90. The Shadow Approaching Chengdu [3/5]

----

"It's really not what I painted, it grew on the trees in my garden." Han Daosi pouted.

The bank manager snorted, took the silver note over, and first reached out to rub the paper. The paper used for the money note was different from ordinary paper. It was very thick, tough, and not easy to wear, and... the formula of this paper was never out of the way, so it was difficult to imitate. As soon as he got the silver note, he had to deal with money for a long time and knew immediately that the paper was fine.

So he took the silver note in front of him and carefully observed that every pattern on it was not missed. The prints on the silver note were also particular, especially some corners that were difficult for imitators to notice, secretly printed with secret secret notes of the highest secret of the Da Meng Kingdom. However, after he looked carefully, he found that these places were perfect, and this silver note was probably real.

But he has another thing that can be used for verification, and that is the breaking point!

A silver note of 100,000 taels is a super large amount. When such a large denomination is issued, the shopkeepers of the money shop often mark it on it. For example, if they are to a certain cloth shop, they will use their nails to make a small broken item at two millimeters in the upper left corner. If they are to a certain salt dealer, they will open a small broken item at four millimeters in the lower right corner.

He was interested in the identity of this little girl and couldn't help but find a gap on the silver note. After a careful touch, he was shocked: Ah...yes...this...this...this...this silver note was issued by me personally, and it was issued to the Prince of Shu. It belonged to the black income of the Prince of Shu. A little bit of the right part below the bill was a small gap that he deliberately made with the nail of the thumb of his right hand. This was a special mark of the silver note of the Prince of Shu.

"You are... you are... little..." The shopkeeper of the money shop immediately understood who the girl in front of him was. Sweat flowed all over the ground, and the little princess almost blurted out the words. Fortunately, he was clever and swallowed it back the moment he was about to say it. Oh my mother, I have heard that the Prince of Shu has a daughter, Airu, I want the moon in the sky to ask someone to pick it... Unexpectedly... the girl in front of him was actually the little princess whom the Prince of Shu loves him, and she called this man cousin, who is this guy? He heard that his accent was Sichuan dialect. Then he was the son of a prince who was enfeoffed in Sichuan.

The bank manager's mind quickly turned around twice. There were two princes enthroned in Sichuan, including Shu Prince and Yu Prince. They were all extremely powerful guys. Then this young man, of course, is Prince Yu Prince... Chongqing evil young man Zhu Yun... royal relatives!

The water is so deep, I'll flash it!

The shopkeeper of the money shop retreated aside in sweat and shouted: "This silver note is true!"

"What?" The onlookers were shocked. Is the little girl's silver notes real? Then can the trees in her back garden really grow silver notes? Could the little girl be the one who is enjoying us?

Many wealthy businessmen present were smart and experienced in shopping malls. When these people looked at Han Daosi seriously, they felt that the little girl's spiritual platform was clear and her eyes were extremely clear. She didn't look like a lie at all. In other words, it was true that silver notes were found on the trees in her back garden. At this moment, the merchants couldn't help but gasp, and a bold man came over and asked, "Little girl, does your back garden have a money tree?"

Han Daosi laughed and said, "There are trees that grow silver notes, and the trees that have Jiangjin rice candy, and the trees that have old Sichuan beef jerky... There are all kinds of trees."

Everyone: "..."

A group of wealthy businessmen finally understood that this little girl was not a lie or not, but a lunatic at all.

"Poor little girl, she looks so cute, her head is not good." The rich businessmen shook their heads and scattered.

With the shopkeeper of the big cute money shop as a testimony, there is no need to doubt the authenticity of the silver notes. Sai Wanjin smiled and collected the silver notes, handed over the promotion certificate to Yi Yun, and then shouted: "Okay, today's promotion certificate auction is over perfectly. Next time I get something good, I will notify everyone."

"Tsk, that's just a little thing, it's boring!" The rich businessmen booed him a few times and began to leave the court.

Yi Yun gained a lot. One can be converted to a militia, one can be converted to a eunuch, one can be converted to a businessman, and one can be converted to an armorer. He actually got four promotion certificates in a short time. It seems that having money can make the devil push the mill is not just a joke. Unfortunately, these four promotion certificates are not high-end, and they are all low-end professions of first- and second-level. I only bought it with so much money, and I don’t know if it was a profit or a loss. Anyway, Sai Wanjin, the owner of the auction house, must have made a profit.

Everyone sneaked out of the auction house and walked for a while. They bought some novel snacks for Xiao Ziyue and two little Taoist nuns. They also bought a few new clothes and rouge powder for Lu Xi, who had nine patches in the clothes. Although An Qian was a fool, she was the daughter of a merchant after all. She habitually inspected the special products sold by vendors on the ancient street of Jinli and recorded the purchase and shipment prices of various commodities so that Mengniang's troupe would have a reference when she went to the business.

