Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 121 Two Horse Merchants
Cheng Liang scratched his head embarrassedly, but when Liu He heard the name "Zhang Shiping", he felt like he had picked up gold!
"Zhang Shiping, a big horse merchant mentioned in the novel, and another fellow villager Su Shuang, once funded the three Liu Bei brothers to start an army. The famous Green Dragon Crescent Blade, Eight-foot-long Steel Spear, and Male-Female Double-edged Sword were made of the iron they funded. These two can be called the top rich people in the Three Kingdoms. The other one of the two horse merchants mentioned by my third brother should be Su Shuang! It seems that Zhang Shiping should be called Zhang Ding, with the courtesy name Shiping."

Liu He was suddenly very excited, this was like a pillow just as he was sleeping!
He grabbed Cheng Liang and almost shouted, "That's great! Third brother, do you have any way to contact these two?"

Cheng Liang was frightened by his grab, and Liu He also found that he seemed to be a little too excited and out of control, so he quickly regained his composure and sat up straight.

"I was just excited for a moment, just excited for a moment, haha."

Cheng Liang didn't think much about it. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "It's impossible to contact them. In fact, since I can remember, my family has never contacted them. They think we are poor, and we think they are shameful for doing business, so we have never had any contact. But I know where they live."

Liu He immediately slapped his thigh and stood up: "Okay! Second brother, third brother, tomorrow morning, the two of you will take a box of coins as a deposit and go to Zhongshan State to find these two horse dealers. You must buy good horses!"

Guan Yu and Cheng Liang thought that Liu He was just eager to buy horses, so they didn't say much.

"Brother, don't worry!"

Liu He thought about Cheng Liang's character again, and was afraid that he might say something wrong and cause trouble, so he quickly warned him: "My two brothers, when you go to Zhongshan, remember to build a good relationship with them. We will inevitably need their help in the future, so don't act rashly."

In this era, the social status of businessmen is extremely low. Even ordinary people may not look down on a businessman who does big business, not to mention that the status of his brothers is no longer what it used to be. If Cheng Liang says something wrong and offends these businessmen, he is afraid that the other party will get angry and stop doing his small business, which will be troublesome.

"Don't worry, big brother. We will definitely get this done even if it means sacrificing our reputation!"

After the two of them said this, Liu He felt relieved.

After eating and drinking, everyone left. Liu He went to see Zhang Yu, but found that she had already fallen asleep. He did not dare to disturb her and returned to his room.

Lying on the bed, Liu He was filled with emotion.

I was about to be drawn into the whirlpool of the chaotic times at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. I didn't know what would happen in the future. I didn't expect that I was only 19 years old, still a minor according to today's standards, but I had already become a county magistrate. It was really sad.

Liu He was just sighing here when the system's voice suddenly appeared, completely waking him up from his semi-drunk state.

"System prompt: The host has completed the hidden mission - occupy a county before the age of 20. As of now, the host has taken control of Langtiao County from the county town to the countryside, and has been appointed as the county magistrate by the court. The system begins to calculate rewards for the host..."

Liu He sat up suddenly, full of anticipation.

"Haha, I don't know what kind of reward I can get. I feel like I have completed this task pretty well. The time has also been advanced, and the results of the county governance are obvious to all. Hehe, I hope the system boss can give me some strength."

Just as Liu He was thinking about it, the system's voice sounded again: "The system has evaluated the host's mission completion and determined it to be excellent. The rewards are as follows: the host's political attribute is increased by 1 point, one lucky roulette opportunity, and 500 points."

"Great! This reward is quite impressive! Just these 500 points will allow me to do a lot of things! It's worth all the effort I put in."

Liu He cheered and almost jumped up.

Liu He happily "looked" at the rewards he had received, thinking about how to use them.

"Well... let's use the lucky wheel first!"

Liu He selected ten exchangeable items from the warehouse, put them on the big turntable and started spinning.

"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a copy of the 'Divine Horse Breeding Atlas', which has been stored in the system warehouse." This reward finally made Liu He feel a little better.

Although this atlas was not expensive among the ten items he selected, it came at a very timely moment. It was just when he was preparing to buy a horse, so it was like a timely rain, so Liu He could completely accept it.

"Now that I have the points, I'll quickly redeem the "Armor King Forging Atlas" and the "Beast King Taming Manual". I've been looking forward to these two books for a long time."

With a thought, 400 points were spent, and immediately only 178 points were left.

The next day, Liu He handed over the "Divine Horse Breeding Atlas" and the "Beast King Taming Manual" to Zhao Chang, and sent the "King Armor Forging Atlas" to the Five Wolf Valley.

Zhao Chang was extremely excited when he saw the "Beast King Taming Manual". After only flipping through a few pages, his eyes lit up and he was reluctant to put it down, as if someone was going to snatch it from him.

However, what puzzled him was that he was only interested in training wild beasts. He knew nothing about taming horses, and he had no interest in the book on horse breeding.

But Liu He didn't care about that and insisted that he study according to the picture album.

Liu He also had his own considerations. Black King would be his mount in the future, but Guan Yu and his own cavalry were all on horseback. Black King, like a tiger, was not only a deterrent to the enemy's horses, but also to his own.

Therefore, Liu He planned to raise the war horses and the Black King next to each other in the future, so that the war horses would gradually get used to the Black King's power, and naturally they would not cause chaos when they went to the battlefield.

In addition, Liu He had no place to find someone who was good at raising horses in a short period of time, so this important task could only be handed over to Zhao Chang for the time being, since they were all about training and raising animals after all.

All the important matters have been settled, and Liu He finally has some free time.

After a long period of cloudy days with rain, snow and rain, the weather finally cleared up that day, and Liu He took Zhang Yu out for a walk.

Liu He supported Zhang Yu and came to the bamboo forest in the backyard and sat on a stone bench.

"Husband..." Zhang Yu called softly. Liu He looked at her and gently rubbed her hands.

"Yu'er, what's wrong?"

Zhang Yu smiled slightly: "Nothing. I was just wondering whether the baby is a boy or a girl."

Liu He gently stroked the back of Zhang Yu's hand and said softly, "Haha, what does it matter if it's a boy or a girl? As long as it's a child born to me by my wife, they are all the blood of my Liu family, and I like them all."

Zhang Yu pursed her lips and smiled: "When did my husband become so slick?"

Liu He scratched Zhang Yu's nose and scolded her with a smile, "How could I be so slick? Madam, don't you know what kind of person your husband is?"

"But your branch has only been passed down from your grandfather. You can't let it end in my hands."

Zhang Yu stroked her big belly, obviously still hoping that it was a boy.
