Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 15 The First Transaction

"My lord, you can start the investigation from the person who found and reported the rat shit." Zhou Cang also didn't expect such a thing to happen to Mi's family, and he happened to have seen this case before, but he couldn't remember whether it was Cao Chong or Sun Haopo at that time. In this case, the ancients were really smart. "If you say something inappropriate, it must be the work of the inner ghost."

"It seems that someone came up with such vicious tricks because of the lack of wealth in Shangpi. It's really abominable. Thanks to Brother Zhou's help, you and I have another drink."

After drinking another cup, Mi Fang asked: "I don't know where Brother Zhou is from, where are you going?"

"I'm from Xiluoping, Xiahui County, and I traveled all over the world following my father's orders." Zhou Cang replied, "During the journey, outside Xuzhou, there were hungry people everywhere, and the people suffered terribly. Most people in Xuzhou respected their families and took care of them. " Mi Fang's heart was filled with joy as she spoke.

"However, wherever I go, the Taiping Road is popular everywhere, and there are unruly people gathering people to deceive people, especially in the Hebei area." Zhou Cang continued.

"The mob is nothing to worry about." Mi Fang was very disdainful. "It's nothing more than deceiving ignorant fools."

"Young Master's words are very true." Zhou Cang poured a glass of wine for Mi Fang. "It's just that there are so many ignorant people in the world. Hearing rumors, spreading rumors, spreading rumors to ten, ten to hundreds, the increasing number of people will inevitably lead to troubles, and even take risks."

"At that time, there will be refugees and thieves everywhere, ranging from blocking merchants to plundering rich households..." Zhou Cang saw that Mi Fang was deep in thought, and changed the subject, "But with my son's ability, I will definitely be able to keep everyone safe."

"Brother Zhou, thanks for the prize. I have learned how to bow and horse since I was a child, and I am also very good at it." Mi Fang's compliment to Zhou Cang was very useful. "My brother loves Tao Zhu's study, so I have no choice but to bow my horse."

"I once heard a rumor that I don't know if it's true or not. Once when my brother Mi Zhu went out in a car, he met a beautiful woman walking on the road, so he stopped and asked her to get in the car and drove for a while. At night, he dreamed of a man who called himself Huo Jun and said that your family There will be a big fire, Lingxiong hurried home and moved out all the family property. Sure enough, the kitchen caught fire and could not be put out. Cang said gossipingly.

"Hehe, I'm afraid this is just the hearsay that your lord said, let's pass it on." Mi Fang said with a smile, and then changed the subject. "Brother Zhou has traveled around, but have you ever heard that the northern peoples wear horses and shoot horses, gallop like flying horses, and can bend bows and set arrows without missing a target?"

"Northern people are not suitable for farming, so they have to herd and hunt. Even children can ride horses and shoot arrows. There is a saying: Hu'er can ride a horse at the age of five. But he can't pull a hard bow or a long bow on horseback. For the sake of speed, I think his bow is soft and short. They can't reach far, and it's hard to penetrate the armor. If they want to reach far, they need to dismount and shoot; there are also a few good archers who can use hard bows and strong bows, but they can't shoot at gallop, and they have to stay on horseback. But even this is not me. Seniors can reach it."

"Brother Zhou has a good opinion." It seems that Mi Fang knows a lot about this, and she is somewhat disinterested.

"I have something that can be broken." Zhou Cang said mysteriously. "Young master, would you like to take a trip outside the city?"

"Oh." Mi Fang suddenly became interested and stood up. "Very good."

Zhou Cang sent Chen Zhongxian back, and Mi Fang took the bow and arrow and rode out of the city.

Going to a place where no one was around, Zhou Cang took out something, which was a stirrup made by a blacksmith.Tie the stirrup to Mi Fang's horse and said, "This thing is called a stirrup. It is easy to get on the horse, and it is like walking on flat ground. You will know it once you try it, but please master the strength when getting on and off the horse to avoid sprains."

