Chapter 182
When Yue Zhuoqun walked out of the attic, there was a peaceful atmosphere outside. Of course, it was just a warm atmosphere.
Xianxian pulled Shang Xiuxun's arm, with a friendly smile on her face: "Sister Shang, don't be angry with Xianxian, it was all a misunderstanding~"
People who didn't know saw this scene and mistakenly thought she was Shang Xiuxun's best friend!
Unfortunately, no matter how she said soft words, Shang Xiuxun always had a cold face, her eyebrows trembled, and she pulled her arms out.
Yue Zhuoqun was speechless when he saw this scene.
This little witch of Yinkui Sect was indeed thoughtful. After knowing his attitude towards Shang Xiuxun, she immediately started to make up with the other party.
"Okay, stop bothering me."
Shang Xiuxun then broke away from Qianqian as if he had been pardoned, and asked anxiously: "My father... How is the old man?"
"He's alive, but his injuries haven't fully recovered. You can go in and see him."
Shang Xiuxun said nothing and hurried into the attic.
Qianqian came to Yue Zhuoqun's side excitedly, put her hands behind her back, and raised her smooth chin: "Brother Shengjun, you won't be angry with Qianqian, right!"
"Humph! You're causing me trouble, what do you think!"
"I forced you to tell me the location of Yang Gong's treasure house because I want to help Brother Shengjun! Yang Su has stored a lot of treasures and weapons and armor in the treasure house. After opening the treasure house, these will all be given to you."
"Don't think I don't know that I'm trying to get the evil emperor's relics for your master, and you still say you're helping me."
"Hehe, help both of them, without delaying either." Qianqian laughed, not feeling embarrassed at all.
It was obviously the first time she met Yue Zhuoqun, but she didn't show any strangeness.
Even Yue Zhuoqun couldn't tell whether she was acting or was sincere.
However, such an episode was not a bad thing.
She saved Lu Miaozi's life and helped him repair the hidden injuries in his body. Not only did he not worry about his life, but his life span was also extended a lot.
Even after this conflict, the two fathers and daughters showed their true feelings and the misunderstanding was resolved.
No matter how you look at it, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, and it can be regarded as a favor.
Even if Shang Xiuxun has hatred in his heart, it will only be directed at Qianqian and Yinkui Sect, and will not be grafted on him.
The transaction between Wagang and Pegasus Ranch will not only not be affected, but will even be smoother.
Half an hour later, Shang Xiuxun walked out of the attic with a look of relief on his face, and even the look he gave Yue Zhuoqun was much closer.
She bowed and said, "Thank you, General Yue, for helping the old man to heal his hidden injury. Xiuxun will remember this kindness in her heart."
"You are too kind, Master. It's just a small favor."
"Please come back to the ranch with Xiuxun to discuss in detail." Shang Xiuxun smiled slightly and extended her hand to invite her. As for Kankan and the others, she didn't even look at them.
"That's exactly what I meant!"
Yue Zhuoqun nodded and walked towards Pegasus Ranch with her.
Kankan followed Yue Zhuoqun like a little follower, not caring whether Shang Xiuxun welcomed him or not.
After passing through the corridor, they soon returned to the palace of Pegasus Ranch.
Liu Zongdao and others were extremely anxious. Seeing Shang Xiuxun return safely, they breathed a sigh of relief and went forward to greet her with a happy face:
"Master, you are finally back... huh? Witch!"
Halfway through the words, his mood immediately darkened, and he glared at the man behind Yue Zhuoqun fiercely.
"Okay, it's all a misunderstanding, don't worry about it anymore."
Shang Xiuxun waved his hand: "Go prepare the banquet, I want to thank General Yue."
Liu Zongdao and others didn't know what happened in the middle, but the master said it, so they could only obey.
The banquet was prepared, Yue Zhuoqun took the seat of honor, and Man Man also shamelessly participated.
Shang Xiuxun was dissatisfied but had no way to do it. This was up to her.
Pick up the wine glass and thank Yue Zhuoqun again.
