look. ”
"How do you get to the oil shop?"
"Go out, 400 meters to the right. ”
The soldiers went out and waved their hands to a dry man, "Go!"
After entering the Weikai oil shop, I saw a large barrel of oil piled up all over the oil store. The pro-soldier was excited, "Shopkeeper, I want to buy oil." ”
At this moment, Lu Yuan was sitting at the counter looking at the account book. Seeing this man in military uniform come in, I secretly thought in my heart, "Here, my lord is really powerful, what a god." ”
Although the other party brought a lot of horses, Lu Yuan was not timid, and said to his own soldiers, "How much do you want to buy?"
"I want all the oil here. ”
"What a big breath! Do you have so much money? and you are not afraid of the wind flashing your tongue. ”
"Hmph, you are looking for death, you dare to talk to me like this, do you know who I am? You dare to say that I have no money!"
"I don't care who you are, I didn't say you don't have money, you said it yourself. I'm just saying you don't have enough money to buy all the oil here. Lu Yuan deliberately provoked this pro-soldier.
When the soldiers heard this, they immediately became angry, and said, "Shout, I still don't believe it, and say! How much is your oil a pound." ”
"Ten gold coins a pound!"
When the soldiers heard this, they were startled, and they took three steps backwards in a row.
The whole face twitched, "Why don't you grab it?"
Lu Yuan glanced at the pro-soldier with contempt, and just said lightly, "Love to buy or not." After that, I continued to look at the ledger.
Seeing Lu Yuan's contemptuous eyes, at this moment, this pro-soldier really wanted to beat him on the ground, and then snatch all the oil.
"Do you know who you're talking to?"
"Of course you know, isn't it just a poor soldier?" Lu Yuan raised his head again and once again despised this pro-soldier. After that, I buried myself in work again.
At this moment, this pro-soldier was already angry to the extreme, and he was about to make a move.
At this time, an immature but majestic voice sounded in his ears: "Stop, what do you want to do?
Then a man came out of it, probably seventeen or eighteen years old. But it invisibly exudes an inviolable temperament. Who is this man not Zhang Xuan?
Lu Yuan saw Zhang Xuan come out and arched his hand to Zhang Xuan, "Shopkeeper, this poor soldier wants to make trouble." Then he stepped aside.
Zhang Xuan looked at this pro-soldier coldly, and his strong will pressed towards the pro-soldier.
The soldier was pressed to his knees by this strong will.
Zhang Xuan just snorted coldly, "Get out!" and then his strong will was withdrawn.
This personal soldier stood up in a cold sweat, although Zhang Xuan told him to get out, but if he went back empty-handed like this, he would definitely be punished by the commander. It was not easy for him to climb to the position of this pro-soldier, and if he did the first thing for the commander, he would have done it badly. Then his life is over.
Knowing that Zhang Xuan's strength was strong, he no longer dared to be the slightest presumptuous, "I don't want to make trouble, I am a personal soldier under the commander of Xiangli, and I came to buy oil on the orders of the commander, wasn't it a silver coin and a pound of oil before, why is it a hundred times more expensive now than before." ”
"I can't do it on anyone's orders, I'm also doing things for King Qi Ji. Not long ago, I received a business from an officer in Tianfeng Kingdom and asked for a large amount of oil. The boss knew that this was a big business, and because the amount he wanted was too large and the supply exceeded the demand, he ordered ten gold coins a catty. You also know that we businessmen value profits, so no matter who you are, you will be offended this time unless you have enough money. ”
The original pro-soldier thought that Zhang Xuan would give him face after moving out, but he didn't expect this person to be bigger. Don't look at it as a commander, but his status and status are incomparable with King Qi Ji.
I can only leave in a huff.
In the large camp of the sample standing, the face of the sample stand is gloomy at this moment. "It seems that this King Qi Jiwang hooked up with the officers of Tianfeng Kingdom, see if I don't join him. ”
"Commander, by all means, although we have been at war with Tianfeng for many years, the two sides have not completely torn their faces, and the royal family does not prohibit the business between the two countries. We can't get involved in him, if we don't die if we fight a snake, we will be bitten by a snake! We can't afford to offend King Qi Ji!" the staff officer beside Xiang Li immediately reminded.
Only then did he come to his senses. was shocked, but fortunately, the staff officer reminded him, otherwise he would have really made a big mistake, and he didn't know how he died in the end.
He has guarded the border for more than 20 years, and he doesn't know how many battles he has fought with Tianfengguo, and he has long subconsciously believed that the two countries are a situation of endless death. But that's not the case.
Xiang Li sighed, "This person who bought oil must be that Li Ying, Feng Shuangcheng's oil may not be left by them last time, so pay attention to Zhicheng's head, he wants to have a salary from the bottom of the kettle! ”
"Take out a million gold coins and buy all his oil!"
took out a million gold coins, and even if it was a sample, it was a blood drop from his heart. That's enough to feed his army for a month. That is to say, the army will have to tighten its belts for the next six months, save money, and if there is no meat to eat, where will the soldiers have the strength to fight.
In the next six months, I am afraid that I will inevitably be cursed by the soldiers.
The pro-soldier was destined to die because of himself this time, but he didn't expect that Xiang Li didn't punish him, and immediately got up from the ground, and then excitedly took a bunch of silver tickets and a group of soldiers to the Weikai oil shop again, and secretly thought in his heart [Dare to underestimate me, dare to say that I am a poor soldier, now I see what else you have to say. It's time for me to raise my eyebrows. 】
"Little Er, come out, I want to buy oil!"
In fact, Lu Yuan was sitting at the counter, and he saw it as soon as the soldiers came in, but he still pretended not to see Lu Yuan, and deliberately shouted like this. In fact, I just want to pretend to be a force.
His arrogant appearance made people want to go up and kick him twice. I can't blame him, who let Lu Yuan be buried too hard last time.
In fact, Lu Yuan had noticed him from the moment the soldiers entered the door, but he still pretended not to see him. I raised my head when I heard him scream.
"Why are you again, poor soldier! If you don't have any money, get out of here, don't bother me with my business. ”
Hearing the words "poor soldier egg" again, the pro-soldier immediately became angry, but thinking of the identity of the other party, he still forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.
