Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Xiao Yuanyuan ran to Li Kuan, who was still checking the condition of his bicycle, and pointed at the gate of Cheng Mansion and said excitedly.

"Well, it seems to be quite good..."

When Li Kuan heard this, he didn't know what Xiao Yuanyuan was planning for a moment, and followed her gaze towards the two doors.

You know what! Usually the old goblin looks silly, but I didn't expect him to be quite knowledgeable!

The front door of his house is not made of ordinary wood, but the best white hardwood.

This white quebracho has no other advantages, but it is hard enough! Even ordinary axes can't do anything to it!

It also requires special techniques and tools to handle it well!

If it is used to make the body of a bicycle, it is definitely the best choice!

"Uh...wait! Sister Yuan! You're not...you're not planning to dismantle the gate of the Cheng Mansion to make a bicycle?"

Li Kuan suddenly reacted and was shocked by Xiao Yuanyuan's idea.

If the gate in front of the old demon's house is demolished, won't Cheng Yaojin fight with Li Qiu to the death?

Although he was not afraid of the fool at all, the big axe in the old goblin's hand was not easy to deal with!
"Yes! Brother-in-law! What's the problem? We can dismantle it and make it into a bicycle. At worst, we can just compensate him with two more gates!"

Xiao Yuanyuan blinked her big eyes, seeming to think that there was nothing wrong with her idea.

“This… seems to be the truth.”

He will pay for it after demolishing it. His other two doors look even more magnificent than this one.

I think Cheng Yaojin would have nothing to say either.

"That's right! Brother-in-law! Let's do it!"

Xiaoyuanyuan's big eyes lit up.

"Your Majesty! Lady! What are you doing?"

Just as the two were staring at the gate of Cheng Mansion in fascination, a servant of Cheng Mansion came over and looked at them strangely.

Your Majesty Li Kuan, why are you looking at the gate of their city with such eyes?
"Um... well... we want to tear down this gate."

Li Kuan turned his head away and said with some guilt.

"Did you tear down the gate of our Cheng Mansion?"

The servant was stunned when he heard this. What is His Majesty doing?
Why do you want to tear down the gate of their Cheng Mansion for no reason?
"Your Majesty...Is this not possible?"

Although he was full of doubts, he still gave advice.

If he really watched Li Kuan tear down the door, with Cheng Yaojin's violent temper, wouldn't he beat him up?
As a servant of the Cheng Mansion, how could you not even be able to guard the gate?
"Brother-in-law! Take it down!"

Xiao Yuanyuan's eyes were bright, as if she didn't hear the servant's words.

"Ah."

Li Kuan did what he said and rolled up his sleeves to get started.

"Your Majesty! You can't do that! Please don't embarrass me! If you tear down the door, my job will be in jeopardy... You know my general's temper."

Seeing that Li Kuan was about to take action, the servant gritted his teeth, went up to hug Li Kuan's thighs, and begged with a sad face.

"Come up quickly! Help me persuade His Majesty!"

The man seemed to feel that he alone could not persuade Li Kuan, so he quickly spoke to the other servants who were watching on the side.

"Ahh!"

Inside the Cheng residence, the old witch suddenly sneezed.

"Hmm? Someone come!"

There was a faint noise coming from outside the door, and the old goblin was a little unhappy.

"Master! What can I do for you?"

A servant heard the sound and hurried in.

"Go and see what's going on outside! Why is it so noisy?"

"Yes!"

A moment later, the servant ran in in a panic.

"Master! Master! Something terrible has happened! His Majesty is outside the door!"

The man was panting and pointing outside the door with an agitated look on his face.

"Hmm? Li Kuan is here? That's good news! Why are you so flustered?"

Cheng Yaojin felt a little strange when he heard this. Wasn't it a good thing that Li Kuan came to visit him?

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty is going to tear down the gate of our Cheng Mansion!"

"What! What does that brat Li Kuan want to do? He actually came to tear down the gate of my Cheng Mansion? He is really a rebellion!"

The old goblin jumped up from his chair and ran out the door angrily.

"You little bastard! Stop it!"

In just a moment, Cheng Yaojin arrived at the gate, saw Li Kuan, and was about to attack his door when a loud roar came out of his mouth.

"Uh, old goblin? You're here?"

Li Kuan felt a little embarrassed when he saw Cheng Yaojin’s angry face, so he stopped what he was doing.

