The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 12 Gambling King in Xialangmeng County

Riding on another horse, Li Er went to Wangjiazhuang first with the written documents written by Wang Ying himself, to receive the house deed, land deed and servant deed, and sell it for cash.

Cheng Yuanzhi led the horse, and Wang Ying sat on the horse's back, and the two walked slowly.

After the conversation was made clear, the life-saving grace turned into a transaction, and it was difficult for both parties to maintain the situation of old charity and young charity.

Wang Ying's face was dark and bitter, he refused to say another word, Cheng Yuanzhi was also happy and quiet.

Along the way, the two of them had no communication.
Although the method was a little unsportsmanlike, Cheng Yuanzhi was very calm in his heart.

Asking for rewards for good deeds is not moral corruption. What Wang Ying needed was to escape from the tiger's mouth and a horse to travel. Cheng Yuanzhi satisfied him both times, and the only thing Cheng Yuanzhi needed was money...

Both sides get what they want.

This matter has existed since ancient times. Even Sage Confucius once warned his disciples that they must ask for rewards for doing good deeds. Otherwise, over time, those who have received favors will take it for granted, and there will be no good people in the world.

Even if Wang Ying was dissatisfied afterwards, he could not find any fault when he went to the government.

It is both reasonable and logical to repay the two life-saving graces at the expense of one's family and property.

Unless the other party disregards the image and uses the power of the family to push [-] and refuse the account by force.

Regarding this point, Cheng Yuanzhi was not worried at all, the Wang family was a respectable person in Taiyuan City, a model of the aristocratic family, taking face into consideration, they would never turn their faces over this matter.

However, because of this gap, the probability of stumbling afterward is still very high.

So ah, it is very necessary to sell and discount,
Once the money is in hand, it's a slap in the butt, whether it's a new place to buy a property or start a business, even if it's recruiting soldiers, it can be considered as having the starting capital.

Thinking of the wonderful point, Cheng Yuanzhi nodded secretly, I am such a self-improving person who solves all difficulties with wisdom and never breaks the system by anything!

When it was getting dark, the two of them walked to the outside of Langmeng County.

Arriving in Langmeng County, basically entered the hinterland of Taiyuan Prefecture.

Langmeng County is about a hundred miles away from Jinyang, the seat of Taiyuan Prefecture. There are many dangerous mountains and dangerous roads here. Hu and Han people live together, and the folk customs are quite tough.

The gates of the city are covered with notices, and some city officials are reading the contents aloud, so as to let the passing merchants understand the rules of Langmeng County and Bingzhou.

Langmeng County is located in a strategically important place with a small population. Because it is responsible for preventing the Hu people from going south to plunder, the city is not small.

The city is built on the mountain, easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are two walls in the city alone, the outer city and the inner city.There is also an urn city between the outer city and the inner city.

Usually there are guards in the outer city around the clock, the city gates are open day and night, and no one can enter or leave the outer city at night. If you want to leave the city, you have to prepare in advance, otherwise you can only wait until the next day.

Cheng Yuanzhi secretly admired the majesty of the city and the detailed rules.

Although these rules and regulations restricted the development of commerce to a certain extent, they greatly improved the safety of the city.

It can protect the people to live in troubled times.

At this time, the voice of the announcement changed and became solemn:

"Zhang Yi, the governor of Bingzhou, announced to the people under his rule that although the Yellow Turban has been wiped out, the remaining evils have not been cleared up. There are many people who occupy the mountains and become kings, cutting paths and robbing roads. Tell the people, if it is not necessary, do not go far into the rivers and lakes."

"Ah..." Listening to the announcement, Wang Ying sighed heavily when thinking of what happened to him being robbed.

"Ugh!"

The world is not peaceful. Cheng Yuanzhi followed closely and sighed. He also remembered his experience of being robbed.

Just as he was sighing, a loud shout suddenly sounded behind him:
"Hey, bastard, I can understand the old man sighing. Why are you sighing like this, a seven-foot tall man? If you are bullied, just beat him back!"

Hearing the sound and looking back, the speaker was a 25-year-old, mighty-looking, strong man with a height of more than seven feet, followed by a yellow-faced follower, carrying two long swords, it was not good at first glance.

Cheng Yuanzhi didn't want to talk to him, so he shook his head and sighed again:
"Ah~"

Sigh, turn around and leave.

The brawny man was not happy immediately, and blocked the way with his arms folded, he blew his beard and stared and said:
"Hey, if you have something to say, just say it, why hesitate like a woman? If you don't make it clear today, I won't let you go into the city!"

"You are not a city guard, I am not a bandit, why stop me?"

Cheng Yuanzhi had no choice but to stop, unable to walk, he guessed that he would not be able to beat the opponent, so he had no choice but to reason.

The tall and strong man glanced at him: "A certain surname is Zhang Mingyang, you can stop whoever you want!"

His tone was as casual as eating and drinking, and one could tell that this kind of thing was done a lot.

There is no limit to the arrogance.

Make a fool of yourself?As expected, it was really reckless. Cheng Yuanzhi once again weighed the combat capabilities of both sides and chose to settle the matter:

"How are you doing?"

Zhang Yang snorted and patted his belly: "If you can guess what I ate for lunch, I'll let you go there, if you can't... tell me why I sigh, I hate people who can't say enough in my life, Hesitating!"

