The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 160 Chapter 150 - Final preparations before the horse sale
Duan Wuji looked at his brothers and said: "Don't leave tonight, just stay here for one night, let's go to Chai Mansion to have a good meal tomorrow."

Chai Shao laughed when he heard this.

"Brother, do you want to eat my brother? What's the problem? I'll ask the chef to make some delicious food tomorrow, so I can treat you well."

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Eating and drinking are not important, we are going there tomorrow to discuss business. This business is done, why don't we have food and drink?

Brother Chai, have you found all the people who are going to do business this time? "

Chai Shao laughed when he heard this.

"Brother, I have found all these personnel. All of them are heroes who can stand up to ten. Don't worry, these personnel are absolutely reliable."

At this time, Duan Changsheng came out from the back room. Duan Wuji looked at his brother and said, "Brother, in a few days, Brother Chai will bring the armor-making personnel to come. Then you can arrange for them to come to my place." Stay in the West Wing Room, and then you have to treat them nicely, and at the same time, you have to help me take care of our snake skin, but don't waste the leftovers. It's really not easy to get such a big snake skin. I don’t want to waste a single cent.”

Duan Changsheng laughed and said, "Brother, don't worry! If you leave this matter to me, nothing will go wrong."

Chai Shao laughed and said, "Brother, I haven't asked you yet. Did you buy this snake skin? How much money did you spend?"

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Brother Chai, how can you buy such a big snake skin?

This is the snake skin that I obtained at the risk of my life. It was almost eaten by this animal at that time, and it almost turned into snake dung. "

"Huh? So you killed this snake? Can you kill such a huge snake? It's amazing!"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "When the snake was chasing my brother, the snake's head was raised more than two feet high, not to mention how scary it is.

It almost scared me to death!Thinking about it now makes me afraid.If it were me, it would be hard to say whether I could escape from this Shekou?

No wonder my brother valued this snakeskin so much! "

Chai Shao laughed and said, "Brother, I didn't expect your skill to develop so fast! Now you have such great ability.

Now brother, I am completely convinced.

Brother, how fast was the snake crawling at that time? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "At that time, I felt that it should be faster than your horse. This animal has chased me for nearly twenty miles. It is me. If it were someone else, I would have caught up with it long ago. gone."

Duan Changsheng listened and hugged Duan Wuji.

"Brother! Why have you never heard you talk about this with your family?"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Then there's no need to ask? Aren't you afraid that speaking out will make you worry?"

At this moment, that Duan Yanqing came in from the outside, Duan Yanqing looked at the crowd and said: "You guys don't leave today, I will let the kitchen make you some good food later."

After hearing this, Tieniu hurriedly said: "Uncle, where did you go just now? Why has it been a long time, and I haven't seen your old man yet!"

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Just now I went for a walk in the village and took a look at my childhood playmate.

What a joy to see them! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Father, none of them said they want to be a long-term worker in our family, right?"

Duan Yanqing smiled slightly.

"Why didn't they say it? There are seven or eight people who plan to work as long-term workers for our family. I didn't discuss this matter with my family, so I didn't directly agree to this matter.

Longevity!Wuji, what do you think about this matter? "

Duan Changsheng looked at Duan Wuji.

"Brother, what do you think about this?"

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Well, it's okay to have another seven or eight long-term workers. Wouldn't it be easier for our family to work like this? Brother, what do you think?
Hey, brother, in another month or so, the weather will be warmer, and our family should build a house. If there are seven or eight more long-term workers, wouldn't our project be more secure! "

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Wuji, do you know why our family didn't build a house last year? It's because the blue bricks used to build the house were not purchased. At the end of last year, I ordered 30 bricks from a brick kiln. Waiting for the blue bricks When everything is burned out, our house will start to be built.

I bought [-] acres of land on the west side of our house. I will build this house very grandly, and the villagers will look at our house with admiration. "

At this moment, Liu Caihua and Wang Jinhua came in with food.

"Stop talking, it's time for dinner, you can talk about it after dinner."

After the food was served, Duan Wuji brought out two jars of wine from the house, and after Duan Wuji filled the wine for everyone, Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Come on, our first glass of wine today will count as our selling wine this time." Horse's Zhuangxing Bar, may our horse sale go well this time, and may the God of Wealth open the door, and let us have a lot of money.

Come on, let's have a drink. "

Several people stood up, picked up the wine glasses and drank them all. Duan Wuji filled them up again. Duan Wuji looked at everyone and said, "I've finished speaking. You can drink this glass of wine freely. After you finish drinking, you want to drink your own wine." But, our family has wine now, so don't be too polite!"