"Owner, you don't have to be so polite. After all, Qianqian is working for me. I will do my best to make up for the trouble she caused."
"Make up for it, but you have cured the old man's hidden injury and allowed him to live a few more years. This favor can never be offset.
If you need help in the future, just tell Xiuxun."
"There is one thing. I want to buy a batch of high-quality war horses from Pegasus Ranch."
"Pegasus Ranch is in the war horse business. This is a fair trade and not a favor." Shang Xiuxun smiled cheerfully, with a bright face: "I wonder how much Yue wants to buy?"
"At least 10,000, the more the better."
"High-quality war horses are not cheap!" Shang Xiuxun's eyes flashed with surprise.
Buying 10,000 high-quality war horses in one go is not a small amount.
In today's world, except for the four major families, I am afraid that no other force has such financial resources, not even Du Fuwei and Dou Jiande.
Even if Wagang occupied Xingyang, it would not have the financial resources to do so.
After all, it would be difficult to raise aTo support an army, military pay, food, and weapons are all huge expenses. No one dares to spend all their financial resources on buying horses.
Yue Zhuoqun smiled confidently: "Silver is not a problem."
Now it is different from the Yitian world. Wagang's financial resources are not enough, and he can also bring gold and silver from the other three worlds through the space gate.
The system space of 30 cubic meters, the treasure transported in one trip is enough to support Wagang for a long time.
Shang Xiuxun nodded slightly. Since Yue Zhuoqun has this confidence, she doesn't need to say more.
"The owner of the field has enough war horses, haven't you ever thought about creating a big business? With your geographical location, as long as you raise an army, you can guard the Yangtze River and Han River in a short time. Going down the river, you can take the two lakes, going upstream and occupying Hanzhong and Bashu, which is indeed an advantageous position."
Hanzhong is a grain-producing land; Bashu is a land of abundance; Hunan is rich in water and soil, and the rice yield is also terrifying.
Occupy any area and develop for two years, and you can have strong soldiers and horses.
"The Pegasus Ranch has an ancestral motto that we only do business, never participate in the struggles of the underworld or the court, and have no interest in dominating the world."
"This concept was fine before, but it may not be a good thing now."
"Where does Yue Shuai come from?"
"The world is in chaos, and the ranch can't stay out of it."
"You fight for your world, and we do our business, and we don't interfere with each other. Even if someone wants to take over the Pegasus Ranch, we are not vegetarians!"
"Hehe, Sister Shang's words may not be true!" The silent Kan Kan suddenly interrupted.
This made Shang Xiuxun blush, after all, she had just suffered a great loss at the hands of the other party.
It's not a vegetarian evaluation, it's indeed a bit self-boasting.
"Sister Shang has so many war horses, which is a great asset to all separatist forces. Other leaders may not be as reasonable as our brother Shengjun and trade with you fairly. Not to mention the distant ones, the four major bandits Cao, Mao, Fang, and Xiang who crisscross the Yangtze River have been eyeing it covetously and have always intended to annex Pegasus Ranch."
The Yinkui Sect has spies and traitors in many forces, and is very clear about the situation in the martial arts world.
Yue Zhuoqun looked at Wan Wan with appreciation: "Although the four major bandits are not weak, it is not easy to annex Pegasus Ranch. But don't forget Xiao Xian in Jiangling, he is not easy to deal with."
Xiao Xian is still the second in command of the Baling Gang. On the surface, he collects beauties for Yang Guang, but secretly does the business of human trafficking. There is also a man named Xiang Yushan in the gang. With the financial resources of his family, he helps the Baling Gang to open brothels and gambling houses all over the world to collect information.
This makes the Baling Gang extremely powerful.
After a while, the leader of the Baling Gang will die, and Xiao Xin, who has complete control over the gang, will be able to show his strength and become one of the princes at the end of the Sui Dynasty.
With Xiao Xin's ambition and means, he will never let go of the Pegasus Ranch, a natural warhorse base.
Shang Xiuxun's idea of being a businessman and not participating in the world's struggle is completely unrealistic.
