Chapter 716: Ice and Snow Delivery
It is said that this layman came to a person, bowed his head and wore a hat to cover his face, Zeng Canghai turned around, and was suddenly shocked, so he attached a few words to the master, turned around and left.
When the master walked to the door, he waved his hand to stop everyone, clasped his hands into fists and said, "Come on, please come inside!" The master turned around and reprimanded the soldiers: "Your eyes will grow taller in the future, don't talk nonsense with your mouth open, offend the distinguished guests of the adults, and deduct your military salary for this month, please!"
The master took the man wearing the hat, waved his hand to signal everyone to disperse, and went straight to the backyard study.
"Your Excellency, the guest you were waiting for has arrived, and now you are waiting outside the door," said the master, bowing his head and clenching his fists.
"Let him in! Remember, no one is allowed to come even one step closer without my permission. The door opened, and Zeng Canghai's voice came from inside.
The master waved his hand to greet him, and the man wearing the hat bowed his head and came in, and the soldiers in the door withdrew from the door and covered the door back.
"The master is really on time, sit down! What you want has been prepared, but this newly sealed prince has come to Bashu, but I am afraid that there will not be such a blatant act in the future. Zeng Canghai waved his right hand, lifted the teapot and poured the tea.
I saw that this person took off the hat, it turned out to be a bald middle-aged man, I saw him put the hat on the table, and said with one hand: "There is Lord Lao Zeng, our master said, as long as this batch of goods arrives, you will not have less things, these silver tickets are fixed silver, and the other half will be settled after the matter is completed." ”
Zeng Canghai took the bald silver ticket, and after some counting, he hurriedly put it into his arms, and with a burst of joy in his heart, he handed the teacup to the person who came.
"Thank you, master! I accepted this silver ticket on behalf of my brothers, don't worry! The things you want arrived at the dock last night, and the king of Qingning is coming over today, and it is inconvenient for me to ship the goods, and I will arrange a carriage to send it in later, so you can wait for the goods in the old place at that time!"
"My lord, King Qingning has already come, and now he is waiting in the hall, it seems that he is taking over the military power, you hurry up and take a look!" The sound of soldiers reporting came from outside the door, Zeng Canghai stood up, stroked his beard and thought about it, and immediately sent his cronies to take this person out of the back door.
Zeng Canghai tidied up his official hat and shirt, and then surrounded by soldiers, went straight to the hall of the General Soldier's Mansion.
"Hahaha! Is the prince here? If you are slacking off and hope to atone for your sins, please sit down!" Zeng Canghai clasped his fists in both hands, and shouted to Songbai from afar.
Songbai then sat down, and his guards stood behind him with the steel knife at his waist, and looked at the generals in this hall angrily.
"It's really helpless to bother Lord Zeng today! It's that the emperor has an order before leaving, saying that this west has been eyeing the tiger, and sooner or later it will be a disaster for my Celestial Dynasty, and this king will be stationed to avoid his worries! I don't know what countermeasures Lord Zeng has?" Songbai went straight to the point, directly explained the emperor's intentions, stared at this Zeng Canghai and asked.
"Well, that's not a troublesome thing, during my reign, the king often exchanged letters, and the relationship was relatively harmonious, the imperial court has always been a policy of co-opting and supporting, and now they have traded with each other, I think it's okay to take precautions, but there is no need for all the grass and trees to be soldiers, what do you think? King Qingning!" Zeng Canghai smiled on his face, waved his hand to signal Songbai to drink tea, slowly picked up the tea bowl, and looked at it from time to time.
"Hahaha! So this is very good? It seems that Lord Zeng has managed well, and this king is worried about the sky, come and come! Drink tea and drink tea!" Songbai picked up the tea bowl, and the two of them each threw a hint of a smile.
After this greeting, Zeng Canghai handed over the military power and became the deputy general of Songbai, which was somewhat uncomfortable, and the master hurriedly accompanied the smiling face, squeezing his eyebrows for a while.
In the palace of Qingning, Chen Yuejing waited at the door with everyone, and finally when the lights were dim, she saw Songbai riding a horse and returning to the house with all the guards.
"How is it? This Southwest General Military Mansion is quite smooth, right? Are you embarrassed? I heard that this General Soldier is the Lord Zeng Canghai, but he is really capable? With the military and political power in his hands, he can be described as the Emperor of the Southwest Territory!" Chen Yuejing pulled the reins, and Songbai turned over and fell off his horse.
"Let's go back to the house! There are a lot of people here, and we have just arrived at the border of Bashu, so it is better to be careful. Songbai patted Chen Yuejing's shoulder, and everyone entered the mansion and left.
At the third watch in the middle of the night, there was a crowd in the dock warehouse, and I saw this group of black-clothed people coming over with torches, opening the door of the warehouse, and everyone entered one after another.
Without saying a word, the people took up the sacks on the ground and threw them directly on the carriage at the door, and for about a quarter of an hour, they hurried away in the carriage.
The group of black-clothed men bypassed the bustling streets, picked remote places and walked forward, and soon came to the city gate, only to see the officers and soldiers guarding the city open the city gate, and the dozen or so carriages immediately drove away.
Three days later, in the early morning, the snow had covered the ground, and the dozen or so carriages appeared outside the woods again, and kept speeding towards the snow-capped mountains in front of them.
"After this hill, let's give them the things and wait to go back and receive the reward! This was the master, waving his right hand and shouting at the carriage behind.
"Knowing Master, you can rest assured! When have we missed in so many years, besides, there is still our military camp in front of here, don't worry! It's okay!" The coachman who followed behind waved the whip in his hand and sped towards the front.
I saw that at the foot of the snow-capped mountain, a group of people were waiting anxiously, seeing that it was almost noon, but the sun did not have the slightest warmth, and bursts of white smoke came out of their mouths.
"Archmage, they should have arrived, right? These hands and feet are frozen, should they come?" the young man said as he rubbed his hands and spoke to the middle-aged man wearing a hat next to him.
"Dingyin has already been given to them, and the things are said to be delivered today, everyone should be at ease, it should be almost there, go to the roasting fire to keep warm! Don't you all stand here and wait?" The man wearing the hat raised his head, and it turned out to be the bald head of the General Soldier's Mansion! I saw him working with one hand, and there were words in his mouth.
"Drive!" There was a sound of whipping up the horses, and I saw the carriage on the snow gallop one after another, and stopped in front of the man wearing the hat.
With a wave of his right hand, the man in the hat came over and lowered the sacks from the carriage to the sleigh next to him, and everyone was busy with a burst of enthusiasm.
"Master, something has been sent to you, and the rest of the silver, you can take the time to go to the yamen, and we will meet later." The master saw that all the things were unloaded, so he turned the horse's head, and suddenly looked frightened......
