Chapter 226 Destruction tirelessly
It seems that my words just now were in vain, and this kid didn't listen to them at all.
A feeling of powerlessness surged throughout his body. Su Lie found that his brother-in-law was really brave, and he didn't know whether it was right or wrong for his sister to marry him.
As I just said, Shanyin County does not produce horses, and even if it produces horses, it is impossible to produce another 10,000 war horses in a short period of time. So the 10,000 war horses that Li Muyun just mentioned must have come from Xue Yantuo. All I miss is that he doesn't know what method he used to get them, but I guess it wouldn't be a formal channel.
Thinking of this, Su Lie sighed and looked at Li Muyun and said helplessly: "If you really have 10,000 war horses, I can tell you clearly that at most you can sell 20,000 yuan. No matter how much it is, it is impossible."
"Why?" Li Muyun asked back.
He didn't believe that the market of the Tang Dynasty would be saturated. Tens of thousands of horses were almost a drop in the bucket to the Tang Dynasty. If he threw it into the military camp, he would be afraid that he would not even be able to hit the water.
"Because the Ministry of Civil Affairs does not have that much money to buy these horses, the price of one horse has been reduced to about 8 knots. If you get another 10,000 war horses in the short term, it is estimated that the Ministry of Civil Affairs can reduce the price to 7 knots per horse." Su Lie replied with a wry smile.
"Why? Is the market really saturated? It shouldn't be?!" Li Muyun didn't understand why this situation happened. After all, the heroes and families in Chang'an took over the war horses. They would never let their money go away no matter what. How could they accept it if they lost so much?
However, Su Lie quickly gave the answer. Looking at Li Muyun who was puzzled, Old Su snorted and said, "It's because the treasury has no money. It's just a few days after the war. The treasury is empty and can almost starve rats to death. Where can I still have money to buy war horses."
Li Muyun had never thought about the problem of the lack of money in the treasury. Because he was a first-hand dealer, he had never dealt with the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Tang Jian, the Minister of Civil Affairs, who became a monk halfway through, was a half-tongued person, and he could barely know how much money there was in the treasury, and he didn't understand the price regulation at all.
So when he was in Shanyin County, he never talked about this issue. It is also possible that he had never thought of it. Or maybe he thought of it, but he didn't expect that Li Muyun would not give up and even wanted to cheat Xue Yantuo once, and the war horse business could still score twice, so he didn't say it.
But no matter what, when things come to this point, Li Muyun cannot let go. He generously assumed that guy was a good product in his opinion. If he killed him or exchanged him for 20,000 guan, Comrade Li chose the latter.
Thinking of this, Li Muyun had to sigh at the depreciation of the "goods" in his hands.
...
As time passed, the afternoon passed slowly before we knew it. Just before sunset, someone came to report that a group of officers and soldiers from Chang'an arrived with a batch of "goods".
"Let's go and see your things together." When Su Lie saw the yamen runners coming in, he also saw the personal guards responsible for escorting money, so he waved to Li Muyun, stood up and walked out.
Money is not omnipotent, but it is absolutely impossible to have no money. Li Muyun deeply believed this, so after hearing that his money had arrived, he immediately followed Su Lie and walked out of the county government with Gongsun Lan, who was worried.
When he arrived outside the county government, Li Muyun was immediately stunned by the spectacular images in front of him.
I saw dozens of large trucks lined up from the county government gate to the distant corner of the street. As for whether there was still no sight behind the corner due to the visual problem.
This is all money, a lot of money! Everything before Li Muyun, money has become a number, represented by a thin card or a thin piece of paper.
However, in the Tang Dynasty, the money was real, with 20,000 jin of copper coins and 128,000 jin. It didn't seem much, but when I saw it, the scene could no longer be described as spectacular.
"These are all yours. Think about where to put them." Su Lie looked at Li Muyun in a daze and did not mean to laugh at him, because when Chang'an loaded the money into the car, he was not much better than Comrade Xiao Li.
Li Muyun looked at the long convoy and was also a little confused about where to put the money, but you can tell, this man seemed to be very good when he was anxious. After thinking for a moment, he thought of a place and turned to Su Lie with a little confusion: "Brother, why don't you take some time and let the brothers drive the car to the prison."
"..." Su Lie looked at Li Muyun speechlessly, and had to admire his inspiration.
But to be honest, in Shanyin County, the prison cell seems to be the best place to save money, because no matter the county warehousing or other places, it is actually not that safe. There is only one exit from the prison. There are also several door locks, which can be used to lock money.
