Chapter 595 is one more problem
"Great Khan, don't agree to his terms, if you change these slaves into boots and fill their stomachs, they are likely to rebel and escape!"
"Yes, don't promise him, this Liang has bad intentions, please ask the Great Khan to punish him!"
The ministers seconded the rebuttal.
Song Che laughed.
"Liang Ren, why are you laughing!"
"I'm laughing, it turns out that King Hu's palace is the same as the mediocre ministers in our Liang court, and they always like to complicate simple things to show their loyalty and wisdom, but in fact they are extremely stupid," Song Che scolded sarcastically and angrily, and said:
"Excuse me, I only give one more big cake a day, my stomach is full at most, and I work all day long, where do I have the strength to escape? What's more, in the cold winter of November, the grassland is covered with three feet of snow, and after leaving the capital, even if there are horses, it is difficult, let alone a group of slaves? Even if they resist and flee, will your country's heavily armored iron cavalry let it go? Alas...... Song has a certain compassionate heart, but in the eyes of the ministers, it has become ill-intentioned, how can it not make people laugh and be generous? ”
He turned to Timur again, bowed his hand, and said in a loud voice: "Song can use the head of the item to guarantee that if the slaves are warmly clothed and fed, the built city wall will be more solid, and please ask the Great Khan to know it!" ”
"Hey, Mr. Song doesn't have to fight hard, this is your bet with the prince, of course Ben Khan will agree."
As soon as Timur's voice fell, the second prince Kuimu said: "Father Khan, Erchen has also been puzzled by a difficult problem for a long time, and the problem of Mr. Song's eldest brother has convinced Erchen of Mr. Kui's talent, so he also wants to ask for advice,"
Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Song Che again, and said, "If Mr. Song can solve my doubts, I hereby promise not only to change those slaves with boots, but also cotton boots with cotton, how about it?" ”
Song Che smiled: "It seems that you can't refuse, right?" ”
The corners of Kuimu's mouth rose slightly, and he said, "But if Mr. can't answer, how about writing off the promise given by my eldest brother?" ”
Song Che smiled: "Yes." ”
"Good! Seeing that Mr. Song is so confident, he must be not afraid of challenges, so let's serve them directly! Kuimu clapped his hands and said loudly.
I saw three servants, each holding a large wine jar, two wine bottles of different sizes, and three identical wine glasses walking up to the main hall.
Kuimu pointed to a group of wine utensils and said: "This jar is our Hu country's craft mare's milk wine, two wine grapes can hold five cups of wine, one can hold three and a half cups, Mr. Song can only hold twice, to measure exactly three cups of wine; ”
He pointed out a finger at Song Che again, and said in a provocative tone: "Naturally, this question can't be so simple, so I'll give you a stick of incense to think about, Mr. Song, please challenge?" ”
The servant brought the censer and set out to burn it.
"Wait." Song Che stopped the slave who burned incense, "One stick of incense is really too much. ”
"Oh? Hahaha......" Kuimu laughed: "It's indeed a bit excessive, so in this way, I'll give you two sticks of incense, it's enough, right?" ”
Song Che shook his head with a smile, and didn't say much, he went straight to the wine utensils, held a wine grape in each hand, and said while demonstrating:
"The first time, I filled the five cups of grapes, and then poured them into the three and a half cups of grapes, so that there was only one and a half cups of wine left in the five cups of grapes;
Then, I emptied the three and a half cups of grapes and poured the remaining one and a half cups of the five glasses into it, so that there was still two glasses of capacity left in the three and a half cups of grapes;
The second time, I filled the five cups of grapes and poured out two glasses into three and a half cups of grapes, so that there were three glasses left in the five cups of grapes. ”
In front of everyone, he poured the remaining mare's milk wine from the five cups into three cups in turn, and they were full and the same amount.
Kuimu's face twitched, and he forced a smile and said, "Mr. Song is really smart, so ...... and this jar of mare's milk wine will be given to thee to drink. ”
Song Che smiled and thanked him, and did not forget to remind: "There are also the cotton shoes of the slaves, and I have also thanked His Highness for them." ”
"Hmph, the two royal brothers are really useless, and they actually came up with some simple questions, aren't they embarrassing?"
The third prince, Bach, stepped forward.
Compared to the eldest prince and the second prince, he is much taller and larger, and he is obviously a reckless man.
He pointed at Song Che and said bluntly: "Since the two royal brothers have already solved the problem, I can't watch from the sidelines, but I also have to compete with you, if you win, not only will I give those slaves cotton boots and flatbread, but I will also give them extra cotton clothes to keep warm!" ”
Song Che squinted his eyes and didn't say a word, this simple-minded and well-developed goods would never be able to fight, right?
Bach said in a tone that could not be refused: "I heard that Mr. Song has hunted brown bears and once hunted a snow leopard in the forest of Qilian Mountain, so he must be very good at archery, so this prince wants to compete with you in archery!" ”
Song Che didn't agree for the time being, but said: "The third prince must have heard it wrong, Song is just a businessman, you look at my appearance, and I am not a person who practices martial arts-"
"Mr. Song." Chachai interjected: "I saw you shoot a red deer with a bow and crossbow, and you hit it with one blow in the ice and snow, and your vision is not good in the evening, you can't be too modest!" ”
Song Che's eyes were cold, if it weren't for the main hall, he would have to slap this guy in the mouth again.
"Yes, if you don't dare to accept my challenge, then the promises of the eldest brother and the second brother will all be nullified, and those damn Daliang slaves will get nothing!" Bach's eyes widened, naked menace.
Since everything has been said and done, Song Che seems to have no reason to refuse, so he only agrees.
"Good! The rules are as follows, 80 steps away from the square, set up three targets, each person three arrows, whoever has the most target rings, who wins. After Bach finished explaining the rules, he glanced at Song Che and asked deliberately:
"Mr. Song, can you open a few hundred catties of bows?"
Song Che shook his head, "I can open a slingshot, but I can't even open a hundred catties of a bird bow." ”
"Hahaha......" Bach laughed proudly, "Looking at the entire Hu country, except for General Chachai, who can open an eight-hundred-pound hard bow, it is the highest of six hundred pounds for this prince, if Mr. Song can't even open a hundred-pound bird bow, don't say eighty steps, you can't shoot thirty steps, right?" So what could it be like? ”
"Hey, Your Royal Highness the Prince, Mr. Song is a foreign guest after all, they Liang people have always been feminine and weak, and it is too bullying to use a hard bow, so in my opinion, let him use a hard crossbow." Hu Chen persuaded him.
"Well, let him use a hard crossbow, or it will get out, and say that I am bullying the guests," Bach beckoned, waving his hand:
"Someone! Set up a target in the square, and then take my golden eagle bow! ”
