A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 524: A Certain Shen An

It’s not hot in Xiongzhou in early summer, and the sun is only slightly warm.

There is a business here, and the people who come and go the most are merchants.

Businessmen value profit over separation, but everyone’s heart is made of flesh, and they will feel sad and missing after being away from home for a long time.

At this time, wine is the best companion.

This place is still some distance from Xiongzhou City, and the wine shops on the roadside are naturally incomparable to those in the city. It is common for wine to be mixed with water, and it is even more common for the dishes to be rough.

But everyone goes out to make money, and they have long been accustomed to hardship.

At this moment, more than a dozen businessmen were drinking in the wine shop, and their waiters were guarding the goods outside, munching meat buns in their hands.

Li Yi is a businessman who travels between the north and the south all year round.

This kind of long-distance business trip must be accompanied, otherwise it is easy to get into trouble.

Li Yi smiled very reservedly. His partner Chen Yong sat opposite and cursed: "Made, this wine is at least half mixed with water. That water is also wicked. It is not well water, but river water. Drink it." A smell."

Li Yi glanced at the others and whispered: "Don't cause trouble."

Chen Yong said angrily: "You are so scared, why don't you dare to mix water with water and not let anyone tell you?"

"Who said this wine was spiked with water?"

The shopkeeper seemed to have the magical ability of clairvoyance and came out from behind in a swish.

Chen Yong wanted to continue spraying, but when Li Yi saw the shopkeeper holding a kitchen knife in his hand, he laughed and said, "Brother X drank too much. He drank too much."

The shopkeeper glanced at him sideways and said, "If you don't want to eat, leave early, but you can't lose a penny."

Chen Yong was furious when he heard this and was about to get angry when several men came outside.

"They are from Liao!"

People from Liao generally only appear in the market, and it is considered a violation to come here. However, Song and Liao have been at peace for many years, and there are many people who violate the rules, but no one is pursuing them.

These Liao people looked like businessmen at first glance. When they came in, they said in proficient Song dialect: "Bring me good wine, and ask for more good meat."

The shopkeeper immediately changed his smile and said, "Come right away, come right away."

The merchants of the Song Dynasty looked around with some fear, not wanting to sit with the Liao merchants.

Several Liao merchants found a place to sit down, but they were next to Li Yi.

Then the wine and meat were served. Chen Yong just sniffed it and said in a low voice: "There is no water in their wine."

"Eat, then go to the city."

Li Yi was eating without squinting. He knew very well that these Liao merchants could not be offended, otherwise they would be beaten up and there would be no way to complain.

Chen Yong cursed in a low voice, then lowered his head to eat.

Several Liao merchants devoured half-full food, then slowly drank wine and said proudly: "I heard that there are thieves in Xiongzhou recently?"

"Yes, the Song people gathered a lot of troops to encircle and suppress them, hey!"

The Liao merchant who spoke had a look of helplessness on his face. But the gloating in his eyes clearly told everyone: Song people are just weak and stupid!

Another Liao merchant sighed: "Those Song merchants don't dare to leave the market."

"Why?"

"They were robbed several times and more than ten people died. Those Song merchants either hid in the city or stayed in the forecourt."

"It's pitiful. Our goods and people can travel unimpeded. It can be seen that those thieves are also afraid of Daliao's cavalry."

"Song people..."

A Liao merchant looked at the Song merchants who lowered their heads and sneered: "Isn't that what they are like? After being arrested for a long time, those thieves are still at large!"

Businessmen have many necessary qualities, the most important of which is endurance.

In order to make money, they have to endure all the negative emotions the world throws at them.

For example, oppression.

The merchants of Song Dynasty were all chewing with their heads down, and so was Li Yi.

Many things will pass with patience, but as for the thief... Haha!

I really think everyone is a fool!

Those thieves are wandering around this area, and God knows how many people are passing messages to them.

Li Yi looked at these Liao merchants and couldn't help but sneered.

Isn't it because they are here illegally to get information from those 'thieves'?

What are the merchants doing here?

There are no business opportunities here, no customers, just desolation.

So it’s okay if everyone knows it well, but these Liao merchants still come out to disgust people, most of which are to provoke the generals. If anyone knows what Song Dynasty will do next to those 'thieves', they are very angry at this moment and will probably tell them.

That's a leak!

"I'll definitely catch it!"

Chen Yong said angrily: "As long as they dare not run away, they will definitely be caught, and then...then be killed and turned into Jingguan!"

The atmosphere in the wine shop suddenly became tense. The shopkeeper was no longer alert and could not come out.

The Song merchants in the wine shop noticed something and ate quickly, preparing to leave before a conflict broke out.

The Liao merchants stood up with a sneer. Some picked up their stools, while others took out short blades...

"Jingguan?"

Someone outside asked: "Who wants to build a Jingguan?"

"guest……"

The shopkeeper came out again, his ears and eyes were amazing.

But he was like a goose stuck by the neck, his body leaned back, and his eyes were more alert.

"Dare you ask the guest what he wants?"

There were many people coming and going in Xiongzhou, and he had seen all kinds of people, but the identity of the young man in front of him, who was surrounded by several big men, made him unable to guess his identity.

But he actually asked who wanted to build a Jingguan. This was a guest who would bring trouble.

He didn't want to do this young man's business, but a big man behind the young man glanced at him, his eyes were calm but extremely cold.

This is the look in the eyes of a butcher who has killed many people.

Damn it, who are these people?

The shopkeeper shouted: "Door panel..."

"coming!"

There was a sound of rapid footsteps, and then a very tall man came behind.

The big man's eyes widened and he said, "Who is causing trouble?"

