Teng Zijin twisted his hands in embarrassment and hesitated to say, "This, this... I haven't met General Tian yet."
Teng Ziyun's eyes widened and he scolded, "What's going on with you? There are so many people to feed. Waiting for one more day is another day of loss. Is there no progress at all in these days?"
Teng Zijin spread his hands, "Oh, how could I know? Normally, after a war, when they hear that we are salt and iron merchants, as long as they are not fools, the generals who lead the troops will definitely meet us. Who knows, General Na Tian will Why are you crazy? I haven’t seen anyone for three days, but I spent some money to find out that someone important seems to be missing and he is looking for him.”
Teng Ziyun paced back and forth outside the camp, planning carefully to see if there was any other way to sell the goods in his hands quickly.
Teng Zijin also frowned. There were quite a lot of people in a traveling trade caravan, and eating horse chews for one day was a huge expense for ordinary people. He hesitated.
"It is said that both the Xiongnu and the Xia Kingdom will suffer this time. If it doesn't work, sister, why don't you go to the Xiongnu and give it a try?"
Teng Ziyun counted down with his eyebrows, and angrily said, "Asshole, we all the countries in the Central Plains are fighting each other, but it is also our own business in the Central Plains. What are the Huns? They are jackals, they eat people without spitting out their bones. I just bury the salt and iron in the ground and throw them away." I won’t trade with the Huns in the river.”
Teng Zijin didn't say much. He was forced to do it. The most taboo thing for businessmen is that the goods cannot be sold and are being dragged. Once more than half is consumed, even if they are sold, they will lose money.
Three days later, in Yang Qian's tent, two doctors stared blankly at his injuries, as if they were in a state of shock.
One of the doctors shook his head and exclaimed, "The pulse is strong and the breath is long. I have been practicing medicine for thirty years. Such a physical condition is unheard of. This little brother actually recovered so quickly. If it were applied to an ordinary person, it would take at least more than three months." ah."
"Maybe he's taking advantage of his youth. Thank you to the old doctor for your dedicated treatment in the past three days, otherwise the kid wouldn't have recovered so quickly."
No matter what year it is, Yang Qian understands one thing: make more friends and make fewer enemies. Having multiple enemies for no reason just because of some tone problems is a very unwise thing in a big city. Who knows when it will happen? bump into.
Every time he saw someone making things difficult for the doctor, Yang Qian would sneer and say, "Please, your life is in someone else's hands, why don't you be sweeter?"
Although I have recovered enough to be able to move about in three days, I still need to take medicine later. It’s okay to be polite to the doctor. The main thing is that I don’t have much money on me now, otherwise I have to give him some money. Ji Zhao, this idiot, is two hundred and five years old, and he is eight years old. The concept of money still remains on gold.
It seems that I still want to make some insinuations about how money is calculated in this era.
"Ziyun, do you know how the war between Xia and the Huns is going recently?" Yang Gan asked obviously.
Teng Ziyun looked at the map, muttered something, and after a long sigh, he said, "There was another battle recently, and one of the Xia Kingdom's cities was lost. However, the Xiongnu always only plundered and did not defend the city. They probably lost all the goods in the city." After plundering, they will return to the grassland."
"Where is that city?"
Teng Ziyun pointed at the map, "Look, the Xia Kingdom is in the north. There is only one gate here, and there is a grassland. If the Xiongnu can break in this time, it is probably because the Baiyun Pass has been broken."
"Baiyunguan?"
"Well, look." Teng Ziyun pointed at the map and explained.
"You are a child of the royal family, so you may not know much about border passes. There are only two roads from Xia Kingdom to the grassland, one is Baiyun Pass, and the other is Dead Man Lake. There is no need to think about Dead Man Lake. Whoever goes there will die, so there is only one road. That is Baiyun Pass, I have been there a few years ago, and the pass there is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but the pass is in disrepair, which is probably the reason why the Huns were able to invade this time."
The map showed a pass and a large lake to the east. Yang Gan could understand it at a glance.
"The plunder this time was Tuncheng. The battle you fought should have been in Shoucheng behind Tuncheng."
When Fujizi Yun said this, Yang Qian understood. It seemed that they were attacking Tuncheng. They tasted the sweetness and wanted to attack again. Who knew that after the plundering of Tuncheng, the information had already been transmitted to Shoucheng, so there was That was a wild battle.
At this time, a guard trotted over and said in a hurry, "Mom, outside, a group of Huns is coming outside."
"What?" Brother and sister Fujikoyun stood up instantly.
"Damn it!!" Yang Gan was extremely depressed, why did he get into trouble with the Huns.
"how many people."
"More than a hundred people, fifty miles away from us, but it's very strange." The guard showed a confused look.
Fujiko Yun asked, "What's weird?"
The guard thought for a while, "The Huns are good cavalry and come and go like the wind, but this time they walked very slowly and pulled more than a dozen carriages. If they were escorting valuable things, the number of more than a hundred people was obviously less. According to the Huns If it is something valuable, it should be guarded by at least 500 cavalry."
