Chapter 63

Hearing this, Yang Xiu shook his head helplessly, and immediately put his hands on the battlements, and shouted loudly to Wei Ke who was standing still below the city: "The people under the city are Uncle Wei?"

Wei Ji frowned when he heard the words, and secretly said: "The voice of the speaker seems familiar."

Wei Xi set up the awning with his hands, fixed his eyes on the top of the city, and after looking at it, he asked hesitantly: "Is the person in the city Hongnong Yang Dezu?"

Yang Xiu nodded, and in order to appease Wei Kui's heart, he deliberately exchanged a code with him, saying: "I'm here, I haven't seen Hongnong Yibie for several months, Bo Yubie is fine?"

The last time the two met was during the New Year last year, when Wei Ji and his family went to Hongnong Yang's Mansion to pay New Year's greetings, that's why Yang Xiu said this.

Although Wei Ji is 20 years older than Yang Xiu, the two of them treat each other as equals, because the family gap between the Wei family of Hedong and the Yang family of Hongnong is too great, so when Wei Ji meets Yang Biao, he often It's all seniors' ceremony.

Seeing that the person at the head of the city was indeed Yang Xiu, Wei Ke was overjoyed, and completely forgot about the bloodstain on the ground, and immediately walked towards the manor with his hands clapped and laughing.

When Wei Ji reached the bottom of the city, the city gate opened slowly, looking at Lei Wanchun who was holding the handle of the knife, Wei Ji couldn't help frowning, and said: "Dare to ask this strong man's name?"

Hearing this, Lei Wanchun shook his head silently, expressing that he had no comment, and immediately made a gesture of invitation to Wei Ji, and said: "My lord has been waiting at the top of the city for a long time, please hurry up to the city, sir."

Hearing this, Wei Qi nodded in understanding, and said: "It turns out that they are the new guards recruited by Dezu. The Hongnong Yang family is really extraordinary."

Wei Ji misunderstood, he took Lei Wanchun as Yang Xiu's follower.

After a long time.

Wei Xie hurriedly waited on the top of the wall, and happily came to Yang Xiu, but what he never expected was that there was a young man standing in front of Yang Xiu, and Yang Xiu who was standing behind the young man, unexpectedly It gives people a feeling like the boy's follower.

Wei Ji silently exchanged glances with Yang Xiu, and it was only at this moment that he finally had some recollection in his heart.

Looking up at Liu Bian's noble face, Wei Ji tentatively asked, "May I ask your honorable name?"

Liu Bian hooked his fingers to Wei Ji, motioning for him to stretch out his right hand.

Wei Ke didn't know, so he still did it.

Liu Bian stretched out his right index finger and wrote his name on Wei Ke's palm.

After finishing writing, Wei Jiao stared blankly at the palm for a long time, then silently clenched the palm with Liu Bian's name written on it.

Wei Ke first used his eyes to push Wei Jian and Liu Zhen back, then straightened his clothes, bowed and saluted, and said, "Your honored guest came to the door, I'm not far away to welcome you, and please forgive me for neglecting you, Your Majesty."

Liu Bian smiled and raised his hand to support him, saying: "Going to the door presumptuously and disturbing Uncle's peace, I should be the one to plead guilty to Uncle."

"Don't dare! Don't dare!"

Wei Ji waved his hands again and again and said: "The humble house is rough and simple, and it is really a blessing for the king to come here."

Liu Bian smiled slightly and said: "My identity is too sensitive, and I don't want to get involved with you. I came here today to make a deal with you. Please don't refuse."

"Please speak, Your Majesty, I wish to listen attentively."

"I have two hundred high-quality horses, and I want to sell them to Bo Kei for some road money. I don't know what Bo Kei wants?"

Hearing this, Wei Ji glanced sideways at the two hundred Xiliang war horses that were tied to the city, and after a little thought, said: "The Wei family is from a scholarly family, and the clansmen are not good at riding horses, so why not leave them to the king, on the way Maybe it can be of some use, and I wish to withdraw 1000 million yuan from the treasury and donate it to the king as a road fund, I wonder what the king wants?"

"No merit and no reward."

Liu Bian shook his head and said, "Why don't we do this, two hundred horses, half of us, I will take a hundred horses and sell you a hundred horses, that's it."

"I?"

Hearing the words, Wei Ji gasped in shock, suppressed the shock in his heart, Wei Ji nodded slowly, and said: "It's very good, very good."

