Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 22 The Third Summoning

"Come back to me, prodigal!"

Zhang Yuandong was afraid that his wife would annoy Shen Lian, so he hurriedly dragged him back, slapped him on the face, and shouted, "Go back to your room!"

"My lord, you—ouch!"

The woman ran away covering her face. Zhang Yuandong's face turned blue and pale, and finally he forced out an ugly smile and apologized to Shen Lian.

"My wife has no virtue, Shen Qianhu laughed."

"It's okay."

Shen Lian looked indifferent, as if nothing had happened.

He didn't even look at Zhang Yuandong, he just stared at the boxes carried by the servants to the yard.

The servants carried a total of twenty mouthfuls, and Shen Lian opened them one by one to check.

Most of the boxes contain one ingot of silver ingots, and one box can contain hundreds of ingots, that is, thousands of taels.

There are also some silks, satins and jade items. The total value of the twenty boxes is about 3 taels.

3 taels is a sky-high price for ordinary people, but it is also a big piece of meat for Zhang Yuandong.

Although he is the head of the five great families, his branch is after all in a remote place like Beifeng City, which is incomparable to some big cities in the Central Plains.

In some big cities in the Central Plains, any small official has the opportunity to make tens of thousands of taels of silver every year.And he, after so many years, only earned less than 20 taels in Beifeng City.

Now willing to spend [-] is already the limit.

But Shen Lian didn't seem satisfied yet.

"Patriarch Zhang, is it a little less?"

Zhang Yuandong was already very distressed, but now hearing Shen Lian's words, he was even more angry, and his tone of voice became a little rushed.

"Shen Qianhu, these twenty boxes are worth more than 3 taels! Zhang does have some spare money, but please Shen Qianhu know that the thousands of people in Zhang's house need money to eat, drink and drink!"

Shen Lian said: "The Zhang family deserves to be a big family, and the patriarch needs thousands of people to serve him. You must know that our lord, the prince of Zhenbei, doesn't even have a servant girl in the house."

Zhang Yuandong felt a chill in his heart when he heard the words.

He knew that Shen Lian was telling the truth, that Su Yuan drove out all the servants of the palace, and the whole city knew about it.

However, those servants received five taels of Anjia silver each, so they didn't worry about being hungry or thirsty.After all, in Beifeng City, two taels of silver are enough to build a big tile-roofed house, and with three taels left over, the food and drink expenses of a family are enough to last for a year or two.

But what is curious is that after driving everyone out, Su Yuan didn't recruit new people.

In other words, there are almost no servants and maids in the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.This made the patriarchs very puzzled, not knowing what was going on in Su Yuan's mind.

Now that Shen Lian brought up the matter, Zhang Yuandong couldn't help but think: "Could it be that Su Yuan deliberately didn't recruit people, so as to make things difficult for me in this matter?"

He really thought too much, Su Yuan was just afraid that someone pretending to be a servant and sneaking into the mansion would be bad for him.

But Zhang Yuandong was thinking about it right now, and he only thought so. Facing Shen Lian's gaze, he gritted his teeth and told his servants: "Move again, bring out ten boxes!"

Only then did Shen Lian nod in satisfaction: "Patriarch Zhang understands righteousness deeply, Shen admires it."

Zhang Yuandong: "..."

He is really looking forward to the day when Master Wang comes, when the time comes, he has to deal with this Shen Lian to death!

……

Zhenbei Wangfu.

Su Yuan held the Heavenly Soldiers Talisman and stayed alone in the inner courtyard.

"Before I knew it, another week had passed."

This week, Su Yuan had something to do almost every day, and every day was very fulfilling, and he was so busy that he went to sleep when he opened his eyes, and he never thought about summoning.

Now that lunch was over, it was only in the afternoon that he remembered that he could summon again.

"What will it be this time..."

Su Yuan was not in a hurry to call, but instead considered his own needs.

As Chu Changning said before, he needs internal affairs talents very much now, and if he can summon them, it will be like a tiger with wings added.

