With the sound of the sound, the horses coming from the other side stopped one after another, posing an undefended appearance, and let the one hundred cavalry at the front of Li Xun approach, and a long and very "handsome" man came out from the team, wearing a suit. In the pale yellow brocade, a claret red horse straddled.
He looked at Li Xun's hundred cavalry enviously, and asked, "Where is my fifth brother?"
"It turns out that it was the sixth time master arrived. The son has just had dinner and is watching the fire and water by the river. Please come here. The sixth time master is here." Li Xun rushed over and looked at the people. Lead the way forward.
"Follow, don't disturb the people." The man on the horse ordered, urging the horse to follow the cavalry.
Li Xun was about to stay a little longer, and waited for a little room in his stomach to eat the other two boxes. There was a pile of charcoal fire next to him, which could be warmed up.
Hearing the movement, stood up and looked there.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also came out, with a hundred crossbowmen gathered around them. They were supposed to help Li Xun’s cavalry to suppress the battle, shoot enemy squadrons and rear groups, or wait for the cavalry to help suppress each other when they turn around, depending on the situation. Not useful anymore.
"You two have finished eating too? My sixth brother, I don't know how to find it, let alone what he is doing." Li Xun saw Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and made an expression that I was also wondering.
In fact, he is not afraid even if he doesn’t know who is coming. He has 600 cavalry. Zhang Xiaobao and Zhang Xiaobao are now surrounded by more than 200 people. More than 100 people are in ambush. Ping Wangjuan’s command level, even if the opponent is 10,000, don’t even think about it. Some of the six hundred cavalry soldiers had fought against Wang Juan in Tubo.
"You know, Li Yu, he ran here in the middle of the night." Zhang Xiaobao looked at the construction site and said that instead of working on the construction site, he picked up various tools to prepare for support.
"It's time to miss me. I don't think I will be short of money. Last time he celebrated his birthday, I gave him 10,000 sticks. He said he used it for business. Now he is also a county magistrate. State soldiers join the army unless they are compensated by the trade."
Li Xun didn't really know what his own brother, who was no longer his own brother in name, came here to do.
Li Yu was already riding a horse and came close. As soon as he saw his brother, he jumped off his horse and almost fell. He happily leaned in front of Li Xun and said, "Fifth brother, I haven't eaten yet. Nothing to eat, huh? Box, just two, let's do it right."
After speaking, he was not polite. He reached out his hand to pick up a box with only a little bit of heat, opened his mouth and ate, chewed hard, stuffed the whole box into his mouth, stretched his neck and swallowed the remaining half of the bowl. After pouring the soup into the stomach, pinching a piece of cucumber, he asked again:
"Fifth brother, where did you find the cook? It's delicious. What's in the box? It has a faint scallion and spiciness. It is different from the onion. It's slightly smelly and fresh. It's better to borrow my brother to use it for a while. "
"It's cold, wait first, and I'll bring it to you in a while. This is the one who did it, Zhang Xiaobao, and the next one is Wang Juan. If you can bring it back, let them make it for you every day."
Li Xun also likes this brother very much. Unfortunately, he is only in private. If he is in the capital or in public, he can only be a cousin. Who will let him be adopted? You can say whatever you want.
Li Yu was still immersed in the delicacy of the box. Hearing his brother's words, he said without even thinking, "Zhang Xiaobao, Wang Juan? You two left with Benhou and asked how much it would cost."
"As soon as I can take out the money and wealth of the official family, Li Houye eats slowly, and there is still in the tent of the Xiaguan. I don't know if Li Houye is dipped in sauce, with sweet noodle sauce, it tastes better."
Zhang Xiaobao heard others say that the food he made was delicious, and he was also happy, so he cooperated with Li Yu.
"Bring it quickly, good craftsmanship, how much is your family's 10% of the money?" Li Yu also pinched the other box, this time he was reluctant to eat it all, bitten, and asked while undercutting.
"Probably, the sale between Shuiyun and Yun is almost 10% of my family's income. The turnover in the first half of this year has not been reported yet. It will be known after June that Li Houye will have to wait for a while."
Zhang Xiaobao really took Wang Juan to get a box for Li Yu. Li Xun’s younger brother arrived, and he hadn’t eaten yet, so he couldn’t make people hungry.
"Sure, go get it first, Brother Fifth, let me tell you the good news. There is a big business in my county. People from a chamber of commerce came to see a piece of land in my place. They said they wanted to take it down and proceed. Development, but... But... Brother Fifth, who were those two just now? Zhang Xiaobao, Wang Juan? Between Shui and Shuiyun? The two of them are Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan? Brother Five, why didn’t you tell me earlier, oops, it’s broken, Little Treasure, Cuckoo, wait for me, I don't need you two to be cooks, I really don't need it."
As Li Yu was talking, he suddenly reacted and complained to his brother. He wanted to catch up with Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, still shouting.