After hearing this, Fujiko Jin suddenly became energetic, his eyes lit up and he said, "How about we lay an ambush, Bai Laiqi, if the plan is right, we should be able to take it."
Teng Ziyun started planning carefully. Yang Qian was shocked and waved his hands to persuade him, "I think it's better to forget it. The Huns' cavalry is very powerful. It's not a good idea to provoke me for no reason."
Teng Ziyun stared at Yang Gan for a while, then suddenly gave Yang Gan a chestnut.
"Ah? What are you doing?" Yang Qian covered his head in pain and looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Fujiko Yun hated the fact that iron cannot be made into steel and said, "You are from the Xia Kingdom. The Xia Kingdom is called the country of tigers and wolves. Why are you so timid? Didn't you fight with the Huns?"
Yang Qian covered his head and rubbed it, then shook his head after a while and said, "Would you believe it when I said I was lost and captured to fight?"
"Humph, you kid has always been glib. I don't believe what you say. Here, eat my food, drink my food, sleep with me..."
"Ziyun, you can't talk nonsense, I never slept with you!"
.........
"Boom!" A hairy chestnut hit Yang Gan on the forehead very accurately.
"Don't be a good boy. I'm sure there's something fishy on the carriage. Let's do this. If you can help us plan something, we can share 20% of the benefits with you after the event is completed."
"Are you serious? If you let me participate, how about the distribution of credit according to merit. The greater the credit, the more I will get." Yang Gan pricked up his ears. No matter what era or era, money will not expire, and the shelf life is very complicated.
From the fragmented memories, it was found that Ji Zhao was demoted because he made a big mistake in court, and his treatment was similar to that of a commoner. It was because the king couldn't bear it that he became a supervisor with a name but no power. The hundred-lai gold he received for the relief was already gone. He was almost defeated and needed some money-making projects urgently.
Teng Ziyun was stunned for a moment, never expecting that Yang Qian loved money so much, but Teng Zijin and the guards cast a look of disdain on him.
After thinking for a while, Fujiko Yun nodded lightly, "Okay."
"Sister, can he do it? I didn't expect that he is still young and has a big appetite, but he dares to make conditions with us. Your boy will give us money, food and drink, and, by the way, money for medical treatment."
Yang Gan chuckled and said, "You are still in business, so learn from your elder sister. This is called investing, you know? Wouldn't it be better to pay according to your work and gain the friendship of a young talent?"
"You~~~Young talented person? You have been beaten to death, but you are still young, and you are still talented~~~! Hahahahaha!!" Fujiko Jin pointed at Yang Qian and couldn't help laughing like a pig.
Yang Gan wiped his nose with his fingers. He couldn't help it. He didn't know how strong this body was. The problem was that he didn't even have the slightest martial arts skills. Only a fool would rush forward. But if there are hundreds of people, if you plan carefully, you should be able to do it. Not difficult.
"Come on, tell me, where did those people come from?" Yang Gan pulled the guard and began to ask about the specific situation.
The guard drew a simple map on the ground with tree branches. "I don't know where they came from, but the direction they are going to should be Tuncheng."
"Tell me why you think they will go to Tuncheng."
The guard said matter-of-factly, "Shoucheng and the others can't be defeated. Besides, after two battles, the defenders of Shoucheng will definitely go to move reinforcements. They only have Shoucheng in that direction. Estimating the time, they should be back soon." I carefully checked the wheel marks and there were heavy objects inside."
"What do the two roads you drew mean?" Yang Gan asked, pointing to the map.
The guard gestured with a tree branch, "They can go from here and pass us. There are two roads they can take. Both roads lead to Tuncheng."
After understanding the situation clearly, Yang Gan crossed his legs and thought about it, carefully considering what he could do. He was just an ordinary person, but he was a thief at the game. This situation was nothing more than an ambush.
"Yang Gan, how are your martial arts skills?" Fujiko Jin asked.
"I can barely get by~~~" Yang Qian didn't dare to finish his words. If one person attacks more than a hundred people, even if he doesn't die, he won't be much better. Besides, his injuries are not healed yet.
Fujiko Jin patted Yang Gan on the shoulder, "You are wearing the armor of a general from the Xia Kingdom, so you must have extraordinary martial arts skills. Let's do this. You attract the Huns at the intersection of the two roads. How about we cover them from behind?"
Yang Gan shrank his neck, you bastard, treat me like a piece of meat, this, this is too dangerous, and the most important thing is that this idea is a terrible idea. When he saw the expressions of Fuji Ziyun and the guards, he was completely confused. .
"Brother, your plan is good."
"Master Jin, I admire you."
Yang Gan...
"Is this a ploy? Don't pull it, brother, it will really kill people..."
Yang Qian shook his head fiercely, "I think this strategy is similar to a child's play house."
"Huh?" Fujiko Shin immediately said displeased upon hearing this.
"Humph, my plan doesn't work? You should plan one. Don't think that wearing a general's armor means you really think you are a general. Maybe you are just a deserter who slipped through the general's armor."
Everyone turned their attention to Yang Qian, and it was obvious that what Fujiko Jin said was indeed reasonable.