Because of the absolute loyalty of the summoned soldiers, Su Yuan can completely let go of power.In that way, with the help of internal affairs talents, Beifeng City will definitely change rapidly.

"If there are no internal affairs talents, it would be better to have more soldiers and horses."

At present, there is no news from the capital, which makes Su Yuan very surprised.

The record of him killing the eldest princess of Jiuyang was supposed to have been sent to the capital last week. After a week, the emperor's old son's "crime order" should have been issued.

But according to the news sent back by Jin Yiwei who was lurking in the mainland and the capital, there was no movement.

Could it be that the old emperor doesn't know about this?Or, the old guy is going to play tricks, and wants to secretly dispatch troops to deal with me?
Su Yuan didn't know.

But he had to prepare early.

Therefore, it would be great if we could summon more soldiers for battlefield combat this time.

In his plan, in the near future, he will solve the worries of the northern Xinjiang camp, and it is inevitable to use troops for this.

One hundred thousand Xiliang iron cavalry is enough, but who would think there are too many soldiers?

Han Xin ordered more troops, the more the better.Su Yuan also didn't dislike the large number of soldiers. If he could summon a million soldiers, he might as well stop developing and just press the whole army towards the capital and it would be over.

"Forget it, no matter what is summoned, it is better than nothing!"

Su Yuan stopped thinking about it and chose to summon.

The soldier talisman flashed with light, and the result of the summoning was displayed.

In an instant, Su Yuan's expression became very strange.

[Successful Summoning: Get Four Personal Guards]

【Personal Guard · Plum Sword, Lan Sword, Bamboo Sword, Chrysanthemum Sword】

Main Battle Type: Guard

Equipment: Rapier

Quantity: 4
Remarks: The quadruplet guards look similar, with fierce swordsmanship and beautiful faces.

……

Plum orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum...?
this is not……

Su Yuan looked at the details on the light curtain, and it took him a while to recover.

He chose to summon, and the golden light shone, and four slender and beautiful sword-wielding women appeared in front of him.

When the four of them saw Su Yuan, they all knelt on one knee: "Plum Sword (Lan Jian) ​​(Bamboo Sword) (Chrysanthemum Sword), pay homage to the master!"

"...you all get up."

"Yes."

Su Yuan looked at them, and they also looked at Su Yuan.

The five stared at each other for a while, but Su Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

"Master, is there anything bothering you?" Lan Jian asked.

"No……"

Su Yuan was just a little surprised by the result of this summoning. He originally wanted to summon an internal affairs talent, or some soldiers, but he didn't expect to summon the four sisters, Mei Lan Zhu Ju.

They are indeed "soldiers" in a certain sense... Like the 36 island owners of the 72 caves, they are all subordinates driven and controlled by Tianshan Child Elder.

But this is not a bad thing.

Su Yuan looked at the four of them, thinking that their martial arts should be much higher than Jin Yiwei's, right?

Intelligence doesn't seem to be bad either.

As always, Su Yuan intends to conduct a force test on the four of them.

"You come with me."

"Yes, Master."

The four responded in unison, and followed Su Yuan to the martial arts arena.

Su Yuan called Chu Changning again.

He didn't call Xiliang soldiers to test this time, it was a waste of time, the force of the four swords was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary soldiers.

"My lord, you are..."

After Chu Changning arrived, he looked at the four girls beside Su Yuan with strange expressions.

Two days ago, Su Yuan said he would not find a maid, but now...

Su Yuan could see what was going on in Chu Changning's mind, and coughed: "Changning, these four women are my new guards. I want you to compete with them."

Chu Changning shook his head repeatedly when he heard the words: "My lord, my subordinates don't want to bully women!"

"Hmph!" Before Su Yuan said anything, Mei Jian snorted coldly and drew out his sword.

She looked at Chu Changning coldly, and said, "Hugh can speak such wild words! Master, I can defeat this person alone without the cooperation of our four sisters!"
