There are also ships
"General Guo, we will return the ship at dawn tomorrow, and we won't cause you trouble." Chi Zhongtian said.
"General Chi, you are also a general of the imperial court, don't you know that it is a big crime to dispatch ships without a military order?"
As soon as Guo Ming said this, he choked Chi Zhongtian at once.
Otherwise, why don't you just go back and ask the king to come?
Chi Zhongtian just raised this idea, and immediately dispelled it, not to mention how much time it would take Lang to come back and forth, just by taking a boat from there, I am afraid that the king will be frozen, that is an old man, and he can't get to the pool.
If you can't say it's good, then you can only come to the hard one.
This is also Chi Zhongtian's consistent practice now, first give a smile when you meet, if the other party gives face, then forget it, if you don't give it, then give some color to see.
"Oh? It seems that General Guo is not giving General Ben face? Well, General Ben is following the holy decree and has important matters, and General Guo insists on embarrassing me, so I can only send someone back to Beijing to report to the saint. ”
Chi Zhongtian said this to scare him.
Unexpectedly, Guo Ming didn't eat this at all, but said vigorously: "General Chi is at his own convenience! The last general is waiting here!" After saying this, Guo Ming immediately left quickly, and soon disappeared.
"You!"
Chi Zhongtian never thought that this Guo Ming would not eat it softly and hard, it was really stinky and hard.
After all, this is a military camp, and Chi Zhongtian can't do it, otherwise he will be unlucky.
"Understood!" Since Guo Ming refused to help borrow the boat, it was useless for Chi Zhongtian to stay any longer, so he could only go back depressedly.
As soon as he walked out for a while, Leng Buding saw a slight light in front of him, as if it was emitted by a few lanterns.
"General Chi!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the front.
Chi Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, took a closer look, and saw a person walking here.
After approaching, Chi Zhongtian saw clearly that it was Jiang Xianda.
"Master Jiang, why are you still here?" Chi Zhongtian clearly remembered that Jiang Xianda had just said that he would go back first.
"General Chi, have you borrowed a boat?"
When Jiang Xianda asked this, he was very cautious.
"Alas, no, General Guo doesn't give face. Chi Zhongtian said with a sigh.
"General Chi, don't blame General Guo, he doesn't dare to borrow the boat easily, so how big of a boat do you want to use?" Jiang Xianda asked in a low voice.
As soon as he heard this, Chi Zhongtian's heart moved, and he quickly replied: "It doesn't need to be too big, just sit down for three hundred people." ”
"Three hundred people like this, General Chi! I have a distant relative, who transports goods from the waterway for others, and there is a large cargo ship, and there is absolutely no problem for hundreds of people on it, but the conditions are a little simpler, and they are usually loaded, you see this."
"It's okay, it's okay! Lord Jiang, you're really a charcoal in the snow!" Chi Zhongtian was overjoyed, and the feeling of loss just now was swept away.
"General Chi is polite, when will you use it?" Jiang Xianda asked.
"The sooner the better!" Chi Zhongtian said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll let someone go to him, if it's fast, you can set off in half an hour, you can go back to the yamen with me first, wait for it, it's so cold outside, go to the yamen to drink a cup of hot tea and warm up!"
Jiang Xianda said this, in fact, he also wanted to be close to Chi Zhongtian, although Chi Zhongtian understood it in his heart, but he did not refuse, others provided him with convenience, and he also wanted to give face.
After Jiang Xianda came to the mansion, Jiang Xianda first sent someone to inform his relative, and then ordered someone to quickly get some food and drink and send it over.
"Master Jiang, I really don't know what to say, this time you helped me a lot, Chi will definitely thank you in the future!"
Chi Zhongtian said politely.
Jiang Xianda poured a full cup of tea for Chi Zhongtian and said with a smile: "General Chi's words are too outward, you and I are both from the court, both serve the court and the people, and the lower officials just do what they should do." ”
"Hey, Lord Jiang's words are wrong, there are many officials in the court, but not everyone thinks like Lord Jiang. When Chi Zhongtian said this at this time, it seemed that he was talking about Guo Ming.
"General Chi, this is my relative's own boat, I can call the shots, and I don't have so much trouble. Jiang Xianda heard the meaning of Chi Zhongtian's words, so he said such a sentence in passing, which can be regarded as excusing Guo Ming.
After the two chatted for a while, a person hurriedly walked in outside, more than five feet tall, dark, and wearing a single coat on a cold day, which was very peculiar.
"Cousin!
As soon as this person came in, he greeted Jiang Xianda.
Jiang Xianda turned his head and looked at it, immediately stood up, and then handed over a reproachful look, and then said: "This is General Chi of the imperial court, hurry up and salute!"
"The grass people have seen General Chi!"
"Don't be polite!" Chi Zhongtian knew that this person should be Jiang Xianda's relative.
"General Chi, this is my relative, I said Fuzi, your big boat, lend it to General Chi tomorrow. Jiang Xianda first said to Chi Zhongtian, and then said to that person.
After hearing this, the man named Fuzi immediately nodded and said, "This is easy to say, cousin, you have a word!"
"Haha, brother, refreshed!" Chi Zhongtian said happily standing up.
As soon as he heard Chi Zhongtian call himself a brother, Fuzi immediately became a little excited. He didn't know how big Chi Zhongtian's official was, but he knew exactly how big Jiang Xianda's official was, and even Jiang Xianda was so polite to him, it was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Don't dare, don't dare, the grass people don't dare to call the general brothers. Fukuko said excitedly.
"Come, the mere remuneration is not worth mentioning, and the right should be the ship's fare. Chi Zhongtian took out a silver ticket from his bosom and handed it over.
At this time, Chi Zhongtian was not short of money, when he left the capital, the emperor specially asked Chi Zhongtian to prepare 100,000 taels of silver tickets, which were kept for use on the road, of course, this money, Chi Zhongtian could only be used on the way to southern Xinjiang and back this time, and other things could not be used.
"General Chi, aren't you slapping the official's face!" Jiang Xianda hurriedly pushed Chi Zhongtian's hand back.
"Hey, Master Jiang can't say that, this brother is also a trader, the ship can't be lent to me for nothing, I heard that the brother is specialized in helping people transport goods, then my money should be regarded as a reward for transporting goods." After Chi Zhongtian finished speaking, he handed over the silver ticket again.
"General, put it away quickly, I can do things for you, that's the blessing of the grass people, don't dare to collect money!"
As soon as Jiang Xianda gave Fuzi a look, Fuzi immediately understood, and said this by the way.
