Jinyiwei factory flower base love story

Gu Huaiqing followed the reputation, and the man who spoke was a strange man, who looked very young, but he was in his early 20s, tall and tall, his facial features were deeper and rougher than those of the Central Plains people, his complexion was a healthy brown, and his glazed eyes were piercing. God, he smiled showing a mouthful of neat and white teeth.

He wore a sable fur hood on his head, a long brown fur coat, a silky white fox fur collar that reached straight to his chest, a delicate silver sheathed scimitar dangling from his waist, and several inlaid scimitars on his fingers. Gemstone solid gold ring.

Behind this man stood two silent burly men, both brown-haired and blue-eyed, burly, more than eight feet tall, with bulging muscles, they looked like his bodyguards.

The three of them have obvious characteristics of foreigners, whether it is appearance, accent or clothing.The young man who spoke looked like a Hu-Han hybrid, while his two bodyguards were purely foreign.

Horse Market Day is a grand festival for people of all nationalities on the border. Merchants flock here from all directions.

Judging from his attire, the young man looks like a wealthy businessman from the Western Regions. However, Gu Huaiqing also has a sharp eye. He only feels that this man has sharp eyes and a good temperament. He doesn't look like a businessman, but he can also feel that the other party There was no malice in his gaze.

Gu Huaiqing was still looking at the other party, thinking about how to answer, and the shadow guard Xiao Hei jumped out first, protecting Gu Huaiqing behind him, and asked full of vigilance: "Who is your Excellency?"

The man didn't care about Xiao Hei's unfriendly attitude, he cupped his hands amiably like Han Li, and introduced himself: "Excuse me, let me introduce myself first. My name is Toli, and I come from Wusun Kingdom in the west , is a horse dealer who is engaged in horse trading. My ancestors handed down several good pastures, and my family runs the pasture, specializing in breeding fine Dawan horses. Just now I saw that the young master sincerely wanted to buy a good horse, so I couldn't help but speak out .”

A famous Dawan horse with excellent pedigree would sell for thousands of taels of silver in the capital, and the supply was in short supply. Gu Huaiqing was quite moved when he heard that.He saw that the other party seemed to be quite sincere, not to mention that the other party would not be able to play any tricks to deceive him under the eyes of everyone.What's more noteworthy is that the other party is from the Wusun country, so they can just take the opportunity of talking to spy on the Wusun country's intelligence and prepare for the treasure hunt.

Gu Huaiqing politely replied: "It turned out to be Brother Toli, it's a pleasure to meet you! My surname is Gu, and I am the third child. This is my righteous brother, surnamed Mo. We are all from Chang'an, and we need to go to the Western Regions for private reasons. The distance is far away, so I want to buy two good horses for transportation. It sounds like your horses should meet our needs, where is your stall, please take us there to have a look.”

Toli said: "To be honest, our business has always had a good reputation. The government of your country has cooperated with us to purchase war horses for a long time, so we don't set up stalls to sell them publicly. Basically, we have regular customers. Through The introduction of acquaintances will also contact new customers. We came here, and the horses we brought are almost sold out, but I still have two good horses. Please follow me. I believe you will like it after reading it. of."

There was a look of disapproval on Xiao Hei's face, but Gu Huaiqing followed Toli forward with great interest. Xiao Hei knew his temper, shook his head helplessly, and followed closely.

They followed Toli for half a stick of incense, and saw from a distance several caravans similar to those used by nomads for migration, which were filled with commodities purchased from the horse market, including silk, porcelain, exquisite Clothing, daily necessities, etc.

Several guys in charge of loading took off their hats and bowed to salute when they saw Toli, with a very respectful attitude.Tolly whispered a few words in a language they didn't understand, and then a servant who looked like a groom brought out two horses from the stable behind.

Those two horses were typical Western Region horses, with strong hooves, well-proportioned physique, and extraordinary steeds. At first glance, they were rare and good horses, completely different from the ordinary ones sold in the horse market just now.One of them is carmine red, named Chixia, and the other is snow white, named Xuelian.

This kind of Western Region horse is not as fat and strong as the horses raised by big families in the Central Plains. In fact, that kind of horse is just beautiful, but lacks endurance and foot strength. The Western Region horse is slightly smaller in size and weight, and is more suitable for the arid desert Gobi climate. , good at long-distance raids.

Gu Huaiqing was very pleased when he saw it, even Xiao Hei couldn't find fault with it.

Gu Huaiqing went up and touched the head of the rouge horse. The horse was quite human. He raised his head and barked twice, and then lowered his head to lick the back of Gu Huaiqing's hand. The other white horse was more calm, with gentle eyes showing bona fide.

"Oh, it seems that they like Mr. Gu very much!" Toli rubbed his chin in surprise, and said with a smile, "To be honest, these two horses are the best two in this batch of horses, and they are going to be given to the local people. It belonged to an officer, but the officer was temporarily transferred and left. I didn’t intend to sell them, I wanted to bring them back to Wusun Kingdom. Good horses are psychic, and they will choose their favorite owners. Since they are in love with you , I will present them to Mr. Gu."

