"It's okay! I'm almost healed. I'll be able to ride a horse in less than two days!"
Seeing his brother's concerned look, the patriarch showed a hint of joy. He opened his arms, hugged Kang Sumi firmly, patted his arm hard, and finally asked with a smile: "Didn't I just come here a few days ago?" Huh? Why did you come to see me again today?"
Kang Sumi saw that his brother was in a good mood, and his mood improved accordingly. He stretched out his hand and pointed back, laughing loudly and said: "Haha, he's not your son Wulihan! He came to my house specifically to find me, saying that you are here with the caravan. , and he also brought the best wine, so I must come over and have a drink!”
"This little wolf! I wonder how busy you are on weekdays? You don't understand anything. Where did he go? Call him out!"
Knowing the reason why Kang Sumi came here, the patriarch couldn't laugh or cry. Then he looked in the direction Kang Sumi pointed. However, his son didn't see it, and saw a limp figure lying on the two people, like a dead dog.
How could young Wulihan know how terrifying the potency of the Xiao family's first wine was?
When I rode to find Kang Sumi, I didn't notice anything yet.
As we walked back, we started to get confused. Halfway through, everyone fell completely unconscious.
Fortunately, he had good riding skills and didn't fall off his horse even when he was drunk. Otherwise, if he went to treat his uncle to a drink this time, he would end up drinking his own wine instead.
"Oh, why are you so drunk?!" Seeing his son's limp appearance, the shocked patriarch hurriedly took a few steps forward, picked up his head and looked at it carefully. After confirming that his son was just drunk, he relaxed. Take a breath!
"Hey, I didn't get this done. He was already drunk when he went to find me!" Seeing that his younger brother felt sorry for his son, Kang Sumi quickly explained, for fear of being misunderstood by him. She was the one who got his precious son into this state. .
"You little brat! I idle around all day, and get drunk and unconscious in broad daylight!" The clan leader heard that he was the one who drank so much, and he raised his hand angrily, wanting to give him a few slaps! But when he raised his hand high, he felt a little distressed and couldn't move it down. In the end, he could only sigh and let his anxious wife come forward and get him back to the tent to sober up.
The two brothers, who hadn't seen each other for a few days, talked about old times.
The caravan man who came to ask for information carefully waited nearby until the conversation between the two ended. Kang Sumi laughed and asked where the wine was. The man then rubbed his face, put on a smile, and stepped forward to salute.
Kang Sumi had met the man several times before and had received many benefits from him, so he was naturally no stranger to him.
After the man finished the ceremony, Kang Sumi took out the dry wine bag from his arms, threw it to him, and said in a half-joking tone:
"Hey, Xiao family! Wulihan told me when he went to find me, you have this kind of fine wine here! Damn it, you used to fool me with bad wine! If you dare to fool me with defective wine this time, be careful. I won’t let you get out of this grassland.”
"Ah?" The man was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly took the wine bag, then pulled out the stopper and smelled it, and his face immediately changed color!
The caravan he led had been buying and selling wine for three years, so just by smelling it, he immediately knew that this was the Xiao family's top wine!
Let alone a caravan, even he could only drink wine of this level once or twice a year when he went back to the Xiao family to report on his work. How could he get it for Kang Sumi?
Tang Jian, Tang Jian, you old bastard! It’s such a good bait for fishing, but it’s really hurting me!
The man was complaining in his heart, but he still had to force a smile on his face: "General, this kind of wine... I really don't have it here..."
"Huh?" The smile on Kang Sumi's face gradually disappeared, and she hummed a word through her nostrils.
Seeing his appearance, the man's heart trembled, and he waved his hand quickly: "But don't be angry, the wine I brought this time is also very good! It is definitely not a bad wine! You can try it first!"
"Oh? You don't have this kind of wine here?"
It's a pity that even if the man is so humble, Kang Sumi still looks downcast! And as his eyes slowly narrowed, a vague and depressing aura also emanated from him, as if the surrounding temperature had dropped a bit!
The man smelled the danger keenly and immediately trembled all over!
While mentally cursing the Turks as white-eyed wolves! In the past, there were so many good things to feed them, but they were still unfamiliar with them, and they still fell out of favor!
While bending his waist a little more, he hoped to pretend to be pitiful and escape this disaster.
The air seemed to be frozen. Several Turkic soldiers who followed Kang Sumi held scimitars in their hands and stared at the man fiercely, as if they were going to chop him into pieces with their swords at the next moment!
At this critical moment, the clan leader intervened between the two of them and came to the rescue with a smile: "Brother, don't scare him! If he is so scared that he doesn't come here anymore, I will suffer a big loss! For such a small tribe now, We come here by caravan so that our tribe can gain some benefits.”
One sentence instantly broke the deathly silence around him.
Kang Sumi, who looked gloomy, suddenly laughed after his younger brother spoke, as if his face changed in a Sichuan opera, instantly changing from red to white, pointing at the sweaty man and said:
"Hahaha, look how scared you are! Forget it this time, remember to bring two identical cars with you next time you come here! I'll just drink a little less alcohol this time!"
"Yes, yes, definitely next time, definitely!"
When the caravan man heard Kang Sumi's words, he felt as if he was trying to save his life at the gate of hell. He didn't even bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and quickly handed over the wine bag with trembling hands.
He wasn't just pretending, he was really scared!
He has seen a lot of people on the grassland being moody and falling out whenever they want!
Although the Xiao family caravan is famous, this reputation may be useful to some ordinary tribes. If they really face a Turkic general with a heavy army... the outcome is really unpredictable!
After passing this level, the man invited the two of them to the tent that had been arranged with a more respectful attitude. Mutton, mutton soup, and fine wine were immediately served!
Seeing Kang Sumi's dozen or so men still guarding outside the tent, the man was busy setting up a table for them again.
By the time he had arranged everything, in the tent, Kang Sumi and his brother had already started changing cups and eating and drinking.
Turks have always been very uninhibited when it comes to food.
Even though Kang Sumi was a high-ranking general, he only had one mouthful of wine and one mouthful of meat, without the dignity of a superior person.
The jar of wine, which weighed five kilograms, was mostly gone in a short time. The few remaining fine wines in the wine bag were evenly divided between the two of them.
When the clan leader shook his body and was able to get out of the tent, an older man from Tang Dynasty quietly entered the tent carrying mutton soup.
