The three people put down the wine bowls in their hands, and the person waiting on them refilled the wine bowls.
Batu chewed a piece of mutton in his mouth and said: "My people came back with a message that in the days after the new year, many four-wheelers came from Datong with the Tiger Flag and went to Dahei River. I think the Tiger Flag was in Dahei River." There are a lot of goods stored in the fort."
"This is a good thing." Su Nang said with a smile, "The more goods Tiger Character Banner delivers to their Dunbao, the greater the benefits will be in our hands in the future."
Batu nodded and said, "I think so too."
"We can't take it lightly." Kankantada on the other side said, "The news that we are going to attack the Tiger-Character Flag has spread out a long time ago. It is impossible that the people in the Tiger-Character Flag don't know about it, but they still sent such a flag to the Dahei River. If there are too many goods, they are either not afraid of us, or they have a way to deal with us."
"It's not as uncertain as you said." Su Nang said disapprovingly, "Go and tell Bu Shitu in person. Based on his soft temper, he will definitely not come forward to help Tiger Flag fight against us. The Ulut tribe Harbala is too busy taking care of himself now and has no energy to care about the tiger-character flag. Now the tiger-character flag is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, with its neck cleaned and waiting to be slaughtered by us."
"Call the Great Khan." Kankantada said with an ugly expression.
Su Nang frowned and finally said, "I know he is sweating."
After speaking, he picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine.
Batu on the side said: "Kankantada, you are just too careful. In my opinion, the Tiger Flag is probably broken. I know that we will attack them in autumn, so I want to stock up on more goods. Let’s make some more money before we take action.”
"Batu is right," Su Nang said, "The people in the Tiger Character Banner must know that they are no match for us, but it's a pity that they never thought that we would take action when the earth is civilized, instead of starting in autumn."
Kankantada turned the wine bowl on the low table with his hand and said, "I hope it's like what you said. Tiger Ziqi just wants to make more money at the last moment, rather than having a way to deal with us." '
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's drink." Su Nang asked the two of them to drink.
On the low table in front of the three people, there were sliced mutton and wine bottles. In the open space between them, a bonfire was lit with a roasted lamb on it. Someone nearby turned the roasted lamb from time to time and brushed some on it. grains of salt.
For ordinary herdsmen, being able to eat roasted sheep in winter is a luxury and they are reluctant to eat it. Every sheep is the property of the herdsmen.
But for Mongolian Taijis like Su Nang, roasted lamb is not that precious. You can eat it anytime you want, even if you are tired of it. Many Mongolian nobles prefer to eat the exquisite food of the Ming Dynasty.
"Taiji, Fan Yongdou is here." Wo Lunkuo walked in from outside.
Su Nang put down the short knife in his hand, frowned and said, "What is he here for?"
"It's better to meet him. He came from the Ming Dynasty. Maybe he brought us some good news." Batu looked at Su Nang and said.
Su Nang scratched the beard on his chin and said: "What good news can he have? I gave him so many opportunities, but he couldn't even fight against a tiger-shaped flag. And he said he was a famous and well-known businessman in Xuanfu." , it’s just rubbish.”
Batu said, "Once the tiger-character flag falls, this Fan Yongdou can replace the tiger-character flag. Now that the Ming Dynasty has tightened the horse market, we always need someone who can get what the herdsmen need from the Ming Dynasty."
"He's only of so much use." Su Nang said indifferently.
At this time, Kankantada said: "After the Tiger Flag falls, we cannot let Fan Yongdou take over what the Tiger Flag has in the grassland, otherwise another Tiger Flag will appear on the grassland."
"What Kankantada said makes sense." Batu nodded in agreement.
Su Nang smiled lightly and said: "There is nothing to worry about. When we take care of the Tiger Flag this time, we can take care of Fan Yongdou next time. Whether it is the Tiger Flag or Fan Yongdou, the wealth they earned from the grassland , will be returned to the grassland in the future."
Kankantada shook his head and said: "I think it's better to do what we did a few years ago. All Ming Dynasty merchants can come to the grassland to do business, and Ming Dynasty merchants are not allowed to control the business roads on our grassland."
Batu, who was sitting opposite, first looked at Kankantada and then at Su Nang, and immediately realized that the two people seemed to be arguing about business affairs, but in fact Khan was involved behind it.
Su Nang wants to seek greater power, but Kankantada obviously does not want Su Nang to become bigger.
At this time, he advised: "You two, stop arguing. Why don't you let Fan Yongdou come in first and see what happened to him? As for what happens after the tiger flag falls, it's not too late to discuss it later."
Su Nang nodded and immediately said to Wo Lunkuo: "Go and bring the people in."
Wo Lunkuo retreated.
Not long after, Fan Yongdou was brought in.
As soon as he came in, Fan Yongdou knelt on the ground and shouted: "The common people have seen three Taijis."
Su Nang, who was sitting cross-legged behind the low table, said calmly: "Don't be too polite, Master Fan. You are also an acquaintance of Bentai Ji here. Get up."
"Xie Taiji." Fan Yongdou bowed again and then stood up.
Batu said: "Dongzhu Fan, the last time you hurt Su Nang, you damaged a lot of armored cavalry. You still dare to come to see him. Aren't you afraid that Su Nang will drag you out and behead you?"
"The common people are afraid." Fan Yongdou bowed and said.
"If you are afraid, then you still dare to come to see him. Are you really not afraid of death?" Batu said.
Fan Yongdou bowed and said: "What happened last time, when the Cao Min lost goods worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, was ultimately the result of the Tiger Flag. They not only robbed the Cao Min's caravan, but also killed the people of Su Nang Tai Ji. , this tiger-character flag really deserves to die."
"You can evade it with just one sentence." Batu smiled faintly.
Fan Yongdou explained: "The common people are not shirking responsibility. In fact, the common people are also the ones who suffer."
After speaking, he looked at Su Nang.
Su Nang swallowed the mutton in his mouth and said, "You came to my place this time. Could it be that another caravan is preparing to come to the grassland?"
Hearing this, Fan Yongdou had a bitter look on his face and said, "Taiji, please stop joking. So many goods were damaged last time. The common people are unable to collect the same amount of goods in a short period of time, at least until the Tiger Flag is eliminated." , the grassland people don’t dare to send caravans to the grassland anymore.”
These words were his true thoughts in his heart.
Fan Ji's caravan had been robbed so many times in a row. He was really afraid and did not dare to send another caravan to the grassland. Whether it was Tumut or Horqin, he did not dare to send another caravan there.
