Chapter 592: Giving, Gaining

Chapter 592: She, De

"That's all?" Out of the stable, sitting down in the pavilion where Gongsun Helan was, Wang Zhihong frowned lightly, his face showed disbelief, raised his eyes to look at Li Jihe in front of him, and said: "There are only five hundred healthy horses, but there are thousands of old and weak horses, just with these things, how can 'Yantian Ranch' supply enough horses for my Tang Dynasty army to ride?" ”

"Lord Qincha understands horses, and he also knows the rarity of this Eli horse, and it is a big limit to be able to get more than 1,000 horses in half a year," sat on Wang Zhihong's bottom knee, and poured the tea bowl for Wang Zhihong and Gongsun Helan lightly, Li Jihe then began to complain: "These alone, have used up most of the villain's family wealth, if you want to bring back enough Ili horses, I don't know how much money you need, the villain is now, for this matter is a headache, raising money everywhere, but there are still a lot of missing..."

"Elima is rare, and the government also knows," his lips pursed lightly on the edge of the bowl, Wang Zhihong interrupted Li Jihe's words in a loud voice, and turned a deaf ear to his words, wanting to reach out to the court to ask for money, and said sloppily: "But since the contract has been signed, the owner of the Ji field still has to find a way to fulfill the original promise as soon as possible, otherwise, this matter Li Fu understands, but the laws of my Datang, and the government army of my Datang who are waiting to use horses, are ruthless." ”

Soft and hard, the threat of changing direction, Wang Zhihong squinted his small eyes, looked at Li Jihe, and said: "Also, such a large place as 'Yantian Ranch', with plenty of water and grass, can be described as a good land, is there only these more than a thousand horses?" ”

Lord Wang laughed," he despised Wang Zhihong very much in his heart, Li Ji and Xiao accompanied him with a smile and said, "If there were only more than 1,000 horses in the pasture, wouldn't the villain have starved to death on the side of the road long ago?" ”

Turning his head and glancing at Wang An standing beside Gongsun Helan, Li Jihe raised his hand and pointed lightly, and said: "This is the master of my 'Yantian Ranch', all the daily affairs in the ranch are generally taken care of by him, and the situation of the ranch, Lord Wang can just ask him." ”

"Villain Wang An, meet Lord Qincha!" was named by the owner of their house, Wang Anwei patted his sleeves, bowed down and stood out from the side, and respectfully bent over to salute Wang Zhihong, looking as usual, not frightened by Wang Zhihong's name as a master. After all, when I was in Sanyuan Liufu, I had even seen nobles like the crown prince, princess, princess, and princess of the Equestrian Kingdom, and now when I look at this Lord Qincha, I don't have that feeling of sincerity and fear.

"Well," nodded slightly, Wang Zhihong's eyes couldn't help but fall on Wang An's not very tall little body, I don't want a little horse master to have such a calm and unfazed cultivation, calm and moderate, not in a hurry, and even a few points better than their owner, which is rare.

"In addition to the more than 1,000 Eli horses in this ranch, what other horse breeds are there, and how many are they?" When asked about the topic, Wang Zhihong put down the tea bowl lightly, Zhengse raised his eyes to look at Wang An, and asked slowly.

"Returning to Lord Qincha," Wang An bowed and replied, "In addition to the Eli horses mentioned by the adults, there are also yellow fat, green ears and some other hybrid horses in the pasture, a total of more than 10,000, all of which are now placed in the stables in the village. ”

"Oh? It's okay to go and take a look, it just so happens that the mansion also wants to go around, take a look, "Wang Zhihong didn't postpone it, and with Wang An's words, he got up directly and responded, and Wang An took him to the village to see.

"Uncle Wang, inside the stable, the smell is stinking, especially now, it is the period of breeding horses, the commotion is unbearable, so don't go," Gongsun Helan put on the posture of the little master of his Gongsun Mansion, raised his head, and persuaded Wang Zhihong softly.

"If the virtuous nephew doesn't want to go, just wait here as an uncle," Wang Zhihong smiled on his face, spoke softly, patted Wang An's little shoulder with his backhand, and said: "The master of the Ji farm doesn't need to follow him anymore, this little brother is the master of the ranch, and he knows the situation of the ranch himself, and it is enough to have this little brother to lead the way for the mansion." ”

"Huh?" Li Jihe's face was stunned, and he hurriedly bowed down and said to Wang Zhihong: "The Lord Qin sent the ranch to inspect, and the villain was added as the owner of the farm but was not on the adult's side, so it was inevitable that there would be a number of rudenesses, or the villain would take the adult..."

