Seeing that Cao Zhang didn't force him to look at the four-sided gold outfit, Fu Jian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This four-edged gold wedge can not be shown to Cao Zhang, although the four-edged gold wedge is a Qimen weapon, the world has not seen it, but its workmanship is very but very fine, not Hu people can create.

If Cao Zhang saw it, he was afraid that he would be suspicious.

It's better not to see it.

The meal had been served, and Cao Zhang sat back on the throne and beckoned everyone to drink.

When the wine was drunk, Luo Xian saw that Cao Zhang was drinking happily, and did not pay attention to the below, quietly walked to Vice General Zhang's side, and said in a low voice: "We have already used Hu Shang's rhetoric first, and Zong Zheng will make them arrive three days later, and then use Hu Shang's rhetoric to go to Liaodong, I am afraid that it will not be beautiful."

If Cao Zhang is not here and can still be fooled, the key is that Cao Zhang is here, I don't feel easy to deal with this person, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to get through the trick. ”

Vice General Zhang nodded and said: "Yes, this Cao Zhang is not a teenager now, and he is also shrewd, if Zongzheng makes them come and uses Hu Shang's rhetoric, two groups of people go to Liaodong for three days in a row, I am afraid that Cao Zhang will suspect me, what do you say?" ”

Luo Xian said in a low voice: "You can tell Cao Zhang, saying that our tribe is short of food, we are going to sell more war horses, and send people back to inform Zongzheng to make them on the grounds of going back to the tribe to inform the patriarch, and when the time comes, Cao Zhang will not doubt it." ”

"Got it!"

Vice General Zhang nodded and said to Cao Zhang: "Master Hou, I have something I want to ask you. ”

Cao Zhang heard the words and said: "If there is anything to say, as long as I can do it, I will not refuse." ”

Deputy General Zhang said: "That's the case, it snowed this winter, my tribe didn't have much grain in stock, many livestock were frozen to death, it was a pity that those war horses were frozen to death, I thought about it carefully, the price given by Hou Ye is so fair, instead of being frozen to death, it is better to sell them to Hou Ye, in exchange for grain and grass, I don't know if Hou Ye can agree." ”

Cao Zhang was overjoyed when he heard this, where is there something to trouble him? It's a great event.

"This matter is simple, my Dawei is short of horses, you are short of grain, we can trade for a long time, the price is according to what I said, 20,000 yuan for an inferior horse, 50,000 yuan for an inferior horse, 100,000 yuan for a medium horse, and 180,000 yuan for a superior horse.

Whatever you need, you can exchange it for the same price, and I will prepare it for you. ”

Vice General Zhang said with a smile: "Then thank you Master Hou, I will send someone back to the tribe later, and ask the patriarch to let people bring some horses over." ”

"So much better, the more the merrier!" Cao Zhang said with a happy face.

After dinner, Vice General Zhang and his entourage returned to the post house to rest, and Luo Xian selected a clever person from among the soldiers to return to find Zongpre, tell them the situation here, and let them prepare in advance.

The next day, Vice General Zhang set off to bid farewell to Cao Zhang.

Cao Zhang personally went out of the city to bid farewell to Deputy General Zhang.

Cao Zhang took out something similar to a fold from his bosom and handed it to Deputy General Zhang: "This is the way I personally opened for you, and with this guide, it can be unimpeded in my Great Wei territory." You go to Liaodong first, and when you come back, we are catching up on the old days. ”

Vice General Zhang took the guide and said, "Thank you, Master Hou, it is estimated that in two or three days, our clansmen will come over with a lot of horses, and I will ask Lord Hou to take care of me when the time comes." ”

Cao Zhang nodded: "Of course, I will treat them well, you can go to Liaodong with confidence." ”

Vice General Zhang saluted Cao Zhang with a Xianbei salute, and then turned over and rode towards Liaodong with his men and horses.

On the other side, the people sent by Vice General Zhang returned the same way, and it took a day to find Zong Prefect Fu Wei.

At this moment, the two had already led the team out of Meiji, only dozens of miles away from Liucheng, and they were also stationed in a city on the border of Shuozhou, waiting for news.

"I've seen the general, Master Zong!"

Zong Yu pulled the soldier over and asked, "Where is Liucheng and what is the situation now?" Can you get the way to pass the test? ”

The soldier told Zong Pre in detail about the situation he had encountered, and told Zong Pre about Luo Xian's proposal.

Zong Yu listened to the soldier's words and muttered: "I didn't expect Cao Zhang to go to Liucheng, if he pretended to be another group of Hu people to go to Liaodong, I am afraid that it will arouse Cao Zhang's suspicions."

But if we call it a tribe, it is difficult to explain that we are taking so many people to Liaodong, and we must leave some people in Liucheng to transport away the grain and grass exchanged from Cao Zhang's hands. ”

Fu Wei waved his hand and said: "Since this is the case, it is good to leave some people, more than 100 of us, it is not easy to act when we arrive in Liaodong." If it can be done, three or five people will be enough, and if Gongsun Yuan is really not good for us, it will be blind to bring thousands of people. ”

"That's right!" Zong Yu nodded, gathered everyone, and explained to them: "Since Cao Zhang is in Liucheng, we are divided into two groups to go to Liaodong for fear that Cao Zhang will be suspicious, so we can only tell him that it is a tribe.

When the time comes, we will sell all the horses to Cao Zhang, and you will be responsible for transporting the exchanged grain and grass back to Dahan. General Fu and I will take three or five people to Liaodong.

When the time comes, you must be careful, don't be noticed by Cao Zhang, and when you talk to each other, you must use Xianbei words. ”

After resting in the border city for one night, Zong Yu and his entourage rushed to Liucheng.

"You are from a tribe of Sulie (Xianbei name used by Vice General Zhang), right? Don't you want you to come so quickly, these horses are sold to us? ”

Knowing that it was Deputy General Zhang's tribe who came and brought a hundred and ten war horses, Cao Zhang personally went out of the city to greet him.

Zong Pre replied to Cao Zhang in Chinese with a Xianbei accent: "I have seen Master Hou, Su Lie sent someone back to tell the patriarch, saying that you want to buy war horses, the price is fair, it just so happens that our tribe has many horses but is short of grain and grass, so the patriarch asked us to bring the horses over quickly." ”

Cao Zhang said with a smile: "These are good horses, doing business with you is a pleasure, I have already made people prepare grain, grass and salt, you can rest for one night, and you can bring things back tomorrow." ”

Zong Yu smiled and said: "I won't go back for the time being, our patriarch heard that the horses were bought by the Hou Ye, and he was worried that his friends would be unhappy, so let me personally go and explain to his friends that I will let others transport the grain and salt back." ”

"Your patriarch is indeed a man of love and righteousness, but I really want to meet him and be friends with him. In that case, you should go to Liaodong, and I will open you a road guide, go quickly, and maybe you can catch up with your companions. ”

"Then thank you Master Hou."

Subsequently, Cao Zhang opened a road guide for Zong Pre, and Zong Pre took the road guide and took Fu Wei and three or five soldiers to Liaodong.

As for those brigades, Zong Yu couldn't take them with them in Liaodong, so they all brought them over, and it was difficult for Cao Zhang to explain them.
