Chaos in Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 63: The nature of the businessman

Views:

Xie Yun and Zhou Lie didn't know what medicine was sold in Qin Meng's gourd, but the chief wanted them to follow, so there was no need to ask carefully, just follow.

The three men drove to the Chinese Army's camp, and told the guards of the camp to report, saying that his younger brother Qin Meng had come to visit his eldest brother Luo Fang.

This relative is not cheeky.

According to Qin Meng's logic, you went to me, called a few virtuous brothers, and took my things away. Then I came to you, asking you to call you the eldest brother, which is justified.

After a while, the doorman ran back and said to Qin Meng respectfully that General Luo would like to please.

Qin Meng took Xie Yun and Zhou Lie into the camp of the Chinese Army. This was supposed to be the place where Yang Lin called the generals to discuss matters. Because Yang Lin was with Chang Sun Sheng and Luo Fang was still acting as the commander, it became his office. local.

Seeing Luo Fang, Qin Meng led Xie Yun and Zhou Lie to kneel down on one knee. I have seen it in the courtesy of the army: "Humble post Qin Meng, led his subordinate Xie Yun Zhou Lie, met General Luo, met all generals."

"Brother virtuous, please get up quickly, the prince is under the account, as long as it is not a major event, it doesn't have to be this way." Luo Fang knew. Many people here have been to Qin Meng's. Therefore, there is something special about Qin Meng. I believe no one will have any opinions.

Sure enough, Qin Meng stood up, and everyone no longer had a straight eye when seeing Qin Meng in Shuijianling Daying. On the contrary, most people smiled and nodded and greeted Qin Meng.

"Brother Xian has always been ill, so in military affairs, he didn't ask him for help. From this point of view, Brother Xian is getting better. Is there something going on in the army?" Luo Fang asked eagerly.

Qin Meng clung his hands: "I have trouble, my brothers miss my little brother's inferior body. Now the military affairs are busy. My little brother can't help me at all. He is extremely ashamed and ashamed. I wanted to build a few more weapons to help my brothers kill more enemies. I don’t want to, because my ability is limited, I am even more ashamed, even more ashamed."

Luo Fang felt that Qin Meng’s words were a little wrong. Although he didn’t have too much contact with Qin Meng, Luo Fang was certain that Qin Meng would never go to such an important place as the Chinese Army’s Great Account for no reason. , More unlike the bravery and courage of the Turkic cavalry of his command headquarters.

"Brother Xian, what has happened to you?" Luo Fang tried to ask.

Qin Meng said: "Brothers, brothers have something to ask you brothers for help, but the need for help is a little big, I am really ashamed to speak out, ashamed to speak out."

Although most of the generals are sloppy generations, they are all well-informed. As soon as everyone's eyes passed, they all confirmed the message from each other's eyes: This kid doesn't look like a good person.

Luo Fang pondered for a moment and said: "If there is anything you need to help, Brother Xian, even if you speak, as long as it is within your power, I...we will definitely help."

Luo Fang wanted to agree by himself, but when the words came to his lips, he temporarily added us.

After all, Qin Meng has done something to kill Yuanduo, who knows what this kid is begging everyone to do.

"Brothers and brothers, here is the need for some war horses. Brothers will definitely not ask your brothers to squad their war horses if they are not on the march. But on the day of triumph, can you give some of the war horses captured to the younger brothers?"

As soon as these words came out, all the generals looked at each other.

All seizures on the battlefield should be turned over in accordance with the rules.

However, everyone knew that most of them were turned in, and some were kept privately. It was agreed upon, and everyone opened a glance and passed.

The Central Plains produces few war horses, so the seizure of war horses is a great achievement! Besides, who doesn't want to increase their strength? If you really get a war horse, you have to hide it secretly and give it to you? Dream it!

Luo Fang frowned. After thinking for a while, he said, "Brother Xian, in order to support the army's killing of the enemy, you don’t have any private possessions, and you have contributed all your family wealth. If you reciprocate, your brother can’t see that you have a shortage of horses, isn’t it? That’s the case, but there are seizures. I promise you five horses. How about supporting Xiandi?"

Qin Meng quickly took a deep look: "Thank you, brother!"

After thanking Luo Fang, Qin Meng looked at the other generals with a smile, and his eyes seemed to say that General Luo Fang had given five war horses. Don't you mean

The generals seemed to be choked, and struck Tehuazi, this kid is really not a good person.

Ding Liang said, "Brother Qin Meng, I have already given you three war horses. If there is no war horse, I will give you two more war horses. How about?"

"Thank you brother!"

Qin Meng turned around and thanked his brother for five war horses. In an instant, fifty horses were already accounted for.

When the generals looked at Qin Meng again, they were already a little squinted. They thought that they had taken advantage of Qin Meng's weapons, but he didn't expect that this kid had such a thick face that he would come back with such a thick face.

"Brothers show your love, and the younger brother will remember the five times. In order to repay all the brothers' love, the younger brother is willing to make a few transactions at a loss with your brothers. Are you interested?"

Everyone, including Luo Fang, opened their eyes and couldn't believe their ears.