This old devil came at a really bad time! If he had been a little later, he would have succeeded.

"I'm asking you a question! What's the matter? You dare to tear down my front door now? Are you bullying me because there's no one in the Cheng Mansion?"

The old demon was very excited and glared at Li Kuan fiercely.

"Uncle Cheng, we want to make a bicycle! Your door is so nice! It's the best choice to use it to make a bicycle!"

Xiao Yuanyuan seemed to sense the old goblin's anger and moved closer to him.

The sound was like honey, making the people nearby feel extremely comfortable.

"A bicycle? What is that?"

The anger on the old goblin's face faded a little, but he still stared at Li Kuan.

"Uncle Cheng! Look. This is the bicycle my brother-in-law made! It's more fun to ride on it than to ride a horse!"

Xiao Yuanyuan ran to the side of the bicycle, blinked her big eyes, and introduced the bicycle to Cheng Yaojin very seriously.

"Then you can't tear down my gate! This gate is the facade of my house. How can you tear down the facade casually? If the news gets out, how can I, Cheng Yaojin, still live in Chang'an City?"

Cheng Yaojin glanced at the extremely exquisite bicycle and his expression softened a little, but he was still very unhappy with Li Qiu and the other man's behavior of dismantling the door, and looked at Li Kuan with great vigilance.

"Uncle Cheng! You are the best! How about this? Your gate is so old. Let's get you a new one."

"No! The door is open!"

Seeing that Cheng Yaojin had no intention of giving in, Xiao Yuanyuan used her best tricks.

The art of being cute!
The old goblin hesitated when he saw this, but still refused.

A tree needs bark and a person needs face! This gate is his face! If it is demolished, wouldn't it be a slap in his face?
"You old devil, why do you have to be so serious? How about I give you the best door as compensation? Let me take it apart and use it first."

Seeing that the old witch had no intention of giving in, Li Kuan also moved closer with a smile on his face.

"Humph!"

Unexpectedly, what Li Kuan got was a sour response from Cheng Yaojin.

That cold snort clearly explained his attitude.

"How about I buy your gate? Just name a price! Any price is fine!" Xiao Yuanyuan wanted to go for a ride with him so much, so he naturally couldn't let her down.

He gritted his teeth and said to the old goblin.

Since it can't be given for free, and it can't be exchanged, then it's ok for me to buy it with a large sum of money, right?

I don't believe that you, Cheng Yaojin, would remain unmoved by the temptation of huge sums of money!
".This...No! I won't sell it to you no matter how much money you pay!"

Cheng Yaojin was moved when he heard this, but he seemed to have thought of something and refused to agree.

"You really don't want to sell it? No matter how much money you pay, I won't sell it."

"Do not sell!"

"Will you sell it for one thousand taels of gold?"

"Do not sell!"

"Two!"

".Not for sale.!"

Li Kuan noticed the hesitation on Cheng Yaojin's face and started to raise the price, but the old demon was really patient. He didn't even nod until Li Kuan offered 10,000 taels of gold.

The servants who were standing by and watching widened their eyes when they heard Li Kuan's offer.

Ten thousand taels of gold to buy two doors?
I'm afraid that even if I buy ten Cheng Mansions, a house like this would be more than enough!
Everyone looked at their general's expression and it changed.

Why is their general so stupid today?

Two doors for 10,000 taels of gold! What a good deal!

"Master...why don't you agree to it? We can get a new gate. I can send someone to order the best wood right now..."

The old butler behind Cheng Yaojin couldn't bear to watch it anymore and reminded him.

"..What? Is it your turn to be in charge of the Cheng Mansion now?"

The old goblin glared at him upon hearing that.

In fact, Cheng Yaojin was also somewhat tempted, but he pinched Li Kuan, a man who didn't care about material things. In order to exchange for the door of his house, he would come up with some greater benefits.

It’s not that he can keep his composure, but he wants to take the opportunity to blackmail Li Kuan!
"What's the matter? Are you going to demolish it or not? Or you can make some conditions!"

Li Kuan looked Cheng Yaojin up and down with some surprise.

Has he become so tough?

Is he really not afraid of being forced to do it himself?

If he uses force, this old devil won't be able to stop him, and by then he will really be in tears!

"It's not impossible to tear down the front door of my house..."

