Chapter 181: The Loyal Beishan Fort
In the main hall.
Zhang Shiping's expression was very strange. He held the wild mountain geese and looked again, and turned around to look at Wu Nian from time to time.
"I won't read it wrong. This is the ingredient you need. It's just that your luck is really against the will. If you save an old man in front of the city gate, you will get this treasure that is hard to come by."
Zhang Shiping put down the ginseng and said in jealousy.
This kind of thing may not be found in the imperial palace. A noble person is sick a lot. If you eat a piece of it, he will eat a piece of it. No matter how big a hundred-year-old wild ginseng is, he will not be able to withstand it will be eaten up.
"This is not called luck, this is called cause and effect. Without me, I can't stand the old man bullying the old man, how could the old man give me this thing?" Wu Nian shook his head, but had a different opinion. Then, he showed regret on his face and said, "I should have seen it at that time, otherwise I would give the old man more silver. I only gave the old man ten taels of silver. None of the profiteers were traitors."
At that time, I didn't ask the old man's name or where he lives. Otherwise, he could have sent someone to send money, but it's a pity.
"No. Ten taels of silver are less, but for the old man, it's almost the same." Zhang Shiping shook his head, then picked up the hundred-year-old wild ginseng from the coffee table and put it in front of him to observe, and said, "Looking at the appearance of this ginseng, the old man has got it for a while. Maybe he has entered and exited Dongyuan City more than a dozen times. But he didn't take action. Why? Because if this ginseng fell into the hands of a profiteer, he might have lost his life."
"Even if you meet a good person, give him a few hundred taels of silver. He has to go to see the King of Hell on the way."
"For the old man, he can't keep the value of this ginseng and the value of ginseng. When he met you in front of the city gate, you gave him ten taels of silver. He gritted his teeth and gave you ginseng."
"It's right to say it's cause and effect. But if you want to say it's ten taels of silver, it's very suitable for the old man."
Wu Nian didn't expect this just now. After listening to Zhang Shiping's explanation, he felt thoughtful. Then he glanced at Zhang Shiping and said, "You ginseng merchants are really dark."
"It's quite dark." Zhang Shiping nodded calmly.
He has never done such a murder and robbery on weekdays, but he often does it as much as possible to suppress the price of surveillance customers, as a businessman.
Profit pursuit is instinct.
"Sir. I'll make a few ginseng beards, which may help my life in the future. Don't you mind?" Zhang Shiping suddenly showed a drooling look and looked at Wu Nian with his eyes.
This is a century-old ginseng, and ginseng can save lives.
"We are also sharing weal and sad, so why are you polite? If you want it, you can leave half for you." Wu Nian said generously.
"That won't work. This half is priceless. I'll just get a little ginseng." Wu Nian was generous, but Zhang Shiping didn't take advantage of it. He shook his head and said.
After saying that, Zhang Shiping put five ginseng beards on the Centennial Ginseng. Then, without seeking Wu Nian's advantage, he made a delicate and valuable box and put the ginseng back to Wu Nian.
"Save it well and don't waste good things." Zhang Shiping looked solemn.
"Yes." Wu Nian glanced at Zhang Shiping. Don't I know this shallow truth? What do you need to teach me?
After a while, Wu Nian carefully went back with the ginseng box.
Time passed in the blink of an eye. Early this morning, Wu Nian was preparing to lead his team back to Beishan Fort.
Because there are a lot of carts in the baggage, there are some military households who are good at making weapons that Wu Nian spent money to get.
The territory of Liaodong is not calm now. There are many bandits and horse thieves. Wei Changqing sent Wei Yun to lead a thousand elite soldiers to escort Wu Nian to the south.
Wei Changqing, Wei Ru, Zhang Shiping and others came to see him off in the south of the city.
"Xiao Wu. Take care of yourself. If things are wrong, just leave. Stay with the green mountains and don't be afraid of burning firewood. A man like you will die even if he dies. Don't throw your life away easily."
Wei Changqing stretched out his broad palm, patted Wu Nian on the left shoulder, and said earnestly.
Wu Nian understood what he meant.
The old general planned to die in Liaodong and fight to the end with the Mongolian Yuan people.
And this time, it may be the last time the two of them spoke.
Wei Changqing's words are a valuation of him, a young junior.
Wu Nian didn't say anything else, just nodded with emphasis.
"The green mountains remain unchanged, and the green water flows forever. Everyone. Let's say goodbye." Wu Nian took a deep breath, looked up at Wei Changqing, Wei Ru, and Zhang Shiping, and said in a deep voice with his fists.
"Take care of yourself."
"treasure."
Wei Changqing and the other two clasped their fists together. Then, Wu Nian turned over and picked up his horse, picked up his horse spear, and went south with everyone, gradually moving away.
The three of them watched Wu Nian's team disappear from the horizon before returning to the city together.
Zhang Shiping didn't plan to stay in Haitian City for a long time, and he would leave in a few days.
Although he respects the old general very much, it is precisely because of the old general's persistence that Haitian City is too dangerous. He cannot set up his home in Haitian City.
Wei Changqing took his daughter back to the commander's office.
"Daughter. War is a man's business. But if you want to join the army, you can't do anything to be a father. But there is one thing you have to remember. If I die in the city, you must find a way to escape."
"Then he found out about Wu Nian's whereabouts. His father is very optimistic about Wu Nian. Even if all the Han people in Liaodong surrender, he might choose to avoid the edge for the time being, but he will definitely not surrender, but accumulate strength and make a comeback."
"Follow him. There is no need to worry about not having the Mongols to kill."
As soon as Wei Changqing stepped into the gate, he turned around and said earnestly to Wei Ru.
This daughter is really a good daughter. It’s a pity that he is very lucky and may not be able to see her for long.
He was full of pessimism about the offensive this year by the Mongols.
Although the Wei Ru was thick and big, she was actually thin. When she heard this, she felt sore in her nose, but she said happily: "Dad. Don't say these despicable words. What are the people of the Mongol Yuan? With my daughter, this horse spear is there. They will die a hundred and die a hundred, and ten thousand die a hundred."
"Hahaha." Wei Changqing was amused by her, and reached out to pinch his daughter's nose, then walked with great strides.
Good guy.
Why is it that I am not as strong and generous as my daughter?
I think that Wei Changqing, who has been traversing Liaodong for many years, has killed countless people in the Mongol Yuan. I can't be depressed.
Just like what Wu Nian said.
The battle remains unstoppable.
As long as you can fight, there is still hope of victory.
Beishan Fort.
The autumn sun shines on the earth, giving enough nutrients to crops and allowing them to grow vigorously.
This year, the crop planting of Beishan Fort is particularly strange. The military households planted traditional crops such as wheat and rice, while the land of Wu Nian was planted with cotton.
In the fields, countless military households and slaves are busy.