At this time, the people gathered at the gate of the city saw that there was a lot of excitement, and stopped to watch. The city officials stopped reading the notice, and looked around from the outside, and raised their arms and shouted:

"Guess, guess!"

"Strong man, guess with him!"

"Guess with him! Guess with him!" The common people also echoed loudly, excitedly.

People who eat melons are the most annoying, they just know how to interrupt and make noises. Cheng Yuanzhi shook his head and refused:

"The stakes are too small, don't guess."

Since we know that the other party is a reckless person, we must make a careful calculation and strive to maximize the benefits.

Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, waved his hand, took two swords, and took a bag of broken silver from the entourage.

"Here are a hundred taels of silver and two swords. If you guess what I ate for lunch, all the silver swords will be yours."

"If you can't figure it out, heh heh... your horse belongs to me!"

There is one more sentence that Zhang Yang refrained from saying. He is a native of Bingzhou Yunzhong. A rare thousand-mile horse.

This bet is so hard, so hard!

Both silver and sword are good. Cheng Yuanzhi burst into laughter in his heart, but waved his hands again and again and said: "No, it's not good to lose too much. Everyone should take a step back. I don't guess, you give me half of the bet."

"That's very good..." Zhang Yang weighed the sword, then looked at the silver, with a tangled look on his face. He was about to hand over the sword when he was pulled by the yellow-faced follower. He reacted instantly and said angrily:

"Ah! You cunning man, do you guess?"

Cheng Yuanzhi nodded: "So, you must make this bet? If I guess right, you won't regret it, right?"

"No!" The onlookers said in unison, answering the question for Zhang Yang.

"How do you know that?" Cheng Yuanzhi was taken aback, Zhang Yang has such a good reputation among the people?
I do not know how? ! !
"Because he is Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang of Zhang Yang, Yang of Zhang Yang!" This time it was a quick-talking commoner who spoke out first.

Zhang Yang raised his neck and looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle. The complacency in his expression could kill a person.

Cheng Yuanzhi laughed and didn't mind, he let go of the rein, walked around Zhang Yang, stretched his nose to smell left and right, then looked at Zhang Yang and said:
"Open your mouth!"

Zhang Yang quickly opened his mouth, only gave Cheng Yuanzhi a glance, then quickly closed it, and immediately said triumphantly: "Can you guess it? I can give you three chances!"

He ate his lunch in the morning, and it is now dusk, with an interval of three or four hours. In addition, he usually likes to bet and guess meals with others, so he has the habit of rinsing his mouth after eating...

Therefore, he didn't believe that the strong little boy on the opposite side could guess it.

Cheng Yuanzhi frowned and said nothing, he was [-]% to [-]% sure, but not quite enough.

"Hahaha... If you can't guess, then this horse..."

Zhang Yang laughed three times, and made a gesture to lead the horse.

That's a BMW!He knows that a thousand horses are easy to get, but a BMW is hard to find.

Now the horse's surname is Zhang...

"Wait a minute!"

Cheng Yuanzhi raised his hand to stop him, "If I'm not wrong, your lunch must be fried...cake...roll...big...scallions!"

"No!" Zhang Yang laughed loudly, feeling that he was already sure of victory. No one could imagine what he had for lunch.

"That's the scallion roll pancake!" Cheng Yuanzhi's tone was very sure, and his words were convincing.

The strong smell of scallions on the opponent's body cannot be faked.

"How do you know?" Zhang Yang asked subconsciously, his expression changed dramatically.

Many locals know that he loves to eat pancake rolls with green onions, which has led to him losing more and winning less recently. Therefore, he deliberately changed his way of eating today and specially selected an outsider to gamble.

Unexpectedly, I was guessed right.

Cheng Yuanzhi glanced at the yellow-faced entourage and felt that his aura was a bit dark, so he looked directly at Zhang Yang and said with a smile:
"I'll scare you when I say my name. I am Wuming, the pavilion chief of Langmeng County... Oh no, I am Yuan She, the new gambling king of Langmeng County."

"I'm willing to bet and admit defeat, you won't renege on your debt, will you?"

100 taels of silver plus two swords, if it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't give up so quickly.

Cheng Yuanzhi squinted his eyes, secretly on guard.

He was worried that the other party would go back on his word and would get angry and beat him up.

But the other party didn't become angry from embarrassment, Zhang Yang handed him the silver and the sword readily, rubbed his hands and asked:
"If you are the gambling king, what about me?

You know, he is the former gambling king of Langmeng County!

He has no objection to Yuan She being the king of gambling, but he also wants a title.

Cheng Yuanzhi put away the sword and silver, and smiled slightly.

"Well, you are naturally the new charity gambling king of Langmeng County."

After all, he took the reins and stepped into the city.

Behind him, Zhang Yang kept chasing after him, and at the same time kept talking.

"Where is your brother from? Where did you come from, and where are you going?"

"Why is Xiongtai's gambling skills so exquisite, so easy to hit the target with just one word?"

"Brother, can you teach me how to win every bet? I have a good reward..."

Ulla Ulla Ulla Ulla...

　I have something to do today, let me be more respectful first.

　　Ask for collection, ask for investment, ask for everything.
