Chapter Forty-Nine: Pegasus Ranch Shang Xiuxun

Soon, there were beauties with him before, but now only Zhao Mingyuan is on the road alone.

However, although Fang Zetao did not mean to support Zhao Mingyuan's struggle for hegemony, his gratitude was not only verbal.

Jingling and Pegasus Ranch are not far away, and the two are at the corners of each other, which is an offensive and defensive alliance.

Therefore, after Fang Zetao knew that Zhao Mingyuan was going to Pegasus Ranch next, he immediately wrote a letter of introduction to Shang Xiuxun, the owner of Pegasus Ranch.

The letter was written in front of Zhao Mingyuan, and the content was that Zhao Mingyuan was his best friend, and he had a great favor to him, and hoped that Pegasus Ranch could treat him well.

Obviously, Fang Zetao had already guessed what Zhao Mingyuan was going to do at Pegasus Ranch.

The war horses produced by Pegasus Ranch are the same as the weapons of the Dongming faction, which are coveted by all forces in the troubled times.

Zhao Mingyuan's trip was obviously to buy war horses, and of course, he would definitely give it a try when it came to wooing Pegasus Ranch for support.

Therefore, Fang Zetao's letter can be regarded as having some weight, and Zhao Mingyuan is not for nothing.

As for inviting Zhao Mingyuan to Duju Mountain Villa, Fang Zetao didn't mention it.

For fear that Zhao Mingyuan would take the words of the scene as true, and suddenly agreed, wouldn't it be unpleasant for himself.

Therefore, Fang Zetao wants to strangle all possibilities in the cradle, and let Zhao Mingyuan get as far away from Wanwan as possible.

The Pegasus Ranch is in the southwest of Jingling County, and the distance between the two is only dozens of miles, and Zhao Mingyuan came to the Pegasus Ranch that afternoon.

The climate here is mild, the soil is fertile, and the products are abundant, and it seems that even the grass that grows is particularly rich, and it is a natural high-quality pasture.

And the terrain here is also extremely dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Surrounded by mountains on all sides, it encloses more than ten miles of fertile fields, and only two gorges in the east and west can be entered and exited, forming a natural barrier to the pasture.

There is a city tower at the exit of the gorge, and the pit that is three zhang wide and five zhang deep is dug in front of the building, traverses the mouth of the gorge, and the bottom is full of spikes. Access must be from the suspension bridge pass, quite a husband is the pass, ten thousand people difficult to cross.

Shang Xiong, the first-generation owner of Pegasus Ranch, was born as a military general, and he knows that a big fist is the last word. So he encouraged his subordinates to study martial arts and promote martial arts.

Therefore, everyone in Pegasus Ranch is brave and good at fighting, and is not afraid of bandits and strongmen, and has become a force that can protect the safety of the place.

This also won the reverence of the inhabitants of nearby towns, somewhat similar to the role of Duba Villa on Jingling.

This Pegasus Ranch was heavily guarded, and the guards on the city tower saw Zhao Mingyuan's arrival from a distance. Immediately, a team of elite horsemen came out of the city, crossed the suspension bridge, and galloped towards Zhao Mingyuan.

These dozen or so people are all dressed in black suits, embroidered with a winged Pegasus on their backs, and their crotches are all rare horses.

It is worthy of the Pegasus Ranch, not only the war horses are extremely good, but these cavalry are also extremely sophisticated, Zhao Mingyuan knew at a glance that this is a rare elite cavalry.

This small group of elite horsemen came to Zhao Mingyuan's approach, reined in their horses and slowed down, and stopped before Zhao Mingyuan's body.

Seeing Zhao Mingyuan coming towards Pegasus Ranch with a single sword, and dressed gorgeously, he didn't look like he had malicious intentions, but like a high-roller who came to buy horses.

They have also met a lot of such people, so they are not rude, but just ask about Zhao Mingyuan's identity and origin.

Of course, Zhao Mingyuan saw that the hands of the dozen or so of them were all on the swords, and it was obvious that they did not relax their vigilance in the slightest.

Zhao Mingyuan just said that he came to Pegasus Ranch to buy horses, and handed over Fang Zetao's letter of recommendation.

As soon as he heard that it was Fang Zetao's friend, Pegasus Ranch was a lot more relieved. When he read the letter in Zhao Mingyuan's hand, he was even more surprised.

Only then did they know that the opposite side was Zhao Mingyuan, who had long been famous all over the world, and the three masters of Wagangzhai.

Today's Zhao Mingyuan can be said to be known to everyone, and no one knows it. It's no longer the fledgling young man who was just starting out, and no one dares to underestimate it.

Knowing that the person who came was Zhao Mengyuan, even if their identity had not yet been determined, they did not dare to slack off in the slightest. While immediately sending someone to summon him, he invited Zhao Mingyuan to enter.

Obviously, even if Zhao Mingyuan's identity could not be determined, if it was only one person who entered, they were still full of confidence and believed that Zhao Mingyuan would not be able to cause such a big damage.

It seems that after years of stable life, these people in Pegasus Ranch have also developed an arrogant temperament and have already relaxed their vigilance.

The news of Pegasus Ranch was extremely fast, Zhao Mingyuan had just entered the city, and before he came to the inner fort, he saw a group of people waiting in front of the inner fort from a distance.

Zhao Mingyuan saw that the person at the head was a woman with a lot of manners, if she didn't guess wrong, she was the owner of Pegasus Ranch, Shang Xiuxun, one of the five beauties of the Tang Dynasty.

