"Your Majesty wants to have a bet and fight. I can accompany you, but you must first make Han Lio pay out the nine thousand gold he owes me! It's not too late to have a bet and fight again!"
Zhu Hansan's heart almost rose to his throat. After all, Liu Xu held the title of a prince. Now that the world is not in chaos, although the prince's title has no real power, he is very popular wherever he goes. If it were not for the huge interests involved
, Zhu Hansan really planned to give up and give this boy a face. However, with nine thousand gold in front of him, how could he just give up? That is almost enough money to buy the position of the Third Lord. No one would do it.
Giving up so easily.
"Master Han, what do you think?" Liu Xu turned to look at Han Liang and asked.
"My lord, I was confused for a moment, so I said nonsense. I can't count, I can't count!" Han Lao's heart skipped a beat and he cried quickly.
"How about this, how about we make another bet with Mr. Zhu?" Liu Xu wondered for a while and said with a smile.
"My lord, it's okay to say it!"
Yan Liang's name was well known to Zhu Hansan. He didn't believe that Guan Hai could beat that barbarian, and was afraid that Liu Xu would bring up the gambling issue again. But in this large public, Zhu Hansan could only accept the attack bravely.
There is no other way.
"How about this. The Han family will take out another three thousand gold and merge it into the nine thousand gold that was just bid. The total is twelve thousand gold. This is the price of our bet. If I win, Master Zhu only needs to take out this Drunken Immortal."
The brewing recipe is enough; if Mr. Zhu wins, then all the twelve thousand gold will be yours, Mr. Zhu. As for the auctioned wine, the Han family doesn’t have to do it, how about it?"
Liu Xu smiled.
"What?" After hearing this, Han Lao was so frightened that he hurriedly leaned towards Liu Xu's ear and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, how can I come up with so much money? Please take back your life, Your Majesty.
.”
Even a scribe next to Liu Xu was so frightened that he became nervous and turned pale. After Han Liao, he advised: "What my father said is absolutely true. Your Majesty, please stop making fun of our Han family?"
"Do you think I'm joking?" Liu Xu laughed, intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Ma Yuan, Li Hu, and Wang Lun who were standing next to Zhu Hansan, and said pointedly: "
Among the five major aristocratic families in Jingxian County, Zhu Hansan's arrival has turned into four families. Now the other three families are on Zhu Hansan's side and are working together to deal with your Han family. If the king had not intervened, would your Han family have been able to escape tonight?
"
"No!" Han Qing sighed and replied truthfully.
"Since you can't, then why not if I help you out?" Liu Xu said with a smile.
"But... my Han family really can't afford this money." Han Lio originally wanted to say that all the money came from his Han family, and all the risks were borne by his Han family. It would be fine if he won the bet, and the Han family would be fine. Liu Xubai
He got a brewing recipe, but if he lost, Liu Xu would have nothing to lose, and the Han family would be in a desperate situation.
However, Han Liao only dared to think about these words in his heart. If he were to say them out, there was no guarantee that Liu Xu would just leave the matter alone. If that happened, there was no doubt whether Han Liao and his son would go out to the auction house tonight.
.
"Master Han, please don't worry. It's not like you don't know the skills of this guard under my command. Who can be his opponent in this Jizhou territory?" Liu Xu waved his hand, signaling Han Liao to calm down.
Although Shi was thinking about how to get the formula, the Han family held a very important position in his heart. After all, the Han family paid him a lot of money every year.
"Father, why don't we just believe the prince this time!" Han Qing knew Yan Liang's abilities, and only Liu Xu could settle the matter at this moment. He hesitated again and again, so he simply took a gamble.
"All right!"
Han Lao looked ugly and was undecided. After all, this was a major matter related to the life and death of hundreds of members of the Han family. But in this situation, if Liu Xu didn't take action, he really didn't know who would help him. Although there were some in his family
The guards were manned, but they were still on Zhu Hansan's territory at this time, and it was hard to say whether they could go out, let alone call someone. In desperation, Han Liao had no choice but to compromise and choose to trust Liu Xu for once.
Liu Xu was discussing, and Zhu Hansan was making plans in a low voice.
"Guan Hai, can you beat that Yan Liang?"
Zhu Hansan had heard of Yan Liang's name in his previous life, but with such interests before him, how could he not be tempted? Moreover, Liu Xu had come forward to protect the Korean material. If Zhu Hansan insisted on the bottom line again, I am afraid that the two sides would really fight tonight.
This was an event that Zhu Hansan did not want to see. After all, the auction house had just opened, and there was no chance of blood or loss of life.
After thinking about it, Zhu Hansan asked Guan Hai unwillingly.
"Replying to your lord, to be honest, I don't have any confidence in my heart. It's true that Yan Liang went to Taishan alone. If it were me, I really wouldn't dare to do that." Guan Hai smiled bitterly. He was not timid before fighting.
It's just a matter of fact, "However, I have never fought with him. The outcome is unpredictable. If you really want to bet, I will do my best."
"Wenyuan, what about you? How about facing Yan Liang?"