The shopkeeper glanced at Shen An and when he saw his smile, he scolded: "Go back and cook! Be honest, or I will kill you!"

This is a threat.

No matter who it is, don’t cause trouble! Otherwise I will kill you.

The big man scratched his head and went back, and everyone realized that he was feeling a little depressed just now.

Tall people always make people uncomfortable. Everyone felt relieved and looked at the new arrivals carefully.

Several Liao merchants were also looking at them. They murmured to each other, probably thinking it was not a good thing.

"One bowl of mutton soup cake for each person. Let's get some vegetables to finish. Hurry up."

After Shen An sat down, Wen Xiaozhong leaned over and asked, "Mr. Lang, do you want..."

He looked at those Liao merchants with unkind eyes.

"They must be spies."

Shen An shook his head and said, "Don't shout and kill, that's not good. Let's eat."

The soup cakes are very solid, with little soup and full of dry ingredients.

Everyone ate and drank for a while, but the pot-bellied guys were not full, but they were just filling their stomachs at the moment, and they would have a big meal later when they entered the city.

"Bill, please."

After giving the money, Shen An took Wen Xiaozhong and the others out.

"What are these people doing? Except for that young man, everyone else is cold and cold, as if they want to kill someone."

"I don't know, but he seems not afraid of anything."

"Yes, even those Liao merchants didn't dare to speak."

"It's not that they didn't dare to speak, but they were thinking, and look, they followed him out."

Li Yi gave the money and saw that the shopkeeper refused to go out to watch the fun, so he said, "Let's leave later."

But Chen Yong said excitedly: "Let's see if they dare to scold the Liao people. Let's go and have a look."

Chen Yong rushed out, Li Yi shook his head and had no choice but to go watch the fun.

There were only four people in Shen An's group. After mounting his horse, he turned around and glanced at the Liao merchants and said, "On the left."

On the left is to go to a remote place, and to go straight along the official road is to Xiongzhou City.

"It's deserted over there, what are they doing there?"

"Who knows, maybe it was poop."

"Nonsense!"

"Hey! Those Liao people followed."

"Would you like to go take a look?"

"OK!"

Several Song merchants followed the Liao merchants on horseback, ready to see what these two groups were planning to do.

Li Yi was a little nervous, but mostly annoyed at being wasted.

But he and Chen Yong are partners. They are going all the way from the south to the north. There are many dangers along the way. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are dependent on each other, so he cannot leave Chen Yong alone.

After about three miles out, someone suddenly pointed to the left and said, "There seems to be movement."

Li Yi stared blankly to the left, and Chen Yong beside him exclaimed: "It's cavalry...it's black armor, who are they?"

The cavalry of the Song Dynasty did not have black armor, and neither did the Liao people.

Where did these cavalry come from?

A group of black-armored cavalry appeared from the left. They spread out their formation and came over like a fishing net.

The merchants were so disappointed that they were so curious that they came to watch the fun. This is great, I've lost my life just watching the fun.

They want to run.

"There's one in the back too!"

"There's one on the right, too."

"What about the front?"

In front are Shen An and four others.

"There are only four of them, rush over!"

Businessmen thought they would be killed or blackmailed.

Which one is more serious, being killed and losing your life, blackmailing and losing money?

In the eyes of businessmen, money is life.

So fight!

So they headed forward, but Liao Shang was faster.

The Liao merchants drew out their short blades and roared.

"Song people, you will be killed. Jingguan, whose Jingguan... belongs to you!"

"Kill them!"

"Keep that young man alive and use him as a hostage!"

"..."

Li Yi just watched the Liao merchants rushing over, watching the first Liao merchant yelling strangely and slashing with his sword.

In terms of speed, his sword skills are probably better than those of ordinary sergeants.

This is not a businessman!

He was worried about Shen An, who was rushing ahead.

Although you will bring danger, you are from Song Dynasty. I hope you can hide away and then let us go.

Then he saw Shen An blocking the sword casually. Just as the Liao Shang was about to chop him again, Yan Baoyu swung the sword casually.

The light of the knife flashed from the neck...

This Liao merchant probably had a lot of blood, so his head was flushed with blood, and the horrified expression on his face did not change.

Shen An frowned and said, "I want to survive!"

Yan Baoyu rushed forward, swinging his long sword, and only heard a few jingles, and the remaining Liao people were thrown off their horses one by one.

"Tied."

Shen An ordered very calmly. The blood from earlier spattered on his face, but he was not afraid at all.

"Is this... the young man the Liao people want to capture alive? They thought it was a lamb, but they didn't expect it to be a wolf."

"I thought this young man was not good just now."

"He's coming."

The surrounding cavalry had gathered around, and the Song merchants dismounted and knelt down.

No one dared to take the initiative to speak.

Many times, trouble is actually caused by talking too much.

At this time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net silence is golden.

The feet moved back and forth in front of them.

Young people must be pacing and thinking about our life and death.

The Song Shang people even held their breath, and their timid bodies were trembling.

"You haven't come here today."

Li Yi raised his head in disbelief and said ecstatically: "Yes, the villain has never been here, the villain has never been here."

They thought that after witnessing this fight, they would be silenced, but they did not expect that this young man would graciously let them go.

What a happy event!

Li Yi got up, preparing to go to Xiongzhou City to deliver the goods immediately, and then left the north.

Who knows when this young man will regret it? It would be prudent to leave immediately.

But Chen Yong said gratefully: "If you dare to ask Mr. Lang's name, I'll treat you to a drink next time."

At this moment, Li Yi just wanted to strangle his partner!

This young man is not the scholars in his hometown, he kills people without blinking an eye!

How on earth do you want to live even after knowing his name?

Seeking death!