Upon hearing this, the old goblin immediately spoke.

He looked as if he was afraid that Li Kuan would go back on his word, as if he had been waiting for Li Kuan to say this.

"Uncle Cheng! Please tell me quickly. Brother-in-law will definitely satisfy your request."

Seeing that the old demon was about to give in, Xiao Yuanyuan, who was about to give up, suddenly lit up her eyes and looked at Cheng Yaojin in front of her with a sharp gaze.

"You brought back a lot of good things from Kucha last time..."

The old goblin rubbed his hands, looking eager to try.

He knew Li Kuan and had extorted a lot of good things from the King of Kucha.

Each of those things is a masterpiece!
After getting a small bronze sword from Li Kuan, he had been thinking about when he could get one or two good things from Li Kuan!
"Forehead"

Li Kuan was speechless for a moment. It turned out that this coward had wasted so much time with him just to extort one or two good things from him?
Couldn't this guy have just said it earlier? Why did he have to keep talking here for so long?

"Why? Is it not possible? Then I can't give you this gate! Xiao Yuanyuan, you see, it's not that I don't want to tear it down for you, but your brother-in-law is reluctant to do so. As the saying goes, you can't catch the wolf without sacrificing the child..."

Seeing that Li Kuan seemed to be a little hesitant, the old demon immediately spoke in a sarcastic tone, but his eyes stayed on Li Kuan, paying attention to the changes in his expression.

"Stop, stop! Aren't they just some material possessions? I'll give them to you!"

Anyway, the number of those things was not small, so Li Kuan wouldn't feel bad about giving him one or two.

Besides, if he was really stingy, he wouldn't have given those things to the old witch for free before.

"How about this, you give me eight or ten thousand-year-old ginsengs."

The old goblin was greatly moved, and said while suppressing his excitement.

The servants behind the old goblin felt ashamed when they heard this. What happened to their general today?
He also returned eight or ten thousand-year-old ginsengs? Could it be that he had lost his mind?

If an ordinary person can get one, it is a blessing earned through thousands of years of cultivation!

Treasures like that cannot be measured by money!

He starts talking about ten or eight as soon as he opens his mouth. Isn't this insanity?
"Uncle Cheng! You've gone too far! I didn't expect you to be this kind of person! I will never talk to you again!"

Xiao Yuanyuan on the side looked at Cheng Yaojin angrily. Although she didn't know the value of the thousand-year-old ginseng, the number of ten or eight pieces sounded very unpleasant!

"Um... well... if we can't have ten or eight, then three or five will do."

"At least you have to have one or two."

When the old goblin saw the expressions of the crowd, he realized that something was wrong with him and quickly changed his words.

One or two thousand-year-old ginseng?

Li Kuan suddenly changed his mind. Thousand-year-old ginseng? Not to mention that he didn't have it now, even if he saw the old demon asking for so much, he couldn't just give in to him easily!

Since he is so unkind, there is no need to give him face!

"Old demon, do you know about the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo?"

Li Kuan thought of a solution in an instant and said it lightly.

"Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo? Of course I know this, but what does this have to do with my thousand-year-old ginseng? Just tell me whether you want to exchange it or not!"

The old goblin frowned, confused for a moment. He didn't think this matter had anything to do with what he wanted.

"Do you know about the development of warships?"

Li Kuan did not answer, but continued to ask.

"Don't say these useless things! Hurry up! Do you want to change it?"

The old goblin was a little impatient.

"I asked the Institute of Gewu to develop a warship. I already have an idea for it, but I need a lot of high-quality wood. I think your gate is a good choice. Your gate is requisitioned by my Institute of Gewu!"

A sly smile suddenly appeared on Li Kuan's face.

Do you want to extort something from Li Kuan?
You old witch, get nothing and even give your door to him for free!
"Is this true?"

The smile on Cheng Yaojin's face froze, and he was caught off guard.

"The warship matter is under the sole responsibility of our Institute of Gewu. Are you going to disobey my order?"

Li Kuan glanced at him calmly and spoke slowly, with an expression that looked like he deserved a beating.

He is responsible for the warships, and no one would object if he said he would requisition them.

not to mention,
He didn't think that the old witch would really have the courage to question him personally.

After all, he is the emperor of Dayan!
"you!"

Cheng Yaojin was so angry that he opened his eyes wide and couldn't speak for a long time.