It is better to act than to act. If you think about it, you will do it. Su Lie naturally would not object to his brother-in-law’s request, so the convoy turned and drove towards Shanyin prison.
However, the Shanyin County prison was not empty at this time. There were still more than a dozen Xueyantuo people, including the Second Prince Xueyantuo. So when the prison door was opened, I immediately heard the extremely resentful voice of Dadushi: "I am the Second Prince Xueyantuo. I didn't steal anything, I didn't steal anything! You can let me go quickly, otherwise I will definitely bring thousands of troops to flatten Shanyin County!"
Su Lie stood at the door of the prison and rubbed his ears, looking suspiciously at Li Muyun: "What are the people inside just shouting?"
Li Muyun shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Oh, some time ago, Xue Yantuo's second prince generously pretended to be a businessman and ran to the county. However, he didn't expect that his business was fake, and his stealing of our steelmaking skills was real. After being caught, he refused to admit his account. I had no choice but to lock him up first."
"You..., you." Su Lie never expected that he had just warned this kid not to play with fire, not to play with fire, and not to do something like robbing Xue Yantuo in the future. As a result, the goods actually got the second prince Xue Yantuo locked up in his prison.
Isn't this a bullshit? Just now, what did this guy say about 10,000 horses? Could it be that he would want to exchange this guy for 10,000 war horses? This is even more bullshit. How could Zhenzhu Yinan pay 10,000 good horses for a son? The biggest possibility is to lead troops to kill them.
On the other hand, Gongsun Lan, who was originally worried, finally realized that he had really underestimated the courage of Li Muyun. He thought that the black disaster he dared to instruct him to kill people was enough. Now it seems that killing a Han Qiang is not really a great thing compared to imprisoning Prince Xue Yantuo.
However, Li Muyun did not think there was anything wrong with what he did. The bastard in the prison dared to tease his woman. Not killing him on the spot was already considered a very favorable face to the Zhenzhuyinan, and what could he be imprisoned?
But when he saw Su Lie who was almost vomiting blood, he hesitated for a moment and pulled him aside, whispered the reason why he was imprisoned and generous, then looked at Lao Su and said, "Brother, do you say this? Is it considered a good temper to not kill him?"
"You might as well kill him directly and find a place where no one is going to kill the matter. Without knowing it, you are trapping him here like this. Tang Jian went to Xue Yantuo with the so-called evidence. Do you think that the true pearl-Yi Man will come to take revenge? You can do something disguised. Do you think Xue Yantuo can't do it?"
After hearing Li Muyun's explanation, Su Lie felt a little angry and generous in his heart, rationally he still felt that Li Muyun had done something wrong.
Even Gongsun Lan nodded and agreed: "Yes, as this person, killing directly may be a simple place. Staying there is nothing wrong with it."
"It's stinking!" Su Lie seemed to think that Gongsun Lan's description was a bit inadequate, so he added.
Li Muyun curled his lips, looked at Su Lie with some contempt, then looked at Gongsun Lan, and sighed and said, "The wisdom of mortals!"
"What? The wisdom of mortals? You..." Gongsun Lan, as a figure in the martial arts world, naturally had no good temper. She was originally kind-hearted but was regarded as a donkey by Li Muyun, and her anger suddenly surged.
But Li Muyun waved his hand carelessly before she could finish her words: "I'll tell you about this later, and arrange for someone to carry things first."
"Sure, you'd better explain your idea of not being an ordinary person later. Su happened to want to see it!" Su Lie said angrily, and waved his hand to the soldiers escorting the carriage and said, "Please all the money and send it into the cell."
"No!" A group of big-headed soldiers responded, and then became busy.
Li Muyun arranged for the prison chief to open the empty cells in the prison to facilitate the handling of the boxes for money.
...
"Okay, now you can tell me what you think?" When the soldiers started working, Su Lie pulled Li Muyun aside and asked.
"My thought is very simple, haven't I told you just now that I want to exchange that guy for some money!" Li Muyun looked at Su Lie and Gongsun Lan in pain, as if he was really worried about their intelligence.
"Li Muyun, don't let this girl look down on you. Do you still want a foreigner who insulted his woman to live?" Gongsun Lan said with some contempt after hearing Li Muyun's explanation. As for someone's painful eyes, she automatically ignored it.
"Who said I want him to live, this kind of scum is dead."
"If he dies, how can you change horses?" Su Lie asked with his arms around.
"Well, the problem lies here. This is the difference between a mortal and a wise man." Li Muyun smiled strangely, and then said unstoppably: "I just want to exchange his body for ten thousand war horses. If some people don't give me ten thousand war horses, I will release him!"