"Try to use gold and silk as bargaining chips, this will save us a lot of trouble." Liu Bian said.

Wei Ji nodded, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, you can save yourself."

"Your Majesty, please wait here for a while, and come as soon as you go." Wei Jiao bowed respectfully to Liu Bian, and then quickly walked down the city.

Yuwen Chengdu and Nan Jiyun silently followed behind Wei Ji, in case he did anything that would be unfavorable to Liu Bian.

Yuwen Chengdu and Nan Jiyun followed Wei Ke to a dry well in the backyard, and Wei Ke ordered people to remove the boulder that was pressing on the well.

Several servants were about to step forward and work together to remove the boulder on the dry well, but Yu Wencheng stopped him with his hand.

"Such a trivial matter, why do you need to leave the hands of others?"

As Yuwen Chengdu said, he put on his horse stance in front of the well, and immediately embraced the boulder with both hands, and with the strength of his waist and abdomen, he lifted the boulder weighing hundreds of catties.

Looking at Yu Wencheng, who was holding the boulder high but still not changing his face, Wei Jiao widened his eyes in surprise, and said: "A strong man bears a lot of strength, and he is no less than the overlord of Western Chu."

Yu Wencheng smiled nonchalantly, and casually threw the huge stone the size of a millstone aside, saying, "It's nothing but a small skill."

Hearing this, Wei Ji was not in a hurry to ask people to go down the well to withdraw money, but stood in front of the well with his hands behind his back, frowning and meditating.

Seeing this, Yu Wencheng was about to step forward to urge him, but was stopped by Nan Jiyun.

Nan Jiyun cast a calm look at Yuwen Chengdu. Seeing this, Yuwen Chengdu nodded silently, not rushing to speak.

Before seeing Yuwen Chengdu displaying his supernatural power with his own eyes, what Wei Kai thought in his heart was to form a good relationship with Liu Bian, but after seeing Yuwen Chengdu displaying his supernatural power, Wei Jiao's mind suddenly became lively.

"King Hongnong has such a strong general by his side, thinking that with his help, he may be able to achieve great things. If he is given a certain amount of financial assistance before he makes a fortune, he may be able to achieve a miraculous effect of a thousand profits. Even if King Hongnong fails to achieve success, then As far as I, Wei Shi, is nothing more than a loss of money."

Wei Yan squinted his eyes slightly, nodded slowly, and subconsciously blurted out: "Yes, this deal can be done."

"Since you have done it, please hurry up, time waits for no one." Yu Wencheng said in a deep voice.

Wei Ji was stunned, and immediately ordered Wei Jian and others to go down into the dry well, and took out all the gold, silk and other things.

Wei Ji silently wiped the sweat from his forehead, and thought with lingering fear: "Because of being excited just now, I almost said what was in my heart."

After a few hours.

Standing on the top of the wall with his hands behind his back, Wei Ke waved goodbye to Liu Bian and his party who were walking away with a smile on his face.

Looking at the more than twenty carriages on the official road in the distance, Wei Jian sighed helplessly, and said depressedly: "My lord, we are really at a loss this time."

"Ignorant boy, what do you know? I have a vague premonition that this will be the most successful business that Wei Shi has ever done." Wei Ke said.

For this transaction, Liu Bian only paid the price of one hundred Xiliang war horses, but got two thousand catties of gold, 1000 million yuan, one hundred training (fine silk) and one hundred plain (white silk) from Wei Ji. , a hundred bolts of silk, and all kinds of ready-made clothes, bedding, and countless supplies of grain and grass.

In addition, Wei Ji personally selected four beautiful maidservants in the mansion to take care of Tang Ji's daily life.

Now let's summarize the approximate value of these things that Wei Ke sent.

Two thousand catties of gold is equal to about 2000 million coins.

1000 million dollars.

One hundred horses are equal to about 25 yuan.

One hundred horses is about 15 coins.

One hundred bolts of silk is about one hundred thousand coins.

Four beautiful maidservants are equivalent to about [-] yuan.

All kinds of ready-made clothes, quilts, food and grass supplies totaled about 25 yuan.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the two parties are not doing business at all, but investing. Liu Bian smiled and accepted the generous gift from Wei Ke, and Wei Ke also got a promise from Liu Bian.

"Hedong Wei is a loyal person. When I get rich, I will never forget the loyalty of Hedong Wei."
