"Marquis Lu, don't get ahead. There are some things that you and I can't decide! That Gao Shikamaru is not an ordinary person. Even if I agree to your request, I'm afraid you won't be able to take this person away without the Holy One's will!"
From the moment Yang Ming stepped onto the flower boat, Zhang Gongjin was always paying attention to Yang Ming's every move, including his chat with Gao Shikamaru.
But Yuan Tiangang was different. If it weren't for Shenquan Island, he would be able to know Yang Ming's movements at any time. This is one of the young people Li Shimin is currently paying most attention to!
"I will take care of the Holy Emperor's side. I am sure to convince the Emperor. But I hope that the governor can help me take good care of him before the new decree is issued. This guy may become our cash cow in the future!"
It's not easy for ordinary people to leave, not to mention that Takashikamaru is a noble from a foreign country. Yang Ming understood Zhang Gongjin's words, but he still wanted to use the concept of money to persuade Li Shimin.
A king who can be worshiped by all nations, Yang Ming believes that he has a different mind!
"We? Marquis Lu, we can't make some money! Businessmen pursue profit. Under the temptation of huge profits, they sometimes become obsessed with profit and do things that go against their conscience without knowing it!"
It can be seen from Zhang Gongjin's tone that he disdains foreigners and is even ashamed to make money from them.
"Captain, you are overthinking. It is not the money that I am doing business with! You said that I do this and that... that and that... Is it possible that Goguryeo will soon become our vassal state again!"
Yang Ming saw that everyone present was no longer an outsider, so he revealed all his inner plans.
"I think this plan is feasible. It will hit Goguryeo's economy without spending a single soldier. Marquis Lu, you can also write my name next to it when you submit the letter. I second it!"
Li Chunfeng didn't want to miss out on this huge achievement. After careful consideration and thinking that it was okay, he also wanted to take advantage of it.
Zhang Gongjin and Yuan Tiangang looked at each other with lingering fears. This young man is so terrifying that he cannot be an enemy in his lifetime.
It has only been a short time since he landed on the island, and in the blink of an eye he has devised a conspiracy to destroy the country. There is still no solution to the problem. As long as Koshikamaru returns to Goguryeo, the whole country will be in turmoil!
Liu Yan'er beside her was analyzing Yang Ming's plan while secretly applauding her father.
In the vast sea of people, you can help me find such an excellent husband!
"Marquis Lu, my situation is too small. I never thought that I could still operate like this! I will provide delicious food and drink to this Gaoluwan on Shenquan Island, waiting for you to take it away after receiving the imperial edict!"
Zhang Gongjin patted his chest and laughed, making a promise to Yang Ming.
This young man landed on the island for less than a day. Not only did he dig out the spies hidden on the island, but he also promised to let Sun Simiao heal him. What's more important is that you can also take credit for your work. It's so cool to follow this guy!
"Okay! I'll leave it to these three adults to deal with matters outside Qingzhou City! Saving people is like putting out fire, so I will take three hundred elites to Qingzhou City first..."
Yang Ming was about to leave, but Liu Yan'er was in a daze, looking worried.
"Miss Liu, what's wrong?!"
From the beginning to the end, the Liu family and her daughter had been worried about being left on the island. Now that they had finally left, why couldn't she be happy?
"Mr. Yang, I..."
Liu Yan'er hesitated to speak, as if she had discovered something terrible!
"Yan'er, if you have anything to say, just tell me! The two uncles were teasing you just now. We have known each other for decades, and they didn't mean any harm!"
There is no place for women to stay in college!
This boy surnamed Yang has not yet agreed to the marriage, so his daughter only tells him when something happens, and her arms begin to bend outward.
But fortunately, this Yang brother is much better than Fu Dequan in terms of family background and personality, and his behavior is relatively stable. I think Yan'er can be entrusted to him directly.
"This stone palace is too cold and damp to live in for a long time. According to records in ancient books, psychic beasts must be fed in this sacrificial place! I think Governor Zhang's illness is not reflected, and it should be related to living in the stone palace!"
Liu Yan'er touched the ancient words on the stone pillar and said nervously.
"Psychic beast?!"
Everyone present was interested, including Yuan Tiangang. They had never heard of any psychic beast in their lives.
"Yeah! This is an ancient sacrificial ceremony. Each tribe believes in different gods, and the totems are also diverse. The more common psychic beasts are spiders, scorpions, giant pythons, white tigers..."
Ancient people were more reverent to gods and prone to fear of unknown things. When encountering this kind of thing, Liu Yan'er was so frightened that she completely forgot that there were several peerless masters present!
"I think they were feeding bungara snakes!"
Yang Ming shrugged his shoulders to express his understanding. Even in modern times, there are still people who keep venomous snakes as pets. It is even less surprising two thousand years ago!
"Core snake?!"
Everyone exclaimed that they couldn't figure out why not long after Yang Ming landed on the island, he found out that the people living on Shenquan Island believed in the silver krait!
"Yeah! The bungara snake is very venomous. Its head is oval-shaped, its tail is narrow, and its body is covered with white and black rings. This kind of snake looks very good, and it is understandable that it is used as a tribal totem!"
While everyone's jaw dropped, Yang Ming took off his belt and compared it to a silver krait, explaining it vividly to the people present. . .
"Luhou, have you seen this snake?!"
Seeing that Yang Ming was frothing at the mouth, Zhang Gongjin asked curiously.
"The boy once caught one by accident..."
"Didn't you say that this snake is poisonous? Doesn't it bite you?! And how do you know that the people on Shenquan Island believe in bungara snakes! We have been on the island for several months and have never encountered one!"
Li Chunfeng is more stubborn. He feels that Liu Yan'er and Yang Ming are just trying to catch the wind. They have been on Shenquan Island for so long and have never encountered a snake.
"Let's put it this way, bungara snakes are cold-blooded animals. They will choose to hibernate when the weather gets cold! And their normal living habits are to stay in the day and come out at night, so it's normal that you rarely see them!"
Yang Ming almost cursed, you hide in the palace every day to eat and drink hot food, you are like my elder brother, who is running all over the mountains, eating and sleeping in the open air, working so hard every day, I don’t know what you are doing!
"As for the belief in the Bungara serpent, as long as you look carefully, you can find that both the plaque of Gao Laozhuang and their farm tools are carved with a vivid Bungarus snake..."
Only now did Yang Ming know why he couldn't enter Gao Laozhuang at will. It turns out that they have a bungara snake in every house, and they don't let others in for fear of scaring people.
"This is just reasoning. We have to rely on facts to speak. After all, hearing is false and seeing is believing. Luhou, wait a moment, I will call their clan leader over, and we will know after asking!"
As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat!
The atmosphere was quite tense just now, and everyone was preparing for the battle. It's good now. What Liu Yan'er said made everyone want to gossip and want to find out what happened to their clan leader!