------------

Just when the city of Chengdu was peaceful and everyone had fun.

A sand cavalry unit with more than 2,000 people had just bypassed the Emei Mountain Oasis stationed by Emei from the west and ran towards the north.

This sand cavalry unit is the elite of the Yunnan-Guizhou rebels. Every soldier has a strong and courageous face that has been sharpened by the formation. The general who led the army was two generals, one man and one woman.

The man's name is Su Muran, who is thirty years old this year. He is wearing black iron armor and carrying a steel gun two feet long. The iron armor is covered with a yellow cloak, making him look less conspicuous in the desert.

The woman's name is Ruan Muxing. She is nineteen years old this year. She is in her youth. She does not wear armor or carry weapons like iron spears. She is wearing ordinary women's clothes and a yellow cloak that protects sand on the outside. She doesn't look like a general, but rather a civil servant.

"Huh, I finally bypassed Mount Emei!" Ruan Muxing breathed a long sigh and said, "I'm afraid that someone will be discovered here. Although we are a large army and will not lose to a group of female Taoist nuns of the Emei Sect, if we are entangled, we will have a headache."

Su Muran snorted coldly: "What's the matter with Emei Sect that we are afraid of? One thousand soldiers can use combat formation skills. More than two thousand soldiers here can form two combat formations. Even if the Emei Sect sends out several fourth-level masters, we can also easily defeat them with combat formation skills."

"Do you think you are the only one who knows formation skills?" Ruan Mu Xing shook his head and said, "Have you heard of the Emei Sect's 'Xuannun Extermination Sword Formation'? A super sword formation composed of 7,799 'Sword Taoists' and seven 'Palm Sword Real People', it is said that its power is not below the thousand-level military formation, and its combat power is outstanding, which is extraordinary. If we really take the lead with the Emei Sect, even with the advantage of the number of people in the two military formations, we will be greatly damaged if we win in the end."

"Uh!" Su Muran was stunned.

"In short, our target is not Mount Emei, there is no need to entangle here." Ruan Mu Xing raised his hand, pointed to the far north, and said in a deep voice: "If we want to attack Chengdu in a surprise attack, we cannot cause any trouble on the road. We must suddenly appear in the hinterland of the enemy quietly. If we fight with the Emei Sect here, the target will be exposed, and layers of defense networks will surely be gathered in the road ahead."

Su Muran said, "What the military advisor said is reasonable. I don't know anything, and I talk nonsense makes the military advisor laugh. But... Mr. Military advisor, can we really capture the Chengdu Oasis with just two thousand people? Why do I think this is an impossible task?"

"Hahaha!" Ruan Mu Xing laughed: "It's really a rude man. Forget it, since we have bypassed the most troublesome Mount Emei, our goal is close to us, so it's okay for me to tell you my real destination."

She expanded a map of Sichuan and pointed to the Chengdu Oasis on the map and said, "The city wall of this city is ten meters high and ten meters thick, which cannot be shaken by manpower. A bronze cannon is installed every few meters on the city wall. A red-clothed cannon is set up between the several cannons. It is difficult to attack. It is the most famous city in Sichuan. It is definitely not something that we two thousand people can capture."

"But...there is a huge drawback in this city."

Ruan Muxing's fingers began to move northwest from the Chengdu Oasis, and finally stopped on a small oasis city...

"Dujiangyan?" Su Muran said in a strange way: "Is it a disadvantage of Chengdu?"

"That's right!" Ruan Mu Xing smiled and said, "Dujiangyan Shali Project, it diverted the quicksand in the Minjiang River and brought the quicksand into the Tuojiang River. Without it, the quicksand would ravage the Chengdu Plain and destroy all the fertile fields under Chengdu City..."

"I understand." Su Muran said excitedly: "We are feinting attacking Chengdu to restrain the enemy, but in fact we will divide our troops to attack Dujiangyan, blow up Dujiangyan Shali project, and let the quicksand of the Minjiang River flood Chengdu oasis... and you can punch Sichuan's heartland hard. In this way, the enemy's logistics supply will be in trouble, morale will be greatly affected, and the main battlefield of Luzhou can gain the upper hand."

"That's right, you're not completely a rude man." Ruan Mu Xing smiled and said, "It's good if you understand. Don't cause trouble along the way. Bypass all the oasis that may be intercepted. We must appear directly under Chengdu City like a heavenly soldier, scaring them. Then we can easily attack Dujiangyan and attack them with a lot of decay."

Su Muran couldn't help but look down on his military advisor.

"By the way, Lao Su!" Ruan Mu Xing suddenly said: "When our plan is successful and the Dujiangyan is blown up, the imperial army will launch a crazy revenge operation. At that time, oasis from all directions will send troops to intercept us. Maybe we will be surrounded by tens of thousands of troops on the way to retreat... In this battle... regardless of success or failure, we may not be able to go back, you must be mentally prepared."