After everyone drank the glass of wine, no one poured it, and then everyone began to eat.After the meal, everyone drank a few more bowls of tea, and then Duan Wuji led everyone back to the West Wing.

Duan Wuji looked at his brothers and said: "Now you go home and get ready. We will bring the silver there tomorrow morning. Maybe we go to Taiyuan Mansion to bring the goods and then leave, maybe we won't go home again.

You have to bring enough clothes of your own, that place is much colder than ours.Don't freeze all the time.

In addition, each of you has to check your own weapons, so don't make any trouble then!

You bring a total of 1 taels of silver, which is not a small amount. It is best to harness the car tomorrow and send it there in a horse-drawn carriage. You must prepare for these things in advance. "

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother, you are so right. What can I do if I don't prepare for these tasks in advance? You guys rest first, I'd better go home and count the money."

After finishing speaking, Tieniu turned around and went out.

Duan Changqing and his three brothers looked at each other and said: "Brother Wuji, let's go home and get ready. If we say that we won't go home this time, there are indeed many things that need to be prepared.

Brother Wuji, Brother Chai, then we are going home too, you two rest, after finishing speaking, the three brothers turned around and left. "

Duan Wuji looked at Chai Shao and said: "Brother Chai, this room will be yours from now on, you can lie down and experience it first, and I will go out and prepare."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji walked out from the west wing.

Duan Wuji came to the main room and said to Duan Yanqing: "Father, we will leave tomorrow, and we don't know when we will come back. I will leave everything at home to you and my brother."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Wuji, as the saying goes, talk about family at home and talk outside. When you go out, you don't have to worry about things at home. Your brother and I will take care of these things.

Wuji, daddy won't say anything else, you have to pay attention to safety along the way! "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Father, I know, don't worry, you old man. Hey, dad, hurry up and ask my brother to give me the silver in the car tomorrow morning. Dad, you can count out 7000 taels of silver for me later, I want to use these Money for what it should be.”

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "No problem, Wuji, don't worry, don't worry about these things, Changsheng, don't read books, and help dad to get some money, it's good morning."

Duan Changsheng agreed and walked out.Then, the two men got busy with their work.

Duan Wuji looked at his mother again.

"Mother! Get my clothes ready, and we'll be leaving tomorrow morning."

Liu Caihua laughed and said, "Your mother has already prepared your clothes for you, and you can take them away at any time."

Duan Wuji smiled slightly.

"Well, well, it seems that my mother still cares about me!"

Liucaihua smiled and said, "Do you need to say that? You say I don't care about you, who cares about you?"

Duan Wuji saw that there was nothing to do now, and immediately walked out of the main room.

Back in the West Wing, I saw that Chai Shao had already fallen asleep on the kang.Duan Wuji couldn't bear to disturb him, so Duan Xinji withdrew from the west wing again.

Duan Wuji went to the middle of the courtyard, and started to practice martial arts in silence. Duan Wuji practiced for a long time, until the Tieniu and the others came back again, Duan Wuji ended the practice.

The brothers walked into the house in the west wing, only to see that Chai Shao was still asleep.

Duan Wuji looked at his brothers and asked, "Is everything ready?"

Several people nodded when they heard this.

"Well, no problem, everything is ready, just wait for us to leave tomorrow."

"Alright then, since there is nothing else to do now, let's sit on the kang and practice internal strength for a while."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji took the lead in sitting cross-legged on the kang, and Tieniu and others also sat cross-legged on the kang one after another when they saw the red sun.

Duan Wuji just wanted to go over and push Chai Shao to wake him up, but Chai Shao sat up from the kang with a grunt.

Chai Shao rubbed his eyes and said, "Brother, your little room is really nice. Just now I fell asleep when I lay down, and I slept so soundly! I even had a good dream at the end, it's amazing!"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Chai, did you dream of marrying a bride? Look at you beautiful.

OK, OK.

I think we should go over to have dinner, don't let my mother and the others come and call us again. "

A few people stood up, walked towards the main room immediately, entered the main room and took a look, ho!I saw that the meal had just been served, and it wasn't at 01:30 that the meal was richer than lunch.

There was a big table with all kinds of dishes. When Duan Yanqing saw Duan Wuji and the others coming, he said with a smile: "Everyone, sit down quickly. Let's have a good meal tonight. You will set off tomorrow morning. Think about it later." It will be difficult to eat the food in this house, come, come, sit down."