Mi Fang stepped on the stirrup and got on the horse, kicked her legs and galloped forward. After getting used to it, she picked up the bow and set up the arrow and shot as hard as she could. She took nearly a hundred steps straight and shot several arrows in a row.Mi Fang laughed loudly, rode back and got off the horse, touching the stirrup and couldn't put it down.

Zhou Cang let out a long breath, fortunately he was prepared. "Young master, if you use the stirrup skillfully, you can also control the horse. There is another disadvantage of this thing, that is, if you accidentally fall off the horse when dismounting or fighting, you must get out of the stirrup in time, otherwise you will not be able to get free if you hang on it, or you will be dragged by the horse and cannot get out."

"Hmm..." Mi Fang didn't pay attention to what Zhou Cang said later. "Brother Zhou, this thing is really a magic weapon. I don't know if I can give it up. It must be reconsidered."

"Young master, why did you say that? You and I fell in love with each other as soon as we saw each other, so I gave you a mere stirrup." Zhou Cang dropped the bait without a trace.

"That's all right, I will help Brother Zhou with all his strength if there is something to do in Xuzhou in the future." A thousand pieces of gold can't be exchanged for this promise, if you hook up with Mi Fang, you can hit up Mi's family in the next step, this deal is still a good deal.

"Brother Zhou is really a fantastic idea, how did you come up with this thing?" Mi Fang asked.

"Where did I think of this? When my father traveled to Saibei, he saw that everyone could ride a horse, but he needed help even when he was on a horse, let alone galloping a horse. Inspired by the idea, this product was made after repeated experiments after returning to the hometown. It is ridiculous to say that my father thought it was an experiment with a donkey, and the donkey was not obedient at all, and made a lot of jokes."

"However, my lord," Zhou Cang said solemnly, "this is still a secret weapon, please store it properly and don't show it to others. Once it is used in the army, it will be a big killer. Wait until you can command the army alone Only then can it be used, otherwise there will be endless troubles.”

"Ah, that's true." Mi Fang patted her leg, took off the stirrup and hid it in the package.The two led the horse and walked back slowly.Zhou Cang suddenly thought of something: "I don't know if the young master knows the real Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping?"

Mi Fang thought for a while and shook her head, "I've never heard of it. I don't know who these two are. My brother may know who he is."

"These two are really wealthy businessmen who trade horses. I heard that their horses are all imported from Saibei, and they are all tall and majestic. If you want a good horse, you might as well find these two people."

"Okay, I remember these two people, I will visit them when I have a chance."

"Young Master Mi, I have one more word," Zhou Cang said to Mi Fang. "Now the world is in troubled times. When the world is in chaos, it is the time when heroes will gather together. If you respect the rich family, you will inevitably be watched by others."

"I wonder what brother Zhou's opinion is?"

"There are many servants in Zhizun's family. You can choose the strong ones to practice, and only talk to the outside world to protect them, so as to cover people's eyes and ears, and choose the capable ones to spread around to listen to the news, so as to be prepared." Zhou Cang was afraid that Mi Fang would be suspicious, so he didn't dare to say more.

"Good, I will discuss this matter with my brother after I go back. If Brother Zhou goes to Xuzhou, I will definitely introduce him to my brother." Mi Fang nodded. "I still have to go to Xuzhou to deal with family affairs, so I will give this bow and arrow to Brother Zhou, please don't refuse." Mi Fang handed the bow and arrow to Zhou Cang, thought about it and felt sorry, then took off a jade pendant and gave it to Zhou Cang.

Knowing that the Mi family is a big family, richer than the Chen family, with the stirrup, Mi Fang probably won't be able to use this bow and arrow, but the jade pendant looks valuable, so Zhou Cang accepted it with a smile. By the way, he said a few words of admiration for Mi Zhu Love, I wish I could see it.

The first transaction was completed in this way, Zhou Cang did not exchange a single penny, except for a pair of bows and arrows and a jade pendant, Zhou Cang only got a promise from Mi Fang, and he didn't know whether he would win or lose.
