Chapter 2123 Borrowing Troops3

Xu You saw that Ning Ji was not interested in praising the new fire kang, so he praised the Ning family's seven-shot repeating crossbow.

"The seven-shot repeating crossbow is really easy to use and has excellent accuracy. And as long as you maintain it according to what Mr. said, the mechanism inside the repeating crossbow will not jam. It is easier to use than those repeating crossbows that have been made for decades. I I couldn't believe it for a few times. The seven-shot repeating crossbow was designed by Mr. in his spare time, and it was only made two years ago." Xu You sincerely praised it and thought the seven-shot repeating crossbow was excellent.

But Ning Ji's face paled after hearing this, he picked up the wine bottle, took a sip of wine, and said with a faint smile: "The Ning family started out by making ordnance. The Ning family's direct descendants all learned how to make ordnance from childhood. A certain person has learned how to make ordnance for decades. The repeating crossbow will naturally have no jamming problem."

In his last life, this seven-shot repeating crossbow had been used for more than ten years, and Gu Jinli had improved it more than ten times. Naturally, there would be no more problems with the machine being stuck, the crossbow arrows not being able to fire, or the crossbow losing its accuracy.

Xu You looked at Ning Ji's face, why was it still light?

Could it be that Ning Ji is really an outsider who has developed extraordinary skills that are regarded as nothing no matter how high they are?

Xu You saw that Ning Ji was not interested in praising him, so he was talking about the eldest son of the Ning family: "Sir, I haven't seen the eldest son Ning for several years. It's a rare visit this time. Otherwise, I will take the eldest son of the Ning family." Come here and have a reunion dinner with your husband?"

Ning Ji has been here for a few days, but he has never seen Mr. Ning, which makes Xu You feel very strange.

Ning Ji refused: "No, I came here on business this time, and my eldest nephew also has errands to run, so there is no need to meet. There will be many opportunities in the future."

Xu You smiled when he heard the word "business"... He had just received news that Ning Ji came here to borrow troops and food.

Hehe, wasn't it crazy last year? They begged and begged again and again but failed to see anyone. This year they came to borrow troops and food. How could he, Xu You, borrow so easily?

Just wait, if you dont break your backbone, kneel down and beg for mercy, you cant even hope to borrow a grain of grain or a soldier!

But in terms of scheming, Ning Ji was much better than Xu You. He didn't ask Xu You, he only asked for cooperation, and finally said: "We know that Mr. Hou also has difficulties here, so we can borrow if we can. If we really can't, forget it." "

"Forget it?" Xu You was shocked: "If we don't have food and soldiers, how can we capture half of Dongqing's land?"

Ning Ji corrected him: "Master Hou is wrong. Those lands are not Dongqing's, but the dowry of Princess Mingsheng of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Now that Dongqing has colluded with the Rong people, and the northwest has almost been lost, we naturally have to take Princess Mingsheng's dowry. If we want to come back, Dongqing cant stab us in the back, lets leave our fertile land to them.

Xu You was impressed by what he said.

This Ning Ji, it would be a pity not to be the chief official of the Ministry of Rites.

but

Are Da Yinzhou and other places really from Da Zhou? Xu You asked.

Ning Ji nodded and said with a slight smile: "Of course it belongs to the Great Zhou Dynasty. At that time, it was Dayin County. It was named after the silver mines and was under the jurisdiction of the county guard."

But he sneered in his heart and cursed secretly: The nouveau riche are the nouveau riche. They dont even know this and still want to be the emperor. Its really ridiculous!

Ning Ji is a noble person and only admires people he admires. When it comes to Xu You, he just deals with them without any real regard or fear.

Just because he knew that the Xu family would end up being nothing more than a pile of rotten meat that was trampled under people's feet and would not be able to survive for long.

However, many things are different in this life. After Ning Ji was frightened, he became cautious. Before Xu You died and the Xu family fell, he would still give Xu You some face.

So he praised Xu You and Xu Liu a lot, and also gave Xu Liu an eight-shot repeating crossbow.

