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

Chapter 48 Chapter 48
The owner of the cloth shop laughed and said, "Mr. Chai, thank you for taking care of the shop.

The small shop has small profits and has to charge you a part of the order for turnover. However, the price of this cloth has been placed close to the cost price in our shop, which can be said to be the lowest in our Taiyuan City. "

Chai Shao laughed and said: "Then I would like to thank the boss, our relationship is a symbiotic relationship, one hurts the other, and one prospers.

Boss, let's make an agreement, you can't delay us after the Chinese New Year. "

"Please rest assured, Mr. Chai, our store will never miss anything, so you can rest assured."

The three of them came out of the cloth shop happily, and Chai Shao said with a smile: "My dear brothers, since you have come to Taiyuan Mansion, I have to treat you to a meal anyway.

What to eat?Squeak though. "

Tieniu looked at Duan Wuji, Duan Wuji thought for a while and said, "I think we'll each have two bowls of noodles, and more than a dozen fire-roasted pork rolls."

Chai Shao laughed out loud.

"Brother, is that what you want? The things you want are all from the beach in that small restaurant, and they can't be put on the table at all."

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "If you can't be on the stage, then you won't be on the stage. What is a good thing? If you want me to say that it is only good if you like to eat. Let's not engage in those vain things.

Brother Tieniu, are you right? "

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother Wuji, you are so right."

Chai Shao laughed and said, "Since you have said so, then brother should do as you said."

The three of them came to a small restaurant, and the three of them walked in. The waiter of the restaurant smiled and said, "Three guests, what do you want to eat?"

Chai Shao laughed and said, "Give us six big bowls of noodles, and fifteen more roasted pork rolls!"

The three chatted while eating, and Chai Shao asked Duan Wuji while eating the fire, "Wuji, do you have any plans until the Chinese New Year?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "I plan to go to Henan Shaolin Temple tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. It is a thousand-year-old temple and a sacred place for martial arts. I will visit my master and see if I can learn some skills there.

If you can learn better, if you can't learn, you should look at my old teacher who taught me.

This coming and going will have to delay at least a month, and the rest of the time will be practicing martial arts at home.

It is also good to lay the foundation for next year's horse sales. "

Chai Shao laughed and said, "Brother Wuji, do you think far enough!

good!Promising, my brother really admires you. "

Tieniu laughed and said, "Brother, aren't you lonely when you go out alone? Do you want to take brother and me out to relax?"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother, if you want to hang out with me, brother, of course I will be very happy."

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Okay, then let's talk about it, when do you think we're going to leave?"

"Of course, the sooner the better, why don't we say hurry up, come quickly, or let's leave tomorrow?"

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this. "Brother, you can leave whenever you want, brother can accompany you anytime.

Duan Wuji smiled and said to Tieniu: "Brother, you can make an agreement with your family that this time we go out to spend money and not make money."

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"Brother, I know this. I also have a dozen taels of silver with me, which is enough for us to spend on the road."

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Brother, how can you spend money on this, I have about forty taels of silver on me, it is enough for the two of us to spend on the road.

Besides, which of us brothers is with whom?Isn't spending your money the same as spending my money?All right, all right, forget about spending money. "

After eating, Chai Shao paid for the meal, and the three of them walked towards Chai's house while chatting and laughing.

Chai Shao said as he walked, "Brother, the three of us didn't even spend half a tael for this meal. You two have saved money for my brother and me."

Duan Wuji laughed and said, "Brother Chai, is this meal good? I think it's pretty good."

After hearing this, Chai Shao smiled wryly and said, "Both brothers, it's fine if you agree, brother, I have nothing to say."

When he came to the gate of the Chai Mansion, Chai Shao said with a smile: "You two brothers, please come in with me and have some tea."

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu shook their heads after hearing this.

"Brother Chai, there's no need for today. Let's talk about it some other time. It's not early today, so let's go back."

Chai Shao listened and said with a smile: "Well, since the two virtuous brothers are leaving, then I won't keep you.

My dear brothers, take care of yourself along the way. "

Chai Shao looked at the guards and said with a smile, "Hurry up and get the horses of my two brothers out. Don't delay their journey."

The two guards immediately ran in after hearing this, and within a short time, the two horses were led out.

Chai Shao stared at the two horses and said, "My dear brothers, how did I find out that your two horses are better than the ones you sold me?"

Duan Wuji stole a glance at Tieniu and said with a smile: "I don't know, Brother Chai, although these two horses are also handsome horses, but the only shortcoming is lack of stamina, we both feed it black beans every day for so many days, look at them Can your physical fitness be improved?"