"The master of the discipline field is too worried," waving his hand to interrupt Li Jihe's words, Wang Zhihong said: "This mansion is just walking around at will, whoever will take it is the same, there is no politeness, the master of the discipline field and Helan Xian's nephew will stay for a while, and the mansion will go back and forth." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Gongsun Helan and Li Jihe to react, Wang Zhihong pulled Wang An together, walked out of the pavilion, and walked towards several other larger stables in the herd village under the scorching sun overhead.

"This old man Wang likes to play a little clever," After Wang Zhihong and the others left, Gongsun Helan sat back in his seat, drank the herbal tea in his tea bowl, and said: "Does he think that Wang An's kid is a good person to deal with?" ”

Loyal and honest on the outside, but more shrewd than anyone else in his heart, if Wang Zhihong wants to get something out of his mouth, it is more difficult than if he wants to get the true information from Li Jihe's mouth.

"Young Master Helan is right," Li Jihe sat sideways, took a sip of tea, and said: "In the end, it is a subordinate who came out of Mr. Liu's mansion, not everyone can be blinded, Lord Wang This time, I am afraid that he is smart but he is mistaken by being smart." ”

"Young Master Ben still doesn't understand," pinched the dessert on the table and put it in his mouth, Gongsun Helan chewed it and said to Li Jihe in a loud voice: "There are so many Elima in the ranch, that is a good thing at the zenith, let Wang Zhihong know, the ranch will definitely be valued by the court in the future, why do you have to hide it, like a thief?" ”

"Young Master Helan is right," Putting down the tea bowl lightly, Li Jihe glanced up at Gongsun Helan and whispered: "But there is one thing, I don't know if Young Master Helan has ever thought about it, if the court knows that there are nearly 10,000 Yili Jian horses in this pasture, can they still let the villain take care of it here with peace of mind?" Mr. Liu's 'Yantian Ranch', can he still have a peaceful life? ”

"Ten thousand Eli horses, and most of them are pregnant mares, I'm afraid that the emperor knows about it, and he will not let it go easily," Li Jihe continued: "Forcibly expropriated, forcibly expropriated, or arbitrarily placed on a crime and directly confiscated, these are all common tricks used by politicians and soldiers, and they are not uncommon, and Young Master Helan is no stranger to them." If they used these things in this 'Yantian Ranch', there would be Young Master Helan and General Kunshang standing on the side, and I am afraid that they would not be able to cover it. ”

"Well," Gongsun Helan nodded suddenly, didn't say anything more, looked at the occasional pony showing in the courtyard, and said in a loud voice: "What are you going to do with those thousands of horses?" ”

"In addition to the two horses that Young Master Helan took away yesterday, there is still one left in the stable in the stockade now," Li Jihe said softly: "Wang An will take Lord Wang to take a look at it in a while, if nothing else, this horse will be brought back to Chang'an by Lord Wang to offer." As for the other four horses, the villain has made proper arrangements, and as soon as the king leaves, someone will pick them up. ”

"Send a horse with him?" Gongsun Helan turned his head and glanced at Li Jihe, and said: "You are generous, but it can be regarded as a bit of courage, once this thousand-mile horse is sent, I think that in the future, there will be less trouble in this pasture." ”

"If you have to give, you can get it," Li Jihe continued: "This is Mr. Liu's words to the villain when he came." ”

Although Maxima is expensive, compared to the entire 'Yantian Ranch', it seems a little insignificant, which one should be given up, which is more important, it is not difficult to tell, so when he said this, Li Jihe's face did not have too much pain.

"After such a long time, do you know where Brother Liu is now? Is there any more message from him? Hearing Li Jihe mention this, Gongsun Helan once again asked Li Jihe about the safety of Brother Liu's family, and he has always been concerned about it.

"The villain has said this problem many times, and Young Master Helan should not be embarrassed for the villain," Seeing that Gongsun Helan's tea bowl was at the bottom, Li Jihe took the pot and poured it lightly for him at the right time, and said: "At the beginning, the villain and Mr. Liu met in Kuizhou Fengjie, and when they met, Mr. Liu covered his face with a black cloth, and did not tell him his current residence and identity. ”

It is said that Li Jihe doesn't know now, even if he really has the exact news, he doesn't dare to talk to others casually, after all, Liu Yiyi's current situation is not safe.

"Mr. Liu is not a layman," lightly put the teapot on the table, Li Jihe said to Gongsun Helan: "Some problems, it must be difficult to sleep, Young Master Helan don't have to worry." You and Mr. Liu, two brothers, will meet one day. ”

"Well," nodded slightly, retracting what he had just thought, Gongsun Helan stood up, looked at the sky outside, the sun was in the sky, it was noon, and then he said: "Okay, don't mention it, it's not too late to talk about things in the future, it's not too early now, let's go back to the living room and wait first, if you are hungry for a while, they will turn back." ”

"Yes, Young Master Helan!" Li Jihe also got up, waved his hand to a guy beside him, and gave him a few commands, and then followed Gongsun Helan into the mansion in the village.
