Chapter 494: Unspeakable Identity

The next day, the General's Palace.

Knowing that Ran Fang would come today, Meng Tian was waiting in the mansion early in the morning.

After all, he is an official from Xianyang City, and he still has to give face that should be given, especially for the sake of the face of those cotton clothes, he can't snub Ran Fang.

Although he can't explain Ran Fang's identity, Meng Ziping beside him knows that it is enough, and he will still cooperate with him to bring this matter back.

When Ran Fang arrived, he found that the gate of the General's Mansion, which he had passed by before, was still closed, and it was open at the moment, and the guards at the door stood straight so that people did not dare to approach.

When he saw his carriage coming in this direction, Meng Ziping, who was standing at the door and waiting, immediately stepped forward.

"Dare to ask, but the head of the Ran family?"

Lian Jin was like this guard, his expression was very serious, and he nodded slightly: "Exactly." ”

Hearing his affirmative answer, the expression on Meng Ziping's face immediately changed to a smile, and he saluted Ran Fang in the carriage, regardless of whether Ran Fang could see it or not.

Then, he spoke: "The general of my family is waiting, please get off the carriage of the Ran family." ”

Originally, someone dared to stop in front of Meng Tian's door, which was enough for people to be shocked.

Now let Meng Ziping personally greet him, which makes people speculate about who is sitting in the carriage?

After hearing his name for Ran Fang, people also knew that he was just a businessman, and they had a greater interest in Ran Fang, after all, what identity of a businessman could be treated like this by Meng Tian?

That's a rarity.

"Who is this Ran family master?"

"I don't know, I heard that the county guard also invited him to a banquet yesterday, and met General Meng at the banquet, saying that he wanted to buy the courtyard next door to General Meng."

"I see, then the guards have money, no wonder General Meng is so polite to this person, it turns out that he is giving money."

"Yes, this will soon be winter, if the general can have some more money, there is no need to worry about the Huns coming to disturb."

As a citizen at the border, he attaches the most importance to his own safety, and Meng Tian, as a "hero" who guards them, will naturally pay more attention to it.

Moreover, there is also a little more understanding.

Listening to the people's conquest of Meng Tian, Ran Fang also knew the meaning of Meng Ziping's coming to pick him up.

With Meng Tian's attitude, he will probably be better to do business in this Jiuyuan City in the future.

The people here are also more simple, and can accept the closeness of officials and merchants, but it seems that they are limited to being so tolerant of Meng Tian.

This is Meng Tian's charm, which is incomparable to other officials.

When Ran Fang and the others left the General's Mansion, the gate was immediately closed, blocking out some of the sounds.

When Meng Ziping saw Meng Tian, Meng Tian sat there and looked at Ran Fang, who was standing there, and the two were obviously looking at each other.

In just a few seconds, Ran Fang determined that Meng Tian and him were the same kind of people, and it should be a good thing if this kind of person cooperated.

This is also Meng Tian's idea, and it is rare to see people who can have such determination in front of themselves.

It seems that this Ran Fang still has his uniqueness.

"Hahaha, the head of the Ran family, please take a seat!"

After the air condensed for a few seconds, Meng Tian got up and invited Ran Fang to sit down, and then looked at Meng Ziping with a look.

Immediately, Meng Ziping understood that this meant that he wanted him to ensure the safety of his surroundings.

He left and bowed, and left the room with Lian Jin, giving Meng Tian and Ran Fang a safe place to speak.

After making sure that there was no one around, Meng Tian took the initiative to speak: "I didn't expect that the legendary commander was so young, but I was a little impressed." ”

"Listen to my younger brother, you took the initiative to send those cotton clothes, and I thank you for the soldiers on this side."

Since his lord talked about this matter, then Ran Fang was not restrained.

But in front of Meng Tian, he also knew that he couldn't get an axe, so he just smiled politely.

There was a lot of humility in that smile, after all, the little thing he gave was not comparable to Meng Tian in the eyes of guarding the border for so long.

"General Meng doesn't have to be so polite, these are all things that should be done."

"You have been guarding Daqin here for so many years, it should be me who thank you, otherwise I would not have a comfortable life even in Xianyang."

"If I can help the general solve the problem of the Huns this time, it can be regarded as my trip in vain."

"Therefore, some questions about the Xiongnu still need to be told by General Meng, after all, General Meng is still familiar with them."

These words made Meng Tian very comfortable to listen to, although he didn't think so, but he was still very happy when someone said so.

Therefore, even the eyes that looked at Ran Fang were a lot kinder.

"Hahaha, you're welcome."

"Your Majesty has already told me about the commanding envoys, and now the land of the Xiongnu is starting to get cold, and they are all meat-based, so food is very scarce."

"But if we trade with grain, although we can temporarily keep the Huns from going to war with us, this is not a long-term solution after all."

"So, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, I wonder what the command room thinks?"

"But if you can find a way to buy some Xiongnu war horses, it will greatly improve the combat effectiveness of Great Qin, which is really a good thing."

Buying a war horse is an obsession and the most important thing for Meng Tian, who has been fighting against the Huns.

But he didn't have this strength, and he didn't know if Ran Fang had it, so when he said it to Ran Fang, he was still a little shy.

After hearing his thoughts, Ran Fang also nodded vigorously, not feeling that he was a little fantastical.

"At this time, I also think so, if I can change some war horses, it will definitely be a good thing for Daqin."

"But this war horse is not so easy to obtain, so it needs to be considered in the long run."

"The things traded with the Xiongnu this time not only include things to eat, but also some things to wear and use, as well as some novelties, which have a strong attraction to them."

"It has not yet reached the point of food shortage, so it is most appropriate to trade with them at this time, otherwise it will be too late to be able to attract their interest."

"So, the sooner you do business with the Huns, the better."

Meng Tian also knew about this matter, otherwise he would not have rushed back so quickly, just to discuss this matter with Ran Fang.

However, when he heard Ran Fang's question, he still showed a little embarrassment.

"I can have someone send you to the border with the Xiongnu, but I don't know much about whether the merchants of Daqin are accepted among the Xiongnu."

"After entering, there are not many things I can help with, so this matter is still a bit risky, and you have to think about it yourself in advance."

"But if your identity is discovered, I can still send troops to rescue you, but you may have to think about the process yourself."

"Are you okay with that?"