When Gu Huaiqing heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "How can this be done? You and I are neither relatives nor relatives. The so-called no reward for no merit, how can I accept such an expensive gift for nothing?"

Xiao Hei took a step forward, took out three 1000 taels of bank notes from his pocket, handed them to Toli, and said, "Sir Toli, these two horses are really good, we would like to offer 3000 taels to buy them."

Toli frowned, and said displeasedly: "I don't sell these two horses, I only give them to my friends who I like. There is a saying among you that goes, a sword is given to a hero, and a good horse is a good man. We The family has been raising horses for generations, and they are also people who love horses. A good horse must be in the hands of the right person to display its value and not be buried. If you think highly of me and are willing to make me a friend, then accept the horse and take care of it in the future. Wait for them."

When Gu Huaiqing saw that Toli said so, it was inconvenient to refuse, so he simply thanked him and readily accepted the horse.Seeing that he was so straightforward, Toli also showed appreciation.

Gu Huaiqing saw that although Toli was a foreigner, he was very eloquent, forthright and generous, with a natural nobility, and looked very kind, which gave him a sense of intimacy.Gu Huaiqing thought for a while, took off the Pisces jade pendant around his waist, and gave it to Toli as a gift in return.

Gu Huaiqing said: "Brother Toli, although you and I met for the first time, we hit it off right away. I am touched by your generosity. The so-called respect is worse than obedience. I accept the horses without hesitation, and I will definitely treat them well. We people in the Central Plains also advocate reciprocity, if you give me a good horse, I will give you a jade pendant as a commemoration of our acquaintance, and I hope you will accept it."

Gu Huaiqing's white jade pendant was a congratulatory gift from Xiao Jing on his birthday in a certain year. It was made from rare Kunlun jade.

If this jade pendant falls into the hands of a knowledgeable person, it will be kept as a treasure.However, foreigners, especially nomads, prefer bright treasures such as gold, silver and precious stones, and I am afraid they don't pay much attention to jade pendants.

"Thank you Gu Xiandi for giving me such a beautiful jade pendant. I am very glad to meet a friend like you." Toli patted Gu Huaiqing's shoulder, put the jade pendant into the pocket of the fur coat solemnly, and asked, "I just heard you Said, I’m going to the Western Regions to do business, I don’t know where your destination is? You have to know that you are going to the west, after passing Jiayuguan, you will be in the desolate Gobi and desert, there is no human habitation for thousands of miles, drought and water shortage, if you don’t have a reliable local as a guide, I’m afraid it’s not easy to pass through, and you might even get lost, posing life-threatening danger.”

Gu Huaiqing nodded and said: "Thank you for your reminder, brother, we are prepared for the hardships of this trip. To tell you the truth, the destination of our westward trip is your country, but your country seems to restrict the entry of foreigners, and the customs clearance documents are difficult to get Now, I would like to ask if there is any way for us to enter your country smoothly?"

Toli laughed loudly and said: "You are asking the right person! Since you are going to Wusun Kingdom, you might as well go with our convoy! We travel to and from the Western Regions and Daqi all the year round, and customs clearance documents are not a problem. We will set off in the afternoon. Township, the two of you can join us, so we can take care of you on the way."

Gu Huaiqing also felt that it made sense, but Xiao Hei frowned and tugged at his sleeves, shaking his head slightly, motioning him to think twice.

In the end, Gu Huaiqing politely declined Toli's invitation. Firstly, he didn't know the identity of Toli after all, and they acted according to a secret order. It would be troublesome if they were exposed; secondly, he had to go to Jiayuguan to meet Duan Mingchen first. Get together for a few days before leaving for Wusun, but it is impossible for Toli's motorcade to stop at Jiayuguan and wait for them.

Seeing Gu Huaiqing's refusal, Toli expressed a bit of regret, but he didn't force it. He asked someone to bring a pen and paper, and wrote a letter in Wusun language, then sealed it and handed it to Gu Huaiqing, saying: "Your brother arrived in Wusun If you encounter border guards at the border of Sun State, hand this letter to them, and they will let you go when they see it."

Gu Huaiqing took the letter and joked with a smile: "From this point of view, Xiongtai should be a famous big shot in Wusun country!"

Toli smiled slightly smugly, with a trace of embarrassment on his handsome face: "It's easy to say, because it's just a little thin-skinned to go to and from the border all the year round."

Gu Huaiqing solemnly cupped his hands and said: "Anyway, thank you very much for your help, brother. Let's take our leave. We will meet later!"

Toli also imitated the etiquette of the Central Plains and clasped his fists, saying meaningfully: "My dear brother, take care, and we will meet again if we are destined. I have a hunch that we will meet again in the near future."