Chai Shao listened and said with a smile: "You two virtuous brothers, my brother is joking with you, but don't take it to heart!"

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Chai, we can hear it, how can we take it to heart."

After finishing speaking, the two got on their horses, and cupped their hands at Chai Shao.

"Brother Chai, we're going back, you should go back to your residence and rest."

After finishing speaking, the two of them lightly hit the horses, and the two steeds immediately let out a long cry and flew away.

Chai Shao watched the two horses walk away before turning back to the mansion.

The two horses galloped all the way, and ran straight to Duanjiaji. When they arrived at Duanjiaji, Duan Wuji reined the horses and said to Tieniu: "Brother, I will wait for you at home tomorrow, and you have to say whether you want to go or not tomorrow." ah!"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother Wuji, why should I not go? Just wait for me at home."

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Okay, we'll see you tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji hit his horse and ran straight towards the house.After returning home, Duan Wuji fed the war horse first, and then went straight to the house happily.

Walking into the main room, I saw my father was sitting at the table drinking tea, and my mother was sitting at the table chatting with my father one after another.

As soon as the two saw their youngest son walking in full of energy, they hurriedly asked, "Wuji, have you negotiated a deal with Chai Shao's horse dealer?"

Duan Wuji smiled and said: "It's settled, next year our family will pay 3000 taels of silver, Brother Chai will give 5000 taels of silver, the third grandfather's family will give 1000 taels of silver, and Tie Niu's family will give 1000 taels of silver. This is how we initially agreed."

Liu cauliflower was taken aback.

"Damn, why does our family pay so much money? Don't waste all the money! It's not easy for our family to get money!"

After hearing this, Duan Yanqing put down his teacup.

"Master, how can you put pressure on the child before the business is done?

Besides, no matter what you say, our family has already set aside more than 100 mu of land, and built such a beautiful house. Tell me, which one is not set up by Wuji?

Even if we lose money, let’s treat it as if we didn’t earn the money.

Wuji, Dad fully supports you. "

Liu Caihua smiled wryly after hearing this and did not speak.

Duan Wuji comforted his mother and said: "Mother, don't worry, I will try my best.

Can't make a mistake.

Father and mother, I plan to go to Shaolin Temple tomorrow, first to see my teacher Zhizhi monk, and second to see if I can learn another trick and a half in Shaolin Temple. "

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Okay. Boy, you have ambition, father, I will support you.

Hey, Wuji, how much money do you bring with you when you go out this time?Dad will take it for you now. "

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "You can take ten taels of silver for me."

"Ah? Do you want this? Is this enough money? Do you want to get more?"

Duan Wuji shook his head.

"Father, you don't need to take too much, ten taels of silver is enough."

After hearing this, Duan Yanqing immediately took out an ingot of silver from the back room and put it on the table.

"Boy, take it and spend it on the road."

Duan Wuji looked at the ingot of silver and said with a smile: "Father, can you exchange this ingot of silver for loose silver. That way it will be more convenient to spend."

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Boy, you're still thoughtful, it's true, I bought it just now, so I forgot about it. I'll change it for you."

After finishing speaking, Duan Yanqing took the ingot of silver back, and after a short time, Duan Yanqing came back with a bag of loose silver.

"Wuji, here are some loose pieces of silver, which happen to be ten taels, you can take it and use it on the road."

Duan Wuji put away the bag of silver, and said to Liu Caihua with a smile: "Mother, please prepare two coins for me."

Liucaihua laughed and said, "Damn, what's the use of asking for so many of those things? You're not going to collect money."

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "I didn't use this thing at the time, what if I used it, then I have to catch it? I'd better bring one more, what if I need it?"

After hearing this, Liu Caihua ran out immediately, and brought over two newly made Qian Dalian in a short time.

Duan Wuji took the money and took it away.

Liu Caihua turned around and said to Duan Yanqing: "Both of you, father and son, keep chatting, and I'll go cook."

After speaking, Liu Caihua turned around and went out.

After a short time, Liu Caihua brought the food up.

The whole family happily ate dinner, Duan Wuji stood up, and said to Duan Yanqing and Liu Caihua: "Father, mother, please rest, I'm going back to my yard to practice martial arts."

After finishing speaking, Duan Wuji walked out of this room.

Duan Wuji went back to the yard of his bullpen, first practiced boxing kung fu for a while, and then started to practice big stick kung fu.

After practicing the big stick, Duan Wuji practiced the sword technique a few more times until he finished practicing the sword.

Duan Wuji went back to the house to practice the new method of inner strength, and it was not until dawn that Duan Wuji withdrew his inner strength and fell into a deep sleep.