I saw her beautiful black hair pouring down her knife-like shoulders like two small waterfalls, which was unusually beautiful.

Her delicate outfit accentuates her outstanding face and tanned and shiny skin, exuding a scorching youth and enviable sense of health.

Her beautiful eyes are deep and unfathomable, and her thick eyelashes add to her mystique like a phoenix that ripples with the most fragrant and mellow fairy wine.

If you look at it from the perspective of the people, Shang Xiuxun has a slight flaw. That is, her skin is not fair enough, which does not meet the aesthetics of today's world.

But Zhao Mingyuan looks at it from the perspective of modern people, what an athletic beauty!

Apparently because of the perennial horseback riding sport, he has tanned his wheat-colored skin.

But Shang Xiuxun looked full of vitality in a strong suit, with tight and elastic lines, and a graceful posture, and she was the most perfect beauty Zhao Mingyuan had ever seen.

Zhao Mingyuan's eyes were like lightning, and this look passed away in a flash, and no one noticed his gaffe.

Shang Xiuxun on the opposite side also looked as usual and extended a warm welcome to him. No one saw anything out of the ordinary.

It's just that the blush on the tips of Shang Xiuxun's ears quietly exposed her heart.

It turned out that she had already seen Zhao Mingyuan's scrutiny.

Most girls are very sensitive to men's eyes, let alone a martial arts master like her?

She just didn't show it.

Soon, everyone in Pegasus Ranch invited Zhao Mingyuan into the hospitality hall, and after some introduction, Zhao Mingyuan also said what he meant.

Of course, I'm here to purchase war horses.

These are also expected by everyone at Pegasus Ranch.

Regarding Zhao Mingyuan's request to buy war horses, Pegasus Ranch naturally did not refuse. However, the specific number and price still need to be negotiated slowly.

After all, the price of war horses in Pegasus Ranch is not cheap, and Zhao Mingyuan even opened his mouth to thousands of horses.

This is a big deal, and Pegasus Ranch naturally needs to be cautious, and it is impossible to make a decision immediately.

It's not uncommon for such a big deal to take time to negotiate.

At this time, it was dinner time, and in the face of a distinguished guest like Zhao Mingyuan, Pegasus Ranch naturally had to set up a banquet to entertain him.

And Zhao Mingyuan also saw the world-famous beauty of Datang Shuanglong, and Shang Xiuxun tasted the food.

I saw Shang Xiuxun pick up a piece of rich fragrant lips with chopsticks, carefully use her snow-white small teeth that complement her skin tone, take a shallow bite skillfully, and chew her eyebrows lightly.

Zhao Mingyuan looked at her faint movements that could only be detected, but it wasn't until she had completely disappeared for a while that she seemed to find that Zhao Mingyuan was looking at her, so she suddenly took a big bite with some embarrassment and chewed it happily.

There is Shang Xiuxun, a foodie, and the chefs of Pegasus Ranch are all hired by her with a lot of money, and the delicacies on the table are carefully prepared, fragrant and delicious, and the color and fragrance are complete.

And with the delicate eating appearance of the beauties in front, Zhao Mingyuan felt that it was beautiful and delicious, and the meals seemed to have become extremely sweet, and it was also a lot of stomach.

Seeing Zhao Mingyuan eating like this, regardless of his image, Shang Xiuxun felt a lot more cordial, and showed a smile to Zhao Mingyuan.

This smile is obviously completely different from the formulaic business smile before, it is a lot more sincere, more beautiful, and more heart-warming.

Probably in the heart of a foodie, only the same foodie can make her really like it.

After the dinner, Shang Xiuxun only said a few words to Zhao Mingyuan, asking him to rest well. Tomorrow you can go to the ranch to see how the horses in their Pegasus Ranch are?

And they need to carefully consider Zhao Mingyuan's request.

This is also normal, just like the Dongming faction, the production of their war horses is also limited, and it is necessary to carefully consider which forces to sell them to.

Moreover, the situation of Pegasus Ranch and the Dongming faction is still a little different.

The Dongming faction is lonely overseas, and it is more free.

This is not the case with Pegasus Ranch, which is inland, making it even more difficult to remain neutral. It may not wait for the situation in the world to finally divide the winner or loser, and it is already surrounded by a certain force.

If the performance is inappropriate and offends any force, it may lead to destruction.

Therefore, it is all the more cautious and cautious.

For example, if they entertain Zhao Mingyuan today, it will make him dissatisfied. Even if it's just a normal transaction, sell it to Zhao Mingyuan's war horse. Maybe he thinks the price is too expensive, and after the unification of the world in the future, he may come to them for trouble.

When the time comes, it will be man-made swordsmen, and I will be fish, and there will not be much they can do.

But if the situation is confusing today, no one knows which side will win in the end.

If you rashly defect to one of the sides, if you make a mistake, it is very likely to bring disaster to Pegasus Ranch.

Pegasus Ranch has been around for more than 100 years since its establishment and has always adhered to a neutral stance. This is the only way to be able to meet the source left and right in the troubled times, and it has been as stable as Mount Tai for many years.

It's just that since Yang Guang's death, the world has changed faster and faster. The chaos in the world has begun to take shape, and after a big scuffle, a strong dynasty will inevitably be born.

Pegasus Ranch wants to stay out of it, I'm afraid it's no longer possible.

Shang Xiuxun rubbed his temples with a headache, and asked people to serve dessert after dinner.

Only the food can live up to it, and as for those troubles, let's talk about it tomorrow.