Xu You was shocked when he looked at the eight-shot repeating crossbow in the box... Not only did this repeating crossbow have eight shots, it was also made very delicately and could be set up by one person.

He immediately picked up the repeating crossbow and pulled the trigger.

Swish swish!

The small crossbow arrow with special characteristics was shot out and hit the sand table wall made of blue bricks. The force was so strong that it penetrated the green bricks.

"Okay, okay, it's another powerful weapon. Mr. Ning is so polite." Xu You was very happy and praised the eight-shot repeating crossbow. Ning Ji said generously: "The eight-shot repeating crossbow was not presented to His Majesty, and the Ning family has not told any outsiders. If the Marquis likes it, he can give the eight-shot repeating crossbow the name of the Xu family."

"Seriously?" Xu You was extremely excited. If word spreads about the Xu family's eight-shot repeating crossbow, they will definitely gain a good reputation.

To become a great business, one must have a good reputation. Without a good reputation, how can one attract capable people from all walks of life to serve him, and how can one win over people's hearts?

Ke Xuyou doesnt know that some good names are not given to you and you can just accept them.

Ning Ji stole the ordnance made by Gu Jinli in his previous life because the Ning family started out as an ordnance maker and no one would question any sharp weapon they made. But did the Xu family make ordnance? ,

You dare to have a good reputation even if you have never done it before, and you are not afraid of being embarrassed in the end!

"In that case, I would like to thank you very much." Xu You felt that Ning Ji was begging him to give food to others by sending him the eight-shot repeating crossbow. Too hasty."

Ning Ji smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Marquis, there's no need to be too embarrassed."

But he really didn't want to deal with idiots like Xu You, so he said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in the camp to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with the Marquis. I have to go find Mr. Zhong."

Without waiting for Xu You to ask, he explained himself: "The uncle of the Zhong family is your majesty's confidant. He has a higher status in your majesty's heart than Ming Cong. He wants to be retained to take over the household department. Let's win over the Zhong family. It will be much easier to do things.

After hearing this, Xu You naturally agreed.

However, he asked about Ning Jis relationship with Qin Sanlang: Are you sir?

Ning Ji shook his head: "No, I met Qin Sanlang because of Master Lei Wu. Their family made seasonings and spices. This business is good, and it is very profitable in Dayong and the desert countries. For the sake of business, there have always been We have been in contact... As for a deeper relationship, such as between a certain person and the Marquis, Qin Sanlang is not worthy of his current status."

After saying this, he said in his heart: Dont blame me, Third Master, my subordinates said this to protect you.

Xu You knew that Mr. Lei Wu and Jiang Dahu from Tianfu County were close brothers. He also knew that the Qin Gu Luotian family relied on Jiang Dahu to get in touch with Mr. Lei and start business. After listening to Ning Ji's words, he didn't No doubt at all, but relieved.

"Brother Yu is in Duchonggou. It's not very safe as he's not close to the bandits. Can I call him back to the camp to meet my husband?" Xu You said kindly.

Ning Ji refused: "No, he has been fond of martial arts since he was a child. He wants to be a general and make achievements. If we call him back and the soldiers raid in the Mid-Autumn Festival, he will lose the chance to make achievements. I will be angry."

He added: "This kind of dandy has the worst temper. I'll work hard to avoid irritating him and ruining our relationship."

Xu You agreed and sent Ning Ji away to invite Mr. Qianshan to discuss matters.

The next day, Ning Ji rode to Duchonggou.

I met Zhong Yu and Qin Sanlang.

This meeting place was chosen by Qin Sanlang.

Qin Sanlang said that Du Chonggou was Jiang Wankang's place, and it was difficult for the Xu family's dead men to come in. They chose to meet here because it was safe.

Zhong Yu has a good relationship with Qin Sanlang, and he is a soldier under Qin Sanlang. Ning Ji came to Zhong Yu, bumped into Qin Sanlang and said a few words, and no one would suspect him.

However, Ning Ji was shocked when he saw Qin Sanlang again.

Compared to a few years ago, Qin Sanlang is much taller, his face is much more resolute, and his aura is more and more intimidating.
