The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 251 Materials
Xie Xi and Yu Jinglei looked at each other, Xie Xi put away the smile on his face, shook his head and said, "No! I heard that there is a war going on there, and the brothers are here for business, not for death. !"

"It's business."

Su Bingchang took the word "business" very seriously, and persuaded him earnestly: "You will know when you go, everything in the world is a business."

Seeing that Xie Xi was dubious, he smiled and said: "Little brother, you and your brothers don't worry, they fight their battles, and we do our business."

Qi Zifa looked eager to try, and said, "Fourth brother, since this Mr. Su said so, let's go and see it."

Xie Xi was still shaking his head, Yu Jinglei patted Xie Xi's shoulder heavily, and said, "Fourth Young Master, it's no big deal to be around us in Qin Jing, this Mr. Su wants us, so why don't we do this with him?" Business!"

The rest of the people also expressed their opinions one after another. Xie Xi said to Su Bingchang with a reluctant expression: "Okay, I see that you are quite sincere, so you might as well listen to you, and you can tell us, What kind of business do you want us to follow?"

Su Bingchang's trip to Liyang this time was to do a medicinal deal with the rebels.

The rebels lived in the mountains all year round, not only lacking food and clothing, but also lacking medical care and medicine. After each battle, more people died of illness than battle.

Even if more and more people defected, if the casualties in each battle were astonishing, it would be impossible to grow stronger anyway.

Therefore, the rebels have a great demand for medicinal materials, especially wound medicine, and they buy them from surrounding areas regardless of the cost.

It took more than a month, and Wanyou Company earned a lot of silver taels from the rebels by dumping medicinal materials, not to mention food, ironware and other supplies.

As soon as the rebels and the government army started fighting, everyone in the Wanyou Company was busy running around, and all the guards were sent out, so they asked outsiders for help.

This is also when Xie Xi and his group found this place, they saw that the store was empty and there were not many people there.

After listening to Su Bingchang's words, Xie Xi was still a little hesitant, and asked again: "Shopkeeper Su, are you all enemies? If you are caught by the government, wouldn't it be a serious crime to raid your home and destroy your family?"

"Little brother, there is no such thing as ransacking your home!"

Su Bingchang said very firmly: "You don't have to worry, when we arrive in Liyang together, you will know what's going on!"

Only then did Xie Xi agree, and Su Bingchang was very happy, and directly let the six of them live in the firm.

Liyang is the gateway of Qinjing, and it is more than 100 miles away from Qinjing to the west.

Sure enough, as Su Bingchang said, most of the people encountered along the way were refugees who occupied the mountains as kings, and the six of them were easily dismissed.

When they arrived at Liyang City, it was calm and peaceful, and there was no confrontation between the two armies as imagined.The city gate is still wide open, and people are constantly coming and going.

"Didn't you say they were fighting? Didn't you say that the rebels are coming so fiercely? Why are there no rebels?"

Qi Zifa muttered something in a low voice, his face was obviously a little unhappy, and the mustache beside him asked: "Could it be that the imperial court's army has arrived, and the rebels have been scared away?"

Su Bingchang twirled the goatee on his chin, cast a sidelong glance at Xie Xi, and said with a smile, "Brothers, I'm right, there are no rebels here, only business."

Yu Shilei squeezed out a sincere and honest smile, and gave a thumbs up: "Mr. Su's ingenuity, I admire him so much, where should we go next?"

"Let's not go in Liyang City for now. After finishing our work, let's go to Liyang City to have fun for two days!"

A group of people continued to head west along the official road, and after traveling for more than ten miles, they could already see the faint mountains not far away.

Su Bingchang pointed to a guard post not far away, and said, "The rebels are just ahead."

Then he said in a low voice: "After entering, never mention the word 'rebel'."

Several people obediently agreed, and Su Bingchang showed his token to the sentry post. After letting him go, he did not greet the guard and said, "How is General Tan? How is Chief Zhao?"

Since the six of Xie Xi entered the camp of the rebels, they have been secretly looking at them.

There is no doubt about the layout of the camp and the officers and soldiers, and even the accent, many of them have the accent of the capital or Huainan.

If it wasn't for the conspicuous "Zhao" character on the banner of the Chinese army and the gray uniforms of the soldiers, Xie Xi would have thought that this was a unit of the official army camping here.

After the supplies were sent to the supplies department, the officer in charge of supplies was speaking authentic Hezhong dialect and chatting with the soldiers below.

When he met Su Bingchang and his group, he didn't shy away from it at all, and still talked and laughed at the top of his throat.

Su Bingchang stepped forward and handed a bulging cloth bag to the material officer, and said respectfully, "I came in a bit of a hurry this time. It's not a respect, so I'll just buy wine for you brothers."

The material officer took the cloth bag, threw it casually a few times, and said with a smirk: "Old Su, it makes you lose money every time, I'm sorry."

That's what he said, but he still handed the cloth bag to a soldier around him, and said to the people around him: "Damn, think about what life you have lived in the past. Speaking of which, you are an officer of the imperial court. Do you want to eat?" , If you want to drink or not, you have to go out to find a job by yourself. Now I follow Zhao Touling and General Tan, I don’t have to worry about eating and drinking, and I have people who are filial every day, so the bastard is willing to be an officer!"

While the soldiers were chatting aside, Su Bingchang explained a few things to the group of Wanyou Trading Company, and then he went straight to the Chinese military tent.

Xie Xijian unloaded the medicinal materials and grains he had brought, moved to the side of the supply officer, and chatted with them with a smile.

Those people didn't have any intention of being on guard, and without saying a few words, Xie Xi got out their information.

The material officer was originally from Hezhong, and was originally in the military town of Jiannan. Later, when the frontier army changed defenses, he was transferred to Guanzhong.

However, since then, no one has mentioned the court's custom of changing defenses every three years.He guarded the border town in Guanzhong for nine years, until his mother passed away, but he still hadn't received the news of a change of defense.

He has been the Baizong under Tan Yuesong for three years, and he has been born and died several times.

After Tan Yuesong took refuge in Zhao Quangui, he became the material officer comfortably, without rushing into battle, and with countless rewards.

"I've figured it out now. Anyway, I'm a bachelor. I'll be satisfied if I can eat and drink for the rest of my life."

Several other people also laughed, it seems that the idea is similar.

Xie Xi continued his words and said: "General, what you said is only half right. It is good to not worry about eating and drinking, but you have never thought that eating and drinking is not enough, and you have to have women, so you can live happily." !"