Pulling Li Yu to hold, Li Xun said helplessly: "They will get you something to eat, they will be in a hurry, and they won't be full."
"Fifth brother, the two of them cooked the food themselves? Just now I said I would buy them into the mansion, they..."
"They don't have the same knowledge as you. Xiaobao made dinner today, and then said, how big a deal you have over there." Li Xun stopped and asked Li Yun who was going to talk to him.
"In fact, it's not that old. Compared to Brother Five, you are not big enough. Last time Five gave you ten thousand sticks. I used them to do business. This time I am going to invest. They said... Brother Five , I’d better wait for Zhang Xiaobao to come back and talk about it. I wanted to find you directly. Since he is there, it’s better to listen to it together."
Li Yu was about to talk about the business, but suddenly stopped, waiting for Zhang Xiaobao to come.
Li Xun knew what the younger brother meant when he heard it, and said with a slight dissatisfaction: "Yes, if there is no one else, you will find your fifth brother and me. If there are others, find someone else. You know Xiaobao is great, right?"
"No, it doesn't mean that, then I will tell you fifth brother first." Li Yu quickly denied.
Sure enough, Li Yu started to talk, except that he was no longer buying and selling, but something else.
"Brother Fifth, I admire you. I brought three hundred riders this time. But when facing Fifth Brother your hundred riders, the momentum is gone. The second echelon behind you who is ready to charge has not yet come up. , If this comes up, I won’t be pleased with 3,000 people, Brother Fifth, tell my brothers how to train soldiers, it seems to give people a feeling of fighting on the battlefield.
And the crossbowmen here are also good. I just heard the neat and tidy stringing sound over there. My captain of the guard told me that only by listening to the sound, I know that the bowman is powerful. Anxious and orderly, when it’s a war, I’m most afraid of hearing this sound, because the next moment it will be covered by a neat rain of arrows. Such a rain of arrows will come out in bursts, and once it falls, it will be a piece of land. . "
Listening to being praised, Li Xun was also happy, and slightly nodded. "Those who rushed out were all those who had fought against Tubo outside the pass, and the crossbowmen were the guards of Wang Juan’s house. Just your hunting soldiers. Don't say three thousand, even if thirty thousand come, I will hand over the command to Wang Juan, and you will be in vain."
"That is, who doesn't know the cuckoo, the Tubo people call her the evil spirit, we privately call her a ghost fox, moving like the wind, coming and going without a trace, fifth brother, what are you doing here?"
Li Yu flattered again, staring at the direction where Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were leaving, and asked again about the situation on the construction site.
At this time, the people on the construction site have already returned to work. Many people actually hope that the enemy of other countries will come. Of course, this kind of thinking is inconsistent. If the enemy can come here, how many places have to be beaten by people. When I think of it, let's see how Wang Juan led the soldiers to kill the opponent and discard the armor.
Seeing that the alarm was lifted, it was said that another member of the royal family came. He knew that he couldn't fight, but he found his place one by one, and what to do.
"I participated in the sale of four workshops here. I came to take a look. I haven't seen Xiaobao and the cuckoo for a long time. I wonder, what is the big deal you just mentioned?"
Li Xun didn't think that his younger brother would know the details of the relationship, so he casually dealt with it and asked again.
Li Yu's eyes still looked in the direction where Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan had left. After listening to his brother's question, he responded, and then asked: "Fifth brother, Zhang Xiaobao proposed to build the workshop here? I wonder if Changning County can learn it. Take a look."
"Then you have to get the map and talk about what you have there. Not all modes can be applied to other places. Isn't there a big deal? Let's talk about it specifically."
"A map, yes, I have a few copies in my hand, and I know what happened there, Brother Fifth, can I also participate in the business here? I won't mess around, just wait to collect the money."
"What do you think? Think about it in your own county. Once the Zhang Wang family's business is spread out, you don't need others to participate in the stock. Unless it is not done before, they will ask others. There is a great risk. Anyone who is hesitant. People, all have lost their chance, wait for the next time, next time they will have any business, I will tell you, you take the money out."
Li Xun finally understood at this time that his younger brother didn't want to talk about big business with him alone and interrupted back and forth, so don't ask, who makes his trading skills inferior to Zhang Xiaobao, and his younger brother can't trust him.
Li Yu nodded happily: "Fifth brother, don't worry, I won't ask if I can make money or how to make money. I will take care of the money. Then I will pay as much as I earn. Come back, they come back. , How come it takes so long."
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan appeared outside the tent at this time. Zhang Xiaobao was still holding a dinner plate with something steaming on it.
I put the dinner plate nearby. There were a few boxes inside, a bowl of soup, two small pickles, and a little sweet noodle sauce. He said to Li Yu: "It's just baked, the outside is burnt and the inside is tender. Let's talk about entering the house."
Li Yu smiled embarrassedly, "Xiaobao, I can't afford to hire it, I can't be sold for Shuiyunjian, Xiaobao, there is a big business in my county, I don't know if you want to invest money."