After Zhu Hansan heard this, he still didn't know what Guan Hai meant, but he didn't want the nine thousand gold coins to be lost, so he asked Zhang Liao unwillingly.
Han Liao brought few people tonight. If he missed it and let them leave this place, let alone owe him nine thousand gold. Even if he owed Zhu Han 390,000 gold, he would not be able to take it back. In the first place, this thing was just empty talk.
, when the time comes, people will report it to the Prime Minister, and they will beat him up, and Zhu Hansan will have to spend money to eliminate the disaster, and he has gained such an enemy in vain.
"Sir, even if my eldest brother is not his opponent, how can I be his opponent? If only in a few years, I might be sure to beat him."
Zhang Liao spread his hands and said with a bitter smile.
"Boy Zhang, don't talk nonsense. I haven't fought with him yet. How can you conclude that I am not his opponent?"
Guan Hai was not convinced and argued.
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Guan is right, the fight hasn't started yet, we can't be discouraged."
Zhang Liao didn't want to dampen Guan Hai's morale, so he nodded in agreement.
"Zhicai, what do you think?"
Zhu Hansan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then turned to look at Xi Zhicai and asked.
"In my opinion, this bet is a bit risky! It's better not to bet! Anyway, the price of the Korean material has just been raised. As long as you stick to this point, Lord Anping, there is nothing we can do about it. If we agree to the bet, just in case
If you lose, you won't get the money back! The Han family has fallen into a trap and we can't let them climb out again. This is a God-given opportunity!"
Seeing that Guan Hai lacked confidence, Xi Zhicai quickly suggested that Zhu Hansan give up gambling.
"Yes, Brother Xi is right. Look at me, my lord, don't bet. There is no shop like this after passing this village. As long as the Han family falls, my lord, you can show off your talents in the next year and compete with the classics."
Compared with the future happy life of tens of thousands of people in the county, we still have to be cautious!"
Zhang Liao knew some of Zhu Hansan's plans for the future, and he was very excited about it. After all, the idea of replacing farming with handicrafts as the mainstay of the local economy was very advanced. Even if Zhang Liao trusted Zhu Hansan, he would be worried about it.
He would take all uncertain factors into consideration for Zhu Hansan, not to mention the fact that it would affect the Han family in the future.
"You all think I shouldn't bet?" After knowing that the other party would send Yan Liang, how could Zhu Hansan still agree to it, but Liu Xu was so aggressive there, if he didn't agree, he might become a laughing stock, and it would be bad for his reputation if it spread.
, immediately smiled bitterly and said: "What reason can you find to reject him? That kid Liu Xu is not easy to get rid of!"
"If you want to impose a crime, there is no excuse, let alone this mere excuse. My lord, just say that the guard is ill and we can fight again tomorrow!" Xi Zhicai grinned and made up a random one.
reason.
"Xi Zhicai, what do you mean by this? Do you also think that I, Guan Hai, am not his rival for Yan Liang?" Guan Hai was not happy when he heard this, thinking that Xi Zhicai was looking down on him, and quickly asked Zhu Hansan for help.
"Sir, even if you agree, Guan Hai will definitely defeat Yan Liang so that the Han family will never be able to stand up again!"
"Well..." Zhu Hansan was a little confused and comforted: "We all know Brother Guan's martial arts skills, but he is just a Yanliang. How can we think that Brother Guan can't beat him!"
"Then please agree, sir!"
Guan Hai was eager to prove himself and urged.
"Nothing!" Zhu Hansan was at a loss for words. He glanced at Xi Zhicai and motioned for him to explain.
"Please be patient, guard, and wait until I have to say something else!"
Xi Zhicai had no choice but to explain, "We are auctioning Zuixianjiang this time just to break up the relationship between these aristocratic families. Now that the Han family and the Ma family have fallen out, Han Liao is even more furious.
, eyes turned red and shouted out the sky-high price of nine thousand gold. This is a perfect opportunity to suppress the Han family. We can't let him get away! Besides, this gambling fight involves the nine thousand gold. Let's think about it this way.
, even if we don’t bet on the fight, the Han family’s nine thousand gold will still have to be spent. If we bet with him, the nine thousand gold will be hard to come by! "
"Sir, is this what you mean?"
Guan Hai felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head. The newly ignited fighting spirit disappeared in an instant, and his mood became extremely depressed.
Xi Zhicai's words were very straightforward, and it was not difficult to hear what he meant. It was clear that he did not trust his Guan Hai's ability. How could this make the somewhat conceited Guan Hai Qing embarrassed?
"Perhaps Zhicai didn't make it clear that the nine thousand gold was owed to me by Han Lao. Why should we use it to gamble with him? Since we want to bet, why don't we collect the nine thousand gold first and then bet! No matter what the brothers' abilities are.
, I am very clear, why not, let’s get the nine thousand gold first, and then bet the three thousand gold with Liu Xu. Brother Guan, don’t worry, I will pay all the three thousand gold in the bet later.
Don’t be afraid even if we lose, we will just feed the dogs!”
Seeing that Guan Hai's face was a little ugly, Zhu Hansan quickly comforted him.