What's the matter? Doing business? Just come over at Qin Meng to beg for a war horse, no one would think of Qin Meng as a gentleman of Qianqian, on the contrary, this kid is a bit of a wild goose plucking his hair, and he is doing business with him, but don't lose yourself.

"Dear brothers, why do you look like this? I'm not going around in circles anymore. All of my brothers have seen Hao Meng, oh, it's the stupid man led by Jian Zuo, the stranger in his hand, right? That's a good thing, everyone My elder brother is from a military background. I definitely know the goods. Think about it, think about it, if there are more than a hundred healthy soldiers, holding a long sword, and putting out a long line of skirmishers to face the Turks, let alone cavalry. Even if the Turkic rides heavily, it will be diarrhea."

In the hearts of all the generals, they all feel that this is a pit that Qin Meng dug, but when you think about Hao Meng's big sword, it will be a stab.

Who wouldn't want to have such a great killer

Ding Liang felt a little dry lips, licked and said, "Brother Qin Mengxian, what do you mean, just say it."

Qin Meng cleared his throat. Seriously said: "The old man is not deceived, fair trade, two war horses, exchange a strange knife."

"What? A Modao for two war horses? Qin Meng, your kid is crazy, right? You dare to open your teeth, if I get fifty Mo swords from you, I have to use a hundred war horses. Change, isn't it?" Ding Liang was really anxious. The beards like steel needles were all braced.

Qin Meng said in a harmless manner: "That's right, it's this account, it's easy to calculate. Brother Ding, don't be too expensive. It's different from that of the sword. The current skill of the sword is up. Ten people work together to fight four in a day, but Modao can only produce one in two days, and even if it is shorter than the size used by Hao Meng, it will cost nearly 20 kilograms. The craftsmen suffer hardships and suffer crimes, so they can’t be given. Is it a guilty money? A penny, a penny, this is not my black heart."

In the eyes of the generals, they did not hide their anger, especially Ding Liang.

Ding Liang pointed at Qin Meng and said, "Qin Meng, this blacksmith team is not yours personally. It's public! I don't believe it, you dare to take public things and seek private benefits for you!"

The audience would love to hear this. Although they did not agree and attacked Qin Meng in a group, the eyes of everyone had already expressed their hatred of the same enemy.

Qin Meng laughed and said, "Brother Ding, don’t be restless. Don’t be restless. Just now, when you came out from the prince, the prince already knew something about the blacksmith team. Moreover, the prince said, the blacksmith team will not allow anything. People go to ask for things in private, but if they need them, they must report to the prince. His old man approves them before they can get the things."

This sentence blocked everyone's anger to the core, no wonder Qin Meng dared to be so swagger, it turned out that people had a bottom line in their hearts.

Luo Fang was also depressed, and said, "Qin Meng, then we should declare to the prince. If we don't get the same thing, do we need to trade the horse for you?"

It can be seen that Luo Fang also has a fire in his heart, and the virtuous brother is gone, replaced by a name.

"Hey, the general, the blacksmith team, it is the priority to meet the supply of the headquarters. The prince is reasonable, our department has contributed so many weapons to the army, and then we can prepare some for ourselves. The prince will never ask us to supply it first. Right? Then we are too miserable, what is the difference with the stepmother?"

Luo Fang was also choked into speech, regardless of his high authority, but when he encountered the bold and thick-skinned Qin Meng, he really didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

"Everyone. Let’s talk about it first. I’m here today to do some fair-trade business, and absolutely not to fill the pockets. What the generals lack is a powerful weapon, and what I lack is Warhorse, we can completely complement each other. We are all serving the country. In private, we are business-to-business. Even if it is tracked down by the peak, it is at most improper behavior. How can it not be regarded as a violation of military discipline and national laws? Yes, the output of Mo knives is very low. If you don’t order, I’ll just make dozens of them enough for my own use, and then I will build war knives and iron pots. My blacksmith team will need to feed dozens of people. Well, when the time comes, everyone just wants to trade the horses, and there is nothing to trade."

The generals looked at each other, and they all saw the same anger as their own in the eyes of others.

Qin Meng disapproved: "Don’t miss it when you pass by. Two horses are exchanged for a Modao. You can’t buy it at a loss or you can’t be fooled. The quantity is limited and the goods are in short supply. You have to wait until the year of the monkey. Brother Ding, don't you want something?"

Ding Liang's eyes paled with anger: "Don't call me big brother, I don't have your unlucky brother! What's so, your kid is too dark, my brother, you have gotten such a black hand! Give me five Ten! Qin Meng, you can listen well, when the time comes, if you want to cheat Lao Tzu, even if you don't want this life, Lao Tzu will have to smash your blacksmith shop!"

This reversal was unexpected to everyone, but if you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing wrong with Ding Liang's doing this.

Qin Meng smiled and said: "Brother Ding, rest assured, the younger brother will definitely meet the supply. But we can say that we will exchange fifty Moknives, but it is calculated separately. Don't forget, there are two more promised to me. Warhorse, when you come to take the knife, you have to hold one hundred and two warhorses.” (End of this chapter)
